Report tools performance

Hi Guru:
The performance of the query designer/report designer is really slow in my laptop.
Is there any way to improve the performance of these tools?
I am in the newest patch of BEx.
Eric

Hi,
You can take a look at the OSS note 893348 whether your laptop hardware and software configuration covers requirements or not.If covers, check the following notes 1150242,1001681,1083462,1106067,104869 1025307.If these do not solve your problem,You can find more in service.sap.com/notes.

How should I report forum performance issues?

The forums rely heavily on the caching features of browsers to improve the speed of page rendering. Performance of these forums should greatly improve after a few pages because more and more of the images, css and javascript is cached in the browser. As a consequence, when reporting forums performance issues the report should include some information on the state of the browser cache to determine whether the issue is a browser issue or a server issue. Such detailed information is generally not available from just watching the browser screen, but needs to come from specialized tools such as performance monitor plugins and recording proxies.
The preferred report method for performance issues is to use the speed reporting features build into or available as a plugin for a browser for both the page you want to report a problem with and several refence pages in the site. Detailed instructions are listed below separated out for different browsers. If possible, please use Firefox for submitting the report because it provides an export format that can be read back electronically.
Known performance issues
The performance issues with any screen with a Rich Text Editor, such as the Reply window and the compose Private Message window have been acknowleged and improvements are being implemented.
Mozilla Firefox (preferred)
Warning: it is currently not recommended to generate a speed report when logged in. The speed report has enough detail for somebody else to hijack your session and impersonate you on the forums. If you really must report while logged in, make sure you log out your browser after generating the speed report and wait at least 4 hours before posting.

Since Google Chrome does not have an export format for the Resource Tracking information best current practice is to take a screenshot and note the hover details for any resource with a tail that is longer then 25% of the total load time. When you report a performance problem please attach the screenshots and an explanation of how you are experiencing the issues (for instance how much slower it is then normal) and include a description of your internet connection (dial-up, dsl, cable etc.) and the country from where you are connecting.

The Apple Safari Web Inspector has a Resources panel similar to the Resources panel in the Google Chrome developer tools.To get there, follow these steps:
Show the menu bar.
Go to preferences
Go to the Advanced Tab
Check “Show Develop menu in menu bar”.
From the Develop menu select “Show Web Inspector”.
Collecting the performance information and exporting works exactly the same as in Google Chrome. Please refer to the instructions for Google Chrome.
Microsoft Internet Explorer
IE does not have native features to analyze web traffic. No plugins have been found that produce the required information (please let us know if we missed any). For now, please reproduce the issue with Firefox, Chrome or Safari.
Please note that due to the reliance on Javascript for the interactive effects the performance of these forums will be much better on MS IE 8 then on previous versions of MS IE.

Reporting Tools

I'm relatively new to BW...I've been supporting it internally for our company for the last year+, but I come from a .NET background. My questions are in regards to the reporting tools that people use at different implementations. We use the BEx Analyzer with BW 3.5, but have been relatively disappointed with the user interface and the performance of the queries. We'll be upgrading to Netweaver BI after the first of the year.
1. What other reporting tools (3rd party, web tools, etc.) have people used and how have they performed with BW/BI?
2. How much of an improvement, either in performance or the user interface, is there with the upgrade to BI?
I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Tony

1. There are few third party reporting tools you can integrate with BW data like Business Object, Cognos Reporting sofware, Hyperion etc. All are pretty good.
2. If you are upgrading to BI 7.0, there are lots of new features added to BW/BI reporting tools and one new tool added is Report Designer.
If you are really upgrading to BI 7.0, I don't think you need any third party tools but again it depends on totally what tool you are comfortable with.

Limitations of Discoverer compared to Other Reporting tools

Hi,
I need to evaluate the Pro's and Con's of Oracle Discoverer.Can u please tell me the advantages and disadvantages when compared to Business Objects, Cognos or any other Reporting Tool.
Thanks, Prasad

