≪ Previous: Disable refresh option in crystal reports BI 4.1.

Hi,

I am new to SL SDK. I am able to successfully retrieve an unx from repository and save it in local.

Now I want to extract its metadata.

Is there a way to identify whether the universe uses Multisourcedatafoundation or Monosourcedatafoundation other than verifying number of connection files getting downloaded.

If I have more views other than Master view in my Businesslayer how identify and access them through SL Sdk.

Regards,

Subramanian S.

Hi Team,

When we schedule the crystal report, and destination set as inbox, we get 'Copy' as default option selected.

In our case the users schedule the report to groups which leads to create multiple copies of single report in OFRS resulting low disk space.

Is there a way we can set 'Shortcut' as the default option.

Env: Windows 2008

BO version: BO XI 3.1 Sp5

Default tomcat 5.5

Please let me know in case of more queries.

Regards,

Mitesh Joshi

≫ Next: Instance manager like output code modification

≪ Previous: Default as Shortcut for BI Inbox Destination

We are on BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 SP5.

Basic email content configuration within CMC only support text based emails and does not support HTML. We would like to send out HTML rich emails to our users when a report is completed as a result of a schedule execution. In addition, we would also like to include additional information in the emails that isn't available through the placeholders but only through the SDK API. We are creating schedules through the API and users are not going through CMC or Launchpad.

I am interested in hear solution ideas. My research is just starting but for now the only ideas I have are following:

Create a Crystal Reports processing extension - this option requires C++ programming and only applies to Crystal Reports. Further, processing extensions while supported in 4.1 do not seem to be in use much and support for future is unclear.
Use File System (or FTP) destination and post process - this requires us to save users email information (to, cc, bcc, subject, etc.) somewhere and not as part of the destination (I think).
Implement customization on the email server - we can look into this but not sure what options are available yet.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Instance manager like output code modification

Dear Experts,

I have a two jsp codes where it produces a tabular webpage output similar to Instance manager.

1. I would like to add Error Message to the code, I guess getErrorMessage() gives but not sure how to add it in the code.

2. When the Folder Path is null the adjacent column data is moved left.

3. Is it possible to run this code as a program object and schedule using CMC?
