Please give me your suggestions.

Hello Pravender
I'm facing the same kind of error with one workbook.
Did you manage to solve your issue ?
If so, I would be very interested to know how.

Hi Sree,
Check the status of the PreCalc server in RSPRECADMIN.
If it's in yellow status try to restart it.
Also check if there isn't any old jobs stuck in the queue:
You can do this by right-clicking on the Precalc server and going to "Display Current Queue".
There's also a How To guide on troubleshooting Workbook Precalculation Problems.
Try searching for it on SDN.
Hope it helps.

WHen user refreshes worksheet still not prompted for paramater and user gets a blank worksheet. Basically, cannot run any shared workbook.(NOTE: do not even get msg that query returned no data).
When user tries to create a workbook by selecting items for a folder in business area, then again the same result - does not didplay any data (NOTE: do not even get msg that query returned no data).
User has select from all tables priv.
Any suggestion?

Does this user have the Create/Edit query (Desktop/Plus privilege?)
Thanks.

Cannot publish workbook into role

Hi all,
I need to publish a workbook into an existing role. However, this is not possible. I see the role menu when I "save workbook as", but I do not see any of the existing workbooks in this tree and I also cannot save to any of the roles. Can anyone point me to the authorization that is missing?
Many thanks,
Andreas

S_USER_AGR: Authorizations: Role check
In the field Activity, include the value 22 (Enter, Include, Assign) for to save workbooks.
In the field Role Name, you should put specific role name which you need.

Cannot save workbook on 'My computer'

Hi,
When I use 'Save As' to save my workbook local, I want to choose a directory.
But the workbook will be saved (somewhere) and I don't get the question where I want to save it.
Why not?
Thanks, Robbert

Hi,
You have three options:
1. You can export/import the workbook using Discoverer Administrator
2. You can save to desktop and reopen using Discoverer Desktop
3. You can export/import the workbook using the Discoverer EUL Command Line for Java (eulapi)
You cannot do this using Discoverer Plus or Viewer.

User cannot see workbook assigned to his Role

Hi,
One of my users have a role (Z_T1_USER - T1 User) assinged to them in the backend. I have created a workbook and saved it under this role under Roles Menu in RSECADMIN - Role Maintenance and there is a green light for Menu. The workbook executes when I execute it from here. This shows that there is no problem so far.
But when the user logs in to BEx Analyzer, he is not able to see this role (T1 User) and hence is unable to run the workbook. What is causing this?
Thanks

Hi,
Its an authorization problem.
Pls check the RSSM T code. There enter the cube on which query was built and search for authorization object.
In the authorization object, there must be atleast one authorization object maintained for the info cube.
Suppose if you find a company code pertinent authorization object, you need to maintain the same in the role that you have assigned to the user.
In the authorization tab of the role maintain the authorization object and you are done with it

Hi Petr,
We faced some issues with drilldowns while working with very heavy (>150 col reports) reports while on Disco Version 10.1.2.48.18. Though Sharing worked fine.
You might want to raise a service req at Metalink, looks like its time to apply patch. (Our Disco (10.1.2.54.25) runs fine post patching)
All the best !!

Precalculation Server error after 10 broadcasted workbooks

Hi gurus,
i have a question concerning broadcasting workbooks. We are using the newest precalculation server with patch 13. The first 10 workbooks are calculated and sent via email. The rest of workbooks calculated are sent as a job but the RSRD_Log transaction shows an error. It begins with "Unresolved exception occured in the precalculation server" then next message "System.Runtime.InteropServices.comException. The RPC server is unavailable (Exception from HRESULT:xxxxxx) "
Then some other messages are displayed. Then at the end it says cannot precalculate Workbook. In rsprecadmin the server is green and ready.
Is there any restrictionin sending via Email?
How can i get the server again to continue sending?
How can i clear the queue, to get the precalculation server ready to continue scheduled workbooks?
Thanks and kind regadrs,
Murat

