NSD cutom reports ?

Hi,
I'm testing NSD. Installed appliance, configured and started exploring ....
As I can see it is possible to import custom reports.
I've read the documentation and it states :
" the reporting capability of the system has been extended through the integration with Pentaho Design Wizard"
"To create a report using Pentaho Report Design Wizard: Start Pentaho Report Design Wizard" ......
Nice. How do I start it ?
Must I first download it form Pentaho and install it ?
How do I configure db connections ?
Further in documetation :
"NOTE:For more information about configuring Pentaho and customizing parameters, see the following Articles in the support Knowledge Base:
- Enhancing LiveTime Custom Reports
- Creating Custom Reports within LiveTime"
While searching through KB I found no Articles like that.

SRM-EBP: Link in mailbox to view cutomized report

Hi All,
I have a requirement to show the report to EBP managers. SRM will send the link to manager's email inbox to execute the report. Manager will logon to EBP system.
Is it possible to show the report directly or manager needs to execute that manually?
Is it possible to send the dynamic link to manager's inbox as the link remains same whatever you click by using URL (As some JavaScript or BSP runs).
Can you please provide me any clue?
Thanks - Kumar

The question is processed in the thread

The option for Switch List is being excluded from the PF-Status when the calling report is not the RFITEM*.
Include LFI_ITEMSF01, Line 379
* list refresh and toggle: only if called by RFITEM**
if caller_repid(6) ne 'RFITEM'.
    wa_extab-fcode = 'REFR'.
    append wa_extab to rt_extab.
    wa_extab-fcode = 'LTOG'.      " Switch List option
    append wa_extab to rt_extab.
endif.
You can replace your Z program name in your Z include or change the condition like
if caller_repid(8) ne 'Z_RFITEM'.
endif.
I assume that your Z program name is Z_RFITEM

Need to upgrade 9.2.0.6 rac to 10.2.0.4 rac

Hi All,
I need to upgrade 9.2.0.6 2 node rac to 10.2.0.4 2 node rac under 11.5.10.2 EBS
Env Details:
Total 4 nodes:
1st node: Web and forms
2nd node: web and forms
3rd node: Reports, PCP node1, DB node1
4rth node: reports, PCP node2, DB node 2
OS env linux-86-64 2.9 on all the 4 nodes.
Only financial modules are running with some cutomized reports.
Please help me with some or other doc IDs atleast..
Thanks a mil in advance.
Cheers

I'm in the process of upgrading EBS 10.2.0.4 from 9.2.0.8 RAC to 10.2.0.4 RAC.
I was not able to find any one document that provides a procedure to upgrade EBS on RAC. I'm cobbling together a procedure from the following Metalink notes:
362203.1 - Interoperability Notes - Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i with Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0)
316889.1 - Complete Checklist for Manual Upgrades to 10gR2 (DB Upgrade Assistant failed for me...)
362135.1 - Configuring Oracle Applications Release 11i with Oracle 10g Release 2 Real Application Clusters and Automatic Storage Management (we're not doing ASM tho).
Hope that helps. If you happen to run across a Metalink note that does address upgrading an EBS database that is already RAC, please reply :-)

How to check the ALV output for the background job

Hi Guru,
We are having a cutomized report which will display the result like a ALV report.
We configured it as an background job, after the completion of the background job, it will send the result to the SPOOL, and we can use SP02 to check the output,
But it is not easy for user to directly check the result easily, is there an method we can save it as an spreadsheet and send the output to a specific location or mailbox and then user can check it easily
thanks,

In SM37 ,select the Job > Spool > Select Spool No > Display Contents > Here it will show you the Output of the Report.Now select Ctrl +Shift + F12 , it will ask you to save the Spread sheet in specified location.

How to increase spool file width?

Hi,
I've a spool file with lot of columns. When I display it (in graphical format) through SM37, the columns appear in two rows and thus it becomes difficult to understand the data.
How can I increase the width so that all columns appear in a single row?
Regards,
Vikrant.

Hi,
I suppose that the report you executed to have this list is a cutom report.
If it's the case you will have to add the following extra statement (in bold) in your report to define the number of columns during output
REPORT ZREPNAME LINE-SIZE 132.
... LINE-SIZE col
Creates a report with col columns per line.
If the LINE-SIZE specification is missing, the line length corresponds to the current screen width. The system field SY-LINSZ contains the current line size for generating lists. The maximum width of a list is 1023 characters. You should keep lists to the minimum possible size to improve useability and performance (recommendation: LINE-SIZE < 132). For very wide lists (LINE-SIZE > 255), you should consult the notes for using LINE-SIZE
Hope that the following info will help you
Regards

Monitor multiple databases for expiring passwords?

