Overwrite report with scheduled istance.

Hi gurus,
I'd need to schedule a webi report and overwrite the original report with the latest scheduled istance. Searching in forum, I found that this is not possible but it would it possible to set as default the opening of the last successfull istance. But this is still not enought to users requirements, as they sometimes need to save some changes to the report and by default that changes would be not available until next report schedulation (executed monthly).
I would ask if there is any workaround to accomplish this: to let user open the report always in same way (without to switch between "View" and "View latest istance") and get the last modified/executed between the istance and the report object.
Or there any way to create a task to automatically perform the "Save as" of an istance?
Thanks and regards.
Roberto.

See,
Sheduled instance is okay, After successful schedule, it has to get latest data available, correct??
To get those data, you have make it "Refresh on Open". Which means that get the latest scheduled instance data from datasource.
In this case you can leave Save As .
Thank You!!

Overwriting original report with schedule

Hi all,
I am using BOXI 3.1 and when I schedule a WEBi report it automaticly creates new instances. I would like the scheduler to overwrite the original report and not to create a new instances. Is this possible ?
Thanks, Timo

Hi
It is not Possible. The Schedule report always create a new Instance. If you want to Opnen the New Instance every time .

BO xi 3.1 u2013 schedule a template for multiple reports with different column

Hi,
I need to migrate the existing reports from SQL Server Reporting Services to BO, and the column order in the report is very important to the clients since clients have existing code to ingest these reports into their database. Now I want to schedule a single template with different parameters for all reports in BO, or create a single template with lot of parameters for all reports. My question is how I might use one template to create multiple reports with different column orders in the reports?
For example, client A has the following column order in their report: firstName, LastName, DateBirth, SSN. Client B has the following column order in their report: SSN, DateBirth, LastName, FirstName. Can I use one template to create these multiple reports?
Thanks!

Hi,
The only approach I can think of is to create a template report which uses variables
For each column you would need to variable
v_columnAName and v_columnAValue
v_columnAName would have a if statement in it
=if([client]="clientA" or [client]="clientC";NameOf([firstName]);if([client]="clientB";NameOf([SSN]);NameOf([lastName]));
v_columnA would have a if statement in it
=if([client]="clientA" or [client]="clientC";[firstName];if([client]="clientB";[SSN],[lastName]));
This would only work when you had a small set of clients.
This might be more managable if it was done in the universe

Scheduling WEBI reports with API

Is it possible to schedule a WEBI report with an external API?
Explanation: our customers can view their data on our internet site. We want to show a list of reports where they can subscribe. For example: report X with parameter Y each monday morning in Excel format to mailadress Z.
This subscribtion is stored in our Oracle database. The database sends an API to the BO enterprise server. BO schedules and sends the report to the customer.
Regards,
Emiel

Hi
What is the API ? Is it a Text file ? if so then you can schedule the reports based on an event in BO .

Ho can I schedule a WEBI report with dynamic parameters???

Hello again!!
Here i am with another detail about scheduling, the thing this time is that ia need to schedule a report with one parameter every week but with a different value for the parameter every week.
This is i need this week to run the report SALES BY STORE filtered by week with this value 2011 - 45 (yyyy - num ofweek) but the next week the value for the same parameter must be 2011 - 46
is it possible??? i mean is possible to schedule a report with different value for the parameter each time that it runs???
I know that i can schedule a report with different values for a parameter to send it to severals users whith different data but the values for the parameter are the same every time that it runs and i dont need that.
Any help or clue will be very appreciated

Hi Elio,
Do you have access to modify your universe?
Then you should try Dave Rathbun's idea. Here is the link:
http://www.dagira.com/2008/07/21/using-a-magic-date-value-in-prompts/
Note that you'll have to adapt it to what you need, in this case to the week number.
For example if you are using Sybase syntax you'd get 2011 - 46 with:
convert(varchar, year(getdate()))+' - '+convert(varchar, datepart(wk,getdate()))
So you'll new object in Universe would look like :
your_table.week = case when @prompt('Enter week','C',,mono,free) = 'This week' then convert(varchar, year(getdate()))+' - '+convert(varchar, datepart(wk,getdate())) else @prompt('Enter week','C',,mono,free) end
Adapt it to the syntax of the database you use. Then after creating this object in your universe you'll have to go back to your report and Edit the query and use this object in the filter area instead of a normal prompt.
When you have to schedule the report leave the prompt with the parameter 'This week'
Hope this helps
Regards
Erika

Schedule a report with the system date imbeded in the file name

Hello,
Could anyone tell me how I can schedule a crystal report with the system date imbedded in the file name (FileNameYYYYMMDD) through BOE? When I scheduled the report through BOE, I gave a file name and selected Attach Date Time, but the file name is coming out slightly differently and with the time imbedded as well (FileNameYYYY-MM-DD-HH-MN I think). Is there a way to change the default system date time format in BOE so that the date stamp comes out the way we want it?
Thanks!

