Web report - return drilldown state & filter values using Javasript

I am customising a BW web report using Javascript.
Can anyone tell me how I can read whether a particular characteristic is drilled down and the filter values applied using Javascript?
thanks,
Hans

Hi,
for the drilldown state use:
SAPBWGetDataProviderDimensions
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/af/00453c3ff4110ee10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
for example:
var dim = SAPBWGetDataProviderDimensions("DATAPROVIDER_1");
if (dim != null){
for(m=0;m<dim.length;m++){
    if (dim[m][4]=='X')
           alert(dim[m][0] + ' is in Columns');
    elseif (dim[m][4]=='Y')
           alert(dim[m][0] + ' is in Rows');
As for the applied filters: You need to use the web item filter with generate_caption= and only_values=X inside a <span>-tag with an id. then use document.getElementById('YourId').innerHTML to get the applied filters.

Return all the column values using the F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST

Hi,
How to return all the column values using the F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST?
For example : if the row has 3 columns then after selecting the particular row, the RETURN_TAB internal table should contain all the three column values.

I tried to create a presentation varible in prompt for filtering but for prompt under control it is given an MULTI SELECT.
i need to filter the values .now though we select any value in prompt ,it is not picking any value.
How to filter the values using MULTI SELECT Here.Please suggest me here .

Hi User,
In, the physical layer go that column and change datatype from double to int and save the rpd.
This should resolve your issue.
Even, it is not required to modify or use cast function to change datatype.
Else,
Change the datatype of column in the Business layer.
This should resolve your issue.
Assign some points if this helps you :)

BEx Web report returns 500 Internal Server Error

Hi all,
a user says that he can't run a BEx Web report (query BEx embedded in a WAD web template) because it returns the generic error "500 Internal Server Error". In the screenshot below some more informations about this issue:
Some other informations:
- says he can run others BEx Web report (which use the same WAD template on different queries)
- says he can run the query via RSRT (so I guess there are no authorization problems)
- says he can run this specific report with another user on his PC
- says he can't run this specific report with his user on another PC
- I copied his user and I can run this specific report.
- browser used: internet explorer 8
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Migrating a webi report from one environment to another using import wizard

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone please tell me what all access should I have on my ID to be able to migrate a webi report from one environment to another environment(e.g. from development to quality).
Regards,
Neeraj Sharma

Hi,
To use the Import Wizard utility, you basically need Administrator, Full Control to Top-level folder, and "Add objects to the folder" and "Edit objects" for this user on the root folder.
You need the least restrictive role, because you require absolute control for content promotion between 2 entitlement systems.
the webi document is the cherry on-top, you;ll have universes, connections, folders to bring over too.
Regards,
H
p.s. check Note 1450708 - How to restrict access to the Import Wizard from a Business Objects Enterprise system
and
Note 1297121 - What rights needed to use Biar File Extraction for a normal user while using Import Wizard ?

Linking a WEBI report through hyperlink in a webpage using open document

Hi All,
I have a hyper link in a web page which when clicked should open a WEBI report. I created it using the open document feature.
Once clicking on the link, InfoView login credential page is displayed. After logging in the report runs.
My client does not want the login page to be displayed since most of the users does not remember their password (since SSO is implemented).
He wants to bypass this login page so that most of the users can directly view the reports.
Question:
Is there a way to achieve this i.e without asking for login credentials or by passing this?
Possibilities :
1: To create ID's for all the people (which I think is not a feasible option in my project)
2: Create a guest account with minimum privileges and share the password with all the users.
Note:
1: I use BO XI R 3.1.
2: No SDK is installed to do any programming.
Any suggestion are most welcome.
Thanks in advance
Shreyas

Hi Shreyas,
Manual Easy Way for doing the activity in SAP Business Objects 4.0:
This method is useful if we have a special system account that we want everyone to use.
You will notice that all we do is generate a logon token using the appropriate username, password and CMS variables. Then we append the token onto ivsLogonToken.
Note: The numbers on the url after /BOE/portal represents the timestamp of the last patch or install. You can put whatever you want under the number section and Business Objects will automatically redirect to the appropriate start.do
Step I:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
Step II:
You can copy the contents from the custom.jsp that I’ve provided below to your custom.jsp.
Cutom.JSP File
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.exception.SDKException" %>
<%@ page import="com.crystaldecisions.sdk.framework.*" %>

final String BO_CMS_NAME = "bi4server";
final String BO_AUTH_TYPE = "secEnterprise";

final String BO_PASSWORD = "admin@123";
ILogonTokenMgr logonTokenMgr;
String defaultToken = "";

boolean loggedIn = true;
try {

//Redirect with token attached to the ivsLogonToken parameter
response.sendRedirect("http://"+BO_CMS_NAME+":8080/BOE/portal/1205291547/InfoView/logon/start.do?ivsLogonToken="+Encoder.encodeURL(defaultToken));

