BPC 7.5 NW: Inserting an excel formula the data col. in an EVDRE input sch.

Hello,
I am trying to design an input schedule for uploading trial balances from SAP. In one sheet, I have an extract of a trial balance from SAP. In another sheet, I have an EVDRE report which has an expansion in rows based upon the entities selected (so that the entities selected for data upload could match the entities in the trial balance. It is flexible for different users/regions).
The problem is that I would like to use a VLOOKUP or SUMIF formula to populate the data column in the EVDRE report (pull the data from the trial balance sheet). But as soon as the data is submitted, the formula will disappear and I will just have data.
Does anybody have any ideas as how this could be avoided.
Many thanks.

1. Login into BPC for Admin
2. Once logged into your Appset , open the Dimension library
3. Process each dimension by selecting the "Process members from membersheet" and by unchecking the "Take system offline" option
4. Process all the dimensions one by one not together.
5. Once processing the dimensions is done then open the Applications and Modify each Application by adding or changing the Application Description.
6. Once done modifying Applications then logout of the BPC Admin and BPC Excel.
7. Login back again into BPC for Excel by going through the connection wizard.
Ideally this should solve your problem and If all the dimensions are processed successfully then logoff and login to see if you stilll see the EVDRE error.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sanjeev

  • Insertion of image in the data base - Help-me!!!!

    hello for all..., Well, somebody has some example of insertion of image in the data base saw upload, using JSP (Scriptlets)?
    or some example that I can insert in the bank the name of the image, and the image in a directory!???????
    Thank�s!

    if u r using sql server then u can define a column as TEXT and insert the file as binayr data, along with that u can store the file name.
    While retirving u can creat a fileiputstream and read the binary data and displya the image in the browser.
    Another way is to use upload servlet and store the image files in the server hard drive and store the image name and path in datbase .

  • The data that is in the table is from excel, so the data to be read can changed?

    for example the data before is EXEC 1,how if i'll changed the value to 1 how can i read those data if he changed the EXEC 1 to 1. that's why i said the data is changeable.
    can you give me a simple example about this?
    Thank You

    You need to some extend what will the data be. If you know that it is either a string+space+number or just a number, than you can use match pattern function to look for the space character.
    If there is a space character, you will read the string after the space, which in your case is a number. If there is no space character, and you are only passing a numeric string, then just read the whole string.
    I create an example that does that.

  • Using excel formulas to circumvent non-existence of data

    Hello,
    If there is no data in my database for a particular month my query retrieves nothing. Accordingly I would like to insert an excel formula in the spread sheet saying something like "If cell is blank then insert next month name"
    Is there a way of excel knowing what the next month name is (for example: what comes after APRIL)? Can I create a list of values in excel to tell it what month comes next?
    Example:
    APRIL - $100
    MAY - $100
    NOVEMBER - $100
    I would like to insert all the months between May and November
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Alicia,
    It can be done. Have the months from Jan to Dec hardcoded. And write a formula saying
    =if(<value Cell>="",<corresponding cell having the next month>,<cell having the same next month>)
    I hope it solves the issue.
    It can be clearer if you explain the scenario, that way it would be easy to solve.
    Thanks,

  • DSO or ODS "Insert New Hierarchy Nodes" under Data Fields

    When you insert info objects under the Data Fields in DSO right mouse click on the Data Fields icon and you will find Insert New Hierarchy Nodes . I created a hierarchy node with infoobjects associating with it which will be visible under the Filters Folder in BEx Query designer as a seperate folder. I can add them to the infoobjects from this folder into the query. I did not know how to apply this functionality in Queries and what it really does. My guess was you can create dynamic hierarchy using characteristic infoobjects from transactional data.Any ideas or links to documentation. This option was available from 7.X in DSO's and i think even in 3.x ODS.

  • How to export the data as integer into excel sheet?

    Hi All,
         I am working on export to excel functionality and using JEXCEL API to create it.  When I export the data to excel sheet, the data are stored in text format in the excel sheet.  If I click on summation button on excel sheet,  it is not summing up the column values since it is stored as the text format. 
    I am writing the following code:
    for(Iterator iter = columnInfos.keySet().iterator(); iter.hasNext();){
    String attributeName = (String)iter.next();
    for(int index = 0; index < dataNode.size(); index++){
    try{
    IWDNodeElement nodeElement = dataNode.getElementAt(index);
    String colVal = nodeElement.getAttributeAsTex(attributeName);
    Label value = new Label(j, index + 1, colVal);
    sheet.addCell(value);
    j++;
    Here colVal is the variable which holds the data in string format.  So I was just trying to convert it into integer format and used Integer.parseInt(colVal).
    But Label keyword accepts only the int,int,string arguments. 
    Is there any other option to change it as integer value while exporting to excel sheet.
    Pls suggest.
    This is very urgent.
    Regards,
    Subashini.

