Limitation and Known Issues

  • The PDF view in Reading mode has problems (which we cannot influence). Please use PDF export.
  • Differences between the Java and the HTML client : The usage is different in some cases, depending on which client is used. SAP tries to remove these differences in a new HTML client.
  • Alpha channel (transparency) for color options is currently not supported (and probably in the future). Although the alpha channel can be displayed in principle, it causes massive problems when exporting the visualizations.
  • BI Mobile: The app currently does not support WebI extensions. We therefore recommend the presentation in the app as PDF.
  • “Turn Into”: If you create a table with the “Turn Into” functionality from a chart, then the deviations will no longer react to changes.
  • If there are double quotes in a value that is chosen for a property, errors will occur and no drawing will be possible.
  • When the Need4Viz Custom Elements service is reinstalled, e.g. during BIP update, the new service has to be named identically to the old one. Otherwise, old reports will not work properly.
  • Using the Java Mode in combination with self-signed SSL certificates is possible, but it is necessary to add the certificate to the keystore used by the BOE Java Virtual Machine.
  • Text settings that contain only spaces are not passed on by Webi and thus do not work.
  • Values above 9007199254740991 (MAX_SAFE_INTEGER) are interpreted as 0.
  • When all language packs are installed with SAPBI, a latency could be observed when displaying the Custom charts catalog in Webi.
  • Navigation between charts is not activated in Fiori portal on SAPBI 4.2. Navigation is available in Fiori on SAPBI 4.3SP2.
  • Due to its older technology, Internet Explorer is not supported for our charts. We recommend Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Mozilla Firefox for the best results.
  • The full screen mode is not allowed by some Firefox versions, please use Chrome or Edge browsers if you want to display elements in full screen
