Unable to refresh webi report in live office

I have a webi report and using live office, i want to create a dashboard,
i can able to refresh this webi report in infoview but can't in live office, giving an error not sufficient rights. what are the rights to be modified to refresh this report in live office? using the same user id, why a webi report can be refreshed in infoview and not in live office?
can anybody help me.
Thanks in advance
Krishna

Hi Krishna.
Take a look at SAP Note 1461825 - Error "You do not have sufficient rights to refresh data from the specified report (LO 26314)
Resolution
   0. Login to the Central Management Console (CMC).
   0. Goto Folders and expand All Folders -> Goto the User Security of the Folder where the document is stored.
   0. Select the User Group that needs permissions for refreshing the document -> Assign Security -> Advanced Tab -> Click on Add/Remove Rights
   0. Expand Content
   0. Select Crystal Report -> Grant Refresh the report's data.
Strangely enough you need a authorization component from Crystal side when you operate outside WebI
Best regards,
Janne

Unable to refresh a report in P21 Activant

We recently upgraded our Activant P21 (Prophet 21) software which includes Crystal Reports. Standard P21 canned reports in their software can be viewed, exported and printed. The P21 software includes a feature to create and link custom reports. We create the custom reports with Crystal Reports 2008 and set up the external report links. We can open, view, print and export the custom reports but when we refresh the report with or without an input parameters, we are prompted for a "Database Login" password. When we enter our password, an error message titled "Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer" states "Logon Failed. Please try again". We have contacted Activant about this issue and they do not find any errors in the set up. They have told us there is probably an issue with Crystal Reports and asked us to contact your company. We have also contacted a friendly competitor who uses the same Activant P21 software and create custom reports with Crystal Reports 2008 which include user input parameters. Their custom reports work without a glitch. What would prevent us from refreshing a custom Crystal report?

Hi Don,
Activant P21 is insisting our issue is a Crystal problem. We are unable to refresh the reports inside their software. We have tried every user id and password we know and it still will not refresh our CR report.
When we use CR2008 to refresh a report, a window opens titled "OLE DB (ADO)" and asks to choose a data source "ODBC Data Source....Choose a data source from the list" We select our ODBC DSN: P21 Live and click next. Another window opens titled "OLD DB (ADO) asking for a password "Connection Information...Provide necessary information to log on to the chosen data source." At this point it does not matter what "User ID" or "Password" we use, the report will refresh. We have used the Adminstrator with a password, we used my user name and password and we used the administrator without a password and in all three instances, the report refreshed with the correct data.
I don't see how this is a Crystal problem unless there is something I am missing. Any help you can provide will be deeply appreciated.

Error occured while refreshing webi report in bi system

Dear Experts ,
please look into my problem
While refreshing WebI report in BIDEV system, we are getting the following error. The problem occurs only while refreshing the report.
ERROR: a database error occured. the database error text is unable to connect to sap bw server incomplete logon data.. (wis10901)
Regards

HI ayur
In the universe connection if the username and password is hardcoded then make sure those username and passwords are correct.
else
Make sure you are in the right BOX, for example if Universe is pointed to Prod, and you execute the report associated with that universe in the Dev, then that error will show up. So in universe connection find out to what BOX(dev, test, prod) it is pointed to and login to webI in the same BOX as universe pointed to and execute the report.
It should work, if not please let us know.

Error when refreshing WEBI report with Universe Connection Type "SSO"

