Hi All,

I have added a dimension in filter bar. After running a report it shows All option in the dropdown which is not required.

It is also creating problem for the values in graph on report. Is there any way we can remove the All option from filter bar dropdown?

Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,

I'm facing the following task in WebIntelligence (4.1 SP6):

I have three dimensions in the report: [Region], [District], [Product] and a measure [Sales]. The customer wants to see a table with these three dimension, sorted by Region -> District -> Product. And then the customer wants to see a subtable for Region -> "Total sales" -> Product for each of the regions. However, when I attempt to insert the Product dimension into the Region break footer, it results in #MULTIVALUE.

To make the question clearer, this is the expected result:

Region  | District | Product | Sales

R1      | D1       | P1      |  50

R1      | D1       | P2      | 100

R1      | D2       | P1      | 120

R1      | D2       | P2      | 180

R1      | Total    | P1      | 170 -->

R1      | Total    | P2      | 280 --> these two rows should be in Region break footer

R2      | D3       | P1      |  20

...

and so on, with the table footer containing a breakdown for each product:

...

Total   |          | P1      | 900

Total   |          | P2      | 750

The only option I see now is to turn Region into a section and to place a second table under the first one (in the example above, the first four rows), with sums for each product per region (above, the first two rows in bold), and place a third table with totals for each product outside the section (the last two rows).

But isn't there some easier solution, that would simply use break footers to achieve this result?

Best regards,

Petr

Hi Gurus,

I would like to seek some assistance when it comes to restriction of object of an AA (Analysis Authorization) within WEBI. Within backend, one of the objects (e.g. Sales Org) is being restricted thru its AA after the security role is being created. Then on CMC, the said object was also defined its restriction. However, when checking on the WEBi side, below is showing when I check:

Supposedly, the user should only see the blue colored (data being encrypted due to confidentiality) ones and not the grey ones.

Could you help me if there is specific on Security side that was missing on this one?

Let me know your thoughts.

Warm Regards,

Hi Experts,

Need some guidance on Cascadian List of Values.

I have created acascadian LOV with Region> DistrictSupervoisor>TeritoryExecutive>Customer  and   a conditional prompt is created on Customer.

While using the Customer Conditional Prompt in webi report, a where clause only on custome in getting generated in Report Query. As result if same customer is present in different Regions they are also coming in the result.

It there any way so that condition can be applied in report query with all say  (Region,DistrictSupervoisor,TeritoryExecutive,Customer)  on selecting customer through Conditional prompts

Thanks In Advance

I am using Rich Client and have a report that I will be scheduling to go out monthly. I want it to pull only the previous month's data from the report. Since the report will run automatically, I will not be using a prompt. I cannot make any changes to the universe so it has to be done in the report. I appreciate any help I can get on this.  Thanks.

Hello All,

I have a requirement to create a column line chart with markers/ arrows in it.

System Details:

BI 4.1 SP05 Patch 7

An example of the required chart is shown below:

Please let me know if it's possible to achieve this with Web Intelligence, we have column line charts available however I am not able to understand how to get the markers in this graph. I have seen a trick to merge 2 charts (Merging Charts in WebI) but that might cause issues later.

Please give your valuable inputs.

Hi

My requirement is to build a graph between Events and Date ie between two dimensions only.

For example:

EVENTS :            Kick-off ,      Mock up etc

Original Date :      Apr 2014,     Nov 2014

Latest Revision:    Oct 2015      Nov 2015

As per my understanding , charts/graphs can be build between a dimension and measure.

So can anyone help me in building  graph of this requirement or provide me some work around for this.

Regards//

Hi experts!

I'm looking for example or workaround how to force a BW analysis authorizations to work in BO reporting tools through relational connection (UNX universes).

It functions perfectly through OLAP (BICS) connection in conjunction with the BEx authorization variable + SSO + SAP authorization.

When I launch a WEBI report based on relational connection certainly without a BEx authorization variable I get an error

The same report run fine under the user who have 0BI_ALL authorization object.

And the following is the analysis authorization trace in RSECADMIN.

Thanks in advance!

Hi All

Recently we encountered an issue where we tried to refresh a report with one object in query filter, when we try to select values for that filter its refreshing for ever and not returning any LOVs to select for that filter. The report is based on universe which is created on top of BEx query. When we try to do it via Analysis its happening with out any error. I tried the below but no luck

a. Open Object properties & go to the Properties tab & in Associate List of Values check the option Export with Universe. Refresh the LOV, Save and Export the Universe again. And then try to run the query again.

b. create one more object in the universe for the same field and goto the properties and click display and then click refresh, if you do not get the expected values still then check the database values for that field..

c. I checked in CMC webi server properties and saw its limit is set to 100,000

and also in UDT i see that DISPLAY and EDIT options under properties tab are disabled. Please check the attached screen shot for reference.

Even Tools --> List of values --> Edit a list of values   is also disabled.

Environment:

BO 4.1 SP4 Patch 7

UDT 4.1

Version: 14.1.4.1327

Please suggest.

HI Experts,

I am using SAP BI 4.1

Hi Experts !!

We are looking for a way to trigger webi reports to users every morning after successful data load completion in sap bw.

Currently, we have a fixed time at which the report is emailed to the users through Webi Launchpad. However, sometimes the info provider is not refresh or its load is delayed and the users get the report with old data.

In BW BEx Reports, we handle this by Event Broadcast in Process Chain. Can some help me get the details at WEBI end ?

Thanks in advance !!

Hi Experts,

How do I implement LIKE or CONTAINS kind of operator in WEBI report level.

I can't use Matches Pattern at query as I have to group a column based on report output values.

BEx based report, so can't implement this in Universe.

Requirement:

if ([ObjName] contains 'ABC') then ('QRS')

elseif  ( [ObjName] contains 'DEF') then ('TUV')

elseif([ObjName] contains 'FIG') then ('XUV')

elseif([ObjName] contains 'LMP')  then ('XYZ')

else ([ObjName])

BO Version - 4.1 SP5

Thanks in Advance

Hello,

Using shortcut can we resolve the loop(context/Alias). Is there is any issues occur using shortcutjoin.   If rather than using shortcutjoin in case ordinary join is there getting relevant data or there is any difference.

Thanks Regards,

Ramesh

Hello,

If you run the report in webi  the report is refreshing suddenly if you delete the dimension in webi in middle what will happen wheather it will display the data or not.

Thanks Regards,

Hi!

I've been banging my head against a particular challenge I'm facing off the back of the design of a Universe I operate in. Unfortunately, changing the universe is not a viable option.

My data contains Events, with Start Date(s) and End Date(s) recorded (among hundreds of other datatypes).

What I am attempting to do is create a new report(easy), with a continual date axis(simple enough), where on each date there is a count of events that are still ongoing(not so easy!).

What I've found is that the continual date variable created through a TimeDim() isn't suitable, as each event record is tied to a specific value of the TimeDim variable.

I'm hoping for an output along the lines of the below. The age checks I'm fine with (and don't actually correspond to the below), and the conditional counts, it's the alignment of week to date.

Is there any way to do what I'm trying to do other than manually creating a ton of individual measures, one per run time per week?
