Issue with Saving the Query output data in Excel format

Hi,
Recnetly we had upgraded from 4.6c to ECC 6.0.
In ECc 6.0 environment, when user try to export the query output , we are getting only XML option to save the data.
But user want to save the data in EXcel format, he was able to do that in 4.6C.
pleas eprovide some inputs, on this issue.
Thanks,
Sanketh.

I cannot for the life of me imagine, why a link to a post in the 'Business One Forum' where one uses ODBC to transfer query-data to MicroSoft Excel is of relevance to the OPs question, even if the same is not a security issue.
Never mind. [note 40155|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/402155] deals with various symptoms in the ALV-Excel combination as as of release 4.6C. There are various others, mostly in components BC-SRV-ALV and BC-ABA-LI - also: I remember that when we upgraded from 4.5B to 4.7C there was an issue with Excel-templates -> the solution was in the release notes somewhere. So, in addition to SMP you might want to check the release notes and/or upgrade guide for solutions.
And yes, moderators ... this is not a security issue, this should go to ECC-Applications/Upgrade.

Sales report issue while saving the query

Hi,
I am working on Sales reports and that i came across a senario and facing a problem, can anyone help me over this
Senario:
I created a structure in Rows and added few keyfigures to the New structure which is in Rows.
After that i added 2 charcteristics.
Now the problem is that when i save the query i am getting the Keyfigure structure first and then characteristics
But, i need the 2 charcteristics first and then i need the Keyfigures
I changed the query as i want it like i placed 2 charcteristics first and then the keyfigure (structure) and the query saved sucessfully.
The problem is that when i open the query again i found that the Keyfigure (structure) first and then the 2 charcteristics
I did it all my possible ways still the problem perstists

mahesh,,,
can u xplain more what xactly is ur need.
"After that i added 2 charcteristics."
so do u want chars & keyfig in Rows only.
this way i dont think u will have report output ..
Take simple e.g. below:
$----
Quantity
Material
Channel112--
1
Channel223--
34
Is this how u want ur report to display?
that means u will need material and channel in rows and keyfigures ($ & quantity ) in Columns.
if this is not what u seek what else is your rek.
sometimes such display helps to understand.
Yes u can add chars in Rows and then add structure of keyfigure.
Yes you can change the sequence of display in Rows among different structure.
But do u still have something in columns.
It is intersection of Rows & Columns that displays result data set...
let us know in more detailed e.g.

Multiprovider Mapping Issue # Values in the query output

Q . I am getting # values for the free chars and no values for some of the KPIs
I have created this report on top of a multiprovider which has a huge number of cubes ( exceeding 10 ) , four DSOs and a couple of infosets , and the query which i am creating should get values from 3 cubes only .
1.I have placed Global Restrictions ( Char Restrictions ) on top of the query with 3 cubes
2.had restricted the KPIs with the relevent infoproviders .
3.I have mapped all the chars and key figures used in this query with relevent infoprovider restrictions
But Still when i execute the Query i see the following formatt of my Output
Free Char          KPI1            KPI2
       filed3                                  10
       field2                                  09
       field1                                  07
       field0                                  06
Not assigned       12.00              0
Not assigned       12.00              0
Not assigned       12.00              0
Please provide me input for why i am getting this kind of out put with Not assigned values and indifferent values for KPIs and what should be done to solve this problem .

Hi,
You mention that there are several InfoProviders underlying your MultiProvider. Check the characteristics and free chars you are using in your query - all of these should be present in all the underlying InfoProviders. For example, if you are using 0COMP_CODE in your query, and 0COMP_CODE is not present in one of the underlying DSOs, then they Key Figure values coming from that DSO will be shown against # (Not Assigned) value for 0COMP_CODE.
Easy way to find out - go to LISTCUBE and enter your MP name. Display all the chars and free chars that are present in your query. Also display the INFOPROVIDER field. Look at the data, and see if there are any characteristics that are blank for all records for any particular InfoProvider. If you find any such chars, then that may be the reason behind your problem.
To avoid this sort of problem, you can use Constant Selection http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/46/91f0f090ea13e8e10000000a155369/content.htm

ITunes Library on NAS - issue with saving the library file

I recently moved my library file and all iTunes data to a NAS. Generally, this setup seems to work (although writing files and editing information is fairly slow). However, when iTunes is open for longer periods, I often get the error message "The iTunes library cannot be saved. The required disk cannot be found." The connection to my NAS drive seems ok, though. I would welcome any ideas or reports of any settings changes that may have fixed the same issue.

It sounds to me like your NAS is going to sleep.
From what I have read on this forum using iTunes with NAS has all kinds of issues.

Issues with using the output redirection character with newer NXOS versions?

Has anyone seen any issues with using the output redirection character with newer NXOS versions?
Am receiving "Error 0x40870004 while copying."
Simply copying a file from bootflash to tftp is ok.
This occurs for both 3CDaemon and Tftpd32 softwares.
Have tried it on multiple switches - same issue.
Any known bugs?

Please check with new version of TFTPD 32 server. The error may be due to older version of TFPT server, the new version available solved this error. Files are getting uploaded with no issues.
1. Download tftpd32b.zip from:
http://tftpd32.jounin.net/tftpd32_download.html
2. Copy the tftpd32b.zip file into an empty directory and extract it.
3. Copy the file you want to transver into the directory containing tftpd32.exe.
4. Run tftpd32.exe from that directory. The "Base Directory" field should show the path to the directory containing the file you want to transfer.
At this point, the tftpserver is ready to begin serving files. As devices request files, the main tftpd32 window will log the requests.

Issue While executing the Query for Pagination using ROWNUM with like

Issue While executing the Query for Pagination using ROWNUM with like.
Database is Oracle11G.
Oracle Database Table contains 8-9 lakh records
1) SQL equal (=)
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE A.REFERENCE = 'KMF22600920'
Execution Time:- 0.00869245 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
2) SQL like (one %)
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE A.REFERENCE = 'KMF22600920%'
Execution Time:- 0.01094301 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
3) SQL like (two%)
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE A.REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%'
Execution Time:- 6.43989658 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
In Pagination, we are using Modified version of SQL Query 3) with ROWNUM as mentioned below :-
4) SELECT * FROM (
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%' AND ROWNUM <= 20 ) WHERE RNUM > 0
Execution Time:- Infinite
ResultSets:- No as execution time is infinite
a) Instead of like if we use = in the above query it is returning the 2 resultsets (execution time 0.02699282 seconds)
b) Instead of two % in the above query, if use one example REFERENCE like 'KMF22600920%' it is returning the 2 resultsets (execution time 0.03313019 seconds)
Issue:- When using two % in like in the above query i.e. REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%' AND ROWNUM <= 20 ) , it is going to infinite.
Could you please let us know what is the issue with two % used in like and rownum
5) Modified version of Option1 query (move out the RNUM condition AND RNUM <= 20)
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%' ) WHERE RNUM > 0 AND RNUM <= 20
Execution Time:- 7.41368914 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
Is the above query is best optimized query which should be used for the Pagination or still can improve on this ?

This would be easier to diagnose if there was an explain plan posted for the 'good' and 'bad' queries. Generally speaking using '%' on both sides precludes the use of any indexes.

How to replace # in the query output ?

Hi experts,
In the query output and for a particular field in a record if there is no value then it is displaying as '#'.
Can we replace '#' with any text or with any other value ?
Regards,
Nishuv V.

hello,
if you display the characteristics as Key u will get as '#'.
You can select as Text,then it will show 'Not Assigned'.
Further, check on these threads:
