Hello Experts,

 

I want to consume HANA Hierarchy in BOBJ Reporting tools. I am unbale to find the Hierachy in Analysis Office 2.2 and 2.3 version.

 

Environment: SAP HANA  SP10, Revision 102.4 -> HANA Calculation View with Hierarchy

SAP Analysis Office Excel 2.2 SP03 or 2.3

 

Steps:

 

I have created a simple HANA Calculation view with a Hierarchy(parent child/level hierarchy). I am trying to consume this

 

HANA view with Hierarchy in BOBJ Reporting tools. I am able to see the Hierarchy in Excel MDX and Lumira Reporting tool .

 

However in Analysis Office, it is not showing. Even the Hierarchy button is also grayed out.

 

Note: i have checked the SAP analysis Office official user guide version 2.2 and version 2.3 , but there is no mention of

 

any such configuration steps. Please help.

 

 

Regards,

Anuj

Excel function value() not working for attribute value

Hi,

 

I'm trying to create a local formula in an added query column. It's supposed to multiply columns E and H.

 

Column E is a custom attribute of 0Material storing the price per litre.

 

The idea was to have a function like this:   =value(E2) * H2

 

Unfortunately Analysis doesn't like that and always returns 'NA'. Same result for just a simple 'value(E2)'.

Is it in general possible what I'd like to achieve or am I simply doing something wrong?

 

Thanks

Planning On Totals Not Working for Quantity Converted UoM?

June 7, 2016, 2:00 pm

Hello Experts,

 

We have an issue in which we are getting an error when we try to plan on totals rows that include a Key Figure which has quantity conversion to a new Unit of Measure.  The situation is as follows:

 

We have built a planning template (input-ready query) on a direct-update DSO to do price and rate planning.  Most of the Key Figures are set to no aggregation (NO2), with "Disaggregation Copy" set as the planning setting for planning on totals.  In order to enable planning across different converted currencies and units of measure, we have included additional key figures to store the conversion factors since you can not plan on a converted KF.  We then use calculated KFs and inverse formulas to allow users to plan in the desired currency and UoM, even though the actual plan data is being saved back in the original currency and UoM.  For the most part, everything is working perfectly as expected.

 

However, we have an issue specifically with the UoM conversion factor on Totals rows.  For certain material-specific UoM conversions, the conversion factors differ slightly per material, resulting in an 'X' displayed in the Totals row.  When we try to plan on the totals, it gives the message:  Element '{KF Name}' has internal value '0 (*)'. 

 

We have tried setting the local calculation behavior to "Average of Detailed Values That Are Not Zero, Null", which displays the correct value in the totals row but does not resolve the inverse calculation error.

 

Is there any setting or approach that can be used to push the totals value calculation to the planning engine so it will pick up the average (or desired results calculation) for use in the inverse formula?

 

Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions!

Key member with date change to real date

Hi All

 

First of all - sorry if this questions have been answeared before - I could not find the answear when I tryed to search the forum.

 

I use Excel 2010 with analysis 2.2.2

 

I have a column filled with dates, but unfortunately excel can't understand the cells as dates. So until now I have made a extra column with this solution:

=DATE(RIGHT(CELL;4);MID(CELL;4;2);LEFT(CELL;2))

so the key member value will go from 07.06.2016 to a datevalue Excel can handle.

 

But the problem is that when I update my Analysis report I will need to expand the column with the excel formula.

 

Is it possible to use the functionality in 2.2.2 to solve this in Advance calculation? or do you have a better solution than I use today.

 

Hope the question make sense

API Function SAPOpenWorkbook

June 14, 2016, 3:15 am

Hi,


I just want to explain the new Analysis Office function SAPOpenWorkbook. The original post was on my blog. I hope this little instructions help someone.


A new feature of Analysis Office 2.3 is a macro called SAPOpenWorkbook. Some of you maybe know the old sapbex.xla!SAPBExReadWorkbook or the BExAnalyzer.xla!runWorkbook command.

