EVLCK in EVDRE

When i try open my Input schedule (contains EVLCK formula), in excel it give the value #RFR ...
If i do a REFRESH, the EVLCK works. But i dont want to do a manual REFRESH when my report opens.
I tried to insert the macro MNU_ETOOLS_REFRESH at the end of the code, but not working.
someone help me?

Hello,
   You can go on eToos->Workbook option and click on "Refresh workbook on workbook open". Inthis way each time you open the book it will be automatically refreshed.

  • Use evdre to query data from a SQL View

    Hi all
    I believe that it is possible to use evdre to query data from a SQL View. If this is possible then how does one go about setting it up in the evdre options (assuming that the view has already been created)?
    Regards,
    Byron

    Byron,  perhaps this is no longer supported, it might be worth opening up a case at service.sap.com on this.  However, I did find the following on Page 11 of the "Usages and Considerations of EVDRE" pdf file.  This doc is imbedded in the helpfile for BPC 7 SP5 (which was released in August of 2009, well after note 1315011 was last updated.
    It looks like you are limited to one custom view per application, since you have to name the view in a parameter at the APPLICATION level.  Go into BPC Administration, login to the application related to the custom view, choose "Set Application Parameters" and enter the name of the view to the Application Parameter called "EVDRE_QUERYVIEWNAME"  If it is not listed, go ahead and create it at the bottom of the Application parameter screen.
    Also:  I interpreted the following info from Page 10 of the same doc:
    In your EVDRE, set the following options:
    QueryEngine: MANUAL
    QueryType:  enter either NEXJ  OR TUPLE  see below:
    NEXJ  - Use two-dimensional queries using the nonemptycrossjoin function
    TUPLE  - Use two-dimensional queries using tuples"
    And I'm assuming you'd enter a Y for the following two parameters:
    QueryViewName
    "..to enforce the query engine to use a used-defined SQL view of the fact tables, when trying to read the values using SQL queries. This option is typically used in conjunction with the SQLOnly option (see below). "
    Option SQLOnly
    "..to enforce the query engine to only execute SQL queries, when reading data. This can be achieved using this option."

  • "evdre encountered a problem retrieving data from the webserver"

    Hi
    We are using a big report which takes very long time to expand and sometimes we get the error message "evdre encountered a problem retrieving data from the webserver" when expanding the report, but not very often for most of our users. But we have one user who gets this error message almost every second time he expands the report. This user have a computer with same capacity as the rest of us, can there be some setting on the computer or in the client installtion the cause this problem?
    We are using BPC 5.1 SP 5
    /Fredrik

    Hi,
    This error occurs usually if we have huge data in combination of our dimensions.
    Even, if the selection of your memberset is not apt to the combination of the data present in the back end, you may encounter a data retrival error.

  • BPC 7.5NW SP8 PERIODIC APP–EVDRE TOTALS USING YTD MEASURE ARE INCORRECT

    Hello u2013
    I have 4 application sets with periodic applications in which all measures are set up exactly the same in BPC 7.5 NW SP8. Time in each of the appsets includes months, quarters, seasons and year. Measures include Periodic, QTD, STD, YTD and Rolling12. All measures work correctly with the exception of one application in which the YTD measure is summing incorrectly. This issue exists in both the DEV and PROD environments for this application.
    The Time dimension is maintained using fiscal years. The fiscal yearu2019s months run from February -> January. Time uses the same setup in all 4 appsets.
    The following steps have been taken in an attempt to fix this issue:
    1.     Verified the Time dimension hierarchy and levels are set up correctly
    2.     Cleared client cache
    3.     Deleted Time dimension .xls, .xlt and .xml files from the BW and re-processed the dimension
    4.     Ran light and full optimizations
    5.     Verified the formula in the BW for this app is the same as the formula in the other apps
    6.     Refreshed client-side dimension files
    7.     Used the How-to-guide u201CHow to Maintain Measure Dimension for BPCu201D and verified the UJA_FORMULA_APP table and UJA_API_DATA_CHECKER function module are maintained automatically and no missing entry messages exist
    8.     Deleted the PARENTH1 hierarchy from the Time dimension, processed, added the hierarchy back into the member sheet and re-processed
    9.     Updated application description and modified application
    Has anyone else had this problem? Any assistance in resolving this issue will be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Carrie

