WEBI report on BEx query.

Hi All,
Im new to BO.
Im trying to create a WEBI report on a BEx query in BO 4.0.
But when i click on new query and select BEx there r no connections available.
Do i need to create connections? if so how can it b done?
or
Do i need to login to BI system from WEBI end.
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Sujith

Hi,
Yes, you need a login (for BI and BW)
the connection to the SAP entitlement system needs to be created in IDT or CMC (OLAP connection > BICS API)

Hi Mohit Gupta,
Degrade the java version to java 7 update 45 and also degrade the java security level to low from medium. Also delete the java temporary files and also clear your IE browser cache as well.
This solved the issue for me.

Issue with webi report on BEx query

Hi,
I have created a universe on top of Bex query. There is no issue in creating and exporting the universe. But when I try to create a webi report out that BEx query, I am not able to see the values. Say if I have a column called "Company" I am getting the value as "All Company" and so on. What will be the issue?
But when a report is generated out of BEx analyser they are able to see the values properly.
Same user credentials are used in both the places (Importing the query into universe, Connecting to BEx Analyser) .
Thanks & Regards,
Subbu S

Hi Subbu,
the universe will generate a L00 item and a L01 item. The L00 item shows the All member of the characteristic in the case of a flat list and the Top level nodes from a hierarchy. the L01 item should give you what you looking for.

Webi report on Bex Query takes very long to refresh.

Hi All,
I have a report in webi on bex query which takes forever to give me data which is only 1000 rows. In our Development environment its completely fine but in our UAT environment its extremely slow. i can not push it to production until i have same performance as development environment. Can someone help to point me in the right direction? Have tried to run that Bex directly against BW and its fine takes a few secs. But in webi takes almost 10 mins. Thank you.

A) Please, state exact version and patch level of involved SAP BusObjects system as well as SAP BW system. There have been many improvements with respect to perfromance.
B) Are you using BICS for Webi (recommended) to connect directly to SAP BEx query or the old and slow OLAP UNV approach?
C) Are you using the same navigation state in Webi as in BEx Analyzer or are there more dimensions in the Webi query panel than shown in BEx Analyzer?

WebI Report on BEx ignoring the filter values

Hallo experts,
I have a Webi report on BEx query.
We have two BEx Variables; one for Manual input and other one is a Customer Exit to calculate YTD on 0CALMONTH(Calender Month/Year).
We've created Webi report on this Bex query.
When we selected a value in webi prompt then it is ignoring the value and delivering all the data for previous years also.
But when we selected the value in Bex variable then it is giving only values which we selected.
For example:
We have data in our cubes for 2013 and 2014.
We selected in webi prompt JUN 2014 ------ in this case webi is delivering all the data for all the months and years (i:e JAN - DEC for 2013 and 2014)
We selected in Bex variable JUN 2014 ----in this case Bex is delivering only values for JAN 2014 until JUN 2014 for only 2014.
So, BEx is working as should be but not Webi.
Any ideas to solve this Webi issues would be appreciated.
Thanks
Indra

Hallo Sathish,
When I am placing input variable in a dummy key figure, I am getting values for one month less.
Example: i am selecting JUN 2014 and it is delivering values until MAY 2014.
Thanks
Indra

Report on BEx query with 2 structures (one in rows and one in columns)

Hi, experts! I have to make Crystall report on BEx query with 2 structures, one in columns (with KF's), and one in rows. Is it possible to create such report? Because when I create such report, I cant see fields in structures, only characteristics fields.
Ok, I found samr problem in another thread. Sorry.

Hey Flora,
Happy to hear that its working now.
Answering your question, again its upto the connection and report format you are using. Based on your question i hope you your report output should be like this.
You cannot map to two labels for the series, again this report format is possible only in cross tab through Webi. I would suggest you to concatenate the material and month in a dimension in webi like below.
I have done the concatenation in excel level, i would suggest you to do that in webi. Try to reduce the formula as much in excel.
or
If you are using Query browser connection, then i would suggest you to create a separate report which will display the actual vs plan material wise, here you need to pass the material as a prompt.
Hope this helps in clear, please revert me for any clarification.

WebI Report using BW Query

Hi,
I am using WebI Report using BW Query. I don't see some Formulas in Universe which is there in BEx Query.
Did anybody face the same problem before?

Hi,
I meant that you should post in the forum the calculation contained in the formula that you cannot see in your universe.
But let's start from the begining since you are new to SAP: Did you generated the universe yourself? If the formula was added in the query after the universe was created then you must refresh your universe (In the Universe designer please select the option "Refresh structure" under the "view" menu) in order to get the newly created formula (I assume we are takling about a calculate figure here) in your universe also.

