Workbook issue

I opened a workbook in BEx Analyzer ,changed something in the workbook. Now the issue is when I click "save workbook" it does not prompt me to a transport. Do you know why ?. My requiremnet is I need to put the workbook changes into a transport.
Thanks
Liza

I collected workbooks through TR. But the issue is when I change the workbook and save it , it does not save in the transport. If I open the workbook again , I don't see the changes. Any idea or any settings I need please advice.
Thanks

BW Browser: Open 3.x and 7.0 Query/Workbook - Issue with 7.0 Workbook

Dear All,
We migrated to BI 7.0 in April. New Queries, Workbooks etc. we would like to create with the new functionality of 7.0. Currently the users are using the BW Browser to navigate and select their Queries/Workbooks/WebServices etc for their Business Scenarios. In a long term we will replace the BW Browser by the Portal solution, but this is planned by mid next year. So, we need the BW Browser functening for 3.x and 7.0.
Some more background information:
A typical Workstation has the following Settings:
u2022Windows Vista Business 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001
u2022Microsoft Office Excel 2007 SP1 MSO
u2022Patch 5 für 3.x bw350gui710_5-10004473
u2022Patch 902 für 7.0 bi710sp09p_902-10004472
u2022BEXBrowser 3.5 Version 3571.5.0.54 3571.5.0.143
In BW in transaction RRMX_CUST the flag is set for the option, that automatically the correct Version for BEX Analyzer is started. The user parameter RRMX_VERSION is not set. So not overriding the global customizing setting.
From the SAP Easy Access Menu it's possible to open 3.x Workbooks as well as 7.0 Workbooks without any issue automatically in the correct BEX Analyzer version.
The ISSUE is: that from the BW Browser only the 3.x Workbook is opened correctly. If you open an 7.0 Workbook an VB Runtime Error is coming up (13 - Type incompatibility).
I checked already the OSS and searched in the SDN Forum but haven't been ale to find any answer to this issue.
Does anybody of you have experiences with BW Browser and 3.x + 7.0 Workbooks?
Many thanks and best regards,
Peggy

Found the solution for this issue. See OSS note 1311770. The note itself does not deal with starting 7.0 WBs from BExBrowser but when you implement the suggestion (setting a registry entry on the client PC) BExBrowser is starting the correct Analyzer version for 3.5 WB und 7.0 WB.

BEx workbooks - Issue with FIND in BEx

Hi All,
We have an issue with workbooks.
When user tries to FIND with * in BEx in BW production he is able to see other's workbooks.
How do we restrict the Find or disable the FIND in BEx for workbooks.
Thanks & Regards,
Sai

Hi Sai,
It is not possible to restrict this workbook search...or disable it...
your user should however only have access to the workbooks that your have assigned to him via the roles mechanism. It is via
this roles mechanism that you can prevent a user from accessing other users workbooks.

Orla.

Worksheet content being overwritten by another worksheet from same workbook

Has anyone else experienced this issue in Plus and Viewer.
On a handful of occasions now I have had the data content part of a worksheet overwritten with that from another worksheet within the same workbook. The title, text area and worksheet descriptions stay the same, but the items selected in my crosstab, the conditions used, calcs used are replaced with those used a different worksheet. The worksheets are all using items from the same folders in the EUL, but each one selects slightly different columns from the others and each has a couple of specific conditions.
This happened today when I switched from one worksheet to another in Plus, then back to the original sheet. The original sheet data content was overwritten by the content from the worksheet I had switched to!!
The worksheet is only being accessed via Plus and Viewer, not Desktop and the version is 10.1.2.48.18.

Hi,
I'm with Russ. This sounds ugly and I've never seen it before. However, there is another interesting thing that happened to someone else in 9.0.4 version recently where the workbook was owned by one owner, shared to another, a modification made to the workbook by the shared to userid. The original workbook accepted the change. It sounds like this was caused by IDENTIFIER issues. Could it be possible, (improbable I think), that the IDENTIFIER on each worksheet is the same? I don't know how this could happen but I bet a million dollars once (that I don't have) that the workbook situation couldn't happen. To check this, right click on each worksheet name and checkout the IDENTIFIER. I also think you should log a SR. It would be nice if you would post the resolution here once one is found.
The workbook issue has been logged as bug 7565438 . (problem identified by stephen lee)
Thanks for sharing an interesting issue!

