I want to pre-fill the report

I have some reports that are similar but are to be run according to sales rep. As I am in the process of doing this more automatically via email 'bursting', but in the meantime, they need these reports. So i am created one report for each rep. I would like to at least pre fill the rep name as report parameter and to use in the headings at the least. I put in one rep name as the default but it does prompt i would like this to run without the prompting having the name as it does. how do I do this?

hi Paul,
please see how to set up your reports readying them for a publication in this guide.
you need to create a dynamic recipients list as per page 6 (using another report which is essentially a list of emails, names, etc.) as well as looking at the Personalization section. the personalization is what you've done already with the rep name as the prompt.

  • Should we Use cache seeding iBots to pre-cache the reports ?

    Hi Everyone,
    We have requirement from client to improve the performance of some reports.We have a very old RPD and it is really huge so we don't want to do much on database side for performance tuning.
    Will it be a good idea to use cache seeding iBots to pre-cache the reports ?
    Most of the reports which are having performance issue are having some 5-6 columns and one key column is having some 30+ choices in column selector.So for each column selector view we will have to create a ibot which will again be a huge task.Can you pls guide how to approach this?
    Thanks in advance !

    30+choices in column selector will definitely have performance issues..bcz each and every time the report is going to refresh .have u enabled the cache some what better .Whats the issue of using existing report by enabling the cache seeding in ibots?

  • Pre-fill the filename in Fileupload UI

    Hi,
    I am unable to pre-fill the filename in fileupoad UI.
    When I launch the WD app, on the browser it get the following URL
    http://devai063.private.xxxx.com:8081/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zgi_file_upload?sap-language=EN
    at the end I add &filename=c:benefit.txt and hit enter,
    http://devai063.private.xxxx.com:8081/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/zgi_file_upload?sap-language=EN&filename=c:benefit.txt
    In WD window HANDLEDEFAULT method I am checking for the filename parameter if not empty I am setting the 'filename'  to the context of filename of fileuploadUI, but the app does not show the file name C:
    benefit.txt in the fileupload UI.
    I debugged the HANDLEDEFAULT and I can see the filename but somehow it is not setting to the filname for uploadfile UI.
    any advice is highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ram

    From the online help:
    Technical Browser Details Beyond the Control of WDA
    Due to browser restrictions that are unrelated to Web Dynpro ABAP, the previously entered data path might disappear when a FileUpload UI element is clicked. In newer versions of the browser, it is therefore impossible to enter the file name in the entry field. The field always remains empty. The selection of the file name is therefore only possible in new browser versions using the Browse... button. You cannot enter the file name manually (using the keyboard or the Copy and Paste functions) or by setting the file name from the back end (directly or using context binding). For more details, read the security-related information in Internet Explorer 6 about handling <input type=file>.

  • Pre-fill the OLAP cache for a query on Data change event  of infoprovider

    Hi Gurus,
    I have to pre-fill the OLAP cache for a query,which has bad performance.
    I read a doc 'Periodic Jobs and Tasks in SAP BW'
    which suggested sum steps to do this
    i hav created the setting for Bex broadcasting for scheduling job Execution with data change in info provider
    thereafter doc says  "an event has to be raised in the process chain which loads the data to this InfoProvider.When the process chain executes the process u201CTrigger Event Data Change (for Broadcaster)u201D, an event is raised to inform the Broadcaster that the query can be filled in the OLAP cache."
    how can this b done please provide with sum proper steps
    Answers are always appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi
    U need to create a process chain or use the existing process chain which you are using to load your current solution, just add event change process type in the process chian  and inside it add the info provider which are going to be affected.
    Once you are done with this go to the broadcaster  and  create new setting for that query...you will see the option for event data chainge in infoprovider just choose that  and create the settings.
    hope it helps

  • Obi 10g - pre run the reports by schedule?

    hi, experts,
    I have 2 questions on obi 10g
    1)
    the server cache is enabled.
    it is because the boss' time is expensive.
    he doesnt wanna wait for the refresh of reports
    are there any means to pre run the reports so that they can read the reports directly, no need to wait for the refresh time.
    2)
    If the a big set of data is already loaded.
    if users need to read the data from subset of the big set data, does OBIEE load subset data from the cache directly?
    or fire another sql to get the data again?
    thank you very much!