Crystal Reports with BEx Query using Custom Exit Variable

Hi,
We have BW BEx Query using Customer User Exit variable to derive the Fiscal Week for Last Year (called it VAR2) based on another user input variable Current Fiscal Week (called it VAR1).
VAR2 is derived from VAR1 in CMOD via some codings and thus it DOES NOT have the "Variable is Ready for Input" flag ticked in the BEx. VAR1 is user input variable, so it has "Variable is Ready for Input" flag ticked in the BEx.
When we create a Crystal Reports with the BEx Query using variable VAR2, and when we run it we got an error message saying "Failed to execute query; '[]<java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: No Selection State Support!ZP_MI_LYPUBWEEK>'. Redesign your query or contact the data source maintainer to solve the problem". (note: ZP_MI_LYPUBWEEK is VAR2 in this case).
Could anyone please assist? Surely, CR supports BEx customer user exit variables like the above, right?. I also refer to the forum below as it seems to have a similar issue (except mine with an error message), but it does not provide a solution in it.

Hi Vibhav,
We have the SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise XI4.0 Version 14.0.0. Not sure if SP0 or other SP, got to check with Basis Team later.
We tried that "mandatory" option and did not work either.
Anyway, SAP has now come back again saying it is something they will fix it in next release/version. We got a phone call from them and a reply below to our OSS.

Calling ABAP report from BEx query

Good day!
I want to call ABAP report from BEx query by right-clicking on the field and using context menu. I know that transaction RSBBS is used (sender-receiver connecting), but I don't know how to transfare data to ABAP program
In ABAP program I want to know at least data from those cell in BEx query, that was right-clicked.

Depending on your requirement and environment, you have the following options:
1. Use an info spoke and make selections as you would in a query.
2. USe FM RS_VC_GET_QUERY_VIEW_DATA_FLAT to send the data to a file and your ABAP can read this file.

Webi 4.1 Report on BEx Query

Hi All,
I have created Webi report version 4.1 based on Bex query (BICS connection). This report have several tabs and some calculation in BEx using RKF, CKF, formula variable and virtual characteristics.
Report is signed off by client but now when I promoted Webi report to production from testing, report is running for long hours. After investigation it is found that query is going in infinite loop. When I created sample Webi report on same Bex query in production it is very quick.
If anyone have faced this issue please shed some light.
Thanks

#Multivalue Error on Webi when Using BEx Query

Hi All,
I have created a Webi Report on top of SAP BW BEx Query. I have created a variable in Webi on top of a dimension. When I add that variable in the report block some of the Measures are showing as #Multivalue. I know we can get rid of this by creating a universe and then changing the properties of the measure to sum. However we do not plan to have a universe and would want to make the changes in the BEx query or in the Webi Report whereever applicable.
Kindly suggest the solution at the earliest.
Regards,
James

HI James,
Creat Variable =
=sum(Tonumber([Dimension]))
use this variable in report , it will help you

WebI Prompts using BEx Query Variables

Hello,
I have the following issues with WebI report selection input paramaters (prompts) that use BW BEx Query variables. Could anyone please assist?
Issue 1:
The WebI report has one mandatory and two optional input paramaters (all paramaters from BW BEx Query). When I execute the report via WebI rich client directly, enter the value for mandatory input parameter and leave blanks for both optional input parameters, the report ran OK and has no issue. However, when I ran it through CMC a strange thing happen: I could not select the value for mandatory input paramater as it requires to have values for both optional input paramaters first (which I wish to have them blank and optional). When I refersh values for the mandatory paramater, it says "List of Values for current prompt requires values for following prompts:...(ie. the two optional parameters).
Anyone has any idea - it seems like it is a CMC issue for the WebI...
Issue 2:
Take the same WebI report above, the issue here is the order sequence of the prompts (ie. the selection input parameters). How can we change/control the sequence of the prompts? Whatever sequence of the varaiables (input paramters) in BW BEx Query, the WebI ignores it. Please advise.
Thanks & Regards,
Andy

I did not see separate thread for issue #1, therefore I'll us this thread.
I am running into similar issue when I get an error message ''List of Values for current prompt requires values for following prompts: <Name of the prompt>".
We are using BO V4, SP2, Patch 10 with SAP BW as DB via BEx queries.
I opened support ticket for this issue since obviousely it's still an issue after applying patch 10.
It's not an issue when 'Rich Internet Application' option is selected to view report in 'Reading' mode (via Launchpad Preferences then Web Inteligence; defautl value for viewing is 'Web').
I have not tried to use Client tools but even if it works with Client tools - it is not a solution for us. Our company does not plan to install client tools on end user computers.
Bigger issue us is that report scheduling invokes Web version (not Rich Internet Application). Therefore we cannot schedule report that is giving us problem described. I tried scheduling report from Launchpad and from CMC and both game me error highlighted.
