Report Execution issues after cube comperssion

Hi Everyone.
We had performance issues with respect to report execution in SAP portal. After the analysis we have realised that the cube is growing in its size and reached 200 million already.
As per SAP suggestion, we had compressed the cube and the reports started running faster than before.
Now, after the release we have realised that some report executions with hierarchy expansion are caused exception in BEX web application.
Below is the error that we receive
When verified the query, we identified that "Active" was set to "Suppress Zeros" query properties and when we modified it is " Active ( All values =0)" it was working fine.
Could not figure out the reason behind this.
Any quick response is much appreciated.

Just wanted to help others on this issue if they face in future.
We are basically in patch 3 and SAP recommended to upgrade the system to patch 10 to solve this issue.
We are still in the process of doing this as it needs approvals, testing etc to be done.
Hope this will be solved after this upgrade and I will post the result in this blog.
Stay tuned .

Reporting authorization issue after BI 701 05 EHP1 upgrade

Hello,
We have recently upgraded our BI 7.0 to BI 701 EHP1 with 05 patch level. After this we had a problem with reporting authorizations for a report (query), which has created under Virtual Infoprovider.
Earlier the report use to be execute perfectly with authorizations S_RS_ICUBE object with Act 03, Subobject DATA, but after upgrade to EHP1, while executing report its throwing a error pasted below.
=============================================================================================
"Diagnosis
Errors occured while reading a VirtualProvider outside the BI system. Check whether the previous error messages contains any information about the possible cause of this error.
It is possible that the error message can not be displayed because the error message class does not exist in the BI system. If this is the case, only the name of the error class and the message number are displayed. View the error class in the source system of the VirtualProvider.
System Response
Procedure
Since the error is not necessarily in the BI system, there is no specific procedure for resolving it. With VirtualProviders, problems often occure with the connection to the system; these can lead to system termination. If the code for the VirtualProvider is not from the SAP, contact the relevant person to help resolve the issue.
If an SQL error is listed in the previous message, see the procedure for SQL errors."
===============================================================================================
After running st01 trace we identified the missing authorization is S_RS_ICUBE with Act 03, subobject DEFINATION.
Here please tell why is the subobject check is performed to execute a report (query), as this is happening after EHP1 upgrade, so let me know if anyone had any clue on this ...
Thanks

Hi Martin,
Thanks for reply.
The assumption what you made are correct, but these are the possible reasons only. Is there any specific note or any info from sap that these changes came due to the new release change, so that i can tell my manager clearly.
And I am not sure whether this is impacting the reports which using the VirtualProviders (Virtual CUBE) in place. If you could get bit more information that will be helpful...Thanks in advance.

Report printing issue after upgrading from LV 8.2 to LV 2009

Hello,
I am upgrading an application from LabView 8.2 to LabView 2009. It uses the Report Generation Toolkit to create reports based on Word templates. The reports are pretty complicated, with a lot of bookmarks, tables, and graphs, but only one page long.
The reports are generated correctly. However when sent to printing (using Print report.vi), the printer goes into spooling status and if you are patient enough you may get the report after at least 7 minutes. I tried changing the printer setting to "Print directly to the printer", as per an old KnowledgeBase article. No luck. I have installed a local printer. No luck again.
If I close the LabView application while the printer is shown in spooling status, the report prints right away, every time.
Never had this issue in LabView 8.2. On that machine I had Office XP. Now I have Office 2007...
I do not get any error whatsoever, and I cannot figure out where the solution may be.
I have one single report that prints right away every time I try. Coincidence or not, this is the only one that has no tables to print. It has graph though and plenty of bookmarks.
I have exhausted all the ideas on how to deal with this situation, and I must find a solution ASAP. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Brandon,
Thanks for your input.
Not sure how I can use it to narrow down the problem though. I ran it, and I see that the printers are correctly identified, the default one is correctly found, however absolutely nothing is being printed out (I typed a text in the string control, and the Print control was on).
Everything runs with no errors. I would prefer to see a bunch of errors ...

