Using Bex query in XCelsius 2008

Hi,
We have XCelsius 2008 SP3 and out BI ABAP and JAVA systems are on EHP1 with SP05.
I have already done the configurations as per SAP note 937697 and all traffic lights became green now.
But, still we're unable to connect to BEx using XCelsius.
Anyone using BEx in XCelsius could provide some suggestion please..

Hi,
why are you unable to connect? An error message and number would be helpful for the community in order to help you.
Best regards
Victor

  • Using Bex query through Query Browser - add result set to Cell range?

    Hi all,
    I have up to now used Xcelsius on NW with BICS connection towards BEx queries.
    When I use this connection via Data Manager in Xcelsius, I'm able to use the Cross-table functionality to insert my entire dataset into a cell Range.
    But now I have an requirement to save my Dashboards on the BO server, so I need to go through Query Browser to extract data from SAP BW to my Dashboard.
    When inserting the query in the Query browser and I want to assign the data to Excel ranges, it seems like I need to do this for each individual Infoobject and Key Figure. Since I have many Key Figures (30-50), this is a lenghty process.
    Is there a way to insert the entire dataset from Query into a cell range (both rows and columns), or do I need to do this for each Key Figure as indicated in the screen shot above?
    --> I know that the Query Browser flattens my cross-table from the Query, but still, it should be possible to avoid to input all my Key Figures (30-50) individually to corresponding cells in my Excel part of the Dashboard.
    regards

    Hi Oddmar,
    If you want to display the data retrieved from the query you could map the data using the Query data.
    Pull scorecard component (for example) and in properties if you see the Display data click on the dropdown and select Query data.
    Hope this helps !

  • Bex query in Xcelsius

    Dear Xcelsius Experts,
    Im having a trouble about displaying bex query data on xcelsius.
    After adding a new connection i browsed my query then selected insert in area on excel.
    I can see my kef figures on preview tab.On the usage tab refresh on load and use query data options are already checked.
    Im also sure about my selectors (list box,combobox etc) data insertation done correctly.
    Am I missing something?
    Thanks
    Nil
    p.s:im using Xcelcius sp2

    Dear Nil,
    If you pull the data from SAP BW using "SAP Netweaver BI connection",the whole set of data from SAP BW Query will be available through Cross Tab Data under "Output values" of "Definition" tab.So just Put one Spread sheet table or List View
    item in the Workspace and simply map the Cross tab data into some Excel cells range and then map the same range of Excel cells into the Design component(Spread sheet table or List View).This will show the complete data (chars and KFs) which comes from SAP BW Query into the design component at runtime.
    Hope this helps you!

  • WebElements: HTML not rendering when using Bex Query as Source

    Hi all,
    Has anyone managed to use the WebElements when creating a report on a BW source (BEx) query. I have used WebElements quite a lot on non-SAP sources and works like a charm. Now I would like to use it on a SAP environment, but the controls are not displaying, only the HTML text.
    Can anyone provide some insight to whether the WebElements are compatible on a SAP environment in Crystal or s there something special that needs to be done here.
    Thanks
    Jacques

    Dear Jamie & Jacques,
    Is there any news regarding this issue? I'm having the same issue here. I'm using BW datasource. My BOE, Crystal Report 2008, and Integration Kit are all on SP3 (with no FP applied yet).
    All the WebElements components are shown as HTML tag.
    But actually when i tried to remove the Datasource, the WebElements also don't show up. I've followed up all the instructions on the WebElements guide, and on the SDN link below.
    I added WECalculator and WEBuilder using formula syntax below to the report. But they only show up as HTML tag.
    Formula @calc (component WECalculator)
    WECalculator ("number", "0", "Integer", "Enter an Integer value.")
    Formula @builder (component WEBuilder)
    stringvar allelements:= {@calc};
    WEBuilder(allelements, 1)
    I've done everything as per the guide and SDN link below:
    browser interpretation
    [Interpreting WebElements in the browser;
    1) ensure that Can Grow is not checked on for the formulae that contain any webelements.
    done
    2) ensure that the formula in the designer is only 1 line in height...these 2 are required to make pass through html work in the viewers
    done, i insert the 2 formulas to report and it appears as 1 single line.
    3) the web server should be restarted after making the change to the web.xml file
    done
    if the above don't work please provide some more info such as
    a) which version of business objects enterprise you are using
    BOE, Crystal Report, and Integration Kit all on SP3. Below are the installation files i used (downloaded from SAP Service Marketplace).
    Server
    1. BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 (ENTERPRISE03_0-10007443.EXE)
    2. SAP BusinessObjects Integration XI 3.1 SP3, version for SAP solutions (BOBJINTGRSAP03_0-51038935.ZIP) u2013 Server installation

