How to list BO Webi Reports names and SQL code from queries?

Hi,

I am new and this is my first post so forgive me if I am putting it in wrong place or if there is solution for it already but I couldn’t find any yet.

I need to list all BO Webi reports names and the SQL code use in the query of them to find those reports which uses tables from wrong data base schema.

I know that I can open manually each report and click on view SQL in edit query but it is not really possible for few thousand reports to check.

I tried already query builder and I was able to find universes and reports related to it but I cannot find sql code to check the actual tables used from the universe in relevant reports.

In the repository server the data are encrypted so I am not sure what I can find there. There is legend somewhere on web which help to decode it but it not contains Turkish letters…

Any help advices would be appreciated.

Thank you a lot for the interest and help.

it is in the OFF TOPIC forum…

I just saw a post (in the SDK forum) where a poster had done this - I’d dig in that forum… You’re into opening each report with the SDK, then getting the sql from each dataprovider - no small feat.

Good luck,
B

Hello B,

Yes you are right the solution for now is to open each report in Bo Info view to check SQL in edit query. No fun at all…
We don’t have access to SDK as I presume it is extra charge?

Thanks for interest of that topic.

It’s basically free - you can write code against the BO libraries with ASP, JSP, Java, and VBS - I have done stuff in Excel, based on code here. Login, query documents, open, get dp, repeat - the individual pieces are mostly all done on the SDK forum for you.

Documentation is on the SAP site, and you can get great examples here and by looking at the BO web pages.

This would not be horrible - if the shutdown drags on much longer, I’ll have time to mess with stuff like this >: /

Thank you B for info it does sound promising.

I will have a look on SDK forum part and maybe I will find something too.

Have a nice weekend.

Take a look at this topic if you have auditing enabled - the activity universe stores executed SQL.
