Bex query crash for a user on sap portal

hi gurus ,hope this thread match here...
i have a bex query which users see it through sap portal, i have the case where a user X has made some drill down between rows and columns of the query (over portal), and since then every time this user X open the query, portal shows the query on the rows-columns format that the user X used once.
What can i do in order user X see que query (on portal) in the default rows-columns??
This problem just happen with user X, others users see the query in the default format with no problems.
I ve tried deleting the portal personalization for user X on sap portal, but the problem persists...
suggets?

Hi Arjun
Please check the SAP portal and BI system version and then check the compatibility for BEx Query in IE9.
Refer to http://service.sap.com/pam >> Click on SAP Netweaver version, here you can find the PDF files.
BI (BEX Web) is supported on IE9 with SAP porta version 7.0 SPS24 in vista or windows 7 if you SAP portal version is 7.0

If its Java only error then there wont be any dump in ST22.
Strange issue for you, in general if we get 500 error, there should be details of it in the same page.
You said this issue is occuring for only one user, is it getting replicated every time?
You are also seeing the same error when u login as that particular user?
Do one thing, assign him the Content Admin role and then do the preview of this iView form content admin and see if ur still seeing this error.

How can I change the password for the USER in SAP.

How can I change the password for the USER in SAP?
also I want to change the Language and date Format b/c it's displaying in German language..

Hi,
Assuming that User has already his/her user-id and password, and now he/ she wants to change it.
select the client and provide Log-in credentials. Now, instead of 'ENTER' there is one Tab: 'New Password' (up, left hand). Click it.
Now, system will ask for new password to change.
If you are asking from Basis point of view, then T.code: SU01 - User Maintenance.
Enter User's id and Click Change icon.
It will lead to Page: Maintain User.
Here, Select tab: Logon Data
There is a Sub-Tab: Password.
Here, key-in change password and SAVE.
For Language and Date format, contact your Basis-Personnel.

Unable to replicate SRM users in SAP Portal

Dear All,
We've followed the below link to auto replicate the SRM Users in SAP Portal:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/en/08/bae789ee8743d5b4cb2fbf93a9831b/content.htm?frameset=/en/08/bae789ee8743d5b4cb2fbf93a9831b/frameset.htm
But after doing all the configuration steps, we are yet not able to replicate the SRM users in Portal.
SPML Destination Connection test is successful and all other configurations are done and cross checked.
Is there any report program that we have to run / schedule for the user replication.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Anurag

Dear Carl,
The above link that you've shared talks about replicating user accounts from UME to the SAP System.
However in our scenario, we want the replication from SAP system to UME. So, it's a reverse scenario.
The link that I've shared above in my thread talks about my scenario and in fact we've done all the configuration steps also.
But it is not working at the moment and I believe that there must be some additional setting / trigger point that would initiate the replication.
If somebody has already come across such scenario, please advice.

BBS BEX Query to R3 Transaction - Connect to SAP GUI for HTML not to R3 Backend-TA

Hi Experts,
I try to customize a report-report-interface from a bex query to R3 transaktion fs10n.
I configurated everything in TA RSBBS within BI.
When I start the BBS from the BEX Query a browser session opends, I have to enter the login data for the R3 system an SAP GUI for HTML is started.
Several years ago I tried the same and was connected directly to the Backend-Transaction within R3.
Was there a change within the last year?
Is it possible to configure somewhere in R3 or BW that I want to be tranferred to the Backend-TA and not to open a SAP GUI for HTML?
Can someone help?
Best regards
Mirjam
(SAP Netweaver 7.31 -> SAP ECC 6.0)

Hi Stephen,
You should try running one of these transaction iViews using Firefox and have Firebug installed (or use HTTP watch in IE). This might show you why the styles are not being loaded, it could be that since the upgrade something has changed in the SICF configuration settings that is blocking the download of the CSS... that is just a guess, but if you use a tool that will show you the HTTP traffic (like Firebug) then you might get a better idea of what is going on.
Hope this helps,
Simon

Creating Restrictions in BEx query designer for (1-a), where a is variable.

