Problem of Bex Analyser connection

Hi, experts,
I have a question regarding as the Bex Analyser connection.
When I tried to connect one of the systems with Bex Analyser, I failed and got the message as below:
"Connect from SAP gateway to RFC server failed".
However, I could log into the system its self by Sap Logon. What's more, the connections to other systems with Bex Analyser are good.
Can someone give me some methods to analyse the problem and some indications?
Thanks!

Hi,
Please note that, If we need to Logon into any SAP System. We need to give the system properties in the Logon Pad.
Like, Description, Application Server, System ID, System Number, SAP System.
1. While giving this properties, if you give in Application Server text box as the Hostname, System ID, System Number. Then in the saplogon.ini file will take this hostname and writes in this file. For example like this :- Item26=XXXYYYZZ370.
If you give like this the logon will be successful.
But when you give the details in the System properties as the IP Address in the Application Server. The in the saplogon.ini file will take this and writes in this file. For example as :- Item24=129.39.69.197.
2. When you are giving the IP Address in the Application Server, then you need to maintain this IP Address along with the Hostname in the hosts file. which is stored in this path :- C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc.
This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should # be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one space.
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
Then only your logon will be Successful. And if you won't mention in this hosts file then the logon will fail.
Hope this difference makes sense. Please let me know if you are fine with this difference.
Thanks and Regards,
KaKa`

IP - Various problems with BEX Analyser - help would be nice

Hi,
we use IP in combination with BEX analyser. We experience certain problems. Does anyone experienced the same issues mentioned below:
1) if a planning function is executed, it is executed twice when your cursor is within the query itself. If it is outside the query when clicking on the button, it is executed once (like it should).
2) Locking: we don't have locking problems, but from the moment two people lock each other once, they need to close their analyser and re-open it (so logon again) in order to be able to start planning again in a non-locked part. If they just change their selection (to the not-lock part) they remain locked!!!
3) planning function with multiple variables: system cannot retrieve values of all variables.
details of function:
CMD                                               1       EXECUTE_PLANNING_FUNCTION
PLANNING FUNCTION NAME           1      AG10_COPY01
DATA PROVIDER_FILTER                 1     DATA_PROVIDER_1
VAR_NAME                                     1       PROF_CTR
VAR_VALUE                                    1       510
VAR_NAME                                     2     PERIOD
VAR_VALUE                                    2        012
VAR_NAME                                     3       CUSTOMER
VAR_VALUE                                    3     1000
-> following the instruction of the SAP course, in case of multiplle variables they should start from 0 and have an incremental increase. But the system only recognizes the variable with index = 1
regards
D

Dear Dries,
could it be that the variable type you use require a different set of commands?
In general the parameters of the BEx Analyzer follow the rules of the SAp BW 3.5 Webruntime. When reading this detailed documentation you find that depending on the type of variable other names have to be used, e.g. when using a selection option variable you need something line varname_low, varname_high, ...
The documentation can be found in the online-help:

Button in Bex Analyser 7.0 - problem with setting up Static Parameters

Hello,
I know a similar problem has been discussed here already, but I am still having problems with setting up Static Parameters of my Button in BEx Analyser 7.0, so that I can pass Variable values from that button to my query.
This is what I do - in Static Parameters of my Button I set the following values:
Name                          Index          Value
DATA_PROVIDER        0               DP_1
CMD                             0               PROCESS_VARIABLES
SUBCMD                      0               VAR_SUBMIT
VAR_NAME                 0               0RMA_FIP
VAR_VALUE               0               004/2010
As a result, I would like the value 004/2010 to be passed to variable 0RMA_FIP (which is mandatory) and the query to be executed with that value. For some reason, however, the value is not passed correctly, and instead the variable is filled with a blank or not filled at all, and I am getting a message "Specifiy value for variable Fiscal year/period". What do I do wrong?
Just to give you a broader picture - I would like to later use this logic to pass more than one variables into a query, including a hierarchy node, and read the values from an Excel worksheet - however, after many attempts to do so, I started playing with just one variable to figure out what the problem was.
I have already seen the following two threads and SAP notes on passing variable values from the button:
Re: Button in BEx Analyzer 7.0
Re: How to set variables values via VBA.

