EPublish Options in BPC Excel

Dear All,
Is any body have documentation about ePublish options in BPC Excel like Save as Web-Ready fiile..Open Web-Ready...?
In BI we can publish reports on web, we are looking for similar kind of option in BPC. Can we achieve the same using ePublish options.
Thanks in advance...
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,

Hi,
After creating a script logic, please validate it to generate the LGX file. Then you need to have an SSIS package created. You can use the predelivered SSIS packages for this purpose (you can refer to default logic SSIS). Then create a new package (copy it from run default logic DM package).
Hope this helps.

BPC Excel VBA Code to change Current View ios broken, please help

Hi,
I inherited a macro set to cycle through a list of paramenters, change current view accordingly and print the reports. It was working fine in the prior version of BPC, but stopped when we transferred to BPC 7. The code stops when it's trying to make the Current View visible (in the prior version it was an option, in BPC 7 it's always visible). I also think it does not recognize the "OutlookSoft CPM CurrentView" name. I am not a VBA expert. Woudl appreciate any ideas. The place where the code stops is in bold below.
Thank you!

BPC excel in Lanuch page

Hi ,
While ener the launch page in user desk top , BPC excel and word and power point buttins are not available there .
Please let me know any stpes are there for getting these ?
Regards,
PSR

Hi,
Their is a thread on this but not sure of the link. You can try the below options:
1. Open your native Excel. and check for Planning and Consolidation tab on the top ribbon.
2. But in your case this wouldn't be available for you so open the Excel Options
3. Click on Add-Ins and check the Active Application Add-ins
4. Check if Planning and consolidation present in it or not?
5. If not, select "Disabled Add-ins" in the drop down below besides "Manage".
6. Click "GO"
7. Select the Planning and Consolidation add-in from disabled add-ins and "Enable" it.
8. Check once again if this add-in is prersent in "Active" add-ins .
9. Now close Excel completely and re-open it
10. The Tab should be present now (Planning and Consolidation)
Thanks

BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network

Hi Guys,
I get the following error when i try to connect to BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network or security issue.
This only happen on clients machines, I have installed the client tools on the server and tested, i can connect to Excel but not on the machine. My MS office version is the same as the one on the server. BPC is ver 5.04
Has anyone experienced the same problem.
your help will be greatly appreciated.

Let me summarize your issue to see if I may help. If I cannot, then you will need to work with SAP Support on the connection problem.
- You have a single or multi-server setup?
- Installed using BPC 5.1 SP3, (or 5.0.502) correct?
- You can enter the BPC on the server, both via BPC Excel and BPC Admin?
- When you initiate BPC Admin on your client, so can connect to the Server and perform Admin operations?
- When you initiate BPC for Excel, and walk through the connection wizard, you cannot connect to the server?
- When you are in the Connection Wizard, are you using a path or a Server designation?
- Is the system on a single domain?
- When you added users to the Admin Security profile, they were selected from a DOMAIN?
- You have processed security and assigned ALL TASKS currently and processed the MEMBER ACCESS profiles, yes?
After all of this, have you uninstalled 1 BPC client, cleared the ProgramFiles/BPC folder, and deleted the local stored BPC information? If you haven't, just for simplification, I would attempt this process.
You also hae read all the SAP Support Notes regarding using Excel2007 with BPC and the issues you may experience?
Please let me know and maybe we can help.

Update microsoft word report from bpc excel report.

Hi experts,
I'm using BPC 7.5 microsoft version.
I have an assingment to do. I have a excel report (EVDRE) and I would like to link this report to microsoft word file. So when I change POV of my excel report, my word file should be change when open it. How can I do this?
Thanks!

Hi sushant,
I have an excel report located inside bpc server. To access to this file I have to log in BPC Excel Addin --> Open Dynamic Templates --> Company --> eExcel --> Reports--> Mydocument.xlt
My requeriment is that: when "Mydocument" was updated (for example with another Point of view), I would like to open a word document and see Mydocument Updated.
I would like save this word inside BPC server (log in on BPC for Word and inside of "Open Dynamic Documents")
How can I achieve this? I think that EvHot is to use in excel...but I want to update on word.
Thanks!

How does BPC Excel execute expansions?

