Sometimes
BW power users are maintaining huge workbooks with many queries. Kind of their “personal
dashboards” with important data out of BW systems. The problem with these
workbooks is that sometimes it takes very long time to get the workbook
refreshed. To solve this; users were looking to kind of functionality where
they could decide which query contained in the workbook should be refreshed.
Finally
this function is available there. It is called "The Single Query
refresh" functionality of the BexAnalyzer. It allows refreshing individual
queries if there are several queries used in the workbook. Before once user
clicked on refresh of one query; it refreshed it but also other queries were
refreshed.
To
implement this we need:
1.
In BW server: enable parameter ANA_SINGLEDPREFRESH
with value X in transaction RS_FRONTEND_INIT.
2.
In the workbooks: on General tab of
the Workbook in Settings dialog, a flag "Allow Refresh Function for
Individual Queries" must be checked. Once this is done there in context
menu of an item that belongs to the query a query it has one more option called
"Refresh This Query".
Is this also available in BEX 7.x?
