Pass a parameter from webi to Xcelsius

Hi all,
Anybody knows how to pass a parameter from a webi report to Xcelsius via URL?
I need to refresh the Xcelsius data with a parameter coming from the webi report. With Live Office works but only the first time: the data is not being refreshed in Xcelsius everytime I change the parameter in the webi report.
I'm thinking in someting like openDocument.jsp but how do I read this parameter in Xcelsius? Which connection should I use?
Thank you very much,
jon

Hi Peter,
the link provided refers to Xcelsius V4.5.
In Xcelsius 2008 you have to control Flash Vars in the Data Manager.
Go to the Data Manager, Add the Flash-Var Connection Type, Select CSV-FlashVar and define a name and a range.
But i am not sure if Xcelsius Engage can handle FlashVars, because i am only working with Enterprise.
Please take a look at your manual.
For sure there are other ways to import data during runtime. Take a Look at the Connections provided by Data Manager. (e.g. QaaWS, SSRS, LiveOffice, Webservices, ...)
Also take a look at the link below. It might be another nice option for "pseudo" data connectivity

Passing a parameter from a web application to the sub report.

Hi I am currently passing a parameter from the webpage into the main crystal report. I would like to pass this same parameter to the subreport but when I right click on the subreport from the main report I can find the parameter on the main report but there is nothing to link it to on the subreport (since this window just shows the dataset). I also tried adding a parameter to the subreport but it does not show up in the link window on the (select data in subreport to link to). I am using vs2005 and the crystal reports that comes with this.
Thanks.

Hi, Paul;
There are many samples on our site that show passing parameters to both main reports and subreports. Have a search at

Hi
you can use function module
data   ls_input_container TYPE swr_cont.
data   lt_input_container TYPE TABLE OF swr_cont.
CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW'
    EXPORTING
      task            = ptask
    IMPORTING
      return_code     = lv_return_code

    TABLES
      input_container = pinput_container
      message_lines   = lt_message_lines
      message_struct = lt_message_struct.
where you pass the data in imnternal table "pinput_container" as
ls_input_container-element = 'KUNNR'.
ls_input_container-value = ls_skna1-kunnr ."wd_this->lv_kunnr.
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .
ls_input_container-element = 'CLUSER'.
ls_input_container-value = lv_cluser.
APPEND ls_input_container TO lt_input_container .
ls_input_container-element = 'BUKRS'.
ls_input_container-value = lv_bukrs. " youe value as per requirement.

