ITS and Pie Charts

We need to display charts (bar and pie) in a Web report/application running on SAP 4.6 and ITS (no WebAS, no BSP, no Portal). We need those charts to be real-time (not saved as a static image). The charts are user-specific. How would you do it?
I have few ideas:
1. Build bar charts with HTML tables or image blocks. No pie charts are possible.
2. Generate PDFs using Sapscript/Smartforms and call PDF from the Web page. Questions: Can you have charts in this solution? Can you generate those PDFs on the fly?
3. Use Adobe SVG for client side charts (SVG viewer is required)
4. Use ActiveX or Java Applets
Thank you for advice.

Kai,
It's a great suggestion to use IGS. But I am still not sure how this would work. Yes, I can use classes in the ABAP dialog program to call IGS. But how do I pass the images to ITS?
I see few possible scenarios. Am I close?
1. Responding to a call from ABAP, IGS is generating a GIF image and saves it in a location accessible from the Web (e.g. ITS WGate or IGS server). IGS is returning a reference for the image name/location to the ABAP dialog program. The reference is passed to ITS HTML template.
2. Responding to a call from ABAP, IGS is returning a bitstream of the image back to the calling program. There should be a way to save it as GIF in ABAP and post the GIF image to WGate as a MIME object. Also, if I can save it a GIF in SAP, I can alternatively build a smartform that would use that newly generated GIF and convert the document into a PDF an then display the PDF with a text and charts on the Web.
3. You call IGS directly from ITS, not the ABAP. You pass parameters to IGS telling what chart do you need and what data to use. IGS returns a GIF image back to ITS.
Can please provide some clarity here.
Thank you,
Andre Polakoff

  • Bar Chart and Pie Chart

    Hi!
    In My application i want to create few bar and pie chart.
    If is there any code for generating bar and pie chart,
    pl send me.
    If third party software is available tell me the details of it.

    Sure, this functionality would be nice to have right
    out of the box, but when you think about it: should
    Sun be distributing a reporting SDK and promoting bad
    practices anyhow? Implementing your reporting in
    disparate and distributed manners is just plain messy
    and definitely translates to a bad practice. Turning
    to a centralized reporting mechanism, driven by a
    reporting server that can handle the needs for 80% of
    your requirements is a helluva lot more thoughtful and
    mindful than implementing separate mini reporting
    engines encapsulated within each and every application
    that you deploy.Elegantly stated! On a practical point, my company built an Enterprised based reporting solution on top of Java technology within the windows environment (please be kind). Specifically we used Java, ASP and Javascript (no VBScript), and delivered the information using the Microsoft IE 4 and 5.
    However, since Microsoft chose to elminate Java from it's current browser (IE6), we have to throw two years of coding away. We are now in the process of moving backward (technically speaking) to a desktop reporting model using Java (no browser technology) that accesses an Enterprise database, or embedded Java database. None of our customers are using Netscape, so that was never an option. Microsoft's and Sun's inablity to cooperate almost decimated our company's product line (and it still may).
    So I agree with you that an Enterprise server based reporting solution is the best architecture, and yet here I am running away from it after a two year struggle with competing standards. Sometimes the best solution loses for reasons that are simply not technical in nature.

  • Bar chart and pie chart in same screen at a time

    hi experts,
    I am trying to display the bar chart and pie chart in two separate containers in same screen .I wrote code for this in PBO of screen by using the function module  GFW_PRES_SHOW , but it is showing one chart at a time which is lastly executed in the PBO.
    I need to display two charts in two container at a time by calling the same function modules two times first time for bar chart second time for pie chart by changing the  parameter 
    presentation_type      = 1 for bar chart
    presentation_type      = 31 for pie chart.
    please help me in this regard asap.
    Thanks,
    K.Rajesh.

    Hi..
    Instead of using the FMs .. you should use the Object oriented approach for the same.
    Brief steps:
    You should have 2 control areas and 2 containers.
    Define different instances of 2 controls and attach them to the 2 containers.
    Call individual methods to display the controls in PBO.
    This should show both at a time. It is really simple.
    As an example you can go to SE38. From the (sap) menu go to Environment -> Examples -> Control Examples.
    Here you will see lot of examples.

  • ActiveX and pie chart problem

    I am trying to create a bar of pie chart in Excel 2003. I am able to insert my data and create the chart, but I need to set the "SplitValue" to 6. I was able to find the property for doing this but I get an error when I run the vi (see attached).  Any thoughts?
    Solved!

    I think your problem is that you don't have "Index" wired for the ChartGroups property. Thus, it may be returning a collection of chart groups, but you are typecasting it to a single chart group.

  • Drilldown bar and pie charts

    I am looking for charts with drilldown feature. I need to drilldown to another chart or a report.
    can you please point me to any articles doing this from scratch? I looked the sample packaged application with charts but it does not have drilldown links,.

    For all charts, the first column "link" is what you're interested in
    The syntax for the select statement of a chart is:
    SELECT link, label, value FROM   ...
    Where:
    link is a URL. This URL will be called if the user clicks on the that point on the resulting chart.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e11945/bar_chart.htm#BEHGDBBE
    unfortunately no examples here, but check inline help for expected SQL in charts. Just define a URL for your drill down destination.
