Hi,
Try maintaining Text for the InfoObjects on which you are creating variables.
Say like you have crated variable P on InfoObject company code...then maintain text for that InfoObject.

Variable assignment in BEx Broadcaster

I'm trying to broadcast a web template directly from the Broadcaster, and want to assign variables. I've tried Determine from Variant, and it works like a charm.
As I understand it I should be able to enter the variables manually by using Determine Here, but it doesn't seem to work for me.
I choose VAR_01 from the Name dropdown, and click Create. Then I can enter my variables, and then what? If I click OK the report is generated in the same popup window, and from there I can do nothing but close the window, and the variables are not assigned.
Can somebody help. Am I doing something wrong, is it a bug or have I simply misunderstood everything?

Jacob,
I have the same issue after I applied SP13 but I did not have this problem in SP11.
Please let me, [email protected], know if you have a solution for this? Thanks.

Broadcasting Workbooks Variable Assignments Question

We have several Workbooks that are being broadcast. The majority use Fiscal period and Fical year as input variables. Right now we have to manually go in and update the variable assignments for these broadcast every week.
Question -
Without have to setup a new custom variable in the queries that will default to the current week and year, is there a way to update the broadcast variables automatically with the current fiscal period and year?

As with any normal query - cmod the variable so it defaults to last week, current week based on sy-datlo or sy-datum and then find the last week
The broadcast setting will then fire with whatever has been defaulted
Edit - sorry I just saw your without cmoding how do I do it..
Sorry that's my only suggestion

Creating Text Variables to use in BEx Broadcaster

Creating Text Variables to use in BEx Broadcaster OR How to Broadcast reports (Excel output format) and dynamically generate each Excel file name
Hello,
I'm new into posting to this forum, but I always come here when I need some answers and I find them almost everytime.
But now I couldn't find a solution for my problem so I decided that maybe you can help me.
I'm using BEx Broadcaster (I'm working on a SAP BW 7.0, SP17) to broadcast to SAP Portal some Excel files generated from a query.
I use Filter Navigation, because the query provides me with information regarding Sales Orders from all my customers and I need to broadcast an Excel file per customer. This is working perfectly, meaning, with this query I put the Broadcaster generating an Excel file per Customer.
The problem is that I needed that each Excel file had a different name on it.
For example, for Customer1 the Excel file name should be something like Customer1_SalesOrder.xls, for Customer2 it should be Customer2_SalesOrder.xls and so on.
At the present, the Broadcaster generates each Excel file using the technical name of the Query that originated the file. You can use some stardard text variables that broadcaster has available, but these standard text variables don't solve my problem. I needed to create my own Text Variables so I could have the Customer ID on the file name.
Can someone give me a light on this?
Points are obviously awarded.
Thanks,
Cristina

Hi All,
I have a similar requirement, where I publish my reports on to the SAP PORTAL KM folders.
In my broacast setting for the web templates, I have the fisrt tab called
TARGET in PORTAL
File Name : ReportXX MONTHLY_<MONTH_ID> (F4) List
Currently I use the sys variable <MONTH_ID> which gives me the curr month;
My requirement is
If the report is run in the first week of the month, I want to generate a filename_PREVIOUS MONTH (label) and
if the report is run between 7th-30th of the month then to generate a filename_CURRENT MONTH (label)..
On BI.7 POTAL is it possible using some exit variables instead of the system variable which are given in the F4 List.
If so where do I create the exit variable in BW backend or the PORTAL itself so that I can access it from the F4list of of the filename column.
Thanking you in advance for you time.

Dynamic variable in Bex Broadcaster

We have a mandatory variable as 'Date' in the report. While creating the variant in Bex Broadcaster for sending mails daily - the date gets saved & remains constant. We need the date to be changed dynamically everyday when the mail is sent.
I would like to know how should I achieve this. Thanks. Helpful ans will be appreciated.

Hi,
You would need to create the Date variable as Customer Exit.
Populate the Date variable in CMOD by sy-datum or other logic, if u need. This will fix ur issue.
Steps: 1. Make the Mandatory (existing variable) to Customer Exit
2. Choose "Variable can be Input-Ready"
3. Write your code in CMOD for I_STEP = 1 to populate the sy-datum
If you do this, your existing variable will still be Mandatory, except the default value which will be shown in that is Current Date (Sy-datum). This should resolve your probs.

Chathia.

