OLAP Universe Sturcture in Production not same as Dev and QA

We have created a OLAP Univese from a SAP BEX Query .The BEX Qeury is identical in structure and Result in Dev(migrated to QA and Production)
The BOBJ Olap Universe creates a Main Class ( FROM SAP DIMENSION -Three of them ) and Sub Class ( Characterstic -13 of them ) in the Dev and QA, however the Production Universe creates a flat stucture of the Class from the Characteristics ( universe identify all the objects and new objects)
So my Webi reports in DEV and Qa do not work in Production, as it sa
We are not able to identifyt why this is happening, or what else we can check that is causing a class subclass sturcute in DEV and Qa and FLAT Class structure in Production.

Hi,
First check BEx query is same in the prod environment as dev and QA.
Thanks,
Amit

Report Layout is not same for excel and odf

I have a footer created in my report layout
When i export the report to pdf it displays at the end of the page but when I export it to an excel
the footer displays just below my report data and not at the end
Should there be a different layout for pdf's and excel's

The order of extracted records can no be assumed to be constant, any SQL optimizer can change behavior, even without any wide upgrade, but a single database or kernel patch as well as many operation of database administrator can change the order, as well as a change of user behavior, if they fill now another field in selection. So it is good practices to always sort (or use sorted type) internal table extracted or use a ORDER BY clause (provided there is an index in database, else do not)
Read online documentation of SELECT statement clause ORDER BY
The order of the rows in the result set refers to all columns that are not listed after ORDER BY, is undefined, and can be different in repeated executions of the same SELECT statement.
There are also some [MANY > 1000] OSS notes on the subject (look for your database, e.g. 1858427 - Incorrect Sorting of SQL-Select Statement, 1859655 - The result set of an SQL-Select Statement may not be sorted, 1858479 - Result set of select statement is not sorted, 1858569 - Incorrect access to result set of SELECT statement, etc.)
Also if you sort an internal table and require records with same key values to keep their respective order, use the STABLE clause.

5d Mark II Images not same in Develop and Library Module

Hello,
I am having trouble with the Raw fies that have been adjusted in the Develop Module loosing all of their luster and pop when switching back to Library and exporting. In other words, my adjustments are generally flattened out and colors muted when going from Develop to Library. I see that the Camera Calibration shows only ONE profile option: Matrix. However, the same single option for my 7D is also Matrix but the Raw files appear to hold my adjustments after being made in the Develop module.
I am using LR 2.7 and Camera Raw 5.7.
Please advise what needs to be done to get my images looking how I want them too and holding the adjustments.
thanks
todd bigelow

Sorry, but also noticed that this appears to occur only on the images with higher contrast, beautiful light that is vibrant and saturated. On other images that don't have the same intense, late afternoon colors, the adjustments seem to hold fine.
Meant to say "losing" in original post, not "loosing".......
thanks again for any recommendations

Iphoto pictures not same on ipad and mac after editing

If I edit a photo on my ipad (or iphone for that matter) and then transfer the photo to my iMac, the changes are not retained - the original photo is moved rather than the modified version. e.g. I take the photo of two people and edit the photo on my ipad to remove one of the people, when I move the photo to the iMac, both people are still there. Yet when I look at the photo on the ipad, only one is there. It is as if the whole photo is retained on the ipad, but you can see your edits. When you move it to the iMac, the changes are lost. Is there any way to move the photo and have it retain the edits from the iPad? thanks

Hi Epper,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you're editing pictures in iPhoto on your iOS devices and going back back to your Mac looking for the edited photo, but only see the originals. This may be happening because of the resolution of the photos being saved to your iPad or iPhone, see the article linked below.
iPhoto for iOS (iPad): Edit a photo
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11978
If you edit a photo in the iPhoto Camera Roll album, the edited photo automatically appears the Camera Roll on your iOS device, at the resolution of your device. If you want a full-resolution version of the edited photo sent to the Camera Roll, tap and tap Camera Roll. The full-resolution photo appears in the Camera Roll, and is transferred to your computer when you sync the Camera Roll with your computer.
Cheers!