Hey Prasad.
Now there's an open question (ie: which is better, Ford or Chevy).
I'm sure this has been address on this forum before so you might want to perform a search for this subject.
However, dipping my toes in the pool ...
1. Oracle is pushing Discoverer as an important tool in their repertoire. Future versions will now interface with XML Publisher (now BI Publisher), etc. so it's tightly inter-woven into Oracle. BO, Cognos, etc. are 3rd. party tools and therefore not tightly woven.
2. If running Oracle Apps, then you can use the BIS views for pre-written views, Disco workbooks, etc. It's simply not practical to try to use BIS without Discoverer.
3. Newest version of Disco (10g r2) now supports OLAP. Badly ... but it's a start.
4. Oracle is really pushing the idea of everything being in the database and therefore they are pushing OLAP, DW stuff in the database along with your relational stuff. What this means in tools is that they're strongly pushing Disco with OLAP instead of a customer having to buy hardware, software (ie: Hyperion, Cognos, etc.), people (dbas to manage, software types to program), etc. and exporting your data from the Oracle database to a 3rd. party database to then report on. Again, Disco with OLAP (and someday if actual possible / practical) mixing your OLTP stuff with OLAP stuff.
5. It's been awhile since I used BO and Cognos so not sure if their newest versions have the same idea of 3 versions (well 2 someday) where you create the report with Plus (or Desktop) and allow users to lightly manipulate (but not create) existing reports using a simple HTML browser (Viewer).
6. Discoverer is a neat name as it sounds like you're stuttering ...
I'm sure they'll be lots of other reasons stated by others on this board, but if I was betting the farm on where to go, I would go with Discoverer if I had an Oracle installation. It'll cost you - and Oracle is definitely in it for making a buck or two - but if you're in for a penny with Oracle databases, etc., then you're in for a pound and using 3rd party tools that may do the same, less or even a bit more, never appeals to me as Oracle will either catch up and surpass them ... or let's be realistic ... buy them out! Like Microsoft, they've been doing that lately with a spare few billion dollars falling out of Larry's pockets.

GL Drilldown Reporting Tool - Summation of constants (OBDC)

Hi,
we are using the drilldown reporting tool (financial statement key figures) and want to incorporate constants for e.g. number of working days, number of sales orders.
We defined the constants in the corresponding customizing transaction OBDC and maintained values per company code/year/month. So, for example, we have for the constant DAYS:
Company Code 1000, Year 2010, Period 4, DAYS:20
Company Code 1000, Year 2010, Period 5, DAYS:19
Company Code 1000, Year 2010, Period 6: DAYS:21
In the form for the drilldown report, a row is defined using the constant "DAYS". Then a "Selection with key figures" is made, where we select the constant again, as well as year (e.g. 2010) and period from (variable) to period to (variable).
When executing the report for 2010, months April to June, we would expect the system to add up the values for DAYS, coming up with the value "60" for the column. However, the system shows the value for the last selected period (June): 21.
Can someone tell me if we are doing something wrong in the definition of the report or if it is simply not possibe to add up constants like this. Any suggestions how to proceed to solve this?
Thanks in advance
Tanja

Constants are normally treated as text strings. So mathematical functions are not performed on them.

Difference among the reporting tool

Hi There,
I am new on Hyperion, I am wondering what is the differences among these reporting tools:
1. Interactive Reporting
2. Financial Reporting
3. SQR Production reporting

I think you will find the following links helpful.

Data sheet: Hyperion Interactive Reporting-IR (PDF)
http://www.oracle.com/us/products/middleware/bus-int/064327.pdf
Keep in mind that of the 3 listed only Financial Reporting is considered a strategic reporting tool.
Oracle's strategic replacements are as follows

Comparison in reporting tools

Hi All,
I have a question, that whenever we are presented with a requirement document to develop a report,how can we determine which is the best reporting tool which can be used.
Regards,
Ankur

Hi,
'each worksheet essentially creates and runs a single SQL statement 'A Discoverer workbook is like an Excel and is made up of a number of worksheets. When the user runs a worksheet Discoverer builds an SQL statement and sends this to the database. The results returned from the database are then displayed. Each worksheet can run a single SQL statement so you cannot have separate SQL for example, for header and body, you must combine all the data you want in the worksheet into a single query.
'With Reports 6i each report can run many SQL Statements and the results can be formated in anyway you like'.In Reports 6i you can create many queries within a report, so for example you can have master and detail queries. So can use the master query to display the header records and the detail query for the records under the heading. You can layout and format the results on page anyway you want, so for example, so can format one field based on the content in another field.
Is it somehow performance based difference also?Both the tools run SQL in the database, so if the SQL is the same then you will get much the same performance. If the data returned in Discoverer workbook is the same as the data in the Reports 6i report then they can use the same SQL, so you won't see any performance difference.

