How to restrict "insert new data source" in Analysis, edition for Microsoft Office report

Hi Experts,
There is a requirement in my current project: when an end user access a Analysis, edition for Office Report from BI platform, they can view and refresh the report. But users should not be able to add new data source in that Analysis Report. As per my understanding, that means "insert data source" button should remain disable for the user.
I have check all available access levels from CMC, but cannot find any. It will be great if you let know correct access level in CMC for the same.
Any comments/recommendation will be appreciated.
I am using BOXI4.1 SP3 version with Microsoft Office 2013.
Thanks in advance.

The answer from our account manager is that there is only one license model for AO - which means every user is able to refresh, navigate, use planning functions and add source data (whith the standard license). Adding a DS is not really more then navigation because you can build a Query with all key figures and characteristics of a cube which gives you flexibility. That makes sense because there are no authority checks installed from SAP to avoid this (maybe this is different in combination with HANA and workspaces) .
Futhermore SAP has no possibility to measure how many users are doing which functions instead of recording every action of every user. But where should they do it? You could use it with BO or with Netweaver or in mixed Environments. The BO license check is done on BO platform and there you have no possibility to create new users which you need for connection (I'm not sure how this is monitored in a pure BW Environment without BO).
Furterhmore another possibility to add new data is using vba. You don't really need the buttons from the menu.

New computer.. Product key for Microsoft Office?

I recently purchase a new notebook assuming Microsoft Office would be installed and ready to use. It is installed but asks for a product key to use. I did not receive a product key with any of the paper work for the computer. Is this program not included already, or do I need to buy the program?

There is no such thing as a trial anymore so that is incorrect. IT has Word started on it which allows you to use basic functions of word and excel. You don't get an actual code as it is just the basic use of it, not like a full version.

How to add a new data source

Hi,
Can anyone help, I need to add a new oracle database connection between OBIEE and the database. How can I acheive this, do I need to set an ODBC connection or are there any underlying configuration files on the server that need to be updated?
Thanks

Hi,
If you are importing from some new database then you need to create DSN for that db and import tables into rpd.Open rpd in online mode file->Import from Database->select DSN->Import from Database,else if it is just to import tables from same database no need to create any DSN.

Created new data source, does not appear in the list

Hi I created a new data source using information provided in http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/apis/pdstutorial/textPDS/PDS_1.html. But the new data source I created does not appear in the wizard. Could some body give me a clue? Can somebody point me to more detailed documentation on how to integrate a new data source into Reports Builder?
thanks
Srinivas

Hi
I desperately need help to troubleshoot why my data source is not appearing in the list eventhough I feel I have done things as per the tutorial. From reading the tutotial I am not clear -
- If specifying an icon is mandatory. If I don't specify an icon my datasource should still appear right?..without an icon?
- It is mandatory to implement the editor. I have hard coded things because I don't foresee any interaction by a user with the data source. There is just one column which WILL always appear if this DS is chosen.
- Finally in the integration instructions(http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/apis/pdstutorial/textPDS/PDS_5.html) they mention that the classes have to be compiled with "report build" , is that a tool?
thanks

Refresh jTable after inserting new data into the Database

Hey all,
I'm using Netbeans 6.5 to create a Desktop Application which is connected to a Java DB (Derby).
The first simple steps were all very successfull:
Create the jTable and bind it to the Database => everything works fine. When the application starts it correctly shows all data from the database.
The problem starts when I try to insert new data to the database.
For that reason I've created textfields and a button "Save". When I press the button it successfully inserts the data to the database but they are not displayed in the jTable (when the application starts they are all there, they are not updated at runtime) . I've tried table.invalidate() and table.repaint() but they just don't work.
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated. But please have in mind that most of the code is Netbeans-generated and most of it not editable.
Many thanks in advance.
George

