Change query in Ad-hoc Query Designer
Hello All,
We are using Ad-hoc Query Designer for users to run their reports. now we want them to do their modifications there itself and save as the query. But SAVE and SAVE AS buttons are Inactive.
One more problem with using Ad-hoc Query Designer is when we run reports and want to save the Bookmark, this function is not working (though the Bookmark button is Active).
It would be helpful if you could pinpoint the settings/configurations that I would need to check to get above two things working.
Thanks and Best regards
Pratap Sone
If you want users to enter the data , you can create a transactional cube andmake the query input ready .

SAP Query vs. Ad-Hoc Query
Hi guys,
Can anyone explain to a newbie like me
1. what's the difference between SAP query and Ad-hoc query?
2. Can we link all SAP Queries to tcode and thus access SAP QUeries via Tcode?
3. Ad-hoc query is unlike SAP query as in it cannot be accessed via Tcode, correct?
4. Seems to me SAP query works similarly to custom abap queries. Thus, y don't we just used custom abap queries instead?
5. Are the selection screens for all SAP queries the same? Cause I accessed 3 SAP Queries, and all their selection screen are exactly the same with fields like Object ID, Evaluation Path...

Validation of EEO code using ad hoc query
Hi,
I just want to ask for a help or any ideas with regards to the case below.
The EEO job categories have been revised and I've already map the existing job codes to the correct EEO job category in table T5U13. But when I try to run a query for a specific job to check and verify if the mapping of the new EEO job category to the existing job code is correct, the EEO code field is left blank. Meaning that there is no EEO job category attached to the job code. But I've maintain the mapping already and when I double check table T5U13, the job code is map to the new EEO job category. I just want to ask for help that if I run the query, the EEO code field would have an entry based on the mapping I've done.
Thanks in advance for your help!Hi Sanghmitra,
I have got a query in AD-HOC query.
After creating the Adhoc query using the join table functionality the resulting adhoc query does not results any out put.
What I have done is :
1.Created a user group through SQ03
2.Attched user to My user group
3.Created an infoset using join table functionality(SQ02).
4.Saved and generated the infoset
5.Added the user group to the infoset and than run the ADHOC query.
The table I have used to join is all PA table (For test pupose)
Though the purpose of the custom infoset is to join PA,OM and E rec infotypes, for testing purpose I have joined only PA infotypes.
Result:The adhoc query does not gives any out put instead it says no data could be read.
Could you please tell what else I need to do so that the custom infosets gives an out put.
Will greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks and best regards

Hi Angel,
Check what Kumarpal has said, he may be correct.
What I would ask u to do is, ask your ABAP-er to pull a report from the table level using SE11. See what is the number of hits.If there is a difference then the Query behind Ad-Hoc query is not working properly.
The reason for your problem could be many if not one.

How to disable Wizard in Ad-hoc Query Designer
Hi everybody,
I am using the Bex Ad-hoc Query Designer in a web application. The users should be able to define their own queries, but just for one info provider. I selected the info provider in the properties of the ad-hoc query designer in the web template.
Now the users are able to create queries for all info providers with the wizard.
Is it possible to disable the wizard or to disable all buttons at the top of the ad-hoc query designer.
Thanks in advance,
JoergThis can be done using the security for the Infoprovider, provide the users access to create queries only for that Infoprovider.

Hi,
In which scenarios we use Ad hoc Query Desinger..can you give me an example....I know there are few restrictions when compared to Query designer.....hi,
Ad-Hoc Query designer
Creating a query with the Ad-Hoc query designer is much on the same lines as creating a query with the Bex Query Deisgner. You need to choose the chars and key figures and place them in rows, columns, free chars or filter areas. You can set the InfoObject properties and also create exceptions and conditions.
The Adhoc Query Designer is a web item and can be made available in web reports
See this link for more info and some important restrictions when using the Ad-Hoc Query Designer:

Ad-hoc Query Designer: Create Exception
Hi there,
somehow, my Ad-hoc Query designer is going crazy or something. I don't know whether it is a technical error.... hope you can help me.
When I create an exception, if I don't set the standard operator AND all characteristics to "All" the exception is displayed only for the results.
When I set all these operators to "All", then the results are also marked in the respective colours. However, I only want to mark everything but the results, but if I choose for this option, only the overall result is displayed.
Can you help me?
Thanks,
SabineHi Sabine,
I think I did not fully get what your requirement is, please elaborate on what you want to be displayed. Something general
1. in tab "exception values" you can specify the key figures on which the exceptions are to be applied and assign value ranges to different colors / levels
2. in tab "validity area of exception" you can specify
a) to apply the exception on all or totals only (choicebox), this setting is valid for all characteristics not mentioned in the field below
b) to apply the exception on everything, totals, everything but totals, fixed value, hierarchy level corresponding to a certain characteristic

Ad Hoc Query Designer - Web Application
Hello,
I have created a Web application that has the 'Ad-Hoc Query Designer' item.
When I go to create a new query I don't have the option (or I can't find it) to use any variables.
Like in Analyzer I can run a query and it will ask me the values for the variables I have embedded in the query.
How do I make that work using the 'Ad-Hoc Query Designer'
Also I have problems with the application timing out, what timeout variable needs to be adjusted?
Thanks,
NickYou have to run the Launch query in browser from the query designer window, it will be the second icon from the top. This will open up the query in a browser and if the query has a selection screen the browser will launch the selection screen.
For the application timing out, it is a parameter that has to be set in the instance profile of the BI application server. You can ask your basis team to increase the parameter 'rdisp/j2eetimeout'.
Hope this helps