Hi all,
I am experiencing some problems with a report and I am not able to find out what is happening. To deduce what happens I think I need some info about how BPC Excel works.
So, when we have some EvEXP, EvNXP and EvDRE functions define in the cells of a same report:
1) in what order are they executed? (order of preference of these functions and order according to the excel cell where they are defined, I think it has some influence).
2) an expansion inserts or deletes rows (and/or columns), right? So, how does it do it? Does it always first delete the rows and then insert the new ones or does it do it otherwise?
Regards,
Rafael

Hi Ajay,
thank you for giving the question a chance, I know it's kind of weird
I have continued testing since I made the question in the forum and I have been able to make some sense of what is happening guessing that BPC excel: 1) executes first EvEXP, EvNXP (I don't know if the order in which they are defined in the excel sheet has some influence or not), and then EvDRE. 2) always performs first expansions in columns and then expansions in rows (either for adding or deleting, but again I don't know if the order in which they are defined in the excel sheet has some influence).
I am dealing with this issues because we have some quite complex reports with different EvDRE with expansions (in the same sheet, ones over the others). It used to work ok in 5.1, but in 7.0 we discovered the one EvDRE would "break" other EvDRE as its expansions would eventually delete more rows/columns that it should (we have a note with support on that).
We found out that this issue does not happen with EvEXP, EvNXP expansion, so as a workaround I am trying to make the report using EvEXP/EvNXP for the expansions combined with EvDRE to retrieve the data. And I am slowly getting to it, but continually experiencing rows that brake, ranges that shift around in the sheet, etc., mainly by how the expansions get executed, thus my need in getting deeper knowledge on how it all is internally working.
So, do you think my conclusions are ok or you have a different insight?
Regards,
Rafa

EVfunctions fails using web template (without openning BPC Excel)

When we publish a template in the contant libary, it gives us a url. We use this url to access from a sap portal. Then, the template bottoms with macros that have EVfunctions don't work. We need to open the BPC Excel Client to run it.
¿How can we use a web template directly from the url? (without openning the BPC Excel Client)

maybe I'm explaining bad myself, or maybe I don't underestand your answer.
I will try to explain it step by step my problem,
we made a template, with evfunctions, like match-codes, refresh buttom, and another buttoms with Ev functions. This template is used to introduce user-values, so the users can fill the template and save the introduce data in the application.
We publish it with the content library, so we get a url. We put this URL in sap portal, like a link to this template.
When users or administrators wants to use this template by this link, it is opened with internet explorer, but the cannot use this template, because, those buttoms and functions doesn't works if we openned in this way. The only way to use this link is if we connect to the bpc excel client, before we use this link. But our question or problem is that we don't want to use in these way, we want to start introducing data and using the template directly from the url.
So our question is: is there any possibility to do that? and if it is, how can we apply it?
thanks for your answers.

I've seen this or something very similar when the following occurs: Changing the members used to secure an application without updating the member access profiles, e.g. adding ACCOUNT as a secure dimension. Users who had access prior to the change see this error on the next log in attempt.

Various table options on one excel sheet

I am looking to create an excel document that contains a drop down menu for each month of the year, and when the desired month is selected in the drop down menu, a table will appear with the number of days in the month. As some months have different
amount of days some of the tables will be different (hence why I want the different various table options). The excel document will be for a timesheet were clients input the amount of hours they have worked in each month.
I have tried the 'Pivot Table' but I don't think this is what I am looking for.
Thanks

Hi,
>> I am looking to create an excel document that contains a drop down menu for each month of the year, and when the desired month is selected in the drop down menu, a table will appear with the number of days in the month
You can using Data Validation to create a drop down menu for users to select the month.
Data—Data Validation—
There is a sample code , which generate a table based on the dropdown box selection.
Sub CreateTable()
MonthArray1 = Array("Jan", "Mar", "May", ...)
Dim MyRange As Range
Set MyRange = Range("A2")
Dim pos
Dim amount
Range("D4").Value = "Date"
Range("E4").Value = "Hours"
pos = Application.Match(MyRange.Value, MonthArray1, False)
If Not IsError(pos) Then
amount = 35
Else
If MyRange.Value2 = "Feb" Then
    amount = 32
Else
    amount = 34
End If
End If
   For i = 5 To amount
   Range("D" & i).Value = 2015 & "-" & Range("A2").Value2 & "-" & (i - 4)
   Next I
End Sub
And I'm not sure whether you are looking for a VBA solution, if not, we will suggest you posting this question in Microsoft Community Office forum
Hope this will help you .
