Migration of FR report from epm 122 to epm 123

Hi all,
We are making plan for migration of epm 11.1.2.2 Financial reports to
Epm 11.1.2.3 .
In epm 11.1.2.2 uses excel addin functionality but in epm 11.1.2.3 oracle removed it
My questions are:-
1)Is any impact on formulas and calculations after migration reports?
2)Will my reports properly runs after migration ?
Please provide information soon
Please mention all detailed ideas regarding to it...
Thanks in advanced..

Your last queston was about upgrade from 9.3.3. to 11.1.2.2 and now a question about 11.1.2.2 to 11.1.2.3 which makes me believe you are offering the upgrade to a client and then asking questions about it on a forum.
Cheers

Migrating a webi report from one environment to another using import wizard

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone please tell me what all access should I have on my ID to be able to migrate a webi report from one environment to another environment(e.g. from development to quality).
Regards,
Neeraj Sharma

Hi,
To use the Import Wizard utility, you basically need Administrator, Full Control to Top-level folder, and "Add objects to the folder" and "Edit objects" for this user on the root folder.
You need the least restrictive role, because you require absolute control for content promotion between 2 entitlement systems.
the webi document is the cherry on-top, you;ll have universes, connections, folders to bring over too.
Regards,
H
p.s. check Note 1450708 - How to restrict access to the Import Wizard from a Business Objects Enterprise system
and
Note 1297121 - What rights needed to use Biar File Extraction for a normal user while using Import Wizard ?

Migration of Webi Reports from DEV To QA

Hi ,
we are implementing BO for the first time using SAP BW data as the Source.
we are done with the development of the BO webi reports .Now need to migrate the reports form Dev to test system.
Can anyone send me a Procedure for mirgrating the Queries from Dev to Test.
We are using BO 3.1 Sp2 .
Thanks in Advance.

Hey janardhana Ch,
One can use :
1. LCM(Life Cycle Management)
2. Import Wizard
SAP BO introduced LCM specifically for migration of reports/universes etc between different environments. (DevTestQA--Prod) and at the same time one can use "Import Wizard" also.
And Import Wizard you can use for migration from older version to newer versions.
Per my experience, i used and using Import Wizard for migration between environments.
If you need further help on this, just let me know your mail, i'll share real-time migration doc which i prepared.
Thank You!!

Migration of our reports from Streamserve to XML publisher in Oracle EBS

Dear All,
I am working for a company using Oracle Applications 11.5.10.2 and we have several critical reports developped with Streamserve V3 (Customer Invoice , Sales Order Acknowledgment, Shipping Advice, PO layout, ...).
For various reasons we plan to abandon Streamserve and migrate to XML publisher or BI publisher whose functionalities seem to cover most of our needs.
However, my knowledge of XMLP/BIP is quite basic and I need some information on how to implement the reports.
I will be very glad and grateful if someone accepts to share his/her experience by answering a few questions :
1) What are the main differences between the XML publisher version included in APPS 11.5.10.2 and the standalone version of BI publisher ?
2) In most of our reports the language depends on the third party (vendor, customer, carrier, ...) so in the same report batch we can have some documents to be printed in English, while some other should be in French.
Is it possible to achieve that with XMLP or is the language to be chosen when submitting the concurrent request ?
3) As for languages, the delivery of the document (email or printed paper) depends also on the third party.
Is it possible in a same batch to have some documents emailed and other not ?
4) The bursting engine seems to be the main solution to manage the way documents are delivered.
a) How can we automatically launch it after the main request completion ? (most of our reports are scheduled to run periodically)
b) Is it possible to make bursting with a dynamically generated control file ?
c) What if the bursting engine does not couver all our needs ? Is there a way to develop our own deliver logic ? If so, where to find a step by step procedure to achieve that ? (knowing that we are newbies in Java language)
5) Some of our reports must be generated in PCL rather than PDF. I think that is not native in XMLP so what may be the workaround ?
Thanks in advance for your very helpfull answers.
Best regards
Karim Helali
Paris, France

