MS Word from Web Report

I need to produce reports that can be saved to a file and also be exported to or read by MS Word. Is this possible with a web report?
I have been unable to save any reports run on the web in either HTML, HTMLCSS, or PDF formats. Doing a copy paste of an HTML report from a browser to MS Word produces very uneven results. Do I need to set up my users with the Reports Thin client and Net8 and use command line arguments or can I use a web report to do this?
Thank you.

We normally run to a file (because of two of
those problems: we can postprocess the file
to get valid Unicode and the correct font),
but I just tried something to cache and it
built a (fairly) good RTF file.
I.e, we usually have:
desformat=RTF
destype=file
desname=<blah.rtf>
Oracle is running on Solaris, browser is
running on a DOS box via jinitiator 27 or
so. That may matter to you?
-- Allan Plumb
(Now, if I could only figure out why an
embedded graphic in a report works when
I ask for PDF or RTF but fails for HTML?
Only from the web, OK from report builder.
Sigh.)

  • Export graphs from Web report

    Hi.
    I need to copy graphs from web reports in 3.5.To do this, i have followed a roundabout:
    1. Save the page as mht (web archive file)
    2.Copy the image from there and paste into Powerpoint or wherever required.
    Is there any better way to do it? Or can I bring the save as mht option in the context menu?
    Is SAP addressing it any soon?
    Also is there any way to send graphs in addition to the tables via the 'distribute as email option"?
    Cheers

    When you broadcast using the standard template the template '0QUERY_TEMPLATE_BROADCASTING' is used for broadcasting. This template only has a navigation block and table item, this is the reason why the chart is not displayed in this template. If you create a custom template for broadcasting which has chart item in it you will be able to get the chart displayed (it will be always displayed.) See the attached link for custmoizing.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3a/0e044017355c0ce10000000a1550b0/content.htm
    You can also override this behaviour if you attach the query to a custom web template, in this case when you broadcast you will get exactly what you see in the current report.

  • Calling SAP transaction from Webi report?

    Hi experts,
    With BI/BW query, we can retrieve data from R/3 source system via report-to-report interface. For instance, from a Purchasing query with data aggregated by Vendor, the user can trigger the R/3 transaction ME2L by clicking on a row.
    Is there a similar feature in BOBJ Webi report? For instance, can we use hyperlink or some other means to do this?
    Any idea will be much appreciated.
    Thanks and regards,
    Linda

    Hi Stratos,
    Really appreciate your advice. Following your suggestion of using blank cell, the server is determined dynamically for the hyperlink.
    However, there're still some issues with defining a hyperlink for table columns. For instance, I have 2 columns in the table - Cost Centre and Cost Element. SAP transactions KS03 and KA03 are to be launched respectively for these 2 columns. The value of the clicked column (Cost Centre, Cost Element) is to be passed to the SAP transaction.
    I've created the following hyperlink for the Cost Centre column:
    http://[[MyServer]]?sap-client=([Client])&sap-language=EN&~transaction=KS03
    with Tool Tip = [[L01 Cost Center Key]]
    The link is not working immediately, so I adjusted the formula as follows via the formula editor (by adding double quotes for <MyServer>):
    ="<a href=\""[[MyServer]]"?sap-client="URLEncode(""[[Client]])"&sap-language=EN&%7Etransaction=KS03\" title=\"\" target=\"_self\" nav=\"web\">"[[L01 Cost Center Key]]+"</a>"
    Clicking the <tick> button does not return any error.
    When I click on the Cost Center column, the SAP transaction is launched successfully. However, there're still a few issues:
    1) The Cost Center Key is not passed to the SAP transaction. Is Tool Tip the way to go?
    2) When checking the hyperlink (via right-click > Hyperlinks > Edit Hyperlink), I found the Tool Tip (L01 Cost Center Key) has disappeared
    3) After I've clicked <OK> to exit the Edit Hyperlink window, I got the error message 'Invalid character '[[MyServer]]' at position 14. (Error: WIS10080)'.
    -- It seems correct syntax in the formula editor is considered invalid in the hyperlink editor.
    Do you mind commenting on what could have caused the above issues?
    Thanks again for your time.

  • Retrive SQL from Webi report and process it for large volume of data

    We have a Scenario where, we need to extract large volumes of data into flat files and distribute them from u2018Teradatau2019 warehouse which we usually call them as u2018Extractsu2019. But the requirement is such that, Business users wants to build their own u2018Adhoc Extractsu2019.   The only way, I thought, to achieve this, is Build a universe, create the query, save the report and do not run it. Then write a RAS SDK to retrieve the SQL code from the reports and save into .txt file and process it directly in Teradata?
    Is there any predefined Solution available with SAP BO or any other tool for this kind of Scenarios?

