Problem in scheduling a 6i report from SRS

Hi Guys,
I have a 6i report which is a concurrent program. I want to schedule this concurrent program to run every month on a particular day. Also, my 6i report has a date parameter. For ex: the date parameter is " For the month of:", if we enter dec-2004, it will give you the information for that month. so now my problem is , I am scheduling this report to run every month on a particular day. When it comes to next month, the parameter date also should change to that month from the previous month automatically. i.e it should be now Jan-2005 and display the information for that month.
any ideas of how this can be done
help appreciated
Thanks

under the parameters use a SQL instead of constant.

Schedule a Webi report from the CMC

Hi, ALL
Is there a way to schedule a Webi report from the CMC without using an email account in the
'from' box? There are other placeholders that can be used but I don't know how
to use them please advise.
Thanks.

Hermant,
You need to make sure you configure the proper email server. Go to the CMC - Server > AdaptiveJobServer>Destination>Email. You may need to enable Email as one of the Destinations.
You must configure all the HIGHLIGHTED options.

Scheduling web intelligence reports from SAP EP Portal : Server Side Trust

Hello,
We have set-up SSO between SAP EP 701, SAP BI 701 and Business Object XI 3.1 to allow users to access reports without having to sign-on again as explained here :
/people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/09/19/businessobjects-and-sap--configure-sap-authentication
But, we have recently been contacted by some users because when scheduling Webi Report from a link within the portal they have the following errors :
u201CA database error occured. The database error text is: Unable to connect to SAP BW server System received an expired SSO ticket. (WIS 10901) u201D
The user told us that he doesn't encounter the error when :
Login in directly to the BO Infoview (without SSO from the SAP Enterprise Portal.)
The first Webi scheduling is succesful from the portal (I suppose because the portal token is still valid)
I understand that we also have to configure the Server Side Trust between BO Enterprise server and the SAP BI7 backend as explained here , but I do not really understand its purpose
https://websmp106.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001646962008E/XI3-1_BIP_SAP_INSTALL_EN.pdf
I've found a similar discussions here ;
Issue with SAP Single Sign-On and Scheduling Reports
I still have some questions :
If we configure the Server Side Trust between BO Enterprise server and the SAP BI7 backend .
The Portal Logon ticket will remain an issue at some point of time , does it mean tha the WeBi report job sheduling should not be perfromed from the SAP EP Portal ?
We haven't configured the Server Side Trust , yet the users told us that they are able to schedule webi report directly from the BO Infoview ? How is it posible ?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Regards.

Thank you Mr Hilgefort for your detailled explanations.
I now have to provide some explanations to my managers, and to be honest , there are still some points that
are unclear to me, and it would be extremely helpful if could confirm (or not) the follwoing points.
When scheduing Webi report from the sap portal, we're getting SSO errors.
SAP provide the follwoing note explaining how to extend the validity of the J2EE token (Portal token), but this is not a long term solution, at certain point of time the ticket will expire. Webi shceduling should not be perfromed from the Portal.
Sap note 1352127 - Scheduled Webi report fails with: A database error occurred. The database error text is: Unable to connect to SAP BW server System received an expired SSO ticket
Webi Scheduling should be performed from BO Infoview. SNC should be configured between BO server and SAP BI7.0 backend.
We should Configure Server SNC as explained in the BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Solutions Installation and Administration Guide at Chapter "Configuring SAP for server-side trust". (1341043)
The SAP Portal is not involved here and is not an option even with the configuration of SNC/Server side trust.
thank you for your patience.
Best Regards.

hello,
there are two ways to do this :
1) submit two jobs, one that prints and one that creates the PDF
2) use reports advanced distribution to print and create a PDF file on the server as part of the same job, and then use web.show_document to bring up the PDF in the browser.
however, this brings up the question, why exactly you want to print and display at the same time. why not display it and let the user print form Acrobat Reader.
thanks,

Can I schedule and email reports from ACS 5.1

I would like to receive a report daily on our TACACS activity on our network devices. I've looked thru the menus and searched some but have not found a clear way to generate such a report.
any help is appreciated.

