Regarding scheduling of BO reports.

Hello BO expets,
I am new to BOXI and have a very basic Q to ask.
We are currently using Infoburst for scheduling our BO reports.
which is not a BO product and is a third party tool.
What i want to know is does BO has it own built-in scheduler ?
and if it does, then what is the benefit of third party tools like Infoburst.
Thanx and regards
Priyanka

Hi

You can also refer to the Inforview User guide from [here|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir2/en/xir2_bip_user_en.pdf]

Schedule a Webi report

Hi All,
I am getting error "A database error occured. The database error text is: Failed to execute MDX query. Reason: Inconsistent input parameter (parameter: <unknown>, value <unknown>). (WIS 10901) " while scheduling a Webi report.
Could anyone help me regards the error?
Regards

This error message means the parameter assigned to the prompt of the report while scheduling, was not correct.
Please check the parameters in the prompt section while scheduling and assign proper values.

Getting error while schedule a webi report

Hi All,
I am getting error "A database error occured. The database error text is: The supplied XML is not valid. [Measures].[4KO5AOUTL3ZKE55WDDOMUB0AI]. (WIS 10901) " while scheduling a Webi report.
Could anyone help me regarding the error?
Regards

Hi Manoj,
Go to the controls tab in parameters in universe designer and there increase the "Limit size of result set to" and "limit execution time to".
Also in webi go to the edit query and increase the "maximum rows retrived" and "maximu retrievel time".
I think this should avoid partial results.
Thanks,

Schedule a Webi report from the CMC

Hi, ALL
Is there a way to schedule a Webi report from the CMC without using an email account in the
'from' box? There are other placeholders that can be used but I don't know how
to use them please advise.
Thanks.

Hermant,
You need to make sure you configure the proper email server. Go to the CMC - Server > AdaptiveJobServer>Destination>Email. You may need to enable Email as one of the Destinations.
You must configure all the HIGHLIGHTED options.

Ajay

Error when try to schedule a Webi Report

Good day every one:
Can anyone please help me to solve this problem??? the issue is this, I want to schedule a Webi report but when i clic on Schedule and go to Format and Destinations tab, i got this message:
displayErrorMessage="VIEWER:VIEWER_ERR_DEFAULT (Error: INF )"; traceErrorMessage="\u003Cinput type="hidden" name="BENCHERROR" value="Error Number : - Error Description : VIEWER:_VIEWER_ERR_DEFAULT"\u003E";
And i can not see the formats availables to schedule the report and of course i can not see the configuration and destinations options.
Looking for an answer i found this:
http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1537527
but that is an old post and i can not find the file mentioned there, can somebody please help me to fix this???
We are using:
BOBJ 3.1 SP3
Windows Server 2003
32 bits
Regards

I just found this
I was able to fix the issue by replacing the webiviewer.properties file with the file from the WARFILES\WEBAPPS directory. The webiviewer.properties file looks like it was corrupt as there was only 1 line in the file. After replacing and restarting the servers there's no longer an error when selecting Formats & Destinations.
I checked those webiviewer.properties and like you , one of them had only 1 line, about the language.
So I replace the one from Tomcat55\webapps\AnalyticalReporting\WEB-INF\classes with the one in the folder Tomcat55\webapps\AnalyticalReporting\classes
My guess is that this properties is corrupted because of the installation of other language. What should be done is updating the file with the new language parameters but what is done is a replace of the file.
I foun that in this link

Schedule a Webi report to multiple folders in BOXIR2 InfoView

Hi All Expert,
I might need your kind advice on what is the alternative way to do the below in BOXIR2 InfoView.
In my InfoView, i have several sub-folders under one folder. For eg, i have one "Sales" folder which contained multiple sub-folders as "SG", "CHI", "MYS", "JPN" and etc. I have one webi report created which have a country name prompt in the report and exported to each different sub-folders which the report prompt have been selected for each country name before export to the sub-folder. Eg, "SG" sub-folder have a webi report with "Singapore" as country name in the folder. All of the sub-folder's report are using the same webi report design.
My problem now is i need to open each of the webi report in the sub-folder to everytime when i need to perform a schedule or perform changes on the report design. If i have 12 sub-folders, i need to open 12 times to perform changes one by one or schedule the report to run one by one.
Are there any other alternative way to schedule one time then BO will copy the relavant report or instance to the multiple folder?
Appreciated your kind advice.
Regards,
Chee Koon

Hi
a publication object allows you to schedule X webi reports (which reside in several subfolders in your system) at once.
If you want to first to create/overwrite copies of your report in X subfolders and then schedule them all at once then you have to go with the SDK (even in BO XI 3.x)
You can find more information about the SDK here: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/sdklibrary

Customize Scheduled Payment Selection Report in R12

Hi,
How can I customizing the Scheduled Payment Selection Report in R12?
I need to declare new concurrent for this report that submit from a payment process.
Rivka

Hi Rivka,
See note 564350.1.
Basically don't create a new concurrent program. Instead:
1. Create a new RDF and change the executable on APINVSEL to your new executable
2. Create a new BI Publisher RTF Template and duplicate APINVSEL rtf, making sure the Data Template is same as source one.
3. In System Administration (note not System Administrator) go to Concurrent, Program, query APINVSEL, click OnSite settings and change to your custom template.

