Report Developed in Webi Rich Client Consuming more time in Data Retrieval

Dear All,
I am a BO Consultant, recently in my project I have developed one report in Webi Rich Client., at the time of development and subsequent days the report was working fine (taking Data Retrieval time less than 1 minute), but after some days its taking much time (increasing day by day and now its taking more than 11 minutes).
Can anybody point out what could be the reason?????
We are using,
1. SAP BI 7.0
2. SAP BO XI 3.1 Edge
3. Webi Rich Client Version :12.3.0 and Build 601
This report is made on a Multiprovider (Sales).
What are the important points that should be considered so that we can improve the performance of Webi Reports????
Waiting for a suitable solution.....................
Regards,

Hi,
Please come back here with a copy/paste of the 2 MDX statements from the MDA.log to compare the good/bad runtimes.
& the 2 equivalent DPCOMMANDS clauses (good and bad) from the WebI trace logs.
Can u explain what u really mean in the bold text above..................Actually I didn't get you..........
Pardon, I have only 3 months experience in BO.

Bank row was added in webi rich client when using excel as data provider

reproduding steps:
1.open webi rich client.
2.Create a new webi report,then select "local data source"
3.select an excel file as data source.
4.run query.
For example,there are 5rows in excel,but in webi report there are 6 rows,and the last row is bank which is added by webi.
question
1. mcro has been defined in the excel file,is there any impact by using macro?
2.I want to know why this happens,

>could you please test the following solution if you have multiple data providers in the report.
>We need to manually link the dimensions then in the resulting crosstab/table we are need to apply >filters and select only the values but not the #empty values.
I have only one data provider in the report.
And, I have do the following test,
test1:Delete the last row which is blank row of the excel file,refresh webi report, the last blank row is still there.
test2: press ALT+F8,delete marco in the excel file,refresh webi report, the last blank row is still there,then delete the last blank row in the excel file ,save excel file,refresh webi,the last blank row is disappear.

Variable screen of webi rich client differs from one of Infoview

Hello
We are on BO XI 3.1 sp3, universe of the top of SAP BI 7.01 query.Webi version 12.3.0
Char1 is set to delegated search. Variable1 for char1 is mandatory, multiple single values on SAP BI side.
Webi reports (executed from webi rich client) allows search by value for this char1. Webi report (executed from infoview) doesnt allow any search for char1.
Button FIND (match case) looks inactive. It doesnt start search.
I tried different combinations (see below) but it doesnt help.
*XXX
XXX
XXX
Does anybody know that cases the difference?
Thanks

Herr Kommandante
Does it make a difference if you switch between HTML and JAVA viewers in Infoview?
Does it make a difference if you switch between View and Modify modes in Infoview?
Are you patched to the same level on both Client and Sercer?

Web rich client -- report tabs missing in edit mode

Hello,
A report was created in web Rich client and then was exported in the BO repository. In view mode, we
see all tabs, but in edit mode,only two tabs are displayed.
any idea please?
Thanks a lot.

hi,
I also faced the same issue.
I could replicate the issue suceessfully on a consistent basis.
STEPS to replicate the issue
1.     Create a new webi report using Island Resorts Marketing Universe
2.     Query Panel Objects
a.     Country, Resort, Service, Number of guests
3.     Run query (Tab 1 is created automatically)
a.     Report 1 u2013 Table containing above objects
4.     Right Click Report 1 - >Insert Report -> rename it to u2018Crosstabu2019
5.     Move the report tab to Left such that Crosstab appears as first tab
6.     Drag Crosstab from Templates.
a.     Pull Country and Resort objects as rows to Crosstab
b.     Pull Service as Column to Crosstab
c.     Pull Number of guests as measure to Crosstab
7.     Select Country -> Insert Break
8.     Select Resort -> Insert Break
9.     Select Resort First and Country Second -> Click on Merge Cells button
10.     Select No
11.     Now again click on Merge Cells button
12.     Select Yes this time.
13.     Save the report.
14.     View the report from Infoview. You will see both tabs
15.     Edit the report. (You cannot edit the second tab - Report 1. Edit the first tab u2018Crosstabu2019)
16.     only one tab is visible. Other tab u2018Report 1u2019 is missing.
Observations:
Report Footer appears as the top section in Map -> Structure
So my conclusion is when a reverse merge is applied on Crosstab with breaks, this issue occurs.
But i don't know how to recover the tabs in Edit mode.
Please let me know how to recover the missed tabs in Edit Mode. Also let me know the other scenarios which might lead to the same issue.

Vamsee

Parameterlist to strat WEBI Rich Client from commandline

Hi all,
Is it possible to start the WEBI Rich Client from the dos commandline to refresh a report like it is possible with deski?
Which parameters can I use?
Example
"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\WebIRichClient.exe" -User <username> -Pass <password< -System <servername> -Auth <auth> "<webidocname>.wid"
Thank you for you answers
Astrid

Hi Astrid,
I am also interested in hearing whether this is possible, but I suspect that it is not, unless you have the latest version of Webi, where there is a merging of the two in some ways.
Someone more knowledgeable on this subject should be able to come to your rescue.
Anyone?
Thanks, Bill

