Hello experts..!!!

 

I have a issue with creating a cross tab report in Business Objects Infoview-----(WEBI) (3.1)

 

I want to show my report in (Cross Tab) as following       

I want to show if all the Templates: --- in this case (template1, template 2....used in any CASE_ID, ) then display 'Yes' or 'No'  corresponding to Template and columns on left                                                            [ cross tab---     -------------------------------------------------------------------- 

template-1Template2Template3Template4Template5
Case ID
Request-ID
State
Nurse_name
YesNoNoYesYes
1234456NYSarahYesYesNoNoNo
1452234NJJessicaNoNoYesNoNo
4322280CTDebbiNoNoNoNoNo
2567158PAJudyNoNoNoNoNo
4571367VAMichelleYesYesYesYesYes
9865235NCSarahNoNoYesNoNo

objects being used in this table:  Case_ID, Request_ID,State,Nurse_name, Template.

 

Note: CASE_ID can have multiple template......or  one template can belong to multiple CASES.

 

for example: CASE_ID '1234' have used Template-1,4,5) so we displaying Yes.

and CASE_ID='1452' have used template 3( displaying yes) and displaying no for all other retrieved templates)

 

Now what is the best way to show  the above ideal table in cross tab. ( we using template columns for cross tab).

What will be variable or formula to address this issue, i tried couple of formulas , i did not work.

 

I would appreciate your input.

WEBI Joins - Client side or Server?

$
0
0

Hi,

 

I wonder about a question, after many performance issues - Where does the joins happen in the WEBI ?

 

I have a report, with 7 different queries. Many of the fields on each are merged into one, Plus I have tons of variables. (all because of different databases and systems), and my report is being refreshed in like 30 minutes.

 

After wondered about that - Can you please refer me to a document or explain to me how does the join engine works and where does it take place?

Does the report runs the 7 queries simultaneously or one after the other?

 

 

Would appreciate if someone can explain the whole subject of client\server calculations in WEBI according to the question.

 

Best wishes,

Or.

DSN fails on BO Linux to SQL Sever

$

Hello,

I'm trying to setup a ODBC DSN for SQL Server 2012 on Red Hat Linux 6.4. But the connection keeps failing with the following error whenever I try to test the connection using

isql -v [DSN NAME]

I have done the following to configure the DSN

1. Installed ODBC Driver Manager 2.3.0

2. Installed ODBC Driver 11 for Sql server for RHEL 6

3. Updated odbc.ini file in the client installation directory (SAP Business Objects) with the data base server connection parameters.

4. Verified that the Host name, database name and login credentials are correct.

5. Port 1433 on database server is open and listening for tcp connections.

6. Verified that the firewall on linux server is configured to allow connections to the database server.

6. Verified that the database server can be pinged from linux.

Please see the trace file below.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

WEBI : How to count objects on 2 differents date on same array ?

$
0
0

Hi, 

 

I have 3 dimensions : Object / Creation date / Closure date

 

I want to know the number of objects created and closed in the same array agregated by year and by month

 

Example

                       Created                 Closed

 

2013 January     5                              4

        February    0                              2

        March        2                             1

         April          0                             0

        May            3                             8

....

 

and to see all months even if the count for creation and closure  is 0.

 

1) I have try to use year and month based on Creation date, count(creation date;all) is right but the count(closure date;all)  for closure is wrong

2) I try to use timedim with year and month based on Creation date in order to display lines with 0 0  so it's OK but i have closue date bigger than creation date so i don't see them.

 

 

If you can help me,

 

Regards

Webi formula: Create sum with where clause on measure

$
0
0

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a sum of all values in a table which are greater than a specific threshold. Maybe someone can help me here. I haven't figured whether and how this is possible.

 

Here is a simple example:

 

DimensionMeasure
A12
B8
C25
D3
E11

 

I would like to sum up all values that are greater than 10. So I would have 12 + 25 + 11 = 48.

 

The formula I tried in WebI was:

=Sum([Measure]) Where ([Measure] >= 10)

 

The formula is validated with no errors, but the result gives me the grand total ignoring the where clause.

In this example, that would be 12 + 8 + 25 + 3 + 11 = 59.

 

Any idea, how to achieve a formula like the above?

