WEBI Prompt [Report Filter] Vs Query Filter

Universe : OLAP Universe on BW Query BI 7.0 SP 15
Bobj xi-3.0
We have a BW variable for Plant on a webi report and if I use it the webi report runs in 10 seconds like BW query
We have a webi prompt for plant [used to drill down from another report] and when passed with the same plant key as above, the webi report runs in 160 seconds.
We are not able to use the BW variables a.k.a. yellow query filters for interactive webi reports and we are forced to use webi prompt filters. However, the performance hit is a huge concern.
Any ideas on improving performance for webi prompt filters?
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
If you have many dimensions and some of the are attributes in SAP BW try to convert those attributes in Dimension detail and then build a master data qry for those detals, delete from the data query the dimensions thata are details now and megre both queries.
I hope this help you.
Best regards.

Business Objects query filter issue

Hi all,
In BO reporting, it is not displaying all the rows in the report when a query filter is applied.
The same report works when filter is applied on the report level.User needs to apply filter on query level in order to create several tabs or reports on the same query.
Please help me to overcome from this issue.
Thanks
Ajay

Hi Ajay
Check the "Limit size of result set" property of your universe,
1. Launch Universe Designer & open/import your universe.
2. Go to File --> Parameters
3. Select "controls" tab, Under "Query Limits", select/deselect the options based on your requirements
4. Export it to repository.
Note: Here you can "Limit size of result set", By default it is set to 5000 rows.
Hope this may be the cause

Apex 4.1 Form and Report on Web Service Report displays nothing

Hello I created and tested a webservice using the test feature in Apex 4.1.
I know the results is a string of 1 row.
I created a Form and Report on Web Service. When I run the form there is nothing displayed in the Reports section its just blank.
If I run the sql from the results region I get no data found.
Is the problem the returned data is not stored in the collection?
Edited by: Oracle Primavera on Oct 26, 2011 3:32 PM

What would be the reason for the following.
Testing the webservice in apex returns values.
However when I run Form and Report on Web Service Report if I query the collection it is always empty?
Does anyone have any experience on this issue? Is it a bug? Please some hints I have been trying for two weeks without success.

How can I use a variable in webi query filter

I created a webi report using the fiscal year/month(period) field as a filter to show a window of 18 periods. The report works just as requested using a between filter on fiscal period with prompts for both the start and ending periods. Now I'd like to calculate the start period based on what was entered in the prompt for the ending period (e.g. enter 201106 for the TO prompt on the between statement and have the FROM statement filled in as 201001.) I can create variables in the report to display both the user response to the ending period prompt and the calculated starting period, but I cannot figure out how to incorporate that calculated starting date into the FROM side of the between query filter.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Doug
Sorry I got my froms and to's mixed up in the first draft. Edited by: Doug Roswold on Mar 4, 2011 6:27 PM

Let me understand what you want to do. You don't want to use two prompts, just one, insn't it?
I mean, instead of:
Filter area:
Date between "From prompt" to "To Prompt"
You want something like:.
Filter area:
Date between Variable to "To Prompt"
if I'm not wrong that's not possible to achieve in Webi Query Panel.
Can you modify your universe? The only way to achieve it is modifying your universe, creating your formula in the universe and assigning it to an object, so you can use this new object in your filter area like this:
Date between MyUniverseObject to "To Prompt"

Dimension in WebI query filter needs to show Key and Description

Hi,
We have two requirements that we can't get them done:
1. We are building webi report based on Bex universes and we need to show the key and description of an object in the query filter of the report. Does this have to be set in the Bex variable or in the universe?
2. filter the LOV related to a specific dimension that is used in the query filter as prompt. The idea is to show a filtered list in the promp LOV of the dimension used in the query filter of the report. Does this have to be set in the Bex query or in the universe? If it is in the Bex Query, where exactly?
Our system is the following:
- BOE XI 3.1 SP2
- SAP NW 4.0
I await your answers. Thanks in advance.

