SAP BW Query and Xcelsius

Hi Gurus,
SInce now we can directly connect Xcelsius to SAP BW Netweaver queries, I have a requirement to craete a dashboard in Xcelsius which should get data from several BI Queries.
Is it possible. I know how to connect to one QUery but how can I add different queries in the same XLF.
Can anyone please explain?
Thanks!

Yes you can add multiple queries in your XCelsius dashboard. Make sure that you are using XCelsius SP3 and that your BW 7 system has at least EHP1 and SPS 5 installed. Additionally both the java stack and the abap stack should be activated.
You can find more information in the user's guide:

SAP BW QUERY AND BOBJ , QUERY VARIABLES

I have a SAP BW QUERY which Iu2019m trying to get through to BOBJ 4.0 AND CONTINUE TO GET THIS error "getDocumentInformation exception Error WRE 99998.........database error The MDX QUERY SELECT {...} ON CLOUMNS, NON EMPTY UNORDER, DIMESION PROPERTIES ON ROWS from SAP VARIABLES FAILED TO EXECUTE WITH ERROR for characteristic 0FISCYEAR, enter year in specified format(IES10901)
We using BOBJ 4.0 AND IDT TO CREATE connections to query...
In SAP BEX ANALYZER the query runs and returns results without any issues, but in u201CQUERY AS A WEB SERVICEu201D and u201CWEB SERVICEu201D we get THE above error ....
so i removed the variables from the row section and included it in the filter section of query and still i get errors in bobj (This is after going to Transaction RSRT checking the properties TAB and selecting "Use Selection of Structure Elements" and then generating query in SAP BW,
SOME queries you need to assign variable inputs for certain characteristics to restrict specific data ACCORDINGLY...
is there a way to come around this?
are there some docs available that simply describes the method of using a variable input/prompt in a SAP BW QUERY and how to use it in BOBJ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in Advance

personal experience the variables doesnt work properly from query to bobj, remove any calculations in yoru query and variables, you could only use filters in query.. when you bring them in webi then brring the values to the report then create vraibles in it there.
i keep my query from filtering as well then do everything in webi or xcelsius ..

I need to know the user who has created/modified a SAP Bex Query and WAD

Hi!
I need to know the user who has created and modified a SAP Bex Query and SAP Web Application Designer. Does it possible to know this information by a table or view?
Best Regards
Ramon Sanchez

Hi,
In BEx query, when you click "Queries" to open the query, the list of queries are displayed. Highlight the query, click on the "Properties On/Off' icon(right most on the top), you would see all the details.
In WAD, before opening the template, click on "Properties On/Off'" icon to see the details.

Problem with a SAP BW Query and Webi

Hi all,
Does anybody knows the reason why when using webi to access a SAP BW query that prompts the user for
a date, it gives an error on the format? It seems the lov is not being populated correctly. If I write
manually the value the prompt expects, it works, but if you select one of the values of the list it doesn't.
The version is XIR2 and if you create a simple query everything seems to work fine.
Any idea?
I don't know if there is something to do with language parameters or something like that.
Thank you

Hi Mike,
thanks for your answer.
I will try to send you a screenshot, but I cannot do it at the moment because I am not at the customer site.
I'll try to explain what we get when we running the webi report.
The lov to select from retrievs data like "K41002008" that is supposed to be a date, but if you select this value the report fails. Instead of
selecting the value, if I manually write for instance "01/01/2008", the report works fine.
I don't know if this is useful.
Once I have more info to send, I'll do it right away.
Thanks again for your time
Regards

Hi Experts,
I have following set up -

SAP GUI 710.
I have two systems - 1. Internal IDES and 2. Client system
I open a Xcelsius and try to create a connection "SAP BW NetWeaver connection" in Xcelsius, I am prompted for login details.
1. When I give internal IDES system credentials, it logs me in and the queries are displayed and I can select any query without any error.
2. When I give client system credentials, it logs me in, and shows me the BW queries. Once I select any query, it gives me "Error # 2032"
RSPOR_T_PORTAL in SM30 is set properly as expected and explained in http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333333393330333733303333%7D.do
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue?
Timely help would highly be appreciated!

Hey there.
We've solved the problem on our test systems.
But we have got a special constellation. Our BW Portal is running on an other machine than the ABAP Stack.
Meaning, maybe it's not for all of you the solution.
But it was very simple in the end.
We've patched our System (ABAP and Java Stack) to SP6 (its now 7.01 SP6).
The reason was a missing rfc service that should have come with the SP5 patch. But it wasn't.
If the service is present could be tested with opening the following link:
http://<portalserver>/crossdomain.xml
Result shouldn't be the 404 page.
Please tell us if that was the solution for you, too.
Greetings

Crystal Report and SAP BW Query

I have developed the Crsytal Report (ontop of SAP BW Query), and save this report into my local c:\ drive.
Now I made some changes to the BW Query (this is the Datasource of my Crystal Report) to include new Key Figure and Characteristic via BEx Query Designer.
Now when I open my existing Crystal Report, I dont get see the new key Figure/Characteristics that I just included to the BEx Query. Why? Is this bug? How can we update the Crystal Report automatically when the underline BEx Query has changed?