Hi Experts:
We are trying to refresh the Webi report in Infoview with Universe Connection set as "Use Single Sign On when refreshing the report at view time", so that we can leverage SAP OLAP authorization variable from Bex Query which the Universe is built on.
However got the error of "incomplete logon data" after all the configurations done following below blogs:
SNC Part 1
/people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2009/07/03/businessobjects-enterprise-and-client-side-snc-part-1-of-2
SNC Part 2
/people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2009/07/03/businessobjects-enterprise-and-client-side-snc-part-2-of-2
We already have Win AD SSO to SAP setup, and in BO CMC, Win AD user is mapped to SAP user ID.
The SNC settings are:
- AD Account: service.test.bobj (all lower-letters)
- 32-bit gsslib on the BO server, and 64 bit on the BW server side.
- SNC0: p:service.test.bobj at DOMAIN
- SU01 --> BO_Service ; SNC: p:service.test.bobj at DOMAIN
- Entitlement system tab --> username: BO_Service
SNC Name: p:service.test.bobj at DOMAIN
- SNC settings tab:
SNC Lib: c:\winnt\gsskrb5.dll
Mutual Authentication settings: p:SAPServiceBP0 at DOMAIN
In CMC, the role can be imported if "RFC activated" option unchecked in SNC0.
I found a few threads on the same topic, but they are all not answered:
SNC Client side configuration error
SNC Configuration Error: Incomplete logon Data
Can you please provide details of the solution if you have impleted a same scenario successsfully, or any thoughts to help the investigation?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Jonathan

Hi Ingo,
Sorry for taking so long to reply, we are trying to set up server side trust and enable SSO; but we still couldn't success.
What we did is:
1. We followed installation guide chapter 6, generate certificate and PSE, etc. All looks good.
2. Then we still have the "incomplete logon data" error when refreshing webi report after logon using Windows AD user ID.
3. Then we trace the PFC connection, the log is as below. We checked several BO notes, e.g. 1500150, 1461247.. The part bothers us is that we even don't have URI displayed in the log when system trying to use SNC, and we couldn't get more info on this which make us very difficult to diagnosis.
Can you please help? Thanks a lot!

Error while refreshing BO objects using live office

Hi Forum,
We are getting below error while refreshing the data using Live Office plug-in on PPT.
“An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to http://........ This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server.”
This error comes in exact 5 minutes.
The server name used for web service is from a clustered environment. When the individual node is used Live office refresh works fine but while using the generic name refresh fails.
Please provide your inputs.

Hi Honed,
Take the backup of dsws.properties file and do the following changes:
properties            values
domain               @<clustername>
session.timeout    value higher than 5 minutes

USER UNABLE TO REFRESH DISCOVERER REPORT IN DISCOVERER DESKTOP 10g

Dear All,
HELP!!!
A new user is unable to refresh discoverer Reports in Desktop. All priviledges have been granted to username in Disco Admin and Usre is able to log into oracle Apps.
On the PC the user logged into someone else can log into Discoverer Desktop and run/refresh discoverer reports without any issues. Hence Ithink neither the PC nor the Discoverer installation is the problem.
Can anyone help? What setup/profile needs to be completed in order for the user to be able to run Disco reports.
Pls note that the following has been completed:
1. Business Areas Assigned to user and his responsibilities.
2. Desktop/Plus Privileges assigned.
3. Allow administration - DISABLED - NOT TICKED
Many thx
DI

Does this person just need to run reports? Or does this person also need to create reports? If the person just needs to run reports, try using Viewer for that person, rather than Desktop. This may be something that you need to log a service request with Oracle to get resolved. Pretty strange that can bring items into a new worksheet, but it won't run. Maybe there is an Oracle applications security issue (since logging in as another person does work)? You may be beating your brains out trying to find a Discoverer problem when it might be an application security problem. Though this is a wild guess on my part.

Refresh Webi report with merged cells in crosstab in PowerPoint

Hello,
I have created a Webi report with a crosstab. In this crosstab I have merged some cells in the top left corner and inserted a title for the crosstab. Now I want to import the crosstab in PowerPoint with Live Office. The problem is, that after the import in PowerPoint the cells are not merged anymore. So I merged them manually. When I refresh the crosstab, the cells are still merged in PowerPoint, but they are empty.
Any ideas how to solve this issue?
Uwe

Does Xcelsius support Cross Tab report via Live Office?

