Filter button on second query in workbook

I'm using BEx 7.10. I have a workbook that I added a second query to by inserting a worksheet and inserting an Analysis Grid. That all works fine. Is there a way to add the "Filter" and "Information" buttons to this second worksheet? I tried to just copy and paste from the first worksheet, but they don't work.

That is what I tried to do at first. But it's an excel function to copy the sheet. You can't even get into design view to change the data provider. So I added a new design grid and navagation pane. I could then change the data provider but for the navagation pane (which controls the Filter button) whatever change I made also changed the original worksheet. So this didn't work out too well. Is the filter button workbook specific, meaning you can only have one, can't have one on each sheet? And how is macro or VB code attached to that button?

Inserting a second query in workbook

I've ran a BI query and successfully saved as a workbook. I would now like to insert a second query into the same workbook on a different Excel tab but I cannot find how to do this from the documentation I have.
If I try an 'Open Query' again it produces the results in a new Excel workbook. I tried (in desperation) copying and pasting from the new workbook into my real workbook but it didn't seem to recognise that sheet as a query when I refreshed the workbook.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Raymond,
Thanks but I have only a BEx Analyser menu option, not the Business Explorer option. I think this is because I am accessing the BEx Analyser on my desktop from doing Start -> All Programs -> Business Explorer -> Analyser.
There is an option to do Start -> All Programs -> Business Explorer -> Business Explorer (SAP BW 3.x) -> Analyser (SAP BW 3.x) which looks more promising as there is a Business Explorer menu option. However when I do Business Explorer -> Settings -> BW server connections I get an Run-time error '61704' internal application error, something I think I need to take up with our IT department.

Error in Bex Analyzer including the filter button command in Callback macro

Hello,
I have the following problem with the function filter button in the Bex Analyzer included in the callback macro:
Because of using 2 hierarchies in the filter the setting drill down to level 2 in the query gives no right output in the Bex Analyzer. The drill down level 2 is not shown. SAP recommends the include of a filter button to solve this problem. With a filter button in the sheet the problem was solved.
But after including the filter button command in the callback macro I get an error in MS Excel.
The callback macro starts, the filter was set by the user and the data was refreshed. Because of the refreshing of the filter the callback function the callback function starts several times. After setting the filter the first time, the following macro avoids the several starting of the set filter function:
Sub CallBack(ParamArray varname())
On Error GoTo err_handler
   Dim lRange As Range
   Set lRange = varname(1)
'Filter entfernend/delete filter
Dim ZeichenFilter As Long
ZeichenFilter = Len(Sheet4.Cells(41, 3).Value)
Dim Filter1 As String, Filter2 As String
Filter1 = Left(Sheet4.Cells(28, 3), ZeichenFilter)
Filter2 = Left(Sheet4.Cells(41, 3).Value, ZeichenFilter)
If Filter1 <> Filter2 And Filter2 <> "" Then
    onAction = True
    onAction = False
End If
'Filter setzen mit einmaligem durchlaufen/set filter and run one time
If onAction = False Then
    onAction = True
    Call Sheet4.BUTTON_55_Click
    onAction = False
End If
exit_handler:
    Exit Sub
err_handler:
    MsgBox Err.Description, vbOKOnly, "Error in " & " setMusterSub"
    Resume exit_handler
End Sub
After the filter was set the callback macro starts the second time. Then the Bex Analyzer erros with the sandglass. The working on VBA is possible, but not the working with Bex Analyer . Values in Excel werent shown.
How can I avoid this error?

Once I am adding VAR_VALUE_1 to the static parameters, the system generates two messages error:
Program error in class SAPMSSY1 method : UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
System error in program SAPLRRS2 and form GET_SID-1

Chart and filter button missing

when I insert a query in a workbook the chart and filter button are missing. We are using netweaver 2004s. is there a way to have them display?

