Date range for key date in hierarchy

Dear Friends,
Is there a work around for single key date restriction for time dependent hierarchy.Bcos i can only select one key date in teh report for my hierarchy so that it will take that hierarchy which falls in this date and display the result accordingly.
But is there a way to select the date range for key date so that more than one hierarchy can be used to display my report accrding to the time range.
Say,i have 4 hierarchies (time dependent) like v1,v2,v3,v4 and v5 for jan 08,feb 08,mar 08,apr 08 & may 08 respectively.
In my report,i want to display the result for the time interval say mar to May.
So my report should diplay the result according to the 3 different hierarchies for the time period i.e.v3,v4&v5.
How do i acheive this.
Thanks.

Hi
I think we may do with the Char with text with replecement path.
take time char as Calmonth and set the offet value as -1 and -2 and design the report and use the hierarchies in that query.
Am not surt it willwork but better to try with this.

How can I set a date range for a Date/Time Field in LiveCycle ES2?

I need to set a specific date range for a form set up in LiveCycle ES2. Cannot see where i allows me to do that without a code entered.

Hi,
You can't set a start and end date for the date/time field, the best you can do is validate the range after the user has selected it.
An alternate is to make your own date / time field, like this sample http://adobelivecycledesignercookbookbybr001.blogspot.com.au/2013/05/an-alternative-date-p icker-for.html

Specify a date range for a date field.

Hi folks,
I have cobbled together some javascript using code that someone provided in response to my thread about setting a maximum length between two dates as reference.
My aim is to enforce a minimum date of 01/01/2014 and a maximum date of 31/12/2014. Any date entered that are outside of tis range should result in a warning message.
When I use the below code, I find that the warning message pops up before I ahve even had a chnace to enter any dates, and also when I enter an invalid date it pops up over and over until the program crashes.
Can anyone tell me how I can fix this?
Cheers.
function Scand(cFormat, cString) {
var oDate = util.scand(cFormat, cString);
if(oDate == null) app.alert("Error converting date " + cString + " with format of " + cFormat, 0, 0);
return oDate;
function GetField(cName) {
var oField = this.getField(cName);
if(oField == null) app.alert("Proposed Completion date cannot be more than 180 days after Commencement Date. Please revise " + cName);
return oField;
var date1 = (GetField('Field 30')).value;
var cDateFormat = 'dd-mm-yyyy'; // adjust to match input field's format;
var oDate1 = Scand(cDateFormat, date1)
var nDate1 = Math.floor(oDate1.getTime() / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24))
if(nDate1 < 01-01-2014) app.alert('Date cannot be earlier than 01/01/2014');
if(nDate1 > 31-12-2014) app.alert('Date cannot be later than than 31/12/2014');
this.getField("Proposed Completion Date").setFocus();
event.rc = false;

When putting in Epoch time, do I just literally replace the dates in if(nDate1 < 01-01-2014) with the Epoch time value e.g. if(nDate1 < 1388531238) because now its not calculating correctly, or am I misunderstanding what it is? I tested by putting in today's date 19/02/2014 and still got the alert saying that it was before 1/01/2014...

Using a range of dates for Key Date

In a HR Bi data warehouse, we have a position-to-position hierarchy, where each of the nodes are time dependent. So, it shows for each node, valid from and valid to dates, and all the employees who are reporting to that position. This hierarchy is built on the infoobject 0HRPOSITION, which is maintained in R/3 and extracted to BI.
Let us take an example: Position 1000 is valid from 1-1-2006 to 6-30-2006 Employees reporting to this position are A,B,C,D
Position 1000 is valid from 7-1-2006 to 12-31-9999 Employees reporting to this position are A,E,F,G
When a user chooses the position 1000, and date range 1-1-2006 to 12-31-2006, it show the complete list of employees as
A,B,C,D,E,F,G.
Because the Keydate can only be a single value, and it is automatically taking today's date, and pulling the nodes based on that.
I have created a hierarchy node variable on the 0HRPOSITION infoObject, and entered the value 1000, with no value for the keydate.
The system is simply showing employees, A,E,F and G. That is my problem
My requirement is this: I like to be able to give a date range, (for the hierarchy) say from 1-1-2006 to 12/31/2006 and get the complete list of Employees, which is A,B,C,D,E,F,G.
Is this possible? Can I change the way this hierarchy is defined so that I can pull the possible values for a range?

Thank you Ajay.
After some thinking, I have realized that these options will not work.
We have a position-to-position hierarchy that shows who reports to who in the organization. This hierarchy is built on the Infoobject 0HRPOSITION. Each node in this hierarchy has is time-dependent. Note that, the entire hierarchy is not timedependent. Only the individual position nodes are time-dependent.
This 0HRPOSITION infoobject exists in the Heacount cube as one of the characteristics. Here is my requirement.
1. I want to show in a report, all the employees (directly or indirectly) reporting to a manager for a period of say, 1 year?
I know that I can specify a key date for the hierarchy 0HRPOSITION, then the report will show all the employees (direct and indirect) reporting to a position say 6/30/2008. I don't want this for a specific date, I want to get ALL the employees (direct and indirect) reporting to a position in a range of dates( say 1 year)
Does that make sense? How do we achieve this goal?

