Printing on Web - web template with multiple queries

Hi.
Trying to print to PDF from the Web, when I have more than 1 query in the web template, using Tabs.
When the report has been run, if I select the tab for report A and then Print, I need report A to be printed. Similarly, if I have selected the tab for report B I expect report B to be printed.
Is this possible without resorting to HTML coding direct? If so, can you tell me how, please? I have no problem printing single queries, the issue is how to print different reports without having several Print buttons. If it CAN only be done by HTML coding, could you send me some sample code please?
As well as offering points for useful answers, I can also offer my Word document where I have broken 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN in to its components, with screenshots... I have found it invaluable.
Thanks,
Patrick

The answer was to use the Tabstrip web item... although I still have to define a set of buttons for each tab, only one set is visible at a time, which is fine

Question about templates with multiple queries

I am just starting out with BI Publisher, v.10.1.3.2. I have a report that has multiple queries, but my template is just based on 1 query. How can I make the template use more than one query?
Thanks!!

Web dynpro screen with multiple rows with columns that can be edited

Web dynpro screen with multiple rows with columns that can be edited individually:
Hi
I am busy creating a screen in web dynpro for ABAP which we would like to make available via Portal ESS (Portal 7).
I need to add 'n type of table (or almost something like Excel) or something in which someone can type a few paycode numbers (there should be lets say 10 blank rows in which info can be typed in and if I click on a button or so, more rows must be added if necessary. Then in the other colums stuff like amounts must be entered which one should also be able to edit then and there.
Can anyone assist in what I can use for this? There does not seem to be some existing element that I can use.
Help will be appreciated.
Regards
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
Whiel Creating table you need to be care full that use chose INPUT FIELD as the CELL EDITOR. Just guessing that if ur table is not editable u might have choosen TextView as default cell editor type.
check link for details on TABLE UI
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/EN/b5/ac884118aa1709e10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
easy way is to first add UI ELEMENT TABLE to your VIEW, then right click over it & select create binding from context. After you have a pop up where you can select what columns you want what should be its cell editor etc.
Greetings

Bursting a report with multiple queries

Hi,
I need to set-up bursting in BIP for a report with multiple queries. The output format is pdf and delivery is through e-mail. Since the queries need to be linked, I'm trying to do this using data template. I've set-up split and burst based on a field (store_id) from the first query which is used as a bind variable in the subsequent queries. So I'd ideally want the report to be split based on store_id. The report works fine if I use a parameter for store_id and view the output by store_id. When I try to schedule the report for bursting, it generates and e-mails the reports but only the last report appears to have correct data output while the others have only the output from the first query (and all other queries appear to return nothing in the report).
Any suggestions on what could be the issue here? Thanks!
Here is the data template for the report:

Hello user6428199,
When you use ":Q1_STORE_ID" in your queries, BI Publisher looks for a report parameter named Q1_STORE_ID. Change all your report queries to get data for all the store_id's available. As you are bursting the report using the store_id as the bursting key, BI Publisher will split the report based on the stored_id and delivers content based on it. No matter how many queries you may have, BI Publisher will loop through all the store_id's available and all the queries will return data for that particular id in a report.
Thanks,
Machaan

Exporting a template with multiple images

Let's assume I want to have a large print made at an outside commecial lab because my printer does not handle the size.
In the Print Module, is there a way to export a template with multiple images so that it can be sent to an outside lab for printing?
Or, is this not possible and I would have to design the template in Photoshop and send the file to the lab?
If Lightroom is not yet capable of this, it certainly seems like a worthwhile feature.

Thanks for sticking with this thread to help me.
I am on Windows and I do have PDF capability, the full Adobe Acrobat Professional.
I have been experimenting with your suggestions and, yes, saving it as a PDF and bringing it into Photoshop is a workaround. The images and Identity plate come into Photoshop as they appear in the template in Lightroom.
What doesn't appear in Photoshop is the whitespace(margins)around the images. They appear in the PDF, but they don't appear when I open the PDF in Photoshop. Is there a setting I'm overlooking in the PDF settings dialog that will correct this? Or, is this just the way importing a PDF works when it comes to margins? Must I always go to Image/Canvas size to get the canvas I want? Is there a way of not having to do this?