Working with Scheduled Reports
In ACS 5.5, you can schedule reports for a future date in such a way that ACS automatically generates the report. This can be done using the scheduled reports feature available in the Monitoring and Reports web interface. This feature is available only for the for RADIUS authentication, RADIUS accounting, TACACS+ authentication, TACACS+ authorization, and TACACS+ accounting reports. ACS generates the scheduled reports based on the given time range, exports them to a .csv file, and stores them in the specified remote repository.
Previous releases of ACS allowed you to export reports and copy the .csv file to the local file system. You need to copy the exported file using the copy command to a remote location. But in ACS 5.5, you have the option to configure the remote repository to which the generated reports are exported and stored.
An email notification is sent whenever a scheduled report is generated successfully. The email notification contains the following information:
Scheduled Report Name—Name of the scheduled report.
Cause—The reason for which you have received this email or alarm notification. In this case, the notification is a scheduled report alarm.
Details—The details of the email notification.
Repository Name—Name of the remote repository where the generated reports are stored.
Repository URL—URL of the remote repository.
File Name—Name of the generated report. The format of the filename is <Name of the Scheduled Report>-<Report Type>. For instance, if the name of the scheduled report is “report1” and the report type is RADIUS_Accounting, then the filename is displayed as: report1-RADIUS_Accounting.csv
Generated on—The date and time at which the report is generated.
ACS does not generate any alarms or email notifications if a scheduled report generation fails. To know the status of the scheduled reports, go to the Monitoring Configuration > System Operations > Scheduler page and check for the status.

[Infoview - BOXI3.1] Error when attempting to schedule a crystal report

Hi,
I have an error, when i attempt to schedule a report. When i click on the "Format" link I get the error below:
An error has occurred:Item SI_XSLT_INFO was not found in the collection.
Googling this error suprisingly returns no results! I have no idea what could be at fault and would love to get some help from any experts! I am a very new user to business objects enterprise.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Dom

Hi Friend,
I faced the same problem while scheduling the crystal report in BO XI R3 Infoview.
How I resolved it is by publishing(Using Publishing Wizard) the crystal report in the BO XI R3 enterprise and then scheduling. It worked fine.
The crystal report which I created was in Crystal Reports XI and the new BO XI Infoview supports Crystal Reports 2008.
I think this might be the problem.
Thanks and Regards

WORD Error message -- Report from Template

Hello everyone,
I try to generate a "Report from Template" with transaction CG03.
I can select the generation variant and the parameter values in the next two pop-ups.
WORD is starting but then there is the error message:
"Word cannot read this document. Maybe it is corrupted. Try the following:
- open and repair the file
- open file with repair-textconverter".
This message is a translation from german to english so the correct messagt might differ from this.
When I look at my frontend PC in the local settings I see that the respective files are written, but I can´t open them.
This problem started two days ago out of nowwhere.
Additional information: Visual Basic pops up after the error message is closed with "runtime error '1055'.
A debugger is opened and this is the content of the window:
Private Sub TmpDDE()
Dim Template
WordBasic.FileOpen "C:DOKUME1chgiLOKALE1TempRehsfil0.WWI"
WordBasic.FileTemplates Template:="C:ProgrammeSAPFrontEndsapguiwwiwwi.dot"
WordBasic.Call "wwiES.S", "S", ""
End Sub
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance for your help!!!!
Best regards,
Christoph

Hello Christoph
any change happened on your client? New Windows version? New Word Version? New WWI Version installed? Did you manupulated Standad Dot path etc.? Did you change Standard.dot of Word?
Can you open in cg54/cg50 any document (ready, released or historic) without a problem and the problem is related only to "report from template"?
During WWI process a number of files are passed on to your client. Can you use Wordpad to open the files? I am not sure but I believe per WWI document there should be something like 4 or 5 documents in your local WWI path. One containing the data, one containing the template and some others (named something like resfil, lesfil etc.).
An error like you described is normally related to one of the above mentioned changes. Can you use "Report from template "regarding the same spec, same genvariant same language with a different client without a problem => then it is clear you have a local problem
With best regards
C.B.

FBL3N : i have a problem when i print a report

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem when i print a report from Tcode : FBL3N
- i didn't have the last line of the report
- i have two pages : i want just one because it is a small report
I choosed this Format : X_65_200
Please help me to solve these issues.
Thanks.

Try to choose a layout that has 65 lines.
If the report is too wide you might change the line layout (take out columns you do not need) until it is ok to print on 1 page.
Regards

From 6i to 10g "How to run a 10g report from OEM scheduler"

We recently converted all of our 6i form and reports to 10g. We had forms and reports running as batch processes.
Now that we are using 10g it is understood that we cannot run the forms as we did in 6i using OEM scheduler, so they were converted to scripts.
Our problem still remains, How do we run 10g reports as batch processes?
Can we use OEM scheduler?
Is there a better product to accomplish this task?
...

