Selective Broadcasting OF web reports

Hello,
We have a report that displays Sales Amout by Region.
We need ability to send the Alert/Web report to the Regional Sales Manager when the Sales fall below perticular threshold.
We have a condition in our query that works just fine for that purpose.  And the Information Broadcasting works fine as well.
Issue is we have over 150 Regional Sales Manager and I do not wish to create 150 Information Broadcasting settings to be run nightly.
Is there any other options to achieve this functionality.
Thanks,

Hi,
If you want the Regional Sales Managers to see data or get an email when the Sales of their particular region has gone below
the threshold value, first you need to make the Region Authorization relevant to control access to the Region Specific Data and do the necessary configuration for the Roles.
Secondly, in the distribution in Broadcasting, you can specify the Users in Role, which will take care of this.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Tom.

    Hi Sreedhar,
    For IB check this link:

    For web reporting check if http service is running, SMICM->go to->services, there should HTTP and SMTP normally, and take a look

  • Selection Screen on Web Report only show filter area varieables.

    HI ,
    I am using WAD 3.5 and web template uses the query developed in 3.5, This report has two selection variables one in filter area and one in Rows section.
    We recently did the Ehp 1 upgrade and after that it automatically showing only variable selection for character in Filter area. To show all I have to hit "All".
    For Query designer query I was able to change the property in RSRT but for Web report I am not able to change and it is still showing only one selection screen instead of Two .
    Have you faced any such issue. Please can you share your thoghts on how to correct it.
    Best Regards
    Som

    Hi,
    if you are able to see both variables in rsrt we could say that the variable definition are ok ( option: ready for input in variable definition)
    So open the web report on web application designer and in the web template Properties search for "Force Variable Screen display" option and check this option.
    Hope it helps,

  • Selection fields in Web Reports

    Hi,
    In report selection screen I have several fields. Two of them are obligatory.
    But I don´t have to informe both at the same time, I mean; if I informe the first one I don´t need to informe more fields. If I informe the other one, I don´t need to complete the rest (including the first one that was obligatory)
    How can I validate if the user has complete one of the needed fields?
    Thanks!!

  • BOXI3.1 How to dedicate server groups to select Webi reports?

    We have a select number of Webi reports that we would like to always run on a specific server group which consists of a number of WebIntelligenceProcessingServer(s). I can get this to work fine by 1) setting up the server group 2) Specifying that server group in the "Default Settings" of a Webi report using the CMC 3) scheduling the report and viewing the latest instance. However I can find no way of stopping all other Webi reports in the system from running on that same server group.
    Anyone know how to set a server group up so that it only processes specific reports and not ever report in the entire BO XI repository?
    Thanks,
    George

    I have set up a little test on my BOE 3.1 SP3 system and have found the following:
    2 server group:  SDKNO and SDKYES
    4 WEBI Server (2 ADP and 2 WPS)
    Have given SDKNO a set of WEBI servers and have given SDKYES the other WEBI servers
    Created 2 user group SDKNO and SDKYES
    Have set SDKNO group to have NO acess to SDKYES and full control to SDKNO have set SDKYES group with full control to SDKYES and No Access to SDKNO
    Have created and schedlued webi reports as a user that should have NO access to the SDKNO server group and reports will still use the SDKNO servers.
    I have gone one step further and set security directly to the servers as opposed to the server group and still a member of the "SDKNO" group can use the "SDKYES" servers.
    Apperantly there does not seem to be a way to isolate servers based on group membership.
    What does this mean to you?
    Basically, if you want to use serve groups and you want to ensure that no "other reports" use any available server then all reports MUST be assigen to a only use a specific server group as, if this is not set, the "use first avaialble" option will come into affect and trump any server group security settings that have been set up.

  • Broad casting Webi report in excel format to different users email ids

    Hello,
    Seriously looking for the help, please help with the solution for below scenario.
    We have a requirement to schedule broadcasting of Webi reports to users email in excel format from infoview. But our concern is how the system takes care of authorizations of users when we broadcast the report to their mail id as excel file.
    For example we have one webi report for Finance and there are thousands of users for each department, cost centre etcu2026so how to broadcast the same webi report in excel to different users with only data they have authorized to see. We have committed to client that we can do this with out much massive overhead, please advise what is the easiest way to achieve this. I read something like this can be done using authorization profiles in CMS but creating those many profiles and mapping them to relevant authorizations is not possible as there are thousands of users with different authorization levels. And Client is expecting this broadcasting need to be done automatically with out every time manual intervention. 
    Looking forward for the prompt reply.
    Thanks,
    Gani.

    Please use the Dynmanic Recipients functionality of the Publication.
    For this we need to do follow steps.
    1) Create the WebI Report that needs to be published(Broadcasted)
    2) create Deski/webi report which contains the user details and email id's for publishing main report.
    3) Map the properties of souce report with Dynamic Recipient report.
    Please refer the user guide for more inforamtion.This helps you in avoiding manual creation of profiles in CMC.

