Variants not possible, as the workbook has not been saved on the server

[Former Member]

When locally saved Workbooks are migrated from 3.x to 7.3,

When you open the migrated workbook, click on change variables, save variant option in not enabled and have error message as ‘Variants not possible, as the workbook has not been saved on the server'.

Below is the screen print for error message.

Steps to resolve the issue.     

     1. Open BEx Analyzer.

     2. Open locally saved workbook.

     3. Save workbook in favorites/Roles with the same name in BEx.

     4. Open the saved workbook from favorites, save it locally on the PC.

     5. Now open the locally saved workbook and save variants.

Thanks for reading.