Passing a parameter from one class to another class in the same package

Hi.
I am trying to pass a parameter from one class to another class with in a package.And i am Getting the variable as null every time.In the code there is two classes.
i. BugWatcherAction.java
ii.BugWatcherRefreshAction.Java.
We have implemented caching in the front-end level.But according to the business logic we need to clear the cache and again have to access the database after some actions are happened.There are another class file called BugwatcherPortletContent.java.
So, we are dealing with three java files.The database interaction is taken care by the portletContent.java file.Below I am giving the code for the perticular function in the bugwatcherPortletContent.java:
==============================================================
public Object loadContent() throws Exception {
Hashtable htStore = new Hashtable();
JetspeedRunData rundata = this.getInputData();
String pId = this.getPorletId();
PortalLogger.logDebug(" in the portlet content: "+pId);
pId1=pId;//done by sraha
htStore.put("PortletId", pId);
htStore.put("BW_HOME_URL",CommonUtil.getMessage("BW.Home.Url"));
htStore.put("BW_BUGVIEW_URL",CommonUtil.getMessage("BW.BugView.Url"));
HttpServletRequest request = rundata.getRequest();
PortalLogger.logDebug(
"BugWatcherPortletContent:: build normal context");
HttpSession session = null;
int bugProfileId = 0;
Hashtable bugProfiles = null;
Hashtable bugData = null;
boolean fetchProfiles = false;
try {
session = request.getSession(true);
// Attempting to get the profiles from the session.
//If the profiles are not present in the session, then they would have to be
// obtained from the database.
bugProfiles = (Hashtable) session.getAttribute("Profiles");
//Getting the selected bug profile id.
String bugProfileIdObj = request.getParameter("bugProfile" + pId);
// Getting the logged in user
String userId = request.getRemoteUser();
if (bugProfiles == null) {
fetchProfiles = true;
if (bugProfileIdObj == null) {
// setting the bugprofile id as -1 indicates "all profiles" is selected
bugProfileIdObj =(String) session.getAttribute("bugProfileId" + pId);
if (bugProfileIdObj == null) {
bugProfileId = -1;
else {
bugProfileId = Integer.parseInt(bugProfileIdObj);
else {
bugProfileId = Integer.parseInt(bugProfileIdObj);
session.setAttribute(
("bugProfileId" + pId),
Integer.toString(bugProfileId));
//fetching the bug list
bugData =BugWatcherAPI.getbugList(userId, bugProfileId, fetchProfiles);
PortalLogger.logDebug("BugWatcherPortletContent:: got bug data");
if (bugData != null) {
Hashtable htProfiles = (Hashtable) bugData.get("Profiles");
} else {
htStore.put("NoProfiles", "Y");
} catch (CodedPortalException e) {
htStore.put("Error", CommonUtil.getErrMessage(e.getMessage()));
PortalLogger.logException
("BugWatcherPortletContent:: CodedPortalException!!",e);
} catch (Exception e) {
PortalLogger.logException(
"BugWatcherPortletContent::Generic Exception!!",e);
htStore.put(     "Error",CommonUtil.getErrMessage(ErrorConstantsI.GET_BUGLIST_FAILED));
if (fetchProfiles) {
bugProfiles = (Hashtable) bugData.get("Profiles");
session.setAttribute("Profiles", bugProfiles);
// putting the stuff in the context
htStore.put("Profiles", bugProfiles);
htStore.put("SelectedProfile", new Integer(bugProfileId));
htStore.put("bugs", (ArrayList) bugData.get("Bugs"));
return htStore;
=============================================================
And I am trying to call this function as it can capable of fetching the data from the database by "getbugProfiles".
In the new class bugWatcherRefreshAction.java I have coded a part of code which actually clears the caching.Below I am giving the required part of the code:
=============================================================
public void doPerform(RunData rundata, Context context,String str) throws Exception {
JetspeedRunData data = (JetspeedRunData) rundata;
HttpServletRequest request = null;
//PortletConfig pc = portlet.getPortletConfig();
//String userId = request.getRemoteUser();
/*String userId = ((JetspeedUser)rundata.getUser()).getUserName();//sraha on 1/4/05
String pId = request.getParameter("PortletId");
PortalLogger.logDebug("just after pId " +pId); */
//Calling the variable holding the value of portlet id from BugWatcherAction.java
//We are getting the portlet id here , through a variable from BugWatcherAction.java
/*BugWatcherPortletContent bgAct = new BugWatcherPortletContent();
String portletID = bgAct.pId1;
PortalLogger.logDebug("got the portlet ID in bugwatcherRefreshAction:---sraha"+portletID);*/
// updating the bug groups
Hashtable result = new Hashtable();
try {
request = data.getRequest();
String userId = ((JetspeedUser)data.getUser()).getUserName();//sraha on 1/4/05
