Are SAP BEx Favorites Overwritten when SAPGui is upgraded?

We are upgrading from SAPGui 6.40 to SAPGui 7.10 patch level 10.  We are still using BW 3.5, so we are also installing the BW 3.5 add-in.  Is it possible to maintain your saved BEx queries so that you do not have to recreate them after the SAPGui is upgraded?  I am trying to minimize troubles for our end users, and I could not find an answer this question on the web.
Thank you for your help.

  • What are the username and password when i click the ICM of JavaEE5@SAP

    when i click the ICM of JavaEE5@SAP in the sapmanagement console mmc, It need i input the username and password for Web_admin, What are the username and password when i click the ICM of JavaEE5@SAP and which tools act the role as the VisualAdministrator of NetWeaver04s and NetWeaver2004s?
    thank you very much

    Hello Guoging,
    you can login to ICM with username Administrator and password abc123. That is described in the start.html file, which you can find in the unzipped Downloadpackage of SAP NetWeaver Java EE 5 Edition.
    You can use NetWeaverAdministrator(NWA) or config tool to configure this edition. NWA
    needs to be installed separately. If you have a default installation, go to
    C:SAPJP1JC00j2eeNWAdmin and execute the file install.bat. Ensure that NetWeaver is running, enter user Administrator und the Masterpassword you chose during installation and wait around 20 Minutes or more. NWA is started automatically after installation has finished in your webbrowser.
    For more information on NWA read the Administrationguide

  • I get 'SAP BEx web Application designer has stopped workin' when click WAD

    Hi,
    When I click on WAD(Web Application Designer option from Business Explorer menu),
    I get "SAP BEx web Application designer has stopped working".
    I am running VISTA.
    Any hints on how to deal with this problem?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I uninstalled and installed again the GUI and Bex Explorer
    I installed again SetUpAll.exe and selected:
    --SAP GUI for Windows 7.10 (Compilations3)
    --BW 3.50 Add-On for SAP GUI 7.10
    --Business Explorer
    On completion, I had two options for WAD:
    --Web Application Designer (SAP BW 3.x)
    --Web Application Designer
    When I point my mouse on "Web Application Designer " for selection, there is a message that
    "Business Explorer Web Application Designer  - Can only be used in SAP NetWeaver 7.1"
    and when I go ahead to click on it, I get the error message I reported in my initial post
    If I select Web Application Designer (SAP BW 3.x), it takes me in alright but the view is a bit different, in that in the New template of the Web Application, on the right pane, I do not see the icon for DataProvider which used to be there when I used to work in "Web Application Designer" instead of  "Web Application Designer (SAP BW 3.x)"
    Any hints?
    Thanks

  • SAP BEX Calculated Column

    Hi ,
    I would like to thanks to all who helped me in getting my work done for my previous questions.
    This time i came up with some new questions ... is there a way to create a calculated column in the SAP BEx query ? I dont have global query edit permissions but i can chage the Local View of the query.
    1 )
    I have a Original Hire Date and Most Recent Hire Date as two columns in the BEX Query, when i refresh the query it will populate in tow different columns which is usual. But, i would like to combine these two DATE columns (based on some criteria) as one and want to produce as a single DATE columns.
    would it be possible... ?
    2)
    I have two query's in a workbook and the first query will give the employees ID's which i have import in the second query. Is ther any way to import these ID's in to Second query automatically through VBA or some other code ... ?
    Thanks in Advance for you kind help.

    Hello,
    Both are possible.
    1) Please go through the following links:
    due date minus current date
    http://forums.sdn.sap.com/search.jspa?q=date%20bucket&objID=c4&dateRange=all&searchID=72203772&rankBy=10001&start=30
    2) Id directly can not import into the query. but you can display at the end of the query(Left,right,Top,Bottom). You have to use simple excel formula : =+sheet1!A1. It will display all values from sheet1 starting from cell A1 in sheet2 .
    Thanks.
    Please let me know if you need further help.
    Thanks.
    With regards,

  • I need to know the user who has created/modified a SAP Bex Query and WAD

    Hi!
    I need to know the user who has created and modified a SAP Bex Query and SAP  Web Application Designer. Does it possible to know this information by a table or view?
    Best Regards
    Ramon Sanchez

    Hi,
    In BEx query, when you click "Queries" to open the query, the list of queries are displayed. Highlight the query, click on the "Properties On/Off' icon(right most on the top), you would see all the details.
    In WAD, before opening the template, click on "Properties On/Off'" icon to see the details.

  • SAP Bex: Not Enough cells to display result

    Hi,
    In BW 3,5 Analyzer, if user typed some values next to the reported columns and then tried to drill down on columns say characteristics profit center, the system used to display a message with options like below:
    ''SAP Bex: Not enough cells to display result
    -TO extend the result areas to the right:
    0 Overwirte the existing cells
    0 insert cells next to the results area
    0 insert entire columns''
    After upgrading the query to 7.0, the Analyzer does not pop-up this information and it simply overwrites the existing cells.
    Can you please advise, if there are some settings in BI 7.0 which can enable pop-up of this information window with above options?
    Please suggest.
    Best Regards,
    UR

    Hi,
    Try setting the cells which are not to be overwritten as formulas and refreshing them which may not overwrite those cells.

