Export from Discoverer to Excel more than 65K rows

Hi
I need to export data from discoverer to excel, in some cases it is more than 65K rows, does any body know if the file can be split in multiple files o worksheets in Excel?
Any help will be appreciate
Thanks
Vladimir

The short answer is I didn't know, as in any instance where my end users have wanted to extract large amounts of data they have done it from one sheet, I expected that Discoverer would just create the extra sheets for both but I wanted to know for sure, so I did a test.
I created a Disco workbook with two worksheets in it, the first one I called Monthly and it had 119,409 rows in it, the second I called Weekly and it had 299,775.
The first time I did the export I did it by hitting the Excel icon on the toolbar, it therefore only extracted the first worksheet (Monthly), when I opened the ensuing Excel file it had two worksheets in it, one called Monthly, the other called Monthly_1 and as expected, between the two sheets the had exactly the same number of fields as in the original disco sheet.
I then redid the extract going through the menu and chossing extract entire workbook, Discoverer then re-extracted the sheets. In the Excel file this time I had the same two monthly sheets as before and this time I also had weekly sheets, five of them. So I ended up with an Excel file with seven sheets containing all of the original data.

SOS !!! Export from Discoverer to Excel problem

Hi everyone,
My reports, exported from Discoverer to Excel look quite different from what Discoverer format is. The date in Excel is shifted, column names are missing and report is broken into several tabs.
Any idea why it is happening?
Thanks lot,
Sergei

When the users I support export to Excel they like to use the Export To Excel button in the menu. After they do that, they get a window asking if they want to enable or disable macros. I have them click Enable macros to get the same format as they see in Discoverer Plus.
If you get several tabs instead of one tab(and only one exists), I usually need to resave the workbook becuase it got corrupted (in my case anyway). If you want more control over how the workbook gets exported you can go to File--> Export... and they have some options on how the workbook gets exported.
I hope this helps.

Requirement to display more than 65K rows of data

Has anyone addressed the issue of Excel not being able to provide more than 65K rows of data with the users? I am working with users whom are concerned about Excel not being able to provide more than 65K rows of data.
Why would you use BI reporting to report on data more than 65K rows of data. Has anyone designed any reports with more than 65K rows of data. I would imagine that BI reporting is for summarization and it is an on line analytical tool and not a data producing or recording tool.
Is there a work around if the requirement is to display more than 65K rows of data? Has anyone been asked to do this kind of reporting?

Copying data from excel(more than one row) and pasting into table control

I have a requirement to copy data from excel and have it pasted it into the corresponding fields table control when the user clicks on an icon.For the first part I used a class to copy it from the clip board.By the previous process,I get the data inside an internal table, but even after trying to split the data using 'split at cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab into table itab.' it's not working.The table and the excel file are of the same structure.
Does anyone know any cause as to why it might not work?Is there any other way to achieve my objective?

Hi Rob, I confirm, you're nitpicking! :-D For information, I've noted a few SAP comments about releasing and released objects, for people who like reading: [SAP Library - Documenting and Releasing a Function Module|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/d1/801f50454211d189710000e8322d00/frameset.htm], [Note 109533 - Use of SAP function modules|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/109533], [Note 415983 - Modification/customer developments of SAP function modules|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/415983]; Example of an unreleased BAPI -> [Note 577453 - Using BAPI BAPI_DELIVERYPROCESSING_EXEC|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/577453]

Problem opening excel files exported from Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.48.18

I can't open excel files (xls) exported from Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.48.18 when I enable macros. The application (Excel) hangs up.
Someone have any idea about this?
Thanks,
Diego

