Precalculated Web Templates - Variants and Control Queries!!

Hi,
We are having some problems with precalculating a web template.
Within the template there are multiple queries that need to be precalculated. All of these queries are using a variable and control query to select a currency. However, whenever we schedule it to precalculate it always cancels!! When we take the variant out we have no problems and it runs.
Do you know if there are any problems running multipul queries from the same variant, or what the problem may be?
We are running on version 3b.
Any help would be gratfully received.

Hi Ashish,
Yes all of the variants have been maintained in the Reporting Agent. Even if we just try it with one variant it still doesnt want to precalculate!!!
Any more help would be great.
Thanks
Abi

Precalculated web templates,Its scheduling time&Routines built on Queries??

Hi ALL,
<b>In the same way, I want the way to find out the list of Precalculated web templates, its scheduling time & Routines built on the Queries using RSRT T-code.
Can anyone let me know to find out the Query properties using RSRT if we dont have access to BEX Analyser etc.,</b>
(As we have in RSRT for seeing List of Objects in Free Characteristics, Filters, Rows, Columns and also the exceptions, variables, conditions built etc.,)
Will be waiting for Answers on this.
Points will be rewarded for sure.

If it is 3.X Web Templates you can use function module RZX2_OBJECT_DELETE
populating I_T_PARAMS table with
first OBJID field as the technical name of your template and
second OBJTYPE field as constant 'HT'.
you can add as many rows as you want.
If it is 7.X Web templates you can use function module RSOBJS_DELETE
populating I_S_PARAMS with
first field OBJ_TYPE as 'BTMP',
second filed OBJ_KEY as the technical name of your template
this function module allows only one template to be deleted at a time
If you are comfortable with ABAP, and if you have a list of all your 100 web template technical names,
you can just write a program with a internal table containing the names of these templates and calling the above function modules in a loop.y passing one value at a time.
Hope it helps!

Basically when you have a Precalculated Template, the system first run a report (which has been scheduled) and read the data from there when you run your template. This can imrpove the performance respect to online read data.

Precalculated web template w/control query

I create a precalculated web template with settings:
1. Data
2. HTML web pages
3. Control query
I scheduled the package. How do I access the views from control query in Web Template URL?

Hi Raynald,
1. When you marked "HTML web pages" then "Data" are calculated automatically.

Precalculated web template - how to use it

Hello everybody,
i need your advice on how to correctly use the feature of precalculated webtemplate.
I have following situation:
we have created a pretty compliacted web template, which must be optimized on performance.
The rule should be: current month data should be available as precalculated webtemplate. people will access the web template with borwser (it will be not send via emial)
Below my questions:
1) How to call the precalclauted web template (if variable is part of report)
I was playing around with this prcealculation fueature and got to the result that the only way to call a precalculated web template if we use variables, is to include the variable and variable value into the URL string
Is this true?
Any other ideas how to call a precalculated web template
2) How to define flexibly the precalculation variant
Right now I have define up to 22 variants for each month (for eachworking day of the month).
For new month i have to define new variants.
My idea is to have it flexible: define one variant for each day of the month. As the month changes, the variants should consist of new dates (for the new month). This should happen automatically. Maybe with ABAP program.
Any idea how to do it?
Maybe anyone has batter idea how to mange the precalculation for given dates
TIA

hi Kavi,
precalculated webtemplate can be said 'produce' query result first in the background, the 'calcuated' result stored in HTML format (statis), so will speed up report access without execute olap query/accessing database.
the 'disadvantage' is no olap navigation.
use via 'reporting agent'.
there is specific pdf doc for precalculate webtempate in sdn forum, point you later.

PreCalculated Web Templates

Hallo,
I recently had to setup some precalculated web templates to improve query response time for users. But I have some doubts which could not be addressed even after I referred to course materials which I used when attending BW course a year back.
I'm not sure if you guys can answer these:
1.How are web templates created by Reporting Agent assigned to users? Where is it stored? Is data displayed in HTML or in Excel but only if exported?
2.Is it a must that all precalc webtemplates be run in backgnd?
3.Does a Query Value in parameter Data_mode mean the various modes like 'STORED', 'HYBRID' etc? Are these also termed as Reserve variables?
4.What is meant by the 'javascript functions' used in precalc web templates?
5.What is a New Data Mode Parameter? Can it be specified in the URL like 'STORED'?
6.When Stored mode, where is the precalc data stored? Where is a Rep Agent storage? What format?
7.Are all data_mode except new mode accessing precalc data in html option?
8.What does a precalc batch run mean? A Scheduled run of Reporting Agent?
9.How is control query defined?
10. Is 'stored' mode precalc data stored in HTML option? Does this mean HTML format? Or every precalc is stored in html option? Can I say html option = html format?
sincerely,
Adette