    Hi Shawn,
    Do we have some VB macro to retrieve Sql queries of data providers of all the WebI reports in CMS.
    Any information or even direction where I can get information will be helpful.
    Thanks in advance.

I need to show the report as a book with 69 sections (each section on new page). there are 69 sections on cost center and each cost center section has almost 10 sections embedded in it.

  • Company logo not appearing in PDF (generated from Web Report)

    Hello all,

    Thanks,

    Hi Sebastian,
    We've had the same issue and found no solution for this. There just isn't a way to add an image to a by SAP generated PDF file. The only thing that did work was adding the image to a report and adding the report to the web template. In that case the image is printed but on a seperate page.

  • ProcessdpCommandEx error when adding or removing object from WebI report (based on BEX query) query panel object list

    Hi,
    We have WebI reports build on BEX using BAPI connectivity. When we are trying to add a object in query panel in a existing report we are getting this ProcessdpCommandEx error. But error does not appear when we add at the end of the list of objects already added.
    Can you calrify whether this could be some setting issue or it is a known bug?
    Can you share SAP Note No in case it is a known bug?

    Hi Avijit,
    This error occurs in case of any failure in the connectivity. It is like the data providers are not getting processed.
    You have mentioned that the issue does not come with newly created reports
    Are you creating new reports on migrated universe or a newly created universe?
    If issue only comes with migrated universe, please check if the connection has been migrated properly and required middleware and database connectors are in place.
    If connections are in place, try importing and exporting the universe once and check.
    In case, new report works fine with migrated universe, then you can simply try to re-point the universe by editing the query and can run it again and check.
    Regards,
    Yuvraj

  • Images disappered from WebI reports

    Hi,
    No image (any type .gif, .jpg) is getting displayed in Web Intelligence XIR2 reports. The issue is with all the reports and apart from customized logo; default BusinessObjects logo/skin also doesnu2019t get displayed.
    This has happened suddenly (was working previously) however no changes have been done in BO installation or on system. The issue is not user or machine specific, occurs on server as well.
    The images are stored on the required location i.e. Install Dir/Program files/BusunessObjects 11.5/Images on server. Not using clustered environment.
    Please advice.

    Hi Alan,
    Thank you for the response.
    To point out the image URL path I used the following steps:
    1. Place the image in a separate virtual directory and make sure you can access the image file from the browser just by typing in the correct
    URL.                                                                               
    2. Use an absolute path in the Web Intelligence report. For example: http://webserver/images/mylogo.gif  
    However I am getting the following error message:
    'HTTP Status: /images/filename.gif'
    'The requested  resource /images/filename.gif is not available'.
    Please advice.
    Thanks,

  • Download to excel from web report generated through ITS

    We were on SAP 4.6B. We have several abap reports for which we have a web interface using ITS. On the broweser output we have provided a URL which reads 'Download to CSV file' . This has been achieved by modifying the function www_get_report. The mod first generates a unique filename and exports the name to the memory and generates the hyperlink. The abap report program ftp'ies a the csv file to the ITS server path as in the URL.
    Now we have upgraded to ECC 5.0 and we want to achieve the download to CSV option without the modification. What would be the best way to achieve this in the netweaver platform.

    Sofia,
    The same report query runs for downloading the data into excel, I don't think you can limit the number of records in download.
    You can achieve it using custom code, like on click of download excel redirect to another page and then restrict the data as per your need, or you can use the custom procedure to download the limited data.

  • Jumping from web report to Excel Analyzer and passing parameters?

    Hi,
    I have a web template/query which displays cost centres assigned to an individual user.  From this I want to click on a link and jump to Analyzer passing the value of the cost centre to the Analyzer workbook as a parameter.  The query in the workbook will then be restricted by the cost centre value.
    Any ideas on how I would achieve this would be appreciated.
    Wouldn't it be nice if STS allowed planning in Analyzer, I do not want to use the web for planning.
    Many thanks,
    Richard

    I don't think this works for 3 parameters, but I know it will work for 1. Maybe you can do something with it.
    1. Create a link to the destination component (YourProvider.YourLink)
    2. Use the code below to use that link to pass the value of a form field to the destination component. 'FieldName' is the field on the destination component you want to query, and '_FieldName_cond' is the condition. This creates the destination URL.
    3. wwa_app_module.set_target(l_url) will send you to the URL you generated.
    l_url := PORTAL.wwv_user_utilities.get_url('YourProvider.YourLink', 'FieldName', v_YourParameterValue, '_FieldName_cond', '=');
    portal.wwa_app_module.set_target(l_url);
    I'm not the best at this, but this works for me in most cases.