I have created a cutom report in Grid Control that sends a daily report to the DBAs each morning that reports on nonresponsive agents, failed backups, policy violations, etc. I would like to add a section for expired passwords but I'm unable to find that information in the repository. The closest I've come is an alert for "There have been x failed login attempts in the last 30 minutes." but I'd like something that would alert me before the password expires, ideally some configurable number of days before the expiration. Is that information available in the repository? I have considered a user-defined metric but we monitor around 150 databases that do not have common usernames or passwords so I think that would be difficult to maintain.

"I have considered a user-defined metric but we monitor around 150 databases that do not have common usernames or passwords so I think that would be difficult to maintain."
The default profile and all our end-user profiles have password expiration set to 90 days.
What I have done for now is decrease the threshold of the "Failed Login Count" metric to 3 for the Warning threshold since that is the number of attempts a user gets before locking the account. That at least will alert the DBAs if a user has locked an account or an application or automated process is attempting to connect to an expired account.
What would be ideal is if I could report on passwords that have not yet expired but are near the expiration time without having to connect to each database to check but it appears that information is not available in the oem respository.

ORA-30027:Undo quota violation failed to get 92 (Bytes)

Hi All,
When running the accrual cutom report and it was taking long time and then it errors out.
Error is "ORA-30027:Undo quota violation failed to get 92 (Bytes)".
I asked Asked DBA to increase undo quota, or wait until other transactions to commit before proceeding
and DBA replied like "We have over 5GB of undo space--that's a huge amount for a single report to use".
Please let me know, any idea how to fix this issue?
Thanks,
Prasad Raju

To view reports in new page for each cutomer using Report Designer

HI all
I have a requirement to view the data (key figures) for each customer in a new page.
I have created the same using the Report Designer tool.
Now there is setting for this Group Header 'Customer' i have selected the option 'repeat group header on each page'
still the query when generated, gives fine results for certain cases but not for all.
like it will show the each customers in a fresh page for some pages , then in midst there would some 2-3 customers in the same page.
There is no relation between these customers , they are same as the other customers, no difference at all.then i am not able to figure out the reason why it is behaving so odd.
Thanks
Ramesh

Ramesh,
right now there really is no way to solve what you are looking for. There partial solutions, but you will not be able to force a page break in a dynamic report.
Here is what I have faced, and what I have come up with so far:
I have a series of reports that have the same column heading, but spread over 5 pages in a fixed structure. I need to be able to re-use the header and the general report design with 6 reports. Here is my solution:
1. Create an outline of the report. I did all the formatting by creating a report section for each page. You can force page breaks between the pages. Upgrade to patch 1502 (came out last week) and you will see some new functionality (such as fit to page, page numbers, etc).
2. Insert all you page breaks and do all the formatting.
3. Insert an infoprovider. Once in, you can just drag and drop the key figure cells into your formatted report.
4. Create additional modification for formatting as needed.
This fixes my problem (for now), but I had to do a lot of work to come up with this. Also, the latest patch (1501 and 1502) has created an issue for me - there is a null exception when I try to use a variable or a filter value in the report body - I can't save the report. I have an OSS message out, but our BASIS guys are going to be taking the lead on troubleshooting this.
The reason that you are seeing some customers on the new pages is probably because of "how the cookie falls" - they just fit that way.
I am trying to be positive and overcome the limitations that are in place right now. If my technical issue is solved, I would recommend upgrading to the new patch (1403 is the latest stable one in my opinion)
good luck

Can cutomer with their Primary user ID run reports?

Hi,
Can customer with their user ID and password run reports in iStore?
Thanks and regards,
Ashish Indapawar

Hello Ashish,
You may meet some of your requirements by making customizations to the Order Tracker. Guidelines are in this document:
How can the iStore Order Tracker include additional fields? (Doc ID 334385.1)
This is the only reporting within the iStore Customer UI.
Otherwise, you need to run the reports via the Oracle Applications and give the user access to the application responsibility.

