Issue while exporting the report to other formats

When the rpt file created in the BO server is used to view the report through the report viewer, there are export options available to choose from. If this export option is tried as MSExcel or Word document, the alignment, page headers and all are not coming in the same way like in the one generated through the PDF.

Hi aparmar,
Which version of the Crystal Report and Business Objects you are using?
Which SDK's you are using in your application to export the report to RTF format?
Also if you are using JRC in your application, you can follow the given link:
Font size in exported report
I hope the above link might be helpful.
Please revert if you need any other information.

Getting error while exporting the report

Hi,
I am facing error while exporting the report. Getting below error.
"No data can be exported because there are no rows.Operation failed."
how come this error is coming even though my report contains data.
please do the needful.
i am using the version discoverer 10g.
Thanks,
RC.

I am having the same problem. I found this article in which the user was exporting 100,000 plus records and had the same issue exporting (Discoverer workbook exported to excel error - No dta can be exported and they were able to fix it by adjusting two memory settings in their pref.txt file. However, in my report there are only 1,100 records with eleven columns being returned. I export much larger reports on a daily basis.
Originally, the report was returning records and when I would go to retrieve all records it would tell me that all the rows could not be returned and the data may be incomplete. After scrubbing my SQL I no longer get that message, but the report still will not export and I get the same error as you.
I have not tried the pref.txt settings fix but may try it today to see if that is a workaround. I will then have to evaluate whether it is a good fix or just a band-aid.

Performance issue while opening the report

HI,
I am working BO XI R3.1.there is performance issue while opening the report in BO Solris Server but on window server it is compratively fast.
we have few reports which contains 5 fixed prompt 7 optional prompt.
out of 5 fixed prompt 3 prompt is static (it contains 3 -4 record only )which is coming from materlied view.
we have already use many thing for improve performance in report like-
1) Index Awareness
2) Aggregate Awareness
3) Array fatch size-250
3) Aray bind time -32767
4) Login time out -600
the issue is that before refresh opening the report iteslf taking time 1.30 min on BO solris server but same report taking time in BO window server 45 sec. even we import on others BO solris server it is taking same time as per old solris server(1.30 min).
when we close the trace in solris server than it is taking 1.15 sec time.it should not be intial phase it is not hitting more on database.so why it is taking that much time while opening the report.
could you please guide us where exectly problem is there and how we can improve performance for opening the report.In case the problem related to solris server so what would be and how can we rectify.
Incase any further input require for the same feel free to ask me.

Hi Kumar,
If this is happening with all the reports then this issue seems to be due to firewall or security settings of Solaris OS.
Please try to lower down the security level in solaris and test for the issue.

How to export the report in HTML format for desktop application

Hi,
i have wrote the JRC desktop application to export the report and i am able to export it in PDF and other formats as mentioned in "ReportExportFormat" API.
i would like to know is there any API there which can export the report in HTML format.
i know it would be possible with web based application of JRC, but how can i do it in desktop application?

There's no mechanism for static HTML pages that displays the report.
You can use the CrystalReportViewer DHTML viewer, but that's 'interactive'.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Please let us know the Visual Studio Version that you are using, just to inform you, VS2005 is compatible with CRXIR2 and above and VS2008 is compatible with CR2008 + SP0.
Do the report display properly from the designer? Does the Export from the designer in xls works fine?
Thanks,

Getting IllegalThreadStateException, while exporting the report to PDF

Hi Friends,
I am using JRC to create report in PDF format.
But intermitently I get java.lang.IllegalThreadStateException while trying to export ReportClientDocument into PDF format using the PrintOutPutContrller.
The I am using for this is
ExportOptions exportoptions = new ExportOptions();
PDFExportFormatOptions pdfOptions = new PDFExportFormatOptions();
exportoptions.setExportFormatType(ReportExportFormat.PDF);
exportoptions.setFormatOptions(pdfOptions);
reportInputStream = reportClientDocument.getPrintOutputController().export(exportoptions);
The exception I get is:

Please help me in solving the issue.
Thank you,

Hi Ted,
Thank you for the answers.
In our applications the Report will be generated in two ways.
1. A user clicks on a link on web, and the report is generated in PDF format and sent via http.
            At present we are creating a new
            ReportClientDocument for every request and using ExportControl.processHttpRequest() API
            the report in PDF format is sent user through response.
2. Quartz schuduler trigger a job, whose work is to generate Report in PDF format into a file, and the
          generated pdf file is sent to users via mail.
          Here I user ReportCLientDocument.export() API to get the InputStream and use the input stream
          to create PDF file.
It is possible that a user is requesting a report on Web Page and the same report is being generated by Scheduler at the same time. But in each case a separate ReportClientDocument is being used.Since Report containse a huge data, and it takes time to generate PDF file so, it is possible that a given RPT file is opened by two spearate ReportClientDocuemnt (one via web user and other via Scheduler) at the same time.
The have got rid of my earlier exceptions by sycncronizing the ReportClientDocuent.export() API.
But now am getting following exception intermittently.
2009-05-01 16:47:45.859 GMT+05:30 [ERROR] [ReportJob.java:137] [AnalyticsScheduler_Worker-10(34)] - [] Could not generate the Report.

