Permissions to "Run Report" viewing previously scheduled instances - XIR2

Hey there,
I have a deski report that gets scheduled in infoview. (Business Objects XI R2)
When one of my users is logged into infoview and views the history of that scheduled report, he clicks on an instance of the report. Everything works fine, except for one little thing. The user would like to have the ability to (when viewing an instance of a report) be able to change some of the prompts and run that report once again by clicking the "run" button.
When I am logged in with an Administrator account the option to run the report is available, but when the user is logged in the "run" button is grayed out. I'm looking to find out how I can modify his permisions/access levels so that the button is no longer grayed out.
-Rob

Hi Roberto
I would like to suggest following points:
1) The "Run" tab appears during editing of the desktop intelligence report, that is in desktop intelligence
report designer. If there is not sufficient rights for user to edit report then edit data provider option greys
out. This all happens in Dekstop Intelligence Report designer.
2) To enable the user to run the report " Edit this object" right must be granted. When the right is
granted the data provider option will come and hence the "Run" tab.
3) To grant the right please follow this path:
Log in into CMC > Home > BusinessObjects Enterprise Applications > Desktop Intelligence > Rights >
Add/Remove, add that user > In Net Access, select Advanced and assign granted to "Edit this object"
right.
I would request you to specify where the "Run" tab is required. ( in Infoview or Deski Report designer )

Report Viewer error OBDC

Hi:
We use zen 7. Even though I can display inventory information regarding every workstation when I click on it, I can't run report viewer in Console1. When I try to generate any of the reports, I get the error, "Unable to login to database. Ensure that ODBC driver is installed properly." How do I check that? I remember doing the ODBC connection some time ago. Thank you.

Scheduling a Report from outside Scheduler but viewing the output in Plus

We are using Discoverer 10.1.2
I know that we can schedule a report within Discoverer Plus and the resulting out put can be seen in Discoverer under scheduled work books
I am also aware that we put Discoverer command line commands in a DOS script and then schedule that script to run using an Enterprise scheduler and automatically export that report Excel.
What I want is to schedule reports using our enterprise scheduler but view the resulting output in Discoverer under scheulded work books
I was thinking that when we schedule a report Discoverer creates a package, something like EUL5_BATCH_PACKAGE080314170249.RUN;.
Once that package is created, if I copy it and rename it and then schedule to run from our enterprise scheduler, would I be able to view the output from Discoverer ?
----- Added on 03/15/2008-------
I did try running the above package EUL5_BATCH_PACKAGE080314170249.RUN from SQL Plus as I had indicated above. The settings on the report schedule were -
- Run immediately
- Never repeate
- Delete the results after 9999 days ( maximum allowed )
Now the first time the report ran automatically using DBMS_JOBS since I had set the report to run immediately.
After that when I tried running EUL5_BATCH_PACKAGE080314170249.RUN from SQL Plus, the procedure completed but when I looked at the Discoverer front end, it indicated the run was in error with Unique constraint violation on EUL5_BQ_TABLES.EUL5_BQT_UK_1 index. However when I looked at the table it did not have any data in it.
I the ran the procedure again from SQL Plus and this time it completed and when I looked at the Discoverer Plus front end, the results were ready for me to view.
When I tried running the procedure again, it failed again with unique constraint violation and when the procedure was executed after that it again ran and i was able to view the results.
So, ever alternate run from SQL Plus was successful. I would continue to try out different combinations of schedule parameters to see if I can get it to work.
However, any one has already tried this before please let me know if what I am trying Is this possible ?
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you

Thanks for the suggestion Rod. However, if I use DBMS_JOB.CHANGE, the report will still run using DBMS_JOB. What I would prefer is to not use DBMS_JOB.
Running anything in DBMS_JOB means, the job is not visible in the enterprise scheduler that we use. Our enterprise scheduler is being monitored at a data center and if any jobs fail, appropriate on call individuals are contacted. Records are kept of failures and root cause is analyzed. So I want to take advantage of these procedures for scheduled reports as well.
I am still looking for some alternative method.

Multiple instances of Crystal Reports Viewer possible in WPF?

