Visualize Filter prompts in Web Intelligence documents

Hi ! I need to know how to visualize the content of a Filter prompt within the document. (i.e. a date entered by the user as a parameter required). Does exist some manner to do it ? Thanks

yes UserResponse() is what you are looking for
say that you have a paramter called "Enter Date:"
user this function in a variable =UserResponse("Enter Date:")
it will show whatever the user put into the parameter

Can't create new Web Intelligence document

My company is migrating server from BO 5.1.8 to BOXI R2. Migration was fine with the exception of a few issues.
FIrst, no one has the ability to create a new Web Intelligence document in InfoView, not even administrator although permissions are there for Web Intelligence under the BusinessObjects Enterprise Applications on the main screen of the CMC.
Second, when a user attempts to change the parameters for a report, by clicking on the "prompts" link, they are presented with a server error mentioning that the document cannot be opened since it was saved with "Write Reservation Password". Would this password need to be removed in BO 5.1.8 and then the migration redone or can this password be removed post migration?
I appreciate any help or advice. I have three other things I am working on and need to get these things resolved.
thanks

Web Intelligence Document Reports

Hi Everyone,
My Question is, How many Reports can we create in Web Intelligence Document? and How to open Web Intelligence through command prompt?
Thanks & Regards
Madhu...

Hi,
Thanks for your quick replay, but we can also open the Web intelligence Rich Client with Command Line, Infoview and Start > All Programs. So I need to open from Command Line. Please give the command or path to open the Web Intelligence Rich Client.
Regards
Madhu...

Need help for publishing web intelligence document (universe) into InfoView

Post Author: mirage
CA Forum: Publishing
Hello all,
I need help for publishing web intelligence document (universe) into InfoView.
can't find this information in Business Objects Designer's Guide and in Business Objects Administrator Guide.
Can somebody give short instructions how can I do it?
Regards, Slava

If the change between the 2 types of data has to happen dynamically during run time them
1. Use 2 dataproviders
a. Current
b. Historic
2. Merge the 2 dimensions
3. Use Webi variable to switch between the measure of the current and historic universe
Ex if [year] < 2010 then historic.[expense] else current.[expense]
Hope this helps,
Divya

Change the Formula in Web Intelligence Document using BO SDK XI

Dear All,
             I am using Business Object Enterprise XI SDK. I have written vb.net SDK program to show the selected web intelligence document. I have used the formula field in the web Intel. document. I want to change formula of the web intel. document in the vb.net code by using Infostore object. Is it possible ?
Regards,
Mani

I do not think if you will be able to achieve it through the infostore and the RENET (ReportEngines .NET).
But with the Java ReportEngines, this is possible by creating a ReportExpression via the ReportDictionary's method createFormula.
Here is a snippet code:
private ReportExpression processReportExpression(ReportDictionary reportDictionary, ReportExpression expr, String definition)
        newExpr = reportDictionary.createFormula(definition);
    return newExpr;
Cheers

Make a backup of Web Intelligence Documents

Hi ! I have produced some Web Intelligence documents in BO XI R2, but I need to know how to make a backup of them... Is it possible to find them as visible files or packages, in order to keep them and prevent possible loss ? Thanks..

The reason that you have to use the BIAR files from the Import Wizard in XI r2 is that there is no way to "publish" the .wid files that contain WebI reports. So, the only way to restore them is through the Import Wizard.
In XI 3.0 and above, there is a tool called the Web Intelligence Rich Client which will open .wid files outside of InfoView or the CMC and let you save them to you BO system.

Viewing Web Intelligence Documents Using Interactive Format

When I go to the Advanced Rights screen in Central Management Console, this right is set to Granted:
Enable interactive HTML viewing (if license permits)
When I log in to InfoView to set my Web Intelligence Documents Preferences, I do not see "Interactive" as an option under "Select a view format".
Do I need a special license to enable interactive HTML viewing? We have the Premium version of BusinessObjects.

Please post this query to the Business Objects Enterprise Administration forum:
BI Platform
That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there. Also, all BOE queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
Thank you for your understanding,
Ludek

Web Intelligence Document Freezing

Hello everyone,
I hope someone could help me solve this issue.
I open a new Web Intelligence document, select the required universe on which to build my document,
it starts loading for a couple of minutes and then freezes.
this issue appeared just yesterday, before that i was able to work just fine & I'm wondering what could cause
this freezing issue.
Even if i try to open an existing report, it also freezes on loading.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Is it happening to every one?
Have you checked your Java?
I will also suggest checking your Service Pack and Fix Pack to see if they are updated.
I had similar issue when every thing was updated but web service was not responding. I restarted web services and I rebooted the server and got issue resolved.

