BEx "Query transformation from BI7.0 to BI3.5
hi gurus,
we have developed our BEx query in BI 7.0.
but we have to change them from 7.0 compatible to 3.5 compatible.is there any provision to do that if it possible then please help me.
Hi Kumar,
I think there is no way to copy or save a new query created in 7.0 to 3.x.
But you can use Program COMPONENT_RESTORE to restore 3.x queries which were converted to 7.0 queries.
But there is one disadvantage of this program that this will not restore the changes that were made to the query after converting to 7.0.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Rk.

Constant Selection in BEx Query Designer on BI7
Hi guys
According to this blog <a href="/people/prakash.darji/blog/2006/09/19/the-hidden-secret-of-constant-selection Selection</a>, we can create constant selection on both Characteristics and Key figures. I understand how to do it with restricted key figures.
Can anyone give me a step by step guide on how to create constant selection for a Characteristic in BEx Query Designer on BI7. I can't find options for 'constant selection'
Or is this the same thing when you include or exclude values?

jimi ogunThanks Krishna
I am actually using a Multiprovider for my queries but business requirements mean I need to create joins.
I am trying to avoid Infosets and I believe another way is to use the Constant Selection feature in Query Designer.
Going back to my previous posting, I know how this is done with a restricted KF but I don't know how when it comes to characteristics.
Can anyone help? -
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.
JacquesHi 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

Publishing a BEx Query reports from BI Portal to Main portal
Hi,
We have 2 portals in out landscape.
BI system has its own portal and the main portal for the commercial users.
I have a requirement to bring BEx query Reports to Main portal.
I am wondering, how this can be done.
Thanks
SamHi vel,
1. You can connect BW/BI system with your portal.
2. Create BEx iview (7.0) from iview templates.
3. Then display report on portal.
Feel free to update me as per your findings.

BI BEX Query execution from ABAP into a File w/ Text
We are currently running BI 2004s and have a requirement from a user to load a file (preferably excel but a csv or txt file would also work) on a server with the results of a BEX Query and they need the format to look exactly like the Bex results including the columns for the char. text that are specified in the Bex query properties. If we could run this ABAP program in background and foreground - that would be a big plus.
I have searched and reviewed many of the FM, programs and transactions in this forum to do something like this but the text is always missing.
Any suggestions (the simpler the better) would be appreciated.
Thanks,
SJSudheer,
Yes, I did try RSCRM_BAPI. It looks very promising but the text is not there. Example - Business area 9160 shows up but the text for it "SAFLEX" does not and this text does show up in BEx. -

This is possible via customer exit.You can populate day on the bases of your date .
Try this :
WHEN 'tech name of exit var'.
data : v_day type c length 5 ,
v_day_val type c length 5.
IF i_step = 2.
READ TABLE i_t_var_range INTO LS_T_VAR_RANGE WITH KEY vnam = 'date_value u2019.
v_day = LS_T_VAR_RANGE-high+4(4).
concatenate v_day+2(2) '/' v_day(2) into v_day_val .
ls_range-low = v_day_val .
ls_range-opt = 'EQ'.
ls_range-sign = 'I'.
APPEND ls_range TO e_t_range.
Hope this will be helpful .

Bex Query designer withour Enterprise Portal?
Dear BW experts,
After launching the Bex Query designer with BI7 system. After designing query, If I click on execute (Ctrl+R). It is launching internet explorer with error "Invalid Syntax error - Page cannot be displayed"
It is launching the following URL
http:///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=ZCCQ20071048070001&VARIABLE_SCREEN=X&DUMMY=1
I think it is looking for Enteprise Portal server. I dont have an EP server.
What is the alternate way to execute this?
Thanks in Advance...Hello to all of you,
just to make sure that I do not missunderstand:
As far as I know in BW3.5 (without EP installed) you were able to execute a query directly out of the query designer and it was shown as a web-query.
Now I tried to do the same with a BI7-System the first time and I get the same symptom as Abdullah. We also do not have an EP installed on that system.
As solution, you all describe that I have to open the query in analyzer to see it in excel - OK - BUT if I do not want to see it in excel but as a webquery (like in my good old BW3.5) instead ? Isn't that possible anymore ???

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 AMHi 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)

BI7 : BRAIN 667 error when modifying a KF in BEX query
Hello,
When we modify a KF (standard or calculated) property in a Bex query, we have a Brain 667 error (Query handle xxxx is invalid . Message no. BRAIN667).
When it's run from the WAD, the error message is BRAIN 282.
Does any body know what's this about ?
Thanks;
MGHWe are already in SP9 and applied many notes related to SP10.
The fact is that we have a BW 3.5 (vers. 3500.11.051) Bex and not a BI7 Bex.
We have a BI7 with BW 3.x functionalities.

Need to remove prompts which is comes from Bex query
Dear Experts,
Currently i am working in webi report (4.0 SP2), Back end of this webi report is SAP Bex query, created by using BICS Connection. In bex query we have created different variables on Company code,vendor, business area, key date etc. from this company code and key date are mandatory variables.
My Bex users need input screen to execute the report as per their requirement. But my webi users don't required any prompts. they want to manipulate data by using input controls.
Req : How to avoid variables (Prompts) which is coming from bex?
Regards,
PRK.Hi Praveen,
As per my knowledge, We can not remove mandatory BEx variables from the Webi prompt screen. Value for mandatory Query Variable has to be pass from Webi report.
You can create another Bex Query without any variable and need to use for reporting in Webi.

Error while trying to retrieve data from BW BEx query
The following error is coming while trying to retrieve data from BW BEx query (on ODS) when the Characters are more than 50.
In BEx report there is a limitation but is it also a limitation in Webi report.
Is there any other solution for this scenario where it is possible to retrieve more than 50 Characters?
A database error occured. The database error text is: The MDX query SELECT { [Measures].[3OD1RJNV2ZXI7XOC4CY9VXLZI], [Measures].[3P71KBWTVNGY9JTZP9FTP6RZ4], [Measures].[3OEAEUW2WTYJRE2TOD6IOFJF4] } ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( [ZHOST_ID2].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, [ZHOST_ID3].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ), [ZHOST_ID1].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ), [ZREVENDDT__0CALDAY].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) ........................................................ failed to execute with the error Invalid MDX command with UNSUPPORTED: > 50 CHARACT.. (WIS 10901)Hi,
That warning / error message will be coming from the MDX interface on the BW server. It does not originate from BOBJ.
This question would be better asked to support component BW-BEX-OT-MDX

Degrade the java version to java 7 update 45 and also degrade the java security level to low from medium. Also delete the java temporary files and also clear your IE browser cache as well.
