  • How can I set information broadcasting (send Workbook with E-mail) in serv.

    FYI: I set a broadcasting schedule to send workbook with e-mail. The pre-calculated server was set already.
    How can I set information broadcasting (send Workbook via E-mail) when I cannot access enterprise portal ?

  • Information Broadcasting Excel Workbooks with Local Formulas

    We are attempting to use information broadcasting to send out reports that use the v7 BEX "convert to local formula" feature in order to reformat the reports.  We can execute the reports, and even save them to a local client and review them later when disconnected from the server.    However, if we use information broadcasting to send these Excel files out as attachments, the users are unable to see the data unless they connect and refresh, defeating our entire purpose of putting the data in excel.
    Has anyone else attempted to Information Broadcast BEX Excel workbooks while using the Local Formula mode provided with v7?  Were you successful?

    Yes, I see some information in the precalc log, but nothing that seems to be wrong:

  • Information broadcasting  Excel workbooks

    Hi All
    I am trying to set up a scenario, so that I can broadcast 7.0 workbooks.
    We are on support package 15 on SAP BW.
    I have installed the precalculation server. However I am facing an issue:
    When creating a broadcast setting from the workbook, the system gives me the following error message (in the log file) "Framework class CL_RSRD_PRODUCER_EXCEL type PROD did not deliver a document". Does anyone know how to correct this ?
    Best regards Mikkel

  • Information Broadcasting - precalculated workbook is empty

    Hi,
    we are facing the issue, that workbooks which are being distributed via Information Bradcasting (Business Explorer -> Tools -> Distribute Workbook) are being distributed, but without any results (so only the workbook template) even we have maintained the input values variant. we do also have a running Precalculation Server (checked via transaction RSPRECADMIN).
    Can somebody help?

    Hello,
    Make sure you've downloaded and installed latest version of Precalculation Service (BWAPSERV12_0-10002960). When installing, make sure you have full admin rights.

  • Information Broadcasting: Monthly Reporting with variable dates

    Dear all,
    we have created a lot of reports with RD and have pubished the reports in the portal. Our reports have a lot of selection screens. Now we would like to use information broadcasting. We have already created information broadcasting settings. We have maintained fix variants for our reporting
    For example:
    Variant x1
    Organization: C110
    Scenario:       Actual
    Date:             is filled by the user Exit
    Now we tried to shedule the report. We are using Variant x1 to find the correct selection. The problem is, that we have already saved a fix date in the variant (for example 01.01.2008), because the field is obligatory.
    The User-Exit for the variables works with step 1, but the problem ist, that the variant x1 is overwriting our User-Exit value.
    How can I avoid, that the Variant is not overwriting the User-Exit. Of course for reporting without variant, the manual entry has priority before the user exit.
    Thanks for a soon feedback.

    hi,
    in order to update months, firstly create variants for the reports. Then implement the below program modifying the users inputs. For current month or last month you have to hard something like sy-datum(6), an you have to hard code the field name for the month variable that you use in query.
    Below program is for BI 7.0, you can also check the document. It also contains a method for bw 3.5 variants.
    You can schedule this program in a process chain or make variations of this as needed.

  • Information broadcasting  - precalculation error for BEx workbooks

    Hi,
    i have problem with Information broadcasting for BEx workbooks 7.0. At the log display of transaction RSRD_ADMIN i get a red status message with " Cannot precalculate workbook XYZ" -> connection transfer did not succeeded.
    At the transaction RSPRECADMIN -> show queue (program: RS_PREC_SHOW_QUEUE) , i see that the request is listed as "successful precalculations" (?!)
    Some hints:
    -Further tests (2 days ago) were successful for workbooks and query email-bursting
    -Precalculation server is switching between green and yellow status every refresh
    Do you have any ideas or hints?
    Thx in advance
    Tobias

