Variable Screen in Web Application Designer (disappers after execute click)

Hi,
I have a Bex query in WAD, one of the variables is set to mandatory in Bex Query. i have also checked the "Force Variable Screen Display" option in web template. Initially when i call this Web template URL the varible screen is displayed and if i do not enter any value for the mandatory variable i get an error message till here everything works fine.
But when i provide the variable values and click on execute the variable screen disappears and never comes back again, how can fix this variable screen, so that it should be always visible even if i navigate between pages. I have WAD 3.5.
Thanks
Akila.R

What does that mean. could you please give me more details on the same or any links that is helpful.
Thanks

Variable entry in Web application designer

Hi,
In the Variable entry screen in the Web app designer on executing a template, when I open the drop down menu for possible values, it leads to two more new variable entry screens wherein the selected values are populated instead of the original entry screen. This repeats for every additional variable entry selection, including the from and to selections. Any idea how this can be fixed? We are on SP7.
Thanks.

Hi,
I solved this by changing the configuration in the WAD by changing the open dialogues in new window to 'do not open window'.

I think there do have method to implement,as when I put the mouse on the node of the chart ,the "javascipt:;" shows in the status bar of the IE ,I don't know where can I write the JS ?
Best Regards
chan.

Hi Chan,
1. You type tcode RSBBS in BW system
2. Under Query Tab, there is 'Sender' field. You input the the origin query.
3. Click 'Create' button, you choose the report type that you want to jump into. In you case, if you want to jump into a web template, choose 'BW Web Application'
4. In 'Report' field, choose the destination query/web template.
For more details, please look at this link

Variable in Web application designer

I created a template in WAD (Web Application Designer) and inserted table which is connected to Query. Given Query consists variable also. However WAD generating report without any variables.
Also, if anybody has stepwise document for WAD.
Regards,

Hi,
1. Check if your variable is input-ready (if it's not - it shouldn't appear on variable screen). If yes - pls.follow
2. Try to set parameter Reset variable values - On (WAD-> your Template --> Web template parameters --> Behavior)
3. General info on WAD can be found here http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/1a/456a3badc1b315e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

Change Layout Web Application Designer

Hello Gururs.
Here's the question:
I'm creating a Web Application Designer Template. When I execute it in the web, the variable screen has certain colors (kind of blue colors) the standard, but after inputing the variables when I click on Ok button, the display of the query is very mediocre, i.e., the standard, is representing the query in a table with the columns and rows in gray!
I would like to change these colors, but I don't know how.
I believe that in older versions you used to have an option in WAD of choosing the stylesheet (CSS), that now in the 7.0 version is unavailable.
How can I change the layout presentation of the queries format in the WAD?
Thank You,
Diogo Ferreira.

Hi Diogo,
The table colors are from the EP settings.
I often insert a line like this in the head of the template:
<style type="text/css" >.urSTSHL2 { background-color:#CCDAF6 } .urSTSHL1 { background-color:#CCDAF6 }</style>
It will overrule the standard CSS from the EP and it also works with IP queries.
The alternative is to change the overall setting or change theme in the EP.
Hope this helps.

Dynamic image display (based on variable attribute) in Web application?

Hi experts,
I am using a Web Template (from the Web application designer) based on a BEx Query.
This web template displays a logo (jpg image) and the report.
Is there a way to add another image to my web app and having the right logo displayed depending on a characteristic (sales organization for example) chosen in the variable screen (before the first rendering)?
Thanks for your help.
Points will be given to useful answers.
Cheers,
Olivier

Thanks for your helpful answers guys.
Andrey's tutorial helped me to catch the sales org variable value in a variable named salesorg (Script Item in the web template as well as Data Provider Info Item).
Now could you explain how/where to use this variable to swith images? Is this still in the same Script_item where i should be able to "hide" / "show" the following XHTML tag?:
<img etc ....... img<
Thanks for your help, I'm a bit confused on this last point (and not so comfortable with Java Script).

How to maintain Master Data through Web Application Designer layout.

Hi.
I’m Internship and I have to do something that it doesn’t work.
I explain to you.
I have to make a layout via Web Application Designer to permit users to add a line in the master data XST_RFC.
For that, I did two things:
First I followed this url : http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/607193d5-cdd5-2b10-c699-8ff04c3124f6?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true&38392712686871
The result; I have a problem with the appendix of method execute “DATA : ZL_WORKTEXT Type ZFREETEXT”. Here, SAP doen’t permit me to put XST_RFC (my characteristic to add by the user) but just /BIC/PXST_RFC… So, I tried with that and at the moment of the test in the Wad, the application say me “no Master Data in XST_RFC”. I know that there are no MD in my char, I just want to add once…
So it doesn’t Work.
Secondly, after testing, the Function Module test works. When a put an ID in the test page of SAP Logon in parameters, the FM put this ID and create a new line with this new ID. So I had an idea, use directly this function module in a Fox Formula but, when a call my function, I have a problem with variable/parameters type.
My variable is TYPE XST_RFC , but my parameters is TYPE /BIC/PXST_RFC….
My Fox Formula
DATA NEW_RFC TYPE XST_RFC.
NEW_RFC = VARV(XVOU_RFC).
CALL FUNCTION ZBWDSST_XX_MASTERDATAMAINTAIN
EXPORTING
VAR_RFC = NEW_RFC.
My error message Types of parameter VAR_RFC () and variable NEW_RFC(C) are inconsistent
If you can help me, I work on this issue for 4 days and I waste my time.
Thanks.

