Remove Power Query queries while keeping the query output tables

I use power query to load data from external sources into several excel tables. Before sending this excel to a client, I would like to remove all power query queries (M code) while keeping the output/query tables at place.
My current workaround is:
unload Power Query
convert each table to range
load Power Query
delete queries (M code)
Is there a better/faster way to achieve what I want?

You can unlink the existing tables and remove custom XML data in Document Inspector. No need to duplicate the worksheet.
exactly. and even unlinking the tables is not neccessary for DocInspector to remove the custom XML of PQ.
Do you have any suggestion on how to trigger the cleaning of PQ XML code via VBA?
the following code does not work:
ActiveWorkbook.RemoveDocumentInformation (xlRDIAll)

Error while running the query on web.

Hello Friends
I am getting the error message "Result set too large (1056716 cells); data retrieval restricted by configuration (maximum = 500000 cells)" while executing the query on the web in BI 2004s. How can this be resolved.
Any help in this regards is appreciated and points will be assigned.
Thanks.

Hi Rishi,
Maybe your queries returned too large volume of data.
So, if possible,
1, create some filter on your query to reduce the transferred data
2, chaange your query structure (reduce the items on the column or low)
and your error message seemed to be generated from BEx Analyzer...
does web report have "cells"?
if BEx Analyzer, the limit of cells volume is inneviable.
and if you use BEx Web, do you know note1008619?
this note describe about the limit of data volume on web applications.
Hope it help,
Kanako

While running the query how much time it will taken, I want to see the time

Hi Folks
I would like to know ... While running the query how much time it will be taken, I want to see the time? in WEBI XI R2.....
Plz let me know the answer.......

Hi Ravi,
The time a report runs is estimated based on the last time it was run. So you need to run the report once before you can see how long it will take. Also it depends on several factors... the database server could cache some queries so running it a second time immediately after the first time could be quicker. And there is the chance of changing filters to bring back different sets of data.
You could also schedule a report and then check the scheduled instance's status properties and view how long a report actually ran.
Good luck

RC 8 error while transporting the query from Dev to Qa - Element missing

Hi All,
I have made a multiprovider by copying one existing one.
I have copies one of the Bex queries using RSZC from the source to Target MP.
While transporting the query from Dev to QA i have got the following error. (I have already moved the Multi Prov in a previous TR)
Has anyone seen similar types before. Any inputs will be highly appreciated.

Kind regards,

Hi Jith,
First of all try to consolidate all your objects in a single TR and then move to Q from D.
In this case check for the list of objects that you have in your TRs. If TR 3 have all the Objects that were in TR1, TR2, then transporting TR3 alone will work.
Also, you can find the information related to the elements that were missed in your TR1,TR2 by following process.
1. Go to your transport Logs and then to the entries marked as Error.
2. There you will find the Query Element Ids, copy them
3. Now, go to Table(Se16) RSZELTDIR, there enter those query elements.
Now, you can able to find the elements that you have missed in your TRs. Hope this helps you.

Precautions to be taken while changing the Query read mode in PED system

Dear Experts,
I got a task to change the Query Read mode for more No. of queries in Production system directly itself.
Request you to let me what are the steps to be followed/precautions to be taken while changing the Query Read mode in PED.
one more doubt regarding this.....If i plan to change the Read mode of Query say Q1, how can i come to know weather the Q1 is executing or not executing by that time.
Thanks in advance for valuable response.
Thanks & Regards,
Ramesh - Kumar

Hello,
You can change the query read mode in transaction 'RSRT', here are the steps:
1) Access transaction RSRT and enter the query name
2) Select the 'Properties' option
3) Un-check the 'Info provider' setting next to the 'Read mode' --> This enables you to change the read mode of the query --> Execute
4) Choose the option 'Generate Report' to re-generate the query program
Hope this info helps.
Thanks

