BI 7 Web Design API - Parameter modification - Exception symbol

[Former Member]

Hi,

In the webinar presentation for BI 7 Web Design API, found at -

[https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c0e35cde-2737-2b10-c9b2-b83956cf5ec3]

Tobias Kaufmann suggests that included in samples provided by SAP is a parameter modification interface to "display own exception symbols". This is exactly what we need to do.

Looking at the help text on Web Design API -> BEx Web Interfaces -> Analysis Web Item: Using Parameter Modification (link below), there is no description of such an interface. Can anyone tell me if this intereface exists, and if it does what the parameters are?

Response to my customer message on SAP Service (OSS) asked me to search on SDN! Can anyone help?

Hello Ken!

The documentation about the Modification Module "Own Exception Symbols" is currently not available on help.sap.com.

The documentation is available, if you send me a request to address (see my business card).

Sorry, I cannot upload the document in this thread.

Enjoy,

Tobias

Hi Tobias,

I have similar question, I am trying to freeze the headers of my WAD template so that users dont loose them when they scroll down. I read somewhere it can be done through modification parameter using module com.sap.bi.ip.scrolling (or something where close..i may not be correct on the exact namespace). Where can I find the list of all modules and what they do.

Do you have any documentation on the scrolling module...

Any help is greatly appreciated...

Thanks

Hi Ravi!

I will send you (and all other) the documentation of the Scrolling Module (com.sap.ip.bi.rig.Scrolling).

Once again, sorry for the difficult way. Currently, we are gathering feedback to increase the stability before we publish it to the wide audience.

Additional information: we (SAP) are currently planning to offer a service from SAP Custom Development. This service will include implementation and support of highly customer-specific modules.

Let me know, if you are interested.

Yours,

Tobias

P.S. Thank Ken for the summary...

P.P.S. Here is a complete sample (sorry for scrolling)

Thanks Ken and Tobias.

Tobias, could I also have any documentation you have on the parameter modifications? Thank you!

Hi Mike!

I cannot attach it here. The state is too preliminary to published it in a note. Please drop my a message by...

Hi,

we have implemented the ExceptionImage modification with the code example that Tobias has included (thanks a lot it has been very useful). We have included all the parameters as in your example but the images has not been changed, then we have used only the alert_good, alert_critical and alert_bad parameters and now the images have been changed with our own ones.

That is what we need, but in our web application we have the export to pdf functionality and we have tested it and in the pdf appears the standard images (the old ones).

Maybe we need to include one of the parameters you have included in your code example but if we include it the images don't change. which effect has that parameters in the analysis item?

How can we get the own symbols when we export to pdf?

Many Thanks in advanced.

Best Regards,

Núria

Hello Tobias,

I'm also very interested in the parameters documentation. Could you please forward it to me?

Kind Regards,

Álvaro

Please do not request for the material , I think it is quite clear that a e-mail to Tobias would be appreciated as mentioned above.... to prevent further such requests ... locking the thread....