Hi Meifang
I did some more research and found a document on MetaLink 250820.1 that talks about Discoverer not being able to call Excel if Discoverer is running via an IP address instead of a qualified domain name.
The article talks about making Discoverer a trusted site in the Internet Options of IE. Here's the relevant info from the posting:
Workaround for MS IE (if necessary):
1. Open a new MS IE browser
2. Navigate to: Tools | Internet Options Security where you will see the Trusted Sites icon (green icon with a check mark)
3. Click the Sites button
4. Add the following: http://IP:port/
(where IP, port are the location of where Discoverer server is running)
5. Click the OK button
6. Click the OK button again
On my own PC, I was having a similar problem and I was unable to get Excel to launch. In the end I did this:
1. Open a new MS IE browser
2. Navigate to: Tools | Internet Options | Security where you will see the Local Intranet icon (computer icon against a globe)
3. Click the Local Intranet button
4. Click the Sites button
5. Click the Advanced button
6. Add the following: http://IP/ or http://website
(where IP or website are the location of where Discoverer server is running)
7. Click the Add button
8. Click the OK button
9. Click the OK button again
10. Click the OK button a third time
With this done, I made sure that my Explorer settings were correct by doing the following to ensure that a couple of settings for the .xls & .html file types are unchecked:
1. Open Windows Explorer
2. Navigate to: Tools | Folder Options | File Types tab
3. Highlight the Extension XLS (or HTML)
4. Click the Advanced button
5. At the botton of the screen are three settings that use checkboxes. If either of the following two are checked, un-check them:
Confirm Open after Download and Browse in same window
6. Click the OK button
7. Click the Apply button
8. Re-boot the PC
After I did this I was successfully able to get Excel to open from within Discoverer.
Best wishes
Michael

Export a BO report to excel having more than 65500 rows

Please let me know what are the different options available to export BO report having more than 65500 rows to excel 2003.

Post Author: amr_foci

i think excel will not be able to handle all that records , you can devide your report into some tabs based on a specific condition for every tab, so when you export it to excel you will get many tabs as was exist in the the Business Objects report
good luck

Not able to display more than 65k records in Bex report.

Hi Experts,
I have requirement for the Bex report to display more than 65k records..
Please help me on this.. i am feed up of get proper update for this..
Its urgent.. pls help on this

Hi,
The Excel 2007 have a limit of 1,048,576 rows, unfortunately SAP cannot export more than 65.536 rows that is an exiting limitation exporting to Excel files.
The note 700206 explains the MAX Size Limit for XXL Export, and it's
not possible to increase this limit. XXL Export is generic export
utility to export the list object from SAP to Excel and it cannot
work differently for different Excel releases.
I would emphasizes the purpose of BEx Analyzer: it is not a tool for the
mass extraction of data, but it is a viewer/navigator tool for data.
For huge exports like the one mentioned SAP offers Open Hub as a 3rd
party tool. You can have more details in the url below:

Can't insert more than 8000 rows to excel via JOB

Hello,
I have SSIS package where I have two tasks.
File System task copies file (with header names) to destination folder.
Data flow task export data from table to copied Excel file. Select are simple "select * from table" without any filters.
There are about 100 000 rows in the table.
When I run this task through Visual studio everything works fine. Data to Excel file is exported.
When I run this package in JOB (Job Activity Monitor) the file is created but 0 rows is exported.
One interesting thing, that when I use select "select top 7000 * from table" 7000 rows is inserted but when I try to export more than 8000 rows then 0 rows is exported. The JOB generates 0 errors. In fact he tries to export. Because all the time
Excel's file "Date modified" is changing.
It seems like data is exported but the final "commit" isn't done. Anybody knows where could be a problem?

