Non-responsive filters in Query Designer

Good afternoon all,
We have upgraded to version 7 but are still using the 3x version for reporting.
We have noted that within the query designer when trying to place filters on certain characteristics e.g Wage Type, Pay Scale Group the report hangs for a long time before bringing back any values for selection. This only seems to be happening within the query designer, when the query is executed we are able to filter on variables with ease, yet these same objects within designer are non responsive.
I've searched on here and for any relevant notes but with no joy, any ideas?
I should also say that also after upgrade we had issues when selecting on these characteristics within the selection screen when running these queries and solved it by changing the Provider Specific Properties  Query Exec Filter to Value M Values in Master Data table.

Hello,
We have exactly the same problem. We also upgraded to 7.0 but are using 3.x functionality. Did you solve this problem?
Kind regards,
Bernd Evers

  • BEx query design: defining complex filters?

    Is it possible to define complex filters in a query definition? By complex I mean using logical operators (AND, OR, NOT)
    Example: report giving sales results
    I want to have
    (Customers from Germany <b> AND </b> product type A)
    <b> OR </b>
    (Customers from Romania <b> AND </b> product type B)
    If I define a standard filter:
    Customer country IN (DE,RO)
    Product type IN (A,B)
    I will obtain all combinations while I only want to have the couples {(DE,A),(RO,B)}.
    Thxs.
    LauQ

    Hide is just to remove the "object" from the display. It is used as an intermediate filter for the object that includes the logical combinations that one would like to get in the results.
    In my example:
    In the Query Designer:
    1. Define a structure (rows)
    2. right-click on it and make new selections corresponding with
    a) Country=Germany (:='DE')
    b) Country=Romania (:='RO')
    c) Material=A
    d) Material=B
    3. Right-click on each of them and "hide" them
    4. New formula in the structure:
    TEST:=(( 'DE' AND 'A' ) OR ( 'RO' AND 'B' ) )
    5. You need to edit the Cell definition and make use of the Help Cells (select therein the KF you need to display; e.g. "QUANTITY SOLD").
    6. "Play" with Cell definition and define a final KF such as:
    FINAL:='QUANTITY SOLD' * 'HELP'
    You need to try by yourself...

  • SSRS Column Chart Design Returning values in a format different from SSRS -SSAS Query Designer

    Hi All,
    I have an SSAS cube Measure Group with Multiple Measures that I am attempting to return on one SSRS report and reflect the 
    values using a ssrs column chart.
    My Measure Group (Patients).
    Measures:
    PatientsOnMeds
    PatientOnRelapse
    PatientsCounseld
    TotalNumberOfPatientsRegisterd
    NewlyRegisteredPatients
    HealthPersonelTrainef
    Demension:
    Time (Year) :filtered to 2012 & 2013
    In my SSRS query designer I have filtered the above Measures with Time Dimesion year 2012 & 2013
    and the data is returned as :
    Year |PatientsOnMeds|PatientOnRelapse|TotalNumberOfPatientsRegisterd|NewlyRegisteredPatients|
    2012 | 700          | 526            |  25                          | 456
    2013 | 245          | 245            |  15                          | 70
    Now the problem is when I return this data on the column Chart it's in messed up mesh
    On the chart Data:
    -Values :Measures
    -Series Group: Dimension
    The report values are returned in multiple columns for each value segmented by year i.e year 2012,Year 2013.
    I want a single column for each Measure (value) for each single year and The chart axis to reflect the measures(values) 
    instead of grouping values according to series group.
    instead the legend returns:
    -Year A -PatientsOnMeds
    -Year A -PatientOnRelapse
    -Year B -PatientsOnMeds
    -Year B -PatientOnRelapse
    I would like the legend to reflect on -Year A,Year B in color code that will be highlighted in the column values.
    Please point me in the right course if you can.Your insights are highly appreciated.Thank you in advance.

    Hi Charlie, 
    Thank you for your kind response. 
    In actual I want the legend to show:
    -2012
    -2013
    And the bottom axis to show:
    PatientsOnMeds
    PatientOnRelapse
    PatientsCounseld
    TotalNumberOfPatientsRegisterd
    NewlyRegisteredPatients
    HealthPersonelTrained
    Indicating in color code for Year 2012 and Year 2013.
    This the challenge that I am struggling with.I hope you understand my scenario.
    It aint easy.

  • Filtering a Query result for a specific value of a key figure

    Hi folks,
    I want to filter a query for a specific value of a key figure. The report should display all customer who has an account balance greater than EUR 500'000.
    Can I only implement this kind of filter via a condition in Query-Designer? If I run that query on an InfoCube with non-cumulative key figures over all our customers (> 400'000) I have problems with the consumption of the memory. If I restrict the amount of the customers to 50'000 - 60'000 then it works. It seems that the query reads all customer records in an internal table before applying the condition.
    Is there another way to deal with? Any help appreciated.
    Kind regards

    You could try to implement an alternative solution: define a new Characteristc with discrete values (in the following example I suppose to have intervals of 10)
    KF -> CHAR
    115 -> 110 (110 <= KF < 120)
      5 ->   0 (  0 <= KF <  10)
    83 ->  80 ( 80 <= KF <  90)
    Then you can use these dicrete values to filter ...
    I know that it's not so "flexible" (discetization must be predefined), but query response time is quicker and you can use Aggregates ...
    Hope it helps

