Issue with export in Excel in WAD

Hi
I have an issue with export to excel in WAD. I have a web template with two or more tabs.
On the webtemplate I have two buttons to export to excel. One to export the content from the active tab and one button to export content in all tabs.
My problem is that when I export to excel it always add the current/active content twice. I've tried with both buttons and they work as expected except that they export one table to much (the active).
can anyone help / give a clue what to look for.
br,
John

Hi
Sorry I has been a while but the problem still occurs,
I've defined my export button group like this in a seperate template and I expected that it would only return the resultset from TAB_A and TAB_B but it also export the resultset from the tab I'm currently on.
<bi:TEMPLATE_PARAMETERS name="TEMPLATE_PARAMETERS" />
            <bi:BUTTON_GROUP_ITEM name="TAB_BUTTONs" designheight="23" designwidth="300" >

exported excel sheet, but this didnot work.I am using excel 2007.
Can anyone tell me how to preserve the excel formatting for WAD template.
Thanks,
Harsha

Hi Roy
Have you got the report set to bring back a specific number of rows at a time (ie retrieve data incrementally in sets of : setting in options)?
If so set this to a larger number of rows, Discoverer will then return all data when the reports is run and will export all data to the spreadsheet.
Hope this helps

Export to Excel - File Name WAD 7.0

Hi All,
I am using Export to Excel Functionality with WAD 7.0 to export the report to excel format.
I have used button web item, with an excel picture above it. The functionality works fine.
But while exporting the name of excel file shown is WAD 7.0 name.
ex. My WAD 7.0 name is IFIOP_C07_W700, the excel file also gets saved in this name.
I want it to be made customizable.
Can you throw some pointers.
Thanks,

Export to Excel for multiple dataproviders in WAD

Hello Guys,
I need a quick note on the requirement. Is there any possible solution to get data from different data providers used in WAD exported into one excel sheet.
The backend is 2004s but WAD used is 3.5.
Actual scenario is there are 8 different data providers in WAD with a different query assigned to each data provider. Right now 8 different buttons are provided for Export to Excel for 8 different data providers.
This works fine bringing data in 8 different excel sheet. But users feel this is very annoying task and they need data from all 8 data providers in one single excel sheet.
So is there any way to achieve this. I have assumed this to be a long associated problem with 3.5 WAD but i thought there might be a way around.
Please help me with a solution or either your view on this.
Regards,
Shashank

Shashank,
This is an oft repeated requirement ... but then export to excel is dataprovider specific and in WAD each dataprovider corresponds to a single table and getting all the data together is not possible .... but then there might be some other work around - you can check the forums for the same where options for the same have been discussed.

Problem exporting to excel when using embedded web templates through WAD

Using web templates designed with WAD, we are experiencing an issue when trying to export excel when using embedded web templates.
We have set up tabstrips within our templates that load other templates (embedded into the global template).
Upon right clicking on any query and choosing "Export to Excel", any query that is in one of the tabs using the embedded web template item does not show up. Any queries in natively in the global web template will export and show up fine.
Any thoughts on how to enable something like this, or workarounds to make this work? We decided to split up these templates for performance reasons and can't go back from that decision. Also let me know if you need a better explanation of what we're trying to do.
Thanks in advance!
Jonathan

Hi SDBI,
Is this in place of loading a new template per tab? We are using container layouts in all of our templates so we can link things into tabstrips as well, we have just split up some templates to be embedded into tabs for performance reasons and data locking.
Also when exporting, we are looking for all of the items displayed at that time to be exported, however only the items from the global template show up, not all of the displayed queries. For example, anything outside of the tabstrip will export perfectly, but since the query embedded into the template the tabstrip is loading is not part of the native web template, it does not show up.
Seems like a tool limitation to me when embedding templates?
Thanks,
Jon

Export to Excel functionality for Multiple tabs in WAD

Hi,
I have a requirement where in i need to export a report from WAD to excel. The WAD template has multiple tabs which i want individually in seperate excel sheet tabs. How can i achieve this ?
Regards
Snehith.

Hi,
have a global button (some where on the top) with command 'export to excel' and configure all your analysis item for that button. So when u execute the template and when u click on individual tab, the report out from individual tab will be exported to excel when u click on Export to excel button.In this way u can individually export the output to excel.

