Disable Query Builder Tool access to end users

Hi,
Did any of you block the Query Builder Tool access to your end users?
In our Netweaver 2004s BI implementation, we have a special need to restric the access to Query Builder Tool. Mostly our users are using BEx Analyzer tool (Front end service pack- SP12). Any ideas in this regards would be highly appreciated? Of course I can restrict access on the back end that our end user is only able to read the Query. What I am looking what is, how to stop the user even from launching Query Builder tool?
Thanks
Jay Lakshmanan

Hi Altera,
If the role doesnt give access to transaction RRMX and if none of the Reporting Auth Objects (S_RS_COMP, S_RS_COMP1, S_RS_FOLD)  exists, than the user will not have access to Query Builder.
Hope it helps.
Please award points if it is useful.
Thanks & Regards,
Santosh

  • Query Builder access for end users

    Hi,
    I have a group of users who would like to have 'Query Builder' access.
    Is it possible to directly access query builder without actually login-in into application builder.

    No, but you could build a form to mimic it... Check out this thread from a few days ago: Query Builder functionality

  • What is the tool to be accessed by End user in version 7

    Hi all,
    Could any body give a good ppt or explanation about the way the end users can access the BW Queries in version 7.
    Priror to version 7 we used to give access to Browser to the end users . Now what are the different options with EP and with out EP for that.
    With rgds,
    Anil Kumar Sharma .P

    hi Anil,
    in version 7, Portal is a must to run web templates, and the new bex tools WAD, query designer, report designer, bex web analyzer all will need Portal (and Java usage type), you can still use old 3.x bex tools and have the 3.x webtemplates run on bw's WAS.

    Hi CDA
    You're not understanding the way Discoverer works. The lowest level of security control that can be applied inside Discoverer is at the business area level. Thus if a user has access to any part of a business area then they have access to the whole business area. This is done by your administrator using TOOLS | SECURITY from the Administration menu bar.
    The privileges that can be set using TOOLS | PRIVILEGES control what a user can do with the data that they have access to (remember that access itself is at the business area). Thus if a user has the Create / Edit workbook privilege and they have access to two business areas then they have that privilege for both business areas and create or edit workbooks to their heart's content in both of them.
    Further, and I think this is where you may be getting confused, you have to understand that an end user cannot grant the privilege for another end user to have access to their business area simply by sharing a workbook. The act of sharing a workbook does not share the access rights. In order for one user, aka the Registrar, to be able to run a workbook that was created by another user, aka the HR director), the Registrar must already have been granted access to the HR business areas by the Discoverer administrator. If a user does not have access to a business area but does have access to a workbook from that business area then they will not be able to execute the workbook.
    It therefore sounds like you do not have security under control.
    Best wishes
    Michael
    BTW: Are you using the SunGard Banner system by any chance, and are you using the ODS? If this is the case, you may be interested in knowing that my company has partnered with SunGard Higher Education to bring Discoverer training and consulting to their customers.

  • BI Webtemplate access to End user.

    Dear All,
    My BI team asked me the answer for this scenario. They have to give the webtemplate (created/executed by BI) URL to end user access. Please advise me what are all the access need for end user. What kind of the access we have to give to the end user and tell me about configuration part of the BASIS consultant.
    Thanks for your help.

    You should always state the Apex version. And this case, because this is related to authentication, the Authentication scheme you are using.
    Assuming that you are using the Apex Built-in Auth scheme, you can achieve this by using User Groups feature and the APEX_UTIL.CURRENT_USER_IN_GROUP API.
    Here are the high level steps:
    a. Apex Builder > Administration > Manage Users and Groups
    b. Create 2 users UAT1 and UAT2
    c. Create 2 Groups UAT1Group and UAT2 Group
    d. Assign UAT1 user to UAT1Group and UAT2 to UAT2Group
    e. On the Home page of both the applications create a "Before Page Header" Branch that goes back to the Login Page. Make this branch conditional.This does not work, because in APEX you can go into any page after login bypassing the home page (like this http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=46417:9 where 9 is not home page)
    So this branch will not run.
    f. In "A" application you want only UAT1 to access , so use PL/SQL Expression type of condition in the above created branch that has the following code
    return NOT APEX_UTIL.CURRENT_USER_IN_GROUP('UAT1Group')So the user UAT1 will return False and the branch will not execute, but for others it will return True and send the user to Login page, which is access denied.
    Similarly, make the branch in B application condition for UAT2Group.