Poor Performance 7.0 Workbook with multiple queries

Hi all,
I've got the following issue. Our users have workbooks which contain serveral queries on different sheets. (One on each workbook sheet)
When a workbook contains 5 or more queries, the overall workbook performance will decrease drastically. Workbook with 8 or more queries result in time-outs and messages like unsufficient shared memory.
Does anyone have the same kind of problems with multiple queries in a Bex 7.0 workbook? Do any one have a solution?
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Ron

Bill,
Tried to make a workbook according to your advise. It certainly makes a difference in workbook size. The new workbook is 50% smaller than the older version based on the standard SAP template.
However, my workbook contains 17 queries, and after 5 minutes it breaks the BW connection. So basic conclusion is that BW 7.0 workbook can't work with a large number of dataproviders/ queries. This did work in BEx BW 3.x.
If any one has any other suggestion, more than welcome.
Cheers,
Ron

Report with Multiple queries too slow in BI Publisher 11g

Hi, I have a report in 11g where i need to create multiple queries to show them in report. I tried to combine everything in one query, but i found that the query is too huge and hard to understand and maintain. I created 3 data sets and linked them together. In SQL dev, the main query is returning about 315 records and first detail query returns less than 100 records and second detail query is returning one record which is BLOB. Each query returns data within a couple of seconds from SQL Developer. The entire report from BI Publisher should be just 21 page PDF output. Did anyone face performance issues while running reports with multiple queries in 11g? I ran reports that have single query which returned 10K pages PDF and never had an issue while everthing is in one query. This is the first time Iam attempting to create multiple queries. Can someone help me understand what i might be doing wrong or missing here. Thank you.

Isn't there a way for you to do this via a Package/Procedure versus having multiple queries?
Per the BI Publisher guide,
Following are recommended guidelines for building data models:
Reduce the number of data sets or queries in your data model as much as possible. In general, the fewer data sets and queries you have, the faster your data model will run. While multiquery data models are often easier to understand, single-query data models tend to execute more quickly. It is important to understand that in parent-child queries, for every parent, the child query is executed.
You should only use multiquery data models in the following scenarios:
To perform functions that the query type, such as a SQL query, does not support directly.
To support complex views (for example, distributed queries or GROUP BY queries).
To simulate a view when you do not have or want to use a view.

Workbook with multiple queries on multiple tabs

Scenario: There is a workbook with multiple queries on multiple tabs.
In 3.x, it was possible to refresh only a select query within the WB but I'm not finding this to be the case in the NW04s BEx Analyzer. It seems that it will always refresh all queries on all tabs.
Do any of you know a way around this?

Hi Bigtoja (and others).
This is not possible in BI/2004s.
Please refer to https://websmp106.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700004483762006E page 23. It seems that it will be implemented in a stack sometime in 2008.

Creating report with multiple queries in clear quest

Hi,
I am new to reports and currently working with creating reports that connect to clear quest(CQ).
I have successfully created several reports, that connect to the CQ, but they all have data from only one query.
Now I am trying to create a slightly complex report where I need to fetch data from multiple queries. All these queries use 2 parameter to filter their data. I have dynamic cascading parameters to get them. When just connecting they all work ok. I used the link tab to link them to two fields of one query, to make sure that they all filter to fields from same query.
The problem is when I drop the fields from the various queries on the form, the data is fetched multiple times.
I also played with links to make them outer links but in that case I get error and unable to run the report completely.
Any ideas on how to work with multiple queries and provide same parameters to all of the queries?
Thanks in advance.
-PAP

- How do I make sure that the relationship is not one to many?
You don't. That's the nature of the data. For example a single person can order multiple items. A simple one to many relationship.
- In the link tab, I can only point to queries, is there a way I can point the fields to report params?
You should be seeing tables... I think you're having a tough time with the basic terminology.
- How does these Enforce Joins (4 options) work.
There is rarely if ever any reason to switch from the default "not enforced". Leave it alone. The only one you'll touch 90% of the time is the Join Type.
PAP,
Based on the questions you're asking, it sounds like you are missing some major database fundamentals. My suggestion would be to step away from CR for the time being and read a little bit about relational databases (what makes them relational) and database normalization. This will also give you an idea about the various join types and when to use one over the other.
You can know every feature and function in CR, but until you have at least a basic knowledge of how data relates, you'll never pull in the data you need.

