Xcelsius 2008 Unable to preview BPC Data with EPM connection

Hello,
I'm working with BPC 7.5 for Microsoft platform and I'm trying to integrate it with Xcelsius using EPM Connector.
When I try to preview the screen get struck and just displays "Initializing".
If I remove the connection it works fine.
please give your suggestions.
I tried to install Crystal Reports 2008 FP 3.5 but am not able to install it as it says "the target product is missing or missing the correct version for this update"
Need your expert advice.
thanks,
Bala

    Xcelsius 2008 - Unable to preview changes made in design mode
    I have installed Xcelsius 2008 (RTM) and also Service Pack 1 / Fix Pack 1.1.  Unfortunately, I can now not preview changes I made in design mode (but can see the change in design mode).  In addition, if I save the changes made to the Excel spreadsheet (using this as the datasource) and then exit out of the application, then go back in, the changes have not been saved?!
    I have also installed Fix Pack 1.3, but the same issues occurs.
    This is causing us issues as we have developed a number of dashboards that can no longer be updated.
    Please could someone advise?
    Many thanks,
    Neil.

    I would recommend decomposing large sets into more manageable sets.  For instance, if you have data for a very large regional district, decompose the data into smaller sets for sub-districts.
    As for a paper, I'm not sure, but the main determinant of performance is how many cells you bind to the component.  For a typical component on a typical computer, I'd recommend no more than 9000 cells.  On a weaker computer less, on a stronger computer more.

  • Xcelsius 2008 doesn't preview...

    OK, I'm going crazy.  I've just installed Xcelsius 2008 SP1 on a Vista OS notebook.  It won't preview, either on a new blank file or a sample (nor will it export to any file type....I get the generating Swf notice for abt 5 secs and then it goes away.....nothing else).  I've checked that UAC is off, run as Administrator, checked the player security settings, and re-installed multiple times.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Craig,
    Have you removed the previous installation before installing it?

  • Xcelsius 2008:Unable to Launch Report in Web Browser via Reporting Services

    I am trying to create a dashboard in Xcelsius 2008 using SQL Server Reporting Services.
    In the properties of the 'Reporting Services' button I have selected the 'Select Report' button.
    Once I have input the reporting services URL and select 'submit', a list of all my reports appear on the left hand side. The problem occurs when I select the 'Launch Report in Web Browser' button. When a new browser opens, the URL is trying to access the local host instead of the correct server.
    Do any additional settings need to be updated?
    Thanks,
    Natalie

  • Unable to decompress large data with CL_ABAP_UNGZIP_BINARY_STREAM

    Hello all,
    i would like to stream the huge amount of XML data to the application server compressed. It seems that the class pair CL_ABAP_GZIP_BINARY_STREAM / CL_ABAP_UNGZIP_BINARY_STREAM should do this job.
    So far the compression works, because the compressed chunks are small enough. I considered the dependency between the buffer length and the overall amount of bytes to be compressed.
    The decompression seems to produce some kind memory leak or at least fails for unknown reason. For relatively small compressed data amounts the  CL_ABAP_UNGZIP_BINARY_STREAM works just well. Larger files, even if decompressed within a loop in small portions (max 4KB large chunks or smaller),  can not be decompressed without to increase the buffer size. For very large files (decompressed in loop in a small chunks) the buffer can not be just large enough and the procedure ends up in an out of memory. 
    So either i use  CL_ABAP_GZIP_BINARY_STREAM / CL_ABAP_UNGZIP_BINARY_STREAM  pair wrong or there are some troubles with the memory management inside  the C implementation of these classes.
    If somebody knows about this problem or has got an idea on how to resolve it, any help would be very welcome!
    Here the error message i get:
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_COMPRESSION_ERROR'

    Hi Gena,
    I'm facing exactly the same problem as you...
    Since this post is an old one, I imagine that you may not remember, but I have to try...
    Have you solved it? If yes, could you please tell me how?
    I've tried to use CL_ABAP_GZIP and CL_ABAP_UNGZIP_BINARY_STREAM and I'm getting the same error 30 at the  IctDecompressStream function.
    Tks in advance,
    Flavio.

  • Unable to access Archived data with an ABAP Query

  • Unable to preview Xcelsius result

    Dear BPC Expert,
    I used BPC 7.5NW SP06, Xcelsius Enterprise 2008 SP04, EPM Connector SP05, ODBO SP05, and Adobe flash player 11 in our system. I created a simple Xcelsius report which is only contain BPC Data Grid, linear graph, and refresh button with EPM connection. When I click preview button in Xcelsius console, only the white screen and the word "Initializing" appear. I also tried to export into pdf file and I get same result screen. But, when I delete the refresh button and EPM connection and click preview button in xcelsius console, I can see the result well.
    My question is why I could not see the result when I put refresh button with EPM connection ?
    Kind Regards,

    Hi Nanda,
    OK, so the issue is with the connections. It might be a time-out problem. Does the issue occur even if you only have one LO connection that doesn't fetch much data?
    Or it might be an authentication issue (I can't imagine how though). What authentication are you using?
    As previously mentioned, make sure you're working with FP3.5 in case it's a known issue and has been fixed. If you don't have the ability to upgrade, check the fixed issues list for FP3.5.
    What is your workflow? Are you creating your live office connections in Excel, then importing the spreadsheet?