Hello,
How do you execute your Reports ?
Do you execute it from the Builder ?
If you execute it from the Builder, do you use Run Web Layout or Run Paper Layout ?
(If you have upgraded a Reports From 6i, there is no web layout , so you have to use the Run paper Layout
The web layout is something new that appeared in Reports 9.0.2)

Problem accessing scheduled report results

Hi,
I was able to schedule a Disco report successfully. From Disco desktop scheduling manager, I was monitoring the results. After the status says "Report ready", I clicked the "Open" button.
For the first dialog message "Do you want to open the results of this sheet? If you click No the sheet will be empty.", I clicked Yes button.
Then I get the second dialog message "The results run for this scheduled workbook can no longer be used because the query has changed. Do you want to query the database now for the new results?". What does this message mean? Nothing has changed in the report or database or EUL since I scheduled this report. I have been getting this message for all my scheduled reports and it defeats the purpose of scheduling.
Does anybody know what this message means and how can I resolve this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I am only guessing here but is it possible that the update date on your workbooks has got set in the future. Hence, when the schedule report finishes it checks the update date of the workbook and thinks that the workbook has been updated because it was updated after the schedule report has finished. It then prompts you to re-query for the results.
If you create a new workbook and schedule it do you get the same problem?

Problem with calling a report from a function module. Please help! URGENT!

Hi Experts,
   I have a scenarion like this:
XI -
> Function Module -
> ABAP Report
From XI I am callingf a function module in another R/3 system. This function module inturn calls a ABAP report using SUBMIT statement. The function module and the report reside in the same R/3 system.
I am calling the report like this:
SUBMIT yseg_save_bp_data WITH SELECTION-TABLE rspar
                             AND RETURN.
The problem is when I run the function module directly in the R/3 system then it calls the report without any problem.
On the other hand, when I call the function module from XI then the report is not called. On debug mode I found that the program exits just at the Submit statement. Why is this strange problem?
What mistake am I doing? Is there any limitations or restrictions with SUBMIT statement.
What is the correct way of using submit statement in this scenario?
Kindly help me!
Thanks
Gopal

Hi Rao,
   I have created the FM as remote RFC. Infact XI is able to call the FM. Only problem is when it reaches the point where the report is called via SUBMIT it exits.
Help me please!
Thanks

CALLING A REPORT FROM FORMS (PROBLEM)

MY PROBLEM IS THE NEXT:
I CREATED A MASTER-DETAIL REPORT CALLING 'ASUNTOS'WITH THE NEXT QUERY:
SELECT ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_P,ABOGADOS.APELLIDO_M,ABOGADOS.NOMBRES,
ASUNTOS.EXP_INT,ASUNTOS.MATERIA,ASUNTOS.GERENCIA,
ASUNTOS.EMPRESA,ASUNTOS.RECLAMA,ASUNTOS.PESOS,
ASUNTOS.DOLARES
FROM ABOGADOS,ASUNTOS
WHERE ABOGADOS.FICHA = ASUNTOS.F_ABOG
AND ASUNTOS.F_ABOG = :ABOGADO ;
-- ABOGADO = PARAMETER.
THIS REPORT WORKS FINE THE PROBLEM IS WHEN I TRY CALL THIS REPORT FROM FORM I'VE USE A BUTTON(WHEN_BUTTON_PRESSED) WITH THE NEXT CODE:
DECLARE
LISTA PARAMLIST := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
BEGIN
IF ID_NULL(LISTA) THEN
LISTA := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('ABOG');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'DESTYPE',TEXT_PARAMETER,'PRINTER');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'DESNAME',TEXT_PARAMETER,'LPT2');
ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'ABOGADO',TEXT_PARAMETER,TO_CHAR(:ASUNTOS.F_ABOG));
-- ADD_PARAMETER(LISTA,'PARAMFORM',TEXT_PARAMETER,'YES');
END IF;
RUN_PRODUCT(REPORTS,'ASUNTOS',SYNCHRONOUS,RUNTIME,FILESYSTEM,LISTA,NULL);
END;
BUT THE REPORT NOTHING DISPLAY.
THERE ARE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CODE IN THE BUTTON

Roberto,
Does your report work when it is not called from Forms?
try the following:
[TOOLS_HOME]\BIN\RWRUN60 module=ASUNTOS destype=screen userid=<username>/<password>@<tns> ABOGADO=<some_valid_code>
where TOOLS_HOME is the directory where Reports is installed.
I can see nothing wrong with your code.
Maybe some error in the query?
Also, I would check for the existence of multiple ASUNTOS report definitions. Maybe Forms is calling an older one.
Hope this helps,
