Display of Measure Format in Thousands as “K” in BO Analysis OLAP report

Hi All,

 

Some of our BO Analysis OLAP reports showing measure values in thousands as ‘K’ (Example:- 37851393.31 as 37,851 K). We can change format’s in “Display > Measure Format” option, but users don't want to use that. Where can we fix this issue?

Can we fix it in BO Analysis report level? Or we need to fix it at BW / BOBJ server level?

 

Display of Measure Format in Thousands as - K.JPG

 

We are using following versions of software’s.

 

ANALYSIS 1.4 SP 02

BOBJ 4.0 SPS 6 PATCH 2

BW 7.01 SPS 5

 

It will be helpful if anyone can share your thoughts on this issue.

 

Thanks in Advance,

In a presentation at his year's ASUG, there was a slide "Simplification of BI Client Portfolio".  The slide showed Predictive Analysis, Lumira Desktop, Set Analysis, Lumira Cloud/Server, Explorer, Analysis OLAP merging into Lumira.  Can you provider further explanation of how this impacts the Analysis OLAP product.

How to make statistics on Analysis runtime ?

$
0
0

Hello Experts,

 

I need to make statistics on Analysis for Olap execution but I only have the "view" figures in the audit universe (+1 each time the report is opened).

For WEBI, I have the views and the refresh figures (refresh corresponding to the execution time).

 

 

I also tried in SAP BW Statistics because we are using SAP BO on top of SAP BW. But I am surprised to see that the query runtime corresponding to analysis execution is not in the statistics as well. (for WEBI, we have the bex query runtime...).

 

Do you know any way (or settings) that will allow me to have the statistics on Analysis runtime ?

 

Thanks for your help.

Row Calculation (Navigation Ragged Dimension)

$

Hello,

I have a row calculation/navigation question with the Olap Analysis product in 4.1 compare to 3.1.  Currently we are in BOE3.1 but want to go BI4.1.

We use SSAS 2008 as the main source for OLAP.  In 3.1 when we don't want to see a member (in this case central), we de-select it from

the members list, the total remain the same.  In 4.1 we cannot do that anymore.  If we de-select central from the members list,

the total re-calculate as depicted by the example below.  Basically the row column become a filter. Is there a option for this so the data doesn't recalculate.  We want the same behavior as 3.1

 

On a related note. The navigation on the slice and dice in analysis is more cumbersome in 4.1, you always have to go the the layout

to change filter.  Is there a way to make it more similar to 3.1. Less clicking

Unable to update the parameters in the analysis View.

$
0
0

Hi Everyone,

 

I am getting one weird issue in the Analysis View. I created a basic Analysis view based on SAP BW Query, the query have already three prompts.

1) year 2) Period 3) Currency.

 

I gave the parameter values as 2014, 2, 'Dollar' then get the values in the Analysis view based on them.

 

My end user wants that he would see the currency in 'Pounds', So i gave third prompt values as 'Pound' then get Analysis view data in pounds.

 

I saved the Analysis view with different name as "test". I reopen the "test" analysis view from launchpad then it shows the parameters. In the parameter list when i gave the currency as 'Pound', however it displays 'Dollar' Data for first time. Once again i refresh and gave the parameter as 'Pound' then it shows the data in 'Pounds'.

 

So my issue is when i open the saved Analysis view and give the parameter, those parameters are not effected in that View.

 

 

Can some please help me about this issue.

Time-dependent BW hierarchies in Analysis for OLAP

$
0
0

Hi all,

 

We are using time-dependent hierarchies in combination with a key date variable.

 

Tools used: Query designer based on SAP BW 7.4 and BO 4.0.

 

The following steps are executed:

  1. Report is executed and key date is prompted
  2. According to the key date, the correct time-dependent organisation hierarchy will be used in drill-down
  3. Bring up variable screen again and select different key date
  4. The drill-down changes according to the now correct time-dependent organisation hierarchy

 

The above scenario works for BEx Analyzer, BEx Web, Analysis for Office - but not for Analysis for OLAP.

 

Whenever I run through this scenario and confirm the updated key date, the following error is displayed:

cube.get.dimension.info.runtime.error : java.lang.IllegalStateException: There is no default hierarchy for dimension [ORG].

In the user guide I don't find any specifics about the hierarchies and since it works in all the other applications, I wonder where the error is coming from. I also could not find it anywhere else in the forum.

 

Has anyone experienced the same error or any suggestions?


Analysis - HANA Connection - IDT

$

HI,

 

I want to make a table in HANA available in BO Analysis for OLAP. I have created a Connection with New JDBC connection in the IDT (information design tool) and published the original relational & the secured connection created to the the BO server. (The connection test in IDT was a success).

 

If I check the connection in CMC, I am able to see the connections. But when I login to launchpad and open up Analysis for OLAP, none of the HANA connections are visible. (I am logging in with Admin/Full access).

 

Is there any additional publish activity to be done or is this a limitation of OLAP Analysi?

 

Thanks & Regards,

Hi 

 

The new feature in BO 4.1  SP2  Analysis Edition for OLAP ,  when you export to excel and new extra sheet become with the excel;

looking in SAP BusinessObjects Analysis, edition for OLAP User Guide  it says this

"

19.1 Exporting data to excel

 

For each analysis that has prompt values associated with it, a separate sheet is added to the Excel

workbook to display the prompt values."

 

 

I look in aplication and Adatative Process Server, in User Profile , in WorkSpace , in order to avoid to export the extra sheet but there is nothing about.

 

It´s possible to avoid to export the extra sheet with prompt values?

Where can  I modify  In BO to do that?

Merge Prompts - SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 1

Our OLAP View has 3 sheets, each out of different query from a common cube connnection.