Debbie

Regarding planning data not available in reports

HI SdN,
In my reports I'm populating actual data and planning data.But as of now we have only actual data display's in our report.what we are doing is we are populating data in BW and analysing on the base of the product cutomer (compounded) combination which is coming from r/3.(groups and sub-groups which we are entering at r/3 )
So our report shows us on the base of groups and sub groups which we are entering at r/3 level.That all is working fine but our customer wants that planning data is also displays in the reports as of now it is showing not assigned values in report.
so my question is ,To display planning data for group and sub groups provided by r/3 on the basis of product and customer (though other reports are showing planning data) , I know that I need to include this compounded infoobject in bps cubes but shall I also need to consider this in the BPS functions?I'm confused here and not sure about this.
And is that mandatory to have that componded infoobject mapped from underlying ods for customer.Because as of now planning cube is only updated with BPS functions?
Could you pls advice?
R

Hi Rubane
If the actuals and planning data are in seperate cubes then you will need to create a multi over both cubes to report on them together. However your BPS planning must be done against the same infoobject for you to be able to report on them together. If you are planning against the same IO the groupings from R3 will apply.
Also include the infoobject 0REQUID as a characteristic restriction and restrict it to variable 0S_RQMRC (Most Current Data)

There are couple of Standard Report for Customer Open Items.
RFDOPO00 - List of Customer Open Items.
RFDSLD00 - Cutomer Balances
Also there is another standard report....
Run the Tcode 'S_ALR_87012178", that is "Customer open Item analysis by Balance of Over dues".
Copy the Report and make necessary changes.
Modification is always required to get a "good looking" aging report, there is no standard.
Hope this helps.

Linking a WEBI report through hyperlink in a webpage using open document

Hi All,
I have a hyper link in a web page which when clicked should open a WEBI report. I created it using the open document feature.
Once clicking on the link, InfoView login credential page is displayed. After logging in the report runs.
My client does not want the login page to be displayed since most of the users does not remember their password (since SSO is implemented).
He wants to bypass this login page so that most of the users can directly view the reports.
Question:
Is there a way to achieve this i.e without asking for login credentials or by passing this?
Possibilities :
1: To create ID's for all the people (which I think is not a feasible option in my project)
2: Create a guest account with minimum privileges and share the password with all the users.
Note:
1: I use BO XI R 3.1.
2: No SDK is installed to do any programming.
Any suggestion are most welcome.
Thanks in advance
Shreyas

Hi Shreyas,
Manual Easy Way for doing the activity in SAP Business Objects 4.0:
This method is useful if we have a special system account that we want everyone to use.
You will notice that all we do is generate a logon token using the appropriate username, password and CMS variables. Then we append the token onto ivsLogonToken.
Note: The numbers on the url after /BOE/portal represents the timestamp of the last patch or install. You can put whatever you want under the number section and Business Objects will automatically redirect to the appropriate start.do
Step I:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
Step II:
You can copy the contents from the custom.jsp that I’ve provided below to your custom.jsp.
Cutom.JSP File
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKException" %>
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.framework.*" %>

//BO Session and redirect to Infoview
IEnterpriseSession enterpriseSession;
/* * Set Enterprise Logon credentials. */
final String BO_CMS_NAME = "bi4server";
final String BO_AUTH_TYPE = "secEnterprise";
final String BO_USERNAME = "Daya";
final String BO_PASSWORD = "admin@123";
ILogonTokenMgr logonTokenMgr;
String defaultToken = "";

boolean loggedIn = true;
try {
//Create session token
enterpriseSession = CrystalEnterprise.getSessionMgr().logon(Daya,admin@123, BI4SERVER,Enterprise);
logonTokenMgr = enterpriseSession.getLogonTokenMgr();
defaultToken = logonTokenMgr.createWCAToken("", 20, 1);
//Redirect with token attached to the ivsLogonToken parameter
response.sendRedirect("http://"+BO_CMS_NAME+":8080/BOE/portal/1205291547/InfoView/logon/start.do?ivsLogonToken="+Encoder.encodeURL(defaultToken));

Edit the username,Password & BOBJ Server Name'in BOLD Letter
Step III:
Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
Step IV:
Trusted Authentication:
Trusted Authentication is a component of Enterprise authentication that integrates with third-party single sign-on solutions, including Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS). Applications
that have established trust with the Central Management Server can use Trusted Authentication to allow users to log on without providing their passwords.
This method is really cool because users don’t even have to know their passwords. Basically with this method you can log into another system and if that system has the appropriate user name, you can pass it to the custom.jsp and then it will log you into BI Launchpad.
In addition, you don’t need to create any java code for the enterprise token setup.
Step V:
In the CMC, go to Authentication, then select Enterprise. Check Trusted Authentication is enabled, then click on New Shared Secret. Finally download the shared secret key and keep it somewhere secure
Step VI:
Copy global.properties from <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\default into <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\custom. Then using Notepad or another text editing utility, edit the following properties
sso.enabled=true
trusted.auth.user.retrieval=WEB_SESSION
trusted.auth.user.param=UserName
trusted.auth.shared.secret=<secret code from properties file you created in step 2>
Step VII:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
<\!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

</script>
</head>

<a href="javascript:goToLogonPage()">Click this to go to the logon page of BI launch pad</a>

Edit the username(Daya) variable
Step VIII:
Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
