How to link to a BI publisher report in a dashboard

I'm trying to link a BIP PDF report in a dashboard but I'm being prompted to login to BIP.
I have SSO setup so that if I click on more products -> BI publisher it takes me right into BI Publisher. it uses url
https://xxx:7777/analytics/saw.dll?AdvancedReports&_scid=S3p7sdfasdM
which then redirects to
https://xxx:7777/xmlpserver/servlet/report
If I try to link a report in the dashboard I use the url
https://xxx:7777/xmlpserver/servlet/report/Plans/Plans.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=0&_xdo=%2FRecovery_Plans%2FPlans.xdo&PROJECT_CODE=200000&_xt=2000000&_xf=pdf&_xmode=4
when I use this link it goes to the BI publisher login page. If I enter the username and password it takes me to the report.
If I completely logout and try again this time with a twist it works.
If I click on more products -> BI publisher ... it takes me to BI publisher. then if I click back and then try the same url that did not work in the previous example it works this time.
I guess my thought is that we are not using the right URL to call a report from inside BIEE dashboard and not be prompted for a login.
Thanks for your help.

You have to use the BI Publisher report object in a dashboard. You have then a link option.
You will then remark that the link call a javascript object to made use of the SSO capabilities.
Cheers

How i can ristrict my BI Publisher report in Dashboards.

Dear All,
How i can ristrict my BI Publisher report in Dashboards.
I have different branches in my report .
I have to send my report split by branches and have to give security to that branch user.
Is it posible in BIP or i have to do in Data Base Level.
I need more information on dashboards
Regards
Subbu..

Hi Subbu,
Apology for delay in reading your post.
Your needs and their solution are,
'split by branches ' - use bursting capability of BI Publisher
'have to give security to that branch user' - make out the report in specific folder and dashboard in BI Dashboard. Then give role based and grouped access to users to this Dashboard. For this navigate in BI Application to Settings > Admin > Manage Presentation Catalog. here you can setup dashboard specific security.
Cheers

How can we display the list of Report Names in Dashboard Prompt?

How can we display the list of Report Names in Dashboard Prompt?

Hi,
No its not possible to display list of reports in dashboard prompts.
Can do this using SQl results in prompt(we write query checking out report names manualy),but its not easy thing if you are having many report names to be displayed.
Assign points and close your threads if answered.

How run the run the BI Publisher report for current/active/selected record

Hi,
I have one requirement to generate a BI Publisher report in Siebel, which will run on SR's List view. Report should fetch the active SR and its audit trial entities. I know this was achieved easily using Actuate (simply setting "current Recrod only" to true), but I need how to achieve this in BI publisher.
This report we are creating is in Siebel-BI Publisher integrated environment, not connecting to database. Can body give share your valuble inputs.
Thanks,
Ravi

In my experience with Siebel 8.1.1 and BI Publisher 10.1.3.4.0 when you generate a report from a Siebel View the report will show all data visible on the view. If you wish to have only a few particular records in the report you must query for them first in Siebel then generate the report again. There is useful article describing how to generate the report for the current record but it does require some config on the applet.

How to print output of XML Publisher report in different trays of a printer

Hi All,
I have a requirement in XML Publisher Report. I need to print all pages other than last one in one tray of a printer and the last page has to be printed in another tray of the same printer.
Can anyone help me out...
Thank You..

I do not think it is possible to send all the pages to one tray and send only the last page to a different tray. However, you may review the following notes:

Hi,
Please follow the below function modules and the paramters for reading archived data:
CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_OPEN_FOR_READ'
EXPORTING
    OBJECT                   = archiving object name
IMPORTING
   ARCHIVE_HANDLE           = archive read handle
Then in the loop(DO-ENDDO), use this FM:
DO.
CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_GET_NEXT_OBJECT'
       EXPORTING
            archive_handle          = archive read handle
Then records from the data objects using this FM:
CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_GET_TABLE'
       EXPORTING
            archive_handle        = archive read handle
            record_structure      = 'TABLENAME'
            all_records_of_object = 'X'
            automatic_conversion = 'X'
       TABLES
            table                 = internal table for which you want to retrieve records.
ENDDO.
Then close the archive file using this FM:
CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_CLOSE_FILE'
     EXPORTING
          archive_handle = archive read handle
This will help u in reading archived data from archive file.
may give some idea also on how to code the read prgram.

