Webii report variable creation

I have a report requirement that i need to create.
The report requirement have to do with creating YTD and MTD booking values for the current Financial year and the previous one.
The problem is that at the universe level, aggregation was done at MTD level and not YTD. Hence, i need to calculate the YTD within the report.
I came up with different formula to do calculate the YTD within the report.
=([Total Booking Value in USD](Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];1))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];2))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];3))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];4))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];5))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];6))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];7))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];)(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];9))(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];10))+(Previous([Total Booking Value in USD];11)))
But the issue is that when a drill filter is introduce and the report is filter at month level eg February is selected, the YTD values display a wrong result (it actually display the MTD values for February instead of a displaying the sum of MTD from October to January as the YTD)
I use the IF function and the NoFilter function but both of theses did not work
Please, i need help so that when a drill filter is apply, the YTD values will not be affected withing the report

Hello,
I would suggest you have the aggregation in the universe also done at the YTD level in filters or objects where possible. Then you should be able to just use those objects/filters where needed for YTD.
Thanks

'How to..use reporting variables in BPS' syntax issue

Hi,
I am implementing the white paper 'How to...use reporting variables in BW-BPS' and I am getting a syntax error in the include YBW_BPS_VAR_READ. The error indicates 'Statement is not accessible' for my line:
SELECT SINGLE * FROM ybw_bps_var_map
ybw_bps_var_map being my transparent table as described in the white paper.
I have never seen such a syntax error, has anyone had the same issue? My code is the one in the white paper.
Thanks for any help.
David

Hi David,
I have the coding up and running. I have not seen this error before and don't know how to resolve it. If you cut&paste it from the PDF, then maybe some special characters got pasted into the ABAP editor. Try to delete the line and type it in manually.

How to create a conditional report variable, which displays the conditional

Hi Experts,
Could you please guide me how to build a conditional report variable
For ex:
I have the data for ATM and POS in the table. I will only get the data of ATMS because of the filters, I still want to display the POS in the report and the values for the POS will be 0.
Actual Output:
Description    Vaule
ATM                100
Desired Output
Description    Vaule
POS                 0
ATM                100
Thanks in advance...

Sadiq.

Hi Gaurav,
I have a table which has columns and data as follows
Year               Description          Trans.Amount                Trans.Count
2009               ATM                     1000                               50
2010               ATM                     5000                               200
2010               POS                     1500                               100
If I build a report and fetch the data for year 2010, report will display ATM and POS transaction amount and count.
Whereas, for 2009 there are no POS transaction, report will display only ATM transactions. But user needs the POS also to be displayed in the report with 0's for trans.amount and Trans.count.
Could you please guide me how to achieve this, if it is possible

Sadiq.

Dynamic variable creation

i would like to know how to make use of bind variables in RPD variable creation . I tried creating in oracle10g by giving a sql query in Initiliazation block . I want to select a column based on a certain user input . For Your information i cannot use ':user' because it by default takes then current user who has logged in .

If you are solely asking for a variable that would hold the value of username, Yes that is possible. It depends on the type of authentication you are using. Assuming you are using an LDAP server, providing the solution below:
1) Source the list of usernames in to a external table in the database.
2) Create an intialization block to populate that value based on user login.
Ex: select username1 from externaltable where username1=':user' - Data Source
variablename - Data target.
Now you can use this in your required init block.
Hope this answers your question.
Please award points if helpful.
Thanks,

Show Report Variable in the title

Hi all,
I need to know if it's possible to show in a title of Answer a report variable and, if it's possible, how can I do.
Thanks a lot
Steve

Hallo Venkat,
Thanks for your reply!
I'd like to have the most recent loaddate in the title, that works fine now.
However, i'm struggling with the format of the variable, maybe you have a tip how to change that.
This is what i've done:
1. Created repository initialization block "get most recent loaddate". This refreshes every day. The query is basicly a select on my loadtable to get the max date from the loadtable.
2. Then i created a dynamic repository variable "get most recent loaddate" which retrieves from my initialization block.
When i set default to '31-12-2007' (just for checking), i creates TIMESTAMP '2007-12-31 00:00:00'.
3. So, when i use the variable in the title, i get all this text. I'd like to just see the date instead.
Do you have a suggestion how i can set the datatype to date from the variable?
Thanks
Sandra

Variable creation in TestStand through CVI

I have one steptype in which during Edit, the new variable has been created. I also saved that sequence. If I close that sequence file with that steptype and reopen the same sequence, the variable created last time was not there. I think these variable are not getting stored with sequence. The steptype building block is created in CVI. Those edit time variable creation is done by means of using “TS_PropOption_InsertIfMissing” functions in CVI. Can you please tell us is there any CVI functions to create variable during edit time and to be saved with the sequence.??

