Workbook help

Hi,
I have 3 reports that are to be done and the users want to see all these reports in one layout. So I had used a workbook to have all the reports displayed in one layout.
While creating each of the reports on an individual basis I had selected the same Characteristics as the Selection Variables and also as the Free characteristics. When I execute each of these reports individually I am able to drill down on the characteristics I have included in each report.
The way I created my workbook is, first I executed Report 1 and then saved it as a workbook and then inserted the other 2 reports by going into the design mode and stuff and successfully merged all of the 3 reports into 1 workbook.
So the issue here is, since the selection variables for all the 3 reports are the same I don't have a problem executing the report, but when I want to drill down on the free characteristics ( For all the 3 reports Free Characteristics are the same ), I am able to drill down only on the Report 1 that I had executed first and saved as a workbook. But am unable to drill down on the other 2 reports that I had inserted into the workbook later.
So I had tried a trial & error method where this time I have first executed Report 2, saved it as a workbook and then inserted the queries for report 1 & report 3 and I am able to drill down only on report 2 which I had executed and saved as a workbook.
I also tried saving each of reports as views and then created a workbook but still the same result. I am using MS-Office 2007.
So I want to know, is this the way we can work with workbooks or is there a way where we can drill down on all the 3 reports. If we can drill down on all the reports in a workbook, kindly let me know how we go about it. Kindly pass on your suggestions and it's pretty urgent so earlier the better.
Thanks a lot,
Guru.

Hi Guru,
I think you will have to do some VBA. Please follow this link Drilldown across all querries...

  • Broadcasting BW-Workbook help needed

    Hi All,
    When I try to execute the broadcast settings in the Web Application Designer for a BW-Workbook 'Active RFC server could not be found' error appears. Along with 'An error occurred while processing CL_RSRD_PRODUCER_EXCEL, type PROD'.
    As I don't have any idea how to set up an active RFC server. Will transaction SM59 help as it is related to RFC maintenance.

    Hi,
    You need to install the precalculation server before distributing the workbook through information broadcaster .For more information refer OSS 936112 - Troubleshooting for workbook. (PDF Doc attached )

    Hii Puneet K & nyc,
    Thanks a lot for ur links guys... am already done ...will upload the working code shortly...and am facing some other problem now...when I execute the program in LV 11.0 version its working fine, but when I try to run the same code in LV10.0 (32 bit machine) its showing this error
    "Error -2146827284 occurred at Exception occured in Microsoft Office Excel: Excel cannot insert the sheets into the destination workbook, because it contains fewer rows and columns than the source workbook.

    This error code is undefined. Undefined errors might occur for a number of reasons. For example, no one has provided a description for the code, or you might have wired a number that is not an error code to the error code input.
    Additionally, undefined error codes might occur because the error relates to a third-party object, such as the operating system or ActiveX. For these third-party errors, you might be able to obtain a description of the error by searching the Web for the error code (-2146827284) or for its hexadecimal representation (0x800A03EC)."

  • Ora-03106 problem

    Hi,
    My problem is:
    I've a very simple function in the database:
    FUNCTION E return number is
    i number;
    begin
    select count(*) into i from ceg;
    return i;
    end;
    As you see it does nothing but gives back a count of any table.
    When I try to call this function from Oracle Forms (or Reports) I get a message: "ora-03106 fatal two-task communication protocol error."
    I get this message right after to try to compile this code.
    There wasn't any change in database's config files ("NLS_..." or any), there isn't any log in RDBMS's alert log files.
    RDBMS: 9.0.1 (ps3)
    Server OS: IBM AX 4.3
    Client OS MS Win2000/WinNT

    What can I do?
    Please help.

  • Discoverer Plus Drill into Item - URGENT

    Is the drill into item option available om Discoverer Plus? Because in Desktop Edition works fine, but in this web version, it's not present in the sheet menu nor double-clicking on any items.

    Hello Rod
    UPDATE:
    - when the privileges are changed directly to the user, setting the scheduling to "User is never required to schedule workbooks" helped.
    But it means I will have to monitor if a user has been added and setting him this directly. Do you see any option to avoid this (as I said in my post above, users and their private connections and role grants are done automatically).
    Thank you for help!

