Reporting Agent - Exceptions

I am working on setup on Exceptions in the reporting agent. I want to do both email alerts as well as alert monitor alerts. I have reviewed the SAP Library and there isn't much there to assist you in why what has been setup is not working. Does anyone know of a detailed guide on how to setup exceptions in the reporting agent or can anyone assist me in doing so?
Thank you.

Exception ( in Reporting Agent ) background job runs indefinitely

Hi
I created an Exception setting under reporting agent (to send out a mail in the SAP Office inbox, on a specific exception) and assigned it under a scheduling package.
I have assigned a proper query variant to the exception setting also.
When I exeucte the job, it goes indefinitely.
I highly appreciate if somebody can help what needs to be done to fix this.
Thanks

Hi,
If you choose the Precalculate by User option, all the data and HTML pages for the Reporting Agent setting are precalculated for each of the selected users in a single job. This applies in both the cases: Roles or users. When you specify a role after selecting the option 'Precalculate by User', the precalculation will be done for all the users assigned to that role and not the role.
Roles/Users is just 2 different ways of giving the user restriction. If you specify the roles, the system will precalculate for all the users assigned to the role. If you have few users for whom you want the precalculation to be done, then you can specify the user IDs. If you have many users assigned to a particular role for whom you want the precalculation to be done, then you can specify the role.

Not able to see negative exception in reporting agent setting.

Hello Gurus,
I created a query with exceptions on top of a multi-provider. This multi-provider is built on top of a DSO and a remote cube.
Exceptions is the query
1. range from -1,00,00,000 to -0.1
2. range from 1 to 1,00,00,000.
When I created a reporting agent setting for this query, i was able to see the positive exception but not negative. Please help me regarding this.
thanks,
Aarthi.

Hello Aarthi,
Have you checked the dataprovider contains the negative values.
Do a list Cube on the multiprovider and confirm it.
Have you defined single exception for both or seperate exception. If 2 then check whether exception is active?
Thanks

Column 1 contains only the variable for the fiscal year

In the reporting agent setting I added the control query to the web template and creadet a variant for the control query. when I schedule this package i receive a short dump, saying "raise exception".
Can someone explain me how i have to handle this kind of variables within the reporting agent ?
We use BW 30B / SP20.

Use of the Export while creating Exceptions in the Reporting Agent

hi all,
can anyone let me know how the Follow Up Action "Export" is used while creating Exceptions under the Reporting Agent.
I understand that for the data that was precalculated to be used as a work item in a customer Workflow, it first needs to be exported using the business Add Ins (SE19). i have created the Business add In "RSRA_ALERT" and have also set a filter according to the InfoArea and activated it.
But once, the package is scheduled and completed, wherefrom will i check the result and how do i check whether that data has been exported or not.
Kindly let me know at the earliest.
Thanks & regards

Follow Up Actions - Reporting Agent

Hi BW Gurus,
I would like to know what are following up action is available in Reporting Agent
Thank You

Hi Luis,
There are 4 steps.
1) Send Mail- alerts user by e-mail; for example you can send e-mail saying sales qty target were missed
2) Alert Monitor entry - view results in the alert monitor; you can also give an URL for the alert monitor
3) Export - Send Data to a work flow for follow up action
4) RRI Interface - if an exception happens you can jump to another query for a more detailed display using Go To option

Send mail as follow-up action in reporting agent

I need to send a mail with the exceptions flaoting from a query. I tried to use the follow-up action of 'send mail' in the reporting agent. that didnt work because in our SAP we're not using the exchange connector and mails cannot be sent in the regular way.
I have an external command of sending mail.
Does anyone has a way of solving this problem, meaning, using my external command of sending mail in order to send the mail with the exceptions (this command works just fine in process chains, for example, for notification of process progress)
Thank You,
Yoav.

