Report dont show decimal number in BPC for Excel

Hi expert,
I want to show in a report drag and drop with two rows (account + User definer Dimension) and one column (time), numbers with decimal extension. I input values with that format and when i look the database, this values appears with same extention altough, when i open a report, values showing like integer (i mean if the number was 2.86 show 3) and try to change the format of excel to show decimal, but the values still integer. In the dimension account, i put this format "#.##0,00" on the FORMAT dimension property but its still show integer.
Im shure its not a excel problem, any idea?
thanks in advance

Hi,
The detected problem in that case is that the rounding value conversion routine is not working property. Reason might be with your SQL Server Installation. If you have installed SQL Server in Spanish then changes are there for this problem and it is due to regional numbering format symbols for decimals(In English we use '.' for decimal where as in Spanish '<' will be used)
If the problem is due to this reason you need to Install SQL Server in English. Hope this helps you.

There is no version of Excel for iPads. iPads come with something that lets you view the contents of Excel files but it implements only the common easy features and there are (literally) hundreds of things you can do in Excel that it doesn't know how to show on the screen, including some functions.
If you intend to work with spreadsheets on an iPad I suggest you buy Numbers for iPad
http://www.apple.com/apps/iwork/numbers/
which understands more (but still not 100%) of the things that Excel does. It is so cheap that you can probably afford to buy a copy just to see whether it does what you want.
If you are doing things with spreadsheets and intend to be primarily working on iPads then I suggest you actually use Numbers on a Mac as well, rather than using Excel at all.

BPC for excel Add-in Conflict

Hi,
I'm trying to find out if there any known excel add-ins that conflict with BPC for Excel (v7) and how the conflicts manifest themselves.
I am currently specifically interested in conflicts with SAP BW BEx Analyser but would be interested in any others also.
Would be grateful if anyone could shed some light on this.
Many thanks

Usually, Crashing means excel will show crashing error message and restart it.
Excel will just return excel error message. NOT BPC or 3rd Party ADD_IN error message because it happened at the EXCEL while it is processing request from BPC addin and other 3rd partty Addin. (Of course BEX is SAP product. that's why BPC NW support BEX report in 7.5 but still it is not fully integrated with MS.)
Sometimes it happens when retriving data from BPC or sending data. As you know those are critical functionality of BPC.
Again, it depends on the addin but based on my experience, Hyperion Addin and BEX addin had a problem when it runs together with BPC addin. some simple addin might not have any issue but still recommendation is not using 3rd party addin because we don't know where the error comes.
Thank you.

Launching a BPC for Excel template from a webdynpro link

Hello,
Does anyone know how to directly launch a BPC for Excel template using the FileService asmx call through a webdynpro link? We are currently using BPC 7.5 NW SP5.
Regards,
Nik

Could you try a couple of things....
1) Copy/Paste the worksheet into a new workbook. There may be inherent issues with a version 4.0 created EVDRE/EVGET template than a version 5.0 one
2) Check you dont have any Park N'Go issues (set to Live) or there are no Worksheet Dimension Lock options enabled.
3) I assume the old V4.0 client software was fully uninstalled before installing the new client?
4) Try delete 1950 of the formulae's and check whether the remaining 50 refresh ok or not (although I think you've said part of the report refreshes ok?)
5) Make sure you don't have any broken name ranges for example
6) You dont mention what version & service pack excel you are running, but if its Excel 2003, try apply service pack SP3.
7) Do a find and replace on EVGET and replace it with something nonsense like TESTABC, then find replace TESTABC back to EVGET. See if this initialises the EVGET or not. (shot in the dark this one).
8) Clear out your client information (eTools > Client options) and reconnect afresh with connection wizard.
9) FINALLY: Develop the new report from scratch. May not be ideal, but weigh up whether this is worth it from a time/cost benefit perspective

BPC for Excel Input Schedules

Hi
With Input Schedules in BPC for Excel, is there an easy way to see which cells get uploaded ?, for example, if I open a report written by another person, how can I easily see which cells get upload when MNU_ESUBMIT_REFRESH runs ?.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind Regards
Gavin

HI,
There is no specific way (something like a menu command). You can define a specific colors or format for the cells(or some formulas which change the format of the cell), but this is related to the input schedule design.

How to display PropertyuFF1Au300CPARENTHu300D on BPC for Excel

Hi.
Can the dimension property：PARENTH
Is it possible to show the dimension property：PARENTH on BPC for Excel ?
I try to use 「EvPRO」.but it didn't work.
Are there special function for property：PARENTH ?
Takuo

You could try an excel formula in the extra column, but I believe that after processing the formula is removed (never tried this myself).
And a method might be to arrange things directly in SQL using triggers or custom ssis packages. But to be honest, is this really worth it, how many changes do you make in a parenth structure. A simple manual for the administrator here might be enough.
My advice is always, KISS (keep it simple and stupid)

Dear experts,
I don't want to display dialog after send data on BPC for Excel, how can I do that?
OS: MS XP SP2
OFFICE : 2003

Hi,
You need to change the macro assigned to the standard button. There are few macros available. You can try them and see which one suits you the best.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_BOOK_CLEARANDREFRESH: Sends workbook and clears data and refreshes workbook.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_BOOK_NOACTION: Sends data without clearing or refreshing the worksheet.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_BOOK_NOACTION_SHOWRESULT: Sends data without clearing or refreshing the worksheet, and shows the result in a window upon successful send.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_BOOK_NODIALOG_SHOWRESULT: Sends active book without any dialog and show result box.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_BOOK_REFRESH: Sends workbook and refreshes data.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_SHEET_CLEARANDREFRESH: Sends data and clears and refreshes the worksheet.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_SHEET_NOACTION: Sends data without clearing or refreshing.
MNU_eSUBMIT_REFSCHEDULE_SHEET_REFRESH
Hope it helps.

