Problems with Input Ready Query

Hello All,
I'm facing problems with input ready query for BI IP.
I've created the input query on aggregation level and maintianed all the planning settings. It is not allowing me to edit, when i'm attaching in the web template.
I also attached a button copy function, and i'm able to execute it and save it, but it not allowing me to change manually.
I also enabled the 3rd option for keyfigures...data can be changed with planning functions and user input.
Please help me in this regard.
We have just started the development of BI-IP, please suggest me if there are any notes to be applied.
Regards
Kumar

Hello Johannes,
Yes I've set to the finest granularity...even if it is Only one characteristic and one key figure without any restrictions...
I've checked even planning tab page under properties...it is also fine..
But still it is not allaowing me to go to edit mode...this is a fresh instalation and the query i'm working is the first one...
Please suggest me if there are any notes to be applied, we are on Support Pack 10.

Problem with input ready query with structure in Rows

Hi,
First I have created an input ready query without a structure where I have GL accounts in rows and key figures in column. It works and I can see that the cells are ready for input when I launch it in web through query designer.
Later, I am replacing the GL accounts in rows with a structure. Each line in the structure is combination of GL acctUoMChart of Acct (all restrcited to single values). Here comes the issue. When I run the query again (launching thru query designer) it dumps. Any idea?
Also, please let me know whether the planning applications can be made using BEX analyser OR WAD ?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
SSC

Hi,
Can you check ST22 for the dump analysis.
Also, planning applications can be built using BEx analyzer or WAD.
Check this link for example and step-by-step procedure to do the same.

Issue with Input Ready Query in Integrated Planning.

Hello Everyone,
I've been working on Integrated Planning for some time now. My company recently started using a new server for this work. I find that I am unable to make the queries "input ready". Though I edited the properties of the key figure to "accept user entered values" and chose the option to "start query in change mode", when I execute the query, I find that it the values for the Key Figure cannot be changed. I tried to search in the OSS for any note(s) regarding this issue, but was unable to come up with a solution. Is the problem related to the server or is there some other configuration that I should take care of? Additionally, I would also like to know if there is any method to debug such a problem. I would appreciate it if someone could help me out in this regard.
Thanks,
Jake.

Hi,
Please verify the following.
1. Check if the underlying realtime cube is in "Planning Mode:Loading not allowed" state in rsa1
2. If you have created an aggregation level, Check if the most detailed information is available at that Aggregation Level(i.e, include characteristics so that the record can be uniquely identified at that aggregation level).Best would be to include all characteristics and create a query first and ensure it works.Then remove unwanted charecteristics one by one, so that you can fix the issue.Best thing to start with is to create the aggregation level on top the real time cube itself.
3. Check for any characteristic restrictions been defined for the real-time cubes.If so, try removing them temporarily and execute the query
4.Also check if any data slices has been created on the real time cube. If so, try removing it temporarily and then execute the query.
5. Set the property for Planning "Start query in Change Mode"- this is for th Query
6. Set the 'Key Figure' Planning Property to "Can be changed Manually or via Planning Functions" for the appropriate KeyFigures- this is for the key figures
7. Try removing the currency/unit from row/column. Try restricting them in filters rather than in row/columns.
8. Check if there are any locks occurring due to filter., i.e if you are using a filter and even if 1 record of this selection locks with another user's selection you lose the input readiness.
Mostly this should fix the issue. Assign points if this info helps you.
Thanks,
Balaji.