Thank you Steven for your quick reply.
Here are my comments/precisions :
1) What we would like to konw is what are the functionnalities included only in that standalone version. This way we can decide if it is worth paying the quite expensive extra licence for BIP or if the EBS version of XMLP is enough for us.
I tried out to find this quite basic information without success. If anyone can indicate an oracle reference document
2) I know that the language is chosen via the template. Also, when you submit an XMLP concurrent request in EBS you have to choose which template to apply for the layout. So it looks like it is not posssible within a unique concurrent request to generate documents in more than one language. Is it so or am I missing something ?
3) Regarding documents multiple delivery management, I undertsand that we can do it either with bursting engine or with specific JAVA code implementing XMLP APIS. Even we are newbies in JAVA, we can deal with that. But I am quite puzzled as I find nowhere a document that explains how to develop that and especially how to integrate this within EBS.
Let me explain you our current logic with Streamserve and let me know how this can be implemented within XMLP :
- a report is setup in EBS as Executable type = SqlPlus / Output Type=PDF
- the SQLPLUS scripts takes into account the user request's parameters and generate an XML(like) file including all the data
- at the end the SQLPLUS calls a specific shell that runs the Streamserve step : the XML file is passed to the specific streamserve binary report wich generates several outputs (global PDF for the concurrent request output + global PCL flow sent to the printer queue + 0-n physical file(s) for archiving + 0-n email(s) sent ...)
- The language and delivery modes are not unique within a batch: they are decided per document in the streamserve binary report (based on third party setup included in the XML data file). So we don't need to launch a report batch per language or delivery mode.
I think such process should be possible using XMLP java APIS but I am quite stuck as I don't know how to start. Has anyone implemented such a global process in EBS with XML ?
Thanks again

Need help in RFP - Migration Estimates for Crystal Reports from BI 3.1 to 4.1

Hi,
I have to migrate 100 crystal reports from BI 3.1 to 4.1. The reports vary from simple to complex in terms of complexity.
I want to know the time estimates (no. of hours/report) for the above upgradation for a client proposal.
What all parameters should i mention in the proposal?
Thanks

You don't actually have to upgrade the reports to a newer version of Crystal in order to migrate them from BO 3.1 to BI 4.1 and have them work. BI 4.1 will work correctly with Crystal Reports that have been created in Crystal XI r2 and higher. The inner structure of the .rpt file is essentially the same, with new things being added when new features from the newer versions are used.
Some things to remember when migrating Crystal reports using the Upgrade Management Tool (based on my experience migrating a number of clients from 3.1 to 4.x):
1. If the reports were saved with a specific printer, make sure that the printer has been configured on the BI 4.1 server. In 3.1 this was not an issue, but there's a change in printer processing in the newer versions of Windows Server where BI 4.1 will run that cause errors/warnings in the migration of these reports.
2. If your reports use ODBC connections, make sure that ALL of the required connections have been created prior to migration. Even though BI 4.1 is 64-bit software, the Crystal "servers" are still 32-bit, so they require 32-bit connections. If you're connecting to MS SQL Server, make sure you use SQL Server Native Connection 10.0 or 11.0 for these connections.
3. If you have Dynamic Parameters and you've had to make any changes to which DB drivers are used - even if it's in an ODBC connection that has the same name as the old system, be aware that you'll have to create new data connections that use the new ODBC connections or drivers and then point the data foundations to the new data connections - otherwise your dynamic parameters won't work.

Migration of Reports from 10g environment to 11g environment

Can anyone tell me the steps or how to migrate reports from oracle hyperion interactive reporting 10g to oracle hyperion interactive reporting 11g environment??
Any kind of help would be greatful and highly appreciated.

OK, apologies for asking the wrong question.
Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Workspace, Fusion Edition 11.x does, obviously, integrate with the Oracle Business Intelligence 10.x today. EPM is the Workspace and where the Hyperion Interactive Reporting bqy files reside.
Users logging in to https://your_domain.com/workspace are able to consume IR files.
Concerning the upgrade of OBI 10.x to 11g, assuming that EPM remains, there should be no impact on the viability of the IR files.
Having said that, we should seek verification that the OBI 11g product does nothing to adversley affect the integration with EPM.
I hope that helps.

Error while migrating reports from one instance to another(no torch seen)

Hi,
I am facing this problem when I am trying to migrate reports from UAT to Production. After migration when I try to run the report from Discoverer plus, I cannot see the torch symbol which is general if we have any parameters for that report. So, I again migrate the same .eex file and now I see the torch.
Can any one throw some thoughts why is this happening, why I cannot see the torch symbol in the first time itself?
Thanks,
Srini.