Dear All,
>> Suppose for the variable in the BEx query designer, I've created restriction for 0FISCPER to the variable 0P_PER (as 0P_PER-1) by right clicking 0P_PER3, from that a dialog box appears. In that I've selected 0P_PER3 and then clicked on offset variable and when I set the offset variable, it works for (0P_PER-1.etc, 0P_PER+1,etc..)
But if I want to have (1-0P_PER), then plz tell me how to define this restriction?
Plz explain me the steps to perform (1-0P_PER) restriction in BEx query designer in BW1.
I'm using SAP BI 7.2 gui.
Expecting your reply soon,
with Regards,
Jerald

My requirement is that I want to have " 1-fiscal year"., But this I could not define using offset variables, since using offset we can define "fiscal year +1" or "fiscal year -1".
So there would be some other way to define "1-fiscalyear". So Please help me to define "1-fiscalyear" by giving me the steps.
Thank you,

Is it too much to ask MS for a simple ad-hoc query tool for end users?

Hello
This is a general MS BI topic and not specific to Power Query, but I couldn't find a more suitable general forum for it.
This posting is the result of the frustration I have with MS BI stack, whereby a simple ad-hoc drag and drop query tool to get the data in a table format (preferably from a relational
data source) is missing, something that other big vendors have, such as SAP Business Objects Universe and the associated tools. The deprecated SSRS Report model and SMDL was the closest MS ever got to this functionality (although that had some limitations
too), which unfortunately is dead now in favour of all sort of "Power" tools that basically can’t deliver the same functionality.
The requirement is pretty simple: provide users with a tool that they can drag and drop fields from different entities in a data model without having to worry about entity relationships and
apply necessary filters and get the data out in Excel or CSV, no fancy (or even simple) aggregation or formatting is required, and users should only see the rows they are authorized to see, i.e. row level security (RLS) of data.
Let’s see what we have at our disposal from MS BI:
From the modeling perspective, we have relational models in the database that support RLS with views, but obviously cannot maintain PK-FK relationships in the database model between views. Other
models are .Net Entity Data model Framework model exposed as OData, and SSAS tabular, SSAS PowerPivot, SSAS multidimensional, which you can find a good comparison of their features here:
http://www.sqlchick.com/entries/2012/3/4/decisions-powerpivot-ssas-tabular -or-ssas-multidimensional-m.html
From the tools perspective we have:
Power Query on top of a relational database (SQL Server): Can connect to relational databases easily, generated queries are optimal, detects relationships with entities, but only when entities
are tables and have PK-FK relationships enforced in the database. So can’t detect relationships with views and hence can’t enforce RLS, so this is not an option unless users keep joining entities, which is not a desirable option either.
Power Query on top of an OData: Works well except that queries generated for multiple entity expansion are terrible (look here for more details:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7a8b8e52-d3a9-42af-bc52-9d5459c00529/odata-multilevel-expand-query-issue?forum=powerquery). In addition all filtering and projections are done at client side, so even if you want 1 row out of 1 million, all
rows are brought over to Excel before filtered. Overall this results in unacceptable performance even for small sized data.
Power Query on top of a tabular model: Doesn’t support that type of data source yet (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/ebcccb5e-7058-4046-917d-3d7fcf60cbdc/tabular-model-as-data-source-for-power-query?forum=powerquery).
Even if it did, tabular models don’t support Many-to-Many relationships out of the box and not sure if there are plans to support tabular models in Direct Query mode in Power Query to take care of RLS.
Excel on top of tabular models or multidimensional models: The tabular model should not be in Direct Query mode and you only get to use PivotTable to query the model. PivotTables are not famous
for generating optimal MDX queries, so performance is not going to be acceptable if you are dealing with large dimensions, especially large junk and degenerate dimensions. You can use drilltrough to get details of a measure, but you have to specify the columns
for a drilltrough action upfront, no flexibility for users to select what they want to see.
PowerPivot on top of relational databases: The query designer cannot detect relationships between views, so users have to perform manual joins, not an option.
PowerPivot on top of a multidimensional or tabular model: The query designer doesn’t generate optimal MDX queries by drag and drop. Especially there doesn’t seem to be a way to add related
attributes of a dimension attribute to the query without cross joins which results in poor performance on large dimensions. Other issues found here
http://sqlblog.com/blogs/marco_russo/archive/2010/08/24/using-ssas-2005-2008-as-powerpivot-data-source-query-designer.aspx. In addition the result set has ugly column names and issues with data types, such as interpreting numeric data types as Text, and
there’s no straight forward way of getting the data from PowerPivot directly to Excel. The user either has to do a copy/paste (which doesn’t work on large datasets) or create a pivot table, bring the measure, and drillthrough the measure to get the details
in table format.
PowerPivot with OData: Treats every entity as a separate table to import, not suitable for our use case.
Report Builder and SSRS on top of relational, multidimensional or tabular model: Given the query designer is the same as PowerPivot, it has similar issues. In addition, there are 4 more steps
from designing a query to generating an Excel or CSV output, not an option.
PowerView: Works against tabular and multidimensional models, but there’s no way of exporting data to Excel sheet. Besides the add-in is not available for Excel 2010.
Good old MS-Access: Link to tables and views through ODBC, create relationships between entities and give each user a copy of that Access database to create their queries, and deal with the
nightmares of updates to the model and distribution of new models to the users! Did I mention Access as an option?
So there you go, 10 options, none of which can deal with a seemingly simple use case sufficiently. At the moment, the best among them appears to be option 6 against a heavily optimized OLAP
cube, and perhaps #3 when/if Power Query support for tabular models in direct query mode arrives. Perhaps I am missing something very obvious, and would like someone to enlighten me here.
Thanks