Dear All,
The text flow for 0WS_QUEST & 0WS_QSTNNR is sufficient to make available Criteria from source system questionnaire in BW.
After the text load (even it does not generate SID) we can already use Tcode SRM_VE_GROUPING & SRM_VE_WEIGHTING for customization of groupping and weighting in BW.

Query on WAD (Web Application Designer)

We have got request from the user on one WAD u2013 Web Application Designer Report for the extra functionality.
This WAD report contains 7 tabs, for each tab there is a separate query view has bee designed with default variable values.
While running the WAD report user will input values in the variable window for the variables (Eg: Fiscal Year, Org.Structureu2026etc), after executing the report, if the user switch to another tab in the same report, the variable values entered before execution of the report will not pass to the another tab by default because the query views have been designed in such a way that each query view will have its own default values.
Now the user is expecting the variable values entered for the first tab should be passed to other tabs as well, is it possible to pass values from one tab to another tab?
If its possible, could you guide us where (HTML code or web template parameters or any another things) exactly the required changes/modifications need to be made in WAD report?
Thanks in advance.

hi vishal ,
You are right .At first i did not get you solution

Bex Web Application designer 3.x windows 7

Good Morning,
Im trying to use Bex Web Application Designer SAP BW 3.x doenst working at windows 7.
its ask one version above ie 5.
Im using ie 8, i cant install the ie 7.
there is anyway i solve this problem?
i patched of last support package, even it not working
thank u
regards,
Amit

Dear Amit,
unfortunately I get the same error here when I try to run the WAD 3.5 under Windows 7. I only can hope that there will be a work around, as SAP will officially support Win7 only with SAPGui 7.20 which will be released in Q1 next year. I did not get any information that BW 3.5 will still be included in Gui 7.20, but probably someone who is reading the forum from SAP can provide an answer...
Another strange thing which I discovered in Win7 is, that when I execute a query and the variable screen is displayed, most of my variable descriptions are missing. When I toggle back and forth some windows everything appears correctly. So I guess that (hopefully) the display device driver needs only another update...
Regards,
Andreas

Prevent values being passed using Link Item on Web Application Designer

Hello all,
I have a question regarding 7.0 Web Application Designer. I am using the web item Link Item and using the command OPEN_TEMPLATE_DIALOG to open a new WAD Template BUT I do not want to pass the values from the original WAD template to the new one. Is there a way to restrict passing any values to the new template? Am I using the correct command OPEN_TEMPLATE_DIALOG?
To better describe what is happening, my characteristics and key figures are being passed from my original WAD template to my new WAD template when using the OPEN_TEMPLATE_DIALOG. I do not the values to be passed, only to open up the new WAD Template with its own reports.
Thank you.

Sorry maybe I mistated the problem. I do not have an issue with the variable screen when transitioning to the second WAD template screen, I have a problem due to the values from the first WAD template being passed to the second WAD template.
My first WAD template using the Link Item is only for the ability to click on the text to open up a second WAD template which I do not want the values to be passed from the First template.
I hope this clears up the confusion.
Thanks

Variable Screen of Web Template iView

Deployed Web Template iView to Portal. But when ever i click on the link of the web template iview in the navigation panel in portal. Variable screen comes up first which is mandatory. Is there some way in the web application designer that i fill up the mandatory variable screen with values through some ABAP table interface or by using text elements web item without letting variable selection screen show up initially in the portal.
I cant make those variable values default by going in BEx because those varaibles are global variables and getting used in many queries.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

We've just implemented a NetWeaver 2004s system, and these hints may help you out:
1. In the Web Application Designer, there is a property on the web template which determines whether the variable screen is displayed or not. Therefore, you could uncheck that checkbox, and the variable selection screen won't be shown.
2. As to defaulting values in the selection screen ... we have used ABAP code to default values in variables. I think it was done in the start routine. The code we have implemented works, but then we present the variable selection screen to the user, so I can see that certain values (like date for example) are defaulted. I am not sure what happens if you default these values and then don't present the selection screen ... assume it would work for you though. Check on SDN and find out about pre-popup ABAP code for queries, I am sure you will be able to find something that helps you out.
Cheers,
Andrew