Bex Broadcasting with Variable

Hello Gurus,
I have a BI Report that has calendar date as selection screen which by default displays current date(18.03.2011) .
After running the Report and scheduling the report to send through email every day via Bex Broadcasting tool. That works fine for today (18.03.2011).
But tomorrow when I receive the report through the email . This variable automatically not changing to tomorrows date ie 19.03.2011 so still shows the data for 18.03.2011.
Is there any way to change this date field automatically through Broadcasting .
Thanks for your resposne.

You have two options:
1) If the calendar variable is not ready for input then it will automatically update.
2) I am assuming you created a variant and the broadcast always shows the data for the day you saved the variant. In BEx 3.5, you can save a variant without saving the value for calendar day. This variant will force the default value every day. If you didnot create a variant and are just setting the variable values in the broadcaster, then you should create a variant as explained above and set the broadcaster to use the variant.

Variable string "VAR_01" is not filled - BEX Broadcasting - General precal

Hello BEX guru,
When trying to use BEX broadcasting ->General precalculation (trying to precalculate liket the old reporting agent), i am getting this error. However, once going to the "Variable Values" to create I am getting the "BEX web Analysis" screen with prompt to "new analysis, open, save as...tab". I've tried using RSRT and create a global variable for one of my query that has the variable prompt but still nothing. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
HarryT

Hi,
For the webtemplate, create a global variant. This variant you can use it the precalculation.

BEx Broadcaster (Wizard) Settings - step 2 Mandatory Variables

Hi all,
when trying to broadcast a query by using the BEx Broadcaster Wizard I stumbled upon something where i need some help from you guys.
At step 2 'Specify Variable Assignment' it says that ' mandatory variables exist' and that I must specify 'how these variables must be filled during precalculation'. After selecting the first variable in the drop down menu e.g. VAR_01 it says 'Variable Values Create' . Clicking on create just brings me to another window where i can run the analyzer again... and I don't really know what to do next, because it seems i can't really create or select something to create the necessary value for step 2.
Thanks in advance,
Steven

Hi,
When you are doing precalculation of query , the variable should be filled automatically ,this you can achieve by writing customer exit variable..
Also check the below link..

Bex Broadcaster can't click past OK in variable assignement

Hi All,
Form the portal Broadcast settings in general precalculation settings when I try to change variable values selection from that actual screen I can't click past ok after selecting the variable.
we are BW 7.02 and on IE8
from reading some posts on SDN i have already tried and I have turned of SmartScreen Filter off/ Phising filter off and also looked at note
1498753 - Variable screen not closed in Bex Broadcaster, but this has not resolved our issue.
has anyone else faced a similar issue
Thanks
Forhad

Thank you for your suggestion. I want to make sure I understand you correctly so I have a few questions.
Is this transparent table that you are using in your BW system or in your ECC system? Our BW and ECC systems are on different machines using different databases. Do you load the data from this table into your BW system for this to work? I think I understand that you are creating a way to create the missing master data so the BEX 7 query does not give the error message allowing the user to input their range of values.
If I understand you correctly I would create my Z table in our ECC system with the fields you mentioned, create a DSO or something simple in our BW system and load the data each time a user wants to use a new range of values for the field so that the field's master data would exist.
Am I understanding you correctly?
I don't think this solution, if I am understanding it correctly, will work for us because I don't think I can just add new Vendor Numbers like you were able to do with a date field. The Vendor is tied to a lot of other things, master data, ...
Thanks,
Jeri

Problem in delevering an email to the recipent inbox using BEx Broadcaster.

Hi Gurus,
I was trying to send an e-mail with output format(HTML,PDF,EXCEL etc) using BEx Braodcaster wizard - Whenever I press execute in BI 7.0 BEx Broadcaster wizard after giving e-mail adress, contents, and subject the session is closing and it displays the message.. 'Started to send document Zxxx.hmt' .
But finally the recipent is not getting an e-mail in to his inbox. It shows the status as sent but no mail is delevered with the attachment. Receipent e-mial address is correct and sender settings in SU01 are (ex. E-mail adrress, username, and Communication method - E-mail ).
I dont understand why e-mails are not delivering to the recipent inbox. Could you please guide me in this regard with your inputs ?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Sasi

Hi,
call transaction SCOT and see if you have error or in transit messages under the internet node;
You can start the send process manually from here and if it works (ask your basis if it doesn't)...
Please note that you need to schedule a job to be executed on regular basis to send the emails... (menu view / jobs)
hope this helps...
