Removing Columns in Web Reports

Hello Experts,
I would like to remove a column in a We report. I would like to remove the first column in a web report it should be this way by default. Is there any way to do this. Please do help me out....

Hi Sweatha,
you can try the following step:
In the specific properties of your table web item you can set the "Data Display from Value Column" to 2. This should work. But if you use any graphics this will have no effect to your graphics. Otherwise i would recommend to create a view in the Bex Analyzer and hide the column in the view. Then you can assign the view to your data provider.

Different column detail webi report

Dear experts,
Is it possible to have a webi report with the following columns' layout:
Country | Average 2009 | Jan 2010 | Feb 2010 | .... | Dec 2010 | Average 2010
I've created a variable directly in the webi report but I'm not able to have detail by month in 2010 and a column with the 2010 total.
Any ideas?
thank you!
Best,
Inês Santos

Hey Inês,
Country | Avg 2009 | Jan10 | Avg 2010 | Feb 2010 | Avg 2010 | .... | Dec 2010 | Avg 2010.
You're correct foreach Month-Year it will append one column, yesterday I didn't find enough time to see this.
Solution:
1. just drag Cross-tab from templates.
2. In Column section(far left) Drop object.
3. In Rows Just right-click on it and Say Insert row above.
4. on Newly inserted row, Drag object
Note: object should contain only years only like 2009, 2010 etc...,
5. In below row , just drag object (which has Jan10,Feb10 etc...,)
6. Now Click on object and say Insert column right
Here, use formuls to calculate Avg(2009) == See my earlier post
7. Now on Object , the top one (row), apply Break.
8. It will append two columns for you. One is exact size with Column and one more with small size(white background). Here you can remove small one.
9. Now on newly added/appended column , write Avg(2010) formula.
10. On object (top one== row), go to properties == Make Text and Back ground color to White and Width and height to 0(Zero- it will take 4 pixels== which is default)
Now you can see exact report, what you are trying to achieve.
I tried and tested. Hope it should work for you.
Thank You!!

Hide/Unhide Columns in WEBI Report output

We have a WEBI report which has 2 columns/measures to display the cost in EUR and USD. User would like to have the flexibility to filter the column so as to display USD or EUR cost column. Is it possible to hide/unhide column in WEBI. Can we have a input control on multiple measures so that user can dynamically select which measures they want to see on report.
Its possible in BEx Analyser using filter option on key figure. Is simillar functionality available in WEBI? We're on BO 3.1 XI. Is thre any other way to achieve this?
Thanks,
Milind

hi,
i think it is not possible to hide a column based on condition. but in webi 4.0 u have an option using which, u can hide/ show a table based on the user selection. in ur scenario, create two tables, one with value in USD and other in EU, super impose the table. then right onthe table and select "Format cell". in that u ll have a option to hide the table based on condition. select that and apply the condition.
see the follwoing url for more info : http://bihappyblog.com/2011/11/05/dynamic-visibility-in-webi/
thank u,

ProcessdpCommandEx error when adding or removing object from WebI report (based on BEX query) query panel object list

Hi,
We have WebI reports build on BEX using BAPI connectivity. When we are trying to add a object in query panel in a existing report we are getting this ProcessdpCommandEx error. But error does not appear when we add at the end of the list of objects already added.
Can you calrify whether this could be some setting issue or it is a known bug?
Can you share SAP Note No in case it is a known bug?

Hi Avijit,
This error occurs in case of any failure in the connectivity. It is like the data providers are not getting processed.
You have mentioned that the issue does not come with newly created reports
Are you creating new reports on migrated universe or a newly created universe?
If issue only comes with migrated universe, please check if the connection has been migrated properly and required middleware and database connectors are in place.
If connections are in place, try importing and exporting the universe once and check.
In case, new report works fine with migrated universe, then you can simply try to re-point the universe by editing the query and can run it again and check.

Yuvraj

Activate the methods/class and add this in the Web Template!
for example:
<param name="MODIFY_CLASS" value="ZHCOLAPP">
ZHCOLAPP is the table interface class in this case.

