Symptom
It is not possible to create a folder or sub-folder in roles of BW system directly from Analysis Office.
In the context menu, only the Refresh button is available:
Environment
SAP Analysis for Microsoft Office
Cause
This is not a bug in the tool, but a limitation in the communication/data access layer used by AO. The APIs do not support the creation and change of the folders.
Resolution
It is necessary to create/change the roles directly in the BW platform (e.g. via PFCG tcode).
