Using B.O. Publisher and Scheduler to post Deski reports to repository

Hello All,
Is there anyway to duplicate the AddComplexFilter vba api function that was available in B.O. 5.1.x and earlier with B.O. XI Publisher and Scheduler and then post the series of results to the repository under different report names in both pdf and excel formats and accessible using OpenDocument URLs?
I am trying to duplicate a custom designed B.O. 5.1.x process in B.O. XI 3.1 but I'd like to make it easier to administer and maintain and avoid writing code if possible.
Thanks in advance for your help and insights,
James Young

Current (XI R2) version of ReportEngine API only supports refreshing/viewing functionality for Desktop Intelligence documents. Document modification/creation is only supported with Web Intelligence documents. Queries aren't modifiable for Deski using ReportEngine API - you can only do so using Desktop Intelligence Reporter SDK, which is COM based.Sincerely,Ted Ueda

Try outputting it as a MP4 or M4V
If Final Cut won't output it, Mpegstreamclip will convert it. So will Quicktime if you have the pro version.

Possible to publish and schedule custom reports in DPM console?

Hello
I've made a slight adjustment to the Tape Management (MediaDetails) report using Report Builder and saved it to the report server creatively named MediaDetails2.
It does not show up in the DPM console, Is this possible?
I would also like to schedule this Report to be sent via email at a regular intervals just like the built-in reports.
DPM 2012 R2 UR4
Thanks

Hi
I don't think it's possible to have it show up on the DPM console, however you can subscribe to the report and have it mailed like other DPM reports.

The uses of PO - Contract and Schedule Agreements

Dear friends !
does anyone knows the differences between
1 - PO
2 - Contract
3 - Sched.Agreement
The integration with MRP and other modules ?
We need this to start an study on use this documents in our enterprise.
best regards
Ale

PO is a it's a legal purchasing document used for procuring goods/services from Vendor..
there are various account assignments & Item catogeroies
combinations for which you can procure..
Contract:- It is called outline agreement and used for procurement for longer duration, as it provides you to get discounts based on your requirement.
Sched.Agreement: It is also called outline agreement, used for for procurement for longer duration on specified delivery periods..
The diff between Contract & SA is that ,
for Contract there is no specified time.. we give only period..
ex: I say I need 100 tons of steel from period 01/01/2008 to 31/12/2008..
I may procure the steel as and when required or I may procure
the total Qty of steel on 31/12/2008.
But the SA will have diff schedules for delivery of the material..
we will define the dates & time at which the material needs to be delivered in the SA itself...
The integration with MRP and other modules ?
MRP is an integration between PP & MM

Install and configure Tomcat post-Crystal Reports Server implementation?

Scenario - have Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 already installed using WACS and IIS. Everything runs great. Want to add in SAP Crystal Dashboard Design. Looking through the documentation for Dashboard Design tells me I need to:
1. Install SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise or Crystal Reports Server.
2. Install SAP BusinessObjects Xcelsius Enterprise 2008.
3. Install Live Office.
4. Install SAP BusinessObjects Web Services.
5. Add the Live Office keycode to the Central Management Console
Made it past 3 and am hung up on 4. According to documentation for Unified Web Services, it looks like I need Tomcat installed, but Crystal Reports Server doesn't offer an expand installation option. There also doesn't seem to be any good documentation included with SAP Crystal Dashboard Design on installing web services - if it's required, why isn't it included and where can I find the documentation (assuming it's different than the Unified Web Services Administrator's Guide I found).
It seems odd that a customer who might want to purchase an add-on for their Crystal Reports Server implementation wouldn't be able to easily add to their product..
1) Can I install web services to Crystal Reports Server using just the WACS or is Tomcat required? The admin guide indicates WACS is not supported for apps that use web services, like Live Office. Is that an absolute?
2) If Tomcat is required, can I install and configure it for an existing Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 implementation?
3) If i can install Tomcat on a server with an existing Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 implementation, is there a specific guide to doing so?

