Pass variable value to different Web Templates??

Hi BI gurus,
The scenario is: we have 2 web templates, and at the top of template A, there is Menu Item for the users to switch to template B. Time Variable: Fiscal_Qtr (a custom exit variable which by default set the value as Current Quarter) is being used in both templates. And, there is drop down box of Fiscal_Qtr in the layouts for the users to change when they do the planning.
The requirement is to keep the last value of the Fiscal Quarter when the users switch to different templates.
The difficulty is how to read the fiscal quarter from the buffer and pass the value when launch another template, because it is a totally new session. The new session always set to the default value.
Please share your thoughts if you have any experience about similar case.
Thanks a lot!
Eunice

I dont think you an read from the buffer when you use javascript. The value is shown as request_1 in the url or something like that. This is with reference to WAD 3.x... you could customize the context menu and see if you can do an RRI instead...

BEx WAD - How to pass filter values to another Web template

Hi,
I have a scenario here...
Web Template 1:
- Filter options, Filter on Characteristics
- Button, this button calls Template 2 sending the parameters selected vía URL to filter the report.
Web Template 2:
- Tables and graphs
Values selected in the Filter of Template 1 and using javascript it should generates a URL, which filters the second template i.e. Web Template 2.
Can anyone please share javascript to achieve this...
-Anil

Hi Anil,
I tried this and could not get it to work. so if you find away through Java script then I would be very interested.
There is an option called TRANSFER_STATE which supposedly lets you pass variable names in this scenario but I could not get it to work.
In the end I created one template with all graphs etc. When you click the button to show the other template all tables and graphs in template 2 are shown and everything from web template 1 is hidden. This worked fine.
Cheers,
Nick.

Passing variable value from main template to sub templates in BIP

i am developing BI publisher report by calling different templates from the main template.
for example:
I have main template which calls three templates. my Main template code is like this
<?import:file:///C:/Temp/P1.rtf?> <?import:file:///C:/Temp/P2.rtf?>
<?import:file:///C:/Temp/P3.rtf?>
<?CALL: O1?>

I am getting parameter value in main template but not getting in other templates. Getting error BI generation failed
Please advise me.
Thanks,

Yes i have declared my variable at main template but if i do the same declaration at subtemplates, then report not generating. So that i am thinking better to capture that value in variable from the main template then to sub templates.
I dont know is it works or not? Please see below
<?import:file:///C:/Temp/P1.rtf?> <?import:file:///C:/Temp/P2.rtf?>
<?import:file:///C:/Temp/P3.rtf?>
<?param@begin: Test;'default_value';'string'?>

<?CALL: O1?>
<?CALL: O11?>
<?CALL: O111?>
<?CALL: O1111?>

Hi Niel,
are those variables A and B used for the same characteristics?
If not, maybe you could try to put variable A also to the 2nd query as dummy variable, that would not affect the query... Then in WAD you would see that just once and then you should be able see the variable A in the step 2 in user exit.....
But I guess, that has already struck you.....

Passing variable values to the navigation block

Hi WAD Experts,
I have a requirement regarding passing variable values to the navigation block. User requirement is first give the selections on the selection screen and then after executign output should display in browser. In the output page we have a navigation block. So when user gives selections those selections should also populate in the navigation block. Your help will be appreciated.
Prasad.

Hi,
if your variable is 'Changeable at Query Navigation' the chosen values will appear in the Navigationblock.
Variables which are 'Not Changeable at Query Navigation'
will not appear.
You can set this Property when you create a Variable.

Application inside an application and using URL parameter to pass variable values

hello
My requirement is to create a design studio dashboard that will have 2 applications and I should be able to pass variable values from application 1 to application 2. All this should happen in 1 dashboard application. I have tried using open document functionality
Application1.openNewWindow(URL link to application 2) . It doesn't meet my requirement as I am required to login to the other application in a new window.
Is it possible to add 2 applications in one dashboard.
thanks,
Bhat

Hi Bhat,
I don't know if it is possible to open it in the same Page. But you can try using the Opendoc Parameter which allows you to enable you to pass the credentials you have used in the current Dashboard.