Hi LMM,
There are 2 ways to create workbooks:
1) create a workbook in Excel (create new workbook in Excel thus not via the GUI), insert a query using the Bex analyzer and save using the Bex analyzer.
2) create a query using Bex analyzer, execute the query, save as workbook using Bex analyzer
Option 2) will have the chart and filter buttons.
Option 1) will not have these options.
Assuming you created the workbook using option 1), please recreate the workbook using option 2).
You should now have the chart and filter options.
Please assign points of this solved your problem,
Best Regards,
Filip

Insert Query in workbook

Hi
Can anyone of you please give me some information or any links explaning step by step procedure on:
1. How to copy a query
2. How to insert query in Workbook
Many Thanks

Hello,
1. How to copy a query
Open the Query Designer and choose edit of the query then choose "Save as". This will copy your query. You can also use transaction RSZC to copy queries between different InfoProviders if possible
2. How to insert query in Workbook
Just open the workbook, go to the place you want and click on the option Tools->Insert query (with BW 3.x); With BI 7, just open your workbook, choose a place you want to insert the query and click on the table button, then you have to assign that table to a dataprovider (a query)

How to add more than 1 query in workbook

Hi All,
How do we add More than 1 query in workbook, Can any one provide me steps.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
If you are using BI7 Bex analyazer, please check whether the following explanation helps you:
"Steps of creating workbook and to insert more than one query in a workbook.
When you run a query and it opens in Bex Analyzer you can click the save button and pick "Save as Workbook".
Once you save it as a workbook Click on the "Design Mode" button in the Bex toolbar (looks like an A).
Click in the sheet where you want the new query to go, click the "Analysis Grid" button. It will add the analysis grid to your new sheet.
Right click on the Analysis grid and go to properties.
Click on button to change data provider and select the query you want to attach.
Exit design mode and you should be all set. "

Filter Button on NW2004s queries

Hi
When executing the queries in NW2004s front end the output generated in different to the 3.5 output.
How can the "filter" button be replaced so that all the selection criteria are displayed as soon as the query is generated.
Issue is users execute a query for a particular period, once the query is generated there is no where to check the period the query ran for?
In 3.5 the filter area displays all the selection criteria chosen. How can this be achieved in 7.0 (NW2004s).
Generous points will be awarded for helpful solution.
Thanks,
Jasmine

I am not clear on what you mean when you refer to "selection criteria"
Are you refering to filters in the query or variable values selected by the user?
Anyway, here are a few points to consider.
If you have user input variables or default variable values you can set the web templates parameters to froce the variable screen, so that the user can see all the variables especially if they have default values.
Include the Info Field item and set this to have any of the following poperties that you would like the uer to display.
With a tray. Open or closed.
Headers Visible
Static Filter values
General Text Elements
Dynamic Filters
Display variable.
This should give the users all the information on the report that they require.
I hope this helps.
Cheers

OR Condition in Filter area of a query.

Hi All,
I have a scenario, where i need to implement a condition where I need to put combination or AND and OR condition.
Its something like:
Employment status shd be 'Active' OR
Term date Shd be in cureent year AND
line of Business = '99' or '97'.
I was planning to put these conditions in Filter area of a query, but since there is no option for OR condition. Hw shd I go about implementing this.
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanx.
Pooja.

Hi Pooja,
Multiple characteristics with value restriction corresponds to AND conditions and not OR Conditions.
Alternatively can create Formula on keyfigures which specifies all the conditions. Formula supports all logical ,mathematical,boolean operations.
Hope that helps.

Assigning points is the way to say thanks in SDN.

Imac 27" Intel Core 7 CPU. Screen goes black and will not respond except with a push of power button. Second monitor connected via displayport continues to display fine. Apply Store did full hardware scan and all is fine. Did clean wipe from Mavrick back

Imac 27" Intel Core7 CPU 16 Gig RAM. Screen goes black and will not respond except with a push of power button. Second monitor connected via displayport continues to display fine. Apply Store did full hardware diagnostic and all is fine. Did clean wipe from Mavrick back to Mountain Lion but problem remains. Apple Store can do no more.

I did some more digging, it appears to be a backlight problem only. I can see the screen very dimly if I use a bright flashlight in a very dark room. It also seems to run ok if the brightness is turned down a LOT.
So I'm thinking this is a LED driver board issue or the display itself. I'll open it up and check the connection between the two and see if I can get any more clues. At least I can use it somewhat now by dimming the display significantly...

Query on workbook.