  • DART Extract and View Logs

    Issues with DART 2.4/5   We have hundreds of thousands of DART files and the extract and view logs transactions timeout.   For the past 10 years or so we were able to ignore the use of the logs (because we could not open the transactions!) ... by confirming the record counts with custom reconciliation programs and reviewing the record count in the view joblog against the extract information via the extract browser.   The new version of DART does not provide the file record count in the joblog like the previous versions of DART have done.  We just created a new instance and the logs work for now .. but as we are a very large company ... and we have to DART our data each month for more than a thousand companies ... the number of files will soon cause the log transactions to timeout just like in our other instances.  Is there way to rebuild the log (TXW_DIR2 and TXW_VWLOG2) to remove any deleted files (we manage our files in the UNIX directory and not through the log transactions).  Wouldn't it make sense to allow filtering of what directory we want to view the log for???  Instead of trying to list the everything?

    I'm a complete Applescript newbie, so any help would be really appreciated! Thank you.

    my variables are global for all data providers since I use the same query for my data providers.
    It's just the values (some of them : ex: conso version) that differ from one data provider to another.
    ex : here for 2 diff Data providers based on the same query i need to enter the following values for mandatory variables
    Different versions / different years but same conso group / data entry year/ posting period.
    i would like to have the possibility to enter these values out of the "select values for variable" window (not convenient when we have 7 or 8 DP...), but directly in the workbook.
    But maybe this is not possible...
    In DP1                 
    conso version = A_PL                         
    conso group = FR01
    data entry year = 9999
    fiscal year = 2010
    Posting period = 12
    In DP2
    Conso version = P4_MAG
    Conso group = FR01
    Data entry year = 9999
    fiscal year =2011
    Posting period = 12

  • Help Required in Authorization Roles for Workbooks

    Hi All,
    In our project, we have a requirement of creating a role for users with below authorizations.
    1.     Can display and execute the workbooks in the role menu.
    2.     Can create copy workbooks ( Save as) in the role menu.
    3.     Can not delete the original and the copy workbooks from role menu.
    We are using an authorization object S_RS_FOLD with u2018FALSEu2019 for restricting the user from deleting workbooks.
    We also need to add one more object S_USER_AGR (without u2018Deleteu2019 property) to give the authorization of creating copy workbooks in the role menu.
    Object S_RS_FOLD this is working fine without S_USER_AGR. But after adding S_USER_AGR (without delete property), user is again able to delete the workbooks.
    So how can we achieve both the functionalities where user can not delete the workbook but can create copy workbooks in the role menu.
    Thanks,
    Sachin

    Re: Adding report (query & workbook, templates) in roles
    Go through this thread.
    And in our Project we have created one role for accessing workbooks. in that end user can access the work book but saved one and user cannot resave or delete the work book.
    we have added Auth objects S_TCODE and S_GUI.
    in S_TCODE we have added RRMX and in S_GUI we have given 60(IMPORT) access to the users.
    So that they can just share the workbook. nothing else can be done.
    Try like this. Hope this would help you.

  • Help needed in calculations in Workbook for input query

    hi friends ,
    Iam displaying an input query in the Workbook ..the format of the query is
    Account                                  Amount
    1010 Undistributed Amount     $ 2000
    1010 PC1
    1010 PC2
    1010 PC3
    The use 0f this query is to distribute the undistributed amount for below 3 profit centers .When a amount is entered for PC1,the entered amount must be reduced from the undistributed amount .Bottom line is the undistributed amount must be refreshed everytime an amount is entered for PC1,PC2,PC3 and vice versa ..
    I tried writing some excel formulas but no use .when the query is in edit mode i was not able to write the formulas to the cells.
    Please give me your valuable inputs and help me getting this function work.

    Hi,
    We acheive the same requirement in our project by creating one more characteristic which will be derived from the changed record .You can refer the How to guide given below.Once you get the delta record then you can redistribute the same by using the FOX formula,taking the derived characteristic into aggregation level and checking for it's value.
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/a05666e5-91bf-2a10-7285-a80b7f5f7fd2&overridelayout=true
    For example: one WBS element span across three periods ,initially all with same amount ,if I change the value for one period the remaining amount should be equally distributed in remaining periods.Special characteristic value is "A" intially.Now if i change the amount for 010.2009 to 100,the remaining 500 should be equally distributed.
    HEADER LINE.
    WBS,Period,Zdelta,Amount
    WBS1 010.2009  A  200
    WBS1 011.2009  A  200
    WBS1 012.2009  A  200
    Now when I change the amount from 200 to 100 the negative delta will be posted to ZDELTA as"X" with the value -100.So now in the cube the records will be like:-
    WBS1 010.2009  A  100
    WBS1 010.2009  X  -100
    WBS1 011.2009  A  200
    WBS1 012.2009  A  200
    Now you can write the fox formula in which you can check the total amount will be less than the original amount.So now you can post the remaining amount to the records where ZDELTA dose not have the value X.
    Hope this may work out for you.

