Identify Bex Analyzer version

Hello experts,
If someone is using Bex Analyzer to execute a query, how do you know which version the Bex Analyzer is?
Some users use version 7.00 and others use version 3.x. We want to track those who are using Bex Analyzer 3.x.
Please help,
Chuong

BEx Analyzer version problem

Hi all,
We are having a problem with RRMX and the BEx Analyzer version that it's launching.
We are running BW 3.5, and all our workstations have both BEx Analyzer 3.5 and BEx Analyzer 7.0 installed. SAPGui version is 6.40 SP26, BEx Analyzer 3.5 has SP12 installed.
Naturally, we want RRMX to launch v3.5 but it keeps launching v7.0. Is there an easy way to configure RRMX to launch the legacy version?
Steps I have tried:
1) Transaction RSZVERSION. This only sets the minimun version of the BEx Analyzer, which does not help us.
2) Registry key LAUNCH_VERSION=LEGACY, under HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SAP/BEx/Analyzer. This had no effect.
3) Modifying BExAddin.xml. This one I found out myself, but it's tricky to distribute. The xml-file has a tag called <LaunchLegacyVersion>, when this is set to False, the correct BEx Analyzer version (3.5) is launched from RRMX. As a default, this is set to true.
Now the tricky part is, that BExAddin.xml seems to be a user-specific file which resides under the current users IsolatedStorage folder (%SystemDrive%\Documents And Settings\%UserName%\Local Settings\Application Data\IsolatedStorage). Under the IsolatedStorage folder, there is a 3 folder deep directory structure, and these directories have names that are randomly generated for each user. This means that I can't possibly know what the BExAddin.xml's path is for every user. Making things worse, the whole IsolatedStorage folder doesn't exist, until a user has started RRMX once.
So the question is: is there a place that I could distribute the modified BExAddin.xml so that the settings would be made global for each user, or is there another way to do this?
Best regards,
Juha Kinnunen

Hi Leo,
Yes I tried the personalization but it seems doesn't work, I don't know why.
I set the personalization in the BEx analyzer according to the help documentation step by step but the variable selection screen still pop up when the workbook is opened.
If I executed the query which contained in the workbook seperately there is no variable selection screen pop up.
And because I don't wanna change the variable, so I didn't uncheck the ready to input.
Thanks for your infomation!

BEx Analyzer comments in ABAP Runtime?!

Hallo, we are using BEx 7.3 in ABAP Runtime (only ABAP Stack). In BEx Analyzer we want to use comments functionality to upload a Word or Excel Document for comments, but the Document Browser we are getting is of BEx 3.x which doen't provide the Button to uplaod the Word/Excel Documents. According to SAP in ABAP Runtime there is no way to upload Word/Excel Documents through BEx Analyzer comments functionality. Ist there any work arround?? Can any body hepl on this issue?
Many thanks in advance,
Regards
Mansoor

Hallo Anass,
thanks for your reply but the Link to SAP-Library shows the document about the Documents Browser in Portal, JAVA Runtime. But we don't have JAVA / Portal environment, we have only ABAP Stack.
The T-Code does not help, cause the BEx Analyzer version we are using is BEx 7.3. It is only the Document Browser which is of 3.x version, because according to SAP Helpline the BEx Analyzer in ABAP Runtime works only with 3.x Document Browser.
Does anybody know a work around to upload the Word documents?
Any how many thanks.

Hi,
We have BI 7.0 and our users are using Bex Analyzer version 3.x and version 7.0 we want to track which users are using version 3.x.
Is there a program or a way how we track these users. There a zprogram for tarcking sapgui version but is there an equivalent program for tracking the Bex Analyzer version?
Thanks for your help.

Hi ,
you can use the technical content. Both analyzer versions have different Statisitc events. Thats the way you can separate them.

Error when using BeX Analyzer 7.0 with Excel 2007

When i try to execute a query in BeX analyzer 7.0 and my microsoft excel version is 2007, there will always have a fatal error showing. However, when i use the Bex Analyzer 3.5 , i could execute the query.
Anyway to solve this problem?

You need to do the following
Identify the SAP GUI version you're using, 6.40 or 7.10, and the patch level.
Identify the BW or BI Add-on and patch level of it.
From there, check to see if the versions you have actually support BI 7.0 and Excel 2007. Reliable Excel 2007 support requires failry current patch levels of both the SAP GUI and the corresponding BW/BW Add-ons..
Do you have access to a PC that has a more recent version of the SAP GUI and BW/ BI Add-on? If so, try using that PC and see if you still have the problem.

Difference between bexbrowser and Bex analyzer

Hi,
   can any body tell me what is the difference between bex browser and bex analyzer and how end users will access the reports and how they access SAP.

