Scheduling a Report as Mail in 10g / 9i

Hi,
I am able to successfully schedule a report in 10g R2 for options file outputs. But in case of a Mail i am not able to do so. When ever i do that i am not able to get mails in regular intervals because of some authentication. On seeing the error message it seems Oracle Reports doesnt supports sending mail with authentication. I.e if our SMTP Mail server is configured with network authentication the mail doesnt gets generated as scheduled but the report output is getting generated in the cache directory.
Is there any way to crack this issue.
Thanks in advance

Scheduled Webi Reports Don't Open on iOS's MS Exchange Mail

Hi all,
I am not sure if this is the right place to write this post but I will try anyway.
We are using BO 4.0 SP6 and schedule webi reports as attached xlsx of pdf in e-mails.The problem is that the attached pdf's and excel files don't open right away in iPhone's native mail application when using MS Exchange. A tiny question mark shows up on the top corner of the attachment and when you tap on it, it asks which application to use to open it. We can choose iBooks app for example to view the file. We would like the attachment to open right away as we tap on it as it does usually.
Here are some test results:
-We have observed this issue on iOS 8. However, there are rumors that it started with iOS 7. Same rumors suggest that it would work fine before iOS 7.
-We use iOS' native mail application with a MS Exchange account set up.
-We have also tested it with a gmail account set up next to the exchange account. The attachment opened with no problem.
-If someone forwards the mail received from the BO server, to another exchange mail, the attachment opens just fine.
-We have no problem opening other exchange mails with attachments on mobile.
We suspect, the exchange mail can't confirm the sender address thus can't trust the attachment if it is really a pdf-excel file. So we tried scheduling the webi report with a valid mail address in the sender information box but it didn't work.
Has anyone came across such a problem?
I know this issue involve SAP, Apple and Microsoft and each one will point the other for the blame. But any help will be appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Emre,
Though this appears on Mobile, this belongs to Webi Product team. As the schedule of Webi reports and the email output would be controlled by them. They can work with Apple to identify the cause and fix the defect. Hence, you can post your question in SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence
I would also recommend that you contact Webi Product Support through the official channel http://support.sap.com/incident

Hi Christian.
You could put the lines of your list in a table of type SOLISTI1 and then use the function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 to send the content of this table. You have to fill the table RECEIVERS with the address you want to send the report to.
Hope that helps,

How to stop a Scheduler Job in Oracle BI Publisher 10g

Hello!
Can someone tell me how can I stop a scheduler job in Oracle BI Publisher 10g?
I scheduled a bursting job to run a report but is running during two days.
I would like to stop it.
Thanks.
Edited by: SFONS on 19-Jan-2012 07:16

Unfortunately there is no way to stop a job once it is being executed. Yes as you read, it is not possible once job has started.
Same thing applies for running queries.
Once queries are sent to the DB BIP loses control over them. The message you see (if any) "Click Here to Cancel" does not stop any query
it is just a message.
I guess you will have to stop/kill the process in your DB

Scheduling a Report to Deliver As an Email Attachment

Hi,
I want to schedule a Report to Deliver As an Email Attachment. But I am getting the below error.

But I did not do the steps mentioned in the above link. Since I have email server configured on my system.
I am using the proper Host name and Port. Can you please suggest why I am getting this error.
Thanks,
Shiva

Not really the best way to go. You'll waste a lot of time and it may not work for your receiver. Most email hosts have file size limits that make emailing video files a problem. Better choice is upload you video to YouTube or some other file sharing site then email a link.

WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds parti

WebI does not return failed when scheduling a report which only holds partial results.
We have scheduled reports which take some time to run. When they are scheduled they sometimes show successful even though the report only holds partial results. The only indication is when you open the report as webi report you see the warning that it holds partial results.
When running the report manually, it works file.
The issue is not in the no of rows in the universe settings because we this unselected. The issue is that it times out.
The reason that it times out is that a lot of resources are used for loading and processing data when the report is scheduled. When running it manually, it works because at this time the serverload is less. the time in the universe is set to 10 min.
The version we have is BOXIR2-SP4.
Ok. Issue identified.
The question is - why is the report successful when it holds partial results? If this is normal behavior, noone can really trust the scheduled reports, especially when you save it to excel and send it by mail.
Is there a solution for this except increasing the allowed query time which would not solve the issu but only allow more reports to complete?

