Publishing Web Templates on Portal

Hi Guys,
I have to schedule the precaculated web templates and publish them on the portal. So far so good. I am not able to figure out how will I dynamically set the vairbles in order to schedule the Templates daily. E.g. I need to have a Key date as sy-datum - 1 (yesterday). How will I be able to set it up?
Thanks in advance. Would sure award points for this.
Cheers
Kirk

Thank you for your reply. I had already thought over it before posting this on SDN. It will make entire report rigid will lose the flexibility of running it for Key Date user wants.
I NEED TO HAVE CAKE AND EAT IT TOO
Hope you getting my point.
Cheers

Web Templates in Portal

Chaps,
    We've got couple of Templates built for BW Reporting.
    Now, in the SAP Portal I noticed that the BW reports are shown in different customized web templates.
    My question is,
    (1) Can we have multiple Web Templates published in SAP Portal for different BEx reports ?
    (2) If there is a default setting for the Web Template that we do in RSCUSTV27 T-Code, how can we still have multiple Web Templates for BW Reports in Portal ?

Hi,
You can use different web templates for your BEx Reports depending on your requirement. You can include your reports in webtemplates and then integrate these web templates in portal by creating Iviews.
The setting you make in Transaction RSCUSTV27 is for setting the Standard web template. This will be used
when you execute a query in BEx Web Analyzer ( from Query designer).
when you integrate a query in portal by providing the query name (instead of providing the web template name)
By default the standard web template used is 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN. You can override this using transaction RSCUSTV27 or SAP Reference IMG under SAP Netweaver -> Business Intelligence -> Reporting-Relevant Settings -> BEx Web -> Set Standard Web Templates.

Publishing web reports in PortaL

How you will see web report to portals?How you will publish web report in portals?
Sridhar
Edited by: sridhar k on Oct 23, 2009 1:33 PM

Hi,
There should be some Portal team, or you might be having the rights to publish the webtemplates (Queries) to roles.
After this, there will be a role upload logging in to the portal in which you access web reports.
Once after your role upload process is successful, your reports will be successfully published to Portal and you could be able to run the reports from portal.
There should be some book mark (link) to the portal, which needs your username, pwd to login. If there is a portal team, which maintains the Portal, Please get in touch with them to get the Link of the Portal, and request them to assign you roles, so that you can publish the desired reports to role, Normally done from WAD, Opening the report to publish. There after do the role upload, by logging in to the desired portal with your Username and Password.
Thanks,
MD

Publishing web templates in static HTML

Hi,
When broadcasting web templates to HTML, must you publish them into the portal or can they simply reside on the BW server as static HTML pages and accessible via a URL?
I ask because I am implementing a dashboard and the web templates should be pre-calculated to be very quick performance-wise.
Second question, If I have two different web templates that I want to precalculate/publish twice (with different selections) how do you define the naming convenstion for the html file names? Eg.
WebTemplateName_Variable1_Variable2_Chart.html
WebTemplateName_Variable1_Variable2_Data.html
Kind thanks in advance.
faB

Hi Deepu,
Thanks for the reply. You'll get good points for the help.
I can get a web template to work with the data_mode=static url parameter set, but only when I call up the template alone, without any variable selections in the url. As soon as I set variables via url params, I get the error message: "requested document could not be found". The strange thing is that in the "document overview" of the reporting agent I can see the HTML file does exist for that selection criteria (and the query works in static_hybrid mode, which proves that the url parameter use the correct syntax)! Additionally, I can call up the correct html file directly via the url:
/sap/bw/doc/tmpl/FLDTMPL/LATEST/LATEST_SD011_COMPLAINT_PER_CUSTOMER/SD011_COMPLAINT_PER_CUSTOMER_00001.htm
but not with :
sap/bw/BEx?CMD=LDOC&TEMPLATE_ID=SD011_COMPLAINT_PER_CUSTOMER&VAR_NAME_1=ZSOLDTOP&var_operator_1=EQ&var_sign_1=I&var_value_low_ext_1=0000204874&data_mode=static
and not with:
/sap/bw/doc/tmpl/FLDTMPL/LATEST/LATEST_SD011_COMPLAINT_PER_CUSTOMER/GET?VAR_NAME_1=ZSOLDTOP&var_operator_1=EQ&var_sign_1=I&var_value_low_ext_1=0000204874
This is on BW3.5. Note 594340 describes the problem, but the fix is only valid for version 3.1.
Thanks for any further input you can give me.
Cheers,

Cannot Publish Web Template in SAP EP

I have created and save a web template using the Web Application Designer but cannot publish it in Enterprise Portal 6.0.
In an attempt to publish it, I see a pop up window ``wdttree``, a message ``Bad Index`` and an OK button. Clicking the OK shuts down the WAD.
I need some help.

