Hi,
I have created a tabular model in visual studio [Enterprise 2017 version 15.9.04]
I have deployed it to my analytics server.

I want my college [Enterprise 2017 version 15.09.14] to be able to work on the model also, so they have copied over the complete solutions folder onto their own drive and they opened the file and can see the model and the tables - however when they look at the grid [on design view] it says 'does not support preview' and they can not see the data against the tables.

we have tried to rebuild the model on their machine, and refresh, all connections to the source are working. we then tested and imported a new table into their model, when they do this they can see the data for this table. but still nothing for the other tables.

What could we do to help this? If we want to build tabular models in the future, can we not build them on our desktops and deploy them and share the solutions with others to work on, do they have to be on the servers workspace (desktop).

We googled a few suggested solutions: we checked the configuration properties for the solution was tagged so when it was built it would build everything.
We also tried deleting the bin and obj file closing VS and reopening and and rebuilding everything. Can anyone please help?
Thanks,

My client has Google Analysts for 2 primary domains, and I have a custom carts in other sub domains.

How do I go about and send purchase info to Google Analytics? Do I need to setup the Product IDs within Google? And, is this even possible considering I'm using sub domains.

The intention is to keep the existing code.

Dear Experts
We are likely to get the power BI implementation project for this we have to hire the resources,  the customer will provide various data sources and we have to implement for this  what resources should we have to hire.
 I am not sure power BI developers alone can handle this hence I am thinking that we may require technical architect who can map the requirement to the power BI technology platform and prepares the functional specs and  tech specs document so that Power BI developers can use this document and develop. Please suggest is my understanding is correct and if found incorrect please help met to identify the right resource is it Project Manager/Solution architect/Technical architect who can fit this role and what experience they should be having. Please suggest.

There are 2 questions

1) data analytics addin shows active under file - options - Addis’s but doesn’t show up in toolbar under data in excel

I unchecked and checked add in but still doesn’t show

We have active directory group policy applied but don’t know what to disable or enable under excel 2016 when going to edit the policy

Any suggestions if I need to check trust center settings or protected view settings to be edited

2) my ceo is trying to open excel file and from excel trying to send as an attachment when he does this step it attaches in outlook

But then god knows why before sending he wants to open again and the problem starts ex el file doesn’t open

Vice versa if he opens outlook first and then attaches 3xcel file it opens right away

Any thoughts

Hi:

I really hate that someone has made it very difficult to create or edit a SQL Reporting Services (SSRS) Report.  In the old days, when I worked with SSRS everyday, I simply used the Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS).

Now, you cannot find anything like BIDS in the newer versions of SSRS.  I hate Report Builder and refuse to use it.

Last week, I followed instructions found online and installed Visual Studio Tools.  And, I asked the IT department to reboot the SQL box late at night.  This was all in an effort to find the latest equivalent of BIDS.

But, I cannot find this.

What in the world do I use and how do I find it?

Please help!  I can't believe that this tool has been buried, in the newer version of SSRS.  

Thank you!  Much appreciated!

Dear Experts
We are evaluating right fit product for our business processes and we found Microsoft Dynamics NAV (which is going to be business central) is right fit. We cannot keep our data in cloud and understood Dynamics NAV has on premise deployment option. Now the challenge it has become essential to have advanced analytics reporting and dashboards for which Power BI is one of the  option,  understood power BI has on premise deployment option think we have to go for Power BI Reporting server and at this moment I am not clear about licensing the advanced analytics requirement is for 15 users only.
 If we go for on premise power BI deployment, will the installed power BI application on each of the end user systems OR power BI reporting server which is behind my firewall will it send our data which is residing in on premise server to external/internet server for processing and showing up analytics/dashboards, Our requirement is code and data to be processed and rendered within the applications behind my firewall. we cannot allow our data outside our network. Please suggest.
Also if Microsoft power BI cannot work without connecting to their servers then please suggest any BI software which can suit my requirement. Thanks in advance, this is most critical decision that we have to take, please suggest.

Hi All,

I have a report that have been created a long time ago in Cognos 8, then migrated to Cognos 10, then now in Cognos 11.
It is working perfectly fine in Cognos 10, and the validation of this report gives only a warning "XQE-WRN-0018 The dimensionInfo in V5 query has been deprecated. The query will be planned regardless of dimensionInfo.". Warning I've never been able to solve, and that is not blocking for Cognos 10.

Now in Cognos 11. when trying to validate, the only message I get is "RSV-VAL-0010 Failed to load the report specification. XQE-PLN-0001 Internal error. The query could not be planned by the Query Service: java.lang.NullPointerException ".
I have checked all queries: they are all working when using "view tabular data". No errors, some data are displayed, etc...

Does anybody know how to solve this?
Any help, advice, etc.. will be appreciated...
Thanks!

SAP BI 4.1 - WEBI
This has one data source - a derived Universe for CA Service Desk Manager.

I am trying to add a variable to a report.  This is to check if a field is null.  If it is, return one value; if not, return another.
NOTE:  This issue occurs with ALL functions which have parenthesis - NOT just "isNull()".

Steps to Reproduce:

1.  Open WEBI.
2.  Open an existing report or create a new one where results return at least two fields, one of which may have NULL values.
3.  Create a new variable.(example)
-- Name:  vFirstGroup
-- Qualification:  Dimension
-- Formula:  
      =If isNull([First_Field]) Then [Second_Field] Else [First_Field]
a.  Validate the formula.  Results:  The formula is correct.
b.  Select OK to save the variable.  Results:  Error
    ///////////////////////////////////
Web Intelligence
There is no opening parenthesis after function "isNull" at position 11 (IES 10060)
   ////////////////////////////

The on-line documentation for "IES 10060" says to add the missing parenthesis.  That is not the case here.

This does not occur if creating a variable which does not include functions with parentheses.  For example, this works:
  = If [First_Field] = 0 Then [First_Field] Else [Second_Field]

Thanks in advance.
