Transport query variants

Hi,
I have a lot of query variant which I need in every system.
Is it possible to transport query variants? I already tried to transport the query and variable in the transport connection. Addionally I figured out that the variants are stored in table rsrvariant, but I'm not able to transport the entries.
Regards,
Karen

Hi,
Pls transport the table RSRVARIANT ,which contains the entry for all bex variants, all variants will be transported then.You should transport the table contents(via SE16 or SE10).Create a request in SE09 or SE10. From the context menu of the transport no, go to object list (or double click). On the next screen go to 'change' mode.Press 'add new entry' (plus icon).

How to transport Query variant used in APD

Hello Experts,
I have created 2 query variants for a query in Development system. And, these variants are being used in APD. Now, when APD is transported to next system, query variants does not exist in next system, so cannot execute APD.
Please let me know how can i transport the query variants.
Note: Gone through SDN, and found, query variants can be transported through some tables.
Please let me any other possibile sloutions for the same.
Thanks
Lavanya

Hi Lavanya,
To the best of my knowledge, you cannot transport query variants. You have to manually create them in each system. The reason being, when you try to create variants through RSRT -> Query Variants, you are basically trying to create variants for a temporary program generated during run time!
These run time programs do not have TADIR entries (not transportable) and hence any sub elements (like variants) created on these programs are not transportable as well.
Actually you can export variants.Please follow the below steps:
1. Go To TCode SE38.
2. Execute "RSTRANSP".
3. Input your program name.
4. Input your variant name ie. "Z**** ".
5. Execute.
6. Click on continue.
7. You should be able to create a new transport at this point.
Hope It Helps,
Thanks,
Amit Kr.

Can we transport BW QUERY VARIANT (created in DEV) to QAS and PRD?

Hi gurus,
I created a lot of QUERY VARIANT ( parameters saved when we execute queries ) in BW DEV.
I am using those variants in my Analisys Process Designer and i do not want to create again in QAS and PRD.
Somebody knows how to transport those variants?
Is possible to assign by SE03? What is the code that object?
Thanks for any Help!!!

I transported my Query Variants.
- Variants must be created in DEV
- Download the records from:
> tables
RSRVARIANT
RSRVARIANTDIR
RSRVARIANTTXT
> Filter Field: VARI = "Query Variants Code"
- Create request in DEV
- Assign R3TR TABU <Table name>
Tables:
RSRVARIANT
RSRVARIANTDIR
RSRVARIANTTXT
- Save the contents in each table (Only KEY FIELDS)
- Verify the Lenght in each field, it must be correct (no spaces for each Field)
I hope it helps you!

Transport standard variant of SAP Query

Hey,
I made a SAP Query with SQO1. Within the attributes of the query, I defined a standard variant.
How can I transport this variant.
When I go to maintain variant, I can click to program RSTRANSP.
When I try to execute, I get the following message "Function not possible for local/private objects". In the help it says that I have to create a transport for my program.
But my query is in a transport. I already transported the query to QAS and it works fine.
Do I have to put the program also in a transport? The program is SAP generated code with the following name "AQZZZISU========CP_METERS=====". I haven't transported the program but it is available in QAS. So I think I don't need to transport it.
Does anyone how I can transport my variant?
Thanks
Steven

Copy Query Variants from InfoCube to MultiProvider

Hi,
Is it possible to copy query variants from an infocube to a multiprovider?
Basically, we used RSZC to copy the queries from the infocube to the multiprovider, but it doesn't look like the variants were copied over. Is there an ABAP program or some other workaround that can expedite/facilitate in recreating the variants on the multiprovider queries?
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
KK

It is possible to copy but the only requirement is your target cube structure should match with the source cube structure.

How to transport BEX variants in BI?

Hi,
after the bw-upgrade we have problems with the transport of our variants created in BEX. In BW 3.1 we used saplsvar ( with report-id and variantname) to create a transport. But this doesn't work with BI. Does anyone know which parameter saplsvar need to create a transport in BI?- Or which other alternativ exists to transport a variant.
Thanx in advance.

