AO integration with Design Studio 1.4 - Smart Copy not working.

0 Kudos

Hi,

We are in the process of evaluating integration capabilities of Design Studio 1.4 with Analysis for office. When we worked with Both AO 1.4 SP10 and DS 1.4 in Local Mode both "Smart Copy" and "Create Web Application" features are working as expected. But when we have AO and DS 1.4 in connected mode to BO BI Platform (4.1 SP5) using OLAP connections, "Create Web Application" feature is working as expected but "Smart Copy" is not working. i.e. even though i select smart copy and go "Data Sources" folder in DS and click on "Smart Paste" there is no response and it is not getting copied. Has anyone faced similar issue or have any solution for this problem ?

Thanks,

Satya Rajesh

Hello Satya, you managed to solve the issue , I too feel the same, when I retrieve an Analysis view and use the "smart copy" function is not working in Design Studio.

SAP Analysis Office: 2.0 SP 3

SAP Design Studio: 1.5

Thanks.

Satya - I can't recreate your issue; I am on BI4.1 SP5 patch 3 (the one just issued last Friday)

Are you adding a cross tab or?

Tammy,

I am just performing a basic operation of doing "Smart Copy" in the AO and then going to Design Studio -> Outline Tab -> Data Sources folder -> Right click and select "Smart Paste". The expectation is the Data source from AO will be copied with current navigation state. The above procedure worked fine when both AO and Design Studio are in Local Mode.

Thanks,

Which patch of BI4.1 are you using - SP5 patch 3 is the latest

Same for Design Studio - 1.4 SP1 is the latest

Tammy,

Just to confirm, i have found a SAP Note :2122299 - Smart Copy/Past Not Working for BIP Connections. It says that Smart Copy for BIP Conecitons is supported only in AO 2.0 SP2. Since you have confirmed earlier that it is working fine. Have you checked it on Version >= AO 2.0 SP2 ??

Thanks,

Satya Rajesh
