2 Queries within 1 workbook in BEx BI7.0

Hi Experts,
I know that there is a new method of creating a workbooks in BI7.0 using the Design Mode.
Suppose I have put 2 queries within 1 sheet in excel (one on top of the other). I did this by inserting 2 analysis grids within the same worksheet.
When I try to drill down the query on top, the area it occupies expands and completely overwrites the query at the bottom. As such, the bottom query disappears.
Is there a setting somewhere which will make the system adjust the position of the query at the bottom in this scenario?
I remember that with 3.x, when you insert 2 queries within the same worksheet in the workbook and you try to do a drilldown, the system would ask if you want it to overwrite or adjust the affected query area.
I am trying to look for the same functionality in BI7.0 workbook creation.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Migration of bex 3.x queries and workbooks to Bex 7.1 queries and workbooks

Hi,
Migration of bex 3.x queries and workbooks to Bex 7.1 queries and workbooks.
For instance when you edit,open an 3.x query in 7.0 query designer it is automatically migrated.Would it be same if we open it in 7.1 query designer?Is it possible to migrate queries and workbooks without any fail or deletion or loss?
Thank you.

I will add to the already excellent suggestions made above that the migration from Bex 3.x to Bex 7.0 is VERY laborious. There are no automated tools.
All queries and workbooks must be identified (use this as an opportunity to get rid of unused objects)
Each query must be converted to BI 7 and repairs done as needed.
Each Workbook must be converted to BI 7 and repairs done as well. The "Automated" conversion tool that SAP provides (it's behind the scenes Visual Basic) presents problems with at least 50% of the workbooks, and so they have to be manually fussed with.
If you've used Visual Basic at all in your Workbooks, you'll have to change 'em all. The On Refresh event no longer exists.
And of course, test... test.. test.. and test.
And don't forget to retrain your users. The User interface is dramatically different.
Good luck ! We're 3 months in to a five month conversion project.

Refresh individual queries within a workbook in SP20 EHp1 System

Hi,
Currently we have upgraded our BI system to EHP1 pack for SP20. Now we are in BI7.01. We have found in SAP release notes for EHP1 like " in BEX 7 analyzer we will able to Refresh individual queries within a workbook:".
Can you please tell me how to acheive that, as when we are trying to do it refreshes all the sheets.
Also in Global settings tab " Allow single data provider refresh" is disabled. Kindly tell me step by step procedure to acheive this,
Thanks

Hi Krishna,
Really thanks for your instructions. We have enabled hte "refresh on individual workbooks" in the workbook settings tab adn we are able to see the same in the context menu of the analysis grid.
Again i have few doubts.
I can able to see two options as below.
1. Refresh
2. Refresh this query.
What is the difference between this two?. Also when i click the "refresh this query" it shud display the "selections screen of the particular query", But it is not at all showing me a selection screen,
What i am doing is.. I am simply doing "refresh this query" option that will refresh my screen first adn i am doing change variables.
That will give me the selection screen of the particular query. If i am not doing so, all workbooks are refreshing,
Please advice, whether selection screen of the particular query can be shown when clicking "refresh this query".
Thanks/

Bex Default template for Queries and Workbooks

Dear All,
We have a default template for all queries and workbooks.But this default template was created using a AP query and saved as a workbook.Now all the users having AR role are not able to execute queries or workbooks.Since this default template has a AP info provider associated with it.Is it possible convert this default workbook to a generic one without any security restrictions.Please provide a solution.

In Bex analyzer, you have option to convert a template into a default template.
Or you can create a copy of the existing template without AP infoproviders and assign it as default template.

Migration of queries and work books to BI7

Hi,
I would like to Migrate all the existing 3.X queries and work books to BI7.0 in Development box.
Is it possible to capture these changes into a transport request, if possible how do I capture.
Please guide.
Regards,
Sharma. IVN

Sharma,
Its better to collect all queries of a Infoprovider in a single request as u can avoid locking of dependent objects in different requests..Migrating workbooks would be tricky if u have any macros.Have a look at below links on migrating front-end objects

Embedding 2 queries within the same tab in a work-book?

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to embedd multible queries within a single tab in a Workbook?i.e. can we define a cell range in which a particular query is to be embedded and a different cell range within the same tab for another query?
Thanks
Aravind

Hi,
It is very much possible.
Just insert the 2 queries at different places and save the work book.
In the properties you can so the the result of the 2 queries do not overwrite and ouput is adjusted accordingly.

When trying to open Workbooks using BEx Browser35 the Workbooks do net get opened within BEx Analyzer, the "lInks" seem to be inactive.
The test has been conducted using SAPGUI720 with BEx35_Patch1 and Windows7/Office2010_32bit.
Does anyone know if this problem is related to the new SAPGUI-version being used or is this a known error requriring some manual configuration.
Kind regards,

How to detach/delete queries from workbooks

One of our users has a huge workbook with over 200 queries. He wanted to remove part of the queries but instead of deleting the queries he removed the excel tabpages with the queries as a result of wich the connection with the queries is still there.
Is there a way to remove the connected queries without having to remove all queries ?
Refreshing all queries is not an option.
I also tried to remove the records in table RSRWORKBOOK but this also didn't remove the connection, after opening and saving the workbook in Bex, the removed records in RSRWORKBOOK appeared in the table again.

