Variable hierarchy display not changed (BEx analyzer)

Hi
We have a BEx query, in which a drilldown characteristic is displayed as an hierarchy
Hierarchy display is active
Selected hierarchy:
Name - constant
Version - customer exit variable
Customer exit calculates version from manual input variable.
We need to view the report in BEx Analyzer.
When the query is opened, we select manual input variables and the hierarcy's version is set correctly.
The issue is that when we change manual input variables at runtime, the data is refreshed,
but hierarchy display is not changed. The selected hierarchy's version remains unchanged.
In order to change hierarchy display, we need to open characteristic properties and change the selected hierarchy manually
or we need to reopen the query and provide another manual input variables.
Our system version is 7.01 patch level 9
Is there any way to fix this problem
Or some workaroud?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Michael, thank you for reply.
But I don't see how these notes may help me with my problem.
1753959 - I don't get a short dump
1745472, 1751321 - system displays all queried nodes, the problem is that if I input another variable, hierarchy version variable is calculated via user-exit properly (I see it in ABAP debugger), but displayed hierarchy has version, which was set when I opened query initially.
1717433 - nodes are returned with non-empty result. I can see that data is refreshed, hierarchy version is requested correctly, but is displayed incorrectly. We can see, for example, new hierarchy leaves, but in "n/a" node.
I tried to run the same report on system with version 7.01, patch level 12 and get the same behaviour.
My problem is similar to that described in notes 993151, 957219, but our system patch level is already higher.

  • NW 2004s Bex Analyzer Variable screen Vs 3.X Bex Analyzer

    Hi,
    In 3.X, if you select refresh for a workbook having multiple queries, then the function refreshes all queries and the system displays the variable screen for each query in the workbook.
    In NW 2004s, if i have the same workbook and refreshing the workbook will display only one variable screen having all the variables all the queries are using.
    This is good. <b>Except</b> <i>for refreshing workbook which is already having different "material number" in different queries.</i>
    In this scenario how do we refresh the workbook and keep the material number different for the queries the workbook is using. The variable screen in NW 2004s will show only one variable "material number" and assigning a material number will change the workbook
    <i>(Implies both the queries will be using same material number after refresh-hence unable to keep the workbook same)</i>
    We are on <b>SPS 8/FEP 801.</b>
    We applied the note <b>953402</b> (variables are displayed when you  refresh all queries)
    After applying the note we added ANALYZER-VARIABLE_REFRESH_3X=X in the RSADMIN table.
    Still in NW 2004s, only one VARIABLE SCREEN is displayed will all the variables the query is using.
    Please let me know if any information is available.
    Thankyou,
    -Sini

    Hi,
    We applied to OSS NOTE # 953402 inorder to prompt the varaible like 3.X. This note did not do anything. Please advice if any other note is available or not.
    Having a common or (one) variable screen is difficult to maintain. I had lot of problem trying to keep a workbook same as in 3.X. Diificult to perform workbook conversion.
    Example:
    I am performing workbook conversion. This workbook which I am trying to convert has multi queries.
    In one query it shows material number starting with say for eg: BA, CB and no restriction is given for cal year/month and this query has plan version as mandatory variable. (NOTE: no hierarchy)
    Other query has hierarchy for material number and the hierarchy shows material starting with BA01* and cal/year restricted to 01/2006 and 02/2006.
    When I convert the workbook from 3.X to 2004s
    1.) hierarchy drilldown icon disappears when I open the workbook in NW 2004s Analyzer
    2.) Inorder to get the drilldown icon back I clicked on "refresh" which doesn't not work consistenly.
    So I always click on "variable" icon and entered the values for the mandatory variable (plan version) and assigned hierarchy (XYZ).
    3.) After executing it, both of my query shows hierarchy.
    4.) I turned off hierarchy in one of query, set filter value for material number to  BA, CB.....( NOTE: Inorder to turn off the hierarchy I have to first deactivate it and then refresh it to make it work.
    NOTE: later I was unable to turn it ON.
    5.) The other query has hierarchy orginally(before conversion) it has 3 level drilldown and after converting it just has only one level drilldown. ( I was not able to get the original one back. I was able to filter it my material number say BA01* and cal year.
    RESULT: Unable to make the workbook indentical to 3.X. Conversion was not that succesfull.
    NOTE:
    1. The hierarchy activation/deactivation does not work properly.
    2. For eg: Select filter value for material number, the text/key shows the expected value. But If I search for those values I do not get the result. The search on material with hierarchy does not seems to work properly.
    Please let me know if you need any further details and also let me know if there any OSS Note available.
    Thankyou,

