Trying to change a pre-defined report. Date format is wrong, 20140217 should be 17.02.2014.

The pre-defined report in sccm "Computers with specific software registered in Add Remove Programs" has a query like this:
Select DISTINCT sys.Netbios_Name0, fcm.SiteCode, sys.User_Domain0, sys.User_Name0, sys.Operating_System_Name_and0, arp.DisplayName0,
arp.InstallDate0
FROM fn_rbac_R_System(@UserSIDs) sys
JOIN v_Add_Remove_Programs arp ON sys.ResourceID = arp.ResourceID
JOIN v_FullCollectionMembership fcm on sys.ResourceID=fcm.ResourceID
WHERE DisplayName0 like @filterwildcard and fcm.CollectionID=@CollID
I have highlighted the part that I added to the report.
I have inserted an extra column in Report Builder, and added the value inside the column and the install date can be viewed in the report. However the date format is shown like this: 20140217 - I want it to be 17.02.2014.
So I try to change this via right-clicking on the cell in Report Builder, Text Box Properties, Number. Here I choose Date and the correct format. However it does not change the date format when saving and running the report again. It just stays the same.

The format can be change if it was a date. But if you look that field it is NOT a date, it is a string and therefore will not change to the data format that you want.
On top of this, there is a bigger problem. Not ever setup records the date or in the same format so.....

Sorry - I am not sure what you mean by the last statement. "Not ever setup records the date or in the same format so.."
- Would it be possible to elaborate? Thank you very much.

Export/Import pre-defined reports

Hi all.
Can i export reports (Dahsbooards, Pre-defined reports etc) created in one BI Server and import them to another? How? I have managed to import metadata using an rpd file but the reports havent changed...
Thanks, if I am not clear please tell me to explain, this is all new to me!

Open the RPD In online mode. In the physical layer, open up the connection pool that is being used for the database that reports are querying for data. Change the username and password. Check in connection pool, save the changes.
On a quick tip, the best way to handle this issue during migration is to use a static repository variable. Just create two variables for username and password and use these variables wherever required in the RPD. When you migrate the RPD, just change the values of the static repository variables after migration process. In this way you will avoid having to change the values of username and passwords in multiple places.
Hope your question is answered.

How to create reports with the prompts like the pre-defined reports ?

We are analyzing pre-defined report: Historical Pipeline Analysis. When executed we can see the prompts for Pipeline Fiscal Quarter and Pipeline Fiscal Year.
If we open this analysis I cannot see how this prompt have been built.
If I save this pre-defined report (without any change) to My Folders and execute it from here, the prompts are gone.
I´d appreciate any help.
Antonio

I have the same issue. The prebuilt reports are actually dashboards, which is why the dashboard prompt filters show up.
I'm not sure how they get it to be a link like that on the reports tab (since the link doesn't point to a dashboard URL ).
Any idea how to get this same effect assuming I built the dashboard/prompt around updated report?

Pre-defined reports on activity

Post Author: Jon80
CA Forum: General Feedback
It seems that Business Objects XI provides pre-defined reports on the 'Activity' universe. Any idea where to get documentation on this universe and where to find these reports?
One of the reports should be named 'Document Information Detail'

Post Author: jsanzone
CA Forum: General Feedback
Jon,
There is a PDF you should be able to find on the BusObjects Tech Support site entitled "xir2_bip_auditor" here.
Also, as Amr pointed out, there is under your install folder a sample datbase and reports (biar) files (C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\Samples). If you install auditor after the fact, then you'll have institute both the universe and reporting capability using the import wizard.

Date format in Bex Output should be changed while using with Text Variable

I am using a Bex Query where have defined a Text Variable with replacement path. So whatever Date user enters in the selection screen variable (Input Variable) the same date appears in the report description.
For Ex: If user enters 30.04.2012 in Char Variable/Input Variable before executing the report, so once he executes the report the same date appears on report description like "ABC Analysis as on 20120430". Is also changes the report description whenever user changes the date in selection screen variable.
My requirement is......Date format should be come as 30.04.2012 (DD.MM.YYYY) instead of 20120430 (YYYYMMDD) in report description.
Guys could you please help me out to achieve the desired output.
Rgds,
Ritu

Please check if you have selected Replace with Key in that text variable.
Instead of that select External characteristic value key.
This should help you in giving the desired output.

