Skype uses IE ("Internet Explorer") as the browser interface on Windows based systems, this currently includes many windows such as the logon screen and add Contacts screen. This is fairly normal when a program uses browser logic internally, it is not changing what you use as a default browser.

Skype not using default browser

I recently uninstalled Skype to revert to an older version to get rid of the horrible "Skype Home" splash screen. While I found "Skype Home" useless and irritating, it was nothing compared to what I found out when I finished uninstalling.
These days it's quite common that when you're uninstalling a program, a browser window is launched to take you to the program's website, usually to show you some generic "we're sorry to see you leave" message. That's fair enough. However, most programs have the common courtesy to respect the user's default program settings and personal preferences and launch his default browser. This doesn't seem to be the case with Skype, for after uninstalling Skype I was shocked to see an Internet Explorer window opening.
Really, owned by Microsoft or no, there can be no excuse for such an insult to your customers, not to mention compromising their privacy and security by force-launching the unsafest and most disliked browser out there.
I am expecting a formal apology.

Hello,

Drill down ( Collapsible Row ) Report in BEx query designer ?

Dear Friends!
I am supoosed to create a report drill down report for Purchasing History to be precise, I know that we can have drill down feature using heirarchy but is it possible for Us to have PO & PO item heirarachy ? or any other way to do drill down reporting in SAP BEx Query designer ?
like my current report is : -
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
Now I am supposed to create a report in which
normal view
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | |> PO Number| .... ( keyfigures) | Payment |
drill down or collapsible view ( please consider the heading as data I am not talking about dynamically change of headings ).
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | V PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
is there anyway to design the report in above mention manner ? you any input will be appreciated greatly.
Thank you so much!
Regards
Naim

Hi Naim,
usually we don't do the transactional data as hierarchy. not sure the reason behind your requirement.
we can do one of the below :-
1. To have the default view as
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
and then user can drill down on rest of the characteristics for detailed view later on.
2. or if they don't want to drill down on characteristics;-
we can build 2 reports , one for header level information and then jump to second query for detailed information(item level) using RRI.
first query:
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
second query:
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
Let us know if this works out?

Sakthi.

Starting BeX Query Designer from Crystal opens older version Designer

Hi,
When starting the BeX Query Designer from Crystal Reports 2008, the older 3.5 version of the designer is started and hence wanting to edit a query that was designed in 2004s raises the error: "This component was edited with a more recent version of the editor. You also have to use the more recent version to edit further. Further processing is not possible. Update your front-end".
The latest version is installed, it seems that Crystal by default opens the 3.5 version that was installed with the 710 GUI and Business Explorer etc ... Is this by design and can one set something somewhere to use the 2004s version via Crystal Reports.
Any insight is welcome.

Settings for SAP Portal start page from BEx Query Designer

Hi!
In order to see queries I would like to use SAP Enterprise Portal from BEx Query Designer.
When I push "execute" button within BEx Query Designer a wrong page will be shown in browser.
I changed the settings in table RSPOR_T_PORTAL, but still get the wrong Portal page shown in browser.
Question:
What is the transaction/table/report to customize the portal start page using by BEx Query Designer?
Thank you very much!
regards
Jürgen

Hi Anton?
Many thanks for your reply.
But I mentioned that I changed the URL within table RSPOR_T_PORTAL and this does not help...
Do you speak Russian? Me too
Can you also help me with the following problem?
Hi!
I am about to implement SAP Best Practices scenario "B34: Accounts Receivable Analysis".
Therefore I load the data from SAP ERP IDES system into SAP NetWeaver 2004s system.
My problems are:
when I try to load the transaction data for Infosources 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_AR_6 from SAP ERP system the following happens:
- the status is getting u201Cyellowu201D (194 from 0 records)
- at the next day the status is getting u201Credu201D and I received the following error:
Errors while sending packages from OLTP to BI
Diagnosis
No IDocs could be sent to BI using RFC.
System Response
There are IDocs in the source system ALE outbox that did not arrive in the ALE inbox of BI.
Further analysis:
Check the TRFC log.
You can access this log using the wizard or the menu path "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system".
Error handling:
If the TRFC is incorrect, check whether the source system is fully connected to BI. In particular, check the authorizations of the background user in the source system.
Comment:
I did not find any entries on "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system"
The Source system connection EC6CLNT100 is OK
Can some one help me to solve this problem?

Results based on From and To value in Bex query designer.

Dear all,
We are using BI7.00. In one of our report which pertains to PM user wants to get the details of number of breakdowns which falls in the value range 0 to 1 hours.
I created a condition which has 2 variables, one is From value and the other is for the To value (since user wants to enter both the limits). I have written a condition that if the breakdown hour is greater than or equal to variable1 and less than or equal to variable2.
Using the above condition if the query is run, i am not getting the desired output. The values avaialble in the report are 0.65,0.78,1.30,7.38,0 etc., when i give 0 to 1 i should get the values 0.65,0.78 and 0 but instead report displays "No valid results".
I changed the condition and selected "Between" variable 1 and variable 2 - yet no change in the query.
To my knowledge i foresee that system is not able to recognize the decimal and hence provides details only based on the whole numbers.
How to get my requirement achieved in the Bex query designer.
Experts suggestion with steps will be very useful to solve my problem.
Regards,
M.M
Edited by: Magesh Magesh on Dec 26, 2008 11:28 AM