Schedule Send Execl Report by E-mail to System User

Hello:
I need to schedule send Excel Report by E-mail to system user internet address. If only define the job by Reprot Agent? Do we have other method?
Hope this clear!Can you give some advice?
Regards&Thanks
zagory

Hi zagory,
i forgot one tech issue to be setup: The internet Mail gateway needs to be setup if you want to send proper e-mails.
presupposed all tech. issues are solved, I agree with my colleague. Setup is fairly easy to handle, as soon as you know the customers demands like
- who is allowed to send
- who will do it in the future
- who are the recipients
- when should the precalc. take place/when should the Workbook be executed (Timepoints, after dataupdate ...)
for authorisations check out object: s_rs_bcs.
also make sure that the executor has permissions for the backgroud user (serach in TRC SU21, i can not remember.)
if all is known = approx. 2-3 days until go live, depending on the complexity of the existing scheduling and the authorisation concept.
Not to mention the training for all that and the tchnical setup.

Scheduled a webi report and set it send to EMAIL.

Our customer found when they scheduled a webi report and set it send to EMAIL, it will cost much more time than usual after they have their SIA restarts.
The first time it takes 4-5 times longer to receive a report in mailbox than next time onwards.
Please help.
Thanks Much,
Abhishek

Hi Abishek,
If the schedule is taking 4-5 times longer to schedule following the SIA restart I suppose it is possible that the Webi Job Server and Webi Processing Servers are not fully registered with the CMS - can you check that.
Also can you test by ensuring that if there are any Webi Job Servers\Webi Processing Servers in the environment which are stopped\disabled, can you retest after deleting those servers. There is a bug with XI3.1:
ADAPT01371367
Description:
Scheduled jobs often have a delay when the system is upgraded to BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP2 FP 2.2 or FP 2.3.This problem also happens when some of the servers required for scheduling are stopped and disabled. In this case, the Adaptive Job Server (AJS) tries to confirm if all available Webi Report Servers are running, and this causes the delay in running the scheduled jobs.
New Behavior:
This problem has been resolved.
Do you have a test system where you could install FP3.1 and check the fix?
The only "workaround" I could suggest would be to ensure that all services needed for the schedule are running\enabled (Adaptive Job Servers and Webi Processing Servers). This will stop the Adaptive Job Server from its continual querying for those servers. The adverse effect of this is that the more unnecessary services which are running will necessitate increased network communication.
To check if this is the actual issue you are hitting, you would need to trace the schedule and check for messages like this in the logs:
[2010-08-27 12:02:08,769] [TID:24] [ERROR] [webi.PublishingHelper.<init>():89]: unable to retrieve all mandatories servers to proceed this job
Alternatively, log a message with SAP Support for further investigation.

Reporting Agent will be only supported in the 3.X runtime in 2004s,start using Bex Broadcaster.Reporting agent is going to be obsolete or is would say.
All the new functionalities will be implemented in Broadcaster only.
Advantage -The old Reporting Agent in BW 3.x could pre-calculate the data of a template and access it through the URL . It could not broadcast queries, workbooks or web templates by email or to KM folders.

Multiple scheduling for same reports (with different prompt)

Hi,
I have to plan the scheduling of 10 reports (refresh and then .pdf generating). But i have to refresh these reports for 15 countries each time (prompt different between each instance).
So it will be 10*15=150 refresh done on the database !! Is it possible to make a 'massive' refresh (for all countries) and only filter by country when generated the input format (.pdf) ?
What is the best practice ?
Regards

Hi
then you should definitely take a look at the publications.

Hi,
I am a beginner in Oracle Business Intelligence. There is an issue with 'Past Due Schedule Value Aging' report
[this report displays order lines that are booked, but not yet fulfilled, and the date past the schedule ship date.].
Actually, the report is supposed to ignore the order lines that have been 'cancelled' (having a quantity of '0').
But, it is displaying the 'cancelled' lines as well.
I am supposed to analyze entire logic for 'Past Due Schedule Value Aging' report (Oracle Supply Chain - Release 12).
So, could anybody please provide the list of the steps to get the entire code? Also, please let me know if I am supposed
to install any specifc tool to look into the content of this report.
Thanks in advance.
