Display Comments directly on BEx Excel sheets

Marc has a white paper on displaying comments and attached documents on BPS web. Is there a solution to do the same on BEx Excel sheets when running a query?

If this option is not available then the characteristic infoobject you are using in the row is not enabled with Document Property. Ask your BW person to enable that under the GENERAL tab of that Infobject.

Sanjay, yes you are correct that is how to goto the document, but how do you automaticaly include it in a printed version of the workbook?

How to modify data in the excel sheet.

Hi,
I have a requirement like ,
i have a excel file which contains only one column (all the data in the single colume )so now i have to modify that excel sheet and have to make some more columns based on my requirement.
eg:
column1
mumbaikolkata
delhichennai
mumbaikolkata
this shud be converted like this
column1     column2
mumbai      kolkata
delhi           chennai
mumbai      kolkata
can i directly modify the excel sheet based on my requirement without using internal tables in between.
like excel ->internal table-> modified internaltable-> excel.

Hi sravani,
true that we need to specify the rows and columns,
I have worked on such applications i shall describe the possibilities and then you can find the necessary option,
1) Function module:SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT .
it needs
file path p_file type rlgrap-filename and
i_tab_sap_data (the internal table name).
2) Function module : MS_EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT
it needs
file path p_file like RLGRAP-FILENAME
data_tab (int_data "internal table with data)
fieldnames (int_head "internal table with header)
3) if the download application is a one time then go for the following option:
write the program to display the data in the internal table on the screen.
execute the program.
type %pc on the command bar and try downloading using the options displayed.
hope any one of these work out.
get back if you till have any clarificatrion
thanks

Alv and excel sheet out put.

hi friends,
now i am working on sales and purchase order report. For this i have created three radio button on selection screen one for sales 2nd for purchase and 3rd for both. when i click sales radio button it is going to display only sales data in ALV out put list as well as in EXCEL sheet.
problem:-
Some layout fileds (out put fields) i am storing in VARIENT and when i have passed this VARIANT in a SELECTION-SCREEN so here the output is ok for me, and i am unable to display these same fields in EXCEL sheet for this Please could u tell that how we do this. please send the logic for this.
thands and regards.
sagi.

Hi Amol,
you are not getting me ...
see your itab will have all the fields irrespective of variant used. so you can directly use itab to download.
i guess you are using alv tool bar option to download.
but i am telling to use your own button to download the report using your own button with GUI_DOWNLOAD Fm.
for this you pass your ITAB and and then give the file name then this will save all the fields to excel file.

How to Restict number of rows to download data in excel sheet

hi,
my requirement is that i m showing top 50 seller in my dashboard. but when we click on download to excel then all 500 rows are downloading. i want to restrict downloading all data and want show only displayed data of dashboard in excel sheet.(ex if 50 top seller are selected then only 50 rows is downloaded.)
Edited by: 941334 on Jun 18, 2012 6:15 AM

Hi,
Yes.my suggestion is you set each report design analysis page itself(just to -->edit analysis-->look at the table propeties -->here u can set it how ever you want(50 rows, 500 rows etc..analysis visible page) to show/download it as per your requirment.
Changing instance confic will affect entire report.for controling this you can set dashboard/prompt filter then you control data downloading.
Check Oracle Doc for more info
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e10541/answersconfigset.htm#CIHJGAAH
-----------------------------------FYI------------------
Just FYI:If you have bulk volum of data like more than 8MB then you have increase the download size
steps configure bulk volumn data more than 8MB:
go to you bi installed drive \oracle\instances\instance1\config\OracleBIJavaHostComponent\coreapplication_obijh1\
2. Open config.xml file in an editor and search for the below lines
<XMLP> <InputStreamLimitInKB>8192</InputStreamLimitInKB>
<ReadRequestBeforeProcessing>true</ReadRequestBeforeProcessing> </XMLP>
3. The default size is 8 MB, you can increase to the size you want. If you want to set unlimited, then replace 8192 with 0 (zero) but it’s not recommended (performance may impact) then Restart BI Service and test .