Hi Srini
The list of values is not being associated with the item the first time around. The order in which the items are selected is important so for example if lists of values were imported first without the items upon which they depend they will be ignored. Running the import a second time will cause the LOVs to recognize their associated item and thus the association will be made.
Generally I do two exports. I will export my folders and workbooks first and then export my item classes.
Hope this helps explain what you are seeing.
Best wishes
Michael

Migrate reports from 6i to 10g

Hello friends,
I want to migrate reports created in oracle 6i report builder
to
oracle 10g.
Please give me steps for that.
Arvind2

It happens on all machine. We use browser to launch the application and the report is called from forms (10.1.2). We didn't change any code in report and neither the fonts (Tahoma). In 6i, client server environment, windows can find the font. I guess in 10g web environment, the font is not as default. HP Laserjet 8000N is a network printer which I use to testing my report. everything is fine in 6i but not 10g. Here is my question.
1. How to check printer setup? Should I use the default font from Linux instead of Tahoma?
2. I found a note in metalink, Note:356221.1 which explains the procedures to deploy reports from windows to Linux. I am not sure my problem is related to the font or something else...
Thanks for you reponse.

Is modification to be done in the above code?
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
as stated before if the desname value is pointing to the client filesystem it wont create the output there because Reports Server is not running on the client, it is running on the server as this is the way it is.
If you want to save output to the client you need to use the options mentioned before.
For testing purposes only change your code as follows.
e.g
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESNAME',TEXT_PARAMETER, 'c:\'||vACNAME||' '||:BLOCK50.DOCDATE||'.PDF') ;
As you can see I changed the original folder name to C:\ .. (I hope your reports serve is running on a Windows machine if not then changed to /tmp). Run your form and check c:\ or /tmp and see if you see the report output there. If so,
than your code is fine the only problem is what I have already stated.

10g Migration Problem: error shown when trying to call a report from form

Dear Friends,
I am working on migrating developer 2000 forms to 10g forms. I am using migration tool for this. Everything is going fine except calling report from a form.
Say, in the original form I had the following:
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,’ C:\test1.rdf’,SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pi_id,NULL);
After migration its has become:
rp2rro.rp2rro_run_product(REPORTS, ’ C:\test1.rdf’,SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pi_id,NULL);
Then, I have kept the report ‘test1.rdf’ in the ‘OraHomeAS\reports\samples\demo\’ location and changed the above code into:
rp2rro.rp2rro_run_product(REPORTS,'test1.rdf',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,pi_id,NULL);
Now the form runs fine on application server but it can’t call the report. While attempting to call the report, it shows the following error:
ORA-06508
FRM-40735
Please note that the report ‘test1.rdf’ individually runs fine on the application server and at the time of migration I provided all the information (e.g. report server name) correctly. If I am missing any package, please tell which package I am missing and where should I paste it.
Please help me because I am very close to the deadline!
Rgds,
Luther

Hi,
The conversion to use the rp2rrp call needs a library to resolve the call which I think is called rp2rro.pll.
It seems that this library is not being found at run time, which is what the ora-06508 error often means.
I guess that you have compiled the form and must therefore have the pll to compile, so it is the forms_path setting in the app server run time that might not be set.
Look at the environment file (default.env is the original name for this, if you haven't created a custom one) for the entry FORMS_PATH. Is the location of your library specified in the path ?? If not put the directory in, then stop and restart the app server.

Look and feel discrepency after migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3

Hi,
We are migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3. If the report is designed in Crystal client by inserting a subreport it does not come well in web viewer(Infoview). If I do not use subreports then the view is same (both in web viewer & windows client preview).
Could you please let me know, what could be the problem and how to resolve this?
Your valuable time and solution is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Mohan

Hello,
What happen if you use the web java viewer instead of web viewer? (you can change it in the preferences options)
Otherwise, when you say "it does not come well", what do you mean?
Thanks

It's urgent. Your valuable time and solution is much appreciated.

I moved your thread to the " .NET - SAP Crystal Reports" forum, assuming this is in a .NET app(?)
Unfortunately, the description:
" does not come well in web viewer"
is somewhat "loose". Perhaps inserting a link to a screenshot(s) that demo the issue will be a good idea?
Also, if my assumption is correct:
1) What version of .NET?
2) What is the exact version of CR? (In CR designer go to Help | About)
3) What browser?
4) Does this work on you dev system?

How to migrate Power View reports and respective BISM connections from one SharePoint environment to another?

Hello All,
We have a few Power View reports and respective BISM connections that need to be migrated from our DEV SharePoint 2013 site to our TEST Sharepoint 2013 site. The reports have been "migrated" over but they do not work. Eventually, I just recreated
all the Power View reports from the BISM connections.
We have to do one more Sharepoint migration, and I'd rather not have to recreate the reports. What do we need to do in order to migrate the Power View reports seamlessly?
Thanks,
Carter

I created a new BISM in the new SharePoint site with the same name and modified the cinneciton string in the report and uploaded the PowerView Reports ( download from the existing SP site ).
Please see the below link to modify the connection string in the PowerView report.