Once again you are right my friend. I jumped to conclusion way too fast, when I shouldn't. (Give me a break, I've been busting my head with this well over a week). The response I saw when I did that was that indeed a line is added to the jTable. Because I falsly set the index of the object to be added to be second to last the row appeared on the table, what I didn't see at the time was that the last one disappeared. Hmm...
A new adventure begins...
So after a few hours of messing around with it here are my observations:
1) It was not an observable list. When I add the new element with employeesList.add(newEmp); , the table gets notified but a get a bunch of exceptions:

... and a lot morewhich from my poor understanding means that the jTable succesfully notices the change but it is not able (??) to adjust to the new change. What is more interesting is that when I plainly add the element to the end of the list (without an idex that is), a blank row appears at the end of my Table. The weird thing is that I've bound the table to some text fields below it, and when I select that empty row all the data appear correctly to the text fields.
I tried going through:
                org.jdesktop.observablecollections.ObservableCollections.observableList(employeesList).add(newEmp);as well as
                help = org.jdesktop.observablecollections.ObservableCollections.observableListHelper(employeesList);
                help.getObservableList().add(newEmp);
                help.fireElementChanged(employeesList.lastIndexOf(newEmp));and
                obsemployeesList = org.jdesktop.observablecollections.ObservableCollections.observableList(employeesList);
                obsemployeesList.add(newEmp);and I still get the same results (both the exeptions and the mysterious empty row at the end of the table
So, I'm again in terrible need of your advice. I can't thank you enough for the effort you put into this.
Best regards,
George

When I insert new data on an existing graph, the graph deletes

When I insert new data on an existing graph (for example, just adding a new year of data) and press insert, it just deletes the graph entirely. My only option is to recreate the entire graph which is frustrating because I lose its format and colors. Any suggestions?

Here I opened the existing chart, with the old data. I need to remove the oldest year and add a new year. Which I do below:
When I press the check mark, or enter, the graph details all delete.

How to register 10g ODBC driver list in the Create New Data Source window

Hi
I've checked the dll for the odbc is in the correct home path. However, i don't see the list of the driver when i try to create a new data source. Is there a way besides reinstall the client again.
Thanks
Rgds
Ung

Hi Joe,
According to your description, after you run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe, Access driver is not displayed when you expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>ODBC>ODBCINST.INI node.
The issue is caused by wrong path of odbccad32, please make sure that you are using Administrator account or you have administrative privileges, then refer to the following steps:
Go to Control Panel.
Click Administrative Tools.
Right-click Data Sources(ODBC) to open Properties dialog box.
In Target text box, type %windir%\syswow64\odbcad32.exe
In Start in text box, type %windir%\syswow64, then click OK to save the settings.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Trains Stops and Insert new data using invokeAction!?

Hi! I am using Train element to insert data in some tables. When I open first Train Step I use invokeAction to call CreateInsert operation and could insert new data in table1. Then I go to Train Step 2 and using invokeAction insert data in table2 and so on.
I have two questions:
1. When I go back to previous Train Step using "Back" button then invokeAction again calls CreateInsert operation, but I don't need it. It is possible to call CreateInsert operation using invokeAction ONLY if user goes forward by pressing "Next" button in Train element? If it is possible then What I need to change in my code?
invokeAction source:
<invokeAction Binds="CreateInsert" id="insert_mode"
RefreshCondition="${!requestContext.postback and empty bindings.exceptionsList}"
Refresh="prepareModel"/>2. It is possible to DISABLE some Train Stopas. For example, I want to disable first Train Stop for user when he go to next steps, so that user can't anymore go back to first Train Stop.
Hope for Your answers, best regards, Debuger!

Hi, Umesh! My use case is following: I am on first Train Stop and enter some data. Then I go to second Stop and enter some data and so on. When I go to first, second etc. Train stops I use invokeAcrion to call CreateInsert. I need to call only this operation when I press next button. When I press Back button I do not need to call Create Insert action. Hope You understand me.
So, as I understand, i need to create method which indicates variable value based which button is pressed. But I don't understand how I can say, variable x=nextbuttonpressed or x=backbuttonpressed based on which button I realy press. And do not understand also how to use this variable in invokeAction Refresh Condition?
Hope You can explain me that with steps to do in my case and can help with code?
Waiting for response, best regards, Debuger.