-Operating System: Windows XP
-OS Patch level: Service Pack 3
-Office Version: 2007
-Flash Player version: 10
-Xcelsius Version and Patch Level: Enterprise 2008 with SP2 (version: 5.2.0.0)
-Xcelsius Build number (Help>About Xcelsius): 12,2,0,608
-Business Objects Enterprise version/patch level (if applicable): Edge 3.1
-Issue Description:
I have a dashboard which collects data via Live Office from a series of Webi documents and Crystal Reports. I have found that if I create a report that has for instance sales regions down the left and months across the top using a cross tab in either Crystal Reports or as a Webi the data will only refresh within the current month, so for instance if I create the report in October the sales figure for October will update happily until the last day of the month but on the first of November no sales figures will show in the new month and I have to manually refresh the report in Xcelsius and issue a new Dashboard to my users. This makes me wonder whether Cross Tab reports are actually supported via Live Office. If I use formulas in Crystal Reports and manually build a report that looks like this but uses formulas it works fine, but is obviously a much slower process than simply building a Webi cross tab.
Your views and help would be very much appreciated!!
Thanks
Rob
-Steps to Duplicate:
As Above

Hi Rob,
You can bind cross tab reports from your WebI reports into Xcelsius using an integration tool called[ Xcelsius Web Intelligence Intregration Suite|http://www.antivia.com/products-xcelsius.stm].
This will give you the full functionality of Web Intelligence inside an Xcelsius dashboard- drill-down, cross tabs, even an ad hoc query panel, all bound into the Xcelsius interface.
This would remove the need to use QaaWs or Live Office, so you can probably realize some performance gains and handle larger data volumes.
Cheers,
Andrew

Error while refreshing webi report

SAP BO XI 3.1, when i am trying to refresh data in a webi report, its giving error, Invalid prompt definition contact BO admin WI 00005.
Though i deleted all filters in Bex query, save the query, import universe, refresh univerese, save universe, export universe still webi report is showing the same error, but if all the filters are removed it shouldn't show that error?
After universe is refreshed clicked the check button it showed me 15 errors on filters with message Invalid prompt definiton, supplied XML doc is not valid.
Can any one please help me out.
Thanks.

I am getting this error when i refresh the webi report.
ERROR:
Multiple query filters contain a prompt with the same text, but the
prompts use a different opernd type or operator count of values. (WIS: 0015)
I got answer for this error.
The query has multiple prompts that display the same message. Web Intelligence combines prompts with the same message and displays the prompt once. If the operator defined for some of these prompts requires you to enter one value while the operator in other prompts with the same message requires you to enter multiple values, Web Intelligence cannot combine the prompt.
But can anyone please explain me what is the cause of error in brief? i didn't get what does prompt with same text means?

Error while refreshing WEBi Report : Supplied XML Invalid

Hi,
I have a universe buit on BI query in production environment.
I changed the query in BI directly in PRD. The only chnage i did was ,unhide the keyfigure which was hidden originally as i wanted to see the data it brings in BEx analyzer.
Then i agian chaged that key figure to Hidden.
now the WEBi reports which are built on the universe which uses this bi qury is not getting refreshed.
It gives the error : Supplies XML invalid
I refreshed the Universe and Parsed it.there was 1 parsing erroe in Filter.Still i exported the universe.
Now generally the WEBI reports start working after re exporting the universe, but this time it is not working.
What can be done in this case.???
I dont think it is because of parsing error as i have exported the same universe earlier with same error and reports worked fine that time.
following is in the WHERE section of the filter:
<FILTER KEY="[!V000006]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Posting date','D',,mono,free)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>

How you tried editing Webi report ?
Its possible that your changes to Bex query while propagated to Universe after structure refresh, have changed some of the objects, and that change is not in Webi report yet, you'll need to edit it and maybe re-map objects.....

ORA-12500 error while refreshing webi report

Hi All,
The problem looks simple, but i am struck with this. I am trying to refresh a webi report in BO XI R3.1, it throws the error "DBD: ORA-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process". It looks like there is no issue with the tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora.whar could be the other cause for this issue ? Any input will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
   You need to fix up the issue on the Oracle D/B side first prior to testing on WebI.
   Try this link, it explains the error encountered in more details.
             http://ora-12500.ora-code.com/
   Simply put, can you use client tool (e.g. TOAD) to log into Oracle D/B using the same machine?
   Fix up the connection then WebI will work.

Ken

This means you are using SSO. Make sure you are using SAP Authentication(or the user has an sap auth alias assigned in cmc) to login and SSO is properly configured between BW and BO.
