  • How to disable Wizard in Ad-hoc Query Designer

    Hi everybody,
    I am using the Bex Ad-hoc Query Designer in a web application. The users should be able to define their own queries, but just for one info provider. I selected the info provider in the properties of the ad-hoc query designer in the web template.
    Now the users are able to create queries for all info providers with the wizard.
    Is it possible to disable the wizard or to disable all buttons at the top of the ad-hoc query designer.
    Thanks in advance,
    Joerg

    This can be done using the security for the Infoprovider,  provide the users access to create queries only for that Infoprovider.

  • Ad hoc Query Designer

    Hi,
    In which scenarios we use Ad hoc Query Desinger..can you give me an example....I know there are few restrictions when compared to Query designer.....

    hi,
    Ad-Hoc Query designer
    Creating a query with the Ad-Hoc query designer is much on the same lines as creating a query with the Bex Query Deisgner. You need to choose the chars and key figures and place them in rows, columns, free chars or filter areas. You can set the InfoObject properties and also create exceptions and conditions.
    The Adhoc Query Designer is a web item and can be made available in web reports
    See this link for more info and some important restrictions when using the Ad-Hoc Query Designer:

  • Ad-hoc Query Designer: Create Exception

    Hi there,
    somehow, my Ad-hoc Query designer is going crazy or something. I don't know whether it is a technical error.... hope you can help me.
    When I create an exception, if I don't set the standard operator AND all characteristics to "All" the exception is displayed only for the results.
    When I set all these operators to "All", then the results are also marked in the respective colours. However, I only want to mark everything but the results, but if I choose for this option, only the overall result is displayed.
    Can you help me?
    Thanks,
    Sabine

    Hi Sabine,
    I think I did not fully get what your requirement is, please elaborate on what you want to be displayed. Something general
    1. in tab "exception values" you can specify the key figures on which the exceptions are to be applied and assign value ranges to different colors / levels
    2. in tab "validity area of exception" you can specify
    a) to apply the exception on all or totals only (choicebox), this setting is valid for all characteristics not mentioned in the field below
    b) to apply the exception on everything, totals, everything but totals, fixed value, hierarchy level corresponding to a certain characteristic

  • Change query in Ad-hoc Query Designer

    Hello All,
    We are using Ad-hoc Query Designer for users to run their reports. now we want them to do their modifications there itself and save as the query. But SAVE and SAVE AS buttons are Inactive. 
    One more problem with using Ad-hoc Query Designer is when we run reports and want to save the Bookmark, this function is not working (though the Bookmark button is Active).
    It would be helpful if you could pinpoint the settings/configurations that I would need to check to get above two things working.
    Thanks and Best regards

    If you want users to enter the data , you can create a transactional cube andmake the query input ready .

  • Ad Hoc Query Designer - Web Application

    Hello,
    I have created a Web application that has the 'Ad-Hoc Query Designer' item.
    When I go to create a new query I don't have the option (or I can't find it) to use any variables.
    Like in Analyzer I can run a query and it will ask me the values for the variables I have embedded in the query.
    How do I make that work using the 'Ad-Hoc Query Designer'
    Also I have problems with the application timing out, what timeout variable needs to be adjusted?
    Thanks,
    Nick

    You have to run the Launch query in browser from the query designer window, it will be the second icon from the top. This will open up the query in a browser and if the query has a selection screen the browser will launch the selection screen.
    For the application timing out, it is a parameter that has to be set in the instance profile of the BI application server. You can ask your basis team to increase the parameter 'rdisp/j2eetimeout'.
    Hope this helps

  • How to get the standard Menu of Query Designer into Web Template

    Hi Experts,
    is there a way on how to put the standard menu within Bex Query Designer (after executing a Query with the Query Designer you get into ad-hoc reporting with a menu including several functions like print, show as..., properties, etc) into an individual Bex Web Template?
    Copy & Paste source code will not work I guess because of several javascript functions I don't have access to.
    Thanks & Best regards
    Tobias

    BEx queries are displayed on the web using standard web template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN or some customized version base don your implementation.
    You can either include the 0ANALYSIS_Pattern web template in your custom template or use Save as to create a new template with 0ANALYSIS_Pattern  AS THE STARTING POINT.

  • Adhoc query designer in BI 7.0

    Hello BI Experts,
    How and where to use the Adhoc query designer in BI 7.0 Web application designer. Is this web item available. what is the new name for it.
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance
    BWer

    Hi BWer,
    The Ad Hoc Query Designer Web item is no longer available in the BI 7.0 runtime, only with the BI 3.x tools. The BEx Web Analyzer is the tool now used - you can create new query views from an existing query or directly against an InfoProvider.