    Hello,
    I would like to suggest you something:
    Go to Windows -> Services   (Start -> RUN -> Services.msc)
    Stop the SAP Precalc. Server
    Start the SAP Precal. Server Multi-instance.
    ON THE PRECALCULATION SERVER, access your system via SAPGUI and go to RSPRECADMIN.
    Then, there is the tip, register 10 times the Precalculation Server with different names.
    E.g.
    Precalc1
    Precalc2
    Precalc3
    Precalc4
    Precalc10
    Then, test again.
    Cheers,

  • Information Broadcasting - Error in the Workbook

    Hi,
    We are implementing Information broadcasting for the workbook. It works pretty good as far as running the workbook, scheduling the workbook on a precalc server. When we try to email the workbook we get the email but the file is corrupted. We see the following error on the precalc server log,
    Event Type:     Error

    Has anyone had similar problems.
    Your help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    Check the below error in the workbook for reference field of the query.
    <i>E,608,Error in Calculation error:Object reference not set to an instance of an object.,Object reference not set to an instance of an object.</i>
    Refresh the work book and check it the values for the column. if you get the same error then check the corresponding reference value of the query. there might be some problems in the query/

  • Issue with Information broadcasting and pre-cal server in SAP BI

    Hi Experts,
    I have issue with information Broadcasting and Pre-cal server. I have a worrkbook whcih runs from information broadcasting in pre-cal server. Workbook is desinged on single query and workbook contains visual basic code. workbook has a variable which is controlled by Control query in information broadcasting.
    I have 20 employees every month I need to send workbook via e-mail from information broadcasting.  The problem is sometimes all 20 employees will recieve e-mails and sometimes not. I identified there is something wrong in workbook or in pre-cal server.
    because after workbook calculation in pre-cal server is not pushing to SOST so there is something wrong in workbook or in pre-cal server.
    I closely observed pre-cal server front end log. There are few operations performing on workbook in pre-cal server
    like Open workbook, Calculate workbook, Save woorkbook and close workbook. In success case pre-cal sever is performing all the operations but in failure case pre-cal server is missing Close workbook case.
    Below log In pulled from pre-cal server
    Can you please tell what could be the problem.

    Hi Ravikanth,
    Thank you very much for the reply
    I went into RSPRECADMIN and clicked on 'Display Current Queue'.  There we have 3 sections
    1) Queue Overview of Open Precalculations
    I can see this section is always blank after running IB also
    2) Queue Overview of Current Precalculations
    In this section I can see an entry after running IB and duration is changing. but some time workbook in this section will never processed but the duration column is changing may be something is happening at this stage.
    If the entry is not proccessed in this section and IB SM37 job will never end. I manually cancelled the job from SM50.
    Don't why the workbook is taking long time and will never end even though I cancelled the SM37 IB job.
    3) Queue Overview of Proccessed Error-Free Precalculations
    All the error free workbooks which means all pre-cal server completed workbook calculation and sent to SOST.
    I manually ran the workbook for all the 20 employees I can't find any pop-up message (earlier we have pop-up windows appearing because of VB code and when report returns no data and we fixed the pop-up issues)
    Can you please help me further to trace the error.
    Thank you

  • Issue with controllable variable in information broadcaster jobs

    Hi
    I have a workbook with one query which displays different information on two tabs. This query has a controllable variable (customer exit) on "Material" from a query in another info cube.
    Everthing is fine when you execute the workbook as you can select the variable from another info cube. However, when I set up information broadcaster job for this workbook, the controllable variable only takes effect on the report in one tab and runs for everying for the report on the other tab.
    I tried to change the query slighly but keeping the same controllable variable and insert the new query into the other tab, it still doesn't work for me.
    Is this just the limitation of IB or anything else can be done to get the results I want?
    Kind Regards!

    In Bex under the Business Explorer / Tools, you should have a Distribute option to distribute workbooks.  This should open the web browser based Information Broadcasting inerface which allows you to send a wkbk immediately, or you can schedule the execution and distribution.
    I believe with 3.5 SP15 there is an option to distribute as a csv file.  I believe the Note has you add an entry to a table that adds csv as an output option, but I think the technical functionality actually exists before SP15.

  • Information Broadcasting - need for additional Licensing?

