Sometimes BW people are
just ask to loot at user’s reports stored in his Favorites. Business users
always do not want to deal with report’s technical names. They just refer to
their Favorites and ask to do something with particular report. So be it and as
BW developers we need to deal with it.
How to find reports which
are stored in someone’s BEx Analyzer Favorites? Table which holds this information
is called SMEN_BUFFC. It is common table which holds much more information than
just BW’s Favorites. There is information on Favorites in SAP’s GUI SAP Easy
Access (like tcodes, folders, URL.), BW reports, ABAP Queries, Report Writers
reports etc. To recognize what type of the object is it use field REPORTTYPE,
which can have following values:
<space> ABAP
AQ Query
BB Report
Portfolio Rpt
LS Form
RE Drilldown
Reporting
RW Report
Writer Report
TR Transactions
OT Other
To get someone’s BW
reports a filter on field REPORT and value SAP_BW_QUERY needs to be placed.
Further how to get the BEx
query technical name. From the table SMEN_BUFFC take value of corresponding field
named SAP_GUID. With value of this field go to table RSRREPDIR and put the
value into the field GENUNID on selection.