    Hi Stephen,
    the nqcmd.exe occupies all the cpu resources to display the resuilt on the command prompt.any ways to handle this case?If you have lot fo records this happens,If your doing this manually to re-build the cache write the SQL and add where condition so you can purge according to the where condition filter.....next again you change where condition and again purge it.
    2) run the nqcmd command to load the dataIn second point why are you loading date,you need to purge/delete data that is existing by using NQCMD command then chk NQquery.log
    I would say follow the steps exactly given in the blog mentioned above,then you get success (OR) in the same blog in comments there is user guide link check out
    If answered,award points.

  • Can I pre-fill the answer to a specific question? i.e. customer number for a customer questionnaire.

    I am building a customer questionnaire for our existing customers and, on the first page, have fields to type in the customer name and number (a unique number we assign to each customer.) 
    I would prefer to specify these myself when I send out the questionairre in case the customer doesn't know their customer number.  Theoretically, this would work with a query string or something similar so that each customer would get a unique URL to the form (i.e. formcentral.acrobat.com/myquestionnaire.html?custId=1234). 
    I'm intending to track and graph all of my results and don't want multiple submissions from the same customer to skew the findings.  I'm also setting up some mecahnisms to get back in touch with customers who fill out the questionnaire and answer any questions or concerns they expressed with it, which I obviously wouldn't be able to do if they didn't specify adequate identifying informaiton. 

    Hi,
    Currently we do not have a feature that allows you pre-fill in customer response data, or a way to prevent multiple submissions.  Preventing multiple submissions is something that is requested frequently, and we are looking at for a future release.  We do look to the ideas section to help guide us on what features we work on next.  I suggest you add your idea about pre-filling in customer resposne data to the ideas section, and also voting for the preventing of multiple responses idea.
    Thanks,

    why? to save time thats why, I have a zillion reports that I have to point at a new database periodically, (and I have some time on my hands here at the ranch) so I decided to automate the process. I made a windows application with Visual Studio that opens the rpt files as objects using the crystaldicisions object object model thingy, pulls out the table logoninfo.connectioninfo stuff and sets it to a new location THEN when I try to set the report.database.tables back to my new modified version it says that the tables property is a readonly thingy. I can open and save, but I cant modify the part I want to... how can I alter the serverName and databaseName properties such that I can save the result?
    thank you!
    much love.

    I was making a new copy of the database.tables and then editing it then trying to set the whole reportdocument.database.tables = to my modified version, it was readonly so it didnt work. when I just iterate through the tables and set the properties on each one, it works just fine.

  • I have a PDF form that I want to pre-fill multiple fields with example text that disappears onFocus. Is there a way to do this?

    Pretty much what my subject line says. My client wants example text in the fields of a PDF form that will disappear when the cursor enters the field. When I try this with show/hide layers, the layer becomes visible as soon as I enter form editing mode, and the action doesn't work properly. Any help? I was able to get it to work with a single field, but multiple fields with example text on multiple layers doesn't work for some reason.
    Thanks for any help.

    Hi Jeffrey ,
    You need to use a custom Format script for the field.

  • I have 2 different accounts at the same websites. Whenever I go to that website, one of my usernames prefills the UN field and I can't access the other account. I cannot overwrite my pre-filled username. Ideas?

    I have 2 different accounts at the same websites. Whenever I go to that website, one of my two user names (always the same one) pre-fills the user-name field and I can't access the other account. The website rightfully rejects my password. I cannot overwrite my pre-filled user-name because the second I hit enter to logon, the original user-name rewrites itself into it's field. Neither of the user names is being saved by firefox anywhere in the "tools"; Options, security, advanced or privacy menu fields.
    I did notice that that website has installed a cookie onto my computer called "_rememberme" which contains the user-name that is plaguing me.
    This is a website that I access for very sensitive and important information and I must have both accounts accessible at different times.
    Thanks, Joshua

    You need to clear that remember me cookie and make sure that you remove a check mark to remember you on that website.

    You can disable the automatic fill of a name and password.

  • Possible to use JavaScript to Import Data from XML file to pre-fill fields?

    Hi,
    I have a dynamic fill-in PDF that I want to "pre-fill" internally in my company before sending out to users who will change any pre-filled fields necessary and answer questions we did not already answer.
    We do not have LiveCycle Reader Extensions, but we can use Acrobat to import data from an XML document to pre-fill the named fields.  Is it possibly to do this task using folder-level Javascript or some other method?  I can look into this, and post my findings, but I'd like to know if it's possible or if I need to use a different programming language.

    Hi,
    I am afraid that solution was for a specific client and I can't share it. If I get a chance I will mock up an example, but this wont be for a while. From memory it was just a straight importData method. This would normally fail silently in a non-certified form, but when the form is digitally signed/certified, it works without a hitch.
    Good luck,
