Scaling in reports BPC5 Versus BPC7NW

I copied the BPC5.1 reports and using in BPC7NW.
Though all 5.1 reports are working after copying to BPC 7NW ..some reports are having issues with scaling. In 5.1 reprots the scaling is defined in reports in the 'scaling control' property in reports 'Control Panel' to show in 1000's. It was working well with BPC5.1 systems. Whe the reports are copied to BPC7NW the same scaling property is not working.
Is there any difference between 5.1 vs 7nw for the scaling control?
Please share your experience ,opinion...

Performance: Reports Builder versus Running on mid tier report server.

Folks are wondering why a report takes 15 minutes when running on the middle tier report server, paper layout, pdf output displayed via adobe, versus running the paper layout from a laptop within Reports Builder.
Any thoughts about the performance differences we now face with the 3 tier set up or suggestions on what we might tweak?

hello,
unfortunately your post did not specify what the difference in performance is and whether you are connecting to the same database and what platform your deployment environment as oppsed to your dev environment is.
there are certainly some performance differences expected if the depoloyment platform is significantly different from the development paltform, but those differences should not be significant.
there are certain things that might cause performance differences (e.g. graphs in reports, using DISPLAY vs. DEFAULT_DISPLAY on unix platforms, etc.) so knowing a bit more about your platform would be helpful.
also it would be interesting to know if you see a similar degredation with other reports or even the test.rdf that comes with the product. last, but not least, have you tried to deploy your report to the OC4J that comes with the developer suite ? if so, do you see timings similar to the builder or more to your app server execution times ?
thanks,

Wrong font scaling after Report exported2pdf?

Hi,
I'm trying to export a DIAdem report as PDF-document, but the Font is scaled wrong on my machine, because the width of the font is too big.
By the way, I'm using DIAdem 11.0(German). Furthermore I tried to export my report on another machine and surprisingly the font was scaled appropriate.
However it doesn't make a difference which font I'm using because every font is scale wrong.
Attached you can find the PDF with bad scaling.
What could be the reason for that behavior? Are there any special settings?
I would be happy about some hints on that issue.
thx

Hi Brad,
First of all, thank you for the quick feedback.
I'm exporting the PDF interactively.
Enclosed you find a picture showing the differences in the Font scaling.
The top picture shows the PDF I exported on my machine (a laptop-computer with Windows XP SP2/DIAdem 11.0) which delivers the wrong scaling.
The picture below shows the way how the PDF should look like, hopefully you can see the slight difference. The correct PDF I've exported on my colleagues machine (Desktop machine with Windows XP SP2/DIAdem 11.0).
Anyway, I don't have a glue what could be the reason for this behavior.
If you need any further files please let me know.
Many Thanks

Reporting Agent versus Query

Hi,
I run a query in the BEx by selecting 2 cost centers A and B and I receive both results.
When I execute the job with the reporting agent I receive only the first cost center.
How can I debug this ? Any idea what could be the reason ?
Thanks for your help,
IE

Hi Adem,
The query gives the expected results.
The problem is that the reporting agent doesn't give the result of one cost center. I use the reporting agent to print the results of the query.
Cost centers are given as a selection in the query.
Any idea ?
Thanks,

Report Painter versus ABAP Report

Hi everyone:
Can someone tell me what are pros and cons of developing OR Running reports in Report Painter?
Secondly can someone tell me when should one develop reports in ABAP and when should one develop reports in Report Painter?
Thanks in advance
R

Almost the entire SAP R3 System is written in ABAP u2013 including the Report Painter.
The Report Painter is a tool for the end user to create evaluation reports without having to involve the IT Department. He therefore has the information he requires within the limitations of the Report Painter very quickly. No programming involved.
An ABAP Report has to be written by a programmer/developer. It takes much longer, has to be tested, and, when everything is okay, be transported into the production system. This is time consuming and expensive. The report may have to modified at a later date u2013 again by a programmer/developer, which in turn also costs more time and money. A report created using the Report Painter can be modified or created immediately by the end user, i.e. low costs, immediate results.
I hope this clarifies the matter.