Different Web Template selection based on query selection values entered

Dear Experts,
We have a very unique requirement in our BI7 system.
There is a web report which comprises of multiple queries and query views embedded in web templates. There are 2 selection parameters F1 and F2 that appear on executing the report.
Our requirement is to display a unique web template to the user based upon his selections. If user enters values for both the fields F1 and F2 then we want to display report output from query views in web template T1.
If user enters value for only field F1 and keeps F2 value blank, then we want to display report output from query views in web template T2.
The problem we are facing is to decide the appropriate place where this type of condition could be coded. We do not think user exit would do the job here.
Please help if you can.
Regards
XX

Hi Pravin,
Thanks for the reply.
Let me please clarify my problem further.
Web Template T1 --> Query Views V1, V2, V3.
(All query views V1, V2, V3 have variables on fields F1 and F2).
Web Template T2 --> Same Query Views V1, V2, V3.
(All query views V1, V2, V3 have variables on fields F1 and F2 but this time variables would be having different values than above).
If user enters values for both fields F1 and F2, then we want to display Template T1 with F1 variable = "value by user" and F2 variable = "value by user".
If user enters value for only field F1, then we want to display Template T2 with F1 variable = "value by user" and F2 variable = "all values for which transaction data exist".
Thus, we want to display a unique web template based on whether the value of F2 is entered by user or not.
Please let me know if you need any further clarification.
Thanks

Set multiple values in a web template via JavaScript

Hi,
I have a web template displaying a query containing a mandatory variable. Multiple values are allowed for the variable.
By manually inserting a link in the template I succeeded in setting a single value for the variable with JavaScript, but how is it possible to pass multiple values for that variable?
So far my link target looks like this:
"sap/bw/BEx?sap-language=EN&bsplanguage=EN&CMD=LDOC&
TEMPLATE_ID=ZJS_WT_1&VAR_NAME_1=ZJS_V_R&VAR_VALUE_EXT_1=1"
How do I have to modify the line?
Cheers,
Jost

Jost -
I haven't tried this yet...but I suspect it could work. In the below example, I have a variable on Company Code and am setting it equal to 3 different values. Give it a shot.
&CMD=PROCESS_VARIABLES&SUBCMD=VAR_SUBMIT
&VAR_ID_1=ZCCMPCOD0001
&VAR_ID_2=ZCCMPCOD0001
&VAR_ID_3=ZCCMPCOD0001
&VAR_OPERATOR_1=EQ
&VAR_VALUE_LOW_EXT_1=IP01
&VAR_VALUE_HIGH_EXT_1=
&VAR_SIGN_1=I
&VAR_OPERATOR_2=EQ
&VAR_VALUE_LOW_EXT_2=IP05
&VAR_VALUE_HIGH_EXT_2=
&VAR_SIGN_2=I
&VAR_OPERATOR_3=EQ
&VAR_VALUE_LOW_EXT_3=IP50
&VAR_VALUE_HIGH_EXT_3=
&VAR_SIGN_3=I

Selected variable value is different from the displayed value

Hi all,
I have an issue with variable selection in portal. I have a IO - customer which is compounded to source system. So I have soem customers with the same key with different sources. And I have a variable created on customer. For ex - i have 3 customers like below.
SA/1234567
BP/1234567
F5/1234567
1 - And when I search for a customer 1234567 - I find only one customer that is SA/1234567. And IO properties are set to read all the masterdata values and not infoprovider or posted values. - thats issue one - I would like to see all the three and let the user select what ever he wants.
2 - Now when I select SA/1234567 and run the report. It shows me data for F5/1234567 - which is correct data for that customer. But in the template I have a info field web item to display the selected variables on the screen. That info field shows the Customer as BP/1234567 - which is wrong and confusing. I checked the properties of the web item and everything seems ok. So in the variable screen I get a value, the result set if of another value and the variable value that shows in the Info tab is another customer. - Driving me nuts
3 - When I recreate the same scenario in 3.x query - everything works the way they should - this only happens in 7.0 query. What am I missing here??
Any pointer or insight is appreciated - sorry for the long post.
Voodi
Edited by: voodi on Jun 8, 2010 2:26 PM

Sorry - its not how its displaying the values rather what its displaying - it misses on 2 other values from the three - though the Bex setting in IO are set to read all the values from materdata table. And in the query I'm using IO properties. And display settings are ok

