Upload selection list in BEx web

Former Member

Hello,

Is it possible to upload a filter list from a csv or txt file in BEx web?

This functionality exists in BEx Analyzer.

Any idea on how to accomplish the same in BEx web (using WAD)?

Thanks,

JLT

Hi Jean-Luc,

This functionality is not available in the Web report. Looking at the functional enhancement schedule, this feature is not planned either. You can upload the full list in bex analyzer and save a variant which can be used in the web application.

best regards,

Hi Jean-Luc,

A user over on the ITTOOLBOX BI forum recently pointed out that variable fields in the WAD (7.0+ GUI) will take a formatted input as: value1; value2; value3; . . . etc.

It is not as convenient as uploading a file, but works. Place your input list into a text editor and assemble a long string of values with the semicolon separator. Copy it to the clipboard, then paste into the variable field. I am not sure what the limit is, but it has worked for at least 250 values (NUMC).

Good day. - Dave

Thanks,

That is a good workaround.
