Web Application Designer Problem with Variable Rolluptime_max

Hi,
I needed some help on one of the issues I am facing in the Web template.There is a requirement that a query when executed on the web should have LatestDataUpdate of the data provider on the Header of the Report, which in this case is the Web Template.
The issue is that I used the Rolluptime_max as the variable to get the value in the Web template and it works fine too in Dev system as I can see the changes on the Web.When I transported the changes to QA system then also it worked fine but in Production after the transport it's not picking up the date.
I checked the template and the changes which I did is there in Production but it still doesn't pick up the date.
Can anybody help.I am on BI7.0
Thanks
Umang

I resolved my problem!

BEx Web... right click, Open -> Object
I've deleted the value in the property "BEx Web Application Query String", I put in it nothing.
Now, it works!

Hi!
First of all, check transaction SMICM to see if the Internet Connection Manager is running.
As you probably can see, your URL seems to be missing your domain name. Check your icm/host_name_full parameter (menu Go to->Parameter->Display from SMICM).

Web Application Designer Chart with additional Line

Hi Guys,
today a customer asked me to insert a line into a WAD Chart.
This customer wants to show with this line the plan income.
So it's an easy horizontal line, but i dont know how to insert this into the chart...
I tried to do it with a trendline, but i didnt succeed to format this trendline as a horizontal...
Pls help, thanks!

Hi
In web template there is no option to enter the value and display it in the chart.
Always it reads the data from the report and displays in the required format like chart or table etc..
If you want to display the entered value based on the sales dept then you need a transactional cube where the user can enter the Value via BPS dialouge and that can be displayed in a keyfigure in the report so that you will get the display in the Chart (Line)

Web Application Designer reading/passing variables

Hi together,
I wanna get familiar with the WAD and try to work with it. Now I've got 2 problems and
I don't know how to save them.
First:
I've got a Dataprovider and a navigation area to filter the dataprovider. Can I read the filters with javascript and pass it to a new HTML Page?
Second:
With a click on a Chart I want to open a Webtemplate in a new Window with the same filters used for the chart?
Has anyone a Hind how to solve this problem?
Lars
Edited by: Lars Ohm on Apr 23, 2008 1:59 PM

Hi,
First:
You can write Java script which reads the filters and you can pass the same to HTML page.
Second:
To achieve your second scenario, you can do with the help of RRI concept.
For this you need to go to RSBBS tcode and select the sender and reciever queries and in Assignment Details screen, you need to map the details based on your requirement. In WAD template properties, you need to check the property "JumpTarget as". This will realize your scenario.
Hope this helps u...

Web application designer basics

hi experts,
i am bw learner and want to know few things
1) how do we publish report developed in web application designer so that we can access it on internet. Is there any webserver offered by sap.
2) how that report will be authenticated in browser, do we have to create a login page for users or is there any built in one.
3) Does web application designer comes with Sap GUI (like bex analyzer) or do we have to install separate programme.
Points will be assigned. thanks

I would suggest that you search the forums first ...
1) how do we publish report developed in web application designer so that we can access it on internet. Is there any webserver offered by sap.
SAp BI comes with a ABAP Web server and a JAVA web server. You can publish the web template / report using these servers ... they can be directly accessed using the URL ( the application has a feature to execute the same in the web ) or the same can be published as a page on Enterprise portal and then accessed from there.
2) how that report will be authenticated in browser, do we have to create a login page for users or is there any built in one.
The access for the same will be through the BI login. When you execute the URL , you will be prompted to login by the server and you do not need to create a separate login page for the same. You can also access them through Enterprise portal where the user needs to login to the enterprise portal and then access all systems using a Single Sign On or SSO.
3) Does web application designer comes with Sap GUI (like bex analyzer) or do we have to install separate programme.
The front end for Web Application designing is called Web Application designer and it gets installed along with your GUI installation and you can design the templates using the same.
Note: WAD is getting phased out by Xcelsius as part of the BI BO roadmap but then with extended support you will have WAD supported till about 2016 I guess so nothing to worry right now.

