Security In Bex Query

Hi,
I need a help on applying security in Bex Query, my scenario is i have a single InfoCube which contains all data, and we have a query based on this cube. Requirement is that this query should display the rows based on the logged in User's Service Organization. How can we achive this.
Also, there is a requirement where in the Query Designer would be directly exposed to certain users where they will select the InfoCube and create Queries, this security should be applied to them as well.
Thanks

Hi Akila
Does your query contains the field service organization? If yes then you can create analysis authorization objects in TCODE RSECADMIN to restrict your query to the user's service organization and then assign analysis authorization object to the user's role.
To give access to the creation of query, you can use the standard authorization RS_COMP* objects to the user's role with the activity as change so that the user could be able to create and display the reports in Bex.
Let me know if you need further inputs.

Error while creating webi on BEx query

Hello,
I will appreciate your help on this matter.
I created a BICS connection and published it in the repository successfully. I then logged on to BI launch pad and tried to create webi report on top of BEx query but getting a following error.
I am not sure what that error is all about , may be something to do with Java. I would appreciate if you advise your help on this.
Regards.

i need to create one webi report fron Bex query based on sab BW.
But when I execute the query its shows "Unspecified error invoking method or accessing property "on change DocID"".
i didnt get this msg.
please help

Hi Mohit Gupta,
Degrade the java version to java 7 update 45 and also degrade the java security level to low from medium. Also delete the java temporary files and also clear your IE browser cache as well.
This solved the issue for me.

Multi pass bursting of a Crystal report on business view with a bex query

In BO CMC, we have a group with a list of user.
The idea is to burst (via the multi pass bursting method) a Crystal report for this list of user with the constraint that this report should only contains data of the store linked to the user.
Our data comes from a SAP BI cube.
The link between a Store and a User comes from an other system.
We have build a bex query and use it as a data source of a Crystal Data Foundation.
In this Data Foundation we have an other table storing the user ID and the Store ID.
These 2 tables are linked in this Data Foundation on the Store ID.
Business element and Business View have also been created on top of this Data Foundation.
We have impletemented a filter in this Data Foundation to filter out data on the user id. This user id will be filled when bursting the report for all requested users thanks to this function :.
As a user is linked to one store, the data foundation will filter the data coming from the bex query and show only the data of the user's store.
We have build a crystal report using the business view created above as data source. We have made some test on a small amount of data and it works, data are correctly filter out and the reports shows only the data from one store.
But the problem is that we have a lot of stores (more than 600) and doing this way implies that the bex query will always return the data for all the stores as the filter will occurs in the data foundation and not on the bex query.
We need to find a way to make the bex query returning only the data of the store linked to the user for which we burst the report.
As we have more than 600 stores this was an idea to avoid managing more than 600 under BO groups or more than 600 different filters.
This solution do not work when the bex query result set is too large.
Does anyone has an idea on how to implement such "dynamic" filter in the bex query? The parameter is the user ID but the filter to be applied on the bex query is on the store ID.
We are under BO XI release 2, Crystal XI Release 2 and we have installed the BO release 2 integration kit for SAP

Hi,

RWI 00200 Error while scheduling the Bex Query based Webi report

Dear All,
I am facing the below error while scheduling the Bex Query based Webi report.
Error:RWI 00200
We are using BO XI 4.0 Sp05.
Please advise

Hi,
I am on BO 4.0 SP05 Patch 6. Webi reports are just showing processing but not giving results. When I try to create new report it is throwing java security error.
Tried applet patch upgrade(From link : https://websmp207.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000902752013E) for webi certificate but didn't help.
Please suggest what could be done.

Can not create Webi report on a Universe based on Bex Query

Hi,
We are using BO XI 3.1 (FP 3.4) with SAP integration Kit (same Patch Level) with SAP Authentication. We have a Universe based on a bex query and its connection is set to use SSO.
We have say two SAP users U1 & U2. Now "U1" is able to create webi reports but when we Logged in as "U2" and try to create Webi reports or try to refresh reports created by U1 it through an error ...
The database error text is: (CS) "Error on NumResultCols" . (WIS 10901).....
As per the "Authorization" section in BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Solution Installation Guide we have provided this users with all the mention autherizations.
Any words over this will be highly appreciated.
Regards,

It is highly probable that this is due to missing authorizations on the SAP BW side (not talking about the authroizations which are directly related to the BO/BW integration). I would recommend to ask your SAP Basis team to do a security trace while you are accessing the reports with the user, who gets the error. THey should look for failing authorization checks.

Perfomance Based on Infocube creation or Bex Query creation

Hi,
I just wanted to know is there any performance is affected whether Universe is created on top of Bex query or on top of Infocube.
Out of these which is the Best practice to follow.
Regards
Gaurav

This is the best practice to follow
build your universe on top of Query not direct infocube
this will keep the row level security applied.
the performance will depend on how you design your query and the amount of data to be retrieved from the infocube.
good luck

Best Practice for BEX Query "PUBLISH to ROLE"?

