AO Reports consuming Bex Reports

Hello Everyone,

We are consuming Bex Queries and building AO Workbooks.

For consuming the bex queries in AO, do we need to enable the setting -  " allow external access to the query "?

Because i use to enable this setting for webi/AOLAP for web version.

So want to know, do i need to do enable the setting for Analysis for Office Version also.

Thanks  in advance.

Regards,

John
