Failed to load workbook from BusinessObjects Enterprise

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I created a Live Office document on top of WebI report and exported it to CMS and in Xcelsius when I try to import this LO document it gives a message "Failed to load workbook from BusinessObjects Enterprise".

My BO version is XI 3.1, Live Office : 3.1, Xcelsius version is SP3.

Any suggestions ?

Regards,

Hi Mahesh,

Are you using 'Open From BOE' option under Live Office menu in the excelspreadsheet embedded inside Xcelsius?

Try using Data -> Import From Platform menu inside Xcelsius.

Thank you.

Hi Mahesh,

Its recommended to use Live Office outside Xcelsius in Microsoft Excel and then import Live Office document inside Xcelsius to create the dashboard.

Thank you.

Hi Vinay

I tried your suggestion to load the Live Office data using the path Data > Import from Platform. After selecting the Live Office file from BOE, the Live Office data don't seem to be loading into Xcelsius, in other words the Xcelsius hangs. I'm currently using BOE 3.1 SP3 and my Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise and Live Office are also on SP3.

Is there anything I need to do to make it work eg. is there any FP to apply to fix this issue?

Please advise.

Thanks,

Anthony
