How to use rounded values in BEx Formulas

Hello,
I have the following question. Is it possible to use rounded values up to a certain # of decimal points in BEx Formulas?
I have the following problem.
Consider this:
keyfigure val 1 = 0.416666667
keyfigure val 2 = 72
val 3 (BEx Formula) = val 2 / val 1 = 172.799999862
However, what I need to do is this.
val 1 & val 3 should rounded up to 2 decimal points. So, I really need the report to show this:
val1 = 0.42
val2 - 72
val 3 = val 2 /val 1 = 171.43
I changed the number of decimal places on val 1 and val3 to be 0.00. However, it appears that these rounded values are not taken into account in the Formulas, as if the OLAP still uses the original values from the backend with 9 decimal points. So, no matter how many decimal points I use on the Display tab for a key figure, my val3 or result of my formula is always taking into account the 9 digit decimal values, not rounded values that I want. So in the example above, my val 3 comes to 172.80, which it should be 171.43 instead of you use the rounded values in the calculation.
Please let me know if there is any workaround where I could force my BEx Formula to utilize the rounded values and not actual values from the backend DSO. Or any other solution.
Thank you

If you create a Formula in BEx Query Designer like the one below, it works:
val3 = val2 / ( TRUNC ( ( val1 * 100 + 0.5 ) ) / 100 )
The TRUNC function (among other things) actually ensures that your formula takes into account the rounded values that you want.

How to use cumulative Value in a formula

Hello Gurus,
I would like to use the cumulative value in a query as part of a formula calculation. I have created a KF which is assigned a constant value 1. When displaying the KF I am cumulating it so for each row I am getting 1,2,3,4...etc. How can I use this cumulated value in a formula calculation?
For example, in a column cumulative count is 1,2,3,4...etc .My requirement is ,i want to identify the record with number 36 , to do this i have created a formula with boolean Equal to function comparing with the required number, but the boolean result what am i getting is Zero instead of one(1).
The reason i found behind the problem is, the cumulative count that we see is dynamically happening during the run time for display ,but the internal value is 1 only.
Is there any other way to meet this requirement or am i missing anypoint?.
Thanks.

Dear Yaseen,
To get the value in formula cumulative,after you have created the formula for that particular key figure,go to edit and click on tab "calculations".
In that select overall result as 'count all values not equal to zero' and single result as 'count all values not equal to zero' .
And mark the cumulative check box underneath.
I hope you get the desired result and please do me favour .

Hi,
If you want to read the value of profit center using keyword ATRV then you need to input values of parameters CC and CA.
Now the first line that you have written, to derive PC based on CC and CA
PC = ATRV('0PROFIT_CTR',CC,CA).
[code}
here CC value is not determined at runtime ; I mean what will be the value of CC when this line is executed. This line is not inside any foreach loop nor you are reading the value of CC using any variable.
if you want to use PC in first FOREACH CCODE,FP,CR,CA,GL,PO,PC. loop then CC value have to be present.
Put ATRV code inside a loop where CC and CA values are read.
Thanks

How to use Round off function in TAX Formula

Dear All,
         I have to do Round off in the Tax Formula. Hence I was suggested by the SAP Forum Team to use Round off function in the Tax Formulae.
         But sir I don't know how to use Round off function in the Tax Formulae.
        For Eg. BaseAmt = Total
                    TaxAmt = BaseAmt * Rate
           Now within this Eg. How will i use the Round off function and where i will use it.
           Please guide me with example.
Regards
Hitesh Parsawala

Hi Hitesh,
you can do like this
Cess_ST_TaxAmt=Round(Cess_ST_BaseAmt*Cess_ST_Rate,0)
where you can introduce rounding function by choosing from dropdown available in Operation and by click on Insert.
It will post following in formulla window
Round (Number, Decimals as Number)
where in parameter you have to give 1.Number-which is to be round and 2.Decimals as Number-as per your requirement like by 2 decimal or 0 decimal
If required give me call,