BI Reporting Tools - Which one to prefer ?

We have many number of use Oracle Financials users and we do have exposure to all BI reporting tools, in addition to OFA. We are finding it dfficult to understant which tool would be the best to use in different situatoin. As we have Discoverer, DBI, OFA, ADI - It is confusing which tool to prefer in the first point, while creating reports.Also as we are in the developing end, we find it difficult to tell poeple that this tool would be the best for this sitation, as the same report could also be generated from other reporting tools.
Could anyone tell me where I can find documentation that would help us to identify the right tools for the right situation?
Many thanks.

For actual reporting tools, the standard Oracle Reports is of course popular as it comes with Oracle Apps predefined reports.
However, Discoverer is popular as it allows 'ad-hoc' reporting (which is another whole story in that do you want end users to perform ad-hoc querying) and its a tool that under 10g r2 has really come together.
XML Publisher is definitely something that Oracle is pushing more - and supposedly a some time in the long future replacement for Reports (so I've heard but who knows if the source is correct).
If you're referring to relational table tools, then the biggies are Oracle Discoverer, Cognos Impromptu, Business Objects, Brio, etc. However some have been bought out in recent past (ie: Brio). They all use a middle layer (ie: EUL, catalog, universe) and all have strengths and weaknesses. It's usually a safe argument to use the Oracle tool (if you can wait for it to catch up to competitors) as Oracle tools are usually tightly aligned with Oracle database, Apps, etc. But if you want more disparate sources to use the tool with, then Oracle tools (ie: Discoverer) may not always be the best one to use.
For OLAP reporting, the big boy is Hyperion (but at a considerable cost). Now, however Oracle is really trying to kill these other tools (sorry ... compete with), with the 10g database that supports relational and OLAP in the same database and their query tools (ie: Disco Plus 10g r2) that can access both / either.
So, it's one of those questions that always comes around again. Of course, General Motors is better than Ford, right? Same argument, but I've found that a company hanging it's hat on Oracle tools in an Oracle environment (database) and especially in an Oracle Apps shop (Enterprise Suite), usually is happy. Not always happy at the current version, but Oracle with it's humungous amount of money and resources, usually either gets their tool up to their competitor's level - or buys them out!

Which Oracle reporting tool do I use?

I’m looking for a web based ad-hoc reporting tool, Preferably an Oracle product. Something that once set up and configured (point to a specific database) select users can login into via a browser and build ad-hoc reports. I don’t want to have to create a report then publish it for the end user and especially nothing should need to be installed on any desktop.
Amongst the confusing vast array of oracle BI products: Oracle Reports, BI Publisher, Business Intelligence Server, Interactive Dashboards, Intelligence Answers, Oracle Business Activity, Hyperion Interactive Reporting, Hyperion Web Analysis etc, etc, etc...... there must be what I’m looking for.
If someone could please point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi ,
It depends on you requirements...
You can use Interactive Reporting Tool. To use Interactive Reporting you need to install below components
1) Shared Services
2) Reporting and Analysis BI Services
3) Reporting and Analysis UI Services ( includes Interactive Reporting, Financial Reportinig, Web Analysis and Workspace)
To meet you requirement you can perform the below tasks
1) Create an OCE publish the same to Workspace.
2) Give access to user on that OCE.
3) User can create their own reports.
For more details on the same, please visit
Hyperion System 9.3.1

Hi,
Following are the actions/activities I'm performing to fetch the BPC data into BO Webi report:
1- Created connection - using odbo provider - successful (I can see the BPC application and test connection works fine too)
2- Built universe - universe successfully created, having all the dimensions of underlying BPC application.
3- Creating Webi report - when I run the report it says "No data to retrieve". But there's data in BPC application.
Have anyone experienced the same? Any resolution?

What is the best reporting tool to use over a WAN

I am currently working on improving the performance of our Oracle FMIS over a WAN that covers most of Australia.
I was wondering if anyone could point me to tech information on the impact of Oracle Reporting tools on a WAN.
The three tools we use are ADI, Discoverer and strait Oracle Reports.
I am not an expert in Oracle so even basic info on the effect of the 3 products would be of help, of course if anyone is willing to share their experiences it would be appreciated.
We have two major user sites of 500 people seperated by 3000km and 5 minor sites 2000 from head office. I unfortunalty am at the major office 3000km from the server with 500 dissatisfited users.

