Query potal limits the Row in Query designer

Hi All,
When i am executing the query in Query designer 7 it is showing as 4 or 5 columns only. We need to show the complete report.Everytime we are clicking on next page and going forward. Because of this reason we are going for WAD.
Is there any alternate solution where we can show the maximum number of row in the first time execution itself??
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
Could you please provide some more information.
if you have characteristics iobject whose values are (A, B etc) and calendar month in rows and then at column level you have key figures then if you have turn on the "Display Result Rows" property of both iobject in Bex as "Always" you can get the result. At the same time you can set "Display Overall result" property of the Query to get overall result.

Report Builder 2.0 returning duplicate rows in query designer

Hi,
I have a query running off a model, when I explore the data in the model and in a standard sql table it returns one row for each record, which include a unique id for each which is correct.
When I go into report builder query designer, it shows duplicate rows for each record. I have removed and added fields to try and pin point why and the only reason i can come up with is that it runs fine until I add in a field thats varchar(255) or
varchar(max). This is when it starts to duplicate the records.
Can anyone tell me why it does this or point me in the direction of how to stop this. I can't edit the query in text to add DISTINCT so thats not an option.
Many thanks,
JJSJ

OK - I have found a partial answer.   By Googling Report Builder and VARCHAR, I found another post which reported problems with the semantic query builder when the underlying table/view was returning columns of type VARCHAR(MAX).
On looking at the length setting for the data column in the DSV, this reported a length of 2,147,483,647 for this field.   This is very odd because on querying the underlying table the largest length that I can find for this column is 191,086
(which is far larger than I would have expected - I am investigating this separately).
However, why should the Report Model think that this field contains such a large value?
Anyway, the other post that I found reported that they had solved their problem by converting the field to a VARCHAR (255).    I tried this (by casting the column in my View to VARCHAR(255)) and this resolved the problem
- no more duplicate rows when adding this field to the query!!!
I also tried CASTING to TEXT and to VARCHAR(8000). The former did not resolve the problem; the latter did.
So I have a workaround but I don't understand why.
Can anybody explain why having a VARCHAR(max) column in my entity causes duplicate rows.
I suspect it is to do with the fact that for some reason the Report Model seems to think that there is an exceptionally long text string stored in this column in one of the rows but that again is a puzzle.
Thanks

How to get grand total in query designer

Hi,
Antbody know how to get the grand total after the last row in query designer? I
Thanks

Hi,
If we select the very first Characterstic in the rows section and set the Supress result rows as "never".
That will show the overall result in the end of the report,
In the query properties tab ,check for display properties of the result.That should be set to bottom.
Hope this will work.

Doubt on Rows and Coloums in BEx Query Designer.

Hello, Experts.
I have a Doubt in BEx Query Designer.
In the Rows I have a Fiscal year Period, if the user enters the Fiscal year period for e.g. : 001/2006 .
in the columns i have forecast for the Fiscal year period which user entered ( 001/2006 ),   and we have another column pervious ( Prior )fiscal year period ( 001/2005 ).
My Questions is , as we are Restricting with 001/2006 will the query retrieve the values of 2005 or not?
Thanks in Advance .
Sharp

yes i am Doing Offest.
I moved this Fiscal year Period to Free char,   and i Restricted with Pervious Fical Year period and Fical year period . it worked. but
when i kept this in Rows and deleted Previous Fiscal Year period . it is displaying blanks.   in prior years forecast.
is it because i am Ristricting it to only fical year period which user entered
         Colums--> Forcast ( User Entered year )          Prior year
Rows
Fiscal year period
Fiscal year period( user enterd )

Hide a row or column for characteristic value # in Query Designer

Hi gurus,
I would if we could hide a result row / column if one of the characteristic value is #. The requirement is actually to remove the meaningless row / column from the whole result set. For example, I have a char Material Group in the column. Since not every Material is assigned to a Material Group, I will get the following layout:
Material_Group A
Material_Group B
Material_Group C
Is it possible to define in query designer so that the column with # will automatically not be displayed?
Thanks,
Meng

