Qaaws - Query as a Web Service configuration in BO XI R 3.1 in SSL set up

Description of Problem or Question:
-- Need help in adding/managing hosts in the QAAWS component (Desktop toolset) to add/define new host. The server has a physical name like (for e.g.) ABCD1234
While trying to add a host in QAAWS designer the URL is getting invalidated as it checked http:
[server_name]:8080\dsws...
not sure about the port # in our install, the CMS port is 6405 is that the one we shud give?
The secure sockets layer protocol is enabled i.e. HTTPS for InfoView, i guess it does that matter for QAAWS?

Hi Graeme,
Could you please check whether from CMC the web intelligence report server is enabled or not?

  • How can I test my Query As A Web Service?

    Hi,guru:
        I have created my Web Service based on universe which based on SAP BW query using Query As A Web Service Designer, but when I use it in Dashboard on BOBJ platform by passing a parameter to the Web Service, it seems no response from the Server,I made 2 test steps:
        1.Pass a value to the input parameter,I checked by ST01 in BW Server and see no records of the action, and no result return.
        2.Pass a blank to the input parameter,I checked by ST01 in BW Server and got many records,and all data be retrived.
        It seems that when I passed the parameter,the Web Service seems no response and didn't run at all. Is there anybody who can tell me how can I test the Web Service,I want to test it and input my parameter.
        Thanks very much for your quick response.

  • MDX Driver WIS 10901 Error in Query as a Web service Tool

    Hello,
    I'm trying to design the query as a web service to use for Xcelsius Dashboard (created connection, universe etc in Designer), but can't proceed with query definition - it's only possible to put one characteristic otherwise error WIS 10901 is triggered. Everything works fine with data based on cubes and some other queries.
    Couldn't get help anywhere:
    Here is the same error described in detail - people from SAP solved it, but the solution wasn't described->

    Hi Mark,
    Sorry for late,
    Actually the problem is in QAAWS. I can see the Universe created in QAAWS but when try to see the output bydropping the fields into the output box in QAAWS then I am getting the data base error WIS : 10901
    Actually I want to know how to design the output of the query(Universe) called in QAAWS.

  • Query as a web service question

    I have a QAAWS problem. BO XI 3.1, Xcelsius 2008 version 5.2.1.0
    I need to send 5 product names (user can select 1 to 5 products from a list) and display corresponding market share values I obtain from QAAWS.
    Created a query with Product names as prompt, returning market share. In prompt options, I selected
    "Prompt with list of values" and "Optional Prompt".
    in Xcelsius, when I created the connection, I select 5 columns as input from prompt (my product names). I selected the column from Input values, "Read From" and gave 5 columns in sequence.
    the problem:
    However, when I execute the query, I get only the market share of the first product returned.
    I know that QAAWS can take multiple prompt  from different columns. Is this because of Universe settings? or my option settings are in correct?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Hi,
    I had the exact same issue.
    What you have to do is the following:
    In the Input Value section you have to select your Prompt from your query as a web service, then click the + sign - this will add multiple rows for your prompt - each of these row can then be pointed to each of your 5 colums/filter values individually. This will work.
    I asked almost the same question her:

  • Query as a web service Sorting issue

    Hi All,
    We have designed an existing BI query as a web service but it seems to be ignoring the Sort order of different characteristics used (as defined in Bex Query Designer).
    Using the Context menu in QAAS and defining/managing the Sort is not working.
    Has anyone experienced such an issue and how to handle this?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Bansi

    Hi All,
    You can try this solution. It has something to do with the universe parameter, END_SQL.
    I implemented this as a work around and it solved our problem about the sorting issue with QAAWS.
    Here are the steps:
    1: Open the universe
    2. Ope File,  then Universe Parameter
    3. Click the parameter tab
    4. Scroll down until you see the 'END_SQL' entry. This entry is blank by default.
    5. Select END_SQL
    6. On the VALUE box, type: ORDER BY 1
    7. This will enable the REPLACE button. Click REPLACE
    8. Save the universe
    9 Test a query using 2 columns and view the SQL.
    You should see now the ORDER BY 1 inferred in the SQL statement.
    Voila!!!!
    Of course you can always add ORDER By 1,2,3 later if there's a need.
    Enjoy.....

  • Query as a Web Service can't see .unx universes to use as data source?