Hi, as far as I can infer, that term means it's not loading any resources until needed, opposite of this...
-bind_at_load
Sets a bit in the mach header of the resulting binary which tells dyld to bind all symbols when the binary is loaded, rather than lazily.
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/ld.1.html
Load resources lazily.
You should never load a resource file until it is actually needed. Prefetching resource files may seem like a way to save time, but this practice actually slows down your app right away. In addition, if you end up not using the resource, loading it wastes memory for no good purpose.

And, higher OS versionsare even worse with Bonjour/mDNSResponder, but might see this...

Setting Default Global Settings for Bex Analyzer 7 for all users

We need to set default settings for Bex Analyzer Global Settings when we install SAP-GUI 7.2 in our user's workstations. The current default settings are that all of them are turned off. We would rather not have to run around and change each of our 1,000 user's settings.

Just so any one is looking for the correct solution and it worked for me.
Small correction to the information in the OSS note 1254112.
for setting the legacy version setting use the below string in the registry

BI Bex Query prompt based on User's Authorization....

Hi
In BI, I created 1 BEx Query based on Authorization. If a user runs the query, it prompts for 'Customer Name' to get data of particular customer. And Customer values are populated in the prompt based on User's Authorization.
For example:
User1 is authorized to see data of Customer1 & Customer2. So, Query prompt will show 2 values: 'Customer1' & 'Customer2'.
But User2 is authorized to see data of Customer1, so Query prompt will show 'Customer1' only.
I created 2 variables on Customer field:
1) Authorization Variable in Filter Section
2) Manual, Single Entry, Mandatory on Default Value section.
My Requirement:
If user is authorized to link with only 1 Customer, he should not get prompt & on the background prompt value should be populated from his authorization value. But if user is authorized to see multi-customers, then prompt should appear.
If possible pls. provide some suggestions....
Thanks...

Yes, this can be done.
but there is little work around.. Using guided navigations
1. Create a report with column fx as case when 1=0 then markets.region else user() end
2. apply filter on this column is equal to User_1
3. Create another report with column fx as case when 1=0 then markets.region else user() end
4. apply filter on this column is equal to User_2
5. Now add all your prompts to dashboard, but each prompt should in each section object of dashboard.
6. For first section click on section properties, go to Guided Navigation...
7. Browse Source Request as first report.. and keep If request returns rows selected.
8. Repeat above step for another section.. but this time browse 2nd report.
9. Just save dashboard.
Check now..
Hope you understood..

