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.

  • Saving work books locally

    Hello all,
    When we save the work book locally as excel, and again we can open this excel
    As when we open this excel it will give only the data which is stored but not the updated data because this excel does not have connection with BW system
    so how can we use work books by saving locally but with latest data when we open?
    regards
    sunil.

    Workbooks should always stored along with Roles or in Favourites.
    If you save WB locally like on your PC desktop you won't get updated data.
    thts bcoz of RFC connection.
    you can only save the WB data Locally as simple XLS/XLSX form.
    But this will be treated as normal Excel file not the Workbook.
    Cheers:)

    Atul,
    Check if you are able to login into Manage Servers through Central Configuration Manager.
    If thats successful, the issue is either with Krb5.ini or bscLogin.conf file.
    You can check http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1631734 and download the white paper to go through the settings.
    Make sure there are no white spaces in Krb5.ini and the format is correct.

    In which client you have got this message ? Qual or Prod
    even saving workbook can be done only in development system -> and later transport to target client

  • Work Book Favorites

    Hello Experts,
    I have a workbook saved as a user favorite that is referencing a query that no longer exists. This workbook is has all the right drill downs.
    Is it possible to keep the workbook template but point the query to the new one without having to recreate the whole template?
    Thanks for your help, Prabhu

    Prabhu,
    If you want to point to query,you have to reinsert the query to the work book so you have to do all your drill downs again and save the workbook.
    But you can save your old workbook as excel file for reference and do your drill downs ...
    Hope it helps ..