Hi,
I am not too sure about the specific errors which you are getting, But then for WAD running and execution, we can check for the IGS Server connectivity.
It can be checked with Basis Folks. Cause we also had several problems related to WAD and eventually it all turned out to be a Problem with the connectivity to the IGS Server.
igs server is the graphics server which is maintained for all the graphics related to WAD.
Hope it helps,
Thanks,

Hi Hari,
You can develop web templates in the WAD:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/44/b26a3b74a4fc31e10000000a114084/content.htm
For this you will first need to have your queries/views ready from the Query Designer. Then you can design the layout in WAD using web items and assigning the queries as a data provider as reqd. You can save the web template and from the menu Publish > you can publish as an iView which can then be incorporated into the Portal.
Hope this helps...

Need help w/BW user authorization to see Web Templates thru portal

Hello,
We have designed Web Templates in BW which we intend to use through the SAP Portal. When these web templates are accessed via a URL which also passes a generic CPIC UserID/Password (created on the BW server), the template is fully functional and does not prompt the user for any further authentication. When we try to call up this same URL via the portal (including the CPIC User ID and password information), the report under /sap/bw/BEx comes up fine, but we are prompted for logins for nearly every object under the /MIME/ repository called by the Web Template. We have already set the /sap/bw/BEx/MIME service (ICF) to be an anonymous service (using the same UserID and Password that we are passing in the URL). So, to me it seems like additional role needs to be assigned to this user. Any ideas?
Here is the error message we get:
Logon failed
What has happened?
Call of URL http://xxxxxxxx:8002/sap/bw/Mime/BEx/JavaScript/epcfproxy.js terminated due to error in logon data.
Note
Logon performed in system T04 .
Logon performed for client 020, user , and language EN.
What can I do?
Check that you have entered the client, user, and password correctly.
If you do not yet have a user ID, contact your system administrator.
Error Code: ICF-LE-http-c:020-l:E-T:1-C:6-U:-P:-L:4

How to use stylesheet from web-template in portal

Hello all,
I want to integrate a web application consisting of several web-templates (BW 3.5) into a portal (EP 6.0) via iviews.
When called from the portal the web-templates stylesheets are replaced by portal stylesheets.
How do I force the portal to use the web-templates stylesheets.
Thanks in advance,
Denis

You can define the styles you want in a *.css file then put a link in your jsp to use these styles. You can also just put the styles directly in your jsp. Either should work
I have another post with some examples feel free to look there
Hope this helps

Publish web templates in business explorer

Hello Guys,
In standart business explorer role , we can run queries in BEX Web Analyzer in portal.But we can not see web templates in BEX Analyzer in business explorer role in portal.It is not possible to see web templates in business explorer role in portal?

Hi,
Web Templates have to been embedded into iViews.
iViews are the smallest possible unit of information in the Portal. You can arrange them in Pages, Worksets and Roles.
Thus, if you want them in the Portal, "wrap" them into an iView, then is it up to you whether you put them in the Business Explorer tab or elsewhere.
For information :
- Business Intelligence (1st level tab) is both a Role and a Workset. The fact that it appears on the first level is because it is set as an Entry point in the Workset.
- Business Explorer is a Workset (2nd level tab)
You have to be Content Admin. to create Portal Content in the Content Administration tab : the editor that is called is the Portal Content Editor.
Best regards,
Guillaume

Error when publishing web templates in the portal

hi Gurus,
I am getting this error when I try to publish my web report on the portal,
Field E_SX_META_DATA not a member of OUTPUT.
Can anyone please let me know how to go about fixing this error ?
Thanks in advance,
Nip

Hi,
You mean you want to execute the template even after this design time error. If yes then you can simply go to the backend and Transaction "SE38" then in the next screen type "RS_TEMPLATE_MAINTAIN_70" and then in the next screen type your template name ans then press "Execute" button to see temlate in Java Web.