    Hi,
    I created a Universe using Information Designer. The Universe is published on the server as *.unx.
    With Query as a Web Service Designer, I connect to the server to create a query. However, in "Choose a universe as a data source for the query", I do not see the *.unx Universes, I only see *.unv Universes.
    Both software are the latest version (XI 4.0).
    Anyone know what is the issue here?
    Thanks,

    Hi there,
    So in QaaWS tool, therefore, only UNV files are seen?
    Regarding going through WebI Rich client > Web Services, how do I generate a URL?
    In WebI Rich client this is already sourcing the Web Service (provided i already have a URL)...
    I am confused with this.
    Can someone please reply?

  • Query as a Web Service and In List

    Hi,
    Here is my scenario (Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise SP2):
    - List builder object which returns multiple values
    I want to use those values to filter a Query as a Web Service data connection (to BW based universe). How is that possible?
    My web service contains a Filter defined as <Dimension> In List <Prompt>
    I have tried the following:
    1) Selected multiple rows in the Input Values/Read From section of the connection
    2) Tried to concatenate the individual values using ; and , and then passing the concatenated values to the Read From section of the connection (as one cell)
    1) works fine as long as I just select one value, but when I select multiple values, only the first one is used to filter the QaaWS
    2) Does not work
    Any ideas/suggestion on how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jacob

    Hello David,
    I tried this feature of BI Services through WebI Rich Client. But I am having problem with sending values for Prompts using Xceslius. Below is the procedure I followed in developing a report and using BI web service to connect to Xcelsius.
    1) Build a report in Web Intelligence rich client along with Query filters (Inlist, Optional Prompts).
    2) Activate BI Service and publish the block after exporting the file.
    3) Use the WSDL URL to connect to Xcelsius from Data Connection (Add as Query As Web Service and Import it).
    4) Method: Get_ReportBlock_<Block name>,
        set input values <Enter_value_s_for_prompt>
            i) Valueofprompt (bind to single values, hard coded)
           ii) Index (leave blank, not binded)
    5) set <refresh> as 1 (or true) and <getfromlatestdocumentinstance> as 0 (false)
    6) Bind the output values to excel and pull a scorecard component to view the data.
    7) Preview the dashboard and now I get this error
                    Cannot Access external Data: String index out of range: -1
    When I remove both the values inserted in step 5, I get complete data (prompt is not applied). I also have a doubt whether I can pass multiple values for the prompt without using + sign to duplicate the Prompt.
    From some of the previous posts I came to know about Value formatting compatibility issue between BI Services and Xcelsius. Which is addressed with two fix packs
    1) XI 3.1 SP2.5 (available since last March) for WebIntelligence Rich Client & BI Services, and
    2) Xcelsius 2008 SP3.1 (available since last April).
    Are these the up to date Fix packs available and will they solve my problem?
    Where can I download them from (SAP Market place)? or from our SAP service consultant?

  • Service Registry in Web Service Configuration

    Hi
    I have a unique problem
    I am using NWDS

    Build id: 200911281443
    In NWDS when I go to Windows --> Preferences --> Destination Configuration --> Web Service Configuration --> and say CREATE in the Destination Type I can not see the option of Service Registry I can only see the option of WSDL and WSIL
    and in the following doc
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e058a805-68b2-2b10-6a8b-fc570f1c37d1?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
    How to Browse an Enterprise Services Registry in Visual Composer.pdf
    Page 13 they have shown a screenshot where it shows the Destination Type as Service Registry
    Can anyone tell me please how can I get the option of having Service Registry in Web Service Configuration
    I have also installed CE 7.1 EHP1 preview provided by SDN
    I know its a unique problem but if someone can throw light on this it will be very helpful to all those who want to work on Enterprise Service Repository

    Hi John,
    I think the screenshot is wrong.
    You can use WSIL to configure the backend system.

  • % Wildcard selection - extract data via Query as a Web Service

    Hello all,
    I am using Query as a Web Service to extract data through to my Xcelsius document. I have a series of charts that display summed data according to user selections within some combo boxes.
    Is there any way to send through a wildcard selection, i.e. pass a " like '%' " query string somehow through to the database?
    With the query that I have created:
    I have a measure value returned
    I have 4 filter objects
    I have selected the "Prompt" option for each
    Within the Data Manager, the prompt fields are assigned to cells which reference the combo box selections
    When I build the query, the selections available are many (equal to, not equal to, greater than, greater than or equal to, etc), but there is no 'like' comparison.
    Alternatively, is there a way that I can pass the selected parameter values, including " like '%' " if no value is selected within a dropdown, to the original measure calculations within the universe?
    I hope this makes sense, let me know if I need to clarify anything. Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Marco

    Very easy solution - select 'matches pattern' within the filter objects selection when building the query.
    Don't know why I didn't try this earlier.