  • MemberSet parametres in an EvDRE report/schedule (SAP BPC NW 7.5, SP03)

    Hi,
    I'm struggling combining MemberSet keywords and filtering values in an EvDRE schedule/report. The aim is to create an input schedule (or report) based on a hierarchy, but where a number of the dimension members are excluded (filtered). Below a brief, manipulated, expected result (bolded items are Parent nodes to members):
         ENTITY:1000
    Sales     (3,000.00)
    Sales     (3,000.00)
    COGS     1,800.00
    Cogs     1,800.00
    Royalties     300.00
    Revaluation of inventory     
    Gross Profit Reductions     300.00
    Gross Profit Sales     (900.00)
    I can easily generate a flat list of members, correctly filtered (but useless), and also a correct filtered report including the appropriate nodes (but with the parents sitting before the members) . The problem occur when trying to include ParentAfter, which only works together with either ALL or MEMBERS and when they are included, the filtering doesn't work!
    Any suggestings on how to compose a MemberSet string, where both ParentAfter and filtering works?
    Søren

    Hello,
    filter the memberset with LDEP(2),PARENTHAFTER,SELF.
    Is a bit old this post but I hope that could be useful for everyone searching the same information.

  • Evdre encountered an error while retrieving the data

    "evdre encountered an error while retrieving data" evdre addin
    evdre cannot retrieve data
    working on ms 7.0 bpc
    excel 2003
    i have gone thru the sap service place and found that i have to replace 2003 to 2007
    please let me know also if there is any possibility to change my reports in such a way that i may pass with out this error
    what is the mistake i am doing while i create the reports ?
    ur help is appreciated
    thanks

    This error message has many root cause.
    First let's check if the installation of BPC client is correct.
    Just use a simple EVDRE functions and try to expand.
    Are you receiving any error? If yes then I suggest to try also for Apshell ppset.
    If it is not working then that's means you have a problem with installation.
    If you can use EVDRE from another machine then the problem is installaytion of the client.
    If the problem is into all computers then the problem is into server.
    If the problem is just into one report then you have to review that report because some parameters sent to EVDRE are wrong otit is trying to retrievea region which is toobig.
    I hope this will help you toinvestigate the issue.

  • EvDRE Report with multiple columns

    Hi,
    I need to load Actual Sales data for that I am creating an input schedule using EvDRE. I created a 3x3 schedule. But while doing that I get the following error in A1.
    #ERR: Duplicate <dimension> on axis, col# 2
    I believe this is because Dimension in Expansion 1 (Quantity), 2 (Price) and 3 (Amount) are same i.e. Account.
    Kindly advise how can I load my data in the following format
    Time   Product     Entity        Account (Quantity)      Account (Price)     Account (Amount)
    Thanks
    Regards
    Pooja

    Hi Alwin,
    Let me give you some more details.
    I have created a normal EvDRE report. In Row I have Time, Product and Entity while in Row I have Account Dimension. Now since I want Quantity, Price and Amount (These are members of account Dimension) all three of them to be visible in three different columns. I need to put the right value in Member Selection for Column Expansion. So I tried putting ALL (since there are only 3 members). It didn't work. Then I tried specifying member list as 'Quantity, Price, Amount'. But even this gives error. I do not get EvRDE error (i.e. Error in A1 cell) while I get error when I try to expand. The error is as below:
    EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server.
    Please let me know if you want further details.
    Regards