All the 3 queries has exactly same input variables.

 

From Promt merge functionality, could we expect user to enter the variable just once for all the 3 sheets?

Now, clicking on each sheets - prompts user each time.

 

Observation:

Clicking on merge prompt in the prompt screen changes the name of the connection to "SAP Netweaver Business Warehouse"

 

Any help is highly appreciated

 

Thanks

Hello,

 

In analysis for olap, the unit or currency is displayed in each cell whereas in analysis office (excel) and in former bex web it was possible to display on top of the column when unique.

 

I know that the enhancement has been asked several times but I would like to know if this enhancement is planned (maybe available).

 

Thanks in advance for your ehlp.

Removing a field from a query corrupts reports (BICS connection)

$
0
0

Hello all,

 

We are currently running BO 4.0 SP5.3 (linux installation). We access data in a SAP BW environment via BICS interface. Most reports our users build are based on one master query that provides the most needed fields.

 

We new want to remove an old field from that query as it should no longer be used in reports. However, tests show that Analysis OLAP reports based on that query get corrupted once the field has been removed. Even reports that did not have the field in the report area or as filter get the error.

 

We can still work with the reports, but an error message keeps on showing each time you open a corrupted report. Even after saving the report with a new name the error messages stays. Putting the field back into the query fixes the error again.

 

The error message is:

The favorite filter cannot be deserialized because the hierarchy [{0}] does not exist. : com.businessobjects.multidimensional.services.MdasRuntimeException: The favorite filter cannot be deserialized because the hierarchy [{0}] does not exist.

 

We would at least expect that reports, which do not have the field in the report area, still work after the field has been removed from the query. Or we need a way to "hide" the field, so users will not see it anymore in Analysis.

 

I also created a ticket as SAP, but maybe someone in here has a faster solution for us.

 

Best regards,

Robert

Time to Migrate Bex Web to Olap for Analysis. Now what? How to manage content and what about about Portal Role Menus (PFCG) vs BI Launch Pad

$
0
0

At BI2013 conferennce today, Thierry Adus from SAP gave a really good presentation on Olap for Analysis SP05 and he may have me convinced that now is the time to begin planning on moving from Bex Web to Olap for Analysis with BI 4 SP05. 

 

Especially once there is a replacement for Bex broadcaster, mentioned to be coming in late 2013, we are ready to start the process of migrating our Bex web reports to Olap for Analysis.

 

However I remain reluctant giving Olap for analysis to casual users that are finally are comfortable with bex web after 5 years.  And it is not prtactical or possible to replace all bex reports with webis.Thought I would post this topic to see if you might offer any experiences and suggestions for migrating Bex web reports to BI Olap for Analysis and how you manage the transition from Enterprise Portal Roles to BI Launch Pad.

 

 

(1) What was the best process to take Bex reports to Olap for Analysis?  We have several  hundreds....

Is it as simple as opening the Bex query in Analysis for Olap client? 

 

(2) But...We also use the enterprise portal and publish to roles (PFCG) which we currently import to EP for menus for different business groups.  A query could be published to multiple roles. How do we manage this for bi launch pad?   Trying to retain similar portal role authorizations (list of reports) and avoid duplicating the documents in BI Launch Pad?  One thought is create a webi with a list of of olap for analysis as hyerplinks, but complaints are webi is too slow to open.  Guess could do same with design studio, but really miss the idea of Bex query designer publish to role, import role to portal as workset, add workset to portal role as delta link. Done, then each time we transport PFCG role change in BW ABAP, the portal role is updated automatically. 

 

I fear managing contnent in bi launch pad is a great deal of maintenannce.  So - question how do we manage the content?  I am not comfortable just giving casual users olap for analysis and have them open and search for the report.  They just wont do it.

 

(3) I learned that the mobile client for Analysis is Design Studio and in May release  will have function to save an anlysis view as a Design studio application, which can run on IOS as of BI Mobile 4.4. and BI 4 SP05.  I guess it is a manual effort to open every Bex report in olap for analysis, save as design app, then open in designer and verify/adjust,  publish as design html5 doc, assign folder categories and mobile category?  Expect to invest some time here...

 

I realize another long bloggish discussion, but geeked out on the great presentation by Thierry today!

 

Appreciate your thoughts and experiences.  I will share as I work through it and find out more.

 

KInd Regards,

Export to excel only exporting key and not text for dimensions

Hi All,

 

We've recently ran into a weird issue with the export function for Analysis for OLAP where dimensions such as vendor and material (from BeX query to MM InfoCubes) are exported only as the key no matter what is displayed in the analysis table.

 

I've tried to display text only and long description with no luck.

 

Has anybody else come across that issue before or know of a solution?

 

Thanks in advance.

All,
I need to pass parameters entered by a user from a company website to an Analysis for Olap report and have the results return to the webpage. I've been searching SCN but have not found anything that describes the best method for doing this.

 

We are using BEx queries with BICS connections.  We are currently upgrading BW to be 7.31 SP10.  We’re on BI 4.0 but will upgrade to 4.1 in August. 

 

Thank you for your help,

Saved report layouts reverting back to default view

$
0
0

Hi,

I would like to know what can cause a saved (pre-existing) A-OLAP report to lose its customized layout and revert back to the default view of its underlying BEx query.  Our BI A-OLAP uses BEx queries as data-sources, connecting to them via BICS. Platform version: BI 4.0.5.1

 

Every so often we receive user complaints that they have lost the customized layout of their saved reports.

 

1. What Bex query property settings, in query designer and in BW, can affect pre-existing OLAP Analysis Workspaces?

2. What changes (within an A-OLAP workspace or in BI, Bex, BW, CMC etc.,) can make an AOLAP report layout revert back to default view?

 

Thanks