Best OLTP Reporting Tool

Hi Gurus,
My company asked me to build a reporting framework to support their needs on OLTP, i am trying to do some research on which tool is the best tool to do reporting on OLTP..
Need help to find out a best reporting tool to make reports on OLTP data base
Right now we are using OBIEE for our OLAP reporting and we are open to implement any tools, need inputs and comparisons between all the available tools and pros and cons also.
Appreciate all your inputs/suggestion.
Thanks,
Seshu.

1) I guess you tried to pull thousands or report's rows on screen. Firstly OBIEE does pagination perfectly. Secondly human being cannot handle more than 30-50 lines physically. It is simple psychology. As soon as you've jumped on other couple pages you have no idea what was on the first pages. I've never seen such an idiot who would need report even with few hundred rows. Such reports are example of bad practice.I agree with that but you missed my point. Enterprises are large "beats" and as such they have many departments where they use different tools. In an ideal world you will have one and only one DWH with one an only one reporting tool on top. The thruth is that this never ever happens in reality. So in many cases users are asked to provide larde data extracts to use as sources for other reporting systems or external entities. OBIEE can not handle these data extracts properly as it not designed to work as an "extraction tool". This is what you missed. BO can handle them very well as it was designed as an extration tool in mind.
2) Here you are right if it is all about dimensional model. However here is the difference between OLTP and data warehouse. In data warehouse users should be educated to know conceptual and logical models. BTW you are getting requirements from them and you say they don't know which dims can be pulled with facts and which ones cannot? Wow )) Also OBIEE does allow to pull such dims ( not connected to facts ) using very simple OBIEE modeling technique (level-based measures). That makes OBIEE reporting/analytics very flexible. You are only thinking dimensional. That's very good for an OBIEE developer. But the world is more than just dimensional. You can't answer all reporting requirements with a dimensional model I am afraid. So keep this in mind. A DWH is not the solution to all report requirements just like saying "a truck is the best vehicle in the world because it's big and can transport big loads". BTW have you tried to implement cross-fact analysis in OBIEE? Do you know that you need to set the content level for each non-confirmed dimension in each measure individually or OBIEE will bring back the measure as "NULL"? It's non-sense really, it's too tricky and too flaky.
3) OBIEE has GUI object called PROMPT. There you have full power to force users to apply filters. And you can easily pre-defined your prompt's filter values.Again you missed a key word on my statement: "adhoc users". Prompts are fine but don't exist unless the OBIEE developer creates them in advance, typically in a dashboard. I am talking about ad-hoc here so you know that's Answers. Try to restrict Answers users and force them to put a filter on a column and you will know what I mean. BO can do this in the metadata very easily. OBIEE can't. Prompts are fine (*) but they need to be created in advance by the report developer. (*) Actually they are not that fine, you can't even force them OOTB to use a prompt or not run a dashboard without any values. Sure there are work arounds, but such a basic feature should be part of the product!
4) OBIEE has different concepts of dims hierarchies and visual presentations. Here you are mixing them together. Indeed OBIEE 10g has such a restriction on GUI to have maximum two embedded levels. But it is only visual presentation. In business model you can have N levels of hierarchy and multiple hierarchies in dim . My goodness !!!Do you really think that ORACLE does not follow dimensional modeling ABCs? BTW please check Gartner's magic quadrants. ............BTW did you see OBIEE 11g demo ??????Yes it's only visual presentation, but that's one of the most important things! It's a stupid restriction. If you can have N levels on the BMM why shouldn't you have the ability to prent the data in more levels. Yes, I have seen the magic quadrant and Microsoft is on top of OBIEE (see http://www.gartner.com/technology/media-products/reprints/microsoft/vol2/article15/article15.html). Yes I have seen OBIEE 11g and have running on one of our Dev boxes. It's one of the most buggy releases I have seen in years. Only last week the client tools were released for Windows. How can you have proper ecosystem without proper client tools? No Solaris or HPUX release so it's a partial release. No support for other J2EE web app servers. From our point of view OBIEE 11g is a beta release. We are seating and waiting for Oracle to clean it this mess and get the product stable. And if you think Oracle Support will help read this: http://searchoracle.techtarget.com/news/2240031826/Has-the-phrase-Oracle-Support-become-an-oxymoron
