Get Job_Id after Scheduling BI Publisher Report

Hi
We are running the BI Publisher reports from Unix shell scripts. Please find below one sample code of the shell script
## Start Script
wsdl_url="......."
job_name="TEST"
user_id="TST"
pwd="TST1"
java Scheduler $1 $2 $wsdl_url $job_name $user_id $pwd
## End Script
Parameter $1 and $2 are report parameters and Report name. After running this script, I need to capture JOB_ID and get the status from table XMLP_SCHED_OUTPUT for the corresponding JOB_ID.
Can you please tell me how to get JOB_ID.
Thanks
Prasun

what is the scheduler program does ?
Did u write this java code ?
if so, you can send the value out of that and capture it in shell.

Can we schedule BI publisher report through pl/sql?

Hi,
If any new user is created and given "schedule report" privilege,
instead of logging to bipublisher portal with the user's id and scheduling individual report I want to have a pl/sql package which when fired, if finds any new user should run those reports and save output for the user.
For these I should call the bipublisher report in pl/sql through scheduler schema, set parameter values, provide run_interval, output_format etc.
Please let me know if this is possible and also give example code.
This is urgent requirement. Please reply ASAP.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi,
am also having same requriment, if u did plz guide me.
Thanks.

OBIEE Integration existing BI Publisher Report

I am trying to look for a work around exposing BI Publisher report via OBIEE Dashbaord;
Originally; I used the gadget to link directly to the BI Publisher report and selected the relative path to open; I noticed, in having 10 links on one dashboard that it was hammering performance. When I removed these BI Publisher links Dashboard ran pretty quick. I though originally by selecting 'Link' on Bi Publisher gadget that it was just a link; This assumption doesn't seem to be the case; As work arounds I have tried to use Link and Guided Navigation gagdets; but when I use these (when user selects it doesn't seem to carry user credentials to BI Publisher and requires login)
Has anyone experienced a similar situation and can anyone think of a work around
Thank you in advance for your help

Excel output for the xml publisher report when it is [b]scheduled [/b]

How to get the excel output for the xml publisher report when it is scheduled by a apps user? Like what is the user profile option (for the apps user who runs the report) and what are the other things that needs to be taken care of so that only this xml publisher report run by this apps user produces a EXCEL output (When scheduled) ???
Really appreciate it if any one can help me in this regards.
Thanks
Munna

Hi Munna,
For eBusiness Suite (apps user) the report output is stored the same way whether executed immediately or scheduled.,To get excel set the options > output format to Excel. Only the user that submitted the report can view it, or you can get the output file from the server. Or you can set the notify option so that a Workflow Notification is sent when the request completes.

Put BI Publisher report in dashboard without OBIEE

Hi All,
I created a BI Publisher report, unfortunately, we don't have OBIEE, I can create a button to call the report from APEX, but how do I change it to dashboard report without OBIEE?
Appreciate your help on this,
Thanks,

Are you trying to have multiple sql queries and have multiple sections displaying different data sets ? Or with one single query but display it in different ways in a single report ?
You can create one single query as Report Query in APEX and associate it with a BIP report layout. So you can achieve a Dashboard layout with the report query/layout.

Ideas for really complex OBIEE / BI Publisher report

Hi,
I've rolled out a relatively complicated BI Publisher report at a client who is mostly an OBIEE shop. We'd like to add functionality, but I'm unsure of the best way to do this. I thought I'd just jot down the requirements, and see if anyone has a really slick, sophisticated, easy and clean way to do this (because I haven't thought of any).
1. Report must be "pixel perfect", thus why I'm using BI publisher
2. Report combines data from multiple OBIEE queries together. There is no way to simplify this to a single query (right now report requires 6 or 7 queries to get data for all the different sections on it)
3. End users need to be able to select data very flexibly. i.e. Searching by project IDs, finding project descriptions that contain certain words, finding projects belong to all contracts managed by a certain person, etc. Because of this I think I'm limited to using OBIEE dashboards - BI publisher lists of values just aren't flexible enough
4. Currently, there are 8 different "flavors" of the report. This is currently implemented as 8 different BI Publisher templates on a single report / set of queries. For example, users can choose to run either a detail (includes individual transactions) or summary report (no individual transactions listed). They can pick either Life to Date or Year to Date formats, and they can pick "cost only" or "cost plus revenue". Right now, I have a single set of queries in BI publisher - but that's inefficient. If a user wishes to run a Year to Date summary cost only report - the queries are still also pulling back the Life to date numbers and revenue numbers - even though the template won't show them. This is both good and bad...good from a standpoint that if they switch templates the queries don't need to be rerun. But bad because if they only need one template, I'm running a lot of unnecessary queries. Not sure if I want to change this or not.
5. As a new requirement, users would like to be able to select multiple contracts, projects, and/or activities and run a "rollup" report that summarizes whatever was selected. Currently users can pick 1 and only 1 project at a time. But we'd like them to be able to select 5 projects (for instance) and run a "rollup" report. Or maybe pick a project, and then only run a report for 20 of the 30 activities underneath that project.
Right now I've implemented the report as a BI Publisher report that is passed a parameter for the (single) Project ID and a fiscal month, and then runs the required 6 or so queries directly against the OBIEE server. The only way I can think of meeting requirement #5 though would be to actually use answers results sets, filtered on the dashboard prompts. That would allow the ability to select multiple projects, multiple activities, etc and report the rollup amounts in a report.
Can anyone think of a "slicker" way to do this? Having a dashboard page with lots of "hidden" sections for individual answers queries (so end users don't see them) is kinda clunky.
p.s. Will BI Publisher 11g offer any other alternatives?
Thanks!
Scott

