Report Catalogue or Report Index Template

Hi can anyone throw soem light on report catalogue or report index template which provides visibility to end users using the SAP BW .

Thanks for the reply.
Well when i'm opening the report , i wait for about 15 seconds then 'Page Cannot be Displayed' appears on my browser. I'm having this case only when i'm expecting huge data. By huge data i mean that the report gets informations about a deal, when the deal has 10 categories the report runs fine, but when i add all catgories, about 1000, it gives me the 'Page cannot be displayed' error. I'm guessing its a time out issue since i've set the scalable_mode parameter to on. Any thoughts ???

In popup step how do I get the "text on the button" in the report rather than button index?

How do I configure the POPUP step in "SEQ MAIN.seq" to execute the second
step (IS OUT PUT IS 20?) in "SEQ 1.seq" when "IS OUT PUT IS 20?" button
hit and execute the third step (IS OUT PUT IS 30?) in "SEQ 1.seq" when "IS
OUT PUT IS 30?" button hit.

The handle to the Step.Button1Label gets you the data, but there are several ways to get it into the actual report.
The easiest is to use the reporttext.
In a post expression, you can use something like
Step.Result.ReportText = Evaluate("Step.Button" + Str(Step.Result.ButtonHit) +"Label")
and then the default report generation will include it in the report. Otherwise, you need to get the text into the Resultlist by various means (check the user manual, or the TestStand II customisation course) and handle the report generation yourself inside of the appropriate sequence in the process model.

How can I modify column width in a spreadsheet report without using an Excel template

I currently use the LabVIEW Report Generation toolkit in LabVIEW 2011SP1 to create simple spreadsheet reports that I can build/print without having Microsoft Office products installed. I really like being able to do this, and it allows me to generate nice on-demand data reports - I'm also not tied to having Office installed on the system I'm using, so this works on just about any test fixture I can install the software on.
I recently have a requirement that I must have variable-length columns in my report. I currently use the VI "Append Text Table to Report" in order to create a text table, but the column width requirement is that all columns must be equal width UNLESS I use an Excel Template file to define my column widths.
My questions are:
Is it possible to create a text table and define per-column widths without using an Excel Template? If so, how? My report mainly has a lot of small numerical values for the columns, but some columns contain system names or status messages - I really hate the longer text blocks wrapping and taking up so much real-estate when if I could control the column widths I can get all my data on a single line.
I'll admit I haven't tried this myself yet, but if I use an Excel Template will that require me to have Excel installed on the PC in order to print/generate reports?
Is there a recommended way (with an example) of generating a text table in a report with or without using the "Append Text Table to Report" VI that allows me to have custom column widths that doesn't require me to manually build a custom print page? If I do have to create a custom print page, what would be the most straightforward approach?
Thanks!

Sure, I'll provide a pared down example that demonstrates my use-case:
I have a control to the VI that takes in a 2D array of strings representing the data I want printed in a table. I am generating a standard report, adding a table to the report, and printing it. The first VI is "New Report.vi", the second VI is "Append Table to Report.vi", and the third is "Print Report.vi", all found standard in the Report Generation palette.
Note that the "Append Table to Report.vi" has an input parameter "Column Width" with a default value of (1). This input parameter is a single input parameter, which defines the column widths of ALL the columns in my table - hence, with the VI the way it is, all my columns will be 1 inch wide.
I find myself needing to be able to define per-column widths, not just a single global column width parameter.
The only way I have found to do this is by using an Excel template file. The "New Report.vi" takes in a "template" parameter, and if used, the report generation toolkit can be set to ignore the "Column Width" input parameter on the "Append Table to Report.vi" by setting the width value to -1. Instead it will launch Excel, open the template file provided, build the table using the template, will close Excel, and will attach the generated table to the report. However, I have a strict requirement that Microsoft Office NOT be required to be installed on the computer.
So, without using Excel, is there a way to generate a table in a report and define the width of each column individually?

Translating a report which is using excel template

Hello,
We are working on a BI report using excel template. I've checked the report designer's user guide and it says template translation is a feature only supporting RTF and BI publisher layout template.
I am wondering what is the best practice for translating a report which is using excel template.
So far I have a alternative which is making all labels in my template dynamically getting values from HCM lookups , but this solution is time consuming.
Could anybody help here?
Regards
Buyun

Did you try reading sap help files which clearly explains about Managing templates, selecting templates, creating templates, deleting templates.

Report Trigger Code in Data Template

Hello all,
I've inserted a report trigger into a data template and created the required function in my database. Everything works as expected.
My question is, is there any way to write the report trigger within the data template? Given the choice, I'd rather have the trigger code embedded within the data template itself rather than existing in a separate package.
I've found no examples of this, but I just wanted to confirm that it can't be done.
Thanks.
Edited by: jasonr on May 17, 2011 7:39 AM

No,
The code to be executed by trigger will be a PL/SQL package, and it will reside in DB only.

Clear user context after closing reporting catalogue

We use BW web reporting in a BW reporting catalogue.
Whe users run a web report and close it they are still logged in the system.The users will be kep in the system until after the plugin_auto_logout parameter expires. Why does SAP keep the user logged on while he has no web report open?

How do you change categories in both transactions and budget report in the personal budget template in Numbers?

How do you change categories in both transactions and budget report in the personal budget template in Numbers?
I am working on both an iPad mini and a MacBook Air.
Whenever I change the category name in the budget report, it does not actually show up in the transactions tab when I am using the Personal Budget Template.
I have already tried copying and pasting a category in the budget report to add another row but it still does not show up in the transactions tab.

