Writing Scripts in Web Analysis

Is it possible to generate Web Analysis reports using some scripts in the way we generate Data forms through scripts?
Does any concept of scripting exist in Web Analysis?
This is an urgent issue. Please let me know if anyone has any idea.
Regards
Rahul

WebAnalysis is limited to the usage of a list of objects such as grids, radio buttons, etc. . There is no usage of scripts in Web Analysis.

Question with web analysis

Hi,Experts..
Here is a criitcal situation for me..
we are using web analysis as a reporting tool.In generatin one report..the "Rate difference must be calculated".
The importatnt thing is rate difference is a fact value(not available in the cube) which calculated from "version-1 volume minus version-2 volume" (1003->volume - 1000->volume).whwn i try to do in analysis tool functionality in web analysis,the rate difference will be coming as in 2 columns for both version...
My idea is to write a calculation script.but while writing calculation script the rate difference will not be there in the cube level..if i write the scripts how can i validate...
How to proceed to this?

Hi,
I'm not quite sure how your outline is- & your complete reporting requirements(,for the report you mentioned).
However, I presume, Version is one of the dimensions having *1000* & *1003* as members. And, Volume is one of the members in your Measures+ dimension.
If yes, what's the issue if we select Version(s) in Column & Volume in the row. You can certainly add a column-level calculation for seeing the desired difference.
Let us know incase of any concerns.

Web-Analysis Get Current Day and Display

Hello,
I have a web-analysis report that should show the current business day.
I thought this can be done by using a substitution variable. Are there any better ways?
Thanks,
metalray

Hello -
Yes, you will have to update the Substi Var everyday with the current day. You can do it manualy through EAS or you can try to automate the same. One way is to use maxl script an example below -
login 'Hypadmin' '#########' on myessbaseserver;
spool on to 'mymaxl.log';
/* Setting the substitution variable */
alter database appname.databasename set variable 'CurMonth' 'Aug';
display variable all;
spool off;
Logout;
Exit;
You can call this maxl from a batch file scheduled from windows scheduled task to run every day at say for example at 1am in the morning.

Web Analysis report is not coming with the border/logo/heading while print

Hi All,
I am using 9.3.1 version of hyperion planning were Web Analysis report is not coming with the border/logo/heading while printing with the option "print all object", Only the data grid is coming in the print. If I use "print screen" it is coming with border/logo/heading but it gives a screenshot of the report, that won't cater out need.
So please suggest us with a resolution to have border, logo and heading, while using Print all object.
Thanks with regards....
Rao

Hi Sagar,
In scripts when you will see print preview the logo will be not shown up with clarity.Take the print out of the document and check whether logo is printing up with clarity.
Thanks

SQL Spreadsheet report in Web Analysis 9.3.0.1

We just migrated to 9.3.0.1 from 7.x and have a problem getting the JDBC connection setup for SQL Spreadsheets from Web Analysis. We are running on Windows 2003 and Websphere 5.1.1. In 7.x the configuration was part of the installer or configuration tool, however I cannot find any JDBC setup to allow this in the 9.3.0.1 documentation. We are missing something, just don't know what it is.
Rob Armstrong

I also receive the same error in 9.3.1. At first I thought maybe the query of "Select * from table" wouldn't work without column names being listed, however changing to select specific columns also did not work.
We don't typically use this, however I was able to get this working by using the "Query Builder" option instead of writing my own query. Once I generated the query, drop the SQL subscription object on the report, select the datasource, then you should see the columns from the query.
I also tested this in 9.3.0 and was able to use the query I typed in and did not have to use the query builder button.

Problem in calculation with web analysis

Hi, Experts..
Here is an interesting quetion...with Web Analysis
I need to calculate mat ov/kg for a site which is obatained by (total value/total volume). When i went for calculation option in analysis tool manager and apply formula this,It is taking for only one site calculation not happening for the other sites.Totally we have 60 sites with us and would not be flexible to calculate it individually.
Is there any possibility to run calc scripts...in web analysis... or how to solve this problem?

It might be because you have set up the 60 sites individually within the Web Analysis grid? We had some difficulty when first using Web Analysis and needed to put the calculations at the highest level using the calc manager. You also have to be careful if there are lots of columns, due to the way the calculation manager applies calcs and formats due to the inheritance.
Another option would be to push the calculation back to the cube, which is best practice as it's easier, more scalable for deployments.

Wrting back in IR and web analysis

how do you write back in web analysis and Interactive reporting to the database

You can use Web Analysis to write back to Essbase as long as the user has access and the intersections you are writing to are editable (not a calc, etc).
To do this you can access the 'Edit Data' feature from the right click menu or you could put a 'Services' button on the report/dashboard so the user doesn't have to go to the right click menu.
There are two types of Edit Data service buttons. One is a normal Edit Data button which will edit whichever data object (i.e. grid, chart, etc) is "in focus" or has been selected. The 'Assign Edit Data' button allows you to pick which data source the Edit Data will be assigned to ahead of time when setting up the button.
You will have to test these in the Workspace, though. I don't think the Edit Data buttons were supported in the Workspace; however, I hear that in 9.3.1 they are now.

