Why Sub Folder for Hyper linked reports in SAP Business Objects

Dear Experts,
We are using SAP Business Objects 3.1, in my organization we already have reports builded for different requirements. Every report has hyperlink with another report. Developer had created separate folder for all these hyperlinked reports.Now, my question is, why he might have created separate folder for these hyperlink reports.
Ex:
Folder1
subfolder
{ report4
report5
report6}
report1
report2
report3
report4
report5
report6
report7
report8
Can you please help me to understand why he had created sub folder for the existing reports.
Thanks,
Kote

Kota,
It all depends on how your security model is set-up and the number of users/groups within your CMS and if any 3rd party security is also used like AD Auth.
The sort answer is, if security is defined properly at a Folder level and NOT at object level then it should NOT have any effect.

Ajay

How to add drop down list for query manager report in sap business one

Hi Every one,
I need drop down list for parameter selection in sap business one Query Manager.I have two Parameters 'Sales Order','Invoice'.
Please suggest.
Thanks and Regards
DEV

Hi,
you need to use this :
/*select from [dbo].[OINV] T2*/
DECLARE @Invoice varchar(100)
/*where*/
set @Invoice =/* T2.DocNum */N'[%2]'
you can change the tables and the parameter number but you have to write it exactly that way.
when you run the query within the SBO you will get list of objects ( in this case list of invoices)
hope it was helpful

How do I create a new Folder for each test report based on Serial number?

I want to be able to create a new folder for each test report based on serial number. Each time a UUT is tested, I want the report to go to the appropriate folder. What is the best way to do this?
Thanks

Hello Tman,
This is a slightly tricky question. The reason being, the report options like the report path etc, are set before you see the serial number prompt when you run your UUT. There might be other ways of getting around this, but a quick solution would be modifying the process model.
I modified the PreUUT callback to set the report options. I passed the reportOptions as a parameter to this sequence. In the PreUUT sequence, I set the following fields:
Parameters.ReportOptions.GeneratePath=False
Parameters.ReportOptions.ReportFilePath= "c:\\"+ Locals.SerialNumber +"\\report.xml"
I hope this would give you an idea.

Looking for a tool to search text fields in about 1000 reports installed on Business Objects Xi R3

Hi,
i am looking for a tool, program that can search all our reports installed on Business Objects Xi R3 for specific content in text fields and formulas.
We used a couple of years ago .rpt inspector, that worked pretty well for our purpose.
Unfortunately this is Win XP & Win Server 2003 only, so we can't reuse it anymore.
(I know there are way of getting WinXP that in a VMware, but that is not an option in our company.)
So i am interested , if there is another tool out there, which can help us?
regards Alex

Issue running a report from SAP Business One

I have an issue running a particular report from SAP Business One. I am using Crystal Reports Add-On, all of the reports are working fine except one. When accessing the last page of the report or any page from inside the report the followiong error appears in the dialog box:
Error in the File CollectionDate_Branch_wise {609BA059-89AF-41E9-9AEB-28CB16D13852}.rpt:
The request could not be submitted for background processing.

Hi,
Do you mean you have a Main report that is written based on SQL Command and there are 8 subreports linked to the main report?
If that is the case, I assume when user select 'Document Type" eg invoice, it will pass that to the subreport and retrieve information?
This is how I will approach it.
1. Make sure the connection is consistent, if you are using ODBC(RDO) then make sure that is the same for main and subreport. You can check that in Set database connection. Right click on the connection, look at the Properties. Don't assume that the name is the same, eg: SBO_DemoUS, they are all ODBC(RDO) for instannce.
In Crystal, when you are using different connection, it will just prompts you a warning message and it will still run.
2. Delete all and only keep one subreport, example AR invoice and see it will still give a problem.
Replace the parameter with a set value in Record selection in subreport and see what happen.

