Analysis for Office: change system connection in workbook

[Former Member]

We are new to using Analysis 1.4 for Microsoft Office and are using BW connections via the "Local System", not using Voyager connections.  There is a similar question by Guy Verschueren at this link.   The answer posted is "You can follow the normal process of transporting a workbook".   We have not been able to determine how to change the connection while transporting the workbook, using LCM.  Also, it does not seem that you can manually change the connection.   Does anyone have a more specifics on how the system connection can be changed?

Hi Steven,

It is possible to change the system using the button "Replace System". You can find this option in "Platform Settings" of Analysis for Office.

However, the system replacement is only available for "offline" workbooks. Which means that it is only available for workbooks where the data source is opened but not yet connected to the system.

You can find this information in the User Guide (chapter 11.3 - "System Replacement") that you can find by visiting the link http://help.sap.com/boao.
