Document Link from Query Designer

In Query Designer when you right click on any Key Figure or Characteristics there is an option for "Documents", when you click on this it opens up BW GUI screen and shows the Meta Data Document for that Characteristics or KF. Is there a setting to show these documents in Internet explorer instead of BW GUI?
Thanks
Amit

HI
U can check the document setting in query properties where an icon will automatically display in Bex Analyzer as well as in Bex web , Once u click that link then it will automatically open in the web browser.
Thanks,

Number of records in cube from Query Designer

I don't have access to the cube in BW(listschema). I only have access to pull reports from cube from Query Designer. How can I tell the total number of records in a cube?
Thanks.

Hi
you can use the tech content in the query designer to display the count for no of records or you can do the same via creating a new CKF
or see the below link to display the count

Broadcasting to Enterprise Portal using Bex Broadcaster from Query Designer

I have already been able to broadcast from Query Designer using BEx Broadcaster to the portal based on a role or a user.
I select "Export into Enterprise Portal" as the Distribution Type.
I then select "Export Document to Personal Portfolio" and then enter a role.
Then I check "User-specific" because I want it to be user specific.
This all works fine.
Now I get to my question.
Can I go one step further and broadcast to a folder call... lets say "Sales" inside of their Personal Portfolio?

Hi Eric,
I have the same problem. Were you able to resolve it?

Error in execution of query's from Query Designer

Hi,
We have recently installed the BI 7 server, when i execute the query from query designer i got the following URL:
http:///irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex?QUERY=TEST_REP&VARIABLE_SCREEN=X&DUMMY=2
due to that page is not displayed, i guess there is some sort of hostname setting need to be done.
Can anybody please guide me where all these settings are done, help required urgently ?
Thanks in advance

In fact the query's are not running because this entry needs to be maintained in the below path:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Maintain this as the last entry below the localhost
<bi server ip> <host name>.
This entry is to be maintained whenever we dont see the host name in the url.

Hello Dipika
May be you have not included host string in logon pad.
1. Open SAP log on pad
2. Select the system and go to change mode
3. you have IP defined for the system, here you need to put host string name which u can get from C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc file for your SAP system in your system.
4. Save and exit.and run query again
Thanks

Issue with Broadcasting and Publish query to Portal from query Designer

Dear all,
I have created a standard template ZWT_STANDARD_TEMPLATE in WAD and I have added this for Adhoc Analysis in 'Set Standard Web templated' RSCUSTV27.
For Broadcasting I have added 0BROADCASTING_TEMPLATE70.
I have problems with my broadcasting as well as publishing the Query in Portal.
When I use a Broadcast to Email - it opens a new window with my standard template(ZWT_STANDARD_TEMPLATE ) I have added. No data though.
Same thing happens for publishing too...When I publish the query to portal from Query Designer or WAD it takes me to the same window with my standard web template. No data though.
I think both are related to the same issue. Its with broadcasting.
What is the default template for Broadcasting in NW2004s? Below is the url I have included when I do it from Query designer. Its actually starting the Command - START_BROADCASTER70 but I dont know if it has to do a SOURCE_QUERY=ZCOPA_C03_FAST_PAYABLES. Could anyone compare it with your urls
http://pgdep00:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex3x?system=SAP_BW&CMD=START_BROADCASTER70&SOURCE_QUERY=ZCOPA_C03_FAST_PAYABLES&START_WIZARD=X&DISTRIBUTION_TYPE=PCD_EXPORT
This is the url for publishing from WAD
http://fndef00:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.sap.pct!2fplatform_add_ons!2fcom.sap.ip.bi!2fiViews!2fcom.sap.ip.bi.bex3x?system=SAP_BW&CMD=START_BROADCASTER70&SOURCE_TEMPLATE=ZWT_FAST_PAYABLES&START_WIZARD=X&DISTRIBUTION_TYPE=PCD_EXPORT
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi KK,

Unable to choose a folder while publishing to portal from query designer

Hi,
I'm trying to publish a report to portal from query designer using 'export to portal' option. I'm having two problems here and may be they are related.
Problem 1 - When I click on the dialog box to choose a pcd folder name, i get the following warning...
"The BEx Web application does not correspond to the domain with which the folder selection dialog is called Another cause of the problem may be that BI and portal server are not running in the same domain Notify the system administrator or maintain table RSPORT_T_PORTAL and take note of the server configuration section in SAP note 444247"
BEx reports created from portal are working fine. The portal and BI are running on same domain and RSPORT_T_PORTAL has FQDN. What am I missing here?
Problem 2 - When i say ok and continue, it gives me the option to choose the folder. When I pick a folder (gave complete authorization to this folder), and click on Transfer to continue, nothing happens. The button doesn't respond. Technically it should copy the folder path to the previous dialog box from where I should be able to publish.
Could somebody please help me with this problem?
Thank You,
Ashwin

Hello Ashwin,
I would start with a very simple thing: add the domains (URLs) to your trusted sites list in the Internet Browser.
Maybe it solves both problems.
Kind Regards,
Marcio

Set up a link in Query Designer

How expert,
i would like to set up a link in Query Designer so that by running the query in Bex Analyzer the user can see the link and connect to it directly.
Any idea?
Thank you in Advance for your Input.
Cheers

Hi,
in rsbbs you define your query as sender object. Then you create jump targets in there. You will get a list of possible target types such as r/3 transactions, other queries and also web sites.....
Select the appropriate type and enter the value for it. These targets will be available by right clicking on the query result using the option 'jump to' or 'goto'.

Change position of "document links" in query??

Hi i've got a question...
how can i change the position of "document links"picture in Bex Analyzer?
The first two letters are always covered by the document picture....
Thank you
Chris

In edit-mask you can force the position of the minus sign :
USING EDIT MASK mask
Effect
Outputs f according to the formatting template mask.
Without this addition, f is output in the standard format for that particular type or with a format defined in the ABAP Dictionary. The addition allows you to define a different format.
You can specify the formatting template as follows:
'_'represents one character of the field f
or one digit with type P or I
'V'only with fields of type P or I:
output of leading sign
'LL'at beginning of template:
left justify (standard)
'RR'at beginning of template:
right justify
'==conv'perform output conversion conv
':', ...separator
(all other characters)

Auto linking from In Design to a Folio?!

Hi Guys
We recently just signed up to DPS and had our first day of training yesterday. However, my production guys made it very clear that we needed links in our editions to be picked up automatically. We were told that a script existed that would do this, picking up embedded links in a PDF.
Question 1: Is this the case? Does such a script exist!?
Secondly, I need to know, if my production team is creating a page/edition in In Design, with URLs in the text, can these urls in the articles be picked up and hyperlinked automatically by DPS? But retaining the page dimensions so that we don't need to redesign the entire thing... does that make sense? Do we need to export directly as a folio? Or can we do later working from the print ready pdf?!
Apologies for the somewhat haphazard post, but I'm not production, just trying to figure things out. Basically our magazines have a lot of links in the body of text and it has been suggested that we may need to link these manually, so I need to find what options we have to circumvent that and find a way for In Design/DPS to pick them up and link automatically.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Sid

Are you referring to a placed PDF? If so, no, there is no way to get any
live links in that PDF to work. A PDF is placed as a graphic.
The answer is also no to your second question, but you can try the auto
convert URLs to hyperlinks command. The problem with that is that hyperlinks
can be kind of wonky. I prefer no fill/no stroke buttons for that.
It sounds like you think this is going to be piece of cake. While it's not
difficult it is quite time consuming.