Let me try to answer some (answers next to questions).
cheers,
Ajay
> 1.How are web templates created by Reporting Agent

--: These are calculated by background jobs that you schedule as packages. These are stored in Reporting Agent Storage. You can think of it something akin to SPOOL. It is not a DB table or structured data store that you can access independently. Data is available in HTML.
>
> 2.Is it a must that all precalc webtemplates be run
> in backgnd?
--: If you use data_mode = NEW, it will run online (ie read data in realtime). The purpose of precalc is to run it in background, that is why it is 'PreCalc'.
> 3.Does a Query Value in parameter Data_mode mean the

--: Yes to the first part. Don't know if it is termed as reserve variable.
>
> 4.What is meant by the 'javascript functions' used in

> 5.What is a New Data Mode Parameter? Can it be
> specified in the URL like 'STORED'?
--: READ can be specified in the URL. Its effect is to disregard any precalculated data and read the data afresh from DB. In this case, OLAP doesn't check the reporting agent storage area, it goes directly to DB to fetch the data from there.
>
> 6.When Stored mode, where is the precalc data stored?
> Where is a Rep Agent storage? What format?
--> Reporting agent storage can be thought of something similar to SPOOL. It is 'unstructured data' as you would think. STORED mode (and other modes) is when you are executing the query. When you have run the package, the template o/p has been stored in the reporting agent storage area. The mode parameter in the URL only directs OLAP to read from (if it is specified STORED, it will read from RSA, if NEW it will read from DB and so on).
>
> 7.Are all data_mode except new mode accessing precalc
> data in html option?
--: Not exactly as I understand. See the details of DATA_MODE for other options.
>
> 8.What does a precalc batch run mean? A Scheduled run
> of Reporting Agent?
--: Yes. The precalc definition is just that. You need to then define a package and include your definition of precalc in it and then run this package.
>
> 9.How is control query defined?
--: Control query is another query whose output is to be used as input (if you have filters on same CHAR.. in main web template) . This query is defined independently as any other query, you include it as a predefined query in your template def.
> 10. Is 'stored' mode precalc data stored in HTML
> option? Does this mean HTML format? Or every precalc
> is stored in html option? Can I say html option =
> html format?
--: You can say the precalc o/p is stored as HTML (not strictly true, you have two checkboxes to precalc data and HTML, normally you check both in which case your statement is true).

Precalculated Web Template Usage Statistics

Does anyone know if there are usage statistics stored for a web template that has been precalculated (HTML) through reporting agent? It is accessed through a URL with the DATA_MODE=STATIC querystring parameter added. The statistics are stored in RSDDSTAT when the reporting agent job runs, but not when a user requests the precalculated web template through the URL directly in a web browser. Are the usage statistics stored in another location, other than the RSDDSTAT table in this situation?

Hello,
We had the same problem and sorted out it but don´t using BW standard functionality. I added a image tag on all web template that reference to a .Net application. This application get Windows user from Internet Explorer and store statistics (user, time, webtemplate, filter options, etc) on a SQL Server Database. I don't finish the application frontend but we are getting good information directly of the database.
Let me know if I could give you more details.

BEx Web Template (BTMP) and Web Template (TMPL)

Hi,
I found in BI7 Objects, there are BEx Web Template (BTMP) and Web Template (TMPL). what's the different between them? For the BEx Web Template (BTMP), i can find in Web Application designer.
But for Web Template (TMPL), I cannot find them in Web Application designer. How can I edit them?
for example, there is a standard Web Template (TMPL) 0tpli_0tct_mc01_q0111, where can I change it?
Many Thanks
Jonathan

hello,
TMPL is for 3.5 template and BTMP is for BI 7.0 templates. For opening 7.0 template you need to use BI 7.0 WAD not 3.5 WAD.
you can open the standard template 0tpli_0tct_mc01_q0111 in WAD and then do save as to save it custom template.
Then you can edit the custom template and make the changes.
Make sure that the std. template is installed correctly.

Dhanya

IMPORT_FORMAT_ERROR while precalculating web template

Hello,
A process chain failed in Precalculation for Web Template step with an error message -

Precalculation Web Template

Which standard SAP web template should I use when testing the Precalculation server to distribute a workbook.
RSPRECADMIN
BW Excel Workbook Precalc Admin

Hi,
This is not possible for precalculated templates with precalculated data. As for precalculated HTML only normal drop-Downs are supported.
But you can use hierarchies in your control-Query. But for navigation you would need Drop-Down-Boxes
I would assume the best thing to boost performance is warm up the OLAP cache with the Reporting Agent.
