Authorization in BEx Query Designer: "read only" for definitions of variables

Hello,
I`m developing a concept of authorizations for key user who should be able to maintain certain
objects in the query designer. For other objects they should have access “read only”.
The users have authorizations  to  design new queries.  They should be able to use existing variables
(SAP Business Content ( 0*) and customer variables (z*). On this point, I have a problem: in the selection window of the query designer there are only buttons to create, to delete and to edit a variable.
The user must have authorizations for changing, although he just wants to look for the definition
of a variable (if he wants to see their basic or global settings before using the variable).
I can´t find a possibility to switch from “edit” to “read only”.
The users should only see and apply variables from others (SAP, collegues), but he mustn´t be able to
change them.
The user needs the following authorization objects:  S_RS_COMP , activity =02 (change), also
authorization object S_RS_COMP1. If I give the users only activity 03 (display),
the user get the message: “display not allowed”.
Is there any possibility to give a key user the authorization to display all variables with
their definitions?
Best regards

Hi raghukan,
This is may be due to the authorization but still you can check the consistency check for these queries using RSRV.

  • Authorizations to restrict Query Designer with Only Display option

    Hello,
    I have looked all most all possible ways in internet to find out a suggestion/solution for the below. But Invain.
    I would like to know the Transactions, authorization objects and profiles  that are responsible to restrict users not to change and copy queries from QD.
    I need only display option for queries.
    Also,please confirm shall we restrict the same from Transaction SCC4.
    Thanks In Advance.

    Hi there,
    Since you're talking about a QD system, you should lock it in transaction SCC4.
    In case you need to change things in QD without opening the system in SCC4, you can go to transaction rsa1->transport connection and click on Object Changeability. In there you can define what paricular options are "opened for changes" even with SCC4 in close mode.
    Also, for roles having that objects, you should use the authorization object S_RS_COMP and S_RS_COMP1 with Activity with value 02 - Display
    Diogo.

  • BEx Query Designer - Display only Resultrows

    Hi,
    I have a Question, is it possible only to display the yellow result rows of a query ?
    My key figures are dependent from 3 Characteristics, like Partner, Treaty a.o. but I want to see only the Partner and the result row.
    Thanks for help,
    Karin

    Hi,
    If you want to display only result values without key figure values, choose properties of the keyfigure and give 'Suppress Result' in the place of "Calculate Single Value As" then you can suppress the keyfigure values.
    If you want to display only results with out showing the characteristics, right click the char and give display as 'No Display'.

  • Settings for SAP Portal start page from BEx Query Designer

    Hi!
    In order to see queries I would like to use SAP Enterprise Portal from BEx Query Designer.
    When I push "execute" button within BEx Query Designer a wrong page will be shown in browser.
    I changed the settings in table RSPOR_T_PORTAL, but still get the wrong Portal page shown in browser.
    Question:
    What is the transaction/table/report to customize the portal start page using by BEx Query Designer?
    Thank you very much!

    Hi Anton?
    Many thanks for your reply.
    But I mentioned that I changed the URL within table RSPOR_T_PORTAL and this does not help...
    Do you speak Russian? Me too
    Can you also help me with the following problem?
    Hi!
    I am about to implement SAP Best Practices scenario "B34: Accounts Receivable Analysis".
    Therefore I load the data from SAP ERP IDES system into SAP NetWeaver 2004s system.
    My problems are:
    when I try to load the transaction data for Infosources 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_AR_6 from SAP ERP system the following happens:
    - the status is getting u201Cyellowu201D (194 from 0 records)
    - at the next day the status is getting u201Credu201D and I received the following error:
    Errors while sending packages from OLTP to BI
    Diagnosis
    No IDocs could be sent to BI using RFC.
    System Response
    There are IDocs in the source system ALE outbox that did not arrive in the ALE inbox of BI.
    Further analysis:
    Check the TRFC log.
    You can access this log using the wizard or the menu path "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system".
    Error handling:
    If the TRFC is incorrect, check whether the source system is fully connected to BI. In particular, check the authorizations of the background user in the source system.
    Comment:
    I did not find any entries on "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system"
    The Source system connection EC6CLNT100 is OK
    Can some one help me to solve this problem?

  • Creating Restrictions in BEx query designer for (1-a), where a is variable.