Report Authorization issues after Authorization Migration in BI 7.0

Hi SAPians,
we are facing report access for the customers after migration of authorizations (3.x to 7.0). All these are Customer reports and need to restrict their customer codes only. In two ways, i have tried to resolved this.
1. Roles - Maintained Customer Number in the authorized object CUSTOMER - Not working.
2. Created new authorization object through RSECADMIN and maintained the Customer Number with proper activity, validity etc.. - Not Working
(For Ex. Customer Number is "11500" and length of Char is 10)
While executing the report, i am getting below error:
Value "0000011500" for variable "Customer Authorization(Multiple Optional)" is invalid
Message no. BRAIN643
Diagnosis
Characteristic value "0000011500" is not valid for variable Customer Authorization(Multiple Optional).
Thanks and Regards,
Venkat

Hi,
It depends of the way your authorizations has been setup. If you did it role based or profiles direct to the customer. You should also look into the fact that the migration tool can create direct a profile (not a role with a profile). My way of working in a role based application was that I looked for the roles with objects s_rs_mpro, s_rs_icub, s_rs_odso, s_rs_iset(these are the objects that needs to be replaced with RSECADMIN) and the own build objects with rssm. I added the authorization object s_rs_auth to the role and the new objects made with RSECADMIN. If you transport then the roles and objects made in RSECADMIN it works good. Bottom line beaware of profiles that are not created by the profile generator.
Have fun

Report script issue (ASO cube)

Hi All,
I have few report scripts in ASO which I am executing them using Maxl.
When I run the scripts manually and exporting it to console window, I am able to see the data.
When I use Maxl and exporting it to excel file, the log file does not show any error and data is not exported to excel file.
Can anyone help me if they faced a similar problem with report scripts.
Thanks in advance.

Rav

There are 8+ scripts and here is one of the similar script. Few are Asymmetric scripts with columns, Year and Months.
I think there is no issue with the script as I have run it many times before but from past two days I am facing the problem as it exports partial data or else no data is exported.
It is not throwing any errors including cartesian product error.

Crystal Reports Duplexing issues after upgrading to SP5

Our Application Software Vendor uses Crystal Reports XI as their reporting tool. Recently we upgraded our application software which included upgraded from CR XI SP3 to SP5. Since then we've experianced problems printing some of the reports in DUPLEX mode. All our printers are set up to print DUPLEX by default. Since they upgrade, many of our reports have begun to print SINGLE SIDED even though EVERYTHING should print in DUPLEX. This only occurs if the report is to print to the users DEFAULT printer. If the user changes printers before running the report, it prints correctly in DUPLEX mode. I opened the reports in the CR designer and changed the preinter setting to select the DEFAULT printer. This worked in a couple of instances, but not for most of the reports. Any input/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I create all Crystal reports using the HP III driver as the designeted printer and have for 10 + years.. It is the generic HP driver Seems to solve alot of printer problems that i have encountered reqardless of what printer they are actually using.
This is not used to replace the users print driver, just within the actual creation of the Reports.
Good Luck.

Subvi execution issue after building .exe

Hi all,
I've seen a lot related to this topic but haven't found anything specific to my situation.
I built a simple wrapper to launch different subvi's depending on if it is saturday or not.
The vi works perfectly fine as a vi in LV2012. But when I build the application, both cases execute-that is, both subvi front panels appear and i get a message warning me that I can't run multiple instances of the same subvi.
I expect it to execute either the true or false case and open the correct subvi once and be done with it. Not sure why both cases try to execute more than once only after I build the application. Ideas?
Solved!

To begin with, you will never get a TRUE (Sat) output because you wired 3 to the offset input of the String Subset function. It should be wired to the length input.
None of this can explain the observed behavior, mo matter how buggy the comparison is. Only one of the cases will execute. It is never possible that "both cases execute" as described.
What is the exact error message? Can you attach the full toplevel VI? What else is in there?
Once you build an application, the toplevel VI will run when opened, of course. Is this handled correctly in the code?
Can you attach the full project, including the build specs?

