Unable to see substituion variable in the reporting studio

Hi,
I have added substitution variable to the reporting studio the variable name I gave as var1
and value as 2009,but I am unable to see the substitution variables in my reporting studio.
What can be the reason for it?
Thanks

Hello,
you have to quote the value because it doesnt start with a letter.
Every Value which you had to put in quotes in an Calc Script or Member Formula or so, you have to quote in FR Studio too. Planning accepts the value without quotes, FR Studio doesnt.
Bye

Unable to see system variable no in sap b1 due to watch

Dear Sir,
In SAP B1
I am generating report Customer Aging Report.
In PLD Customer Code is displaying buy i am unable to display customer name in PLD because when i am unable to see
system variable number.
The watch cover that variable no. how can i find system variable no.
is there any other method to see system variable no.

Hi,
what you are seeing in system-> status is not the installation number that is the status of your system's SAP License
when you have not installed the license properly after the installation, it shows the status as initial
go to SM51
there you can find the instance number along with the Hostname_SID_InstNumber of your server
thanks and regards

Unable to see fields of BI Publisher report in MS Office

Hi,
We have a report in BIPublisher(10g). We are designing a template for a report. So from MSOffice, while we are accessing the report, we are unable to see the fields. We were able to see only RowSet. The report is working or able to see in BIPublisher.
This happens very often to us. We will be able to see the fields for some of the reports and unable to see for some reports. I can say we are able to see all the reports in BIPublisher.
Initially we are working in the sytem with 1GB RAM and thought that MSOffice is unable to load the report. Now we are working from a system with 2GB RAM, still same problem.
We did: Open MSWord-->Login to BIPublisher--> Open the folder-->Select the report.then--Insert field.
In the popup window opened, we were able to see only RowSet no fields.
We observed this is happening to the reports which have parameters to be passed
where could be the problem...help us.
Thanks

Variable in the report agent.

Hai All,
I have used a variable in the report agent to run a query in the background. The variable I used already incrementing dates automatically when the report is executed on the web. Do I need to make anymore other setting in the report agent for this variable or Is it going to be fine.
Thanks, Vijay.

Anil, Ravi,
Thanks for your advise. When I created the variant in the webtemplate the date range is feb1 to feb28. But the Date range for the query changed to march1 to march1.
After I scheduled the package, when run rsrt with statistics for FEB I see all 0's in the statistics and for march I see some count in the statistics. Will this be okay? When run using the process chain this will take right dates?.
In the Agent settings, under filtering I am using 'No Filtering'. If I click on 'explicit thru query rslt then there is variant. Do I need to take this route?
Thanks for your help in this regard, Vijay.

Unable to see local variable values when debugging java

Hi,
I am using JDev 10.1.2 with java version 1.4.2_04.
I have been using JDev to debug my java programs. But suddenly from this morning I am unable to see local variable values. I am able to see class and instance variables. This has happened to me before and I had restarted my machine couple of time, to get this sorted. But this time, nothing helps. Going thru the forum I found out that Include Debug information (Project Properties -> Compiler Option) need to be turned ON. It is already turned ON for me.
I would greatly appreciate if you could let me know how to crack this problem.
Thanks in advance.

No. The local variables 'used' to show up during debugging. But erratically it doesn't show up local variable values. I had to restart my machine couple of times whenever this happens, inorder to see the local variable values. But this time even restarting doesn't help.
Is there any preference setup that need to be turned on/off to see local variables?
Also I can't step into a static method now. Any idea why this happens?

Query Stripping not working properly when using variable in the report

We have issue with WEBI document that have query stripping enable.
Once the query stripping enabled there is no data return in the report.
We have investigate on the problem, the query stripping function are notable to retrieve objects that indirectly used in the report
as we have
many variable in the reports.
Ex.
Var1 = object1 + object2
Var2 = Object3 + Object4
Var3 = Var1 + Var2
Var4 = Object1 + Object2 + Object3 + Object4
If we use only Var3 in the report, the object1,2,3,and 4 will not be
retrieve.
But if we are using Var4 in the report, the object1,2,3,and 4 will be
retrieve properly.
Please let me know is it a by-design behavior, if yes please share points on it

Hi Amit,
Thank you for response, however i already had alook on that VIdeo and it tells us about the basic enabling of query stripping.
But my question is when we have a Variable in a report which is dependent on the other two variables it gives me #error so is it by design or not.

XML Report completes with error due to REP-271504897: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.

We are in the middle of testing our R12 Upgrade. I am getting this error from the invoice XML-based report that we are using in R12. (based on log). Only for a specific invoice number that this error is appearing. The trace is not showing me anything. I don't know how to proceed on how to debug where the error is coming from and how to fix this. I found a patch 8339196 that shows exactly the same error number but however, I have to reproduce the error in another test instance before we apply the patch. I created exactly the same order and interface to AR and it doesnt generate an error. I even copied the order and interface to AR and it doesn't complete with error. It is only for this particular invoice that is having an issue and I need to get the root cause as to why. Please help. I appreciate what you all can contribute to identify and fix our issue. We have not faced this issue in R11i that we are maintaining right now for the same program which has been running for sometime. However, after the upgrade for this particular data that the user has created, it is throwing this error REP-271504897.

Hi,
Check on this note also : Purchasing Reports Fail When Changing Output To XML REP-0002 REP-271504897 REP-57054 (Doc ID 1452608.1)
If you cant reproduce the issue on other instance, apply the patch on the test instance and verify all the funcionality related to the patch works OK. Then move the patch to production. Or you can clone the prod environment to test the patch.