Issues in exporting SSRS report to PDF format in Report Server - Blank spaces are deleted

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem in exporting SSRS report to PDF format. It deletes all the blank spaces when I use bullet in a Text box and try to export to PDF formt in Report Server . For example
• Project submitted to the TRC
Result in PDF format:
• ProjectsubmittedtotheTRC
I also noted that when I try to export to PDF in Visual Stuio 2005 (Business Intelligence development studio), it does not delete any blank spaces and shows the correct aligned Data in PDF format.
Please help me as it is frustrating a lot
I would highly appreciate for your quick response

Was there ever a solution found for this as i have the same issue.
When bullet point is entered in a field all the spaces are removed when exported to PDF
i tried exporting to excel and it does not remove spaces, however this is no use to me as it needs to be in PDF
Using IE 7 (Don't think the browser has anything to do with it as this happened via a subscription)
Didn't know SSRS had specific Service Packs, i though they came as patches to SQL Server (SQL Server is on Service Pack 3)
This should be easy to replicate all you need to do is copy text containing a bullet point into a sql server database field and then add this field to a report export to pdf and the spaces are gone
Thanks in advance,
Mark Brunton

Excel output display issue after exporting the report

Hi All.
We are using BI Publisher with Oracle retail for report generation.While exporting report in excel format , after saving the file we are not able to see the data.
When we do a Format-->Autoformat and select one of the options, we can see the data .
What could be the possible reason for this?Can i do anything to avoid this.
Is there a possibility of checking excel log to see how the Excel treating the incoming data.If yes, how can we check the excel log(failed to find anything on this).
Thanks!!

Hmm.. Not really sure. Have you checked your Financial Reporting preferences on Workspace? Couple of things to look for:
- Export to Office Application options
- User Point of View options
I would just check the preferences and test various options.
Cheers,

Issues on exporting the report to Excel from full client BO 5.1

Hi,
I am facing a problem in exporting the BO report from Business Objects 5.1 to excel file. I am aware that there is no direct way to export the BO report to Excel from Business Objects(File--> save as to .txt file and then copy its data to excel )
When the export the BO report to excel file,I received two errors one over other
error1: Numeric data overflow (3349)
When I click OK button, second error received is like this
error2:export failed (dma0005)
I tried all options to fix this and also I looked for an dialog box " export to external file format " in Business Objects inorder to copy the report data to COPY TO DDE option but I didn't find any aforementioned dialog box
Please provide me the solution to fix the issues
Kind Regards,
Srinivas

Hi Denis,
Yes,all reports based on this particular universe have this problem
Are you telling me to isolate the object from the universe that is creating problems and then run the report ?
Also, I am unable to find the option from menu items in Full client BO 5.1 to open the dialog box with name " export to external file format ". Can you please tell me where I can find this?
Warm Regards,
Srinivas

Export WebI Report in others formats

Hi,
Is there any way to export a WebI report in HTML format. Current only the following output format options are available while scheduling a WebI report:
1) Web Intelligence
2) Microsoft Excel
3) Adobe Acrobat
thanks!!!

Hi Alvaro,
These are the only supported formats. Desktop Intelligence and Crystal support other formats. You might consider the Query as a Web Service which can provide your data as XML.

BI Publisher: Issue while scheduling the report/query to be executed daily

Hi,
We are using Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.6.3 and while we schedule a report(RTF Template) we are facing issue.We use bursting query and when we select option to execute immediately it runs fine and sends notifications,it also executes when we schedule it to run Once but fails when i schedule the report to be executed DAILY .

hii
The query does not includes any RKF, CKF any complex calculations. as I said before also query is based on MP which is designed on a single Cube. There are no such navigational Attributes used for selection, Number of records are not more than 300 on that particular selection parameter
there is only one info object which is creating issue & it is a master info object. If i am restricting this info object in the query & then executes the query , it gives the error msg also i put a variable for input parameter, & there I restrict the value, then also query executes with an error msg
But if query is not restricted with any value for that info object then query executes with in a second.
Thanks

Repersentation of #error in HFR while exporting the report in Excel

Hi All,
We are working on Hyperion Financial Report 9.3.1 with Essbase as a data source.
We are replacing the #error with 'NA', which is working fine when we are viewing the FR reports in workspace.
But when we export this report in Excel, word "NA" is changed by 0 (zero), which is misleading the user.
How can we stop this conversion (NA to 0)?
Any suggestion and help will be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Mohit Jain

Hi All,
Thanks for your answers and support.
I raised this issue to Oracle support also, I got the following response-
Hi Mohit,
I tested the case with the way you offered me. I can reproduce the problem. I think it should be a bug of the product.
I searched that on ML3. I found a bug which said that. This bug has been fixed in EPM 11.1.1.0.00. I tested that on my EPM 11.1.1.0.00 system. It works fine. The NA value can be exported in excel.
So would you like to upgrade to EPM 11.1.1.0.00 to fix the issue?
Hope this information will help others in future.
Thanks & Regards,
Mohit Jain

XML Report Issue while generating the Report in EXCEL

Hi All,
I have Created the XML Report which will generate the output in EXCEL format. I am having the issue with the report output in EXCEL.
In my Case,
If I ran the concurrent it got completed normally and the output got completed normally and the output is generated successfully if the data for the input parameter combinations exists.
Issue is if there is no data exists for the combinations of parameters choosen then it gives the output in excel with the headers alone some times. (meaning there is no combinations of data exists for the input given excel is having headers alone).
wiseversa
sometimes the output in excel there is no header part too..(meaning the excel is empty/null).
Could anyone suggest how to resolve the issue so that the output in excel can include the header part if the data not exists for the input given. so that it should not generate the output as blank in excel i want the header alone should be included even if the report has no data for the input combination given.
Its very urgent issue.
Any suggestion will be a great help for me.
Thanks ,
Ravi.