    2. Crystal Report 2008 v1 (SP3) Win Server on IA32 32bit Full Build (51038906.ZIP)
    b) what viewer are you using
    I ran the rpt file (saved without using .rpt extension) through InfoView.
    c) does the select menu show up in the crystal reports designer html preview mode
    It only shows up as HTML tag as well in the Crystal Report designer HTML preview mode.
    Please help me.

  • Which is better to use: BEx query or Web Application as an iView in portal?

    Hi gurus!
    Are there any experienced opinions, which is better - publish a BEx query in portal or publish a BEx Web Application in portal? Is it easier to alter the layout attributes etc. if I create a BEx Web Application first before publishing?
    What is the way of fixing for example filter item height if I publish BEx query in portal - is there a Web Application that it uses anyhow which I can fix? Or can I use in that case iView -properties in portal?
    Thankful for advice
    Sari

    ok, means i can use jsp:useBean tag for all my
    classes that are not actually bean. so it will be
    instantiated at run time and provide efficiency .No. Jsp:useBean is used for java bean components.
    >
    but when should i use import statement in my jsp and
    it happen at translation time so will it create any
    type of burden for my code if i import multiple
    classes.For non-java beans, you need to import the classes, period.
    It's not a burden, it's a necessity.

  • #Multivalue Error on Webi when Using BEx Query

    Hi All,
    I have created a Webi Report on top of SAP BW BEx Query. I have created a variable in Webi on top of a dimension. When I add that variable in the report block some of the Measures are showing as #Multivalue. I know we can get rid of this by creating a universe and then changing the properties of the measure to sum. However we do not plan to have a universe and would want to make the changes in the BEx query or in the Webi Report whereever applicable.
    Kindly suggest the solution at the earliest.
    Regards,
    James

    HI James,
    Creat Variable =
    =sum(Tonumber([Dimension]))
    use this variable in report , it will help you

  • WebI Prompts using BEx Query Variables

    Hello,
    I have the following issues with WebI report selection input paramaters (prompts) that use BW BEx Query variables. Could anyone please assist?
    Issue 1:
    The WebI report has one mandatory and two optional input paramaters (all paramaters from BW BEx Query). When I execute the report via WebI rich client directly, enter the value for mandatory input parameter and leave blanks for both optional input parameters, the report ran OK and has no issue. However, when I ran it through CMC a strange thing happen: I could not select the value for mandatory input paramater as it requires to have values for both optional input paramaters first (which I wish to have them blank and optional). When I refersh values for the mandatory paramater, it says "List of Values for current prompt requires values for following prompts:...(ie. the two optional parameters).
    Anyone has any idea - it seems like it is a CMC issue for the WebI...
    Issue 2:
    Take the same WebI report above, the issue here is the order sequence of the prompts (ie. the selection input parameters). How can we change/control the sequence of the prompts? Whatever sequence of the varaiables (input paramters) in BW BEx Query, the WebI ignores it. Please advise.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Andy

