Position of Parameter in BIP Report

Hi,
I have created some parameters.Those are automatically showed on the Report View page by default at some postions.What I need is to adjust the parameters on the screen at my convinient postions.
Can anybody help?
Thanks & Regards,
Ajay

This is exactly my case. There are NO options to customize BIP Report's control area (where filters are). There is NO way to change look-and-feel of Online Report Viewer!
In my case we've shifted to Dashboards (user set Report parameters via Dashboard Prompt), but here is another problem...
OBIEE - Publisher integration(multi-select value via Presentation Variavle)
It's really ununderstandable why OBI is so expensive and so bad!

  • Unrelated data in master detail sections of a custom BIP  report deployed in R12 EBS

    We have a custom Master Detail BIP report generated by calling XDO APIs from a custom Java concurrent program (common_report_attachment) . This Java concurrent program is called from another custom concurrent program (po_validation) that processes a batch of POs in a single concurrent request.
    PO_Validation Program (processes a batch of POs per request) -> Java Concurrent Program -> BI Publisher Report APIs
    BIP report generates data for master detail sections based on two sql queries (given below) that have 'where' clause based on a common external parameter "P_TRX_HDR_ID".
    NOTE: No explicit data link is used NOR an output column of parent query is used in the where clause of detail query as bind parameter.

    Issue: Sometimes when the parent concurrent request runs for a batch with multiple POs the report generated for the last PO has inconsistent data in the master and detail sections. To elaborate, the detail section is having correct data pertaining to the PO identified by the parameter "P_TRX_HDR_ID". However, the master section is having data pertaining to the previous PO processed from the same batch.
    This issue is not occurring consistently and is not reproducible at will. I
    'm suspecting this could be because of not having data link between the queries but confirm from someone who has experienced this issue.

    Srinath

    is there any way from the page, can we pass the some values, which can identify the page level data?
    if so pass the parameter to BIP report query.

  • Passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard to BIP report

    It is possibile passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard prompt to BI Publisher integrated report? (BIP report has a DB data source (not a answers))
    Thank you
    R.

    Hi Rajkm,
    In order to pass a multi-value parameter through the Reporting Services Web services, you need to define the same numbers of ParameterValue objects as the number of the values of the multi-value parameter being past into the report. The Name property
    of these ParameterValue objects must be specified same to the parameter name.
    I found a good FAQ article for this scenario:
    How do I pass a multi-value parameter into a report with Reporting Services Web service API?:

  • View BIP report with parameter in Dashboard, but the parameter  not appear

    OBIEE 10.3.4.1 on Redhat 5.2.
    I have a BIP report with 3 parameters which work fine in BIP. Now I embedded it in BI Dashboard, but not see the parameter menu when view in Dashboard. Is this the feature, or I missed something.
    Thanks.

    On the BI publisher Report Properties window, for Display Mode, select 'Link'. Then you should see the Report Object appear as a link, save and on the dashboard page when you click that link, the BI publisher report will show with the parameters..
    Thanks,

  • Siebel & "BIP Report Generation" Workflow and Bookmark Syntax

    IHAC that wants to schedule the generation of a BIP report to run every weeknight and include a list of activities for the next day. We've utilized an OOTB IO and can successfully render the report using Sample XML in MS Word. Additionally, since they are only on 8.1.1, they do not currently have access to the latest scheduling capabilities. Therefore, we're trying to implement a repeating component to call a workflow to generate the report using the 'BIP Report Generation' workflow and the associated objects (from support posting 823360.1).
    Now to the questions:
    One of the parameters for the workflow is a 'Bookmark'. This parameter does not appear to handle various 'Siebel' querying functions like 'Today()' as part of the criteria. Can someone confirm this statement?
    Currently, I can imagine one high-level possible workarounds. This would entail a revised WF and that includes a prior step to generate the 'Bookmark' by retrieving a string representation of tomorrow's date and concatenating it with the rest of the criteria.
    Next question:
    Does anyone have any other possible alternatives? Maybe a calculated field in the BC/IC for 'Today() + 1' - but this could have performance implications.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Suggestions/comments?
    Bump.

