Prompts in Analysis for Excel on HANA via BICS?
Is this a limitation of our setup? The documentation on Analysis for Excel all references prompts as being variables in a BEx query. That's great, but what if you don't have a BEx query as your data source and you still want to prompt users to enter a date range when opening a workbook? I've attempted to use Input Parameters in the HANA view, but nothing seems to happen.
Anyone know of any workarounds that might work?
Thanks!

Variable Prompt for planning functions
Hello experts,
I wonder how to call the prompt for planning function's variables.
For instance, I have a Distribution by Key planning function with distribution keys as mandatory variables.
If I call the planning function in WebApllicationDesigner a prompt for variable inputs is displayed.
How to achieve the same behavior in Analysis?
Kind regards,

Scheduling Analysis for Office.. not able to get to instances
Hi all
We're using SAP BO 4.1 SP2 and Analysis for MS Office 1.4 and ANALYSIS OFFICE BIP ADD ON 1.4 SP6.
We can schedule Analysis Workbooks without problems, but do not have any possibility to access the instances. Not like with CR or WebI where you have the History Option in context menu..
We intended to use Analyis BOP AddOn to instantiate Workbooks and make them available for users not having Analyisis installed.
Would appreciate any help!

Disaggregation of the value 0
Dear all,
as you can see in the title, I am facing a problem regarding the disaggregation of the value 0. When I am in BOA and I enter "0" for net sales the average selling price won't change automatically to 0 as well, after the recalculation (I fixed the quantity; ASP = Net Sales / Net Quantity). Especially when I drag new characteristics into the columns, the value is not applied to 0, but still kept in its original form.
Does this refer to any settings within my query? Or do you have any other idea?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards

Analysis for Office against data on HANA?
Does anyone use Analysis for Office against data on HANA? I am running into some problems with creating Calcuations in Analysis when we have hierarchies in the calculation view. Also I am not able to see the measures in the folders that were created in HANA.

Connection to BW via BusinessObjects Platform
Hi guys,
We want our users to log onto BW via the BO platform. At the moment I can pull a BW user through into our BO system and they can log onto Analysis by selecting BO platform using SAP Authentication. The next step is that they need to log onto BW. We don't have SSO set up so again they use their BW userID and password.
What are the options open to us for allowing our users to log onto BW? By that I mean which of the connection options can we use? Currently I only see a list of systems when I select 'Local System' and it pulls thought the systems from my .ini file and I can connect ok to any system regardless of which BO system I connected to.
Can/should I be able to see a list of Systems that we want to give our users access to from the 'System' option from the conenctions pull-down?
I can't find any documentation that details how I go about doing this, if it's at all possible. I assume I do some security in the BO CMC?
I hope the above makes sense? Regards and thanks in advance,
Stephen

Single Sign on to Query Designer from Analysis
The Launch Query Designer link is active on the Excel ribbon but a SAP log in screen opens up forcing a second log in when you click on the link. I am able to access the query and load it into Analysis so I don't understand why that connection information is not passed along when I try to open Query Designer from the link under Tools section of the ribbon. Has anyone found a way to have single sign on? We are running version 1.4.2.2625 of Analysis. Thanks in advance.

Connecting AAO to HANA
Hi Folks,
Quick question - probably an easy one. I'm wanting to play around with AAO (usually I work in HANA) and am not clear on how to connect to HANA.
In one version of AAO in on system, after clicking "Insert Data Source", shows three folders: Connections, Favorites and HANA. This version of AAO just seems to be called "Analysis for Office". I can connect to a HANA system fine with this version.
However, in another system, I have a laptop with "Advanced Analysis for Office" pre-installed. When I similarly try to insert a new data source, all I see are SAP connections - no options to connect to HANA.
Any ideas? Also, what's the difference between "Analysis" and "Advanced Analysis" for Office?
Thanks,
Jody

Organizing fields in AAO
Hi Folks,
I'm wondering if there's any way to visually organize dimensions (well, fields in general) in AAO in a meaningfully way? In WebI, for example, folders can be created for organizing Store-related dimensions, Product-related dimensions, etc.
I've been poking around the web and the documentation but haven't found anything useful so far.
Thanks!

What would limit the number of rows retreived for a BO report?
I created the universe - with no limits that I know of.
When I or my user runs a BO report on the universe, the result set is limited to 5000 and the report then sorts only the first 5000 rows for display.
I changed the script to also sort by the Group by columns and then I could tell that it was not truly retrieving all rows prior to adding the sort.
My user has been useing the export to excel inorder for comparing data in the current process to the data in the universe. We expect 18000 rows.
What could I have done? Nothing on purpose

Restrict list of displayed hana models
Hi,
We are planning to use AAO for adhoc reporting. I would like to restrict the list of hana models displayed based on the package permission of the logged in user. Currently when a user logs in, the following query is triggered to HANA which gives the list of all existing cubes when the "Folder" tab is selected:
SELECT "CUBE_NAME", "DESCRIPTION", "CATALOG_NAME" from "_SYS_BI"."BIMC_CUBES" ORDER BY "CATALOG_NAME" ASC .
Is there a way to restrict this folder list?
Thanks

Syntax for entering values "contains pattern"
Hi,
Reading the SAP BusinessObjects Analysis, edition for Microsoft Office User's Guide on page 82/83 I can see that user can filter values user "contains pattern" with an extra-information "*You can not use these syntax rules for filtering."
We can filter datas with pattern into SAP BW, so users want to have same functionnality with AfOffice (and they don't understand why we can do this before and not in the nex BI tool whereas it's included in User Guide).
Does it exist a workaround or any information about a release of this capability ?
Environment : Analysis for Office 1.4.2
Thanks for your support,

Differences between Analysis View & Workbook functionality.
I tried searching through SAP documentation for my inquiry but haven't found anything concrete. What are the main differences between Analysis View and Workbook within Advanced Analysis for Excel?
I know an Analysis View is made from a BEx and a Workbook is a saved instance from an Analysis View. I am just trying to understand the key differences so I can make the appropiate security changes within our model.
Are there significant functionality Pros and Cons outside the fact that Analysis View comes first before the Workbook in terms of creation.
Is there an advantage in an end-user being able to save an Analysis View in their My Favorites or only allowing he/she to save Workbooks in their My Favorites?
Thanks!
