  • 2 Queries within 1 workbook in BEx BI7.0

    Hi Experts,
    I know that there is a new method of creating a workbooks in BI7.0 using the Design Mode.
    Suppose I have put 2 queries within 1 sheet in excel (one on top of the other). I did this by inserting 2 analysis grids within the same worksheet.
    When I try to drill down the query on top, the area it occupies expands and completely overwrites the query at the bottom.  As such, the bottom query disappears.
    Is there a setting somewhere which will make the system adjust the position of the query at the bottom in this scenario?
    I remember that with 3.x, when you insert 2 queries within the same worksheet in the workbook and you try to do a drilldown, the system would ask if you want it to overwrite or adjust the affected query area.
    I am trying to look for the same functionality in BI7.0 workbook creation.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

  • Steps for creation of DSO in BI7.....

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me out with the steps for creation of DSO in BI7.....
    Points will be assigned...
    Cheers
    Shankar

    Hi Shankar,
    Procedure of creation of DSO in BI7 :
    1.Select the InfoArea to which the new DSO object is to be assigned, or create a new InfoArea. Choose Modeling--> InfoProvider --> Create InfoArea.
    2.Choose Create DSO Object in the context menu for the InfoArea.
    3.Specify a name and a description for the DSO object, and choose Create.
    If you want to create a copy of an existing DSO object, specify the DSO object that you want to use as a template.
    You get to the DSO object maintenance screen.
    4. Transferring InfoObjects:
    On the left side of the screen, there are various templates to choose from, which allow you to get a better overview in relation to a particular task. For performance reasons, the default setting here is an empty template. Using the pushbuttons, select an InfoSource (only the InfoObjects for the communication structure of the InfoSource are displayed), an InfoCube, an DSO object, or an InfoObject catalog.
    On the right side of the screen you define the DSO object. Using the Drag&Drop function, assign the InfoObjects in the key fields and in the data fields. It is possible to select several InfoObjects at once. The system assigns navigation attributes automatically. These navigation attributes can be switched on for reporting in BEx.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    When trying to open Workbooks using BEx Browser35 the Workbooks do net get opened within BEx Analyzer, the "lInks" seem to be inactive.
    The test has been conducted using SAPGUI720 with BEx35_Patch1 and Windows7/Office2010_32bit.
    Does anyone know if this problem is related to the new SAPGUI-version being used or is this a known error requriring some manual configuration.

  • How to open a workbook in BEx 700

    Hi Friends,
    Is there a way to open a workbook in BEx, just knowing its ID and name?
    Workbook is not saved in a role, psooibly in favourites of a user. In 3.5 using FM RSAH_LAUNCH_EXCEL
    was a way to achieve this.
    Any ideas?
    Regards
    Joe

    Hi again,
    First of all thanks for answers.
    Please let ne give a short explanetion of my issue:
    i'm BW Admin, we are currently "moving" from 3.5 to 7.0. My problem is, that I'm  missing al ot of ueseful tools, provided in 3.5.,
    not longer available in 7.0, as you can see form my threads in the past. In all of the long years of working in IT, I never expeienced such a step back and a lack od conbienence intrducing a new release of any software.
    However, one of my users is spending his holidays and a collegue just wants to run a workbook obviously saved
    in his favourites. And I'm still searching for a possibilty for achieving this in a easy way, without changing settings in
    user administration (copying favourites copying ,even etire user....).
    Thanks and Regards

  • Arrange workbooks in BEx Browser

    Hi all,
          We are facing a problem arranging the workbooks in BEx Browser. In some folders we have many workbooks and these are just sitting on top of another. I tried to arrange them manually or with the properties option, but even then we still have many workbooks and the Users are having a tough time looking at them. I do not see any scroll bars that will make the window grow according to the number of workbooks.
         Do we have a option to set up the scroll bar in the Browser window so that the workbooks wont overlap or any other option to list the workbooks.
    Thanks,
    Prabhu.

    Hi,
    You can assign workbooks to roles and assign roles to users. After that a person can login to the Bex Browser and based on the roles that he/she has see only those workbooks.
    using tcode PFCG you can create what you want: assign roles to specific users. after saving workbooks under role and a role's menu item a user depending on his/her roles will see only what was allowed.

  • Migration of bex 3.x queries and workbooks to Bex 7.1 queries and workbooks

    Hi,
    Migration of bex 3.x queries and workbooks to Bex 7.1 queries and workbooks.
    For instance when you edit,open an 3.x query in 7.0 query designer it is automatically migrated.Would it be same if we open it in 7.1 query designer?Is it possible to migrate queries and workbooks without any fail or deletion or loss?
    Thank you.

    I will add to the already excellent suggestions made above that the migration from Bex 3.x to Bex 7.0 is VERY laborious. There are no automated tools.
    All queries and workbooks must be identified (use this as an opportunity to get rid of unused objects)
    Each query must be converted to BI 7 and repairs done as needed.
    Each Workbook must be converted to BI 7 and repairs done as well. The "Automated" conversion tool that SAP provides (it's behind the scenes Visual Basic) presents problems with at least 50% of the workbooks, and so they have to be manually fussed with.
    If you've used Visual Basic at all in your Workbooks, you'll have to change 'em all. The On Refresh event no longer exists.
    And of course, test... test.. test.. and test.
    And don't forget to retrain your users. The User interface is dramatically different.
    Good luck ! We're 3 months in to a five month conversion project.

