Use values from other Excel template on BPC server in BPC report

Hi Guru's,
I'm struggling with the following.
In a BPC report I want to make the rowkeyrange dynamic and centrally adjustable with help of another static excel template placed on the BPC server.
I've tried the following formula in the rowkeyrange cells:
=EVSVR()&"/"&EVAST()&"/"&EVAPP()&"/eExcel/"&[ROWKEYRANGE.xlt]Sheet1!A1
but it keeps reffering to my local file...
Anyone with ideas how to solve this?
Regards,
Vincent Beumer

I believe that to reference the dynamic template file you can use a relative path from the location of the report file in the user's BPC folder. So something like ./wizard/tempate_file.xlt
I agree that it would be nice to be able to reference a file that is actually stored on the BPC server, so that it is pulled down to the client only when needed. Maybe we can convince SAP to deliver a function like this

Hello,
i acheived the multiplication in a different way but i have another problem.I am only considering two columns in the above excel sheet.After multiplying each value with 0.02 i get another array for the two columns with values say a,b,c,d and a1,b1,c1,d1 and so on.
The plot i require is of (a,a1) (a+b,a1+b1) (a+b+c,a1+b1+c1) and so on.
Any ideas that might help me.I am attaching the VI that solves the problem till multiplication.
Thanks in advance.

From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

From two given tables, how do you fetch the values from two columns using values from one column(get values from col.A if col.A is not null and get values from col.B if col.A is null)?

Hi,
Use NVL or COALESCE:
NVL (col_a, col_b)
Returns col_a if col_a is not NULL; otherwise, it returns col_b.
Col_a and col_b must have similar (if not identical) datatypes; for example, if col_a is a DATE, then col_b can be another DATE or it can be a TIMESTAMP, but it can't be a VARCHAR2.
For more about NVL and COALESCE, see the SQL Language manual: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e26088/functions119.htm#sthref1310
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables involved, and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g., 11.2.0.2.0).

Can I export values from an excel spreadsheet into a dropdown field in Acrobat?

I'm creating a form in Acrobat with a dropdown field as an option, I would like to know if I could export the values from an Excel spreadsheet into this field (there are 600 records)?

Sorry this is not something that we currently support. You have to enter your items manually. Once you created you field though you can copy in paste to other forms so you only have to create it once.

How do I create a series of text frames using values from Excel list?

First of all, this is the very first script I'm attempting to write from scratch. I'm completely green at scripting, and I've picked up a few snippets from Adobe's ID scripting guide, but nothing has really stuck yet relating to this particular objective.
My supervisor keeps a master list of ad spaces, with the name of the account, how wide the space is, and how tall the space is, all in an Excel sheet. These spaces can number in the hundreds, and I am stuck manually drawing one rectangle for every space, which takes a very long time.
I'd like to create/have help creating a script that will take these values and "automagically" draw these spaces in the form of text frames, with the width (in columns) and the height (in inches) defined by the values in the master list, as well as the name of each account appearing in the subsequent text frames.
The script doesn't necessarily need to be able to pull the values straight from the Excel sheet; I can transfer the values to a support text file if needed, or directly into the script, changing it as I need it. A big thing (if it is not able to pull right from an Excel sheet) is that the number of spaces changes weekly, and so do the accounts, and the width and the height. Accordingly, it would be ideal if the values from the sheet could be changed easily, so as to create a new set of spaces as needed.
Positioning for each space is not crucial, only height and width. If they all appear on top of each other on the same page, that will be a result for me. The main idea is to not have to draw them all manually, one by one.
To me, this sounds like a tall order, but hopefully some experienced scripters out there can assist me, as I wish to become experienced as well.
So, the TL;DR version:
- Script needs to draw a series of text frames.
- Text frames dimensions need to be defined by width and height values from Excel sheet.
- Text frames must have account name as contents (from account names in Excel sheet).
- Accounts, width and height change every week in the Excel sheet, so must be relatively easy to exchange all of the values.
- The width values are on the Excel sheet as columns. It would be ideal if the script could convert those numbers into multiples of columns as needed.
- (Optional) Script can pull values directly from Excel sheet.
- (Optional) Script can define text frame fill color as gray. (If it works as I think it will, I could just select all the resulting text frames myself and set them all to gray at once... I'm not that lazy )
Thanks in advance to whomever can assist in any possible way, even if it is just a push in the right direction. This script will save 1-2 hours of tedium every week.

