Pass prompt value by open doc to BI Mobile Report

[Former Member]

Hi ,

i'm trying to open a BI Mobile report with open document on my ipad.

This BI mobile report is a WEbi report and have this prompt : Year .

I would link to open this report passing also an value to "Year" prompt.

I'm using this type of command to open to open the document on ipad:

sapbi://OpenDoc/?ConnectionType=BOEConnection&connection_name=123&serv

er_url=10.10.10.10:8080&cms=10.10.10.10&Type=webi&iDocID=AXtcyDP4u09Jn1_P9BSR9H0&reportPartKey=&rep

ortPageNumber=0&reportIndex=&isInstance=N&prompt=

Could you suggest me how i can pass the value for my prompt "Year"?

Thank's a lot.

Greetings.

I did face some challenges to do this few months back ; took a long time to finally figure it out

Here is my actual working link which might of help where I am passing Building ID as parameter..

="iDocID=AWEBBiaZEkZLm5Vkv7htOWo&sIDType=CUID&sType=wid&sRefresh=Y&sReportName=MFGLOCProductAnalysis&sReportPart=Block1&lsSBuilding="+[Building Id]

One thing you will have to be careful here for the report name parameter all it is asking for is the tab name and not the report file name...

HI,

However, i have observed that dynamic prompts are not read by the SAP BI app as of yet.

A user wanted to pass the prompts run time in the URL, which did not work.

I will try the above mentioned again!!

may be i missed something

Hi Andrea,

There's an easy way to generate the link with the prompt parameter.

1. Refresh the report and select your parameters

2. Open the tool bar by tapping the gear icon in the top right

3. Tap on Email

4. Your email will open and contain a SAP BI link that will pass the parameter

Hello Andrea,

Please check the guide:-

http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4sp6_mobile_user_en.pdf

look for section "Linking Documents"

You have to pass the prompt text of the report.

e.g.

lsS[NAME]

          lsS[NAME] specifies a value for a single prompt. [NAME] represents the text of the prompt.

lsM[NAME]

          lsM[NAME] specifies multiple values for a prompt. [NAME] represents the text of the prompt.

Note:

SAP BusinessObjects Mobile is case sensitive, so you need to use the exact syntax specified above.

Thanks,

Hi,

i don't find the section "Linking Documents".

I tried to use this url in the Ipad device:

sapbi://OpenDoc/?ConnectionType=BOEConnection&connection_name=123&serv

er_url=10.10.10.10:8080&cms=10.10.10.10&Type=webi&iDocID=AXtcyDP4u09Jn1_P9BSR9H0&reportPartKey=&rep

ortPageNumber=0&reportIndex=&isInstance=N&prompt=

sapbi://OpenDoc/?ConnectionType=BOEConnection&....&prompt=lsS[Year]=2012

but doesn't work.

Thank you very much.

Greetings.

er_url=10.10.10.10:8080&cms=10.10.10.10&Type=webi&iDocID=AXtcyDP4u09Jn1_P9BSR9H0&reportPartKey=&rep
