Hi there,
I know SAP Advanced analysis for Excel can connect to BW data Sources like Queries which are OLAP sources.
But can it also connect to ORACLE/SQL Server data sources. Is there a work around to do connect to these sources from Analysis for Excel or Analysis for OLAP (Web version)?
Please advise.
Thank you

Hi,

Hi Experts,
Just would like if any of you would know a fix for this issue. One of our clients informed us that they were
getting this issue when running their workbook.
A warning message: Invalid selection for characteristics XXXXX
Details: Characteristics XXXXX has no master data for YYYYY or you do not have authorization
(com.sap.ip.bi.bics.dataaccess.consumer.impl.selector.selection.SingleMemberNoMasterdata)
However, the issue is not seen when we run the query in BEx Analyzer
The error in AO comes up when we apply a Filter Member to a certain dimension.
If we take out the Filter Member, issue is not present.
We are using version AO 1.4.12.3394
I saw a similar post but seems like I need to open a new discussion for it:

Thank you!
Kind Regards,

After reading through SCN there are undocumented commands to show/hide the task pane Analysis, Component and Information tabs. There does not appear to be a way to toggle the whole task pane off/on. What we would like to do is make the Task Pane visible by default and not requiring the user to go to the Analysis tab and select display in the design panel buttons each time the workbook is open. Is there are setting that can be applied or macro created? We are using AFO v1.4.8 and Excel 2010. Thanks for you help.
We have deployed BOAO 2.0 SP4 to a number of end-user PC's on top of Office 2013 and SAP GUI 7.3. Some users reported sporadic issue with Excel context (right-click) menu. It reduces to just few items (Copy/Cut/Paste) instead of full context menu which has over 10 items. We've had difficult time replicating exact sequence of steps that results in this behaviour, but we established that it relates to BOAO.
Here is what we're seeing:
- not all clients have the issue
- the issue occurs only when BOAO is loaded, after unloading BOAO Add-in issue no longer occurs
- the issue occurs in workbooks that don't contains any Analysis objects. Immediately switching to a workbook with Analysis crosstab, full Analysis context menu appears as expected.
- sometimes full context will appear after waiting for 15 seconds before right-clicking
Here is what we've tried w/o success:
- reinstalling BOAO
- copying C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\Excel15.xlb from PC where issue does not occur to to problem machine
Has anyone seen similar behaviour?
Hi All,
For the past 2 hours i have been struggling to figure out how hierarchy is working for one HANA view and the same hierarchy is not working with another view in Analysis for Office.
For Ex:- Hierarchy is working for Cost view in AFO but the same Hierarchy is not working for the sales view in AFO.
Current Working Environment:-
Analysis for Office :- 2.1 Version.
Connection Type :- HANA HTTP Connection.
HANA:- 1.0 SP9
I`m attaching the screen shot for the following Error.
Please advise accordingly.
Thanks and Regards

Hello Experts,
i have the problem that for datasources/crosstabs that contain values which never have decimal places still show decimals in the chart component of analysis. The values that i mean here are those that are displaed when you hover over for example one bar in a bar chart. This can however be fixed if you use the excel function to change the cell type to "text" but after refreshing the datasource this is overwritten again. Is there a possibilty to set this for the chart/crosstab/datasource fixed? So that it would never show decimals?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello,
I have a requirement which I am not sure how to implement and was wondering if I can get any help.
I have several queries in the same workbook that has some hidden key figures (can be shown) , sometimes similar.
My requirement is to build some kind of component where the user can select which key figures to show(can choose several at a time).
In analyser this can be done through a check box group. The user gets a list where he can select and then the check box group component can be associated with several dataproviders.
Since check box group component is a bex analyser component, is there an alternative way to do this is Analysis? I know this can be done from the display panel in analysis but I am not sure the end user will have access and the requirement is to have a list of check boxes and a submit button that will trigger the action of hidding/showing those key figures.
Do anybody have an idea how to do this in analysis?
Thanks.
Hi,
I am displaying a HANA view in AO.
When I open the view in AO, I only see the measures.
As soon as I drag and drop a dimension, I see message : "No Applicable data found".
Any idea?

