Issue with Variable Entry in BI 7.0

Hi,
I am having an issue with the variable entry in BI 7.0 Version. Here is a brief background.
--- In BW 3.x, when we define a variable with <b>Single Value Option</b>, you can enter the value manually in the pop-up selection screen or select from the dropdown of possible values.
---But in 7.0 when i try to enter the value manually in the selection screen its opening the dropdown list, and is not giving me the option to enter a value manually. I am entering a valid single value in selection.
Is this a bug or do i have to make any specific settings to correct my issue?

When the selection screen pops up choose the KEY only function on the TOOLS on the top right corner of the screen. Then you will be able to enter the values manually.
Hope this helps.

Issue with variable entry

Hi,
I have a date variable which is ready for input. On the variable screen it defaults to todays date. When I run the report in Excel it works fine.
However when I run the report in the web browser and I select the date from the drop down, it goes back one day.
For Eg. If I select July 31, 2008 from the drop down and hit OK. July 30, 2008 gets populated into the selection screen.
This does not happen when I execute the report in Excel.
Thanks
Demetrius

Hi,
You cannot enter the value manually directly in your variable.
You can however enter the value manually in the dropdown list.
There's an input area at the bottom of the dropdown list.
I read somewhere the manual entry in the pop-up selection screen would become available in the future. This document was however not an official document.
For the moment this is the system behaviour.
Please assign points if this solved your problem,
Best Regards,
Filip

Problem with Variable Entry Screen

Hello All,
We upgraded our development systems to NW2004s and came across the following issue:
All our Bex queries have restricted time characteristics with variables entries. When we execute a query it should pop-up the variable selection screen for us to enter the restriction values but the query is ignoring Variable restriction screen and taking into consideration everything. The same query works fine in Prod., which is still in 3.1.
Did anyone come across this situation kind of situation? It did not pop-up any type of error and we are in SPS10
Thanks in Advance,

Flex Table Add Row Issue with Dynamic Entry Lists in Visual Composer

All,
Your help would be kindly appreciated in resolving an 'Add Row'-issue within a Flex Table that uses Dynamic Entry Lists in Visual Composer. The issue here is as follows :
When I use a [Local Dynamic Entry List |http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=O5hrG2aMxWZ84Mu1211193041]to populate a row field, the initial row and all next rows are emptied upon 'insert row', they loose their selected values and also the entry list values ('pull-down menus') are lost. Please also see [screenshot|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=FPLr2cABcgiHRou1211192889].
The initial row does [show the entry list values |http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=2HybmEHAuQYs9cg1211192766]from the Local Dynamic Entry List based on the dynamically assigned input value; upon 'insert row' the entry lists are lost. Please also see [screenshot|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=FPLr2cABcgiHRou1211192889].
When using a [Global Dynamic Entry List |http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=m5p2KYuBb442dTq1211193501]to populate the row fields the Flex-table behaves normally as expected. Unfortunately with a Global Entry List it is not possible to dynamically assign a input value. Please also see [screenshot|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=U96V0zENCCyO3gA1211193157].
Please also see the [issue summary image|http://www.postyourimage.com/view_image.php?img_id=06xti08tIEfely1211195178] I made to visualize the issue. What I basically would like to know is whether this is a 'known issue' or not, or that it is an issue that can be fixed or whether there is an alternative workaround available ... I'm using Visual Composer 7.0 and the Portal is at SP 13.
Many thanks,
Freek

Hi,
you should be able to assign a dynamic value with global entry lists as well. If you say @myParam as dynamic value. VC will indicate in red letters, that the field @myParam is unknown. However, it will work, as long as @myParam is known in the form or table where you use the entry list.
I have never heard of the problem that entry lists are emptied after "insert"-event.

Issue with @variable('DOCNAME')

I added a where clause using the BO designer that uses @variable ('DOCNAME') and it work perfect when running webi reports. But I also have some crystal reports that are using the universe and they suddenly stopped working. Does the variable 'DOCNAME' have an issue with cyrstal reports??
Even if I just create an object that simply displays the @variable ('DOCNAME'), I still run into the same problem.
I have another query that uses @variable ('BOUSER') and that one works fine on both webi and crystal reports.

Nevermind, I may have found an answer. Based on what the article below states, it looks like the only variable that is supported in Crystal Reports is 'BOUSER'.

Hi
Syslog is used for logging selected events and problems within SAP system.
Information is written into text files that are saved at operating level. Exact location can be identified with the help of system parameter DIR_LOGGING.
In SE38 tcode, when you run the report RSPARAM you will find some parameters:
rslg/local/file: Name of local file can be identified with this parameter.
When maximum limit of this file is reached new file is created and old file is saved in the system at OS level. Location of this file can be identified by the parameter rslg/local/old_file.
You can try to check the same from that.
System log is wriiten for every instance separately.
Hope this helps!!
Thanks and Kind Regards

Powershell Issue with Variable and Equal Signs

I should have been using $line.grade, but your syntax worked so thanks!

I've been running a powershell script to create active directory accounts at our school from a csv file. I'm needing to have users placed in a specific OU based on what grade level they are in, which is a field in the csv file and I have passed into the description field in AD. To keep from writing a bunch of if statements, I thought I might could pass the description variable into my organizational unit path, but I'm having syntax issues.Here is the specific line I have issues with.Powershell'ou' = "OU=$line.description, OU=LESStudents,OU=LES,DC=school,DC=k12,DC=state,DC=us"I've tried the single quote, double quotes, escaping the equal sign and some other methods I've seen online, but haven't quite gotten it right. It just isn't recognizing OU=$line.description as a variable.