Hi Scott,
In your BIP report you'll need to create a separate "Data Set" for each Answer. Then all you need to do is click on "Data Model" and select "Concatenated SQL Data Source" as the Main Data Set. This will combine the results into a single xml result set.

BI Publisher report in OBIEE Dashboard

Hi,
I have a BI Publisher report that consists of:
-SQL Based Report
-Has 2 date parameters
This report is independent of any data source OBIEE, ie there is no repository for the data shown in the BI Publisher report.
I need to show this report in OBIEE dashboard with parameters. The report should get a parameter from a prompt / dynamic var.
I have understood according, there are two methods for achieving this:
1. Create a BI Publisher Report using BI Answers report as the data source wherein the BI Answers report would have one of the column’s filter clause as “is prompted”.
2. Create a BI Publisher Report using BI Answers/Database as data source. Create a parameter for the BI Publisher report and then match this parameter name while assigning the presentation variable for the dashboard prompt.
But I can not implement this, because my BI Publisher report is independent of any data source OBIEE.
There a way to solve this?
Thanks in advance!

When you create the parameter in Report, and embed that in BIPublisher report section, it will display the parameter in the embedded content itself.
see, if you can make use of this.

Is there a way to deny access to BI Publisher -Report job in OBIEE 11g?

Thank you all for the helpful information in the posts. I am trying to disable or not to display Report job under published reporting in OBIEE 11g. Could any one of you you please help me with the steps?
My issue:
I am pretty new to OBIEE and we are using OBIEE 11g when the user clicks on the new drop down, i am trying to disable or turnoff Report job under published reporting for a user group. I tried to find the relevant components for published reporting to deny access to report job under manage privileges but no luck i couldn't find any and i realized that i should be looking into Manage Bi publisher roles and responsibilities but i cannot remove the roles. Please help me with the steps and the options where i need to go and what i should do to not to display the report job. Your help is greatly appreciated, if i am not clear please let me know i will try to rephrase or explain it better
FYI
We are using LDAP for user creation and we have created a new group and created a test user belongs to that group and that user should not see the Report job. When i am seeing the users roles and responsibilities it is also showing me other two roles authenticated user role and BI consumer role for the test user, when i asked the admin guy dealing with LDAP he said he only associated the user with that only new group. Please advice
Thanks,
Ravi

In EM, go to Weblogic Domain, right click on bifoundation_domain and on the Security menu choose Application Policies.
Set Application Stripe to obi and click the blue arrow search button.
Highlight BIConsumer and click Edit.
Under Permissions locate Resource Name oracle.bi.publisher.scheduleReport. Highlight this and click Delete...
Click OK (top right corner).
Now log your user out of OBIEE and back in again, and the option should have disappeared from their New menu.

BI publisher report on OBIEE dashboard in a particular format

Hi All ,
We have a situation wherer we need to show a BI Publisher report on the OBIEE dashboard .
The Dashboard has a prompt on 'Year' and 'Quarter'.The issue we are facing is ,based on the prompt value the report column header should also change.
e.g :
Year=2003 , Quarter=3
It should give us the revenue for different Products for last four quarter :
Product----------------------2003 Q3---------2002 Q4--------2002 Q3--------2002 Q2---------20002 Q1
Airconditioner----------------100----------------200----------------300--------------400-----------------234
Refrigerator-------------------145----------------208----------------350--------------467-----------------264
Example 2 :
Year=2004 , Quarter=4
It should give us the revenue for different Products for last four quarter :
Product----------------------2004 Q4---------2004 Q3--------2004 Q3--------2004 Q1---------2003 Q4
Airconditioner----------------100----------------200----------------300--------------400-----------------234
Refrigerator-------------------145----------------208----------------350--------------467-----------------264
How can we acheive this column header.
Please advice.
Thanks!!

Hi,
based on the prompt value the report column header should also change. You want to change the value of the column heading dynamically based on prompt.You will get this by using the Presentation variable.So,you have to integrate both the bi publisher+rpd.

11g BI Publisher Report - Disable Schedule option

Hi,
Currently we have moved our BI Publisher catalog objects to the BI catalog and security is controlled through the web catalog for the BI publisher reports also.
As part of it, we have given 'Read' only access to the BI publisher report and the user do not see any 'Edit' option.
But the issue is that he is able to schedule the reports.
Is there a way to disable that 'schedule' option?
Thanks

from the catalog manager or from analytics url select the folder under which u have bipublisher reports and then click on permissions for the entire folder or for the report and then select custom it will show u list of options like create,delete,run,schedule,view,etc so take out(uncheck) that schedule option thats it