Umlauts not displayed in WebI Rich Client

Hello everyone,
We have a problem with one user machine using Web Intelligence Rich Client 2-tier mode.
Data umlauts (õäöüšž) are turned to symbols and the query result are incorrect.
It's interesting, because metadata umlauts are displayed correctly. For example, the user sees umlauts header of reports.
The problem have to be in one machine, because when same user log in to another computer then umlauts are displayed correctly.
Environment details:
XI3.1 Edge Professional with DI
Build Number: 601
Product Version: 12.3.0.601
Data Source: DWH
Database Name: Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit ...
Auditing: Enabled
Client details:
Windows 7 32-bit
Oracle client 11g
Rich Client version 12.3.0
NLS_LANG = ESTONIAN_ESTONIA.BLT8MSWIN1257
Do anyone have experience with this kind of problem?
Thanks in advance,
Jana

Hi Jana,
normaly this type of problem happens when the NLS_LANG variable is not set or is incorrectly set.
have a look at this KBA https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1260474
if you can't read it hte resolution is the following
Resolution
Ensure
that the Database is set to UTF8
NLS_LANG
to be set to UTF8 on the database server
If you are
importing the database from another server, make sure that the initial Database
is set to UTF8 too before doing the import/export.
Once this is done proceed as usual to set up Unicode for your
system >>>>Make sure a backup is done before making the
changes<<<<
Installed International Support features Microsoft Office Setup
Modify NLS_LANG on the client machine to be UTF8
(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\KEY_OracClient10G_home)
Ensure that Unicode parameter in oracle.prm and oracle.sbo files
are set to UTF8 (found in <install directory>\Business Objects\Business
Objects Enterprise 115\win32_x86\DataAccess\ConnectionServer\oracle)
Ensure Unicode parameter in cs.cfg file is set to UTF8 (found in
<install directory>\Business Objects\Business Objects Enterprise
115\win32_x86\DataAccess\ConnectionServer)
In Designer parameter make sure that UNICODE_STRING parameter is
set to Yes

Webi rich Client Drivers Issue

Hi,
I am facing errors when i try to run the query in WEBI Rich client whereas when I run these queries directly on the server I am not getting any error messages. Based on the error messages, I think I might need to install some drivers. Can anyone tell me the drivers that we need for Oracle & Microsoft?
When i try to run a Query on the webi rich Client for the Universe that was connecting to oracle, i am getting the following error message:
Below shown are the errors that I am facing with 2 universes which are connecting to SQL Server.
1. When i try to run a query for the Universe that is built on Cube, I am getting the following error:
2. When i try to run a query for the Universe that is built on Datamart, I am getting the following error:
Please help me out here if anyone knows the solution.
Thanks & Regards.

Hi,
short answer to your question : it depends on what your consuming.
you need to find out the exact version of these sources (i.e. ORA 11.1? MSAS 2008 SP2? etc)
then identify the middleware from that vendor which is supported by our SAP applications. For that, you need to cross-reference the 'product availability matrix ' (pam) for your specific Service Pack of the BO BIPlatform . www.service.sap.com/pam
then, you need to look at the connectivity of your universes to see which driver they are using (ODBC, JDBC or OLEDB for example) and then download the right file from the DB vendor's site.
then make sure that you install 32 bit MW on your client tools machine, and 64 bit on your server.
You will then need to administer the ODBC data source names (DSN) everywhere .
Good luck!

Webi Rich client - unable to connect to BO 4.0 Server.

Hello All,
we have a same issue while connecting to a BO4.0 server.from WEBI Rich client .
We are able to connect to infoview from browser,and able to open WEBI from browser.
but when tried from WEBI Rich client, we get error : Logon failure due to an internal error.
We have updated the hosts file but did not help.
Please help.
Thanks and regards,
Vinay

What happens if you change your preferences in BILaunch pad, so that the Webi Rich Client is launched when you Modify webi report ?
This way WRC will be launched in 3-tier mode and if succesfull this will indicate that WRC in 2-tier mode can't connect to CMS and FRS due to either Firewall or other problems.
Also, from WRC machine - can you connect using Designer or IDT ?

Xcelsius vs Webi Rich Client

If in a SAP implementation project BI reports are being designed using BEx Query Designer, is it necessary/mandatory that the BO reports i.e. Dashboards should be designed using Webi Rich Client tool, or can it also be possible using Xcelsius 2008 (formerly) now SAP BO Dashboards.)

Hi,
BO consultant can design & work on both Dashboard's & webi reports not only these need to work on other tools also like UDT,IDT, OLAP ,QAWS,Crystal Reports etc.
Business req & type of user : either report need to shown for
1. High level mgt ( Dashboard's)
2.Middle level mgt
3.Low level mgt
(Refer above link )
Till now I have very much user friendly with Xcelsius , so should I continue with Xcelsius or start doing R & D on Webi Rich client, so that if at all in the future it is required, it will make my work comfortable :
For this i explained it purely depends on Business requirement .
Mostly as a BO consultant need to be Familiar with all Reporting tool's (Xcelsius,webi,Crystal,Olap etc)
Thanks.

Webi Rich Client

Hello,
Can we access a universe that is on file server and run reports of it using webi rich client two tier ? If it is possible, how can we implement that?
Thanks

Hi Sumanta,
Our requirement is to store a universe on any shared location and all the users can access this universe and build reports using webi Rich client two tier. We are trying implement this by following steps.
There is an option in rich client to change the default universe location to save. When you login to Webi Rich Client and go to Tools-->Options, there you can give the shared location where the universe is saved. By doing this users can access the universe that is in shared drive, but all users must have a local ODBC connection to run the reports using Rich Client in Two tier.

CSS format in webi rich client

How to customize report look and feel when using webi rich client?

I think you have to make the similar changes in the client's CSS file as done in the CSS file of the server.
Because Web-I rich client works locally on a client machine and can't apply the server settings.

Rohit