Hi,
Before this you have to prepare your internal table with tab delimeter structure with data.
data: wa_appl_title like line of appl_title.
       concatenate fhdr '/file_details_'
                    sy-datum '_' sy-uzeit '.txt' into fhdr.
*MOD01 - start.
       open dataset fhdr for output in text mode." ENCODING DEFAULT.
        open dataset fhdr for output in text mode ENCODING DEFAULT.
*MOD01 - end.
        if sy-subrc = 0.
          clear wa_appl_title.
          read table appl_title into wa_appl_title index 1.
          if sy-subrc = 0.
            transfer wa_appl_title to fhdr.
          endif.
          loop at appl_it.
            transfer appl_it to fhdr.
          endloop.
          close dataset fhdr.
          write: / text-t05.
        else.
          write: / text-t04.
        endif.

Oracle bi publisher report for apex - Report Layout

Hi There,
Navigation: Home>Application Builder>Application 20>Shared Components>Report Layouts
I created rtf template for a Report Query. It worked fine upto certain point.
However at some point, if I make a minor modification to the layout it is not displaying all the data that it is supposed to.
I have 3 tables in my RTF template 1) Header 2) Details 3) Summary. Details section has a group. This runs fine.
Now if I just combine all the above 3 tables into one by adding row above and row below to the "2) details" table and moving the table 1 and table 3 into those rows, makes the data in the group in table 2 disappear when run on the apex application.
However it works fine when data is loaded on the RTF template and Preview --> PDF is seen.
Is it a known bug? Because some of my coleagues has same issues.
Thanks
Krishna

Are those fields in the corresponding report query? change to the design of the document? did you delete the old template and re-upload after making the changes?
Moreover the preview on the RTF template works fine with the same data.Preview from where?

Oracle Reports Server CGI - Report Job was cancelled upon user request.

I am running reports on the web through Forms using Run_Report_Object built in. I am using Oracle 9iAS Enterprise Edition Release 1(1.2.2.2.2), Forms 6i Patch 9 (6.0.8.18.3) and Reports 6i Patch 9 (6.0.8.18) using CGI implementation. Most reports are running fine, but I have one that produces 125 pages and we are getting the following messages in the browser:
Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot be served at this time.
Oracle Reports Server CGI - Report Job was cancelled upon user request.
However if you look at the Reports Server Queue Status thru the browser it shows that the report did finish, but it took 16 minutes. But the user gets the above message in their browser window.
Is there a way to get the first page of the report to display, while the rest of the report finishes, so the browser window doesn't timeout and display the above error?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

hi ,
There is no limit on the report run time. The most probable reason why you are getting the 'Report cancelled upon user request' message is the users might have hit the "cancel Report" button which is displayed when it is running in 'SYNCHRONOUS MODE'. do not hit that button as it will terminate the report. to increase the speed of returning the results by the report, try improving the sql that you use in the report, or if you have DBA rights try adding in INDEXES on the columns of the tables used by the report.
Hope this helps

Can i open a existing report using a report generation toolkit

Hello All,
Suppose I create a new excel report today and close the program, Tomorrow I open the same program and instead of creating a new excel file, i need to update the test results data into the excel file which was created yesterday, is this possible.
I am confused because there is no option called Open report in report generation toolkit, it just has create new report option.
Probably NI Guys can work on this...sorry if it is a;lready existing?
Is there any method to open a existing report?
Pls help.....
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
I have a similar problem. I'd like to use Report Generation Toolkit to enter data into some cells in the active worksheet of the active workbook but it seems impossible?! The user has in beforehand opened the desireed workbook and activated the desired worksheet. I use the 'New Report' VI with the template input set as the path of the active workbook (some self-made ActiveX calls to get the path). When this VI is run, howevere, the excel file is sort of re-opened and another worksheet becomes the active one.
I tried to make a customized copy of New Report.vi, New Report subVI.vi and Excel_Open_Workbook.vi so that the Report object works with the currently active workbook and worksheet, but I failed due to my lack of knowledge in LV classes and such things. It would've been an ugly solution anyway to have custom low-level VIs that does not follow when the RepGen Toolkit develops in the future.
Best regards,
Andreas Nilsson

How can I get Status of the report using after report trigger

I want to get Status of my report on GUI . I am aware that we can look into XMLP_SCHED_OUTPUT table to get all the required details but I am not aware as how I can pull data from this table and make it available on GUI screen. Or is there any way to use jobid of the report and use in Data template of the same report?
Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

What/which GUI? One of your own making? Design it and query from the table(s) of interest, and populate fields based on the results. Which job ID? The latest or one of your choosing? Add a drop down list or menu and let the user select which job. Fairly vague requirements you've listed.

Error while generating Report through XL Reporter.

Hello..
I am using microsoft excel 2003.I have installed XL Reporter 2005SP1. While i am trying to generate report throgh excel reporter i get the following error.
Security setting in microsoft excel prohibit XL Reporter from running.
For more information click Help.
I also tried by making security level low in microsoft excel -->Tools > Macros> Security.But still problem there.
Thanks,

Hi Arpit,
As well as setting the macro security to Medium or lower, you need to tick the options 'Trust all installed add-ins and templates' and 'Trust access to Visual Basic Projects'. These options appear at the bottom of the Trusted Publishers tab in the Macro Security window.
Hope this helps,