Currency in Rows - problem with Input Ready Rows

Hi,
Im facing a problem when Im trying to transfer values to the planning buffer with Currency put in rows.
I cannot restrict on Currency because the users plans in Transactional Currency and it various across.
The new row which I have entered has Currency field in rows for which I entered USD and entered the amount as 100 and selected transfer values from context menu. The system displays error message that the entered values are incorrect and correct it before navigation.
As a workaround, if there is another Keyfigure lets say Quantity in the rows, then after entering some values against it as 1 or 10 and now transfer the value, the values gets transfered to the planning buffer and the Amount field now is 0.0$. Now I can make the quantity as 0 and enter the Amount and save the data.
How to transfer the values to the planning buffer along with Currency?
Regards
Syam

Yes, this is in excel. The error that i get is :
Diagnosis
You have specified plan values; at least one of these plan values is invalid.
System Response
The system provides a description of the invalid value(s). Navigation is not permitted until all plan values are valid.
Procedure:
Correct the plan values entered.
One thin that I have observed is, had i restricted currency to a single value in the filter and then enter a value for amunt in the new row, it was able to transfer values to the buffer.
Just wann to know is this the standard behaviour?

WAD input ready query with new blank rows

Hi all,
İ need to make an input ready query in wad with new blank rows under report.
in mu query i can see posted values where i need blank rows as well.
i have set number of new rows in analysis item.
what else i should do.
when i run my query, it gives warning that i have no columns that i can enter manually.
Any help?
thanks

Hi,
A few points that you should check:
1) Whether all characteristics of the Aggregation level are restricted to one single value except for characteristics included in the rows;
2) Whether all the characteristics included in the rows are displayed with the Key (with or without text);
3) If you have a Unit characteristic in the row, it still has to be restricted to a single value in the filter.
These are some of the typical reasons why I have encountered the same problem!

Is it possible to create input ready query with free characteristics ?

Hi All,
Is it possible to include characteristics restricted with variables in free charatceristics panel to make input ready query?
I am trying to create input ready query with above practice but unable to make query as input ready.
I have created input ready query on aggregation level. If I include characteristics restricted with variables in rows or filter then it is working fine. .ie. I am able to input entries at runtime of query.
Kindly help me out to find the solution as I have to include characteristics in free characteristics panel.

Hi Tilak,
Thanks for reply.
As per my knowledge, Every characteristics which is included at aggregation level should be included in either rows or filter level in query designer.
But as per my business requirement I have to include the characteristics restricted with variables( in default values only) in free characteristics. But the problem is if I do so the query runs in display mode not in input mode.
So kindly help me if you have any solution for above scenario.

Input ready query input help problem (F4 help)

Dear All,
We are using NW2004s with SP9.
We have created an aggregation level with 0MAT_SALES, 0SALESORG, 0DISTR_CHAN (0SALESORG and 0DISTR_CHAN are compound characteristics of 0MAT_SALES) characteristics (and other char. as well). We have a Filter where we added the above mentioned characteristics and a navigational attribute of 0MAT_SALES (0MAT_SALES_NAV_ATT)
We set the follwing filter values:
0SALESORG = AT01
0DISTR_CHAN = 01
0MAT_SALES_NAV_ATT = P
0MAT_SALES = nothing but we set the 'Can be changed at execution' flag in the modeler.
We have an input ready query on the above mentioned aggregation level. We are using 0MAT_SALES as free characteristic and we set 'Only posted values' on the extended tab.
Our 1. problem is that when we want to enter new rows into the Query and get input help (F4 on the input ready cell) to select 0MAT_SALES we get all 0MAT_SALES values and <u>not</u> only that ones which has 0SALESORG and 0DISTR_CHAN values set in the filter.
Our 2. problem is that 0MAT_SALES_NAV_ATT = P is not taken into consideration during query execution and we also get all materials.
Any help?
Thanks in Advance,
Dezso

Dezso,
We looked into using Navigational Attributes in SP7 and found that Input Queries were unable to process them. Unless there has been some specific enhancements I do not believe that anything has changed here.
I recommend raising an OSS and getting clarification from Waldorf. The SAP Help page on input queries in IP also provides some clarification in this respect.
Hope this helps.

