Modifying Naviagtion Block in Web reports

Hi,
I have Fiscal Year Period as free characteristic on my report. Which means the user would be able to drill-down on fiscal year period for all the rows. But I do not want to allow users to drill-down (on fiscal period)on specific rows.
Can such a thing be possible in Web template..maybe using JavaScripts. Any advice/suggestion on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I don't know which logic you would need to use, but you should try to modify the logic of the navigation block with the table interface. Method nav_block_label
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/89/15843b11f28c7ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm
you find the contents for the drill-down icons in
C_CELL3_CONTENT and C_CELL4_CONTENT.

Modify Webi Report causes Java Plug-In Fatal Error

Environment: BOXIR2 SP3 Windows XP
Java loaded: Java 1.6.0_07 + JRE 1.4.2_04 + JInitiator 1.3.1.24
Hi,
I have been happily developing Webi reports on my PC for several years and to my knowledge, I have not upgraded my Java software even when I get prompted by Java that updates are available as I know how problematic upgrading can be if it is not supported by BO.
I am suddenly getting a Java Plug-In Fatal Error every time I try to modify a Webi report with the message " The Java Runtime Environment cannot be loaded".
We have uninstalled Java and re-installed the same Java versions but stil the same problem.
Any help appreciated.
Best Regards

Hi Ben
I remember having some issues running Java 1.6.0_xx on BOXI R2 and made sure we were on Java 1.4.2_xx.
Another thing you might want to try before uninstalling is to clear the Java cache, it can be found under...
local install drive\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache
If you also haven't already done so, I'd reload the current Java version (after your uninstall) directly from the server by trying to create or modify a new WEBI report.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Webi report runs in schedule in mins, times out when trying to modify

I have a Webi Report that runs in schedule copy sent to an inbox (takes a minute to run)
However when you try to modify refresh or edit in Webi on Infoview. The application just sits there with one green bar on progress bar, No Timeouts etc.
Any ideas?

To increase Java heap size on the client computer, check SAP NOTE# 1201179 - Error: "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError" when attempting to edit large Web Intelligence
Symptom
In BusinessObjects Enterprise XI Release 2, when attempting to edit large Web Intelligence documents, the Internet Explorer browser stops responding. In the Java console, the following error message appears:
"java.lang.OutOfMemoryError".
Cause
The error message occurs because the instance of Java on the client computer has reached its memory threshold.
Resolution
To edit large Web Intelligence documents, the default memory size on the client computer must be increased.
To increase the default memory size
Click Start > Control Panel > Java Plug-in > Advanced.
Type "-Xms128m or -Xms256m" for the Java Runtime Parameters.
Click Apply.
Close all Internet Explorer windows.
Retry the report.
To automate the process the user can also create a script file that will update the deployment.properties file on each users' workstation. The file is located under C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment folder.
Modify the deployment.javapi.jre.<version>.args parameter in the deployment.properties file and add the xms and xmx parameters, for eg:
deployment.javapi.jre.1.5.0_12.args=-Xms128m -Xms256m
The Web Intelligence document can now be edited successfully

Hi Swapna,
You could perform the following steps:
1. Login to CMC.
2. Go to Folders >> Manage >> Top Level Security
3. Click on Add Principal and add the user or group for which you have to set the security.
4. Click on assign Security >> Advanced tab >> Add/Remove Rights.
5. Select Content >> Web Intelligence Report
6. assignt "Edit Object" right as denied and click on apply ok.
This would help you to block edit option for only webi reports and all the webi reports in your environment.

Select 0 as 'Alias Name' in webi report modify screen

in SQL you can do this:
select sum(chequeamount) as ROInc_amt, 0 as Inc_amt
how can you do this in a webi report though when I try it doesnt parse what is the syntax to use?
BO Edge XI 3.0
App server: MS Win2003 Server Standard SP2
DB server: MS Win2003 Server Standard SP2
DB on DB server: SQL 2005

Try this:
At Universe Level, create an object:
Defination Tab:
    Name: 0 as Inc_amt
    Datatype: Number
    Select= 0
    Tables= point to any table
Properties Tab: Make it a measure
At report level, when you pull this object in Query Panel, code will appear as:
SELECT
0,   /you can alias it. SQL will validate/
sum(product_promotion_facts.promotion_cost),
Calendar_year_lookup.Yr
FROM
product_promotion_facts,
Calendar_year_lookup
WHERE
( product_promotion_facts.Week_id=Calendar_year_lookup.Week_id )
GROUP BY
0,

Modifying existing webi report BO 4.0

Hi Experts,
In pre-production system I executed webi report, went to Design mode --> Drag & drop a new object to the report. Then by mistake clicked on Save instead of "save As" This made changes to the original report.
I have below doubts, pls clarify.
1.) Will this affect the OLAP connection between report & data source?
2.) Do I need to made any connection again for this report somewhere?
3.) Will this affect the original report in production in any manner?
Thanks.

1.) Will this affect the OLAP connection between report & data source?
Since the changes were made only to the WebI report, there won't be any impact on the Connection.
2.) Do I need to make any connection again for this report somewhere?
Not needed. As mentioned before there will be no impact on the Connection.
3.) Will this affect the original report in production in any manner?
It will only impact if you migrate the report to Production. Revert back the changes in Pre-Prod box if it is small change else just ask the Admin team to do a reverse migration from Prod to Pre-Prod Box

I used a condition in a variable =if(Previous([Activity])=[Activity];0;1) and placing inside report.
But when i am giving block filter i am getting only the distinct activity and Time not as required output.
Please help...

