Scheduling a Publication in BI4

Hello
When setting up a Publication, in its Properties there is a section for setting the Recurrence.
However, the Publication does not seem to take note of this property and has to be Scheduled (as per setting up a normal Web Intelligence document) . When going through the Schedule though, it does remember the settings from the Recurrence page of the Publication Properties.
Is this expected behaviour or am I missing something? If it is expected, then why is the Recurrence option in the Publication Properties if it is ignored?
Many Thanks in advance
Cheers
Julian

Can we refer the excellent blogs from Christina with reference to publication to understand the basics and how it works

Hi,
This error messgae occurs when the 'Edit Objects' right is missing for the published reports.
These are the rights required to schedule a publication :
1. Login to CMC with Enterprise Administrative account
2. Navigate to Users and Groups >> Top-level security >> All Users
3. Add the required group/user facing the issue > Advanced > Add/Remove rights > General
4. Grant View objects and Subscribe to objects
5. Navigate to the folder where publication is there > User Security
6. Add/Remove Rights > At General level grant following rights:
- Schedule on behalf of other users
- Modify the rights users have to objects
- Edit objects
- Copy objects to another folder
- Schedule document to run
- Schedule to destinations

Schedule book publication in ASCII files

Hi all,
Is there any way to schedule the extraction of reports to ascii files, using the book publication tool, or any other?
I´m trying to extract some reports using this tool. There is no problem using the "publish now" option, and i´m able to save the .txt files in the right route, but i´ll like to program this action, to be executed automatically in a certain date, every month. Is there any possibility?
Thanks for all,
Alfonso

Hi,
There is an existing functionality inside the Book Publication wizard to schedule a publication, but in fact, you can only generate PDF or HTM files. ASCII generation seems only possible using the "Publish Now" button, and not the "Schedule" button.
By the way, what is the scenario that forces you to generate ASCII files? Would it be possible for you to maybe use the Scheduling area of the Book publication, meaning that you will only have PDF or HTM files generated?
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Patrick

Calling and scheduling existing publication by SDK with promt value

Hi
Context
Calling and scheduling existing publication by SDK with different promt values, included document in publication are Webi.
Issue
I can call and shedule publication with different promp values, however some promts are multivalue with various value count. (For example there is value 111 in first case and values 222 and 333 in second case). Problem is i can fill such a many values how i set in publication by GUI (to understant i can change value but i can;t add/delete another value in one promt).
Here is some example of my code:
IProperties oInfoDocumentsProp = publication.getProcessingInfo().properties().getProperties("SIPROCESSINFO_PER_DOC");
IProperties oInfoDocumentProp = oInfoDocumentsProp.getProperties("1"..."N");
IProperties oWebiPrompts = oInfoDocumentProp.getProperties("SI_WEBI_PROMPTS");
IProperties oWebiPrompt = oWebiPrompts.getProperties("1"... "N");
//to get Values collection
IProperties oWebiPromptValues = oWebiPrompt.getProperties("SI_VALUES");
//to get N value
IProperty oWebiPromptValue = oWebiPromptValues.getProperty(1...N);
//to set prompt value
oWebiPromptValue.setValue("something")
_publication.schedule/save.... .
for now it is good, however when i do this
oWebiPromptValues. add(x,x,x) or oWebiPromptValues.removeLocal(n) it do almost nothing when i look into publicaiton by GUI.
Any idea how to change promt values count ?
Thanks in advance.

Can't Personalize a Publication schedule with Dynamic Recipients

Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1
I am trying to create a publication that will run a crystal report for each of my customers individually. I created a separate crystal report to pull all the customer object IDs from my database that I want to use in the publication. I am having trouble scheduling the publication to run for all of my dynamic recipients once I have the publication created. I take the following steps to create my publication:
1.     General Properties: I enter a title
2.     Source Documents: I add the crystal report that I want run for each one of my customers individually.
3.     Dynamic Recipients: I select my crystal reports instance which contains a column with each of the customer IDs I want the main report run for. I select the customer ID column as the Recipient Identifier and the customer name column as the Full Name.
4.     Personalization: I set the CUSTOMER parameter of the report I want run to the Dynamic Recipient Mapping of customer ID from my dynamic recipient report.
5.     Formats: Set it to Excel
6.     Destination: a directory on my file system
7.     Additional Options => Advanced: Report Bursting method is set to One database fetch per recipient.
8.     I save and close the publication.
Now I right click the publication I just created and click Schedule. This is where I am confused. In the schedule options there is a section for Parameter but not for Personalization. If I try to run the publication without touching the Parameters section I get this error: Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 936 ] (FBE60502) [33 recipients processed.]
It says it tried to process 33 recipients (customers) but failed to retrieved data from the database. It failed to retrieve data from the data because I did enter a parameter when I scheduled the report.
I have also tried scheduling the publications with a parameter entered and it only runs a single report for that single customer I entered in the parameters section.
How to a schedule my publication to run for each one of my dynamic recipients individually?

I understand you need that parameter to get the correct data for each recipient. However the parameter should be 'answered' as part of the setup of personalization. You could try to create a simple report with sections using that ID as a section. Match that ID with the CR containing the dynamic recipient IDs and schedule that report. I would expect you get a single report for each ID. The parameter value should be included as part of your dynamic recipients report!.
Hope this helps...

