Last Updated 5 years ago
Symptom
- Need4Viz chart is not rendered in Web Intelligence documents. Instead of it, a message like the following is displayed :
Reason and Prerequisites
Environment:
- SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform : all versions
- Need4Viz : all versions
Steps To Reproduce:
- In a Webi report, configure a new Need4Viz chart (I.E. Gantt Project Management chart)
- Select 7 dimensions and 1 measures as input
- Validate the chart
- The message is displayed instead of the chart
Cause:
- The number of requested parameters is not correct.
Solution
To render correctly, each Need4Viz chart needs a specific minimum of dimensions, measures [optional] and regions [optional].
Read carefully the alert message, it indicates the missing elements by a red tick (the correct number of needed elements is flagged by a green tick).
In the screenshot above, 8 dimensions are needed to render the Gantt Project Management chart. Only 7 have been set. Add the correct 8 inputs and the chart should be correctly rendered.
