New reporting features

hi,
any new reporting features provided on XI 3.0 side?
cheers

Hi Pali,
Please find the new features available in XI3.0
1> Web Intelligence XI 3.0 introduces Smart Measures to delegate aggregation to the database.
2> New querying functions are available in XI Release 3 are:
a> Optional Prompt: Allows you to define a prompt as optional when building a query. The SQL generated for the query depends on how the report user responds or declines to respond to the prompt.
b> The Explicit empty string: Allows the report user to retrieve rows that have an empty value with the explicit empty string in a list of values.
c> Delegated LOV Search: Allows you to delegate the search for values in a LOV to the database. This feature prevents the LOV from being automatically loaded and the user from refreshing it. The user can perform a search for a pattern in the database. This feature restricts the data set returned and limits the load time to one acceptable to the user.
For example, when using an optional prompt, you can prevent the LOV from loading automatically because you are not sure the report user wants to respond to the prompt. This can save the user some time.
d> Percentage Rank: Enhances the existing u201CRanku201D query filter that bases the ranking on the top or the bottom of a given measure. The Percentage rank allows you to rank a percentage of the dimension volume, sliced (or not), on a second dimension.
The ranking is performed at the database level and is database specific. This feature is only available in the Java Report Panel Query view.
e> Query Sampling: Allows you to define random, seeded sampling in the query. The sampling is performed at the database and is database-specific.
This is different from the maximum number of rows retrieved option at the microcube level.
The formula functions can be divided into functions that allow Web Intelligence to close the gap with Desktop Intelligence, and formula enhancements.
3> Functions that close the gap with Desktop Intelligence are:
a> Forcemerge: When applied to a measure, this allows Web Intelligence to take into account for calculation merge dimensions even when they are not provided explicitly in the context of the calculation.
Forcemerge is similar to the Desktop Intelligence Multi cube function. It provides Web Intelligence with a calculation capability for synchronized data equal to that of Desktop Intelligence.
b> DataproviderType: Differentiates between personal data providers and universe data providers.
It is similar to the DataproviderType function in Desktop Intelligence.
BusinessObjects XI R3 Reference Guide: Web Intelligence
c> Product: Returns the product of a group of numeric values. It is similar to the Product function in Desktop Intelligence.
d> NoDrillfilter: Ignores a drill filter. It is similar to Nofilter in Desktop Intelligence.
e> If-Then-Else syntax. It is similar to the If-Then-Else control structure in Desktop Intelligence.
4> Formula enhancements include:
a> UserResponse: Returns value index from data provider.
b> IsPromptAnswered: Complements UserResponse for optional prompts.
c> LastExectionDuration: Returns query duration.
d> Mode: Returns most frequent value.
e> ElseIF: Allows you to use simplified syntax which makes it easier to use.
f> Where extensions: Handles new cases such as [Days]Where [Sales]>100
g> ReportName: Returns the report name.
h> RefValue: Returns the previous value when tracking data changes.
Like the Smart Measure, these features improve query performance. The features use database-specific syntax to improve performance and allow for optimization on each vendoru2019s internal architecture
Thanks,
Madhu.

New Reporting Currency won't Convert

Hey Experts!
We're running BPC v 5.1.502 for Microsoft SQL.
I've recently setup the Currency Conversion features with BPC. I was able to successfully convert LC Values to both USD and EUR. These 2 Currencies were already setup as Reporting currencies by somebody else, probably years ago.
Now, I then tried to add the CAD currency to the conversion process, but for some reason when the "FX Restatement" Task is run, the system only converts the USD and EUR values. It seems to ignore the CAD currency.
I've validated the following:
I have rates existing for the CAD currency in the tblFactRate table.
For the CAD record in my InputCurrency Dimension, I have "Y" in the reporting field and have defined the same Group that is used by USD and EUR.
In my Groups Dimension, I've ensured that CAD is available, has a "Y" in the Reporting Column an dhas a Currency_Type = 'R'
Everything is set correctly on the Rate, RateEntity, RateSrc, and RptCurrency Dimensions as well.
What else am I missing? Why will the first two rates calculate, but not the 3rd?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Sean

I'm running Script Logic and even though I have Processed all Dimensions, processed the application and optimized trying to get this thing to work; I figured I'd try your advice on saving and validating the script. Well, this fixed it! I'm now able to get my new Reporting curency to convert LC values.
Thank you so very much for this information. It would be nice if it were documented somewhere that the Script Logic has to be re-validated and saved after adding a new Reporting Currency.
Now, to follow up, if I add more reporting currencies, do I need to optimize and process the entire application after each new currency? Or is that overkill? Thanks again for your advice!

