Creation of Query View

Hi All,
Can someone pls explain me how to create a query view and what is its importance?
Thanks in advance.
Chaitra

Hi Chaitra,
i dont know which BW version you use but let me explain that for BW 3.5:
1.) Local Views: If you navigate in your BEx workbook - for example you start a query and navigate in Excel - you can save the view state in the BEx workbook. Than this view is a local view stored in the BEx workbook. You can open this views by using the "jump" button in the BEx toolbar.
For example you filter your query by different sales organizations and there are 4 sales orgs available. You can than filter and create a local view for each sales organization.
Its a good way to switch fast between different views within a workbook without many navigation steps. Just a click or link is enough. End users like this.
The view is saved "in the workbook".
Hint: to save use the blue save button in BEx Analyzer.
2. Global Views: You can navigate within your query in the BEx Analyzer and if you reached a good view state with the filters and the requested drill down you can save the whole view with any settings (query, characteristcs, key figures etc.) as a "global" view. In this case you must save the global view a description and a technical name. Now this view is saved "on the BW server" and any user can open this view by using the open function.
And you can use this global view in the Web Appication Designer as an initial view for tables and charts. There are many more things you can do with it. For example: if you filter for example a special sales org in a global view, than you can use a drop down box (mapped with sales org in web application designer) and the drop down box is pre filtered with this sales org. As you can see global views are important for wen reporting.
Hint: to save use the blue save button in BEx Analyzer.
Global views can be openend in the excel or web.
If you read the online help you will find more useful examples.
Hope this helps.

Adem

Hello Anand,
1. In RSA1 -> Transport Connector ->Object types -> query views ->Two query views are selected. YES (or)No
Yes, Collect only the view if the Query is already transported. If the query is not transported then select the Query with Dataflow afterwards it will collect all the views as well.
2. If selecting views i am not selecting the query and query elements, only the views. YES (or) No
Yes, if the query are already transported.
3 And i saved the querys in Package and created a TP. YES (or) No
Yes, definitely you have to capture these views in a package and transport request.
Once the views are collected in a transport request , release the request and inform the transport team to import to the target system (Qual or Prod)
Note : In BI/BW BEx tranports are handled differently and not like other objects such as InfoCube, InfoObject. So whenever you are working with BEx Objects make sure that you assing a transport request in the following
RSA1->Transport Connect -> BEx Icon (Truck Symbol) -> Assign Package and Request using the Assign Button.
If you transport system is configured to capture the BEx objects during creation or modification then the above step is not required.

How to prevent end user to create a Query View and save back to BW Server?

Dear All :
Do Someone know that how to setup authorization for Bex Query View Creation? We want to prevent end user to create a Query View to save back to BW Server his favorite folder. when our user run Bex Query, he can base on this query and use Bex Analyzer's save function to save a Query View and save into his favorite folder.
My question is :
1. Can we set up a Authorization to prevent end user to save Bex Query View?
2. Or can I remove Save function from Bex Analyzer to prevent end user use save function, But Developer should not to be prevent .
Thanks for all of your kindly response.
Best Regard
Lawrence Kuo

Hi.
Yes, you can do it like you outline in your point 1):
You need to use the authorization object S_RS_COMP for this. This object let's you control what parts/components of a query the user can do stuff to. So, in your case, you need to have a role for the users, where you do not grant create-access to the component QVW, and then you need another role for developers, where you grant full access or whatever you need for your developers.
See [this post|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a6c54319-0e01-0010-20a4-fb81ad32f330?QuickLink=events&overridelayout=true&5003637661135] and the [SAP Help entry|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/80/1a6859e07211d2acb80000e829fbfe/content.htm].
You will also need to use the authorization object S_RS_COMP1. If you already have a productive system with users doing reporting, both objects will be maintained in one of the roles already.
You also want to consider using the object S_RS_PARAM to allow users to create variants for the variabel screen.
Good luck.

How to do security for query VIEW - BI 7

Hi,
I have created several query VIEWs and for some reason users can change the query VIEWs i created.
How can i do security for VIEW making sure nobody will change them?
I am using BI 7 and portal 7 as well.
Thanks for your help.