Problem with layout in Web Application Designer

Hi all,
I am working with the BEx Web Application Designer. Well, I execute a web template in the browser, click on right button and choose enhanced menu, query properties and mark the check box Display Rows as Hierarchy and Expand to and from the list of values (combo-box) choose the last field that can be expanded.
Once all the lines have been expanded and the layout of the template is longer than a page, we look for a line that is not in the first page and contract it. The problem is that when we contract the line, the layout shows the first page, instead of the page where the line had been contracted. I have tried to solve this changing the properties that appear when the template is designed, but I haven´t found the solution. Is there any way so that i can solve it?
Thanks in advance,
Mª del Mar Bonilla.

Bonilla,
Welcome to SDN...
Try this out...
In the Query designer view , right click on the rows structure and select display as hierarchy. In case this option works fine , the behavior pointed out by you could be a possible bug.
Just update the result of what I have mentioned above...
Hope it helps..
Arun
P.S Assigning points is a way fo saying thank you in SDN

Problem with BEx Web Application Designer

Hi,
we use since last week the Web Application Designer with the SAP GUI 7.2.
Now I have a big problem since last week. I can call existing templates but unfortunately not change! I make a change in the template and save it. When I viewed the template again but no change is saved!
A new template I can create and change
Does anyone know the problem? The behavior also occurs with the old Gui 7.1.
Regards
Edited by: Jana VOGL on Oct 18, 2010 10:14 AM

Hi Jana,
Do you get any error before opening of an existing template in WAD? Doesn't look to be a problem with the different SAP GUI versions. Maybe somethings gone wrong with the Java - ABAP config settings or Java Portal communication settings. Maybe you should check with your BASIS team on the same. Tell them what the problem is & they will run a trace to figure out.

Print PDF file with the lay out created in the BEx web application designer

Got the following questions (problems) when print a web report created in BEx Web Application Designer to a PDF file:
1. The tile (which has a company logo and report name in it) was not printed, is it possible to print a title (with company logo) on each page of the PDF file?
2. Want print the filters that have value specified on the PDF file, is it possible to do this?
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Hi Simon,
you can achieve this requirement i.e. using this way of implementation:
1. Create a new template which contains the required fields (company logo etc) and set the visibility of the top container to "hidden". Add a empty data provider to this template and add the filter values (variable names) you want to display on the PDF. However be aware that the name for the (empty) data provider must match the name of the data provider within the original template you want to print.
2. Open your original template and include the template you created in step 1 (Advanced: Web Templates). Choose the appropriate location (above/below the analysis item.
3. Check the settings of your export command: do not set a special web item to be printed.
If you export the template within web the second template should be printed correctly.
Brgds,
Marcel

Web Application Designer: Column width on analysis_item with BW 7.0

Hi,
I'm new to SAP world and I have found a problem I'm not able to solve. I'm working with the Web Application Designer and I want to modify the cell properties (such as cell width) for aligning different queries. In fact, my question are:

1. Is it possible to hard-code/specify column widths of the analysis_item?
2. The property width of the analysis_item doesn't work, does it?

Thanks for your time and efforts.

Hi,
I have just discovered the capability of modifying columns widths with css properties.
So if I add to the head section of the html:
div.prueba2 .urSTTDBdr1
div.prueba2 .urSTTDBdr
div.prueba2 .urSTTDBdr2
And later I put the AnalysisItem between a div class="prueba2" and /div, the columns widths are changed.
Do you know where can I find all the style properties (such as urSTTDBdr1) and its functions?
Thanks

Problem - over lie of data series in Line chart (Web Application Designer)

Dear Experts,
I have created a chart with below requiments from my user by using web application designer.
1) Key Figure 1 (Chart type -> column )
2) Key Figure 2 (Chart type -> column )
3) Key Figure 3 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> BLACK;    Visibility: Visible)
4) Key Figure 4 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> YELLOW; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
5) Key Figure 5 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> RED;         Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
The line chart of Key Figure 3 must always appear in Front then others Key Figures.
Then following by, Key Figure 4. Last is Key Figure 5.
As I know the order of display line chart is infflucing by the order of Key Figure in structure by descending, likes below
1) Key Figure 3 (Rank of front -> 3rd; Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> BLACK;    Visibility: Visible)
2) Key Figure 4 (Rank of front -> 2nd; Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> YELLOW; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
3) Key Figure 5 (Rank of front -> 1st; Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> RED;         Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
So, I have conflict on fulfilling these 2 request on assigning the color and control their visibility and lines over lie.
Please advice me if you have any suggestion on controlling the lines order.
Thanks!

