I need to display a WebFocus report on the home page after a user log's in to WebFocus.

A customized report will show for their department. Then the user should be able to choose among other reports or choose a different menu system.

Please direct me to documentation or other posts.

Thanks.

On your logon form, add another hidden input tag:

<input type=hidden name="WF_SIGNON_MESSAGE" value="/ibi_apps/WFServlet?&IBIF_ex=ANOTHER">

This directs WF where to go upon a successful logon.

BTW, change "ANOTHER" to the report to execute.

Are you using B.I. Dashboard?

No, we are not using the BI dashboard.

Is it included in the base product?

Do you recommend it? Why? Is there an example or demo to view?

Thanks.

From searching our production directories for the string WFSERVLET, it seems to me that we have never implemented this approach to executing Focexecs.

I may be getting nearer to my solution, but I still need some help.

This is my web page (with the .. added):

<..html>
<..head>
</..head>
<..body>
<..form method="post" action="/cgi-bin/ibi_cgi/ibiweb.exe" >
Go baby go!
<input type="hidden" name="WF_SIGNON_MESSAGE" VALUE="/ibi_apps/WFSERVLET?&IBIF_ex=CombofimLB">
<input name ="go" type="submit">

</..form>
</..body>
</..html>

and this is the error message I receive:

WebFOCUS was called with an invalid request.

What is incorrect?

In <input type="hidden" name="WF_SIGNON_MESSAGE" VALUE="/ibi_apps/WFSERVLET?&IBIF_ex=CombofimLB">

VALUE=CombofimLB"

Hey guys,

I know this is an old topic, but it is something I need to implement now. I cannot seem to find logon form to insert the input tag in. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,


Kevin

The URL for the default WebFOCUS Reporting Server login page is:
http://server-name/ibi_html/wfsignon.html
This file is located in 
Drive:\ibi\WebFOCUS76\ibi_html.

Hmm...this is not exactly what I am looking for.

Do anyone know, is there a way that I can put a custom message on the login page for each GroupView?

This is the URL we direct users to for one of the GroupViews.

http://[servername]/ibi_apps/b...IFY&WORP_MPV=af_gbv&


I would like to put a message containing a security warning before the users log in.

Thanks,


Kevin

The location below is the location and filename for the GroupView Login page.

You can add anything you need by placing either HTML or JavaScript in this file. It can be a pain because of the formatting so it might take some time to get it to look just right.

"\ibi\WebFOCUSxx\webapps\webfocusxx\worp\jsp\WORP_Login.jsp"

Perfect! That's exactly what I was looking for. And I was able to just put in a simple HTML statement at the bottom (taken from an HTML launch page header) and the format of it looked fine.

Thank you for your help.