Hi there, I have the same concern.
I have been trying to play around with object RSZCOMPID, restricting activities on QVW (query views)
Activity                       03, 16                                                                      ACTVT
InfoArea                       Z*                                                                          RSINFOAREA
InfoCube                       *                                                                           RSINFOCUBE
Name (ID) of a reporting compo Y, Z                                                                      RSZCOMPID
Type of a reporting component CKF, REP, RKF, SOB, STR, VAR                                                RSZCOMPTP
Apparently there is a bug, or a higher level more permissive that is constantly allowing the related role to overwrite or create new views.
Furthermore, we cannot troubleshoot with SU53 in the ABAP stack, since RSRT does not offer the creation of views. Only way to test this is either BexAnalyzer (which only saves user views, no tech name), or the Portal >> this is where my issue is.
If anyone has a solution, would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks

Error while saving a query view

Hi All,
I am trying to save a query view in my favourites and it is failing with below message:
Namespace '/BIC/' must be set to 'changeable' (transaction SE06)
I have created many query view so far, this issue has just started. Could you please help us with this, as it is very urgent.
Thanks and regards,
Shashidhar.

Hi,
Please set the setting as described in note 337950, it will help to fix the issue.
solution:
Releasing the object changeability
This setting is only intended for production or test systems that are
set to not changeable. It is not suitable for development systems. For
this reason, this setting is only effective if at least one of the
conditions specified under 'Cause and prerequisites' is met.
Go to the Administrator Workbench (Data Warehousing Workbench,
transaction RSA1) -> 'Goto' -> 'Transport Connection' and choose 'Object
Changeability'. To display the function, you may have to enlarge the
window or press the arrow keys nearby.
In the following dialog box you can select the object types that you
want to be changeable, even though the system is set to not changeable.
These objects are not connected to the transport system; this means that
no transport dialog boxes are displayed. This only applies, however, if
the preconditions mentioned under 'Cause and prerequisites' are met.
First, after releasing an object type, only objects that are original,
that is, those that were created in this system can be changed. This
prevents changes to objects that were imported into the system. However,
changes to these objects may be overwritten again during a new
transport.
You can set all objects to changeable (even the ones imported into the
system) using the context menu (right mouse button), although this
setting is not recommended for the reasons mentioned above.
Thanks,
Venkat

Query View name not saved in "Analysis Grid Properties" under Data Provider

Hi BW World;)
We are on BI 7.0
I have created a BI workbook which contains a query view.
However when we go into design mode and then "analysis grid properties" for this query view then "change data provider" it does not show the query view name but the query name. (we have saved the workbook)
Is this the normal scenario?
Surely should show the "query view name " and not the "query name" as confuses what data provider is being used?
Is this a bug?
Best
Stevo.... Points of course... Thanks in advance.;)
Edited by: bw4eva999 on Sep 10, 2009 4:40 PM spelling

Hi,
You have created a workbook on top of a Query View which is again depends on a Query.Now the base for Query View is a Query.So the underlying Data Provider for a workbook is a Query.
Hence when you go to Properties of grid->Change Data Provider,it shows the Query and the InfoCube,but not the Query View.
So this is not a bug and this how its been designed.
If you click for the Information of that workbook,it will show the Query and Info Provider,but not the query View.
Though it looks like wierd,it is not a bug.

BEX Query Views - Reqd in PRD but need to create in Dev - Data Issues

Hello Bw Gurus
BI 7.0 ECC 4.7
We have a BEx Query in BI production which uses a work centre hierarchy. The user wants to create query views on this query to use in BI production.
Our normal transport procedure of a new development object would be BI DEV - QA - PRD
However the DEV environment does not have all the work centres and the data of PRD. So if the query view needs to be created in DEV then we could not set up the view correctly as there is not the workcenters or the data in DEV.
Hopefully that makes sense?
Apart from allowing Query Views to be created in BI PRD directly is there any solution?
Best,
Steve Jones

If you need exact char values for workcenter to create your views you can quickly create the master data (just the values you want) in Dev and use them to create the views...

