Copy queries + variants + workbooks -- RSZC ?

Question

BW Experts,
Using RSZC can we copy queries, variants and workbooks?
I have to make a copy of queries from the cube to the multicube.
Thanks,
BWer

Hi BWer.
You can copy your query like this:
1 Go to SE37
2 Type in RSZ_I_COPY_QRY_TO_CUBE
3 Press Display
4 Scroll down and look for this line in the code:
IF l_subrc <> 0 OR l_is_compliant = rs_c_false.
5 Position the cursor on the line and set a breakpoint by clicking the "stop" sign
6 Go back
7 Run the module by pressing F8
8 Type in your source + target cubes and press F8
9 You get to the debugger at the line where you set the breakpoint. Double click on l_is_compliant to make it show in "field names" (to the left) below the code.
10 Type in x in the "field contents" (to the right), press the pen symbol to the right of the line and press F8
11 Chose the query you want from the list and press "transfer selections"
12 Check the log: after all the error messages about the cubes not being identical, there should be one line with the green light of hope - this is your query that was copied
13 Check if all the objects in the query are available in the cube you copied to by opening the query from the query designer.
14 If some objects are missing in the cube you copied to, you'll have to fix this - If they are there, you can look busy for a couple of hours just doing your own thing and having everybody else think you are copying the query manually :-D
(you might want to change the query tech name by using "save as" from the query designer)
Enjoy,
Jacob

...and of course: If your system crashes or something like that when you try this, or as a consequence of trying this, I accept no responsibility :-D
I did this on BW 3.0B ... dunno how it will work on other versions...