Problem while importing a Crystal Report in SAP Business One

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem while importing a Crystal Report in SAP Business One, it displaying an error "No matching records found 'Queries' (OUQR) (ODBC -2028) [Message 131-183]" , and there is no use of this table OUQR in the Query.
Kindly let me know the solution.
Regards
Rahul Singh

Hi Rhaul,
i don't exactly know why this is a problem, but if your not on latest (881 p10) then upgrade and try again.
Or as a workaround,
try saveing from CR to SAP with the CR add-on. That usualy works better then the import.

Crystal Reports published on Business Objects Enterprise Server

Hi all,
I am having a few difficulties after i save my crystal report to the Business Objects Enterprise Server XI 3.1.
1) for the reports with static parameters the "Crystal Reports Print Control" doesbnot work. It gets stuck and i guess cannot load the print function. Don't know what exactly causes it but i made two similar one field reports and saved them to the server. One with a dynamic parameter and the other with a static parameter.
The report with static parameter could not be printed.
This happens when i use the HTML viewer for crystal reports. I cannot use the activeX or Java viewers as they mess up the formatting of my Arabic reports.
2) For some reports i get one type of parameter screen (like we get while running through the designer) while for other reports i get a different type of Parameter Entry Screen. Sometimes when i view the report first time i get the former type of parameter screen and when i refresh the report i get the later screen.
3) Also my dynamic parameters are not showing all the values when the reports are saved to the above mentioned server. On my desktop i made the LOV registry tweak and it works fine. I did the same tweak on server registry but it is not working.
Thanks a lot even if u read it

Converting crystal reports 10 to Business Objects XI reports

Hi All I am very new to Business Objects XI R2, I have two doubts if any one knows please give reply to me so that it will be helpful for me.First is :Now I am working for a project called Converting Reports which was created by Crystal Reports 10 TO Business Objects XI reports.Is there any specific way for converting .rpt(Crystal Reports) to .rep (Business Objects) or I have to recreate in Business Objects XI. and Second is: Is it possible, Scheduling BO XI report in java based interface, I heard that it is possible but I don't know how?Please give me, How it is possible? Waiting for replyThanks in Advance 

you will need access to the CMS DB and FRS from CE10 in order to migrate to XI 3.x, typically this is accomplished via network. If you can restore them to the same computer a side by side (install CE10 and XI 3.x on the same server) may work as well.

How to create Webi Reports with SAP BW Objects

Hi,
I have no knowledge on creating webi reports with SAP BW Objects like (InfoCube, DSO, MultiProvider, Infoview, MasterData Infoobject).
As per my understanding Webi reports can be developed with universe which is created on BEx Queries or OLAP BAPI interface, unfortunately i don't have BEx App installed. So, i have to create OLAP universe in this case.
Here my question is can we create universe with all the available BW objects like InfoCube, DSO, MultiProvider, Infoview, MasterData Infoobject.
Please, Can anyone suggest a solution
Thanks,
Siva
Edited by: siva@chinni on Apr 25, 2010 4:45 PM

Hi,
Yes we can create WebI on the top of SAP Objects - InfoCube, DSO, Characteristics etc...
But we have to keep in mind that for WebI we must create Universe.
When we create universe we make direct connection with SAP Objects but we get less functionality - such Calculated Key Figures, Restricted Key Figures, formulas etc. Now you have to achieve all these missing components at Universe Level and at WebI level.
If you are creating your universe on the top of DSO and InfoObject then make sure they set for reporting.
There are some online documentation which tells that what functionality you can achieve.
Check the following document to have a bird's eye view.
[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/100369a7-033e-2c10-94a4-f254f8578153?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
There is another document in PPT which I could not find online. It is very helpful document. It is:

Are there any tutorials or documentation that shows how to work with excel-files as data source or how to upload Crystal reports files (.rpt) to the Explorer?
Thanks in advance for helpful hints.

As far as I know the SAP BUsiness Explorer car retrieve data either from a universe or from the SAP BWA. So hat you should be looking for is information on how to set Excel files as data sources for universes.