BIApplicationFrame - passing variable values

Hallo Expoerts,
I'm calling from WD in BIApplicationFrame a Web Template from BI. I would like to pass from WD the values for selection variables and avoid to show the selection screen of the web template. Is there any possibility to do it ?
Greetings
Wojciech

I managed to pass the selection variables to the query through BIApplicationFrame. This is how I did it.
1) Added the BIApplicationFrame UI element to the View of the Webdynpro application and named it ZBIQUERY with the following properties relevant to my system.
   - dataProviderStateName property is set to my query name which is 'ZPUR_M02_Q08'
   - dataProviderStateType is set to 'Query'.
   - server is set to 'housapdbw.noble.cc:8000'
   - templateId is set to 'ZPUR_M02_W02'
- variableScreen is Unchecked.
2) Added two attributes to the view under the attributes tab. They are
    M_APPL_FRAME            RefTo       CL_WD_BIAPPLICATION_FRAME
    M_METHOD_HANDLER RefTo       IF_WD_BI_APPLFRAME_METHOD_HNDL
3) Then add the following code in the method WDDOMODIFYVIEW.
data:
       lt_parameters type if_wd_bi_applframe_method_hndl=>tt_name_value,
       ls_parameters type if_wd_bi_applframe_method_hndl=>t_name_value.
define add_parameter.
    clear ls_parameters.
    ls_parameters-name = &1.
    ls_parameters-value = &2.
    append ls_parameters to lt_parameters.
end-of-definition.
if first_time = abap_true.
    wd_this->m_appl_frame ?= view->get_element( 'ZBIQUERY' ).
    wd_this->m_method_handler ?= wd_this->m_appl_frame->_method_handler.
endif.
Please note that the selection screen on my query has Select-options and its name is
XREF_NUM0001. I am passing a value of '11111' to it as shown below.
     refresh lt_parameters.
    add_parameter 'CMD' 'PROCESS_VARIABLES'.              " This is for Execute button
    add_parameter 'SUBCMD' 'VAR_SUBMIT'.                      " This one also for Execute Button
    add_parameter 'VAR_NAME_1' 'XREF_NUM0001'.         " Name of my select-option
    add_parameter 'VAR_OPERATOR_1' 'EQ'.
    add_parameter 'VAR_SIGN_1' 'I'.
    add_parameter 'VAR_VALUE_LOW_EXT_1' '11111'.     " Value for my select-option
wd_this->m_method_handler->execute_command( lt_parameters ).
endif.
The above code needs to be added before the view is called in th is method.
Hope this helps.

Passing variable values from WAD to BEx

Hi Experts,
I am working with a query which is included in a web template. At the top of this template, I have several variables included in drop down boxes for the user to navigate through the data.
With clicking at "open in Excel" a BEx-Query is started.
My question: How can I pass the variable values from those drop down boxes to my Query in BEx?
The current HTML code for starting the Excel BEx-Query looks like this:
http://sapserver:port/x/x/x/rsr_bex_launch/bexanalyzerportalwrapper.htm?QUERY=Queryname
Thanks in advance
Marco

If you export your report after selecting required drop down values, your report will be saved to Excel as it was filtered. You do not need any HTML code for this.
My question: How can I pass the variable values from those drop down boxes to my Query in BEx?
Why do you want to re-execute your query when you have already ouptut in the first screen shot?

How to get the entered value in a web template?

Hi experts,
We have a BEX web template that executes a query with an input variable. Itu2019s 0BPARTNER. It runs a report filtered by business partner
We want to execute a web service in the same web temple using the same entered value for business partner as a parameter.
The entered variable is not accessible with a document.getElementById('0BPARTNER')
The entered must be available in some way as it can be shown in a text element.
Does anyone know how to access it and move it to a local JavaScript variable?
Thanks

Please see this document :- http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/c01e9b01-abab-2d10-6687-96fc7bc39084

