Variable input values issue with Portal reports in WAD

Hi Gurus,
We have issue with our reports which are created in WAD and when executed through CRM portal. We are executing the report with some selection criteria by changing default values, and once we get the out put we use SAVEAS option to save the report to favourites. But  the issue arises when we open the reprot again by clicking OPEN tab next to SAVEAS button. It opens our report, but the selection screen vaues are getting changed to default instead of showing the values which we entered before saving the report.
ex: we have fiscalyear/period: default value is 001.2009 - 010.2009, but i changed the value to 001.2010 - 010.2010 and saved the out put of the report. when i reopen the report useing open option, it is showing 001.2009 - 010.2009 in input screen.
Please let me know if some one has come accross this issue, or is it standard SAP behaviour. It is working fine when executed through Query designer. This is not related to personlization of variabl.es.
Regards,
Yada

Hi Hari,
Thanks for your promp response...but is there any settings to get the variable values with out saving as variant, because its working fine when executing through query designer....

  • Issues with BEx Reports in SAP Enterprise Portal

    Hello Experts,
    I am facing issues with BEx reports integrated in portal. Below are more details:
    Scenario 1:
    Execute a BEx report in the portal, save it in 'My Portfolio' using 'Save As' button. Now open the saved report from 'My Portfolio'. Below is the issue for this scenario:
    When I open the saved report, I get 2 error messages and 1 info message at the top of the report. They are as follows:
    The metadata of 'ITE' 'TEMPLATE_PARAMETERS' are incorrect for parameter 'COMMAND_PROCESSING'
    The metadata of 'ITE' 'FILTER_PANE_ITEM' are incorrect for parameter 'TEXT_WRAPPING'
    Variables for characteristic Fiscal year/period[0FISCPER] cannot be processed
    Scenario 2:
    Execute a BEx report in the portal, save it in 'BEx Portfolio' or 'Favourites' using 'Save As' button. Now open the saved report and click on 'Send' button. As expected, the BEx broadcaster wizard should appear but, it shows '400 BAD HTTP REQUEST'. While if I open the report (not the saved one) and click on 'Send' button, it works.
    Helpful pointers appreciated.
    Thanks
    Vikash

    HI Suman,
    I am not adding the report to favourite using browser favourite. Below is the flow:
    Run the report in portal.
    There is a 'Save As' button at the top of the report. When I click that button, I get a pop-up with 3 tabs  for saving the report.:
    Favourite
    BEx Portfolio
    My Portfolio
    save the report in the favorites or BEx portfolio tab and then open it and press 'Send' button
    BEx Broadcaster Wizard should appear but instead of that, it shows '400 BAD HTTP REQUEST'.
    If I press send for unsaved report, then BEx broadcaster Wizard is shown.
    Thanks,

  • Missing user variable input values in export to excel functionality

    Hi,
    I have a problem in exporting data into excel, I could able to export the data with complete result rows but i am not able to see the user input variable values.
    To be in detail: The moment i execute the report in web, user gives the initial variable values as selections and run a report. The data will be displayes as per the user selections. Then the user clicks on export to excel (designed as per SAP how to), now the excel data shows the body of the results but the initial input variable values are missing.
    It would be really good if we also export variable values along with the report output.
    If any of you solved this requirement, could you please help me in solving this.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Here is a solution to make visible the Values of variables you selected in the Excel File.....
    1.Create a Web Template with an Analysis Item and Info Field Item
    2.Assign the Data Provider which contains varaibles to the Analysis Item
    3.Assign the same Data Provider to an Info Field Item
    4.In the Properties of Info Field Item,
    Set the Visibility as "Visible"
    Data Binding as "Variable Value" and mention the varaible
    Save the Web template->Execute and Export to Excel
    Now you will get it in Excel file
    For more info....

  • User issue with a report supply planning area today monthly

    this is a support issue....the user has an issue with a report supply planning area today monthly.  The user is getting wrong values in BW, it sums PLOs and POs under production (config).  for eg:  BW says we are producing 46T while in R/3 we have 4T.

    The issue was related to the heap size being too much and as a result the Class block memory was not getting enough memory. I think we can make a use of -XXCompressedRefs:32 parameter in the Java start up to allow the heap size to increase till 32 Gb.

  • Performance Issue with VL06O report

    Hi,
    We are having performance issue with VL06O report, when run with forwarding agent. It is taking about an hour with forwarding agent. The issue is with VBPA table and we found one OSS note, but it is for old versions. ours is ECC 5.0. Can anybody know the solution? If you guys need more information, please ask me.
    Thanks,
    Surya

    Sreedhar,
    Thanks for you quick response. Indexes were not created for VBPA table. basis people tested by creating indexes and gave a report that it is taking more time with indexes than regular query optimizer. this is happening in the funtion forward_ag_selection.
    select vbeln lifnr from vbpa
         appending corresponding fields of table lt_select
         where     vbeln in ct_vbeln
         and     posnr eq posnr_initial
         and     parvw eq 'SP'
         and     lifnr in it_spdnr.
    I don't see any issue with this query. I give more info later

  • BI Reports taking + sign for Node/Hierarchy input values in BI Portal

    We have BI Portal 7.01 SP 7. We are facing issues while running BI reports as it is appending + sign for the input which are of type Node/Hierarchy. Due to this we are getting error as invalid input:
    Input "\+CG1000(0SEM_CGCOMP)" for Company has invalid format
    However the same report runs fine when we are executing through Bex Analyzer without any + sign in the input values.
    The + sign is not coming if the input value is a number or a text. Its gets appended only to Node/Hierarchy type inputs.
    Your help to resolve this will be highly appreciated.

