SAP Analysis for Office 2.4 Table Design features
In Analysis for Office 2.4 SAP improved the Table Design Editor. You can now create and edit formulas. In an earlier post, I described how to work with Excel formulas in a crosstab. You can add a new column with the table design functionality.
SAP Analysis for Office 2.4 SP1 is available
Since 13.01.2017 the SP1 of Analysis for Office 2.4 is available. You can download it here. You need a S-User to download it. There are three new file system settings:
- UseDataSourceDeltaUpdate
- EnforceDatePickerForCalendarDayVariable
- SetEmptiedDoubleDataCellsToValue0
There are also some changes in the User Interface Customization.
SAP BW Transport of Copies
In my current project, we have a copy of the productive system as a maintenance system, because we made huge changes in
the development system in case of the project. So if there is an error in the production, we can easily repair it.
Some changes have also be transported into the development system, so we have the same state and our future request can be transported into production. For this we use the functionality Transport of Copies. All objects of the originally request are still locked. If you want to create a transport of copies, open the transaction SE01. Check the option “Transport of Copies” and click on Display.
SAP BW Create SPO via BAdI - Part 3
After we created in Part 1 the transparent tables and in Part 2 all BAdI implementation, we can now maintain and create our SPO. First we have to fill our table ZSPOPATTERN with a PATTERNID and a corresponding INFOOBJECT. Go to the se16 and create a new table entry. As PATTERNID enter a unique id for example CALYEAR and as INFOOBJECT 0CALYEAR. For TXTLG and TXTSM enter a useful text. Depending on how many InfoObject are used for a partition, create the other pattern.
SAP BW Create SPO via BAdI - Part 2
After we created in part 1 all tables and objects, we can now create a new BAdI to generate the partitions. Go to the transaction se19 and create a new implementation with the Name RSLPO_BADI_PARTITIONING.
SAP BW Create SPO via BAdI - Part 1
At my current project I needed a way to create Semantic Partitioning Object (SPO) via BAdI to reduce the end-of-year work. After a little search via Google (you cannot find anything on the new SAP Community Page), I found these threads.
