Dear Experts
We developed an universe with snow flag structure and created reports on top of it.
We use same server for all tests (say X) but created different schema (DEV/TEST/ACC) to load data and test them.
Only production points to different server (say Y). Also we have different environments for Business Objects server.
On every state, both developed reports and universe (modified if any) is moved to different environment.
There was no issues, all needed columns show data when test under all circumstances in development/test/acceptance. Also, tests were carried out to check if modifications were made to developed reports by adding or removing objects to the reports.
After moving to production (Webi reports), the reports seem to work as excepted but when user tries to modify by adding new objects (dimension/measure), query we receive an error shown below,
ORA-00904: <table name>.<column name>: invalid identifier (WIS 10901)
On checking custom SQL query, it is shown that they refer to old development schema DEV (say each object refer to DEV.customer_id) which is not going to be available in production. Also, it happens only to one specific report which has context (say customer context). I tried creating the report from scratch, checked on all owner definitions in universe design but nothing helped. Also, note that there is no derived tables used in universe.
Also checked below link but solution was suggested for BO XI 3.1 whereas here we have BO 4.0 SP6
Ora-00904 invalid identifier error
Tools Used:
- SAP Business Objects 4.0 SP6 Patch 6.6 (14.0.7.1147 - IDT)
- Oracle 11g database (back-end)
- Informatica 9 ETL
Also checked production connection/universe if they still point to invalid server but all were good.
Can anyone, please guide me where it could have gone wrong.
