Internationalization of date filed in the webi report

Hi,
When i develop a webi on date column report in english US locale, the date values will be displayed in some mm/dd/yy format by default.
But i want to show datetime values in the roport i.e. mm/dd/yyyy  hh:mm:ss am/pm kind of thing.
I can do this by formatting the report column to custom required format.
But if i do this my report then i am limiting the internalization capability of my report.
Is there any way to show the date time format of the date which changes with browser locale ( i mean which supports internationalization)
Thanks in advance

    Dear all,
    I want to change the date format in the oracle reports. I am using weblayout & paper layout. I have changed format mask using property inspector. It appears in paper layout. How can i get in the weblayout, please help me.

    I think whatever applicable in Paper Layout should be applicable to Web Layout also.

  • Report data ( value ... tag) missing in the Webi report retrieved through RestFul Webservice

    I am trying the below URL to get the WEBi report from SAP BO using the Rest Webservice support that is now available.
    http://{serverIP:serverPort}/biprws/raylight/v1/documents/{documentId}
    I am able to get the report but as I compare the same report response when using SAOP Webservice, there seems to be a mismatch in the response. Here is what I see in the SOAP response:
    </td><td c="1" ><cell  ref="1.E.4t" bid="14" h="26" w="231" pad="6,7" sid="-10"><ct >Some arbitrary value</ct><value type="xs:string">Some arbitrary value</value></cell>
    But when I run it through REST, I am missing the <value ..> tag:
    </td><td c="1" ><cell  ref="1.E.4t" bid="14" h="26" w="231" pad="6,7" bt="1" sid="-10"><ct >Some arbitrary value</ct></cell>
    Apart from this right at the start of the xml response, I see some property mismatch as well.
    SOAP has this property extra:
    <property name="output.format.xml.valuemode">yes</property>
    While REST has these property extra:
    <property name="output.format.xml.option.style">1</property>
    <property name="output.format.xml.styledict.fontplatform">html</property>
    <property name="output.format.xml.td.bandinfo">yes</property>
    <property name="source.selected">data</property>
    <property name="xelement.xml.object">yes</property>
    <property name="xelement.xml.object.usemap">yes</property>
    <property name="xelement.xml.object.usersupportedformat">image/png</property>
    I am not sure if:
    the <value ...> tag miss is because of these missing/extra properties or
    current REST support has some issues
    For my application the value tag is a must and I can't do without this, but with REST it seems no way to obtain that.
    Any help or pointer(s) in this regard is appreciated!

    Hello Milind,
    According to our Product Owner Sam Polichouk, the solution should be available for you in 4.1 SP3, which is currently scheduled for release by the end of March 2014 (subject to change).  The product team recommends that you get the raw, unformatted data values from within the Dataset specific call.  This data contains a type to tell the end user what kind of data it is, so you can format it or use it properly.
    The updated documentation for the SDK will be available at SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence platform 4.1 – SAP Help Portal Page once the Support Pack is publicly released.

  • Time delay on seeing the changed data onto the webi reports

    Hello,
    I'm new to BOBJ and was hoping someone can help me with adjusting the time delay the reflects the changed data to the Webi reports.
    I have a user that would update a form on our EP.  Afterward, she would have to wait a while before she can see the changed data on our Webi reports.
    can you please tell me the default time lag and show me where I can change it if required?
    thanks.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Our BO is 3.1 SP4.
    We just implemented PBF (Public Budget Formulation) and our forms are running on NWCE server.  It's being written to our backend BW 7.01 SP8 server.  I was told by our users that after she updates some new information on the form, it takes a while before she can see it on the reports.  My understanding was the universe should see the updated data from our BW immediately after they refresh.  Just as you both mentioned.  But according to the users, its not.  there's a time delay.
    I'm going to test this myself if there's a delay.  In the meantime and suggestion would be helpful.

    Hello Monali,
    are you getting this error constantly or sometimes?
    what type of connection are you using for your Webi report
    Is it Specified user name/password OLAP connection or SSO Olap connection
    If your are using Specified user name/password OLAP then try with SSO connection because SAp recommendation is not to use  Specified user name/password OLAP connections..to resolve this kind of issues please restart DSL bridge..

    I've had the same issue bugging me since installing Snow, er, lion, er, cat, er, cougar, er, Mountain Lion. Incredibly ANNOYING.
    It's stupid stuff like this and reverse scrolling that really turn long-timer users off. I'm personally glad Forstall got fired for blunders such as these.
    I'm serious peeved that turning off iCloud Documents & Data actually deletes documents and data locally. That's just incredibly stupid.
    MANY thanks mende1 for the answer on how to fix it.

  • BW Field level Autorizations are not working in the WEBI Reports

    Dear All,
    1. I have created Authorization roles with Infoobjects Authorization Objects.
    2. In Bex Query Authoizations are working on the Infoobjects like for
    Ex: For USER1 I have given Company code = 1000 &
    User 2 I have given authorization for 1100.....
    3. Import those roles into Business Objects-CMC.
    4.Users were Imported.
    But in the WEBI Reports BW Field level Authorizations are not working i.e for USER1 authorization for Company code is 1000 , in WEBI report it is showing all the Company codes data for USER1.
    For USER2 also showing all the data in the WEBI report.
    Plz help me on this issue.
    Thanks,
    Kiran Manyam

    Hi,
    For Authorization to work in BO you can check the following:
    1. You need to create authorization variables in your BEx query.
         Also these variables should not be input ready.
    2. While creating universe in BO you need to select "Single Sign On" option available in the parameters iwhile creating a new
        connection.

