Cannot connect to specific Cube through BI Semantic Model for Power View in SharePoint 2013

I'm trying to create a connection to an Analysis Services Cube through a BI Semantic Model connection in SharePoint 2013 to create a Power View report. I'm able to connect to other cubes on the same server, and I have SQL Server 2012 SP1 Update 9 installed
so it's not a versioning issue.
I've captured a log of two different connection attempts to show this in action. I can't post links, but just send me a message if you need it, just in case there's any interest in it. The first is a successful connection to an alternate cube
on the same server, and the second is an unsuccessful attempt that produces and error with "Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred.".
On the SharePoint side, the error is reported as:
Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions.AdomdTestConnectionException: Internal error: An unexpected exception
occurred.
This cube was working the previous day, but it has since been edited and it no longer works now but there's no clear reason why. It can still be queried directly through SSMS with MDX queries, and produces no errors.
Any help is much appreciated,
Ryan

Hi Ryan Myers,
According to your description, when you tried to connect to an Analysis Services Cube in SharePoint 2013 through BI Semantic Model, you get the error message: Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred. But the MDX queries works fine in SSMS.
It's hard to give you the exact reason that cause this issue based on the limited information, please validate if the connection string is correct. Besides, we can troubleshoot this issue by using the Windows Event logs and msmdsrv.log.
We can access Windows Event logs via "Administrative Tools" --> "Event Viewer". SSAS error messages will appear in the application log.
The msmdsrv.log file for the SSAS instance that can be found in \log folder of the instance. (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSAS11.MSSQLSERVER\OLAP\Log)

How to Change Analysis Services Server for Power View

I can't seem to figure out how to change what SSAS server/instance that is used to build the cubes for Power View items uploaded to SharePoint. I tried changed the trusted servers listed in the Excel Services service application but if I remove the original
SSAS server (which of course is a test server, not to be used for production) and have only the prod SSAS instance listed the reports fail to load with the generic 400 error. Is there another setting that I'm missing?
Thanks,
Kyle

Hi ,
Since this issue is related to SQL Server, I will move this thread to SQL Server forum. Sometime delay might be expected from the job transferring. Your patience is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

Unable to view enhanced field in Data Source

Hi All,
We recently upgraded our R/3 system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0. Now when we are enhancing the data source, the field is visible in the Extract Structure. But we are unable to view it in the data source. We checked out in RSA2 the enhanced field attribute is specified as 'Field in OLTP and BW Hidden by SAP'. We have written code to modifiy the ROOSFIELD table to make the enahnced field visible. But this is the problem with all the data sources. Whenever, we have to enahnce, we have to go thru this process to make the enhanced field visible.
Is it like that we missied out any patch in ECC 6.0 while upgrade? If any person faced similar situation, please help us.

Hi Ravi,
I think you are missing a step here. As soon as you enhance your datasource with new fields, by default, those 2 check boxes are checked ( Hidden and Field in User exit only). You go to RSA6, edit your datasource and here, you can uncheck these added fields so that you can use them. You do not need to write any code to change the fields settings in ROOSFIELD table. Do the step I mentioned above after enhancing and you should be good. Hope it helps.
Thanks and Regards

How to build high usability navigation for Power View on SharePoint 2013?

I have Power View on SharePoint 2013. I have both SSAS Multidimentional and Tabular model in use.
I have several Report.drlx file in Report libary in SharePoint.
When I click the file, it works fine, but I feel that there are usability problems like:
A) Getting back to SharePoint site is not intuitive. Difficult to find home.
B) Diffucult to move between report to another. Need to return Document library.
What is best practise for displaying several Power View reports on SharePoint?
Kenny_I

Hi Kenny_I,
Just as you said, we cannot directly navigate to Home page when we view an .rdlx report in SharePoint site. We need click the Arrow to go to the previous page (Document Library), then click “Home” to navigate to Home page. If we want to move from a report
to another report, we should still use the same way. This is by design.
If you want to jump from one report to another report, we can add a hyperlink to a text box in a sheet or view. Personally, I understand your feeling and how frustrated when you find this issue. So, it is my pleasure to help you to reflect your recommendation
to the proper department for their consideration. Please feel free to submit your situation on our product to the following link:

Using Power Query to import image files for Power View

I am trying to use Power Query to import image data from a SQL Azure database for use in Power View. I've selected both the source image table and the ?images table in the workbook query. The files seem to load as binary data in the Power
Query editor but when loaded to the data model with Power Pivot, the field becomes "text" type rather than binary. Does anyone know the procedure to use PowerQuery to load image files into PowerPivot?