Issue While executing the Query for Pagination using ROWNUM with like

Issue While executing the Query for Pagination using ROWNUM with like.
Database is Oracle11G.
Oracle Database Table contains 8-9 lakh records
1) SQL equal (=)
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE A.REFERENCE = 'KMF22600920'
Execution Time:- 0.00869245 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
2) SQL like (one %)
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE A.REFERENCE = 'KMF22600920%'
Execution Time:- 0.01094301 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
3) SQL like (two%)
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE A.REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%'
Execution Time:- 6.43989658 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
In Pagination, we are using Modified version of SQL Query 3) with ROWNUM as mentioned below :-
4) SELECT * FROM (
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%' AND ROWNUM <= 20 ) WHERE RNUM > 0
Execution Time:- Infinite
ResultSets:- No as execution time is infinite
a) Instead of like if we use = in the above query it is returning the 2 resultsets (execution time 0.02699282 seconds)
b) Instead of two % in the above query, if use one example REFERENCE like 'KMF22600920%' it is returning the 2 resultsets (execution time 0.03313019 seconds)
Issue:- When using two % in like in the above query i.e. REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%' AND ROWNUM <= 20 ) , it is going to infinite.
Could you please let us know what is the issue with two % used in like and rownum
5) Modified version of Option1 query (move out the RNUM condition AND RNUM <= 20)
SELECT * FROM (
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS(n) */ ROWNUM RNUM, A.* FROM LINE A
WHERE REFERENCE like '%KMF22600920%' ) WHERE RNUM > 0 AND RNUM <= 20
Execution Time:- 7.41368914 seconds
Returns 2 resultsets
Is the above query is best optimized query which should be used for the Pagination or still can improve on this ?

This would be easier to diagnose if there was an explain plan posted for the 'good' and 'bad' queries. Generally speaking using '%' on both sides precludes the use of any indexes.

Database Error while running the query.

Hi,
While running the query in webi rich client i am having a "database error IES 10901 and WIS 10901" , it is showing that the data source name not found and default driver is not specified.
I am trying to generate report from efashion universe which is in .unx format, same client version and universe is running fine on another machine (webi rich client).
PS: The above mentioned universe is running fine on my BI launch pad, the problem is with webi rich client only.
Please help!!

Hi,
Which Database your are using .
As explained by Yuvraj You need to install driver for specific database .
Ask for client or (your Database ) driver from administrator .
After installation you can see your database Driver in following path
Control Panel\System and Security\Administrative Tools\Data Sources (ODBC)
See in Drivers Tab .
If you are using oracle & client is install on your system then Check TNS Names File in NETWORK folder .

No Data Shown because an error occurred while running the query

Discoverer 10gR2 using Plus on Firefox:
I have one workbook. The first sheet summarizes by Vendor. Parameters are Type, Category, Vendor (all optional) and mandatory date range.
The second sheet summarized by Vendor and Model. Parameters are Type, Category, Vendor, Model (all optional) and mandatory date range.
All parameters except the extra "Model" are shared between the sheets.
When I run the Vendor sheet, parameters pop up, I put in dates and leave the rest blank. Results display. Yeah!
When I then run the Model sheet, parameters pop up again (because it has one more parameter). Dates carry forward, leave the rest blank. I get the error No Data Shown because an error occurred while running the query. Refreshing does not help.
If I click back to the Vendor sheet, then come back to the Model sheet, no parameter screen and the query runs.
Booooo.
Have tried multiple DBs, multiple EULs, multiple underlying data sources, replacing the offending parameter with a whole new one, no difference.
Has any body run into this behavior? Is there an answer?
-- Ron Olcott, Business Intelligence Product Manager

What about trying this. On the parameter definition, you have a section on the bottom left of the Parameters window, called "Do you want to allow different parameter values for each worksheet?". When you say in your posting that all but the Model parameter is shared, I assume you mean that you have set this section value to "Allow only one set of paratmeter values for all worksheets". Try setting this to "Allow different parameter values for each worksheet". See if that might make a difference for you. If that works, you may have to leave the option at this, as the lesser of your evils. From my limited experience, the "Allow only one set of parameter mvalues for all worksheets" is a bit flaky in how it works. So I pretty much have gone to always saying to allow different parameter values for each worksheet. Hope this helps a bit. If worse comes to worse, if you have not done so already, log a service request with support and see what they say. Good luck.

Error at report designer while opening the query

Hi
in report designer i am trying to open query
i am getting error like
error while loading query meta data
check the query and portal settings
i am getting this error only this report only
Diagnosis
An error occurred in the BI components on the SAP J2EE Engine.
System Response
Procedure
Contact your system administrator to have the error analyzed in detail.
Procedure for System Administration
Start the Visual Administrator, log on to the SAP J2EE Engine and choose "<J2EE_SID>" ->"Server" -> "Services" -> "Log Viewer".
The file "defaultTrace.trc" includes detailed information about the error that occurred. In Windows, you can find this file in the Log Viewer under "Cluster <computer name>" -> "Server <server number>" -> "<drive>:\usr\sap\<SID>\JC<INSTANCE>\j2ee\cluster\server<NUMBER>\log". ". In Unix, the file is located under "/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<INSTANCE>/j2ee/cluster/server<NUMBER>/log".
If the file does not include enough detail about the error, you can increase the log level to obtain more information. To do this, choose "<J2EE_SID>" -> "Server" -> "Services" -> "Log Configurator". On the "Locations" tab page, choose "com" -> "sap" -> "ip" -> "bi" -> "webapplications". Using the selection list on the right side of the screen, you can increase the log level, whereby "DEBUG" represents the log level with the most information. You can save your settings by choosing the "Save" icon. The change to the log level is active immediately. Once you have successfully analyzed the error, you should set the log level back to its default value using the appropriate pushbutton; continuous writing to the log file negatively affects the overall performance of the system.

