How to create a link to Excel, from Bex Web 3.x

I need to create a link, from Bex Web 3.x, to Excel or PDF, how can i do this?
I only do a link with another PAge in internet explorer.
Thanks
Romina

Hi Romina,
I am not sure if I correctly understood your question, but you can try to use the broadcasting functionalities which allows you to publish Excel and PDF documents on the portal, besides online links to real time data.

Why authorization needed when accesing an export in excel from Bex

Hi Experts,
Before upgrade to version 7.0 when our user export a report to excel is
neccessary enter user and password, the issue is that not everybody
have a user therefore so they cannot see the excel.
This problem is due to the icons are in the server and in the excel
there are links to these icons of the server.(for example the icon of the hierarchy node)
If you configurate the excel to not load the icons the issue disappears
In Microsoft Excel
Select tools->Options->General->Web Options->General tab
and unmark the flag "Load pictures from Web pages"
But this solution is not always available for all users due to different excel plug-ins installed in their local computers.
Our questions are:
1.- How can we avoid these icons in the future?
2.- Why these problems occurs since the upgrade to SAP BW 7.0?
3.- Is there any option to insert the icons instead of having links?
Thanks in advance

Hi Reddy,
it has been some time ago you have posted this issue so I'm not sure if you still need a solution for this issue.
Anyway, I assume you have found the manual regarding the export to excel, csv and pdf for Visual Composer (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/47fe4fef-0d01-0010-6f87-ed8ecb479123)
We also had issues with the export funcationality described in the document. I don't recall the exact error message.
Just some advice:
Copy the code from the document into Notepad. Then, make sure you re-arrange the code into 1 single line (remove all enters). Then, copy the code into the formula editor of the hyperlink action. Don't forget to define a store (e.g. reptname) but that is explained in the document as well.

Delete workbook from repository from Bex Excel Interface

Hello,
Is it possible to delete a workbook from the repository from Bex Excel Macro.
Yesterday I have lost a workbook (is not anymore in the table RSRWORKBOOK) but the program RRMX_WORKBOOKS_DELETE was not used.
Since it was transported I have re run the Transport order so everything is fine but I can not explain.
thanks for help

Hi,
A workbook can be deleted using function module RRMX_WORKBOOKS_DELETE (execute using Transaction SE37 and Test). Parameter workbook ID (I_WORKBOOKID) and object version (I_OBJVERS) must be specified.
check this sap help link....it might help you....

Combination Prompts from Bex and BO Fileters in Dashboard 4.1

Hi experts,
I have Bex Query contains 3 prompts and i have created Dashboard on top of that Bex Query
now i want to add 2 more prompts in the same dashboard but from BO Side not From Bex Side(i have some constraints from business to add prompts in Bex Query Designer )
is that possible,if its possible please let me know how to do that.

Hi Prasad,
How did you used the Bex query to dashboard, using what connection. Are you using any reporting tools between the Bex query & Dashboard.
1. If you have any report tools(webi or crystal) then you can create the prompts over there.
2. If you are taking taking the data directly to the dashboard using query browser connection then you can use some selector component to achieve this, but you need to bind the data into the excel level, because using that data only you can take those data into the selector component.
If you have mapped all data directly to the charts or component then its not possible. hope you go it.

Prevent Excel from recalculating when refreshing a query within a workbook

Hello,
I have a BEx workbook with 4 queries and a significant number of Excel formulas retrieving and rearranging query data.
**The issue**:
When Excel>Tool>Options>Calculation is set to "Automatic" (as it should be in normal situations), refreshing anyone query takes about 2 hours.
When Excel>Tool>Options>Calculation is set to "Manual", refreshing anyone query takes about 2 minutes.
Therefore I conclude that BEx does not prevent Excel from recalculating during a query refresh and this cause unacceptable delays.
**Question**
Is there any way to prevent to temporarily prevent Excel from recalculating during a query refresh ?
Thank you.

I have a star schema, ie 5 FACT tables and 7 dimension tables, All fact tables share the same dimension tables, some FACT tables share 3 dimesnsions, while other share 5 dimensions.
I did adopt the best practices, and as recommended in the book, I tried to resolve them using Context, as it is the recommended option to Alias in a star schema setting. The contexts are resolved, but I still have loops. I also cleared the Multiple SQL Statement for each context option, but no luck. I need to get this resoved ASAP,
I checked all the context and they look fine, however when I again go to detect context it asks me to add the context which is already present. It give me an option to overwrite? Besides, I also get some Alias options. However I was told and it was mentioned in the book that Alias is not a good option to resolve loops but context is when you have a STAR SCHEMA.
Please suggest idea.