Hi
1. We are building webi report based on Bex universes and we need to show the key and description of an object in the query filter of the report. Does this have to be set in the Bex variable or in the universe?
>> you can easily achieve that by creating a variable in the BEX query - that will return as a LoV with key and description assuming you have key and description in BW for the InfoObject.
2. filter the LOV related to a specific dimension that is used in the query filter as prompt. The idea is to show a filtered list in the promp LOV of the dimension used in the query filter of the report. Does this have to be set in the Bex query or in the universe? If it is in the Bex Query, where exactly?
>> so like filter Country = US in the filter and then prompt only for customers in the US ? if so that is not possible right now.

Error when using "inlist operator" in the query filter of Webi 3.1

Hi,
We are currently in the process of migrating Deski to webi (BOXI 3.1).
The problem is, Deski is using the "inlist" operator which is working fine but after migrating to webi the inlist operator in the query filter is throwing the below error,
*Error Message :*
A database error occured. The database error text is: ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis. (WIS 10901)
Appreciate your assistance on this.
Thanks !

Perialt

Karthik ,
Yes I am seeing an additional paranthesis in Webi SQL query.
For example plz consider the product table below,
SELECT
Product.ID,
Product.Name
FROM Product
WHERE
Product.Name IN ( @Prompt('4) Name:','C','Product\Name-M',multi,free) )
As a work around in Custom SQL, If I remove the paranthesis the below query is running fine in webi
SELECT
Product.ID,
Product.Name
FROM Product
WHERE
Product.Name IN @Prompt('4) Name:','C','Product\Name-M',multi,free)
But I want a permanent solution.

Query filter vs report filter

Hi,
when running queries in webi, on a universe that is based on a BW BEx query, we often see a problem when trying to at dimensions in to the query filter pane. This often lead to columns switching place and/or report just showing the technical ID, not text. If we do the same filtering in the report filter pane after the query has run, there is no issue.
When running a query on a universe based on a BEx query, my understanding is that a filter on a dimension (blue object), will be applied after the BEx query has delivered it's result to BO, and then BO/Webi should only keep the records fitting the filter. Why would this obscure the report result? Anybody else had issues with this?
The users are used to adding filters to the query, and not adding filters in the report afterwards, and they are expecting this to work...
Regards,
Øystein

Hi,
To apply filters at two levels:
The query definition u2013 this is the data defined on the Query tab, retrieved from the data source, and returned to the report.
The data displayed in the report u2013 this is a subset of the query definition data that you want to display in a specific version of the report
Filters you apply to the query definition are called query filters. You use query filters to reduce the amount of data retrieved from the data source. Query filters decrease the time it takes to run the report and ensure that only the data relevant to the report users is saved.
Filters you apply to the data displayed in the report are called report filters. Once the report is generated, you or other users can apply report filters to restrict the values displayed in the report table or chart. The values hidden by the report filters are still saved with in the microcube. You can modify the report filters to display different values in the report or remove the report filters to display all the values retrieved from the data source.
Tip
Filtering the query minimizes the size of reports, reduces the time it takes to refresh report data, and ensures that the data the documents contain is relevant to users consulting the reports. Individual users can then filter the displayed report values by applying the report filters relevant to their specific business focus.
All the Best,
Madhu...

WEBI Substraction of two classes in query filter

Please tell me how could i implement the following query in the WEBI rich client query filter.
and ( one."/BIC/ZORIG_DAT" - one.me_itmvalf ) < 364
AND ( abs(one."/BIC/ZINV_VAL") - abs(one."/BIC/ZSD_AFYV") > 1 )

First, you should know that there is a set of updateXXX() methods in Java 2.0. So, when you have the correct row of the resultSet in hand you can use:
updateString(3,"Hello world!")method to update the field in the column 3 to a String with value "Hello world!". This is just an example of course.
To make this example complete see this:
// assume you have the right row from the resultSet in hand.
// assume rs is your resultSet
int foo = rs.getInt(1);
foo += foo*0.05;
// and other calculations here
rs.updateInt(1,foo);
rs.updateRow(); // This line is here so as to make the changes
                // permanent.
                // No need to mention that you cannot change primary
                // keys...Second, I think I've given you a very clear example of what you can do. And since this is a Java assignment you don't want to be spoon-feeded, do you? :)
Hope this helped.

Then insert first year filter and then inter second year filter (with first year filter).it will come as and clause between two year filter.double click on the "and" between years filter and it will convert in th or filter.