Hi Suneel,
If you are using any JAVA based applications or objects in the Report designer this error is thrown.
It's better to install Java engine to correct this error.
You must contact Basis people in order to solve this issue.

Serious system error while executing the query: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

From ALSB, we are trying to insert records in a table, by calling the ALDSP webservice. It is working fine when the xml (ie., given as input to the ALDSP webservice) is small. But facing the following error when the input xml size is large.
<ALDSP> <BEA-000000> <Product> <Serious system error while executing the query:
{ld:ABC/Test}createTest:1
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
We do not want to increase the heap size. Is there any other way we can solve this problem?

In logical dataservice of ALDSP we have created a procedure called createTest, which is used to insert mulitple rows in the table. We have created a webservice for that logical DataService.
Using the ALSB, we are calling the webservice -> createTest Operation and we are passing xml as input to that createTest function.
Input xml:
<ns1:createTest>
<ns1:createTemps>
<ns0:createTemp>
     <ns0:field1>1</ns0:field1>
          <ns0:field10>test1</ns0:field10>
</ns0:createTemp>
<ns0:createTemp>
     <ns0:field1>2</ns0:field1>
          <ns0:field10>test2</ns0:field10>
</ns0:createTemp>
     </ns1:createTemps>
</ns1:createTest>
each ns0:createTemp represent a row that need to be inserted in the table.
When the number of ns0:createTemp is less ( when the number of rows that need to be inserted is less) then no problem occurs, it is getting inserted properly. But when there are more number of ns0:createTemp then we are getting the following error
<ALDSP> <BEA-000000> <Product> <Serious system error while executing the query:
{ld:ABC/Test}createTest:1
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

Getting Brain Error while saving the query--Need Immediate solution

Hello Experte
I designed query like this.
G/L account structure is defined in Rows. Before explaining about columns Let me Explain u about my ORG structure.
Company codes are defined in R/3 like this.
Company Code
1000 for Local Currency(HSL01)
2000 to 7000,IEL for group Currency(KSL01).
Iu2019m extracting the data as it is from R/3 to DSO and again by writing routine I splitter the data for months(EX: HSL01 is ApriL,Hsl02 May,u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026.KSL01 April, KSL02 may,u2026u2026u2026. Upto to 16 periods) this is R/3 data. This data I differentiated based upon currency types. If currency type is 10 then Local Currency 30 Means Group Currency.
Again Iu2019m receiving the data from Flat Files for subsidiaries(IEAI,IEG,IEEL,ISSCI,IHAL,TTM-US,TTM-INDIA,TTIT). This data I loaded first into DSO by writing Routine at field Level for G/L account to convert G/L Descriptions into Numbers.
After that I loaded data from first DSO to Second DSO by writing to convert respective currencies into INR and again loaded to cube by Direct mapping.
Again Iu2019m receiving the eliminations data from R/3 through Ztable. This also Iu2019m extracting from R/3 and loaded into dso and again into cube.
Now I will Explain about my Report.
In Columns I defined 3 selections for each month. U can observe that in Document. Like that for each month Iu2019m getting three selections and for subsidiaries 2 selections for each month. If we observe total Iu2019m getting 13 selections for India and 9 selections for each subsidiary. If subsidiaries increase I need to increase selections, automatically columns will increase. Now for Q4 2 new subsidiaries are added I need to added. After adding and while saving the query then only Iu2019m getting brain error.
Could any one sort out this.
Thanks,
Sony

While executing the query the output is completey different from the query

Dear friends,
We built a query and loaded the data for that infoprovider.
While executing the query the output is completey different from the query what we have built.
Output has no relevance to the query.
Kindly help the same.
Regards,
Sathya

HI Satya,
In my opinion the issue is with your front end.
Results should be identical in RSRT, BEx Analyzer (Workbooks) and the ABAP-Web since all three frontend tools use the "ABAP Runtime layer".
It may differ In the Portal where the new "Java Runtime layer". (Java-Web.) is used.
This is given in OSS Note 1296576 - Different Query Behaviour: ABAP - Java.
So i think the problem lies in your analyser. If you are using Analyzer: BI Add on 7.X (Based on 7.10) try and get support package 8.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Rahul