2D X axis Scaling on Reports

HI,
My time data comes in using the system time from the computer and does not start at zero. It is often starting at 3000 sec or 6240 sec, etc..
When I run my report I am constantly having to change the beginning and end times in order to capture the data. I came up with a partial solution to my problem, but am still running into one issue. Some of the report pages have 2 2Dgraphs on them, and others only have 1 2Dgraph. With the solution I have found, I can change all the report pages that have 2 graphs, but as soon as I hit one that only has 1 graph it throws an error. I'm sure that there is an IF statement I can use, but have been unable to get one to really work.
I have tried using ObjectNoMax and I have tried using "2DAxis1" instead of ("Area : 1"), but I still can't figure it out. Can someone please help?
Dim intSheetNo
Call GraphSheetInfos() 'Puts the number of sheets in GraphSheetCount

So I tried adding a line after 107:
108    If D2AxisXObj (n) = "" Then Exit For

Scaling in Report

Hi Experts,
I have a column whose scaling is supposed to be in millions, but among this column, it is required that one of the rows (this is a formula) should be in percentage and scaling factor of 1. I have tried to change the properties of the row to be as follows:
Scaling Factor: 1
Number of Decimal Places: 0.0
Calculate Result As: Nothing Defined
Calculate Single Values As: Nothing Defined
Formula Collision: Nothing Defined
And properties of the column to be as follows:
Scalign Factor: 1000000
Number of Decimal Places: 0
Calculate Result As: Nothing Defined
Calculate Single Values As: Nothing Defined
Formula Collision: Nothing Defined
However, it still shows scaling factor of 1000000 in the row instead of 1. I have tried to define 'Formula Collision: Result from this formula' in the row but it does not work.
Pls Help!!!
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have figured out the error.. The properties in the column shld be:
Scaling Factor: (From Key Figure: 1,000)
Number of Decimal Places: (From Key Figure: 0.00)..
Hope this will help any1 who might be having the same prob.

Crystal Reports 20087 Versus CRXI R2

Hello there
I currently deploy Crystal XI R2 in a thick client vb.Net application. I am considering upgarding to Crystal 2008.
Can anyone tell me if CR 2008 is any faster in terms of loading the runtime viewer objects and in terms of report processing than previous version CR XI R2?
Also does anyone know if there plans for an update CR 2008 because it does seem quite old now?
If anyone can give me any info on the above I would really appreciate it?
Thanks
Kerrin

Hi, Kerrin;
There have been some improvments made with CR 2008 in terms of processing and loading speed. But, every situation is different, so you may want to try the Evaluation version from our site to see if it makes a difference for you or not:

I do not have any information regarding future products, but keep an eye on our web site for updates.

2D Axis Scaling Bug in Reports (DIAdem 2014)

Hello,
I've run across a rarther annoying bug in the 2D axis scaling for Reports. Here's how to recreate it:
Load a dataset that has x and y components.
Create a new layout in the Report tab
On Sheet1, add a Simple 2D Axis System.
Select x and y from the dataset and drag it into the 2D axis system.
Change the scaling mode from "Completely Automatic" to "Manual."
Change the "Begin" number to something close to the default DIAdem has set. Do not touch the "End" number. Click OK.
Add Sheet2 and repeat steps #3 thru #6 on Sheet2 with a different dataset.
Both plots look good right now...
Go to Sheet2 and double click on the chart to bring up the Curve and Axis Definition.
Don't touch anything...just click "Cancel."
After clicking Cancel, the scaling of the 2D axis completely changes. I believe what happens is that DIAdem takes whatever the previous "End" number was and uses that instead of the "End" number you want. Also, you don't actually have to go into the Curve and Axis Definition to create this bug. Press cancel while editing anything like text (for example)...bye bye plot.
Moreover, if I go back in and set the scaling mode back to Auto, click preview to refresh the plot, then switch the mode to Manual, everything looks good. However, if I copy Sheet2, the plot on Sheet2_Copy1 is messed up the same way as if I hit Cancel but Sheet2 is OK.
Worst of all, the undo function does not work on this unwanted scaling change.
This is a bug that makes plots in the Report files almost unusable. I hope this is re-producable on other systems so a patch can be issued. Let me know what you find.
The only workaround I've found is to click OK instead of Cancel, which isn't always preferred.
Thanks,
Jacob

The feature: "Report part gallery" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.

Struggling trying to get off the ground on same basic reporting functionality - I have a report that basically just dumps out the contents of a table for now. When I attempt to publish the report, I get "The feature: "Report part gallery"
is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services." for both the single param I am trying to define for the report and the Tablix report part. What
can I do with this version of Reporting Services? Ultimately, I need to create a few very simple reports and then be able to display them in a UI developed in Visual Studio 2013 via a Web Form. It seems that Visual Studio 2013 does not
offer a report viewer so that is another issue entirely (hoping the one for 2011 will work). I am just trying to design and publish a few simple reports right now and can't even get past that right now.

