Last data-load date in the WebI report

Hey,
I have made a WebI report on the InfoCube. Now the client is interested in seeing the date on which the data was latest loaded in the InfoCube. If someone can help with the scenario.
Thanks.

Hi,
Take the max of record load date in the report and show it.
Let me know if this did not work.
Cheers,

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.

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.

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.

To display Last Date of the Month in Financial Reporting studio 9

Hi
I want to display last date of the month in header in Financial Reporting studio 9 . Is there any function which displays the last date of the month as per user selection .
for example
If user select month of Jan it should display Jan 31st, 2009
If user select month of Feb it should display Feb 28th 2009
Thanks

Unless you name your Months like that you cannot do it. A large team from a major consulting firm told me for a year that it was not possible and convinced management that financial statements don't need dates.
Management decided that we do need dates (because all financials need dates, look at any text book). I figured out a pretty sweet solution that is simple and easy to use and maintain. The users love it. Management loves it.
I'm not giving it away though.

How to get --Last date of the Last value .

Dear All,
I have a report like
Material Country Current Price
1112----- Singapore -
100
1112----- Japan -
120
1112----- Malesia -
99
Here current price is Last Value of the particular Material on particular Date.
This I can get based on Key figure Aggregation ( Last Value and reference Character 0CALDAY ), It is giving the last Value of the Particular Material.
Now my user wants to see Last date of the value ( Date of the Value )
Example :-
Material Country Date --Current Price
1112----- Singapore -
01/04/2008 -- 100
1112----- Japan -
04/05/2008 -- 120
1112----- Malesia -
05/05/2008 -- 99
If I drill down the date in my report it is showing all dates , my user wants to see only last date .
Hope some one has solved this issue , please help me to solve this issue.
Regards,
SHAIK.

I have created a keyfigure with date as a data type.
In aggregation tab, I selected aggregation Maximum.
Upto DSO, data is Loaded perfect. Ok.
I added the same key figure in cube , When I am trying to Activate the Transformation,
It is giving Error message.
Rule 17 is invalid and is being deleted. The reason for this is that a field or InfoObject that is used in rule 17 has been deleted in the source or target of the transformation ODSO ZPL_DSO1 -> CUBE ZPLATT_C (0GH6MHANQ2J79LXZBLGIJ9ZK9LWHK6RS)
Plz Advice.

How to read Data of a Webi Report

Hello Friends,
I have a task where I need to read data of a Webi Report, how can it be done?
Basically I have a trigger report which runs every day and get the latest RACN number from the database. I am trying to get that RACN number from trigger report using BOBJ SDK.
I really appreciate your suggestions on this.
Regards,
Rakhy.

Hi Rakhy,
Is the RACN Number a column or dimension in your webi report? Is it a universe object(webi based on universe)
Also what version of BusinessObjects you are using?
If you are using XI 3.1 and you need to retrieve objects from a webi report it can be done using the ReportEngine SDKs.
Please refer to the developers guide and API referrence guide available at
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/resdk_java_dg_12_en.zip
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/resdk_java_apiRef_12_en.zip
Also refer to the document at
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-38618 for better understanding the workflow.
An example snippet of how to retrieve an object is below
=========================================
DocumentInstance wiDoc = widocRepEngine.openDocument(oInfoObject.getID());
ReportDictionary reportDictionary=wiDoc.getDictionary();
for(int a=0;a<reportDictionary.getChildCount() ;a++)
String name=reportDictionary.getChildAt(a).getName();
out.println(name);

How to get the ep user information data in the web dynpro?

Hi all
I want to create a web dynpro application on EP.I want to get the ep user information data in the web dynpro.How can I do?Thanks.

Lin,
Two steps to achieve this:-
Step 1: Add the following code in your view Controller:-
IWDClientUser user = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
IUser objUser = user.getSAPUser();
wdContext.currentContextElement().setXXXX(objUser.getUniqueName());
wdContext.currentContextElement().setYYYY(objUser.getFirstName());
wdContext.currentContextElement().setZZZZ(objUser.getLastName());
where XXXX, YYYY , ZZZZ are the context names.
getUniqueName : Gives Login id of Portal user.
getFirstName : Gives First Name of the Portal user.
getLastname : Gives Last Name of the Portal user.
Step 2 : Use "Organize imports" and make sure that you have the following two libraries added in the build path of your project. You can do these by right clicking on your project name ==> Properties ==> Java Build Path ==> Libraries ==> Add External jars.
The external jars are :
com.sap.security.api.jar
com.sap.security.api.perm.jar
Finally rebuild your project and deploy.

How to show muliti language data correctly using webi reports

Hi ,
Can you please suggest me how to show multi language data correctly in webi reports .
Do we need to install any lang pack in both server and client machine ?
Thanks & Regards
Venkat

you mean using translation manager? or data from DB? or both.
You need to make sure that your DB is already configured for multiple languages.
Enable the OS for multi languages
On XIR3.1, you will need to install language packs on the processing servers. then you can utilize translation manager.
Installation of Language Packs are a pain to install and update.

Data discrepancy between Webi Report and same Query fired on SQL Server 2k5

Hi ,
We are facing an issue in BO XI R2.
We need to run a Webi report in which negative values for forecasting data for year 2011 and 2012 should be displayed.
When we are running this report for negative values, we are getting message u2018There is no data corresponding to this queryu2019.
Then we tried executing the same query on Database. Here at db level we got the correct required result.
So now we are not able to find the reason for data discrepancy .
Why the same query generated by Webi is providing correct data when fired on reporting database and not when running the Webi Report.
Checklist we have gone through for this troubleshooting is-
-Connections of Universe (Is universe pointing to same database or not)
-Any filter condition present at universe level and at report level.
Could anyone please help on this.
Regards,
Vaibhav

Vaibhav,
Have you tried the following when you are in WebI: go under the Edit Query panel, click on the "SQL" icon, and review the query that is getting generated? At this point you can also click on the "copy" option, then paste this query into your SQL application analyzer and run to see what results are generated. To me, it sounds like the portion trying to generate the "minus" sign might be getting tripped up causing the disconnect....
Thanks,
John

Error retrieving data from the web server in Excel fo BPC

Hello Everybody,
I'm working with BPC v7.5 , i created some reports with the EVDRE formula and they were working perfectly.
The problem started when i created new users, that in fact have the same access profile and task profile as my user.
i started to test these new users in excel and every time i expand the report this legend appears: " EVDRE Retrying... EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server. Retrying in (X) Seconds...". After waiting a while a push cancel, then appears a window with the legend: Ev4excel Addin, Errors found retriening data.
The funny thing is that when i login back to my user everything works fine again, any idea what could be the problem? the other user have the same permissions.
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Nidia Olguí

very strange. Normally the member access profile must be diifferent. So it is not important the task profile but the member access profile. Can you please double check ?
If you are doing a simple EVDRE with users having problems is it working or you still have problems?
Regards
Sorin Radulescu

EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server

Hi,
I'm working on a presales AppSet "Demo5b".
When I create a brand-new EVDRE report on FINANCE app, there is no problem.
However, after changing to ICMATCHING app, when I type =EVDRE() on a blank sheet and press Refresh, the following message pops up.
EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server
Retrying in (??) seconds
Any idea why this happens and how it can be solved?
Thanks!
Sunny

Hi Joost,
I have the same problem. When I try to retrieve data on an input schedule is launched that error.
I am working on an VM on MS BPC.
I am not working with cubes so the solution is not the same.
If i process all my dimensions this error does not appear any more?
Best regards,

You can do that very simply like so.
code

first = sy-datum.
first+4(4) = '0101'.
last = sy-datum.
