How to forbidden to save report in Excel files

Hi,
I use Edge BO 3.0.
In WEB Intelligence report, is it possible to forbiden to users to save data in an excel file ?
I created an acces level and I denied for Webi report the rules :
Export the report data
save as Excel files
save as CSV files
I just allow users to save as PDF files.
I created a group and give this acces level to this group for Web Intelligence application.
But my users can allways save data in Excel files...
What's wrong ?
    Thank you

Hi,
Following solution might help you to resolve the issue.
In BusinessObjects Enterprise XI, users can save Web Intelligence reports as portable document format (PDF), Excel, comma-separated value (CSV), and other formats to their local computer. It is necessary to restrict this right for a group of users by disabling the Save As option.
Resolution
Here are the steps:
Log on to the Central Management Console as administrator.
Click Folder > folder containing report > Rights tab > Add/Remove.
Add the appropriate group. Click OK. The User Folders window appears.
Click Advanced in the Net Access Column.
Clear the <group name> will inherit rights from its parent groups option.
Clear the <folder name> will inherit rights from its parent folders option.
Expand the Web Intelligence Document section.
Click the Explicitly Denied option for the right to Export the report"s data.
Click Apply > OK.
When the Web Intelligence report is opened, the users will no longer see the Save As option.

  • Steps to save a Query/Report as Excel file in Share folder

    Hi,
    I have a requirement where i need to schedule a BI report automatically on a daily basis and save it in a Sharepoint folder as a excel file.  I have gone through the Forums but didnt get a clear idea on how to proceed this with.  I read about RSCRM_BAPI transaction but i hope we need to do this manually to save the file each time.  Also, in Broadcaster there are options only to send Email & save in Portal. 
    So, if anybody have idea on saving a Query/Report as excel file in a Share folder automatically, kindly help me in suggesting the steps to do this activity.

    Hi
    1. Create Three Floders in AL11 i.e. in Apllication Server. Eg Name it F1, F2 and F3.
    2. First dump the .csv files into F1. (Name xyz.csv).
    3. Then using UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , first check the file is there are not in F1, if yes then rename the file with date and time or date and transfer the files from F1 to F2 i.e xyz06032010.csv.
    4. Then Create a small ABAP program to check the file in F2, if it is there then Trigger the Event, and using that event you execute teh PC.
    5. Then using UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , transfer the files from F2 to F3 i.e xyz06032010.csv
    6. Next day morning F1 and F2 are empty and F3 is having the backup files.
    So use this method, I used the similar logic and it is working fine.
    Timinings are importent i.e what time you need to dump the fule in F1 and what time you need to run UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , transfer the files from F1 to F2 and what time UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script , transfer the files from F2 to F3.
    OR
    1. Create Two Floders in AL11 i.e. in Apllication Server. Eg Name it F1 and F2
    2. First dump the .csv files into F1. (Name xyz.csv)
    3. Then load the data using InfoPackage, through PC.
    4. At the end of the load Attach a simple Program to Move the xyz.csv file from F1 to F2.
    5. So next day the file will come to F1 and the it will load and at the end it will move to F2.
    Else  you can use simple one or two lines of UNIX/WINDOWS (depends on your OS) script to move the file from F1 to F2 , once you load is over.
    While moving the file from F1 to F2 you can append the date at the end of the file and then move to F2, it is use full for future reference.

  • How to export the dashboard reports for Excel in OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0?

    Hi Experts,
    How to export the dashboard reports for Excel in OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0?
    For example:
    Dashboard contains more than one report, and add one export button for downloading these reports for Excel.
    Is it possible to implement this requirement?Thanks.

    There is no direct option, you can try the following workaround.
    Page Option -> Print -> Printable Html
    Then File -> Save Page as
    Choos Save as type as -> All files
    File name as Report.xls
    When you Open the xls file, if you get a pop up saying problem during load just omit it and proceed.
    The report will open in excel.
    Or save the page as html /mht and open it with Excel, this also will work.
    Note: I have tested this in Mozilla
    Thanks,

  • Extract the report into excel file

    how to extract the report into excel file?
    which function module i have to use ?

