How to move / hide obsolete BEx queries

Hi,
We have a lot of obsolete BEx queries on our BW system. We don't want to delete them, but we want them to be hidden from the users.
I thought that we could move them to a special InfoArea...
Is that a practicable way or is there a better solution?
Thank you for your help!

Hello Frei
Doing it from BEx query Designer is time consuming.  You can use RSZCOPY T-code to to rename and then RSZDELETE To delete all the queries you want.
For RSZDELETE you can give wild card selection for deletion.
Just checked in the system.  T-Code for copy is RSZC and you can do mass copying.
trick: Select your Source and Target Info-Provider , give the same input in both the fields.

  • How to create hierarchies in Bex queries?

    Hi All,
    I am new to query designer tool,
    can you please help me how to create hierarchies in Bex queries using query designer tool?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi,
    directly you can't create hierarchy at bex level.
    First you have to maintain hierarchy data source at source or bw side, based on your needs.
    Later you can load data to hierarchy, after that at bex level you can activate hierarchy options to related info object properties.
    To maintain hierarchy we need to enable hierarchy options at related info object(RSD1, hierarchy tab, select with hierarchies) maintenance level.
    For example: info object - 0GL_ACCOUNT and you need hierarchy structure on gl account.
    For that we need to have hierarchy data source and will load data from ecc.
    Later we can develop reports on gl account in hierarchy fashion.
    On what object infoo bject you want create hierarchy report and have loaded hierarchy data?
    Thanks

  • How do i access multiple bex queries in one crystal reports??

    Hello Experts,
    I have 10 cubes and 30 bex queries on it and i need to create 3 final crystal reports on these 30 queries.
    I am on BI 4.0 & CR 2011. but my client is not on correct SAP patch ie., he is on 15+ but he must be on 23+ to access multiple bex queries on CR 2011 Database expert. (I am unable to see bex queries in Database expert to link couple of bex queries)
    And my client env doesnt have SAP EP for SAP BW Netweaver Connection to create a connection to access cubes or queries in IDT.
    Do my client env need EP? so that SAP BICS Connection will work in IDT?
    How do i approach to achive this...
    Thank you...

    Hi,
    have you checked the option "allow external access" in your query? SAP Toolbar will find all queries but the database export needs this flag to be set.
    Using multiple queries within one crystal report is using the "multi database join feature" of crystal reports. You can link your queries by key fields and crystal will join them in memory. So when there are many queries or many datarows this can be a huge performance killer.
    Actuallly one of our customers is running a report which has more than 20 BEx queries linked together. It runs just fine.
    Please be sure to set your joins correctly. E.g. crystal will try to make a join on the "key figures" sturcture if you let it create a suggestion or it will try to link on all fields of an infoobject. This will bring MDX errors.
    So you should be setting your joins correctly - the [infoobject]-[20infoobject] fields are fine for that.
    I hope you can use some of my words.
    Regards

  • How do I delete old Bex queries not used within 13 months?

    Hello all,
    I have a large number of Bex queries that are no longer used (3000 - three thousand).  I'd like to delete any query that has not been used in 13 months.
    Can someone provide some guidance?
    Also, is there anyway to archive old reports?
    Thank you.
    JIm

    Murali,
    The RSZCOMPDIR table contains this information - thank you.
    The only remaining challenges are:
    1) how do I interpret or convert the values in the LASTUSED field?  The numbers are of the magnitude of 20,060,601,210,130.
    2) Once I determine which queries were not used within the last 13 months, how do I delete them?  Is it as simple as writing a SQL statement against this table?
    Thanks you.

  • How to create Universe on BEx Queries

    Hi,
       I am very new to create Universe based on SAP BW Infocubes or BEx queries. I actually need to create reports based on BEx queries. I am able to log into SPA BW using Universe connection and I see only Infocubes. Where can I find BEx queries. Is there any specific document that helps here.
    Please help me.
    Nanda

    Hi,
    You can select the queries which are part of the cubes. And make sure that the query is part of the cube.
    If still not listing then from Bex Query designer open the query from the cube and enable 'set to allow external access' in the properties of a query.
    Now, the query should be available in the Universe Designer.

  • How can I hide non visible layers during test movie ?

    Flash CS5
    I have a layer I am using for construction purposes, it shows though in test movie. If I go to publish settings and untick include hidden layers on the flash tab, when I test movie, my cars don’t appear along the guide lines at all and just pop into view as movie ends.
    How does one hide turned off visibility layers during test movie without affecting hidden guide lines ?

    If I have a layer that is only acting as a guide for laying things out or whatever, what I do is right click that layer's name and select "Guide" from the menu that appears.  It will not appear in when I use Test Movie

  • How to design a optimized universe from SAP BEx queries

    Hi Team,
                  I would like to know some of the queries :
    1.How can you design a optimized universe from SAP BEx queries in the sense which gives you more performance
    2.What are the differences between Non SAP sources like Oracle,SQL and SAP sources in designing the Universe.
    3.Can we create a Derived table from an SAP source because i know that the Schema is not created for BEx queries,cubes.
    4.What are the advantages of having oracle as a source then SAP source.
    Can you please elobarate the above queries.
    Regards,
    Pradeep P.

    Hi,
    1. Check Ingos Blog on SDN ther are some PDF for performance regarding WebI on BW
    2. On RDBMS Source you have to design your universe. On OLAP Source like BW you generate the Universe and cant customize it a lot.
    4. Good question. In a BW all your logic is already in place. On a RDBMS you have to build your logic in a universe. But there are a lot of differences.
    Regards
    -Seb.

