Variable for an Attribute

Dear friends,
How to create the variables for Attributes?.
For ex. 0Division is an attribute for 0Material.My requirement is to get the 0Divison in the selection screen.0Division infoobject not avilable in the cube.
Could you pls suggest with your inputs?
Thanks in advance..
Regards
Soujanya

Hi Soujanya,
One way is to make 0Division as navigational attribute for 0Material in transaction code RSD1.
Once it is marked as navigational attribute goto infocube chane ->Navigational attribute and you should able to find 0Division there check the checkbox. and activate the info cube.
Next time you login into Bex you should able to see the info object 0Division in the infoproviders tab.
Hope that helps.

  • Creating variable for display attribute

    Hi
            I have a requirement where i have to give selection criteria for a display attribute. But how to create a variable for display attribute. Please help.
    Thanks
    Imran.

    If you are in BI 7.0 version. You have to put the navigational attribute in either characteristic restriction (Filter) or default values section and then you will get the restriction option. Once restricted you can put
    that char in where ever you want.

  • Variable for navigational attribute affected fiscper input variable

    Dear Friends
    Initially, the query is having an input variable for fiscper. The query was able to run properly.
    When i add a input variable for a navigational attribute to the same query which is based on multiprovider, the fiscper input variable is no longer  seen.
    So, I removed the global filter for the navigational attribute and it is ok again.  I fixed a value for the navigational attribute at filter level is also fine.
    Please advise what could be the cause. Thank you so much.
    Best regards
    Bass

    Hi Bass,
    Again seems to be a strange issue, if you have two independent characteristic with two different input enabled variables then there is no reason for the variable to not to show up on selection screen.
    Once you add the new variable and save the query just make sure that you have earlier variable as it is and check the query properties popup and see the fiscper variable sequence in the variable list.

  • Creating variable for attribute

    Hi guys,
    Is it possible to create variable for an attribute. My requirement is that the user wants Serial # as one of the user selection criteria which is an attribute of system code equipment in Dimension material. If not, is there any other possible way to get it in user selection criteria when the report is run.
    Thanks in advance.

    you cant create a variable on attribute of a char.
    other work around is to make Serial # a navigational attribute both in the IO (system code equipment) and in the cube maintenance too. That way in the report the attribute will be available as any other char in the cube.

  • How to  use data function using characterstics variable for calculation on

    how to  use data function using characterstics variable for calculation on  attribute as key figure

    Hi Gayatri
    Did you not see my answer for CASE because CASE does indeed offer the use of the BETWEEN clause, but DECODE does not. Let me give you a little synopsis of DECODE.
    In its most simple form it takes 4 values and looks like this: DECODE(A, B, C, D)
    This essentially means, IF A = B THEN C ELSE D
    The trick to solving BETWEEN in a DECODE is to work out algoriths where A = B. Because we don't know how many values are between 00 and 99, although I could guess there were 100 we could of course have 100 parts in the DECODE but that would be awful. How about if we look at it another way and say this:
    IF PART_NUMBER < 'SDK00' THEN pay_amount
    ELSE IF PART_NUMBER > 'SDK99' THEN pay_AMOUNT
    ELSE pay_amount + 100
    This statement only had 2 hard coded values, but how to make DECODE work with less than? Easy, we use the LEAST function. The LEAST function takes 2 values and returns the one with the lowest value. So I use LEAST(PART_NUMBER, 'SDK00') then whenever the PART_NUMBER is lower than SDK00 it will be true. A similar situation exists for the opposite function GREATEST. Putting all of this together then, you can do this:
    DECODE(PART_NUMBER, GREATEST(PART_NUMBER, 'SDK00'), DECODE(PART_NUMBER, LEAST(PART_NUMBER, 'SDK99'), PAY_AMOUNT * 100, PAY_AMOUNT), PAY_AMOUNT)
    In English this can be read as follows:
    IF the PART_NUMBER is greater than or equal to SDK00 and the PART_NUMBER is less than or equal to SDK99 THEN PAY_AMOUNT x 100 ELSE 0