    Hi Gopal,
    Pls refer the following link.
    /people/subramanian.venkateswaran2/blog/2006/08/16/exporting-table-data-to-ms-excel-sheetenhanced-web-dynpro-binary-cache
    I have used the same coding which is mentioned in this link. 
    And also I cannot use integer.parseInt(colval)  because new Label()  will accept only the int,int,string as parameters. 
    Here goes my to excel method code which exports the data to excel sheet .
    private FileInputStream toExcel(IWDNode dataNode, Map columnInfos) {
    String fileName = "output.xls";
    IWDCachedWebResource cachedExcelResource = null;
    int i = 0;
    try{
    File f = new File("output.xls");
    WritableWorkbook workbook = Workbook.createWorkbook(f);
    WritableSheet sheet = workbook.createSheet("First Sheet", 0);
    for(Iterator coluinfoitr = columnInfos.keySet().iterator(); coluinfoitr.hasNext();){
    Label label = new Label(i, 0, (String)columnInfos.get(coluinfoitr.next()));
    sheet.addCell(label);
    i++;
    int j = 0;
    for(Iterator iter = columnInfos.keySet().iterator(); iter.hasNext();){
    String attributeName = (String)iter.next();
    for(int index = 0; index < dataNode.size(); index++){
    try{
    IWDNodeElement nodeElement = dataNode.getElementAt(index);
    String colVal = nodeElement.getAttributeAsText(attributeName);
    Label value = new Label(j, index + 1, colVal);
    sheet.addCell(value);
    catch (Exception e){
    wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException(" Data Retrive Err :" + e.getLocalizedMessage(),false);
    j++;
    workbook.write();
    FileInputStream excelCSVFile = new FileInputStream(f);
    cachedExcelResource = getCachedWebResource(excelCSVFile, fileName, WDWebResourceType.getWebResourceType("xls", "application/ms-excel"));
    wdContext.currentContextElement().setExcelDownload(cachedExcelResource.getURL());
    workbook.close();
    It is exporting the data in text format.  So I am unable to sum up the column values in the excel sheet.
    I need an alternate solution wherein I can export the data in integer format to excel sheet and then sum up the column values by clicking on summation button.
    Hope I am clear now.
    Pls suggest.

  • Pivot Report in Excel from Oracle data base

    I need to bring data in Excel from Oracle table.

  • Why does Number's include the date and cell title when creating a formula!!

    When typing in a formula, if the 1st column has a date in it then, regardless of where on that row I begin the formula, the date and title of the column appears in the equation rather than the cell designations. What I get is this:
    ='# Shares Bought' 'Apr 4, 2009'*Share ∆ 'Apr 4, 2009'
    All I wanted was =D2*H2, but instead I got all of that. If I manually erase everything and change it to =D2*H2 it reverts back as it was as shown above.
    I tried the same thing without the date in the first column and this eliminated the problem. However, I need the date, so why does Number's insist on doing this?
    Thanks.

    And now, the envelope please. The winner is Jerry Green for his spot-on answer!
    Hey, Jerry!
    I really appreciate your response to this silly little problem. I've used a few spreads in my time, but I've never seen this before. Guess I should have checked the Prefs but didn't. Anyway, I'm good to go now.
    This still, I don't think, explains why the row without the date configured correctly. Does it??
    Again, thanks for your perfect answer.

  • Formula for dates back 7 days failing because of end of month?

    HI I have a CR that has been working fine till now. it runs every Sunday late in the day and looks back past 7 days. it has formula for dates from and to.
    tonumber(totext(CurrentDate,'yyyyMMdd'))-6
    and tonumber(totext(CurrentDate,'yyyyMMdd'))
    yet this past Sunday, it is not giving all previous 7 days. could it be related in any to the end of month? i cant think this is it. but perhaps.the date col is type = NUMBER and in YYYYMMDD.
    WHen I ran this report manually by selecting on the dates needed it returns more data.

    Hi Paul,
    The issue is when you convert a date to number a subtract 6 from it, it doesn't go 6 days back; it just subtracts 6 days from that converted number.
    So, today, represented as a number would be 20140804 however, when you subtract 6 from this number you get : 20140798 which of couse is Not a date.
    Your code (if the dates are stored as number in the database) should be :
    tonumber(totext(CurrentDate-6,'yyyyMMdd'))

  • SAP BPC 10.0 NW - Delete excel formulas

    Hello Experts,
    I have both "Keep formula on data" chekboxes selected (inside Edit Report and inside Sheet Options) and in my computer when I refresh the workbook the formulas are not deleted, but in other computers, also with the same version of EPM add-in the formulas are deleted.
    Any ideas?