Hello.
We are trying to determine the best practice for publishing BEX queries/views/workbooks to ROLEs.
To be clear of the process I am referring: from the BEX Query Designer, there is an option QUERY>PUBLISH>TO ROLE. This function updates the user menu of the selected security role with essentially a shortcut to the BEX query. It is also possible to save VIEWS/WORKBOOKS to a role from the BEX Analyzer menu. We have found ROLE menus to be a good way to organize BEX queries/views/workbooks for our users.
Our dilemma is whether to publish to the role in our DEV system and transport to PROD,... or if it is ok to publish to the role directly in the PROD system.
Publishing in DEV is not always possible, as we have objects in PROD that do not exist in DEV. For example, we allow power users to create queries directly in PROD. We also allow VIEWS and WORKBOOKS to be created directly in PROD. It would not be possible to publish types of objects in DEV.
Publishing in PROD eliminates the issues above, but causes concerns for our SECURITY team. We would be able to maintain these special roles directly in PROD.
Would appreciate any ideas, suggestions, examples of how others are handling this BEX publish-to-role process.
Thank you.
-Joel

Hi Joel,
Again as per the Best Practices.Nothing to be created in PRD,even if we create them in PRD for Power users its assumed as temprory and can be deleted at any time.
So if there are already deviations then you can go for deviations in this case as well but it wont be the Best Practice.Also in few cases we have workbooks created in PRD as they cud nt be created in DEV due to various reasons...in such cases we did not think of Best Practice ,we had a raised an OSS on this aswell.
In our Project,we have done everything in DEV and transported to PRD,in case there were any very Minor changes at query level we have done in PRD and immedialtely replicated the same in DEV so that they are in SYNC.

Calling a BW Bex Query in Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi Team,
I'm trying to call a BW Bex query in my web dynpro screen. The Web Dynpro is written in our ERP (ECC 6.0) system. I have specific parameters and values in my web dynpro context which I want to pass to a BW query and then display the actual query in my web dynpro. I found an element BIApplicationFrame but don't know if that is the correct way to display the query. Some questions:
1) How do I pass the username/password for the BW system in the Web Dynpro written in ERP?
2) How do I pass the parameters to the query
3) How is the security and roles managed. The web dynpro is enables as an iView in the SAP Portal.
Thanks much for your guidance.
Regards
Sanjay

Petr:
I managed to pass the selection variables to the query through BIApplicationFrame. This is how I did it.
1) Added the BIApplicationFrame UI element to the View of the Webdynpro application and named it ZBIQUERY with the following properties relevant to my system.
- dataProviderStateName property is set to my query name which is 'ZPUR_M02_Q08'
- dataProviderStateType is set to 'Query'.
- server is set to 'housapdbw.noble.cc:8000'
- templateId is set to 'ZPUR_M02_W02'
- variableScreen is Unchecked.
2) Added two attributes to the view under the attributes tab. They are
M_APPL_FRAME RefTo CL_WD_BIAPPLICATION_FRAME
M_METHOD_HANDLER RefTo IF_WD_BI_APPLFRAME_METHOD_HNDL
3) Then add the following code in the method WDDOMODIFYVIEW.
data:
lt_parameters type if_wd_bi_applframe_method_hndl=>tt_name_value,
ls_parameters type if_wd_bi_applframe_method_hndl=>t_name_value.
define add_parameter.
clear ls_parameters.
ls_parameters-name = &1.
ls_parameters-value = &2.
append ls_parameters to lt_parameters.
end-of-definition.
if first_time = abap_true.
wd_this->m_appl_frame ?= view->get_element( 'ZBIQUERY' ).
wd_this->m_method_handler ?= wd_this->m_appl_frame->_method_handler.
endif.
Please note that the selection screen on my query has Select-options and its name is
XREF_NUM0001. I am passing a value of '11111' to it as shown below.
refresh lt_parameters.
add_parameter 'CMD' 'PROCESS_VARIABLES'. " This is for Execute button
add_parameter 'SUBCMD' 'VAR_SUBMIT'. " This one also for Execute Button
add_parameter 'VAR_NAME_1' 'XREF_NUM0001'. " Name of my select-option
add_parameter 'VAR_OPERATOR_1' 'EQ'.
add_parameter 'VAR_SIGN_1' 'I'.
add_parameter 'VAR_VALUE_LOW_EXT_1' '11111'. " Value for my select-option
wd_this->m_method_handler->execute_command( lt_parameters ).
endif.
The above code needs to be added before the view is called in th is method.
Hope this helps.