Hi,
the new variants will be stored only in RSRVARIANT, but not in the VARID. In VARID are only the variants saved in 3.x version.
But how can I transport RSRVARIANT; its a SAP-table?
I'm looking for a program like RSTRANSP, because this program will not work with BI.

How to disable GLOBAL query variants in Portal (ANALYSIS Template)

Hello Experts,
Does anybody know how to disable the saving of global query variants on the selection screen?
Currently if anybody goes in and saves the variant with Description and puts something in the Technical Name, it saves that variant as global, so that everybody can see it. If they put something in the description only and leave the technical name blank, then it saves the variant as local. Therefore, how would I go about disabling the saving of global query variants?
Thank you,
Andrei

Bex Query variants not working

Hello Experts,
I have a unique problem with one of my queries, the query variants which are created before Nov 1 are not fetching any vaules instead it gives a message MAKE ENTRY IN ALL THE FIELDS......
the variants which are created in Nov are working fine.....we have not done any upgrade....
does anyone faced this kind of problem? what needs to done to get back the variant values in the selection screen.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards

Was there a change to an InfoObject that is in the InfoProvider that is also one of the query input options?
e.g. IO ZHARA used to be defeined as a Char with a length of 4, but was changed after Nov 1 to Char, length of 8.
If you change an IO like this that is in the variant, that will render the variant unusable.
There is a program that checks for variants that have been broken like this, and another that you enter the query's technical name and it repairs the variant.
Try a search on SDN for something like "query variant program". I'll post the program names after I get back in the office tomorrow.

Creating Query Variant

Hi,
I am trying to create a query variant in BI7. I want the values to be populated from TVARVC table. In RSRT, if i am giving Create variant, i am getting the next screen to enter the values.(same as we get in 3.5). but it does not show the query fields. It is showing these fields in attributes.
Query
HTML
URL
URL2
URL3
URL4
Where i can get the query fields (Like in 3.5) to populate from TVARVC table?
Thanks Pravender.

If you are on BI 7 better to handle the variants in table RSRVARIANT than TVARVC.
You can write code to update the table RSRVARIANT as per requirement.
Hope this helps.

Query Variant in APD not working properly

Hi
Guyz,
I have an issue using a Query Variant in APD.
My APD has data populating from a Query to a DSO.
When I run the query itself by using the variant it runs fine
but when i use the same query variant in the APD its giving an error.
I am saving the varaint for current Fiscal year period
i.e say 0072008 (as july 2008) and when i run query itself with this variant its fine but when i use the same in APD its giving the following error.
*" Value "08007" for variable "Fiscal Year/Period (Selection Options, Optional)" is invalid "*
Its interpreting the variant in a wrong way.
We are on BI 7.0 patch 14.
Your help is Appreciated.
Thanks
Jay.

Shashi,
I think thats not my issue because I can use that variant but its interpreting the Fiscal year period in a wrong way.
Thanks
Jay.

Query variant in rsrt

In RSRT, there is an option to create a query variant. How can we use this? I have a variable on 0calmonth and I want to create variants based on this so I can use it in a APD process. How can I do this? Thanks

Hi Uday,
You can create and maintain the query variants in RSRT. Type in the name of the query and click to execute it. The variable screen will pop-up and you can create the variant here. Or also you can click onthe Variants button and change any existing variants as required.
Hope this helps...

Cannot save query variant in RSRT

I am trying to create query variants in RSRT. I am able to do it for most of the queries. But there are couple of queries for which I am not able to save it. Has anyone come across this issue before.
FYI - We are right now on SAP 7.31 and SP 4.
Thanks,
Kal

Hi Kal,
Did you upgraded to BW7.31 recently?. if yes, run the report: RSR_VARIANT_XPRA.. This is the post upgrade activity. Can you check with the basis team run the same first in SAN system and then in actual landscape.