Hi Priya, thanks for input.
I think I should further elaborate the problems. Thanks for your highlight.
I have a lines chart with five key figures. So my chart will have five lines.
Some lines from chart will overlap if the data are same.
When overlapping of lines happens, I want to control the order of which series should be appear first.
Likes below example,
1) Key Figure 1 (Chart type -> column )
2) Key Figure 2 (Chart type -> column )
3) Key Figure 3 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> BLACK; Visibility: Visible)
4) Key Figure 4 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> YELLOW; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
5) Key Figure 5 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> RED; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
           KF1 KF2 KF3 KF4 KF5
CW 1    30     30    80    80    50
CW 2    40     50    90    60    90
CW 3    70     50    90    90    90
CW 4    80     70    70    90    70
As you can see, there is overlap in these value.
CW 1 KF3, KF4 -->80
CW 2 KF3, KF5 --> 90
CW 3 KF3, KF4, KF5 --> 90
The order which i want the series should appear first when overlapping.
- KF3 must appear on top.
- Then, follow by KF5
- Last is KF4.
So now, i have no idea to control the overlap orders except adjusting the sequence of keyfigure from query.
Feel free to give me any input!

Localizing Analytics Web Catalog - problem with variables

I tried to localize strings in OBI EE Web Catalog. I exported those captions using catalog manager, translate messages in XML file and put them to \Web\Res\l_xx\Captions. It works quite good.
But there is problem with variables in Title. Replacement of variables STOP working :-( At the page is displayed for example: "@{biServer.variables['MaxDate']}". Variable replacemen works fine in narrative views.
Do you have some ideas?
Thanks.

We have the same problem with presentation variables in titles using externalize strings option, they stopped working after tranlation.
We tried with Oracle BI EE 10.1.3.2.1 and 10.1.3.3.3 with same result.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Chart problems in Web-Application Designer

Hello,
I am trying to use CHART in Web Application Designer.
But whatever TYPE I select in that (pie/stack/..),
It shows the report with default chart type..
Then after one /two trials, I have run time error. & Web application Designer crashes. In preview of that chart on template, it shows the chart type I have selected.
What am I missing in my steps. Or is some library missing..
Thanks for you suggestion.
Is very urgent & as I need to show report tomorrow.
Regards,
Santosh

Hi Santosh,
Defining the Width and Height of the Entire Chart
in the Properties
Enter the desired values in fields Width and Height of the window in which you are editing the chart. The entries should be in pixels.
Choose Apply.
The size of the entire chart is changed according to your specifications.
Changing the Size of the Entire Chart with the Mouse
Point to the border of the preview window with the mouse.
The cursor becomes a double arrow.
Click on the border and pull the preview window to the required size.
The size of the entire chart is changed when you let go of the mouse key.
Changing the Size of the Plot Area or the Legend with the Mouse
Click on the element whose size you want to change (plot area or legend).
The element is enclosed in a move handle.
Point to one of the move handles with the mouse.
The cursor becomes a double arrow.
If the cursor does not become a double arrow, you might not have selected the right element, for example the chart area instead of the plot area. In this case click again on the element whose size you want to change.
Click on the move handle and keep the mouse key pressed.
The cursor becomes a cross.
Pull the element to the desired size.
The size of the element is changed when you let go of the mouse key.
Avoid stretching the plot area over the whole area of the chart. The outermost border of the plot area disappears from the visible area in this case and cannot be clicked on again. You cannot change the size of the plot area. If you made the plot area too large by accident, you can undo it with the menu option Undo in the context menu. You can reset the plot area to its original size with Reset, but you will lose all the changes you made to the chart.

It is simple issue D't worry..And one morething is Check the Specific Properties of the Template in Design of the web template.
Thanks
Bhima Chandra Sekhar

Print a Web Template with Web Application Designer 3.X

I would know how I can print a web template made with Web Application Designer 3.X and that it is in the Intranet.
Actually I'm printing that page with the option of the browser (Internet Explorer) but it print only I see, no print all the chart and the rest of the columns.
How can I print all the data that compose the web template?

Hello Sharath,
First check whether you have change authorizations for WAD, check you user name is added in the role for web templates and also check the authorizations.
then in the web template in the menu bar go to view option ,select web items and properties , so that you can find them in the left hand side, then replace the chart item with the table and assign the query to the table.
hope it is clear,
assign points if useful.
