Passing Date parameters from Siebel Workflow to BIP Reports.
We are upgrading complex Siebel 7.5 Actuate reports to Siebel BIP.
Challenge here is that Siebel 7.5 Actuate reports are scheduled by batch invoking Siebel Workflows. These Siebel Workflows set some parameters like Start Date and End Date based on the business services. The business Service has the Date logic which is returned to Siebel Work flow. Then Siebel Workflow pass these parameters to Actuate reports.
We need to achieve the same functionality in Siebel BIP reports. I know there is Oracle support document Siebel BI Publisher 8 Reports Business Service [ID 823360.1] to invoke BIP reports using Siebel Workflow.
But challenge here is how to pass these dates parameters to BIP and generate BIP reports only within those dates.