FI-SD data-BEx Query Logic for Amount received for the Lasts F.Year Sales

Hi Friends,
Need your assistance in designing one BEx Query,
We have Two cubes...one is sales ZSALES01 and Account Receivables ZFIAR01. On top of these cubes e built Multiprovider.
In the sales cube (ZSALES01)., we have calender day, Financial year , Fiscal period characteristics as time characteristics and Net Values as key figures. And Same way in the Account recievable cube (ZFIAR01) we have calender day( Which is mapped with Posting date), Financial year , Fiscal period characteristics as time characteristics and Credit/Debit amount as key figure.
My requiremnt is that i have to show in BEx with below scenarios.......
1.Amount received for the sales occured till Last Financial year
2. Amount Received for the sales occured in this current financial year
We have two show these values for company code wise , we have company code in both cubes nad we have financial year...and some other common fields there in both cubes.
Can you please guide me how to design the same in BE query.
Thanks & Regards,
Anand

are you saying that in your query you need to have 4 columns;
- Sales Last Year
- Sales Current Year
- AR for Sales (LY+CY)
- AR for Sales Current Year
If yes, getting Sales Information is easy. You need to use customer exit variable to get the current year (calendar or fiscal)
- for Sales Last Year, use customer exit variable for current year with a offset of -1
- for Saels Current Year, use customer exit variable for current year
For AR columns, as I said in my earlier post - use a lookup while loading data in AR cube. Use the Sales Doc Number and get the year information (calendar, financial or fiscal - whatever you want to use depending on your requirement) from Sales flow. This way you can tell if a particular FI doucment is for this year's sales or last year's sales.
Now, you can use another customer exit variable for AR column depending on the "Sales Year" infoboject. Customer exit variable shold be populated with the current Sales Year.
- for AR for Sales CY, use this customer exit variable
- for AR for Sales LY, use this customer exit variable with offset of -1
- AR for Saels (LY+CY), add both the columns above
Another way of achieving AR for Sales (LY+CY) is to restrict the RKF or value range using customer exit variable for Sales year with BETWEEN operator (From var1 to (var1-1)).
You can also use the option of replacment path variable as Durgesh mentioned. but in that case you will have to create two addition queries based on sales data which will return:
- sales documents for last year
- sales documents for current year
then you need to create two replacement path variables for AR columns which will get values from these two queries.
I hope it helps.

Gaurav

Need the solution in the Bex Query level for a Business Requirement.

Hi BI Experts,
I have a requirement at Bex Query level and the scenario is like this:
Business Logic.
Right now am showing the Stocks falling in to time slot like 6-9 months and 10-12 months from the date of PKD in two columns B1 and B2 respectively.
And also calculating the stock selling price of B1 with 30 % discount and B2 with 50% discount.
In the above said discounts client may change the discount % in any future Quarters
Now the requirement is, if client needs to see the history of sales according to the declared Discount selling prices of stocks falling into B1 and B2 slots, he must get the values accordingly.
( Am using the Formulas for calculating the Discount % for the Stocks fall in to B1 and B2 slots)
Business Example:
For Q4 2007 The discount for B1 Stocks is 35% and B2 Stocks is 60%.
For Q2 2008 The discount for B1 Stocks is 35% and B2 Stocks is 55%.
For Q3 2008 The discount for B1 Stocks is 30% and B2 Stocks is 50%.
For Q4 2008 The discount for B1 Stocks is 40% and B2 Stocks is 50%.
Now running report ( running in Q4 2008 at some date) if client needs to check the B1 and B2 stocks in Q4 2007 or Q3 2008 the values need to come with the calculation of repective % of disounts declared in that quarters along with the selling prices in that quarter.
This all should be done at query level nothing to do at Infoproviders level.
Is there any option like storing query data as a master data and retrive it according to the selection to get the exact values of the respective % Discounts and time lines.
If It is not clear come up with questions for still more clarifications.
Points are assured.
Thanks in Advance,
RK.

Who is defining the % discounts for periods/quaters?
Is this maintained in a custom table or externally in legacy/R3 system?
There are various ways to achieve the result. Variable exits can be used or virtual KF/char can be used but all depends on actual requirements.
Cheers
