Select Query Resutls - operand for WebI Rich Client XI3.0 not available?

Hi ,
Using Deski we put a filter condition on a query using the deski query panel. Also we can select resutls from another query in the same report (query from a differen dataprovider) using the operand Select Query Resutls(any).
However in Web Intelligence Rich Client for XI3.0 we don't have this operand so we can not filter using results from another query in the same report.
Does anyone know how to work around this problem?
Know any plans for this feature ? As you all know, this is an extremely powerful feature.
Rgds,

Minkook,
Does anyone know how to work around this problem?
Rich client allows you to import a text or excel file on the fly to your report. To filter what you have you could build entries into the excel file, import, merge dimensions and voila, have your filtering done. It does seem dumb to do it this way when a quick filter is all you want. I'm with you in that the quick filter functionality would be highly desirable.
Thanks,
John

Require LOV's should be displayed on single page for Webi Rich Client -R3.0

Hi all,
Is there any way to display the list of values in a single page when we apply a quick report level filter in Web intelligence Rich client report.
Behavior:
When we have large list of values for an object then the list of values are displayed in pages......
We can avoid the pages in Webi by making changes to the 'List of value batch size' from 1000 to 10000.
Is there any setting for displaying the list of values for Web Intelligence rich client ?
Please advise....

Alpha Sorting of Universe and LOV in Webi Rich Client

We currently are using both Webi and Webi Rich Client XI3.1 SP4 in Webi the universes and the LOV sort Alpha Numeric automatically, however in the Rich Client the list of universes and the LOV are not sorting Alpha Numeric. In designer we have all the universes with the Force_Sort_LOV set to yes
Any suggestions on how to resolve this issue would be appreciated

Have you tried dropping the associated universe LOV and re-publish? This happened to us in the past.
Steps:
1) In the univ designer object properties, deselect the "associate a LOV" in Properties tab. Close. Save. Export to CMS. (this drops the LOV)
2) Go back in univ designer and check the associated LOVs again to rebuild then republish to CMS.
Does this work?

2.I want to know why this happens,

>could you please test the following solution if you have multiple data providers in the report.

WebI report in Rich Client refreshing - But not in the webbased WebI client

Dear experts,
I am quite new to BO and I am currently facing the following problem regarding our WebI reports:
I created a WebI report in the WebI Rich Client. This report accesses an OLAP universe, which in turn gets data from a SAP BW through a BI query. I also exported the report to the CMS. In InfoView, it is displayed correctly as well. The report displays the data alright.
Now here comes the strange part of it: When refreshing the report from within the WebI Rich Client, the data is being updated (the current BW data is being shown) as it is supposed to. BUT when refreshing the report from within the WebI Java client (in InfoView), the report would not update, i.e. it would not display the current BW data but instead the old data. When scheduling instance creation the instances would also not display the current data.
We are am running BO XI 3.1, no FixPacks.
Does anybody have a clue why this is happening?
Any hint would be appreciated.
Many thanks in advance!
Best,
Kai

Hi Ingo,
Many thanks for your reply!
The report would not refresh after I hit "Refresh data" ("Daten regenerieren" in German). Plus the newly created instances (one instance is being created every 5 mins) would also not show the current data.
The funny thing is that as soon as I go back to the Rich Client and hit "Refresh data" in the Rich Client, the report would always show the current data, never the old ones.
We should probably continue discussing in just one thread (Scheduled WebI report instances with differing values), this issue seems to be interrelated somehow anyway. Sorry for opening up multiple threads.
Thanks and best regards,
Kai

Connection error in Webi Rich Client Bobj 4.1 sp1

Hello Experts,
I am getting an error while connecting Bobj server(4.1 sp2) through Webi rich client (4.1 Sp1).
When i am trying to connect to CMC, i am able to connect it.
Please help on this.
Thanks in Advance
Bhasin

Hello Bhasin,
I have few questions ans steps for you.
1. Are you able to login into any other BO client tool?
2. Do you have multiple Network Cards [NICs] on BO Server box?
If YES, we need to prioritize it as below. Once donw bind primary IP with CMS. as mentioned below.
Change Network Binding Order:
Click Start, click Network, click Network and Sharing Center, and then click Change Adapter Settings.
Press the ALT key, click Advanced, and then click Advanced Settings. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Click the Adapters and Bindings tab, and then, under Connections, click the connection you want to modify.
Under Bindings for <connection name>, select the protocol that you want to move up or down in the list, click the up or down arrow button, and then click OK.
Bind Primary IP with CMS:
Log onto Central Management Console (CMC).
Open Central Management Server (CMS) properties page, under
Host Identifiers: change from Auto assign to IP Address
Then input CMS server local IP address beside (IPv4).
Do this for each CMS.
Restart the CMS.
Good Luck

Webi rich Client Drivers Issue

Hi,
I am facing errors when i try to run the query in WEBI Rich client whereas when I run these queries directly on the server I am not getting any error messages. Based on the error messages, I think I might need to install some drivers. Can anyone tell me the drivers that we need for Oracle & Microsoft?
When i try to run a Query on the webi rich Client for the Universe that was connecting to oracle, i am getting the following error message:
Below shown are the errors that I am facing with 2 universes which are connecting to SQL Server.
1. When i try to run a query for the Universe that is built on Cube, I am getting the following error:
2. When i try to run a query for the Universe that is built on Datamart, I am getting the following error:
Please help me out here if anyone knows the solution.
Thanks & Regards.