Sound like the perfect thing for InDesign Scripting.
I would copy the Excel contents into a text file, to get a format that is easily read from InDesign, and there will automatically be a TAB for each "cell" just using copy/paste.
Here is a piece of code, that you perhaps could go on with (adding variable to change pages and location on page, and other stuff).
The readFileLineByLine function, can be easily re-used with any function using "callback". You simply supply the function to it, that you want to be executed for every line of text that is read:
const COLUMN_WIDTH = 2; // Define the column width in inch
var pageIndex;
var textFramesExported; // not implemented.
// Add a new dokument. Set myDoc to app.activeDocument to use
// the current document instead of creating a new one.
var myDoc = app.documents.add();
// The doSomethingWithTextRow function is called upon for every line of text read.
readFileLineByLine('c:\\test.txt', doSomethingWithTextRow);
function doSomethingWithTextRow(row){
    // We expect the text line to be TAB separated (\t = TAB). We get that from just copying the contents of an
    // excel file into a text document.
    var cells = row.split('\t');
    var companyName = cells[0]; // The Company name in the first slot of the array
    var width = COLUMN_WIDTH * cells[1];
    var height = cells[2];
    // Create a new text frame for every row handled
    if (pageIndex==undefined) pageIndex = 0; // Count up when you have exported a number of texts, I leave this for you to do.
    var newTextFrame = myDoc.pages[pageIndex].textFrames.add();
    newTextFrame.contents = companyName;
    // The text frame is created in the top left corner.
    newTextFrame.geometricBounds = [0, 0, height + ' in', width + ' in']; // Top, Left, Bottom, Right
    // You might want to move the textframes to other positions, keeping track of how many you put out per page.
    newTextFrame.move( [10, 10] );
function readFileLineByLine(path, callbackFn){
    var myFileIn = new File(path);
    if (File.fs == 'Windows'){
        // This was probably added to recognize UTF-8 (even without its start marker?)
        myFileIn.encoding = 'UTF-8';
    myFileIn.open('r');
    var myEncoding = myFileIn.encoding;
    try{
        if (!myFileIn.exists){
            throw('Missing file: ' + myFileIn.fsName)
        var ln = '';
        while(!myFileIn.eof){
            // Read the lines from the file, until an empty line is found [now as a remark].
            ln = myFileIn.readln()
            // if(ln !='' && ln!='\n'){
               // Call the function supplied as argument
               callbackFn(ln);
    }catch(e){
        alert(e);
        gCancel = true;
    finally{
        myFileIn.close();
The file in C:\ in my example was saved as UTF-8 and looks like this (showing hidden characters):

Hi Niel,
are those variables A and B used for the same characteristics?
If not, maybe you could try to put variable A also to the 2nd query as dummy variable, that would not affect the query... Then in WAD you would see that just once and then you should be able see the variable A in the step 2 in user exit.....
But I guess, that has already struck you.....

I believe the XSL to be correct because when I change it to a count it works and when I go into BI Publisher 11g and create the query in the data model and then create a summary from it, the summary is created.
Can anyone help?

I went back to basics and created reports (via EXCEL templates) like I was asking based on good old EMP and DEPT and I found exactly the same problems I was mentioning. I looked at the templates provided but they were not calculating totals, like me they were selecting them and then just displaying them on the page.
Anyway, I have narrowed it down to the fact that when you do aggregates like sum(.//SAL) this works if you have a salary for every value. I did an outer join with DEPT so I did have empty rows and why I still experienced the problems.
Basically XSL does not like adding (including using the sum function) values that effectively have nulls in them which is why I get the cast/constructor errors because it is trying to turn a NaN value to a number and does not (or cannot) do it.
You need to either have a value in every row of your column (maybe possible by selecting nvl in your query) and make sure that you check the "create empty nodes" checkbox in the data model of BI Publisher.,
the other solution is an xsl solution where you would have to make sure that you only added non null values and for that you would have to investigate xsl blogs.
It is, by the way, why my count worked because it is just counting that the record exists it does not care what the element content is or isn't.