    I did not see separate thread for issue #1, therefore I'll us this thread.
    I am running into similar issue when I get an error message ''List of Values for current prompt requires values for following prompts: <Name of the prompt>".
    We are using BO V4, SP2, Patch 10 with SAP BW as DB via BEx queries.
    I opened support ticket for this issue since obviousely it's still an issue after applying patch 10.
    It's not an issue when 'Rich Internet Application' option is selected to view report in 'Reading' mode (via Launchpad Preferences then Web Inteligence; defautl value for viewing is 'Web').
    I have not tried to use Client tools but even if it works with Client tools - it is not a solution for us. Our company does not plan to install client tools on end user computers.
    Bigger issue us is that report scheduling invokes Web version (not Rich Internet Application). Therefore we cannot schedule report that is giving us problem described. I tried scheduling report from Launchpad and from CMC and both game me error highlighted.

  • Using Bex Query with cell definition with WEBI

    Hi,
    Currently I am using a Bex query as a datasource for a webi, normally this works ok but I am having trouble with one particular query.
    This query has cell definitions defined in the query. When i import the query into WEBI I get an MDX error.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Flash

    Hi,
    We do not see all elements of the BW query in the universe, just those not using cell definitions.
    We are currently on Business objects XI 3.1
    Using BW 3.5
    And the query runs fine using RSRT, it does show some asterix for some of the values but this can be removed by filtering on currency type in BW report
    Thank You,

  • How set current month in Voyager using BEX Query 7.0

    Hi:
      I have a voyager workspace connected a SAP BI Query 7.0. My query shows information since 2007 to 2009
      How I can set current month in characteristics defined in slice section? I tried to use a exit variable in proposed values query section but it doesn't works, when I use filter section in my BEX query it show only  information for 1 month.
    Thanks
    Marta Díaz

    Hi,
    From the problem report i understand that you want to open the Voyager workspace with all the data, but want to analyze for only the current month. 
    You can achieve it in the following manner.
    a) Open the Voyager report.
    b) Click on the member selector of the slice.
    c) Deselect the default member and then select the current month.
    d) Click on OK button.
    This should show you the data for only the current month.
    If you want to make use of exit variable by using the SAP query designer then try using the current calendars month variable.
    You can also refer from the discussion below in the thread to create a variable.
    Dafault value previous month in BEx
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • 4.x: Document Link passing range parameter to a WebI rpt using BEx query

    I'm new to working with BEx queries, so I may use the wrong terminology.  I'm trying to create a document hyperlink from one WebI report to another.  Both are based on BEx queries, which I didn't create, nor do I have access to modify.  The BEx query for the target report has a parameter, Fiscal year/period, which is a range parameter.  The displayed value in a report or in pick lists is in the format "JUL 2010".  The key is in the format "K4/007/2010". 
    I have tried using the Document Link expert to configure passing the range parameter, but have been unsuccessful.  The typical result is an error message, ERR_WIS_30270, which is most likely the result of an incorrect format for passing the range.  I've not been able to locate adequate documentation that describes the syntax for passing a range value to a BEx parameter.  I've successfully created Document Links to reports using BEx queries that have a parameter that requires a single value, and I've done Document links in non-Bex reports in 3.1 without issues.
    Has anyone successfully passed a range value to a BEx paramter?   If so, what syntax did you use?
    The environment is BI 4.0, sp 2 (14.0.2.439)

    Marianne,
    Thanks for the heads up on the fixpack.  I tried looking at the note # you sent, but a search of SAP Notes says that the note has not been released.  However, reviewing the Fixed Issues in fixpack 6 shows the following item:
    ADAPT01580012
    Link to a WebIntelligence report using syntax OpenDocument fails when target document contains a prompt
    based on a BEx variable of type Interval. Error message is "An internal error occurred while calling
    'answerPromptEx' API. (Error: ERR_WIS_30270)".
    Behavior is now correct and refresh operation takes into account interval answer passed in OpenDocument URL.
    Now we just need to upgrade to fp 2.6 to see if it resolves this issue.  I've also opened a ticket with support, so I'll see what they say.
