Filter on Measures

Filter by member on measures is disappearing as soon as I refresh prompts for data source. Is this expected behavior?

This does not happen when I apply filter by member on Dimension. I am using analysis for office 1.4 SP 12.

 

Thanks,


Best Practice for caching AAO Analysis Views?

$
0
0

Morning all -

 

I was wondering if there is a document that exists which explains the best practices for caching the underlying BEx where an Analysis View sits?

 

We are on BW 7.4 and my cache mode is set to D which seems to be recommended option for performance. We do not use Hana.

 

I have heard about people setting up a process chain to cache certain objects. Any thoughts?

 

 

 

 

Thanks for your time!

Question on Analysis Office 2.2 SP0

Hi,

 

While working on BPC 10.1 Embedded, we are using Analysis Office 2.2 SP0 for reporting/Input form.

 

I have created an input query on Aggregation Level and have checked below points:

a. Change mode option checked for query in query designer.

b. Input Enabled KFs inclded (KFs checked "Input allowed" option).

c. Change Mode checked in Analysis Office and query goes to change mode without any issue.

d. "Planning: Open datasource input enabled" option checked.

 

Even after completing these checkpoints, planning specific options such as "Save", "Recalculate" etc. are disabled once data is entered for the input enabled KFs.

 

Please let me know there any checkpoints need to be addressed.

 

Regards,

Raghu

Known issue in AO related to Input Help (aka F4 Help)

$

Hi everyone,

 

I have seen many incidents sent to SAP related to an issue in Analysis for Office when using Input Help (AKA F4 Help), in BW 740 systems.

 

The scenario is the following:

 

  1. Click on the Input Help:
    step1.png
  2. All values are shown on the list. Select any value and click on OK (in this case I am selecting "Not Assigned"):
    step2.png
  3. The value will be entered on the input:
    step3.png
  4. Click on the Input Help again and it will show only the value selected on step #2:
    step4.png

This issue is fixed after implementing SAP note below on the BW system:

2107060 - RSBOLAP: Correction for SAP Note 2065089 (reader reset)

 

I also strongly recommend that you check the SCN post below which contains many SAP notes related to BICS (communication interface used by Analysis for Office) depending on the Support Package of your BW 740:

 

Very Important BICS notes for BW 740

 

Kind regards,

AO2.1 - RRI to ECC transaction (SAP Gui vs Web)

$
0
0

In our current BEx Analyzer setup we have some RRI jumps configured in RSBBS to ECC transactions. In the settings of BEx Analyzer we make sure the ''Log on and activate SAP GUI connection" flag is set, so that the transaction is started through the SAP Logon (and not via a web interface if this flag is NOT set).

 

We're ramping up the roll-out of AO2.1, but i find no such flag in the AO client, and as expected the RRI jump triggers the web page version of the ECC transaction, while we still would like to start the SAP Logon view

 

Anybody know any solution for this?

Hello,

 

I was putting together a new desktop build for the client PC’s, and has come across an issue with AO for office 2.2 This is on Windows 10 / office 2013. When launching the analysis for office in excel, the SAP BO Launchpad is not reading in the xml configuration file , both Admin and roaming versions, to allow the end user to select the BO system (sapbop), instead it shows a standard formatted “template” url. I have had a good look around the SAP sites, and cannot see anyone with the same or similar issues (KBA/Notes / SCN etc). Can you help?


Thanks,

How to hide display of Characteristic Attributes in Analysis Workbook

$
0
0

Dear Gurus,

I wonder if anyone knows the solution to below situation as it would greatly benefit us.

 

We have an Excel Analysis Workbook. In the Display Panel, user can see all the Characteristics of BEx Query (this is ok as expected) and if a Characteristic has some attributes defined, then all those attributes are shown to the users by default (here, we have an issue). We do not want the Users to see those Attributes. The requirement is to show only basic Characteristics to the Users.

 

Does anyone know if we can control or restrict display of Attributes in Analysis Workbook? And if yes, then how?

We would prefer to avoid the seriously long route of making attributes as Authorization Relevant and all the associated overhead, if possible.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello

 

I have installed AO 2.1.3.52433

I logged on to my development BI platform, I set SSO did a test all working fine.

 

When I now open AO I can insert a data source and it immediately shows my available connection from the DEV BI platform (no more logon screen, as I have set windows AD SSO checkbox on).