Hi,
We currently do not support loading binary data from Power Query into the Power Pivot data model. This is something we'd like to address soon. For now, you will need to use the Power Pivot import capabilities if you want to achieve this.
Sorry about the inconvenience - we will try to enable this feature over the coming months.

What Performance Load for simulationg end-use load for Power View and Excel Services?

I have SQL Server 2014 DW, OLAP Cube, SharePoint 2013, Power View(Silverlight) and Excel Services.
I would like to monitor performance with perfmon and analyse results with PAL.
But how to generate end-user load for 1000 users? We would have several end-user roles to simulate each clicking differents slicers in reports.
What tools are capable for this?
Any experiences about HP Loadrunner or Neoload with MS BI tools?
Does Microsoft have any compatible load generation tool?
Kenny_I

Simplest:
Write an MDX script with randomized parameter to be executed in a loop using SSMS.
Run the script in 50 SSMS query windows. Run it on 20 machines (20x50 = 1000).

Different behavior for Power View between Excel and Power Bi Site

Hello,
this problem is driving me crazy...
I have a PowerPivot Data Model and created a PowerView that includes three charts for the
Year, Quarter, Brand and a matrix that allow me to drill down the different projects. Each Project in the matrix can be clicked to view the project details.
The strange thing is that in Excel on my Desktop and in the Power Bi App for Surace RT when i press the Project in the drill down the previous filters remains set, while if i do the same in Power Bi Sites the filters are lost. I tried with Chrome and IE
but behavior the same. Am i missing something?
Thank you so much

Dear Will,
thank you so much for your reply.
I'm attaching come screenshots from Power bi site i remove the clases and the data, but you should have an idea of the scenario. Actually I'm not setting the Year and Quarter filter as view filters in the Power View.
I'm just using Cross filtering and i realize that the behavior is different between Excel Desktop and Power Bi Surface RT app and the bi sites (with all browsers).
First image with 2014 set (just clicked on 2014) the data on the Matrix have been deleted.
After i select the drill down:
Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

Where can I find metadata for Power View reports created in sharepoint 2013.

I am looking for what I would assume is the sql server tables that would hold the MDX (DAX) Queries for the power view reports. Example my customers may create say 30 reports and I need to know quickly if an attribute I am changing is in those reports.
How can I find out what report(s) are using that attribute/measure? Not sure that it matters but using sharepoint 2013 on premise and connecting to Analysis Services (molap).
Ken Craig

P.S. if this is still not making sense create a power view report in SharePoint from a SSAS cube. Save that power view report in SharePoint.  The power view report should
have a couple of measures and 1 or 2 dimension. Open the report just to confirm it is saved correctly. Now go to SSAS and rename 1 of the measures or dimensions that you used, Save and rebuild your olap . If it’s a calculated measure
you just need to save olap.    Now open your power view report and notice that that measure/dimension you changed is no longer in the report.
IN one hand it is great that reports do not error and break; however, on the other hand the users might not know what measure/dimension changed and then be lost/mad because the report no longer
works like they want. In my opinion it would have been better if the power view broke with an error message that it cannot load because measure x does not exist than to just load fine.
In any case I need a method to know when a dimension/measure is modified what reports are using it.   Another example is this could even be a case where the dimension values are getting
modified and we need to potentially make a update to any power view/pivot using this dimension as a filter?