REP-0002: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file;

Hi,
I've a custom report in which i need to display a large string, of more than 4000 characters. To cater to this requirement i've written a formula column which displays string upto 4k characters and for a string of size beyond 4k i am calling a procedure which uses a temp table having a clob field.
For a small string the report runs fine but whenever a large string requirement comes into the picture, said procedure gets triggered and i get REP-0002: Unable to retrieve a string from the Report Builder message file.
OPP log for the same gives an output as under:

Problem Description
When running a *.REP generated report file you get errors:
REP-00002 Unable to retrieve string from message file
REP-01439 Cannot compile program since this is a runtime report
Running the same report using the *.RDF file is successful.
You are running the report with a stored procedure,
OR you are running against an Oracle instance other than the one developed on,
Or, you recently upgraded your Oracle Server.
Solution Description
1) Check that the user running the report has execute permissions on any stored
SQL procedures called. <Note:1049458.6>
2) Run the report as an .RDF not an .REP , that is remove or rename the .REP
version of the report. <Note:1012546.7>
3) Compile the report against the same instance it is being run against.

How to use customer exit variable in the report

Dear All,
i want to use a standard customer exit variable in the report properties.
In the Bex Query Designer right hand bottom you will find two buttons "Properties" and "Task". Click on task you will get different option. Choose properties from there and then select "variable sequence tab".
I need to add a standard variable there. How can i achieve it?
Appreciate your early help.

You need to add variable to corresponding charctertic then you can get that varaible for sorting the sequence....
If 0CUST is the varaible then you need to assign it 0CUSTOMER then 0CUST will be available for the sequence.

Userexit variables in the report designer

I want to use a query with userexit variables where 1 variable is derived from another variable in the report designer. This does not seem to work, behavious seems to be as follows:
1) when variables are derived from other variables they are filled in step 2 of the variable userexit. Variables filled in step 2 have no effect on the query: everything is selected
2) if the derived variables are mandatory, they even cause a dump saying the variable is empty
3) if variables are filled in step 1 (thus before the selection screen), they do impact the selection. The problem is that step 1 is too early to have access to the other variables.
How can I derive variables from other variables when using the report designer?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Best Regards,
Filip Ledoux

Hi,
For example if you want use value from variable ZVAR_02 (manual entry) in variable ZVAR_01 (user exit) you can use similar code:
DATA: L_S_RANGE TYPE RSR_S_RANGESID.
DATA: LOC_VAR_RANGE LIKE RRRANGEEXIT.
CASE I_VNAM.
   WHEN 'ZVAR_01'.
    IF I_STEP = 2.
      READ TABLE I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
           WITH KEY VNAM = 'ZVAR_02'.
      IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
        CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
        L_S_RANGE-LOW      = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW.
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN     = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT      = 'EQ'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
Variable ZVAR_01 shouldn't be ready to input.

Unable to see any Tasks in the WCB or in Telnet.

Tasks are not getting generated in WCB and also in Telnet.
All the task setups are done.
Shipping transactions form --> Status is Released to Warehouse.
But unable to see any Tasks in the WCB or in Telnet.
can any one help me.
Thanks and Regards,
KVR

Hi,
Check whether the release rule you are running has the option Auto Allocate (Inventory Tab) is YES.
If it has NO then you have to run the Move Order Pick slip program with auto allocate move orders as YES and order types as pick wave for material allocation to happen.
once material is allocated you should be able to view them in WCB atleast.
After you find them in WCB but not on telnet then check you resource and device setup.

I am unable to see Shopping cart in the Purchaser's Worklist

Hi All,
i am unable to see Shopping cart in the Purchaser's Worklist after Approval, the status shows "In Purchaser's Worklist".
can any one tell me what will be the problem
Reg.
Ravi

Hi
I think, the user is having authorization role problem or Do this
Also check, in the Extended search option, include the options, Bought on behalf of as checked ('X') and Include Completed Shopping carts as 'X' with Time Frame - (LAst Year) and Status = ALL
Refer to Transaction BBP_MON_SC (Monitor Shopping cart ) to check it whether it's pending in with whom and at what status.
Also, alternatively, you can refer to BBP_PD transaction, Specify the Shopping cart number there in the Object_ID field and you will get the details.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points.

How to refresh a local file in the Reporting Studio?

Hello,
I need to refresh a few local files in the Reporting Studio via script, but obviously command
ActiveDocument.Sections["Sectionname"].Process()
does not work, since it's not a query. What else could I use?
Many thanks for any answer.

I am confused...How is the solution not exactly what I look for ?
You asked how to refresh imported data files via script.
You correctly identified that the Imported file is not a Query.
However if you look at the Object model closely you will notice properties that if you can think outside the box will allow you to treat the imported file like a query section.
ActiveDocument.Sections["data.csv"].ProcessSequenceNum
ActiveDocument.Sections["data.csv"].IncludeInProcessAllBy strategically setting unwanted sections not to process via
ActiveDocument.Sections["Sectionname"].IncludeInProcessAll = falseand setting targeted section(s)...imported file(s) to process via
ActiveDocument.Sections["Sectionname"].IncludeInProcessAll = trueThen
ActiveDocument.ProcessAll()Your section(s) will refresh.
If this is not a satisfactory solution then move the data files to a database or create a DSN entry and OCE to those files instead of importing them.