Problem when Entering Decimal Values at Input Ready Query

Hi Everyone,
I have created Input ready query but when I am going to enter decimal values in input cell it takes as a round of value.
Example:- If I enter 1.234 value at input cell it takes as a 1 or if I enter 1.789 value then it takes as a 2 at cell.
The technical properties of Key Figure at Info object level is,
Radio Button :- Decimal
Drop Down :- FLTP (Floating Point)
But we want to whatever value will enter at input cell, the same value will save at real time info cube level.
Requirement :- If I enter 1.234 value at input cell it needs to take as a 1.234
Please suggest your comments/views.
Thanks

Input ready query with free characteristics

Hi All,
Is it possible to include characteristics restricted with variables in free charatceristics panel to make input ready query?
I am trying to create input ready query with above practice but unable to make query as input ready.
If I include characteristics restricted with variables in rows or filter then it is working fine. .ie. I am able to input entries at runtime of query.
Kindly help me out to find the solution as I have to include characteristics in free characteristics panel.

Hi,
Any cell in an input query can only be input ready if it corresponds to only one value of each characteristic in the underlying aggregation level. If you have free characteristics in your input query, you will need to restrict them to single value at query runtime to make the query input-ready. Note that putting a characteristic in rows automatically restricts it to one value.

Input ready query with default data

hi expert
How do I make input ready query to have a default value when signing in using WAD?
thanks.