  • Not able to get correct BIP report output in case of more than 6000 records

    Hi,
    When we are trying to generate the BIP report in siebel 8.1.1, for the list of records whose count exceeds 6000 records, we are gettin a error as
    "Error <?> invoking method "<?>" for Business Service "<?>"(SBL-OMS-00203)
    W have done all the optimizations recommended by siebel like
    1)BIP Report Wait Time = 250
    2)Database Polling Interval=1
    3)Maximum Tasks parameter=100
    4)Maximum MT Servers parameter=2
    5)DSMaxFetchArraySize=-1
    6)Scalable mode in XDo cfg=True
    Than also we are getting the above error.
    Do any body have any solution or how we can optimize the report because the same report is working with less than 6000 records and giving details of all the records correctly but if records are increased beyond that than we are getting error as specified above.
    Thanks

  • In Drill through report pass hyperlink value as parameter to another report using ssrs 2008 R2

  • Parametrized BIP report integration on OBIEE 11g dashboard

    HI Experts,
    I have created BIP Report using SQL as source for my Dataset in Datamodel.Also, the report is parametrized with date value.
    SELECT * FORM EMP
    WHERE DEPT_NO=:DEPT_NO
    AND HIRE_DATE<=:FROMDATE
    AND HIRE_DATE>=:TODATE
    DEPTNO : List of value (Select DEPTNO  from DEPARTMENTS) and the Parameter is created as Menu type
    FROMDATE: List of vale(select day from Date_table) and the parameter is created as Date type
    TODATE: List of vale(select day from Date_table) and the parameter is created as Date type.
    The Report is working fine in BI Publisher portal.. Now I want to integrate this report onto the dashboard. For, that I have created 3 dashboard prompts (column prompts) and set the values to presentation variables DEPT_NO and FROMDATE and TODATE respectively...
    Now when I run my dashboard after choosing all the prompts the report is not getting generated. Instead, it is throwing below error.
    oracle.xdo.XDOException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException.
    I don't have an idea what is causing this issue and  i verified LOG Viewer form Enterprise manager.. But, no use.. I couldn't figure out the issue..
    Can any body help me how to resolve this issue..
    Regards
    Ramarao

    Hi Ramarao,
    There's many possible reasons why you're getting the error 'oracle.xdo.XDOException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException'. Because it's an XDO error, I'm stewing more towards your template that you're using.
    I would propose the following:
    print the whole error that you retrieved
    Change the SQL script from * to the specific column names and ensuring that maps correctly to your template
    Hope this gets the ball rolling and one step closer to resolving the issue
    Regards,

  • Locale Settings lost on mobile client 7.8.2.14 after creation of BIP report

    Hi All,
    we went live with BI Publisher reports (Siebel 7.8.2.14) at the beginning of June.
    Now some of our users are having trouble with their mobile web client.
    For example our colleagues in Poland have their Windows XP regional settings set to "Polish". It will make Siebel use date format for all date fields (e.g. activity start date) display as YYYY-MM-DD - this works just fine until user is creating a BIP report. After successfull report creation, all locale settings in the mobile client are lost. Instead of YYYY-MM-DD, the dates are displayed in DD.MM.YYYY and creation of new records produces and error. Also, currency and number formats are mixed up.
    I assume it's a bug - anyone hit this before?
    Edited by: Penky on Jun 17, 2011 11:38 AM

    Yes, we finally decided to do so!
    The main reason was that we had a lot of new report change requests and did not want to do the work twice (now in Actuate and then again in BIP). Also we plan our 8.x upgrade for second half of 2011 so this was already some kind of preparation, so we can completely focus on the upgrade afterwards and don't need to hassle around with the reports as well.
    issues we're still facing include "user's are not able to run reports after they change their position" or "List reports can only be run for few records, otherwise the search spec hit's an IO field's length limitation" or "report popup can not be suppressed although there's no useful information in it" (not to forget the one described in this thread) and some others.
    Well ... after 1 1/2 years since I downloaded the first integration QF the BIP journey still does not end - it's like it just started :)

  • Link from OBIEE Report to BIP Report

    I have a requirement in which I need to Create a Report in OBIEE and the values used in the prompts to execute the report in OBIEE needs to be passed through a link to BIP and Execute BIP report for selcted parameters.
    The Report is working fine and I am able to pass the parameters from OBIEE to BIP but to make BIP Report function correctly. I have to apply same set of Parameters in BIP and they are visible in the header of the BIP Report.
    Now the Requirement is to hide those parameters from BIP Report and BIP Report should run for the selected parameters from OBIEE dashboard.. On doing this the values passed from OBIEE are not getting filltered in BIP report and BIP Report is running for all records. Is there an alternate way to achieve this?