  • BEx Query Designer and Exceptions

    I have a simple enough task.  I was tasked, with marking items on a query with an exception, however the value is not static.  I have a column marked hours, and five columns for each day of the week.  The current day with data should yield an exception if the current day has less hours the the calculated hours column.  So my first approach was to create a formula where I evaluate both the hours calculated from the query and the current day. I called this field fday1.  I created an exception stating that if fday1 = 1 then to mark the field Bad3.  but I want the affected structure to be the Actual Day such my column days are: Day 1 (current date), Day 2 (current date + 1) etc... but when I visit the query (ie, adhoc query) only the formula field fday1 has the exception day triggered.  In the exceptions list  I define the keyfigure fDay1 (time of evaluation [before list calculation]) Under the display tab I have exception affects data cells for the following structure elements: Day 1 (current date).
    like If I execute this query through the portal the exception shows up correctly on the proper field.  if I execute the query through the adhoc (BEx Ad Hoc Analysis) view, then the wrong field has the exception.
    any thoughts on a better way to approach this query?

    Nobody has a solution in order to highlight the whole row (characteristic and key figures) for a value of a key figure ?
    With WAD or Query Designer, I'm trying to highlight a line with an exception on a key figure but it apparently colors only key figures.
    For example i would have entire colored rows for negative key figure :
    field1:a field2:x field3:e key_figure:1
    field1:b field2:x field3:e key_figure:7
    field1:b field2:y field3:e key_figure:-5
    field1:d field2:z field3:j key_figure:1
    I can use WAD or Query Designer but not Visual Composer or Report Designer...
    Thanks for help.

  • Query potal limits the Row in Query designer

    Hi All,
    When i am executing the query in Query designer 7 it is showing as 4 or 5 columns only. We need to show the complete report.Everytime we are clicking on next page and going forward. Because of this reason we are going for WAD.
    Is there any alternate solution where we can show the maximum number of row in the first time execution itself??

  • Providing access to Variables in the Query Designer

    Greetings experts and fellow consultants,
    I have a simple question, did a search and did not come up with much of an answer.  Currently, we have a system with a role for BI Power Users in order for them to create ad-hoc queries.  An issue we found was that these power users were not able to view variables within the query designer:
    Under the "Characteristic Restrictions" pane, the variables show up as (Display Not Allowed) under their associated InfoObjects.  This is presenting an issue (understandably) and I would like to provide access for these power users to see the variables.
    My question is, are there any circumstances where I would want to restrict which variables are shown to the power user?  Right now, I plan to allow display access to all variables (via S_RS_COMP+S_RS_COMP1 for those informed on Security).  Just trying to brainstorm on whether there might be scenerios where I would want to hide certain variables.
    Many thanks to all opinions, as always!

    Suresh, in my above post I knew how to enable this.  I just wanted to know in regards to security whether there were any exposures.  Apparently, I could not find any and the changes went through without issue.  The way you enable display of variables in the Query Designer is the following:
    S_RS_COMP:
    RSINFOAREA '*'
    RSINFOCUBE '*'
    RSZCOMPTP 'VAR'
    ACTVT '03'
    S_RS_COMP1:
    RSZCOMPTP 'VAR'
    RSZCOMPID '*'
    RSZOWNER '*'
    ACTVT '03'
    Hope this helps.  Of course, adjust the field values are you see fit but the minimum requirement is that RSZCOMOPTP 'VAR' (Variables) and ACTVT '03' (Display).

  • Adhoc query designer

    Hi All,
    Is adhoc query designer (Portal) supports 7.3 version? we have 3.x version
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,
    Ravi

    Hi,
    Ad-hoc query designer is removed (BOBJ WebI fulfills this need).
    The use of WebI can be through LiveOffice, BICS, OLAP & SQL Universes, QaaWs and Data Federator for accelerated (BWA) or non-accelerated ad-hoc querying (can also be used for any 7.x system)
    Thanks,

  • Future of BEx Query and BEx Query Designer

    Folks, I understand SAP's future reporting tools is BO suite. All of us need to move to the new tools which are better or more reliable in 2010. Meanwhile our customers are reluctant to use BEx tools for any new development. Being on the techi side I dont see how BEx Query will be replaced by Voyager or Polestar or WebI or Crystal. I just need to report on my multiprovider without a universe layer. Have any of you experts come across documentation that layed out future of BEx tools explaining the end of support period? I have see roadmaps for tool availability but no dates for end of support.
    Thanks in advance.

    AFAIK,
    Bex Query designer and BEx query will continue... Polestar might be proposed as an alternative for BEx but then it is meant for ad-hoc analysis ... but BEx query and Query designer have specific query requirements also...
    Voyager etc will start coming in...
