Use

The report-report interface allows you the flexibility to call a jump target (receiver) online from a BEx query (sender) within or outside of the BI system. Jump targets that have been assigned to a BEx query can be selected in BEx Web applications and in the BEx Analyzer. You access them from the context menu under the Goto function.

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

Prerequisites

To use the RRI in a BEx Query or Web application, you first have to make the necessary settings with sender/receiver assignment.

See Editing Sender/Receiver Assignments for the RRI in the BI System.

Features

Queries, transactions, reports and Web addresses can be jump targets. The parameterization of the target action is taken from the context of the cell that you have jumped from. You can set parameters for calling a BEx Query or a BEx Web Application using input variables that are filled from the selection conditions and the element definitions of the selected cells in the sender query.

Process Flow when Calling the RRI:

When it is called, the RRI first collects the following information from the cells of the sender query:

     the global filter: the rows and columns of the query definition; see also the documentation on defining queriessapurl_link_0002_0002_007.

     variables

     the dynamic filter: the values in the navigation block of the query (filter that can be changed by navigation) including hierarchies; see also the documentation on Structure linknavigation panes in the BEx Analyzer

     filter from the selected restricted key figure

     filter from the selected drilldown characteristics (see also Structure linkNavigation and Navigation Functions)

The RRI provides this information to the receiver as the valid selections. For more information on how this occurs and what you need to note, see Receiver.

Example

For your cost center report (Sender), you want to request master data from an SAP system (Receiver).

For a BEx Query with the up-to-date sales figures for your customer (Sender), you want to request up-to-date stock market data on your customer listed on the stock exchange from the Internet.