BI publisher report on OBIEE dashboard in a particular format

Hi All ,
We have a situation wherer we need to show a BI Publisher report on the OBIEE dashboard .
The Dashboard has a prompt on 'Year' and 'Quarter'.The issue we are facing is ,based on the prompt value the report column header should also change.
e.g :
Year=2003 , Quarter=3
It should give us the revenue for different Products for last four quarter :
Product----------------------2003 Q3---------2002 Q4--------2002 Q3--------2002 Q2---------20002 Q1
Airconditioner----------------100----------------200----------------300--------------400-----------------234
Refrigerator-------------------145----------------208----------------350--------------467-----------------264
Example 2 :
Year=2004 , Quarter=4
It should give us the revenue for different Products for last four quarter :
Product----------------------2004 Q4---------2004 Q3--------2004 Q3--------2004 Q1---------2003 Q4
Airconditioner----------------100----------------200----------------300--------------400-----------------234
Refrigerator-------------------145----------------208----------------350--------------467-----------------264
How can we acheive this column header.
Please advice.
Thanks!!

Hi,
based on the prompt value the report column header should also change. You want to change the value of the column heading dynamically based on prompt.You will get this by using the Presentation variable.So,you have to integrate both the bi publisher+rpd.

Drilldowns in BI Publisher report embedded within dashboard

Have created a BI Publisher report in MS-Word, used hyperlinks for drilling down to the lowest level of detail.
When this report is embedded in dashboard the drilldown links are working correctly but they are opening as BI Publisher report (getting all the controls available OBI Publisher) not as dashboard page.
Is there any possiblity to drilldown in BI Publisher (viewed as HTML) using expand and collapse button like structure?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

BI Publisher report in OBIEE Dashboard

Hi,
I have a BI Publisher report that consists of:
-SQL Based Report
-Has 2 date parameters
This report is independent of any data source OBIEE, ie there is no repository for the data shown in the BI Publisher report.
I need to show this report in OBIEE dashboard with parameters. The report should get a parameter from a prompt / dynamic var.
I have understood according, there are two methods for achieving this:
1. Create a BI Publisher Report using BI Answers report as the data source wherein the BI Answers report would have one of the column’s filter clause as “is prompted”.
2. Create a BI Publisher Report using BI Answers/Database as data source. Create a parameter for the BI Publisher report and then match this parameter name while assigning the presentation variable for the dashboard prompt.
But I can not implement this, because my BI Publisher report is independent of any data source OBIEE.
There a way to solve this?
Thanks in advance!

When you create the parameter in Report, and embed that in BIPublisher report section, it will display the parameter in the embedded content itself.
see, if you can make use of this.

BI Publisher report in OBIEE Dashboards

Is there a way to generate the view the BI Publisher report automatically, currently it is asking the user to click the View Report button , "Click View Report to generate report"!
Appreciate your suggestions.
Regards
Bees

Have you selected 'Auto Run' option under Report -> Properties for the report? That should allow you to view output without clicking the view buttion. However, it will use the default parameters..
Is your report parameterized? If so, users will have to select/modify the parameter selection and click view to view the results..
Thanks!

How to - link from HTML Region to Report Column?

Dear Apex gurus,
Ok, I'll go straight to my question. I have a file upload page with Report Region (conditional) which comes up after file uploading process. Under Report I have a column to delete uploaded file (column has an image in link, target in application, item name: P2_DELETE_ID and value: #DOC_ID#). Basically the Report picks up just uploaded file ID and allows me to delete the file by having Hiden Page Item (P2_DELETE_ID) and Before Header Process:
BEGIN
DELETE FROM EBA_ASSET_ORDER_TEMP_DOCS
WHERE doc_id = :P2_DELETE_ID;
END;with condition: Value in Expression 1 is Not Null, and Expression 1 set to:
P2_DELETE_IDI have and another conditional Region (which is HTML) and it comes up after file uploading process as well. The region Source is:
<div id="FinalMessage"></div>
<br />
<div ><a href="javascript:confirmFileDelete(htmldb_delete_message,'f?p=&APP_ID.:2:&SESSION.:REMOVE_ID:::P2_DELETE_ID:#DOC_ID#');"><img >src="/i/delete.gif" style="position: relative; top: 1px;"/>Remove Uploaded File</a>
</div>where id="FinalMessage" - is the Sucess/Error message from JS
and .....href="javascript:confirmFileDelete....... - is my actual question. So, I am trying to hide my Report Region and show only my HTML region where I will be able using this (.....href....) link delete file from my table. I am able to dele file using report colum link but my .....href.... link dosnt want to delete my file, doen't even want to pick up file ID. Is there a way where I can link my .....href.... link to pull from Report Column????
Thanks

SELECT ID, P2_FILE_INPUT, BLOB_CONTENT, mime_type, CREATED_ON, DOC_SIZE, FILENAME
FROM apex_application_files

How can I delete a previously published app from my dashboard?

I have an app on my Windows Store dashboard that was in the store, but I unpublished it and I'll never publish the app again. How can I delete the app from my dashboard?
I've read answers on simular questions that an app can't be deleted, but I really want the app removed from my dashboard...

Hi Dennis,
It is not currently possible to delete an app from your dashboard once it has published to the Store. You can request this feature be added on our
UserVoice site. Thanks for the post!
