Hi all ,

Note : We are 4.0 SP5, In 4.0 the right  enable drill is completely removed.

I am looking for a security right that enable "Synchronize drill on the report blocks" for all the users& groups their preferences. Please let me know where to find that option.My users are complaining that the charts & tables are not synch while drill down or up.

BI Launchpad > Preferences > Web Intelligence > Drill Options: Synchronize drill on report blocks

The only solution I can think of, is to very carefully apply following note:

1) @ Rakesh's  http://scn.sap.com/thread/2129600

I enabled this option and but no luck.

2) @ victor' s http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1659566

Thanks for the input , But looks like it not a easy solution and requires lot of effort and customization.

I cannot go ask each and every user to enable this option. The reason is we are using opendocument and pulling the report in different application. Any inputs plzzz

Hi RUC

You have five different options:

A. You logon with each user credentials and change the preferences 

B. You ask the users to change the preferences individually

C. You follow the advice of Victor Gabriel

D. Leave it as it is

E. Wait for a miracle

I would exclude A and E is quite impossible to happen, hence you need to choose between B and C or opt for D 

Thanks

D. Leave it as it is

E. Wait for a miracle

From the above, 

1) Yes A and D is not possible.

2) In D option I think we cannot leave as it is.

3) B option doesn't work if they use Opendocument.

4) E  Wait for a miracle, I think miracle should be done by SAP and I don't think it is a out of box requirement. We can add this right in the access level.

5) Only option is C solution of Victor and we should be careful while implementing.

So conclusion, I think we need to implement http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1659566  this SAP Note very carefully with lot of work around on the server instead access level in CMC.

or wait for SAP Miracle.

Thanks again folks. I need to post in Idea place.

HI RUC,

The worst case you can interact Webi with SDK,

it will enable the option automatically and it will customize the webi as per our requirement

hope you will implement and share it across

Arun, I think it really doesn't make sense to work on SDK for only this option with lot of Budget, hours, consultants. FYI ,SDK is for a purpose and we cannot customize everything using SDK it has limitations.

So please hope for miracle from SAP.

Hi RUC,

I would say apply SAP note 1659566 as suggested by Victor is best possible solution in current scenario. Or hope that SAP will include web intelligence preferences in CMC as they included BI Launchpad preferences.

This setting is always at individual user level and not at group level

There is one workaround mentioned in the below thread, You may want to try that out?
