It has been a long-lasting but little-challenge project. 7 months’ work, of which only the last 5 weeks really make sense – all complex cubes & queries, bo reports and dashboard are created then.
Today I check how to get data in the flow of BW – Universe – WebI – BI WS – Xcelsius. I scheduled the webi to run with different parameters, but data in the dashboard just won’t change – it always gets data from the initial webi, not the instance.
Problem solved when I saw property “getFromLatestDocumentInstance” under InputValues in Data Manager, and set it to 1.
And the rest input parameters may also be useful when you don’t notice – refresh, getFromUserInstance. And also the output metadata like lastrefreshdate, scheduleStartTime, scheduleEndTime, nbColumns and nbLines.
