How to get Portal User Context in Web Dynpro application

I have successfully integrate a web dynpro app into SAP Netweaver Portal.
Within my web dynpro app, how can I get portal user context information such as first name, last name, job title or some newly created ume attibutes.
Is there any programmatical approach to get portal user context in my web dynpro. I not sure whether I can use the following codes in web dynpro?
IUserContext userContext = request.getUser();
String firstName = userContext.getFirstName();
String lastName = userContext.getLastName();
If yes, can someone point me the name of the jar file I have to import.
Note : The SAP Netweaver installation that runs my web dynpro app is same with the SAP Portal.

Hi ,
you can use the below code to get User details and add com.sap.security_2.0.0 > lib > com.sap.security.api.jar
try
IWDClientUser clientUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
String firstName = clientUser.getFirstName();
String lastname = clientUser.getLastName();
catch (WDUMException e) {
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException("Error Retrieving User"+e.toString(),true);

Read Portal User ID in BW report to filter records

Hi,
I need to filter my records in BW report based on the
business partner who logs into Portal.
(BW report is getting called thur IView in Portal)
Is there any way i can fetch the Portal User id
during the execution of BW report? so then i can filter
records by writing code in user exit.
I tried using variable sy-uname, but it populates
the BW user id and not portal user id.
Please reply if anybody knows solution to this query.
Thnx in advance.

Abhijit ,
My understanding:
You need to filter the query by the Business Partner ID and not by User name and Business Partner number and BW User ID are both different.
If you want to filter by User name:
Why don't you try using SSO through EP and that way you would get the ID of the person logged in.
If you are using user mapping:
Or what you could do is maintain the mapping in an info object/table in BW and query against the same.
If you are using Business Partner:
Populate the business partner master which will have the user name attached and that way you would be able to get the Business partner ID.

Please help: User cannot see webi report data

Hi,
I've got a wired problem here in my webi report. Basically I am located in Singapore and produced a webi report for our user in UK. The report looks totally fine with all the data shown correctly. But when our report user logged into the dashboard from UK, she could only see partial data and some of the information are missing(blank cells in the report).
To verify the cause I've done the following test:
1. I remote control her computer and log into dashboard using my account, the result is I get same problem and I cannot see some of the data.
2. I let her remote control my pc and log into dashboard using her account, she no longer has this problem and can see complete data.
We use same version of IE, same JAVA version. And the report data is not time sensitive, so different time zone might not the possible cause.
This problem is killing me. Can anyone please help and let me know any possible solution? Thanks so much.

Hi Sinsin, what version of BusinessObjects are you using? Is it XI 3.1?
I don't know if it is the same problem or not, but I have seen that before when a user cannot view the data, change the font and/or background color and the data becomes visible. Reinstalling the client fixed that problem. If you couldn't figure out the root cause, you might want to consider this option.
If you are using the BusinessObjects tool, you should join [ASUG|www.asug.com]

Accessing Portal User profile info from report

Once the user logs into portal, I would like to access some of the user profile information (personal or organizational details). I need to find the stored value of the employee number, e_mail and department. This is needed to restrict the information that will be returned to the user in portal reports.
ie. Access the portal users department and only show them information fo that specific department. If I can access I can store the value in a session variable or cookie.

Just have a look at <portal_schema>.wwsec_person$
There is also an API <portal_schema>.wwctx_api.get_user to get the user currently logged in.
Thanx,
Chetan.

Supporting BW 3.5 and BI 7.0 Web Reports in NW04s Portal

Hi All,
I have been able to identify any documentation confirming that web reports from both BW 3.5 and BI 7.0 can be supported within the same portal.
Can someone please point me to documentation supporting this solution? Or, provide me with further understanding of this model. Points will be rewarded...
Thanks!
Dana

Hi KJ,
Yes, I have already reviewed that blog. However, that is only discussing the interoperability of the BW 3.5 and BI 7.0 frontend tools.
I'm interested in supporting/publishing both BW 3.5 and BI 7.0 Web Reports via the portal, not building the web reports.
Thanks!

