Hi,
Check in RSTT - For trace of authorisation
RSECADMIN

Authorization for IC Web Client Profile

Dear Guru,
This is the first time I involve in IC Web Client
Project.
I would like to limit IC Web Client Profile. What is authorization object which I have to limit ?
Beside that, if users miss authorization in the web screen, what is user have to do ( in R3 we can order user to run /nsu53 or I run ST01 to trace ) ?
Pls advice.
Thanks,
SUGANDI

You can use SAP delivered roles
SAP_PCC_IC_AGENT
SAP_PCC_IC_MANAGER
SAP_PCC_CAMPAIGN_MANAGER.
Each of these roles have access to Interaction Center BSP application 'CRM_IC' as well as other PCUI applications used in IC Web Client.
Authorization object for BSP applications is 'BSP_APPL'.
Talk to your security person and ask him to assign these roles to the user who are going to use the application.
You can even customize these roles.
Thanks,

Authorization Error ERR_WIS_30263 when creating WebI reports

Dear all,
I'm currently trying to setup all authorizations in BI4 for my key-users and I'm getting some issues with my WebI authorizations.
Each time I logon to the WebI rich client, I get for all data sources which I can choose as the basis for my WebI reports the following error:
Your security profile does not include permission to create documents. (Error: ERR_WIS_30263) (WIS 30263)
I already checked again and again all available authorizations in my access level, but I can not get it to work.
Any ideas, which authorization right might be missing?
Thanks,
Andreas

Hi,
As advised in previous answer, check the users access via the CMC.
Central Management Console > Users and Groups > User Lists
Double click on user concerned and check the Group the user belongs to. Maintain accordinlgy :
Try the following
Member Of > Join Group > Universe Designer Users
Hope this helps,

Analysis Authorization in BO 4.0 Webi report

Hi All,
I am using BO 4.0 and creating connection from Information Design tool to a BW query using BICS client. This connection is then published to CMC.
We are using SAP authentication and importing the roles from BW system. We have added profiles to this role and these profiles have Analysis Authorization set on Company Code. So one user can access data to one company code and vice versa. Now this works well in Bex Analyzer, but if I try to create a report in Webi, the analysis authorization fails. I went through the forum before posting this question and I found that is in 3.1 version and in most cases using SSO in universe connection solved the problem.
However in 4.0 I am using BICS client and followed the same processes to create a connection but for some reason it doesn't work ? Is this suppose to work differently in 4.0 ?
I have tried:
1. To create connection in Information Design tool using SSO, selecting user ID and password. It doesn't work.
2. Checked the Bex query and it already has Company code as a Characteristic restrictions (I have made it a mandatory variable).
3. Publish the connection to CMC with my Enterprise and SAP ID and in both cases it doesn't work.
Please let me know if anyone encountered a similar issue and what is the best method to resolve this.
(BO 4.0 no service pack or fix pack installed on the system yet)
Thanks - Appreciate your help !

Ingo,
1. To create connection in Information Design tool using SSO, selecting user ID and password. It doesn't work.
>> Correct you need to setup you OLAP Connection with SSO.
>>> What I meant was I created the connections using both the methods, Using SSO it allows me to create a connection. The ID which I am using to create a connection has Admin access to BOBJ system. When I login as a regular user to create a Webi report and select this new connection, it throws an error message 'The DSL Service returned an error: com.businessobjects.dsl.services.workspace.impl.QueryViewAnalyzer$CannotGetCubeFromConnectionException: Cannot get the cube from the connection'
Using the other method to create a connection with User ID and password, I can create a connection and with the normal user login I can connect to the BW query but Analysis Authorization doesn't work.
Ingo : Could you be more specific what you mean here with the different users ? When you say "regular" user are you referring to an SAP credentials or SAP BusinessObjects Enteprrise credentials ?
2. Checked the Bex query and it already has Company code as a Characteristic restrictions (I have made it a mandatory variable).
>> The variable in the BEx query needs to be an authorization variable.
>>> This has already been set as Authorization variable. There is still a question here. If I select the variable as Authorization variable, I cannot set the other parameters in the query properties such as Mandatory variable (as this is greyed out).
Ingo : What other parameters would you like to configure ? Could you perhaps describe the scenario with more details ?

One of the 6 authorization fields has only few values , when we give " * " to this field the user can able to execute the report.
Could anybody tell me what is need be done here

Hi!
Probabily the combination of authoriztions funcions are executing considering "and".
See your configuration to considerer "or".