Can anyone please advise?
Cheers,

I managed to figure it out myself!
Instead of VAR_VALUE I need to enter VAR_VALUE_EXT, and it works fine.

What is difference between bex analyser and bex browser

what is difference between bex analyser and bex browser . please explain what are use of both and what we do in both.

hi
Bex Browser
The Business Explorer Browser (BEx Browser) makes it possible for you to access all document types of the Business Information Warehouse that are assigned to your role or that you have stored in your favorites. You can select and open documents assigned to you in the BEx Browser or store and manage new documents in the BEx Browser.
Document types that you can work with in the BEx Browser are:
· BW workbooks
· Documents that are stored in the Business Document Service (BDS)
· Links (references to file system, shortcuts)
· Links to internet sites (URLs)
· SAP transaction calls.
· Web applications and Web templates
· Crystal Reports
Bex Analyser
The Business Explorer Analyzer (BEx Analyzer) is the analysis and reporting tool of the Business Explorer that is embedded in Microsoft Excel.
Features
You can call up the BEx Query Designer in the BEx Analyzer, in order to define queries. Subsequently, you can analyze the selected InfoProvider data by navigation to the query created in the Query Designer and create different query views of the data. You can add the different query views for a query or for different queries to a work book and save them there. You can save the workbook in your favorites or in your role on the BW Server. You can also save the workbook locally on your computer.
Beyond that, you can precalculate the workbook and distribute it by e-mail to recipeients or you can export it to the Enterprise Portal and make it accessible to other employees in the company.
You can start queries in a standard view (with a Standard Web Template set up in Customizing) in the Web browser and forward the URL or continue to navigate on the Web. Similarly, you can export the Web query to MS Excel 2000.
Overview of the Functional Area of the BEx Analyzer:
·        BEx toolbar
You access the functions of the BEx Analyzer from the BEx toolbar, which takes you to the BEx Open dialog box where you can open existing queries, or to the BEx Query Designer where you can create new queries or change existing queries.
·        Evaluating Query Data
The BEx Analyzer offers convenient functions for evaluating and presenting InfoProvider data interactively. In the BEx Analyzer, you can add queries to workbooks, navigate within them and refresh the data. You can also process the queries further in Microsoft Excel or display them in the Web browser in a default view.
Navigation of a query allows you, for example, to filter characteristics on a single value, drilldown on all values for a characteristic, regroup characteristics and key figures in the rows and columns of the results area, or hide key figures. Navigation results in different views of the InfoProvider data. In addition, a range of further functions is available which allow you to edit a query interactively (for example, sorting, cumulated output, among others). In addition, you can use the editing functions in Microsoft Excel in order to set up individual format templates, to print results areas, or to create graphics.
·        Queries in Workbooks
Queries are inserted into workbooks so you can display them. When you insert a query, a link is made between the cell areas of the worksheet and the data of the InfoProvider upon which the query is based. A link therefore exists between the Business Explorer and the Business Information Warehouse Server (BW Server).
When inserting a query into the workbook, a VBA routine is automatically generated in the workbook. You can also connect the Business Explorer with your own VBA programs (Visual Basic for Applications).
You can create workbook templates, into which you can insert your queries. Workbook templates can contain pre-determined items for the area of the query, formatting settings, logos, VBA macros, and so on.
·        Precalculating workbooks
You can precalculate and distribute workbooks with the BEx Broadcaster, which is a Web application you get to form the BEx toolbar. The system generates MS Excel workbooks with historical data. You determine the time for precalculation yourself: You can have workbooks precalculated at a predefined time or they can be precalculated whenever data in the underlying InfoProvider changes. You can have the precalculated workbooks sent by e-mail or you can export them into the Enterprise Portal, where you can make them available to employees within your company.
Activities
To start the BEx Analyzer, choose Start ® Programs ® SAP Front-end Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Business Explorer Analyzer.
You can also access the BEx Analyzer via SAP Easy Access ® SAP Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Menu ® Business Explorer ® Analyzer or in the Business Explorer Browser using the Business Explorer Analyzer symbol in the menu bar.
Hope this will solve your issu

The length of the password entry field in the BEx Analyser

Hi,
The password is 8 characters in the BW system.
When users changing their newly assigned passwords. When logging into the BEx Analyser, and prompted to change the password, a password entry box is displayed, with an entry field longer then 8 characters. Some users are therefore entering passwords longer then 8 characters. This is fine when they first login, but when they try come back to the system, their logon fails.
Can something be done to restrict the length of the password entry field in the BEx Analyser?
Many Thanks
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan
we are having the same problem - did you find a way to resolve this? I did not find any SAP notes referring to the issue.