Hiding reports (tabs) in a Web Intelligence document

Can't create new Web Intelligence documents

Hello,
Only user Administrator can create new Web Intelligence documents on Infoview at my Installation. I 've created a new group called GROUP1. This group has Full Control acces level on folders, universes and conections like group Administrators. A user from group GROUP1 can't create new document Web Intellingence. Also, when I have joined this user to Administrators group, then this user was allowed to create a new Web Intellingence document.
Could anybody help me?
Thank you in advance,
Jaume

please check the rights for GROUP at application level.
I thinck you are not are not grated the rights for the Group 1 for teh Webintelligence applicaton,

Creating a new Web Intelligence document using OpenDocument (requires an existing document?)

We use the OpenDocument interface to embed the Web Intelligence viewer in our web application. One of the problems we're having is that the code appears to require a valid document ID, even if all you want to do is create a new document (passing the noDocument=true flag, so that the application opens with no document at all).
I've tried various permutations of the following, with no success, always getting this error message (An error occurred: Could not find the document)
E.g:
http://bo-server:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?noDocument=true...
http://bo-server:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?noDocument=true&iDocID=...
http://bo-server:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?noDocument=true&iDocID=-1...
http://bo-server:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?noDocument=true&iDocID=0...
http://bo-server:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?noDocument=true&sDocName=...
http://bo-server:8080/BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?noDocument=true&sDocName=new...
It appears the only way to get OpenDocument to allow you to do this is to use an existing WebI document ID. That is to say you can't create a new document unless you already have an existing document to include in the call to the JSP.
This limitation appears to be artificial and only on the OpenDocument interface -- You can create new documents in Launchpad without having an already existing document to point to. Documenting the workaround for this, having people installing the product first make a webi and save it, then configuring it so it has read-only permissions (so it doesn't accidentally get deleted), then configuring our application to lookup the ID isn't the most elegant of experiences.
I was wondering if anyone had run into this before and/or if anyone at SAP could look into it? I'm hoping it's an easy limitation/bug to fix.
This limitation affects 4.1 SP4 and probably older versions of the OpenDocument interface. See also:

Thanks!

Infoview new web intelligence document problem

I select a universe. Then the Data tab shows the universe. The universe is displayed just like I see it in Designer. I drag a class to the 'Result Objects' pane. I click 'Run Query'. I get a 'Web Intelligence' popup with the message 'Some objects are no longer available in the universe...' If I drag the individual objects, I get the same error. The universe contains 2 classes. The other class does not give any errors. Has anyone seen this bahavior?
Bill

Integrity Check showed errors. I fixed all but 2 of them. That was sufficient to fix the original problem.
I do have a question about the Integrity Check Results. The universe consists of 2 tables (views, actually). They are not connected by any joins. The Integrity Check Results says both are 'not linked th anything'. Is that related to the absence of joins? Or is it something else?

How to Create a Prompt in Web Intelligence

Hi Experts!!!
I am trying to create a prompt to get the value of one variable that i need in my webi report.
This variable needs to receive its value when users are refreshing the report (like a prompt).
Its important to say that this is a external variable, in other words i cant make reference to any dimmension or measure of my universe.
I am trying to do this in my universe using the following sintaxis:
- The name of my variable (the variable that has to be populated is Estacionalidad).
- In the select of the editor properties of my variable i put this: @Select(Ratios\Estacionalidad)
- In the where of the editor properties of my variable i put this: @Select(Ratios\Estacionalidad)=
@Prompt('Estacionalidad GT','A',,,)
But when i am analysing if my sintaxis is right, the universe designer show me the following message: "The analysis failed. incorrect deficinicon (unv 0023)".
Do you have any idea how can i reach this item?
My universe is based in a BEX query. I have BO XI 3.1 SP3.
Ruddy Alvarado

ralvarado ,
In the universe create a condition object(By selecting the funnel radio button on the bottom left corner). and put your syntax like this
@Prompt('Estacionalidad GT','A',,,)
and now parse the object. this should work. if it is not referencing any table, it will throw an error but will surely work at the report level.
Thanks,
Karthik