OLAP Universe - Filter Expression

Hello,
Can anyone help me in how to write below filter expression in OLAP universe filter expression:
(PeriodType NOT IN (0,2) or EntryPeriod=(CASE when Company in ('PH','AU') THEN '200800'
when Company in ('AE','BR') THEN '201000'
when Company ='LV' THEN '201100'
END)) and (Journalcode NOT IN ('YTI','PROD'))
and SubledgerTypeCode = 2 AND LetteringDate IS NULL
and EntryDate <= @Prompt('Please Select as on Entry Date','d',,MONO,FREE)
Your help on this will highly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Pallavi

Use Aggregate() function in place of sum for the Rolling Calculation. Eg:
<EXPRESSION>Aggregate( {[0CALMONTH].CurrentMember:[0CALMONTH].CurrentMember.lead(@Prompt('Numb
er of Months','N',,mono,free))},@Select(Measures\Amount))</EXPRESSION>

Dev and QA pointing to Same SLD

Hi Experts,
We have a situation in our landscape. Just want to confirm if it is right approach or will be face any issue in future.
We have DEV and QA box of SAP PI in our landscape. (PRD under construction)
1. The DEV PI and QA PI are installed on the box and has the same host name. xyz.com
2. When I execute the SXMB_IFR from Dev PI it opens the url like xyz.com:54000.
3. And when I click the SLD it opens the SLD with url xyz.com:54000/sld
4. When I check the SMICM-->Services the http port is 54000
Until this it is fine, but when I login to QA box the following happens
0. QA PI is the system copy of DEV PI.
1. When I execute the SXMB_IFR from QA PI it opens the url like xyz.com:55500 (as already mentioned xyz.com host is same for dev and qa)
2. When I click the SLD link of QA box it opens the url xyz.com:54000
-- it opens the SLD of Dev PI were as i guess it should open the url like xyz.com:55500
3. http port for QA PI is 55500
I can see something is wrong here, but not able to understand it.
Though we are not facing any immediate issue what problems can we expect in future.
How can we rectify it?? any sap note available for this??
Thanks
Prasanna

Hi Prasanna,
As Rajasekhar said ,
Your Project has one SLD for Dev/QA and mounted that SLD in Dev and one SLD for Production, some of the client prefer this approach.
Even in our project also we followed the same.
Since SLD is mounted in Dev ;when you clicked on the SLD it opens the SLD with url xyz.com:54000/sld.
There is nothing wrong in it .
Cheers

Create dev and test instances of Apex on the same server and database

I have a dev and prod instances of Apex on different servers. I want a test instance on the same server as the dev instance.
I am using workspace export/import so all instance workspaces have the same workspace id. The application ID is the same on each instance, in the same workspace. This allows pages to be exported/imported in the differenct instances.
My question is (I am sure it is obvious) can I have more than one instances of Apex on the same database (dev and test) and have each instance have identical Workspace IDs, etc.
Sam

Hi Sam,
But you can have more than one database on the same server.
What we do is create a separate database for each APEX versions we are supporting (we still have a customer using APEX 2.0).
All the databases are accessed with the same APACHE config. All you have to do is change the DAD and have a separate dad for each database (i.e. each APEX versions).
ex : /pls/apex_dev /pls/apex_test
This way , I can run different APEX versions on the same server.

Date Prompt through not resolved in webi on OLAP Universe

Hi,
I am using BO XI 3.1 with latest fix pack.
I have created a OLAP universe based on SSAS 2005 Multicube for reporting using WebI
I have Date field in my SSAS cube and i created a universe based on that cube , but my Date field changed to Character in the Universe Layer.
My requirement is that i need to create a a prompt over that field in the webi report using a CALENDAR to enter the value instead of entering the value manually.
I changed the type of field for the date field from CHARACTER to DATE in the OLAP Universe level and exported it in order to see the calendar prompt ( as the calendar component is visible for the data type of DATE) .
This conversion don't seems to work for me due to the conversion from Char to Date even if i have the data for particular date i cannot see the records but if manually type the value for that same date without converting the Date format to type Date.
I also tried the MDX stuff and created :
<OPTIONAL><FILTER KEY="[PERIOD SD].[DB Full Date].[DB Full Date]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="format"@Prompt('Enter Date ','A',,,{1/1/2009})"></CONSTANT></CONDITION></FILTER></OPTIONAL>
but problem is still the same .
So can you suggest about unusual behavior of the Universe Layer.
Kindly suggest .
Regards,
Vibhav

