BI Report output appear wider than normal

[Former Member]

Hi,

We upgraded the BI system from BI 7.0 to BI 7.1. After upgrading the BI development system, we found some changes in the Web report output. One of them is below:

The columns (all columns, char and key figure) appear wider than normal. So we are wasting lot of space in the report. Is there any setting on the web template, or elsewhere, to u2018auto sizeu2019 the columns?

Please reply to this thread if you know the answer. Points will be assigned.

Thanks in advance,

Hi PReddy,

you can use modification module com.sap.ip.bi.rig.ColumnWidth in the Web item analysis to set fixed column widths...