Difference between sap query and sap ad hoc query
Hello Experts-
Is there any difference between sap query and sap ad hoc query. If yes, I will appreciate if you can provide some input.
Thanks,Hi,
SAP Query
Purpose
The SAP Query application is used to create reports not already contained in the default. It has been designed for users with little or no knowledge of the SAP programming language ABAP.
SAP Query offers users a broad range of ways to define reports and create different types of reports such as basic lists, statistics, and ranked lists.
Features
The SAP Query comprises five components: Queries, InfoSet Query, InfoSets, User Groups and Translation/Query.
Classic reporting- the creation of lists, statistics and ranked lists- are covered by the InfoSet Query and Queries components. Other components range of functions cover the maintenance of InfoSets, the administration of user groups and also the translation of texts created in the SAP Query.
All data required by a user for a report can be read from various tables.
To define a report, you first have to enter individual texts, such as titles, and select the fields and options which determine the report layout. In the WYSIWYG mode, you can edit the lists using Drag & Drop and various toolbars.
AD Hoc Query
Definition
A Web item that enables you to create and change queries in a Web application on an ad-hoc basis.
Use
You can use the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item in the Web Application Designer to structure Web applications in which you create or change queries. The Web item is as a tool for designing ad-hoc queries in a Web environment.
In particular it enables you to:
· Create queries by assigning characteristics from an InfoProvider to rows, columns, filters, and free characteristics, and including key figures from the InfoProvider in the key figure structure of the query.
· Restrict or filter key figures and characteristics
· Use predefined key figure structures and restricted or calculated key figures in the query
· Set or change query properties and key figure/characteristic properties in the query
· Create or change conditions and exceptions
When compared with the BEx Query Designer, the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item has the following restrictions when creating or changing queries:
· You cannot integrate variables into the query directly.
However, you can use variables in reusable structures, or restricted or calculate key figures, which are used in the Ad-hoc Query Designer
· The query can contain only one structure. This structure has to be the key figure structure and be in the rows or columns of the query.
- You cannot use key figures or key figure structures in the filter.
- You cannot define exception cells, since this requires two structures.
You cannot create the following objects using the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item:
- Reusable structures
- Reusable restricted key figures
- Reusable calculated key figures
- Local calculated key figures
You can create local, restricted key figures using the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item.
You can edit existing queries in the Ad-hoc Query Designer Web item, if the queries adhere to the restrictions laid out above The Ad-hoc Query Designer checks these requirements when loading a query. If the query is too complex, the query can be loaded into the Ad-hoc Query Designer but you cannot change it there. You then receive the appropriate message. You can still check and execute the query.
"Ad Hoc" is a Latin phrase which means "for this purpose" and in today's parlance generally means "on the fly," or "spontaneously."
An ad hoc query is a query that is run at the spur of the moment, and generally is never saved to run again. These queries are run using a SQL statement created by a tool or an administrator. So therefore, such a query is one that might suit a situation which is only there for the moment and later on will become irrelevant.
As queries become more complex, it can be difficult to write them correctly ad-hoc. To help with this, one can instead write the knowledge needed for queries as business rules in English, and then use a system called "Internet Business Logic" to automatically generate and run the SQL queries. One can then get explanations of the results, in English, at the business level.

'Structure Changed' Error when running a query
Hi,
I created a query with 2 structures. One structure for the time periods and one with Key figures (Calc and Restricted).
The query ran fine and subsequently I put this into a workbook which had other queries and made a workbook type report.
I modified the structure with the key figures recently and when I run the query now a popup box appears saying "warning; structure changed" and lists down the query elements that I changed, and subsequently the query does not run (no data is displayed).
But if I open the same query in design mode and do nothing and run the query again (with the same input parameters), it runs ok.
Please advise on how I can sort this out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
DominicHi,
If you want, you can remove the query with 'Remove Query' option in the BEx toolbar and then re-insert the query and then save the changes to the workbook. The next time, you refresh the workbook you won't get any such messages.

Can not change data in Input Ready Query
All,
I have created an input ready query on an aggreagation level which has one transactional cube underlying it however, after run the query I am unable to change data in the cells even though I get a warning message saying query is ready for input
Note:
1. The underlying realtime cube is in "Planning Mode:Loading not allowed" state in rsa1
2. I tried including all characteristics so that the record can be uniquely identified at that aggregation level).
3. I am not using any characteristic restrictions
4. I have not set any data slices
5. I have set the property for Planning "Start query in Change Mode"
6. I have set the 'Key Figure' Planning Properties to "Can be changed Manually or via Planning Functions" for the key figures
7. I do not have currency/unit in row/column.
8. There are any locks occurring
Any pointers welcome.
Thanks,
MilindHi Milind,
Was wondering how was your problem solved. I get the same message when I run the query in web from query designer and in bex analyzer the cells are not updated with the changes that I make.
I am hitting my head against the wall to figure what could be the problem as my plan query is simply based on aggregation level created directlty upon the real time info cube.
Have cross checked all the points that you mentioned in this post but I cells do not change.
There should be some way around to solve this problem.
Thanks