Hi Sathish,
I am not 100% clear on what you are trying to do but you should be able to use a max() or min() function on the datetime, since it appears you are trying to get the first one (in which case you should use min()).
Does that help?
Thanks

How to add A single row at the middle of the table in a Webi report

Hi,
I created a Webi report using Universe(Created universe using bex query).Now i have a requirement to display a row at the middle of a report. Can you please tell me ,how to add a sigle row at the middle of a Webi report.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Monika

Hi Monika,
It is not really possible to add a row (I assume you mean of unrelated data) to the middle of a table in a report. You can add a new table with a single row between two tables. For instance you could add a new one row table, or even single cells which are positioned relatively between two tables. Possibly a block on top of another. But this gets tricky.
Can you explain in more detail what you are trying to do?
Thanks

URL error while executing a web report in WAD

Hi,
When I execute a web report through the Web Application Designer, I get the following error:
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://abcd.efghi.es:8000/sap/bw/BEx?
The following error was encountered:
Unable to determine IP address from host name for abcd.efghi.es
The dnsserver returned:
Name Error: The domain name does not exist.
This means that:
The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL.
Check if the address is correct.
But when I execute the web report with the IP of the machine http://123.456.7.893:8000/sap/bw/BEx?...........
I can execute my web report correctly.
I didn't find any options in the menu web template in order to modify the url generation.
Please help me to solve this problem.

How to limit the number of records in WebI Report

Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to display the WebI Report data only if the number if record is less than 65k.
Incase if the records are more than 65k then the report should be blank and a text message needs to be displayed.
The client dont want to set the number of records either in universe or at the edit query at the report. They want to limit once the report is executed.
Please let me know if its possible to do it at the report level.
Thanks in advance!!
Best Regards
SAP BO

Optional prompts are not a problem.
Assuming you first query uses the following SQL statement
select a,b,c from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...)
The query for checking the number of rows should use the following SQL code
select count(*) from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...)
The original query should be modified as follows
select a,b,c from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...) AND (select count(*) from t where x=y and z=@prompt(...)) < 65000

How to import a Webi report from XI 3.0 to XI 2.0

Hi All
I have a requirement to open a webi report (*.wid) from XI 3.0 in XI 2.0, any ideas how i get this file in the XI2.0 CMS?
thanks

XI 3.0 is only backward compatible with XI R2 to the extent that XI R2 client tools can connect to an XI 3.0 repository (this is available only to not require multiple versions of client tools during a migration).
This said, a Webi report modified/migrated to/created in XI 3.0 cannot be imported into XI R2.

Hide author properties from a WebI report?

Hello,
I need to u201CHideu201D the report Author from the properties in a Webi report.
Can I do it with WebI Extension Points (Java or DHTML) or with REBEAN?
Thanks,
Paul

Hello,
There no fine-grained control over the "Document Properties" frame specific to visibility of the "Created by:" field displayed, either in the Java Report Panel or DHTML Interactive Editor Extension Points.
You can try editing the Interactive Editor JSP file that controls that panel - it's relatively straightforward - but that would take your deployment out of support.
One way for definiteness would be - instead - to modify the "createdby" Web Intelligence document property to something else, using ReportEngine Java SDK:
documentInstance = reportEngine.openDocument(id);
properties = documentInstance.getProperties();
properties.setProperty(PropertiesType.AUTHOR, "pookie");
documentInstance.setProperties(properties);
documentInstance.save();
Of course, this isn't what you want if you want to keep the "Created by:" field, but merely prevent it from being displayed in the viewers.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Query level filter not working in Webi report

Hi All,
I am using BOXI R3.1 (SP3), m facing one problem when refreshing Webi report on daily basis. I am using three query level filter as a prompt, but i checked one filter is not working then i need to reapply this filter and rest 2 filter is working fine.
Can anyone suggest me why problem is coming?
Regards,

Hi,
Prompts are interactive, and come from the query panel. Filters are not interactive, and are set on the report or block. There are also input controls, which are interactive filters
1. Select the universe in the list of universes to open the Query Panel.
2. Drag the Year object to the Result Objects pane.
3. Drag the Number of Guests object to the Query Filters pane and create a report filter that restricts Number of Guests to greater than n.
4. Click Combined Query.
The Combined Query pane appears in the bottom left of the Query panel with the two queries joined by UNION.
5. Click on the second query and remove the Year and Number of Guests objects.
6. Drag the Reservation Year object to the Result Objects pane.
7. Drag the Future Guests object to the Query Filters pane and create a report filter that restricts the future guests to greater than n.
8. Click Run Query.
Best Regards

Bex Hierarchy issue on Webi report

Hello Experts,
We are facing issues on use of Bex hierarchy in webi report,
Issue statement: We have webi report on bex query which have table and chart with input control on year and month to filter the report, table and chart uses hierarchy object to disply data. When we refresh report table and chart shows data with hierarchy on first level but once we check or uncheck any value from input control hierarchy in table and chart gets expanded and shows as flat structure. to get correct behaviour we have to collaps hierarchy.
Above behaviour happens for all report level filter like, block filter, drill filter, input control.
Please help me to know this is a bug or something wrong happened with development.
Regards,
Priyank Bhayani

Hello Everyone,
I have got SAP note which states this is expected behaviour hence closing the discussion.
1702356 - Hierarchy Nodes expanded automatically to all levels after selecting value in the input control in a webi report.