    Dear All,
    >>  Suppose for the variable in the BEx query designer, I've created restriction for 0FISCPER to the variable 0P_PER (as 0P_PER-1) by right clicking 0P_PER3, from that a dialog box appears.  In that I've selected 0P_PER3 and then clicked on offset variable and when I set the offset variable, it works for (0P_PER-1.etc, 0P_PER+1,etc..)
    But if I want to have (1-0P_PER), then plz tell me how to define this restriction?
    Plz explain me the steps to perform (1-0P_PER) restriction in BEx query designer in BW1.
    I'm using SAP BI 7.2 gui.
    Expecting your reply soon,
    with Regards,
    Jerald

    My requirement is that I want to have " 1-fiscal year"., But this I could not define using offset variables, since using offset we can define "fiscal year +1" or "fiscal year -1". 
    So there would be some other way to define "1-fiscalyear".  So Please help me to define "1-fiscalyear"  by giving me the steps.

    Your formulas seems to be straight forward.

  • Results based on From and To value in Bex query designer.

    Dear all,
    We are using BI7.00. In one of our report which pertains to PM user wants to get the details of number of breakdowns which falls in the value range 0 to 1 hours.
    I created a condition which has 2 variables, one is From value and the other is for the To value (since user wants to enter both the limits). I have written a condition that if the breakdown hour is greater than or equal to variable1 and less than or equal to variable2.
    Using the above condition if the query is run, i am not getting the desired output. The values avaialble in the report are 0.65,0.78,1.30,7.38,0 etc., when i give 0 to 1 i should get the values 0.65,0.78 and 0 but instead report displays "No valid results".
    I changed the condition and selected "Between" variable 1 and variable 2 - yet no change in the query.
    To my knowledge i foresee that system is not able to recognize the decimal and hence provides details only based on the whole numbers.
    How to get my requirement achieved in the Bex query designer.
    Experts suggestion with steps will be very useful to solve my problem.

    M.M
    Edited by: Magesh Magesh on Dec 26, 2008 11:28 AM

    Hi Magesh,
    I think you could try one more way.
    Create a formula inserting your two formula variables for limits .(FV -  are ready for input ) .
    The formula would return the result as 1 or 0 because it would have boolean condition in it.
    You could then place a condition in the query designer to only show all records where the value of the formula key fig is 1.
    You formula A would look like
    ( KF > FV1) AND (KF < FV2) * 1.
    And in the condition put A EQ 1.
    You could scale the key figures as well and multiply the limits mentioned by the users in FV1 and FV2 if decimals are still not recognized by SAP.(scaling)

    Sunmit.

  • Usage of formulas in conditions in BEx Query Designer

    Hi guys,
    does anybody of you guys know, if it's possible to use the results of formulas in conditions? I tried it, but the result of the query was "No applicable data found", but there are data for the selection.
    When I'm defining the condition with the key figure (no restricted or calculated key figure), then the query can be executed.
    In my case, I like to define a condition based on a formula result. The value should only be displayed, when the result is greater than 30.
    Any ideas or are there any bugy in the BEx Query Designer?
    Thanks a lot + best regards,
    Clemens

    Hi Clemens,
    I have created a condition in my own system based on formula and it works perfectly fine. Please check following points in your condition change mode,
    1) Condition is marked as Active.
    2) In the block "Evaluate condition below for" you will have to select "All characteristics in drilldown Independently". If you have selected combination of characteristics then you will have to maintain proper sequence otherwise your condition will not work.
    3) In the next block when you set the condition, click on new, in the first block select your Formula from dropdown and set the proper operator in your case you will have to select "Greater than" in the next column set the value of key figure and just trasnfer it.
    Now you are ready to use the condition.

  • Condition (Defintion) in BEX Query Designer

    Hi Experts,
      I am trying to define a condition in BEX Query Designer.
    I defined my condition and bit confused with Characterstic Assignment
    What Happens if is select 9What is the difference)
    1) All Characterstic in the Drilldown Independtly
    2)Most Detailed  Characterstic Along the Rows
    3)Most Detailed Characterstic Along Columns and
    4)Individual Chars and Chars.Combinations
    Thanks

    Hi,
    <b>● All Characteristics in the Drilldown Independently</b>
    This setting allows you to apply a condition in a general way. Depending on which characteristics you use in the drilldown, you obtain different results.
    Note that the characteristics that are already used in an active condition for characteristic combinations are not included.
    This option is optimized for ranked list conditions, but can also be used for threshold value conditions with relative values.
    <b>●Most Detailed Characteristic Along the Rows or Columns</b>
    This option is optimized for threshold value conditions. The condition is applied to the most detailed characteristic of the rows or columns.
    Note that this function is not supported when executing the query in the BEx Analyzer. For more information, see Restrictions in the BEx Analyzer.
    <b>● Single Characteristics and Characteristic Combinations</b>
    This setting allows you to evaluate the condition for characteristics or characteristic combinations defined for specific drilldowns only. You can select any characteristic (of the characteristics used in the query in rows, columns, or in the free characteristics) or a characteristic combination.
    ○       If you only want to evaluate the condition when a certain characteristic is present in the drilldown, select this characteristic.
    ○       If you want to evaluate the condition for characteristic combinations, select multiple characteristics.