Do I need to do any modifications in my configuration or property files....

Hi,
Regarding Web Analysis- I believe- It's a problem of JRE.
- Just remove/uninstall the JRE from your Currently installed Programs. You may want to reboot the m/c
- Open Web Analysis Studio in the Web browser. Now, since it can't find JRE, it'll set up the relevant JRE for you & you may continue using Web Analysis.
- Please note- Unless you've changed to a different one during configuration, Web Analysis operates on 16000 port.
Check the following regarding Workspace-
- Your service may be down, thus, throwing Network error
- You may've to re-configure Workspace. Start the service & wait for few mins. before opening Workspace.

Issue while opening the web analysis reports

Hi,
One of our user is not able to open a web analysis report with an error messages saying
"Java.Lang.Exception: Unexpected HTTP status code of 500 received from server"
"Document does not exist or no authorization to open the document"
Other users with the same level of access are able to open the report fine and also the same user is able to access the report fine with a test id from his machine.
What could be wrong? Any suggestions please.
The only thing I see here, something wrong with userd ID or password.
Thanks
Prasad

Hi,
I had also faced this problem earlier. I was using HFM as data source for WA reports. After searching I found that there was some change at HFM level. Some dimensions/members had been deleted or added in HFM. And I was using those missing members in WA Grid.
I had to recreate my reports again as I didn't get any other way to deal with this problem.
Please shared any other alternative option, if you found while working on this issue.
Thanks & Regards,

Issue opening Web Analysis report

I create, with buttons, links between reports in web analysis. Sometimes when I click on one of them in workspace, it doesn't open linked report, but another one. Furthermore this last one is automatically saved as the previous report, and I can't open the original linked report. Any suggestion about this ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Natesh,
Thanks for your reply to my query posted in this forum. Please find my inline answers between asterisk to your questions:
Whatz the source of your Grid? Relational SQL Query (OR) A spreadsheet with Essbase database connection file?
* Yes, the source is Essbase.*
If source is Essbase, it seems- Outline might've got altered when you're trying to refresh the report.
* The outline was in tandem when we tried running this report in WebAnalysis. This outline & WebAnalysis report which is in Dev Server is a replica of the one in Test Server where it runs fine. *
If source is based on a Relational SQL query, chances are that- Query is no longer valid.
* NA as this statement is NOT applicable to our source.*
If it's Essbase, it's also likely that- It ran out of time while fetching the data from Essbase. You may try playing around with the parameters in Essbase.cfg file.
* This might be one of the causes, but I double checked the all the tunning parameters in Essbase.cfg file in place.*
Could you please through more observation on this issue. Let me know if any further information is needed!.
Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Krishan

Unable to open web analysis reports through workspace

Hi,
I am connecting web analysis with MSSQL server 2000 and generating reports. I am using essbase 9.3.1 version.
But my problem now is that I can just open these reports from web analysis studio and cannot open them from workspace. In workspace, if I right click on the report and open it from web analysis studio it does open. But it does not open by double clicking the report in workspace. It just shows a blank report on just parts of the report.
The issue is only there for the reports that are getting data from relational db (MSSQL server 2000). The other reports that are using the cube data are fine and opening from everywhere.
Are there any other configuration settings involved in order to open a web analysis report(that uses relational db) from workspace?
Thanks in advance,
John

Hi Atul,
Try using the in built config checker:
http://localhost:16000/WebAnalysis/config
This has several tests you can perform to see what's running.

As report was exceding 65000 records we have modified the report by adding the pages and reduced the count of output records. So the issue was resolved.

Error Launching Web Analysis Report from the Hyperion Workspace

Hi Everyone
When launching the report as a HTML from the Workspace, the output flashes briefly on screen
The view in the content pane disappears to leave a blank screen.
When I Select View | Refresh. The following result is returned "Web Analysis Information" -1
I have set the report in start up preferences. And Web Analysis preferences set to open as HTML
After logging on again the following error is shown " An attempt to open "Actual vs Budget" Failed
Show Details displays: this.getFocusRoot() is nullor not an object
The reports all display correctly when launched from the Web Analysis studio
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Hi Ian,
Thanks for the advise but I have looked into your possible solution and referred to the Web Analysis user guide. I have a number of reports and when selecting the Design for HTML option - a number of objects are valid and should be displayed in the workspace.
After creating reports from scratch - with valid objects - the problem still persists.
Unfortunately, I don't think this provides a solution to the problem.
Cheers
