Scope of analysis

Hi all,
How do I set the "scope of analysis" in WEBI, when I see in my report the icon is in disable mode. Can anyone let me know how to activate and the purspose of the function?
Regards,
Preetham

Hi Preetham,
Scope of analysis button grayed out:
Uncheck the option u201CUse Query Drillu201D (Document Properties) i.e. 3rd option under Document Options. (Right click on the report)
Scope of analysis is used to set the level of drill you want on the report. If you set the hierarchy up to level 5 then you can restrict the drill on this hierarchy to 2 or 3 levels.
I Hope this Helpsu2026.
Thanksu2026

New document, query drill, scope of analysis, buttons disabled

Hi,
i have many reports, as part of develepment, we are planning to use drill down in some reports, but,when i edit the report in infoview, it is possible to create new document but not in rich client, and it is not posible no edit query in rich client, the button is greyed out, also the drill button, and even the create new document is grayed out.
I read another post that says, is not posible to use scope of analysis if the universe is from BI,so i tought it could be the reason that scope of analysis was greyed out, but did another test with universe e-fashion and it´s exactly the same problem, the buttons -create new query edit query, drill, scope of analysis, are disabled.
I have all the rights in infoview and cmc i have tha administrator account, Could be the problem ..........that we have a temporary license?
Thanks for your help hope to solve it quickly

Hi,
Copy the report from Public folders to your favourites and tryfor drill down or creating a new document. May be your admin team can restrict in QA or PROD generally.

WEBI 4.1 Scope of Analysis panel is Disabled with OLAP Univers Connection

Hello All,
I am facing an Issue with Web intelligence 4.1 that the Scope of analysis panel is disabled although I have created a hierarchy in my OLAP universe connection but also it is disabled, so please there is any way to enable the scope of analysis panel and use hierarchy from OLAP universe connection this will solve my issues with drill down webi reports.
BOBJ version is 4.1 and BW version is NetWeaver 7.4
Please advice

HI Tarek Badr.
Unfortunately the Scope of Analysis Feature is not available for OLAP.It would be grayed out.
The hierachies should be defined in the source system if you want the tree drill down like a parent child hierearchy..but if you just need drillling you can defined custom hierachies in the universe and use drilling in the report but u wont define the scope of analysis in any case..

Merge Dimension & Scope of Analysis buttons inactive

Hi experts,
We are currently on Business Objects XI 3.0. I am trying to merge common dimensions from 2 Universes, or to perform Drill-down on hierarchies. However, I don't know why the buttons <Merge Dimensions> and <Show/Hide Scope of Analysis Pane> are inactive, ie. grey in colour.
Is there something I need to set before I can use these 2 functions?
I've already ticked 'Auto-merge dimensions' (under Document Properties), but this flag is always unticked when I create a new document.
I've also set 'Start drill on existing report' (under Tools > Options).
Would appreciate any suggestion on getting these 2 functions working. Thanks in advance.

Hi Linda,
Have you tried Unchecking the option u201CUse Query Drillu201D (Document Properties) i.e. 3rd option under Document Options in WEBI?
I am not comfortable with SAP BW OLAP Universes because I never worked on it.
If you canu2019t combine the queries or u201CAdd a combined Queryu201D button is disabled then follow the steps:
1. Import the universe on which you are building the report.
2. Goto Universe Parameters-> SQL tab-> Check the option u201Callow the use of Union, Intersect and minus operatorsu201D
3. Save and Export the Universe
4. You can combine the Queries now.
I Hope this Helpsu2026..
Thanksu2026

BI 4.0 Interactive Ana;lysis BICS Connection to BEx Query Scope of Analysis

Is there any setting on BEx query that needs to be set for Scope of Analysis to be enabled for hierarchy drilling in Query panel?

You are not able to use scope of analysis in an BI Universe.....if you want to use hierarchie you can define them in the universe manually...and it willl work for drilling options...

Scope of Analysis & Aggregation

Hi All,
I am new to Business Objects Egde and I am struggling to do something quite simple. I have the following tables:
Table 1
Sales rep      | Target
A          |$100
Table 2
State     | Sales Rep     | Clinic          |Revenue
NSW     |A          |X          |$5
NSW     |A          |Y          |$8
In Web Intelligence, I want a report to return the target at the state level first and then using the drill-down functionality at the sales rep and clinic level. When using the state/sales rep scope of analysis I get the right result, but as soon as I add the clinic to the scope the result is wrong.
Results
Scope of analysis = State/Sales Rep
State     |Target     |Revenue
NSW     |$100          |$13
Scope of analysis = State/Sales Rep/Clinic
State     |Target     |Revenue
NSW     |$200          |$13
How should I define the target (in the universe or in WebI) so that I can get the right results (ie, $100) and the clinic in the scope of analysis?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Emilie

Hi
BO Edge works as follows:
since you are displaying the data of two queries in one table it builds the product of the two tables:
State | Sales Rep | Clinic |Revenue| Target
NSW |A |X |$5 | $100
NSW |A |Y |$8 | $100
If you assign only the State and the Sales Rep dimensions in your table then WebI aggregates the Target and Revenue key figures. I assume that you have assigned your key figures in the universe the sum operator.
Table 3
State | Sales Rep | Revenue| Target
NSW |A |X |($5 + $8) | ($100 + $100)
Keep in mind that first the aggregated table is build internally (Table 3) and then the drill is done.

SCOPE OF ANALYSIS button Inactive

Hi,
I am trying to use SCOPE OF ANALYSIS in my webi report but the Scope of analysis button is graded out.
I have tried unchecking the "USE QUERY DRILL" under document properties as it was said in one of the threads, But no luck.
Could any one please hellp me through this, How to make SCOPE OF ANALYSIS BUTTON active??
Thank You!

