Universe Object Description in WEBI

I think this question has been asked before, but I haven't been able to find a response.
1)  Is there a way to dynamically put the object description entered in Universe Designer and have it show up in a WEBI document with current built in functionality (no SDK)?
2)  Is there a way to notify the client that the report fetched partial results?
Thanks for your help,
Gera Mats

1) Is there a way to dynamically put the object description entered in Universe Designer and have it show up in a WEBI document with current built in functionality (no SDK)?
No. Not in the report. The description does show in Java Report Panel (you probably already knew that..)
2) Is there a way to notify the client that the report fetched partial results?
I presume this is BOE XI+. You could use the
=DocumentPartiallyRefreshed()
function. This returns a boolean value depending on whether or not the document was partially refreshed.

  • Longer timeout setting for universe object descriptions popup tooltip

    When building a report using the Java Report panel, if I hover my mouse over a universe object the description will appear in a popup tooltip-style box.  However, the description only displays for five seconds, which is not enough time to read the whole description.
    How can I make the popup tooltip display for 15 seconds?

    The answer I got from Business Objects is that the timeout is part of the .jar file and cannot be changed.

  • Query builder how to list objects, description for universe

    need query to list objects, object type, object description, object hidden property for selected universe

    All information about Universes available using Query Builder can be queried like this:
    SELECT * FROM CI_APPOBJECTS WHERE SI_KIND = 'Universe'
    Information such as objects used, etc, needs to be retrieved through the SDK:
    A sample for this exists in the developer library:

  • Can we do mass update object descriptions in universe?

  • Two universe objects on the same graph axis

    I am trying to create a bar-stacked graph in the Web Intelligence document. I add \[Period\] universe object to X axis, \[Total\] object to Y axis. Then I want to add two objects to Z axis:
    \[Sector\] (has values: Europe, Asia, America) and \[Status\] (has values: Active, Validating)
    The problem that it makes a cartezian product between all value, so the output is:
    Europe/Active
    Europe/Validating
    Asia/Active
    Asia/Validating
    America/Active
    America/Validating
    But, what I want is:
    Europe
    Asia
    America
    Active
    Validaing
    Is there any way to do this? Maybe with the help of some universe parameters, or REBean SDK...

  • How to identify reports that are using a specific universe object?

    Any idea how to use BO Auditor or Metadata Manager to identify webi reports that are using a specific universe object or universe prompt in the report SQL?

    Hi Samuel,
    In case you are using BOXIR2 you can do this by editing the crystalenterprise.webi.xml file.
    Replace the CrystalEnterprise.Webi.xml file (Take a backup) with the edited one.                                                                               
    Path where you can find this file- Tomcat/webapps/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/CrystalEnterprise.Webapps/ePortfolio/plugins                                                                               
    Paste the Custom Documentation folder in Tomcat\webapps\businessobjects\enterprise115\desktoplaunch\ 
    May I know your email Id so that I can send you the edited crystalenterprise.webi.xml file.

  • BO Universe Objects

    Hi all
    I want a list of all the objects in my universe, with the foll details :
    Class Name, Description, Object Name, Object Description,SQLCode(definition).
    Is there a query I can use to query the system tables to get this information.
    Please help!
    Thanks.

    You can open the Universe in the Universe Designer tool and save to PDF.  The PDF will list out the objects, but will not get you all the info you require.
    To get what you'd want, you'd have to write a program using the Universe Designer SDK, described [here|http://devlibrary.businessobjects.com/BusinessObjectsXI3/en/diagrams/unvsdk_com_omd_12.zip]

  • Object description using server api

    Can someone provide me a sample or at least get me started on how to query an object's description using server api?
    I'm trying to create an adaptive tag to output object descriptions for pages and communities.

    I don't know if this would matter here, but I've noticed that you're reusing an identical UUID (clsID) in multiple possibly unrelated places. Maybe this is creating a conflict that corrects itself somehow when using the admin UI to re-save the web service. I'd look at that first.
    If that isn't the issue, I'd try viewing the source and take a look at what the control for saving a web service does (WebServiceRepost) and see if it is doing anything additional/different from what you are doing in your code.

  • Dimension vs Detail Universe objects

    What are the pros and cons of creating Dimension vs Detail Universe objects?
    We have created our Universes with both types to logically group some dimension objects with details that can only be one value of it's associated dimension object. We have found that in Webi, Detail objects cannot be merged where two or more queries are written. We are on XIR2 SP2 and are planning to upgrade to XI 3.0 soon. Are any issues resolved in XI 3.0?
    Any response would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Jacques,
    Thanks for the helpful reply.  If I could as an example, we have several instances where we have defined dates as dimension objects in a universe.  Of course a date can have many detail attributes and for these we created them as attributes under the date dimension.  So for dimension Month_End_Date we have attributes such as Month_End_Date_Year or Month_End_Date_Quarter; and as mentioned we cannot merge on these attributes.  Perhaps one persons dimension is anotheru2019s attribute; potato, potahto.  While still somewhat of a newbie with Business Objects it just seems that merging of attributes should be allowed. 
    Again thanks for your earlier reply and listening to me rant a little.

  • Universe Objects Displayed Via Live Office

    Post Author: Natali
    CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
    Universe Objects Displayed Via Live Office have different order list than these same Objects are in Webi
    Is there known resolution?
    Thank you
    Natali

    Hi Gloria,
    I had a look at this in XI release 3.0 and received the same issue. The only way I could get this to work was to use the FormatNumber() method. This returns the value as a string, which live office represents with the trailing 0.
    So if the cell value was 12345.6, then FormatNumber([my cell]; "#,##0.00") will display 12345.60. This will display correctly in Excel (except that it is justified as text) when brought in by live office.
    This more of a work around than a fix, so you may want to raise a case.
    Regards
    Alan

    brittanyesparks,
    One thing often tried first is to create a new document and File>Place the corrupted one to see how much may be rescued that way (remember to tick Paste remembers Layers in the Layer palette flyout/dropdown first, and to untick it afterwards).
    Here is a website where you can see whether it can rescue the file, and if it can, you may pay for a subscription to have it done,
    http://www.recoverytoolbox.com/buy_illustrator.html
    and another similar website,
    http://markzware.com/adobe-software/fix-illustrator-file-unknown-error-occurred-pdf2dtp-fi le-recovery/
    As far as I remember, the former is for Win and the latter for Mac.
