Queries Workbook

Hi,
I am performing some changes in standard queries only introducing Auth. Variable and variable for restriction to Business Unit infoobject (BW3.5)
Is there any potential risk with the existing queries saved in the workbook?
Cheers,
F

Thanks for the answer.
But changing standard queries (only introducing auth. variables or restriction) can have an impact - i mean link issues to standard queries? need to be refreshed? - on the related workbooks created by users against these queries.

Hyperion reports to BI queries/workbooks

HI,
Can you anyone please give me some idea how to convert old Hyperion reports to BI queries/workbooks.
What are the steps involved in conversion?
Regards,
Ashok

Hi Ashok,
BW data could be reported from Hyperion by connecting the system with the right adapter,
the other way around isn't possible (querying hyperion data via BW) except by setting the hyperion DB as a DB/UD Connect source system and having remote IProviders on-top of it.
If you need then you can synchronize BW metadata in Hyperion then,
create a report in Hyperion which will retrieve data from a BW query released for OLE/DB for OLAP (query properties/extended).
now you can access any BW query / cube / multiprovider in BW system
Hope it helps.....

Publishing queries/workbooks to roles

I'd like to know what the best practice is for organising the above. Our problem is that we develop a number of workbooks local to production. If we publish these to the roles carrying authorisations then they will be overwritten the next time we make a change to the authorisation values and reimport the roles. Is it necessary to have some roles which are used to hold authorisations and others to act as objects to publish queries/workbooks to?

Yes,
And I believe that's the best practice.
Create a role just to publish the queries/workbooks only (just for the Menu).
Create another role for the authorization objects.
Both roles should be assigned to the user but manage independently.

Can BEX queries / workbooks directly called from the EP

Hi,
We are trying to call queries / workbooks directly from the portal using SAP connector / RFC's.
Thanks.

Here is my code in a file I used as a sample. I put the bee in a symbol named world and it works correctly:
EC.SVG.accessSVG(sym.getSymbol('world').$('bees')).done(
          function(svgDocument){
                    // add event listener
                    svgDocument.addEventListener("select", function(event) {
                    // Remember selected part
                    sym.setVariable("selectedPart", event.target);
                    // show the id of the selected part in the textfield
                    sym.$("selectedPartTxt").html( event.target.id );
Let me know if this helps. I can post the sample if you want.

Listing Queries/Workbooks in Roles

Hi! Is there a way to list queries/workbooks by role?
Thanks in advance!
Marnie

Hi,
When you log on to the BEx by workbook or query and when you press the role button, you should be able to see all the workbooks and queries by role.
You can also check the listing in PFCG. Give the role name and all the workbooks and queries attached to that role can be found in the menu area.
Cheers,

Usage of a specific infoobject in Queris/Workbooks

Hi everybody.
I'm going to add some nav. attribute to 0vendor infobject, and than
I need to update many queries in which 0vendor exists by replacing the
0vendor by the new nav. attribute.
I need to now in which workbooks/queries that are in use (in the last 30 days)
I have to make the changes.
Please help !!!
Thanks
M.B.

I'm affraid you'll have to dig into some tables... here are a few that might be usefull
RSRREPDIR (you can find all queries linked to a Cube or get at least the guid of a query)
RSZELTXREF (with the guid you found before, you can retrieve ALL the query elements)
RSZELTDIR (gives more details about the elements... )
it'll depend whether you want to look on variables on the InfoObject or just the use of the InfoObject in rows/columns how far you have to dig... obviously you can dig the other way

Review and clean up old queries/workbooks

Hi Gurus,
Is there a easy/automated way that we can run statistics of workbooks every 3 months and identify workbooks that are not being used. I tried using the standard statistics workbooks and one of the RS* tables- but did not get much luck. So, trying to see if you knew of any other way to do it.
Points assured.

Queries.Workbook Naming Standards

Hello,
If we any restrictions on how you are allowed to name queries and workbooks in Bex. Like they should start with xxxx_xxx etc. Where can I find these settings in BW/Bex?
My manager asked me to find out details. I'd appreciate if some one can help me ASAP.
Thanks
BIConsultant

Usually, custom query names should start with "Z", followed by the name of InfoProvider and then name of query. Example, cube is ZXYZ. your query could be names something like:
ZXYZ_Q_1_INCOMESTATEMENT
Of course, clients can have their preferences too.
Any Business Content object's name would start with "0"
You can begin a name with any letter, but generally Z is used.
I for queries, you can up to 30 characters.
For workbooks, technical names are generated automatically, you just give the descriptions.
Hope it helps,
Farhan

BI-IP Bex Analyser - Input Queries / Workbooks

Hi experts,
In BI-IP (BW 7) with Bex Analyser, we want to make an input query with the standard chars. WBS Element and Asset Class. In our business 1 WBS can be planned to several asset classes, but 1 asset class only has 1 WBS. The link between both is made by a common attribute value (the account determination).
Ex:
WBS A - Account determination 123
Asset Class A - Account determination 123
Asset Class B - Account determination 123
We want the input query to show automatically:
WBS A - Asset Class A
- Asset Class B
Any suggestions?
Thanks and Regards,
MA

I want to find and categorize all workbooks/queries by Info Area

Can you please help.

Assigning Queries and workbooks to user roles

Hi Guys,
I was hoping that someone could explain, how the queries, workbooks and Web Templates can be assigned to roles.
What are the steps involved in creating the roles and assigning the queries.
How are these reports accessed by the users (by URLs or through SAP GUI) If I would want to use the URLs to access them, how do I open the workbooks?
I seem to have a lot of questions, hope to find answers to a few of them.
Thanks,
Doniv

Hi Doniv,
Queries, workbooks and web templates can be assigned to roles during the time that they are being saved. The assignment can also take place in PFCG > role. These kind of roles are usually basic placeholders that are assigned to different users as per requirements. This ensures that the usersa can see only those objects which are on the roles assigned to them.
The workbooks are not accessed by a URL in the internet explorer, they are accessed in the BEx Analyser.
Hope this helps...

Transport request for BW queries and roles.

Hi All,
we need to craete 20 bw queries on 4 multiproviders. We need to save 18 queries as workbooks in one role and the other 2 queries in other role. Both the roles and queries does not exist and will be created in Developement environment.
We just want to know how we can transport them in the quality environment. What is the right method to transport them.
Can we transport all the object queries, workbooks and roles in number of transport requests so that if few queries or workbooks needs any changes then we do not have to transport all objects just the request which includes the changed objects.
Thanks & Kind Regards,
Hardeep

Thanks a lot for all of you for your quick response. But i still have questions.
If we create one transport for roles and one transport for each query then we will be having 21 transport requests. But the transport request on same multiprovider can lock the clacuated key figures and restricted key figures, if they are present in more than one query, it means they will be present in more than one transport requests, so they can be locked and trasport request will be failed.
If i just create one transport request for all the objects roles, quaries & workbooks it will not loack any object, and transport request will not fail. But i have to transport all the objects again if i need to change one of the queries.
Please let me know if there is a method that i can divide my queries as per multiprovider and can create transport requests as per multiprovider so that we can not lock calculated keyfigures and restricted key figures. Is workbooks can be published in the role in the same transport request. If it is and if in more than one transport request we are publishing the different workbooks to the same role, will it lock the role.
