How can I schedule an export to excel format of an OBIEE Analysis or Dashboard to a local directory ?

Hello,
I would like to schedule with an agent some reports in OBIEE 11g that must be exported in excel format to a specific local directory.
There is a need for a group of OBIEE users to have a set of reports ready (exported in .xlsx) every morning.
Furthermore, if the previous scenario is possible then could I deliver a whole OBIEE Dashboard with the same way?
Any input will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
As of now , we are not able to save the report in shared location in Linux /Unix.
Windows it is possible.

Reports exported to Excel - Formatting issues

We have two Business Objects Enterprise servers (boxi r2 and boxi r3.1 sp3) running side by side. We find that reports created using boxi r2 and exported to Excel format look fine. When we run the same report and export to excel using boxi r3.1 sp3, we encounter the following formatting issues:
<ol>
<li>All columns do not fit on pages. The last 2 to 3 columns spill over onto extra pages.</li>
<li>There are some columns where most of the values are blank, but when a row is exported that has a value in that column, all subsequent column positions for that row shift.</li>
<li>All rows do not fit on page. The last two rows flow onto a new page, then there seems to be a page break.</li>
<li>On some reports dates are displayed as ######.</li>
<li>On some reports column headings are not centered.</li>
<li>I would appreciate any input that would help us determine a fix for the formatting issues we are encountering.</li>
</ol>
The report is executed using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.
Here is the code from the application that does the export:
                            ExportOptions exportOptions = new ExportOptions();
                            exportOptions.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.Excel;
                            exportOptions.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.DiskFile;
                            DiskFileDestinationOptions diskOptions = new DiskFileDestinationOptions();
                            diskOptions.DiskFileName = filename + ".xls";;
                            exportOptions.ExportDestinationOptions = diskOptions;
                            ExcelFormatOptions XLOptions = new ExcelFormatOptions();
                            XLOptions.ExportPageBreaksForEachPage = true;
                            XLOptions.ExportPageHeadersAndFooters = ExportPageAreaKind.OnEachPage;
                            exportOptions.ExportFormatOptions = XLOptions;
                            rptDoc.Export(exportOptions);
Please note the following details about our environment:
<h5>Report Designers:</h5>CR Designer version: xi Rel 2
<h5>Developer environment</h5>Has the following installed:

Umm, the code you provided has nothing to do with Business Objects Enterprise...(?). So, I'm a bit confused by the mention of BOE and "The report is executed using CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine" in essentially one paragraph.
Can you pls explain?

XXL exporting to excel

Hello ALl
I've recently installed 7.10 and using xxl functions but it is not exporting to excel properly.
I'm selecting the field that I want to export then select copy report to XXL,
then it is not exported to excel, but tranferred to SAP inbox, which is not downloadable to excel.
Anybody knows what will be the problem?

hi
check the patch level of your GUI. it should be the latest one for 7.10.

Export to excel formatting

I'm working on a quote report which has narrative sections as well as a table. I can get the report to look great in the application but it has formatting problems once exported to excel.
In one of my narrative reports I have a simple table with a few columns. Once exported to excel the first narrative column is the entire width of the report table below it. The large cell row is also merged cells in excel.
Is there anything that can be done to help force how the report goes into excel?
I have also tried creating the report in a narrative html table to export into excel.

Can someone explain if they face similar issues as I am when you export a report output on portal to Excel it takes huge size. I assume it because of all the color formatting etc. but is there a way to reduce this size. 3.5 Bex Analyzer same report takes only 3 MB while if I export it from portals it takes 32 MB.

Crystal reports 13.5 : Export to excel formatting

Hi. We are developing web application using VS 2010. We are using crystal reports 13. Initially we had VB6 application which used crystal reports 8.5. The format for excel report generated by crystal report 8.5 and crystal report 13.5 is different. We are using the export option in crystal report viewer for both reports. Is there any way in which we could make changes to crystal reports 13.5 to achieve similar excel formatting as crystal reports 8.5.