Very large HEAPDUMP files are generated when executing BI Web reports NW7.0

Dear Gurus,
I´m facing a new problem.
When few users are working in Portal to execute BI Web reports and queries, the system stops and big files are generated in directory: /usr/sap/BWQ/DVEBMGS42/j2ee/cluster/server0
I´m using AIX 5.3. The files are these:
2354248 Sep 29 12:31 Snap0001.20080929.153102.766064.trc
1028628480 Sep 29 12:32 heapdump.20080929.153102.766064.phd
0 Sep 29 12:32 javacore.20080929.153102.766064.txt
I was searching for any solution in SAP help and notes. I´ve read a lot of notes:
SAP Note 1030279 - Reports with very large result sets-BI Java
SAP Note 1053495 - Settings to get a heapdump with IBM JVM on AIX
SAP Note 1008619 - java.lang.OutOfMemoryError in BEx Web Applications
SAP Note 1127156 - Safety belt: Result set iss too large
SAP Note 723909 - Java VM settings for J2EE
SAP Note 1150242 - Improving performance/memory in the BEX Analyzer
SAP Note 950602 - Performance problems when you start a query in Java Web
SAP Note 1021517 - NW 2004s BI Web memory optimization for large analysis item
SAP Note 1044330 - Java parameterization for BI systems
SAP Note 1025307 - Composite note for NW2004s performance: Reporting
But still not having found an answer to solve this problem.
In note 1030279 there is written:
?We will provide an optimization of the memory requirement in the next Support Package Stack. With this optimization, you can display a report as "stateless", so that the system can then immediately release the memory that is required to set up the result set.?
I´m using Support Stack 15 for ABAP and Java, but I don´t have more information about this problem or stateless function in another note. And I don´t know how can I use this STATELESS function in BI.
Anobody have any idea to solve this problem?
Thanks a lot,
Carlos

Hi,
Heap dumps are generated when there is an inmbalance in Java VM parameterization..
Also please remove the parameter "-XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError " in Config tool, so that heap dumps will not generated and fill up the disk space..
My advise is to send the heap dumps to SAP for recommendations.. Meanwhile check with SAP notes for Java VM recommendations..

Thanks a lot, any information woulde be appreciated.

I've had the same issue bugging me since installing Snow, er, lion, er, cat, er, cougar, er, Mountain Lion. Incredibly ANNOYING.
It's stupid stuff like this and reverse scrolling that really turn long-timer users off. I'm personally glad Forstall got fired for blunders such as these.
I'm serious peeved that turning off iCloud Documents & Data actually deletes documents and data locally. That's just incredibly stupid.
MANY thanks mende1 for the answer on how to fix it.

How to deactivate the context menu for data cells in web reports

Hello,
we would like to have the data cells (for example: values in euro) without context menu. I mean, right now, when users navigate in web reports and stop with a mouse over the data cell, text like "Context menu for 5.000 Highlighted" appears. Especially users don't want to see the exception cells with this information like
"Context menu for 6.000 critical 4".
Is it possible to deactivate this context info?
Thanks and Regards,
Nuran Adal
Message was edited by: Nuran Adal

Hello Nuran,
I guess you want to disable the Tooltip and not the ContextMenu. Anyway, use the table interface for it.
Have a look at paramter C_CELL_CONTENT
In Method DATA_CELL.
This one contains strings like:
30,0
Rebuild this String to:
30,0
Kind Regards,
Alican

Adaptive Processing Server vs WEBI reporting server

I'm planning for production configuration, I want to know when I perform following actions, which server is used? webi or Adaptiive Processing...
1. User refreshes a webi report (webi?)
2. Schedule a webi report (webi and Adaptive Processing? )
I will clone existing webi reporting servers, should I clone Adaptive processing servers also? AP has so many services running in it, I really don't need all of them. I just want to know which services are critical to report refreshing and scheduling. If a schedule a large report (5 million rows for instance); which server should I beef up? webi ? or AP? If I add one more AP server, will BO knows how to take advantage of it?

