Report Description in BI - how to..

Hello,
I want to create for various reports a description ("What does the report say"). One way can be to create a link to the document in the WebTemplate. But this is a static variant.
Target is to create a dynamic variant. That means that in the WebTemplate should be no change (link to the document) should not change if the document is changed.
Is there any possiblity?
Also other file formates should be available. Is Knowledge Warehouse a solution?
Thanks for creative ideas.

Hi,
What i understand from your query is that you want to have standard web template format but dynamically you have assign the report descriptions. For this you can do one thing as BI uses the default 0Analysis_pattern web template for the Enterprise reporting information broadcasting and so on. You can create a custom(Z version) Web template by copying this standard template( 0Analysis_pattern) and change the format as you wish and assign the Z version template as the default template for all you queries. You can set up this with tcode RSCUSTV27. I hope this helps you.
Thanks,
RRRR

    Do obtain text from table STXL you can use FM: READ_TEXT.
    Get the entry from STXL that you are requiring and get the text using this FM.

  • Report to show me how many invoices are being processed by users

    Hi, 
    I am currently working as a Accounts Payable Supervisor and I would like to run a report to show me how many invoices are being processed by users in my team. 
    Currently I am using Transaction F.98  (Posted Docs by user report), but this report includes posting from intercompany so all users will have duplicate invoices showing on this report. 
    Is there any other report I could run to get the result I am after?
    Many thanks
    Alex

    Hello Alex,
    You can also use the GL line item report (FBL3N) with the offsetting accounts (for example GR/IR A/c) which would be posted while posting the invoice. You can display the results with User Name and also can create a layout of your own which can be used time and again.
    Kind Regards // Shaubhik

  • Report workload by calculating how many versions of SharePoint list items created in a certain time period

    I have a total of 66 SharePoint 2010 lists - yes, 66! - each lists contains between 1500 and 3200 list items.  My employees update these various list items throughout their workday.  Each update to a list item creates a new version of the list
    item.  On average each list item will have anywhere from 5 to 10 versions before it is done.  I need to create a report that tells me how many list items they've updated in a certain time frame.  I have come close but still cannot arrive at
    the data I'm looking for. 
    This is what I have so far:
    I've created a report using SQL Report Builder 2008 v3 where I've filtered it to show only items MODIFIED between, for example, Feb1 and Feb28.  Of those records, I want the report to tell me how many versions were created during that time
    frame.  The result is one list item with 5 total versions.  Versions 1.0, 2.0, & 3.0 were created on 12/12/14.  The last two versions, 4.0 and 5.0, were created on 2/24/15.  Therefore, the answer I'm looking for is 2 because they
    created 2 versions between Feb1 and Feb28.
    However I get the following results using these queries:
    If I do a =Sum(Fields!owshiddenversion.Value) in the expression field I get the total versions which is 5
    If I do a =Count(Fields!owshiddenversion.Value) in the expression field I get the instance which is 1
    Is there a way to count ONLY the number of versions created in a time period?  Is there another hidden field in SharePoint that I can use in the expression that will give me results I'm looking for?

    Hi Rafael70,
    Per my understanding that you have already get all the need fields and informaiton of the updated version of list items and now you want to calculate how many versions of SharePoint list items created in a certain time period, you can't get desired result
    using sum and count function, right?
    I have tried to tested on my local environment but because I am not clear what is value in the field "owshiddenversion", I assumed you have two datatype parameters (StartDate and EndDate) to help filter the report in a certain time period.
    Generally, if you have add the filter correctly, it will filter the correct number's updated version in this time period, I would like you to provide details information as below to help better analysis the requirements:
    Could you please provide sample data of the table.
    Please provide snapshot of the report structure you have currently designed.
    Please try to provide all the expression you have used.
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • I used Duplicate Annihilator to isolate dups in iPhoto on my iMac. At the end it told me it had marked the word duplicate in the comments / description field. How do I find and delete the marked photos?

    I used Duplicate Annihilator to isolate dups in iPhoto on my iMac. At the end of its search, it told me it had marked the word duplicate in the comments / description field. How do I find and delete the marked photos?

    File -> New Smart Album
    Description -> contains -> Duplicate
    will find them.
    Then the keystroke to delete depends on which version of iPhoto you have. All the keyboard shortcuts are under the Help menu.