Hi Colin,
What is the exact version of BO/Crystal Enterprise.
If it is BOXI R2 then follow below mentioned steps.
To manually install the ActiveX Viewer on the client computer:
1. Copy the ActiveXViewer.cab file from the server to the client computer, and extract its contents to a temporary folder.
2. Move the files Crviewer.dll, Crviewer9.dll, Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll to the System32 folder. Keep this folder visible.
3. On the Start menu, click Run. The Run dialog box appears.
4. In the Open box, type "regsvr32" and then drag and drop the Crviewer.dll file icon from the System32 folder onto the Run dialog box.
5 Click OK.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the files Sviewhlp.dll, and Swebrs.dll.
You may still be prompted by the browser, choose more options and never install to avoid being prompted. The viewer should work after that.
Thanks,
Purna.

What is Best Practice for Publishing and Subscribing to Multicast Video P2P

Please, could someone help with an issue I am having in developing a peer to peer video chatting application? My application uses multicast to publish and subscribe to video streams of NetGroup members. I'm listening for the NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect event, and I'm calling the following function:
protected function onPeerConnect(event:NetStatusEvent):void{
                var peerID:String = event.info.peerID;
                // create user vo here
                // user Value Object for incoming stream
                userVO = new User();
                userVO.peerID = peerID;
                netGroup.addNeighbor(peerID);
                receiveStream(userVO);
protected function receiveStream(userVO:User):void{
                // init netstream
                var stream:NetStream = new NetStream(nc,groupspec.groupspecWithAuthorizations());
                stream.receiveVideo(true);
                stream.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,netStatus);
                // init panel
                // alter to use custom component instead
                var panel:Panel = new Panel();
                panel.id = "panel" + panel_seq;
                panel.title = "Panel" + panel_seq;
                panel.width=322;
                panel.height=281;
                panel.x = 50 * panel_seq + 200;
                panel.y = 25 * panel_seq + 200;
                var cpanelContent:Array = new Array();
                panel.controlBarContent=cpanelContent;
                panel.controlBarVisible=true;
                // init video
                var video:Video = new Video();
                video.width=320;
                video.height=240;
                video.attachNetStream(stream);
                stream.play("media");
                // init videoWrapper
                var videoWrapper:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
                videoWrapper.id = "wrapper" + panel_seq;
                videoWrapper.addChild(video);
                // add to display list
                addElement(panel);
                panel.addElement(videoWrapper);
                // drag and drop panel
                panel.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,function(event:MouseEvent):void{
                    panel.startDrag();
                    addElement(panel);
                panel.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,function(event:MouseEvent):void{
                    panel.stopDrag();
                panel_seq++;// used for unique panel id
                userVO.panel = panel;// reference to the panel
                userVO.stream = stream;
                userVO.video = video;
                peers.addItem(userVO);
I am confused on this:
var stream:NetStream = new NetStream(nc,groupspec.groupspecWithAuthorizations());
What should I pass as the second parameter to establish an incoming NetStream with the publishing peer? I've seen people put in the farID but I haven't figured out how to access it. What is the difference between event.info.peerID and event.info.neighbor? And since I'm multicasting to the group do I need to pass in the groupspec or the farID? I would love some clarification on this.
What is happening is this:
When I join the group, and there are two members in the group already, I'll get three panels with videos. However, duplicate video streams are being attached. When I inspect the peerStreams array I'm seeing a length of 0, so does that mean that no one is subscribing to my published netstream? If so, how do I specifically subscribe to each published stream in the group? Sometimes if I step through in debug mode, I get three separate camera feeds in their prospective panels, but if I run it will have duplicates. I thought at first that this was a referencing error because all of the NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect events where happening all at the same time and perhaps that is the reason for the duplicates?
My only other thought is that maybe I'm multicasting one guys stream to the whole group, but I'm getting varying results so I want to know what is the correct way to grab, in sequence, a NetGroup members' published netstream and be sure that all other members are subscribing to my NetStream as well?
Also, I am using Value Objects to keep track of who my group members are, is that data shared with the group or is it not accessible to all members?   or should I use another method of keeping track of my group members?
Please help! Thank you in advance!

Extending the beta! How to compose and post defect reports.

