Performing searches and scrolling within a report using Plus and Viewer

Hi All:
In Discoverer Plus and Viewer, is there a way to do searches within a report?
Also, if I have a report that has multiple pages, as much as I can adjsut the row number, is there a quick way to get from the beginning to the end of the report and vice versa without using the Down/Up option?
thanks .... cm

Hi cm
In Plus, you can click the Search button, it has the icon of a Torchlight. This brings up a new dialog box that allows you to search through the report. Because Viewer is an HTML page it has no similar feature. If the whole report is on screen you can the browsers own search facility by pressing CTRL-R.
As for getting to the last page in Viewer, that functionality was added as an enhancement during the release of 10.1.2.2 cumulative patch 2 and has been continued into 10.1.2.3
Here are the notes from CP8:
Enabling Bug 5639863 - ENH: NEED OPTION TO NAVIGATE TO LAST PAGE IN VIEWER
Introduced UI for page navigation, using which a user can navigate to first/previous/next/last/specific page of the worksheet in Viewer. A new config parameter, named ‘pageNavigation’ has been added in configuration.xml as part of this enhancement.
It is a Boolean parameter, which when set to true, the page navigation toolbar will appear in the Viewer page, else not. It has been added owing to the fact that non-incremental query has to be run for showing the page serial number information correctly, thus resulting in relatively more show-up time of worksheet (based on how large the worksheet is) for the first time its rendered. It is recommended to set this parameter as FALSE, because setting it to true makes the query non-incremental, which is a performance trade-off.
And some additional commentary from CP2:
The default is FALSE. If you wish to use this UI, then you may notice a performance trade off for very large queries when the query initially runs compared to the default 10.1.2 functionality. The trade off is that it is much easier and quicker to navigate to specific pages of a large report.An example of the usage of 'pageNavigation' is given below
<viewer queryRefreshPeriod="3000" queryRequestTimeout="1000"
longRequestRefreshPeriod="6000" longRequestTimeout="10000"
userDefinedConnections="true" logLevel="error" laf="dc_blaf"
switchWorksheetBehavior="prompt" defaultLocale="en" disableBrowserCaching="false"
enableAppsSSOConnection="false"
pageNavigation="true">

Hi,
I had similar requirement wherein I was supposed to display different data using 2 different internal tables on a subscreen area.
The screen consists of two parts: 1) selection-screen with few input fields and two buttons 2) Subscreen area where the report need to be displayed. This report is displayed based on the button that the user is selecting. For this I have done the following things:
1. Capture the sy-ucomm when user is clicking on any of the two buttons in PAI. Then perform data fetch operation.
 MODULE USER_COMMAND_9003 INPUT.
 CASE OK_CODE.
 WHEN 'DETAIL'.
 GV_RPT = OK_CODE.
 PERFORM F_GET_DETAIL_DATA.
 WHEN 'REPORT'.
 GV_RPT = OK_CODE.
 PERFORM F_GET_REPT_DATA.
 ENDCASE.
 ENDMODULE. " USER_COMMAND_9003 INPUT
2. Declare two different ALV's with the fieldcat similar to 2 internal tables respectively. Use the above sy-ucomm PBO to call appropriate ALV.
 MODULE DISPLAY_ALV OUTPUT.
 IF GV_RPT EQ 'DETAIL'.
 PERFORM F_FIELDCAT_DETAIL.

Perform search and replace in a custom command?