  • Query for turn-over to end-users

    Hi Friends,
    I have create a query called "query1.sql" which print monthly summary report to excel/csv.
    Can I automate this query for turn-over to user/operator, so that the user will just invoke run-time program only to produce the desired output? or maybe create a menu or something to make the query run?
    Thanks a lot,
    Ms K

    Not in the current releases. You can vote for the existing requests for automation/command line at the SQL Developer Exchange, to add weight for possible future implementation.
    And yes, I suppose you could create a User Defined Java Extension to automate through a menu option or something.
    Have fun,
    Mr. K.

  • Restrict access to Query Builder component in SQL Workshop

    Hello folks,
    Can someone tell me if it is possible for an end-user to have access to the Query Builder component only?
    End-users on our site are currently using the stand alone version of the old Query Builder (OBE60.EXE), which is not supported any longer, and have compatibility issues when used against a 10g database.
    I'm looking for an alternative (query-only) tool, and came across the Query Builder component in Oracle Application Express. But couldn't find anything there that would allow me to limit access to this component for an end-user.
    Please let me know if this can be achieved, and if not, is anyone aware of an equivalent tool that would do the job?
    Many Thanks,
    Praveen

    Hello,
    No, that functionality does not exist currently, you would need to build your own.
    If you search this forum there are a few threads which detail how you can install the Application Builder and SQL Workshop applications into the APEX environment itself so you can see how they (meaning the Oracle team) have built those apps.
    Hope this helps,
    John.

  • END USER accessing only the Output of report

    Hi,
    I'm creating reports based on queries, right now we are planning to give view access to end users, but my doubt if end user hits view on the report the query runs everytime and produces the report, what I want to achieve is that the we schedule the report before night and end user will only view the PDF output the query produces by the scheduling, How can I achieve this?

    So do we need to give the user access to schedule button as well? and Do you mean run report online option?
    Any update please?

  • Is this really an end user tool?

    The documentation that I've read so far describes Discoverer as a reporting and ad/hoc query tool for the end users. True? Is this product usually rolled out to the end users? Is there minimal or substantial training involved?
    Thanks!

    We are using it as such. We've found that users find the tool itself easy to grasp. The harder part is understanding the data and how it's organized. Turning users loose on a relational database was a nightmare. Now that we have a much simplified data warehouse available it works much better, since they can more easily find what they need.

  • NetApp Synergy - Denying End Users essential tools

    Hi,We have been for many "long" years, a trusted customer and consumer of NetApp Products and one thing that has ALWAYS lacked in terms of support and tools is a good sizing tool.I have known for a longtime the existence of NetApp Synergy which has within it's tool set an extremely useful sizing tool for Aggr/RG/Vol etc.I have never understood why NetApp has restricted access to this tool, even though it's publicly available for download.This tool or a cut down version has been called for for a long time by users of these communities and across the public domain.Our Millions spent on NetApp kit and services, aught to be recognized through making available this tool so we can size our filers efficiently and effectively. I realize that perhaps NetApp may not wish to for their tool to be available to competitors, but most of their competitors make these types of tools available to end users.My question after my rant is, when are NetApp going to do this - Give us the tool so we can size correctly and more specifically, manage, maintain and protect the investment in our systems.RegardsArthursc0

    As the Product Manager for NetApp Synergy, I wanted to let you know I read your blog and took great interest in it.  Many of us would agree that we should have a bigger scope for the audience.  It is simply going to take a long time to get there.  We are working full speed on a number of initiatives.  The two big ones are C-Mode support and the second is Collaboration.  Collaboration brings with it a bunch of requisites that 'could' potentially allow us to re-examine our scope.