There is no such thing as bug-free software, and LR is no exception to that. Even more, v1.0 releases, even those with long beta programs, can be more brittle than expected. We've already seen a few things that look like real defects which could be addressed in a future release. This is normal and expected, and now a team at Adobe will be dedicated to maintaining the LR release into the future.
This posting is sort of asking the question "how can we help", with a fair bit of opinionated ranting of my own on the subject. Take my comments with a grain of salt, of course, but I'm not sure I say anything that hasn't already been said a million times before.
Firstly, is there a place where bug reports should be posted that Adobe will see? Is there a document that describes how Adobe would prefer such reports to come in, perhaps with suggestions for supplemental material they'd like to see passed along with the defect report? Not only does this provide a place where Adobe can track raw bug reports, it can make perturbed users feel better, since they've been able to do something specific and active.
Full disclosure: I am a software developer by trade, and I maintain shipped releases of code for a living. I know how I like to see problem reports and it drives me *crazy* when a we get a vague report formatted with no punctuation, in all lower-case, containing no specific details. Usually these come with bizarre screen-shots embedded into a Microsoft Word file. Not helpful.
It drives me crazy because I know there is a bug in there somewhere, it just isn't necessarily the bug seen by the end-user or understood at first blush by the developer. I call this the "real bug", and it can be hard to suss out, sometimes.
I assume that the following basics are /probably/ helpful when reporting defects against LR v1.0:
- System details. At least the exact platform version and release. Possibly with a short run-down on CPU speed, amount of RAM. Mac users should probably be sure to clarify what CPU they are running.
- Clear steps to reproduce, if possible. Describe the problem exactly as you see it, being sure to use the language and nomenclature that the application uses. Capitalize app-specific controls exactly as you see them in the app, to make it clear what you are doing.
Try to reduce the problem to the barest set of operations.
- For things like "hangs" and "crashes", I'm guessing that most supported platforms have a way of capturing these details. I cannot and will not speak for Adobe. But! if I was looking at a crash or hang, I'd want any and all crash logs (OS X) or Dr. Watson (Win32) that were related to the former and the sample output (OS X) or Process Explorer dump (Win32) for the latter.
Details on how and where to post defect reports would be nice. Sounds like a FAQ item, at the least!
Finally, here are some things that drive me crazier and I feel are *not* helpful:
- Defect reports that intersperse observed behaviour with guesses about what the problem really is. No one knows better the potential places where symptoms could stem from except those people maintaining that codebase. I'm a smart guy and code for a living. I would never presume to know the precise inner-workings of Lightroom without access to the source and probably a run at it in a development environment.
- Arguing for how terrible or disastrous a particular "bug" is, and how it needs to be addressed as critical for immediate correction. Everyone, including me, finds their own bugs most critical. The problem is that software maintenance requires putting everything into perspective, evaluating each defect on its own merit, as well as how risky a fix for the defect might be. This last part cannot be minimized. Changing code incurs risk. The idea is to carefully shepherd a new release into each new version while maintaining integrity and stability. No matter how bad a bug is, introducing a fix that simply

I agree with how you think bugs should be reported. For now, I'd suggest posting them here, in detail. Some of us can relay them to the appropriate places, at least until we hear from Adobe personnel about an official location or method for the average end user.

How Both View Selector and Column Selector in one report dashboard section

Can we use a view selector and column selector inside a report in one section of the dashboard?
env: obiee 10g
Appreciate any links and pointers
Thanks in Advance

hi kris,
Can we use a view selector and column selector inside a report in one section of the dashboard?Here view selector is nothing but having multiple views and selecting depends on what end user want to see.You are saying in a single report in once section only.
If it is a single report you can go with using a column selector.
Note:-View selector and column selector combination can be used.....but it looks wierd as you need to select view at the same time the corresponding column.
UPDATED POST
Yes you can have it by creating different compound layouts with pivots in it.
Cheers,

Export to excel using deski report

Hi,
We are using BOXIR2 SP4 version. We have a deski report that generates excel output file and it was working fine until yesterday. Today that report successfully exported excel output file, but I was not able to open excel file and it gives me below error:
Excel found unreadable content in 'abc.xls'. Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes.
Now, if I select Yes, then it opens blank sheet.
I found that today there was a new record in the report for new customer. When I filtered out that customer record it works fine. So I thought may be something wrong with that customer.
After that I filtered out 10 existing customers and then also I was able to open excel sheet with new customer record as well. So, I tried few other things to resolve the issue, if I reduce the length of Customer_name field from 35 to 30 by using SubStr(), it works fine. If I add a new field Customer ID to the left of Customer_name field, it works fine.
This is a strange issue. I have suggested our client the above option that have worked. But if client is not OK with it, I will still have to find the root cause and resolve this issue.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Nikhil

with your product version there are little options you have.
1. Upgrade to the latest SP and patch on XIR2 (SP6, fp6.4) and re-test
2. Upgrade to current product release.
3. figure out what has changed and how in the report and reverse those changes.