Acrobat pro Extended | Passing variable value with Querystring

Hi,
We are facing issue with opening a web link with passing a variable value as query string parameter. We have added a form button on the pdf page, on click of it we have opened a web page and we want to pass a variable value in the query string. We can not give the hard code value in querystring, as the value keeps on changing.
Please refer to the images below.
here the data will be my variable name, which contains some value. When i execute it, it passes data as a string, i want to pass its value in the query string parameter. How i can do this?
I had found one more way, is to call a function on the form button click, and in that pass the query string parameter as a variable, it works. But the problem in this case i am faceing is, in the app.launchURL command i have to provide a http path, means something like http://www.google.com, then only it works. I have that page on my local (no server), so i want to add the path as onlu page.html
//Reference code, this fun will be called on a button click
function LaunchPage()
app.launchURL("http://www.aptara.com/page.html?value="+data+""); //this works
app.launchURL("page.html?value="+data+""); //this dosent works
Please do let me know, how i should proceed. To repeat, i want to invoke a page, which is on my local system with a querystring, in which i sud pass a variable value.
Thanks,

re: George Johnson
Thank you for the response. This process that we are looking to do is necessary. We have 400+ OLD PDF forms that currently are printed by our print shop and then manually filled out and scanned into our system. The current process requires a clinician to log into our scanning system, identify a patient chart, and then identify the type of report they are scanning in. This process is time consuming with possibility of errors (wrong chart selected, wrong form, etc.). Plus, we have to stock up to 400 forms at each location.
We don’t have the funds to convert 400+ complex forms into electronic submissions where the form fields are discrete and file accordingly. So, what we have come up with to save costs of a new system and reduce potential errors is to add a barcode to each existing form.
Basically, each form will get a barcode and a javascript function in the onload event to process and parse passed in link parameters.
So when a clinician clicks on a form link in our EMR system the form will load passing in the patient acct. number and form name into the link parameters (all on our local intranet) so it will get embedded into the barcode on the form. They will then print the form fill out the data (or have the patient fill it out) and then drop it in the scanner. Our scanning system will automatically see the barcode and file the form under the correct patient and form folder based on the barcode info. (A scanned image of the form will save to the patient profile).
Ultimately we would like to convert all of these forms to electronic signature/submission but we do not have the funds or the time to do this.

Show Multiple Filter Values in a Web Template

Hello
I have a Web Template based on a query. On this Web Template I can set multiple single filter values for one characteristic.
Now I want to show these filtered values for this characteristic on the web item. This is possible for ONE filter value when you use the XML path (f.e. DATA_PROVIDER:DP1?/BICS_VIEW/SELECTION_STATE/SELECTION/CHARACTERISTICS/CHARACTERISTIC[@name='CHARNAME']/SELECTIONS/SELECTION[1]/MEMBER/@text)
Is there a possibility to show MULTIPLE filter values for one characteristics in a text or input field? I don't want to use a drop down box or the info field.
Kind Regards,
Andreas

HI,
the best ay to do is create a query with same variable parameters as of the main query and place filter Characters on rows.
Use this query in one analysis item and use it on top row of the template as Filters information.This will give better look and feel as well solve your requirement

Passing variable values to a webtemplate using url

Hi all,
Is it possible to pass a variable value with a sign other than equal (i.e. variable value should exclude the entered value) via url.
thanks,
Tomer.

Hi Yvanlathem,
Per my understanding that you want to use the expression above to conditional add the hyperlink to pass the value to the parameter of anpother rreport via the URL in the SharePoint integrated mode report server, right?
I have check the expression you have provided and the issue can be caused by the wrong way you have write the expression to pass the parameter, please check detais information below to make sure you have pass parameter in the URL correctly:
Please modify the expression to below structure :
=Iif( Parameters!PAR_LinksEnabled.Value="Enabled", "URL",Nothing)
I saw you have use expression like "&POS_ID=" & Parameters!CONNECTION_ID.Value & "" which is incorrect, we need to set a report parameter within a URL, use the following syntax:
parameter=value(not Value=Parameter)
If you are using the following syntax like "Parameter1=Parameter2", both parameters and from different report, if you have add the "Go to URL" action from report2 to Report1, please make sure Parameter1 is from the Report1
and Parameter2 is from Report2, change the order will not work
More detail information:
Pass a Report Parameter Within a URL
So, In your scenario, please make sure the value is from one report's field (POS_ID) and the the parameter(CONNECTION_ID) is from another report (e.g:"&CONNECTION_ID=" &Fields!POS_ID.Value &"")