Web Template with multiple Data Provider Query with partial authority

Dear Guru,
I have a single web template, that contains 2 query data providers (e.g. Query A, Query B), and all users access to this web template for both queries.
Now, there are some users that have authority to Query A only.
When they access to this web template, the system automatically say the users do not have authority for Query B in the variable entry screen, and show the variable selection for query A only.
And the problem comes, when user submit the variable entries, the system keep asking for the mandatory variables for query B, which the user actually not authorized to execute. How can this be fixed??
Please kindly help me. Thank You.
Best regards,
Chris

Web service URL with multiple parameters

Hi all,
I'm trying to make use of a web service that takes multiple parameters without the use of a proxy (we're using NW 7/7.1 and proxies aren't supported - i.e. i'm getting the same thing as described here: Proxy object to consume web service)
So instead I'm trying to follow a method similar to what is done [here|http://sample-code-abap.blogspot.com/2009/05/simple-code-consume-web-service-using.html]
When I put the web service url into a browser and click on the operation it comes up with
http://portLocation/company/webservice.asmx?op=operation
and comes up with the sample SOAP request and response as normal.
Now with most web services with one parameter, the url translates to something like: http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx/GetCitiesByCountry?CountryName=australia
Which works fine.
However, the web service i'm using has 4 parameters and when I try and translate my url to be like this (http://portLocation/Company/WebService.asmx/Operation?parameter1=XX&parameter2=XX&parameter3=XX&parameter4=XX) I get, "The page cannot be displayed"
Can anyone suggest a way that I might be able to get around this or what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
are you sure that your Operation is valid? So for example in your [example|http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx] there are just two operations: [GetCitiesByCountry|http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx/GetCitiesByCountry] and [GetWeather|http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx/GetWeather]. You are right about passing multiple parameters. You need to put ? after valid URL and then pairs <name>=<value> separated by &. Don't forget that you need to encode <name> and <value> to avoid problems.
Cheers

Single report with multiple queries OR multiple reports with single query

Hello Experts,
I have a confusion regarding Live Office connection for many days. I asked many people but did not get a concrete answer. I am re-posting this question here and expecting an answer this time.
The product versions that I am using are as follows:
FrontEnd:
BOE XI 3.1 SP4 FP 4.1
Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP4
Backend:
SAP BW 7.0 EHP1
I have created a dashboard which is getting data from a webi report using LO connections.
The webi report has five report parts which are populated by five different queries.
Now my question is, when the five LO connections are refreshed, is the webi report refreshed five times or just once?
If the report is refreshed five times, then I guess it is better to have five different webi reports containing single report part, because in that way we can prevent same query being executed multiple times.
SO what is the best practice- to have a single report having multiple queries - OR - to create multiple webi reports with single query?
Thanks and Regards,
PASG

HI
I think Best Practice is Multiple reports with single query
Any way If LO connections refresh 5 time the query will refresh 5 timesRegards

Order of the Merged Prompts with Multiple Queries

Hi,
I have a WEBI XI 3.0 document that contains multiple queries.
One of the queries in the document has the following prompts in this order:
"Date:"
"Time:"
"Time zone:"
"Address:"
Another query in the document has the following prompts in this order:
"Date:"
"Time:"
"Name:"
"Address:"
If I do a Refresh All in the document, the prompts are merged and displayed in the following order:
"Date:"
"Time:"
"Time zone:"
"Address:"
"Name:"
However, I want "Address:" to be the last prompt displayed:
"Date:"
"Time:"
"Time zone:"
"Name:"
"Address:"
Is there a way to specify the order of the merged prompts?

Hi,
To define the particular order of the prompts all the prompts should be at the universe level or at the report level.
As all the prompts defined at the universe level will appear first in alphabetical order and then the report level prompts will appear also sorted alphabetically.
In your case if possible create the prompt of Address at the report level and other prompts at the universe level it will automatically appear as the last one when you refresh all the queries.
Else you can change the prompt string to define the particular order.
@Prompt('1. Enter Date'.....)
@Prompt('2. Enter Time'.....)
@Prompt('3. Enter Time Zone....)
@Prompt('4. Enter Name'....)
@prompt('5. Enter Address'...)
Note: All the above prompts should be created either at the report level or universe level.

Matrix report with Multiple queries

I have created one cross product group containing 4 subgroups under a single query. Now I have another one query seperately to be joined with the matrix query. Also I have one formula column and summary column with this the cross product group. The logic is if formula condition is true the it should take the 2nd query value in the place holder column otherwise it should take the first query value. is it possible?
If any one knows about this update me ASAP to [email protected]

Isn't there a way for you to do this via a Package/Procedure versus having multiple queries?
Per the BI Publisher guide,
Following are recommended guidelines for building data models:
Reduce the number of data sets or queries in your data model as much as possible. In general, the fewer data sets and queries you have, the faster your data model will run. While multiquery data models are often easier to understand, single-query data models tend to execute more quickly. It is important to understand that in parent-child queries, for every parent, the child query is executed.
You should only use multiquery data models in the following scenarios:
To perform functions that the query type, such as a SQL query, does not support directly.
To support complex views (for example, distributed queries or GROUP BY queries).
To simulate a view when you do not have or want to use a view.