  • Special Characters in Report Name or Report Description(URGENT)

    Hi All,
    I am using Hyperion Financial Reporting System 9 tool. Could anyone tell me what problem we face if we use special characters in report name and report description?
    Waiting for quick response.
    Regards,
    SN

    when using "&" in report and folder titles we had issues with report books not being able to run and also the report name would be incorrectly described.
    try to avoid if possible, there is a lower risk if using on an all windows enviroment (clients and servers) but if you have *nix OS it does introduce complexity.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

  • Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it?

    Where do I find the Adobe pdf 9.0 printer description file and how do I install it? Operating system is Windows 7 and I have Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 installed. Adobe Acrobat X Pro just updated to version 10.1.8

    Hi. Thanks for the replyl
    I'm in prepress, working mainly with Quark XPress for advertising files and with Word, Photoshop, everything, for many years. My older computer is the workhorse with Quark 6.5 and CS4 and OSX 10.4.11. Everything is set up for me to produce PDF x1a files by printing .ps files from Quark and Word, and InDesign.
       My newer computer, OSX 10.9.4, must now be used to a greater extent. So I have Quark 9 and 10 and now Creative Suite for the Cloud. But I don't have any Adobe PDF printer which I select when I print .ps files and place into my Distiller Watched Folder. I by pass selecting the Adobe PDF printer in Word and just print straight to .ps. The .ps file just sits in the Watched Folder and no longer flows into Distiller, processed and out. Is this the way of the future? I just want a smooth, fast flow for PDF's. I want them to be PDF x1a compliant for hi-quality printing.
    Thought you might help to give me info as to how one uses Distiller (or not) with the new operating system and latest programs. Can't seem to find any info as of yet by searching the Adobe FAQ's and the Internet in general.
    Thanks alot.

  • When the system status says icloud is OK but it reports "encountered an error when connecting to the server", where do you report the problem, or how do you connect?

    When the system status says icloud is OK but logon reports "encountered an error when connecting to the server", where do you report the problem, or how do you connect?

    Yes i am hoping staff here will look into things, even if i can not get the speeds back what i previously had for near 6 months it would be nice to know why i can not and why the download has dropped by around 10Mb and why my upload is now inconsistant.
    Ironically the post concerned got edited because i actually posted the full rather silly reply the Indian call centre made babbling on about down rates rather than the uprate i queried with them.
    Bit of a shambles really no real way on BTs web site to contact anyone with regards to broadband issues.
    The form which you kindly suggested and i appreciated your help ended up in the hands of someone who either did not bother to read the query or just had such a poor grasp of English they did not understand the query.
    Pretty pathetic really when BT are the largest telco in the UK. I think ill be taking my broadband business elsewhere regardless at the end of my 18 month contract, while im sure staff here are wonderful and may even yet help me, i do not particularly want to go through the almost like pulling teeth pain of getting any future issue looked at.
    They are great at quickly fixing voice line problems and have a great test on their site. Broadband side of things and support for that though seems a shambles.

    I want to make sure that points 2&3 are at the same level, so I can just move the envelope region between them up and down to change the volume. Any quick way to do this to speed up my process?
    Specifically to address this point: if you mouse over the audio levels' rubber band segment BETWEEN your points 2) and 3) until the cursor changes to an up/down adjustment arrow ⬍, and move it up/down, it will adjust BOTH the levels at 2) and 3), maintaining the relative difference between them (or, if points 2) and 3) start at the same level, this adjustment will keep them equal as you drag them both up/down together in one action.)
    As usual, much easier to DO it, rather than describe it!

  • Report Description Truncation with Crystal Report

    During the process of moving Crystal Reports to a BOXI Rel 2 using the CMC we noticed that the report description was truncated.
    Is there a character limitation in the repository that is different then the character limitation within Crystal?

    Hello,
    The classic ASP COM component has been retired. The last version to ship with the RDC COM component was Crystal Reports XI Release 2 (v11.5). Since the RDC COM component has been retired Crystal Reports 2008 isn't expected to work with classic ASP.
    The suggested migration path is to move to the Crystal Reports .NET SDK. You can find additional information about the CR .NET SDK in the sticky posts at the top of this NET - SAP Crystal Reports forum.

  • How to find out all the reports in production, ran how many times?

    Hi experts,
    I like to find out all the reports in production, ran how many time and by which user. Can I use st03n for this? if yes how and where to go?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sharat.

    Hi,
    You can use the statistics Cube 0BWTCT_C02. To get the Frequency of how many times a report has been executed, drill down the particular report by 0CALDAY and the frequency in 0FREQUENCY Keyfigure.
    Make sure the Cube is loaded,
    Thanks & Regards,
