Hi Amit thanks a lot for the response,
1. the issue is we have lots of formulas/variables in the report. ex: v.InTransit measure which has
=If(IsNull([2443_Q001].[In Transit]);0;[2443_Q001].[In Transit])
and it had only 1 query included now with excel has In Transit and this should be included as well in the formula. I'm wondering how i can have both
another ex: v.3mthUsage with
=If(IsNull([Usage (in SAP) - Rolling 3 Months]);0;(([Usage (in SAP) - Rolling 3 Months]/3)*(-1))) which comes from query 3 above and excel has Usage (in SAP) - Rolling 3 Months too.
2. I think because of the size of data the webi or for some other reason webi rich client throws error all the time such as below
to be honest BW OLAP as backend seems to be very painful Amit, I never found this kind of issues with relational datasources (at least not these many) and the we do not have Webi rich client enabled and they are not planning to even do it anytime soon.
also, they do not like universes (if it doesnt work in webi browser i mean with the 2 unnecessary lines in excel sheet mentioned above) I have to suggest them to use IDT
Also, another important point is that in webi browser there is no option to mention cell ranges, we can just say A1:F5 but I may not need E column, is there an option to mention ranges (ex: A1:D5,F1:F5 etc) again, the excel data is incremental and there could be more than 5 rows of data. Any suggestion
I really appreciate your help on this topic,
Thanks again
Kris
