BW 3.5, BEx Query designer issue with text of the characteristics

Hi All,
We are currently using BEx 3.5 Query Designer to design the queries. We have one of the ODS on which we are querying for.
We have 3 different types of Customer in this ODS. 0Customer, 0BBP_CUSTOMER and 0GN_CUSTOMER. The problem is when we open this ODS in Query designer we see their text name on the left hand side column where it shows data fields as the same text name Customer.
Now the our Power users have raised the issue that it is very confusing even when there are 3 different technical names for these characteristics.
2 Questions I have.
1) Why is something like this happening? is it some issue with the Patch or something. We will be migrating to new BI soon but in the mean time if I could resolve it that will be the best. Or does it even get resolved with new BI???
2) what is the way in which we can resolve it?
Thanks in advance and points will be given generously.

HI BI Consul!
Things like this happen, when it is called customer it could be different customers, 0customer is the standard R/3 customer and 0BBP_customer is objects from CRM and most likely 0GN_Customer might be customer from different system.
Sure, power users should be told which customer is customer and you could also change the discription of the object, to match the definition on the other system. You could also just create z object and replace the existing confusing object with something meaningful to users.
thanks.

IF and ABS condition statement in BEX query designer

Hi,
I would like to ask the best way for me to produce an acceptable result from Excel IF and ABS Condition statement.
The condition statement that I have on my Excel file is

I'm trying multiple times to reproduce this in BEX Query designer, unfortunately I'm getting a bad result or unacceptable formula.
Anyone who could help me with my issue?
Thanks,

New ratio doesn't appear in Bex Query designer

Hello Experts,
I added 2 ratios to my infocube. It activated without any problem. I then added these 2 ratios to my multiprovider and activated it after affecting them to the previous infocube.
Then I connected to the Bex query designer and loaded a report in order to add these ratios, but there are not available for selection in the Ratio menu of the multiprovider.
Has anyone faced this problem?
Thanks

Try reactivating the Multiprovider again and see if that works !
I had this issue earlier, where I couldn't see two of the newly added characteristics in the multiprovider. But simply reactivating the multiprovider solved my issue.

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.

Values Bifurcation in BEx Query Designer

Dear BI Gurus,
In a column we are getting both positive value and -ve value. We want to bifurcate the values and show only +ve value in one column and show -ve value in another column. Is it possible through Bex query designer?
Please through some light on this issue.
With Regards,
Balachander.S

Hi bala,
This can be achieved by creating two calculated Key figures, Just use else if condition in the formula and use if KF1=KF>0 then KF else 0, here all the positive values will be displayed similarly use if KF2=KF<0 then KF Else 0 it will display all the negative values. But here all the values will be displayed. Just hide the Key figure and display only calculated keyfigures. Else you can use exceptions to differentiate the positive and negative values.
Hope this helps.....

In BI Bex Query Designer output, dont want to have unit at column Heading..

Hi
I have a BI Bex Query Designer report showing output with Qty unit at Column Heading level. Even in KF's Text i didn't mention unit. I want unit to appear to column fields instead of column heading. Pls let me know how to do that.
One more thing is: i have 2 reports exactly same except due date range is different. first report showing unit for each KF at the column heading level and for 2nd report showing column fields level... Surprising. Pls let me know what is the reason and how to control it.
Thanks...

Hi Harpal,
Key figures can have scaling factors and units/currencies. Normally, units/currencies are displayed for every key figure, but not the scaling factors. If you activate the Display Scaling Factors for Key Figures, an additional header row is added to the row or column header. Information about the scaling factor and currency/unit appears in this additional header row, as long as it is consistent (for example, 1,000 EURO).

Giving Error while opening BEx Query Designer.

Hi all,
               A user is trying to open BEx Query Designer 7.0 and she is getting this error
" SAP BEx Query Designer standalone has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
If you were middle of something, the information you are working on might be lost. "
She is not having issues while opening BEx Analyzer. She is having Office 2010. This doesn't seem to be compatibility issue with the Office. This BEx was not installed on her machine 2 weeks back and it was working fine until now.
As a first re-solution i told her to get it re-installed but still she is getting the same issue.
Thanx.

Hello,
There is no relation between Office VS Query Designer. Only with BEx Analyzer and MS Excel.
My suggestion is.
If you don't have version 7.20 of SAPGUI and Business Explorer, please download the installer.
After that, download the latest patch available and install:
http://service.sap.com/swdc
> Support Packages and Patches
> Browse our Download Catalog
> SAP Frontend Components
> SAP GUI FOR WINDOWS
> SAP GUI FOR WINDOWS 7.20 CORE
> Win32

If persist, let me know.

BEx Query Designer Opening Problem

Hi Guys,
I am working on BI 7.0. My system OS is Windows XP. When i try to open Query Designer it showing an as below.
Component 'BEx Query Designer': available version 154, version 229 required.
Before you can continue you have to run the front-end setup.
please let me know to resolve this issue.
Thanks
Murali

Hi Murali,
To make sure it works, you should make sure that:
When you installed the SAP GUI, you have checked the BI option (in addition to the BW option)
Install the latest front end patch (BI patch 7) from SAP Marketplace
I highly recommand to also install the BI SP07 patch for the server - it adds lots of stability for the front end.
It works pretty well for us, I am sure you will also eventually make it work
hope this solves ur problem....

Execution of BEx Query Designer Querys in BI Java SDK

Hello experts,
i am actually occupying with the possibilities of the BI Java SDK. I checked the documentation but could not find an answer to my question, so i address this issue now to the community in the hope, that someone out there can give me a hint:
Is it possible to execute a BI query, which was designed in the BEx query designer, within the BI Java SDK OLAP query api?
Is there somewhere a method, which could be simply passed the technical names of the infocube and the query and then returns the query result as a IBIResultSet or IBIDataSet?
Thanks in advance for your help,
best regards,
Thilo

Hello Mohan,
thanks for this impression - thats a way i didn't think about at all before. I even think, that it is not necessary to publish the query as iview - it would suffice to invoke the BEx-AdHoc-Analysis Service via a HttpConnection-Object within a servlet and then parse the result delivered by the BEx service. You won't even need BI Java SDK for this, since this is plain Java functionality.
But as i see there seems to exist no BI Java SDK-"generic" possibility to invoke an existing query as i see....
If anybody has got another idea, it is very welcome. But i think i will investigate on the approach with the native HTTP call to AdHoc Service.
Thanks anyway & best regards,
Thilo

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.
Jacques

Hi Jacques,
that is a known issue in the toolbar of Crystal Reports.
You can start the Query Designer 3.5 / 7.0 from the BEx menu item

Unable to run query from BEx query designer

Hello,
I am connecting remotely to clients environment. I am not able to run query from Bex query designer. System generates IE window with URL
http://server.com:50300/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?QUERY=ZCOPCM02_Q017&VARIABLE_SCREEN=X&DUMMY=9
but query result isnt shown.
Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage.
What kind of setting do I need to change to get query working?
thanks

Hi Comandante,
If you are not able to Execute the Query using Query designer, you can also execute the query using RRMX or RSRT transaction for now until the issue with the query designer is solved ..
Hope it helps!