How to use DFF value in BG_ABSENCE_DURATION Fast formula

Hi All,
I would like to know how can we use DFF values in BG_ABSENCE_DURATION fast formula.
Can we pass them as input values?
Also, when we use them as DATABASE ITEMS how does Fast Formula identifies them.
For example I have created a DFF value HALF_DAY that can take either "YES" nor "NO".
I tried to use that as input value but that didnt work, not sure if it is possible at all or not.
I also tried to use that as Data Base ITEM, as follows:-
IF (ABSENCES_HALF_DAY WAS DEFAULTED ) then
duration = 'FAILED'
invalid_msg = 'DFF not working'
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Avinash
but i am getting following error when i access SSHR
Formula BG_ABSENCE_DURATION: ORA-01403: no data found ORA-01403: no data found Cause: During the PL/SQL execution part, an Oracle error was detected. Action: Please refer to your system administrator.

Thanks Vigneswar and Avaneesh for your helpful comments,
Actually I want to retrive the DFF value that I pass while applying the Leave Request and not that already stored in the data base. I checked and found that the query you have mentioned is retriving the data from base tables.
select target.ATTRIBUTE6 -- Attrinute6 is database item ABSENCES_HALF_DAY+
from    per_absence_attendances                target,+
per_all_assignments_f                  ASSIGN+
WHERE   sysdate BETWEEN ASSIGN.effective_start_date+
AND ASSIGN.effective_end_date+
AND    ASSIGN.assignment_id                  = 647--&B2+
AND    ASSIGN.assignment_type                = 'E'+
AND    target.person_id                      = ASSIGN.person_id+
AND    target.absence_attendance_id =+
*(select max (absence_attendance_id)*
from   per_absence_attendances+
where person_id   = ASSIGN.person_id+
and    date_start <= sysdate+
I have only added folloing lines In my BG_ABSENCE_DURATION FF
DEFAULT FOR ABSENCES_HALF_DAY is 'XX'+
if (1 = 1) then+
duration = 'FAILED'+
invalid_msg = 'DFF not working: '+ABSENCES_HALF_DAY+
But evry time output is *"DFF not working : Yes"* no matter what the value I am passing while applying leave. This value "Yes" is stored in DFF attribute 6 for the test employee and I guess FF is retriving this value from DATABSE not from current transaction.
Could you please help how to retrive run time data.
Thanks,
Avinash

what do you think based on what SAP should know whether it has to do rounding or not?
Why should SAP not round if a rounding rule is entered?
when a human is converting the PR to a PO, then a warning message is issued, if the user then enters the old quantity again, SAP accepts it.
A background program cannot do such decisions, it has to rely on given master data.

How to use user variable in Member Formula

Hi All
I have to write a member formula for %linearity quarter for a weekly application.This member will be used in reports and we do not want to do this calculation in reports, hence need to write member formula. The formula is
Week1 of Q1 forecast / Q1 Total Forecast , Week2 of Q1 Forecast/ Q1 Forecast.............,Week15 of Q2 forecast/ Q2Total Forecast.......and so on.
According to me it should work in the below mentioned manner , but need help in improvising the formula.
If(@ismbr("Weeks1") or @ismbr("Weeks2") or @ismbr("Weeks3") or @ismbr("Weeks4") or @ismbr("Weeks5") or @ismbr("Weeks6") or @ismbr("Weeks7") or @ismbr("Weeks8") or @ismbr("Weeks9") or @ismbr("Weeks10") or @ismbr("Weeks11") or @ismbr("Weeks12") or @ismbr("Weeks13") or @ismbr("Weeks14") )
"Current_Forecast"/"Q1"->"Current_Forecast";......
If anybody can help in suggesting how can i use user variable in this formula to achieve the required result.
Thanks

Hi
Thanks for the suggestion and it would be a better idea to use ISIDESC as compared to ISMBR.
I also wanted to ask if in the below mentioned formula if the result of first line is true than will the second line pick the current_forecast value of the respective member of Q1 and divide it by the current_forecast value of Q1.
IF(@ISIDESC("Q1"))
"Current_Forecast"/"Q1"->"Current_Forecast";
Also i need to know how can i write a member formula for week YOY% using user variables.The general formula is
Week 1 of FY13 - Week 1 of FY12/Weeks 1 of FY12
Week 2 of FY13 - Week 2 of FY12/Weeks 2 of FY13 and so on till week 53.
Thanks