PDFs using BI publisher and special characters - pound sterling

I have a table with character strings which include the £ pound sterling sign.
If I create an xml file from the table using the escape sequence for the pound sign & # 163; and load it into BI publisher, the pdf renders correctly using an rtf template.
If I include the pound sign in the rtf template itself the pdf renders correctly and if I use a report query in Apex based on the table, and an rtf template then the pdf renders correctly.
However there is a limit to the number of columns that can be sent to BI via the report query - we have found this to be 119 columns. For more than this we have been using a stored function to return xml data as a clob and use the clob to generate the pdf with the rtf report layout (using get_print_document). This method works fine but the pound sign is not rendered correctly (appears as "?").
The NLS_LANG is set to english_united kingdom in the database and in BI publisher. The locale in bi publisher is en_GB. BI will create the pdf correctly with the pound sign if using a standard xml file (with escape seq for pound) so I am sure it is not a language issue in BI/Apex.
Any ampersands in the xml cause the pdf to fail completely and we cannot represent special characters with a sequence containing the ampersand for this reason. I have tried "& # 163;" and "& amp;#163;" and variations and have also tried using CDATA, none of which gives the correct pdf output. I have also tried to switch the encoding to Windows-1252 or ISO-8859-1 in the header of the xml (xml generated by stored procedure so can control this), but this gives incorrect results too.
We also need to send other special characters to BI via get_print_document and apex (bullet points, ampersands, dashes ) but cannot use the escape sequences because of the ampersand problem.
Has anyone had any success with this?
Is there any plan ( for a future version of Apex) to increase the number of columns that can be used in report query using Apex/BI publisher?
Thanks
Kathryn

Hi Kathryn
I've had exactly the same problem as you've mentioned.
Firstly, I've also found that I cannot select more than 119 columns from a view using a report query and have opted to the use the stored function to return the xml (same as you).
After conducting a lot of searching and experimenting i've found that you can use the following escape characters in REPLACE in your stored function:-
'£' can be replaced with CHR(194)||CHR(163)
'%' can be replaced with '%25'
'&' can be replaced with '%26amp;'
I found the above escape characters from the xml file or by opening the xml file in Wordpad. Therefore I'm sure you'll be able to find the escape characters for the other symbols that you mentioned i.e. bullet points, dashes etc.
I hope this has helped. Good luck and let me know if you get any developments with the limitation on the number of columns that can be selected from a report query as this would save a lot of trouble (as I'm sure you're aware).
Thanks

Using Premier Elements - no sound in video after "Share & Publish" and exporting to my computer

I'm using Premiere Elements 13 on a PC (bought the disc and it's installed and registered.) I created a music video using many video clips and 3 different audio tracks. All audio was unlinked from the video. Some of the audio is from video AVIMovie and some is MP3 format. It plays just fine while I am editing it and after I save and then open to continue editing. I used the Publish and Share to export it to my computer. After it finished I tried playing it - in Windows Media Player - and there is no audio. What am I doing wrong?

My animate file seems to work fine locally, but the images aren't linked properly when I publish and post them to a web server.

I have an HTML5 animation that I am working on. When I preview it locally, it seems to work fine, but when I publish and post it on our web server, it doesn't seem to be able to find the images. The images are all in the images folder and it all seems to be pointing the right location, but it isn't showing up properly on the web server.
If anyone has any insight, I would greatly appreciate it.

The site runs fine offline. If I am watching it locally, it seems to be OK. The problem only occurs when I copy all of the content to the host. I have also checked to be sure that the images are in the correct folder and uploaded.
Here is one of the images that is definitely live, but is showing as unlinked/missing in the HTML5 version.