Crystal Report Date Issue after SSIS

Hello,
I created a ETL process from Oracle to SQL, with 2 date fields, when I open CR I see them as 'string [10]' and not as date, can anybody know why is that ?
Thank you
Daniel

You need to find out if you have the source table column defined as string (CHAR/VARCHAR).
But I would not worry about CR, just use a formula. Perhaps the date format is not ISO or different than yout locale so it gets picked as text.

XI R2 To 3.1 Sp2 migration and report format issues

Hello,
is there a way to fix or troubleshoot report format issues after migrating to 3.1?
We have a heavy report that the format (the way the report looks) is very important. In crytal Reports 2008 sp2 the format is OK.
But from BOE CMC or from url reporting the report format have problems.
Thank you

Hi Ruhver,
Crystal Report documents are heavily dependant on the printer driver for formatting. If you design the report using a specific default driver than it will be dependant on that printer driver for formatting. When you publish it to Enterprise, the same printer driver may not exist so the report will be re-formated to fit the default driver on the server, or if no driver exists, it will use an internal method to format the report.
Try this as a test.
1) Open your report in the CR 2008 designer.
2) Click on the File/Page Setup.
3) Select the "No Printer" option. This tells the report to use this internal method to format the report
4) Save this document as "Title - No Printer"
5) Export it to Enterprise
6) Test this report again. Formatting should be identical in BOE vs CR.
Keep in mind that when you change the driver in step 3, the report in the designer will re-format. You may need to tweak the report again in order for the formatting to be as desired.
Test this out and if you require further assistance with this, I would suggest opening a message. This is a common issue and a support engineer could likely help you with this pretty easily.
Hope this helps,
Jb

Performance issue in browsing SSAS cube using Excel for first time after cube refresh

Hello Group Members,
This is a continuation of my earlier blog question -
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/a1e424a2-f102-4165-a597-f464cf03ebb5/cache-and-performance-issue-in-browsing-ssas-cube-using-excel-for-first-time?forum=sqlanalysisservices
As that thread is marked as answer, but my issue is not resolved, I am creating a new thread.
I am facing a cache and performance issue for the first time when I try to open a SSAS cube connection using Excel (using Data tab -> From Other Sources --> From Analysis Services) after daily cube refresh. In end users system (8 GB RAM but around
4GB available RAM), for the first time, it takes 10 minutes to open the cube. From next run onwards, its open up quickly within 10 secs.
We have daily ETL process running in high end servers. The configuration of dedicated SSAS cube server is 8 core, 64GB RAM. In total we have 4 cube DB - out of which for 3 is full cube refresh and 1 is incremental refresh. We have seen after daily cube
refresh, it takes 10 odd minutes to open the cube in end users system. From next time onwards, it opens up really fast with 10 secs. After cube refresh, in server systems (32 GB RAM, around 4GB available RAM), it takes 2 odd minutes to open the cube.
Is there, any way we could reduce the time taken for first attempt ?
As mentioned in my previous thread, we have already implemented a cube wraming cache. But, there is no improvement.
Currently, the cumulative size of the all 4 cube DB are more than 9 GB in Production and each cube DB having 4 individual cubes in average with highest cube DB size is 3.5 GB. Now, the question is how excel works with SSAS cube after
daily cube refresh?
Is it Excel creates a cache of the schema and data after each time cube is refreshed and in doing so it need to download the cube schema in Excel's memory? Now to download the the schema and data of each cube database from server to client, it will take
a significant time based on the bandwidth of the network and connection.
Is it anyway dependent to client system RAM ? Today the bigest cube DB size is 3.5 GB, tomorrow it will be 5-6 GB. Now, though client system RAM is 8 GB, the available or free RAM would be around 4 GB. So, what will happen then ?
Best Regards, Arka Mitra.

Could you run the following two DMV queries filling in the name of the cube you're connecting to. Then please post back the row count returned from each of them (by copying them into Excel and counting the rows).
I want to see if this is an issue I've run across before with thousands of dimension attributes and MDSCHEMA_CUBES performance.
select [HIERARCHY_UNIQUE_NAME]
from $system.mdschema_hierarchies
where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
select [LEVEL_UNIQUE_NAME]
from $system.mdschema_levels
where CUBE_NAME = 'YourCubeName'
Also, what version of Analysis Services is it? If you connect Object Explorer in Management Studio to SSAS, what's the exact version number it says on the top server node?