Hi Meng,
I guess we have the same users..
But there is one thing that is going to make a non sense on the report: if you do not display the "#" for material group, then the total of your query by material group will not be the summation of what is displayed on the screen...and if the user explort the information in Excel (pretty sure they will do so), you will have some calls that your query does not balance....
Based on that assumption, tell the users to assign a material group to the materials, so that this unassigned column disappears. You could even give them a control report listing all the parts that do not have a material group
If this is a standard business rule not to have a material group for all parts, then, what you could do is to change the text for empty rows for Material group, then the "#" will disappear and wil be under the text description you defined.
But keep in mind that your data is made of materials which do not have a material group in their definition, noraml or not ?

3.5 Query Designer has 'row' in the footer of results but 7.0 has 'page'

3.5 Query Designer has 'row' in the footer of results but 7.0 has 'page' is there a way to change 7.0 to have 'row' instead of 'page'? We would prefer to see how many rows of data we have. I didn't know if this was a parameter they may be able to be changed.
Thanks,
Diane

I donot think there is way to display Row instead of Page.
Also in 7.0. It is based on cells.

Query Designer - Formulas in Results Row

Hi,
Is it possible to have a formula based purely on values in the results row? e.g.
Col A Col B Col C ColDl
Results Row 4 5 1 40%
Where Col D is Col A as a percentage of the total. I can create a formula for individual rows but not for the results row where it just seems to sum individual percentages.
Thanks

Hi Gaurav,
i have done what you have suggested:
In query designer > Properties for a Key Figure > Calculations > Calculate Result As > Nothing Defined,
I have set that, despite the rows are calculated as per formula defined in the key figure but the result field is not. The formula is only applied for the rows but not for the result. The result is olthough i have the setting you suggested a summation of that whole column and thats wrong.
Can you or anybody else help.
Thanks and regards,
Murat

Query Designer - Rows between Columns

Dear all,
I've got the following requirement and I really cannot figure out if it is doable.
I would appreciate your help.
I shall create a query using Sap Query Designer regarding the actual and budet data of the assets (it's a financial report).
I'll have 2 columns for the actual data and 2 columns for the budget data.
Is there any way:
a) to have the assets (the rows) in the middle of the report layout, and
b) the actual data on the left side of the assets, and
c) the budget data on the right side of the assets
The goal is when drilling down the assets, both pairs of columns to be expanded as well.
Is it doable? Is there any trick?
Thanks in advance.

Dear Riyez
I do thank you for your response.
I am wondering if there is something someone could possibly do on the Query Designer side in order to fool the system.
For instance, to design a virtual structure (I do not know how - I am thinking loudly) which would be identical to the structure that holds the assets?
In other words, is it designeable to have a row structure, then the column key figures and, finally, another row structure identical to the first one? And when the user expands the first structure, the second structure will follow accordingly?
Or such a solution is out of question?

Query designer and Standard deviation result rows

Hello everyone,
Here is my problem.
I have a key figure for which I do not want any decimals. So in the Number Format : Number of Decimal Places = 0.
I thought the result rows would follow the same rules by not displaying any decimals.
But using the Calculate Result as ... "Standard Deviation", even though my key figure is define with no decimals, the result row displays 5 decimals anyway !
Why? and is there any way I can suppress the decimals of my results rows with a Standard Deviation
Thx
JBF
Edited by: Jean-Baptiste Faubert on Jan 16, 2008 2:56 PM

Hello Jean,
First I would try to unmark flag 'Use default Settings' below Number of Decimal Places in Query Designer.
If this doesn't help you could set Decimal Places in the Provider specific Properties in Key Figure of the MultiProvider used from 'Not defined' to 0.
Also you could change the number of decimals in InfoObject maintainance of used Key Figure (in RSA1).
But then you have to check other queries where this Key Figure is used.
Kind regards

Drill down ( Collapsible Row ) Report in BEx query designer ?