Cannot see BEx Query in Creating Universe Connection

Hi,
I have a BEx query based on Multiprovider
I did check the box "Allow External Access to this query" from "Release for OLE DB for OLAP".
When I come to Designer create a connection, that query does not show up.
This has happened with some other query create on that Multi Provider too.
I checked the query for operators.
Note: Queries containing formulas with the operators %RT, %CT, SUMRT, SUMCT and LEAF cannot be released for OLE DB for OLAP. Mentioned in
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/Helpdata/EN/07/0ab63c71f41d5ce10000000a114084/content.htm
I cannot explain why.
What could be possible reason?
Thank you,

Check to make sure the BW role that is used has auth obj S_RS_COMP that provides Display access to the InfoProvider that your query is built on. The userid that runs the Bex query would also needs Execute access to that query. You may need to get your SAP security person to run a trace when you start designer and try to create your connection if you find that your BW role already has the auth I mentioned.
SAP made a recent change with 7.0 SP22 / 7.01 SP5 that applied BW security to the display of queries in the Designer. We could no longer see out BEx quereis in Designer after we applied SP22 until we added Display access to the role we use for our Business Objects service acct we setup.
From SAP Note 1364715 - MDX: Authorization check of BEx queries
Symptom
You use the BAPI "BAPI_MDPROVIDER_GET_CUBES" to read the BEx queries
available in the BW server that have been released for OLE DB for OLAP
(ODBO) (indicator "Allow External Access to this Query" is set in the Query
Designer).
Authorizations are ignored.
Cause and Prerequisites
The authorization check is ignored.
Solution
The authorization check is performed for the user that calls the BAPI. If
an RFC is used to call the BAPI, the check is performed for the RFC user.

When using BW Bex query analyzer users cannot change reporting queries ....

Issue: When using BW Bex query analyzer users cannot change reporting queries. Any attempt to change queries results in errors.
Error: BEx Query Designer: Run-time error '-2147221499 (80040005) Fatal Error - Terminating
Impact: Business reporting is currently being negatively impacted because users cannot modify queries, cannot change filters for fiscal period and fiscal year.
OS / MS Office Suite being used: Vista & Office 2007
Backend System: BW 2.0B
Frontend System: Being a large organization, we have a controlled environment wherein all users will have the following applications installed by default:
1. SAP Client Base 7.10
2. SAP BW 3.5 Patch 4
3. SAP BI 7.10 Patch 900
4. SAP GUI 7.10 Patch 12
Does anyone has any idea as to why we are getting this error? Is it a Vista issue? Is it a front-end issue?

Just a thought - did you guys apply any Microsoft security patches before this started happening - we had a similar issue in other SAP application due to MS security update. Raise an OSS with SAP

FAQ: CR (based on Bex query) bursting with Local profile

We have the following scenario
1. A CR based on BEx query, specified to use a BW account with the property - 'use same DB account for refresh'.
2. Created a profile with two different Groups, each group having a specific CR expression for a field. The users in this group are enterprise aliases not BW aliases
3. Created a publication with the above two Groups as 'Enterprise Recipient'
4. Assigned personalization on a specific field with local profile (the profile created in step2)
When we schedule the publication with the option 'single DB refresh for each batch', it fails with the error "User specific security is in use. One database fetch per recipient must be used"

Hi,
would suggest you open it in the general BusinessObjects forum as this doesn't look to be related to the SAP Integration Kit

The SSO works correctly on Analysis for OLAP.
The Authentication used is the SAP authentication.
Thanks.
Andrea

That's what we're doing in our 4.1 instance as well.
After a lot of troubleshooting, it looks like our problem is related to the SSO set up itself. We set the OLAP Connection to Pre-defined, entered the SAP credentials of one of our developers, then saved the connection. We were able to refresh existing reports and create new reports without any issues. We changed the OLAP connection back to SSO and received the same error message as in OP when we tried to select a BEx query.
I'm going to go through the entire SSO set up again. There was a BW hotfix applied throughout our environments, thinking it might have messed something up.

BO Authorisation implementation from BEx Query Variable

We have created a BEx query which is will be used a source for OLAP Universe.
For implementing Security>> In NW-BI, we have used a Master data, Authorisation Relevant-Info Object called "Authorisation Key"
Next >> In BEx query, In "Filters" TAB, created a variable of type Processed By- Authorization.
Now, my question is how this security implementation that is assigned in:
NW-BI >> BEx query >> Will be implemented on BO Lanscape.
I know that the user in BO Landscape will log-in with credentails of type SAP.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
As you have created the Variable on top of the query then the same will be hold true while consuming the same in Business Objects tool.
Once you create OLAP Universe based on this and while using this universe in any report creation tool, the variable as prompt will be displayed while generating the report.
If you want some more security then you can implement on the universe created with the query.