Hi, I've dragged and dropped three Crystal Reports Viewer controls on my WPF application. The goal is to be able to select up to 3 reports from a listbox and click run to generate the reports simultaneously. When I select just one report, it works fine. However when I select multiple reports it throws errors (object not found, etc). It seems there is a problem with multiple threads. Is it possible to have multiple instances of the Crystal Report Viewer display reports simultaneously? I am using version 13.0.9.1312 from the link below along with VS2013 C# WPF.
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
Thanks,
Syed

I was able to quickly cobble together a two viewer app that looks like this:
The code is like this:
Public Sub New()
        ' This call is required by the designer.
        InitializeComponent()
        ' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.
        Dim crReportDocument As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
        crReportDocument.Load("C:\tests\formulas.rpt")
        CrystalReportsViewer1.ViewerCore.ReportSource = crReportDocument
        Dim crReportDocument2 As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
        crReportDocument2.Load("C:\tests\report1.rpt")
        CrystalReportsViewer2.ViewerCore.ReportSource = crReportDocument2
    End Sub
For more details see the document WPF Project Using the Crystal Reports WPF Viewer in 8 Easy Steps
Now a couple of things to keep in mind;
1) The report engine is based on 3 Concurrent Processor License (CPL) model. Meaning you can process at most three reports at the same time. In my test, doing the above code for four reports worked, but the reports are very, very simple - and with saved data. What a "real" world reports will do, I am not sure. I do know that in a web app, the reports are queued up until one report is done and thus a CPL is freed up. You will also need to keep in mind any database connection limits, etc.
2) There is also a Print Job limit. This by default is set to 75. In a nutshell, almost anything done with a report is a Print Job. E.g.; paging, zooming, drilling, searching, etc., etc. In addition subreports are considered to be Print Jobs. Thus a report with one subreport in a detail section that returns a thousand rows of data and therefore running 1000 subreports will error out.

Sap report to view the scheduling

Can you please tell me the name of the report which can view the schedule and time of background jobs which we can run on se38.

Hallo,
I couldn't find a report such as the one you are looking for, but came accross a Function Mobule BP_JOB_SELECT_SM37B that, if you fill in the field JOBSELECT_DIALOG with the character Y, its excecution bring you to the familiar SM37 screen. You should check how to use it. If you want to produce a list, maybe you can find a way to launch it in background.
I played a bit with it, but unfortunately couldn't get a usefull list...
Good, luck!

Granting Run Report permissions on a specific report only

Guys,
Is there a way to grant access to users only on a specific report so that users can run that report.
For example, we want to give access to a user group on a report "All deployments for a specified package and program".
Environment: SCCM 2012 R2
Steps Performed:
1. Created a security role called "Run specific reports"
2. Selected permissions for this role are ONLY, "Run Report" under Packages node
2. Added user group TB\XYZ in this role
As a result:
- User groups TB\XYZ were added in the security of all the reports in category "Software Distribution - Package and Program..."
- Users run the report "All deployments for a specified package and program" but don't see any values in Package drop down list. If we supply report parameter (package ID) in the report URL, it still does not work and shows incorrect
parameter value.
- Users can see all other reports and folders in SSRS e.g. when they access
http://servername/reports - this is not what we want.
Requirements:
1. What we want is to grant user group access only on one report "All deployments for a specified package and program" and all the related reports so that users can drill down further reports.
2. User cannot read data using SCCM console
3. User should not see/run other reports (we want to provide users direct report URL passing package/program ID as a paramter)
-- S Ahmad

How is granting read permission only to those object that you want them you have access to giving them too much permissions?
The permission in CM12 R2 are far better (from a reporting stand point) than in CM12.
Exactly which report are you trying to grant accces too and why?
What is the business case for this?
I just want to grant permissions on "All deployments for a specified package and program" report in such a way that users can further drill down to following three reports:
-Status of a specified package and program deployment
-All system resources for a specified package and program deployment in a specified state
-Package and program deployment status messages for a specified client and deployment
So total of 4 reports. In SCCM 2007, it was easy to give access in the properties of the reports only (asp based reporting). However in CM12 (or R2), reporting is based on SSRS and what I've found is that we have to grant rights on objects those are part
of above reports e.g. packages, collections, workstations etc.
Giving "Run Report" rights to users does not grant access on view the information related to packages, collection or workstatons so report shows as blank. Another problem with "Run Report" permission for "Packages" in Security role is that it grants "Run
Report" access to all the reports in Software Distributions section.

Report viewer is not printing the exact font size format if the application is run through virtual machine or RDP.