Hi,
We have similar case when the underline BEx query has been changed.
In our case, the Variable value is not appear in CR.
Example, a Variable has been created and assigned to the Cost Centre.
In BEx Query, I can see the value of the Cost Centre and can therefore select the value from the Variable field.
In CR, I have the Cost Centre prompt as parameters, but there is no value for me to select.
Database Verify has been performed.
Anyone come across this?

Hi Ingo,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I will sort it out and ensure the release version will be the same as Inter Kits.
By the way, i saw your post regarding the Integration Kits installation and configuration. However, i still need some clarification; appreciated you could assist me on this.
I have installed SAP BOXI3.1 SP3 on an LINUX machine (Redhat Enterprise 5) and the server was running fine without connecting to BW or SAP eCIBS.
Now, i have to establish the connectivity to BW (InfoCuve and BW Query) and SAP eCIBS system. As my customer requirement was required to using WEBI, CR and Xcelsius for connecting to BW for getting the data and then using scheduler in BOE for performing report distribution. Some of the report will connecting to SAP eCIBS directly and that will using our Client's machine for creating the report (using CR2008) and then publish to the BOE platform for report scheduling and distribution.
My question, i wish to install SAP Inter Kits and downloaded Inter. Kits for SAP Solution 3.1 SP3 from service market place. When i refer to the document from help.sap.com; there are couple of section but i wish to know which are the perquisite section that i wish to install and configure?
Eg: System Requirement which are installing SAP RFC SDK and SAP JCO SDK into my BOE server, then following my create a logon token. How to to that? It also require to install SAP Java Connector and SAP GUI, does these two available for LINUX OS as well?
The steps in doc was confuse, appreciated your kind help.
THanks.

Prompt List of Values in WebI - SAP BI Variable - SAP BI Query -BI Infoset

Hi,
We have a Multiprovider built on an Infoset. SAP BI Infoset is built using 2 DSOs.
There is a SAP BI Query on top of this Multiprovider.
Multiple-Single Values type Optional Variables are created for some of the Objects of this SAP BI Query.
Universe is created on top of this SAP BI Query, using SAP Integration kit.
WebI is created on top of this Universe.
Prompts are created on some of the Universe Objects, for the WebI report.
We are facing a typical problem.
When a WebI prompt is created on one particular object, (which also has a Multiple Single Value type Optional Variable in SAP BI Query), its List of Values is showing up only first three values in WebI. The SAP BI Variable in BEX Analyzer shows up all the 8 values for the List of Values, for the same object.
The Output WebI report has more values for the object than shown up in the List of Values & this is the problem.
We tried to keep the settings in Info-object, DSO, Infoset, Multiprovider = Values in Master Data (for the List of Values).
Similar objects and similar variables for the same query / webi show all the List of Values.
Any guidance on aspects to be checked would be helpful.
regards,
Rajesh K Sarin

Problem :
If an SAP BI Infoset is used in data modelling, and a restricted key
figure is created in the SAP BI Query; the resultant WebI Object Prompt
for the Info-object, only shows up LOVs which have been used for the
restricted Key Figure. Both the things are not related except for the
fact that some of the values for the same object are used for the
restricted key figure.
Details :
We have a Multiprovider built on an SAP BI Infoset.
SAP BI Infoset is built using 2 DSOs.
There is a SAP BI Query on top of this Multiprovider.
There is a restricted key figure in the sap bi query. KeyFigure "Number
of Records" is restricted for 3 of the relevant Info-object "Meter
Reading Status" values.
Universe is created on top of this SAP BI Query, using SAP Integration
kit. WebI is created on top of this Universe.
Prompt is created on the Universe Object for Meter Reading Status, in
the WebI report.
List of Values is showing up only the three values in WebI (which were
used in the Restricted Key Figure calculation).
SAP BI Variable in BEX Analyzer for the same Info-object Meter Reading
Status shows up all the 8 values for the List of Values.
The Output WebI report has more values for the object than shown up in
the List of Values & this is the problem.
We have kept the settings in Info-object, DSO, Infoset,
Multiprovider, Query = Values in Master Data (for the List of Values).
When we delete the "Restricted Key Figure" from the SAP BI Query, the
refreshed Universe and Webi have a complete set of List of Values
applicable.
Steps for Reconstruction
1. Create Infoset
2. Create SAP BI Query on Infoset
3. Create Restricted Key Figure for Number of Records and few of the
values for a characteristic info-object "X".
4. Create BO Universe on SAP BI Query
5. Create Webi on BO Universe
6. Create a Prompt on the characteristic info-object "X".
7. Check List of Values for the characteristic info-object "X" in SAP
BI Query and WebI.
8. LOVs in WebI are equal to the values used for restriction in the
restricted key figure.
9. Delete the restricted key figure from SAP BI Query.
10. Refresh Universe
11. Webi prompt shows all the values for the prompt on "X".

