Fields not available after executing Script

samir_bihari — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 21:26:37 GMT

Hi Experts ,

I am trying to connect to SAP BW query using Bex Connector and I am able to fetch the data after running the script as shown below :

Now I close the pop up and Sheet Properties window appears where I should see the list of Available fields and then I can select the desired ones to get displayed in the sheet. But here I am getting the available fields empty and none of the fields are available (Screenshot below ). Hence I am unable to proceed .

Any pointers on how to overcome this issue and get the field list displayed ?

Thanks in Advance

Hi,

check your end line you are droping entire table and because of that you are not getting any field after successfull complitation of script.

Hey Samir,

the last line in your script drops the table you loaded (this line: DROP TABLE [ZCOPA02_Q01_ST_AUTH];). Comment or remove it and the data will remain available.

Thanks Max . It worked . I am just wondering that the script was automatically created by the wizard and I have not written it manually . Not sure why the DROP table command was there .

Hi,

In this code you are creating qvd which can be use in later application.

Here Purpose of drop table is reduce file size.

It would seem that the wizard is designed for an ETL process where one .qvw only extracts and stores the data in .qvd files and other .qvw files transform and load the data.

That's basic practice when using one of the SAP Connectors. SAP Connector is most often used in a first data stage where SAP data is read into QlikView and stored in QVDs. These QVDs will be used by the QlikView document in the next data stage to transform tables into QlikView tables or data marts.

There is no use for QlikView to keep those tables in the document as they do not form a data model. The end result is the set of QVDs that is created on disk.

Best,

Peter