Reporting requirements to Filter on query results

Hi Everyone,
Part of our reporting requirements for Billing Data is to display all Invoices Created till the 15th of the Month. Users want to trend analyze Invoice created till 15th of each month for last 6 months. The report has a time filter to get Invoices for last 6 months.
How do we further filter all Invoices created till 15th of each month?
Thanks for all your answers in Advance.
CM

HI,
I think the best way would be - create an infoobject containing the day (from your date). Then you use calmonth and the new infoobject as time characteristics and restrict both (calmonth on the calmonth, calmonth - 1,...) and "day" as fix filter value for 1 to 15.
This will work.
If you can't extend you cube, you should try it with an virtuel cube where you use your original cube as source. the virtual cube contains the new infoobject "day".
Cheers
J

Rich Client Query Filter Pane question

I've browsed through various forums without finding an answer to my problem. I'm frustrated and hope someone else has been there/done that and can offer a suggestion to ease my pain.
We're using BOXI 3.0, and my question is specifically about deciphering/maintaining the contents of the query filter pane in InfoView and/or Web Intelligence Rich Client.
We have some complicated reports with numerous optional prompts. We realize this is not optimal, but need to maintain this reports until we can replace them.
The filter panes are very complicated, since there are so many prompts, ANDs, and ORs and nested statements.
Is there a way to see which universe component a query filter field is connected to? In the query results pane (on top), I can click on a field and it's source is highlighted in the universe tree view on the left. That doesn't happen when you click a field in the query filter pane.
Is there some way I've not found yet, or is this an enhancement request for BOE? Thanks in advance.

I guess this an enhancement request for BOE because I've never seen an option like that. And I really wish that option existed.
The only way I could think of to solve this problem is renaming all the objects of your universe. This way you may know what class any object is related to when using the query filter panel.
For example: You have 3 classes in the universe: Users, Quotes, Invoices. Rename them with a prefix, let's say:
U-Users
Q-Quotes
I-Invoices
Then all the objects belonging to Users must be renamed with the U- prefix:
U-User name
U-User id
And the same applies for the other classes objects:
Q-Quotes:
    Q-quote id
    Q-User id
     Q-Amount
I-Invoices:
   I-Invoice id
   I-Quote id
   I-Amount
So if in one query filter panel you have a filter using the object Quote id, you'll see if this Quote id comes from Quotes or Invoices, because of the prefix Q- or I-.
I don't know if it is a good practice but I hope it helps.

Dynamic default date filter in Query Panel

I have a report in which I want to always filter data up until the previous Saturday based on a certain date field. e.g. if date today is 2nd July then the report can have data up to 28th June only and nothing after that.
Is there a way I can set something up like this in the Query panel itself? If not, is there an alternate method?

Vivek,
Create an object at universe level with the following syntax
[Last_Saturday] = next_day(sysdate,'SUNDAY')-1
Now create a prompt in query filter on Date like [Date] --- lessthan or equal to --- [Last_Saturday]
or
In Web I, create a variable
Last_Saturday = RelativeDate(LastDayOfWeek(CurrentDate());-1).
Use this Variable in block instead of original Date object.

Unable to see the Default & Mandatory prompts/variable in Web i report

Hi,
We are building web i reports on top of Bex queries, we have some mandatory and optional variables declared in our bex query in filters under default restriction
These default mandatory variables/ prompts are not seen in web i report
Please help us in this concern.
Thanks in Advance,
Swaraj.

Hi swaraj,
Did you create an OSS message for this too? It is good to have these things under close observation.
And which version are you on XI3.1 or BI4.0?
For 3.1, only variables in the filter section (left pane) and are input ready will get generated as prompts in the universe.
You can check this very directly by looking at the generated filters (hidden, mandatory on universe).
For 4.0, When you create a WebI report on the BEx query, the prompts do pop up?
So all ready for input, whether mandatory or optional are visible?
Then you run the query, create your webI report and try to use it and the prompts for the BEx variables are not shown.
If this is the case then you have the problem that the default values are 'saved' on the first execution and cannot be changed later on (because they cannot be purged, WebI just treats the prompt as 'answered' and it will not ask for it again.
Planned to be delivered with patch 2.5 (not available yet) the behavior will be slightly changed, when you purge the data from a WebI document, it will also clear the defaults, thus triggering the prompting again...
Hope this helps,
Marianne