Is it possible to build Query on workbook?
ie: Is it possible to summarize the results of two querys and to display the result in another query.
Problem: Due to wrong definition of field the data get overflowed and results in sql error in query.
Now if i change the field definition thant its a risky process due to the data presence for field in different target.
Instead of that i have planned to built two queries with different selection and summarize the result in third query and attach the third query in webtemplate for web reporting.
Sure points for valid inputs.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Armstrong,
Yes, it is possible to summarize the results of two querys and to display the result in another query by using workbook.
Create a workbook with the two queries in two seperate worksheets(sheet1 & sheet2) in the workbook.
Take a new work sheet(sheet3) for the 3rd query i.e. result query. In this worksheet you copy the result of 1st query and 2nd query and add it
or
You can write a formulia for adding these two query result.
Select the cell which you want the summiation of 1st and 2nd query to be displayed in sheet3. Type = in that cell and click the sheet1 and select the result of 1st query ( we displayed 1st query in sheet1) then type + and click sheet2 and select the result of 2nd query ( we displayed 2nd query in sheet2) then press enter. Now you can see the summiation of these two queries in that cell in sheet3.
Now attach this workbook in webtemplate for web reporting.
I hope you understand the procedure. If you have any clarifications let me know.
Regards,
Patil.

Using command button to select query - WAD 7.0

Hello all
Can anyone please tell me how to configure a command button (button group) to display a particular query in WAD 7.0?
Here's what I mean -
I have a web template with three queries. I have inserted 3 command buttons on the template. I want to assign one button to one query, so that the users can select which of the three they want to view. Which Command do I select in the command wizard to do this? Also, is it possible to hide the other two queries, when one is selected?
Thanks
Karen

Hi,
Here is one approach - Keep three analysis items in the WT. Assign three different data providers to all three analysis items. If you do not want to show any query when the WT first loads, don't assign any query to the data providers. When a button is pushed, you can use the command SET_DATA_PROVIDER_PARAMATERS to assign a query to a DP so that that query will show up.
Other commands that will help you would be SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS using which you can hide analysis items and also, you can use the command BACK_TO_INITIAL_DP_STATE on data providers so that they do not show up if they were blank at the start.
Another way to hide a query is to assign the analysis item to a data provider which is blank.
For your requirements, you will have to put multiple commands behind each button - you can decide which of the above commands suit you best.

Create a Button on a Query

Hello,
I want to know how can I put a Button on a Query.
I want to put a Print Button.
I know that in the left button there is a option to print. I want to know if I can put that option as a Button directly in the web page of the query.
Thank you in advance & Best regards...
Pablo Mortera.

Hi
Yes you can have that option in WAD template. Please find below link for more information
Re: WAD (BW 3.5) - Export to PDF
In BW 3.5, Export to PDF is not available as a standard setting.
This feature is provided in BI 7.0.
With 3.5 you can have an addon like the Camelot Document convertor for exporting to PDF.
Refer to the below link for more info on this...

Check Box or Drow Radio Button on Bex Query

Hi Experts,
Does anyone know to how to put a "Check Box" or "Drow Radio Button" variable on query selection screen?
The user want to switch the order data between open and completed on a same report by a check box / radio button.
Thnaks

Hi Linkzhou,
Why don't you directly use a var on Actual Delivery Date & include/exclude on # cases to report open/closed shipments.
Alternatively, You can achieve the same without making changes to backend, if you are ok with using WAD. In WAD 7, you can use a DropDown webitem instead of a RadioButton/Checkbox webitem since you cannot assign a Command on selection from a RadioButton/Checkbox webitem. Also, you would need to design the same in a web template since this will not be made available on your query selection screen.
In the DropDown webitem, use Data Binding Type -> 'Fixed List of Options' , here you can configure
Open -> under Action use Command 'SET_SELECTION_STATE_SIMPLE', choose your Actual Delivery Date char, Sign -> INCLUDING, Operator -> Equals, Equals -> Member Name, Member Name -> Direct Input -> # [Not Assigned]
Closed -> under Action use Command 'SET_SELECTION_STATE_SIMPLE', choose your Actual Delivery Date char, Sign -> EXCLUDING, Operator -> Equals, Equals -> Member Name, Member Name -> Direct Input -> # [Not Assigned]
Now when the user selects Open option from the DropDown webitem, the data provider query will be filtered for open shipments & vice versa for Closed option.

Hello All
I have solved this problem.
Go to Query panel properties inspector and set Display mode = simple
and drag an af- command button outside of the query panel.
<af:commandButton text="Search" id="cb6" actionListener="#{bindings.Execute.execute}"/>
Thanks