%SI_STARTTIME% will add the time the report ran too.
Adding onlt the date will necessarily have to be done via the appropriate SDK.

Reports-Job-Scheduler: create job with startoption later: wrong date-format

Hi,
I test reports 11.1.1.2.0 (weblogic11 g) and try to start a report job with Reports-Job-Scheduler.
Startoption: later and date = 09:48 Jan 12, 2010
When I submit the job I get following Error:
REP-50006: Das Argument SCHEDULE ist in der Befehlszeile ungültig: 09:48 Jän 12, 2010
in english:
Rep-50006: argument Schedule is wrong in command line: 09:48 Jän 12, 2010
Why is Jän instead of Jan.
When I start the report in February then it works.
I defined also environment variables in basic configuration for the report server:
NLS_DATE_FORMAT DD.MM.YYYY
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE GERMAN
NLS_LANG GERMAN_GERMANY.WE8ISO8859P1
I would be very pleased to get support.
Many thanks
Alois

Scheduling a report with System Date as prompt

Hi Experts,
We have came across a requirement where users want to have a date prompt.
While scheduling the report, by default prompt is to be populated with system date and it (prompt) should also allow us to select a different date.
This report is used for regular run and also for scheduling.
We need a single report with single prompt which allows us to run for any random date when prompted and also to be scheduled for the latest date.
Please give us advice/ suggestion.
Thanks
Uttam

Hi Neil,
We have tried both the approaches given by you, but it is not working for my requirement.
Let me explain it with the below scenario.
scenario:
we have developed the report by using 2 data providers,
Dp1: It is a custom Query with date as follows ( it is a Transaction data) which brings the data from 1st day of month(user prompt) to user's prompt date.
TRANSACTION_DATE BETWEEN last_day(ADD_MoNTHS(@Prompt('As Of Date :','DT','ABC\plant\Transaction Date',Mono,Free,Persistent,,User:0)
Dp2: It is also Custom Query, but it has only data on month ends.
DIMV_plant_EOP.TRANS_END_OF_MONTH_DATE = last_day(ADD_MoNTHS(@Prompt('As Of Date :','DT','ABC\plant\EOP plant Attributes\EOP Date',Mono,Free,Persistent,,User:0),-1))
Report is having 3 prompts, namely
1) As of date (prompt)
2) Plant (prompt)
3) Country (Prompt)
For example: if my report is ran on 06-june-2014,
DP1: Brings the data from 1st of June to 6th of june.
DP2: Brings the Data from Inception to last month(say 30-may-2014) because it has only month end data.
Upto this it is fine.... but
My requirement is to schedule the report daily......
Example: User want to schedule a report today(10-July-2014), tomorrow(11-July-2014) and so on...
Scheduling should be done daily i.e, it has to fetch the data 10-Jul-2014, 11-july-2014,12-july-2014.... so on.
Automatically scheduling has to take the current date.
Thanks,..

Email reports with graphs as HTML (via schedule)

== W2K machine with Oracle Reports Server 6i R2 ==
How can I schedule/design a report if sent via email (in HTML format), so the graph that is part of the reports shows up? Currently, the gif is missing. I can use the "hyperlink" in the web setting to point to the file on the web server, but this means my "customers" need to click the missing object.
If I send the report as PDF, all is well but again, my customers need to "open" the file.
Is there a way to email reports with graphs as HTML?
In any other format where the receiver does not have to take any other action?
Thx
Josh

Report about scheduled reports with status failed

hi All,
I would like to schedule report with information which reports in SAP BO (which I could find in Instance Manager in CMC) did not refreshed (failed status). Do you know where this data are stored?
Thank you for your help.

Hi Konrad,
Query builder is an application which gets deployed when you deploy the BO applications like CMC/BILaunchPad.
The name of the application is AdminTools. You can check with your admin/deployment team if you have it deployed.
You would be exceuting the below url to access the application
http://<servername>:<port>/AdminTools
The name is case sensitive so follow the same case.
It would be best to run your queries in AdminTools application rather than running those directly on CMS tables though management studio. Running queries directly on CMS databse tables is not recommended.
Thanks,
Prithvi