//String pId = (String)request.getParameter("portletId");
//String pId = pc.getPorletId();
PortalLogger.logDebug("just after pId " +pId);
PortalLogger.logDebug("after getting the pId-----sraha");
result =BugWatcherAPI.getbugList(profileId, userId);
PortalLogger.logDebug("select the new bug groups:: select is done ");
context.put("SelectedbugGroups", profileId);
//start clearing the cache
ContentCacheContext cacheContext = getCacheContext(rundata);
PortalLogger.logDebug("listBugWatcher Caching - removing markup content - before removecontent");
// remove the markup content from cache.
PortletContentCache.removeContent(cacheContext);
PortalLogger.logDebug("listBugWatcher Caching-removing markup content - after removecontent");
//remove the backend content from cache
CacheablePortletData pdata =(CacheablePortletData) PortletCache.getCacheable(PortletCacheHelper.getUserHandle(((JetspeedUser)data.getUser()).getUserName()));
PortalLogger.logDebug("listBugWatcher Caching User: " +((JetspeedUser)data.getUser()).getUserName());
PortalLogger.logDebug("listBugWatcher Caching pId: " +pId);
if (pdata != null)
// User's data found in cache!
PortalLogger.logDebug("listBugWatcher Caching -inside pdata!=null");
pdata.removeObject(PortletCacheHelper.getUserPortletHandle(((JetspeedUser)data.getUser()).getUserName(),pId));
PortalLogger.logDebug("listBugWatcher Caching -inside pdata!=null- after removeObject");
PortalLogger.logDebug("listBugWatcher Caching -finish calling the remove content code");
//end clearing the cache
// after clearing the caching calling the data from the database taking a fn from the portletContent.java
PortalLogger.logDebug("after clearing cache---sraha");
BugWatcherPortletContent bugwatchportcont = new BugWatcherPortletContent();
Hashtable httable= new Hashtable();
httable=(Hashtable)bugwatchportcont.loadContent();
PortalLogger.logDebug("after making the type casting-----sraha");
Set storeKeySet = httable.keySet();
Iterator itr = storeKeySet.iterator();
while (itr.hasNext()) {
String paramName = (String) itr.next();
context.put(paramName, httable.get(paramName));
PortalLogger.logDebug("after calling the databs data from hashtable---sraha");
} catch (CodedPortalException e) {
PortalLogger.logException("bugwatcherRefreshAction:: Exception- ",e);
context.put("Error", CommonUtil.getErrMessage(e.getMessage()));
catch (Exception e) {
PortalLogger.logException("bugwatcherRefreshAction:: Exception- ",e);
context.put(     "Error",CommonUtil.getErrMessage(ErrorConstantsI.EXCEPTION_CODE));
try {
((JetspeedRunData) data).setCustomized(null);
if (((JetspeedRunData) data).getCustomized() == null)
ActionLoader.getInstance().exec(data,"controls.EndCustomize");
catch (Exception e)
PortalLogger.logException("bugwatcherRefreshAction", e);
===============================================================
In the bugwatcher Action there is another function called PostLoadContent.java
here though i have found the portlet Id but unable to fetch that in the bugWatcherRefreshAction.java . I am also giving the code of that function under the bugWatcherAction.Java
================================================
// Get the PortletData object from intermediate store.
CacheablePortletData pdata =(CacheablePortletData) PortletCache.getCacheable(PortletCacheHelper.getUserHandle(
//rundata.getRequest().getRemoteUser()));
((JetspeedUser)rundata.getUser()).getUserName()));
pId1 = (String)portlet.getID();
PortalLogger.logDebug("in the bugwatcher action:"+pId1);
try {
Hashtable htStore = null;
// if PortletData is available in store, get current portlet's data from it.
if (pdata != null) {
htStore =(Hashtable) pdata.getObject(     PortletCacheHelper.getUserPortletHandle(
((JetspeedUser)rundata.getUser()).getUserName(),portlet.getID()));
//Loop through the hashtable and put its elements in context
Set storeKeySet = htStore.keySet();
Iterator itr = storeKeySet.iterator();
while (itr.hasNext()) {
String paramName = (String) itr.next();
context.put(paramName, htStore.get(paramName));
bugwatcherRefreshAction bRefAc = new bugwatcherRefreshAction();
bRefAc.doPerform(pdata,context,pId1);
=============================================================
So this is the total scenario for the fetching the data , after clearing the cache and display that in the portal.I am unable to do that.Presently it is still fetching the data from the cache and it is not going to the database.Even the portlet Id is returning as null.
I am unable to implement that thing.
If you have any insight about this thing, that would be great .As it is very urgent a promt response will highly appreciated.Please send me any pointers or any issues for this I am unable to do that.
Please let me know as early as possible.
Thanks and regards,
Santanu Raha.

