Web Template with Query Views not showing Variable Screen
Hi, I have a Web Template using 3 Query Views based on a single query. The Query has 2 mandatory variables (CALMONTH and VERSION). When I execute the Web Template it does not prompt with the Variable Screen, and presents the report with the Variables that were in place when the view was saved/created. I'd like the Variables to appear.
1. Is this the correct behavior?
2. Is there any documentation that might describe this behavior.
3. Should I just copy the query and create 3 queries instead?
Note: I did a search in SDN and found lots of similar threads, but nothing exact. Also, I know about forcing the variable screen, but I thought I shouldn't have to do this.
Thanks!
k forget the view, when you run the main query... do you get a pop up for variable screen,. yes or no?
if you dont then try to run another query and see if you get the variable screen as well. if you dont then its a bug. if you do then something is wrong in your query and its having an issue, but if you do get the screen on your query then it is a setting in your web template not in your query.
you can also try to run the query in RSRT backend ...

Not showing Variable screen in Workbook - Refresh
Hi BW Experts,
I am working on BI 7.0
When I try to refresh Workbook in Analyzer it is refreshing the query giving current data, but it is not showing Variable screen.
What should I do to open variable screen when I click on Refresh button in Workbooks.
Kindly advise.
Ram,You should click the 'refresh variable values' button.
Also switch on the 'process variables on refresh' in the workbook properties. -
Web template with HTML framset not working after transport
Hi,
I've built a frameset which consists of two web-templates (role-menu and content area) those two are combined together using plain HTML which does not acontain any web items (uploaded via WAD). This works fine in development. After transporting to our QA environment all the templates have been transported with concode 0, but the frameset does not get loaded. I always get an "Error loading template ...". The two templates which contain web items work fine when used stand-alone.
When looking in transport connection I see the following message:
"Object ZWF_WEB_FRAMESET (Web Template Name) could not be collected for object ()"
I also see the same behavior on another transport of a template. Nine out of ten ar fine, but one, all are exact copies - only the query used is different, does not work either. The query that is used has been transported and is working.
Has anybody an idea what could cause this?
Is there a way to regenerate templates (like RSRT for queries) ?
Thanks in advance

Query views not showing changes of a query
Hello All,
I have a base query with about 20 query views from it. If I change something in the base query i.e. change number of decimal places on a key figure. I would expect this change to be shown in the query views. This is not happening. Should this be the correct behavior? If i create a query view again based on the the ammended query then the results are shown, but i dont want to create 20+ query views again.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Nick.Yep that's the way it works .... sorry for you ...
Query views save the format and just refresh the data in the cells.
Which is interesting sometimes because you don't want everyone to have the same format on their views.
If you saved variants than you can recreate your 20 views quite quickly,

thanks :({color:#000080}I don't know whether that's the only thing wrong here, but I see 3 calls to getGraphics(). The documentation for javax.microedition.lcdui.game.GameCanvas.getGraphics() says:{color}
A new Graphics object is created and returned each time this method is called; therefore, the needed Graphics object(s) should be obtained before the game starts then re-used while the game is running.
{color:#000080}-- Your call to getGraphics() in updateScreen(Graphics g) will return the reference to the local variable represented by the parameter g, which will be out of scope as soon as the method returns.
-- Your call to getGraphics() in animateSelectedItem() assigns the reference to a newly declared local variable, which too will be out of scope when the method returns. (But this method includes flushGraphics() so just possibly this g is flushed to the display.)

Filter Web Template with URL Cmd: doesn't work with compound infoobject ?
Hello all,
I've to filter the query contained on a web template with URL command, but it doesn't work.
The web template contains only one query, and on the free chars I have 0PLANT.
I call the web template adding to the normal url the following command:
&FILTER_IOBJNM=0PLANT&FILTER_VALUE=33
where 33 is the code of the plant I want to filter.
The command is executed, I think, because the result is "NO APPLICABLE DATA FOUND". The fact is that when I execute this query on the Bex filtering 0PLANT by value 33 the data exists.
May be because 0PLANT on our system is in compound with 0SOURSYSTEM ? In this case, what's the value I can use as filter ?
Thank's in advance,
MaxHi,
please see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/59/edfe395dd76846e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
especially:
If the variant with ending 'EXT' is selected, the fully compounded value has to be entered in the external format, for example, 24.12.2000.
If the ending 'EXT' is not used, the fully compounded value has to be entered in the internal format, for example, 20001224 for 24.12.2000.
and
In the internal display (see table below) you can easily determine the name of the characteristic and the filter value using the URL parameter &snippet_operations=%20 (see also Object Tag for the Properties of Web Templates). Call the Web application with this URL parameter. If you filter using the context menu, the parameters FILTER_IOBJNM and FILTER_VALUE are automatically added to the URL in the Web browser. You can then use the desired values with Command URLs in hyperlinks.

