BeX Analyzer Login Prompt

Hello All,
Does anyone know of a way of using windows authentication (via Active Directory) to automate the login prompt in the BeX Excel Analyzer?  I have found a solution for the BI portal via SPNego, but have not been able to find any discussion or documentation about automating the BeX Excel Analyzer login prompt. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, --Matt

    Hi Derick,
    I want to make our discussion into 2 parts
    1) Sign on
    2) Viewing data based on the Heirarchy
    1)Before discussing about the Sign on i want to know which connectivity you are using ? Live offcie or QaaWS.
    2) We can make the second point possible in two ways One is with providing restriction at universe level
    and the other one is through the use of flash variables.
    Using flash variables:
    The main idea of using flash variables is reading the User ID from BO authentication and based on that we fetch the Heirarchy level of that user. Then we use some excel logic to hide the data from Low level heirarchy(Here we use Dynamic Visibility for components).
    I hope this is what you ar looking for....
    If so i have more points to acheive such scenario.
    Please provide the your BO environment details, such that it will be easy to identify the better best wat to acheve it.

  • Bex analyzer password  BI 7.0

    Hello
    I am encountering a issue with the Bex analyzer and passwords. We are running BI 7.0. I create a test user in our dev box I then start bex analyzer and select the dev box, enter my test user id and password. I log in  to bex analyzer without havng to change my initial password to another one. Any help is greatly apprciated. Thanks!
    Robert

    hello Srinivasan and SniffBW
    Thank you for the replies.
    First, I have tried to reset the password and it works. I thought the BEx analyzer would prompt for the password since you are logging into the system.  Is not this correct?
    Second I believe the user has enough privileges since it can do it in the GUI.

  • TRYING TO LAUNCH BEx ANALYZER FROM R3 SYSTEM, WITHOUT LOGIN AGAIN...

    Hi mates,
    We are trying to launch BEx Analyzer, with a Program/Function from R3 System, using an RFC.
    1.- We create a program in R3 system (4.6c), in that program we try to call BW (SAP BI 7.0, SP18), with:
            - CALL FUNCTION 'RSAH_LAUNCH_TRANSACTION_SLAVE'
              DESTINATION **RFC TO BW**
             EXPORTING
            TRANSACTION                  = 'RRMX'
    or
           -  CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_CALL_TRANSACTION_USING'
              DESTINATION **RFC TO BW**
                 EXPORTING
                   tcode                         = 'RRMX'
                   mode                          = 'N'
    With that, or calling an Z transaction, with an Z program, and calling the next functions in the BW program:
             'RSSEM_QUERY_LAUNCH'
             'RSAH_LAUNCH_EXCEL'
             With o without setting Infoprovider and Query or Workbook in the functions.
    The result was the same:
    1.- R3 call BW - OK
    2.- BW call BEx ANALYZER/EXCEL - OK
    3.- Analyzer shows, but the user have to login again in BEx Analyzer to open queries or workbooks, and that step we are trying to hide to the users.
    We need that users call BEx ANALYZER from R3 to BW using an R3 program or transaction, without login again into BW or BEx, but it seems like there is a problem with ANALYZER, RRMX (and its functions) and SSO.
    RFC works fine, and is "trusted". Remote connection and Test Connection works OK.
    If you make a REMOTE ACCCES with the RFC, and call RRMX, the result is the same, you have to login again in BEx Analyzer, to open queries or workbooks...
    We think, must be something wrong with the SSO, or the SSO with BWE and BEx Analyzer, i mean something wrong with the standar or versions.
    We tryied with:
    1.- BIAddon 9 in Excel 2007
    2.- BIAddon 6 in Excel 2003.
    We really appreciate your help.

  • User not able to login to Bex Analyzer

    Dear Experts,
    The user was facing the problem where he was not able to login to Bex Analyzer in only Quality system.
    He was able to login in Dev and Prod systems.can i please have the reason for the same.
    Regards,
    Sunil Kumar.B

    Hi  SunilKumar ,
    RFC connection error issue was stated by you. Basis team takes care when RFC issue occurs. But you are able to login for the same system so RFC Connection should not be the issue.
    Regarding the point of user being unable to login  ; it may be due to authorization issue which is also handled by basis team. So I suggested you to take their help and find out if the user is having the proper authorizations for the quality system as well.

  • BEx Analyzer 3.x language problem with GUI 710

    Hi All,
    We are having trouble to login to BEx Analyzer 3.x with GUI 710 with English language, even if we set language as EN in the logon pad by default it is logging into Japanese language. But 7.x Analyser is working fine.
    We have BI 7.0 and BW 3.5 systems. 
    SAP GUI 710 installed with latest available Frontend Patch ( bi710sp10_1000-10004472 , gui710_15-10002995 and bw350gui710_7-10004473 ) and we are using Excel 2003 on XP Professional.
    Installed .Net Framework 2.0, Microsoft office patch - office2003-KB907417
    Your help is very much appreciated.
    Regards,
    MKR

    Hi,
    Are you using different backend systems to connect for 3.x and 7.x? Because the file which prompts the SAP Logon is a common file used by both 3.x and 7.x.It shouldn't behave differently for the same system.
    You can uninstall the SAPGui and Front End patch and then reinstall it.
    The BW 3.5  patch  8  in SAP GUI 7.10 is released to the SMP now and is available for download.

    Hi Krishna ,
    I think you should highlight the portal role in presentation
    Now a days all organizations using sap portal as their user interface. We can login portal once and we can get all the information from bw,crm...sap systems and non sap systems.
    so no need to login each and every system individually.
    The portal offers a single point of access to SAP and non-SAP information sources, enterprise applications, information repositories, databases and services in and outside your organization—all integrated into a single user experience. It provides you the tools to manage this knowledge, to analyze and interrelate it, and to share and collaborate on the basis of it.
    With its role-based content, and personalization features, the portal enables users—from employees and customers to partners and suppliers—to focus exclusively on data relevant to daily decision-making processes

  • Problems with dynamic data slices and BEx Analyzer

    Hello experts,
    we use a data slice to lock released data.
    This data slice contains an exit-variable which selects all plan that are already released out of a ABAP dictionary table.
    The user can release data via planning function. He can start this function with a button in a BEx workbook.
    He use the same workbook for insert planning data.
    the problem is:
    when a user releases data, the value of the exit variable in our data slice changes but the data slice 9999 seems to be NOT generated with the new value. the reuslt is, that the user can still change released data.
    the data slice is just new generated after logout and login again not after refresh the query.
    Is there a possibility to force the system to generate data slice 9999 with the actual value of the exit variable? maybe a function module or method?
    We have this problem just in BEx Analyzer. In Web Reporting everything works fine and the data is locked by the data slice after refresh.
    Thank you
    Johannes

    Hallo Johannes,
    if you want to have this kind of behaviour you need to go for a data slice of type exit. You will find some information about this in the Planning forum.
    The data slice is instantiated once, but when you release the data you need to call a method in your exit data slice which rereads the values. This is a rough idea how this could be done.

  • Is there a possibility to disable the DESIGN MODE within BEx Analyzer 7.0?

    We need to disable the DESIGN MODE in the BEx Analyzer 7.0.
    Does someone know a possibility to restrict the access?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ulli

    Yes, it is possible to restrict the design of already existing workbooks.
    You may go to Workbook Settings, enable the option, 'Password Protect Workbook' and keep a password
    which may be known only to the people who can change the structure of the workbook.
    When this option is selected, if you goto design mode, it would prompt for a password, and if correct password is entered, only then be allowed to add/modify design items.
    I hope this helps.

  • 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")
    2. Log in to BEx server
    Login to Bex server

    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
