Design studio with BPC

Hello Experts,
How can I connect Design Studio with BPC cubes. I am Using DS version 1.3
I need to create Design studio with BPC data.
Gone through some documents but couldn't find out the way to do this.
Regards,
LKumar

Hi Kumar,
I have implemented a design studio on top of a BPC model by enabling the "use a source of data" in the BPC Admin website - it creates a multiprovider (name /CPMB/xxx) and we can then create bex queries on top of it with some limitations (no currency convertion by eg.).
Design studio is managing this query as a standard BEX query - Only to display data ...
Regards,
Thomas
PS: Please pay attention with multiple systems as BPC objects can have different names when transported (attributes). All references of BPC objects in Design studio would be then incorrect.

  • Cascading filters not working in Design Studio with Universe

    Hi,
    I am trying to create cascading filters in Design Studio 1.2.
    I have one data source
    DS_P2 which returns two measures:
    (product code)
    (investment code)
    2 drop down boxes:
    PRODUCTCODEDROPDOWN_2 (product code)
    DROPDOWN_1 (investment code)
    1 crosstab component (to display DS_P2)
    Connecting to a BO Universe, Single Connection, relational SQL database
    Script On Startup:
    //To populate the product dropdown list & Set default value
    PRODUCTCODEDROPDOWN_2.setItems(DS_P2.getMemberList("_Rd3rMcNtEeOlu9zFKasaVQ", MemberPresentation.EXTERNAL_KEY, MemberDisplay.TEXT, 50,"All"));
    PRODUCTCODEDROPDOWN_2.setSelectedValue("All");
    //To populate the Investment dropdown list & set default value
    DROPDOWN_1.setItems(DS_P2.getMemberList("_9HY_4cBvEeOMbdZh-4RtVw", MemberPresentation.EXTERNAL_KEY, MemberDisplay.TEXT, 50, "All"));
    DROPDOWN_1.setSelectedValue("All");
    "On Select" script for PRODUCTCODEDROPDOWN
    //Filter data set P2
    DS_P2.setFilterExt("_Rd3rMcNtEeOlu9zFKasaVQ", PRODUCTCODEDROPDOWN_2.getSelectedValue());
    //Re-populate the Investment dropdown list & set default value
    DROPDOWN_1.setItems(DS_P2.getMemberList("_9HY_4cBvEeOMbdZh-4RtVw", MemberPresentation.EXTERNAL_KEY, MemberDisplay.TEXT, 50, "All"));
    DROPDOWN_1.setSelectedValue("All");
    The image below shows that the second dropdown box is not filtering correctly based upon the selection made in the first drop down box, the second box should display list, E_CASHUP, E_GWROTH, E_STABLE, S_GROW_ACT,ZZZZZZ, P_BAL_IDX
    Does any one know if there is a limitation to creating a cascading filter when using universes?
    Am I doing something wrong?
    ARRRGGGHHH any help appreciated

    Penny,
    You can try using SDK to achieve your goal.
    I posted once a ComboBox example, i know it does not do what you want right now, but it could be a starting point.
    ComboBox with custom items
    Mike also has some great examples here.

    Good Luck.

  • Design studio connectivity with HCP

    Hello, I am able to connect Lumira to HCP.
    Wanted to check if we are able to connect Design Studio to Hana Cloud Platform at this time?

    My only experience with this is on AWS - and looking at the PAM https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/012002523100018972812014E I would lean towards AWS; this is what we used during the OpenSAP course with SAP's Jim Rapp

  • Display Repeated Values in a Crosstab - Design Studio 1.2

    I've a report in Design Studio from a Bex query. There are repeated values in few columns which Design Studio 1.2 refuses to display.
    note: I've already unchecked the box "Hide Repeated Key Values" in the query properties of Bex query designer and i'm able to see repeated values when I open the query in Bex analyzer.
    Design studio would not display the repeated values in the crosstab.
    Anyone encountered and fixed a similar issue before?

    Hi Stephen,
    I was not able to resolve this issue, and I had to go ahead with values not being repeated.
    I think this is a limitation of Design Studio with no fix for it in v 1.3 either, unless someone could suggest otherwise.