BPC for Excel selection screens trouble

Hi, all!
In our BPC network there are some client machines which have strange trouble in BPC for Excel. When we try login to Excel, Run DM package and select members from CV and run others menu where exists selection screen we see black rectangle where should be text. (Examples:durin login to Excel - at Selection of Connection options (Use default port or Use secured port); during Run DM package - Selection of when to run package(Run now, Schedule or Run now & Schedule); at screen of Member selector of dimension - Data view (Hierachy or Table)). Client machine - Win XP SP3, Excel 2003 SP3. We try reinstall BPC for Excel, Excel, try different client BPC for Excel - 5.1 and 7.0 and it didn't help
Thanks, for help.
Best regards,
Iaroslav

Hello,
A similar problem was reported a while ago in an older version of the product. Our development team after analyzing the issue notified the probelm was caused by the color scheme selected on the client
machine because our dialog boxes use that color scheme.
Please set your color scheme to default and see if that fixes the problem.

BPC for Excel Option Missing from Launch Page

We have a user that does not have the BPC for Excel option on the Launch Page when logging in. I've removed BPC and reinstalled several times sucessfully, but "BPC For Excel" doesn't show up. The launch page doesn't recognize the software has already been installed. Has anyone experienced this?
Thx.
Shane Johnson

Shane- Review all of your IE settings and change all the Security settings to PROMPT instead of No. There is an activeX control that may be being blocked due to a security setting or firewall or popup blocker setting. Make sure Windows Firewall is DISABLED. Make sure Windows Popup Blocker is disabled.
What do you get when you do the "Client Diagnostic" option under the "Client Software Center" link of the BPC launch page? Did you check to see if Microsoft .Net 1.1 is installed? Does the PC have a 64 bit processor? Does the PC have Windows 7 installed? Does the PC have Internet Explorer 8 installed? BPC is not compatible with 64bit client hardware, not compatible with Windows 7 and not compatible with IE 8...

Issue whith action pane when using BPC for excel in Spanish - BPC 7.5 NW

Hi experts,
We just migrated from BPC NW 7.0 to BPC NW 7.5 and we are having a situation with our BPC for excel client now that if we open it with an english instalation everything is ok but if one client with a spanish instalation opens BPC for Excel, the action pane is empty. On 7.0 version everythng worked ok on spanish. Any idea of how to solve it?
Thanks in advance.

Please note that the best practice is to use one language. However, if a number of languages must be used the following solutions may be applied:
If you want end-users to see the very same descriptions in various languages, you may copy the descriptions from one language over to another in BPC Admin Client.
If you want them to see native descriptions in the language the end-user is logged on under, you may log on to BPC Admin Client in the language(spanish) the descriptions are missing for and enter them. Do not forget to process the dimension. Refresh dimension members on client side and process all the dimensions. Now, English descriptions are seen under English and Spanish under Spanish anit is the way it works because SAP has description against EN language only and not spanish
See the notes 1552856 and 1613170 which would be helpful. Thanks.

How to lookup application set status in BPC for Excel

Hello,
we have created some packages diabling the appset status when running.
These packages update dimension data and/or fact data.
Other users will receive an error when sending data to the application when the
packages are running.
Ist there a change to lookup the appset status in BPC for excel?
May be continuously with a macro or just before sending data?
I didn't find a bpc function for this task.
Help appreciated. Thanks
Jochen Kowalski

Hi Jochen,
I don't believe there is any way to do this with built-in BPC functionality.
Assuming you're on BPC for Microsoft, in the appset's DB, you can query as follows:
select [value]
from tblDefaults
where [type] = 'system' and keyid = 'availableflag'
-- value of 1 = available
-- value of 0 = not available
I know this works for system availability when it's controlled on / off, manually from the admin consol. I believe it also works when the system is taken offline by a data manager package, but you'd need to check if you plan to implement this.

BPC for excel

We using BPC 5.1 SP1 and SQL Server 2000, excel 2003
We got one user gettinge the following error message "Object Variable or With block varable not set" and "Information missmatch between App info and Analysis server. Use the login screen to try to reconnecting to the Web server" when trying to log
in to BPC for Excel.
BPC for Word is working fine.
We have tried to reinstall BPC and Excel but the problem remains.

Do you receive the messages when you log into a specific application? Or with all applications?
The latter message seems to indicate that Analysis Services and the database are out of sync. Process each of the the applications through the Admin Console.
G'luck,
Garvi

Problem Launching BPC for Excel in Terminal Services/Citrix Environment

Hello.
We are having an issue launching BPC in our terminal services/citrix environment. This is not the main way that users will be accessing BPC, but we plan to have it available for off-hours/off-site use.
Here are details on our environment.
1) BPC version: 5.0.502 (5.1, SP3, patch 4)
2) Env: 1 web/app server, 1 database server
3) SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, SP2
4) Problem occurs sporadically for any user.
In some instances, launching BPC for Excel does not bring up the connection wizard, instead, an error message displays saying "Object Variable is not set". We then logoff, delete the terminal services profile, and logon again, forcing the creation of a new terminal services profile, and BPC for Excel will launch the connection wizard as expected. So it seems that the terminal services profile sometimes gets corrupted. Does someone know which Windows registry key would cause this situation so we can determine the root problem? Deleting the profile is not a practical permanent solution. This is only an issue in terminal services/citrix, no other environment.
I opened this with support, but they said it's my problem. I'd appreciate any ideas to solve this. Thanks, Nancy

Hello,
I have exactly the same problem too (Citrix / BPC 7.0M SP6 Client).
Do you have a solution regarding this issue ?
Thanks in advance.