  • Text characters displayed as # on Bex analyzer (excel)

    Hi all,
    I am having issues with Turkish Charaters displayed on the report output on Bex analyser.
    The Turkish text characters in the fields like Name 1, Name 2, city are displayed in # format. 
    This is happening only when the report is executed on Bex analyzer (excel). In BW system I can see the turkish characters properly. There is no # symbol anywhere when i check in cube or master data.
    The # sign is not shown when the query is executed on internet explorer(web report). This issue is only with Bex analyzer(excel).
    Some sample data is as below.
    Correct data in BW cube or master data: ÜCRETLI ÜRETICISI TÜ
    The same is displayed when executed the report over web.
    But when executed on BEX analyzer(Excel) it shows as: #CRETLI #RETICISI T#
    This was not happening last month. I was able to see the turkish characters last month properly on BEX analyzer.
    Now we are having this # issue.
    Can anyone suggest what could be the problem with? and how we can rectify this?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Maddy,
    I also think it is a front-end issue.
    The texts look fine in RSA1 and in Web Analyzer.
    The problem with the codepage variable is that as far as i know it can have only one value.
    On my report I have a list of purchase orders with the vendors.
    The vendors come form different countries and are maintained by the country's affiliate in their native language.
    The user needs to see the texts for all displayed vendors regardless the language and alphabet.
    Right now I have probelms with Greek, Bulgarian and Serbian.
    But next month the report may contain the vendors from other countries.
    Therefore I would have to add all languages to codepage variable.
    In fact in my system it doesn't even work for one value.
    I also added other languages to windows regional settings but it didn't help.
    Do you have any tips on that?
    Thanks,
    Marek

  • Query executes in RSRT but not in BEx Analyzer

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a query for an infocube and ods object, in the bex analyzer for the infocube the query executes which has around 5000 records but for the ods object which has also 5000 records comes up with this error.
    <b>An exception with the type CX_SY_EXPORT_NO_SHARED_MEMORY occurred, but was
    neither handled locally, nor declared in a RAISING                                                                               
    Message no. RS_EXCEPTION000</b> 
    when I execute the query in RSRT it comes up.
    After closing and re logging into bex analyzer executes the query for the first but for the second time again it throws up this error.
    What could be the problem? Can anyone please let me know. Its really really urgent.
    Thanks,
    Prashant.

    hi Prashant,
    try check in RSRT, after choose your query, click 'properties' and set cache mode to 'main memory cache without swapping'.
    also check oss note 656060-OLAP: Cache main memory displacement not functioning.   
    hope this helps.
    Symptom
    Although one of the following two cache modes
    Main Memory Cache Without Swapping (mode 1)
    Main Memory Cache With Swapping (mode 2)
    is set for a query, long runtimes occur when you execute the query. The statistics (table RSDDSTAT) display the database times.
    If there is a heavy system load, the following message can also appear: RS_EXCEPTION000: No left space in shared memory.
    Other terms
    Cache, performance, displacement, shared buffer
    Reason and Prerequisites
    This problem occurs because the shared memory is insufficiently dimensioned.
    <b>Solution</b>
    Increase the amount of shared memory. The size of the shared memory should be at least 200 MB. You can refer to transaction RSRCACHE for the amount of memory reserved by the main memory cache (RSRCACHE -> Main Memory: Shared Memory/Buffer Reserved).
    The corresponding settings are (at least):
    rsdb/esm/buffersize_kb = 200000
    and, as a precaution, also
    rsdb/esm/max_objects = 10000.
    Alternatively, for queries with large resulting quantities, you can convert the Cache Mode in transaction RSRT1 to
    Cluster/Flat File Cache for Each Application Server (mode 3)
    Cluster/Flat File Cache Across Each Application Server (mode 4)

  • Max number of entries in the variable input list (F4) of Bex Analyzer Query

    Dear BW experts,
    When I run the Bex Analyzer query, it pops up the variable input screen.
    If I don't know the specific value of the variable, then I can click on the input help (F4) to get a list of available values.  There is a max number of entries coming back to the list.  For my BW system, it is currently returning 500 values.  For other people and SAP Help document, it could be 1000.
    My question is: Do you know where we can configure/set this max value? Is it a global setting?
    Thanks in advance for your help in this matter.
    Kevin-

    Murali & Pra,
    Thanks for both of your answers.  I think the answers that you provided are for BW 7.X version.
    It is flexible and exactly the way it should be for each user to customize a specific variable.
    I am running BW 3.5 query, and don't see the "Settings" option/button after I got the list of single values back.
    Is there a way to set this up for BW 3.5 query Analyzer?  My max value is always 500 for all variables.  Is there a place for setting this value and save for the next time.
    Any help from any BW experts is appreciated.