 

The user guide explanation for this macro is:

 

You can use this API method to open an Analysis workbook. The workbook that should be opened can be stored on a SAP NetWeaver server or on a BI platform.

The workbook is opened in the same Microsoft Excel instance. After the command execution, the opened workbook is active.


As you know the sapbex.xla!SAPBExReadWorkbook respectively BExAnalyzer.xla!runWorkbook command needed either an established connection from the addin or you created your own connection with the following code:

 

DimR32AsObject'Connection Object

SetR32 = CreateObject("SAP.Functions")

 

WithR32.Connection

 

    .system ="ABC"'system

    .client ="001"'client

    .user ="reyemsaibot"'user

    .Password ="4711"'password

    .Language ="EN"'language

    .systemnumber ="00"'systemnumber

    .hostname ="www.reyemsaibot.com"'hostname

 

EndWith

 

'Test Connection

IfR32.Connection.logon(0,True)<>TrueThen

ExitFunction

 

EndIf

 

In Analysis Office the macro SAPOpenWorkbook use the connection of an existing DataSource. So you can't define your own connection with a super user or something like that. Here is an example code:

 

SubOpenWorkbookViaAPI()

 

DimlresultAsLong

lresult = Application.Run("SAPOpenWorkbook","DEMO_5","DS_1","ZCOUNTRY_VAR_02","AT","0I_FPER","001.2011 - 004.2011")

 

EndSub

 

The name Demo_5 is the technical name of the workbook from a SAP NetWeaver server. If you want to use a document, which is stored on a BI Platform, you need the CUID.

 

The connection parameters will be used from the DataSource DS_1. This parameter is mandatory if you have several connections in a workbook. If you have only one connection, it is optional. The target workbook will be opened from the referenced connection of DS_1.

 

The variable parameter for ZCOUNTRY_VAR_02 is optional, but if you have a mandatory variable you have to assign a value, like the 0I_FPER variable.

 

If you want to refresh your workbook on opening, you have to set the parameter “Refresh Workbook on Opening”. You also need an established connection or you see the logon popup.

 

New is the feature that you can predefine your variable value for the new workbook. This is nice but it is still not the same as in BEx Analyzer, because you have to use the connection from a existing DataSource. I hope SAP will provide us more in the future.

Analysis for Excel: filter component has lower functionality then usual filter

June 14, 2016, 2:22 am

Hi,

I have a question about filter components in Analysis for Excel.

When I use filtering from navigation panel, there is a lot of useful things in filter dialog, such as search by part of name, selecting intervals and so on.

But when I make a filter component in the free area of my workbook, it has much lower functionality: no search, no intervals, only direct list of dimension values.

Is it a bug or a feature?

This filter component looks like inconvenient in case of more than 20 values in dimension.

Is there any way to make it "fully-functional"?

Versions: Analysis 2.2, BW 7.5, Excel 2010.

Thanks.

Problem with BW Workspaces in AAOE: local CompositeProvider not created

Hey guys,

 

I tried to create a local composite provider with BW Workspaces in Analysis for Office. I created a Multiprovider on a cube and build a query with two dimensions in the rows. In the next step I uploaded a flatfile with the same two dimensions into my BW Workspace. This workspace has the Multiprovider as its central provider.

After successfully uploading the local provider I dropped the query in Analysis for Office and tried to add the local provider as new dimensions.

Then an error message pops up: " Data comparision is not possible because CompositeProvider is inconsistent" - "Error during Adding of data".

 

System: SAP BW on HANA 7.4 SP12

Analysis for Excel Version: 2.2.1.53549

 

In the BW Workspaces Web Client it is no problem to create the local composite provider with the same datasources as mentioned before. This error just appears in Analysis for Excel.

 

Any suggestions?

Starting new proyect - Live or Analysis for Office

Hello people,

 

We have a requirement from our users to implement a SAP BI solution that able them to import / paste charts or tables (with data that should come from our HANA DWH) in their PowerPoints or Words documents.