 

Thanks and regards,

Stefan

Webi Publication - Do not send report by email when zero records

$

Hello,

 

I have a report that I am scheduling.  It is using dynamic recipients and personalization based on the recipients.  Some of the recipients will have zero records for the report and I do not wish to send the report by email to them.  I have searched and found a "workaround" of adding a conditioned error in the footer to get a division by zero error if there are no records.  However, the report still runs and gets sent to the recipient with no data.  Any way to accomplish what I want to do?

 

I am using SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 2 Version: 14.1.2.1121


My data sources are Excel, so I am not using a Universe for this particular application.


Thank You in advance.

Currently I have two tabs in a WebI report. The requirement is to export two tabs as seperate PDFs. I know we can use publication for this. But, the user needs to generate pdfs on adhoc basis on their own.They do not want the report to be scheduled. FYI, I am using Business Objects 3.1 Appreciate any responses.

0ORGUNIt time dependent hierarchy not showing all valid nodes in BO , but in BW its correctly shown

$

Hi All,

 

We have 0ORGUNIT hierarchy shown in one of the Webi reports. 0ORGUNIT is time dependent hierarchy.

 

In BW report we can see below nodes for hierarchy

 

Hierarchy                     Valid From         Valid To

Z05 Root Company        01.07.2013        31.12.9999 - Parent node

 

    Z05 Branch 2                 01.10.2013        31.12.9999 - Child Node

    Z05 Division                   09.12.2013        31.12.9999 - Child Node

 

 

In BO webi we can see only two nodes

 

Z05 Root Company        01.07.2013        31.12.9999 - Parent node

 

       Z05 Division                   09.12.2013        31.12.9999 - Child Node

 

 

Any idea why in BO webi the other node is not shown ? This is happening only for time dependent hierarchy and only in BO not in BW.

 

Thanks,

Hi,

 

 

I have an issue that maybe someone else has faced and could help me out. I searched for the same issue but could not find any solution to this.


I am unable to add '%' to the data values in chart. I even tried turning chart to table and then formatting number but when I reconvert it back to chart then complete formatting goes off.I even tried other options like assigning data and changing data value to percent and then customizing it but no luck. When I try doing so all the values gets change to '100%'.


I am working on BO 4.0 patch 11.

 

Kindly let me know if you guys have any idea of how this could be accomplished.

 

Thanks in advance!

Hello Experts,

 

BW (bex) variable "select option" is converted into an interval in WebI.

Is there any enhancement planned on WebI to make it possible to have the select option functionalities in WebI.

 

For example, we have an authorization variable getting several intervals from BW authorization.

In WebI, selecting several intervals on a criteria is not possible.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

Switching Universe from Oracle to SQL ends in errors

$
0
0

I have switched other universes from oracle to sql several times but usually the universes are small, one  to 5 tables.  I just migrated one with over 20 tables and I can't get it to work.  I get incompatiblity errors and when I can get it to work somewhat, the detail lines show up as totals.  I started from scratch on my WEBI.  I included just one query and only added 2 fields from the query and they show up as incompatible.  I think it has something to do with the way the SQL is coming out of the WEBI.  IN the original Oracle version, I have one "Flow" in the design view but for some reason in SQL, it mutated into multiple flows.  I think there are at least 8.  The universe looks exactly like the original.  Table structure is the same.  THe only difference is it's a different source.

 

Message was edited by: Kim Sharp NOTE UPDATE: I forgot about contexts.  I did that and fixed part of my errors.  THere are two contexts in the universe, one for budget and one for actual.  Actual looks fine but budget is still showing totals on the detail lines.  Example.                  Actual MTD           Budget MTD Market1           1030                   5000 Market2           2010                   5000 Market3           2300                   5000 Total                5340                   5000 Also, I have a filter for company.  If I include it in the table it looks good.  If I remove it it shows all companies even though I filter for just one.  There is nothing in the data but all markets show up.  Example, only Markets 1-4 should print according to my parameters.  If I add Company this works.  If company is not in there all markets print                          Actual                Budget Market1            1030                   5000 Market2           2010                   5000 Market3           2300                   5000 Market4            5340                  5000 Market5        Market6 Market7 Co#            Actual                Budget 610           Market1            1030                   5000 610            Market2           2010                   5000 610           Market3           2300                   5000 610            Market4            5340                  5000