Hierarchy Analysis Authorization in BW and BOBJ Webi Report

Hello,
We have a scenario wherein we have implemented Analysis Authorizations (Hierarchy) on Organizational Unit info object (0ORGUNIT) and need to report on BOBJ WEBI. Our scenario is as following
ORGUNIT    - L0 (Overall Enterprise Level)
-     L1 (Enterprise - Continent Wise Split)
-     L2 (Enterprise u2013 Country Wise Split)
-     L3(Enterprise u2013 City Wise Split)
E.G-
      LO (Company ABC) MANAGER 0 will have access to the entire organization
           -L1 (ASIA) MANAGER1 will have access to ASIAN Subcontinent
                  -L2 (India) MANAGER 2 will have Access to country India
                            -L3 (New Delhi) MANAGER 2.1 will have access to city Delhi
                            -L3 (Mumbai) MANAGER 2.2 will have access to city Mumbai
                   -L2 (Malaysia) MANAGER 3 will have access to Country Malaysia
                              -L3 (Kuala Lampur)
                              -L3 (pahang)
             - L1 (Europe)
                                        u2026..
The requirement is that the CEO of the company should be able to see the entire set of data ( L0-L4).We have continent managers who can see that data specific to their continent, similarly at L3 Level the city manageru2019s should see the data only for their specific city.
In BI we have used analysis authorization based on hierarchies. We have created an authorization object say ZAUTH1 and have assigned the hierarchy L0 from RSECADMIN. Now, in Webi when we create a report a sample row comes as :
L0 Org Unit     L1 Org Unit     L2 Org Unit     L3 Org Unit     SALES Key Figure
Company ABC     Asia          India          Mumbai          1000
Now, we have MANAGER 2.2 who has only access to the data specific to his city (Mumbai). There is an Analysis Authorization object created for him ZAUTH2, by ONLY assigning the org unit hierarchy L3 (for Mumbai). When we run the bex report with the user MANAGER 2.2 u2013 it correctly displays the result and the user is only able to see the data for L3 Org Unit (Mumbai). However when you bring this data to Webi u2013 the report comes in the below format:
L0 Org Unit     L1 Org Unit     L2 Org Unit     L3 Org Unit     SALES Key Figure
Mumbai                                           1000
The L3 org unit has now got assigned to L0 Org unit , as this is the only org unit assigned to the MANAGER 2.2 user .
In such a case we are not able to write any generic formulae for the report. Is there a way to correct this issue? u2018Mumbaiu2019 should either get assigned to the L3 OrgUnit column is webi report , or is there a workaround that is possible ?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Vj

Hi Vijay,
The problem you speak of is known and comes from the fact that the hierachy is flattened in the process of delivering it to WebI. Therefore there is no real 'solution' to the problem, just some work-arounds you can think of...
1)
Create a report variable that starts looking at the lowest level, if it is empty check one up, and so on until you found what you were looking for (the lowest leaf available), which by definition must be there (even if it is top level).
Using similar logic you can also get a 'number of levels avaible' and so fill in the complete tree (duplicating the highest level).
This is difficult to explain when end users create their own reports, though you could provide a template report with these variables in there already.
2)
Extend the hierarchy with duplicates below the lowest level.
So i.e. L0 Company - L1 Continent - L2 Country - L3 City- L4 City - L5 City- L6 City.
This will give back on the four levels for top authorization
L0 Company - L1 Continent - L2 Country - L3 City
For authorization on Continent:
L0 Continent - L1 Country - L2 City- L3 City
For autorization City
L0 City- L1 City - L2 City- L3 City
So in all situations the fourth level, the L3 Object will hold the City level.
This you can then use in your report.
Hope this helps,
Marianne

Reports missed in Favorites Shared Folder(in web report)

Hi experts,
I missed shared folder reports in Favorites folder in Web report. where can i go and set those reports then end users able to see those reports and can access.
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Shah

Dear shah,
you have to create roles per transaction pfcg and assign them to your End-Users, per Query Designer/ WAD or Bex Analyzer you can then publish queries/web templates/workbooks into this role.
Alternatively you can add/change/remove a object per transaction pfcg.
Best Regards

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.

Roles & Authorizations for Web Reports...

