17 numbers max of BeX formula for Analyzer ?

Hi experts,
We have an Analyzer Excel Workbook, in that, we use a query with two keyfigures and on formula that sums the 2 keyfigures, in visualization options, all 3 have units and 9 decimals:
The 2 keyfigures are FLTP types, one is an integer and the other is decimal number. One result is like this:
Kfigure1 _____________ Kfigure2
1.201.145.200.010 _____ 0.987025432
The result of the formula is: 1.201.145.200.010'987000000
As you see it doesn't take care more than 17 numbers, is 17 numbers the limit for BeX in Analyzer Workbooks ?
Do you know any notes about that issue ?
Thanks in advance.

Hello John,
This could be a limitation of BEx Analyzer/Excel or the OLAP engine limitation.
Please, check if this behavior occurs on RSRT2 and RSRT transactions.
You have to input the query's technical name instead the workbook's ID.
If the behavior only occurs on BEx Analyzer, try to download the latest version:
> bi710sp12_1200-10004472.exe (if you are using BEx Analyzer 7.0)
> bw350gui710_8-10004473.exe (if you are using BEx Analyzer 3.x)
Best regards,

Numbers Equivalent of Excel Formula for Converting HH:MM:SS to DD:HH:MM:SS

I am not sure if this has been asked before.
What would be the Numbers formula for converting HH:MM:SS to DD:HH:MM:SS? The Excel formula is entering 396:59:45 into a cell and then in another cell is the following =TEXT(A2,"dd:hh:mm:ss"). The A2 is the example cell.

There is no formula to actually do the conversion. It is a matter setting the cell format. After that all you need to do is add a simple =<cell> formula to get the value in (i.e. - see my previous post), or a formula to add the two values (=A2+A5). Use Duration rather then Time for the cell formats.
A duration in Numbers for iOS will not appear 10:16:25:03, it will display as 10d 16h 25m 03s. If it is the actual display punctuation you are trying to change, it may be possible using a combination of a Duration and TEXT functions but would be quite lengthy, convoluted, and more trouble than it is worth.

Setting in BEx formula for calculation of YTD and MAT

Hi,
I have to implement 2 formulae in BEx.
As I am trying to avoide ABAP coding, can anyone please suggest SETTINGS in BEx FORMULA to achieve these below mentioned 2 formulae -
1 ) Calculate YTD - Average of the sum of the reported quarter values from the start of the year until and including the selected quarter. But, if we enter Quarter 3 and there is no data for quarter 2 then the average should be equal to sum of data for Q1 and Q2 divided by 2 instead of 3 even though user entered Q3.
2) Calculate MAT - Average of the sum of the reported quarter values for the last 4 quarters. We need to check last 4 quarters. If data is present only for 3 quarters in the last four quarters then the MAT will be data for 3 quarters divided by 3.
Please suggest BEx formulae settings, if any for the above calculations.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Prerna

Hi
I am not sure requirement related YTD is possible without customer exits variable
But regarding your 2nd requirement
Calculate MAT
Create four restricted key figures by using offset (0, -1, -2, -3) and restriction characteristic will be quarter.
Create a calculated key figure "Count of Quaerter". This will consist of "Number of rows" key figure with exception aggr on the Quarter characteristic and aggr will be "Count for all not eq to 0".
Create a calculated key figure which will be sum of four restricted key figures divided by Count of Quarter.
Kindly let me know incase further details required

Bex Formula for calcualting Value from Quantity & Price

Hello,
In my query I need to calculate the value by multiplying Quantity available in my cube and net price in my material master attribute.
How can I do this?
I tried creating a formula variable for net price and multipied it with Qty but it still says the formula is incorrect.
Any suggestions please??

I created a formula variable using replacement path as processing type, selected the reference characteristics as 0Material.
Under replacement rule selected replace variable with "infoobject", replace with "Attribute Value" and selected my attribute infoobject "0Net_Price"
In my calculated key figure I try to use this formula variable and multiply it with Qty,but it still gives a warning element not defined properly.
Can you let me know if I have missed out any step in the formula variable creation??
How is the final unit of the Calculated key figure determined? Does it take the unit of net price ??

MAX( , ) function in BEx formula

Hello Experts!
Does anyone know, how the mathematical function MAX( , ) in BEx-formulas work? Which are the two parameters if i want to have the maximum of the values in one colum? Or does this function work another way?
Best Regards,
Peter

Hello Oscar!
Thank you for answer! Thats what I want to know but it doesn't solve my problem. If I use calculate result as maximum and if I want to calculate with this value (maximum) than i got a result which is calculated with the sum, not with the maximum which I see as result.
I do open a new thread for new question...
Thanks,
Peter

A formula for musical KEYS?

Has anyone used numbers to create a formula for musical KEYS? So that, in a song with lyrics and chords above the lyrics, I could change the chords in the whole song by changing the key.
Example:
        C          em
I see trees of green..........
Explanation..... I may want to change this to a higher Key for the band and a different singer and it would look like this
        D          f#m
I see trees of green..........