Sorting a variance column in Webi report

I have the need to sort a report by a variance that I have calculated in the report.
For example, a report has inventory for end of prior month and current day. I am calculating the variance between the two columns. (how much inventory has changed by product)
I need to be able to sort this table descending so that I can see the big inventory movers first.
When I select the variance column, the sort options are disabled.
I have also tried to save my function as a variable and that does not seem to help.
I am using WEBI XI 3.1.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Rodney,
The "column" parameter is used as such: ;col which is added to the end of your formula like this:
([Stock Quantity] Where([Calendar Day]=Max([Calendar Day]) In Report) - [Stock Quantity] Where([Calendar Day]=Min([Calendar Day]) In Report);col )
When you add the ";col" portion it tells WebI to calculate by column (the alternative keyword to this parameter is "row").
You mention that you'll lose your calculated column, however, instead of building a formula with a cell, you can also construct a local variable to the report executing the same formula. This method is handy when you'll have the same computation to do in perhaps several tabs, and you just want to code once and reuse in multiple places within your report. So, if you can somehow work on establishing a local variable with the same formula, then demote the table to a horizontal or vertical table, put your objects in that grid configuration, apply sorts, then reposition as crosstab, you might be able to achieve your desired results.
Thanks,
John

Can you remove column headers from report downloads?

I'd like to remove the column header from the report downloads. For example, the report download file currently looks like:
EMPNO,ENAME
7839, KING
7698, BLAKE
Where as I'd like it to just be:
7839, KING
7698, BLAKE
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thank you,
Martin

There is a work around that I used before:
- Create a new page.
- create a report region and copy your origional report query in it
- in report attributes >> choose no header
- in report attributes >> choose "CVS report" as your new report tempate.
- go back to your origional report, create a button in that page ( call it EXPORT ) that submits as EXPORT
- create a conditional branch that goes to your new report page , make it conditional ( when EXPORT button is clicked)
This way, you will have a new EXPORT button on top ( or whereever you want ) of you report, when you click on it , it shows a download prompt for your export , the export won't have headers..

Hierarchy Analysis Authorization in BW and BOBJ Webi Report

Hello,
We have a scenario wherein we have implemented Analysis Authorizations (Hierarchy) on Organizational Unit info object (0ORGUNIT) and need to report on BOBJ WEBI. Our scenario is as following
ORGUNIT    - L0 (Overall Enterprise Level)
-     L1 (Enterprise - Continent Wise Split)
-     L2 (Enterprise u2013 Country Wise Split)
-     L3(Enterprise u2013 City Wise Split)
E.G-
      LO (Company ABC) MANAGER 0 will have access to the entire organization
           -L1 (ASIA) MANAGER1 will have access to ASIAN Subcontinent
                  -L2 (India) MANAGER 2 will have Access to country India
                            -L3 (New Delhi) MANAGER 2.1 will have access to city Delhi
                            -L3 (Mumbai) MANAGER 2.2 will have access to city Mumbai
                   -L2 (Malaysia) MANAGER 3 will have access to Country Malaysia
                              -L3 (Kuala Lampur)
                              -L3 (pahang)
             - L1 (Europe)
                                        u2026..
The requirement is that the CEO of the company should be able to see the entire set of data ( L0-L4).We have continent managers who can see that data specific to their continent, similarly at L3 Level the city manageru2019s should see the data only for their specific city.
In BI we have used analysis authorization based on hierarchies. We have created an authorization object say ZAUTH1 and have assigned the hierarchy L0 from RSECADMIN. Now, in Webi when we create a report a sample row comes as :
L0 Org Unit     L1 Org Unit     L2 Org Unit     L3 Org Unit     SALES Key Figure
Company ABC     Asia          India          Mumbai          1000
Now, we have MANAGER 2.2 who has only access to the data specific to his city (Mumbai). There is an Analysis Authorization object created for him ZAUTH2, by ONLY assigning the org unit hierarchy L3 (for Mumbai). When we run the bex report with the user MANAGER 2.2 u2013 it correctly displays the result and the user is only able to see the data for L3 Org Unit (Mumbai). However when you bring this data to Webi u2013 the report comes in the below format:
L0 Org Unit     L1 Org Unit     L2 Org Unit     L3 Org Unit     SALES Key Figure
Mumbai                                           1000
The L3 org unit has now got assigned to L0 Org unit , as this is the only org unit assigned to the MANAGER 2.2 user .
In such a case we are not able to write any generic formulae for the report. Is there a way to correct this issue? u2018Mumbaiu2019 should either get assigned to the L3 OrgUnit column is webi report , or is there a workaround that is possible ?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Vj