Publishing WEBI report in Portal

Hi
I am trying to publish a WEBI report in our portal.
I initially tried using the BusinessObjects Enterprise Integration Kit - IView Template, but have since been told via my OSS call that is the incorrect template to use, as that is for Crystal Reports only. I am supposed to use the URL iview.
URL iView is reasonably easy to configure, so I enter the URL and parameter for reportID.
Problem is that the iview only displays a small window in the top left area of the iview, and inside that small window the WEBI report is then rendered, making it unusable. I can confirm that the correct report is being rendered, as my variable prompts are appearing.
The report works from InfoViewApp or CMC.
The URL uses the openDocument.jsp page -
http://<FQDN>:<PORT>/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp
If I look at the URL generated when viewing the report from InfoViewApp / CMC, then it uses something called viewDocument.jsp instead. If I change the url in the iview to
http://<FQDN>/AnalyticalReporting/viewers/cdz_adv/viewDocument.jsp
then it works, but only if I have signed into the BOE server somewhere else first.
I have continued my OSS call, to see if this can be used, but still waiting on their response.
I am new to the project, and apparently this functionality used to work, prior to upgrading to SP3 for BO XI 3.1
Anyone with any ideas on how to get this content displaying in the full size window?
Cheers,
Andrew
Edited by: Andrew Lewis on Jan 20, 2011 12:27 PM

Seems the issue has been resolved, and possibly a caching problem all along.
I had a number of suggestions from OSS, which didn't seem to work, but then I decided to add the iview to a page, and add that page to a role. When I did that, it worked, and when I then ran the initial iview on it's own, it worked as well.
So for now I ensure the iview is FULL PAGE, and in the InfoViewApp settings I make sure it opens in it's own window .. I now have a nice looking report opening in EP.
The Integration Kit template still doesn't work, but I am reasonably happy to use the URL iview for now, other than worrying about to transport these iviews from DEV to PROD, as the URL will change, but that will be a different topic.
Cheers,
Andrew

Bex iView does not show changes made in web templates

Hello,
I have a Bex iView that presents a web template which is exposed in two portals.
I made a certain change in the web template in portal A and I can see the change through the Bex iView in this portal.
I than transfered the change to portal B and I can see this change at the Web application designer's code when it is connected to portal B.
The problem is that I can't see the change through the Bex iView in portal B, it keeps presenting the old version of the web template. Also, if I preview it from WAD, which opens it in the portal, it shows the old version as well.
<b>I've already tried/verified the following:</b>
1. It's not a client related issue as it happens to all clients.
2. I have tried clearing both the client and the portal's pcd caches.
3. No cache whatsoever is configured in this iView's properties (Cache Level: None, Cache Validity Period: 0,0,0,-1, Allow Client-Side Caching: No).
4. When I run the iView in debug mode in the application integrator I can't see anything unusual I can think of. Also, I can see there that it points to the correct web template.
5. Retransported the web template from server A to server B.
What else can be done here? Any ideas...?

Hello,
did you resolve your problem ?

Retain variable values across web templates during a web session

Hi all,
How can we let web template get variable values from another template's variable values so as to keep the same entry values as previous report run?
For example 0vendor has a variable (for single, mandory) used in all vendor related web templates. "vendor1" was entered for the second template.
I tried to use "SET/GET PARAMETER" in variable user exit. It works in BI with RSRT, but it doesn't work with Bex or Web template. Looks like web session is not sync with the ABAP stack.
How about using cookie? How to create/reset cookie in variable user exit? Can we get variable values from web server memory or user session data?
Please share your thought !
Thanks for helping!
David

Hi Arun,
All the web templates are randomly run by user, there are no set of templates run after one template. Any templates can run after any other web template.
Basically we link web templates with portal menu items. any report can be run by any sequence. The thing the new report need to take the previous selection values from common variables.