Edit the username,Password & BOBJ Server Name'in BOLD Letter
Step III:
Stop tomcat, then delete contents in the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\work directory.
Then start tomcat again and the work directory will be regenerated with new code.
Step IV:
Trusted Authentication:
Trusted Authentication is a component of Enterprise authentication that integrates with third-party single sign-on solutions, including Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS). Applications
that have established trust with the Central Management Server can use Trusted Authentication to allow users to log on without providing their passwords.
This method is really cool because users don’t even have to know their passwords. Basically with this method you can log into another system and if that system has the appropriate user name, you can pass it to the custom.jsp and then it will log you into BI Launchpad.
In addition, you don’t need to create any java code for the enterprise token setup.
Step V:
In the CMC, go to Authentication, then select Enterprise. Check Trusted Authentication is enabled, then click on New Shared Secret. Finally download the shared secret key and keep it somewhere secure
Step VI:
Copy global.properties from <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\default into <INSTALLDIR>\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\warfiles\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\config\custom. Then using Notepad or another text editing utility, edit the following properties
sso.enabled=true
trusted.auth.user.retrieval=WEB_SESSION
trusted.auth.user.param=UserName
trusted.auth.shared.secret=<secret code from properties file you created in step 2>
Step VII:
Go to the SAP BusinessObjects\Tomcat6\webapps\BOE\WEB-INF\eclipse\plugins\webpath.InfoView directory and edit custom.jsp
<\!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"

When web reports returns no output

What happens when a web reports generates no output?
I have the case where the browser downloads a text file which has my reports server name.
(e.g. repserverxx.txt)
Please advise.

Since no one has responded and I've found a solution myself I shall post my findings:
If I set the DESTYPE to CACHE and the DESFORMAT to DELIMITED, the resulting data is displayed in the browser which can then be saved away to the local machine using FILE/SAVE from the menu bar. This is the best I can come up with. The users get what they want , it just means they can't run the report directly to a file from the parameter form, they have to preview the output then save.

Create a text variable with replacement path on this date.
For steps refer: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/43/565cd22fc95f6ce10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm

WEBI Report returns results even though the Infocube is empty

Hi all!
I have the following problem with WebIn report refresh functionality:
Step 1 -> I run my WebIn report this way: double click on my folder >> double click on my WebIn report >> the prompt values pop-up appears and I choose a given MONTH and click RUN. After that, my report brings some values that are stored in the infocube. No problem SO FAR!
Step 2 -> I go to RSA1 in BW and clean the infocube, leaving it without registers.
Step 3 -> I do STEP 1 again and my WebIn report still brings data that was in the infocube before, but no longer exists! The report should bring 0 register as the infocube is empty.
It sounds to be a cache problem! I went to CMC >> Servers >> WebIn Server and unchecked the CACHE boxes, in order to bypass the data in cache but, it did not work.
Does somebody has an ideia of what is going on??
Thanks a lot.
regards.

Hi Alican!
I actually built the report again, from scracth.
I checked Universe and no errors came out.

How to use linked filters in webi reports.

Hii.. all
I want to know how can i use related or linked filters in webi reports.
that means if i am using three diff filters as f1 for Zone f2 for location and f3 for sales office
then if have selected a zone from the zone filter (for ex west) then the location filter should show only the locations which comes under that zone and the third filter should show only those sales offices which comes under the selected location from the filter..
Plz help..
thanks

hi Neeraj,
1. In Universe Take Storename, city, State, region, Country objects
2. Double click on Storename, go to properties tab and click on edit button. Query panel will open.
3. Double click on city and click on sort button, double click on state and sort it, double click on region and sort it, double click on Country and sort it.
4. If you want to keep any condition like particular country, you can drag country object in to the Conditions pane. If not leave it empty.
5.Click on Save and close button. Save the universe and export it.
6. In webI drag and drop the Storename object and click on 'Add Quick Filter' button. Now all the columns you included in the list of values appear in the Add Quick Filter dialog box.
Now You can select the values from here and run the query. you will get the result.
One more way is there using cascading LOVs
1. Go to Tools menu > List of values > Create Cascading list of values.
2. Double click on Country, Region, State, City and Storename. Close it.
3. Save and export the universe.
4. In webi drag and drop the objects in result objects pane, apply query filter and run the query.
Now you will get the result.

