Problem with variable in wad

Hello Guru's
i had a problem in WAD. we have report in which i have to create a variable for positing date so that the end user can give posting date and execute the report for that particular week. if i execute the BEX report it's working fine.where as if i execute the report in wad. i couldn't see the variable for posting date. it gives output directly. may i know what the problem.
Thanks
rad

For calling up the variable screen, in your template you can use
<SAP_BW_URL CMD='PROCESS_VARIABLES' SUBCMD='VARIABLE_SCREEN'>
This command allows you to call up the variables screen again for the current page.
Also, as Ajay mentioned you have to change the variable options to 'Mandatory: Initial value not allowed'.
Hope this helps.

Problem with Variable screen in WAD

Hi ,

Thanks,

Hi Abraham,
thsi could be a problem from the specisic setting of the infocube. Please check the BEx Settings from the infocube. You can find them by the following steps:
- search for the infocube
- doubleclick on the infocube
- choose an specific infoobjekt
- right mousebutton and click "specific dataprovider settings"
- check if the right entries are set
Hope this will help.

Problem with variables in formulas when using CrystalReportViewer

Post Author: Aksu
CA Forum: Formula
Hi! I have a problem with variables in Crystal Reports formulas, when using CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.CrystalReportViewer class from VS2005-project. ReportViewer always gives error:*************Crystal Report Windows Forms ViewerThis field name is not known.Details: errorKindError in File C:\{dir]}\{file}.rpt:Error in formula <mCustomerAttributes>.'Dim result As String'This field name is not known.Details: errorKind ************* Report without variables works fine with Viewer and in Crystal Reports Designer report with variables works also fine. I have tried with both "formula-syntaxes" - basic and crystal. But Viewer always gives error when trying to define new variable.I think the problem might be with CR -versions, because VS-project has formerly been designed to VS2003 and CR9 or 10. Now I'm using VS2005 and CR11. Though I have changed all references to new CrystalDecisions-asseblies (Ver.11.0.3300.0), when I debug the project and checkout the Viewers ReportSources FormatEngine Shows version CR9_2.... I have no idea where it gets this version...***************DEBUG-view when Viewer is created *******************CrystalReportViewer |_ ReportSourceClassFactoryName ... , Version=11.0.3300.0 , ... |_ ReportSource |_ FormatEngine {CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.FormatEngine} |_ ClientVersionHeader {CrystalDecisions.Shared.ReportServiceVersionHeader} |_ | version = 920 (int) |_ Static members |_ VER_CR9 = 920 (int)**************************************** Could anyone have any answers or tips for this problem? I'd really appreciate it... ---Aksu

Has anyone been able to answer this question?
I am having the same problem:
I am designing a report in Crystal Reports XI Developer that contains parameters, which are passed to a stored procedure and are also used within formulas ( in Crystal Syntax ie. {?FORMAT_ID} ) in the report itself.
I can run the report successfully in CRXI Developer. The formulas use the correct values from the parameters entered during execution and everything looks good.
I then deploy the report to Business Objects Enterprise XI. I do all of the things necessary to manage the report including setting up the proper database connection information and default parameter values.
When I run the report using the Crystal Report Viewer, I get the following error message:
Error in File Forecasting.rpt:
Error in formula <Report Format>.
'if (not isNull({?FORMAT_ID} ) ) then
This field name is not known.
Details: errorKind
This happens when I press the "Preview" button in the Manage Object dialog from Crystal or when I run the report using InfoView.
I have changed the formulas and it doesn't seem to matter what the specific content of the formula is; other than the existence of a parameter reference in the formula. If I comment out the parameter and replace it with a hard-coded value, it gets through the formula fine.
Does Business Objects Enterprise XI support crystal reports with parameter references in the formulas?
Thanks,
Tim H.

Problem with variable

Hi. I'm making a form for work for people to book places on
training courses. Having an annoying problem with variables that
i'm hoping has a simple solution. Any help with this will be much
appreciated.
All the info is held in an external text file which looks
like this (but much longer):
&totalcourses=2&
&course0=Please choose a course&
&course1=my course one&
&totaldates1=3&
&c1date0=Select a date...&
&c1date1=15 September 2006&
&c1time1=Time: 10:00 to 16:00&
&c1date2=23 January 2006&
&c1time2=Time: 11:00 to 16:00&
&c1date3=28 February 2007&
&c1time3=Time: 12:00 to 16:00&
&course2=my course 2&
&totaldates2=3&
&c2date0=Select a date...&
&c2date1=15 September 2006&
&c2time1=Time: 11:00 to 16:00&
&c2date2=08 January 2007&
&c2time2=Time: 9:00 to 16:00 &
&c2date3=15 February 2007
&c2time3=Time: 12:00 to 16:00&
The course titles are loaded into an array and then into a
combobox. When a course is chosen a second combobox loads the
relevant dates array for that course. When a date is chosen the
time is shown in a dynamic text box.
Problem is - if more than one course is on the same date it
will show the time for the latest course with that date. For
example - course 1 is on 15 sept at time 10:00 to 16:00, course 2
is also on 15 sept at time 11:00 to 16:00. When 15 Sept is chosen
for course one it displays the time for course 2 on this date -
presumably because it comes later in the text file.
I've attached the actionscript for this - Can anyone help me
sort this out??