  • Error when refreshing workbook in BEx: Specific Macro CallBack not found

    One of our users is getting the following error when refreshing any BEx workbook (in BI7):
    Problems while calling the exit on refresh: Specified Macro 'CallBack' is not found in the workbook
    This error suddenly started this week, everything was fine before that, and no changes have been made to the user's PC. The problem is specific to this one user's PC.
    Any ideas?
    -Jason

    Hi,
    It seems a common error.
    There is a note that mentions the error, and was fixed since BI addons SP 8
    Note: 1267942 -  Custom macro not being executed on a workbook
    Download and test the latest version: bi710sp12_1200-10004472.exe
    This should fix the issue.
    FYI: SAPGUI 640 is not supported by SAP since 2008. If you are using this version, please download the SAPGUI 7.10 as well.
    Thanks

  • Error while Saving Workbook in BEx

    Hi Experts,
    When ever I am trying to same a workbook, I get the following error:
    "workbook format .xlsm is not supported by the server"
    Does anyone of you faced this error earlier ? Please suggest. I am working on SAP Netweaver 2007 and have MS Office 2007 installed in my system..
    Best Regards,
    Rishi

    Hi,
    Please let me know if you are opening the workbook in 3.5 Analyser. If
    then unfortunately Business explorer Analyzer 3.x is not supporting the
    new file-format. Please refer to note 1052761. If you would like to use
    new office 2007 file format you need to use Bex Analyzer 7.0. Due to
    the architecture of Analyzer 3.x this behaviour cannot be changed.
    BW Support Package lower than SP16 it is not
    possible to save files in Excel 2007 file formats on the server. But you
    can still save files from Excel 2007. When using the SAP Default
    Workbook please set the flag "Use XLS file format" as defined in note
    1267924. If you create workbooks from scratch ensure that Excel creates
    new files in XLS format (in the Excel options).
    Afterwards you are able to save files with Excel 2007 in XLS file
    format. The new Excel 2007 file formats require the implementation of
    the latest BW Support Package.
    If you are interested in saving workbooks in xlsm format you have to
    use at least SP16 and a recent FEP (e.g. FEP801). But it is
    not correct that it will work also when you implement the notes on a SP
    level which is older then SP15, as then other corrections are missing.
    And these points, I am afraid, cannot be downported to a Support package
    less than SP15.
    Therefore I have to ask you to import furhter SPs. Then I am pretty sure
    that it will work.
    Please check also note 1055581 ... where you find the info that
    we recommend to use at least SPS15 (which is BW-SP17).
    Thanks,
    Venkat
    So as mentioned above you can still save files from Excel 2007. When
    using the SAP Default Workbook please set the flag "Use XLS file format"
    as defined in note 1267924. For saving the workbook in the new file
    format(xlsm) you need atleast SP16. The latest Sp being SP20, I suggest
    you to look for an upgrade.

  • Workbook in BEx Analyzer doesn´t open

    Dear all,
    I´ve a problem, because I have a user on the bw and I work with the BEx Analyzer.
    When I open a special workbook there comes a white screen and then nothing.
    I deleted the user I´ve used and created the user new but still the same problem.
    But when I create another user id the problem doesn´t exist.
    What can it be?
    Or are special user parameters set in the sap bw? because I have not set any parameter

    the authorizations are ok.
    I´ve made a authorization trace with ST01 and that´s not the problem.
    A few weeks before the problem doesn´t exist. But after a few weeks I´ve opened the workbook and it doesn´t open.
    Is it possible to delete the user but that all things of the user will be deleted like entrys in tables of the customizing where the user is in?

  • Workbook in Bex Browser

    Hello Gurus,
    When user opens Bex Browser and try to drag the workbook on to the windows desktop it creates a shortcut for the workbook on the desktop.  But when double click on it it doesn’t open up the workbook. 
    But the same thing work fine for the queries.  Does anybody encountered such problem. Pls help.
    thanks
    jose

    Hi Jose,
    The problem is the way a workbook is opened from the bex browser when you click on it.
    When opening the bex workbook, it tries to reuse the existing bex browser sapgui connection to connect to the bw server.
    So even though a shortcut to the workbook is created there should be the bex browser open and connected to the system, so that the bex analyzer starts and tries to establish a connection to the bw server using the same rfc connection.
    In the case of queries that you refer to, i suppose the shortcut just points to the web url of the query, which is then executed in the internet explorer.
    So in your case does the shortcut at least open the bex analyzer ? and can you see that the bex analyzer is connected to the server ? if not then at least you should be prompted to logon i suppose..
    Best Regards,
    Dabre

  • Default Query or Workbook on BEx Open

    Is there a way for individual users to set a default Query or workbook to execute when they open BEx?

    Hi
    There is a way to do it using Windows functionality.
    right click on the Analyzer icon and add the full path name of the work book (which is saved on the local PC) in the Target text box.
    You can also open the saved work book and then run the Analyzer.
    I don't think there is a way to do it via the BW server.
    Thanks Edan