  • How to remove Decimals in Quantity Objects in SAP BO Explorer View created on top SAP Bex Query?

    Hi,
    I created SAP BO Explorer report on top of SAP BEx Query.
    In SAP BEx Query, Decimals were hided but when i created OLAP Universe on top that SAP BEx Query and Created Index on top of Information Space in SAP BO Explorer and then created Exploration Views. But i'm getting Decimals in my Exploration Views where as SAP BEx Query in RSRT, no decimals were appearing.
    Can anyone suggest me how to remove decimals in SAP BO Exploration Views.

    Hi Ramana,
    I am not use how you connect to SAP BEx query (Via universe or BWA or HANA)
    What I could say is BWA and HANA, you cannot adjust this
    For universe, you could try in universe layer, there is note about this
    For BWA and HANA, this function might be enhanced but you 'd better raise OSS to SAP to check with them
    Best regards

  • Is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten when importing data via xdp-file?

    In an pdf-form designed with LCD everytime the form gets merged with an xdp-datafile content of all fields get overwritten, regardless which data-binding (normal, global, none) is assigned to the fields and regardless if the fields are exluded in the xdp-datafile. Is this normal behavior and is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten?

    The xdp-file is first exported from Acrobat Professional 8 (export data as *.xdp) to get the complete structure. Then in the xdp-file some fields are removed manually and other fields are filled with data. When the modified xdp-file is opened again with Acrobat Professional 8 it grabs the original pdf-form and merges the manually filled fields into the form. With the merge all other fields in the form are overwritten, even if they are not defined in the xdp-file. And that is what I want to avoid. I want to merge the xdp-file into the form and keep the data in fields not defined in the xdp-file.

  • SAP BEX Analyzer Set values for variables

    Please help us out in sorting out this problem,
    We are automating BEx Analyzer for a Testing Project with Quick Test Professional (QTP) a functional automation tool uses VB script.
    Problem:
    There are 5 steps in automation
    Invoke BEx Application
    Log in to BEx server
    Run Query
    Set values for Variables for Query
    Display Report
    We are able to do 1,2,3 steps using BEx API functions and running BEx macros but we struck up with 4th step,
    1. Invoke BEx Application
    ‘Launch Excel
    Dim app
    Set app = createobject("Excel.Application")
    ‘Make it visible
    app.Visible = true
    ‘Attach add-in to Excel file
    app.Run ("'C:\Program Files\SAP\Business Explorer\BI\BExAnalyzer.xla'!SetStart")

    Function logonToBW(app)
    Dim myConnection
    Dim logonToBW2
    On Error Resume Next
    logonToBW2 = True

    Till here the script is running fine then the “Select values for Variables” window is displayed.
    This is where exactly we struck up; in this window we need to select values.
    Name of the Fields
         Field Name     Technical name of characteristic     Variable Name     Value
    1     Company Code                     0COMP_CODE     ZM_COMPCODE     1000

    5     Fiscal Year     0FISCYEAR     0P_FYEAR     2007
    To select values for variables, we are trying below code but its giving an error,
    app.Run  "'C:\Program Files\SAP\Business Explorer\BI\BExAnalyzer.xla'!SAPBEXSetFilterValue", “1000”, "0COMP_CODE"

  • How to design a optimized universe from SAP BEx queries

    Hi Team,
                  I would like to know some of the queries :
    1.How can you design a optimized universe from SAP BEx queries in the sense which gives you more performance
    2.What are the differences between Non SAP sources like Oracle,SQL and SAP sources in designing the Universe.
    3.Can we create a Derived table from an SAP source because i know that the Schema is not created for BEx queries,cubes.
    4.What are the advantages of having oracle as a source then SAP source.
    Can you please elobarate the above queries.
    Regards,
    Pradeep P.

    Hi,
    1. Check Ingos Blog on SDN ther are some PDF for performance regarding WebI on BW
    2. On RDBMS Source you have to design your universe. On OLAP Source like BW you generate the Universe and cant customize it a lot.
    4. Good question. In a BW all your logic is already in place. On a RDBMS you have to build your logic in a universe. But there are a lot of differences.
    Regards
    -Seb.

  • Universe Connections for SAP BEx

    Hi All,
    We are planning to build couple of Universes over SAP BEx query.
    Could anyone inform if we should go for creating a single connection and use it for all Universes (or) Create multiple connections.
    Does having different connections for different Universes(though Data Warehouse-BW) is same helps in increasing report performance?
    Thank you.
    - AK

    Hi,
    It all depends on your requirement. There are few ways.
    You can create one super universe on the top of your BW Query and then create your reports using your super universe.
    Or you can create multiple universes and then create your reports.
    Basically one universe one connection. SAP Universes are different then other universes where you create one connection.
    In SAP environment one universe one connection.
    Hope it helps.