  • We are a small design studio how do we install lion on all machines

    We are a small design studio with 8 imacs. How do we install Lion on all 8. Do we have to download the installer 8 times! at 4gb a download that is a lot of bandwidth. Or can one person sign in to the App store and download then distribute to all 8 machines?
    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    You might want to peruse the licensing agreement for Lion, available here:
    http://www.apple.com/legal/sla/
    I have absolutely no experience with commercial or volume licensing; but, as a business, you might want to pay special attention to para. 2B and C. The terms are not the same as they are for a single user.

  • Odata services in Design studio 1.2 ?

    Hello All,
    I am exploring Design studio at the moment and I know that we can do scripting along with drag and drop functionalities.
    But I would like to know if it also possible to consume Odata services or send Odata requests to HANA database to get data back and display on charts or tables and so on.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Sangamesh,
    Based on what you've described, I'd say it's most likely you will need to create a Calculation View.  For more general information about using HANA with Design Studio you may find the following posts useful:

  • Design Studio on HANA - HCP or AWS?

    Hello community,
    Has anyone had experience with hosting Design Studio on an XS engine in HCP?
    We are looking to host Design studio on HANA but are not sure which solution to pick to host it.
    This is our scenario:
    Data source: XML files through an external webservice, weekly upload, less that 1GB of data
    ETL Tool: Data services
    DB: HANA
    Reporting tool: Design Studio on HANA
    Display: External website connecting to Design Studio Dashboard and displaying it within an iframe.
    The solution will be public facing and therefore needs to be in a productive environment.
    From what I have read, it seems possible on AWS. However I am not sure if it is possible with HCP.
    Any experience on that?
    Thanks

  • Using BPC with Design Studio 1.4

    Hello,
    We have recently upgraded to Design Studio 1.4, and are running BPC NW 10.0. I am trying to create a simple dashboard in Design Studio that will allow for dynamic filtering (based on the selected value of a radio button). Below is the script I have created that would be run on selection of a time period:
    if (RADIOBUTTONGROUP_1.getSelectedValue()=="2014.TOTAL") {
      DS_2.setFilter("/CPMB/RSDIEQ7","HIERARCHY_NODE/\/CPMB\/RSDIEQ7/2014.TOTAL")
    I removed the backslashes (in red above) and received a warning message:
    Value "HIERARCHY_NODE/CPMB/RSDIEQ7/2014.TOTAL" does not exist for "/CPMB/RSDIEQ7" in connection "cuid:AQV3Qrc3W5lJuDTpLd4PrpU".
    My question -
    1 - Is it possible to filter BPC dimensions in Design Studio 1.4?
    2 - If it is possible, how do I apply the filter so that the filter value is recognized?
    Thank you for your help!
    Beth

    Hi Beth,
    please try "setFilterExt" instead of "setFilter" and it will works.
    The syntax should be like this: DS_2.setFilterExt("/CPMB/RSDIEQ7","2014.TOTAL")
    I hope it works.

  • Problems with changings within Design Studio Report published on BI Mobile App

    Hello BI Mobile Experts,
    At the moment we are setting up a prototyp for BI Mobile reporting with SAP Business Objects Mobile and the BI Mobile App.
    We created a report with Design Studio and published this report without problems within the Mobile Category. This Report was displayed correctly on iPads we are working with.
    This week we made some changings within the report (new Crosstab, changings within css file). Unfortunatelly this changings were not displayed within the Mobile App. When we run the report local on the desktop within Design Studio everything works fine and is displayed correctly. It seems like the iPad is caching the report and doesn't get the new definitions, because after uninstalling the complete app from the iPad and installing it again, the report is displayed correctly.
    Does anybody of you have same issues and is knowing how to solve that?
    Thank you and best regards,
    Gerardo

    Hi Emre
    I recall when I installed DS on our BI 4.1 SP2 system, the Analysis Application Service is not added to the Adaptive Processing Server (APS) automatically, I had to manually include the service into the APS for it to work correctly.
    To make the dashboards visible to the BI Mobile applications, you must assign the category "Mobile" to the dashboards.