Publication, Scheduling and Report Bursting

Hi,
what is the main differences between Publication and Scheduling and Report Bursting.
Regards,
G

Hi,
When scheduling a WebI report, you instruct the system to let it run for a certain parameter set at a given time. The result is stored in your system and it called instance.
In a publication you can include more than one reports (several kinds too) and define how and to whom you want to delivered them to. Then you can run/schedule your publication and the content will be delivered as defined at a given point in time.

Error message FBE60013 when scheduling publication

In BOXI 3.1 I've a publication including 62 e-mail recipients. When I run this publication as the user who created the publication, the schedules runs successfully and all 62 recipients receive an instance. However, when I run this publication as another user (who is member of the group Administrators), the schedule fails with the following error:

As a result, only 30 of the 62 recipients receive their instance.
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Marc,
Any update on this? Were you able to resolve?
I am having similar issue...trying scheduling the publication to burst to 2 users and it works ok for 1 user but not the other.
I am getting "Object failed to run due to an error while processing on the Job Server. (FBE60013)" error.

Data Source Missing in Publication

HI experts,
I've got a business objects publication which uses 1 crystal report as the source data and 1 crystal report as the dynamic recipients. When run seperately both these crystal reports work fine but when I try to schedule the publication I keep getting the error message 'Unable to connect. Incorrect logon parameters'.
The source data crystal report uses 2 different data sources and when I look at the database logon parameter within the report I can see them both and they have the correct passwords. When I look at the database logon parameter of the source data within the publication I can only see 1 datasource.
I'm assuming my problem is something to do with the missing datasource but I don't know how to view it within the publication.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Stuart.

Scheduling a web intelligence report with year and month in report name

How to schedule a webi report so that it's name contains the schedule date in format "Reportname_YYYY_MM".I selected the option Date And Time in Formats and destinations tab under scheduling options but it displays system time as well.I need only in the above mentioned format.Can anybody let me know if thisis possible at all?

YOu may want to try to create a publication with dynamic recipients and "abuse" the email or user name of your recipient to pass add the date in the desired format in the name of the instance.
Just use aWebI report as source for the dynamic recipient that displays the current date in the format you want and use this column as the ID of the dynamic recipient.
Check the publication guide for more information on how to create and schedule a publication (I assume oyu are using BO XI 3.1 SP3)

Could you please help me on the abive 3 issues for the WebI schedule reports
Cheers ,
Pradeep Gorpadu

Hi,
While refreshing the WEBI Reports would recommend you check the WEBI PROCESSING Server's last changed date from CMC--> Servers.
Check when you are refreshing the reports, do you see the time stamp changed of WEBI PROCESSING servers?
Do you keep getting this error messages for all WEBI reports? Can you re-produce this with simple e-fashion reports as well?
After that go to the node where WEBI PROCESSING servers installed and check on the event viewer details if you see any relevant error messages.

How to embed reports in an email using Scheduler

Hi all,
I am using the "schedule" option in a webi report to deliver a report through email in pdf format. However, our end users want the report data to be embedded in an email rather than as an attachment. We are using BO XI 3.1. I tried searching in google for more than a day and couldnt get any relevant info. Could someone please let me know if it possible to embed report data in an email ? If so, could you please share your notes.
thanks
Joe.

Hi,
Scheduling a webi document does not give the option to embed the report in mail body.
However, this is possible while scheduling a publication. You can create a publication for the webi report and schedule it with format mhtml to email. Please refer to the publication guide for details.

Publications fail intermittently on XI 3.1

Hello,
We have publications that fail intermittently with the error:
An exception was caught while scheduling the publication. (FBE60203) or

The publication log also invarably contains Unable to reconnect to the CMS xxx.ny2.xxx.net:6400. The session has been logged off or has expired. (FWM 01002).
The publications are scheduled as follows:
1. A program object is scheduled to kick off the publication. This program object passes values to the prompts in the publication at run time.
2. The publications are scheduled as MHTML files to an FTP server.
3. The publications are based on different tabs in Webi report

2009-01-26 18:45:28,028 INFO [pool-4-thread-7] BusinessObjects_PublicationAdminLog_Instance_126761 - [Publication ID # 126761] - Publication scheduling complete.
Once a publication fails, the only method to ensure success is to:
1. Restart the CMS, Publication Job Server and Webi Processing Server
2. Recreate the publication (remove the source, add it again)
As an aside, I've had cases open twice before for the same issue. I closed them both because I can't replicate on demand (we were on XI3.0 RTM at that point).
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks.

Mike,
I still have the case open with support on this. While I am (still) unsure as to which session has logged off, support suggested that I do the following:
Add
-requesttimeout 3600000 on following servers.
1.CMS
2.Webi Processing Server.
3.Adaptive job Server.
4.Publication Job server.
5.Input Server.
This seems to have done the job, at least for now. I am still testing though.
If your publication does fail with such an error, restarting the SIA could be a temporary solution.
Let me know if you need anything else.
Best,
Srinivas
