Mass Change of Query Technical Name

Hi there,
Is there a Functional Module/Program that allows a MASS Change of Query Technical Names ?
My company has recently revived new standards of naming convention, hence there is a need to change the technical names of about 2000 BW Queries ?
Please advice

I beleive you cannot change tech names, however u can copy to new ones using RSZC.
Lets wait for some experts replies....

How to find the link between strcture and query technical name

Hi Guru's
How to find the link between Strcture in the query and query technical name. In other way where used list of the structure used in queries?
I know we have table called RSZELTDIR which have the values of strcuture name. from here i do not find any link to query technical name.
Please can anyone help me?
Regards,
Sirisha

Hi ,
For structure and query relationship, the structure has to be a reusable structure( a global one). Then you can right click in on the structure name (in BEX query designer) and select the where used list. You will find all the query names where it is being used.
U can also check out tables RSRREPDIR and RSZCOMPDIR for other query properties.
Thanks,
Amit

Bex Query Technical Name - auto populate

When a user creates a query and goes to save it.... is there a way to populate the technical name box with a suggested (user can amend if required) technical name?
The reason that I want to do this is because there is a strict query naming convention in place here and it is a way of making sure that users follow the correct naming convention.

Hi Anil
Thanks for the reply that is very useful and is one way in which this could be solved.
But what I am really after is a way of populating the technical name box at the time the user saves a query.
I have noticed that at times the technical name box holds the present query technical name.
What I would like to know is, is there a way of filling this with for e.g. ZZ_Z_CA_CM_FINTRA_000, each and every time a user attempts to save a query? The user should be able to amend this if required. The purpose of this is that it highlights the naming convention to the key users and reminds them that they must follow this format.
Forcing a naming a convention as part of authorisations is an option, but we also need to allow for some flexibility.

Find query technical name for a deleted query/workbook in the User Menu

Hi,
When a BEx workbook or BEx query is published in a role, people with that role will see the query / workbook in their user menu.
It is possible to change the caption/title of the 'node' in the user menu so it does not necessarily have the same name as the report.
I am now in a situation where a user tries to run a query/workbook from the user menu, and runs in an error message 'query does not exist on server'.
How can I found out to which query/workbook a node in the user menu refers?
I have tried the Metadata repository but because of the many nodes in the user menu this is a laborious task.
I was hoping to find a table where I could use the role name and node name to find the 'target' report but I haven't been able to find such a table.
Any (other) suggestions?
Many thanks,
Jan.

Hi,
You can publish the workbook to the role and as user have access to the role he can access the workbook also.

BW query tech name changes

Hello Experts,
I have crystal report created on top of BW query, the report works good, but some how its technical name is getting added 1 in the end,example : my query technical name is : FI_q01 but it got changed to FI_q01_1.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Kirsh

Thanks Amit,
I am creating through file->new and connection type sap bw mdx query.
this is happening for some reports only.
Its adding 1 for all the objects:example sales document : its looking like sdq1_1.0doc_num instead of sd_q1.0doc_num , like this its doing for all the objects if the query technical name is changed to sd_q1_1 from sd_q1.
Also, another strange behavior is it is pulling technical name of one query and description of another query.
example: if i have a query on MM with name MM_q1 and description as material mgm and FI query as FI_q1 and description as Finance qry then its pulling for MM query as FI_q1 and description as material mgm instead of MM_q1.
Thanks,
Krish

Function module to create query view from technical name of the query ?