Reporting Agent precalculation of web templates - ctrl query
Hi,
I have defined a RA setting for precalculating a web template with a control query (to filter results via a dropdown list, as in offline cockpit scenarios).
However, the execution of Scheduling Package gives no result, i.e no html pages are generated.
I'm pretty convinced that this behaviour is caused by the fact that the control query makes use of a characteristic structure in the rows.
Does anyone know this behaviour?
Thxs.
LauQHello,
Is the process chain and web template the most active version? Are there any altered versions that have not been activated? This could cause a problem when rendering the precalculation. If that doesn't work I still recommend a mad wheelie across the parking lot on your Harley.

How to use a Web Template with queries from multiple BW Systems?
Hi all,
can anybody help me how to use a Web Template with queries (DATA PROVIDER)in it from multiple BW Systems?
Thanks in advance, best regards
FrankGreat! Thanks for the quick response.
Have you tried this for XMLA datasources created within the EP system also?
i.e use Web Analyzer to create a view from the XMLA source and use that view within WAD?
Thanks. -
Hi, We have quite a few reports we have developed for users that have around 5 or 6 tabs. When we adding or remove any functionality we have to maintain each of these reports. Does anyone else have/had this issue and what is a good strategy to move away from Web Templates with tabs?
Thanks!to my knowldge, we don't have any option... we need to maintain every time.
I can think how complex it is...if you have 5 or 6 tabs... it 's very complex. Going forward... for small change.. like adding new tab etc... you need to be very careful.
On every call... try to reset to initial every time you call a tab... then try to pass values as per the requirement. ex: Title, Filters, settings, table etc.
Initial view we will disble every thing... we will one by one... with multiple commands...

DNG files created with LR4 do not show thumbnails
Hi,
When using LR3 to create DNG files from my RAW files, those files would show me thumbnails of my image in Windows Explorer. I am running Windows/7 (64) and have installed a CODEC from "Fast Picture Viewer" that allows thumbnails from RAW & DNG files to be shown. It seems, however, that the thumbnails do not show for DNG's created with LR4.
To Remedy this I uninstalled the CODEC. Downloaded the most recent version and installed it but this did not fix the problem.
I then went to the user forum for the CODEC product and searched for my problem. I found a thread who's solution is to turn off "Embed Fast Load Data" when exporting to DNG and it fixes the problem. I tried this and indeed it did fix it. The responder went on to say ".....When this option is enabled the files created are no longer DNGs (just an undocumented private format of Adobe that no one else can read to this date)". This statement surprised me as it is counter to what I understand Adobe created DNG to be. Can I get some input on this comment as if true it is very troubling.
My second question is that I see where to turn off the "Embed Fast Load Data" in the LR Export module, but where do I do the same thing in the Import module when I'm selecting import mode "Copy to DNG"?
And, my thrid question is this. If indeed the DNG files created by LR4 are proper DNG files and this CODEC is just flawed in some way, does anyone have a better way to allow image thumbnails to be shown in Windows Explorer?
Thanks -- DanHi David,
You testing does not coincide with mine. I have consistently kept "Use
lossy compression" turned off. With lossy turned off, it seems that using
Fast Data Load prevents the thumbnails from displaying whereas turning off
"Fast Data Load" allows the thumbnail to be shown.
Below is comment from Adobe confirming that they have yet to release the
spec containing "Fast Data Load".

2013 Custom Web Parts in Page Layouts not showing for users
Custom Web Parts in Page Layouts not showing for users
I have created a master page in the root site collection for a subsite I am developing. I created content types and custom page layouts for the pages within the subsite.
I used the snippet tool in the design manager to create web parts and page field markup which I copied into the custom layout HTML pages in the root site collection. For instance I have an image viewer web part that I place there to serve as a section title.
The problem is that I can see all these customer layout page parts no problem but my users cannot. This leads me to believe its permissions, I am site owner of both the subsite and root site collection.
The users that cannot see the web parts are site members of the site and restricted read users on the root site collection (where the layouts are stored).
What gives I'm finding it hard to understand why a snipet generated web part wouldn't show in all pages created from that layout page.
Any help would be appreciated, Havent found anything on this issue online. weird.It is a permission issue indeed. Fix is simple, make sure you check out the page layout page, then check it back in as published version.

Why do views not show up in HTML DB?
All,
When I create a new view with SQL/Plus why doesn't it show up in HTML DB? Views that were created previously (before install of HTML DB) are visable.
ThanksJust FYI, I had a problem with views not showing up when using the wizards. Reported the problem and was told it was a bug. Workaround was to create my pages from scratch and explicitly reference the tables instead of the views.
Although HTML DB could handle some views, views that were based upon other views or where there were several layers of views seem to give HTML DB a problem. -
