Insert multiple queries using either WORKBOOK, WAD or Report Designer

Hello Guys
I have a task where I have to insert multiple queries into one single page/sheet & print it out later. For this I can use any one of the tools available: Workbook, WAD or Report Designer.
1. Workbook - Here I have read that we can use a call back MACRO and some other features.
2. WAD - Here I have read that we can use: 1. Multiple data providers (one for each query) & 2. Multiple web analysis items linking to each individual data provider.
3. Report Designer - Since this is the actual 'formatting' tool provided by SAP, I am assuming that this is the right environment to achieve my task.
My question: Which one out of the above 3 tools is actually feasible? Can someone explain me in detail about how to go about this task. Any 'How to..' docs from SAP would also be most helpful.
Regards.

Hi Kashyap,
I have done similar requirement in Workbook,it has better features and more user friendly than others......it depends on the individual...but U cna meet your requirement thru Workbooks...
If the Req are complicated then we go for MAcros ,where in we can satify the critical req,say some sort of Dynamic reqs.
There are lot of threads on Multiple queries in one Workbook....Just search in SDN and u will get lot of Threads on this topic.
Come bak if u have any other doubts.

Inserting Multiple queries into a workbook

Hi Friends,
I have to insert multiple queries into a workbook and each query should be in a different worksheet of the work book.
I have gone thru some of the SAP documentation, for example http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3a/89883989676778e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
In above link under the fatures section it says
If you want to insert a query into the active workbook:
Open a workbook and, from the BEx toolbar, choose Tools ® Insert Query.... The query is then inserted into the current worksheet starting at the active cell
But when i chech in the tools under desig tools, i have lot of options like insert grid,insert checbox, radio button extc, but i dont have "Insert query".
I am using BI7 Bex analyazer, The Only way i am able to insert a new query into a work sheet using BI7 is that first i have to design the work sheet but including design elemenst in my case i am using Grid. But this is not giving the correct display.
Did anyone insert multiple queries in the same workbook? if you can you please let me know how did u acheive this?.
Thanks in adv.
Regards
BN

Hi Rajesh,
Thanks for your response, but in BI7 Bex analyser you dont have the option of insert query from tools.
Rather what i did is (maynot be the correct way), i have executed the query and saved it as work book and in the tools there is an option "copy Sheet". If you select this the same layout is copied to the 2nd sheet, there just change the assignment of design items to a new Dataprovider. Attach the new query to the new Dataprovider.
It works for me, as of now
But i have questions regarding selection screen.
1. In this work book i am embbeding 6 queries and each query individually has variables. When i execute the workbook i get the selection screen, in the selection screen all the common variables are shown in one grouping and other in a different grouping. Is this correct way of selection screen display?.
2. I want to see the variable screen every time i open the work book, how can i acheive this?.

Multiple Queries in a workbook in 2004s

Hello folks,
I am currently working on a report rendering strategy for BI 7.0 2004s installation for our organization. While exploring the various options provided by the system, I notice a whole lot of new look to the Bex Analyzer in 7.0. In the earlier version there used to be options to insert multiple queries in a single workbook, but in the new version , I don't seem to see this as an option. Has this feature been taken out or is there another way that I am missing to do this ?
Are there any how to's for the new Bex Analyzer ?
I appreciate your response ...
Thanks

Nikki,
     All I did was...
     - Inserted an analysis grid in the design mode at the bottom of the first query.
     - Assigned a new query by creating a new data provider in the grid properties.
     - Once I exited the design mode, the new query got refreshed.
Try using a different query for the new one and see if you are still getting that critical error.
Sadly, I am getting the same critical error since this morning when I tried to open the workbooks with multiple queries that I created earlier without any problem. I am investigating in the same direction, keep me posted if you get this solved.