Hi Magesh,
I think you could try one more way.
Create a formula inserting your two formula variables for limits .(FV - are ready for input ) .
The formula would return the result as 1 or 0 because it would have boolean condition in it.
You could then place a condition in the query designer to only show all records where the value of the formula key fig is 1.
You formula A would look like
( KF > FV1) AND (KF < FV2) * 1.
And in the condition put A EQ 1.
You could scale the key figures as well and multiply the limits mentioned by the users in FV1 and FV2 if decimals are still not recognized by SAP.(scaling)

Difference between aggregation and calculation tab in BEx Query Designer

HI,
I am using BEx Query Designer for my report, for the key figures in the coloumn area i slected one numeric key figures, in the properties tab i found aggregation tab and calculation tab.
I need to sum up the total values for that particualar coloumn, when i used calculation tab i found to sum all the values for a particular coloumn, then what is the use the aggreagation tab?
I not able to used that Aggregation tab it is showing as a hidden fields...
can any one tell me whats the exact difference between these tabs and when we need to use which tab?
With Regards,
Thanesh Kumar.

Hi Thanesh Kumar,
I moved this thread from forum Data Warehousing to Business Explorer since it is a query related question (as SDN moderator).
I could explain to you the difference between these two tabs.
For "calculation" tab, it changes the display of result and does not change the calculation logic.
It means that, if this key figure is used further in formula, still the original number (without "calculation" tab setting) is used for further formula calculation.
For "aggregation" tab, it changes the real calculation logic.
The system takes the setting as the aggregation rule for records.
The most common aggregation rule is of course summation. If you set to e.g. Average here, the system does the
Average instead of summation when aggregating records. And the Average value will be taken for calculation
in further formulas or other calculations.
For "aggregation" tab, you could only use it for CKF (calculated key figure) or formula and you could not use it for
a basic key figure. That should be the reason why you see it greyed-out.
Regards,
Patricia

Usage of formulas in conditions in BEx Query Designer

Hi guys,
does anybody of you guys know, if it's possible to use the results of formulas in conditions? I tried it, but the result of the query was "No applicable data found", but there are data for the selection.
When I'm defining the condition with the key figure (no restricted or calculated key figure), then the query can be executed.
In my case, I like to define a condition based on a formula result. The value should only be displayed, when the result is greater than 30.
Any ideas or are there any bugy in the BEx Query Designer?
Thanks a lot + best regards,
Clemens

Hi Clemens,
I have created a condition in my own system based on formula and it works perfectly fine. Please check following points in your condition change mode,
1) Condition is marked as Active.
2) In the block "Evaluate condition below for" you will have to select "All characteristics in drilldown Independently". If you have selected combination of characteristics then you will have to maintain proper sequence otherwise your condition will not work.
3) In the next block when you set the condition, click on new, in the first block select your Formula from dropdown and set the proper operator in your case you will have to select "Greater than" in the next column set the value of key figure and just trasnfer it.
Now you are ready to use the condition.
Regards,
Durgesh.

Problem with Queries Structures in Bex Query Designer and Universe Designer

Hi everyone,
I have a problem when i try to do a Universe from a Bex Query Designer.
When I use a Characteristic Restrictions in a Structure, the universe only show me the structure without the objects inside it.
EJ:
1) Bex Query Designer
Colunms
(Structure) ZSRT_123
                      - (Characteristic Restrictions) Reg Guayana
>          (InfoObject)     0Product = 'XXX'
>          (InfoObject)     0Country = 'YYY'
     - (Characteristic Restrictions) Reg Caracas
>          (InfoObject)     0Product = 'AAA'
>          (InfoObject)     0Country = 'BBB'
Rows
(Structure) ZSRT_456
               (Key Figure)     Net Sales
2) Universe designer
(Class) ZSRT_456
>(Measure)      Net Sale
(Class)     ZSRT_123
>(Dimension)      ZSRT_123
The universe dont translate the two Characteristic Restrictions in the structure ZSRT_123.
Any information would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
I assume that you are using BOE XI 3.1 SP2.
We have added an option in SP2 to generate or not the L00 level.
Unfortunately this option applies not only on characteristics but also on hierarchies, hierarchies variables and structures: that's the reason why you have no elements belonging to the structure generated.
I recommend to always generate L00 in order to have your structure generated correctly.
This issue will be fixed in SP3.

Didier

Condition (Defintion) in BEX Query Designer

Hi Experts,
I am trying to define a condition in BEX Query Designer.
I defined my condition and bit confused with Characterstic Assignment
What Happens if is select 9What is the difference)
1) All Characterstic in the Drilldown Independtly
2)Most Detailed Characterstic Along the Rows
3)Most Detailed Characterstic Along Columns and
4)Individual Chars and Chars.Combinations
Thanks

Hi,
● All Characteristics in the Drilldown Independently
This setting allows you to apply a condition in a general way. Depending on which characteristics you use in the drilldown, you obtain different results.
Note that the characteristics that are already used in an active condition for characteristic combinations are not included.
This option is optimized for ranked list conditions, but can also be used for threshold value conditions with relative values.
●Most Detailed Characteristic Along the Rows or Columns
This option is optimized for threshold value conditions. The condition is applied to the most detailed characteristic of the rows or columns.
Note that this function is not supported when executing the query in the BEx Analyzer. For more information, see Restrictions in the BEx Analyzer.
● Single Characteristics and Characteristic Combinations
This setting allows you to evaluate the condition for characteristics or characteristic combinations defined for specific drilldowns only. You can select any characteristic (of the characteristics used in the query in rows, columns, or in the free characteristics) or a characteristic combination.
○ If you only want to evaluate the condition when a certain characteristic is present in the drilldown, select this characteristic.
○ If you want to evaluate the condition for characteristic combinations, select multiple characteristics.