New Apps User defaults with all User Edition Privileges - Security Breach?

Please check the following Scenario/Issue and please let me know if anyone has a solution for it.
1. In Apps, created following Responsibilities
- Payables Inquiry-Only User
- Projects Inquiry-Only User
2. In Discoverer Admin, Tools->Privileges, assigned following privilege to "Payables Inquiry-Only User"
- User Edition Parent only (unchecked all child privileges such as Create/Edit Query)
3. In Discoverer Admin, Tools->Security, mapped following Responsibilities/Business Areas (BA)
- Resp: Payables Inquiry-Only User BA: AP Payables
- Resp: Projects Inquiry-Only User BA: PA Projects
4. In Apps, created user DISC_INQUIRY_USER, assigned following responsibilities
- Payables Inquiry-Only User
- Projects Inquiry-Only User
5. At this stage, if user connects to User Edition;
- user is able to create new query in BA: AP Payables or BA: PA Projects depending on login Responsibility
- By default Discoverer assigns all User Edition Privileges to new Apps User including Create/Edit Query
Requirement
1. Create new Apps User DISC_INQUIRY_USER, assign it Inquiry-Only Responsbilities
2. Login to User Edition - DISC_INQUIRY_USER: Payables Inquiry-Only User
- User can inquiry Workbooks associated with Resp: Payables Inqiry-Only user
- Should not be able to create new workbooks
3. Login to User Edition - DISC_INQUIRY_USER: Projects Inquiry-Only User
- User can inquiry Workbooks associated with Resp: Projects Inquiry-Only User
- Should not be able to create new workbooks
Issue
There is time-gap between creating Apps User and login to Discoverer Admin to remove user privileges. This is security Breach, is their any way to change get around it.
- Discoverer gives precedence to Responsibility Privileges over User Privileges. Is their any way to change it?
- Is it possible to change default Privileges for new Apps User?
- I am facing this issue in Discoverer 4.1.48, Does discoverer Admin behaves differently in latest Versions?

Nobody helps you except yourself. ;)
So, this query get privileges for user PUBLIC
select eap.ap_id, eap.gp_app_id
from eul5_eul_users eeu,
eul5_access_privs eap
where eeu.eu_username = 'PUBLIC'
and eap.ap_eu_id = eeu.eu_id
and eap.ap_type = 'GP'
In my case
3001     1000
3002     1001
3003     1002
3004     1003
3005     1004
3006     1005
3015     1013
3016     1014
3017     1018
3018     1024
I research а corresponding between gp_app_id (second column) and real name of privilege and get the next list:
1000     Discoverer and Plus Privilege
1001     Create/Edit Query
1002     Item Drill
1003     Drill Out
1004     Grant Workbook
1005     Collect Query Statistics
1006     Administration Privilege
1007     Set Privilege
1008     Create/Edit Business Area
1009     Format Business Area
1010     Create/Edit Summaries
1012     Schedule Workbook
1013     Unknown
1014     Save Workbooks to Database
1015     Manage Scheduled Workbooks
1018     Unknown
1024     Create Link
So, the ID of privilege 'Save Workbooks to Database' is 1014. This privilege exists in table in spite of in Discoverer Administrator this option UNCHECK for user PUBLIC.
This is a REAL BUG!!!
Then I executed query
delete from eul5_access_privs where ap_id = 3016
and after that all became right.
Now please explain me this bug. And I have question - which privileges have IDs 1013 and 1018?
Thank you.

Messages from sender being overwritten by another in my inbox- why?