  • Pass Input Values to BI Publisher Report Layout from BI Answers Dashboard

    Has anyone been able successfully pass user input values from a BI Answers dashboard prompt into a BI Publisher report? I'm trying add user inputted text (notes, comments) into a report he/she runs.
    I've been trying with no success. I've matched the name of the presenation variables in Answers to the parameter definitions in BI Publisher.
    I've declared the parameter in the RTF template as below:
    1. Declaration
    <?param@begin:param1?>
    2. retrive value:
    <?$param1?>
    If i run it directly from BI Publisher, there is no issue. When I pass the value from an Answers dashboard, the text is never displayed in the report?
    Any suggestions?

    I think you are overestimating the power of the SCM_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module.  By supplying a URL as the value of the input text, it isn't going to magically go read the content from the remote location and convert that to a binary string.  It is going to take whatever value you supply in th importing TEXT parameter convert that to binary.  In other words it is literally converting the string http://xxx/test.xls to binary.  You will need some other mechanism to read the content from the remote location into ABAP memory before you can process it.  You will need to use the CL_HTTP_CLIENT class or call some sort of web service to retrive the content.

  • Issue with Bex report - key Figures not populating correctly.

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing an issue with a Bex report. There are three key figures of data type DATE having "Dec - Counter or amount field with comma and sign" datatype. After executing the query, in the report, for some sales documents the key figure fields are coming as 'X' and rest others are coming correctly in the date format as mm\dd\yyyy.
    When i check in the cube, these key figures shows values in decimal format and not in date format. The conversion is happening during execution.
    Pleas show me some light on how to identify the cause of getting 'X' for some Sales documents in the report eventhough some are coming correctly.
    Thanks,
    Anamika
    Edited by: Anamika Soni on Mar 12, 2010 10:48 AM

    Hi,
    The infobject has been defined with datatype "DATE" only. It has also been mapped from datasource to infocube correctly as these key figures are populating correctly for some of the sales documents in the report. It is not like that for all the sales documents the key figures are not converting properly.
    Some Sales documents are not converting into the date fields but for some conversion happens properly in the BEx report. This is the issue.
    Please guide accordingly.
    Many thanks,
    Anamika

  • Issue with Crystal Report based on 2 different data sources

    Hi there,
    I am having a frustrating problem with a report I've designed and I'm hoping someone might be able to assist please.
    The report has 3 different prompts, each of which is based on a dynamic list of values retrieved via views within a SQL server db.
    We are wanting to introduce the use of Universes as much as possible, so the data returned is based off a BO Universe data source query.
    I have uploaded the report into BO and have provided the necessary database logon information for the report (in the "Process" > "Database" settings in the CMC) for both the direct db datasource connection (for the views) and the BO Universe query connection.
    When the report is run however, the report still prompts for the database user name & password credentials. I have triple checked my db connection settings, and also have "Use same database logon as when report is run" set to true. I also tested a cut-down version of the report without the Universe connection with the same db logon credentials I provided and there was no credentials prompt when it was run, proving those values are accepted.
    Does anyone know why this is happening & if there is a way around it? Alternatively, is there some way that a report prompt may be based on a dynamic list of values retrieved via a Universe connection? This way I'd be able to remove the db connection for the views and have the report solely based on the Universe.
    Another issue that occurs is out of the 3 prompts, a user can select a User Name OR Number, and also must select a Period. However if the User Name or Number is left blank the message "The value is not valid" is shown. So I tried a cut-down version of the report with only the BO Universe as a data source (static prompts) and this didn't occur, i.e. I was allowed to leave either the User Name or Number empty.
    I hope this all of makes sense - let me know if not. If anyone is able to help out with any of this it would be very much appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Marco

  • Variable input values in the query are displayed wrong

    Hi experts,
    I executed a report and in the variable input screen it asks for a key date and company code.
    We entered key date and company code and executed the report.
    We want to take a print out of the output. But the variables which we entered in the variable screens are
    dispalying wrong. i.e if we have entered company code as gsml and key date as 01.01.2008.
    In the report output I am getting as:
    Company code: gsml
    Keydate: #..27-11-4745
    But keydate should be displayed as 01.01.2008
    How to solve this ?
    Regards,
    Nishuv.

    Nishuv,
    Please follow below steps:
    1. Open query through Bex - Query Designer
    2. Beneath the Rows Area( where you actually  drag in charactertistics), you'll be finding two tabs Filter and Rows/Columns
    3. Click on Filter Tab
    4.You'll be navigated to a window, there you can trace two Workareas
            a. Characteristic Restrictions: Where drag in the relevant Prompts/Input Variables
            b. Default Vaules
    5.First, Drag the required promts/Input Variables in Characteristics Restrictions.
    6.Click on the varible which was dragged in Characteristic Restriction area and drop it into default values area.
    7.Now you'll have visibility of variable in two regions, Characteristics and Default Values.
    8. Save and Execute the Query

  • BEx variable input value

    Hi,
    I have created a BEx Query, now based on selection screen inputs.
    Selection Screen Inputs:
    MATNR -
    PLANT-
    SLEVEL-(User Input Value) Mandatory
    Now when i select inputs at the time of running query eg;
    MATNR - 'ABC'
    PLANT-'A123'
    SLEVEL-'0.55' (User Input Value)
    Now my report should look like this.
    MATNR | PLANT | SLEVEL
    ABC       A123      0.55
    ABC       A123      0.55
    Here SLEVEL value shld be user input value. How to achive this?

    Hi,
    Using Formula varible and Boolean expression concept you  can get it.
    1) Define a formula varible with user entry.
    2) USe the varaible in the expression ,for ex:
    FV2 = (fORMULAVARIABLE == SLEVEL ) * SLEVEL
    3) PUT CONDITION on FV2 not equal to 0.
    OR
    Simply use Condition Varaible.