  • Changing values in the web report

    Hi All,
    For ex. I have the following scenario.
    I have a web report in which I have a table item which is displaying the query result. The user wants to have a facility to change the Key Figs, if they want, directly on the report, it means when the user runs the web report and if he says something to be changed, he will directly change the value on the report and will click something like a button to save the changed value back in the infoprovider.
    Is this something possible?I came to know that we can do this sort of things using BSP but I am not sure how to make the table item to accept some changes and how to link to a BSP Program.
    Could some one please help me in this..
    Best Regards,
    Nene.

    Nene,
    If you want to know if it is possible , here's how...
    1. Use a BPS layout ...
    2. Create a BSP layout for the same
    option 2 :
    Create a BSP page which has a textbox for accepting the value and a submit button.
    On clicking the submit button , based on the parameters selected by the user , update the ODS. Remember you cannot update the cube because it does not have overwrite capability. However , declare the cube as an export datasource and then call the function module for the data source and push in the data for the same inside the BSP page.
    Hope this helps..

  • Error when geeting the WebI report into Xcelsius using LiveOffice

    Hi All,
      I am using Xcelsius 2008 SP2 and Live Office. I run the report in the WebI and I am trying to get the report into Xcelsius using the live office. When I go to live office and select web intelligent I  am able to see the report it the InfoView but when I go to next step to insert into live office I am getting the below error "

    Could any one please help me.
    Thanks
    Muvva

    Hello Raghavendra,
    What is the size of the WebI report? There may be a limitation to the rows of data you can pull into Live Office.
    If this is the issue, you can avoid it through an alternative connection method called the [Xcelsius Web Intelligence Integration Suite.|http://antivia.com/products-xcelsius.stm]
    You can use this to connect Xcelsius directly to WebI, without the need for Live Office.

  • Writing commands to get specific data channels in the output report via script or automated script generation..

    In my project I have to make certain calculation and then get the data plotted in the given report template. I am using automated script for this. My script is doing all the calculations and then it not selecting and drag-dropping the selected channels on the report template. Its saving the blank report template.
    I am struggling to get the data for specific channels plotted by using the script. I need the selected channels to be plotted on this report template and then get it saved.
    Any help will be deeply appreciated. Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi LaxG,
    Brad is absolute right. It is possible to create your whole layout via script.
    If you have loaded  the example report layout you can copy these lines to create a new line in your plot. This is the recommended object oriented way.
    call Report.Sheets("Blatt 1").Objects("2D-Axis1").Curves2D.Add(e2DShapeLine, "anyName")
    Report.Sheets("Blatt 1").Objects("2D-Axis1").Curves2D.Item("anyName").Shape.XChannel.Reference               = "[1]/Zeit"
    Report.Sheets("Blatt 1").Objects("2D-Axis1").Curves2D.Item("anyName").Shape.YChannel.Reference               = "[1]/Geschwindigkeit"
    For performance reasons it's recommended to use the it like this.
    dim oLine
    set oLine = Report.Sheets("Blatt 1").Objects("2D-Axis1").Curves2D.Item("anyName").Shape
    oLine.XChannel.Reference               = "[1]/Zeit"
    oLine.YChannel.Reference               = "[1]/Geschwindigkeit"
    Like Brad mentioned it is much easier, that you have a stored template of your report with all setings and customisations already done.
    You open this layout file and have stored the names of your calculated channels. When you are doing this with a script they always have the same name and belong to the same group.
    Now you can customize the references of the line items.

    I just got the same error message, but I try to open a DeskI in InfoView. This has nothing to do with the Web Intelligence Processing Server. But I had problems with the RAS (Report Application Server). A restart of the RAS didn´t help, so I restarted the BOXI-Server. Now everything is fine, but I still don´t know, what happens.
    It would be great to know what the problem was.

  • Open the WebI report from Xcelsius dashboard

    Hi All,
    I would like to know how to open the WebI report from the xcelsius dashboard.
    Looking at the previous posts I followed the following steps to implement the same but that is not working.
    Inserted the component URL button and used the folowing link:
    http://servername/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sType=wid&sIDType=XXX
    But this is givingerre: " Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
    Also, tried the copying the reprot link, but that is opening the Infoview login page.
    I want the report to opened when we click the URL button.
    Could someone please provide me a solution.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Sindhu

    did you try passing the iDocID parameter? When prompted did you try to login to InfoView and check whether Report gets displayed?
    Ideally the URL should be as below:
    [http://<server>:<port>/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?iDocID=<cuid_of_the_document>]
    If you want to bypass the logon screen,you need to modify the OpenDocument.jsp to pass logon token to the above URL i.e.token=+token where the +token is being retrieved by sdk.