Hi,
First I think you have to create a support ticket because normally the object in the universe must be generated with data data type nad it is not the case.
We are awere of some limitations with data types.
Secondly, if you want to have users entering date you have to specify date in the prompt data type like this:
<OPTIONAL><FILTER KEY="[PERIOD SD].[DB Full Date].[DB Full Date]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT CAPTION="@Prompt('Enter Date ','D',,mono,free)"></CONSTANT></CONDITION></FILTER></OPTIONAL>

hi can anyone help please ? i have had apple products now for apron 7 years BUT have never been able to make the bluetooth work , not even when 2 products i.e. : phone and iPod are in the same room. So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and iphone / ipad but can't get it to work, they say discoverable but just will not connect to one another. I also tried the connection code and tried without one ... NO JOY ... Is this common or am i a twit ?

You can't connect an iPhone or iPad to a Mac via Bluetooth, except for Internet tethering.
You're not doing anything wrong - it just isn't a feature of iOS devices.
What were you hoping a Bluetooth connection would allow you to do?

Best Practice to bring OLAP Universe and WebI Report to Production

What are the best ways to bring a WebI Report that is developed on a OLAP Universe (based on BEx Query) from Development to Production environment?
Edited by: B.Wegner on Nov 8, 2010 2:54 PM

1) Move your BEx query from SAP DEV to SAP PROD (SAP internal transport system)
2) Move your report (incl. universe) using the LCM or the Import Wizard from your BOBJ DEV to your BOBJ PROD system
3) Edit the universe connection in BOBJ PROD to point to your SAP PROD system.

http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
The above list show the current camera models supported by Adobe Camera Raw (plugin for PS CC) and Lightroom 5.3.
You will see that the Df Raw support was provided in the latest version of LR 5.3. Support for the D300s was introduced in LR 2.5. (the NEF files are different.)
Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw can only be updated after the camera manufacturer has produced the camera and made it publicly available. If you are using an earlier version of Lightroom then that is your problem.
Please post details of the version you are using at present.

MDX OLAP Universe does not allow for a Top 10 rank on measure.

Hello!
I am trying to Rank a measure by Top 10 in count on a MDX OLAP universe based on Web Intelligence. The rank works, however for all the zeros in the row values it gives the same rank and keeps on appending. I then tried to rank a measure with the MDX syntax in the SELECT statement of the measure itself. The syntax is as below:
<EXPRESSION>Rank([0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP].[LEVEL01].CurrentMember,
Order([0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP].[LEVEL01].CurrentMember.Level.Members
@Select(Exp Dem (Published)\Exp Dem (Published)),
@Prompt(u2018Top orBottomu2019,u2019Nu2019,{u2018DESCu2019,u2019ASCu2019},mono,constrained) ) )</EXPRESSION>
The XML is parsed because of the tags, however when using this measure in the query panel gives an error message for the prompt. Is there a way to rank a measure by Top 10 in the MDX statement above instead of the prompt for the Top/Bottom. I found the syntax in the OLAP Best practices guide.
Kindly revert for any possible solution. Any inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Vivek.
P.S.: I am specifically looking to Rank multiple measures by Top 10 count without displaying zeros / repetetive values.

Hi Ingo!
Thank you for responding! I have gone through the OLAP Universe best practices as suggested by the guide. However, the Ranking has an offset of repeating the ranks for same value metrics. So if I need a Top 10 and there are 3 zero values in the column, the ranking extends to Top 13. is there any way to hardcode this as a predefined filter in the Universe on the measure, which states that the rank stays limited to Top 10 irrespective of repeating values?
Kindly suggest if there is a work around for this!
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Vivek.