Hello,
Does anyone know how to perform a search and replace for selected text in a custom command?
My specific dilemma is this: I have a large document containing [very poorly formatted] songs. For example:
Verse1 Verse1 Verse1 Verse1 Verse1
Verse1 Verse1 Verse1 Verse1 Verse1
Verse1 Verse1 Verse1 Verse1 Verse1
Chorus Chorus Chorus Chorus
Chorus Chorus Chorus Chorus
Chorus Chorus Chorus Chorus
Verse2 Verse2 Verse2 Verse2 Verse2
Verse2 Verse2 Verse2 Verse2 Verse2
Verse2 Verse2 Verse2 Verse2 Verse2
Verse3 Verse3 Verse3 Verse3 Verse3
Verse3 Verse3 Verse3 Verse3 Verse3
Verse3 Verse3 Verse3 Verse3 Verse3
I would like to be able to select all the text in a verse and run my custom command on it that would remove the "" and replace "" with " ".
Thanks,
Kelso

replaceAll method in String is available only from 1.4 onwards.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#replaceAll(java.lang.String, java.lang.String).
You could use a method to search and replace a String with another...
public String replace (String source, String search, String replace) {
 StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer();
 int start = 0;
 int index = 0;
 while ((index = source.indexOf(search, start)) >= 0) {
 result.append(source.substring(start, index));
 result.append(replace);
 start = index + search.length();
 result.append(source.substring(start));
 return result.toString();
}

Allow PUBLIC users to search and view basic OID data

Have tried to use the People Search portlet available under Portlet Repository: Administration Portlets: SSO/OID.
Portlet works fine so long as user is logged in. However, I need to be able to allow ANYBODY to search and return this basic user data.
Is there a way to do this, either by configuring something or by creating a custom report on a mapped (synonym) table/view???

Hi Sonia,
I don't think it's possible with the People Search Portlet - the application that controls the People Search Portlet is the Oracle Delegated Administrative Services & it requires a login via SSO to perform search / update Operations.
I would suggest that you develop a custom portlet using either PL/SQL or Java ( using simple JNDI ). You can later extend your own application to suit future business needs.

Searching and viewing files

The first few times I opened Bridge CS5 to search for and view files stored on a server it worked perfectly; specific pdf files were found from several hundred job folders and only the files in the folder that I named “client approved” were shown.
I believe I may have cleared the cache because I have not been able to find the same files that I once previously found; yet the files are present on the server and have not moved. I have since “built and exported cache” for some brand folders but now when I search for a specific file all versions of the file (client approved and not approved which are in separate folders within a specific job folder) are presented as thumb nails. I would like for only the “client approved” files to be shown as thumb nails. How can I make this happen and work as it did the first few times I worked with Bridge?

but now when I search for a specific file all versions of the file (client approved and not approved which are in separate folders within a specific job folder) are presented as thumb nails.
If you want to search for a specific word you should use the Find command under the Edit menu and select the proper main folder and choose client approved and equals. Be sure to have also include non indexed files and including subfolders selected. Bridge needs time to index all the files so the first time you use 'include non indexed files' it may take a while.
You could choose to create keywords or labels for approved files, it makes it easier to find and select.
Also be aware that Bridge is not designed to work over a network and/or using a server so this might also causing some problems.

How to find out names of reports using a particular view

hi guys,
i am newbie here, i jsut want to know how to find out which reports are using a particular view
many thanks in advance for your help

If you go to the Properties for the Folder in Discoverer Administrator, there is a Dependents tab that should list any workbooks using the folder. This only works for workbooks saved to the database, so won't help with any created using Discoverer Desktop. If you are gathering statistics and have the The Discoverer V5 EUL business area and its workbooks installed, it can tell you about Folders Used as well. It contains information about queries run whether the workbook is saved to the database or to the file system, but wouldn't contain inforamation about workbooks that had been created but not run.