Exporting to Excel from Aria People Search

Is it possible to export to Excel from Aria People Search.
I would like to output the Org Chart (built in) and the Tree (I created) to an Excel file.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks,
Tom

Hi,
If you are using 10g, then OLE2 is supported. However, it will be executed in the App Server Machine.
If you want to do the operation in the Client machine (as how it was done in the Client / Server), you need to use Client_OLE (Which is part of WebUtil).
Look at

for more details on WebUtil.

Need to remove prompts which is comes from Bex query

Dear Experts,
Currently i am working in webi report (4.0 SP2), Back end of this webi report is SAP Bex query, created by using BICS Connection. In bex query we have created different variables on Company code,vendor, business area, key date etc. from this company code and key date are mandatory variables.
My Bex users need input screen to execute the report as per their requirement. But my webi users don't required any prompts. they want to manipulate data by using input controls.
Req : How to avoid variables (Prompts) which is coming from bex?
Regards,
PRK.

Hi Praveen,
As per my knowledge, We can not remove mandatory BEx variables from the Webi prompt screen. Value for mandatory Query Variable has to be pass from Webi report.
You can create another Bex Query without any variable and need to use for reporting in Webi.

Calendar prompt for Date variable from bex

Hi All,
I have a Bex query where I have a variable on 0CALDAY
- Customer exit (i_step = 1 to populate with current date)
- Single value
- Mandatory
I created universe on this query and in webI selection screen i do see the variable prompt.
I am not able to see the current date populated automatically since exit values are not populated to WebI at runtime.
My problem is that in WebI selection screen we get list of date values from the info provider instead of Calendar prompt
where user can enter the values directly.
I am currently on BO XI 3.1 SP3.
Is there any specific setting in Universe or bex query which is required to get this Calendar prompt instead of list of values for dates?
Note: When we were on SP1 the universe created then had same variable from bex and it still shows us Calendar prompt but ever since we upgraded to SP3 for the query splitter functionality we not able to get the calendar prompt for date variable in new universe we create
Thanks
Ritesh

Yep.
Now tell me how you want to show that Prompt @ WebI report level.
My problem is that in WebI selection screen we get list of date values from the info provider instead of Calendar prompt
where user can enter the values directly. Exactly, i didn't get this??
@Prompt:
You have flexibility to show options like:
Mono/Multi: User can select Single value or Multiple.
BW Variable: Same we have (Single/Multiple)
Free/Constrained: User can Enter his/her value directly or No change option.
BW Variable: By defalut you will get this, once you made it to Optional input.
Persistent/Not_Persistent: Refreshed report has to show last selected value means use Persistent otherwise Not_P.
By seeing the Prompt syntax , I can say your Variable is after Customer Exit, Correct??
Workaround for your Problem is:
<FILTER KEY="ZV_DATE"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Date (Previous Day)','A','Date\LovDate (Previous Day)Base',mono,primary_key)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
You have to remove that Date class and objects from prompt syntax. Because of that it showing up LOV's not calendar.
Like:
<FILTER KEY="ZV_DATE"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Date (Previous Day)','A',',mono,primary_key)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
Why, It should be blank??
Because Date needs no class\object to show up, by default you will get Calendar on the fly.
Hope you got my point.
Thank You!!

Issues on exporting the report to Excel from full client BO 5.1

Hi,
I am facing a problem in exporting the BO report from Business Objects 5.1 to excel file. I am aware that there is no direct way to export the BO report to Excel from Business Objects(File--> save as to .txt file and then copy its data to excel )
When the export the BO report to excel file,I received two errors one over other
error1: Numeric data overflow (3349)
When I click OK button, second error received is like this
error2:export failed (dma0005)
I tried all options to fix this and also I looked for an dialog box " export to external file format " in Business Objects inorder to copy the report data to COPY TO DDE option but I didn't find any aforementioned dialog box
Please provide me the solution to fix the issues
Kind Regards,
Srinivas

Hi Denis,
Yes,all reports based on this particular universe have this problem
Are you telling me to isolate the object from the universe that is creating problems and then run the report ?
Also, I am unable to find the option from menu items in Full client BO 5.1 to open the dialog box with name " export to external file format ". Can you please tell me where I can find this?
Warm Regards,