Not an insoluble problem, but...
The major issue is that a cell in a Numbers table may contain a directly entered value or may display a value calculated by a formula in the cell. It can't contain both, and there's the rub.
Your initial notation is likely going to be made directly into a table superimposed on the lyric sheet. Since the chord type stays the same (a seventh chord is still a seventh chord in the new key), the calculations can be made simpler by separating the note on which the chord is based (and named) from the type modifier.
After that, the letter identifiers need to be converted to their position (in terms of half-tone count) on the scale (in the key of the original notation). Once that’s known, the last step is to retrieve the new key’s note name for each of those values.
Here's a sample.
So far only the simple stuff: Major chords, and no flats.
Original key and original chords entered on the two tables at the left. Position of the tonic is retrieved from the Lookup table for use in further calculations.
Center section contains the Lookup table and an intermediate table where the letters identifying the chord roots are translated to a number representing that note's position with respect to the original key. These tables would be on a separate sheet.
The third section contains two tables. New Key is a copy of the Orig Key table. New chords shows the equivalent chord names for the new key signature.
Formulas:
Orig Key :: B2:   =OFFSET(Lookup :: $A$1,0,MATCH(A2,Lookup :: 2:2,0)-1,,)
New Key :: B2:   =OFFSET(Lookup :: $A$1,0,MATCH(A2,Lookup :: 2:2,0)-1,,)
(Both are the same.)
Chord Root Position :: A1: =IFERROR(MOD(12-Orig. Key :: $B+MATCH(Orig chords :: A1,Lookup :: $2:$2)-1,12)+1,"")
New Chords :: A1:            =IFERROR(OFFSET(Lookup :: $A$1,1,MOD(12+Chord root positions :: A1+New Key :: $B-2,12)+1),"")
Fill each of these into all cells of its table.
Enough for tonight. I may get a chance to look at it again tomorrow,
Regards,
Barry

I need to get 2 decimal places when using a formula for a quotient and Numbers will only give me whole integers which is useless since most items will be less than 1. How can I change this?

How do I get 2 decimal places when using a formula for a quotient? It only gives me whole integers. Most of the results will be less than 1 so I need 2 decimal places

the quotient function returns only whole number portion of the dividing two numbers. If you want the actual decimal value use the divide operator. you enter this as:
A/B
if the numerator is in A1 and the denominator is in B1 you can enter the formula like this:
=A1/B1

I want to create a formula for telephone numbers in the formula editor

Is there a way to create a formula for telephone numbers in the "custom" editor in the inspector
IE if I enter 2123456789 into a cell it automatically formats it to look like this (212) 345-6789

You can create a new format by opening the Cells Inspector, then selecting "Custom" from the format menu:
You can add the ### fields and click the menu on the left of the field:

Formula for ascending column of numbers

Hi,
I never use Numbers so forgive a crazy simple question.
I have a list of names and other details in Numbers. I'd like to add a column to the very left that, for each row, has a number corresponding to each "record".
These numbers would ascend from 1, as each row ascends.
What would the formula for this be? I hate to have to enter each manually. There are hundreds of records.
Thanks so much for your help.

Is this what you are wanting to do:
Autofill cells
You can quickly add the content from selected cells to adjacent cells without typing it. You can also fill a row or column with a logical sequence of data—for example, a series of digits, dates, or letters.
Do any of the following:
Autofill the content from one or more cells into adjacent cells: Select the cells with the content you want to copy, then move the pointer over a border of the selection until a yellow autofill handle appears. Drag the handle over the cells where you want to add the content.Any data, cell format, formula, or fill associated with the selected cells is added, but comments aren’t. Autofilling overwrites existing data with the value you’re adding.
Autofill sequential content or patterns into adjacent cells: Type the first two items in the series in the first two body cells of the row or column you want to fill; for example, type A and B. Select the cells, move the pointer over a border of the selection until a yellow autofill handle appears, then drag the handle over the cells you want to fill.You can also autofill cells using a pattern of values. For example, if two selected cells contain 1 and 4, the values 7 and 10 are added when you drag over the adjacent two cells (values are incremented by 3).
Autofilling doesn’t set up an ongoing relationship among cells in the group. After autofilling, you can change the cells independently of each other.
When you autofill cells, any formulas that refer to those cells are updated automatically to use the new value.