Once again, Expression Strings, has stumbled another programmer!
Parameters.DatabaseOptions.ConnectionString is not a string but an Expression String, and your assignment of a StationGlobals.Database ( just a string ) is causing this error.
Here is what I did to solve your issue:
1.) StationGlobals ( remove the leading "\" and trailing \"" from the Database string ) it should contain NO leading or trailing quotes
StationGlobals.Database = Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Persist Security Info=False;Data Source=C:\\Users\\Public\\Documents\\National Instruments\\TestStand 4.2.1\\Components\\Models\\TestStand Results.mdb.
2.) In Database Options Callback use the following expression to set the Data Source
Parameters.DatabaseOptions.ConnectionString= "StationGlobals.Database"
There are other alternatives as documented in this link.

Report Variable F4 help performance issue

Hi,
I have a BI report on DSO >> Multiprovider.
When i choose F4 Variable help it takes around 2-3 minutes to display the data for selection.
Currently XXXX chars is with -- Only Posted Values for Navigation. I have tried the below options but could not see any improvement in variable f4 help performance.
-- Only Values in Infoprovider
-- Values In Master Data table
Could someone please suggest if you have faced the similar issue.
Thanks
Ashok

Hello Ashok,
Ideally you should never built a report based on a DSO, this is because it stores data at a line item level. The way the filter works is that looks at all records (SIDs) lying in the range of selection in the info provider and then displays the filter pane after it populates the records.
There can only be 1 check in this case, is to check if your DB statistics are up-to-date. The DB statistics decide if an index is to be used or not. So check for the DSO active table and all related SID tables in transaction DB20. Check the date of creation of the statistics, if it's too much in the past, then the DB does not effectively use the indices and hence it takes time.
You can use program RSANAORA to recompute the statistics.

Ansel D'Souza

Need help for report Variable to restrict the key figure value...

Hai gurus,
Now i have data in the cube as follows...
Reuisition     HR INTW date     LM INTW DATE     TEL INTW DATE     HR Count     LM Count     TEL Count
a1              01.01.2010     02.01.2010             01.04.2010                 1                1                 1
a2              02.02.2010     03.02.2010             02.02.2010                 1                1               1
a3              03.03.2010     04.03.2010             03.03.2010                 1                1               1
when i execute the report it shd ask the prompts with Date interval as in the below...
HR INTW date
LM INTW DATE
TEL INTW DATE
if i dont give any interval in the variable prompt it should display all the recors as follows
Reuisition     HR Count     LM Count     TEL Count
a1               1                  1               1
a2               1                  1                     1
a3               1                   1             1
If i give LM INTW DATE interval as    01.01.2010 to 31.02.2010
then it should display all the other counts as in the output_1 , but for LM count for a3 it should show 0.
Reuisition     HR Count     LM Count     TEL Count
a1               1                  1               1
a2               1                  1                     1
a3               1                 0                  1
that means wherever i restrict the data depending on the variable that only that interval key figure value shd be in the report..
for this scenario, which variable i need to use... and how i need to restict the KFig value in the report...
Right now i am getting like this but it is restricting the records,,, where it should not restrict the records...in the report..
Please guide me for the same...
If any concerns about the scenario please let me know...
Regards,
VJ

Hi,
You can copy your Report Writer or Report Painter reports from Profit Center Accounting to new General Ledger Accounting. This is possible for standard reports as well as your own reports. A corresponding tool supports you in this.
Prerequisites
In classic Profit Center Accounting, you have standard reports or your own reports that you want to copy.
To be able to use the Report Writer reports or the Report Painter reports in new General Ledger Accounting, you need to have assigned the scenario Profit Center Update to at least one ledger in Customizing for Financial Accounting (New).
