Broadcast in BEX Analyzer

We are running on BI 7.0 SP10.
Bex Analyzer 7.0 is running and dashboards are usings.
Is it possible to broadcast BEX Analyzer reports within dashboard

You can Broadcast BEx Analyzer Workbooks, for this you need BEx Precalculation Server installed.
Check out the How to Doc from Prakash for details.

  • Bex broadcaster in bex analyzer

    Dear all,
    I have created a report in bex analyzer. I want to add this report to portal, therefore  i need to select bex broadcasting from excel bex analyzer menu.
    My questions are as follows:
    1) As i read in document, i can put analyzer reports in portal. Is it correct?
    2) In excel bex analyzer menu, my bex broadcaster menu item is in display mode. Why can it be like this?
    Thanks

    You can directly add the BEx query to the portal. While creating iview there is an option for BEx query also. Just select your query there and you can access this query through portal. For that Broadcaster option present in BEx analyzer I m still searching how to use it.

  • BEx Broadcaster is disabled in BEx Analyzer

    Dear all,
    The BEx Broadcaster function in the BEx Analyzer is disabled. It works fine in the Query Designer. Is there any one know how to enable it or is there any configuration that I should do?

    Look into the SAP Help.
    "The Broadcaster option is only visible when a workbook is open. If you only open a query in the BEx Analyzer, this broadcasting option is not available."

  • Broadcasting in EXCEL export to PDF, Bex Analyzer

    Hi!
    The user wants to export the Bex Analyzer Workbook (excel) to PDF... HOW CAN I DO IT???
    Thanks a lot...

    Hi Leticia,
    Here's are some things you can do with Broadcaster...
    1.  Broadcast a workbook from BEx Analyzer (must have Precalc Server set up for this).   You cannot Broadcast in .pdf format from an Excel workbook.  There will be no option in Broadcaster for that.
    2.  Broadcast a .pdf from Report Designer where your Excel query needs to be highly formatted.  Create the Enterprise (RD) report first from your query, then you can Broadcast from there.
    3.  Broadcast a .pdf from Query Designer.  Open the query and create a Broadcast Setting from the query itself and select .pdf as the format.  The only difference between this and #2 above is that the .pdf won't be so nicely formatted as the Report Designer version of the query.  However, you don't have to go to the trouble of creating the Enterprise (RD) version of the report using this option.
    4.  Broadcast a .pdf from a Web Template.  You could publish the query to the Web and then create the Broadcast setting from the Web Template and select .pdf as the format.
    5.  Also Broadcast in other formats (i.e. Excel (XML), Portal, etc.) from Query Designer, etc.
    The best looking (nicest format) .pdf would be Broadcast from a Report Designer version of the Query.  The nicest Excel version would be from a Workbook within BEx Analyzer (where it would be Broadcast exactly the way it looks in BEx).  But, per my comments above, you have other options.  These of course are not every option but only pertain to your question about Broadcasting as a .pdf.
    Hope this helps!

  • Using Variants Created in BEx Analyzer in BEx Broadcaster

    We are experiencing an issue where variants created in BEx Analyzer are not available to be selected in BEx Broadcasting.
    What we are trying to achieve is when we have a Variant that is created in BEx Analyzer, we want to use the same variant in our BEx Broadcaster, which is found under the Tab General Precalculation and the option Determine from Variants.
    For some background, we are on NW04S Patch 9 with BEx Front End 3.5 Patch 10.
    Does anyone have any inisight on this issue?
    Thanks.

    Please disregard question.

  • BEx Analyzer: BEx Broadcaster Option Greyed out

    Hi Folks,
    We are currently running SAP NW7.0 Enhancement Pack 1.
    In BEx Analyzer, I have a query view saved from a query. I want to perform information broadcasting using this query view via BEx Analyzer, but the "BEx Broadcaster" option is unavailable, i.e., greyed out.
    How do I resolve this?
    I have found a workaround which is to open the main query from Query Designer, and then clicking Publish to get the web interface of information broadcasting to open up, and then selecting Query View and clicking Open to open my query view.
    But I would still like to know how to open the BEx Broadcaster directly from BEx Analyzer.
    Please advise, and thanks in advance!

    Hello,
    Dennis suggestion should works.
    You have to be in mind, if you are using BEx Analyzer 7.0 you MUST have be installed the BI Java, otherwise the Broadcastwill not works.
    If you have it, execute the note 937697 and fix ALL red marks. Probably this is a communication issue between ABAP and Java side.
    Thanks.

