Log into Discoverer Plus, cancel through the Create Workbook page and then choose Tools/Options, EUL tab and ensure that you are connecting to the correct EUL.
Also, in Disco Admin, ensure you have granted the Disco Plus logon account access to the Business area.

Discoverer PLUS EUL not accessible

Hi guys & girls,
This is my issue:
With Discoverer Admin I've created an EUL and a Business Area and I granted the right privilges to a user XXX. When I launch Discoverer Desktop, I connect as user XXX and I can see that I have access to that Business Area. When I launch Discoverer Plus, I create a connection but I do not see the EUL that I've created, so I can not choose it for the connection.
Anyone an idea?
Christophe

I found the problem...
On my laptop, I have a Discoverer Admin. 10g installation, connected upon a 9i db and created my EUL. Created a Business Area and gave the correct privs/security to my user xxx. When a started Disco Plus and created a private connection, I did not see my EUL appearing in the list of values. Solution: I used a discoverer Admin 9i version, connected upon the 9i db, created the EUL, created a Business Area and gave the correct privs/security to user xxx. Then I reconnected via my Discoverer Admin 10g to that EUL, did the upgrade (forced to do it) and then everything worked out fine. So the trouble is/was, that I was working with two different versions of Discoverer..
Thanx anyway Rod

Controlling access of Plus users to other Business Areas

We are starting to roll out Discoverer Plus/Viewer on our campus. The following scenario concerns us. We give the Registrar the create/edit query privilege in the administrator, and he works in the REGISTRAR business area. The HR director, who works in the HR business area, decides to build a workbook with a nice report about student employees which she shares with the Registrar. Since the create/edit privilege seems to be associated with the user (Registrar), when he opens the workbook he also has access to the rest of the HR business area, by creating a new sheet and grabbing items from anywhere in the HR business area.
We had hoped to have something that worked more like this. Power users could create interesting workbooks and share them across campus to folks in other areas, and only be sharing the contents of the sheets themselves. It appears that they would also be sharing their entire business area with any other Power User (someone with create/edit query privilege). In other words, we want some users to be Power Users in their own business area and just a Viewer in any other BA.
Are we missing something? If not, then why isn't the create/edit query privilege associated with a business area? How can an organization with multiple business areas use the workbook sharing facility without compromising BA data?
Thanks.

Hi CDA
You're not understanding the way Discoverer works. The lowest level of security control that can be applied inside Discoverer is at the business area level. Thus if a user has access to any part of a business area then they have access to the whole business area. This is done by your administrator using TOOLS | SECURITY from the Administration menu bar.
The privileges that can be set using TOOLS | PRIVILEGES control what a user can do with the data that they have access to (remember that access itself is at the business area). Thus if a user has the Create / Edit workbook privilege and they have access to two business areas then they have that privilege for both business areas and create or edit workbooks to their heart's content in both of them.
Further, and I think this is where you may be getting confused, you have to understand that an end user cannot grant the privilege for another end user to have access to their business area simply by sharing a workbook. The act of sharing a workbook does not share the access rights. In order for one user, aka the Registrar, to be able to run a workbook that was created by another user, aka the HR director), the Registrar must already have been granted access to the HR business areas by the Discoverer administrator. If a user does not have access to a business area but does have access to a workbook from that business area then they will not be able to execute the workbook.
It therefore sounds like you do not have security under control.
Best wishes
Michael
BTW: Are you using the SunGard Banner system by any chance, and are you using the ODS? If this is the case, you may be interested in knowing that my company has partnered with SunGard Higher Education to bring Discoverer training and consulting to their customers.

GR/IR Automatic Clearing for Different Business areas items

Hello All,
we have different business areas, and some times we create a PO for all business areas and invoice it in a specific business area
in F.13 automatic clearing:
for GR/IR account
Documents with different business area cannot be cleared.
any idea to solve this issue is appreciated,

Thanks for your reply,
I've tried such a solution with more parameters ( EBELN, XREF3 and EBELP)
but in F.13 :
- the document cannot be cleared when >>> selecting GR/IR account special process.
if we treat GR account as a normal GL account, I mean without selecting GR/IR account special process.
the document can be clear
i want to be able to clear the document with selecting GR/IR field ( is it possible )
and if it is not allowed, do we will face a problem by clearing GR account without selecting GR/IR parameter ??
Many Thanks

CAN NOT IMPORT BUSINESS AREA AS IT SAYS - JOINS NOT FOUND WHERE REQUIRED

We have recently migrated from Disco 4.1.48.08 to 10.1.2
Everything looks ok - we are able to look at existing workbooks and business areas. And we can export business areas successfully.
However
When we try to import some business areas it returns - JOINS NOT FOUND WHERE REQUIRED and fails. This is now causing a problem with how we promote from our test/uat and prod environments.
any ideas ?