Can I track/search and view/list of tasks

Hi everyone,
We have EP 7.3 and want to start using UWL for general day to day tasks for a certain group of users. There is no backend connectivity, just pure EP since we are just doing simple day to day tasks.
We are able to create and process tasks, no issues, but the problem is that we can track only tasks we create or are assigned to us.
So, how can someone do a search and list all tasks or all tasks for a given user, etc? The Manager of the group of people we are rolling this out to will like to have an overview of all his team's tasks, even the ones she did not create.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance,
Mike

Hi Mike
One possibility which I can image in such a way you can achieve the scenario which you're describing is to have the manager set as a possible substitute for all the employees who are managed by this manager. Once all the employees create a Substitution Rule in the UWL stating that the manager is a possible subsitute, the manager can use this feature to see all the items which are pending from action for his/her employees.
Please check more details on:
SAP Note 1577579: Facts and limitations about Substitution in the Universal Worklist
SAP Note 854549: Scope and behavior of substitution in UWL
Other than using the UWL Substitution feature, I cannot think about any other alternative.
Hope it helps
Kind regards,

In Pages document, how do I search for word and view its frequency and page numbers in a sidebar?

I have a long document and I want to be able to search for certain key words and phrases, and then see how many times they appear in the document and exactly where. How do I conduct this sort of search and viewing? In the past, in Pages and Word, I've been able to view my "finds" in a sidebar but I can't figure out how to activate that service anymore.
Thanks!

Here is a word frequency concordance Automator Service that works in both versions of Pages. It does not present a page number reference. It is by descending count, and alphabetically, within the repetitive counts as shown in the image here. In any document, you select the text to process, then Menu > Application Name > Services > Frequency. The Service will open TextEdit with the n-pages of scrollable results. It is 16 pt Helvetica Neue for legibility.
Here is the code:
on run {input, parameters}
 try
 set mySelection to input as text
 set formatted_result to concordance(mySelection)
 if formatted_result is not null then
 set textHeading to "Word Frequency List"
 tell application "TextEdit"
 activate
 set NewDoc to make new document with properties {name:"Concordance"}
 make new paragraph at beginning of text of NewDoc with data textHeading & return
 make new paragraph at end of text of NewDoc with data formatted_result
 tell text of NewDoc
 set font to "Helvetica Neue"
 set size to 16
 set color of paragraph 1 to {0, 0, 65535}
 end tell
 end tell
 else
 display dialog with title ¬
 "No input selected" with icon stop ¬
 giving up after 15
 end if
 on error errmsg number errnum
 display alert ¬
 "AppleScript Error" message errmsg & "[" & errnum & "]" as critical ¬
 giving up after 30
 end try
 return input
end run
on concordance(mySelection)
-- Use Ruby to count word frequency and alphabetically sort words
 set rb to ¬
 "selected = String.new\nfreqs = Hash.new(0)\nselected = ARGV.join(' ').gsub(/[,.]/, \"\")\n
 words = selected.split(/[^\\w-]+/)\nwords.each { |word| freqs[word] += 1 }\n
 freqs_sorted = freqs.sort do |a,b|\n\t
 a.last == b.last ? a.first <=> b.first : b.last <=> a.last\nend\n
 freqs_sorted.each { |k,v| printf \"[ %8s ] %s\", v, k }"
 do shell script "/usr/bin/ruby -e " & rb's quoted form & space & mySelection's quoted form
end concordance
Launch /Applications/Automator and choose New Document, then click the Service icon, and then select the Choose button.
On the left, you will have a list of Libraries from which to choose workflow items. Find Library > Utilities. In the adjacent column, locate the Run Applescript workflow. Click on it, then drag and drop it in the large workflow window to your right.
At the top, you can select Service receives text in any application. Leave Output replaces selected text unchecked.
In your Run AppleScript workflow window, you will see AppleScript boilerplate. Click on it and press command+A, then backspace to delete this content. Copy and paste the above code into this Run AppleScript workflow window. Press the Run button in Automator's upper right corner. If (and it should) a TextEdit window pops up, you are good, and you want to press File > Save. A dialog box will pop-up where you can name your Service. I called my Frequency, you may wish to call it something else. Once you have save it, you can exit Automator. Services are deposited in yourlogin directory/Library/Services.
If you have a Pages document open with text, either select it, or command+a to select the entire document. Now, you select your Service via Pages > Services > Frequency. This will now pop-up a new TextEdit document with the results. If you want to save this new document, you must use option+File to Save as...

