How to change Query Description/Technical name of a query

Hi I have couple of questions with Query name changing.
1)Is it possible to change the Technical name of a query?
If Yes how?
2)I could change the description of a query but when the same query is saved in a role how to change its description?
Thanks
Ajay

hi,
open your query in query designer and use button 'save as' then you can change name description.
Remember that when you change technical name it will be completely new query and you will have to add it to your role.

Andrzej

While saving Bex query with Technical name, it says Query already existing

Hi,
I am facing a problem. While saving a query withy its technical name (for example ZQYZMPR_01), it says that query is already existing. But when I search for the query in all tabs like Favourites, Roles, Infoprovider It is not found.
I also checked a view V_REP_JOIN. In this view I find Query (ZQYZMPR_01) in MODIFIED version.
I want to use my previous query instead of creating new one.
Suggest, how can I retrieve my previous query that I am unable to search for.

Searching with descriptions may lead to confusion as there may be similar descriptions to a query but just one technical name. Check the query 'where used list' you may find answers.
Can you check the query in RSZCOMPDIR ? If the query exist here, it must be there in the system. Do the search with exact technical name ZQYZMPR_01 or ZQYZMPR*, you should be able to find. Do not search in specific areas like roles etc..search directly by inputting the tech. name.
Ferdinando - you can delete the query in RSZDELETE transaction. While doing so, it will prompt for removal from all areas like roles, workbooks etc. Say 'yes' and delete, you will be able to assign the technical name to another query.

Display technical name of a query in a web template ?

Hi,
I try to display in a basic web template the technical name of my query with a web item. In this order, I have tried to use the web item 'Text Elements' but how could I configure the latter in order to have only the technical name ?
I have selected 'Display General Text Elements' in properties of the web item.
In the property 'List of Text Elements', what is the couple of values that I have to configure ?
Many thanks,
CG.

Hi,
What you need to do is, keep a TEXT Web Item in the template.
Then do not tick any of the options under Specific. Instead, go to List of Text Elements. In the first column, select General Text Symbol. In the next column type REPTNAME.
This will give the technical name of the query in the output.
Common text elements:
u2212 technical name of the query (REPTNAME)
u2212 description of the query (REPTXTLG)
u2212 InfoProvider (INFOCUBE)
u2212 key date for the query (SRDATE)
u2212 accuracy of the data (date and time) (ROLLUPTIME)
u2212 the person who wrote the query (AUTHOR)
u2212 the last time the query was changed (date and time)
(MODTIME)
u2212 the last person to make changes to the query (MODUSER)
u2212 current user (SYUSER)
u2212 the last time the query was refreshed (date and time)
(SYUZEIT)
Try this. Hope it helps.

Identifying Technical name of a query through a portal link

Hi,
If from a portal link I see a BW report, how can I know its technical name so that I can access it in BEx to see the query definition. The title on the portal appears not to be helping.
Thanks

In the future, please do not post the same question more than once:

Find technical name of receiving query in RSBBS assignment

Dear Experts,
under transaction RSBBS one can assign sender/receiver details. While the technical name of both sender and receiver are entered when createing the RRI, one can only retrieve a compressed ID (i.e. 46F28FNV1L4H1QENI1KKEKWUCAZPAOPRD) for the receiver in transaction RSBBS.
We would like to find a way to determine the technical name of that particular compressed ID. I have already searched the RSBBS* tables, but I cannot get past the compressed ID (field RONAM) in i.e. table RSBBSQUERY
My question:
- Can you provide me a table/view/program/transaction/... that shows the relationship between senders and receivers by means of technical query names (not ID's)?
- Or can you provide me (step-by-step) the relation between different tables and fields that would allow me to do so?
Kind regards,
PJ

Hi Simon,
thank you for your reply. I have researched your proposal, and I can indeed find the relation between my sender query's technical name ZSENDERQUERY_Q001 and the field RSBBSQUERY-RONAM that looks like this: 46U5CEI2BU3U8P8GZOFWWN3GKAZSD_C03 (Mind the name of the infoprovider at the end!).
This information can also be retrieved from transaction RSBBS, where I can enter 1 senderquery's technical name, and which returns me the associated RSBBSQUERY-RONAM values in the column "Receiver Object". Your contribution allows me to create a view to get this information for multiple sender queries from different cubes.
However, I would like to go one step further. From this RSBBSQUERY-RONAM value I would like to get the target/receiving query's technical name that looks like this "ZRECEIVERQUERY_Q002".
This is my ultimate goal as I need to delete all obsolete queries from the BI system, and the associated jumpqueries. Creating a single list by means of a view would help me a lot.
Kind regards,
Pieter-Jan

How can we change the description and name of Process Chain in Production

Guys,
Can anyone please help me to understand how can we change the name and description of the process chains in Production in SAP BI?
Regards

open the process chain and go to edit mode and then press Ctrl+F6 for a rename... you can only rename the description and not the technical name.
If you want to edit PC in production - esp one which has been transported - go to transport connection and change the object changeability for the same to everything changeable ( right click on the same to get this option )

How to check a query element based on the technical name of a query builde?

We often see, e.g., 401OQ2EEM5EJH4GQ5N2HFNE7P as a query element of a query builder. How to know what kind of InfoObj. or R2R link it would be base on the long technical name? We remember there is a table to look these up, what's the table name and how to look for it's description name?
Thanks

hi Ari,
The table you recommend seems to only work for Report to Report link, but not for query element, is there any other table that we can find which InfoObj. is used for this long technical name in query?
Thanks and we have given you rewards points.

Query Displaying Technical Name instead of Description

Hello,
Is there a setting in query designer that would cause the query technical name to display when the query is executed instead of the query description? I am using BEx 3.5. When I Save As the query to a different technical name and execute the description shows. I would like the description to show as it does with all other queries.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Tina

Hi Tina,
For me the most convienent way is to create a text variable with customer exit, not ready for input.
Assign this variable to Query description in properties of query. So you can be sure to see the current
technical name after saving the query again, without any additonal actions.
You could even combine this variable with any description desired.
Assuming variable created is Z_COMPID, please add code as follows to user exit:
WHEN 'Z_COMPID'.
      L_S_RANGE-LOW = I_S_RKB1D-COMPID.
      L_S_RANGE-SIGN     = 'I'.
      L_S_RANGE-OPT      = 'EQ'.
      APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.

How to change infoobject descriptions in a query after change the infoobjec

Hi all,
Imagine that you have 200 queries in production and need to change some descriptions in 2 infoobjects. eg:
Infooject 1 = "Customer Sales View"
Changed to "Cust.View of New MKT"
Infooject 2 = "Material for sales"
Changed to "Material"
Is there any way to change all queries automatically ? Via Report or Function or Transaction ?
Suggestions ?
Best Regards,
Mauro.

Hello Madhukar,
We recently had upgraded to NW2004s and in few queries even when I login with different language for instance Portugese the infoobject descriptions still show up in english and are not changed.
Can you please let me know if I need to update the RSZELTXT table along with other tables. If so can you please forward me the ABAP Code in order to do the same.
Your help would be really appreciated if you can reply promptly as our UAT is pending on this issue.
Let me know.
Thanks
Dharma.