Here's some information from Support that helped me...
Discoverer has many options on exporting and importing objects. Entire End User Layers, Entire Business Areas or only selected objects could be exported. To simplify the process of exporting and importing Business Areas, it is suggested that the export and import process should be done with entire Business Areas. The reason why it is not recommended that selected objects are exported and imported as a norm is to simplify maintenance.
It is still possible to export and import selected objects, but a knowledgeable Administrator is recommended to head the procedure. The process could get
very complex and difficult to manage.
Some Additional Notes:
- Join conditions are exported, but are not indicated as an object. Join conditions are only exported ** if ** the joining folders are exported.
- If the ‘refresh’ option is performed in Discoverer Administrator on an object and the underlying object on the database is not available, the object is dropped from the EUL. It is of utmost importance that the objects exist on the underlying database before the ‘refresh’ option is executed.
- Functions and Workbooks are not exported when exporting an entire Business Area. Functions and Workbooks have to be exported separately.
The first bullet is what was giving me this error "JOINS NOT FOUND WHERE REQUIRED". I was unable to do a full export - another unrelated error, so I came up with an alternate solution. I created a new BA that only contained the standard folders that my two custom BA's referenced - by JOINS and inclusion in my complex folders. I exported all 3 and they imported into the new instance with no issue.

S_ALR_87012093 (Vendor) e S_ALR_87012186 (Customer) x Business Area

Hi,
I executed the standards reports: S_ALR_87012093 (Vendor business) and
S_ALR_87012186 (Customer Sales), in the first screen in "Hide Dinamic
Selection" I put "Business Area", but when the reports ran, nothing
filter by business area was consider.
For example:
Vendor 123
Business Area (BA)= 0050 > Balance = 120,00
Business Area (BA)= 0070 > Balance = 250,00
I try to filter by BA = 0050 (120,00), but the total of the report show
me the total of the both BA = 370,00.
Thanks.
Soraia

Hi Soraia,
Unfortunately, selection by business area for S_ALR_87012172 is not possible.
Please review note 50370 for more details on system's design.
The dynamic selection for business area does not work for reports which use customer / vendor transaction tables (KNC1 LFC1), i.e., business area is not stored in transaction tables.
The reports that read indexes (better performance) do not read GSBER as this info is contained in the cluster BSEG. The dynamic selections are available cause this is a mask using for developing all reports no matter if they will read the indexes or the cluster.
Dynamic selections can only be used with customer / vendor, company code or fiscal year fields. The following reports are affected by this program design, i.e., business area cannot be used in dynamic
selection criteria:
S_ALR_87012082 - Vendor Balances in Local Currency
S_ALR_87012093 - Vendor Business
S_ALR_87012079 - Transaction Figures: Account Balance
S_ALR_87012080 - Transaction Figures: Special Sales
S_ALR_87012081 - Transaction Figures: Sales
S_ALR_87012105 - List of Down Payments open at Key Date - Vendors
S_ALR_87012172 - Customer balances in local currency
S_ALR_87012186 - Customer sales
RFKSLD00 - F.42
RFDSLD00 - F.23
I regret not giving you a more positive answer

Business Area wise Vendor & Customer Line item report

Hi
We are on SAP ECC 6. Can I get Business Area wise Vendor & Customer Line item report (as like FBL1N)
Regards
Debojyoti

Hi,
In FBL1N in dynamic selections you can give the business area as the selection parameter otherwise after execution of report with the help of layout you can set filters for business area.
Go to FAGLB03 give the vendor or customer reconciliation account along with business area. So after you execute the report you can choose vendor code and business area.
Check once it may help you

Business Area Prerequisite

Hi Guru's,
My Client requried activation of Business area and new Plant as well and they are not using profit center Version 4.6b
1. What all prerequisite to be taken care for activation of Business Area in an existing company code.
2. If i activate business area wise balance sheet is there any impact on existing data or all existing cost center will ask business area while posting
3. Client requried only P & L - Do we need to activate business area balance sheet for this ?
Expecting experienced guidance.
Thanks in Advance - Kumar

Hi,
It is impossible to predict exactly system behaviour for each individual customer system after activation of Business Area, but the best time to activate business area is at the creation of a new financial year. It is extremely difficult to add business
area after postings to a cost center in the middle of a fiscal year.
After activating the Business area financial statement in OB65, you have to make sure that all CO objects where a business area can be entered, have the correct one. These are for example the cost centers (ks03) and the orders (ko03).
After activating the Business area financial statement in OB65, an entry in the table RF048 will be created for every document posted. The program SAPF180A/SAPF180 will process only the documents that have an entry in this table.
Also if the balance for business areas is activated, the order necessarily requires an entry for the business area - how else
could the data for the balance be collected or traced - and the business area is a required field. If on the other hand an order
carries costs, the business area cannot be changed because e.g. CO-documents without or with another business area already exist connected with this order.
As of the standard there is no tool to make the BA assignement to documents which have already been posted. The indicator "Business Area Fin Statement" has consequences not only in FI but also in CO, MM and SD.

Can I add a New Folder to existing Business Area with Command Line?

Hi,
Can I add a New Folder to existing Business Area with Command Line in Discoverer (java or executable)? I am trying to do this with /load...
/connect walkep_apps/walkep@smpdev1
/load Visualizations /eul walkep_apps /user smp_naps_apps /object VISUAL_20K /capitalize /remove_prefix /insert_blanks
/aggregate DETAIL /show_progress
... but this creates a new business area, "Visualizations 1", which is not what we want! We want to add the VISUAL_20K to the existing "Visualizations" business area. Many thanks in advance.