How to embed multiple queries in single workbook

Hi,
I am working in BI 7.0 environment. My requirement is
1) I have 6 different SD queries.
2) I need to create workbook out of each query.
3) I need to embed workbook created from each query into a single work book (each worksheet in workbook should have workbook created from 1single query).
This way the final workbook will have six work sheets with six different queries (all saved as workbooks).
Can anyone please give me an idea to create the workbook.
We are latest version of Excel.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Padma,
You can embed multiple queries in a workbook.Please follow below steps.
1. Open the query in a Bex analyzer (first query)
2. Go to second tab and select a cell and insert anlaysis item (second icon on the Bex Toolbar)
3. Right click and assign query to the data provider.
4. Goto next tab and insert analysis item for third query . Similarly you can insert many queries but embedding multiple queries will degrade performace.
5. Goto workbook settings (last icon in Bex tool bar) for workbook properties like refresh workbook on open. pop up variable screen on refresh etc.
Also please go thru below links .

Multiple queries in a workbook and final result

Hi All,
Is there any way Bw can handle the below.
I have a workbook with 2 queries:
1. Total sales by employee
2. The monthly budget for this employee
I want to put the total sales and budget from each query in sheet 3 of my workbook. Can BW handle this. I'm thinking a macro could handle this, but was hoping BW could. Any advice.
Thanks.

Hi Mike,
To insert multiple queries in a single woorkbook.

A 3.x workbook when opened in 7.0 works fine except for some issues. Variables are shown in text element of 3.x workbook , when this workbook is opened in 7.0 the variables are also shown. By design text element does not show variables except for text variables. There are issues like flickering of workbook when opening the 3.x workbook in 7.0. Variants from 3.x are not imported in 7.0.

Use of Grid in crystal report designer

Hello,
I have a simple question in regards to data grid in crystal report designer. Crystal report designer has a capability to show grid in both design and preview mode, can we make use of any other grid in crystal, how can I make my report look more professional like the text box alignment and placed objects based on using grids?

I am confused as to what you are asking. You can align text boxes and lines/linear boxes using the grid in the report design tool just like other report objects. You can achieve some very crisp looking report designs this way. There are also tools available when you right-click one or more objects to size and/or align those objects within the page.
Fuskie
Who notes you can also change the spacing between guidelines and grid points to provide more control over layout...

How to insert multiple queries into a single worksheet of same dataprovider

Hello friends,
My question is same as this.I want to know how to create a single worksheet(workbook) embedded with multiple queries of same DATA PROVIDER with different VARIABLES assigned to each query.
Please,send me the relevant steps.
Regards,
Mohan Chand Reddy A

Hi,
You need to create one query workbook and rest of the queries you can insert manually from Bex tool -
insert query.
You need to insert query by adding one more tab in the workbook.
Keep in mind only one thing that variable ..if you are going to keep variable it will keep on popping up for user entry in it.
So try to have common variable in the first query and then those value needs to get fed into other query variable as they are running so without any user entry while execution we can see results in all the queries in the workbook.
If you want to insert a query into a new workbook:
Choose the symbol for Open...from the BEx toolbar. This brings you to the screen Open SAP BEx:
Select Queries from the left column.
Select a query from all those available. The queries are arranged according to InfoProviders.
Double-click on the required query or choose OK.
If you want to insert a query into the active workbook:
Open a workbook and, from the BEx toolbar, choose Tools ® Insert Query.... The query is then inserted into the current worksheet starting at the active cell.
If you want to insert a query into a workbook template:
Create a workbook template.
Insert the query into the workbook template.
Thanks and regards

Insert Multiple records using Database adapter with Stored procedure func

Hi All,
I want to insert multiple records on a database using a stored procedure. I wanted to insert those records using a Database Adapter and the Database adapter should be invoked by a Mediator.
Can somebody suggest me with ideas whether it can be acheived with OOB capabtilities in SOA suite or not?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Thanks,
Shiv

The use case you want to achieve is feature supported by the DBAdapter and it is possible to invoke the same from mediator.
Please have a look at the oracle documentation and you should be able to get the necessary information.
The below links should help you as well:

How to run multiple queries in a workbook

Hi,
I have 3 queries in a workbook with the same variables. How can I refresh all the 3 queries when I change the variable value. It allows me to refresh only one query at a time but I need to refresh all the 3 queries at once whenever variable value changes.
Thanks,
Kal

Prakash,
Do you have any more information on where i would find the setting to;
"Refresh individual queries within a workbook (Single DataProviderRefresh)"
is it on the
i) dataprovider setting
ii) workbook setting
iii) elsewhere?
many thanks

Use dotx template as Crystal Report design template

Hi,
i have dotx (ms word with header and footer) files. how can i use it as template file for the crystal report design ?
anyway i can do this ? or any way i can use the dotx template files as background in my crystal report ?
i google alot but look like no way to link the dotx (ms word) to crystal report..

hi Jiann Neow,
you can't use a dotx as a template in any automated way to create report files.
you can add them as a background though by going to Insert > OLE Object and adding them via OLE. please note though this is only good for 1 page objects.