XML Publisher to Excel Report : Date format problem

Hi,
I am trying to create an Excel report with XML Publisher. I have an issue with the Date Fomatting.
In the XML template, I have set the "Date" column in date format. But the excel output report "Date" column returns as "General text" (string) and it is sorted as text, not as date.
Can anyone please help me out?
Thanks!!!

Hi,
Did this post solve your problem? I have the same issue that I need to solve.
I have an xsl-fo template with dates in it.
The dates are in english.
My excel is setup to use danish.
When I export to excel it knows the month jan, feb, mar, apr, ... which are the same in danish and english.
But months where it differs like may (danish maj) the cell is a general text instead of date.
Is there anyway you can set/transform the date in the xsl-fo template so it does not care about the language in excel?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Is the requirement to change the date format for one date (text item) or to change it in the table item.
1. Text Item
Use a div tag for the text item and give it an id which can be used in the javascript function.
On body load call a javascript function and change the format of the innertext of the div tag as if 1 then Jan, 2 then Feb etc..
2. If used in Table item.
Then you can the entire contents of the date by using the Table interface class by adding the approproate code in the Characteristics Cell/Attribute Cell method.
Hope this answers.
Thanks

Interactive Report - Date Format

Hi,
I created an interaticve report, in which one of the column is date picker data type. However, it's not showing the hour and minutes even though I chose the "DD-MON-YYYY HH:MIPM" format mask.
Does any one know why this it? Thank you very much for the help!

Hi Chris,
I tried to replicate this, but could not. Now granted, I tried this using the new "modern" method of controlling the default application date format via the new application Globalization attribute "Application Date Format". I set the Application Date Format to fmMM/DD/fmYY and my IR on EMP worked just fine.
If you can replicate this on apex.oracle.com (using Application Date Format), I'd be happy to take a look at it.

How to change open file dialogue box date format

Hi - I can't find how to change the date format whenever I open any creative suite document - my system preferences are set to dd/mm/yy and every other application shows this date except for CS4 it shows mm/dd/yy. Can anyone help please. Much appreciated.

Hi, I'm having the same problem with the date format - all Creative Suite 'open' menu items are showing US format mm/dd/yyyy rather than UK format dd/mm/yyyy... although everything else on my system is set for UK format and all other programs open properly. The strange thing is: I'm sure this has only just happened after years of using Creative Suite... I'm sure I would have noticed it before. I'm on CS3 so haven't had any recent updates that might have affected it.

Could I define the DAT-Format as default format in Diadem 9.x or 10.x ?

Hello,
could I define the old DAT-format as default format in the different dialog (navigator etc..) in the new Version of diadem (9 or 10) ?
Thanks

Hello,
unfortunately this is not possible.
Since DIAdem 9 we also have the wish to configure it, but ever got the answer that the new TDM-fomat is the new standard.
For your own you could write a little one-row-script like
Call FileNameGet("NAVIGATOR", "FileRead", DataDrvUser&"*.dat", "DD8x")
and connect it with a SCRIPT - shortcut to start it with e.g. the SHIFT+F1 - keys...
With regards

Changes to way Adobe reports data

Hello,
I'm using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 to collect data from a Dynamic .pdf that I created in Adobe Designer 7.0. When I initiate the data file collection workflow, the resulting excel spreadsheet reports the output in the following format, which I realize is the "hierarchy" structure of the document:
F[0].P#[0].x#[0]
What values could I change in Designer for a check mark box, a radio button, or a text box that the user fills in to make it easier to comprehend which question they are looking at?
Thank you for any help you can give me.

Please ask in the Designer forum: http://forums.adobe.com/community/livecycle/livecycle_previous_versions

ID Window locking up when trying to change the occurrence for a Data type

These are the steps I take to get the issue.
Log into XI - ID.
Create new data type.
Insert a new element.
when i change the the pop-up window that lets me select the 0..unbound does not pop up, but it puts my main XI-ID window in the background which locks up my session. I have changed my java version on my PC and tried the following three versions (1.4.2_16, 1.4.2_18 and 1.6.0_11) none of them work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Skip Ford

Well, that trick only worked for ½ hour.
Or mayby something else triggered the intermidiate succes.
Still unsolved...
