Workbook Query Description

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to add to 2 queries to a workbook. (BI 7.0)
I run the report in analyzer and saved it as workbook.
I inserted a new sheet and in the design mode added the 2nd query to the workbook with the help of analysis grid.
Both the reports work fine, But I get the report description only for the first inserted report.
For the 2nd one I only get a table of report value with no query header.
Please let me know what options I need check for this
Thanks

1. Open your workbook. Go to Tools -> Macro -> Visual Basic Editor
2.In the Project Explorer Window Choose DefaultWorkbook Module and insert the below Code at the end of CallBack Sub Function
    Cells.Find(What:="Total", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
        :=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
        False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
    Selection.Font.Bold = True
    With Selection.Interior
        .Pattern = xlSolid
        .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic
        .ThemeColor = xlThemeColorDark1
        .TintAndShade = -0.349986266670736
        .PatternTintAndShade = 0
    End With
Hope this suits your requirement.
Note: Change the part "Total" in the code, whatever is the heading of the line you need to do this formatting.

  • Bi7 Variable screen, need to show query description

    hi
    i upgraded workbooks from bw 3.5 to BI 7
    workbook contains 5 queries in 5 different worksheets
    now when i refresh the  query, the variable screen shows like this
    dp_1 ztst_1
    dp_2 ztst_2
    dp_3 ztst_3
    ,,,,,,,,,               etc.,
    dp_1,2,3 are for dataprovider 1,2,3
    ztst_1,2,3 are queries technical name.
    i dont want this
    for all users i want them to see QUERY DESCRIPTION next to dp_1,2,3
    there is no way i can rename dp_1,2,3 if i upgrade a workbook
    HOW TO DO THIS?

    not a good solution, i already tried it.....
    you have to do it for all queries
    At first u still see the Technical name only......
    if you refresh the query again or change variable, then u notice the difference.
    close the workbook or close the query this setting is change
    now you reopen the query and workbook, same process to follow
    what i need?
    A SETTING THAT BY DEFAULT DISPLAYS QUERYS DESCRIPTION ALWAYS IN VARIABLE SCREEN FOR EVERY QUERY/WORKBOOK.
    is it possible ?

  • Query Description not displaying in Bex Template

    Hi all,
    I have created a Template in Bex Analyser in the Design mode of a Workbook.  I have assigned this workbook template as the Default Template for all the Queries by selecting it in Global Settings.  I closed this workbook template and opened a query.  I am getting the template embedded in the query as i designed but the problem is the Query Description is not displaying correctly.  In the Query, it is showing the Workbook Description in the header instead of Query Description.
    Where should i change it?  Help me in fixing this.  Thanks.

    Hi,
    you should use an Info Field WebItem to display the query name or description in your Webtemplate.
    Parameter in InfoField: General Text Elements for a Data Provider (GENERIC_TEXT_ELEMENT).
    You use this parameter to choose the generic text element that is to be displayed:
    ●      Query Name (QUERY)
    ●      Query Description (QUERY_DESCRIPTION)

  • Error while executing the workbook query.

    Hi guyz
    i'm getting an error while executing the workbook Query. The actual problem is there is a filter for REQUID in the query definition for removing the doble count. there is customer exit written. the report works fine in DEVELOPMENT but it is not working in quality.
    The query on which this workbook is created is working fine, but the problem is when we execute the workbook i'm facing this issue.
    we re-transported the queries but still we are facing the same problem.
    while we execute the query we are prompted for variable entry(Optional) for date. when we press OK we get the below error
    " NO SID value found for the value REQU_4DQT75Y2RJPVT4PXZ4LHC70V3 of characteristic"
    the request is not available in the BW system. the request was deleted long back, but it is still referring to the same the request id
    could someone please tell me where we went wrong and why we are getting this error.
    Regards,
    Anil Vadde

    Hey ,I think data load to your target on which the query was based had some issue.
    Can you check the data load to the data target.change the status of request concerned to red and delete.do reconstruct if neeed..I think the request had some issue.
    Even you can go to RSRQ or RSMO and filter on the basis of this request and see its status.

  • Display Query Description in Header in PDF Print

    Hi all,
           When using PDF Print option I would like to print the Query Description in the Header. From the dialog box I only see options for Data, Time, Pages and custom text. Can you please let me know how can I print the Query Description in the Header while using PDF Print.
    Thank you,
    Ram

    Yes I understand but that is not what I mean.
    1. I have assigned a document to a certain query element in the BW metadata repository. This document contains a short report description and the purpose with it.
    2. Now I want to display this information within a "information field" under the information tab when running a report.
    Is it possible to display this information with a standard sap text element web item?