BI-IP - Bex Analyser - Adding colums / rows in workbooks

Hi experts,
In BI-IP (BW 7) in Bex Analyser we are facing the following problem:
In the workbook if the user inserts a column nearby the input ready columns and inputs values at the time of transfer / save values, the system automatically copies these values to the next input column. The same if they insert rows and add values, at the time of transfer values the system deletes the row but adds the values in the above row.
Is it how Bex Analyser (workbook) works or we are having a problem?
Thanks and regards,
MA

Hi Maria,
Please do not take it offesive.
The issue you guys are encountering is due to lack of Training to Users.
Planning is an intelligent activity. Planners are expected to do their home work before they embark on planning and layouts help capturing values in an orderly manner.
It would be wonderful if you restrict the access to queries, else train the users on the impact and relevance.
As you are aware adding a row is possible in WAD.

How to convert Bex Analyser report into normal MS Excel sheet

When I tried save as and send a copy, It is showing the filter,table, information buttons and appearing same as bex report. I would like to see normal excel sheet when it opens.
Is there any way except copy & paste.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi Chandu,
I followed same procedure as you said. I created one node for SMTP in SAP connect:Administration(SCOT).
I gave destination as RFC destination -> BWDCLNT -> Internet -> enter mail address...etc as per system requirements.
Once I executed, It is showing "No message sent". Did I miss any steps to follow...
Can you give me step by step procedure to follow.
In our Bex tools, Only Broadcaster was disabled. If I configure mail server, may be it enable?
Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Aparna.

Customer names with cyrylic characters are wrongly shown in Bex Analyser

Customer names with Cyrillic characters are wrongly shown in Bex Analyser. The master data is correctly maintained and extracted\loaded by BW for these customer (Master Data object is correct). This might be a Bex Designer issue.
Furthermore, it has nothing to do with the local settings, when copying the name of the customer to Bey Analyzer the name is correctly shown.

Hi,
We are facing the same problem with the turkish characters, Our system is BW 3.10 (3.30 Cont) and ECC 6.0. The turkish characters are displaying correctly at the table level, but not at the RSRT or the Bex level.
The turkish characters are displaying correctly at the table, RSRT and Bex level if we load the same record from the Non-unicode Prod system to the Non-unicode BW Dev system, but if we load from the unicode QA system the same record is not displaying correctly.
Has anybody got a solution for this issue

Replacing # with blank space in Bex Analyser

Hi All,
Can any one help me out in replacing # values in Bex analyser with blank space.
I tried with the macro:
Sub SAPBEXonRefresh(queryID As String, resultArea As Range)
' First Query in the workbook
If queryID = "SAPBEXq0001" Then
' Selects the area where the report query is rendered
resultArea.Select
'Replace "" with 0
Selection.Cells.Replace What:="", Replacement:="0", LookAt:=xlWhole, _ SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, MatchByte:=True
End If
End Sub
Means I have include the macro to the Excel, but still it is not working.
If this macro is the correct solution, then may be I am not using it properly(in the sense I'm not calling with proper syntax).
Please provide me with the solutiuon to get rid of this problem.

Hi,
We are using BEX 7.0.
I got a macro code which is working. The code is as follows.
Dim resultArea As Range
Set resultArea = varname(1)
Dim c As Range
For Each c In resultArea.Cells
If c.Value = "#" Then c.Value = " "
Next c
This works fine but the problem is that this macro code should be added each and every time when the query is run.
Can any one suggest me where the code can be added in Bex Analyzer itself, so that when the query is run the above macro runs along with it and removes the #.
Thanks and Regards,
Geetha.