Hi,
with analysis for office 1.4 I fixed the problem changing the windows registry, following posts like this one Size limit of result set exceeded+Analysis for Microsoft Office or this one Size Limit of Result Set Exceeded in SAP Business Objects Advanced Analysis for Office 1.2
But now with analysis for office 2.0 or 2.1 it doesn't work. I have tried with more than one pc but the problem is the same.
I'm using office 2013 x64 and also office 2013 32bits.
This is important because now I'm limited to a maximum of 60000 rows.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks a lot.
Hello everybody,
we have a strange behavior with one (maybee more) of our Queries.
When we run the Query the first time everything is fine. But when we want to open the prombt window we get the following error message and we have to close BO:
Invalid program status\: RFC call BICS_PROV_OPEN returned an exception: RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE: Error while parsing XML
The crazy thing is, when we make a copy of the Query, the new one works without any problems. Now you will say "use the new one" but this isn't so easy becaus the old Query with the error is used in a lot of workbooks.
Two weaks ago we had a release from BW 7.01 to 7.40 - since this moment we have this problem.
We use: BO 2.04.10601
Any idea how we can solve it?
Thank you very much..
Best regards.

Hi Experts
I created a characteristic without master data and text. Which is used for record comments during planning. I can write free text into this characteristic by BEx Analyzer. But I can't do this in AO. AO not allowed input a record which not exist in master data into characteristic.
I did searched a lot on SCN for work around this issue. Set Characteristic as Key Figure might solve my problem but I am using BW7.0. Which still not support this feature. Does anyone has any other solution on this?
Thanks
Hi Experts,
I would like to know if it is possible to use a filter keeping the table fixed. For example, if I change a Profit Center, I would like to see all my Business Structure, even if in some of them there have no values.
Fig. 1 - All Profit Centers Selected
Fig. 2 - Filtered by Profit Center "XXXX"
In this example, if i choose the Profit Center "XXXX" (Fig. 2) I want to see the same Business Structure I see without Filter (Fig. 1), but it only appears "Energy".
With this, if i'm planning, i can see which BS I did not fulfilled yet for one Profit Center. Also, if I want to use two or more crosstabs in the same sheet I would have no problems of overlapping.
For the Ovelapping problem, I've seen already a solution here in the SCN, but using VBA, which I would like to avoid at this moment.
Do you know if this is possible?
Thank you very much,
Best Regards,

Hi,
In analysis 2.0 SP2, I could open a new session in new window.
i.e. if I have an workbook opened. Then I can got to start menu-> Open analysis -> login using insert data source after giving proper credentials
But in analysis 2.0 SP4 , I am not able to follow the path or open a new instance by logging in separately
I have to do Ctrl+N to open a new window /session. Also ,it seems that I cannot open BEx analyzer BW7 workbook. Am not able to open two apps simultaneously.
Am I missing something or some configurations ?
Thanks,

Hi,
We are currently looking into using the BusinessObjects BI Launch pad as our repository for storing Analysis for Office workbooks but have picked up the following issues and would like to know if any of you have found any workarounds to these issues.
Workbook Linking
Our users make use of cell references between workbooks. These work fine on a file share but I have not seen a way to accommodate this if the workbooks are stored in the BI Launch Pad and are referencing each other. Any ideas?
Open Workbook through Browser
We could manage this issue with training our users to open a workbook only through Analysis for Office menu’s, but our users are used to using the BI Launch Pad and when you open a workbook through the browser it will open in excel (and we found a fix to ensure the Analysis tab is visible) but if you just select the save button it does not save back into the repository. Are there any plans to have tighter integration with BI Launch Pad ?
Thank you.

Hi All,
What is the function of refresh available in the context menu of BO analysis MS office edition tool? when I do that nothing happens.
I am expecting to see the report gets refreshed by calling the BEx query but nothing happens.
Is there a way to refresh the workbook without closing the workbook and reopening it or without using the prompt screen(some reports we dont have the prompt)? or is this a bug?
I am using BO Analysis version 1.3.2.2130
Thanks,
Anand
Hi Tammy and all,
We are wondering when exactly the Anaysis Office 2.2 will be available? We see everywhere Q4 2015, but is this november, december? Any date?
We heard that there will be improvements on the system message display in AO, which appears in a small box on the left bottom corner for only few seconds. We want to be able to show larger box to the user, to better inform them about data availability, etc. This is supposed to be better in AO 2.2
Thanks
Christian