Hi ,
Currently this problem exists in XI R2. This feature will be part of thenext Service Pack i.e XI R2 SP6.
This CER will be delivered from IDC Webi and BIP Platform as part of Jupiter Sp6.
Problem Statement:
Scheduled WebI Reports which are partially refreshed are distributed to the destinations for Users to View and make decisions. These users arenu2019t usually aware that these reports have u201CPARTIAL RESULTSu201D
Recomended Solution:
Allow the Schedule Creator / Modifier to set a parameter to stop the distribution of the u201CPARTIALLY REFRESHEDu201D WebI report.

Schedule Approval Reports

Hi All,
Please clarify the doubts,
In Content Management -> Reports -> Approval Maintenance Reports, how to schedule the reports and how to make it to run. When I create a schedule, do I need to start that ? If I start the schedule the newly generated report is running, but when I click on the Running Reports, there are no reports are shown and also if I navigate to some other page and again visit to the same page the running report is stopped automatically even though I scheduled to repeat on every hour.
Once the reports are generated how to send these reports through mail for hourly basis automatically.
Thanks in Advance,

Hi All,
I got the answer and it worked for me:-
1. If the BI Scheduler cannot ping the mail server specified in the scheduler configuration, check the correct server is specified. If it is, check that it is up and running.
2. If the user name and password are specified in the scheduler configuration, log in to Enterprise Manager and navigate to:
Weblogic Domain
Right click on bifoundation_domain > Security > Credentials
Expand oracle.bi.enterprise
Highlight mail.server and delete the user name and password..
Thanks & regards

Schedule Crystal Reports

There are a range of crystal reports written in version 11.5 . Some access SAP tables, others access Lotus Notes tables via ODBC drivers.
There is a requirement to schedule some reports to run monthly.
Is there a means of scheduling reports? Can the resulting listings be e-mailed to users?

Depends. You have at least two options (Ido may have others related to 3rd party software).
As you mentioned, BOE or BI is an option.
So is SAP Crystal Reports Server (CRS).
The above will depend on the loads you are expecting. Think of CRS as a light version of BOE. As far as sizing, etc.; you're best to talk to sales who can then recommend the best product for your needs. Sales ph: 866-681-3435

Possible to publish and schedule custom reports in DPM console?

Hello
I've made a slight adjustment to the Tape Management (MediaDetails) report using Report Builder and saved it to the report server creatively named MediaDetails2.
It does not show up in the DPM console, Is this possible?
I would also like to schedule this Report to be sent via email at a regular intervals just like the built-in reports.
DPM 2012 R2 UR4
Thanks

Hi
I don't think it's possible to have it show up on the DPM console, however you can subscribe to the report and have it mailed like other DPM reports.

3. Scheduler is OK when we schedule reports to Inbox
Any suggestion will be highly appreciable.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards

Make sure that
1. the destination email address is correct.
2. the mailbox is not bouncing.
Check scheduling the report to another valid email address and see that the error repeats or not.

Scheduled webi reports fail, why? If I restart BO services they work again

Hello.
I'm having a problem with my scheduled Webi reports and I don't know what is causing it. I have some reports scheduled to run at 8:00 am, and are supposed to be sent to a determined e-mail. Last week it worked well and the reports were sent to their destination successfuly, then this week the same reports didn't reach their destination. I verified in the History option and all of them showed a Failed status. I checked the detail and this is what it shows:
Unexpected exception caught. Reason: [java.lang.NullPointerException: i_statusInfo is null.]
If I try to reschedule these reports or any other report or a new report I get the same error. The only way I can make the schedule option work again for my webi reports is restarting BusinessObjects services.
But I guess this is not the right solution.
What can I do? How can I determine what is causing my scheduled webi reports fail?
What does this java.lang.NullPointerException: i_statusInfo is null message mean?
Is there a way I could track the service that is failing? which BO service is the service that manage the Schedule reports?
Any help is welcome.