Hi Vijay,
The problem you speak of is known and comes from the fact that the hierachy is flattened in the process of delivering it to WebI. Therefore there is no real 'solution' to the problem, just some work-arounds you can think of...
1)
Create a report variable that starts looking at the lowest level, if it is empty check one up, and so on until you found what you were looking for (the lowest leaf available), which by definition must be there (even if it is top level).
Using similar logic you can also get a 'number of levels avaible' and so fill in the complete tree (duplicating the highest level).
This is difficult to explain when end users create their own reports, though you could provide a template report with these variables in there already.
2)
Extend the hierarchy with duplicates below the lowest level.
So i.e. L0 Company - L1 Continent - L2 Country - L3 City- L4 City - L5 City- L6 City.
This will give back on the four levels for top authorization
L0 Company - L1 Continent - L2 Country - L3 City
For authorization on Continent:
L0 Continent - L1 Country - L2 City- L3 City
For autorization City
L0 City- L1 City - L2 City- L3 City
So in all situations the fourth level, the L3 Object will hold the City level.
This you can then use in your report.
Hope this helps,
Marianne

Repalce comma with Space in Webi report.

Hi Experts,
My address Column in Webi report is showing data is like :
Address (this is the field coming for BW)
House No1,Flat J10,New Delhi,INDIA.
Can we replace Comma with the space so that the ablove data would be like :
House No1 Flat J10 New Delhi INDIA.
Thanks.

Hi Abdi
Use the formula

then you will get
House No1 Flat J10 New Delhi INDIA.
Use the object in place of Text
=Replace([Address];",";" ")

Drill function implemented on Measure object column in the webi report

Post Author: madan kumar
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Hi,
I have a small issue in my project.(Maintenance Project)I created a measure object in the fact table of the existing universe and saved and exported to the repository. (Say Measure object is D where D = A-(B+C))I inserted the same object as a column between two measure objects columns of a existing WebI report.
The report has two hierarchies involved - each hierarchy has dimension objects involved.I have checked with the hierarchies to make sure that measure object is not involved.The scope of analysis is None for the query.Version is BO XI R2.
The issue is the Drill function is implemented on that particular new column.The drill function should be applicable only to the two dimension objects involved in the report.But this measure object column is also getting drilled once the Drill option is selected.I had to remove the drill optiion from the Measure object column.
Can anyone help me on this issue...
Thanks in advance...

Sushil
Thanks for your reply. I did the date diff on the columns. It does not break into 3 different groups. I am using a function called previous on the date column. So the report is like this
    DATE                           Pervious (DATE)                 Date - Pervious(DATE)
01-01-2008 01:06              Null
01-01-2008 01:12              01-01-2008 01:06               :06
01-01-2008 01:18              01-01-2008 01:12               :06
01-01-2008 01:24              01-01-2008 01:18               :06
01-01-2008 01:30             01-01-2008 01:24              :06
01-01-2008 01:36             01-01-2008 01:30               :06
Basically we are breaking on the Date - Previous ( Date) column which does not work. I am not sure if there is a way to break this. I even tried it in Crystal REports XI and it does not work their either. Any help with this issue with be greatly appriciated.

Removing Scroll Bars in WEBI Report

Hi All,
I want to remove scroll bars from my WEBI reports. I have observed that even if you have only one column in the WEBI report, scroll bar still appears. Is this anything to do with page layout properties of WEBI where you can set minimum limit for horizontal records per page as 20? Can anybody please help me with this?
Thanks,
Shweta.

Hi,
We also wanted to have the same thing,we tried to reduce the size of the report and tried to change the page size.
We did everything to remove that scroll bar and did not achieve it, hence we loged a case with SAP BO and they said " this is how the tool is".
But they took it as the enhancement request dont know what is the status on that.
Cheers,