    One of the key features that is prompting us to upgrade to BW 3.5 later this year is the Information Broadcasting functionality. 
    This will allow us to easily push reports directly to our user base rather than the traditional method of manually emailing workbooks. However will this generate a need for additional licences?  From the testing we have performed so far in order to broadcast a report the receiving user needs to have an account in BW together with the email in the address book. 
    We will have a considerable number of users whose only interaction with BW will be to receive a report that has been broadcasted.  Does anyone have any experience of this same issue?
    any help/advice appreciated.
    thanks
    Mike

    Hello Michael,
    One possibility is to create an email alias that is a distribution list of the users that you want to broadcast to. Create a broadcast setting, in step 2 of the broadcaster wizard specify the distribution list. You shouldn't need to create SAP logon IDs for these users.
    I hope that this helps.
    Cheers,
    Scott

  • Is Precalculation server a prerequisite for Information broadcasting

    Hello Everybody,
    I wanted to know is installation and configuration of pecalculation server a prerequisite for enabling Information broadcasting feature in BW 3.5 i.e; inorder to send emails to users .I mean inorder to send mails to users is it necessary to install pecalculation server first.
    Regards,

    The Precalculation server is only needed if you want to distribute <b>workbooks</b>.  In order to distribute workbooks, the BW needs access to a computer with Excel on it. The precacluation server service software can be installed on a standard desktop PC.  It can be installed on mutliple desktops, or you can consider a centralized server, but for initial testing, a desktop will do. There are a number of OSS Notes to apply, several from SP 17 that deal with problems occuring as a result trying to distribute multiple wkbks simultaneoulsy.
    You do <b><u>NOT</u></b> need it to distribute either query links or html formatted output.
    You also need an IGS server if you want to be able to send your output in a zip file format. 
    Don't have the link handy, but try searching SDN on Precacluation Server - there is a good paper (think it was a How To...) that was just written in April on troubleshooting Precalculation Server issues.

  • DB type repository manager for information broadcasting?

    I read some article which says only FSDB type of repository manager can be used for BI informaiton broadcasting. I want to broadcast to MOSS server, which uses IIS, but stores everything in database. Is there anyway to use DB or WSDL type repository manager for broadcasting?
    Thanks

    Where did you get this information from? Is there any document that states that? Below is the information I got, it says FSDB has to be used:
    Can I use information broadcasting to distribute precalculated queries, Web applications, and workbooks to a third-party file server, Web server or document management systems?
    Yes. With information broadcasting, you can precalculate queries, Web applications, and workbooks and publish them into the Knowledge Management of the SAP NetWeaver Portal.
    In KM, you can easily create a Repository Manager (CM repository with persistence mode FSDB) that is attached to a file system directory (for example, the directory of an Internet Information Server (IIS)). You have to create a link in the KM folder of documents to the folder of the CM Repository attached to the file system or you can define your CM Repository as an entry point in KM. For more information, see SAP Note 827994 (SMP login required).
    Information broadcasting can automatically put a new report on the third-party file server (for example, using the data change event in the process chain). KM offers repository managers for many different file servers, Web servers, and document management systems (such as IIS and Documentum):
    1.                            Create CM Repository attached to file system.
    2.                            Use iView KM Content to create subfolder in file system (optional).
    3.                            Set permission to Administrator (optional).
    4.                            Create link in /documents to folder of CM Repository attached to file system or define CM Repository as entry point. (See SAP Note 827994.)
    5.                            Schedule Broadcasting Settings that export to a linked folder of CM Repository.
    Because documents created via Information Broadcasting have additional attributes attached to them which mark them as broadcasted documents, it is not possible to store these kind of documents in a "pure" file system repository because such a repository usually only stores properties like "last changed", "creator", etc. Fortunately, KM provides a mechanism to nevertheless use a file system repository to store the documents. The additional properties will be stored in the database. Details are given here and here.
    The "persistence mode" of the repository must be "FSDB" to allow this kind of behavior. Please note that because of the distributed storage of file and additional properties, the property assignment will be lost when moving around the document in the file system using some non-KM tool like windows explorer.