Data Migration from MS Excel Sheet to Oracle 9i Database

Can anyone please help me to perform a data migration from MS excel sheet to Oracle 9i Database. I have an excel sheet from which i need to move data to the database. One of the columns in the sheet posseses multiple new line characters, and which causes a problem while migrating data with the help of SQL Loader. I would like to know whether any utility is available to migrate data directly from MS Excel sheet to the database, or it would he really helpfull for me , if anyone provide me with an alternate solution.

I think Christian's suggestion will work for easily and quickly.
1) create table link of Oracle target table in MS Office's ACCESS thru ODBC;
2) from Access screen, you may easily dump the excel data into the linked table.
This is very easy and feasible ways. Don't bother to find other ways. The other ways will need you to clear the unwanted carriage return signs first.

Unable to display double values in Excel sheet using JExcel API

Hi
I am writing code to generate report in the form of Excel Sheet using JExcel API.
Everything is going fine but whenever I want to put some double values in a cell it is only showing 2 decimal places. My problem is "I want to show upto five decimal places".
Any kind of reply might help me lot.
Thank U.

If you enable the submit zero option, it still happens? This is a new feature on the display tabl
#NumericZero Enhancements
To display a numeric zero in place of an error message, you can enter #NumericZero in any of the three Replacement text fields. When you use the #NumericZero option:
· Excel formatting for the cell is retained.
· All calculations with dependency on the cell will compute correctly and will take the value of this cell as zero.
· This numeric zero is for display only. When you submit, the zero value is NOT submitted back to the data source.
You cannot set display strings for cells that contain an invalid member or dimension name (metadata error). Metadata errors produce standard descriptive error messages.
Errors are prioritized in the following order from highest to lowest. The error message for a higher-priority error takes precedence over that for a lower-priority error.
1. (Highest) Metadata errors
2. #No access
3. #Invalid/Meaningless
4. #No data\Missing

Issue in displaying DATE field in Excel sheet

Hi All,
Kindly help me with the below issue:
A report program when exexuted fetches the data's from database tables and populates in to an itab and the same is then moved to a itab which is declared like this:
DATA: BEGIN OF t_downd OCCURS 0,
line(4096) TYPE c,
END OF t_downd.
This T_DOWND will have all the obtained records and the same is used to pass the entries to GUI_DOWNLOAD function module inorder to save the excel sheet in '.csv' format to the desktop.
The issue is the user wants the 'DATE' field to be displayed in 'DD-MM-YYYY' format in the excel sheet. So I have fetched the date based on the position(fdpos) and used the concatenate statement separated by '-'. Now when I run the program, some dates are not getting displayed in 'DD-MM-YYYY' format and some dates are getting displayed correctly as per the requirement.
While debugging also, I could find the date value in T_DOWND in the 'DD-MM-YYYY' format only. Not sure where it is actually getting changed and why.
Can some one please provide a soultion for this.
Thanks,
Deepa

Hi Soumya,
Thanks for the reply!
I declared a constant in the below format for the quotes:
constants : c_quotes type c value ''''. (i have put 4 quotes)
Now i have concatenated the above quotes to my date value.
But the output in the excel sheet is now getting displayed like this '30-02-2011
All the dates are getting displayed in the correct expected format, but the only issue is we are getting an extra quotes in front of the date.
Can you please suggest why this is happening.
Thanks,
Deepa

How can I Display my Reports in Excel sheet?

Hello,
I have developed my reports using oracle report Developer 6i, I am getting output in PDF and HTML CSS by the the parameter DESTYPT=HTML CSS/PDF through web.
1.Now I want to show reports in Excel sheet also through web using 9 Internet Development Suit/9IAS .How it can be possible?
2. Another thing is where should I deploy my all RDF reports in 9IAS?
3. In 9IAS no Web DB listener is present so how it can be possible to run the reports through web?
Thanks and Regards,
Ashwani

Hi,
1. To display the output in Excel, refer "Output to Excel with Oracle9i Report"
at http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/index.html
2. The Reports RDF files will be deployed in Report server tier, i.e the place you
have installed your Business Inteligence componentes of 9iAS.
3. In 9 iAS, Report servlet/JSP can be run inside oc4j container. Report cgi can be
run the default http server present in 9iAS. Refer the 9iAS rel-2 manulas for more information
Thanks,
Rohit
