IBP add-in 64-bit compatible issue

[Yanbing]

Dear Expert,

I got an issue when I open the excel after installed IBP add-in.
1. When I open a blank worksheet, there will be always Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications opening and alert me with the compile error below:
The code in this project must be updated for use on 64-bit systems

2. I close that Compile error but when I use IBP Excel UI, the IBP Excel UI is always saying that "SAP_IBP_Chart.xlam missing or not activated"

3. I have checked that SAP_IBP_Chart.xlam file is already there

Could you kindly suggest what was wrong here? I have tried to uninstall/re-install the 64 bit IBP plugin many times but no luck to fix this.

Here are my system information:

• Microsoft Windows 10 OS
• Microsoft Excel 2016
• IBP add on - IBPEXCELADDON03_0-80004171

I was able to fix this by myself by using a new SAP_IBP_chart.xlam file. If anyone has similar issue here, please feel free to reach me.

Hi, how did you get the new SAP_IBP_chart.xlam file ? I am getting the attached errors when I am trying to pull in the SC 010 template as per the RDS. Below is my configuration. I have the SAP_IBP_chart.xlam file placed in the correct folder as per the OSS note in te error 3 message and downloaded all the github files. But none of them seem to open.

Windows 7

Excel 2013

IBP add in version is 1905.2.0

Hello Yanbing,

I followed in detail the instructions of note 2806360, downloaded the latest version of the SAP_IBP_Chart.xlam file, but get still the same error as shown above. I have a 64-bit Excel version (Microsoft 365), and Exel IBP Addin version 2005.2.0.

Any advice very welcom!

Best regards - Christian

Hi Yanbing,

That's the right approach indeed, from your screenshot it seems that you had an obsolete version from 2017. Just for general information, the most up to date version can always be found on Note: 1790530

Best,

Ivan