Creating Custom Theme for Power View Clustered columns chart

Helllo...
Is it possible to create custom theme for displaying clustered columns chart on Power View?
Basically I am looking to create chart with specific colors for the bars? For e.g. for High - RED, Medium - Orange and Low - Yellow color. When I look at themes available in Excel 2013 I don't see this combination as such, so I was looking to create one
myself.
I tried to create a theme using video on youtube, but the theme which I created is not showing up in Power View mode in excel 2013.

Hi Sagar,
In Power View, it has several default theme colors for us to apply to our workbook. Also, we can change the Font, Text Size and Background of the chart. However, it is not support to design a custom theme color.
You can refer to the following steps to change the theme colors:
1. On the POWER VIEW tab, in the Themes group, click Themes.
2. Under Built-in, click the theme that you want to use.
Please refer to the following screenshot below:

Power View Created Using Excel Data are not visible in BI Docs

I have created a Excel sheet with data and Then I added a Power View for that data set. I added this Excel Sheet to the Power BI Docs in Office 365 share-point Online. But when I open this uploaded Excel file.
There is only the Datasheet but no pages of Power Views of that data. How can I make this power Views visible in the Excel sheet.
Thanks

Normally, when you open an excel file, using excel online, (not on phone or tablette, just by using your laptop) the report will appear correctly.
I was in your case when i didn't have right access in Power BI in Office 365, so make sure that your account have right access in Power BI in Office 365. (you can talk to the administrator of Office 365 for more information).

MM02 for sales view, but dispaly Basic data?

We have authorized users to be able to run MM02 for sales view data only (M_MATE_STA = V). When they enter a material using MM02, they cannot select the BASIC DATA views, even though they just want to reference them. Is that the intention of the object M_MATE_STA ? If they need to view BASIC DATA, will they also have to start a 2nd session and use MM03?

Inorder to get change access to basic data/client level data the user should have authorization for object M_MATE_MAN
Activity 2.
Please run transaction SU53 where the user is having problem to access basic data after accessing basic view to check the auth.SU53 will give you clear idea of authorization.
Thanks

Create view link between two view objects (from programmatic data source)

Hi Experts,
Can we create a link between two view objects (they are created from programmatic datasource ; not from either entity or sql query). If yes how to create the link; ( i mean the like attributes?)
I would also like to drag and drop that in my page so that i can see as top master form and the below child table. Assume in my program i will be only have one master object and many child objects.
Any hits or idea pls.
-t

Easiest way to do this is to add additional transient attributes to your master view object, and then include those additional transient attributes in the list of source attributes for your view link. This way, you can get BC4J to automatically refer to their values with no additional code on your part.

Use View Object with Alternative Data Sources in View Link

In my case, I created a view object based on alternative data source (not with SQL query). I have setQuery(null) in the override create() function for this View Object. When I use this View Object at the destination end of the View Link, the setQuery(null) will raise Jbo-26016 exception (You cannot set customer query (calling setQuery()) on a view object if it is the detail view object in a master detail view link.) which does not allow me to do that. I looked Avrom's Framework for Database API-Based ADF BC, in which he override the DBTransaction and CallableStatement in order to intercept the default query clause set by the View Link. I'd like to see if there is any alternative ways to achieve my objective?

Just following up what I found so far. I'm trying to use customized View Object based on alternative data source at the destination end of View Link with ADF 10.1.3.
1. For the View Object at the destination end of View Link, I can not call setQuery() which will raise Jbo-26016 exception.
2. I can omit the setQuery(null) call in my customized ViewObjectImpl, and as long as there is no SQL statement in the View Definition XML, it won't cause problem when calling the executeQueryForCollection() of the super class.
3. The override executeQueryForCollection() must call the super.executeQueryForCollection() in order to get appropriate result (I tried to skip the call and it does not give back any results)
4. The funny thing is, when I make getQuery() call in my customized ViewObjectImpl (I'm just trying to double check if the Query object is clean or not), the query object is set to "SELECT FROM" following the getQuery() call, and which causes the exceptions when I call super.exeuteQueryForCollection(). I found out later from the Javadoc API which is implemented in that way.
So I guess my case is resolved by not making specific call to setQuery(null).
