Scheduling with AO Workbook - changing prompt values

I saved and AO workbook on the BI platform, scheduled and executed. The query has month and year prompts filled by exit variables. I change the user exit for a different month year. I schedule the workbook on the BI platform, but the workbook still has the same month & year when it was saved. Is the expected result?

According to the blog, prompts are not yet supported with scheduling.

Prompt Values are duplicated when using the schedule option

Hi,
I'm working on a Windows Server 2003 XI 3.1 FP1.6 environment and have noticed that there are some Crystal Reports that when scheduled in the CMC, the prompt values are duplicated. When I delete the duplicate values and click Save, even more duplicate copies show up. I've run the report with the duplicate values and it seems to return fine, but it's odd that it's creating so many copies of the parameter values.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this? It only happens on a small set of reports, the other reports in the environment do not do this.

Hi John,
My recommendation would be to switch over to the concurrent licences. What should happen when you try to set more than 5 users as named users is that Enterprise should throw an error and say that you already have 5 named users.
So if you do somehow manage to set all 350 users to be named even though you only have 5 licenses - then yes, that would be breaking licensing. While with 5 concurrent, you can set them all to be concurrent and not have to worry about it.

Report is not getting refreshed after changing prompts once again?

HI,
I am running some webi and deski reports using webi sdk also i'm handling the prompts of
report.
Problem is that if i ran the parametrized webi or deski report then my application shows the prompt page
then i fill all the prompt for the report it shows the data for selected prompt values.
But if i once again changed prompt values it shows data of previously selected prompt values not for
the currently changed prompt values. means reports not getting refreshed.
sometimes its work correctly.
What will be problem?
How can i resolve this issues?
Please help me
Thanks in advance

The workflow is:
1. Refresh
2. Set Prompts
3. Get View.
then repeat.
Are you refreshing before setting prompts?

Conditional Scheduling of report with Prompt values

Hi All,
My requirement is that I select some values in the dashboard prompt and get the report. Is there any methodlogy to schedule that report with having data in report according to
set prompt values on the fly that is dynamically.
We can a link below the report to schedule it but how can we pass the condition parameters? Please help.

Hi Kishore,
Thanks very much for the reply. It answers one part of the question.
I am thinking to put a text property or button below the report and is it possible to attach the report values with current prompt selection and the request is attached to the in delivery content section which means user need not pick up the delivery content only he has to schedule current report only by clicking the link or button? Can I have script for that.
To make it simple If I am the user I would like to see following:
1. I go to dashboard page and select the prompt and get the report result.
2. I have link or button below to schedule.
3. I press the button I go to delivers section.
4. I have current report attached to the delivery content with default selection or current selection.
5. I modify other parameters and schedule.
Please help me.

Are you really sure that your IT_SCH has the same fields like POITEM?
the delivery date and statistical delivery date are located in the schedule tab in ME23N and stored in the schedule table EKET, not in EKPO where the PO item data is stored.
I think you should assign your IT_SCH to POSCHEDULE

Can we set prompts value in Webi to schedule thru JAVA SDK 4.0

Hi,
I need to schedule webi report which has prompts. Can we have schedule webi report with prompts in 4.0.
I was able set values for prompts and refresh the webi report using documentInstance object. I think we can't use this object for scheduling right?
Also, I would like set values from LOV.
Could you please help to find solution.
Thanks
Venkat

Hello Venkat,
Unfortunately the feature of scheculing a webi reports with prompts have been deprecated from the
version 4.0 using the enterprise java sdks.
In XI 3.1, promtsutil class was used for setting prompts while scheduling a webi report using java sdks, which have been deprectaed from 4.0 and there is no replacement for the same in enterprise java sdks.
However, this feature was re-implemented in the new Restful web services and is availble for BI 4.0 SP6 onwards as far as I am aware of.
Please refer to the below document for better understanding.
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4sp6_webi_restful_ws_en.pdf
Also please refer to the forum http://scn.sap.com/community/restful-sdk for any queries related to Restful webservices sdks.

Scheduling with a Prompt

Hie Guys,
When scheduling a report with a prompt (e.g. "Year"), how is it going to refresh the report when there is no prompt selected. Does it load data for all the years or do we have to remove the prompt for scheduling to work. Thanks.

Hii Jeevan,
It's depends upon the nature of prompt i.e whether it's optional or mandatory.
if the prompt is mandatory, the when ever the report is getting refresh will ask to enter the prompt value.Without answering the prompt , it will not proceed further.
If the prompt is set optional then can be refreshed without entering the value to prompt.Then in this case what ever the data available for the year will be retrieve if year is the single prompt other wise the data is loaded based on the number of prompt in the query.
It's better to not remove the mandatory prompt from query, rather set it as optional or set some default values . If set as optional then will work in both way.

Syed

How to pass prompt value to columns with formula?