Using stored procedures within Crystal Reports

Hello all,
Background Information:
I am trying to teach myself how to execute a stored procedure within Crystal Reports. This is an aspect of Crystal that my work group has not utilized before and we're trying to gather information on the subject. We use Oracle to create and execute functions and procedures all the time, but I've never tried this within Crystal.
I use the "Add Command" functionality within Crystal on most of my reports so that I can taylor the sql to the report. I find this easier to do versus using the ODBC connection to the tables and writing the code through the Crystal Reports wizard. I also frequently use functions within these sql statements that are inserted in the Add Command.
What I'm trying to achieve:
I have a report that needs to run as a "trial", and then later as a committed "run". This is for a monthly billing system. Essentially, the user will run the report as the "trial", preview the data, make any necessay corrections, and then later, run the actual billing run. Within my application, the bills are not actually marked as "billed" until they are actually "billed', if that makes sense. As a result, the "trial" report will need to mark the bills as "billed", generate the report, and then rollback the data (so that the bills are not "billed". Once the actual billing reports are ran, the same report will run, but with a "commit" at the end of the report so that the bills are now "billed".
I'm trying simple tests and failing (i.e. taking baby steps to learn what capabilities Crystal has):
I created as simple of a procedure as I can envision. This procedure inserts the word "test" in one of my fields for a provided account number. When I try to run this procedure via Crystal (via New Report ->History->My ODBC Database link->Stored Procedures), Crystal asks for the account number parameter, as it should. But I then receive the error message:
Database Connector Error: '42000:[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle]Syntax error or access violation'
The existing ODBC connection has work great for years and years to retrieve data from tables, but this is the first time I've tried to utilize procedures. Can anybody help? And can anybody explain what the Stored Procedures link is supposed to do? Am I going down the right path?
thanks,
Noel

Hello,
Make sure the Oracle client install path is in the PATH statement. And also make sure you are using an IN/OUT cursor. CR only reads the last SELECT statement. Search the Documents area on how to create a Stored Procedure.
Also, if you are using CR XI ( 11.0 ) then upgrade to CR XI R2 and apply all service packs ( SP 6 ). Go to this link: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc and download the trial version of CR XI R2 and use your XI keycode, then apply the patches which you can get to by clicking on the BusinessObjects tab above, then Downloads.
Direct link to the Trial version: http://www.sap.com/solutions/sapbusinessobjects/sme/freetrials/index.epx
It may fix your issue also.
Thanks again

Standard SAP Reporting Using Classes and Characterstics

Hi Experts,
I am currently interested in if there are any options to using classes and characteristics within standard reporting in SAP ECC. I know some reports have the selection critiera and allow for other fields to be added to reports. Does anyone know the reports that use classes and characteristics or have the ability to use them. Any help is appreciated.
Regards,

Consultant 01,
I am not sure of the specifics of your question. The reporting approach depends on the objective of the reports and the business requirements. In general, transaction MC03 can be use to report via classification characteristics. This key figure reporting option covers many classifying attributes.
If you want to report using batch classification and characteristic values, BMBC offers options for reporting on batches. In this case you may use the classification tab of BMBC to enter the batch class for "search with batch class" and/or "search with selection class". The latter allows you to view and/or narrow your search by characteristic values.
I hope that this helps.
Regards,
Wayne

Project Server Performance report using SSRS - Report display issue

Hi All,
We have developed and deployed a SSRS report in Project Server BI Center using performance dashboard, but half of the report only visible i.e. it is showing horizontal scroll bar at the bottom as below. I tried to change the web part width and height but
there is no difference. I also tried to change the performance point dashboard height and width but faced same issue.
Thanks in advance, Arun

As Per me their is not way to deal this issue. When you use web part and deploy SSRS RDL in project server horizontal bar display in the bottom if display area is not enough to display the data.
whatever height or width you choose in web part property it will come.
We have to live with this problem .

Why is the search and logins fields are black when using AOL

Why is the search and logins fields are black when using AOL??