Hello,
What's the version and edition of SSRS did you used?
Report Part Gallery is only available in Standard Edition and above. If you using SSRS express edition, you can try to create a subreport which ccontain the Tablix report part content, and then add the subreport in other reports to meet the similar requirement.
You can refer to the following blog about compare Subreport with Report Part.
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2314/ssrs-report-parts-versus-sub-reports-faq/
As for display SSRS report in Visual Studio, you can using the ReportViewer controls in Visual Studio.

Custom Report: Actuals paid by Fiscal Year- multiple Columns

Has anyone created a "time-scaled" InfoMaker report using "actuals paid"? We would like to create a report that shows actual payments made on each project broken down by fiscal year... so a single project may show actuals paid for FY 07-08, FY 08-09, and FY 09-10.. so "Actuals" would appear 3 times on the same report- based, on the approval date.
I know that P6 can do this quite easily, but we are not linking CM to P6 schedule yet.

Yes, I've created many reports of this nature including building a table that can be used to select a specific period for reporting on a given range. Have created these reports in several formats including tabular, crosstab, and graphical (and combinations of those).

How to invoke a report by name instead of ID?

Hello,
We have developed several shared reports which are invoked from other applications. In Active Studio we select the Report and use "Copy Shortcut" option in left menu to get a web link such this:
http://work/oraclebam/ReportServer/default.aspx?Event=ViewReport&ReportDef=4&Buttons=False
We have two environments: a development and production. We are exporting reports in development and importing in production (using icommand), but ids change everytime, so the parameter above (ReportDef) is not the same as before and we have to re-custom all apps again. The problem is we have several (200+) reports and takes a long time to update all reports, tests and so on.
Any idea if is possible calling a report by name instead of ID?
Thank you too much,
Rogério

Hi All
1. In ORABAM Schema, all the Report details are stored in Tables like SysIterReport, SysIterDataset, SysIterParameter, SysIterParameterValue.
2. Most important Table is SysIterReport. It has "SysIterName" which is Report full name with full path like "/public/Report/MyXyzApp/MyXyzReport1" and "SysIterID". This SysIterID is the Report ID.
3. So simple Query above table to get all the SysIterIDs for the matching SysIterName. From returned rows, simple extract last part of the name which is like unique Report name. Now you have a mapping of Report Name versus the Report Id from that OraBAM Schema in that Environment like Qc, UAT or production.
Select SysIterID, SysIterName from SysIterReport where SysIterName like '%MyXyzApp%'.
4. I would recommend to create like separate folders for separate bpm projects deployed on same domain. And put that application specific data objects and reports in that folder itself.
From Java side very simple. On BPM Domain with Oracle BAM configuration, you already have a DataSource that connects to ORABAM Schema by name "BAMDataSource-jdbc.xml" under config/jdbc folder. This XML File has all orabam schema details and also JNDI Name like "jdbc/oracle/bam/adc". Write a simple Java Program. Do JNDI lookup using this datasource name. And from that get connection object. Run above query and get rows back. Build a simple WebPage, and build a dynamic URL as shown below. BamServer host and BamServer Port can be put in a properties file to make it more dynamic. And each environment will have .properties file with those details. Or simple put the below URL as it is which is different for each environment.
http://bamserverhost:bamserverport/OracleBAM/reportserver/default.jsp?Event=viewReport&ReportDef=
In the Java code, simple get above url and append the ReportId. And on UI for each URL, show the Report Name. Simple speaking, once you get Rows from SysIterReport table, on java side create a HashMap with ReportName and ReportLink (generated as shown above). And on UI, loop through this Map and show name and link.
One final thing. If the Java code is deployed to SOA_Server, make sure that the BAMDatasource is deployed to SOA Server also. By default BAMDataSource is targetted only to BAM Server. But java code or ui code is on Soa server. So simple target bam data source to soa source also from Weblogic Console.
This will WORK and I have already done this. Users will see more user friendly Links on my Task Details page. And clicking on them takes them to the BAM Reports.
Thanks

Batch report of indesign docs

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a solution for this scenario:
I have about 2,000 indesign documents and I need to insure that horizontal/verticle scaling is not applied to any of the text inside text boxes. Is there anything that can interegate a folder full of indesign files and create a report with that (and whatever else) information.
Regards, Tim