Hi,
short answer to your question : it depends on what your consuming.
you need to find out the exact version of these sources (i.e. ORA 11.1? MSAS 2008 SP2? etc)
then identify the middleware from that vendor which is supported by our SAP applications. For that, you need to cross-reference the 'product availability matrix ' (pam) for your specific Service Pack of the BO BIPlatform . www.service.sap.com/pam
then, you need to look at the connectivity of your universes to see which driver they are using (ODBC, JDBC or OLEDB for example) and then download the right file from the DB vendor's site.
then make sure that you install 32 bit MW on your client tools machine, and 64 bit on your server.
You will then need to administer the ODBC data source names (DSN) everywhere .
Good luck!

Xcelsius vs Webi Rich Client

If in a SAP implementation project BI reports are being designed using BEx Query Designer, is it necessary/mandatory that the BO reports i.e. Dashboards should be designed using Webi Rich Client tool, or can it also be possible using Xcelsius 2008 (formerly) now SAP BO Dashboards.)

Hi,
BO consultant can design & work on both Dashboard's & webi reports not only these need to work on other tools also like UDT,IDT, OLAP ,QAWS,Crystal Reports etc.
Business req & type of user : either report need to shown for
1. High level mgt ( Dashboard's)
2.Middle level mgt
3.Low level mgt
(Refer above link )
Till now I have very much user friendly with Xcelsius , so should I continue with Xcelsius or start doing R & D on Webi Rich client, so that if at all in the future it is required, it will make my work comfortable :
For this i explained it purely depends on Business requirement .
Mostly as a BO consultant need to be Familiar with all Reporting tool's (Xcelsius,webi,Crystal,Olap etc)
Thanks.

Variable screen of webi rich client differs from one of Infoview

Hello
We are on BO XI 3.1 sp3, universe of the top of SAP BI 7.01 query.Webi version 12.3.0
Char1 is set to delegated search. Variable1 for char1 is mandatory, multiple single values on SAP BI side.
Webi reports (executed from webi rich client) allows search by value for this char1. Webi report (executed from infoview) doesnt allow any search for char1.
Button FIND (match case) looks inactive. It doesnt start search.
I tried different combinations (see below) but it doesnt help.
*XXX
XXX
XXX
Does anybody know that cases the difference?
Thanks

Herr Kommandante
Does it make a difference if you switch between HTML and JAVA viewers in Infoview?
Does it make a difference if you switch between View and Modify modes in Infoview?
Are you patched to the same level on both Client and Sercer?

Henry

Web rich client -- report tabs missing in edit mode

Hello,
A report was created in web Rich client and then was exported in the BO repository. In view mode, we
see all tabs, but in edit mode,only two tabs are displayed.
any idea please?
Thanks a lot.

hi,
I also faced the same issue.
I could replicate the issue suceessfully on a consistent basis.
STEPS to replicate the issue
1.     Create a new webi report using Island Resorts Marketing Universe
2.     Query Panel Objects
a.     Country, Resort, Service, Number of guests
3.     Run query (Tab 1 is created automatically)
a.     Report 1 u2013 Table containing above objects
4.     Right Click Report 1 - >Insert Report -> rename it to u2018Crosstabu2019
5.     Move the report tab to Left such that Crosstab appears as first tab
6.     Drag Crosstab from Templates.
a.     Pull Country and Resort objects as rows to Crosstab
b.     Pull Service as Column to Crosstab
c.     Pull Number of guests as measure to Crosstab
7.     Select Country -> Insert Break
8.     Select Resort -> Insert Break
9.     Select Resort First and Country Second -> Click on Merge Cells button
10.     Select No
11.     Now again click on Merge Cells button
12.     Select Yes this time.
13.     Save the report.
14.     View the report from Infoview. You will see both tabs
15.     Edit the report. (You cannot edit the second tab - Report 1. Edit the first tab u2018Crosstabu2019)
16.     only one tab is visible. Other tab u2018Report 1u2019 is missing.
Observations:
Report Footer appears as the top section in Map -> Structure
So my conclusion is when a reverse merge is applied on Crosstab with breaks, this issue occurs.
But i don't know how to recover the tabs in Edit mode.
Please let me know how to recover the missed tabs in Edit Mode. Also let me know the other scenarios which might lead to the same issue.

Vamsee

Report Developed in Webi Rich Client Consuming more time in Data Retrieval

Dear All,
I am a BO Consultant, recently in my project I have developed one report in Webi Rich Client., at the time of development and subsequent days the report was working fine (taking Data Retrieval time less than 1 minute), but after some days its taking much time (increasing day by day and now its taking more than 11 minutes).
Can anybody point out what could be the reason?????
We are using,
1. SAP BI 7.0
2. SAP BO XI 3.1 Edge
3. Webi Rich Client Version :12.3.0 and Build 601
This report is made on a Multiprovider (Sales).
What are the important points that should be considered so that we can improve the performance of Webi Reports????
Waiting for a suitable solution.....................