Data in Table Control vanishes after report execution

Hi,
I have created a report program with a table control on its selection screen (on a subscreen).
The report executes perfectly, but, after the report execution, once the control comes back to the selection screen, the data entered in the table control gets cleared.
Please let me know how can I retain the data entered in the table control even after the report execution.
Regards,
David.

Hello,
When control comes back to selection screen. PBO event executes and possibly internal table has got cleared somewhere before that.
Debug you code to find the exact problem line. You can also add watchpoint for internal table with value initial. So code will break in debug mode whenever internal table is cleared.
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
Augustin.

Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query

Hi All,
There is a Performance issue after Upgrade from 4.7 to ECC 6.0 with a select query in a report painter.
This query is working fine when executed in 4.7 system where as it is running for more time in ECC6.0.
Select query is on the table COSP.
SELECT (FIELD_LIST)
        INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE I_COSP PACKAGE SIZE 1000
        FROM COSP CLIENT SPECIFIED
        WHERE GJAHR IN SELR_GJAHR
          AND KSTAR IN SELR_KSTAR
          AND LEDNR EQ '00'
          AND OBJNR IN SELR_OBJNR
          AND PERBL IN SELR_PERBL
          AND VERSN IN SELR_VERSN
          AND WRTTP IN SELR_WRTTP
          AND MANDT IN MANDTTAB
        GROUP BY (GROUP_LIST).
   LOOP AT I_COSP      .
     COSP                           = I_COSP      .
     PERFORM PCOSP       USING I_COSP-_COUNTER.
     CLEAR: $RWTAB, COSP                          .
     CLEAR CCR1S                         .
   ENDLOOP.
ENDSELECT.
I have checked with the table indexes, they were same as in 4.7 system.
What can be the reson for the difference in execution time. How can this be reduced without adjusting the select query.
Thanks in advance for the responses.
Regards,
Dedeepya.

Hi,
ohhhhh....... lots of problems in select query......this is not the way you should write it.
Some generic comments:
1. never use SELECT
                   endselect.
   SELECT
into table
   for all entries in table
where.
   use perform statment after this selection.
2. Do not use into corresponding fields. use exact structure type.
3. use proper sequence of fields in the where condition so that it helps table go according to indexes.
    e.g in your case
          sequence should be
LEDNR
OBJNR
GJAHR
WRTTP
VERSN
KSTAR
HRKFT
VRGNG
VBUND
PARGB
BEKNZ
TWAER
PERBL
sequence should be same as defined in table.
Always keep select query as simple as possible and perform all other calculations etc. afterwords.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Pranaya

Reporting Services R2 log entries have stopped generating on report execution.

Hi -
I have a new instance of a reporting server and the log files have quit generating on report execution.
When the services restart this is the log file:
rshost!rshost!8e8!01/22/2014-17:08:33:: i INFO: CLR runtime is initialized.

We have logging turned on on the server. Report Server Mode is Native. Dont see anything in the application log about failed service.
Any ideas?

Hi dwrco,
Have you recently install any update such as MS12-070 (KB2716440)? If so, it is a known issue for some patches for SQL Server. The reason is as follows:
When a .NET application starts up, the .NET Framework tries to check if the Microsoft assemblies are right and have not been modified, this is done through connecting to a server that has a revocation list in internet. When the framework tries to connect
to the server to check if it has access to internet with an elevated timeout, this makes that any other .NET application that has less timeout setting fails (such as SSIS or SSRS) with timeout error.
For example, the error message "The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion." means that the SSRS timeout is lower than the timeout of the connection to the revoke list server established by .NET Framework.
To work around the issue, we usually use two approaches:
Increase the value of ServicesPipeTimeout registry key of Reporting Services
Disable generatePublisherEvidence element of ReportingServicesService.exe.config file
For the detailed steps, please see:
