I had the impression that a .lov file is only created when one selects 'export with universe' on the list of values, however perhaps I am recalling incorrectly. I can't test this right now as I only have access to a production system and not much room to fiddle around. We have a universe with...

according to http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31SP3/en/xi31_sp3_bip_admin_en.pdf pg 842 there is a field for number of retries and interval within scheduling> recurrence, and I remember these fields, however can't see them in my system. do you see these fields? what...

Hi, we have recently added some new servers for deski and webi and I just noticed that the folks who added these put spaces. is this normally considered ok, or might it result in issues? ex: "server1.desktopintelligencejobserver 2" instead of ""server1.desktopintelligencejobserver2" <-- is...

one last try....anyone have any thoughts on this one? thanks!

both deski and webi. the scheduling function itself seems to be in question.

it's been a while for me coding for crystal, but I believe you'd need to start with instr function. some code something like this - I am sure I have some typos: local numbervar startofstring1; startofstring1:=instr(USPipcouplers=)+15 (the 15 is to get you to the start of the string you really...

what exactly are you clicking on, the failed status or something else?

are you talking about failover set up, or are you referring to every 2 years you get a new server?

we have reports hanging in pending from time to time, and haven't been horribly concerned about it, however a new group just added content to our system and they need scheduling to work perfectly; we have been around in circles with sap, so figured I'd post here: anyone have this issue? reports...

I am working with someone new and they have suggested to me that too many redundant cms services running (say on 3 or 4 servers) will not offer improvement in processing but might actually cause issues as opposed to setting up 2 cms to run on 2 servers, and have any remaining servers running...

please let me know what others recommend for analyzing report usage (counts, frequency, # of users, users by type of report, disabled users, etc). third party tools or just stick with webi reports/activity universe/query builder. Also wondered about best tool/s for review of security settings...

Due to limited resources I am being asked to consider whether we could install boxi 4.0 pro on the same server as 3.1. Normally I would say why give yourself the headache, but I am considering it, since the folders, frs and most other components would likely be easy to keep separate. My main...

BOXI 3.1 SP5, Pro - just upgraded, so maybe this is related to SP5? Windows Server 2003 R2. We are seeing intermittent issues with REFRESH DATE in the lower right corner of a webi report (might be deski too). Refresh date will be far in the past, and even the data is not in line with what is...

Does anyone know if SAP Data Integrator can be installed/used totally stand alone from a business object cms? Seems like it ought to be possible, but person installing so far has not been able to figure out a way to get around request for CMS info. (or Data Services). thanks! -if this is the...

We have Data Integrator installed on a server which we log into to make changes, etc. Upon first opening DI designer, it freezes (won't open anything) After closing and reopening a few times (approx 6 or 7 times) it works like a charm. WT?? Why on earth would this be the case? thanks for any...
