BEx Analyzer comments in ABAP Runtime?!

Hallo, we are using BEx 7.3 in ABAP Runtime (only ABAP Stack). In BEx Analyzer we want to use comments functionality to upload a Word or Excel Document for comments, but the Document Browser we are getting is of BEx 3.x which doen't provide the Button to uplaod the Word/Excel Documents. According to SAP in ABAP Runtime there is no way to upload Word/Excel Documents through BEx Analyzer comments functionality. Ist there any work arround?? Can any body hepl on this issue?
Many thanks in advance,
Regards
Mansoor

Hallo Anass,
thanks for your reply but the Link to SAP-Library shows the document about the Documents Browser in Portal, JAVA Runtime. But we don't have JAVA / Portal environment, we have only ABAP Stack.
The T-Code does not help, cause the BEx Analyzer version we are using is BEx 7.3. It is only the Document Browser which is of 3.x version, because according to SAP Helpline the BEx Analyzer in ABAP Runtime works only with 3.x Document Browser.
Does anybody know a work around to upload the Word documents?
Any how many thanks.

BEx analyzer don't work move columns in report (like drill down)

Hi
    I have an issue on BEx Analyzer...    When I built one report... add some characteristics and soo on... but then I need to move the order of columns... then I try to drill down.. or move to order of column... It doesn´t work,
    I did this function before.. when the poin of the mouse it's convert with other draw... like -->
                                           <--
    But this time it's not possible...
    Then If I press the icon that say design mode... I saw that the option of navigation is active... and when I close the design mode... the functionality of move columns work...:(
    It's difficult that each time that the user need to move columns in Bex will go to design mode... just for activate..
    I know thta we have some function on context menu.. for move columns one by other... but not for certain position..
    Could you help me please?
    I will appreciate your help and I will assign points for your answers.
Alice

Hi Alice,,
This happens some time, when i am unable to drill down by just dragging and dropping the columns. though i could not find out why. Best thing, what i do, i refresh the query and next time it works Ok.. and other th ing what you can do, right click, on the characteristics list on the left pane, go to "change drilldown", then " drill down by" there the user can select the option he is looking in for.
Hope this helps.

BI 7.0 Bex Analyzer Workbook - Convert to formula function features

Hello,
when using the convert to formula function in a BI 7.0 Bex Analyzer Workbook (WB) the result area becomes completely static.
1.) Is there a possibility to add drill downs / across into an already converted to formula WB?
2.) I inserted drop down boxes to allow F4 like selections, however those are pointless if several characteristics are being used i.e. the keyfigure results get blanked out. Is there another way to do this at all?
3.) Could someone provide me with a real live example / whitepaper how the convert to formula function can be used?
Many thanks for any feedback on this.
Regards
Christian

It does become static and all the workbook gets all the excel property.
The key figures are now calulated on the basis of your data provider from the server as a formula in each cell..
I had used to populate my key figure only for the required values of a characteristic.

BEx analyzer variable screen Copy and paste the input values functionality

Hi all,
in bw 3.5 we have functionality on the variable screen we can do directly copy the values and paste in the input screen. But in BI 7.0 BEx analyzer I am not able to find it. Is it required to apply any patches?
Please guide me on this.
Thanks

Hello All,
We have a similar issue only in 2004s query designer when we execute a query via the web. We have the variable set up to accept multiple single values and we can pick multiple single values and add them, however, we cannot paste a list of, for example, personnel numbers from an excel spreadsheet into the web selection box to add multiple single values at one time. Does this functionality exist?