New Zones features in Solaris 10 Beta 5

Solaris 10 Beta 5 (otherwise known as Software Express 7/04) should be
available shortly via the download link
http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/solaris-express/get.html
For more information on what's available in the release, please see the
already posted documentation
http://docs.sun.com/db/doc/817-0547
There are some new Zones features in this release that folks might be
interested in
* Command line editing and history for zonecfg(1M)
With support from the the libtecla(3LIB) library, zonecfg(1M) now has
command line editing and history support which should help in creating
and/or modifying a zone's configuration.
* Configuring UFS, UDFS, HSFS and PCFS file systems through zonecfg(1M)
Starting with this release, users can specify ufs, udfs(7FS), hsfs(7FS)
and pcfs(7D) file systems as part of the zone's configuration. For
example, if /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s7 is a block device that you want to
dedicate to a zone under the name /mydata, it can be added as follows:
# zonecfg -z myzone
zonecfg:myzone> add fs
zonecfg:myzone:fs> set dir=/mydata
zonecfg:myzone:fs> set special=/dev/dsk/c0t0d0s7
zonecfg:myzone:fs> set raw=/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s7
zonecfg:myzone:fs> set type=ufs
zonecfg:myzone:fs> end
zonecfg:myzone> commit
zonecfg:myzone> ^D
This file system will automatically get mounted under the name /mydata
inside the zone when it is booted or made "ready".
* NFSv4 client support for Zones
Zones can now be NFSv4 clients although in this release the default is
to begin negotiating as NFSv3 clients. To configure a zone to
negotiate NFSv4, the NFS_CLIENT_VERSMAX parameter in /etc/default/nfs
should be uncommented and set to "4".
* The new -z and -Z options to ps(1)
The new -z option can be used to select only processes in the given
list of zones. For example, the command "ps -z twilight,16,myzone"
will print those processes from the zones with the names "twilight",
"myzone" and the zoneid 16.
The -Z option automatically adds a ZONE field to the existing reports
as the first column.
The Zones team would appreciate hearing feedback from our customers on
these new features and any other Zones issues or questions that you
might have.

In the README file for the 07/04 release it says that there's a problem with some 64bit runtime libraries missing from the SUNWlibC package. I'm a bit unsure about where to download this package from. Do you have the link to the page it is refering too???

Develop new Report for Summarized JIT (Just In Time) calls

Hi to all,
Can anybody kindly tell me how to develop new report for summarized JIT (Just In Time) calls.
Thanks in advance,
Regards
Simi

I think it is a good feature, but I'd like to make some suggestions.
1) When the dialog pops up (like your attachment), it would be nice if I could tell it right then that I don't care about that advice. Right now you have to click on the link and then say you don't want the advice in the future. I think it is that extra step that is really annoying. I think, like most people, my instinct is to just close the dialog. Then next time I run LabVIEW I have to deal with it again. After the 5th time dismissing the damn thing I turn it off.
2) It would be nice to have an easy way to turn JIT advice off for a particular session. For example, I'm called on to help get new employees up to speed in LabVIEW. When I sit down at their computer to help design/debug things, I would really like to turn off JIT advice but just for my session. I don't want to change the other persons settings.
3) It would also be nice to be able to turn off JIT advice without going to the options.
So, I guess what I would like is this. When the JIT advice dialog comes up, instead of only having the link to the advice I'd like to see some a button that will turn off this topic in the future, a button that will turn it off for this session of LabVIEW and a button that will turn JIT off for good (with a verification dialog).
So, experience programmers with a new install will just turn it off for good the first time it pops up. Experience programmers on someone else's machine can turn it off without messing up the other persons ini file and I can leave it on when LV8 comes out and just dismiss the old advice quickly as it comes up.

