PDF Printing in BEx Web Applications

Hello all.
I am having a problem printing to PDF.  I have a web template with 6 different tables on it.  A dashboard so to speak.  When I try to print to PDF, it prints the tables into the PDF one on top of the other rather than maintiang the look and feel I have on the page.  My layout is set up simply as a HTML table where the different tables in the template are arranged so that you can see them all on the screen at the same time.  I want the print to PDF to print as it is laid out on the screen, but it simply prints the web items one on top of the other.
Is it not possible to maintian the integrity of the layout on the screen? 
I have tried to create a new template using the Web Template as Web item and it still does the same thing.  Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Brent

Hi Brent,
this is a frequently discussed topic of WAD. However there is a clear statement of SAP that requirements like yours are not supported using WAD. We had the same issue within several projects.
Plese note this thread, there the same topic is discussed (please note the last post of the thread which contains the official statement of SAP):
Re: Unable to Print the whole Container which has other Web items in WAD
Sometimes there is a workaround for such requirements but this quickly becomes quite time consuming and is depending on your exact layout.
Brgds,
Marcel

  • PDF printing from BEx Web Query

    Hi Experts
    When I try to print (Print Version) a BEx Web query I only get the message "Error while generating PDF". Do I need to set any setting to get this feature to work properly?
    Kind regards

    Hi:
    Yes - ADS is one of the standalone engines that should be installed in your technical foundations of the system.  It comes with the upgrade / installation kits. This is documented in the master guide - service.sap.com/instguides.

  • Print PDF file with the lay out created in the BEx web application designer

    Got the following questions (problems) when print a web report created in BEx Web Application Designer to a PDF file:
    1. The tile (which has a company logo and report name in it) was not printed, is it possible to print a title (with company logo) on each page of the PDF file?
    2. Want print the filters that have value specified on the PDF file, is it possible to do this?
    Any help is appreciated, thanks.

    Hi Simon,
    you can achieve this requirement i.e. using this way of implementation:
    1. Create a new template which contains the required fields (company logo etc) and set the visibility of the top container to "hidden". Add a empty data provider to this template and add the filter values (variable names) you want to display on the PDF. However be aware that the name for the (empty) data provider must match the name of the data provider within the original template you want to print.
    2. Open your original template and include the template you created in step 1 (Advanced: Web Templates). Choose the appropriate location (above/below the analysis item.
    3. Check the settings of your export command: do not set a special web item to be printed.
    If you export the template within web the second template should be printed correctly.

    Hi gurus,
    We have a requirement to print reports in web application designer. I need to add one print button.

    Hi Venkataramana,
    Go through below process...
    In the WAD, drag Context Menu web item and set the properties for 'Print Version' ON.
    Test if the Adobe Document Service (ADS) is running on the BI system. To do this, go to SE38 and execute program FP_PDF_TEST_00 to test the connection or, use FP_TEST_00 in 'Print Preview', you will be able to see the PDF print preview which means the service is on.
    When the report is executed, you can access the print service through the context menu to convert the report into PDF format and save/print from there.
    hope this helps...

    Hello,
    You can download these components from Service Market Place (service.sap.com/swdc) and:
    Download -> Support Packages and Patches -> Entry by Application Group -> "Support Packages and Patches" -> "SAP NetWeaver" -> "SAP NETWEAVER" -> "SAP NETWEAVER 2004S" -> "Entry by Component" -> "BI Java":
    BI BASE SERVICES 7.00
    BI WEB APPLICATIONS 7.00
    You have to download the SP that equals your APAP SP.
    Normally, these SCAs will be installed with installation of "BI Usage Type" of the J2EE engine.

  • Calling a webservice from within Bex Web Application Designer

    Hi
    I have a web-template built with BEx web application designer which also contains textboxes. This text should be stored by calling a webservice (standard BI-documents are not an option).
    Can anyone tell me how I could call a webservice from within the BEx web template to store the text contained in the textbox? The webservice-call should include some of the filter-varialbes of the web application.
    Is this only possible by the use of a JavaScript WebItem? If so - does anyone have an example of such a JavaScript.
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Kind regards.
    Christoph

    Thanks for your response. The BSP page would work out fine if I only needed to save the data.
    But the next time I call the webtemplate, the textarea should be filled by another webservice call with the stored text (so the text can be modified und saved again). This will not be possible by calling a BSP page.
    Do yoiu have any suggestions how to integrate the text (return value from the webservice call) into the textbox in the webtemplate?
    Kind regards.

