Deactivate Hierarchy symbols in excel

Does anyone know how to remove the display of the Hierarchy symbols within bex analyser.
Our problem is that we have a large hierarchy which is expanded by another hierarchy, in total about 2000 rows and 9 columns. Within ST03N it can be seen that 98% of approximate 600sec processing time is occupied by the front end. The front end PC is appropriately spec'd ~ less than 3 months old and is consistent with other users.
From what I can tell this performance is related to the display of the many hierarchy symbols in excel. So I would like to know if I could remove them. I am aware that they can be changed, however no real performance improvement is noticed.
We are on BW 3.0B SP20.
Thanks
James

Hi James,
To see the (very) hidden sheets, I refer you to an earlier posting. I have copied part of that posting below and provide a link if you want to see the entire posting.
What would you expect to see happen ... when you run the routine above you will see nothing immediately ... unless you have made the query repository sheet visible ... in which case you will see that the 6 shape objects on the repository sheet have disappeared. When you refresh the query, though, you should see no hierarchy symbols on the query sheet.
You are correct that if you manually delete the object ... either on the query sheet or on the hidden repository sheet ... the symbols will reappear (in both places) after query refresh. That is why in the code shown above I create new objects (with zero height and zero width)with the same names.
Following is from a posting dated June 3, 2005 ...
To view the query repo sheet, the first hurdle is making it visible. To do this, go to the VB Editor and either:
1) select the Microsoft Excel Object that is named (SAPBEXqueries); double click to select; launch the Properties window (press F4); change the Visible property to Visible
2) use the following VB code:
Sub ShowSheets()
Dim ws As Worksheet
If ActiveWorkbook Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
If Left(ws.Name, 6) = "SAPBEX" Then
ws.Visible = True
ws.Select
ws.Cells.WrapText = False
End If
Next ws
End Sub

Cannot deactivate hierarchy in Query

Dear all,
From my problem is about activate/deactivate hierarchy for query in SAP BI version 7.0 whether query running on portal or on Business Exploeror(excel).
First of all, this query is reported about cost center value and amount.
I set the user with authorized for responsibled cost center.
This user can access and run this query for responsibled cost center with hierarchy display active without error.
And i see that, this report is filter with the user authorization, that's correct.
But my problem is ...when this user deactivate the hierarchy in the query, the message " User is not authorized" will be showned. It's mean that the auto-filter doesn't work.
How can i set the authorization to user which can deactivate hierarchy and see data only responsible cost center?
Thanks for any help in advance.
Best Regards,
Lavitra P.

Thanks for your information.
I have set authorization in authorization object: S_RS_AUTH (the value of this object will be cost center) and authorization is based on hierarchy node.
Moreover, in model, character is flagged as auth-relevant. (if not set as auth-relevant, i think that the cost center will not be check as authorize)
for checking SU53, i already done and the system require S_RS_AUTH with value 0BI_ALL which is the value of root of cost center (highest node). and if i assign this, although i can deactivate hierarchy but all cost center data will be shown ( not only responsible cost center) that user can see data in other cost center so it's not correct way to solve this problem.
Do you have the way to set without auth-check fail?

Wrong Currency shown in Bex Analyzer / SFr. Symbole in Excel

Hi Experts,
Hi have a question regarding the display of currency in Bex Analyzer.
I have a report showing Euro in the most of columns and one column should shown usd. The conversion is done in the backend.
By running the report the column which should show USD show SFr. (Not a currency).
In Excel i checked in format cell--currency. There SFr. is define as Symbole. It is a general problem. How to solve it?
Thanks
Gilo

Hi Andrey,
thank you for replying.
Have you added IO currency to rows ?
-- Other Columns with Euro are showing the correct currency.
Does your conversion work correct ?
-- Yes
If you execute the report in bex query designer (via web) do you get correct results ? i can not execute via web.
I execute in rsrt and the column is showing the result with $. I expected to see USD.
1. why is bex showing the wrong currency?
2. why is the result under rsrt with $ instead of USD?
Thanks

Add a "%" symbol with Excel Interop

Hello folks!
How do I programmatically put a "%" symbol to a column in the Excel chart. I am using Excel Interop library.
Any advice will be appreciated!