Problem with Variable Client Support

Hello,
I work with Labview 8.5 and Crio 9014.
I have a problem with Variable Client Support. When I try to compile my project I have the following error:
"The Network Variable Engine and Variable Client Support must be installed on the RT target for this application to function properly..."
I have read that we have to install the Variable Client Support in Measurement and Automation by right-clicking on the software and then choosing add/remove software but I can't install the appropriate shared variable components because I can't see neither Network Variable Engine and Variable Client Support. So what can I do?
Can somebody help me?
Thanks

I have exactly the same problem. I wanted go through the "Getting Started with the LabVIEW RT module" and when I use wizard for generating new project I get same notification in my VI...
The Network Variable Engine and Variable Client Support must be installed on the RT target
for this application to function properly. If the Network Variable Engine is not supported on
the target (e.g. FP-2000 with <32MB of RAM), open the project and move the variable library
to My Computer in the project. Doing this will deploy the variables to localhost but
will still require that Variable Client Support be installed on the RT target.
Could someone help please ?

Localizing Analytics Web Catalog - problem with variables

I tried to localize strings in OBI EE Web Catalog. I exported those captions using catalog manager, translate messages in XML file and put them to \Web\Res\l_xx\Captions. It works quite good.
But there is problem with variables in Title. Replacement of variables STOP working :-( At the page is displayed for example: "@{biServer.variables['MaxDate']}". Variable replacemen works fine in narrative views.
Do you have some ideas?
Thanks.

We have the same problem with presentation variables in titles using externalize strings option, they stopped working after tranlation.
We tried with Oracle BI EE 10.1.3.2.1 and 10.1.3.3.3 with same result.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Problem with variable offset for 0CALMONTH

Hello Community,
I have a problem with using variables offset for time characteristic 0CALMONTH
Let's say my current query looks like this:
...................01.2006..........02.2006..........03.2006   (0CALMONTH)
Sales ..............100..................125................200   (Keyfigure)
What I want do now is to add a previous year comparison. So that it should look this way:
...................01.2006..........02.2006..........03.2006   (0CALMONTH)
Sales ..............100..................125................200   (selected months)
LY_Sales...........50..................100................100   (selected months - 12)
(LY_Sales should show figures of 01.2005, 02.2005 and 03.2006 in this example)
I used new selection for LY_Sales with variable offset for 0CALMONTH -12 but that didn't work. Figures in second line are zero. The desired figures would show up (if I expand the selected time intervall wide enough) in 01.2005, 02.2005 and 03.2005 but that's of course not what I want.
Please help if you can!
Regards,
Ulrich

Hi,
We can get an an other way by using CELL editor caoncept.
First create teh query like this:
...................01.2006..........02.2006........12.2006.....01.2005...02.20005...12.2005 Sales ..............100................125..............200.............50...........100.........100
Sales ..............100................125..............200.............50...........100.........100
Then hide the 2005 years' kf:
...................01.2006..........02.2006........12.2006
Sales ..............100................125..............200
Sales ..............100................125..............200
Though the call editor concept overwrite the second rows(selection) content with hidden columns of second row(selection) one by one .i.e first cell of 2nd row will be overwritten by 13 th cell of second column.similarly second cell of 2nd row will be overwritten by 14 th cell of second column........
First row(selection) : Cal year Charactertic with restriction 2006.
second row(selection) : Cal year Charactertic with restriction 2005.