Hi Experts,
I am trying to create webservice definition using function module.
In this code, I am calling function module 'RSCRMBW_REPORT' which requires query view name ( we can see this in RSCRM_BAPI) as a value for parameter i_reportuid.
For the time being I am hardcoding the value but I need to use a function module which will convert techincal name of query into query view.
Can anyone have any idea about the above requirement? Or is there any other way to solve the problem?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You can use FMs CONVERSION_EXIT_GENID_INPUT and CONVERSION_EXIT_GENID_OUTPUT to get query view.
First call FM CONVERSION_EXIT_GENID_INPUT with parameter input as query technical name then it will return Output in the form of GENID .
Pass this GENID as input parameter to FM CONVERSION_EXIT_GENID_OUTPUT to get query view as output.
Eg :
Test for function group      RRI5
Function module              CONVERSION_EXIT_GENID_INPUT
Uppercase/Lowercase
Runtime:        6,652 Microseconds
Import parameters               Value
INPUT                           Y0IC_C03_Q0018_2
Export parameters               Value
OUTPUT                          4D1I916ID7TWS1CK27154WYZ8
Test for function group      RRI5
Function module              CONVERSION_EXIT_GENID_OUTPUT
Uppercase/Lowercase
Runtime:        2,818 Microseconds
Import parameters               Value
INPUT                           4D1I916ID7TWS1CK27154WYZ8
Export parameters               Value
OUTPUT                          0IC_C03/Y0IC_C03_Q0018_2
0IC_C03/Y0IC_C03_Q0018_2 is expected query view.
Hope it helps...

Query Displaying Technical Name instead of Description

Hello,
Is there a setting in query designer that would cause the query technical name to display when the query is executed instead of the query description? I am using BEx 3.5. When I Save As the query to a different technical name and execute the description shows. I would like the description to show as it does with all other queries.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Tina

Hi Tina,
For me the most convienent way is to create a text variable with customer exit, not ready for input.
Assign this variable to Query description in properties of query. So you can be sure to see the current
technical name after saving the query again, without any additonal actions.
You could even combine this variable with any description desired.
Assuming variable created is Z_COMPID, please add code as follows to user exit:
WHEN 'Z_COMPID'.
      L_S_RANGE-LOW = I_S_RKB1D-COMPID.
      L_S_RANGE-SIGN     = 'I'.
      L_S_RANGE-OPT      = 'EQ'.
      APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.

Displaying query view name in web template.

Hi all,
In the standard web template (0ANALYSIS_PATTERN) there is a text box which displays the query title. I need to change this so it displays the name of the query view instead of the query. Does anyone know how to do this?
Many thanks,
Nick.

Hi Nick,
In the template you need not to do any special setting for Query View Name display.
When You use a query view in template that becomes as a data provider, so for every data provider whether that's a query or query view it works same.
You can select to display query technical name or description.
Hope i understood your requirement correctly. If not than please correct me.
Thanks

Work Book Technical Name

Hi Guys,
Why Work Book Technical Name contains 25 Digits not like query Technical Name.

Hi,
What you are seeing in the open dialog as technical name is not really zhe technical name of the workbook. You are not able to determine technical name
for a workbook.
What you see is an ID (COMPUID), which identifies e.e queries, query elemnts
and workbooks unique in BW Sytem and is created automatically. You could take a look, for example, on table RSRREPDIR.

Is It POSSIBLE to change the Technical Name of Z-version Query

Hi Friends ,
I was changed all quereis and cube from standard version to Z version.
For queries, by using rszc , i was changed to Zversion,Now again is it
possible to change the Technical Name of Zversion Query ?
If possible , can you please tell me the process ?

Hi Hameed,
This may be the reason you are getting an error.
The target InfoCube, the InfoCube for the query copies, must contain all the InfoObjects of the source InfoCube (InfoCube of the original queries).
The another reasons may be the copying of queries within the same cube shouldn't be done by RSZC.
It's better to approach the Bex Query designer.
Hope you understood..

How to change Query Description/Technical name of a query

Hi I have couple of questions with Query name changing.
1)Is it possible to change the Technical name of a query?
If Yes how?
2)I could change the description of a query but when the same query is saved in a role how to change its description?
Thanks
Ajay

hi,
open your query in query designer and use button 'save as' then you can change name description.
Remember that when you change technical name it will be completely new query and you will have to add it to your role.

Andrzej
