Satish,
If you have the software installed, you also have the help files. eTools -> "Business Planning and Consolidation for Office Help" -> and then search in the index for EVDRE.
The same documentation is available from the software download center, in PDF format. As with the software, this is available for licensees of the BPC software.
The purpose of this forum is to share information on topics that are not readily available in the standard documentation.
Please don't continue asking the forum to email you basic information -- you need to take responsibility to find things yourself, and to demonstrate to the forum that you've exhausted these basic channels of information before asking for help here.

BPC Excel - EvDRE & Named Ranges

Hi
I have an EvDRE showing sales by Customer, I also have a named range referencing the results, the named range is D20:D50, however, when I refresh the EvDRE the named range changes by itself, and starts from the last row of the previous EvDRE results, i.e. it becomes D51:D81.
Does anyone have any tricks for preventing it from doing this ?, I've tried $D$20:$D$50, but it still changes itself, and I've also tried not using a named range at all, and just using $D$20:$D$50 directly in my formula, but that corrupts when I refresh. I cannot unfortunately use D:D as I am Ranking the results.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi all,
I can confirm that I am having the same error with BPC 7.0MS with the latest patches even after inserting the DO_COMPRESS 0 parameter in the dbo.tblDefaults table. I am trying to make an expansion on TIME dimension such as:
2002.TOTAL,BAS(2002.TOTAL),2003.TOTAL,BAS(2003.TOTAL)...
which works with only 2 elements like 2002.TOTAL,BAS(2002.TOTAL), so I rule out the source of the problem being wrong member names in rows or something like that.
Anybody has any suggestion?

Ports in SAP BPC for MS Office (Excel, Word or PowerPoint).

Hello to all,
I'm trying to find what ports do I have to open to my firewall to let the customer in to the SAP BPC from the MS Office (Excel, Word or PowerPoint).
I've tried to find it, but I didn't fiond anything in the manuals.
Please I need help.
Thank you in advance.
Pablo Mortera.

You really need to go through the Master & Installation guide as Alwin pointed out. This guide will easily answer questions like this as well as the other question you have posted lately.
From the guide;
If your Application, Web, or Reporting Services server components will be
accessed through a firewall, you should verify with your network
administrator which TCP ports to choose during the installation of
OutlookSoft. By default, port 80 is the setting for standard http access,
and port 443 is the setting for https access. If you require a service to
listen on a different port, you can specify it during the installation program
in u2018Advanced Settings.u2019 See Standard and Advanced settings on page 18.
u2022 Make sure all required server ports are open, and there is communication
between the physical servers on which you are going to install the server
components.
All required ports must be opened for inbound/outbound traffic. By default,
OutlookSoft requires that Ports 80 (used by http) and 1443 (used by SQL
2000/2005), 2725 (used by OLAP 2000) and 2383 (used by OLAP 2005)
are open. For information on the required ports, see Server Manager Help.

Microsoft Excel slowing down and other problems when SAP BPC EPM Add-in is installed

Hello,
Our client is having some problems with Microsoft Excel (MS Office 2013) since the SAP BPC EPM Add-in was installed in their computers.
They are suffering from Microsoft Excel slowing down, even when not connected to SAP BPC (10.0 NW version).
For example, when opening two or more excel archives, not connected to SAP BPC, Microsoft Excel crashes and is restarted with errors.
Have you experienced something similar in other installations?
Thank you very much, and kind regards,

In relation to the previous post , we have to emphasize that we have installed in ours PC's:
MS Office 2010 14.0.7116.5000 32 bit,
EPM add-on version 10.0 SP20 (10.0.0.8993).
and our customer have installed in theirs PC's:
MS Office 2013 15.0.4675.1001 32-bit.

SAP BPC and Hyperion SmartView

Hello, Forum u2013
Encountering an issue when trying to use SAP BPC and Hyperion SmartView at the same time and just curious if anyone else is 1) using both programs at the same time and 2) if so, have you encountered any problems?
Here is the scenario:
I have a SAP template file (EvDRE) that is used in conjunction with Hyperion SmartView. The way it works is that the template would extract the numbers out of Hyperion and then send the base numbers to the SAP system.
In order to do this, however, I have to create the connection to the Hyperion database first, which I do using VBA code.
When I execute this code within a blank workbook, I am able to successfully create the connection to Hyperion with no problems.
When I execute the same code within my SAP template, I receive a MS Excel error (u201CExcel has encountered an error and must close programu2026u201D). This has been a consistent result that Iu2019ve received.
Please note that I am not logged into either SAP or Hyperion when I receive this error (this happens outside both systems). I'm worried that as soon as I log into both programs, the whole thing will crash...
So, just curious if anyone out there is encountering the same issue when trying to use both programs.
Please let me know.
Carlo

My suggestion is to attempt to break it into 2 seperate work flows for testing, using 2 seperate templates. One to pull, then copy the data to the second sheet for submission. I would assume that you would have to be connected to initiat eeither the extraction of sending of data using your added code, so seperating the 2 steps may prove useful.
Hope this helps.