ARD 3.3.2 does not create new reports

Hi all!
I am running ARD 3.3.2 on my MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.6.2
All my clients are on ARD client 3.3.2 as well but run Mac OS X 10.4.11 or 10.5.8.
Since I've updated to 10.6 and ARD 3.3.2 i am not able to create new reports (with rebuild with new data check box activated) on any client system. ARD starts the task and stays in the status "waiting for report data" (which is translated from its German version and might be called a little different in English).
And there it stays--- for a very long time until I get an task failed message.
All clients are in the same network segment as I am. I am able to observe and control all machines as well as copy and install software onto them. Clients have no firewall activated.
All clients have one Admin User installed , which is allowed to make full use of ARD functions. When adding the clients to my ARD Computer list I used this Admin User credentials.
Does the new ARD doesn't support older OSses any more??
Any ideas , how am I able to solve this and get reports going again???
Thanx
Holger
Message was edited by: Holger Bartsch (added some more detail to client setup)

I manage 400+ computers at a University using ARD 3.3.2 with Client 3.3.2. I can not generate reports and haven't been able ever since Snow Leopard came out. We also have a developer account and there is no upgrade or version 4 in the works. Perhaps Apple's focus on giving iChat remote access has made them forget about Apple Remote Desktop, which is a shame because it's such a wonderful product.
We've been looking at Net School Support [http://www.netsupportschool.com/audio.asp] It's not as robust, but I can't continue spending money on a product/company that doesn't care about it's customer's problems. In general Apple's enterprise software efforts seem to be losing functionality instead of improving. OS 9 ARD had audio chat features, non-freezing screen lock and of course, working report generation.

New GL features (Profit Center Segmentation) in SEM-BCS

Experts,
I'm planning to use New GL feature (Profit Center Segmentation) in ECC 6. I also intent to use SEM-BCS as consolidation report.
Can this New GL feature be used in SEM-BCS? Please let me know how to use them in SEM-BCS.
Thank you for your respond.

Sorry I was away.
I am in ECC 6 and the New GL report gives Profi center report . But I ca get the comfort like 8A ledger with drill down.
My doubt is will the new GL report takes care of all CO related transactions w/o GL?
Thanks, Chitra

Serious flaw with new "Package" feature?

How could this have been overlooked?
The Flaw: The new package feature doesn't consider linked images that are in opactiy masks. They are not copied to the new folder.
Can anyone else confirm this?
To test:
Create a new document.
Link unique image-1
Create a rectangle with a fill
Link unique image-2 into rectangle's opacity mask
Save file
Then choose Package, everything checked
When I do this, only 1 image is copied into the new links folder, image-1, while image-2 in the opacity mask is not copied and simply links to the original file/path.

Thanks, just submitted the bug, shown below. Hope it's fixed soon, was looking forward to this feature.
Might also request a feature. I wish the "go-to-link" in the links window actually goes to linked files that are in opacity masks, selecting it, not just center over it and leav you guessing which shape the opacity mask it is in.
******BUG******
New "Package" feature in Illustrator for Creative Cloud users does not package linked images that are in opacity masks:
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Create new document
2. Draw Rectangle and fill with color
3. Enter Rectangle's opacity mask
4. Place linked image (JPG, PSD) inside opacity the mask.
5. Exit opacity mask
6. Save file to desktop
7. Go to File > Package
8. Check everything, such as to copy links and create a links folder.
9. Save to new packaged folder
Results: New folder with only the AI file and text report. Report shows there are no linked images.
Expected results: New folder with AI file, Report file that mentions linked image, and a sub-folder named "links" containing the linked image in the document.
If the linked image is placed outside the rectangle's opacity mask, then Illustrator will copy the linked image to the new packaged folder. As is, this feature is broken. The first document I tried had 30+ linked images in opacity masks, none were packaged.

Report Generation: New Report.vi

Running applicaion in development mode works fine.
After compiling however I get Error 7: Open VI Reference in New Report.vi
Why am I getting this error?

Has the version of Office on your machine changed since you installed the Report Generation Toolkit? The VIs will become broken if the ActiveX interface changes, and this can happen when the Office version changes. I recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the toolkit. Also, what version of Report Generation Toolkit are you using? The latest version is 1.1.1.

P.S. - I'm going to respond to your other thread that you started with a link to this one. Instead of creating multiple messages on the same question, just wait for a response to your initial thread.

Error 7 occurred at open vi reference in New Report.VI

Hello!
I use the report generation toolkit on LabView 7.0 to create a report in Excel. The program works fine until I make an executable version. I the get the error:
Error 7 occurred at open vi reference in New Report.VI
I use the New Report.VI, Bring Excel to front.VI and Save Report To File.vi
Can you pleace help me!!!