OLAP universes and Crystal Reports

Hi everybody,
as we know Crystal Reports can not use OLAP universes as data source. The details about that have been discussed several times in this forum, for example in the threads:
Logon failed with Universe data source
Logon failed when trying to connect to a SAP BW related universe
The possible data sources are perfectly explained in the Blog from Ingo Hilgefort.
/people/ingo.hilgefort/blog
But... why these connection type is not possible???
From my point of view these missing functionality comes with a lot of drawbacks. The universe has a lot of advantages, and first of all it is isolating the business users form technical complexities. But if the business users can not access to the OLAP universe they have to face to technical complexities.
Another point: Consider a perfect integrated SAP BW environment with Business Objects Enterprise and Crystal and Xcelsius. The administrator can now define a perfect universe structure, tailored on the particular business needs of the end users. This universe structure can be used for Web Intelligence and Xcelsius (QaaWS). But for the Crystal Reports I have to define another interface to the BW data sources, which can not be done by the Administrator.
So, some open questions:
- Why is the connect to OLAP universes not possible - does that make sense?
- Will the connectivity be available in future - is that part of the actual roadmap?
- What is the recommanded approach for a business case as shown above, meaning how can I isolate my business users from technical complexities by using SAP BW as data source for Crystal Report.
Thank you for any comments and advises,
Sebastian

Hello to everybody.
When I was starting to work on the BO products I had exactly the same question.
Why were the OLAP Universes not supported in Crystal Reports?
Well, I have a few facts in my mind, I explained the decision of SAP in this case with for myself.
1. Very simple and my first thought: monetary aspects. There excist the SAP Integration Kit. These drivers work pretty fine. So for what reason SAP should invest money in an other technique to access the SAP data?
2. It excist a server solution for small and medium-sized companies named Crystal Reports Server. I'm not sure but I don't think this package contains the Universe Designer. If acces on SAP data over the OLAP Universes would be possible, the Crystal Reports Server customers should also get the Designer tool and the Translation tool, too. Less profit margin.
3. Creating a Universe out of OLAP data destroys the moredimensionality. Universes are flat constructs. So maybe it makes no sense to use this meta layer.
4. A typical Crystal Report user isn't someone who had no technical understanding. For me these users should know and understand the data source very well. So an Universe would limit there the possibilities for building a report.
5. I think the SAP itself did not know where the journey should go with this toolset. A roudmap that changes severalt times in one year an many many rumours about these tools proof this.
So I think maybe we just have to wait a few months and the support for the OLAP Universes will come with a fix pack. Who knows...
Greetings,
Sebastian

Setting a Prompt value for KeyDate in WebI on SAP OLAP universe

I have a webi report which has as its dataprovider a query against an SAP olap universe against a BEx query which has the KeyDate parameter exposed.
Iu2019d like to get at this prompt from the SDK.
In infoview if I run the report it pulls up the keydate prompt (a special dialogue which seems to be implemented as part of the connection definition) - this prior to pulling up the full prompts dialogue and showing all universe based @prompt filters. In WebI I can see the prompt value entered using =UserResponse("dp.kd.value") . So it does seem to see the keydate as a prompt of some sorts.
I've got a little jsp that allows me to set prompts very nicely (and packeaged as a jar in the CMC that schedules ok as well) but when I put it against a report with a key date u201Cpromptu201D it just wonu2019t see it. When I call a getCount() as below it returns 0.
oDocumentInstance.getDataProviders().generateQueries();
Prompts oPrompts = oDocumentInstance.getPrompts();
out.print(oPrompts.getCount());
This is all in an attempt to get around the scheduler limitations of key date which would give me two queries, two universes and two reportsu2026 one report for scheduling (using a customer exit to set key date) and a second for user refresh (with a prompted key date) which would all be rather messey to say the least!
So any cunning ideas on how I can get hold of this key date thingymebob in the SDK?
(ps. "Fixed in V4" would be nice to hear as an aside to thisu2026 In playing with the ramp up Iu2019ve got the same issues however so Iu2019m not to hopefull )
Thanks!
Jeremy.