    Hi Pavan,
    If you want to download the displayed list in the Excel file,then at the time when the list is displayed on the screen, you can go to System option on the menu bar,from there go to List and then Save.You will get a pop up which shows you all the formats of download available.Select the one you want to and mention the target path of the file on the Presentation server.
    Secondly,you can use the T-codes "CG3Y" to download the data from the Application Server to the Presentation Server and T-code "CG3Z" for vice-versa.
    Or else you can use any of the FMs to first download the ABAP list to the ASCII or the BIN format and then convert it to excel using the FM "SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT" or "TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP
    I hope I have tried to answer your query.
    In case of any further queries,please let know.

  • Reg: Download report into Excel file

    Hi All,
    While downloading the ALV report into excel file(System -> List -> Save -> Local file) or (List -> Export -> Local file), i cannot download full report in to excel. Even though the report contains just 200 rows(I can able to download about 90 lines).
    Some reports can able to download all the data, even the report is very big. Currently I am blind to solve, anyone can help me to solve this issue.
    Thanks in advance.

    The most elegant way of downloading ALV display data to EXCEL is displaying the excel in the SAP GUI screen itself.  Select "Excel in Place" and then save it from there. Before that you need to let the VB script of SAP know as trusted macro. This is done by opening a blank excel file then go to Tools > options > Security > Macro Security > Trusted Publishers (tab) > (check) Trust access to Visual Basic Project.  This activation is one time activation. Once you do this you can see ALV display exactly like in normal ALV with all the colors fields etc.

  • HT3345 How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC in numbers 09, on a MacBook Air?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    This is actually not true; I support users who are doing this w/ Excel 2011 (v14.2.2+) for Mac and Windows users w/ Excel 2003 & 2007.  Win users are from finance dept, and who have pasword-protected various budget files.  The Mac users are (surprise) "creative" users, who enter pw to unlock and edit these budget files.
    These files are shared from a Mac server (running 10.6.8 server), and I do have an erratic problem where all users have read-only access to these pw-protected Excel files.  The manual work-around has been to copy the troublesome file(s) and confirm users have full access again.  I also do a shuffling of filenames, so that the new, working file has original file name.
    FYI: the Mac server POSIX and ACL permissions are correct, and don't appear to be source of the problem.
    It's easy an SMB file-locking issue or concurrent users trying to edit these files.  I keep reminding them that Excel is not a database!

    I bought Numbers because my Excel files would not work with Mavericks. How can I import a non-functioning Excel file into numbers? (As of now, the file NAME transfers but data does not.)

    HI Dave,
    I'm surprised you get no message when you attempt opening the Excel document in Numbers.
    I'm assuming Numbers 3.1, since you are running Mavericks.
    Does the Numbers file that opens show any content?
    Does it contain a table?
    How large?
    Does it contain more than one tab (indicating more than one sheet)?
    Do those other tabs contain a table?
    Have you checked those tables for data content?
    There have been cases in the past of imported documents opening with white text on a white background, giving the appearance of containing nothing. Check for this by selecting a block of cells, then applying a Fill colour or a Text colour using the Format button (paintbrush).
    I'd also suggest attempting to open the Excel files using LibreOffice, which can be downloaded from the linked website.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • How to get data from an existing Excel file using report generation toolkit

    I'm trying to use the Excel Get Data vi from the report generation toolkit, but i can't figure out how to turn a browsable path into the right type for the VI.  I've tried using the New Report.vi, but that doesn't work unless you use a template.  It won't open an existing excel file and make it an open report to pull data from.
    Essentially, i have a bunch of excel files that have data in them and i want to use a VI to analyze the data.  So, i'm trying to pull in all the data directly from the excel file so i don't have to reproscess them all into text so i can use the more standard spreadsheet VIs.  But to even convert the excel file programtically in labview won't i still need to be able to open the excel file and get the data?
    Solved!

    I C.
    Got it,
    the reason why I can view it using my Excel file because its in .CSV.
    I open Microsoft Excel to open .CSV file.
    But you can also open .csv file with notepad.
    So, you cannot open .xls with Read Spreadsheet File