How to set a date range for date field ?

Dear Experts,
Scenario:
I have a query in validating the date field in my BSP application. My application is for maintain infotype 0023 Other/Previous Employers online by employees in the company.
As per our design we are maintaining the all employment details of the employee both ( with in the current company / previous employment outside the company) in the same infotype.
Every employee will have a hiring date within the SAP HR system. We consider this date as the cutoff date between current and previous employment in our application. When the employee updating the details wia BSP page I need to check the following.
Record inside current company: Validation that, the user should only able to enter BEGIN DATE (BEGDA) greater than or equal HIRING DATE and END DATE(ENDDA) should be greater than FROM DATE (BEGDA).
Record outside current Company: Validation that, the user should only able to enter BEGIN DATE (BEGDA) less than or equal HIRING DATE and END DATE (ENDDA) should be greater than FROM DATE (BEGDA) and less than HIRING DATE.
Technical Requirement:
How to set a date range for date field, i.e. how we can limit the date range in a HTMLB date field? Can this it be achieved via standard functionality of HTMLB?
Following is the code to describe date field in my application.
    <htmlb:inputField id= "ENDDA_NEW_IN"
                      type= "date"
                doValidate= "TRUE"
                  showHelp= "TRUE"
                  disabled= "FALSE"
                     width= "183"
                     style= "cssTextAreadate"

EasyDMS - search by date range for characteristics of type date

Hi Folks,
I have a characteristic of type date in the additional data of a DMS document. If I enter the date (for example validity date) as 08/31/2009 and search using cv04n and give a date range for the characteristic (i.e. 01/01/2009 - 12/31/2009), the search result will bring up the document.
However, I cannot do this from the EasyDMS find function. I need to specify an exact date. This is not very helpful for user who need to find documents with a validity date between 01/01/2009 - 12/31/2009 for example. Is there a way users can search for date range in EasyDMS find function?
Thanks,
Lashan

To search a date range with EasyDMS Client you have to set the registry key
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP\EasyDms\Generel\DateSearchPick to Value 0
Then you can use the input field like in SAP-Gui. (01.01.2009-31.01.2009)
If you set the value to 1 or the key is not defined you can only search for one specified date.
If you don't find this key on your PC create it as dword.
Maybe you must restart you PC for takeing effect.
Hope this will help you.

Hi Abhi,
in do_prepare_output you are getting mixed entity which is combination of bol entity and value node.
you can get the bol entity from mixed node by calling a method get_model_node similarly to get value node entity get_value mode method is available check the class CL_BSP_WD_MIXED_NODE methos, you will get an idea.

Cannot change variable for key date in aggregate

Hello,
when I drag time-dependant attributes into an aggregates definition I am prompted to enter a key date or choose a variable for that. I then activate and fill that aggregate. Afterwards I deactivate it and remove the time-dependant attributes so there are no time-dependant attributes in the definition any longer. I then want to also remove the variable for the key date but I can't do so. This property is greyed out and there is no context menu for the entry "Variable for key date".
The SAP Help says this should be possible by changing the key date variable through the context menu (see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7d/eb683cc5e8ca68e10000000a114084/frameset.htm).
Has anyone faced this problem, too? I do not want to redefine my aggregate as this is not an elegant solution to the problem.
Thanks to any answers in advance.
Regards,
Philipp

Hey Karim,
Because you have time dependent attributes in the aggregate you need to specify key date:

Find date range for sick leaves

Hi,
Ive been trying to get readable output from HR system.
I have added the source data into Data Model, since i had to read the data with power query. Now i have pivot table like this:
date       workdaY?   user
6.3.2014   Sickleave   user1
1.2.2014   Sickleave   user2
2.2.2014   Sickleave   user2
5.3.2014   Sickleave   user4
5.3.2014   Sickleave   user1
5.5.2014   Sickleave   user1
16.9.2014 Sickleave   user3
7.3.2014   Sickleave   user1
6.5.2014   Sickleave   user1
6.3.2014   Sickleave   user4
Is there any possible way to get some kind of find function to sort and combine the data like this:
user1       Sickleave   5.3-7.3.2014
user1       Sickleave   5.5-6.5.2014
user2       Sickleave   1.2-2.2.2014
user3       Sickleave   16.9-16.9.2014
user4       Sickleave   5.3-6.3.2014

