Query designer report and Web Templates

Dear All,
I have a very basic/stup doubt.
Are reports made through Bex Query Designer and Web Templates the same?
Actually there is a following requirement:-
"Navigate from a BW Web template to a PCUI application". I have a document related to it but it gives me step on how can i modify my web templates to achieve this functionality. But all my reports are made through query designer and it available to user through Web Dynpro portal.
So i just wanted to know is Web Template and Reports made through query designer the same? So that i can implement the changes in my report.
Thanks.

Hi Anup,
by using web templates we can use N number of data providers (Queries) for a single analysis view with various available options. - N number of Queries can be assigned to Web template to create a web report
but by using the Query designer ,you can create a single report which may not provide sufficient information to the client and the number of features are less compared to web template.
as you mentioned that you are using the web dynpro.
i think the web dynpro requires the web reports as an iview and ths iview can be created by using the Query designer and or web app designer.
so the most clear view can be given to client using the WAD reports

  • Error publishing Query designer report to Web

    Hi all,
    I am facing error after executing the query in query designer in BI 7. The query fails to open in web and points to standard url:
    http://portal-dmb.wdf.sap.corp:50100/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?QUERY=EX4_TBW20&VARIABLE_SCREEN=X&DUMMY=7
    "Link appears broken"
    Initially I have configured the web connectivity using the How to guide and carried out config in SMICM as well as SICF (activating BW node). If I enter the url from SMICM manually in IE, it would prompt for user/password for BI server and successfully logs on.
    The issue only lies when publishing query from Query designer to web. Please advise if I have missed out some config here.
    Thanks.

  • Filters Query and Web Template

    Dear All,
    Many reports use filters in both the query and the web template. What
    is the difference?
    Regards,
    KS

    the filter used in query and web templates are same
    there is no difference between filters used.
    as webtemplate uses the same query as its data provider so it is going to run the same filters.
    for e.g. if u have query x then if there are filters in it .
    if u have webtemplate y , and u have to assign a data provider to webtemplate which is nothing but query itself....
    so if u run webtemplate u will at the end execute query x only...
    now wat is filter.
    filter means it will filter out that data.
    for e.g. if u created a variable for calendar month and u restrict it so that user can enter the calendar month value range when they execute query x....
    then if u execute query x
    then upon its execution the variable will pop u p and it will ask u to enter range of calendar months
    lets say u enter 1/2007-12/2007
    so u r query executes and it will only bring data for year 2007.
    now if u wish to see the data of 2006 and try to restrict it in Context menu or Restric screen, then it will display as NO DATA.
    this means it will filter the data for particular year.
    so if u wish to see the data for all years
    then dont create variable and dont restrict Calendar month
    Instead bring calendar month in Free characteristics
    so later u can run the query for different years.
    i hope u understand

  • Query related to BEx query and web template migration

    Hi,
    We are upgrading our BW system from BW 3.5 to 7.3 and also planning to migrate the existing BEx 3.X queries and web templates to BEx 7.x version.
    We have BEx queries and web templates published on enterprise portal in roles.
    My query is that after we migrate BEx 3.5 queries and web templates to new version, do we need to re-publish these (migrated) queries and web templates on the portal or users will be able to access the reports without any issues.
    or are there any post migration steps that we need to follow so that reports (with migrated version) are available to the end users through portal as before.
    Thanks,
    Tarun.

  • Variance Scaling in Query and Web Template Showing Different Results

    Hi experts,
    I have the following problem - variance scaling in my query and web template are showing different results.
    My variance in column is set as follows:
    Formula: NODIM(A % B)
    Scaling Factor: 1
    I have a structure in row that uses Scaling Factor of 1,000.
    Let say the value of Column A is 120 and Column B is 100.
    When I execute the query, it will show 0.02
    However, when I execute the web template it will show the correct scaling i.e. 20.
    May I know what can I do to correct above scaling error?
    Thank you!

    You can not remove the scalling factor, but once you check the checkbox below the dropdown menu, the scalling factor will go away.
    I checked at my end and when I set the scalling fact as 1, I was getting 9.9% while I was expecting 9900%. When I removed the scalling factor I started getting 9900%.
    I would let you know if I came across anything else.
    What about the unit of Column A and B. Are they same or different?