  • Call a web template with default parameter in  BEx Web Application D

    In BEx Web Application Designer, As in traditional way. Assume that I have a query which have parameters. When I create a web template using this query and excute it. the first page is displayed and I should input the parameters at this page(for example: "Period/Fiscal"). after I input the data and press Enter key. the <b>reporting page</b> is displayed.
    And Now I hope I can run the template at another way: the template should <b>direct go to the reporting page</b> with the preset parameters (for example: "Period/Fiscal = 2005.006").
    thanks

    Hi,
    Alternatively you may use command URL, to enforce the variable value during calling up the web template. For example:
    http://yourAppServer:yourPort/SAP/BW/BEx?CMD=LDOC&template_id=yourTemplate&var_name_1=myParameterVariable&var_value_ext_1=4711
    In the implementation you may create a web template that redirect the URL to above reporting link, so the user will directly see your reporting page.
    For detail you may check in the WAD documentation.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi Daniel,
    We can check the FPN using remote role assignment.
    1. Open you EP (Consumer)
    2. Go to User Administration
    3. In Search Criteria, select Role in the first field, in second field select "system alias of your producer" and put * in last filed
    4. Click Go
    You should get all the roles of your producer on your consumer. This functionality is used for Remote Role assignment.
    This is simplest way to check whether FPN is working fine or not.

    Root Cause
    The initial exception that caused the request to fail was:
    Cannot get connection for 60 seconds. Possible reasons: 1) Connections are cached within SystemThread(can be any server service or any code invoked within SystemThread in the SAP J2EE Engine), 2) The pool size of adapter "SAPFactory" is not enough according to the current load of the system or 3) The specified time to wait for connection is not enough according to the pool size and current load of the system. In case 1) the solution is to check for cached connections using the Connector Service list-conns command, in case 2) to increase the size of the pool and in case 3) to increase the time to wait for connection property. In case of application thread, there is an automatic mechanism which detects unclosed connections and unfinished transactions.

  • Bex Web Application Designer issue: portal communication error

    hi experts,
    I am working with Bex Web Application Designer in BI7. we are using SP9. When i try to use the Web template its giving below error.
    The Requested operation could not be performed due to portal communication error.
    its message class is RSBOPLAP and message number is 018 and description is Java System error: An unknown error occured During portal communication.
    when i double click the below error details given.
    Diagnosis
    An error occurred in the BI components on the SAP J2EE Engine.
    System Response
    Procedure
    Contact your system administrator to have the error analyzed in detail.
    Procedure for System Administration
    Start the Visual Administrator, log on to the SAP J2EE Engine and choose "<J2EE_SID>" ->"Server" -> "Services" -> "Log Viewer".
    The file "defaultTrace.trc" includes detailed information about the error that occurred. In Windows, you can find this file in the Log Viewer under "Cluster <computer name>" -> "Server <server number>" -> "<drive>:\usr\sap\<SID>\JC<INSTANCE>\j2ee\cluster\server<NUMBER>\log". ". In Unix, the file is located under "/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<INSTANCE>/j2ee/cluster/server<NUMBER>/log".
    If the file does not include enough detail about the error, you can increase the log level to obtain more information. To do this, choose "<J2EE_SID>" -> "Server" -> "Services" -> "Log Configurator". On the "Locations" tab page, choose "com" -> "sap" -> "ip" -> "bi" -> "webapplications". Using the selection list on the right side of the screen, you can increase the log level, whereby "DEBUG" represents the log level with the most information. You can save your settings by choosing the "Save" icon. The change to the log level is active immediately. Once you have successfully analyzed the error, you should set the log level back to its default value using the appropriate pushbutton; continuous writing to the log file negatively affects the overall performance of the system.
    please give solutions to resolve the issue.

    Hello
    It is obvious that the connection between the ABAP and the Java is not working.
    There should be a JCo RFC from the portal side to the ABAP stack set up and an RFC from the ABAP stack to the portal.
    Check the entries of the table RSPOR_T_PORTAL
    The RFC specified here should be the one mentioned above (ABAP - Java)
    Check the name of the system should be SAP_BW
    Is the parameter icm/host_name_full set on the ABAP stack with the domain name ?
    Connect to the BI portal:
    http://FQDN:5NN00/irj/portal
    Navigate to system administration -> system configuration -> system landscape -> expand "portal content" -> systemlandscape -> SAP_BW
    Right click on SAP_BW - Open - Object
    Here you need to maintain these:
    ITS Description - BW ABAP Logical System Name - Tx SCC4 or BD54
    ITS Host Name  - FQDN_OF_BW_ABAP:port - You can use the value of icm/host_name_full parameter and retrieve port number from Tx SMICM - Services
    ITS Path - /sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui
    ITS Protocol  - Select http
    Logical System Name  - BW ABAP Logical System Name - Tx SCC4 or BD54
    Logon Method  -SAPLOGONTICKET
    Message server - BW ABAP FQDN
    SAP Client - BW ABAP Client Number
    SAP System ID (SID) - BW ABAP SID
    Server Port - 39NN
    Web AS Description - BW ABAP Logical System Name - Tx SCC4 or BD54
    Web AS Host Name - FQDN_OF_BW_ABAP:port - icm/host_name_full and retrieve port number from Tx SMICM - Services
    Web AS Path - /sap/bw/BEx
    If everything is set properly then do a test connection.
    Good Luck