 

Our first idea was to use Analysis for Office because is the last SAP application and the one with more future, but we don't know a couple of things, maybe you can help us:

 

- It is possible with Analysis to the developer team to create predefined charts or tables (revenue for each country for example) and save or export them to a repository or BO folder so, when business users write their reports they could import the charts directly without having to create it themselves.

 

- It is possible to integrate in one analysis or chart Data from different HANA Views? Like in Lumira when in the Preparation sheet you can add information throught Joins

 

 

Greetings and thank you all!

Hello Everyone,

 

I have a problem with Excel 2016 ( 64 bit) and SAP Analysis 2.2. Just recently we installed both and they are operating on Windows 7 enterprise platform. Every time when Analysis 2.2 is enabled and I close a file in excel, it crashes. To avoid that, I disable the add in and then close. Is there a solution to this? Is it related to a security patch or EMET file?

Please let us know if there is a solution to this?

Error: SAP BI Add-in has disconnected all data sources (ID-111007) with nested error: Invalid request list of objects

Hi.


We are using Analysis for Office 1.4 (versions from 1.4.12 to 1.4.14) for 32-bit Excel 2013.
And we are getting error SAP BI Add-in has disconnected all data sources (ID-111007) with Nested error: Invalid request list of objects.

 

Datasources for workbook are BEx queries on BI 7.4. The workbook is saved on BW side.


The error occurs when user opens input-enabled workbook that has been previously opened (and thus blocked) by another user.
First when user opens workbook and enter variable filter values on prompt screen, the workbook get executed without error (with warning that infoprovider data is blocked by another user). But when user tries to reenter variable filter values on prompt screen he gets the described error after he pushes OK button on prompt screen.

 

The error occurs not in all workbooks, but only in few of them.

 

We've tried to resave and to recreate workbook. The problem still in its place.

We've also tried to resave BEx queries. The problem still in its place.

 

The most likely problem I've found is the problem with filters on navigational attributes in thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/3705961. But it is not our case. We have nav attributes in query filters with constant restrictions. We also have nav attributes in rows of queries, and transactional data is setting for values there.

 

Is something wrong with some of BEx queries in workbook? Maybe some another problems with nav attributes restrictions?

Or maybe it is the problem with hierarchy variable restrictions in query filter?
Or is it a workbook problem?

 

Any suggestion would be much appreciated.

 

Thank you.
Danila.

Hi all!

 

Based in the experience of anyone who work with analysis, and in terms of quatity and quality of errors.... which version do you recommend?

 

The lastest version is the best?

 

I read the note 1466118, in terms of PC requirements, is there always a direct relationship between capacity and lastest version?

 

My scenario includes many users with differents versions and i want to converge into a unique version, but we have  differents pc capacity...

Hi All,

 

You want to insert a new line on planning, creating members on characteristics without master data and you receive an error message even if you applied the SAP note 2132510.

 

In additional, you will need to apply the SAP note 2209808 that contains a correction on BICs engine.

Compatibility Issue from 64bits to 32bits

Hi,

 

I recently installed the SAP BO Analysis 2.2.2.55076 version (64bits) on my laptop having Microsoft Office 365 64bits. I was first in MO 365 32bits and generated a lot of reports with BO 1.4. I can open these reports, refresh the data without any issue.

 

The issue appears when I share my Excel files containing my BO reports to other users having version 1.4 on 32 bits version. The users cannot refresh the data and the crosstab does not appears in the components tab.

 

When any users send me a report created on version 1.4 32bits I can open the file, refresh the data without any issues, but once I save this file and send back to the user that created that report, then the same issue appears, the crosstab disappears and no way for them to refresh the data.

 

This issue was also present for me on BO 1.4 64 bits version before I upgraded to my actual 2.2 version, so I really don't know if it's a product limitation or it's an issue on my setup.

 

I attach 3 screenshots, one containing my BO version, another containing the Components tabs from my laptop, and last one containing the Components tab when any other user open my file.

 

Can anybody help me or guide me on this?

 

Thanks in advance for your support.
