Pentaho CDE new charts not rendering - render

New charts I add to an existing CDE dashboard are not rendering. Existing charts are working ok.
I have also created brand new dashboards and the same problem occurred.
I checked Pentaho - charts not displaying in CDE dashboards and Pentaho CDE Bar chart display. I am not in a position to reinstall everything as this is a live system. However, I tried it on a backup installation and the same problem occurred. I also checked the height and width as suggested in the second posting and they are ok.
Using the developer tools on the rendered objects I see the following (sorry in advance for using screenshots):
The working pie chart
The non-working pie chart
Both pie charts are accessing the same query so they should be the same.
I hope someone can help.
Thanks,
Fergus

Export custom chart from microstrategy dashboard

I want to export my custom chart as PDF in MicroStrategy. I am using D3.js with MicroStrategy 10.4 to build my own charts but I have a problem with the export.
Is there some code which I probably miss to enable the export function? You can find my JS code at GitHub.
This picture is what I see on MicroStrategy if I am creating a new Dashboard with my personal D3 chart.
But what I get after clicking "Export to PDF" I have this result:
I just see a table. But if I am trying to export one of the standard charts from MicroStrategy it works! So I think the porblem is in my JS code.
Can someone tell me that I am right with my guess or is the export-functionallity just available for the standard charts?
Thanks a lot

CRM Online 2015 Update 1 charts show all data from the underlying views until the charts are manually refreshed

In CRM Online 2015 Update 1 instances I experience charts on forms not showing the correct data until they are manually refreshed.
Charts in general show all data from the underlying view when the form is loaded. Only after manually refreshing a certain chart does it show "Only Related Records".
As an example, I have added a chart to the Account entity as seen below. Both the chart and the shown subgrid are using the same view. Even though there is only 1 related record the chart shows all data from "My Open Opportunities" after form load:
After refreshing the chart by clicking the small recycle-icon the correct data related to the current record (in this case 1) is shown:
I have tested this in 3 different CRM Online 2015 Update 1 instances which all exhibit the same behavior. Additionally, this is seen for both system and custom entities.
A similar chart setup in CRM Online 2015 without Update 1 works as expected.
I've got the same problem.
Microsoft has changed how they load forms. For now, you can switch back to the old way by going to Settings -> Administration -> System Settings -> General tab, and selecting Yes for “Use legacy form rendering”
This is only a temporary measure as that option is likely to be removed, but maybe Microsoft will support charts in forms or whatever the issue is by then.
PS:
Drawback is that the new way of loading forms is much faster, so you'll lose som e time if you switch back.
I Haven't tested this yet, but maybe you could add some javascript on the onLoad event to automatically select the view, like your users have to do now manually:
Xrm.Page.getControl(subgridname).getViewSelector().setCurrentView(viewname);
but this isn't pretty either
This issue is supposed to be fixed in Service Update 1 for Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online 7.1.1. From the changelog: "Charts within a subgrid are displaying all records when they should actually display only related records.".
The expected release date is around the middle of December.

odoo / OpenERP V8 - Tutorial on QWeb Reports

I am trying to start with odoo. One of the most import thing for us would be to generate different layout for sale orders.
I've started with this document: https://github.com/odoo/odoodays-2014/blob/master/v8_reporting_engine/index.rst
It is from the "odoodays 2014" and shows how to customize an existing report. This works fine. I don't understand the points under "Generic / particular report".
Now I'm lost trying to add a new report (starting with a copy of the exisiting report) with a custom template.
I've tried to add a new item in the report view in settings, but I can't add any linked qweb views (I've added a new one, but it didn't get a new ID).
I've tried to create a copy in the views directory of the addon but it didn't help.
Is there any tutorial for this ?
Is there somebody who can give me some pointers how to add a new report ?
After searching around I've come to this solution. I've translated all the menu headers from German, because I'm using Odoo in German.
reports are listed in Settings / Reporting / Reports
you can click one of the reports
if you edit one of the reports you can click on "Search for linked QWeb Views" - you can click and change these views. They are in HTML and are used for the data in the reports
New reports are typically added with a plugin.
If you would like to change the report with the website editor you can install the website builder. If you change one of the reports from PDF to HTML (in Settings / Reporting / Reports) you get a popup when you're generating the report.
In this popup you can change the report template. With this you can change the template with the website builder tools.
These reports are saved in the database in the table ir_ui_view. If you change to another database they still have the original reports (this was my big fear - that changing the reports changes them for all databases).
Header and footer are still changed in the company settings with RDL.
So basically everything from the odoodays-2014 document is working like they've showed on this website - it was just pretty hard to find out how these things worked.

cognos report sorting different when exporting to excel

im new to cognos reporting. I have created a report using report studio. It has tables and charts.
Then I added an export link to excel using drill down.
The problem occurs when im doing export. The sort order in html version is different in the exported version.
What seems to be the problem?
Thanks.
Already solved the problem. I just need to set the category axis property of reverse category order to NO then problem solved.
I already found the solution. Since we've migrated from cognos 8 to cognos 10. The charts was not migrated properly. So I just did a convert chart so it will be migrated to cognos 10. After doing that, I just need to set the category axis property of reverse category order to NO then problem solved.
Thanks.

Cognos Report Studio: how to export data table attached to chart in excel

Cognos Report Studio: how to export data table attached to chart in excel
I want to export a cognos report out to excel. In my report, there are two tables and two charts. When I export to excel, the charts are rendered as static images. What I want is to export the cognos report with two charts which data sources are from the two tables. Like simple charts in excel, chart data range is selected from the table.
The purpose of doing this, is for me to be able to import the excel charts to Roambi. Roambi needs a chart which data range is from a table.
Thanks a lot.

What Cognos BI version do you have?
In Cognos 10.2 Chart is exported as Chart in Excel 2007. And you can unhide hidden list of data for chart.
But ykud is right - try Active report for mobile users.
Thank you, Alexey Baturin!
I am using cognos 10.2. And I found out that there is chart data in the hidden tabs. Sorry for late reply bcos I didn't see it.
I found out that there is chart data and it's only importing problem in Roambi.
I uploaded to the sharepoint as a data source for Roambi. But I can't import this file sometimes, showing the error "This file has no content. It cannot be imported". This is inconsistent.
I have found out a way to resolve:
I export the cognos report to excel.
Open the excel file, Save and Close. No need to change anything.
And upload to sharepoint.
Then I have no error and can import to Roambi.
I can’t afford any manual intervention like this, for this process.