  • I need help obtaining a number from a previous sheet inside the same workbook...

    I am basically trying to put together a system for tracking the hours I work as a casual against the hours I get paid for.
    I have setup a sheet that allows me to enter in my daily hours for a pay fortnight (plus some other information such as breaks etc.)
    I then enter in the hours I was paid from my payslip and I often have a discrepancy which I have titled OUTSTANDING HOURS.
    (This discrepancy is caused by my wing of the business running on a Thursday to Wednesday week whilst the pay office runs Sunday to Saturday - this overlap is why I wish to track my hours so carefully)
    I have a new sheet for each pay fortnight. Fortnight 1 / Fortnight 2 / Fortnight 3 for example (they are actually titled by the date range of each fortnight)
    What I am hoping to be able to do is automatically bring the previous fortnight's OUTSTANDING HOURS cell into a specific cell on the following sheet.
    I know how to do this using =PRODUCT('Fortnight 1' :: Master :: E27) - where e27 is the OUTSTANDING HOURS total from the sheet titled Fortnight 1
    This however requires the OUTSTANDING HOURS to always come from Fortnight 1.
    When I get to Fortnight 3 I would want the OUTSTANDING HOURS to come from Fortnight 2 sheet.
    Can this be setup so that it takes the info from the previous sheet in the workbook rather than a specifically titled sheet... Or will I have to change this formula everytime I duplicate my MASTER....
    Thanks for any help...

    TIG,
    I suggest that you use the INDIRECT(ADDRESS()) form of addressing. The last parameter in the ADDRESS function is the TableName. Use a table cell reference in TableName's position and in that cell, type the table name from which the data is to come. This way all your equations stay the same from Sheet to Sheet, but the name of the previous sheet is entered into a cell as data, self documenting and easy to edit.

  • Please HELP: save workbook with initial selection variables

    Hey folks,
    I'm very frustrated.
    I'd like to save a workbook without results and without any historical values in popup selection screen, but I'm not able to do.
    Does anyone knows an answer?
    I tried a lot, but haven't got any idea anymore.
    PLEASE HELP.
    I'm using the new SAP-BI 7.0 FrontEnd BEx-Analyzer.
    Hope you can help as soon as possible.
    Thanks in advance.
    Nico

    hey ottoman,
    I didn't get the last tip.
    Edit the variable I'm using and goto default tab?
    The possible variables are shown if I refresh and they were shown in a popup, where I can select the parameters. But if I clear the the results and want to run, an error occured, because it's an obligatory variable.
    As an alternative I tried to cancel. After it my workbook is cleared, but my formats are blown away
    That's why I haven't got any solution to save the workbook with an initial selection popup.
    Hope you have another idea?
    Thanks.

  • F4 Help list not showing values when a BEx 7x workbook is refreshed

    Hello All,
    Hope you are doing good. I have a very peculiar behaviour with F4 functionality of a variable while refreshing a workbook and thus requesting for your help.
    The workbook contains two queries. Both of these queries contains a common variable (of common characteristic).
    Info_Provider
    Query_Name
    Characteristic_Name
    Variable_Name
    Multi_Provider_1
    Query1
    Char1
    Var1
    Multi_Provider_2
    Query2
    Char1
    Var1
    When Query1 and Query2 are refreshed individually, the variable Var1 (basically a plant variable) shows the help list values.
    But when the workbook is refreshed (that's when both the queries gets executed together with a common variable screen) and
    upon clicking the help list of the variable Var1 doesn't show any values.
    Additional Info:
    1. Both the variables are configured to show data from Master table.
    2. The same set up works fine in 3x and also for other similar variables.
    Has anybody come across of this situation? If so, what is the issue and what was the solution?
    Pls share.
    Thank you.
    Lohith

    We recently had a similar issue with a variable... turns out the RSR_VARIABLE_F4_RESTRICT_BADI BADI was activated for this variable (and the code was no longer "valid" with the current situation).
    You may want to check whether you have that BADI activated.

Maybe you are looking for