Output from Reporting Agent in BW is inconsistent

Hi,
I have created a scheduled package of print type in reporting aget. The job runs successfully but once I check the spool in SM37, the output is not corrrect.
First it writes only characteristics and then below that it writes key figures. Both Char and Key Figures do not come in one line.
Not sure where have I gone in creating this scheduling package in reporting agent.
Any help is most welcome.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
You can define threshold values (exceptions) for a query. Data that varies from these thresholds is highlighted in color or marked with icons. You can use these exceptions to identify deviations from expected results at a glance.
Defining and Changing Exceptions
1. In the Exceptions screen area, choose New Exception in the context menu. An entry with the default text Exception <Number> appears and you can edit the description directly.
2.In the context menu, choose Edit. The exception editor appears; it displays the relevant parts for the definition on tab pages.
You can also call the exception editor from the Properties screen area by choosing the Edit pushbutton.
3.      Make the required settings for the definition of the exception. For more information, see Definition of Exceptions.
4.      Choose OK. You return to the query definition.
5.      Choose Save Query.
Removing Exceptions from Queries
       1.      In the Exceptions screen area, select the relevant exception and choose Remove in the context menu.
       2.      Choose Save Query.
Result
You have defined or changed an exception for a query. Execute the query. The exception is evaluated online. The cell areas that are affected by the exception appear highlighted in the appropriate color or, where applicable, with icons in Web applications.
You can display the exception descriptions and activate or deactivate the exceptions you want.

Problem with "subject" & "recipient list" of reporting agent

Hi,
I've created an exception in a query & assigned "E-mail notification" for this exception in reporting agent. I entered "Subject" field and assigned "distribution list" to "Recipient list" field in the e-mail notification attributes.
After transporting, reporting agent & package, everything moved fine but subject & recipient fields are not carried over to Quality system. both the fields are blank.
What is the problem?
How do I make sure that these 2 fields are also transported to Quality & Production rather than manually maintaining them again in the target system.
Appreciate any help.

Reporting Agent - Alert Views & Alert Details repeating twice

Hi All,
I have configured reporting agent settings for a BW Query. The exceptions will be communicated through email. The email has been configured to output Alert Views & Alert Details. However when we recieve the email, the alert views, details as well as the URL is repeating twice. Is there a way to correct this issue. Also URL sometimes is not full, it truncates for some reason. Please advise.
Thanks a ton.

Hi,
Reporting agent is available and can be used in BI 7.0 with running reporting_agent transaction but SAP recommends to use information broadcasting instead reporting agent.
Note that you can only use the Reporting Agent if you are working with queries and Web templates in the SAP BW 3.x format.As of SAP NetWeaver 7.0, the Reporting Agent functions are covered by Information Broadcasting.

The role of Reporting agent once we have BEx Broadcaster

Hi all,
I understand the BEx broad caster does the pre calculation of Web template, distribution by various mechanisms...So in this context, how and when Reporting agents will be necessary ? Can any one give the differences between those two ??
best regs
D Bret

Dave,
For some time both will be needed. It is true that some things Reporting Agent did, send a report, BEx Broadcaster does better. But certain Reporting Agent features have not migrated yet. Here's how to think about it: If you want to run a query and store the data in a table for later use, you still need Reporting Agent. This covers priming the OLAP cache, Web template precalculation, pre-run Exceptions, etc.
If you want to present these query results, the means have moved to BEx Broadcaster. That's emailing a workbook, emailing a query result or a link, publishing in the Portal.
(Not) Coincidentally, the first set of features are mostly or exclusively ABAP-based and the second set is based on NetWeaver Java WAS.
Hope this helps,

Use reporting agent to run and e-mail a query to users

Hi All,
I have a requirement where, I have to use reporting agent to precalculate a BW query and then broadcast the result to e-mail addresses.
Is there any way I can do this?
Please any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Reddy

Hi Reddy,
take a look here...
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/1a/615f64816311d38b170000e8284689/frameset.htm
the only thing you have to do (in addition to the normal procedure described here) is to set an exception always true (in order to have always your follow-up action, that is the mail to your users !)
