Live Office - dont see reports

Hi Experts,
I installed:
BO Edge trial version
Crystal Reports 2008
Live Office
When I open Excel there is the Live Office menu bar. I can connect to my Enterprise platform and I see the folders. But I dont see the reports and WebI documents. Cant access them direct too.
Does somebody has a solution for this problem?
Regards,
Jan

- Do you see any document? for e.g. Crystal, Desktop Intelligence reports?
- This could be rights issue. Does the user login have sufficient rights to view reports? Can you see a report from InfoView?
- Did you try with administrator login?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your response. Please see below answers to your question:
    When you say that you are not able to connect from Word Live office to server - in this are you able to see Live Office tab in word document?
    Yes, I can see the Live Office tab. When I try to connect to the server to insert a crystal report I get the message "constructor exception (error: WSE 99999) Unknown error "-1""
    Did the installation process was done properly?
    As far as I am aware, yes.
    Which version of Live office you are using? because it will help to proceed further.
    LIVE OFFICE XI 3.1 (version 12.1.0.882)
    Where exactly you are not getting the Crystal Reports Options? Are you facing any error message?If Yes then what is the error message.
    Please see above
    Are you able to login to server successfully?
    I can in Excel in Live office but not in Word. As per the first message, I cannot see an option in Crystal to publish a crystal report. Do you know how I can do this? As I understand I need to publish it to the server and then Live Office will be able to see it.

  • Xcelsius, Live Office, and Crystal Reports Migration Problem

    Hi Experts,
    I have a problem when migrating Xcelsius dashboards from dev environment to production environment. In my dev environment, I have Crystal Reports which are published from BW dev environment and Xcelsius dashboards consuming the data in these Crystal Reports.
    When I try to migrate from dev environment to production environment, I first transport Crystal Reports from BW dev environment to BW production environment and publish them to BOE production environment from BW production environment. Then I use Import Wizard to migrate Xcelsius dashboards from BOE dev environment to BOE production environment. But this way, the live office connections inside the Xcelsius dashboards break because the underlying Crystal Reports cannot be found.
    The other option I can think of is migrating Crystal Reports using Import Wizard rather than transporting them to BW production environment and publishing them to BOE production environment from there. After the migration using Import Wizard, modify the database connection of these reports in CMC. I usually do this for Crystal Reports connecting other data source than BW. I haven't tried this with BW reports yet, because I think publishing is the right way to do it.
    I'm on BO Edge 3.0, Crystal Reports 2008 V0, and Xcelisus 2008 SP1. And I don't have much upgrade options. Currently, I can only upgrade to BO Edge 3.1 and I don't think that makes any difference.
    So how do you migrating Xcelsius dashboards, connecting to BW Crystal Reports via Live Office connection?
    Thanks,
    Robin

    Edge 3.1 has quite a few bug fixes over 3.0 and then I believe you would want CR2008 SP1. But without upgrading anything BO products usually link information via unique identifiers such as the SI_CUID, If you use the IW for everything this is sure to be preserved. If not then I do not know but a good possibility from your symptoms is the CR SI_CUID may have been changed by the way you migrated it. If you are unable to make progress you may consider opening an incident with the BO deployment team but if it's a bug you will need to upgrade to 3.1.

  • Live office database errors in Citrix - underlying WebI reports work fine

    Hi,
    We have a live office report with 30 tabs in the excel file i.e. 30 webi report parts in it. It accesses 20 webi reports, each built on a BEX query.
    Please see below the error which users get while running the report in Citrix environment. The underlying WebI report has no database errors, and we were able to run the Live Office reports at the same time on LAN. The Citirx users get these database/auth errors intermittently, on different tabs of the report at different times - the underlying BO reports are error free and users have proper rights to execute them.
    "An error occured while opening the report. The report does not exist; youhave insufficient rights to open the report; or you cannot make a connection to the BusinessObjects Web Service. (LO 02010)

    Hi,
    BO Version is BO XI 3.1 SP2 FP2.1
    Datasource - BEX queries BW Relese 701, support pack level 8
    We have made users login to Infoview and checked that they are able to execute the WebI reports. Also, earlier they were able to run all reports, so there is no access problem.
    These errors started occuring when we had to refersh BO Universes after some of the BEX queries changed. We even asked users to stop using the excel files on which they used to get errors, thinking the files may be corrupt. Then we sent them new files which we had successfully refershed at our end. But still they get these errors in their environment.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,

    Hi Jawahar,
    thanks for guiding me to this KB, I did the suggested modification i.e:
    Add the following to the command line for the DSLBridgeServer (adaptive processing server)
    "-Dbusinessobjects.connectivity.directory=C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer".
    I'm now testing by refreshing the webi reports. Lets see if I see the "csEX" error again.