  • Currency Conversion problem in query designer

    Hi,
    A requirement has come that infoobject which contain multiple currency type, need to convert into a single currency type in Bex reporting as user want to see only one currency value in report.
    There are three keyfigures refering different calenders for conversion. For examle . GR amount is based on GR date, IR amount is based on IR date and PO amount is based on Doc date. Query is build based on a infoset.
    I am doing following steps to achieve the task::
    1. In TCODE - RSCUR, created three Currency Conversion Type each for GR, IR and PO and each one refering different 0calday calender
    2. Defined exchange Rate Type as "M"
    3. Currency Tab -> Source Currency = "Source Currency from data Record"
        Target Currency -> Fixed Target Currency = "USD"
    4. Time Ref. Tab -> Fixed Time ref. = "Current Date"
        Variable time reference = "To the exact day"
        Special InfoObject = <InfoObject name>
    5. In query designer, Key figure property for GR amount -> Conversion -> Conversion type = <Name of Currency Conversion Type which defined in RSCUR>
    6. Repeated the same for IR Amount and PO Amount key figure
    While saving, getting following error::
    *Cannot apply Currency translation type <Currency type name> in Infocube <Infoset name>. *
    Diagnosis
    You tried to translate a query element with the currency translation type <Currency type name>. The translation type <Currency type name>, however, has variable time reference or variable target currency relevant to characteristic Document Date. Characteristic Document Date is also not available in InfoProvider <Infoset name> and it references either none or more than one characteristic () of the InfoProvider for Document Date, or Document Date is not a base characteristic.
    System Response
    Procedure
    Adjust the query definition or create a special currency translation type for one of the characteristics .
    Please help!
    Please note that there are three key figures which need conversion using different calenders.
    Sanjiv

    Hello,
    I have done the same what you said, but same error still showing.... 
    I also tried to change from "Special InfoObject" to Infoset level and it works with one KF. Since all three KF are under one Infoset and there is limitation that if Currency Conversion Type is defined on Infoset level then only one KF will be assigned for a Infoset where as I am using three KFs with three relevant time characteristic.
    Any suggesion from others?

  • Restrict Characteristic on value range in Query Designer

    Hi,
    In 3.5, it was possible to restrict a filter in the query designer on a value range, even if the start- and end values of that range did not exist in the master data.
    In 2004s, it is possible to restrict single value filters to a non-existing masterdata value. However, for value ranges, this does not seem to be the case. Do you know any workaround for this?
    Regards,
    Daniel

    of course, BI 7.0 support value range for restrict.Please kindly release more information about your case .
    Value Range
    • Instead of selecting single values you can quickly gather multiple characteristic values using this next option. This choice provides the following additional options:
    1. Between
    2. Greater than or equal to
    3. Less than or equal to
    4. Greater than
    5. Less than

    Hope you have done some groundwork you have done on this requirement. Have you tried to create New Formula and put the required formula in it to calculate Percentage of Quotation response ?
    Your formulas seems to be straight forward.
    Keep in Filter: item Not = L category =A  status =RFQ
    You may start working on it and get back with if you are struck.

  • Query Designer restricted key figures using a prompt value

    Hallo Experts,
    I would like to restrict key figures after user has beeen prompted to enter a date. I have 2 key figures:
    a) KF1, Date1
    b) KF2, Date2
    User should be prompted to select a specific date: e.g. 01/2011. After selecting/entering the prompted date value, it should be given to date objects for intance Date1=01/2011 and Date2=01/2011.
    How could I achieve it in Query Designer without using customer_exit function? Reason is that non-experienced users will use this report and they should not be confronted with complex query. Do you have any idea?  
    Many thanks
    Mamadu

    Hi,
    I assume that you need to restrict the value of keyfigures by date based on user input data on variable selection screen.
    First create one user input variable on your date field say for eg calday.
    Now restrict your KF1 with calday and choose that vairable which you created.
    For second KF2 which seems to me need to be restricted with offset of +1 based on the date entered by the user.
    So restrict this KF2 with calday and use the same variable with offset of +1
    I just misunderstood you ned calmonth or day because in requirement you have given month but you are calling it as date.
    If its month then replace calday with calmonth..
    Hope it helps.

  • Can't find the ODS in query designer

    Hi Gurus;
    I am using SAP_BW 30B. I just created an ODS but I can't find the ODS under the InfoArea menu in query designer. I am not sure if it is related but, I tried to check the box for BEx Reporting under ODS settings. When I save or activate the ODS again the check in the box disappears. I can view other ODSs that are previousy created and non of them have a check for BEx Reporting under settings.
    I tried to delete the entries in the ODS and try to check again but no difference.
    Need your help.
    Thanx a lot in advance;
    Duygu Sile

    HI,
    Select the option, Create new query when you create for the first time on the  ODS and after designing the query it will ask for the Infoprovider under which the query has to be saved,give the ODS name which you  have created.Later Your ODS will be visible while creating queries.
    Hope this helps..

  • Dump when trying to display characteristic values in QUERY DESIGNER

    Hi Experts,
    Life seems to become a struggle with 7.0 for me :-(.
    My current problem:
    If I try to display characteristic values  in Query Designer (left section of screnn, wthin dimensions) system dumps frequently.
    It's that kind of dump, that doen't help really (to my oponion)_
    What happened?
        The exception 'CX_RSR_X_MESSAGE' was raised, but it was not caught anywhere
         along
        the call hierarchy.
        Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not
        adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
         'CL_RSBOLAP_BICS_SERVICES======CP' has to be
        terminated.
    How to correct the error
        If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
        find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
        If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
        keywords:
        "UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION" "CX_RSR_X_MESSAGE"