  • Cannot change variable for key date in aggregate

    Hello,
    when I drag time-dependant attributes into an aggregates definition I am prompted to enter a key date or choose a variable for that. I then activate and fill that aggregate. Afterwards I deactivate it and remove the time-dependant attributes so there are no time-dependant attributes in the definition any longer. I then want to also remove the variable for the key date but I can't do so. This property is greyed out and there is no context menu for the entry "Variable for key date".
    The SAP Help says this should be possible by changing the key date variable through the context menu (see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7d/eb683cc5e8ca68e10000000a114084/frameset.htm).
    Has anyone faced this problem, too? I do not want to redefine my aggregate as this is not an elegant solution to the problem.
    Thanks to any answers in advance.
    Regards,
    Philipp

    Hey Karim,
    Because you have time dependent attributes in the aggregate you need to specify key date:

  • How to pass pageFlowScope variable value as bind variable for VO

    Hi,
    I have one fixed lov (not based on datasource), if i select any value in that lov i want to pass this value to a pageFlowScope variable.
    After this i want to use this value as bind variable for VO. whenever the vo executes thereafter this bind variable should filter that vo results.
    My jdev version: 11.1.0.0
    Thanks in advance,
    SAN

    san-717,
    can you elaborate on the use case instead of the implementation you don't get done? I understand you have data displayed in a tree: so lets assume the tree structure is Locations, Departments and Employees according to the Oracle HR sample schema.
    1. What is the LOV supposed to do ?
    2. Where is the LOV located ?
    3. What values does the LOV show ?
    4. Is the LOV a select choice component or a real LOV (with search dialog)
    5. Where is the bind variable used ?
    To me it sounds like you want to filter the tree data based on the select choice value. However, you wont do this by passing the bind parameter to all View Objects involved as they may not have the attribute in their query. So your use case is important to answer the question

  • Variable based on attributes of another variable (using Exit & CMOD)

    Hello,
    Another coding question (while I get the previous one to work!)
    I have a query with amongst others, 2 variables.
    one is a require year variable in the query only ZREQYEAR
    another is a module ZMODULE
    ZMODULE have two attributes
       Year of start ZYEAR_START
       Year of end ZYEAR_END
    I need to write a enhancement in CMOD which does the following.
    When the query runs, it asks the user for a year (ZREQYEAR), lets say they those 2010 for this example.
    Based on this, the enhancement needs to populate the variable for ZMODULE with entries where
    ZMODULE-ZYEAR_START = 2010
    OR
    ZMODULE-ZYEAREND = 2010
    and then display the query for just these modules.
    is this possible? if you can think of  better way then I am open!
    I am very new to CMOD and ABAP so please keep any responses in baby language!  THANKS!!

    Hi,
    You can follow the below given steps,
    1) You will have to do all the coding in enhancement RSR00001, for using this enhancement you will have to create a project in CMOD transaction and do the coding in the available EXIT.
    2) Inside the EXIT write your code for customer exit variable created on ZMODULE (You will have to create a customer exit variable on ZMODULE infoobject).
    3) In the exit use your variable name for doing coding,
    When "ZMODULE_VARIABLE".
      IF I_STEP = 2.
        Loop at i_t_var_range into wa_var_range where vname = "ZREQYEAR_VARNAME".
        wa_data-sign = 'I'.
        wa_data-option = 'EQ'.
        wa_data-low = wa_var_range-low.
        append wa_data to e_t_data.
        EXIT.
        endloop.
        Endif.
    The value of ZREQYEAR is assigned to variable created on module. You can use following document for reference,

  • Variable on Navigational Attributes in ODS

    BW Experts,
    I have a Navigational Attribute in my ODS. In  my query design, I do not get an option to build a variable for selection on this Navigational attribute. Is it a fact with ODS that Variable cannot be built on Nav Attributes?
    Thanks

    hi Ashwin,
    we have to logout and login again bex analyzer to reflect any changes on infoprovider, i guess you were opening bex and turn on ods navigation attribute and couldn't find it in bex query, then you logoff and login again and see the navigation attribute, you can have a try
    hope this helps.

  • Create a watchpoint for object attribute

    Hi experts,
    Does anyone know how to create a watchpoint for object attribute in the debug module?
    I've already created watchpoint for variables, but I don't manage to create for attributes, like -ATTRIBUTE_REF.
    I put -ATTRIBUTE_REF and the watchpoint dialog shows the type, however it doesn't accept the parameter.
    Regards,
    André

    Hi Andre
    When you create your watchpoint you only specify the object ref in "Variable". So you would enter only without the attribute name. Using the checkboxes in the centre of the watchpoint dialog box you can narrow down how many watchpoints are created. So if the attribute you are interested in is a private instance attribute then unselect all checkboxes but this one. This means that if the object has five private instance attributes then five watchpoints are created event though you are only interested in one of them.
    If you now go to the Break/Watchpoints tab you can double click on the "Details" icon and see the watchpoints created.
    Regards.