Hello guys
I have a situation:
I have a report with 1 column name 'product' and in this column it has a case statement like 'case when item is ('a','b','c','d') then 'Men' else 'women' end'
Then I have created a dashboard prompt of the exact same column, and I defined the same case statement in the prompt's column formula as the same.. Then I tested the prompt and it is returning only 2 values 'men', 'women'..
However, when putting the prompt and report on the same dashboard, the report is not accepting the prompt values..
Then I set the presentation variable on the prompt and call it 'Product', then in the report I created a filter on 'product' column as equal to presentation variable 'product'--- I tried with and without single quotes.. So the filter itself looks like : case when ...... is equal to / is in @{product}
However, when I then return back to the dashboard, I am getting the error:
State: HY000. Code: 388918336. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 27005] Unresolved column: "Product". (HY000)
Could anyone help?
Thanks

Hola
is possible that are you using a BINS agrupation into the Column Formula?
if you form a CASE statement using a Bins agrupation, in the column Formula, this must be disabled to match statements between columns and DB Prompt
if you are using a BINS agrupation to form the CASE statement, you have to delete the bins agrupation in the Column but keep the CASE statement

Scheduling a report with System Date as prompt

Hi Experts,
We have came across a requirement where users want to have a date prompt.
While scheduling the report, by default prompt is to be populated with system date and it (prompt) should also allow us to select a different date.
This report is used for regular run and also for scheduling.
We need a single report with single prompt which allows us to run for any random date when prompted and also to be scheduled for the latest date.
Please give us advice/ suggestion.
Thanks
Uttam

Hi Neil,
We have tried both the approaches given by you, but it is not working for my requirement.
Let me explain it with the below scenario.
scenario:
we have developed the report by using 2 data providers,
Dp1: It is a custom Query with date as follows ( it is a Transaction data) which brings the data from 1st day of month(user prompt) to user's prompt date.
TRANSACTION_DATE BETWEEN last_day(ADD_MoNTHS(@Prompt('As Of Date :','DT','ABC\plant\Transaction Date',Mono,Free,Persistent,,User:0)
Dp2: It is also Custom Query, but it has only data on month ends.
DIMV_plant_EOP.TRANS_END_OF_MONTH_DATE = last_day(ADD_MoNTHS(@Prompt('As Of Date :','DT','ABC\plant\EOP plant Attributes\EOP Date',Mono,Free,Persistent,,User:0),-1))
Report is having 3 prompts, namely
1) As of date (prompt)
2) Plant (prompt)
3) Country (Prompt)
For example: if my report is ran on 06-june-2014,
DP1: Brings the data from 1st of June to 6th of june.
DP2: Brings the Data from Inception to last month(say 30-may-2014) because it has only month end data.
Upto this it is fine.... but
My requirement is to schedule the report daily......
Example: User want to schedule a report today(10-July-2014), tomorrow(11-July-2014) and so on...
Scheduling should be done daily i.e, it has to fetch the data 10-Jul-2014, 11-july-2014,12-july-2014.... so on.
Automatically scheduling has to take the current date.
Thanks,..

Change TextView value with Javascript

Hello,
I'm trying to find a way of changing the value of an HTMLB TextView on the client side with javascript.
Do you know how to do that ? Cannot work it out...
Many thanks
Nicolas

Hi,
this can be a bit tricky, because you have to know, how to access the element. that means you need an unique id or an absolute position of the TextView-element
if you can see, how to access the specific element in your client-pagesource, a possible javascript could be:
document.getElementById("<id of element>").firstChild.nodeValue="My new Text"
or access by name/count of the element:
document.getElementsByName("<name of element>")[#position of occurance].firstChild.nodeValue="My new Text"

      Morocco           ma
     Portugal           pt
Thanks

Hi,
Listboxes and dropdowns can be scripted against without too much difficulty.
You would need something like this in the click event of the button:
listbox1.rawValue = null; //clear previous choice
listbox1.clearItems(); //clear the list items
listbox1.addItem("Moocco", "ma"); //add new list items
listbox1.additem("Portugal", "pt");
Hope that helps,
Niall

Export Dashboard Prompt Values to excel with reports

I have a dashboard prompt. When I export the report, there is no prompt values download with it. Please help.

I dont think we can get that. If you want to see the filters (which are applied using prompt or report level filters) in the spread sheet
Try this:
In Answers->Result tab->Compound Layout->Add View->Filters
Save

Scheduled Program Does NOT Change Times with Guide Changes

When a program is scheduled from the Guide and then the Guide changes the start and end times, the scheduled program times do NOT shift AUTOMATICALLY with the Guide changes. Frequently the Guide program start and end times for a show move a minute, two, or three, sometimes more. The DVR scheduled program times do NOT keep up with these shifted Guide times but stick to the start and end times when scheduled. The DVR will often throw a yellow triangle up on the program indicating a conflict but the only conflict is with the Guide times. The DVR should AUTOMATICALLY shift the start and end times the few minutes and ONLY flag a conflict when the new times for the scheduled program conflict with another scheduled program, NOT with the Guide. This occurs most often on USA, FX, FXX, TBS programs which are frequently 61 or 62 minutes long. It is very frustrating to miss pieces of a recorded program, usually the end, because of these few minute time shifts.

Hello Venkata,
The components item category is TAE, that means the item category for the header item will be TAQ. Also the pricing will be carried out at the header item level only.
Now for your query:
The standard item category controls of TAQ will not have any connection between the header & the item level quantities in the delivery. If you change the quantity of the header item in the sales order, the quantity of the compnenets will be automatically adjusted. But this will not happen in the delivery with the normal settings of TAQ.
Solution:
Go to transaction code VOV7 - select TAQ - double click - In the Bill of Material/Configuration section , there is a field "Create Delivery Group" - select "X - Form delivery group with one delivery date".
Save the settings. Now create a new sales order & then create the delivery & try to change the quantity of the header item, the system will automatically change the quantity of the components. (the system may not change the quantity of the components in the delivery of the old sales order - change it manually)
With best regards,