  • How to create @prompt filter at universe level for my Webi reports

    Dear all,
    I am using BO XI 3.1 SP3 with SAP BW 7.0.
    I have created an open[big] query based on a multiprovider for my OLAP universe.
    OBJECTIVE: to create LOV prompts for Calender year, for my webi reports, which takes 2010 as input then offsets the input year and then shows Gross sales for the prompt year [2010], 2009 & 2008.
    ISSUE: if 2010 is selected in webi prompt filter, then it doesn't display any data for any other year, lets say gross sales for 2009.
    ALTERNATIVE: i tried to create a prompt filter in the universe with this syntax,
    <FILTER KEY="@Select(Calendar year\Calendar year).[TECH_NAME]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="InList"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Enter year','N',,Mono,Free,Not_Persistent)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
    it worked fine. but i also want to create a measure or dimension which subtracts 1 from the above filter and return a result with a previous year.
    e.g
    PROMPT: 2010
    PROMPT-1: 2009
    Universe structure
    [TIME]                         class
      [Calender year]        class
         [Calender year]     dimension  ( type:string)
    Please guide me with correct procedure and syntax.

    masood44 ,
    I think you should just prompt for year and capture and use the selection at the webi report  level.
    say you have calendar year(convert it into numeric) prompt at webi level. say user selects 2010 capture it in a variable var1:userresponse('enter year'). then create a variABLE (var2)  with formula :
    if(isPromptAnswered('enter year')='yes';([year] where year inlist(var1;var1-1;var1-2);null)
    build your report with var2 and gross income
    Thanks,

  • Can we generate one report tab for each of the prompt values selected in the bobj 4.0 webi report.

    can we generate one report tab which filters
    with each prompt value selected in bobj 4.0 webi report.

    Hi Shrinidhi ,
    It can be achievable with static tabs created for each LOV .But this is not recommended because , object values can change dynamically .
    It is good idea to use section on prompt object in the report .With sections great feature available is in larger report it’s easy to navigate using map. It displays the section tree.You can select the particular LOV to navigate.

  • Need to clear last selected prompt values while refreshing webi report

    While using ALL within cascading prompts its  still showing the last prompt values selected  in infoview and not while editing and trying to run webi reports.
    Is there any way to clear this?
    I have implemented following options to resolve but did not work
    1) Delete the .lov files of universe.                                                                               
    2) Delete the contents in data folder by going into storage directory
    3) Implemented the non_persistent concept in prompts
    Code is as follows for the filter with in universe
    @Select(Customised LOV\State) = @Prompt('Select State','A','Customised LOV\State',mono,free,Not_Persistent,,)
    or
    'ALL' = @Prompt('Select State','A','Customised LOV\State',mono,free,Not_Persistent,,)

    Hi,
    In Web Intelligence, the Query Filter Condition consists of 3 parts:
    - Object on which condition is applied
    - Operator (=,<,>,matches pattern, etc)
    - Operands (constant, LIst of Values, etc)
    You will find a button with a "?" sign which is also called as Prompt properties. When you click on this button, a new window will open and in this you have an option for "Keep last values selected" which is checked by default.
    Uncheck this check box --> Click OK. Run the report and save --> Relaunch InfoView to avoid any caching problems.
    Hope this works for you

  • How to select more than one free characteristics in web report?

    Hi,
    From the performance point of view, I want to select more than one free characteristics to be displayed in WEB report.
    I know in BEx Analyzer, we can do this by right mouse click and choose' query property' from the context menu, all the free characteristics are displayed in the popup window. But in WEB report these free char don't displayed in the 'query property' popup window.
    Could anyone tell me how to implement this in WEB report?
    Eileen

    Hi,
    each free characteristics in the list has two functions beside it, 'drilldown in rows' and 'drilldown in columns', but this functions as select only one free characteristics, each time you select one, the report will be loaded again.
    if I want to select like 10 free characteristics, the report will be refreshed and reloaded 10 times.
    my question is that how can I select these 10 free characteristics once to improve the performance.
    your help will be appreciated. Thanks.

  • How to include text lable in Variable selection screen (Web Reporting)

    Hi Experts,
    I have created one query and in Web Report-->variable selection screen I have one Date field for that field I have to display a label stating that user to input date in the format YYYY.MM(like a text label).Actually I have created 10 to 12 report . I need u r suggestion such that a single change will reflect my requirement in all the reports and I have created all the reports for same multiprovider.
    Thanks in Advance
    Yours,
    Bala

    Bala,
    Prompts can originate from one of two places:  either via Designer and using the @prompt functionality or while creating the report building a prompt in the Query Filters panel.  If the prompt was built using the @prompt method, and all 10-12 reports are using that particular @prompt, then one change via Designer will cause all reports to reflect the new verbiage.  If you built the 10-12 reports using the prompt in the second scenario, then each individual report needs to be opened, modified and then saved.  If you must use the latter method, then you can open the first report, modify the prompt verbiage, then highlight the new verbiage with your mouse and hit Control-C (which copies that text to the Clipboard of your Windows system).  Then go to the second report, locate the verbiage that needs to be changed, delete it, then Control-V (which pastes), and voila, some keyboarding strokes are saved....
    Thanks,

  • Sort variable values in selection box in BEx web report.

    Hello friends,
    In my BEx web report I have cal/month selection. When I do dropdown to select values it starts with 01/1960 and I have to click 10 times to get to 01/2006, 02/2006 and so forth.
    Is there a way to sort these values so I can get most current cal/month in first list?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    BJ

    I would consider changing the read mode for the dropdown box.  Are all of those dates actually relevant?  Check out the properties of the dropdown box in WAD. 
    Thanks,