  • Difference between bexbrowser and Bex analyzer

    Hi,
       can any body tell me  what is the difference between bex browser and bex analyzer  and how end users will access the reports and how they access SAP.

    Hi
    *BEx Web Analyzer *
    The BEx Web Analyzer is a standalone, convenient Web application for data analysis that you can call using a URL or as an iView in the portal.
    The Web Analyzer allows you to execute ad hoc analyses on the Web: When you have selected a data provider (query, query view, InfoProvider, external data source), the data is displayed in a table with a navigation pane. You can navigate to the data and use other Web Analyzer functions available in the application toolbar. For example, you can change the type of data display, use the information broadcasting functions to broadcast your analyses to others, and create printable versions of your analyses.
    In the Web Analyzer, you can save the data view generated from navigation and analysis as a query view by choosing Save View in the context menu, and you can save the ad hoc analysis by choosing Save As. When the query view is saved, only the data view is saved; when the ad hoc analysis is saved, the entire Web application is saved, including the properties of Web items and the layout of the data.

  • Difference between Bex Analyzer and Bex WAD

    Hi Every one,
    I am pretty new to SAP, and working on SAP BW Front end.
    I am pretty aware of Bex Analyzer and also Browser, but i always have a doubt about Bex WAD.
    In my present job i talk to the users and take the requirments and create queries in the Bex analyzer which i am comfortable doing it.
    I also know all the features of Analyzer and created quries and also published it on web, and also created workbooks and inserting multiple quries in the workbook etc etc..
    However i have zero knowledge on WAD and how it is useful to me, and as if now i haven't got any requirment from the client for me to create any report in WAD or do some thing in WAD.
    I have gone through SAP SDN help etc but i am not understanding it at all.
    So can any one explain me in a laymans terms what WAD is and how it will be useful to me?
    and also if possible send me link which has got PDF screen shots of what WAD is?
    Points is for sure.
    Regards,
    Ram

    Raj,
    Thanks for the reply, but i still did not get the understanding about WAD. i have studied the link which you sent me.
    I am still not able to understand how it is helpful for people like me,
    See i create my report in Query designer, and i can execute the query in Analyser. and if i want i can execute it in the Web from my query designer, and also i can create chart on the web if i want.And i can Broadcaste it in the Web.
    and also if i want i can create it in the workbook and create chart in that work book.
    Then what is the point of Web Application Designer (WAD).
    See i have created the Query in Designer in Development say Sales report Query on the infoprovider for SD, now what should i do with it in WAD.
    How can i get it in WAD, i went to start> all Programs>Bex> WAD and i logged in to development and a sereen opend. And from here what i can do, i mean how can i open my created query in WAD?
    As you guys know i am new to SAP itself, but i dont see any advantage about WAD, i read all the articals and there i found that i can create Web Items, HTML etc etc, but i already have HTML, when i execute my query from the Designer i get it in Web Browser...
    See my question is simple, i have a query which i have created in the Query Designer, now how can i get it to WAD and after getting it what can i do with it??
    If any one has a screen shots of there pls send me.
    And Sanjeev has sent me a PDF which i saw earlear and i done the same in my WAD but i am not about to get it to work.
    I have given the points to every one but still what i need i did not get yet.
    Regards,
    Ram

  • Creating graphs/charts in BEx Analyzer - BI 7.0

    There is no design item for creating graphs / charts in BEx analyzer. We don't have web server/portal.
    There is a chart button in default workbook, which switches table/charts views.
    How do I create charts in custom workbook.
    Also, how do I do precalculation of workbook w/o Broadcaster.

  • Variable assignment "Create" link opens up BEx Analyzer

    In a portal environment we're testing with, we are running into an unusual issue:
    In BEx Broadcaster, We open up a setting created for a particular query.  In the General Precalculation tab we are trying to create a variable assignment (Select VAR_01 from dropdown menu -->Create "link"), but when we click on the "Create" link, we're getting the BEx Analyzer instead of the variable screen for that query (doesn't work for any query, but for workbook settings, it works fine).  The following has been checked:
    ms/redirect_version is set to 1
    BI Support Desk tool is all GREEN
    Assertion ticket setup is correct (at least I think it is)
    I can also pull up Information Broadcasting directly from the backend system (sap/bw/Bex) and the variable screen comes up okay.
    Any ideas of some setting we're missing in the portal/backend?   Thanks for any help.
    (We're using NW SP 17 with BI-Java 17/23...BI Backend is NW SPS16)