    Hi Friends,
    How to come to know that the BEx queries created whether in 3.X or 7.X.
    Some queries created in 3.X and some in 7.X in my system. How to know that the query created in which version. Where we can find such information.
    It might be smaal isue for you. I searched the form but i haven't got information which i am looking for.
    Thanks &Regards,
    Revathi

    Hi Revathi,
    Just check if the below can help you.
    You can use table RSZCOMPDIR
    Enter Query Technical Name in field COMPID 
    Field VERSION in the Table RSZCOMPDIR can tell you the version.
    if the value is below 100 then Query is in 3.x versionu2026
    If Greater Than 100 means, it is already Migrated to higher version which is 7.X
    Hope it helps,

  • How Many SAP BW BEx Queries can be embedded in a Universe

    Hi,
       I need to create 5 reports based on five different SAP BW BEx Queries. These are charts with 3- axes i.e. X,Y,Z.
       The example requirement is to create Line charts (Vertical Mixed Line Charts) and deatils are as follows: The chart should show CPU Utilization % for different servers (eg. Servers1,2,3,4,5) for each day in a particular month.
    Axes details:
    X- Axis - Date eg: 01 /09/2010 to 30/09/2010
    Y-Axis - CPU Utilisation Percent
    Z-Axis - Servers from 1 to 5
    The above detailed chart comes from a BEx Query . In this way there are four more BEx queries which should give four other charts.
    My query is: Is this possible to have five different BEx queries in a single Universe and Create 5 different charts(one chart from each BEx Query) in a single tab as in the current manual report.
    (All the five Line charts should be downloadable to a single sheet in Excel)
    One more, should I use Web intelligence only? Is any other tool that helps for this requirement.
    Please advise.
    Nanda Kishore.

    Answers for your qns:
    Is this possible to have five different BEx queries in a single Universe ?? NO
    Create 5 different charts(one chart from each BEx Query) in a single tab as in the current manual report. ?? YES
    All the five Line charts should be downloadable to a single sheet in Excel ?? Possible- YES
    should I use Web intelligence only? *WebI * or  Data Federator
    Nanda Kishore,
    As you are in SAP BI, I suggest you to go with BO Universe==>>WebI or DataFederator.
    Solution for your problem:
    Sol1 : Why you are creating 5 BEx queries?? Is there any calculations or restrictions??
    YES, then Design 5 Universes for each BEx query.
    @ WebI Report: Develop report/chart based on Universe-1 and in BO query panel click on Add Query and do it for 4 other Universes.
    Save all Charts in single report. (After running second time query, it will prompt for 3 opt's: 1. Insert new report  2. Insert data with in the existing report 3. Indulge objects without creating new report )
    Here, go with Opt:2 or Opt3 or opt:1, no problem. And develop all Charts in single report by just dragging & dropping chart type and objects to it.
    Now your problem solved.
    Sol2: If no need of 5 BEx queries: Just drag all the Characteristics, Keyfigures and other what you want for Charting.
    @Designer: Design Universe on top of this BEx master query.
    @ Report : use this Universe and drag objects to 5 diff charts.
    Hope you got it.
    Thank You!!

  • How to activate a set of BEx queries.

    Hello everybody!
    Is there any functionality to activate a set of BEx queries, e.g. something for queries like RSDG_IOBJ_ACTIVATE for info-objects?

    Hello Dmitry,
    I don't think there's any need to "activate" BEx queries, unless you mean to activate them from the Business Content (in that case, I think you can only go through the Transport Connection tab in RSA1).
    Hope it helps,

  • How to add a filter in multiple BEx queries at once

    Hello everybody,
    my requirement is to add a generic filter (characteristic restriction) in more than 30 BEx queries. Instead of adding the filter in each query one by one with query designer, I was wondering if there is a tool (eg. a transaction or a query designer function) that can add this filter to all desired queries at once.
    Does anybody know if such tool exists??
    Thanks very much,
    Andrea

    Hi,
    I think it is not possible. if your all query on one info provider, then you can make filter reusable for info provider and use it when you are creating query again on that info provider.
    First, Restrict characteristics in filter as per your requirement and then right click on it and click on save as - give description and technical name. then save it. now filter is reusable

  • WebI report based on Universe upon SAP BEx Queries:Prompt issue

    Hi,
      I am creating Web Intelligence report using Universe based on SAP Bex Queries. In WebI report I created a filter condition as I need to run report based on two specidc dates. I need to schedule report to run 2nd of every month to show data for last month. At present I have the following filter : date between 'Start Date' and 'End Date'. 'Start Date' should always be 'first date of previous month' and End Date be always must be 'Last date of previous Month'. How to do this. The solution I thought would be to create  variables at report/universe level ('first date of previous month' and 'Last date of previous Month') and use in the filter using 'Object from this Query' option.But this 'Object from this Query' option is missing in the prompt.Is there any work around to achieve this.? Could you please help me.

    Hi all,
    I have a related question too.
    I have 2 queries and need a Combined BEx query written on this for reporting. (WebI)
    In the 2 queries, there is a Field which needs to be restricted.
    But this field should not be restricted in the Combined BEx query.
    So I thought of restricting the Field at the report level. But in this case, the user gets a prompt to enter a value for the field.
    And this is not desirable as per the requirement.
    COuld you please tell me if there is another way of handling this without the user being prompted to enter a value while the report is being run, but still I need selection at the Field level.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Srilakshmi B