  • Problem with Xcelsius 2008 sp3 service pack chart slider into adobe flex

    Hello All,
    I tried to use the Xcelsius 2008 SP3 and created a Chart with a slider the new UI element which is introduced in the Service pack versions ..  now i tried to implement the logic in Adobe flex builer 3 setting the compiler properties as hot fix 2.0 . Followed all the rules like creating an action script and creating MXML component.. Now when i try to embed the same swf whic is generated into webdynpro component it gives me error tht some classes or some events or some variables are missing..
    According to my assumption i doubt wether the xcelsius 2008 sp3 will support the adobe flex 3 with this hot fix which i was initialy using .. So can anybody suggest me what can be doen to overcome this issue and make my new chart with slider run in my webdynpro abap :(...
    Regards,
    Sana.

    Hi Sana,
    You might be using Flex 3 sdk library files.
    Just check in Properies of your Flex project -> Flex Build Path -> Library Path .
    You might get the library files as Flex 3.*
    If it is the case then change it to Flex 2.0.1 Hotfix 3.
    now create a new project and compile your application and use the same swf.
    Otherwise try to import any existing Flex 2 project folder with compiler flex 2 ver. then try the same swf in your xcelsius application.
    Regards,
    Vivek

  • SAP Authentication issue in Xcelsius 2008 SP4

    Ingo Can you help me?
    Xcelsius 2008 SP4 Failed to Open/Save from BusinessObjects Enterprise and throws an error Failed While Trying to Logon User "0000" RFC error: "LOGON_DATA_INCOMPLETE" when using SAP Authentication.
    It works perfect with Enterprise.
    Recently we have upgraded from Xcelsius 2008 SP3 FP 3.5 to Xcelsius 2008 SP4. It also displays the password without encrypting.
    BOE 3.1 Sp3
    Integration Kit SP3Fix Pack 3.2
    SAP GUI 720
    Xcelsius 2008 SP4
    It was working good with SAP Authentication when using Xcelsius 2008 SP3 FP3.5
    Thanks
    Dais

    Hi,
    As a starting point, i would strongly recommend you standardise all your component versions.
    from what i can see, you've just asserted that Server, Integration Kit, and Client  are all on different Fix levels..
    that's not a nice baseline on which to investigate!  
    Also, patching would also include importing the correct SAP Transports into your BW. (they change almost every FP)

  • Connecting Microsoft Access to Xcelsius 2008

    Hello All,
    Is there a way to connect Microsoft Access to Xcelsius 2008?
    Thanks

    there is no direct way to connect Xcelsius to MS Access Database or any other database
    there is should be a middle layer between .
    you should use something of the following
    1) XML data Button
    2) Query AS a web Service
    3)Live office Connection
    please read the product guide

  • Can't load data using DB Connect

    I'm trying to use DB connect to load data from an external source database into SAP BW.  Both databases are MSSQL.  I've followed the steps in the document, "Transferring Data with DB Connect".  The table in the source system has all CAPS for the table and the fields. I can see the data in the BW system via screen "DB Connect: Display of data from the database system".  However, when I create an info package and try to load the data, the job seems to hang.  It is stuck in YELLOW status with "0 from 0 records".  Does anyone have a clue?
    Thank you,
    Tony

    dear Tony,
    check if followed already all 'restictions' in oss 512739-BW external DB Connect for MS SQLServer
    Datasource not showing up in RSA3
    To avoid problems loading data, proceed as follows:
    1. Create a special login for the extraction.
    You should add this login to the db_ddladmin database role in the corresponding database. This generates a similar DB user at database level.
    The user you use must have the 'CREATE VIEW' authorization at least. This is contained in the role mentioned above.
    2. For the extraction, you should only use DB views that were created under this DB user. (refer also to type conversion, naming convention and so on)
    3. Assign the necessary authorizations (SELECT at least) to the selected user in the source tables, or the columns of these tables.
    4. Use the specially created login in the logon information when you set up the DB source system in BW.

  • XCelsius 2008 is not backward compatible with ver 4.5

    Post Author: Joseph
    CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
    I tried opening a project that was done with ver 4.5 but it just said that "Crystal Xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or may have features that cannot be supported by this version of Crystal Xcelsius." So i guess I probably have to recreate the project in the 2008 version to take advantage of the new features available. So I imported the excel datasheet used in the old project to a new project in Xcelsius 2008 and tried recreating the objects from scratch. I had started with an accordion menu and two list boxes and then I decided to export to swf to test. However, the result was disappointing. I could only see the two list boxes but not the accordion menu. There was a message saying "Initializing..." that stayed. Does this mean I have to recreate the excel data from scratch as well?

    X2008 is backward compatible with CX4.5.  But Jim is correct. There is a bug in X2008 which prevents it from opening some 4.5 models by double-clicking on the filename.  They can be opened from the File > Open menu.  This only affects opening the model.Due to the many changes between CX4.5 and X2008, the migration of old CX4.5 models is not clean.  Differences will be seen.  Most are cosmetic affecting only the look of the model.  But some tidy up, color changes and re-alignment work must be done.   There was no way to gain the benefits of X2008 and still keep CX4.5 models unchanged.Andy