Hi Tine.
Try to add this VB code to the WB:
<i>Sheets("SAPBEXqueries").visible = True
To make it quite invisible again, the command is:
Sheets("SAPBEXqueries").visible = xlSheetVeryHidden</i>
This makes the sheets with the information used in the workbook visible (you will find the queries in sheet 1). You can try to delete the queries from here. I don't know if it works, but just an idea.
Hope it helps.

Is there anyway to archive old queries and workbooks rather than deleting?

Our environment has thousands of old queries and workbooks. We plan to delete any object that has not been used within 13 months, but there's a concern we may someday need a few of the reports that will be deleted.
Is there a way to archive old queries and workbooks rather than deleting them?
Is there another approach to solving this matter?
Thanks!

Jim
This is really a intersting question as this is a reality as many BW reports are not used/accessed by users but still they have tendancies of sitting on these reports.
I wanted to suggest to carry-out report usabilty analys. This analysis u can carry out by using BW statistics/standerd queries/new queries in technical cubes showing usability data. If u found that a perticalar BW report is not been used for long time, u can discuss the usability of this report with the report user ( as it is a normal practice of owning BW report by user/user group across industry ), if user is no longer uses it Or do not need it any more, it will be better to delete those reports, this will free up some resources and will reduce the junk. ( if user wants these queries ask him to use it or it will better to personalise report in his desktop easing him to see those reports. )
Changing the technical names of the query as suggested by Bhanu will have follwing effects.
1. It will add more reports in repository leading to junk
2. Old queries still be assigned to user roles, so collide with user authorisation.
hope views are clear, others are welcome to add or share their experince in this regard.
kindly assign the points if it helps.

Control multiple updates and queries within one transaction in JPA

Hi,
I have a question regarding control multiple updates and queries within one transaction. We are using EclipseLink 2.3.1. With below code, will I be able to:
- have all insert, update, select queries committed in one transaction;
- queryGetBalance will return the latest OrgBalance after update;
- if one fails, everything rolls back.
Thanks!
Jeffrey
PS: I realized that I cannot use em.getTransaction().begin() and em.getTransaction().commit(), since I am using JTA.
=============
@PersistenceContext(unitName="Test")
EntityManager em;
em.setFlushMode(FlushModeType.COMMIT);
newTransaction.setAmount(1000);
newTransaction.setType("check");
em.persist(newTransaction);
orgAudit.setUpdateUser("Joe")
orgAudit.setupUpdateTime(time);
em.merge(orgAudit);
Query queryUpdateBalance = em.createQuery("update OrgBalance o set o.balance = o.balance + :amount where orgId = :myOrgId");
queryUpdateBalance.setParameter("amount", 1000);
queryUpdateBalance.setParameter("myOrgId", 1234);
Query queryGetBalance = em.createQuery("select OrgBalance o where o.orgId = :myOrgId");
queryGetBalance.setHint("javax.persistence.cache.storeMode", CacheStoreMode.REFRESH);
queryGetBalance.setHint("javax.persistence.cache.retrieveMode", CacheRetrieveMode.BYPASS);
queryGetBalance.getResultList();
em.flush();

Yes, the operation will be in a single transaction, assuming you are using a JTA managed SessionBean and the code is part of a SessionBean method.

Query to get list of queries within a specific session.

Hi all,
I want to know the query which will return me all the queries within a session. I have a query which I use quite often, but it returns the last query executed within that session.
select st.sql_text
from v$sqltext st,v$session sn where st.address=sn.sql_address and st.hash_value=sn.sql_hash_value and
sn.sid = <sid> and
sn.serial# = <serial#>
order by st.piece
Could anybody help me.
thanx,

Hi,
Thanx.
I have one more query, does oracle server keep cursors open till end of the transaction or close it immediately as soon as query is successfully executed ? If it's not closing the cursors immediately, why the following query where I am joining v$sqltext, v$session and v$open_cursor is not retruning me all the queries in one transaction. I believe, transaction is queries executed between two successive commit / rollback. The following query is returning me the same resultset as the earlier one.
select oc.sql_text from v$session sn, v$open_cursor oc where sn.sql_address = oc.ADDRESS and sn.sql_hash_value = oc.HASH_VALUE and sn.sid = 8 and sn.serial#= 22769;
Thanx,

How to open a workbook in BEx 700

Hi Friends,
Is there a way to open a workbook in BEx, just knowing its ID and name?
Workbook is not saved in a role, psooibly in favourites of a user. In 3.5 using FM RSAH_LAUNCH_EXCEL
was a way to achieve this.
Any ideas?
Regards
Joe

Hi again,
First of all thanks for answers.
Please let ne give a short explanetion of my issue:
i'm BW Admin, we are currently "moving" from 3.5 to 7.0. My problem is, that I'm missing al ot of ueseful tools, provided in 3.5.,
not longer available in 7.0, as you can see form my threads in the past. In all of the long years of working in IT, I never expeienced such a step back and a lack od conbienence intrducing a new release of any software.
However, one of my users is spending his holidays and a collegue just wants to run a workbook obviously saved
in his favourites. And I'm still searching for a possibilty for achieving this in a easy way, without changing settings in
user administration (copying favourites copying ,even etire user....).
Thanks and Regards
Joe