Hi,
Use the following document for your query. If found useful do grant me number!
Revaluating Planning Functions (with Analysis Web Item)
Use
You want to build a planning application with which you can enter turnover amounts for certain account numbers and revaluate them using a factor that can be set. If you select a row of the table, only the amount in this row is to be revaluated. If you do not select any rows, all values are to be revaluated. The planning application is to look roughly as follows on execution:
This example serves in particular to clarify the interaction between a planning function and an Analysis Web item. Special properties here are:
●      Variable handling in the planning function
●      Row selection in the Analysis Web item
Prerequisites
In the planning modeler, you have created an aggregation level that contains the following InfoObjects: unit Currency Key, time characteristics Quarter and Calendar Year, key figure Amount, characteristics Version, Account Number, Cost Center.
The planning function and the query are to use the same data of this aggregation level.
Procedure
Planning Modeler: Creating Planning Functions, Variables, and Filters
       1.      Choose the Planning Functions tab page and create a planning function of the type Revaluate with technical name REVALUATE and description Revaluate for your aggregation level.
       2.      On the To the Parameters tab page, use the input help for the revaluation factor to create the REVAL_FACTOR variable with the Revaluation Factor description. The variable is to be specified in detail as follows: The variable is to be a required variable and is to be input ready; it is to be of type Number, but is not to contain a standard default value.
       3.      Choose the Filter tab page and create a filter with technical name ACCOUNT_FILT and description Revaluation Selection for your aggregation level.
Select the characteristics one after another and choose the input help icon in the column after Characteristic Restrictions. The dialog box for specifying characteristic restriction appears. Specify the required restrictions (in our example, Version = VERSION 1, Quarter = QUARTER 1, Calendar Year = 2007; Cost Center = 100002, Currency = Euro; for Account Number, all values are taken over), choose Add, and save the selections by clicking OK.
Choose Show Extended Settings and ensure that the Version characteristic cannot be changed on execution. (It must be possible to change the Amount key figure).
More information about creating planning functions, variables, and filters: Modeling Planning Scenarios
BEx Query Designer: Creating Queries
       1.      In the BEx Query Designer, create a query Revaluate (technical name: QUERY_REVALUATION) for your aggregation level.
       2.      Drag and drop the ACCOUNT_FILT filter into the Characteristic Restrictions area for filter values. In doing so, all characteristics are restricted to single values.
Drag and drop the Account Number characteristic into the area for default values.
       3.      Specify that the Account Number characteristic is in the rows. The values for this come from the master data.
Specify that the Amount key figure is in the columns. The values for this can be changed; on the Planning tab page, choose the Data Can be Changed Using User Input or Planning Functions option.
       4.      Save your query definition.
BEx Web Application Designer: Creating Web Templates
       1.      In the BEx Web Application Designer, create a Web template with technical name REVALUATION.
       2.      Create the following data providers:
○       DP_PLAN_DATA of the type Query View Data Provider, based on query QUERY_REVALUATION
○       DP_FILT_REVALUATION_FUNCTION of the type Filter. The data binding should come from the ACCOUNT_FILT filter.
       3.      Create the following Web items:
○       INPUT_FIELD_REVALUATION_FACTOR. Specify 10 as the default value (Internal Display ® Text: 10).
○       BUTTON_GROUP_ REVALUATION. Using Internal Display, create pushbutton1 with label Revaluation and, as Action, use the command wizard to assign the following commands (INSTRUCTION):
Table of Commands
Command
Parameters
Data provider-specific command: SET_SELECTION_STATE BY BINDING (Set Filter Values According to Different Sources)
●      Command target: target data provider DP_FILT_REVALUATION_FUNCTION
●      Data binding: selection binding using the Account Number (ZD_ACCNT) characteristic, where the value of the Web Item Selection binding type is to come from the ANALYSIS_ITEM_1 Web item, characteristic Account Number (ZD_ACCNT).
Planning-specific command EXEC_PLANNING_FUNCTION_SIMPLE (Execute Planning Function )
●      Data binding: Reference to data providers of type Filter DP_FILT_REVALUATE_FUNCTION, where the value from variable REVAL_FACTOR of connection type Web Item with Manual Input (ITEM_INPUT) is to come from INPUT_FIELD_REVALUATION_FACTOR.
●      Command-specific parameter: planning function REVALUATE
○       ANALYSIS_ITEM_1. Data provider DP_PLAN_DATA is assigned to the analysis grid as the (source) data provider.
Choose Behavior ® Row Selection ® Multiple (MULTIPLE).
In this case, it must be possible to select multiple rows and to execute the revaluation command on all selected rows. It is not therefore possible to give the command along with the row selection; the command must instead be given using pushbuttons.
       4.      Create a CONTAINER_LAYOUT_ITEM_1 (Web Items ® Enhanced ® Container).
Divide the container into columns, choose the With Tray display option, and enter label Revaluation under Tray Settings.
Add the following Web items to the container:
○       1st row, 1st column: INPUT_FIELD_REVALUATION_FACTOR
1st row, 2nd column BUTTON_GROUP_ REVALUATION
○       2nd row, 1st column (with option Colspan=2, that is, with a merge of columns 1 and 2): ANALYSIS_ITEM_1
The following figure illustrates the layout of the REVALUATION Web template:
Execution on the Web
       1.      Execute the Web template on the Web.
       2.      For testing, extend the URL to include parameter &debug=X.
If you have set this parameter, the selection is shown in the Executing Planning Function section.
       3.      Enter amounts for one or more account numbers, change the revaluation factor if necessary (default value = 10), select the required rows, and choose Revaluation.
For example, enter amount 100 in the first row, retain revaluation factor 10, and choose Revaluation. The query outputs an amount of 110 in both the selected row as well as in the overall result (as long as you have not entered any other values).

How to create an Input Ready Query in Bex Excel with no transact data

Hi
We created a query where we want the user to put in NEW LINES. This query has in general no data when user starts planning.
We have 2 front-ends for this, Bex Web and Excel. Both shows initial 'no data available
BexWeb': Implementing the command set_data_entry_mode we get all the relevant columns for the input
Excel: Command set_data_entry_mode or set_input_mode does not allow the users to insert new lines. Still error message pops up 'no data available'
Do you have a solution for that ?
Regards,
Thomas

Hi Gregor,
In the note 1149346 that you have mentioned, it says -
You must start the input-ready query in change mode.
BEx Analyzer: In the properties of the analysis grid, the switch
"Suppress new rows" must not be set. Furthermore,
the switch "Allow entry of plant values"
must be set in the local query properties.
I have not seen this setting Allow entry of plant values in a query - can you tell what is refers to?