Hi Pooja,
Back in CR 8.5, it was the RDC COm SDK (CRAXDRT.dll) and with CR for VS 2010 it is .NET SDK which are two complete different SDKs and could not be compared.
However, the .NET SDK should export the report same as it is exported through CR designer.
Could you export the report in a newer designer possibly CR 2008 or CR 2011/2013 and compare the exported output with your .NET SDK export?
You could get the trial free download for CR desiner here.

exported excel sheet, but this didnot work.I am using excel 2007.
Can anyone tell me how to preserve the excel formatting for WAD template.
Thanks,
Harsha

Hi Roy
Have you got the report set to bring back a specific number of rows at a time (ie retrieve data incrementally in sets of : setting in options)?
If so set this to a larger number of rows, Discoverer will then return all data when the reports is run and will export all data to the spreadsheet.
Hope this helps

Export to Excel Formatting Lost

I've got a CR designed such that the report prints out a separate page for each grouping of data bay a certain data field.
The Crystal format and PDF format look beautiful and the paging is perfect. Yet when I export to Excel it all runs together and does not page correctly at all. Plus the formatting is totally screwed.
Is there a secret to getting the Excel export to behave as the report was written?
TIA
Harry

<<What version of CR?>>
11.0.0.1830
<<What CR SP has been applied?>>
unknown
<<Is this in an app?*>>
The call to create the report is in an app. Uses CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
CrystalX.RptUtils.GenerateCrystalReport(mDbx, argReportName, argParms, argOutputType)
Select Case piStrFormat
                Case "Crystal"
                    tOk = ExportToCrystal(tReportDoc)
                Case "Excel"
                    tOk = ExportAndView(tExportFolder, tReportDoc, piStrCrystalReportName, "XLS", CrystalDecisions.[Shared].ExportFormatType.Excel)
                Case "PDF"
                    tOk = ExportAndView(tExportFolder, tReportDoc, piStrCrystalReportName, "PDF", CrystalDecisions.[Shared].ExportFormatType.PortableDocFormat)
<<If an app, what SDK are you using?>>

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite
Version 8.0.50727.762 (SP.050727-7600) SP2
<<If the report was created in a stand-alone version of CR, how is the export there?>>
the report is created in CR v11.0.0.1830 above and uses a stored procedure for the datasource for the fields
<<"formatting is totally screwed" - a link to a screen shot would help. "Screwed" is not particularly descriptive(?)...>>
You're right that really doesn't tell you much.
The formatting is probably fine for it being an Excel file. Whereas the Crystal viewer and the PDF viewer isolate each page from the other, the Excel has the pages on same screen by its very nature.
I think what I may have to do is create another report that basically creates a separate Excel file for each grouping. I've got screen shots but the content is NDA cept I could pobably zip and send to your email if that's possible or a ftp site......Can the Crystal Report detect Excel export and if so create as many Excel files as groupings?

Export to excel - Formatting issue - OBIEE 11.1.1.5

Hi All,
When an analysis is exported to Excel, some of the values are showing some strange behaviour i.e. some values are multiplied by some huge number as you can see in the excel screenshot below.
BI Analysis Screenshot:
http://i44.tinypic.com/331eopf.jpg
Excel Screenshot:
http://i44.tinypic.com/34snqko.jpg
Is this BI issue or an Excel setup issue? And how to fix it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
We too faced the similar issue.
We tried ROUND function and it was coming with proper formatting.
Try and let me know further.

MuRam

Export in Excel format

Hi,
I tried to export the report (crystal report) to excel. Its exporting but the dat format is not exported properly. any suggestion

Hi,
Well, yes this can be hair-puller and no matter how much you try, you might still end up disappointed!
Most of the times it's because of the way the report is designed. Use the guidelines if you're designing a report that would be exported to Excel.
Make sure all the fields on the details section or on the other sections are evenly spaced and their dimensions are the same.
Subreports can add to the frustration as they normally tend to create blank cells, rows or columns - Can't do much about it!
There are two Excel export formats - Excel and Excel (data only). See which one produces the best output.
Good Luck!