BEx Analyzer workbook working strangely with reset_area functionality

Hi Experts,
In my BEx Analyzer I have got an input ready query for planning. It displays data correctly. In my workbook I have a button for variables, a button to save the data to planned cube and a button for reset. For the reset button i have used the function reset_area.
Problem - Reset button works clears the analysis grid with data. But once the data is saved reset button will not work. We have to click on the variables button to reset the grid. So again the variables screen will pop up. As a result the end user is confused. Is there a unique behavior for BEx Analyzer. User found that reset button is not working after saving a result.
Is there any workaround for this. Please clarify on the issue.
Thanks and Regards,
Jerry

Hello Jerry,
Functionality of reset will work only before Save ,once data is been saved no reset operations can be performed.
After Save only refresh is performed which can fetch you the data been saved .You can educate users that reset can be done only until save the data once data is been saved they can't system can't erase it completely however they can change key figure values.
Can refer to link below:-

Cell definition in Query Design within Bex Analyzer

Hello,
I would like to use special cell definition to visualizing the difference row definition between 2 columns (last year and actual year). With "Cell Definition" function in Query Design within Bex Analyzer there's a option to select a new restricted key figure for a related cell. But as a result I just can see a star (*) against a result number in that field. Do you have an idea, how can I solve this problem?
Thanks and Regards,
Nuran

Hi again Dirk,
there's not a unit problem. We use 2 different restricted key figure definition for a same row. The first restricted (or can be decribed as calculated key figure) key figure must be used in the first column to represent the value of the last year. And at the same row with usage of same text (for example: cost of goods sold)the second restricted key figure should be used to show the value of actual year (B2:costs in euro). The problem is the key figure definitions are totaly different; they're using different account groups etc. Cause of, I wanted to use cell definition function. In the first value field (B1) should be shown first key figure but I just get star (*) and a wrong value in the formula field of excel (between the toolbars and the result area).
Thanks for your reply.

Changing scaling factor for each cell in Bex Analyzer

Hi,
We have a query with 2 structure (1 structure in rows, 1 in columns). We execute the query with Bex Analyzer in Excel.
We would like to change the scaling factor for each cell. If we use the function 'Properties' for the active cell (context menu), we can change the scaling factor only for one cell.
Is it possible to change it for the complete table?
We use BI 7.0, patch 14.
Thanks,
Peter

BEx Analyzer: User ID based performance issue

Hello Ladies and Gents,
<b>The issue:</b>
My BW team just upgraded our system to 2004s and we are experiencing an odd userid based performance issue. If we run a query from the BEx Analyzer with user ID 'A' it takes about 3min for the variable selection screen to appear. If I log into the same machine user ID 'A' was using on my user ID B the query variable selection screen appears within seconds. What could possibly cause this?
<b>What we know so far:</b>
1. Investigated the security roles, seems like that is not the issue.
2. It is PC client independent. Two different user IDs(A and B) on the same machine running the same query in the same way (clicking through the BEx browser) produces different response times for the appearance of the variable selection screen.
Points will be rewarded and help will be greatly appreciated!

User specific personalization is retrieved before displaying the input variables. That might be a possibility, but hard to see it making such a difference. Do you always try the sequence of User A, then User B, or have you confirmed that when you start with User B, it is quick, and tehn slow whne trying User A?
Probably the best approach is to activate Trace and then logon with User A, turn trace off and print or save, then do the same thing for User B and compare. The trace will show you all the various SQL stmts and such that run as part of your trying to launch the query.
Please post back anything you learn.
Some info on Personalization for the Help pages.
Personalization in BEx
Use
This function allows users to fill variables with user-specific values, to save user-specific accesses to BI objects for the history view in the BEx Open dialog box, and to save user-specific start views for Web applications.
Integration
The personalized data is stored in different DataStore objects, according to the personalization area.
·        User-specific variable values are stored in the DataStore object 0Pers_VAR.
·        Personalized data for the history view is stored in the DataStore object 0Pers_BOD.
·        Personalized start views for the Web application are stored in the DataStore object 0Pers_WTE.

BEx Analyzer: Use Of Variable Values For Planning Sequence

Hi experts,
I want to start a planning sequence using a button item in a BEx Analyzer workbook. The planning sequence itself is defined with several variables, that are input ready. The same variables are used in BEx Queries that are bound to DataProviders in the workbook. Therefore the variables are filled by the user, if the workbook has been started. If the user wants to start the planning sequence, that is defined on the button item, the same variable values (which the user has already set in the beginning) should be used. But I didn't find a way to fill planning sequence variable from variables (like it is possible in the web interface using the DataBinding function). It seems, that it is only possible to set the variable with static values, that are defined in the button item. Am I erring in this point?
Anyone here who can help me regarding this issue?