    Hello Guys,
    I've tried to put the last 2 options selected as you said Nilanjan but no results.
    Rohit, the report is static. I've created the report with Insert new member functionality and so the values of some cells are coming from input forms and others are just excel formulas. When I open the report in my computer everything works, when I try to open it in other computers the Excel formulas are deleted...
    Do you have any ideia of what is happening?

  • Report generation, inserting Excel formulas

    Hi everyone,
    We just acquired the Report Generation Toolkit. I've got the basic report figured out but I'm stymied at inserting formulas where I need to. The report will have one row added when data is acquired. At that time I need to insert two formulas each referring to the cell immediately to the left of the cell it's in. I've found examples that put formulas at the end of the sheet but none that plugs them in as the data is being saved. Does anyone have an example of how this can be done?
    Thanks 

    This snippet creates a report with the value 3 in a cell (as it turns out, it's cell A1).  Note that because I'm using Excel Easy Table, I need to turn my scalar (3) into a 2D array.  Easy Table gives me the cell address just to the right of the insertion (where the Formula will go -- by subtracting one from the Column, I can get back the Excel Address (A1) of the "cell to the left".  I then create a formula (starting with "=") that doubles this cell and adds 0.5, then use Excel Insert Formula to put it into the Worksheet, where it becomes 6.5.

  • NEED ADVICE about Inserting a custom formula column in EXPANSION memberset

    Dear all:
    I am asked to create a report with TIME(col), ACCOUNT(col), PRODUCT(row), where ACCOUNT stores Beginning Inventory Amt, COS, etc.
    The problem I am having is that the user requests to have a place to show COS ratio column. COS ratio value is derived from ACCOUNT COS and ACCOUNT NETSALES of my ACCOUNT MEMBERSET.
    I tried various ways but was unable to keep the formula in EVDRE so this COS ratio column's formula goes with the rest of the expansion.
    The result I want is something like below, where NETSALES and COS are my dimension members and RATIO is Excel formula STDCOST/COS... As the report expands by different TIME hierachy (i.e. 2008.total, 2008.h2, 2008.q3), RATIO is expanded accordingly.
    Is this doable in EVDRE?
                                       2008.10                                      2008.11                                      2008.12
                    NETSALES     COS     RATIO         NETSALES  COS   RATIO          NETSALES   COS      RATIO

    Sarcasm?
    You can create a hundred different evdre templates and still not know everything about evdre and its functionality keeps growing. Nothing beats experience here. Iu2019m not able/allowed to provide examples, perhaps one of your colleagues? Or another forum participant?
    1) The online help is good and the Best Practice guide is also very good. I canu2019t send the evdre guide and it is not published by SAP. You can get the BPC for Office Useru2019s Guide;
    Support Portal u2013 Release & Upgrade Info u2013 Install & Upgrade Guides u2013 SAP BPC u2013 (Select your BPC release)
    Office User Guide
    https://websmp101.sap-ag.de/instguidescpm-bpc
    Grab the BPC 7 version as well, it has some better samples.
    To fully capitalize on the fullness of evdre you also need an expert level knowledge of excel, (and I donu2019t mean lots of experience). Evdre is the combination of BPC functionality and excel working in union with each other. VBA is also important in very complex situations.
    2&3) This is one approach. One of the nice features in evdre is the ability to insert excel formulas within a data range. You may need to adjust your row/col key range to address your needs.
    There is nothing really wrong with using dimension logic. Itu2019s important to understand you will take a performance hit somewhere and you should test to determine if the performance hit is within an acceptable range. I have one client with a few hundred accounts with formulas and there application works great and the performance is not to terrible.

  • How to use Excell formula's within EVDRE

    Hi,
    we want to built a rather large P&L with time in columns and account and cost center in the rows.
    We would like to insert some subtotals within the P&L strucure using simple excel formula's.
    So we create the P&L structure and leave some empty rows in between, which are filled up with excell formula's. The row key range is adapted, so it does not reference the excell formula's. If we hit refresh workbook, our P&L is ready and displaying the correct data.
    Problem now is if we select 'expand all'. My entire P&L structure is changed and displayes the last section of the row key range several times (as many as we have different row key ranges) ... I've put "noexpand" on all of the dimensions on row and column ...
    So normally does one use the functionality of excell formula's within a EVDRE report?
    D
    solved it

    Hi D
    One way is to switch of the expansions and insert the rows and then have the subtotals. to swith of expansion just edit the cell where you have written the evdre function and then remove the formulas pointing to expand range.
    EVSUB in after range would not work here as the whole range is related to one dimension and it works if we have two dimensions and need subtotals