Can not change data in Input Ready Query

All,
I have created an input ready query on an aggreagation level which has one transactional cube underlying it however, after run the query I am unable to change data in the cells even though I get a warning message saying query is ready for input
Note:
1. The underlying realtime cube is in "Planning Mode:Loading not allowed" state in rsa1
2. I tried including all characteristics so that the record can be uniquely identified at that aggregation level).
3. I am not using any characteristic restrictions
4. I have not set any data slices
5. I have set the property for Planning "Start query in Change Mode"
6. I have set the 'Key Figure' Planning Properties to "Can be changed Manually or via Planning Functions" for the key figures
7. I do not have currency/unit in row/column.
8. There are any locks occurring
Any pointers welcome.
Thanks,
Milind

Hi Milind,
Was wondering how was your problem solved. I get the same message when I run the query in web from query designer and in bex analyzer the cells are not updated with the changes that I make.
I am hitting my head against the wall to figure what could be the problem as my plan query is simply based on aggregation level created directlty upon the real time info cube.
Have cross checked all the points that you mentioned in this post but I cells do not change.
There should be some way around to solve this problem.
Thanks

Key Figure in a Input Ready Query

I have 9 key figures in my input ready query. 5 of them are not input ready and being loaded through a job and 4 are input ready. There is a problem with one key figure, I am able to see data for the key figure when i have START QUERY IN THE CHANGE MODE turned off. But once I turn it on it is not showing any data for the key figure. This is happening only wiht that key figure, all the other key figures are working fine. Could someone help fixing this
Thanks
Rashmi.

Hi,
I do face this type problem during my BI IP implemenation project. Pls chk thoroughly the following points.
1.The planning mode of your real-time infocube should be on always on( you need change from load to planning mode, while inputting data).
2.The START QUERY IN THE CHANGE MODE , should be on.
3.In the planning tab of key figures, ensure you enable the button : Data can be changed using planning functions.
4.In the advanced tab of key figures, pls make sure to enable the right button( Master data).
5.Pls make sure , the real time infocube, aggregation levels, filters etc, should be refreshed & active,if make any changes in planning model in between, in Aggregation levels,filters etc.
6. Pls chk the locks( SM12) always, and delete all of them, if any.
7. Log-off the Server (BEX/DWWB) and restart the BEX ,then open your Input query, it should work .
Regards
CSM Reddy

Input Ready Query, Variable read mode setting Only Values for InfoProvider

Hi,
I have a problem with Selection Variable for a BEx Query :
- I'm working with SAP BI 7.0 support package 15
- My query is an input ready query built for an "aggregation level" based on "real time infocube" (Planning);
- Characteristic, I want to filter with variable, has query property Advanced->Query Execution for Filter Value Selection = Only Values in InfoProvider
- Characteristic (info-object) has set the property: Business Explorer tab--> Query Def. Filter Value Selection as Only Values in the info-provider...
My problem is:
when I execute a query,
the Select Values for Variables screen appears
I push on the Select from List button
and Select Values For MyCharacteristic appears...
but it shows me all values in master data table of my characteristic instead of only values in the infoprovider!!!
If I build a query for the Real Time Cube it works correctly, but if the query is built for the aggregation level it doesn't work!
Could someone explain me why it doesn't work correctly?
Thanks in advanced
Fede

Thanks to Mariana Lazar

Dear Fede,
Regarding the query built on aggregation level please note the following
the aggregation level is always a Virtual Provider built other
InfoProvider and hence it does not have the dimension table and hence
the F4 mode D is not supported.
Therefore when aggregation level is used in a query, F4 does not supportD-mode: 'Only Values in InfoProvider' and all master data values are
displayed in the value list.
Reference from the note
984229 F4 modes for input help as of SAP NetWeaver 2004s BI
4. Since other InfoProviders do not have a dimension table, the system
displays only posted values if you select "Only Posted Values for
Navigation". Otherwise, it displays the values from the master data
table.
Hope this should clarify your doubts. Please let me know if you have
questions else please confirm the message at your earliest convenience.
Thank you for your cooperation and kind regards,
