Publish/Schedule

Hello Gurus,
I would like to know the difference between Scheduling a WEBI report and Publishing a WEBI report in XIR3?
Is there any difference between the two?
And how can we do Report bursting in XIR3?

Hi,
please review the chapter Working with Publishing in the +BusinessObjects Enterprise InfoView
User's Guide+ for XI 3.0 for more information on publishing.
please review the section Scheduling Objects in the +BusinessObjects Enterprise InfoView
User's Guide+ for XI 3.0 for more information on scheduling.
Shortly:
When scheduling a WebI report, you instruct the system to let it run for a certain parameter set at a given time. The result is stored in your system and it called instance.
In a publication you can include more than one reports (several kinds too) and define how and to whom you want to delivered them to. Then you can run/schedule your publication and the content will be delivered as defined at a given point in time.

BI Publisher Scheduling Error

Hi Experts,

BI Scheduler doesn't stop Publisher scheduled jobs

Hi guys!
We are facing the issue that we want to stop all Publisher scheduled jobs, so we went to "report job history" and marked all jobs as "cancelled". That jobs gets the status of "cancelling" but never stops. Any idea? We had restarted coreaplication server but it does not help.
Any workaround to "delete" that jobs?
Thanks for your time! Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Ariel

I am also facing same issue with BI Publisher Scheduler but showing below mentioned error while creating new job.
Error
"Job submission failed : Error occurred while scheduling the job. org.quartz.ObjectAlreadyExistsException: Unable to store Job with name: '-1' and group: 'weblogic', because one already exists with this identification."

BI Publisher Scheduling Problem

Hi Experts,
Our BI Publisher is currently integrated with siebel, whenever i tried generating 35k records bip report via manual generation in siebel, it completed successfully, however when i tried generating it via bip scheduling it fails. Do you have any idea why this is happening? note that if i generate less number of records bip scheduler successfully generated the report. Hope you could help me on this.
Thanks in Advance!

hope this helps
if u have meta link u can check this document (ID 1359304.1) regarding this error
and now recent is a bug .[ID 1430802.1] so it is a bug u were hitting
Symptoms
Siebel BI Publisher Scheduled Report jobs that use large data set (mostly over 10000 rows) fail with XDO error on the BI Publisher Server:
[111511_135636875][oracle.apps.xdo.servlet.scheduler.XDOJob][EXCEPTION] [ID:904]
Exception occurred while processing the document.

ava:520)
Caused by: oracle.apps.xdo.servlet.data.DataException: Requested data type does
not match with existing data type
Cause
The issue occurs when a Siebel BIP Report based on an Integration Component that has more than 20 Integration Component Fields and processing over 20000-30000 records is run as a Scheduled Job on the BI Publisher server. This behavior can be reproduced with out-of-box reports also, provided the Integration Component has more than 20 fields.
A Product Bug:13398030 has been logged to request a fix in the future release of Siebel CRM.
Solution
Workaround
The report can be run in interactive/ real-time mode rather than running as a scheduled job.
NOTE: Please implement the solution as documented in the Document 1064043.1 to be able to run large data volume reports.
For document 1064043.1 this is the link https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/ui/km/DocumentDisplay.jspx?_afrLoop=560666563922074&id=1064043.1&_afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=j5m2csomr_120
Permanent Solution
The fix for this issue will be released in the Siebel CRM 8.1.1.9 Fix Pack.

BI Publisher scheduler error ,plz help me how to fix these kind of errors

BI publisher scheduler error while we schedule the report in BIP.
Guide me what need to be done .... many of reports are running and failed everyday.
Help me regarding the issue..
Thanks,
Ram

Take a look at this thread if you haven't already: Re: Schedule problems
Based on the error message, it appears to be an issue with privileges. Make sure the user specified in the error message has the privilege to access the report.
Also I believe usernames are case sensitive, so check that out as well..

Desktop Publisher Scheduled Report Limits

Post Author: bicknell
CA Forum: crystalreports.com
Using the crystalreports.com desktop publisher, a customer scheduled the upload of 80+ reports to crystalreports.com on a dailybasis. Some of the jobs were failing and others seemed like they were being run continuously. There are two significant points to know about the desktop publisher:When the desktop publisher uploads a file to crystalreports.com, the program needs to logon to crystalreports.com using your crystalreports.com user account. The site only allows 10 concurrent logons for the same account at any one time. This effectively limits you to scheduling 10 documents at any one time.If you are refreshing these reports before they are uploaded, the number of concurrent refreshes will be limited by the resources of your computer. It is a fairly expensive process in terms of memory and CPU time, especially if you have a large number of records in each report. We've had another customer report that they could only actually refresh about 10 reports at a time before they started getting failures. This could be a combination of report size/complexity and the processing power of your computer. Note: The ODC and SFDC connector are designed to handle much bigger tasks than the desktop publisher. The desktop publisher is designed for lightweight loads not exceeding 10 connections.

Hi JD,
I'm not sure about the "unable to connect to the file" error you are seeing. Can you post the exact wording of the error and where you are seeing it? If you can post a screen shot of the error, that would be great. If you change the file name of the rpt on your hard drive, the task won't be able to find it the next time it runs. Could that be the problem?
You should be able to create a task in the desktop publisher, point it to a report and schedule it - at that time, it will prompt you for the db logon and parameter values. Once you have supplied that info, the task will run according to whatever recurrence pattern you have set - daily, weekly, whatever. Each time the task runs, it will try to refresh the rpt file with the db logon and parameter values you specified and upload the rpt file to crystalreports.com.
You should always be able to open the rpt file in Crystal Reports, however I have seen a problem where the rpt file gets corrupted if you run out of disk space when the report is being saved after the refresh. The error we got from this though was that the rpt file had been corrupted. I don't think it complained about not being an rpt file.
Yes, you should be able to use a salesforce.com db connection and you should be able to configure the desktop publisher task to run every 30 minutes.
Yes, if you do edit the rpt file you should see the changes the next time the task runs. We have found problems where you will get an error on uploading to cr.com using the overwrite option if the rpt file has been changed "too much". Most often this only applies to the db connection changing too much. If you are just editing the report layout, that should be fine.