  • Hierarchy display not enabling drill down

    Hi
    We have a custom hierarchy on the cost center object which has 5 levels. The 5th level is the cost center.In some nodes the values are repeating for the first 4 level.
    e.g.
    level 1 : ABC
    level 2 : ABC
    level 3 : ABC
    level 4 : ABC
    In such a case the drill across functionality is working fine, but the drill down is not enabled with the hyper link for us to drill down the hierarchy
    The hierarchy is properly displayed in the BW side.
    what is disabling the hierarchy display
    regards

    Hi this is a known issue. pls log a CSS message for this and include the link to this discussion in the message.

  • Variable to display topics changes what it displays

    I am using a template that someone else created. It's designed to set the topic titles using the $$DisplayTopicTitle$$ and an 'Execute advanced action" to Set Topic Title. The published Cap 4 mod publishes fine. Each slide has a Next, Back and a Menu button. Moving through it the first time it looks good-although you can see the variable for a micro second before it draws the topic title to the top of the page.
    The slow draw time is a drag-maybe I could live with it. But when I hit the Back button, all the titles just display 'true'. I don't understand either of these issues. Am I doing sonething wrong?
    Thanks in advance!
    JT

    Hi there
    One thing you might wish to try would be to click Edit > Preferences > Project > Publish Settings and configure for AS3.
    This should help the momentary flash, but I'm not sure about the "True" you are seeing.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Chinese characters not displayed in Bex Analyzer

    Chinese characters in a BI report display fine in Bex Web, but not in Bex Analyzer (Excel).  Not sure if this is a NW2004s issue, or just an excel config issue. Is this a known issue?

    The problem is fonts. Are you setting a specific font for your dialog? If not, this is a JRE bug. Regardless, you can display the Chinese if you set the font for the dialog using a font that you know contains Chinese glyphs.

  • BEx Analyzer report "New Formula", "Scaling Factor" property not working

    Hi Experts,
    I have created a New Formula(Ex:- Dispatches * 2) in BEx Analyzer report. The result of the "New Formula" is 2000. When I maintain Scaling Factor as "1000" to the  New Formula properties, the result should be 2 but here 2000 is coming again.
    When I maintain this property to the existing keyfigure in Analyzer report, it is working fine.
    Please help me in this whether Scaling Factor can be applied to the New Formula or not in BEx Analyzer report. If it works, what changes we have to make to the New formula.
    SAPKW73010 is applied already to SAP BW-730
    Please see the attachment.

    Sree,
    Is the variable ABC the new one that you've created with Scaling factor setting given? The message you get on doing a syntax check on the query indicates that settings are ignored for use beyond the query.
    And if this is the case, this is a known issue. 
    However such settings will work on existing keyfigures as it is in your case.
    What you can hence do for this new variable is that if you are developing reports on top of this bex query, you can make the scaling factor setting at the report level.
    Let me know if this works for you.

  • Adding new variables to bex analyzer

    hi experts,
    i have a requirement to add 2 more variables to my report in bex analyzer. can any body explain me how to add two more variables to my report because i am new to bi
    thanks and regards
    pedamarla

    Hi,
    Once you have opened the query in the bex query designer,
    follow these steps :
    1. Go to the desired infoobject for which you want to create a variable.
    2. For the particular infoobject you would find a sub folder which is characteristic value variables.
    3. Right click and say New Variable
    4. Double click on that variable and give a technical name to the variable according to the requirement.
    5. Select the type of variable i.e. Default, Replacement path, Customer Exit or authorization.
    Depending on the type of variable selected you can fill in the other tabs.
    -> Default value would be used for user input and you can use the details tab.
    -> Replacement path is used when you want to refer some other variable or query and you can use
    the replacement path tab.
    -> Customer exit is used when you have created a customer exit and you want to use it to fulfill your requirement
    -> Authorization variable is used to provide security to users at the query level.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,
