Formatting the work book

Hi,
I need some help in work book formatting. I am explaining the scenario below
I have a work book with 3 charactristics and 2 key figures. on the 6th column I have put some comments.
When I drill down by another characteristic i would expect my comment column to be shifted to righ hand side to accomodate the new characteristic rather hidden or overwritten by the drilled down characteristic.
This is working fine when i run the report in BW 3.x where I have the following setting.
DISPLAY : Adjust format after data refresh
Display filter cells for structures
INTERACTION : Enable interactive functions
COLUMNS : Adjust to whole column
But this functionality does not work in BW7.0. Could anyone please tell me the setting in BW7.0 to accomplish this.
Appreciate your help.
Regards,
Bill

any help in this. This is slightly urgent. point will be given to the right answer.

Youcan no longer display a workbook. You receive an error message when opening: <Internal error>: 1201 document storage
Cause and prerequisites
In very rare cases, when you store a workbook, you might not be able to open it again.
Solution
Function module BDS_PHIOS_GET_RIGHT has to be changed so that the last available version of the Workbooks can be displayed.

Cant see the free characteristics in the work book?

Hi all,
I have added the free characteristics in the workbook, but cant see those free characteristics in the workbook!!
How to see the free characteristics in the workbook!!
Thanks

hi pooja,
just open your query in Bex Analyzer,
there u will find three buttons above the data table display.
then when u will click on Filter tab, u will get all the free characteristics and variables used in your query.
then u can go to workbook, switch to design mode and make them visible,
may be at the time of creation of workbook, it(filter) would have been removed and saved as workbook.
hope this will help u

Renaming of the Work book

Hi,
Can we rename the existing workbook...........

Hi,
you can only change the logical name or description of either a query or workbook.
To change the description of a workbook you have to open the workbook, goto the menu Business Explorer -> Save -> Change workbook title.
To change the name of a query you have to open the query, then click on the button Query properties.

How to display the Overall result value at the top of work book

Hi,
How can i display the value of Overall result(Sum of the Total) column at the top of the work book in Text field.
Thanks
Sreadhar

Go to Query Global properties in Query designer and you can find a setting to show result rows on top. This setting will show overall result as first row in the report. But I don't think you can show it in Text field in WB.

Embedding 2 queries within the same tab in a work-book?

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to embedd multible queries within a single tab in a Workbook?i.e. can we define a cell range in which a particular query is to be embedded and a different cell range within the same tab for another query?
Thanks
Aravind

Hi,
It is very much possible.
Just insert the 2 queries at different places and save the work book.
In the properties you can so the the result of the 2 queries do not overwrite and ouput is adjusted accordingly.

Adding additional Columns in Work Book

Hi Experts,
I have requirement to additional columns in work book. I have Trial balance amount .I want to create 2 more columns based on the Trial balance column.if trial balance amount is +ve value then it should go to Gross amount column .If trial balance is -ve amount then it should go to depreciation Amount Column.
How can I add new columns to the work book.please suggest me with formula.
Thanks,
Suryam.

Hi Suryam,
From what i get of ur requirement, I expect there is a column which shows Trial balance. And you are using a workbook, hence the format would be a static format and no drill downs etc. would be done in the report.
You can create a column and use an Excel formula to achieve the same.
Gross Amount Column:
IF Column Cell (of trial balance) >= 0 then value = the Column Cell (of trial balance)
Depreciation Amount Column:
IF Column Cell (of trial balance) < 0 then value = the Column Cell (of trial balance)
Hope this helps!

Work book taking longer time to open

Hi,
We created a workbook and embedded one input ready query in it. The query when executed separately takes 1 minute to load. But when the work book is opened for the same selections, it takes 3-5 mins.
There is no Macros written in the workbook and no functions are called while loading work book.
What might be the reason for this. Is there any way by which we can improve the performance?
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Seetharaman

Hi there,
Open BEx Analyzer.
Click on global settings (before opening the workbook) and mark the option "Repair workbook while running" (option available since BEx Analyzer support package 5 and above)
Now open the workbook (it will still take the 3-5 minutes).
Now save the workbook
Remove the option you have just marked before ("Repair workbook while running").
Close BEx Analyzer and test it again.

Error After sharing work book

Hello All,
I modifed a report by adding 2 news columns from a folder(which is based on table2). I am able to genrate the work book successfully.
So i shared the same work to another user , but while user is running the report he came across an error
saying "Invallid Comination of Joins Invloving Outer Joins - table1 -> table2 (outer) ".
How can this be possible. If there is something wrong in join conditions work book should not work for me.
It is working fine in my case but its giving error when the shared user is running. Please let me know the reasons for this.
Kind Regards,
Kumar.

Hi,
I think your answer is in Tamir's reply. If disabling fan trap did not resolve your user's issue, then the report needs to be rewritten. Even if it did resolve your user's issue, the report needs to be rewritten.
It would be difficult for us in this forum to help you to do this.
However, things to look for: How are your folders constructed? One folder, one table? One folder, many tables as in custom folder or database view? If you are joining folders together in the report where any or all of the folders are constructed with many tables included in them, you run the danger of hitting the fantrap issue - especially, if outer joins abound. Try flowcharting your report and see what that tells you. In Discoverer Plus, choose Sheet \ Show SQL\ copy the sql and place in your favorite sql tool. I suspect the answer to your issue will become obvious then.

Nancy

Bex Work book unable to save due to client status

Dear All.
Our basis team has made a client in a way that there is no way to do direct change on the production server, every thing we have to do through transports it is ok but the problem is coming if i try to run the query in Bex Analyzer and try to save the work book it gives me message that Changes to Repository or cross-client Customizing are not permitted.
Please suggest what to do in this case or what is the best practice for client configuration in BW.

You can't make any direct changes in the system when \Changes to Repository or cross-client Customizing are not permitted.
In which client you have got this message ? Qual or Prod
even saving workbook can be done only in development system -> and later transport to target client

Hi,
I am not sure how to do it in browser but if you have workbook id and you want to know all the queries inside it, then follow the below given procedure,
Goto table RSRWORKBOOK put your workbook id and collect all the GENUNIID's.
Now goto table RSRREPDIR and copy all the GENUNID's you will get required list of queries.

How to save the work book globally

Hi Janardhana,
We can save workbooks to roles so that all users who are assigned to that role can see and use them. Another way to save workbooks is in the user's favourites folder. I think by Global, you are referring to the first option...