  • EVDRE Expansion depending on Property of members

    Hi All,
    I am developing a report which will give me data for specific property of the members and at different levels. Let me explain it more... We have a dimension PROJ which has one property Bill_to. This property is set to child projects only. So now EvDRE should give me data if Bill_To = "X". I could get this working by putting the condition in MemberSet in Expansion range.
    Now, i want to populate the data depending on the hierarchy. Like, if i want to query for Level 0 member then it should only give me data rolled up to parent for ONLY those child members which have Bill_To property set to 'X'.
    Depending on the desired levels, i tried this condition in MemberSet: Bill_To = 'X' and HLevel = 1 (varies depending on the level). But it didnt work.
    I would really appreciate any help on this.
    Thanks,
    Mandar

    Thanks for the reply Nilanjan but it didnt work like i tried earlier. It gives me data for level 1 even for all the projects which doesnt have Bill_To property set.
    Let me explain it a little more... we have around 400 prjects of which many have different parents and they are at different levels of hierarchy. So i want to fetch the data like
    At Level 0 --> Only projects with Bill_To = 'X' (Rolling up to Parent Projects in Hierarchy)
    At Level 1 --> Only projects with Bill_To = 'X' (Rolling up to Parent Projects in Hierarchy)
    At Level 3 --> Only projects with Bill_To = 'X' (Rolling up to Parent Projects in Hierarchy)
    At Level 'BAS' --> Only projects with Bill_To = 'X' (i could get this data set by simply putting the condition in MemberSet.)
    Thanks Again,
    Mandar.

  • 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

  • Questions in EvDRE in BPC

    Dear Experts!
    I am new to BPC.
    Can any body help me in creating multiple EvDRE Grids. And i have amounts of year 2007 & Year 2008.
    How can i calculate Variance.
    And how can i connect multiple EvDRE grids one with another EvDRE grids.
    And how can i place Buttons and how can i assign task to these buttons.
    Please help in Customize EVDRE Grids.
    Thanks,
    Satish

    Hi,
    You can check the standard template for variance and based on that you can create your own EVDRE reports/schedules.
    Create 1X1 EVDRE report/schedule. Assign ACCOUNT to Rows and CATEGORY to Columns. Restrict Category and Account to SELF for expansion. Add a new column and use Time offset EV function to refer a different year. Now create another column and name it as variance. Use normal excel to calculate the difference and save the template.
    Placing buttons are same as Excel ones. Use FORMS menu in standard excel and assign macros to that Button by right clicking to it.

  • 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.

  • Tallying Trial Balance in BPC EVDRE

    Hello Experts,
    We are on SAP BO BPC 7.5 NW, SP07.
    We have uploaded the Trial Balance directly from BI Infocube. In the transformation file, CREDITPOSITIVE=YES, therefore, in the backend BI signs remain as they are in SAP ECC but in EVDRE all credits (LEQ and INC) are positive, which is ok.
    Now, when i run EVDRE for P/L items there is a balance is say INR 100 (FLOW=F_999) which is profit for the period. Similarly, when I run EVDRE for B/S items there is a balance of INR -100 (FLOW=F_999), therefore, overall TB balance is zero. When we upload data through BI, due to Default logic F_RES gets updated with INR -100. This is where the problem arises, if I see TB with F_999 and F_RES, I get a diff of INR -100. I am confused, if this correct. Kindly help remove my confusion. Secondly, should F_RES get updated with only I_NONE or with all Inter-company transations? I have commented I_NONE in the script logic below.
    Thanks for all your help.
    Below in my Default logic file
    // Calculating 10080 -  F_RES: Net income of the period in the balance sheet
    // Information: [XDIM_MEMBERSET FLOW=<xx>] is mandatory in the default logic
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET FLOW=F_RES
    // F_RES must be included in order to enable difference calculation
    //*XDIM_MEMBERSET IntCo=I_NONE
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET Groups=NON_GROUP
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET C_ACCT<>10080
    *XDIM_MEMBERSET FLOW<>F_RES
    // Excludes flow F_RES and account 10080 from the source data region
    *WHEN C_ACCT.ACCTYPE
      *IS "INC"
      *REC(FACTOR=1,C_ACCT="10080",FLOW="F_RES")
      *ELSE
      *WHEN C_ACCT.ACCTYPE
      *IS "EXP"
    *REC(FACTOR=1,C_ACCT="10080",FLOW="F_RES")
    *ENDWHEN
    *ENDWHEN
    *COMMIT