Problem with variable name in ZXRSRTOP include (virtual KF)

Hi all,
I am coding a routine to use a virtual key figure in the BEx.
I have just a little problem with the name of a variable:
as explained in the documentation, I created the variable with the prefix G_POS_, the name of the infocube and the name of the infoobject all together:
DATA: G_POS_BC_ST_003_C_DIV__C_COMPAR type i.
The problem is that this variable name is longer than 30 characters, so the system doesn't accept it.
Is there a workaround, other than changing the name of the infoobject (which is a navigational attribute)?
Any help would be appreciated.
Loï

Hello Marc,
I understand that I have to use a concatenate function and a dynamic call of the variable with (variable) instruction, but i do not understand how to implement it.
the infocube name is BC_ST_003
the characterisdtic name is C_DIV__COMPAR
So, in the include ZXRSRTOP the statement
DATA : G_POS_BC_ST_003_C_DIV__COMPAR
does not work due a length problem (see first post)
But in the same include the statement
+DATA: l_global_name type c.
concatenate 'GPOS' 'BC_ST_003' 'C_DIV__C_COMPAR' into l_global_name separated by '_'.+
drives to the following error : statement is not accessible.
Could u please provide me with an example of the code in the include ZXRSRTOP, and in the include ZXRSRZZZ for the use of this variable.
Thanks in advance.

Problem with Variable Entry Screen

Hello All,
We upgraded our development systems to NW2004s and came across the following issue:
All our Bex queries have restricted time characteristics with variables entries. When we execute a query it should pop-up the variable selection screen for us to enter the restriction values but the query is ignoring Variable restriction screen and taking into consideration everything. The same query works fine in Prod., which is still in 3.1.
Did anyone come across this situation kind of situation? It did not pop-up any type of error and we are in SPS10

Problem with Variable 0I_CUFQU

Hi all,
We are using Fiscal year/ Period with variable SAP Exit 0I_CUFQU in FIGL_V11 reports.
Earlier It was working fine but after Patch Upgrade when I run the same report I am getting the Follwing error.
Variable 0I_CUFQU could not be replaced.
If anyone knows the answer please share the solution for the same.
Regards,
Ali.

Hi Ali,
All these variables use sap exit varaible 0P_FVAEX for thier internal calculation. this is a program error and cen be resolved by SAP note 1322757.
The following SAP exit variables for BW queries may be affected by the error (the technical names for the variables):
0P_PRFP1, 0P_PRFP2, 0I_CUFYE, 0I_PRFYE, 0I_CUFQU, 0I_PRFQU,
0I_PRFY2, 0F_CUFPE, 0F_FPER, 0I_P2FQ0, 0I_P3FQU
This note will correct the program error.
Let me know if this works.
Thanks,
Amit

Problem with variable refresh in WAD

Hi Experts,
I have a query in which currency and cal quarter are the variables. The cal quarter is populated using a customer exit to have the current quarter. I have built a webtemplate on this query. Now the problem is:When I run the webtemplate and try to change the currency value (for example EUR to CAD) and select show all values for the cal quarter, i see that the cal quarter is being reset to the default value i.e (current quarter). When i pass a value (say 2.2008) to the cal quarter in the variable screen or in the characteristic restictions in the webtemplate and try to change the currency in the currency drop down, the cal quarter remains same (2.2008) and the keyfigures are displayed with the selected currency.
Could you provide some inputs so that the cal quarter value is not reset upon selection of "show all values" in the variable screen/drop down and change in currency.
P.S. No changes at query level are allowed and both query and webtemplate are in 7.0
Regards,
Naveen.

HI Naveen,
WHere is the customerr Exit of the calquarter used in teh Query. is it in the Filter section or in teh Default values section.
If the customer Exit variable is used in teh filter section , you will not be able to see data other than the value returned by the customer exit.
Regrads.

Hierarchies displayed with variable (IP & WAD)

Dear Experts.
We are having difficulties in defining value restrictions for (2) hierarchy variables. Unexecptionally all available hierarchies are showing with the hierarchy variables for a given characteristic.
Objective: We are currently building web layouts for planning (with 2 queries per tab page). Now, 2 different hierarchy variables, one for Input and one for Display of queries, are supposed to restrict the listed char. value (rows). We are looking at two sets of hierarchies about 5 each (in total there is about 30 hierarchies on this characteristic).
Background: Within BW-BPS's Web App Builder one had previously an option to use so called "Packages Selection" where planning packages from BPS0 could be defined with different hierarchies underneath a given planning level. Thereby the effect of having filtered a hierarchy selection could be achieved.
Wonder whether there is a way to solve this with the Integrated Planning tools set (QD, WAD)!?
Thanks in advance.
Frank

Hi Marc,
Thanks for replying,
Problem is i need to do some calculations in FM and call this FM using formula type planning function.in that FM i used RSDRI API to write data to cube(is there any way i can write to buffer or display calculated values in input ready query??).
So when i use custom planning function button..it writes data to cube and then if i want it to displayed again as it is not in buffer i used save_web_template standard button, which will show values but not in planning mode(and it gives warning infoprovider is locked).so my input ready is lost.
is there any work around. or is there any way to refresh from the request.
Please provide your inputs for the needful.
Thanks
R'Man.