Is the Adaptive Processing server used for Scheduling Webi reports?
Senario:
I have Webi Processing services on production which are identical.
there are Adaptive Preocessing services which has different set of services.
1) AdaptiveProcessingServer1
Trace log service
audit service
visualization service
Web Intelligence Tracking Service
Web Intelligence Monitoring Service
2) AdaptiveProcessingServer2
Custom Data Access Service
Document Recovery Service
Excel Data Access Service
monitoring service
Rebean service
Trace log service
Web Intelligence monitoring service
audit service
3) AdaptiveProcessingServer3
Trace log service
audit service
DSL Bridge service
security token service
Web Intelligence Tracking Service
Web Intelligence Monitoring Service
My reports are failing sometimes with error: Exception raised:
com.businessobjects.sdk.core.CoreException
When i check for the SAP Note 1679045, however there solution refers only to the Webi Processing servers and not APS.
So not sure if it is applicable to APS as well.

Distributing WebI reports to BO inbox Destinations via 'Send To' Feature

I'm on BOE XI3.1 and I need to allow users to distribute WebI reports from their favorites to other user BO inboxes via the 'Send To' feature. All works fine but the sent reports doesn't get delivered to the selected destination. It ends up in the Temporary Storage with a 'failed' status
ie. recipient error. [[CrystalEnterprise.Managed] ([1]/[1])]: [bobj1]
I followed the instructions from this forum thread granting the user rights specified but without success
http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=138015&highlight=inbox+destination
Is there documented notes on how to grant the correct user/oject rights to enable this functionality to work? My users only have 'View on Demand' to public folders. A user with Administrator rights can send reports to inboxes without any problems.
Can anyone help?

Thanks Hensen for the lead.
I finally resolved the problem by granting access to the Everyone group of the ALL INBOXES top-level security as follow:
- grant View access for objects (this was the kicker)
- add rights to Content / Web Intelligence Report / Add Objects to the Folder

WebI Report causing WIS 30270 error on UNX universe

Hi All,
Need some expertise on a really weird error I am facing. I have a dashboard designed on a UNX universe, and a connecting URL that opens a WebI report that is also designed on the same universe. The dashboard is working fine for all the users but when the users open the WebI report, they face the WIS 30270 error which has a bunch of discussions but nothing related to the weirdness I have here.
As an administrator, I don't see the issue at all. Some general users have the issues but intermittently though. So I believe the servers are not the cause. Then I investigated access levels but users within the same user group have seen the error while others haven't encountered it at all.
The WebI reports that have been designed on BEx queries are all working fine with no issues. Please advise and help me figuring out the issue and resolving it.
Current version of BOE: 4.0 SP6 P3
BW: 7.3
Universe designed on SQL Server

I had a simular problem once, universe worked on Explorer, Dashboards but not on the WebI side.
The problem was, I used the "MOVE" option inside CMC, and moved the universe to a diferent folder. And for some reason something inside the universe still pointed to the old location, and only webi was not able to find it, I mean, it was able to find it, but not apply the correct permisions, and it would fail when I tried to refresh the report.
Can you create a new universe and test?
Or open the current one and save it with a differente name on another folder?
If that isn't it, are you using SSO on that universe?
That's it for now.. hope this helps.
Best
Leandro

Combining 2 BEx queries into 1 for 2 WebI reports for different 0CALYEAR

Hi all,
I have the following requirement in BEx Query designer:
I have two queries with 0CALYEAR infoobject in each.
One query shows me the data of last 5 years and the other does not have any such condition, it shows me full data.
I need to build a combined query based on these 2 queries.
This combined query shall be used for 2 WebI reports:
- 1 report showing the user, data for last 5 years
- 2nd report showing full data
Is it possible to handle this, without giving any date selection prompt for the user on the WebI report.
If so, please let me know how.
Thanks and Regards,
Srilakshmi

You have many options available. You can use structures and/or cells in your single query to present one set of data for "5 years" and one set of data for "Forever". You can simply create the query using selection columns to limit one column to 5 years and one data to 'full data'.
However... I always strongly advise my users to never, ever, ever create a query for 'everything'. You have no idea what the future will hold in terms of data volume. Creating an unlimited query will only produce performance issues and sadness. Users NEVER actually need 'all the data'. They just think they do. It's part of your job to keep them from creating requirements that they will regret later on.
