I am developing reports using BI Publisher 11.1.7.
The problem is that when end user downloads the report. The name of file is like this "report name_layout name" and space exist in name are replaced by %20 which looks quite wired.
Is there any way to specify the names of the generated report file
I think this replacement is done by your web server or browser. Some browsers replace the space with %20, and some with + signs.
You can change this in 'Edit layout' at 'label and formatting'

We've recently enabled the Unified Interface on our Dynamics 365 CE web client and noticed that the fullname is missing from the Contact forms and several views. It is there when we open the Form editor, but when we're running formContext.getAttribute("fullname") it returns a null.
It's causing us a big headache as we're using the fullname basically everywhere: in forms, views, Document templates, JavaScripts etc.
Has anyone come across this problem or knows a workaround without having to replace the fullname with first and last name everywhere in our environment?
According to Microsoft it's officially not ready before April 2020 (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/about-unified-interface#capabilities-not-yet-on-unified-interface), but we need to start testing before that.
Many thanks in advance
Composite control is not available in UCI yet. So the popup will not be showing up to do data entry. That means the Full name field will display as the child individual fields, ie. First name & Last name. The data changes in any of the First name or Last name will replicate to Full name field.
Only changes needed is in form scripting. Whenever/wherever you are accessing the Full name field like formContext.getAttribute("fullname") just switch it to formContext.getAttribute("firstname") + " " + formContext.getAttribute("lastname") if the script is executing in UCI.
I just tested this quickly in my UCI. Also views showing the Full name field without issues. Templates should not be a problem if data is there. Only problem is in form, so the above script will solve the issue.
I am on Oracle Reports 10g, and I have an RDF that I would like to schedule to run and create a PDF on my local folder. I thought this URL would work:
http://mywebsite.com/reports/rwservlet?server=RptSvr_core2pweb99_asinst_1+userid=myuserid/password#database+report=/home/oracle/middleware/Oracle_FRHome1/forms/v10suite/GL573.rdf+destype=file+desname=c:\temp\GL573.pdf+desformat=pdf+P_unit=26014+P_TTLCOMP_YN=N
My report is on an app server. If I changed the DESTYPE from FILE to CACHE and removed the DESNAME in the URL above, it would create a report in the browser.
Please advise, what am I missing?
OR, is there some way to create a report executable that I can run from my Windows 7 PC to create a PDF? (I was able to do this on Windows XP with RWRUN.)
Only problem is of using wrong concatenation operator + which should be &, instead, before parameter names as in the following string :
http://mywebsite.com/reports/rwservlet?
server=RptSvr_core2pweb99_asinst_1
&userid=myuserid/password#database
&report=/home/oracle/middleware/Oracle_FRHome1/forms/v10suite/GL573.rdf
&destype=file
&desname=c:\temp\GL573.pdf
&desformat=pdf
&P_unit=26014&P_TTLCOMP_YN=N
P.S. without spaces inside string as in your case.
I am working on automation script to install a WAR in the Websphere using WSADMIN console. It leaves random string at the end of the application name.
If the application name is 'test.war', name appears as 'test.war1525e76b1cb'. Has anyone come across this issue before? Any solutions worked. I need the application name to match the artifact to use isAppReady and start the application.
I believe not providing specific app name appends random string to the artifact name and sets as application display name. This line of code with -appname option did the trick.
AdminApp.install(appPath,['-appname '+app_name+'','-MapWebModToVH', [['.*', '.*', 'default_host']]])
I have a SSRS 2008 R2 report, with a parameter employeeID. When we do the data driven subscription I am exporting the report into a PDF file.
The PDF is saved/generated as reportname.pdf by default.Can we save the pdf as reportparameter.pdf.
Example:If we have an employeeID as 223,can the PDF generated for that emoloyeeID be saved as 223.pdf.
Does SSRS support this scenario when the method of delivery is through email ?
The only way save the filename as you indicate would be using the ssrs api. You can't save to another filename using the subscription service as it will use the report name as the filename :(
you might want to check out Boomerang Notification Services for SQL server from Fuel9. The framework is easy to use and you can among other things control each file name. I think I have some sample code (tsql) doing just this so let me know if you interested and I'll see if I can dig it up for you.

Any advice on how to use PDI transformation as data source for report parameters in BI server's console?
I've uploaded the prpt reports to BI server but the I get a message "Error parsing parameter information". The .prpt and .ktr files are both in the same directory.
Actually, just realized that the issue could be solved by adding Transformation (KTR) as a resource. In this case, one can use the File-Resources menu selection. In the dialog select the transformation you wish to import and pick text/xml format. Give the resource a name and save it. You must save your PRPT file again (File-Save).
The caveat here is that transformation should be in the same folder as PRPT file. Then in the data sources, don't select transformation via folder path, but use the name of the resource that was assigned during the previous step (there is no drop down menu for looking thorough the files). You have to know exact name of the resource in order to do so.
Check the logs carefully. I suspect it's not finding the KTR. When you select the KTR in the prpt it usually (annoyingly) saves the whole path, so it's probably the full path to the ktr as defined on your dev box.
This does work, so do persevere!