  • Multiple schemas in query builder

    Hi,
    I have seen variations of this question returning a couple of times in the forum, but no answer has come forward so far. So let's try again...
    In APEX 4.1 (maybe also in earlier versions) there is a drop-down at the top-right of the query-builder tool to select a different schema.
    The problem is, that it only shows the "parsing" schema. So the user the workspace is associated with.
    I have taken all of the following steps, that i would expect to make the other schemas show up:
    - associate my second scheme, SCHEMA_2, to the workspace SPACE_1
    - grant the "parsing" schema, SCHEMA_1, select access to all objects in SCHEMA_2
    And I have tested the following things:
    - in "SQL Commands" run a query that selects objects from SCHEMA_2, using "select * from SCHEMA_2.TEST_TABLE;". This works
    - in query builder, select the "SQL" option and insert the same query and click "run". Results in "Please enter a valid query to see results"
    - create an application with a "SQL report" page, and insert the same query. Results in "Query cannot be parsed, please check the syntax of your query. (ORA-00942: table or view does not exist)"
    My toughts on this issue:
    - A different user is used in query builder and the application builder?
    - the "SQL commands" uses the "parsing" schema, as expected
    So, what's wrong?

    Is using more then one schema in the query builder such an uncommon requirement?
    Or did this message pass by unnoticed?

  • Query Builder - sort order causing ORA-00979 error

    Hello,
    I'm having an issue with the "sort order" clause in the query builder tool when using a function on the same column.
    I've build a simple query in the gui and the following statement is displayed in the SQL Window
    select     "DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS"."ORDER_ID" as "ORDER_ID",
         sum(DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS.QUANTITY) as "QUANTITY"
    from     "DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS" "DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS"
    group by DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS.ORDER_ID
    and if I add a sort order of "1" on the quantity field, the following query is changed to
    select     "DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS"."ORDER_ID" as "ORDER_ID",
         sum(DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS.QUANTITY) as "QUANTITY"
    from     "DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS" "DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS"
    group by DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS.ORDER_ID
    order by DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS.QUANTITY DESC
    When running this query I get an error
    failed to parse SQL query:
    ORA-00979: not a GROUP BY expression
    It is quite obvious what is wrong with the query but I don't know how to get the query builder tool to generate the correct statement. The order by clause should be order by sum(DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS.QUANTITY) DESC.
    I've tried to do some searching and haven't found much documentation on this issue. Any assistance is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tony

    While this statement is generally certainly true and should also be remembered, it is not really helpful for the specific case.
    I think the behaviour described is a bug. However this might be one a little difficult to solve. The user unfortunatly can't influence much of the query builder results directly.
    Either put 1 into the order by clause or use the column alias name without table alias name ("QUANTITY" only).
    My personal solution would be NOT TO use any sort criteia in the query builder. This makes sense in so far as the generated SQL is often basis for some report. If that is an interactive report you won't add a sort order anyway. This is a layout thing and layout will be handled by the end user itself. he can choose whatever sorting he wants.

  • Query Builder Page Source

    I need to build a Query Builder tool into my app for end users. I wanted to look at the page source of the Query Builder tool built into APEX. Looking at the URL below I can see that it is calling application: 4500 page: 1002
    ref="f?p=4500:1002:1230793305485584::NO:1002::" title="Query Builder"
    Is there any way for me to bring this page up in the builder or does someone have a similar app already built?
    Thanks,
    Bob

    You can install into your own workspace any of the applications we ship. They're in the builder directory. Just change the application alias in the file before you do. You'll then be able to see the application in your Builder. You won't be able to run it, of course.