    UPDATE:  fixed by updating support pack to BI JAva 18 (from 17/23).  The solution doesn't make much sense, but we've learned to just accept these sort of things in faith

  • BEx Analyzer workbook

    Hello,
    I am currently working on creating cost centre reports which should be sent out to cost centre managers on a monthly basis.
    For example: The cost centre report for the cost centre named ABC should be sent out to ABCu2019s manager every month.
    I created a BEx query and mapped it to a workbook in BEx Analyzer. There are around 300 cost centres and what I did is, created a selection variable for cost centre n the workbook. So the cost centre managers can input their cost centre to see the report.
    My concerns are:
    a) Since I have put a selection variable for cost centre, anyone can view the report. For instance, cost centre report for cost centre XYZ can be viewed by cost centre manager of ABC. How do we restrict the cost centres to their respective cost centre managers?
    For example, Cost centre report for Cost centre XYZ can only be viewed by its respective cost manager. No other cost centre managers should see it. How do we do this in Analyzer workbook?
    b) Which is the best way to distribute this report?
    We currently use a SharePoint website to share documents. If we upload the workbook to the SharePoint site, my understanding is that the user will have to open the workbook in BEx Analyzer to view the report. The users have to be trained to do it in this case and all of them do not have BEx Analyzer at the moment. So I guess uploading it to the SharePoint site is not a practical idea.
    Please reply with your solutions
    Thanks in advance

    Hello Suriya Gayathri,
    Does not seem that you went through the broadcaster bursting functionality.
    In short:
    * You an create a broadcasting setting of type bursting.
    * use a infoobject which consists all 300 users and their mail.
    * use a authorisation variable in the query that relates to their respective costcenter.
    * execute the 'broadcasting setting', it will send a excelfile attached in the mail to these users.
    (Of course you need to set a precalculation server which does all the generation of the excelfile)
    Have a look in detail about broadcaster and precalculation server.

  • Bex Analyzer Workbook Refresh - How to prevent take over of desktop

    Hi there,
    I believe the answer to this queston will be use bex broadcaster but I will try and see if someone has any other experience.
    One of our upper mgmt directors is frustrated because when he refreshes the bex analyzer workbooks, the refresh takes over his desktop.
    He will kick off the refresh and then wants to go to another task - Like checking something on AS400 screen - or going to check his email - or working in word.
    The refresh of the workbook is long running and has several queries to refresh so it monopolizes his desktop.
    He will go to the other screens but bex refresh keeps popping up and taking over.
    I do not know any other way to have it run in the background unless bex broadcaster is used.  Unfortunately, we are in the process of getting that upgraded and it is not available at this time.
    Does anyone have any experience with having the excel refresh run in the background?
    Thank you,
    Lynda

    reporting agent will be helpful in caching the report...this article will explain you on the steps to do so

    reporting agent has been replaced by information broadcasting in BI 7.0, you can try this out by going to rsa1old and caching the report.

  • BEX Analyzer 3.5 Expired Certificate / Digital Signature

    Hey Everyone,
    Are any of you experiencing this? Expired Digital Signature issue for BEX Analyzer (sapbex.xla).
    We are on SAP GUI 7.10 patch 8, and BEX 3.5 Add-On patch 4. When users
    go to launch the BEX Anlayzer or open broadcasted reports, they get an
    error saying Digital Signature is Invalid or has Expired.
    This is because of the certificate that is provided with SAPBEX.XLA, expired on 3/6/09.
    I looked into relavent notes 492364, and 929716 which come with older certificates. We do not want to enable macros completely.
    Thanks!
    Imran

    Hi Imran,
    After Opening your Bex analyzer or in Excel
    Excel goto -- tools macrosecurity--Security level Tab --choose *Medium* option after setting this open your bex analyzer again you will get a pop up for *enable or disable macros* you can choose disable macros,
    now you will be able to open the Bex analyzer and run queries
    IF you are not still able to use or if you dont want *enable macro / disable macro* pop up then use
    this setting,
    Excel goto -- tools macrosecurity--Security level Tab -- choose Low option
    you will not get any pop ups and you will get the select query option.
    Hope this solve your issue.