  • Multiple List Builder and Query As A Web Service Problems

    Hi All,
    I quickly became aware that trying to pass multiple parameters to "Query As A Web Service" from a "List Builder" object in Xcelsius was not a simple task to acheive after reading this post here :-
    Query as a Web Service and In List
    I followed the advice that David Brunner suggested towards the end of the thread about creating a "BI Service" by publishing a block from a Webi Rich Client report.
    I then referenced the newly created "BI Service" by using it's WDSL URL through the Xcelsius Data Manager - Query As A Web Service connection.
    Everything appeared to work fine (e.g. Did my selections from the last builder and got refreshed/changed figures in my Spreadsheet Table object in the Dashboard) until I realised figures in my dashboard were not reconcilling and appeared much lower than expected.
    After monitoring what was happening traffic wise with "Fiddler 2" I discovered that Xcelsius was only passing the first entry in each of the selected values for the list builder even though a range of cells (e.g Month_Year!$a$2:$a$13) was specified to be passed as an input parameter to the BI Service (confirmed through viewing the Input/Output XML being sent).
    I even tried specifying the multiple values in the different suggested ways that David Brunner advised such as a semi colon delimited list (e.g. Miami;Boston;Chicago) but this didn't appear to be working either.
    Can anyone suggest what I may be doing wrong here? Why is only the first value being passed?
    I am using Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP3.
    Many Thanks,
    Gary

  • Publish query as a web service

    Hi,
    Actually my requirement is that I need a url to import in the datamanager, so that i can import my bi query in the xcelsius.
    I hav got all the BO enterprise tools available witjh BO XI 3.1 & SAP integration kit installed.
    For this in the universe designer i have & created a universe/ Connection & my BI query is visible in the universe pane. Can anybody guide me how to publish or get the url? or from here how do I proceed to get my BI query in xcelsius?
    Thanks in advance,Shreesh

    Hi,
    to generate the URL, you need a web service that can be created with "query as a web service".
    If you already have the universe built, then you will find a very good & detailed guidance here:

  • Excel Function to query BW using Web Services API

    Hello,
    I need to write an Excel function as an .XLA that will do the following:
    It will be invoked like any other Excel function. E.g. =GetCost(param p1, param p2)
    This function queries an InfoCube and must return a single numerical value for the Cell in Excel that the function is used in.
    I have never done anything like this before. I have done a decent amount of reading to discover the best way to attack this. It seems like the best way to create this functionality is to:
    1. create a web service in a BW function group with a function module that is RFC enabled.
    2. I'm thinking the function module will use native SQL to query the InfoCube and pull the value and then somehow pass this value to a web service.
    3. The value in the web service will be accessed through it's API in Excel/VBA.
    I am not sure if this is best way to do this, or if it is even possible to do it this way. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if I am heading down the right path and possibly direct me to a tutorial or other information that would aid in accomplishing this. I have yet to find some type of proof of concept from beginning to end on how to do something like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    These are the documents I have found insightful so far:
    How to build an XLA: http://www.fontstuff.com/vba/vbatut03.htm

  • IDoc - XI - Web Service configuration

    Hallo
    This is the problem we are facing :
    We get an IDoc as Inbound, do some mapping and then send it to a WebService. The problem is that when we do so, we get a series of errors. Apparently the problem is that when the web service receives our messages it replies with a (simple) message as well. The point is that as far as I know IDocs cannot be configured for synchronous mode, (and when we tried it we failed) so we have nothing to do with the incoming message.
    these are the messages from the Integration Monitoring/Message Monitoring
    Error Category OUTBINDING
    Error Code CO_TXT_ROUTING_BACK_ERROR
    We don't have access to the Receiver System and the WSDL file is sent by them

    Actually, I don't know. I will look arround it and try your previous suggestions too.
    Just a not-so-XI question.
    I tried to test the Web-Service using XML-SPY and the WSDL that they have provided for us. When I do so, i get an error 504, "HTTP error:could not POST file 'soap/CreateOrder' on server 'xx.xx.xx.xx' , where http://xx.xx.xx.xx:80/soap/CreateOrder is the URL that we are using during the configuration of XI. Would this imply that the error is that we just have wrong URL (but how since it is retrieve from the WSDL itself?).
