System:
SAP BO 4.1 SP3 Update
Windows 2008 R2 Std x64 Edition SP1
Universe - Single Source UNX
We upgraded from SP2 to SP3 recently and while working on the WebI report, I noticed that WebI reports with Section creates big spaces between sections and the table block. There is a setting to adjust the Top header vs actual section header space using Format Section. But in the View Mode, there will be lot of space between table blocks due to the Section boundary.
So, I read web articles and tried couple of options but in vain. But the following work around helped me to overcome this issue !!
I tried to create it from a new 'Add report' in the same WebI report, so that I can reuse my earlier tables/cross tabs etc.
1. At the bottom of the WebI report Right click the tab -> Add report -> In the new sheet go to Report Elements -> Section -> Insert Section and select the object from the UNX.
2. A new section is created.
3. Now check whether you can adjust the section size manually. If yes, then copy the Header content / table blocks from the problematic tab to this new tab;
4. You can use the newly created report for other tabs.
The above steps are work around ONLY.
For me it looks like a SAP Product bug. If anyone else had similar issue please post your comments !!
Thanks,