Hi Edward,
we are testing the broadcast functionality and we want to go live first week in september. I hope you remember and suggested me the note which came out in CW33 with the precalculation server patch 13 . we are using it but still NVs but there is also the issue with the sizing. Last night we scheduled 16 times the same workbook.All 5 minutes one workbook should be sent out. 2 Precalculation server were set up to deal with them. In the SAP document "How to ...Troubleshoot Information Broadcasting (BEx Workbooks)" in chapter 2 it is mentioned that when ycurrently you can have 10 workbooks in the queue. Therefore we set up 2 precalculation server with 10 workbooks capacity. Then we set in the Broadcast setting the load balancing option without selecting any precalculation server. My intention would be the first 10 workbooks should be broadcasted with one of the precalculation server. After he has reached his capacity the next workbooks would be broadcasted with the second precalculation server. Am i wrong?
When i check the queue i see the 16 workbooks in "Queue Overview of Proccessed Error-Free Precalculations" but with a duration with 0 seconds. the log says in RSRD_LOG says as described before the first message is "Unresolved exception occurred on the precalculation server" then "System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800 0706BA): The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception" and at the end "Cannot precalculate workbook ZBROADCAST_TEST". I can see that when load balancing the second server is not used.
But while seraching for precalculation server it says "Precalculation server PRECALC_2 has only 0 free instanzen => not selected" but why. it has never been used why 0 instances free?

Information broadcasting - precalculation error for BEx workbooks

Hi,
i have problem with Information broadcasting for BEx workbooks 7.0. At the log display of transaction RSRD_ADMIN i get a red status message with " Cannot precalculate workbook XYZ" -> connection transfer did not succeeded.
At the transaction RSPRECADMIN -> show queue (program: RS_PREC_SHOW_QUEUE) , i see that the request is listed as "successful precalculations" (?!)
Some hints:
-Further tests (2 days ago) were successful for workbooks and query email-bursting
-Precalculation server is switching between green and yellow status every refresh
Do you have any ideas or hints?
Thx in advance
Tobias

Hello,
I would like to suggest you something:
Go to Windows -> Services (Start -> RUN -> Services.msc)
Stop the SAP Precalc. Server
Start the SAP Precal. Server Multi-instance.
ON THE PRECALCULATION SERVER, access your system via SAPGUI and go to RSPRECADMIN.
Then, there is the tip, register 10 times the Precalculation Server with different names.
E.g.
Precalc1
Precalc2
Precalc3
Precalc4
Precalc10
Then, test again.
Cheers,
Edward

Precalculation corrupt Excel workbook

Dear All,
I installed the precalculation service and untill I open the Excel workmap on my local PC, where I opend my email account and saved the workbook on my desktop, it works fine.
When opening the workbook I get the error in excel that the workbook is corrupt.....
Anyone had this problem earlier ?
Best regards
Marcel

Hi Experts,
I would like to share you little bit regarding Precal Server 7.0.
1)Whenever you install precalserver, please take care of installation path as mentioned in SAP note.. 1039616
The path of the precalculation service is the same as the path of the BI front
end installation.
(Mostly this would be C:\Program files\SAP\BW\Frontend).
After installation checkout following files are installed in the location C:\Program files\SAP\BW\Frontend.
BExPreCalcServerProgram.exe
BExPreCalcServiceRestarter.exe
BExPreCalcWindowsService.exe
BExPrecServiceInstaller.exe
BExPreCalcRfcServer.dll
BExPreCalcInstance.dll
sapbexp.xla
Issue: Sometimes it will throw error like.
Precalculation failed: E value cannot be null
Parameter name:buffer
cannot precalculate workbook wb_70_test2
Error occured during processing of framework
class CL_RSRD_PRODUCER_EXCEL, type PROD
Solution: This issue is mostly related to not proper installation of precal server. To solve this issue, you have to
uninstall the precal server and restart the machine, and again install the precalserver as specfied in note
1039616
2)Certain time in Windows service the SAP BW Precalculation service dispay start mode but eventhough it is not started
to solve this issue , again you have to restart your SAP BW Precalculation service.
3)Don't Create too many instance(Register) in RSPRECADMIN for your precal server.
4)Check your MIcrosoft Excel version and its support of precal server.(it is better to know the prerequisite of precalserver)
5)Sometimes if you precalculate older workbooks it will throw error. To avoid this upgrade your workbook by opening itin New version
of Excel analyzer and save it again. This will upgrade your workbook.
6)If you not properly saved your workbook, it will through error or you will receive corrupted workbook.
7)After installing your precalserver, check your precalserver staus(green), if it is not show in green, again goto
window serverices and start your precal server windows services.
8)Test your precalserver in RSPRECADMIN. Goto your precalserver(registered/instance that you created in RSPRECADMIN). Dobule click it
give a sample workbook and email-id.
9)As fas as i know precalserver is not working properly for workbook with variables and complex workbooks.Correct me if am wrong.
Check your precalserver in these scenarios.
if it is useful assign points.
hope it helps