  • Combine Analysis with Design Studio

    Greetings,
    I know it's possible to export an Analsys Application from Analysis for OLAP. You can then open it in Design Studio to edit it.
    However, is it possible to "embed" an analysis in Design Studio?
    We would like to be able to swap the axis, drilldown, change the members, etc. and combine it with Design Studio layouts.
    If not, is there anything on the roadmap? This is preventing us to move from Bex WAD 3.x...

    Hi Nadim,
    with Design Studio and the scripting you are able to add so much functionality within your dashboards that I don't see that big gap between these two applications.
    For exampe: You can add a filter panel where you are not only able to set filter but additionaly chose which measures should be displayed and whether they will be added as columm or row.
    So it is possible within Design Studio to swap axis, change the members and do (little) drilldown.
    But for drilldown-functionality you will have to use scripting and it is indeed still not as good as in Analysis. So one of my wishes for a future release is to enhance the drilldown-functionality (without much scripting or using multiple data sources) like in Analysis.
    But you are right, DS is a tool to consume the data, many of these functionalities to analyse data have to be scripted which is some effort for each dashboard and every used query.
    Some more integrated analysis functionality would be great.
    (Maybe a better solution than to "embed" an anaylisis?)
    Nevertheless I would like to see some export/switch function to open a query in Analysis (for Office), too. You are able to integrate links to an external URL so why Design Studio is not able to add a link to the Analyis-Application?
    I know that some customers want to see their data in Excel, they would really appreciate the possibility to press a button to jump directly to Analysis for further survey of their data.   
    Regards
    Steffen

  • Design Studio 1.2 with OLAP issue

    HI All,
      I have created a report with conditional formatting in Analysis for OLAP. I saved as a web application and open in Design Studio. Everything works fine. Chart is fine. Currently I am using the chart type as Column Combination - Dual Axis once I make change to the onclick event of the chart. Then columns changes to line chart . Not sure where this change is taking place.
    Any input is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Manju

    Hi Patrick,
    After uninstalling Design Studio and before re-installing it again did you try the following steps?:
    1)  Delete any remaining Analysis folders in the user directory such as:
    C:\Users\<user>\Analysis-config
    2)  Make sure the Design Studio program folder has been completely deleted:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Design Studio
    Regards,
    Mustafa.

  • Visual Studio and BPC 10.0

    Hi all,
    I'm a relatively new Planning Consultant and on a new project have the requirement of having an input screen for the allocation of time, for an individual, against a project.
    Examples of the required input are:
    - Allocate Nick Carter, to Project ABC, for 28 November 2011, Full Day (8hours).
    - Allocate Joe Bloggs, to Project XYZ, from 28th November to 1st February, Full Days
    Has anyone used Visual Studio to create an input screen, and maybe used a drag and drop design that integrates well with BPC.
    There is also a requirement for Versions, i.e. Scenario 1, Scenario 2, which allow different planning options.
    The BPC input screen, even with the Web UI 10.0 is limited, especially due to the way it presents data as numbers as opposed to text.
    Any feedback or advice would be much appreciated!

    Hi Sabine, thank you for the replies!
    We are using BPC 10.0 for NetWeaver, and not MS.
    The reassurance that it is technically possible if good for our Project as we can start to move forwards with the Bluerprinting. We are going to use NetWeaver Gateway to connect Visual Studio to SAP (BW and BPC).
    We have done some mock-ups for Excel but have come accross some significnat limitations, some of which are column limits, and how we need the input cell, e.g. 8 (hours), to Project Name.
    [The current solution looks like this|http://i44.tinypic.com/1o7hjr.jpg], and the way that we thought BPC Excel could look is like this: [BPC Excel Possible Design|http://www.freeimagehosting.net/newuploads/fef8f.jpg]
    I have also found information that there are row and column limitations on excel that will restrict the volume of data we are required to show / input at any one time. (I found information [here|Maximum Number of Columns Exceeded Message; under Sakthi Jaganathan's post)
    I'm not sure what you mean by Business Object Connector. From internet research it suggests it's a BOBJ connector for BI4 which we will be using for reporting.
    Thanks again for your comments, you don't realise how much it helps us!