One way to do this is with a VBA macro. The following should get you started.
As you can see looking at the macro, the original data is assumed to be on a worksheet named HRData and starts in A1.
The results are placed on the same worksheet but starting at cell G1. You could easily write the results to another worksheet.
The original data is copied to a temporary worksheet for sorting (and the temporary sheet is subsequently deleted).
A Class Module is added so we can use a User Defined Object which has the properties of the user name, start date and end date of the vacation period.
We then cycle through the sorted data, and create a Sickleave object and add it to a collection. If the "previous" row has the same user, and the date is one more than the previous End Date, we add one to the previous end date; if not, we
create a new object and start another sickleave period.
This is the data input:
and here are the results:
To enter this Macro (Sub), <alt-F11> opens the Visual Basic Editor.
Ensure your project is highlighted in the Project Explorer window.
First, from the top menu, select Insert/Class Module. Highlight the new class module in the Project Explorer; click F4, and rename it to cSickLeave
Then paste the code below into that class module:
=======================================
Option Explicit
Private pUser As String
Private pStartDt As Date
Private pEndDt As Date
Public Property Get User() As String
User = pUser
End Property
Public Property Let User(Value As String)
pUser = Value
End Property
Public Property Get StartDt() As Date
StartDt = pStartDt
End Property
Public Property Let StartDt(Value As Date)
pStartDt = Value
End Property
Public Property Get EndDt() As Date
EndDt = pEndDt
End Property
Public Property Let EndDt(Value As Date)
pEndDt = Value
End Property
Then, from the top menu, select Insert/Module and
paste the code below into the regular module window that opens.
To use this Macro (Sub), <alt-F8> opens the macro dialog box. Select the macro by name, and <RUN>.
====================================

Spliting user entered date range into u201CFrom Date u201C and u201C To dateu201D-user exit

Hi,
In the query i have a created a popup variable for date range for which the processing type is customer exit. When the user exceutes the query he gets the popup for the date range with the default values. The default values are set one month backward.
For example: if today is 5/19/2008, then the popup date range shows 4/19/2008 to 5/19/2008.
Already there is an user exit written for the same.
Now the requirement is i need to split From date and to date entered by user and use them in seperate selections to restrict the keyfigure in the keyfigure column of the query.
Can anyone throw a light on this, how to go about?
Shall i need to create two different variables from date and two date and populate the values, if yes how can i do that ?
Thanks,
Rani.
Edited by: rani on May 19, 2008 10:22 AM

Hello Rani,
                 Check this code,
var1 is already existing variable with values from date and to date values.
ztest1 is the first customer exit single variable,
ztest2 is the second customer exit variable.
ztest1 and ztest2 you can use these variables in the restricted keyfigures which you have mentioned.
when 'ztest1'.
    if i_step = 2. "after the popup
      loop at i_t_var_range into loc_var_range
      where vnam = 'var1'.
        clear l_s_range.
        l_s_range-low = loc_var_range-low.
        l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
        l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
        append l_s_range to e_t_range.
        exit.
      endloop.
    endif.
when 'ztest2'.
    if i_step = 2. "after the popup
      loop at i_t_var_range into loc_var_range
      where vnam = 'var1'.
        clear l_s_range.

        l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
        l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
        append l_s_range to e_t_range.

Error while creating Data Source for master data attributes

Hi BI Experts,
Well its been some time for me that I have been part of Extraction in BI.I primarily handled reporting in my last assignments.
I was trying extraction with flat files in SAP BI 7(new to sap bi 7 but very much familiar with BW3.5) but failed in the activity during master data attributes and text upload in infoobject (say IOSP_Mat).
Here is the procedure that I did after creation of characteristic IOSP_Mat.I created a source system for flat file followed by data source for Master data attributes, i selected all the parameters correctly.i.e. csv file format, data seperator as ,
and other settings, now when i am trying to look at the proposed data in the next tab using Load example data.its not showing the desired result.The columns that I have maintained in Flat File is MAT_NUMBER and MAT_NAME (with say 100 data in the file)
same is the result when I am trying to load the text data too columns maintained are
(LANGUAGE MAT_NUMBER Short Description)(same 100 data).
now i used to rsa1old transaction to upload the file using 3.5 version.i created info source for master data/text/hierarchies for IOSP_Mat
now when trying to upload it using info package for master and text data,I observe its(the data) not maintained in the characteristic IOSP_Mat.
When I monitored ,I figured the data has not been even uploaded to the PSA level.
Can you BI experts tell me the answer for this.
Thanks,
Srijith

apologies to all of you for late response,
was busy with some other activities.
I don't remember the exact message,but I remember it was not loaded to even the PSA level.I will try it again and post the exact message.
Thanks again for your quick response.
Once again sorry to all of you for my late response

Hallo,
just for information.
I had the same problem.
Have changed the field type from CURR to DEC and have set external instead of internal.
Then, the import with flatfile worked fine.
Thank you.

I'm running into the same issue, I did configure the Gateway and then the data source in Power Bi.
When I go to the Power BI Admin Center and click on "Test Connection" it seems to be working. But when I refresh the data from Power BI it doesn't work. Now if I edit the spreadsheet in excel and refresh the data in PowerPivot then it works. So
not sure why the solution doesn't refresh from the automated service in Power BI without this useless error.
Thanks