5) Inheritance...Hm, maybe it is simple dimensional modeling concept of supertype/subtype described in any BI/DW books? I am not arguing. maybe BO does it with one click. yeah, convenient enough, but no critical.Consider this problem. You have a large DWH that a large organisation wants to share with different departments which they would then extend adding they own data sources and customise to their own needs. How would you handle changes in the "core" model that need to feed to the different departments metadata stores? RPD merging and MUDE is a mess to be honest, it barely works and it's too prone to human error. Once you worked in a very large project with many OBIEE developers working in different parallel projects you will realise that inheritance is the only sensible solution. I wish Oracle would see this as well. If the metadata was in a database it would have been so much easier...
6) Again just lack of knowledge of dimensional modeling in OBIEE. The one support ALL types of models: snowflakes (3NF) and star. Only what OBIEE requires you cannot have standalone logical table without any relations to at least one another table. Heh...I cannot recall such an example even from Bill Inmon. Regarding 3 layers. This gives you tremendous advantage over BO )) Why? It is long story))You can support all models in dimensional, but should you be forced to use it? 3 layers is not advantage. It's an interesting aproach to solve how you need to model things in OBIEE. You have become too used to it and now think it's the best in the world. It's not, in a relational reporting solution 2 layers are more than enough (physical with all your joins and presentation with all your business names and hierarchies).
8) You I understood you correctly ))))))) None of BI tools today can beat OBIEE on number of supported data sources. I'm just wondering. When you add new column in dim/fact table you DO NOT change your metadata????? My assumption is that BO does always "select * from <table name>"? Yes, then you don't have to change your metadata. The what kind of query BO generates against database??? select d1.*,f1* from dim d1, fact f1...????OK consider this requirement. You work for a top US bank. You have invested $5m in the state-of-the-art DWH with OBIEE that covers every requirement you may even need. The US FED comes in and tells you that it wants one of your excellent reports but filtered for a number of companies. They give the user a spreadsheet with 20k companies that you need to filter you report on. Can any user in OBIEE perform the filtering without any changes in OBIEE? No. In BO you can. End of the argument.
9) That is not true AT ALLYou saying that OBIEE can "merge" two Answers reports and get attributes from both queries in an INNER/OUTER/FULL OUTER fashion? Please show me how, I love to learn from you! (BO indeed can).
10) You r kidding me )) have you forgotten in what time are we living??))) Do you read latest news? By 2016 most of businesses will be in social networks. Everyone wants to be power user holding mobile device in his hands!!!
AND.....OBIEE already DOES it !!!The web client works for 90% of the user population, as said in my comment for real "power users" a fat client approach works best. There browsers are still not powerful enough to handle large data sets. Going back to Gartner's 2011 Quadrant for Business Intelligence Platforms, which you seem to love, I quote from it: "[...] it (Oracle) has lacked innovation around mobile, in-memory, consumerization, interactive visualization and search [...]".
Please forgive me to be so sarcastic. But today the only real advantage BO over OBIEE is PRICE. I would really advise you to look at OBIEE11g. It is almost different product then OBIEE10g.I love sarcasm. Sarcasm is my middle name. But you need to open your mind a bit. OBIEE has taken control of your brain! :-) One solution does not fit all. The world of IT is too big for that...

Report painter performance problem...

I have a client which runs a report group consists of 14 reports... When we run this program... It takes about 20 minutes to get results... I was assigned to optimize this report...
This is what I've done so far
(this is a SAP generated program)...
1. I've checked the tables that the program are using... (a customized table with more than 20,000 entries and many others)
2. I've created secondary indexes to the main customized table with (20,000) entries - It improves the performance a bit(results about 18 minutes)...
3. I divided the report group by 4... 3 reports each report group... It greatly improves the performance... (but this is not what the client wants)...
4. I've read an article about report group performance that it is a bug.
(sap support recognized the fact that we are dealing with a bug in the sap standard functionality)
http://it.toolbox.com/blogs/sap-on-db2/sap-report-painter-performance-problem-26000
Anyone have the same problem as mine?

Report painter/Writer always creates a prerformance issue.i never preffred them since i have a option with Zreport
now you can do only one thing put more checks on selection-screen for filtering the data.i think thats the only way.