M3nth,
Seems like we're all asking the same question
As tst says... try not to use the one at the bottom.. it's ... hummm..
It's behavior is unpredictable...
As for the multiple listing I'll have to read Molly's response on this (I asked the same question is the "Xtreme thread")
JLV
=== EDIT ===
Hi Molly,
I read your answer on the bottom search engine..
That's what I thought it did... but it didn't work for me.. I tried to use it to find some of my own posts within LV.. and it didn't find anything.
The search was : serial
I did this while reading a LV question of the subject.
I shall experiment with the search engine again and report my findings.

Difference in WS performance between Search and Retrieve operations?

All,
We are currently working on a new repository and planning to use MDM webservices on top of that repository for searching and retrieving the data.
Now I'm curious about the difference in performance between the Search and the Retrieve operations and also within the Retrieve operation, between the different identification methods (internal ID, auto ID, remote key, unique field and display field).
Because in the webservices guide is stated that the identification methods are listed in order of best performance, but what are these performance differences between these methods (e.g. a retrieve on internal ID is x times faster than a retrieve on remote key which on his turn is x times faster than a retrieve on display fields which on his turn is x times faster than a search operation on same display field).
Of course the performance depends on lot of other things as well, but I just want to get a feeling on the performance related to eachother (keeping all other variables that can influence the performance the same!)!
I hope that any of you has experiences with all possibilities and can share performance measurements between the different operations related to eachother. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Marcel Herber

Hi,
Did you implment Webservices in your site.
We are also having a similar scenarion where we have to serach a Records in MDM from SAP PI based on the certain criteria. I am concerned about the SAP MDM performance , since we are having heavy amount data being loaded every 30 minutes.
Please let me know the performace aspects of using Webservices.
Thanks

1st scenario
When in a runtime, it's keep appear a dialog box. This dialog box ask me to suppy Server, User ID, Password and Database. Once all information is supplied, my report display the data as expected
2nd scenario
I change my report using OLE DB (ADO) -> Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server -> checked on Integrated Security. I just choose Server, and Database. I assume me using Windows Authentication
When in a runtime, there's no dialog box as above. My report display the data as expected. really cool
Look's like, when report using SQL Server Authentication there's some problem. but, when report using Windows Authentication, it's fine.
I'm looking for comment. Please help me

Hello,
MS SQL Server 2008 requires you to install the MS Client Tools for 2008.
Once install then update all of your reports to use the SQL Native 10 as the OLE DB driver.
The try again, if it still fails search, lots of sample log on code in this forum.

Image not displaying in pdf report using XSL-FO and using Oracle 11g databa

Good Afternoon,
I have created over 15 reports using XSL-fo, with the following syntax to display an image on the pdf:
fo:block margin-left="0.24cm" margin-right="0.27cm" margin-top="0.0cm" ><fo:external-graphic content-width="scale-to-fit" content-height="scale-to-fit" width="1.73cm" height="1.57cm" >
<xsl:attribute name="src">'url("http://readiness:7780/i/marforcom_symbol_rpts.gif")'</xsl:attribute></fo:external-graphic>
</fo:block>
This syntax works fine when using Oracle 10g, now my database has been upgraded to 11g and my image no longer displays in the reports. I have already upload the image into the database as a workspace image.
I have tried to point the image @ the image by using url(#WORKSPACE_IMAGE#marforcom_symbol_rpts.gif)
or <img src ="#IMAGE_PREFIX#marforcom_symbol_rpts.gif")
and it still doesn't work.
I have searched this forum trying to come up with a solution that will fix my problem and am unable to.
Current config: Oracle 11g, using pl/sql gateway.
I need to know how to point the xsl-fo file to the database, where the image now resides.
Thanks,
Mary

Hi,
I think you need load images to database XDB virtual directory /i/ and then use #IMAGE_PREFIX# substitution.
This might help to access /i/

Or use this to load images