Hi good day!,
I'm still having this problem with the font size format of my report, although I already installed this hotfix at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2768741/en-us, if I run the application using RDP or virtual machine. Anyway, I'm using VS2010 with sql server
2012 express through windows 7. Actually, I tried to search for a new and updated hotfix version but having no luck,:) since i'm not good at it (google search).:)
So, I need help on how to fix this problem.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Hardz

Hi JJorheim,
Thanks for the link that you had given. Actually, Previewing the report on an RDP or VM environment is not a problem at all because it yields smooth result based on the report design. The problem only exist if print button icon of the report viewer is pressed
which results to a magnified font size printout. I think it is a rendering problem a somewhat default behavior of a report viewer print method. So one of the remedy is to adjust the resolution of an RDP or VM to 1024x768
(4:3 ratio) as suggested by the others, which momentarily solve this problem but not necessarily the other way around.
Anyway, thanks again for the reply.

Crystal Report/STRUTS: Error (404) when clicking on Control Buttons (Print, Export, Next, Previous, etc...) on report viewer

Post Author: jwenny
CA Forum: Deployment
Need help badly!!!
We are using the crystal reports plugin for STRUTS.
We are able to display the report in the crystal report viewer. However, when we click any control buttons (print, export, etc...), then we get:
JSPG0036E: Failed to find resource /Report-viewer.jsp
We then moved Report-viewer.jsp to the WebContents folder (root directory) and got a different error when we clicked any control button:
Error: 400 page not found
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? For instance, is there a setting or parameter that needs to be set?
Greatly appreciate any help!

HI,
Whenever we print the viewer does an auto postback, I believe due to this some of the values are getting missed. Moreover we are referring to the viewer and reportdocument object, it seems. So can you try this simple code in an application to see if it helps:
ReportDocument rdoc = new ReportDocument();
rdoc.Load("C:\TASKECrystalReports\Intraday.rpt");
rdoc.SetDatabaseLogon("uid","pwd");
rdoc.SetParameterValues("parameter name","value");
CrystalReportViewer.ReportSource = rdoc;
Helps?
Thanks.

Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader?

Why won't Adobe reader no longer let me view previously download (from Safari) pdf's? I am running OSX 10.8.5 and have uninstalled and reinstalled latest version of Reader. I get this error message "Adobe Reader could not open 'OD Test Bed Proposals_0.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." I have tried changing the 'open with' options too. Thanks

Try this:
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins
Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files
Empty the trash
Relaunch Safari. You can now download undamaged PDFs.

Auto run report with default parameters in Viewer

Hi,
Can any one tell me if it's possible to automatically run reports in Disco Viewer with default parameter values?
For example, I have a worksheet with a parameter like 'Term like :Term Code' which has a default value of '%'.
When I open the sheet in Viewer I'm presented with the Confirmation screen with default parameter values displayed and then click OK to run report. Is there a way to skip the confirmation screen and just run the sheet with default values as soon as it's opened?
I tried using the 'Run Query Automatically' option in Query Governor preference but this results in Viewer opening the Edit Parameters screen instead of the confirmation screen.
What I'd ideally like to do is bypass both the Confirmation and Edit Parameters screen to automatically run the worksheet with default parameters as soon as it's selected.
Any thoughts appreciated,
Ien Hien

Hi,
Option 1
If the user is clicking on a URL for the report you could code the parameters directly into the URL thus, they are passed on startup. Section 13.5.2 Example 2 of the below URL provides an example:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B13918_03/urlstart.htm#i1014363
Option 2 (Not Exactly what your looking for)
This would still require a user to click something but, if your passing a wildcard it should probably be considered,
If the parameter might be a wild card your better off making it an Optional Parameter which is now possible in Discoverer Plus 10.1.2. Thus, instead of passing an expensive % sign the condition will simply be ignored.
Hopefully this helps....

Old reports / views should be deactivated (not to run)

Hi Experts,
We have set of reports in production which are not optimized for performance. So now we have created new set of reports and transported to production. Now we want to de-activate all old reports and views, so that business will run only new reports, by mistake also he can't run old reports.
Is there a way to update only DB tables or is there any other manual method available to de-activate or not to run old reports / views?
Thanks in advance.
Arun Thangaraj

Hi Arun,
If you are sure that your user is not required the old reports in future, right thiing is to delete the reports.
Actually de activate concepts comes when any thing is used by your database(tables), if you are not using the report then there is no question of DB tables usage.

Running a crystal reports viewer from forms

Greetings,
I am using Oracle Forms 10g!!
I have a form that is used to invoke a crystal report viewer using the HOST command. The viewer has the ability to pass in a id and password. When I try to run it I get:
Logon failed.

When I click the button I receive:
