Missing workbook text elements

Former Member

Hello,

After upgrading to BI7 we are experiencing an issue with the missing text elements. We use workbooks with a sheet to receive the query and then a macro to reformat the query to user display form. The query sheet generally has a text element area and then a data area. When building the workbook we select the text element object and turn on all the text elements, this makes debugging easier and sometimes the text elements are used in the end report. Randomly after saving the workbook the text elements are turned off and on subsequent executions they are not displayed. The workbook then requires modifications to turn on the text elements, save the workbook and then transport.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick

Hello all,

I also have this problem with missing variable values in text elements from workbook.

I have Sap Netweaver 7.1 and support package 7, patch 1.

Any help?

Hello,

After some testing of the fixes that were applied we are still experiencing the issue with disappearing text elements.

Any additional information or recommendations would be appreciated.

KR,

We had to apply 1132992 since the other was specific to SP17 (we're on SP16). Unfortunately the problem was not re-createable and seemed to happen randomly. We are monitoring the situation and will report the results after a little time to test.

Thanks,

Hi,

We also had similar issue after migration. And applying OSS note 1143771 fixed our issue. Please check the Support Pack versions mentioned in the OSS note and the SP your system is on. Hopefully applyin the above note should fix the issue.

Thanks,