Have you run it in a debugger? That will show you exactly what is happening and why.

Passing a parameter from one form to another

Hi
I'm trying to pass a parameter from one form to another. I've read lots of postings about this, and I have succeeded in calling the second form using code behind one of the existing Portal buttons (insert). Here is the code:
DECLARE
pro_id NUMBER;
pro_link VARCHAR2(1200);
BEGIN
pro_id := p_session.get_value_as_number(
p_block_name => 'DEFAULT',
p_attribute_name => 'A_PRO_ID');
pro_link := portal30.wwv_user_utilities.get_url(
'CINTRA_APP.PRO_LINK_1',
'WKG_PRO_ID',pro_id,
'_WKG_PRO_ID_cond','=');
PORTAL30.wwa_app_module.set_target(pro_link,'CALL');
END;
Trouble is, the parameter does not get passed. This could be because:
the field I'm trying to populate is based on an LOV ?
the target form is not set up to receive parameters? (I read this somewhere, but how do you do it?)
Thanks
Manfred

Dear InoL
My Header Form coding as follows.

How to pass a parameter from one action1 in block1 to action2 in block2.

Dear Experts,
How to pass a parameter from one action1 in block1 to action2 in block2.
My Process Structure is as follows..
       Process
            Sequential Block
                 Action 1
                 Parallel Dynamic Block
                         Sequential Sub Block
                         Action 2.
while i am trying to execute the action1 the following error is shown below:
Cannot complete action: The activity could not be read.
Please suggest me how to do?
Regards,
Rajesh N

Hello Rajesh!
I think you are talk about the mapping parameters of your process.
This case in design time of your workflow, you have the vision of your blocks and actions, you have on action 1 the output parameter and you have the action 2 an input parameter.
So you have that make a group mapping on your process, map in this group the action1 outpu parameter with the action2 input parameter.

Pass a parameter from one ASP portlet to another ASP portlet

We are trying to pass a parameter from one ASP portlet to one or more other ASP portlets.
We are using PDK-URL Services and have created a provider.xml for each of the ASPs and the ASPs work as normal within the portlets created.
We are now trying to use PDK-URL Services to pass parameters to a portlet. As a first step we set up a portlet which displayed an ASP, this ASP (and the portlet) expected a parameter. If the parameter value is left blank the Portlet displays a default page (not the ASP page) for passing in the parameter i.e. a text box and a submit button. If the parameter is entered and submitted the ASP page returns and the results of the query are based on the parameter typed in.
As the next step what we are now trying to do is pass a parameter from one ASP portlet to another.
The Documentation says that there are two types of parameters Qualified where Parameters will be passed only to the initiating portlet i.e., portlet which contains them and Unqualified where all portlets will be affected by the parameter sent by any portlet.
Very little information was available on this, apart from the one liner explanation of each (above).
When we tested the above, using the PDK sample ("ParamCustomizationPortlet") portlets it doesn't appear to be doing anything in particular.
Any ideas on the best approach to passing parameters from one ASP portlet to another?
Thanks for your time.

We can visualize Qualified and Unqualified parameters only when there are multiple portlet instances in a single page. For example, add two instances of ASP portlet you have created, and submit from one portlet. You can see the other portlet also receiving this parameter, provided you are using unqualified parameters.
Thanks,
Amjad.

Passing a parameter to Web Dynpro from an external system

Hi All,
I want to pass a parameter to a Web Dynpro Application from an external browser.
I have developed a simple application with an input "ServiceOrder".
In the Portal I have created an Iview for the Web Dynpro application and have set an Application Parameter (ServiceOrder="000003000012"). Just for testing.
In web Dynpro Controller I have created an attribute in the Context and write tje code below in the wdDoInit.
String SO = WDProtcolAdapter.getProtoclAdapter().getRequestParameter("ServiceOrder");
wdContext.currentContextElement.setServiceOrder(SO);
My problem is that the String SO is empty.
Please help.

Ridouan

Hi R. Taibi,
try this.
IWDProtocolAdapter protocolAdapter = WDProtocolAdapter.getProtocolAdapter();
IWDRequest request = protocolAdapter.getRequestObject();
wdContext.currentContextElement().setServiceOrder(request.getParameter("ServiceOrder"));

Pass Multi-value Parameter from Web Page

SSRS 2012 Sp1
Developed reports working fine. They includes some cascading parameters behaviour: it means: select Parameter1, then the values are passed to the parameter2, then the selected value (parameter2) are passed to Parameter 3 and so on.
The reports in SSRS portal work fine.
Now, the clients want to run the reports from a custom web page (It is not reporting services).
in this case the user press a button and automatically the web page retrieve the data to be passed to the report.
Here the problem: although the value passed are correct, the report is not executed! Instead, the report opens waiting for user action (as if the paramters1, 2, 3 ... must be selected).
Please, do you know how to run a SSRS report from a <Custom> web page by passing the parameters?
Thanks for your help

in that case you should be passing default values for the parameters in the report and url used should be report viewer url rather than report manager url
Another way is using report viewer

Passing date parameter from forms to report

Hi,
I'm using forms and reports 6i.
I want to pass one date parameter from forms to reports.
Using
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'P_FROM_DATE',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FROM_DT);
giving me error REP-0091- Invalid value for parameter 'P_FROM_DATE'
This i think is because report expects date and here it is converted as varchar.
Please help

Hi Divya,
Even I use this kind of statement
Add_Parameter(pl_id,'P_FROM_DATE',TEXT_PARAMETER,:FROM_DT);and works fine for me.
This i think is because report expects date and here it is converted as varchar
Correct.
Open the report in the builder and under Data Model -> User Parameters, Go to the Property Inspector of P_FROM_DATE. Under Parameter, set Datatype as Character instead of Date.
Hope this should work. and tell me if it works(coz it wokred for me).