I am working on wpf desktop application in which I am using C# 4.0 and MVVM design pattern. The app generates several Excel reports and I am using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll library to export data from wpf app to excel file. I have found that the
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll library is a good choice for dealing with Excel files. Below is the code I am using to generate the chart above.
private void CreateChart(string[] xValues, double[] yValues)
var xlCharts = (Excel.ChartObjects)_sheet.ChartObjects(Type.Missing);
var myChart = (Excel.ChartObject)xlCharts.Add(48, 241, 750, 400);
var chartPage = myChart.Chart;
chartPage.HasLegend = false;
chartPage.ChartType = Excel.XlChartType.xlColumnClustered;
chartPage.ChartStyle = 4;
var seriesCollection = chartPage.SeriesCollection();
var series1 = seriesCollection.NewSeries();
series1.Name = MetroNew.Localization.Properties.Resources.ReportFractionTitle;
series1.XValues = xValues;
series1.Values = yValues;
var vertAxis = (Axis)chartPage.Axes(XlAxisType.xlValue, XlAxisGroup.xlPrimary);

for (int i = 1; i <= pointsCount; i++)
if (i <= 50)
color = Color.FromName(i.GetColorByName());
else
var rnd = new Random();
int index = rnd.Next(1, 50);
color = Color.FromName(i.GetColorByName());
series1.Points(i).Interior.Color = color;
var axis = (Axis)chartPage.Axes(

Removing "plus" symbol in Excel

Hello dear Labviewers. I need to calculate the values in excel, and can't do that with those "plus" symbols. Is there any way to remove them from Excel ?. The problem occurs because my scale can measure both positive and negative values in grams.
Best regards
Oesen

Curious: Is this program for the visually impared? Or for a monitor that is far - far away from the operator?
Just asking because it is super large...
I did not see where you write the values to the Excel spreadsheet. It must be in a different VI.
But I do have comments for the one you posted. Nothing serious, just things you pick up with experience..
Also, you do realize that you need to select the Start/Stop and / or Reset before you click on Measurement 4 so that they do the proper action, right?
I think you may need to investigate producer consumer architecture.
To learn more about LabVIEW, I suggest you try looking at some of these tutorials.

Can´t use power symbol in Excel 2011 Mac

I have Microsoft Office 2011 installed in my Mountain Lion.
the problem is that while using Excel it does not recognize the key ˆ (hat) to calculate.
The unusual solution is to use the power function, but the ˆ typing should work correctly.
I think that reamapping keys in System Preferences/Language and text/Change symbols and text should work.
The problem is I do not know how to insert the ASCII symbol to change the keytype ˆ to this ASCII or unicode symbol.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
Tks!

I solved the problem.
I used Excel Autocorrect to change the circunflex symbol by the hat symbol.
Just copy the hat symbol from Word typing circunflex and adding space will change the character to hat symbol, then go back to Excel and paste the hat symbol to the modified character.
Simple as that, now my Excel can calculate 2ˆ3=8 now.

Inserting Symbols in Excel 2011 for Mac

How do I insert the `cubic' symbol (the tiny 3) in Excel 2011 for Mac OS Yosemite Version 10? I upgraded my OS recently and the Advanced Symbol tab seems to have disappeared. Please help.

I suggest doing it as follows:
Show OS X's Character Viewer. Do that from the Menu Bar. If you don't see how, go to System Preferences > Keyboard and check "Show Keyboard & Character Viewers in Menu Bar."
In the search bar in the upper right, type "3".
In the results (shown in the lower right), the first result you see is a superscript "3".
Double click the superscript "3" to transfer it to your Excel spreadsheet (wherever you left your cursor there).

Red color for negative values with $ symbol in Excel

Hi All,
We have a custom XML Publisher Report developed using XML rtf template. There is a number field in that template and the field is number formatted with $. i.e. output will look like this.
$100
$200 ...
the issue which we are facing is when that number field is having negative value, then it is displayed in red color.
and the client dont want that red color to appear in excel.
ex:
-($100) is displayed in red color in the excel output. This should be displayed in black color.
Can anyone help me on this..
Thanks
gtungala

In excel, under format cells, under category -> Number, look under Negative Numbers to see if the selected option is a number format in red. I think selecting a regular format (in black) should fix the issue..
Thanks!

Query performance on Multiprovider(Remote Cube)

Hi All,
I have to increase the query performance for a report which built on Multi provider.
This multiprovide designed from several remote cubes,but for this report data will bring through one remote cube from R/3.
In filter i had one remote cube, which bring data from R/3.
Now in ST03 the stats are like
%init Time - 0, %DB time - 0, %OLAP time - 16.67, %Front end - 83.33.
Now i have to improve the %Front end lapsed time.
Could you please guide me.