  • Authorization to query and web template in BI 3.5

    Hello
    I need to grant users athorizatio to the WEB template and its query. Query is based on Multiprovider.
    Should I save query and WEB template to existing role and grant authorizaion to tis role or I also need to grant authorization to multicube and all cubes underneath?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You need to assign two objects for authorizing web templates and query..
    S_RS_COMP AND S_RS_COMP1... in both these object you need to assign appropriate roles and activities.
    S_RS_MPRO object to assign authorization to MP.

  • Query or Workbook or Web Template-Process chain

    Hai Friends,
                   I want to broadcast reports.Which type of the report is more attractive among Query or Workbook or Web Template?Suppose if we select Workbook as type,will it support for process chain which will create to automate the broadcasting process?On every data change will the workbook automatically changes it's data.Usually we will do layout settings ONLY for workbook.Will all the settings remain same when the new data is changed every month?
    Please, reply me with ur valuable answers
    Thanks
    Mohan Chand Reddy A

    Hi Mohan,
    You can use either of them for broadcasting, just check the requirement with your business. And using process chain you will raise an Data change event and in your broadcast setting you will have to mark the option i.e. Broadcast on data change.
    So whichever queries or workbooks have that setting on the particular Infoprovider. And once you raise the data change event for that Infoprovider through process chain, all the reports will be broadcasted.

    Durgesh.

  • Document integration for Bex reports and web reports

    Hi,
    I would like to attach few documentaion (like business usage of the report) for all existing reports in BW system. We are delivering all reports through Bex reports and Web reports.
    Report user should be able to see attached documentation through "Document" property in Web report.
    I have followed this way but not able to get on-line documentation for queries.
    1. RSA1--> Documents >Meta Data> selected Object type ELEM> Import document> attached word document.
    2. I enabled Documents property in Query designer.
    3. When I executed this query in Bex, I could see document symbol for all characteristics & Key figures in all cell (in default view)
    4. The same result with Web report (all cells are having document symbol).
    But I dont want to display documents in defaul view, if any user wanted to have doucment info, then should click on "document" tab and should be able to down load / read on line.
    Let me know why I am getting document symbol for all key / char, even though i selected "ELEM". I know we could direclty import documents in query designer, what is the difference..
    Rgds..

    Hi,
    Anybody could provide step to step procedure for doucument integration for Bex reports.

  • URGENT!!  Reporting Agent Web Template not filtering data on dataproviders

    I am having problems with Reporting Agent web template settings. I have a query that uses a pre-query for MANAGER. I also have a query view for this query (I also tried using just the query in the web template). I created a reporting agent setting on the web template and used the pre-query as the control query. I have 80 MANAGER's, so I expect 80 dataproviders with each dataprovider having the data for 1 MANAGER. I get the 80 dataproviders, but each dataprovider has data for all 80 MANAGERs.
    The dataproviders are then emailed using an ABAP program.
    I would use Information Broadcaster, but the managers are not necessarily BW users and the manager list is fluent, so I don't want to create a separate setting for each manager.
    We are on BW 3.5 SP18.
    Many thanks!

  • Running query in default WAD web template

    Hello Experts,
    Can you please guide me about how i can run a query in a default web template created in BEX Web Application Designer?

    Welcome to SDN.
    Kindly use BEX forum for BEX/WAD related queries.
    (SAP Business Explorer (SAP BEx)).
    coming to your question.
    you can set the webtemplate created by you as the default webtemplate from transaction RSCUSTV21.
    once its set, if you open query on the web (from query desinger,etc) it will utilize the default template you have set.

  • BEx Web Template (BTMP) and Web Template (TMPL)

    Hi,
    I found in BI7 Objects, there are BEx Web Template (BTMP) and Web Template (TMPL). what's the different between them? For the BEx Web Template (BTMP), i can find in Web Application designer.
    But for Web Template (TMPL), I cannot find them in Web Application designer. How can I edit them?
    for example, there is a standard Web Template (TMPL)  0tpli_0tct_mc01_q0111, where can I change it?
    Many Thanks
    Jonathan

    hello,
    TMPL is for 3.5 template and BTMP is for BI 7.0 templates. For opening 7.0 template you need to use BI 7.0 WAD not 3.5 WAD.
    you can open the standard template 0tpli_0tct_mc01_q0111 in WAD and then do save as to save it custom template.
    Then you can edit the custom template and make the changes.
    Make sure that the std. template is installed correctly.
