BEx Query designer : Run-time error '457'

Hey,
We installed the standard query's for HR.  When we try to change the query 'Average age of employees', and we try to restrict on 'Calender year/month' then we receive this error. 
Run-time error '457' : This key is already associated with an element of this collection.
We're using version 3.50.
I already saw oss note 517232 but that was for version 2.0 and not intresting for my case...  Anybody any idea? 
Kind regards,
Tom

Hi,
Check this conditions as I haven't checked the queries ......make sure that these two conditions are not getting into picture after you make the changes to the query.
1) When we are making restricted key figures we can’t use same variable to restrict to two different Characteristics in the same RKF.
2)Once a Variable used to restrict a characteristic in one RKF you cannot use it to restrict it other characteristic in other key figures i.e.  You can use it to restrict that particular characteristic only in other key figures.
Hope it helps
Thanks

  • Run time Error 457

    Hi,
    We upgraded to BI 7.0, after upgrade the query is executing fine but while restricting a time characteristic the query throws an error "Run Time Error 457, this key is already associated with an element of this collection". This happens only in the production server, the query is working fine on development and test servers. When i try to access the variable associated with the time characteristic thru query designer the query designer window gets blocked displaying the same above message. I guess the error is related to Visual Basic of MS Office.
    Please let me know  the procedure for resolving the issue.
    Thank you

  • Bex Query Designer running against a Cognos Cube

    Hi
    Is it possible to run Bex Query Designer against a Cognos cube ? I know you can do it the other way around - run Cognos against a BW cube. But I can't find anything on creating Bex Query on a Cognos cube. 
    John

    Hi John,
    I think that's not possible. I've never seen that, there is no information about it anywhere.
    But, why would you like to connect BEx to another tool? As you said, you can connect Cognos to BW (as well as Microstrategy, Business Objects and ohters). And this is because all these tools are better in front end desing (even after BI7, i think BEx reporting tools are awful).

  • SAP Gui 6.40 BeX Analyser problem (Run Time Error)

    Dear All
    Really need some help
    We get the following error in EXCEL 2003 when running transaction rrmx from SAP easy access:
    Run time error 91 Object variable or with block variable not set
    When debugging we get the following error message:
    call pAddin.SetConnectionFromHandle(p_connectionObj).
    We've rolled out the same package globally to all our users, some machines have this problem and some don't - which has been making this very difficult to resolve and troubleshoot.
    We've tried patch level 29 of the GUI and this did not resolve.
    I've read lots of threads relating to the .net framework and made sure all the service packs are installed, and also tried .net framework 2.0 and 3.0 - the problem still existed with both.
    I'm really stuck and appreciate any guidance.
    If we manually launch Analyzer (SAP BW 3.x) from the start menu, EXCEL and the BW add-in works fine... we only get the run time error when using transaction rrmx from SAP GUI.
    Please help!
    Thanks.

    OK, so I've done the following - which DID work and i no longer get the RUN TIME error:
    -uninstalled SAPGUI
    -uninstalled Office 2003
    -uninstalled all .net framework versions + updates.
    -install .net framework 2.0 with SP1
    -install microsoft office 2003 + SP3
    install sap gui 6.40 + patch level 29
    However, if anyone out there has got an easier and quicker solution to this problem I'd REALLY appreciate it. I have got lots of our users with this problem and it took a long time to complete all the steps above.. there must be something easier to do to fix this...
    thanks for your help

  • Dashboard to BEx query call run time very slow (7-8 mins)

    Hi Guys,
    I am currently working on a project where BEx query is being consumed using BICS. The functional team has built a BEx which is being cached in Webi by the BO developer and then that cashed Webi is being used in Dashboard. We have many hierarchies (Fund Center, Profit Center, GL Account etc.) used in the dashboard.
    BEx query > WEBi (Cached) > Dashboard
    Clicking the main level in hierarchy in dashboard the data comes back in 2-3 secs as the data is cached in Webi
    ISSUE: In Dashboard based on where user is on the Fund Center hierarchy there is a button called “Summary Report” on the dashboard which calls the BEx query and that second call takes roughly about 7-8 minutes. How could we reduce the run time of the second query?
    The secondary query uses the same data set as the first one but as the data is cached in Webi and it uses Web services to pass data to dashboard, so any call back from dashboard to the cached webi the hierarchy information is lost  and thus the secondary query call to BEx query.
    Would it be possible to recommend any solution where we could bring the run time of the secondary call to less than a minute?
    Thanks,
    Keys

  • Query giving run time error.

    Hi BW Experts,
    Here goes my question :
    There is a query which is giving runtime error as time limit exceeded. This query is based on an infoset which is based on 4 ODS's.
    Is there any way we can do performance tuning for this query?
    Many Thanks in advance,
    Sudip.

    Hi Ganesh,
    Thanks for your help.
    Can you please tell me which option to select for the infoset query as i'm seeing a lot of options on the left hand side of the screen like master Data, Transaction data, ODS objects,PSA tables etc for the RSRV transaction?
    Also to add-on from my first post...this particular query is executing for an hour after which the error message comes an "System Failue, Time limit exceeded".
    Regards,

  • Run-Time Error '6' Overflow within BEx Analyzer after copy/paste query

    Hi all,
    User is getting a "Run-time error '6' overflow" message which is caused after copying any query in a 'query pack' to any free row/column within the same sheet (BEx Analyzer). This "query pack" has multiple queries within one sheet and covers 1800 rows so there is enough free space left for copying one of the queries to another position in the same sheet.
    Microsoft Office Excel SP2 is used which is part of MS Office professional edition 2003. The BW version is 3.0.
    Please let me know if more details are required or above mentioned error message is recognized and can be explained.
    Thanks and kind regards,
    Raymond Flaton

    Hi VRV,
      This error is caused whenever there is memory issue. If your query is built on a cube which has a BWA index then this problem can be related to the issue with the BWA server. Check your BASIS team to check if there is memory issue presently in the BWA server.
    Sometimes the issue is temporary, where the several users accesing the reports to fetch data from BWA lead to this type of error as the BWA gets overloaded. Try exiting the report and run it after some time again.
    Alternatively you can also try restricitng the selection for fetching the data in the report as suggested.
    Thanks