Embedding multiple queries into a workbook in 7.0

Hi,
we are currently upgrading to 7.0 and I am really struggling to figure out how to embed mulitple queries into a single workbook. The input query function no longer features on the Analyser toolbar. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thankyou.

We have a need to use the same query multiple times in the same workbook. Query results could be on separate pages, or on same page of the workbook.
However, all of the results areas react to filtering and drilldowns done from any page and the end result is that the all results are always the same on each page.
Ideally, the first page would be a summary of all sales, then maybe the second would be a summary of product line sales, then the third to be a summary of customer sales.
I know I can create new queries for each of these views, but there must be a better way. Has anyone discovered a method??

Parellelism vs multiple queries using scheduler

Hi,
I am trying to run a query that is going to insert the data in a table (TEMP_RESULT).
At very high level lets just say that I have compare each row from "t_customer" with each row in "t_region". The result is inserted into a table.
I am HASH PARTITIONING "t_customer" (32 partitions) on 'Customer_ID' and "t_region" on 'REGION_ID' (16 partitions).
I am trying to get the best timing possible. The question is should I just let oracle use PARALLELISM and run this in one chunk or should I loop?
My current approcah is I loop through each 'Customer_ID' and compare it against all 'REGION_ID'. Assume nothing else is running on the Database, then what otion would be the best:
1) Let it just run through 1 process?
2) Would it be bettter if I start a second process for another 'CUSTOMER_ID' and have a few of these running simultaneously?
3) Another option I am trying to consider is to run 4 processes each process will handle a partition of the REGION table. I just need to somehow identify which 'REGION_ID' would fall in what partition and pass the values such that I have my where clasue something like "WHERE region_id between :min_region_id and :max_region_id"
with t_customer as
The customer table. For the sake of simplicity I only have 5 codes per customer.
My real values are 7385 customers with 1269 codes.

Thanks.

The calculation is not as simple as it was stated here. I do need to store it, becuase we want to keep track of changes to the calculation.
Here is what the calculation is really like.
You were right, just the the base join the PARTITION-WISE join worked great. Howevere, I have to also group the data with another set. That's where the timing is really killing me.
The "internal_code" table is only about 12,000 records, do you think partitioning that table would be of any help.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Insert multiple rows using Cursors.

I am trying to insert rows into a table based on information from another table.
For example:
When Table 1: Num_Rows = 100 my proc will insert 100 rows into Table 2 with relevent data.
Do I need to use a Cursor and iterate through Num_Rows doing an INSERT each time? Is there a better way to do it other than using Cursors?

It is not about using cursors or not using cursors. All SQLs wind up as cursors in the Oracle Shared Pool. So there is no such concept as not using cursors. Oracle needs to parse and compile and execute SQLs as cursors.
The issue is WHERE* you do the work?
Do you use the cursor (SQL) to do it for you? Or do you pull the data into another language, like PL or Java and process it there?
And the performance mantra in this case is a very fundemantal Maximize SQL and minimize PL/Java/etc+.
So do not do in PL/SQL what you can do in SQL only. It is a lot slower to pull data from the SQL engine into the PL engine. And then push that very same data from the PL engine back to the SQL engine. Like the following for example:
-- poor design, poor performance
for employee in (select e.* from emp e where e.deptid = 123 )
loop
insert into tab2 values( employee.empid, employee.name );
end loop;You do not need to use PL (or Java) in this case. The SQL language is more than able to do this better and faster than any other language... as it is closer to the data.
So the following is far more optimal code. Instead of the above PL/SQL code, we can simply do it as:
-- optimal design: maximizing SQL and letting it to as much of the work as possible
insert into tab2 select e.empid, e.name from emp e where e.deptid = 123;

Insert multiple queries using either WORKBOOK, WAD or Report Designer