If what Oscar suggests does not work, it may be a permissions issue.
You need to be granted permission to drill at the WebIntelligence Application settings via the CMC

Scope of analysis and use query drill?

Hai Everyone,
I have a hierarchy in my universe
country>region>client town -->client area
Now at reporting level if I keep country>client town>client area in scope of analysis its working fine but when I would like to have the drill in this way i.e region>client town>client area ,here even I don't want drill up from region to country,Its allowing to drill up.
I have tried even by disabling "Use Query Drill " option .
What is the reason behinde it to drill up by creating a new query?
Thanks in advance,
Pujitha

Hi pujitha,
when you define a hierarchy and run a report ,that data is brought into cube. So because of this it's allowing you to drill up
from region to country.
One thing you can do is try query drill. It will actually fire a query on database when you want to drill further (up or down).
Hope it's a helpful post.

Scope of Anlaysis

Hi,
Scope of Analysis will restrict the usage of objects in the report. Whereas for eg: I have set the scope of analysis for Year as Quarter and Month. When i activate the Drill option, im able to drill down to week which shouldnt be the case.
Also Query drill option is unchecked.
Can anyone suggest me how to restrict upto month please.
Thanks in Advance

Morning,
You could create a new hierarchy in the universe: Year > Quarter > Month.
After you have done this follow these steps:
- Logon to the CMC
- Go to access levels
- Click on "included rights" > "Add/Remove Rights"
- Go to the "Application" section > "Web Intelligence"
- Deny access to the following: "Extend scope of analysis"
I think this should do the job for you.
Let us know how you got on

Web intelligence and sap bw hierarchy

Hi all,
we are trying to build a report based on bex query and using bw hierarchy.
We can create the report in an easy way with dimnesion customer (using hierarchy) and measure unit sales and it look pretty good. But when we add next dimension into our report the result isnt how we imagined. Take a look please at these two pictures. The first is how the report looks like now and the second is how it should look like.
1. picture how it looks like now - http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/6708/sapbwhierarchyinwebi.jpg
2. picture how it should look like - http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/7043/sapbwhierarchyinwebithi.jpg
The dimension sales manager should be visible only on the bottom level of the customer hierarchy. Is it possible ?
Thanks for any help,
regards Martin Zluky

Edited by: Martin Zluky on Oct 26, 2011 5:04 PM

Hi Martin,
you can try saving dimension in the hierachy in the universe designer and then saving and exporting it and in webi you can check in scope of analysis/Drill whether it is drilled down or not to that level.
hope this will help.

Drill function implemented on Measure object column in the webi report

Post Author: madan kumar
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
Hi,
I have a small issue in my project.(Maintenance Project)I created a measure object in the fact table of the existing universe and saved and exported to the repository. (Say Measure object is D where D = A-(B+C))I inserted the same object as a column between two measure objects columns of a existing WebI report.
The report has two hierarchies involved - each hierarchy has dimension objects involved.I have checked with the hierarchies to make sure that measure object is not involved.The scope of analysis is None for the query.Version is BO XI R2.
The issue is the Drill function is implemented on that particular new column.The drill function should be applicable only to the two dimension objects involved in the report.But this measure object column is also getting drilled once the Drill option is selected.I had to remove the drill optiion from the Measure object column.
Can anyone help me on this issue...
Thanks in advance...

Sushil
Thanks for your reply. I did the date diff on the columns. It does not break into 3 different groups. I am using a function called previous on the date column. So the report is like this
    DATE                           Pervious (DATE)                 Date - Pervious(DATE)
01-01-2008 01:06              Null
01-01-2008 01:12              01-01-2008 01:06               :06
01-01-2008 01:18              01-01-2008 01:12               :06
01-01-2008 01:24              01-01-2008 01:18               :06
01-01-2008 01:30             01-01-2008 01:24              :06
01-01-2008 01:36             01-01-2008 01:30               :06
Basically we are breaking on the Date - Previous ( Date) column which does not work. I am not sure if there is a way to break this. I even tried it in Crystal REports XI and it does not work their either. Any help with this issue with be greatly appriciated.

Error querying OLAP universe based on BEx query

Hi all,
I have a problem extracting larger (more than 80 000 rows) amounts of data through querying an OLAP universe with WebI.
The error is:
Query 1 - NAME_OF_THE_QUERY
A database error occurred. The database error text is: Error in MDDataSetBW.GetCellData. &INCLUDE INCL_INSTALLATION_ERROR. (WIS 10901)
The error occurs when I define larger scope of analysis in the query (four levels). With more modest scope (three levels or less) it's working OK. I need larger data set (more than 200 000 rows) to be populated at night through scheduling the report. We can't afford shrink the scope of analysis because it will hit the BW server during the day when it's needed by other users.
Besides this the speed of the report refresh is very slow - more than 3 minutes per just 400 rows of data. I'm still unable to identify the source of the problem with this slowdown. Executing the same query over the web through the SAP BW BEx Viewer is much much faster - just 3 seconds. Maybe the reason for this is that the BEx viewer aggregates data on the higher level of the hierarchy rather than down to transaction level (like we do by expanding the scope of analysis).
Anyway, if anyone have ideas about the error above I'll be very grateful if you share your thoughts. Thanks!
Our environment:
BO EDGE BI 3.1, standard
SAP BW 3.0
SAP Integration Kit (all transports installed)
BW user with full access

Ingo,
Could you point me to an official SAP document regarding the 1 million cells limitation, which describes the exact version and patch level for SAP BW which removes this limitation? It will be very helpful for me because I have to convince the client to migrate BW from 3.0 to 7.01 if it will solve this limitation.
Thank you in advance!
Ivan
BTW I have installed SP2 + FP2.1 and now the SAP integration is not functional, but I have opened another thread for this problem.
