Bex Analyzer not connecting
Hi
I'm working on a new implementation. The Bex query designer, WAD and report designer all give me the log on box when trying to connect.
But the Bex Analyzer does not come up with this options. It just shows the normal Excel screen and when I click on the offnen (open) icon, nothing happens. My security setting in Excel is low.
Do youhave any idea?
Strange, it won't let me access the note now on the market place either. I did however save the note at the time we needed it so i'm certain it's the right number. Basically the note only points you to download a windows patch which fixed the issue for us;
SAP Note 1025122
Summary
Symptom
You start the BEx Analyzer after you have implemented the BI tools.
When you start the BEX Analyzer, the system displays the Analyzer toolbar, but it does not execute the functions when you choose the pushbuttons.
Other terms
Install Microsoft fix 907417 on your affected PCs (can be downloaded from Microsoft Help and Support under http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907417/).

Dear Experts
Iam working on a new installed BI Developement server, when i type RRMX it throws me message : BEx analyzer not installed, install BEx AnalyzerHello,
You can have GUI, you can have excel, but bex analyzer is an add-in for excel, it is not sap gui and not excel itself.
In windows Start->All Programs->Business Explorer - check if analyzer is there, or check it in the respective windows folder, if is not there just install it using the sap cd or download it from service sap.

Working with documents via BEx Analyzer not using the portal
Hello,
i read that we are able to create (work) with documents (comments) via
BEx Analyzer. When i want to add a comment how it is described in the
help we get connected to the portal. We dont want to use the portal for
that. Therefore we searched a way to skip the portal. We read that in
BW Versions before 7.0 the portal was not connected but since 7.0 we
have the portal connectivity, but it should also possible to not use
the portal and to access directly the BI Server. I searched for the
Customizing to do so but i could not find it where to switch to the old
logic.
And another question is when we use the Portal with the knowledge base . The documents are stored in the document framework (SKWF). Is it the same as the Datawarehousing Workbench --> documents. This storage we want to use.
Can anyone give me a hint?
Kind regards,
MuratHi Murat,
We are also facing the same issue of when trying to create/access the documents from BEx analyzer it is connecting portal , we need to bypass portal and directly access the document browser in BW server.
In your thread you mentioned it is done. So can you please let me know how did you enable the old configuration?. It will be very much helpful to us.
Awaiting for your reply.
Thanks,

Edited by: Siegfried Szameitat on Jul 6, 2010 3:19 PMHi Faisal
Even I faced the same error while using SAPGUI 710 on Win7 with Excel 2007. You can try to get the latest Patches of the BEx 7.0 Addon and BEx 3.5 addon.
In case it still doesn't work, I tried this work around and it worked.
1. Login to the BW System using SAPGUI
2. Run the transaction RRMX and it will start BEx Analyser and you would be connected to the BW System (So no login reqd)
Please note that I didn't have problem with Query designer, only BEx Analyser was giving problem.
Also if you are able to solve the problem, please update the Process you achieved. There is problem in using BEx Analyser with Win7-Excel 2007/2010 for now. Let have a work around at least till the time SAP/MS Fixes this.

Bex Analyzer not showing unicode data correctly
Hi all,
we are currently testing unicode data with BW.
when desplaying the data in BEx Analyzer 3.5 there is some data that sows as #. not all.
The connection from BW tosource is unicode and the other side around.
The data is stored as unicode in BW - checking the infoobject masterdata, data displays correctly.
RSRT displays the data correctly - all unicode characters display correctly.
we also made a analyzer 7.0 query which also displays the data correctly.
BEx web also returns the 3.5 query correctly.
Does anyone encountered this in the past or knows why this is happening? the problem is clearly only with bex analyzer 3.5
i am using gui 7.20 with SAP BW 3.5 AddOn Patch 5 for GUI 7.20 patch.Jason-
We had exactly the same issue. The problem is not in the SAP system, it's in the MS Excel language system. Microsoft does not like to be set up for more than one language. Most users set up their computer for one language. So set up your test computer for... for example, Chinese. Allow English. Log in to Bex in Chinese, and execute your report. You should see Chinese characters, and you may also see English characters as well.
Please note also that if the characteristic text is not maintained in more than one language, you will see the key value instead of the text value. this can become an annoying issue.. for example, we had to write an exit in the datasource so that the customer name (in the communication language) was returned in every single installed langauge to the master data text.
Good luck ! -
BEx Analyzer not working in SAP GUI 7.10
Dear All,
BEx Analyzer 7.0 is not working on SAP GUI 7.10. Following are the details:
OS: Windows XP SP2
Installed the following softwares (in the sequential order):
1. Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 SP1
2. MS Office 2003 (without any service packs)
3. SAP GUI 7.10 (used SAPAllSetup.exe) to install both BEx Analyzer 3.5 and BEx Analyzer 7.0 alongwith SAP GUI 7.10.
While BEx Analyzer 3.5 runs fine, 7.0 does not.
Upon running BEx Analyzer 7.0 from the Programs menu, I see a toolbar on the left hand side on MS Excel in German. Whenever I click on any button, they do not respond.
When I tried to install update for Office 2003 (KB907417), I received the message stating the patch has already been applied.
I also applied SAP GUI 7.10 Patch Level 8, but still the problem remains the same.
Running Tcode RRMX from the SAP GUI opens MS Excel with both the toolbars of 3.5 (on top) and 7.0 (on left). As before, 3.5 works fine, while 7.0 does not.
Do I need to install Office SP2 or SP3, as well? Or something else? Any solutions?
Thanks and Regards,
Sachin.Hi All,
This problem is due to .NET 2.0 assembly(nothing but .dll's),
Step1 : Check if you can see this C:\WINNT\assembly\GAC exists
If it does and still getting the error, then follow these steps,
1) Uninstall office03
2) Uninstall GUI
3) Uninstall .Net 2.0
4) Reboot
5) Install .dll(WindowsXP-KB935448-x86-dll.exe) fix(this is due to .net1.1 and 2.0 coexistence)----- only if u get a critical message at startup.
5a) Reboot
5b) Install .net1.1
5c) Reboot
5d) Install .net2.0
5e) Reboot
6) Install office 03
6a) Reboot
7) Install .PIA's (O2003PIA.MSI)
7a) Reboot
8) Install setupall.exe for GUI
9) Install KB907---- (office2003-KB907417-FullFile-ENU.exe)
10) Reboot
Let me know if you encounter any problems.
OR....
Update the Latest Patchs of GUI & Bex.
BI710SP03_300-10004472.EXE