 

Perfect....

 

But now I want to have a connection to my PRD BI Platform.  As I no longer get the logon screen how to I do this?

 

My preferred platform is set to selectable.

I don't find a way to get back the logon screen...

 

I will dig into the settings files to find a way, but this should be possible from GUI or not?

Callback_Afterdisplay Subroutine to display Plan Data

$

I have implemented below code for below.

 

  • - Open Workbook in Display Mode .
  • - Workbook_SAP_Iniitalize registers Call back for After Display
  • - Callback_Afterdisplay Subroutine to display Plan Data. The reason for this is to make sure that the data is displayed in Display mode after the prompt screen is executed.

 

The workbook opens up in display mode, which works well. However this doesn’t work the way I expected.

 

Please see the steps followed below.

 

  • - Open the workbook (it open in display mode),
  • - Go into change mode (open in change mode as expected)
  • - Change the Prompt

 

After entering the prompt, I expected this to open in display mode (because of the code) but it doesn’t . Please can someone point out what’s wrong here.

 

Public Sub Workbook_SAP_Initialize()

 

Dim lResult As Long

   

' Register Callbacks

 

    Call Application.Run("SAPExecuteCommand", "RegisterCallback", "AfterRedisplay", "Callback_AfterRedisplay")

    Call Application.Run("SAPExecuteCommand", "RegisterCallback", "BeforePlanDataSave", "Callback_BeforePlanDataSave")

'    Call Application.Run("SAPExecuteCommand", "RegisterCallback", "BeforePlanDataReset", "Callback_BeforePlanDataReset")

   

' Set Queries to Display Mode

   

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

   

    lResult = Application.Run("SAPExecuteCommand", "Refresh")

    lResult = Application.Run("SAPExecuteCommand", "PlanDataToDisplayMode")

'   lResult = Application.Run("SAPExecutePlanningSequence", "PS_XX")

 

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

   

End Sub

 

 

Public Sub Callback_AfterRedisplay()

 

 

    lResult2 = Application.Run("SAPGetProperty", "IsDataSourceEditable", "DS_1")

   

        If lResult2 = True Then

       

                lResult = Application.Run("SAPExecuteCommand", "PlanDataToDisplayMode")

               

        End If

Hello experts,

 

I have a Workbook with a button to save data. The macro associated to this button first runs a planning sequence and then the SaveData.

 

Can you please tell me if it is possible to run the SaveData only if the Planning Sequence runs OK?

 

How can I do that?

 

Many thanks.

View Filter Information without Connecting

$

We are making some significant changes to the way our users connect to analysis which mean that they wont be able to connect to the existing datasources, as a consequencs they wont be able to refresh any existing reports. Is there any way to see the filter information for an existing report without being able to connect to the datasource?

 

If we can extract this then the user can rebuild any reports.

 

Thanks

Analysis Office 2.2 excel formula

Hi, all

 

I'm trying to create a simple workbook with "excel formula" new feature of AO 2.2.

It works pretty great except one thing. If I use KEY+TEXT displaying for my characteristic in rows, I can't create the same for new inserted row with formula. The thing is I can only put some description to KEY cell. When trying to put some text to the 2nd descr cell the systems automatically move this text to KEY cell.

01.png

I need it like this:

02.png

 

Has anyone idea how to use both field KEY+TEXT for additional calculated row?

 

Thanks in advance.

AO Format: To add Percentage(%) into Format.

$

0

Hello All -

 

I would kindly like to ask about format in AO. I am working on AO 2.2 SP 1 & BW 7.4 SP 12 for BPC Embedded Planning.

 

I have input report below : Account(Characteristic), Multiplier(Key Figure), and Amount(Key Figure)

AccountMultiplierAmount
600010150%10000
600010270%20000

 

There is requirement from user if in the column multiplier, the figure has % (percentage). I tried to create new format but apparently the new format is for all data key figures (Multiplier, and Amount). It cannot go only for column Multiplier.

and

I tried to use excel format, and apply percentage format there; but when I refresh the data the format will go back to original.

 

The questions are

1) Is it possible to have percentage format AO ?

2) If it is possible, could you please advise how I have this format?

 

Could I please ask your thought, and appreciate much.

 

Cheers,

 

Many thanks,
Daniel N.

BW-IP:free text can enter by Analyzer but can't do it in Analysis Office

$

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
