Business Objects Issue and Workaround – UPDATE 2
All SPOCs, Technical Contacts, and CAD Contacts:
December 11, 2024 UPDATE 2: The BO production environment was experiencing congestion and running slowly this morning. As a result, the BO team performed a reboot at 11:30 AM. The reboot was successful, and everything is now functioning properly.
_________________________________________________________________
December 11, 2024 UPDATE: The CWDS custom branding effort failed last night and the Business Objects (BO) login screen was reverted to the generic SAP version. The BO team will research this branding issue and then determine the next steps in regards to this effort.
Meanwhile, the BO production environment is down this morning. The BO team is researching the cause, including if it is related to last night’s rollback following the failed custom branding effort.
The BO reports did not run last night. Once the BO environment has recovered, users will need to review the reports, and run them if needed.
Additional communications will be delivered as new updates are provided.
_________________________________________________________________
December 6, 2024 UPDATE: The CWDS Office and IBM have scheduled an outage for the Business Objects (BO) server to update the branding on the Business Intelligence login screen. Following the update, the branding will return to the normal CWDS branding instead of the generic SAP screens. The scheduled BO maintenance outage will be on Tuesday, December 10, 2024, beginning at 4:00 PM and concluding at 4:30 PM.
BO will not be available during the scheduled outage.
The CWDS Office and IBM continue to work with the vendor on the issue regarding transferring reports to and from the Rich Client server. An additional update will be provided once the fix for that issue has been determined.
_________________________________________________________________________________
November 21, 2024 UPDATE: After working with the Business Objects vendor, IBM and the CWDS Infrastructure team are reporting that Business Objects is now up and operational, with a few limited issues / differences that remain to be resolved.
Please Note: The login screens will look a bit different. Generic SAP screens will be used temporarily and will be updated at a later date (please see screenshot below).
In addition, there appears to be an issue with transferring reports from Rich Client to the server and back. IBM and the Infrastructure team will work with the vendor as a fix for this specific continuing issue becomes available.
Screenshot of the generic login screen:
__________________________________________________________________________________________
November 20, 2024 UPDATE: Several issues have been identified after the installation of the Business Objects patch upgrade. Work is taking place now to resolve those issues and a communication will be shared once resolved.
_______________________________________________________________________
November 20, 2024 FINAL UPDATE: The installation of the Business Objects patch upgrade has completed. Business Objects is now accessible; however, users may experience degraded performance while the Business Objects server catches up on the scheduled jobs from this morning. The CWDS Infrastructure team and IBM are monitoring for potential issues.
NOTE: Web Intelligence Rich Client users may need to update their workstation installation of the client.
_______________________________________________________________________
November 20, 2024 UPDATE: This is a reminder that the Business Objects production environment is not available this morning, to install a patch update. A follow-up communication will be sent out once the environment has become available, estimated to occur at around 12:00 Noon.
________________________________________________________________________
UPDATE: We are applying a patch to address this Business Objects issue, which will be implemented in both the Training and Production Environments. These environments will be unavailable during the following patch periods:
Action Required
If users experience any issues please follow your county process for reporting issues or you may contact the IBM Boulder Help Desk at 1-800-428-8268.
_____________________________________________________________________________
An issue has been discovered with the current version of Business Objects used with the CWS/CMS application.
Issue Description:
Whenever a numeric field, such as government entity code, is used as a condition in a data provider (query), the query will run correctly the first time. Whenever the data provider is edited, the system will return a type mismatch error and require the user to remove and re-add the condition. The query will then run, as long as it is not edited again.
This only appears to be an issue with numeric fields; character fields, such as Client Name, do not experience this issue. Once the query is run, it operates normally as long as the user does not go back and edit the data provider. The user can refresh the data and save, as well as edit the report formatting, without issue.
Issue Resolution:
A patch level update will be required to resolve the issue. The CWDS Office and IBM are evaluating the next Business Objects patch to determine if it will resolve the issue, without generating any new issues. There is currently no estimated time of when the patch will be implemented. Additional updates will be sent out as new information is received.
Workaround:
When Business Objects informs the user of a type mismatch error after a numeric field is used as a condition in a data provider, and the data provider is edited, then the user must remove and re-enter the condition. The query will run, without issue, as long as the data provider is not edited again.
Action Required
Until the issue is corrected with the appropriate patch update, users will need to perform the workaround listed above, by removing and re-entering the condition when they receive a type mismatch error message.