  • Variable for variant

    Transaction Variants and Screen Variants
    Transaction variants can simplify transaction runs as they allow you to:
    Preassign values to fields
    Hide and change the 'ready for input' status of fields
    Hide and change table control column attributes
    Hide menu functions
    Hide entire screens
    In particular, hiding fields in connection with screen compression, and hiding screens, can result in greater clarity and simplicity.
    Transaction variants are made up of a sequence of screen variants. The field values and field attributes for the individual screens found in transaction variants are stored in screen variants. Each of these variants is assigned to a specific transaction, can, however, also contain values for screens in other transactions if this is required by transaction flow. The transaction that the variant is assigned to serves as initial transaction when the variant is called.
    There are both client-specific and cross-client transaction variants. All screen variants are cross-client, but may be assigned to a client-specific transaction variant.
    A namespace exists for cross-client transaction variants and screen variants and both are automatically attached to the Transport Organizer. Client-specific transaction variants must be transported manually.
    In principle, transaction and screen variants can be created for all dialog and reporting transactions. There are, however, certain Restrictions that apply to certain transactions, depending on their internal structure.
    No transaction variants are possible with transactions already containing preset parameters (parameter transactions and variant transactions).

    We were happily creating, updating and deleting various iFS content types by
    declaring 'n' attributes and then setting 3 or 4 of these properties of each
    one of the 'n' attributes of every content type i.e.
    //First attribute of the content Type
    AttributeDefinition adef1 = new AttributeDefinition(ifsSession);
    //First property of the first attribute of content Type
    adef1.setAttributeByUpperCaseName(Attribute.NAME_ATTRIBUTE,
    AttributeValue.newAttributeValue("FIRSTNAME"));
    //Second property of the first attribute of content Type
    adef1.setAttributeByUpperCaseName(Attribute.DESCRIPTION_ATTRIBUTE,
    AttributeValue.newAttributeValue("The firstname of the
    Employee"));
    //Third property of the first attribute of content Type
    adef1.setAttributeByUpperCaseName(Attribute.DATATYPE_ATTRIBUTE,
    AttributeValue.newAttributeValue
    (Attribute.ATTRIBUTEDATATYPE_STRING));
    //Fourth property of the first attribute of content Type
    adef1.setAttributeByUpperCaseName(Attribute.REQUIRED_ATTRIBUTE,
    AttributeValue.newAttributeValue(true));
    //Fifth property of the first attribute of content Type
    //We are forced to set this up. Otherwise we get above error.
    //However only required for first attribute of the content type.
    //Rest of the attributes (n-1) are fine.
    adef1.setAttributeByUpperCaseName(Attribute.SETTABLE_ATTRIBUTE,
    String.valueOf(true));
    //Sixth property of the first attribute of content Type
    //We are forced to set this up. Otherwise we get above error.
    //However only required for first attribute of the content type.
    //Rest of the attributes (n-1) are fine.
    adef1.setAttributeByUpperCaseName(Attribute.UPDATEABLE_ATTRIBUTE,
    String.valueOf(true));
    codef0.addAttributeDefinition(adef1);
    The other attributes are fine. We only need to set 3-4 properties of these
    attributes and could get away with it. Only the first attribute is causing the
    above problem. For other attributes of the content type, we are still setting
    only the first three/four properties
    If you look at the definition of iFS internal table "odm_attribute", apart from field "id", which is an implicit column, there are 12 columns which are NOT NULL.
    This means for every iFS attribute it must be required to set the values
    of these 12 properties. However like most of the examples in iFS doco,
    you could get away with setting 3-4 properties explicitly. I am sure some
    of them are set implicitly by iFS.
    The problem is, sometimes these implicit setting of properties by iFS is
    not working and its complaining about them. The ones which are causing
    problems are SETTABLE and UPDATEABLE.
    We are forced to set them explicitly. Hence the inconsistency.
    The problem is, what is the reason for iFS setting "SETTABLE" and
    "UPDATEABLE" implicitly for some attributes and requiring us to set them
    explicitly?