  • WebI report based on BEx query in Live Office document

    Hi
    We have a BEx query in BW that has one input ready variable (period). Then we have created a WebI report based on this BEx query (the WebI report itself does not have any prompts). When we run the WebI report we get asked to enter a value in the BEx variable (remember: this is not a WebI prompt). Until this stage everything works fine. Then we have created a Live Office document and added the WebI report. When we refresh the Live Office document, the BEX variable is not shown. The data that is retrieved is from the last time the WebI report run. The refresh option is set to u201COn demand: From the databaseu201D.
    Is there a way to get the BEx variables to be shown when refreshing the Live Office document? Remember, we do not use WebI prompts.
    We use BW 7.3 and BO BI 4.0.
    Kind regards
    Erik

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, this feature has not been developped the BICS connectiviy. It is only available for manda
    tory prompts based on universe. Others have noted the same problem, so there is an enhancement request for the feature to be available using BICS connection in the "Ideas Place".
    Use the link to vote for the idea, more votes gives a better chance that this will be picked up for development.

    Confirm if you are getting the same issue outside Xcelsius  i.e in the Microsoft Excel.
    Try refreshing the Live office objects in MS excel using the option "Refresh all objects "and then import  .xls it in Xcelsius.

  • Error LO 26603 crystal reports - live office - xcelsius

    Hello Experts,
    I have the problem that I can not refresh data via Live Office in an Xcelsius Dashboard in the preview. When I try to refresh the data the following error occurs: Database logon failed. (LO26603)
    To the scenario: I built a Crystal Reports report connecting to a SAP IS-U table and had imported it via Live Office in an Excel file. When I refresh the report in Excel it works fine. Then I opened a new file in Xcelsius and imported the Excel Spreadsheet. At this time it is still possible to refresh the report by starting it in the Excel workspace and logon at SAP IS-U.
    But then I start the preview for the dashboard I first logon at BO-Enterprise and then the error occurs. I choose the Enterprise authentication. In this case I miss the logon-screen for the SAP IS-U. So I can not type the logon/user data.
    I use the Xcelsius 2008 SP3 with FP3.2, Crystal Reports 2008 SP3 and BO Integration Kit for SAP SP3.
    Can anybody help me please. I need your help.

    Hello Alec,
    check out if this helps.

  • Live Office does not retain the Custom Sorting applied in a Webi report

    Hi,
    We have a Webi report in which we applied "Custom Sorting" to sort the Business Names in the required order. However, when we import that to excel using live office, excel doesnt retain the same format and there are not much options that are available within xcelsius to do the sorting. I have gone through various posts here but none resolved this specific issue.
    Here is our environment:
    Xcelsius 4.5
    Live Office Frame work 11.5.5.525
    BOXI R2 SP1 and MHF1
    I tried using different options under "Report View formatting" within live office options but none seem to have made any difference. Unfortunately we can't make any changes to the universe in this case. I checked for few paid addon's but they seem to be for Xcelsius 2008. We have a release next week and would appreciate if any of you can guide me to solve this issue.
    Thanks

    hi pavan
    i can just tell you that i had no issues with custom column sorting in webi with Enterprise XI 3.0 and Xcelsius 2008.

  • Does Xcelsius support Cross Tab report via Live Office?

    -Operating System: Windows XP
    -OS Patch level: Service Pack 3
    -Office Version: 2007
    -Flash Player version: 10 
    -Xcelsius Version and Patch Level: Enterprise 2008 with SP2 (version: 5.2.0.0)
    -Xcelsius Build number (Help>About Xcelsius): 12,2,0,608
    -Business Objects Enterprise version/patch level (if applicable): Edge 3.1
    -Issue Description:
    I have a dashboard which collects data via Live Office from a series of Webi documents and Crystal Reports.  I have found that if I create a report that has for instance sales regions down the left and months across the top using a cross tab in either Crystal Reports or as a Webi the data will only refresh within the current month, so for instance if I create the report in October the sales figure for October will update happily until the last day of the month but on the first of November no sales figures will show in the new month and I have to manually refresh the report in Xcelsius and issue a new Dashboard to my users.  This makes me wonder whether Cross Tab reports are actually supported via Live Office.  If I use formulas in Crystal Reports and manually build a report that looks like this but uses formulas it works fine, but is obviously a much slower process than simply building a Webi cross tab.
    Your views and help would be very much appreciated!!
    Thanks
    Rob
    -Steps to Duplicate:
    As Above

    Hi Rob,
    You can bind cross tab reports from your WebI reports into Xcelsius using an integration tool called[ Xcelsius Web Intelligence Intregration Suite|http://www.antivia.com/products-xcelsius.stm].
    This will give you the full functionality of Web Intelligence inside an Xcelsius dashboard- drill-down, cross tabs, even an ad hoc query panel, all bound into the Xcelsius interface.
    This would remove the need to use QaaWs or Live Office, so you can probably realize some performance gains and handle larger data volumes.
    Cheers,
    Andrew

    can anybody help me.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Krishna.
    Take a look at SAP Note 1461825 - Error "You do not have sufficient rights to refresh data from the specified report (LO 26314)
    Resolution
       0. Login to the Central Management Console (CMC).
       0. Goto Folders and expand All Folders -> Goto the User Security of the Folder where the document is stored.
       0. Select the User Group that needs permissions for refreshing the document -> Assign Security -> Advanced Tab -> Click on Add/Remove Rights
       0. Expand Content
       0. Select Crystal Report -> Grant Refresh the report's data.
    Strangely enough you need a authorization component from Crystal side when you operate outside WebI