Eitan Ohayon wrote:
Why did you raise this question?,did you face any problem?
Hi Eitan,
The problem was, that the planning sequence worked fine in web but not in analyzer. The system told me in web, that several records had been read, created, changed and deleted. System messages in BEx Analyzer always indicated zero reads, creations, reads and deletions.
Using your idea to set breakpoint in the INIT_EXECUTION method gave me the information, that all variables are not set or set with initial values (like '0000' for fiscal year). This seems to be the reason for my problem. Now I've reduced the planning sequence definition on the button only to that variables, that are really needed. Furthermore I defined the Command Range to get dynamic values for the variables from the excel sheet grid. So it seems to work.
Thank you for your help!

Here is a solution for BEX analyzer NW04S layout - setFilterStyle

Hi all,
I had a problem with a workbook that contains multiple sheet with differebts queries.
The problem was, that the filter panel had the same style on each sheet. And like the number of charactéristics are different for each quey, the layout was not well.

Hello,
You can set the default workbook as the SAP standard provided.
To do this, please open the BExAnalyzer and goto the
"Global settings" screen (Its on the BExAnalysis Toolbox menubar).
In the "Select Default workbook" tab click on the "Use SAP Standard"
button.
This would set the default workbook. Close Analyzer and reopen it.
It should work fine.
Some additional information for you:
The default workbook that is used can be seen in table RSRWBTEMPLATE.
Check the workbook that is assigned to your user. If there is a blank
workbook assigned to your user, this uses the SAP Standard Global
Wokrbook. If your user iD doesn't exist in this table, then it will use
the workbook assigned to the <blank> user id. If the <blank> user id is
assigned to <blank> workbook, this means that any user id that doesn't
have an entry in this table will be use the global workbook. Don't make
any manual updates to this table, but it can be used to see who is
assigned to what workbook. You should specify using the standard workbook
for your user id through the properties in the BEx Analyzer. Ensure that
the entry is updated in this table. Also, you will need to close BEx
Analyzer and log back on to see the change.

Manjunath

Charts in BEx Analyzer - What are the Options in Excel 2007?

Hi Gurus!
The client wants to generate Tables and Charts in BEx Analyzer and e-mail to users.
We are using BEx 3.5 queries with on BW 7.0 and Excel 2007.
We are not allowed to convert to 7.0 queries, but can convert Workbooks from 3.5 to 7.0 , leaving the embedded query as 3.5.
Basically, We'd like to run one query and set of selections and use various subsets of the data to generate five charts.
End user would not accept entering five sets of selections into five charts.
Do we have an option for using 3.5 query and 3.5 or 7.0 Workbook functionality to control the output of the chart?
( I have used Charts in BEx Web and WAD, but not the Excel front end.)
We could output the table in use Excel functionality to generate the graphs, but is there a better way?
Thanks,
John Hawk

The BEx 3.5 query in 7.0 works quite well. The Design icon Add-In features seem to work fime.
An Excel chart can easily be created from the data output, and the chart is refreshed as the data is refreshed.

Prevent BeX Analyzer from stealing focus while executing several queries

Hi all,
we have a vba program that runs several 3.5 queries in Excel (SAPBEXrefresh)
Does anyone knows a solution to prevent BeX Analyzer from stealing the focus each time a new query starts or completes.

I too am trying to find solution to this very same problem.
I created a Excel VBA program to batch process BEx reports, which works great, but the users are finding that they can't work on anything else while the process runs, as BEx always returns the focus to the Excel window as each BEx report run is completed!
In our googling, we ran across the following thread, which I've found so far to have the most detailed discussion of this problem:
http://sap.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/sap-bw/sapbex-takes-focus-1188178?cv=expanded
Unfortunately, no final resolution was provided there, and the thread is over 2 years old, and it looks like the poster who was closing in on the solution hasn't logged in to that particular forum in 2 years as well.
But why don't you take a look at the link anyway, as it may give you some ideas. I will also continue to use that poster's ideas to try to work out a solution, and if I come across one, I will certainly share it with you.