    if you are on 11.1.1.6 version you can do it i think .
    check the link below

    Enhancements to Parameter Display Options
    Enhancements to parameter display options include:
    Support for radio button and check box display of values
    Parameters that are defined as a menu in the data model can now be configured to display the menu options as a list of radio buttons or check boxes. Parameters configured to support one value support the option to display as radio buttons. Parameters configured to support multiple values support the option to display as check boxes.
    New options for placement of parameters in the report viewer
    Previously the report viewer always displayed the parameters in a horizontal region across the top of the viewer. In this release the display of the parameter region can also be configured in one of the following ways:
    In a vertical region along the right side of the viewer
    As a dialog
    As a separate full page
    New report viewer action button to show or hide parameters
    This release adds an action button to the report viewer to enable users to hide or show the parameter region. This enhancement complements the new parameter display options. When report parameters are configured to display as a dialog or in a separate full page, the parameter display region is dismissed when the viewer displays the report. Use the Parameters button to redisplay the parameter region to make new selections.
    Search added to menus
    All parameter menus having more than a specified number of options provide a Search option. For more information, see Section 3.3.1.1, "The Parameter Search Dialog."
    Option to remove the Apply button
    Reports can now be configured to remove the parameter Apply button. In these reports the action of selecting a new parameter value automatically reruns the report.

  • Need help on Date Parameters for BIP Report

    Hello,
    I need to add a date parameter in my BIP report. I have used a date parameter on a BIP report that has a for-each grouping, but my BIP report RTF template that was converted from Actuate do not have a for-each grouping and I was getting an error when I validate the RTF template. Can someone please help?
    Thank you

    can u send me template and xml . i will try at my side. email: [email protected]

  • Using OBI answers report as source in BIP report

    All,
    I am creating a BIP report using OBI answers request as source. I defined the data set, created RTF template from MS word and uploaded the same into BIP.
    I am using dashboard prompts for this reports. I have 2 issues with this.
    1. When I embed the BIP report in the dashboard along with BI answers report, the BIP report is not retrieving data when different metrics are selected in the prompts. for ex: grams and Kgs.
    The logic to apply the factoring on data is already implemented in OBI. When i change the dashboard prompt, it is changing the data in BI answers report and not in BIP report. I am wondering why this might be happening. If you have any thought please share.
    2. The BI report has some saved filters applied which uses some presentation variables in the filters. But those seem to be not effecting in BIP report. Please suggest any reasons and fix for these.
    If any one have idea, please suggest.
    Many thanks in advance.

    The BI answers request contains saved filters, in which some filters have presentation variable and a default value set for the same. we are using this as source for the BIP report data set.
    In this case the answers request is working correctly based on the prompt value selected where as the BIPub report is not working. The BIP report is working for only the default value. If we change the prompt for that parameter, it is showing no rows.
    How BIP takes care of such answers request based reports?

  • BIP report in plain text/fixed format.

    Hi,
    Is there an option for a BIP report to go out in plain text/fixed format. I dont see that option in the drop down where we select the format and view/send/schedule reports. Is this plain text/fixed format available in BIP at all? Also if I need to send/schedule a report with report name+date...can BIP do that? Please adivce. Thanks.

    There is no plain text format.
    Fixed format means you can select the format you need from the Limited Output Format.If You select only PDF for example the user able to see only the PDF output.
    While You schedule the Report under the Report parameter tab
    you will get the Template and the Format option .There u can select the Format you want to send.
    Thanks

  • BIP Report Parameters not visible from Dashboard in OBIEE 11.1.1.7.1

    Hello All,
    After upgrading to the OBIEE 11.1.1.7 we are facing this issue. In the earlier versions of 11g it was working fine.(11.1.1.6)
    When BIP reports are placed on dashboard as embedded content or as Link and opened from dashboard the BIP reports are missing the parameters section.where as the same report when opened directly from the catalog we are able to see the parameters.
    Is any one facing the same issue? Is there any option to show the parameters from dashboard or its natural behavior of 11.1.1.7 or a bug?
    Suggestions are highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    V

    V
    so you are not able to see the parameter before running the report as embeded content or as a link ? do you want to show a link for the report in your dashboard ?
    i havent faced this issue YET but i believe that 11.1.1.7 has some issues/bugs with the parameter
    i have found a bug which is " dunno if you are facing it as well or not " but wheen you choose all values and apply parameter it just error out, i have opened an SR and after too many OWC they have told me its a bug.
    BTW have you applied the latest patch ?