BI Publisher Scheduler Failure

Hello All,
Here is the error that I am getting when trying to schedule a BI Publisher report. Could you please help me solve this issue?
Enterprise Scheduler--------------Critical-------------     Start Error; JMSAdminWrapper failed to start JMSWrapper, weblogic.jms.common.JMSSecurityException: Access denied to resource:
type=, application=BipJmsResource, destinationType=queue, resource=BIP.Burst.Job.Q_auto_1, action=receive
JMS----------------------Failed-----------------Access denied to resource: type=, application=BipJmsResource, destinationType=queue, resource=BIP.Burst.Job.Q_auto_1, action=browse
Thank you very much.

By any chance have you changed the BISystemUser account to something different? We implemented an Active Directory Authentication provider in Weblogic on our OBIEE 11g server and changed BISystemUser out for a different account. We started seeing these errors not long after. We solved it by doing the following:
Go to weblogic console
Expand Services
Expand Messaging
Click JMS Modules
Click BipJmsResource
Click Security
Click Policies
Add Or condition so that the policy conditions end up as:
     User: NameOfNewSystemAccount
     Or
     User: BISystemUser

BI Publisher -Schedules Tab not active

Hi Experts,
I have configured the scheduler as given in "http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/09/13/oracle-bi-ee-10133-configuring-delivers-ibots/".
I am able to start the services [Server , Presentation and also the Scheduler]...
But when i login to publisher i still see that the Schedules Tab is greyed out [ is inactive].
Is there any other settings that i should do to enable this.
Appreciate your immediate reponse

Veena

Hi Borkur,

May be i have missed out some step.

BI Publisher - Scheduler Tab Disabled

Hi all --
I am trying to schedule a report in BI publisher to see how it works. I have done the scheduler configuration using Oracle 10g's test schema "SH". When I click on the Test Connection option I get the message "Connection Established Successfully". Then I click on the Install Schema.
I have also added XMLP_SCHEDULER Role under Administrator.
I have re-started the BI Server and BI Publisher. But still the Schedule Tab is not showing up.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Kingsly

I have solved the Problem. I had to re-start the application server. However, I do have couple of other issues.
First, I do not the see the "Notification" heading where I can enter an email address.
Second, under the "Delivery" heading, I have a message No Server Available for Delivery"
Thanks
Kingsly

Looks like a security setup issue on the OBIEE side
OBIEE on Linux might help.

Business Intelligence Publisher scheduling issue

Hi ,
I need to schedule 74 reports at a particular time (pre determined) and export it in excel format to an FTP location.
I face a lot of issues while scheduling reports.
1. The environment is very very slow.
2. Scheduling each report itself takes huge time.
3. At certain point of time , when i try to schedule a report we get an error message
"Job scheduling failed because the user has no permission to access this report".
But when i try for the second time , i am able to schedule the report.
4. Even when i schedule a set of reports at a pre defined time , only few reports succeed(excel file present in FTP Location) while a majority of reports fail.
BIP does not provide us the option to see the error message for the failed reports.
I just want to know whether is it possible to schedule a set of reports as a whole in one shot in BIP?
If so please let me know . If not , please guide me to overcome this issue.
Regards,
sudhir

Have to see you r configuration and settings.
Which server re you using ?
OC4j ?
which os ?
scheduler is Oracle DB ?
you server is too busy to process the reports.,i guess, you have to scale the server well.

Publishing Scheduled End Date is 1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM

I have a requirement to move pages out of the pages library when the Scheduled End Date is met. My thought was to create a simple workflow using SharePoint Designer 2013 that will run on creation and pause until the Scheduled End Time and then copy the item
to another library and then delete item from the pages library. Sounds simple enough but no matter what date is entered in the Scheduled End Date column the value is always '1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM'. I know this because I log the date as the
first step in the workflow.
Now the strange part is the pause until 'Schedule End Date' does work when a date is entered but I'm not sure why because it displays 1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM) when I log it...
The other requirement is if a Scheduled End Date is not entered add 10 days and then archive the page. I'm not sure how I can do this if the Scheduled End Date is always '1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM' I can not test against an empty date since the value is always
'1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM'.
Why is the Scheduled End Date always display '1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM'? I created both a SharePoint 2010 and 2013 workflow both with the same result.
I have verified that this does not occur in our SharePoint 2010 environment. Is this a configuration issue with our SharePoint 2013 environment?

Hi Dan,
Thanks for the reply but unfortunately the Scheduled End Date is always 1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM regardless of the date entered. The first step I do in the workflow is log the Scheduled End Date.
The strange thing is it works if all the workflow does is a 'Pause Until' then copy and delete. But I need to check and see if the Schedule End Date is empty and add 10 days to the create date....

Publisher Scheduling

Hi,
Does anyone know how to schedule a report based on a triggering event rather than a time based event?

Hi,
I'm updating this in the hope someone has had experience of this using the standalone version. I've logged a service request with Oracle and theny start quoting the "concurrent manager" to me which is obviously not appropriate in my case.