  • Drilldown in BeX Query Designer

    Hello,
    I am new in SAP. I am having problem creating Drill down. I have this report where all the data is Transactional data. So I haven't created any Master Data. So I won't be able to use Navigational Attribute for Drill down purpose and I don't want to use Hierarchy. Is there any possibility of getting the Drill down in BeX Query Designer? Any help will be appreciated.
    Warm Regards,
    Debayan

    Hi Debayan,
    first of all, what is your requirement to create a drill down?
    A drill down in BEx query means showing additional information from report output. There are 3 ways to drill down a query in BEx
    1. Master data-Navigational Attributes
    2. Master data- Hierarchies
    3. Free characteristics
    As you dont have any master data in the report (which is very strange) you can use the additional characteristics provided in the 'Free characteristics' to see how the drill down works in BEx.
    Please share your exact requirement.
    Hope this helps.

  • Division in bex query designer

    Hi experts,
    I have a strange problem in bex query designer. I am trying to calculate margin in % but the calculation gives the wrong result.
    The two figures I try to calculate are -25124 and -91248 (figures in 1000 NOK)
    The result should be (-25124/-91248)100 = 27,53* (when formula entered in excel)
    I have tried the following in Bex query designer
    -25124 %A -91248 = -0,02753%
    (-25124/-91248)*100 = 0,02753
    What might be the problem here?

    Thanks again for your answer,
    I will try to explain my report (requirement from the business user)
    Actual (KF)----
    Budget (KF)       
    Sales-- -91248--
    -77153         
    FSP-- -25124--
    -18918
    Margin  % -
    (FSP Actual/Sales Actual) 100---(FSP Budget/Sales Budget)100
    Dim
    Dim
    Result
    The margin is calculated in the cells in the bex query designer to differentiate between actual and budget. There is no option to calculate the margin in the columns as this would influence all other rows aswell.

  • Difference between  aggregation and calculation tab in BEx Query Designer

    HI,
    I am using BEx Query Designer for my report, for the key figures in the coloumn area i slected one numeric key figures, in  the properties tab i found aggregation tab and calculation tab.
    I need to sum up the total values for that particualar coloumn, when i used calculation tab i found to sum all the values for a particular coloumn, then what is the use the aggreagation tab?
    I not able to used that Aggregation tab it is showing as a hidden fields...
    can any one tell me whats the exact difference between these tabs and when we need to use which tab?
    With Regards,
    Thanesh Kumar.

    Hi Thanesh Kumar,
    I moved this thread from forum Data Warehousing to Business Explorer since it is a query related question (as SDN moderator).
    I could explain to you the difference between these two tabs.
    For "calculation" tab, it changes the display of result and does not change the calculation logic.
    It means that, if this key figure is used further in formula, still the original number (without "calculation" tab setting)  is used for further formula calculation.
    For "aggregation" tab, it changes the real calculation logic.
    The system takes the setting as the aggregation rule for records.
    The most common aggregation rule is of course summation. If you set to e.g. Average here, the system does the
    Average instead of summation when aggregating records. And the Average value will be taken for calculation
    in further formulas or other calculations.
    For "aggregation" tab, you could only use it for CKF (calculated key figure) or formula and you could not use it for
    a basic key figure. That should be the reason why you see it greyed-out.
    Regards,
    Patricia

  • Constant Selection in BEx Query Designer on BI7

    Hi guys
    According to this blog <a href="/people/prakash.darji/blog/2006/09/19/the-hidden-secret-of-constant-selection Selection</a>, we can create constant selection on both Characteristics and Key figures. I understand how to do it with restricted key figures.
    Can anyone give me a step by step guide on how to create constant selection for a Characteristic in BEx Query Designer on BI7. I can't find options for 'constant selection'
    Or is this the same thing when you include or exclude values?

    I am actually using a Multiprovider for my queries but business requirements mean I need to create joins.
    I am trying to avoid Infosets and I believe another way is to use the Constant Selection feature in Query Designer.
    Going back to my previous posting, I know how this is done with a restricted KF but I don't know how when it comes to characteristics.
    Can anyone help?