BEx Analyzer Not showing report result in canceling "Change variable Icon"
Hi Experts,
Do we have any settings in BEx Analyzer for retrive the Result set even after I click 'Change variable Icon' in Toolbar and cancel the variable pop-up window??
Eg: My query Result is displayed in Analyzer selecting some vaues in Selection screen.And when I click the Change Variable Icon from 'Analyzer Toolbar' its showing me 'Select values for variable' window.If I select the cancel button in it, then Query result becom blank showing the message "There are variables; change variable values". Do Analyzer having an option or settings to keep the result even if i cancel the variable selection from "change variable icon".
Thanx in advance..Sari-
If SAP provides such a function, I have not found it. The way I understand it., the change variable value initiates the OLAP back end. This clears the Presentation Manager front end, and clears the 'results' that are displayed on your workbook. If you cancel the OLAP run, the front end clear still executes.
HOWEVER... if you turn OFF Automatic Refresh before clicking on Change Variable Values and then clicking on Cancel, the presentation manager will not write any changes to your workbook. So that is your best solution. -

rayyanHi,
Check your support package and patch level of your BEx Suite. BI 7.10 Support Package 6 Patch 1 works fine with Excel 2007.
You might also want to check your installation using the file "sapbexc.xla" on your hard drive. You should find it in C:\Program Files\SAP\FrontEnd\Bw or similar, although i'm not quite sure this works with BI 7...

BEX Analyzer not working after SAPGUI730 update
Good day
I really require your expert assistance with the following:
The client has just upgraded to SAPLogon 7.30 file version 7300.3.1084 patch level 8, but they did not consider the application level and MO versions on any of the laptops.
A few laptops are configured with Windows 8, Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 and Excel for 32 bit.
Setups were run for "gui730_0-10010496: and "gui730_8-10010496".
Everything works, except for BEx Analyzer that does not want to open at all.
How do I fix this?
Thanks in advance
CjHi,
The support for Microsoft Office 2013 is available only after BI-addon for SAP
GUI 7.30 FEP300.
See 1652769 - 730 GUI DVD - BEx tools - HW\SW requirements
Have you satisfied this criteria?

BEx analyzer not working on GUI 7.10
Hi,
We install BI 7.0 now we want to use BEx analyzer , we installed SAP GUI 7.10 on windows XP
after running BEx analyzer wehn we try to open it's not working and toolbar is in german language.
Is any problem with GUI?
regards,
ajayWe also had the very same German toolbar issue. We are using both Bex 3.5 and BI 7.0 with SAPgui 7.10
We traced the German toolbar issue to the following Microsoft Fix. Make sure that Microsoft fix 907417 is on all PCs you are deploying the new GUI on (can be downloaded from Microsoft Help and Support under http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907417/).
The following are also preqrequisites are for 7.10 but I am guessing you got past this as the bi will not even install if these are not met. Microsoft .Net 2.0 components are required at a minimum with .Net 3.0 also being acceptable. Make sure that all Microsoft Windows Updates for .Net components are also applied.

How to prevent a portal user from using the BEx Analyzer ?
Hi,
we have different type of users : most users may use the portal as well
as the analyzer ;
we have one special user with extended authorizations : this user
should use the portal , where he has a limited set of queries to run
with hardcoded filters ==> this user should not be able to use the
analyzer however, since he then would be able to call all other queries
by using the find function ;
how can we make sure this user cannot use the analyzer , using SAP
authorizations ?
best regards,
Erwin Van Giel.Hi,
if I remove the complete S_RFC authorization for the user then the BEx Analyzer cannot connect anymore to the BW system, but neither can the user run reports from the portal : it needs the S_RFC with 'SYST'.
If I only remove the RRMX from the S_TCODE and from the S_RFC, it does not prevent the user from starting the BEx Analyzer and connecting to the BW system. It only stops the user if he would start the RRMX transaction from within an SAPGUI session.
Perhaps there should be a value in the S_RFC that allows connections from the portal but not from the BEx Analyzer .... ?
so not solved yet ....
best regards,
Erwin.