Create A Query View!

Hi ALL
how to create a Query View for TeMplates?????
Thanks
BI Learner

hello,
Query views are saved version of query output with particulr navigational state
The advantages of query views are:
Query views can be used as the data providers when you are creating web templates.
They are also used as jump targets. They are created after you execute the query, from the Save button, you can Save View global, or save as jump target.
They can also be used to format the query e.g hide some characterictic, display/hide result rows, sorting keyfigures etc.
Reg migration:
All existing SAP BW 3.x queries can be edited with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s BEx Query Designer without further manual adaptation.
After editing with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s Query Designer, queries cannot be edited with the SAP BW 3.x BEx Query Designer anymore.
Queries created or adapted with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s BEx Query Designer will still appear in the Open Dialog of the SAP BW 3.x Query Designer, but they cannot be opened anymore
Views:
Query Views that were created before upgrade/migration will still run after a query has been changed with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s BEx Query Designer
In general query views do not need to be migrated

Dhanya

How to Create/Modify/Delete a query view from the web template in BI 7.0

All:
In BW 3.5, the Query Selection View web item was introduced for users to create a query view to save the navigational state of a query. This web item was also available to modify and delete an existing query view.
The Query Selection View web item does not exist in BI 7.0. I see the drop down web item can be used to display the query views associated to a query.
Can anyone share how to create,modify,save or delete a query view on the web in BI 7.0
Thanks,
Kumar

Sanjay, we experienced the same issue. Below are a few pieces of information that may be of help: 1-The Save As button on the 0ANALYZER template saves the query to the portal. From Bex Web or Bex Analyzer, you have no access to these saved views. We created a ZANALYZER copy of the 0ANALYZER template and removed the Save As button. 2- If you right mouse click on any item in the query results grid of Bex Web, you get a small menu. Clicking on the menu item Save View will save the view to BI. You do not have the ability to delete the saved views from Bex Web. However, you can delete them from Bex Analyzer. This was not an option for us since most of our users are using Bex Web. 3- On the same menu, clicking on Bookmark, saves the navigation and also opens the Internet Explorer Favorites maintence window. The navigation is saved as an entry into the users Internet Explorer favorites where they can organize and delete their entries. However, deleting the favorite does not delete the entry for the bookmark in BI. The bookmarks are stored in table RSWR_DATA. Program RSWR_BOOKMARK_REORG can be used to manage the saved bookmarks. We are loading RSWR_DATA into a chracteristic so that we can query the information in order to help us manage it. I hope this helps you and others that appear to be struggling with the issue of saved views in Bex Web.

Query View missing in the BI Content

Hi
I want to install a 3.x Web Template which is using a Query View as the dataprovider, but the Query View is not available as D-version and hence the Web Template throws an error that the query view is missing and hence cannot execute the web Template.
I have checked in the tables : RSZWVIEW and there is an entry but there is not object in RSORBCT to install.
SAP BI_CONT version 704 level : 003
When i try to activate the D-version of the query view the it gives the following message:
*Object 0CSAL_C07_Q0101_V01 (Query View) could not be collected for object ()
Message no. RSO296
Diagnosis
You have collected objects in the BI Metadata Repository. Associated objects for object of type have also been collected. Object 0CSAL_C07_Q0101_V01 of type Query View was among these objects.
However, this object 0CSAL_C07_Q0101_V01 of type Query View is not available in the metadata repository.
System Response
Object 0CSAL_C07_Q0101_V01 of type Query View is ignored in further collections. The links for object of type are incomplete. This may result in you not being able to activate this object.

Variable with proposed value in BEX Query View

Dear SAP-Gurus,
I have a Web Application with some views on one query. In the inital screen i show the popup for entering the global variable values. Now my question; is it possible to give a global variable used filled by exit and used in these queries a proposed value, receeived by user exit?
With normal query this works, but not with a query view.
any suggestions?
kind regards.
Jürgen

Hi,
if anyone has the same problem - you just have to set the parameter variables_clear=x in webtemplate.
same applies to bookmarks, if you want the variables to be filled by your exit.