BEx Formula Use of 'Logical And' and Calculation for Gross Margin

HI Bex gurus.
Having an odd time with what should be a simple formula to handle the display of gross margin (GM). The goal here is to display GM% properly and the requirement is as follows
If GM <= 0 then 0.0
Else
If GM > 0 and Sell > 0 then ( ( sell - cost /sell ) * 100 )
Else
If GM >0 and Sell = 0 then 100
I am familiar with bex formulas and have referenced the help docs on booleans here -
Boolean Operators - SAP Business Explorer - SAP Library
But what is odd is that if I use a calculation or a CFK in the IF, THEN with a LOGICAL AND, the formula does not report correctly
If I put in a static value, like 77, the expected logic is followed. I have tried making sure have extra parentheses and changing the order of the statement, to no avail! I could use some extra brains on this puzzling matter, so you help is greatly appreciated and will award points!
Thanks
lee lewis
Here are the formulas in text and below screen shots. Wish could copy and past formulas to and from editor!
GM%77
( ( ( 'Order GM' >0 ) AND ( Order Sell > 0 ) ) == 1) * 77 + ( ( ( 'Order GM'> 0 ) AND ( Order Sell == 0 ) ) == 1) * 100 + ('Order GM' <= 0) *0.0
GM%
( ( ( 'Order GM' >0 ) AND ( Order Sell > 0 ) ) == 1) * 'REF GM%' + ( ( ( 'Order GM' > 0 ) AND ( Order Sell == 0 ) ) == 1) * 100 + ('Order GM' <= 0) *0.0
'REF GM%
(order sell - order cost /order sell ) * 100 )
GM%77
GM%

Shouldn't you change on of the brackets in your REF GM% ?
'REF GM%
(order sell - order cost /order sell ) * 100 )
I would put that as
'REF GM%
(order sell - order cost) /order sell * 100 )
Not sure what you mean with those red arrows... but in both cases you would be dividing by 0 (order sell = 0).

Formula for division of result rows in BEx 3.5

Hi All,
We have created 3 new formulas A,B and C respectively.C=sum/sum (At record level)
Our requirement is that the result row of C should be calculated as "value in result row of A/value in result row of B".
We are able to achieve this division for individual records but at the result row level this division does not work.
Can someone please help us write a formula for this?
Regards,
Suchitra

When you want to consider result of operands.
C = SUMCT(A)/SUMCT(B)
When you want to consider overall result
C = SUMGT(A)/SUMGT(B)

BEx Formula Problem (If-Else)

Hello everybody,
I am heaving a little problem with the BEx Formula Editor.
I would like to create a formula based on time dependent attributes; witch should provide me with an actual customer rebate.
The Query should look like (displayed in Excel/Analyzer):
Customer Rebate A Rebate B Rebate C Actual Rebate
1         5 %     10 %      0 (#)       10 %
2         2 %      0 (#)    0 (#)       2 %
3         5 %      0 (#)    0 %         0 %
Rebate A, B, C are attributes of different characteristics and for being able to use them in my formula (for Actual Rebate) I have created a formula variable (replacement path) for every rebate. I have already figured out, that there is no possibility to differentiate between real zero values and zeros being displayed because there is no value defined (#) (at least it seems so to me). So I added another attribute which is 1 if there is a value. For the following example lets call it Rebate X (exists)
The formula I would like to use should contain the following logic:
If (Rebate C (exists) == 1) {
Actual Rebate = Rebate C
} elseif (Rebate B (exists) == 1) {
     Actual Rebate = Rebate B
} elseif (Rebate A (exists) == 1) {
     Actual Rebate = Rebate A
} else {
     Actual Rebate = 0
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind Regards
Simon Ulrich

Hi,
I suppose Eugenes Formular will give you the total of all three rebates if they all exist. To get the elseif correctly, I propose a formular like
(Rebate C (exists) == 1)* Rebate C + NOT (Rebate C (exists) == 1)* (((Rebate B (exists) == 1)*Rebate B) + NOT (Rebate B (exists) == 1) * ((Rebate A (exists) == 1)*Rebate A))
Hope all brackets are set correctly, slightly confusing in this editor

Can i now exact bex formula to be inserted

Can i know the bex formula to be used by if else statement in bex query.
if f9 greater than e9 then result should be E9*B9 else F9*B9
IF(F9>E9,E9*B9,F9*B9)

Hi Naiduz,
There I have missed one point, you have to create a formula variable for both these fields and with replacement processing type. Then only you can use the formula like this.
Hope this clarifies totally.
Kindly refer the doc for more understanding. It has been explained crystal clear here.

Formula for calculating Quarter value in current calendar Year

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in i need to display values for Q1 of Current Calendar Year, Q1 of Previous Calendar Year,Variance in Value and % Variance in Value...Similarly for Q2,Q3,Q4.
We have built the report directly from Bex Query from the SAP tab in Crystal Reports. The formula for Quarter1,Variances etc are defined in Bex Structures and i am unable to get 'em individually here rather i am getting them as a whole in a single object with the structure name. Now is there a way that i can define my own formula in Crystal Reports so that i can get the values for the constraints defined above???
If yes please give me the syntax or an example formula so that i can work around.
please Help,
Thanks & regards,
R.N

What fields are you getting?
or what is the data you are working with is it
transID, date, value......
or is it
Q1, Year1, Value.......