Dear Friends!
I am supoosed to create a report drill down report for Purchasing History to be precise, I know that we can have drill down feature using heirarchy but is it possible for Us to have PO & PO item heirarachy ? or any other way to do drill down reporting in SAP BEx Query designer ?
like my current report is : -
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
Now I am supposed to create a report in which
normal view
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | |> PO Number| .... ( keyfigures) | Payment |
drill down or collapsible view ( please consider the heading as data I am not talking about dynamically change of headings ).
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | V PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
is there anyway to design the report in above mention manner ? you any input will be appreciated greatly.
Thank you so much!
Regards
Naim

Hi Naim,
usually we don't do the transactional data as hierarchy. not sure the reason behind your requirement.
we can do one of the below :-
1. To have the default view as
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
and then user can drill down on rest of the characteristics for detailed view later on.
2. or if they don't want to drill down on characteristics;-
we can build 2 reports , one for header level information and then jump to second query for detailed information(item level) using RRI.
first query:
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
second query:
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
Let us know if this works out?
Regards,
Sakthi.

CKF in BEx Query Designer

Hello,
I have following scenario in Query Designer:
There is only one characteristic Material in row and 3 calculated Key figures in column Price (Current Year), Price (Current Year -1), Price (Current Year -2). The User gives the current year as Input Variable. It works so far fine.
Query Output looks like:
MATERIAL | PRICE (CURENT Y) | PRICE (CURRENT Y-1) | PRICE (CURRENT Y-2)
1234 |10|20|--
2345|10||
3456|12|--|23
4653|12|13|14
7564|--|2|5
6452|||8
7362||7|
You can see that at least one value of PRICE Current Year/Current Year-1/Current Year-2 per Material is always filled. All Prices are in EUR.
Now my requirement is that I have to build a new Calculated Key Figure in Query designer which should calculate the minimum value of PRICE Current Year/Current Year-1/Current Year-2 per Material.
The new Query Output should look like this:
MATERIAL | MINIMUM (PRICE CURRENT Y to CURRENT Y-2)
1234 |10
2345|10
3456|12
4653|12
7564|2
6452|8
7362|7
I have tried to use Mathematic Function MIN but couldnu2019t get success as few cells are empty. So I cannot use function MIN. When I add empty cell with 0 then the minimum value calculates incorrect. It only works when all 3 cells are filled. How I can solve this problem in Query Designer?
Many thanks for the help.
Edited by: Moha Nan on Aug 26, 2011 1:07 PM

Hi Moha Nan,
Try this:
PRICE CURRENT Y *
((PRICE CURRENT Y NE 0) *
((PRICE CURRENT Y-1 NE 0) * (PRICE CURRENT Y < PRICE CURRENT Y-1) + (PRICE CURRENT Y-1 == 0))
((PRICE CURRENT Y-2 NE 0) * (PRICE CURRENT Y < PRICE CURRENT Y-2) + (PRICE CURRENT Y-2 == 0)))
+
PRICE CURRENT Y-1 *
((PRICE CURRENT Y-1 NE 0) *
((PRICE CURRENT Y NE 0) * (PRICE CURRENT Y-1 < PRICE CURRENT Y) + (PRICE CURRENT Y == 0))
((PRICE CURRENT Y-2 NE 0) * (PRICE CURRENT Y-1 < PRICE CURRENT Y-2) + (PRICE CURRENT Y-2 == 0)))
+
PRICE CURRENT Y-2 *
((PRICE CURRENT Y-2 NE 0) *
((PRICE CURRENT Y-1 NE 0) * (PRICE CURRENT Y-2 < PRICE CURRENT Y-1) + (PRICE CURRENT Y-1 == 0))
((PRICE CURRENT Y NE 0) * (PRICE CURRENT Y-2 < PRICE CURRENT Y) + (PRICE CURRENT Y == 0)))
replace the NE with the not equal to sign, the post forum doesn't seem to accept thos signs.
Kind regards,
Alex