Hi Tim,
As far as I know, there's no such a script. But it can be written.
Here is a sample script to get you started:
tell application "Finder"
     set TheFolder to choose folder
     set TheFilelist to files in TheFolder whose name ends with ".indd"
end tell
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
     set user interaction level of script preferences to never interact
     repeat with Doc in TheFilelist
          tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3" to open Doc
          set CurrentDocument to active document
          tell CurrentDocument
               set DocName to name
               set ScaledText to (every text of every text frame whose horizontal scale is not 100 or vertical scale is not 100)
               if (count ScaledText) is not equal to 0 then
                    set TheText to DocName & " - has " & ((count ScaledText) as string) & " scaled items" & return
                    my write_to_file(TheText, true)
               end if
               close saving no
          end tell
     end repeat
     set user interaction level of script preferences to interact with all
     beep 3
     display dialog "Finished" giving up after 5
end tell
on write_to_file(this_data, append_data)
     try
          set the log_file to (path to desktop as text) & "Scaled Text Report.txt" as text
          set the open_target_file to open for access file log_file with write permission
          if append_data is false then set eof of the open_target_file to 0
          write this_data to the open_target_file starting at eof
          close access the open_target_file
          return true
     on error
          try
               close access file log_file
          end try
          return false
     end try
end write_to_file
I tested it on a bunch of very simple documents, so I'm not sure if it would work for you -- this is just an illustration of my idea.
The script, at start, offers to choose a folder with indesign files. Then it opens every document, without showing errors (missing fonts, links, etc.), checks for scaled text, if it's found, it writes a line into Scaled Text Report.txt file created on the desktop, e.g.:
SomeFile.indd - has 7 scaled items
Finally it closes the document without saving
Although I prefer JavaScript, for this script, I would chose AppleScript, because a single line can find all scaled text in a document:
set ScaledText to (every text of every text frame whose horizontal scale is not 100 or vertical scale is not 100)
BTW, you don't say which version of InDesign you are using, which platform you are on -- it's important to know.
Regards,
Kasyan

Jasper Reports Alternative

I need to determine the Crystal Reports version that is an equivalent to Jasper Reports.
We need to implement a very scaled down reporting component of an existing j2EE application. This component is to produce .pdf reports on the screen that are available for printing. These are not statistical reports and are infact part of the workflow contained within the application. We address similar requirements in another application with Jasper reports but have been told to use Crystal for this application.
Might someone be able to lend some light on which version would be most applicable?
And, yes, that's correct, I'm not a developer.
Thx!

Go for the latest Crystal Reports 2008.

Variance between KE30 (COPA) Balance versus GL Balances (GR55)

Hi all,
Would you know what are the main causes of the variances between COPA Report (KE30) versus GL Balance (GR55)? How to avoid it? I've been encountering this for the past months. How to resolve also the variances? Thank you in advance.

Hi,
It is not necessary in costing based COPA for FI and COPA to be equal. It basically depends on your
customizing. In SD you map the value fields to condition types in tcode KE4I (there is no 1:1 mapping to
a cost element). In FI/MM you have a PA transfer structure. Here you could have a cost element group
mapped to a single value field or different assignment lines posting to the same value field. So again
there need not be a 1:1 mapping.
The cost element is not filled in CO-PA when transferring values from SD. The reason is that we transfer
several conditions (each condition can be assigned to a different cost element) with one line item to COPA.
So it would not make sense to choose any of the affected cost elements by chance to the line item
as the line item stands for several cost elements. Also in SD only cost elements of category 11 and 12
are relevant to CO-PA.
At time of settlement you can post the values from different cost elements to different CO-PA value
fields, but in one line item in CO-PA. The idea of costing based COPA is to describe the meaning of
values with different value fields and not with the cost element. Therefore the system maps original cost
elements to CO-PA value fields and this leads to the fact that we summarize over the cost elements.
Since costing based CO-PA does not use cost element as a key, but the different value fields, there is a
summarization through the technical field KSTAR in CO-PA. Therefore, the field KSTAR in CO-PA
makes only sense if you deliver only one cost element to CO-PA. This means that we have only space
for one cost element (one flat CE1 line is assigned to several lines from the sender distinguished by cost
element), but since one could have several cost elements during the settlement we can take only one
(the first or the last one - as described in note 763516).
Due to the reasons mentioned above please check if it is really necessary to reconcile G/L accounts
with value fields in KE30.
regards
Waman
