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?

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 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

    I resolved my problem!
    In the Content Administration of the portal:
    -Portal Content
    --Content Provided by SAP
    ---Platform Add-Ons
    Business Intelligence
    iViews
    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!

  • 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 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

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • Web Application Designer need help ASAP

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to customize the analysis item in a web application designer.
    I have created new templetes and added a analysis with a query view as data provider .
    in the output I require to hide some rows of the query view and also change the color of the text i.e the numbers.
    How to modify the output of the analysis item which is coming from a query view or is there any way where I can modify the output of the web templete.
    Thanking You,
    Rukmini

    Dear Devi,
    If you do not want to use the default display and behavior of the Analysis Web item, you can use the Modification parameter to change them. You can modify the table structure and the table cells.
    The Modification parameter provides modules whose use can be controlled using additional parameters.
    This function enables you to use similar options to those available in earlier releases with the Web Design API for Tables. Unlike the Web Design API for Tables, modifications enable you to make targeted changes to the display and behavior without any programming.
    Prerequisites
    The modules are the main prerequisites for making modifications to the Analysis Web item. The modules are implemented in Java. The SAP Basis infrastructure in SAP NetWeaver 7.0 does not support any customer modifications or extensions to Java coding. Customers are therefore not able to develop their own modules for modifications to the Analysis Web item.
    SAP delivers a number of sample modules. You can use parameters to modify the display and behavior of these modules.
    Procedure
    You use the modules as follows:
           1.      Select a module from the sample modules.
           2.      Specify the module in the Modification parameter of the Analysis Web item.
           3.      Control the display and behavior of the module by specifying the module-specific parameters.
    Result
    The table of the Analysis Web item is displayed in an individual manner using the modules. The behavior of the table may also be different. For example, you can define commands for table cells.
    Example
    For example, you can define a fixed column width or display comments in cells.

  • To use Web Application Designer release 2004s do we need to have portals???

    Hi
    I would like some clarity regarding whther we need a portal or not.
    If you use Web Application Designer (SAP BW 3.x) it works fine, you can create reports and then it shows in SAP Easy Access under favourites. Executes fine, no portal is used.
    Now when I want to use the new Web Application Designer I can not execute the reports. Gives me error
    "Java communication error: RFC destination NOT_CONFIGURED does not exist", the window it appears in has a text saying it can't conect to the portal. Then notes that I look at regarding this seems that the connection between SAP BW and Portal must be set up.
    So can please someone tell me whether you need the portal to use the new Web Application Designer release 2004s
    Thanks in advance

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • How to suppress Result rows in a Query in Web Application Designer

    Hi
                 I am trying to post a query in Web Application Designer. I am able to run the query in WAD but the Results rows appear. I choose Suppress Result Rows always in All Characteristics option in the query in BEx Explorer but still i see result rows in the WAD. Can anyone please let me know how to suppress Result rows so that they dont appear in Web Application Designer.
    Thanks,
    Padma

    To get the enhanced menu-
    1. Open the template in WAD.
    2. Go to Web Item properties.
    3. Go to Entries in Context Menu.
    4. Find the "Enhanced Menu" property. Set it to "display" if you want it to be visible in template result.
    5. Next time when you execute your template you will be able to access it by right clicking.
    or
    If you just want to supress results without adding enhanced menu in the context menu, simply set "Calculate result as" to "No Display".

  • Insert a  BSP Application in  Web Application designer template (WAD)

    Hello to all
    I like to place a BSP Application in my Web Application designer template (WAD). Have someone a good idea how to display a BSP in a web item.
    We use BW 7.0 .
    Thanks a lot for any good idea.
    Christian
    Edited by: Christian Baumann on Nov 10, 2010 3:46 PM

    Christian,
    There are many ways you can do this ...
    1. In Portal - you can have two iviews for the same and run both of them together ( there was something called client side eventing or something like that before - I am not sure if it still exists
    2. In WAD - use frames - use one frame for the WAD template and the other for the BSP ( I have never tried it in WAD 7.0 but it works in 3.x where you can introduce frames
    3. Possibly have the BSP as a link in the template so that it opens up separately ..?
    4. Instead of embedding the BSP into your WAD - embed your WAD into the BSP ..? this is also possible since the output of the template is HTML - but then you will have a hard time getting the context menu , export to excel etc which are all taken for granted in WAD.