  • Text valriable in Query Description is not working in Bex Broadcaster

    Hello Experts,
    I am using Bex broadcaster setting to displaying Query Description through text variable availabe as <OBJECT_DESCRIPTION> in subject of boradcasted mail.
    In Query Description I have used text variable at the end to display previous month/year i.e "Report &ZPREV&" .
    Text variable with description is working fine in RSRT/ Analyzer, I am able to see description as "Report 201012" but the same description displays "Report &ZPREV&" in the subject line of broadcasted mail i.e. text variable is not getting assigned with desired value and technical name appears.
    Thanks,

    this problem may arise due to non-assignment of text variable to the any of the characteristics you using the  year so, REFER THE TEXT VARIABLE TO THE FISCAL YEAR . WHICH IS IN  TIME CHARACTERISTICS.
    HAVE YOU CREATED ANY OFFSET VARIABLE,  CREATE A VARIABLE FOR THE FISCAL YEAR  AND CREATE OFFSET TO THE VARIABLE AS -1 THEN  YEAR  WILL YEAR-1   ,   THE TEXT VARIABLE YOU CREATED WILL REFER TO THE FISCAL YEAR SO THE  PREVIOUS YEAR VALUE OF THE TEXT VARIABLE WILL THE YEAR = YEAR - 1.

  • Initial execution of a workbook/query runs without ending

    Hi, Experts,
    I encountered a very strange behavior of Bex tool. Sometimes, Initial execution of a workbook/query runs without ending at u2018Waiting for reply from BW Serveru2019 state, then I cancel the report and run it again and it would return results within minutes. Itu2019s like it forgot to return results.
    The basis team looked at the queries in the database, and said that there were actually a number of different queries being executed by my Bex query, but each individual query runs fairly quickly. The basis person pulled the statements out and ran them directly against the database and they returned result in sub seconds.
    Any thoughts? Possible solution?
    Thanks

  • Discoverer EUL Workbooks - Query Statistics, Workbooks Queried By User

    Hi there.
    I've just ran Discoverer EUL workbooks and found out a nice functionality on one of those queries. It's on EUL Query Statistics workbook, "Workbooks Queried By User" worksheet (and others).
    If you take a look at the "Worksheet Usage" column, you'll notice that there's an effect that looks a lot like a "progress bar". According to the times that worksheet was used, this bar advances or retract.
    I noticed it's a calculated column, but when I try to edit it, it shows no more than COUNT_DISTINCT("Date & Sheet"). I got a little confused on how this COUNT_DISTINCT shows that "progress bar"....
    So... how can I implement this on my DM queries?
    TIA.

    You need Desktop. When you format the data, there is a check box to show graphical bars. This option is not available in Plus, but the bars will show up when the report is displayed in Plus.

  • Length Of Query Description

    Can Any One Suggest Me How To Maximize Query Description Length
    i.e More than 120 Char .
    Regards
    Supraja.K

    Hello,
    Thanks Rohan.
    I checked the table and it contains the field called TXTLG which is Char 60. You need to modify this table and make the length of as many char as you want, save and activate. I am not sure, if you need to perform this activity in directly into production or you can transport the table.
    It may give you error while you change the data type of the field as table may contain data. If you get such error, I dont see any other solution, because it is practically impossible to empty this table.

  • Query description display

    When executing queries directly to the Explorer browser, the Explorer tab shows the query's technical name, not its description. 
    Where is the customising setting that enables it to show the query description?

    Hi Tinkugeo,
    I tried with the following code and it is working for me :
    DATA: loc_var_range LIKE rrrangeexit.
    DATA:  l_s_range     TYPE rsr_s_rangesid.
    Data: NEWDATE type sy-datum.
    IF i_vnam EQ <variable name> 
    if i_step EQ 2.
    CLEAR l_s_range.
    NEWDATE = sy-datum.
    month = NEWDATE+4(2).
    year = NEWDATE+0(4).
    day = NEWDATE+6(2).
    l_s_range-low+0(2) = day.
    l_s_range-low+2(1) = '/'.
    l_s_range-low+3(2) = month.
    l_s_range-low+5(1) ='/'.
    l_s_range-low+6(4) = year.
    APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
    endif.
    Check that the variable you have made is of type customer exit.

  • Question of workbook/query/variable deletions

    Hello,
    Needed opinion from the gurus on how deletion of front end objects is handled.
    For example, we have migrated workbooks(including query elements, variables etc) to quality. Some of them need to be deleted and no longer are required in production.
    Can we delete those objects in development and would it create a request similar to how backend obkjects are deleted? So that when the transport is sent out, it would delete the objects in the target systems.
    Or do we manually/programatically delete those objects in the development and in target systems?
    Thanks in advance for your thoughts
    Regards
    Prakash

    Hello,
    Thanks for your input.
    Does the front end deletion get recorded the same way as backend?
    For example, if I delete a query from RSZDELETE. I am not prompted for a transport or a request.

  • How to change Query Description/Technical name of a query

    <i><b>Hi</b></i> I have couple of questions with Query name changing.
    <b>1)Is it possible to change the Technical name of a query?
    If Yes how?
    2)I could change the description of a query but when the same query is saved in a role how to change its description?</b>
    <i><b>Thanks
    Ajay</b></i>

    hi,
    open your query in query designer and use button 'save as' then you can change name description.
    Remember that when you change technical name it will be completely new query and you will have to add it to your role.