How to remove Decimals in Quantity Objects in SAP BO Explorer View created on top SAP Bex Query?

Hi,
I created SAP BO Explorer report on top of SAP BEx Query.
In SAP BEx Query, Decimals were hided but when i created OLAP Universe on top that SAP BEx Query and Created Index on top of Information Space in SAP BO Explorer and then created Exploration Views. But i'm getting Decimals in my Exploration Views where as SAP BEx Query in RSRT, no decimals were appearing.
Can anyone suggest me how to remove decimals in SAP BO Exploration Views.

Hi Ramana,
I am not use how you connect to SAP BEx query (Via universe or BWA or HANA)
What I could say is BWA and HANA, you cannot adjust this
For universe, you could try in universe layer, there is note about this
For BWA and HANA, this function might be enhanced but you 'd better raise OSS to SAP to check with them
Best regards

Connection xcelsius sap bw query

Hello,
I am trying to create a connection between xcelsius and a sap bw query. I created a new connection and defined a place for the result of the query but I don't get any data in xcelsius - how do i get data into xcelsius?
thanks

Hi Margit,
In Direct SAP BW Netweaver connectivity , You do not see the data in the spread sheet of Xcelcius.
Data comes only at runtime.
You can check wheteher data is coming are not by Mapping a label or any other component and check if it is showing the value correctly when u publish it.
You cannot preview data using SAP BW Netweaver connectivity.
You will have to publish it and then Launch it.
Note :Check the "Refresh befor Components are loaded" in the Usage Tab.
Please let me know if you need any further help in this.

SAP BEx query's Conditions and Exceptions on BO Universe

We are planning to create Conditions and Exception on SAP BEx Query. And provide this query to BO team for their development
Could anyone tell me in what form will these BEx objects be visible in BO-Universe ....as detail objects...or query filters and a.s.o?
Will they be Invisible? If invisible will they be atleast applied to BO-Universe.
For e,g: I know that, BEx Query filter will be applied to the underlying query but are not visible in OLAP universe.
- Anil

Hi,
Conditions and Excpetions are not supported by OLAP BAPI tehrefore they are not generated in universes or consumed at query level.
You have to create conditions on measures in universes (except top end bottom exceptions that are not supported).
Exceptions need to be done at cliient level (Webi, XCelsius, etc).
I BOE CI 4.0 conditions will be supporte by the Semantic Layer direct acces with BICS but exceptions will continue to be created at client level.

Re: Crystal Report and SAP BW Query with Variable

Crystal Report 2008 V1 SP3 and SAP Integration Kits 3.1 SP3 installed on my client machine.
I can open SAP BW Query in Crystal Report. However, in the Field Explorer >Database Fields, I dont see to be able to expan the Query and see it Key Figure/Characteristic.
I noticed this happen only if we have Variable defined in the Charactics.
If the characteristic has no variable, then I can expand the Query under Database Fields.
Do you have this problem?

Yes, once I have imported the new SAP Integration Kits XI 3.1 SP3 transports into BW system, I can now expand the it.
I can now see the Variable in Crystal Report.
Thanks!

Autorization issue with SAP Query and RPTQTA10

Dear all,
I am having some difficulties with autorisations in SAP Query and Report RPTQTA10.
in IT2006 I have a subtype 03 which should not be accessible for a group of users.
Also I have created a test employee with a sybtype of IT2006 which is allowd and one which is not allowed.
When I run some reports with that user I get a nice result with PT50. Only the allowed subtypes are being displayed.
When I try to run A SAP Query or report PRTQTA10, the employee is not visible and seems to end op in an error list.
Can someone shed some light on this issue?
Kind regards,
Patrick

Hallo,
Follow like this...
Role 1:-
authorization level: R, W (You should not give W, R. You should give either W or M, R, Any way it will not create any problem)
Infotype: 2006 -Ok
Pers area: * -Ok
Emp group: * -Ok
Emp sub group: * -Ok
profile: ALL*, ZBHR_OS etc etc -Ok
Subtype: 01, 02 - Keep only sub type 01, 02
fuction group: * -Ok
Role 2:-
authorization level: R, W (You should not give W, R. You should give either W or M, R, Any way it will not create any problem)
Infotype: 2006 -Ok
Pers area: * -Ok
Emp group: * -Ok
Emp sub group: * -Ok
profile: ALL*, ZBHR_OS etc etc -Ok
Subtype: 03 - Keep only sub type 03
fuction group: * -Ok
Then user who want only sub type 01 & 02 then assign role 1 and he will not have access to sub type 03
User who want only sub type 03 access, then assign role 2 only so that he will not have access to sub type 01 & 01
User who want sub type 01, 02 & 03 access, gibe Role 1 & Role 2
Hope it clarifies.

Purnima