Export to Excel - WAD with 2 tabs

Hello
I've got a WAD with a container which contains 2 tabs
Container 1 is linked to the first tab
Container 2 is linked to a second tab.
There is one query on each tab.
When we export to Excel one tab, Excel shows technical ID of the WAD.
Is there a possibility to display title of the tab instead of WAD techincal ID ?
Thanks & Regards
Catherine

Hi Catherine,
This is a Tricky question.......
Let say you have placed Container1(which has some data) under Tab1 and Container2 under Tab2 and Export to Excel.
Now if you perform Export to Excel for Container1 data,then the data will be exported into Excel where the name of the tab(Tab1) won't be displayed as a worksheet name in Excel.It will always show Name of the Web Template and not the tab name.
So whatever you seen is as expected.You can't export a web template which has multiple tabs into Excel with the same way as it shown in web.
Hope this clarifies you.

Murali

WAD - Export to Excel: Information from Web Item "FILTER_PANE_ITEM"

Hi all
In a report header I would like to display all the restrictions (filters) that have been placed on a query. I do this by adding a FILTER_PANE_ITEM in the web application. I works fine in the IE: In the top of the report all restrictions are displayed and below the query result from ANALYSIS_ITEM part.
I have created a Buttom called "Export to Excel". The Command is EXPORT and in the web items for Data Binding I list both the FILTER_PANE_ITEM and the ANALYSIS_ITEM.
When I run the report in the IE and push the "Export to Excel" buttom the data is exported to Excel...but only the ANALYSIS_ITEM part. All information from the FILTER_PANE_ITEM are missing... And I don't understand why!
Can anyone give me a hint to what I am doing wrong?
Regards
Peter

Peter
FILTER_PANEis not an exportable item and hence the web item binding is ignored.
Please see note 1178857 - Additional information: Export to Excel functions
Alternatively, you can use INFO_FIELD Web Item to display the list of static, dynamic filters and variable values used.
Thanks
Sri

Template having export to excel functionality with filter values in WAD

Hi,
I need to create a template which has export to excel functionality with all the filter values that the user has selected in the selection screen.
export to excel can be done but how can be the output excel sheet contain only those values which we see in browser when the report is executed with some filters.
Regards,
Apeksha

Hi Apeksha,
you can achieve this requirement (unless I do not know the detailled requirement) perhaps by using this way of implementation:
1. Create a new template which contains an info_field which does a data binding to the variable values or the characteristic you want to display. Set the visibility of the top container to "hidden". Add a empty data provider to this template. However be aware that the name for the (empty) data provider must match the name of the data provider within the original template you want to print.
2. Open your original template and include the template you created in step 1 (Advanced: Web Templates and technical name of the web template created in step 2). Choose the appropriate location (above/below the analysis item).
3. Check the settings of your export command: do not set a special web item to be printed.
If you export the template within web the second template should be printed correctly displaying the variable settings chosen in step 2 for the info_field.
Brgds,
Marcel

WAD 70 - Export to Excel 2010 doesn't work as expected

Hi Friends,
We're rolling out Office 2010 and are facing several problems with BW Interfaces.
I've to solve this:
Runing Office XP Export to Excel ran without problems. After pressing standard button
https:/....../portal/prtroot/com.sap.ip.bi.web.portal.integration.launcher url was called and
an open/save dialog appeared.
Office 2010 : System asked for a certicate. I added VeriSign Class 3 Public Primary CA
according to SAP note 711648 (not knowing a better way, being aware it's valid for 3.5)
This ffinally worked, but now I have to confirm certicate four times and believe me, that is not very convenient.
Now my question(s):
Was I right so far and how can I avoid confirmation of certificate in dialog?
Thanks in advance for your response and regards
Joe

Hi Martin,
Thanks again. But in my case, there must be a different issue.
Changing macro security didn't change anything visible.
What' really strange,
starting sexport in the context menu works without requesting certificate,
and adding a new export statement in a button group item also works as
desired. Comparing 'new' and' old' xhtml code, I'm not able to see any dufferences.
Will open a new athread with this subject, if necessary.
Best Rgeards

Web App Designer Export to Excel - Issue

Hi Gurus,
I was able to sucessfully configure export to excel feature in WAD. However the issue we are encountering is, we have a button which runs a script function, this manupulates data in some columns of the report. So when I perform export to excel after the script function is excuted, the export gets the old state of data and not the data after the script function is run. Is there are way to fix this issue. Please advise.
Thanks Again!

Dear Customer,
WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) is not supported on Export to Excel.
If you are using some script AFTER data comes to screen, you will NOT see the effects on Excel.
This is documented in the note:
1178857 - Additional information: Export to Excel functions
" Layout
o Currently WYSIWYG export is not supported.
Sorry to not provide a better solution.
Best regards,
Edward John