Out of curiosity I have had a go at reading 70K lines of data from a table in a sql server and exporting them to an excel 2007 file:
SSIS 2012 project deployment
2 project connections: sql database connection for source
and an Excel 2007 connection for destination:
Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=F:\Data\Outbox\ExcelOut.xlsx;Extended Properties="Excel 12.0 XML;HDR=YES";
I have an empty excel 2007 file as template with header rows in the first sheet.
I test the project in VS 2012, ran without problems.
I set DelayValidation to true on package level, data flow level.
In data flow, excel distination, ValidataExternal metadata to False.
I deploy the project with the package to an Integration Services catalog on a SQL 2012 server (not my development machine)
I copy an empty excel 2007 file (with the headers in the first row) in the correct file location.
I execute the package from SSMS in the Integration services catalogs, with 32 bit checked.
The package runs without errors.
I can open the excel file and see 70K records.
Last thought: I have no NULL values in my data. Do you have null values after the first 7000 records? Or is one of the excel columns expecting numerical data where it suddenly finds alfanumeric after 7000 rows?
Another suggestion: if you run the package with SSMS from the catalog, you can set the verbose reporting mode on, does that tell you anything more?

Open more than 65k TCP/IP connections

Hello,
is it any possibility to open more than 65535 TCP/IP connections from one IP address as client? Because each connection occupied one port, I can't make more than 65k. Can be established more outgoing connections (as client) from one port to more different servers simultaneously? Thank you for any advice.
Ceny

The naive way will only let you open about 32K sockets before it fails.
In order to get more you need to reuse the socketnumbers:
#include <sys/socket.h>
void BindSockToPort(int fd, int port) {
 sockaddr_in sa= {AF_INET, port, INADDR_ANY};
 unsigned int one= 1;
 setsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, &one, sizeof one);
 if(bind(fd, (sockaddr*) &sa, sizeof sa)) perror("bind");
}Then you can connect.
From same port you must of course connect to different endpoints.
And this has of course nothing to do with sun studio C++. But I had just solved the problem myselfes, so...

Export from ALV to Excel - problem with numeric values

hi folks,
when exporting from alv to excel and we have negative values (and using an u.s.a. setting where . and , are different to r/3) negetive values are not shown correctly in excel.
when changing in win nt the regional settings to europe one's (e.g. germany) everything works fine.
any hints welcome,
kind regards
oliver

I guess this has something to do with the excel settings. In the control panel you have regional settings.try some options there. It might work.

OBIEE Report Export from Dashboard to Excel doesn't suppress the columns as

OBIEE Report Export from Dashboard to Excel doesn't suppress the columns as expected even after the properties are set to Suppress in the report. In Dashboard it is suppressed Properly but in the excel export it is not suppressed and values for the columns are repeated.
Added the following to the instanceconfig :
<Download>
<Export xsi:type="excel">
<DataValue>UseFormattedValue</DataValue>
<RepeatRows>false</RepeatRows>
</Export>
</Download>
But then could not restart services.The following error occured :

Problem solved!!
 
See this part of the query:
 
if :P15_GESTOR_PROPIETARI='-3' then 
w:= w||' AND (("STASVWREPORT_TASQUES"."GES_GES_ID"=:GESTOR '; 
w:= w||'OR "STASVWREPORT_TASQUES"."GES_GES_ID_ESTA_ASSIGNADA"=:GESTOR)';

end if; 
 
when instead of :P15_CANVI_DE_CLUB I put a value (say ''EE'') it works correctly, finally I created an application item (ASSOCIAT) and when when I change :P15_CANVI_DE_CLUB I set :ASSOCIAT to the same value and the query is based on this application item:
 
if :P15_GESTOR_PROPIETARI='-3' then

First one is from a inquiry form, when this page is called it works fine. when there are more than 10 rows, first 10 are shown on page render and when we click on Next link, other rows are shown. This is becuase I have given the records displayed property on adavanced table = 10. I'm fine till here.
Second one is I'm calling this page again from a workflow notificaiton. There is a link called view more details on the workflow notification , click of this link will open the page with 10 records displayed. But when user tries to click on Next it doesn't work. It just doesn't refresh.
Its very wierd,. not able to understand what could be wrong when calling from wf notificiton. Its the same page and conroller code used in both the places.
Please help me!!
Thanks
Sunny

Thanks for your response Kristofer. You are correct, there was a difference in the parameters and the issue is resolved now.