Offline Reporting with Excel? -- complete Report +hierarchy possible?

Hi people!
Im new in SAP BW and I have a question regarding BEX. My goal is to get a complete Excel report that contains all the data and has a working hierarchy structure without connection to BW!
I generated a report with Query Designer whose data are represented in several hierarchy levels (option in row-header).
=>date
===>area
=====>customer
=======>material
After the execution of the query in BEX Analyzer or in the web, only the highest level (date) is indicated. If I open the next levels, the data are reloaded of the BW each time.
But Id like to load the data completely despite hierarchy (Transaction RSRT and then properties load all data is selected).
Ok to get all the data, I could change the option in Query Designer to open all the levels after the first load, but the hierarchy levels should be closed at the first time.
<u>My Question is:</u>
Is there a possibility to get all the data offline in Excel with working hierarchy levels? Its important for me to get a complete report without connection to BW and so the people can navigate also offline, e.g. open a lower hierarchy level with all the data.
After saving my report as *.xls-file, the report contains only the part of the shown results and the hierarchy symbols have no function.
I dont need any symbols in offline report. I think, the excel function group by would enough for my requirements. But I dont know how can I use this function with my data after running the query.
In SAP R/3 the same is possible automatically, when a report will be generate.
I have tried to find responses here in forum. But the search is unfortunately a little complicated and the results were not satisfactory.
- Why I cant get a list of the main-topics?
- How can I get satisfactory results for multiple words?
OK, I have read something about OLE and BSP, but I hope to find an easier solution without programming.
Maybe the tool XL Reporter would be a solution, but we have no Business One licence. Unfortunately, current links for download a free version (I dont know if its free), which I found here in the forum are not working for me. Whats wrong with XL Reporter?
I would be glad about helpful replies.

Hi Eugene!
Thanks for your trouble and sorry for the late answer, but unfortunately I had to do a lot.
I think, to describe my idea is not so easy with my English. But maybe you can understand it.
First I should say, the web report and the offline Excel report are two different things now. I don't save the webreport to excel.
The web report gets a hierachy and other formatings and with access to BW the user can use the report just as one likes.
My idea for the offline Excel report is to save the complete data without hierarchy or other formattings. So every characteristic and every key figure is in a separate column and all rows contains data.
date/area/customer/material/sales volume/other kf
01.11.2005/100/34567/66000/34.000 euro/...
01.11.2005/100/34567/67000/23.000 euro/...
01.11.2005/100/34567/68000/14.000 euro/...
01.11.2005/100/34567/69000/43.000 euro/...
01.11.2005/100/40200/33000/11.000 euro/... (new customer)
01.11.2005/100/40200/44000/10.000 euro/...
01.11.2005/100/40200/68000/35.000 euro/...
01.11.2005/100/40200/69000/22.000 euro/...
Then the created Excelsheet should be handled by vba.
As far as I know, you can select the data in Excelsheet with normal SQL commands. If the corresponding data are selected, I try to use the group by function in vba code.
So first I select the materials from the first customer. If I found the next customer I want to group all materials for the previous customer.
The Result should look so: (+ -> to open the materials)
01.11.2005/100/34567/__/+____________/...
Sum_______/___/_____/__/114.000 euro /...
01.11.2005/100/40200/ /+____________/...
Sum_______/___/_____/__/ 78.000 euro /...
The next Step is to group all customer in one area.
01.11.2005/100/+_____/__/____________/...
Sum_______/___/______/__/192.000 euro/...
01.11.2005/200/+_____/__/____________/...
Sum_______/___/______/__/320.000 euro/...
And the last point is to group all areas per date.
01.11.2005/+___/_____/__/____________/...
Sum_______/____/_____/__/512.000 euro/...
02.11.2005/+___/_____/__/____________/...
Sum_______/____/_____/__/433.000 euro/...
Now If I have a hierarchy structure, the offline user of the report can open the single levels to see the details.

BW-BPS Excel OWC hierarchy display

I have created a layout that uses hierarchy with the excel display. in transaction BPS0, the layout displayed in excel shows the hierarchy using the outline feature of excel as expected.
However, when this layout is deployed on the web using the excel OWC, the hiererchy levels show up but the outline feature of the excel is not available - so I am unable to collapse hierarchy levels. Is this standard behavior? Is there a way to do this?
Note: It works ok with the ALV display but we want to use excel OWC.

hi...for hierarchies, use a web item called 'Hierarchy list' and give the respective infoobject in it.