    Hi Rajat,
    This is normal based on your description. Without updating your retained earnings with the total income statement value (100 in your case) the total trial balance will be 0. As soon as you update ret/ear your total TB will be out of balance by 100 as you describe.
    This is not a problem. Either you look at your balance sheet which would be 0, or you look at your total TB excluding the ret/ear account, this will also be 0.
    Tom.

  • EPM and EVDRE sorting changed in BPC 10

    We feel that the expand function on base level (BAS) in both EPM and EVDRE have been changed from 7.5 to BPC 10. It is the sorting of members that we feel is wrong. It is not expanding on the order of the dimension but on what hierarchy level order the member has. This will render in strange sort order of the members. We got this answer from the support on this:
    “By product design, I would like to confirm the changing of Member order for BAS Key of in BPC 10 (within EPM-Addin), comparing to 7.5 version for an EVDRE report. In version 7.5, the members are retrieved in the order of the dimension whereas in version 10, the members are retrieved by hierarchy level order (refer to the attached document "What's News" in PDF format, on the section page 11). By the way, you can change the default member order to ascending in version 10, please follow the steps below:
    1.       Click Edit Report and click the Dimension where the members need to be reordered to bring up the Member Selector window.
    2.       Click the Member Sorting & Grouping button and check the box next to Enable Member Sorting and click OK twice.
    After these steps, the members should be in ascending order.”
    This is actually not helping at all. It is then sorted based on numerical and alphabetical order. This is not good! Is there actually a need for sorting like this when you do it on a base level?
    To explain what we would like to have then:
    We would like it to sort as the expansion on “Descendants” (EPM) “ALL” (EVDRE) except for the calculated members which should be excluded.
    Is there anyone else that feels the same as we do?

    Hi Shrikant,
    I posted an idea to SAP and got this answer. We have SP 19 so I will test it when we get the new version:

  • Issue with EVDRE migration

    Dear BPC Experts,
    We are migrating our environment from BPC 7.5 to BPC 10.
    We are in process of migrating our report, however, we have observed that post migration the changes/modification perform on the migrated report are not saved on the server folder with same file name (overwrite).
    Hence, we have to save the report/input form with different name, each time we make any modification to it and then only changes are saved.
    For example, after migration first we make changes to formatting and saved the report and close it. After that we find that 1 formatting style is missing, so we open the same report and do the changes and save it. The changes performed 2nd time are not available when we open that report from server folder.
    However, changes are available if we store the file with different name. The changes we perform 1st time and 2nd time, both are available.
    We are on SP 14 Patch 3 of EPM Add-in.
    Your help is highly appreciated.
    BR,
    Ashwin.

    Hi Ashwin,
    You may open a new folder on "server root folder" and save your new files there. After migrating each report you can upload there and change your old folder name as (Backup,etc) and change your new folder name with the old one. Thats how i solved this issue.
    Also you need to migrate from here:EPM>MORE>EVDRE MIGRATION for each report.

    Any quick clues to resolve would be much appreciated
    Thanks
    Muthu Ranganathan

    This question is answered. The issue is that there was a mismatch between the facttable and the member table
    By running this query, for each dimension was able to figure out if there was differences. There were some members created in keyfigure that were not accurate, probably created due to some script logic.
    Select * from tblfactBVP where KEYFIGURE not in (select ID from mbrKEYFIGURE)
    Posted for the benefit of anyone else coming across the same issue