Hi,
i had the same problem. First we figured out, that the Report Builder was working in the Root Site Collection of a Web Application but not in any other Site Collection of the WebApplication.
After that we took a look how the Report Builder is started. The Content Type got a Click Once Application as Template, but you can't open the URL in the Browser neither the referenced file can be found in the Feature folder on the SharePoint Server. Turns
out SharePoint does some crazy http redirection and that this doesn't work on Site Collections which are not at the root. At least if you installed Reporting Services Add In Service Pack 1.
Fun Fact: If you start the Report Builder on the Root Site Collection you can create a Report which works on any Site Collection. Its just the launch if the Report Builder which is broken.
Our Solution was the SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 Cumulative Update 8 which fixed the Problem.
You can request a download here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2917531
Select the "2012_SP1_RSShrPnt_CU8_2917531_11_0_3401_x64" Fix and install it on every SharePoint Server in your Farm.

New Data Source

I moved my report data to a new SQL server and on established reports I applied a new datasource. The underlying scripts remained the same. When I try to run the reports it is asking for the credentials I supplied to access the database.
I'm not sure why it is doing this.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Please check how your data source connection is configured for the report @Data sources tab on your report. you might have a similar one like this below. Change it to other options as how you need them and that should work.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Creating new Data Source Error - Database connection Failed

Successfully installed and configured 11.1.1.3.0. Planning and Essbase dev.
Went to Workspace > Administer > Classing Planning Administration > Manage Data Sources > Create Data Source.

SQL server 2005 is on the same physical server.
The diagnostic tool shows database connection passed for planning. A new database was created for the new application.
The server event viewer shows these errors.
"Login failed for user 'xxx-hyperion'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection."
Group Policy Error "The client-side extension could not apply computer policy settings for 'Default Domain Policy {xxx}' because it failed with error code '0x80070003 The system cannot find the path specified.' See trace file for more details. "
The Group Policy client-side extension Group Policy Services failed to execute. Please look for any errors reported earlier by that extension.
Any help is appreciated.

Datasource for the application.
I have created a sql db for this planning application (my datasource). See my first message for more details.
When you create a new planning application, you need to associate it with a data source. Since this is a new install, I don't have any data sources available yet.
So, "To create, edit or delete data sources, click Manage Data Source."
This page lets you validate your connection to the database and essbase server. My essbase server connection validates! The database connection does not validate after I enter all the relevant information.

So it does not let me create a data source for my new planning application, so I cannot create a new planning application.

How can I manage my data sources better?

I'm learning WebLogic and my installation already has a data source configured to point to one of our eight databases. As we move through different phases of development, I need to point to a different database and changing it in WL is cumbersome. What I would like is to have all eight databases added as eight sources and enable only one at a time depending on our needs. I'd like to know:
1) How does WebLogic know which data source to use for my .ear?
2) With more than one data source, how do I ensure that only the one I want is used by my ear?
Many thanks,
TenLeftFingers

It depends a bit on what you want to do (what you mean by "manage"), but perhaps this will help:

How to Restrict Single Delivery Date for PO with Multiple Line Items

Dear Experts,
How to Restrict Single Delivery Date for PO with Multiple Line Items.
System needs to through Error Message if User Inputs Different Delivery Dates for PO with Multiple Line Items in ME21N Tcode.
Can we achive this by Some Enhancement in SAP or Not ???
If so how to do it.
Any Inputs is highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Selvakumar. M

Hi Selvakumar,
we can resrict the PO to have a single delivery date in all the line items by means of giving a error message or overwiting the delivery date keyed/determined in the line item.
You can use the BADI -> ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. In which you need to implement the method PROCESS_SCHEDULE.
(for technical aid - This method will be called for each and every PO line item, From the imporing parameter im_schedule we can get all the details of current PO line, even we can change the data in the current PO line. )

Madhu.
