Re : work book assignment

Hi,
i am new to the sap bw ,
ihave one doubt regarding work book,
in real time where we can assign the work book and what is the use of favorite folder option ?.
plz give me the answer ,

Hi Prakash,
Favorite folder is specific to User and users can maintain shortcut of the report , which they execute frequently.
Assignment of workbook to role can be done in following way.
Choose workbook open -> Locate the workbook in the list -> Select workbook and on the top of the dialog there is option of insert into role. Role is used for user authorization , can be created using transaction code PFCG.

How to save the work book globally

Hi Janardhana,
We can save workbooks to roles so that all users who are assigned to that role can see and use them. Another way to save workbooks is in the user's favourites folder. I think by Global, you are referring to the first option...

Hi,
Go to the workbook in development system. Find out the technical name of the workbook ( in query designer you wil find in properties).
Copy it and go to the production system. Assign it to the required role you want. It will be visible in the perticular role in production.
I would still suggest if possible transport the role from dev to prod. (to keep all systems in line with each other)
Hope this helps.

Grant access to open work book

Hi
i have created new business area and work book. Also created new database user i.e test. I want to give access user test to new work book to access it from discvoer user edition.
I have assigned business area from discover admin. but still when connecting with user test from discover admin,workbook is not displaying.
Please help me to find out reason.
Thanks in advance

Hi
Do you by chance have more than one EUL? Its possible that you are logging in or connecting to the wrong one. If you're using Discoverer Plus make sure you enter the right one when you are connecting.
If you are working with Discoverer Desktop you need to log in, then use Tools | Options and on the EUL tab make sure the default EUL is the same one you used to create the workbook.
Next, let's check the user privileges. Here's the database privileges you should have as a minimum:
grant connect, resource to &&username;
grant execute any procedure to &&username;
grant global query rewrite to &&username;
grant select any table to &&username;
You probably want to get your DBA to make sure the user who cannot see the workbook has the same database privileges as the one who created it.
In the Discoverer Admin edition you need to use Tools | Privileges and make sure the user has the Desktop/Plus main privilege plus you should check as many of the sub-privileges as you can. You might find that the user cannot be granted the schedule workbooks privilege and this is ok - you can ignore that one.
Next thing, are you by chance using E-Business Suite? Its possible that the user is not logging in with an adequate responsibility.
Do as much of the above as you can and get back with me.
Best wishes

Saving Work books

Dear Gurus,
I have a specific requirement like i need to stop users saving the work book in a folder. The Problem is we have 5 rpeorts in folder and users from Different countries accessing the reports and saving the report according to their company code and when others trying to use its displaying no authorizations , how to stop that.
Regards
Arunkumar

Hi Anun,
In order to save a workbook, a user needs two authorization objects. The
two objects listed below are the minimum authorizations, a user needs to
save workbooks.
-> S_GUI: Authorization for GUI activities
-> S_BDS_DS: Authorizations for document set
Both these authorizations will enable a user to save workbooks to their
'Favourites' folder. If a user wants to save a workbook to a location
where it can be easily accessed by others, they need to save to a 'Role'
rather than saving the workbook in their own Favorites folder. You can
then assign the Role to all parties who need to share workbooks. In
order to save workbooks to Roles, a user needs following authorizations.
-> S_USER_AGR: Authorizations: Role check
-> S_USER_TCD: Transactions in roles
I guess your users have the auts to save their personal settings in the role... ie: country code..., to control this take a look at the authorization object S_user_AGR... if they have activity 02 (change) for this then they will be able to save to the role. Would it suit your purposes to have them have display only access to this workbook in the role (activity 03 for S_USER_AGR)
I hope this helps
best regards
Orla.

Work book is not displayed

Hi Gurus,
I have one work book for a query which I find by using where used list option in the query tool bar. However I am unable to go to it .I put the query technical name in the find to get to that work book but I get the message 'work book is not found.
why it shows like this?
any one can give an input in this regard?
Regards
Durai

Hi Durai,
No it is not at all necessary to assign a workbook to a role , in order to display it .
But unlike in the case of query , you do not have hierarchy view where you can see workbook defined on info provider.
So in order to keep a list of work book available to authorized users it is assigned to a role.