Report Builder Wizard and Parameter Creation with values from other data source e.g. data set or views for non-IT users or Business Analysts

Hi,
"Report Builder is a report authoring environment for business users who prefer to work in the Microsoft Office environment.
You work with one report at a time. You can modify a published report directly from a report server. You can quickly build a report by adding items from the Report Part Gallery provided by report designers from your organization." - As mentioned
on TechNet.
I wonder how a non-technical business analyst can use Report Builder 3 to create ad-hoc reports/analysis with list of parameters based on other data sets.
Do they need to learn TSQL or how to add and link parameter in Report Builder? then How they can add parameter into a report. Not sure what i am missing from whole idea behind Report builder then?
I have SQL Server 2012 STD and Report Builder 3.0 and want to train non-technical users to create reports as per their need without asking to IT department.
Everything seems simple and working except parameters with list of values e.g. Sales year List, Sales Month List, Gender etc. etc.
So how they can configure parameters based on Other data sets?
Workaround in my mind is to create a report with most of columns and add most frequent parameters based on other data sets and then non-technical user modify that report according to their needs but that way its still restricting users to
a set of defined reports?
I want functionality like "Excel Power view parameters" into report builder which is driven from source data and which is only available Excel 2013 onward which most of people don't have yet.
So how to use Report Builder. Any other thoughts or workaround or guide me the purpose of Report Builder, please let me know.
Many thanks and Kind Regards,

Please give me your valuable inputs to solve this issue.
Thanks

Varma,
Thanks for the reply, i have already checked the link but it doesn't have syntax to use Trunc,substr etc. functions.
Also date in example is - "1996-02-03T00:00:00.000-07:00" , but in my case date format is different "2012/01/01 00:00:00".

</html>(One note though, instead of using
<%
request.getParameter("someField");
%> you can now use the shorter EL syntax
${param.someField} - but I don't know if this short syntax requires one to install JSTL 1.1 . If it doesn't work you might have to install JSTL 1.1 if you want to use the short syntax. )

How to read the value from other cubes ??

Dear All,
I have requirement to do some calculation where part of number there must be got from other info-cube.
e.g.
Cube 1
Has: Ch1, Ch2, Kf1, Kf2, Kf3
Cube 2
Has: Ch3, Ch4, Kf4, Kf5
Then the requirement need to compute:
KF1 = KF4 * KF3
Let say that our planning area use Cube 1.
Means, to get the value for KF1 we need to read data from cube 2.
I've tried to use this function: RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ
But it can't fetch the data. It caused when we go "manage" to
cube 1, the status for the corresponding request is yellow.
If we change the status into green, then we can get the record by that function.
My Questions is
Is there other way that can fetch data from other cube ??
Do you have any suggestions ??
Or ..
In my explanation above, is there some thing missing ?
Regards,
Niel.

Hi Olivier,
Really thanks for your response...
But i still have distraction regarding your preceding posting ..
in a query, yellow requests from a trans cube can be read with the variable 0S_RQTRA (most current data) on 0REQUID.
I had a look into the corresponding exit ( FM = RSVAREXIT_0S_RQTRA ) and can see that SAP is filling 0REQUID with VALUE 'REQ_TRANS'
You mean, that we can check what status happening in corresponding info-provider by using this function: RSVAREXIT_0S_RQTRA . Am i right ?
Could you clear me up what the objective is for ?
I've tried your suggested function:
RSSEM_INFOPROV_READ
And yes it can take it .. But why it couldn't fetch all data ?
And also in RSSEM FG, i saw this function:
RSSEM_INFOPROV_READ_RFC
Do you know what the objective is for ??
Still need your guidance.
Regards,
Niel.

How to use value from Custom Select tag

Hi,
I have made a custom tag for html element select. It is a very basic tag with the selection of one vaule. I am able to populate the list using custom tag in JSP but i am not able to optain the value from that. Kindly see my jsp code.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>Expenses Report</title>
</head>
<body>
<center>
<table summary="layout">
<tr>
<td>Month:</td>
<td>
<tt:Select name="month" from="${ExpensesDBO}"/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<c:if test="${fn:length(param.month) > 0}">
<table summary="layout" border="1">
<tr>
<td align="center">Year</td>
<td align="center">Month</td>
<td align="center">Shopping</td>
<td align="center">Groceries</td>
<td align="center">Fixed Expenses</td>
<td align="center">Transportation</td>
</tr>
<tt:Expenses var="exp" username="${sessionScope.user}" from="${ExpensesDBO}">
<tr>
<td>${exp.year}</td>
<td>${exp.month}</td>
<td>${exp.shopping}</td>
<td>${exp.groceries}</td>
<td>${exp.fixedExpenses}</td>
<td>${exp.transportation}</td>
</tr>
</tt:Expenses>
</table>
</c:if>
</center>
</body>
</html>
Basically based on the selected value I want to show the same page with the details including page with the default value in select list.
I have made a generic select custom tag to be used within the application.
Regards,
Rahul.

If both tables come from the same data source, join the two tables in one data set rather than two as shown. If they are from different data sources, use a 'join data set'

Use values from other Excel template on BPC server in BPC report