Reports from SAP BPC NW 7.5

Hi All,
Our Landscape:
SAP ECC EhP1
SAP BW 7.10
SAP BOBJ XI 3.1 (WebI/Crystal/Xcelsius)
SAP BPC NW 7.5
We are new to BPC. We would like to know where do we need to develope the reports on BPC data. Can some one help me on this. If some one have any best practices or options that where we can develope the reports, pls let me know
Like we can do reporting directly on BPC with only couple of reports from BW/BOBJ or all reports from BW/BOBJ.
Here we are planning to use BW as warehouse solution and BOBJ tools for reporitng on BW data.
Thanks,
Bala

Hi Bala,
BPC is a planning & a reporting tool. It can also be used for Consolidation. As mentioned in the previous reply, the data in BW has to be made available in BPC Application (cube) to be able to report it out.
You might need to create transformation files and conversions files between your BW cubes and the BPC cubes to realise the data transfer to BPC application (cube). Note, BPC cubes are automatically generated when you create an application from the BPC front end.
Please refer to some good introductory blogs available on SDN to get to know the BPC terminology and BW terms. Then BPC has an reporting tool in itself. You can create reporting using EVDRE for example which displays the data landed in BPC cubes. This typically will have actual data (loaded from BW), plan data (planned through Input Schedules or flat file data loads).
Hope this give some brief idea.
Thanks

SAP BPC MS 7.5 with Extended Analytic Analyzer and EPM connector

Hi experts,
I need your inputs regarding Extended Analytic Analyzer add ins.
I installed the SAP Business Object Extended Analytic Analyzer hoping to integrate the Xcelsius in SAP BPC MS 7.5
I am following the HTG to integrate but got lost.
In EPM connector steps, I cannot find the option from OPERATION TYPE: Retrieve data using Analyzer Report.
The only options available under operation type are
EPM Report
Retrieve Environments
Retrieve Models
Retrieve Dimensions
Retrieve Dimension Members
Input Data
Retrieve Business Process Flows
Retrieve Context
Retrieve Members Property Values
RetrieveText From Library
It doesn't include the option Retrieve data using Analyzer Report.
Im wondering if there are different version of the epm connector? Was my EPM connector differs from the HTG?
And also in Excel under Extended Analytic Analyzer, the function =GETREPORTDEFINITION() is missing
Please help me on this guys..
Thanks in advance.

It seems a very good oportunity to use FIM.
FIM was designed especially for exchange data betweeen different SAP product.
FIM will provide an easy way to do the conversion using wizards and also will assure you about data inetgrity and quality.
This will be the way forward but more details has to be define during the implementation.
I hope this will help you.

Questions on SAP BPC 10.1

Dear Friends,
I have some basic questions as below, could you please answer?
1) Can we create Excel Reports from Excel interface (EPM Add-in)?
2) Once we create the Unified model, can we see this unified model in BW? as a cube?
3) How to make Unified model in to Auditable status? Currently my unified model is showing RED dot under Auditable status. Will it show GREEN if its Auditable ?
4) I am trying to create Input Template. I have navigated through "LIBRARY"-->"Input Forms" and then I have given input form name and Model name. But the "next" button is disabled because..its shows empty "No Data" for Name: and InforProvide. Its has "Search", "History", "All" options.
What should I do here?
5) Can we write a Script logic / BADI to perform a calculation in Unified model? Do we have Data Manager Packages in 10.1?
6) How give Security access like Task Profiles, Member access profiles?
Thank you so much in Advance.

How to get rid of the SAP BPC "three globes" startup screen?

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to get rid of the SAP BPC "three globes" startup screen when we start BPC. I do not want it to pop up.
I looked at VBA behind the workbooks but could not find anything. Could not make the sheet invisible.
Is there a way to get rid of the screen? This is the screenshot

