The basics of SAP BusinessObject Intelligence Platform Publication are explained in my earlier blog. One aspect that is often misunderstood is the different bursting modes that publication offer as part of the Advanced settings. Each bursting mode has its advantages and disadvantages. Here is an overview of the three bursting modes that are available.
Please note that Webi publication with dynamic recipient only supports “One database fetch for all recipients” bursting mode. CR supports all bursting modes for dynamic recipients.
When choosing the busting mode keep your personalization scenario in mind. For example if all recipients are getting the same data (minimal personalization) then use one fetch for all recipients, however if you have a personalized data for each recipient then One database fetch per recipient may be your best option.
Also keep in mind that the more personalization you have, the more artifacts (personalized reports) are created on the system. You may want to ensure that these are cleaned up at some point either by instance clean up or if you’re distributing to external destination then you could deselect the “Default destination” which cleans up the publication artifacts on the BOE system.
If you’re running “One database fetch per recipient” and you have many recipients then ensure that you have sufficient CR or WebI scheduling resources as publication spins of a CR/WebI scheduling job for each recipient.