Displaying Prompt values in webi report

Hi,
How to display prompt value in my webi report.
For one prompt value I can user Userresponse function.
In one of my report, I have a prompt for Date, which also should be displayed in the report under one field. I am using the below formula: =UserResponse("Enter Date:")
But my new requirement is User wants a Date Range for a particual trasaction date. I created a report level prompt like
Transaction Date Between "Enter Tran Date(Start):" and "Enter Tran Date(End):"
I need to display the start date and end date user selected under one field Date in my webi report.
how should I do that.
Please share your thoughts.
Thanks,
Ven Men

Hi Ven,
You have created a report level prompt like
Transaction Date Between "Enter Tran Date(Start):" and "Enter Tran Date(End):"
1.Drag two blank cell on report.
2.click on one blank cell and on formula editor type following formula.
=UserResponse("Enter Tran Date(Start):" )
This will show you start date in the cell.
3.Similarly in another cell type the following formula
=UserResponse("Enter Tran Date(End):" )
This will show you End Date in respective cell.
Do revert in case of any queries.
Thanks,
Sandeep B. Singh

WEBI Report values Double as compared to BI/BEX Report.........

Hi,
I am trying a report in BOBJ. When I run the WEBI report it doubles the Column values as compared to BI report. There are no filters, conditions or anything in the report. Tried purging the data and running the report but no change. has anyone come across this situation and if so how did you resolve it? Please let me know.
Thanks...... ShruMaa

Hello Shruti,
as you refer to a Webi problem I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Web Intelligence|SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to the creation and design of Web Intelligence documents using the Web Intelligence Report Panels. This includes areas such as universe connectivity, prompts, charting, formatting, filters, and formulas.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all Webi queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

BEx Web Application Designer - Info Field - Display Static Filter Values

Hi there,
I'm not sure if anyone is having the same issue I am having... but here goes.
I have the option DISPLAY STATIS FILTER VALUES turned on in my 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN & 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN_EXPORT web print templates for printing to PDFs from the Query Designer.
- If I have it turned on, all the filters (including the dynamic) are displayed with about 4 rows of empty space between each line.
- If I have it turned off, the dynamic filters are displayed normally.
Does anyone know how to affect the font and spacing of this setting?
Note: As it is the the standard print template, I can't add the perameters of which filter to display.
Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks, Audrey

Hi Edward,
Help to your answer I could understand my mistake. I was customizing the Data Binding part instead of the Internal Display.
I did the following :
[ ]Display Static Filter Values
[ ]Display Genertal Text Elements
[ ]Display Dynamic Filter Values
[x]Display Variables
[ ] Only Variable with values
And it is working now.
FYI: no need to uninstall and reinstall the Bex tools, it worked directly with the latest patch.

Laurent

Objects used in a Webi Report

Hello Friends,
I need to identify all the Webi reports in BI 4.1 that use a particular object from the universe. I have never used RESTful Web Services SDK before, Does anyone have a sample code that I could use as a starting point to get this info?
Regards,
-CF

Hi Chris,
I guess you wont find someone posting a complete sample for your question.
The task itself is not that complex and can be achieved with the REST webservices.
Basically you need to use the webservice endpoints for the semantic layer and the web intelligence sdks - usually http://<server_name>:6405/biprws/sl/v1 and http://<server_name>:6405/biprws/raylight/v1
With the semantic layer you fetch the universes
     - <slURL>/universes
then the universe details with the outline
     - <slURL>/universes/5808
There you can identify the object and then use the webi sdk to fetch all documents
     - <webiURL>/documents?offset={offset}&limit={limit}
iterate through them and get the list of dataproviders
     - <webiURL>/documents/{documentId}/dataproviders
then the dp details
     - <webiURL>/documents/{documentId}/dataproviders/{dataProviderId}
There you go with all the information you need.
Hope this helps
Jan