Re: How to change the logo, (3 Globes) on the launch page
Posted: Mar 18, 2009 12:46 PM in response to: David Fletcher Reply
OK then, now v7sp03 for microsoft has hit the shelves, you can change the logo !!!
It is quite easy.
Have the logo file ready in either BMP, GIF or JPG format.
Put it in your "Server Install -> DataWebFolders[Appset]" folder (so where you keep your files).
In ApplicationSet parameters, add the parameter COMPANY_LOGO and in the options type the name of the file you just put on the server.
Now if you restart BPC for Excel, the second excel page that pops up should be showing your new logo or graphic (mine did).
The use of the logo has been documented in the admin manual -> working with appset parameters
Some tips.
I wanted not to clutter the filesystem so i put my logo in the appsetpublications folder and added the path accordingly in the parameter (so now it reads appsetpublicationslogoname.jpg instead of just logoname.jpg).
If you do not supply a name (only the parameter), your second Excel window (normally holding the graphic) will not appear. That could be an alternative too if you find that whole thing annoying.
Hope this helps you build great BPC apps,

Analyzer Security for SAP BPC 7.5 SP6

Hi ,
We have recently installed Analyzer add-in on our excel for Adhoc reporting on SAP BPC 7.5 SP6
But analyzer is not considering the data security restricted for specific region.
For eg: If a planner is assinged to EUROPE planning role and when he creates reports using analyzer he is able to see the data for all the regions(NA,EMEA,ASIAPAC).
Is there anyway we can restrict the planners to see the data relevant to their role in Analyzer.
we had a look at security in Admin client. Is there anyway to handle this.Thanks much.
Regards,
Sanjeev

Hi,
You can use Bex analyzer for detailed reporting. Both the analyzer and BPC reports can be connected using the normal excel functionalities (in a single excel workbook) so that BPC CV selection will be fed into Bex as variables and relevant data records are displayed in Bex reports. Performance of Bex analyzer is slow. That is one of the main reason it was replaced with BO reporting tools.
If you are using BPC 7.5NW, then there is a standard functionality called DRILL THROUGH. Using this functionality you can drill down to detailed data in BW.
Bex and BPC have different authorizations. You can maintain authorizations in BW roles and try to manually replicate same authorizations in BPC (there is also a how-to doc on automating this synchronization).

Info Of SAP BPC 7.5 NW

Dear Expert,
I'm a newbie on SAP BPC 7.5 NW and had a knowledge of SAP BPC 7M before. I found several articles and information about BPC 7.0 NW and never ever touch in BPC NW system, I would like to make sure and maybe more tips from experts. My questions are:
1. BPC 7M have a dimension in excel format for an user enter members, BPC 7.5NW have same format with BPC 7M ? If not, could I know how an user enter members please ?
2. I read some articles BPC 7NW for load data for reports, the first step we must to do that create BPC cube which is data from BW cube. Is it correct or maybe BPC 7.5NW have new features ?
3. Regarding point no 2, Is it correct that data from SAP ECC must be in BW cube first and then create BPC cube for SAP BPC ?
Thanks in advance for your help and information. I really appreciate your help.
Kind Regards,

Hi,
In the NW version also, the members are maintained in the same way in the MS platform.
You can load transaction data from a flat file or from a BI cube or from a file in the application server.
The NW and the MS platforms are very similar with a very few differences.
Please go through the below link from help.sap for further details.

Hope this helps.

Issue in the Reporting feature of SAP BPC NW 7.0

Hi everyone,
I am facing an issue with respect to the Reporting feature in SAP BPC NW 7.0 version. I am supposed to generate a P&L report using the EVDRE function.
Issue-
In the report that I have generated, the system is retrieving only a subset of the broad-level P&L heads. e.g. while BPC is retrieving the EBITDA, EBIT and PAT figures, it is not retrieving the Depreciation, Interest and Tax figures in the report. All the members that are not getting displayed are members with ACCTYPE= 'EXP', while the ones getting displayed are members with ACCTYPE= 'INC'.
Even though the 'EXP' figures are not getting displayed, the amounts are getting deducted correctly. (i.e. even though Interest amount is not getting displayed in the report, the PBT figure being displayed is correctly calculated as PBT= EBIT-Interest).
Also, I am able to see the amount in Interest payments, if I drill to the base-member elements (G/Ls in my case)
Would really appreciate if someone could shed some light on what might be the probable issue.
Thanks in advance,
Sameer Rane

Hi Nilanjan/All,
Thanks a lot for your reply. I suppose, I was not very clear about my problem. The issue is with regards to the value for the Account-dimension members with ACCTYPE = 'EXP' and not with the members per se.
Setting the MemberSet Filter addresses the issue of getting particular Dimension members in the report. In my case, I am already seeing all the necessary members in my report (I have explicitly created a list of all the members I want to see in my report in the MemberSet parameter). However, I am not able to see any values for these members for any of the time periods (even though the values exist).
Also, I don't get any values for some of the INC items as well (e.g. OperationsIncome) inspite of the fact that the base member G/Ls under this account hold values.
Would appreciate any help towards resolving this issue.
Thanks in advance,
Sameer