Hi
*BEx Web Analyzer *
The BEx Web Analyzer is a standalone, convenient Web application for data analysis that you can call using a URL or as an iView in the portal.
The Web Analyzer allows you to execute ad hoc analyses on the Web: When you have selected a data provider (query, query view, InfoProvider, external data source), the data is displayed in a table with a navigation pane. You can navigate to the data and use other Web Analyzer functions available in the application toolbar. For example, you can change the type of data display, use the information broadcasting functions to broadcast your analyses to others, and create printable versions of your analyses.
In the Web Analyzer, you can save the data view generated from navigation and analysis as a query view by choosing Save View in the context menu, and you can save the ad hoc analysis by choosing Save As. When the query view is saved, only the data view is saved; when the ad hoc analysis is saved, the entire Web application is saved, including the properties of Web items and the layout of the data.

How to save BI report into normal excel sheet in Bex Analyzer

Hi Experts,
version of Bex Analyzer:
Bi addon 7.x
support package 7,patch 1
version 7004.4.0.5
excel-2003
when i am trying to save the report into excel in Bex Analyzer as below:
file-save as->Microsoft excel work.
when I open excel I am getting pop up windowu201Dthis file contains macros with an expired or revoked signature.Since your running under high security level,these macros will be disabled.u201D
when I click ok I am getting one more pop upwindow as u201Cmacros are diabled because the security level is set to high and a digitally signed trusted certificate is not attached to macros.to run the macros,change the security level to a lower setting(not recommended),or request the macros signed by the author using a certificate issued by a certificate authority.
what are these macros? why i am getting this pop up windows
When i opened the excel report is not looks like general excel report.how can I generate general excel report .I should not want to get excel report as in bex analyzer.I donu2019t want to have author ,status of data,chart,filter,information in excel report.
what settings I have to made to save the report in general excel format.
As i am new to Bi please correct me if i am wrong.
Anything is appreciable.
regards,
naresh.

Macros in general are nothing but piece of code in excel.
To allow unsigned macros to run, the Trust all installed add-ins and templates check box must be selected on the Trusted Publishers tab of the Security dialog box. This option is selected by default. If it is not selected (recommended), Excel allows you to run only macros that have trusted digital signatures.
1. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Security.
2. On the Trusted Publishers tab, select the Trust all installed add-ins and templates check box.

Urgent:- BEx Analyzer Workbook as an iView in the Portal

Hi,
Can somebody please tell is it possible to create BEx Analyzer Workbook as an iView in the Portal?
If it is possible, how to create the iView?
Please help.

Hi Nikesh,
The question relates much more to analysing queries.
BEx Designer and WAD are for designing queries,output of which can be seen in BEx AnalyserWorkbook. These are used for analysing the data with some test data entered by user.
But if we want them to be seen as a portal iview report we need to use BEx WebApplication Designer iview as we generally user for WAD n BEx.
Use the Version of the BEx Appl as BW or BI and then give propeties like system name,BEx Query,Appl parameters.
We need to see tht these queries in the same compatible format as with portal.
Please note "BExquery" must be the one which generates your reports.
I am not sure whether i could answer you but hope my idea is clear.
Thanks and regards,
Shaila

Vb error 'run-time error '13', type mismatch when starting SAP BEX Analyzer

Dear experts,
I encountered the above error whenever I opened the BEX analyzer either from the start program or call sap transaction 'RRMX'.
My desktop is currently running BEX 3.50 with patch level 5 and office XP and my SAPGUI version is SAPGUI 6.4 compilation 2, patch level 11.
I have tried installed and reintalled SAPGUI and also downloded the latest patch from the net but still having the same problem.
Any input/help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
NCW

I managed to solve the problem by uninstalling some of the recent Microsoft XP security patch (released in April '05). So, I think the problem is due to the security patch.
Just hope that there will be a fix by SAP so that we can still have the uptodate security patches.

Working with documents via BEx Analyzer not using the portal

Hello,
i read that we are able to create (work) with documents (comments) via
BEx Analyzer. When i want to add a comment how it is described in the
help we get connected to the portal. We dont want to use the portal for
that. Therefore we searched a way to skip the portal. We read that in
BW Versions before 7.0 the portal was not connected but since 7.0 we
have the portal connectivity, but it should also possible to not use
the portal and to access directly the BI Server. I searched for the
Customizing to do so but i could not find it where to switch to the old
logic.
And another question is when we use the Portal with the knowledge base . The documents are stored in the document framework (SKWF). Is it the same as the Datawarehousing Workbench --> documents. This storage we want to use.
Can anyone give me a hint?
Kind regards,
Murat

Hi Murat,
We are also facing the same issue of when trying to create/access the documents from BEx analyzer it is connecting portal , we need to bypass portal and directly access the document browser in BW server.
In your thread you mentioned it is done. So can you please let me know how did you enable the old configuration?. It will be very much helpful to us.
Awaiting for your reply.
Thanks,

Did you try resetting personalized variables? You may have hit that by mistake, happens a lot here. Not sure that would be the case with no values entered however.