I am missing messages from senders because they are being overwritten by messages from another sender when they get to my inbox. The original sender is listed in the header as "From", but the rest of the info in the header is for the other sender. Both senders are expected (both are newsletters). This happens randomly and has been happening for a couple months. Any ideas on what is happening?
Update: This is continuing to happen as of today ( 19-Nov-2014). One message was downloaded and filtered to one of my local folders correctly, but then it also overwrote another message currently downloaded in my inbox, but left the Thunderbird inbox 'from' and 'subject' fields intact indicating the sender of the message that it overwrote in my inbox. But when I open it, I get the same newsletter that was filtered to the folder (in the same download batch) as the newsletter that opens in my inbox with the sender/subject of the other newsletter. This is very frustrating... I'm considering alternative to Thunderbird.

DB schema migration of Apps mode EUL

Hi,
we have a DEV environment with an APPS mode EUL (EUL4_US) that has been upgraded to 10.1.2 and has a custom business area with a lot of custom folders and workbooks. Discoverer desktop is currently the primary mechanism for creating and viewing reports. The DEV environment also had the 'The Discoverer V5 EUL' administration business area and workbooks installed fine.
We have tried to migrate this to a testing environment using the database level imp/exp procedures after generating all the business views on the test box along with compiling all customisations (functions/views etc.).
Since the migration, none of the non-SYSADMIN user owned workbooks appear and the admin business area didn't 'obviously' migrate across properly (even though the functions were registered ok).
We noticed on the target env that the Apps user that owned the workbooks on DEV did not exist on test. We created the user, but it made no difference.
We tried to import the admin eex file again in refresh mode but received errors such as:
Access is denied trying to modify the Folder with identifier 'EUL5_BATCH_QUERIES'
...even though we cannot see the businss area from admin edition when logged in with Business Views Setup responsibility.
Importing the eex file in 'rename' mode was semi-successful - the business area and workbooks imported, but the workbooks failed to open with missing item errors (which needed substituting).
Creating a query from scratch against the admin folder EUL5_WORKBOOK_MANAGEMENT shows all the 'missing' workbooks along with their owner.
What is happening? What can I do to address the issues? It looks like a security problem.
Cheers,
John

Further news.
I've sorted out the 'missing' business area. I needed to login as EUL4_US in database mode to grant the business area to the apps responsibilities. Not sure why the import didn't take care of that.
That just leaves the issue of missing workbooks. Running the standard Workbook Management report shows a weird issue:
All the workbooks are shown on the workbook access tab but the page item 'document created by' shows '***Undefined error 2***'.
Does the ownership get stored in the EUL tables as an id or as the username? Just wondering whether my Apps user has a different fnd user id between environments and that is causing the missing workbooks issues.

Issue accessing workbook from user menu.

Hi,
We are facing an issue in opening the workbook from the User menu.
Workbook is working fine if we open it directly from BEx Analyzer but its not opening the workbook report when we click it from the user menu link.
This issue started coming when we upgraded the microsoft excel from 2003 to 2007.
Any information related to it would be helpful.
Regards,
Neha Maheshwari

Neha,
We have had several issues similar running SAP BW 7.0 with BEx 3.5 workbooks after upgrading to Excel 2007. There are several SAP Notes concerning various Excel 2007 related errors. Most of these seem to be bundled in the just-released SAP BEx 3.5 Add-On Patch 7 for SAPGUI 710, so my advice would be to download this patch if you have not done so already.
Hope this helps...

BEx 7 Workbook Template Issue

Dear Gurus!
Has anybody experience with designing an excel master template in BEx 7?
I have designed a template on basis of a query, created a corporate theme, positioned the design items, inserted a logo etc. and saved the workbook on the BW server. When I have assigned this workbook as a global template. So far it works fine.
Now I have 2 problems:
1) If users run a query, but do not have authorization for the query the master template is based on, the data provider gets no query assignment hence the workbooks shows no result.
If I leave the data provider assignment blank or remove the data provider from the design items, it does not work neither.
2) How can I provide the corporate theme to the users that they can choose it without beeing able to change it? We have a lot of users which are creating local workbooks for special purposes.
The authorization object S_RS_TOOLS provides editing rights, hence is no solution for a reporting only user?
I hope you can help!
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Alex

Oh, I agree completely. I am still struggling with the same issue. I did put a query in the template to which all users have access, but the silly thing pops up a variable entry screen and then is somehow magically gone.