Most likely, you did not include the required libraries in your build script. When building an executable in which you use the Report Generation Toolkit, you must include the _Word Dynamic VIs.vi from _wordsub.llb and _Excel Dynamic VIs.vi from _exclsub.llb as dynamic VIs on the Source Files tab.
Check this article for more info.

I am using Firefox 3.6 on my PC , and now, when I select File New Tab (Ctrl+T), no new Tab shows up. Nor does it show up when I click the new Tab symbol next to my other tabs. How can I get the New Tab feature to work again?

In the past 48 hrs, all of a sudden, the New Tab feature on my PC< using Firefox 3.56, simply stopped working. I did not change settings, or download a new version of Firefox. it just stopped working. There are other scenarios where it does still work (for example, if I want to open a link on a web page, I can right click and open the link in a new tab), but if I simply want to have multiple websites open at once on my PC, I am forced to have multiple versions of Firefox open, as my New Tab option seems to be disabled or something. Can you help?

Leliforever, cheek you list of installed add-ons, the Ask toolbar can be installed without the users knowledge.

Ok, I was able to figure out the functions that were confusing me. For my own record and for those that do not know, I will list how to create the objects necessary to add a new report to a menu.
1-Write JSP (should be written just how Oracle writes theirs)
2-Creat function for the new JSP page as System Administrator responsibility
3-Use Sys Admin to add the function to a menu somewhere
4-Using AK Developer responsibility, create an attribute with the label of the attribute being the name of your function you created. Oracle's convention is the name of the attribute has FS in it.
5-Using AK Developer, lookup the ASF_FUNC_SEC_REG region
6-Drill down into that regions attributes
7-Add a your newly created attribute to this region
You would do all these steps for your advanced search page as well, so that in your main jsp, you can call asfPage.setAdvancedSearchPage() with the attribute name of your advanced page.
What I Still do not know is:
(1) My main page keeps coming up saying that there is no default query defined for it. How do you create a default query for a report?
(2) How to get the personalization to work.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!

LV 8 problem with New Report.vi in compiled program

I'm a novice LV programmer trying to finish my first project. The project is the automation of an air flow stand using field point for acquisition/control. Have the code written and everything seems to work fine until I compile. Specifically, I get an error when I attempt to open an Excel template (XLT) using the New Report.vi included in the report generation add on. When the compiled executable run I get a message with the header "Error 7 occured at Open VI reference in New Report vi>report2.vi>auto air flow testing.vi . And then in the body of the message is says:
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: File not found. The file might have been moved or deleted, or the file path might be incorrectly formatted for the operating system. For example, use \ as path separators on Windows, : on Mac OS, and / on Linux.
NI-488: Non-existent board.
VI Path: C:\builds\auto air flow\My Application\auto air flow 1a.exe\Excel_Open.vi
Built Application or Shared Library (DLL): Make sure all dynamically loaded VIs were properly included in the build specification for the application or shared libr
The input to the New Report.vi template connector is C:\Air Flow Data Files\templates\psc.xlt. Again this works in design so I believe the formatting is correct and the file does exist.
Why would this work in design environment but not the compiled program? I recompiled several times and even tried reinstalling the report generation tool kit. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. I will be happy to supply more info if necessary. thanks.

Okay, I found the solution by doing a search here on 'Error 7". My thanks to those who have posted the solution in the past. Regards

Hi Leo22,
Does this error occur if you use any of the example programs that come shipped with LabVIEW? I would try opening one of the examples that write data to Word and see if those give you an error. Also, have you tried just putting down a New Report.VI and change the report type to Word? If this simple vi (that's all you need to open Word) breaks, I would check to see if there are any instances of Word still open. Check the task manager to see if any word processes are still open. There should not be a problem accessing Word 2003 from LabVIEW 7.0. If neither of these solutions work, please give some more detail about your application and we can research further. Thanks!

我愿自己是个胡萝卜，可以自己自足啦!

我明白您的意思，也可以按您所说的作，
但是open vi peference这个vi是labview提供的标准new report.vi的子vi中使用到的，如果我手动修改open vi peference中的提供的word路径，也就是说labview提供的模块也要自己修改了??