Audio sync issues with variable frame rates as well as .ts files

I'm using Premiere Pro CS6 and CC, in Windows 8.
I bought an AverMedia Live Gamer HD card to capture 1080p footage with, and the the videos it produces work perfectly during playback. No sync issues whatsoever. I'm saving them as MP4 at 30fps.
The problem is when I import them into Premiere Pro, the audio loses sync at certain points. After a bit of digging, I've discovered that the videos have a variable frame rate, which Premiere Pro does not support. I don't know why, considering competing products that are significantly cheaper can handle them with a problem, but oh well. The capture card can also save videos in .TS format, which produces a constant frame rate, however when I import them into Premire Pro the sync is immediately off by a second or more. I assume this is for an entirely different reason. Again, they play back normally without a problem. Upon emailing AverMedia, I was told this was Adobe's problem and there was nothing they could do about it.
What I'm wondering is if there is any sort of realistic solution to this as of now. Is there any way that Premiere can work properly with files that have a variable frame rate? If not, is this being worked on?
Or maybe there's a way to get the .TS files back in sync, that way the variable frame rate issue doesn't matter anyway.
Converting the files is not a long term solution. I'm working with hours and hours of HD video, and it would take way too much time to do this.
Manually resyncing the audio is also not a solution. Again, this would just be way too much wasted time with each project.
The only solution I see as of now is to switch to Sony Vegas until this problem is resolved in Premiere, if it ever is. I'm really hoping there is some other way, so if anyone has an idea as to how to fix this, I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you.
tl/dr:
Is there any way to get around Premiere Pro not working with variable framerates? My .TS files are also out of sync, is there any way to fix that? Without converting or manually resyncing.

>If not, is this being worked on?
Discussed many times before... never a "yes" answer to your question... tell Adobe what YOU want at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
If enough people make a request, Adobe MAY add the feature (I don't work for Adobe, so no guarantee of anything)

Issues With Variables

First, let me send a thanks to PBrock and Cotton for their help with my last issue I had with a program. You guys helped tremendously!
Now onto the latest issue with my code I compile this and get two error messages saying that the variables (again) and (exit) cannot be found. I have a sneaky suspicion that once I figure these two errors out that I'm going to get slammed with a bunch more but I do have my fingers crossed on this one.
Here's the code

    if (sign equals(a))
      return num1 + num2;
    else if (sign equals(s))
      return num1-num2;
    else if (sign equals(d))
      return num1/num2;
    else (sign equals (p))
      return num1 * num2;

Issue with Variable Personalisation in Bex Report

Hi Gurus,
I'm facing a typical problem with Variable presonalisation in the Report.
I've executed a BEX Report and filtered data on some characteristics and used SAVE AS Button on the Portal to save the resultset. When I'm trying to use the variants, again say after 2 or 3 days i couldn't find updated data for particular variants upon using the same variants rather its refelecting the old data. Further more when I execute the report and try filtering on the same criteria altogether, I'm able to see updated result set.
Is there any setting to be enabled when we personalise variants or variants are dependent on the data or the date on which they are created. Not sure why the reports are behaving this way. Or Do I need to create variants time and again.
Any pointers would be of great help.
Regard,
Yaseen

Hello,
In the BEx report, when you get the variable selection screen there input your selection and at the bottom you have the option of saving them as a variant.
Now in future when you run the report simply use this variant and execute the report. It should work fine.
Also remember date selection can be tricky. If you input todays date in the variant, it wil consider the same date in further references. So do a check on that too.

Shashank

HOW TO CREATE A CONNECTION IN BI PUBLISHER WITH VARIABLE ENTRY

I've created one user(say BIPUB1) from AS OIDDAS portal and assigned him XMLP_ADMIN role. I've 10 other users with whom I will share a report. Each user has different authorization(VPD based). Now I want to create a BI-publisher report using a discoverer report(owner BIPUB1) as datamodel and share that report with all 10 users. But all these 10 users should view data based on their authorization defined in OIDDAS. How should I
achieve it?
Can I create a JDBC connection from BI-publisher Admin tab with variable userid and password. When user will logon to BIpublisher portal with login_id and password given in OIDDAS, these variables will capture those values of userid and password and show the report data as they individual user has authorization? Or otherwise please suggest how to maintain authorization. Thanks..

are you talking about BI Publisher Desktop or BI Publisher Enterprise Edition?
BI Publisher Desktop is just for building templates.
You can connect to DB by BI Publisher Enterprise Edition.
for details look into the user guide in the following link

HT4623 Issue with anniversaries entry in notification drop down bar and calender app

Hi guys,
There is issue with notication dropdown and calender app in ios 7 which was not present in ios 6. The notification sync birthdays from contacts but only birthdays and not anniversaries.
same is with the calender app
what is the solution for this?

The problem is not with the phone per se. The problem is with Android 4.0 and your TB does not have 4.0. Because this phone is the "gold standard" of development for Android 4.0 it makes sense to report the problem here. If Verizon takes notice they will push the bug report up the food chain until some developer at Google or Samsung decides to fix it.