Hello Experts,
We are newly implementing Web Reports in our organization. I need your great thoughts regarding implementing Authorizations for users to access the reports.
We are using a report menu page that contain links to all the reports. The page opens by clicking on a link on the portal. The individual reports are basically accessed from this page by clicking on the corresponding button (links a URL ).
I wonder if there is any way to look into the menu page (XHTML code of that web page/application) when ever the users click on the reports link and disable those buttons that the users are not allowed to access depending on the roles users are assigned to. Otherwise is there any better way to do it.
And also how to call a function from web applications.
This is a kind of urgent issue any quick ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I apologize for the difficulty in reading this I will repost.
We have had no training or received any documenation on WAD. The below was created from internet research. Hence there may be WAD functionality that would allow easier maintenance, however; this is what we use.
With our dashboard, I have a web template that contains hyperlinks for our reports. I will call this HeaderTemplate1. For each web page I have report templates. These report templates have the HeaderTemplate1 mentioned above as well as the report tables, charts, text elements, tabs, etc.
The JavaScript logic for accessing the urls of the specific report templates is contained within our HeaderTemplate1.
Below is how our setup was tested. Keep in mind, this was only for testing basic functionality. If this is something we use I will most likely create a master data table that houses the user ID and an attribute for the header type. Thus, any report menu changes can be altered quickly without changing the javascript of each report template. Also this will accomodate the few thousand users we have.
To add the functionality of different 'menus', I created another header template with the same hyperlinks of HeadertTemplate1 with the exception of one or two hyperlinks. This, HeaderTemplate2, was added to each report template just below HeaderTemplate1. Note that both HeaderTemplate1 and HeaderTemplate2 were set as visible on each report template.
Also, on each report template I added a text element. The 'List of Text Elements'property was set as such; Element Type = General Text Sympol, Element ID = SYUSER. This Text Element was linked to a query or view from BEx via the dataprovider. On the HTML side, I surrounded this Text Element with
<Font ID="UserID",,,textelement....</Font>
Each Report template has this javascript function, fnRepOnLoad, which is triggered at the OnLoad event.
[<SCRIPT language = "JAVASCRIPT">
function fnRepOnLoad()
    var user_ID=document.getElementById("UserID").innerHTML;
    if (user_ID=='USER123')
      document.all["HEADTMPLT1"].style.visibility = 'hidden';
      document.all["HEADTMPLT1"].style.position = 'absolute';
    else
      document.all["HEADTMPLT2"].style.visibility = 'hidden';
      document.all["HEADTMPLT2"].style.position = 'absolute';
</script>
The function results as this. If the user is USER123, HeaderTemplate1 is hidden, leaving only HeaderTemplate2 visible. Otherwise HeaderTemplate2 is invisible leaving on HeaderTemplate1 visible.
We do not use buttons as our global leaders prefer hyperlinks but buttons can be enabled or disabled similarly.
As mentioned before, if this method is implemented, I will create a reportable master data table. Create a customer exit variable to retrieve the header template required for the user. This header template variable value will then be pulled by a text element on each report template. The script function will act as follows. If many report headers are necessary I may use a case statement.
Var User_template=document.getElementById("UserTmplt").innerHTML;
If UserTmplt = HeaderTemplate1
--> make all header templates other than HeaderTemplate1 invisible
else
--> make all header templates other than HeaderTemplate2 invisible
etc...
I hope this helps. Please keep me posted with your solution. I am very interested to learn what others are doing.
Best Regards,
Larry

Authorizations for WEBI report based on BPC data model

Hi All,
We are strugelling with setting up authorisations for the reporting on BPC data model.
We created Bex query on top of Multiprovider that consists of BPC cube. The Bex query is source for WEBI output. The authorisations has been set up on BPC data model (cube) in BPC application but they are not passed nor to Bex query nor to Webi. Example: The query is build on top of OPEX BPC data model, this data model is restricted based on Oranizational Unit. My test user is allowed to see only Org Unit = 'Australia' in the OPEX BPC data model, however when I'm running the report I can see absolutely everything.
We are not connecting/using any BI cubes itself for this reporting. We are intrested only in the WEBI report based on BPC data models.
We were trying to use BPC data model (without any extra settings) as the source for BEx report, we were also trying to use virtual BPC data model as the source for Bex transient query - but non of these have helped.
Can you please advise how the authorisations should be set up for WEBI reporting on BPC data models?

Anybody can help with this issue please?

Missing values in F4-help in web reporting

Hallo everybody,
we have a problem with our F4-value help. When we open this value help in web reporting of bw 7 we only see in the value help a few entries and not all the contents of the master data table. We have checked the infoObject and query settings. Are somewhere in the system a hidden configuration which we haven't checked? The query is 7.x.
Thanks and regards!

Check the properties of your infoobject in advanced tab., in query designer
Currently you can see the values only posted and that is the default option.
If your requirement is to see all the values stored in master data then change the option in your query and as well as in Bex properties tab of your info object.
Hope this helps.
Regards,

Infoview option missing from interface / Cant run webi report

Hello all
I recently installed XI 3.1 enterprise version on my computer and the installation was sucessful, I can access deski, designer and all other expect infoview (webi).
When I try to view sample webi report , I get a message that ' Cannot perform this operations; no valid license found (Error;INF)
Also when I try to open a new document and when I click on New, I dont even see an option for infoview.
My friend installed at the same time and on his computer it is working fine.
I am using windows 2003 server.
I know the licence is valid as it is running for my firend and all other like designer etc are working fine so it seems like it is not the product key issue.
I woull appreciate if you guys help me on this as I have tried to installed it atleast 6 times now.
Thanks

Is your problem that you can't access InfoView or is it that you can't access WebI reports from InfoView?
If InfoView is working OK but you can't access WebI reports, I would look at a couple of things.
1. In the CMC, go to License Keys
2. Make sure that your license key is a "Premium" key. If it's a "Professional" key then is sounds like you only have access to Deski.
3. Go back to the main screen in the CMC and click on Applications.
2. Then go to the properties for Web Intelligence.
3. Then go to User Security.
Make sure that your user ID has access to WebI.

Reschedule multiple missed webi reports

We have a large number of scheduled webi reports that did not run for whatever reason. Is there a way to find all the pending scheduled reports and reschedule them? Or do we have to recreate the schedules for each report?

What version of BOE/CRS is this?
In any case, the Instance Manager, available in the Administration Launchpad on XI R1/R2 and within the CMC on XI 3.0+/CRS 2008 should give you what you need.
