Add a comment to a query cell (Characteristic / Key Figure Combination)

Hi Gurus
Essentially we are attempting to allow users add a comment to a number they enter in an IP planning screen.
The issue we have is that when we add the comment using the standard right click functionality it is stored against the basic key figure, not the characteristic/key figure combination. This means that the same comment will appear everywhere that key figure is used.
Is there a way to make comments specific to characteristic/key figure combinations so that they would show against only that cell?
Thanks
Gareth

Hello,
have you tried the GRID reporting. if the structure of your report is fix you can use a formular for each cell.
In we reporting you have the possibility to change the output of the report with the web table interface (user exit)
I have no other idea.

How to create a document on a characteristic and key figure combination?

Hello,
I will need to create for my customer a document on a characteristic and key figure combination. I don't know yet which BW objects will be concerned, but I'm trying to understand how it works.
1) I call the document screen in RSA1.
2) I select InfoProvider data.
3) I click on Create, enter a name and a description and go to the next register (Log.DOc.Properties).
Question: What do I need to select here?
According to SAP Help, the following has to be maintained:
InfoProvider: How can I get my cube diplayed in the list?
Query: Same question. But is it necessary to select a query?
Key Figure: OK
All characteristics for which the Characteristic is Document Property indicator is set: OK
Hide Name: OK
Thanks in advance for you help, Nathalie

Combine two reports in query designer using key figure with sap exit

Hi experts,
i want to combine two reports in query designer using key figure with sap exit
in the report 1 key figure calculation based on the open on key date(0P_DATE_OPEN)
to calculate due and not due in two columns
in report 2 key figure calculate in the time zones using given in variable Grid Width (0DPM_BV0) like due in 1 to 30 days, 31 to 60 days...the due amount based on the open on key date(0P_DATE_OPEN)
to calculate in 1-30, 31-60, 61-90, 91-120, 121-150 and >150 days in 6 columns
now i have requirement like this
not due, 1-30, 31-60, >60, due,1-30, 31-60, >60 in 8 columns
or
not due, due, 1-30, 31-60, 61-90, 91-120, 121-150 and >150 in 8 col
thank you

Hi Dirk,

How to create a crosstab based on BW Query which has key figure structure

Hi,
We are on CR 2008 SP1.
We have an existing BW query with custom Characteristics structure in the "Columns" section and a custom Key Fugure structure in the "Rows" section in the BW query designer.
Cell editor has been used to define formulas of the cells.
We wish to build a crystal report on top of the query.
On the crystal report on top of the query we get the characteristics structure and individual key figure elements. As already discussed in multiple fourm posts, this is the expected behaviour.
We are using a cross tab and in the column section, I have put the "Characteristic" structure in the "columns" section in the crosstab using the crosstab expert. This leads to horizonatal column headings as per expectation.
Within the characteristics structure we have multiple fields which description "%" with diffeent formula's defined on the BW query designer. On the Cyrtsl Report, when we get the columns in the crosstab, we get only a single "%" field. All other "%" fields are not visible.
A. Is there a way to get all fields in in case of same description?
I tried putting in the Key Figure elements in the "Rows" section, but was not able to get desired output.
Experts: Can you advice how this report can be built?
Any help will be appretiated.
Rgds

I am interested... How did you solve it?

How to add a total column (2 totals, just 1 key figure)

I have a query defined with only 1 key figure.
This key figure is in local currency.
I need the total of that key figure in the local currency, and another total with a foreign currency.
How can i show just 1 key figure in the detail, and 2 totals in the totals area??
Here i have some ideas.....
a) build a formula.
b) Hide that formula for the detail of the query.
PLEASE HELP ME.....!!!!
Thanks in advance for your help, if there is another better solution for that.....

Query filter over key figure

Hi,
A report need to have a query level filter with key figure (to allow +ve values) but not possible for key figures.
Scenario- every day deltau2019s get added in cube and final report publishes aggregated value. But requirement is to show historical value not the aggregated. This is how cube data looks like-
Ex-
                                        Receipt Date    Profit Center Amount(Key figure) ZDAYS (Dimension)   ZDAYCOUNT(Key figure)
First Day Posting            14/09/2009            K                     9800                             1                                          1
2nd days -ve entry         14/09/2009           K                    -9800                             1                                         -1
2nd days actual posting 14/09/2009           K                      6000                             2                                          2
3rd days -ve entry          14/09/2009           K                    -6000                             2                                         -2
3rd days actual posting   14/09/2009          K                     5000                              3                                          3
Now report supposed to show posting values of every day like for Day 1 and Day 2...tried using conditins & other aggregation options but no luck. Does any one has a clue?

Hello,
The only thing i could think of is as below: Check if its plausible.
1) Add a new infoobject ZFLAG (TYPE CHAR, LEN 1) in your cube.
2) Now write a routine to populate values in this object while loading data. The routine is a simple one with below logic:
if KF_value < 0.
ZFLAG = 'N'.
else.
ZFLAG = 'P'.
endif.
3) Now for every -ve value record the ZFLAG will be tagged as N.
4) Now in query filter out all the records with ZFLAG = N.
When you need aggregated report, simply dont use the ZFLAG in the report and the report will show up aggregated values.

Query designer execute the query some of key figure showing as * value

Hello All,
I am executing the query from Query designer, executed in web in Mozilla Firefox browser some of key figures values were showing as * value.
same query i run through RSRT its showing value for example: value is 615574389.260
if the value is more then web cannot display the result? how to correct it, Thanks!
Regards,
Ranga
Edited by: Ranga123 on Jan 30, 2012 6:09 PM

Hi Ranga,
Does your Key Figure also have unit? Usually we get * when records with different units are aggregated. As you cannot add 1 EURO to 1$, * is displayed.

Query Designer restricted key figures using a prompt value

Hallo Experts,
I would like to restrict key figures after user has beeen prompted to enter a date. I have 2 key figures:
a) KF1, Date1
b) KF2, Date2
User should be prompted to select a specific date: e.g. 01/2011. After selecting/entering the prompted date value, it should be given to date objects for intance Date1=01/2011 and Date2=01/2011.
How could I achieve it in Query Designer without using customer_exit function? Reason is that non-experienced users will use this report and they should not be confronted with complex query. Do you have any idea?
Many thanks
Mamadu

Hi,
I assume that you need to restrict the value of keyfigures by date based on user input data on variable selection screen.
First create one user input variable on your date field say for eg calday.
Now restrict your KF1 with calday and choose that vairable which you created.
For second KF2 which seems to me need to be restricted with offset of +1 based on the date entered by the user.
So restrict this KF2 with calday and use the same variable with offset of +1
I just misunderstood you ned calmonth or day because in requirement you have given month but you are calling it as date.
If its month then replace calday with calmonth..
Hope it helps.

BEx Query-Problem opening query showing restricted key figure is inactive

Hi all,
While activating the Query we are getting error , the object is missing in active version ?
And also it is not allowing to open the query how to activate the query element now?
Also restricted key figure is inactive and how to activate the query in background ?

Hi,
I have never heard of query activation, we simply create the query and save it. I don't know which activity you are referring to but try to open your query through RSRT and check what is the error it shows?
And before that make sure that your Infoprovider is in active state.

BEx query: count unique key figure values

Hi
I need a little help with a query. I need to count the number of unique key figure values. Se example;
Data:
Employee1 - 2
Employee2 - 3
Employee3 - 2
Employee4 - 1
Employee5 - 2
Employee6 - 1
Employee7 - 2
Wanted output:
1 - 2
2 - 4
3 - 1
What kind of options do I have?
Thanks
Mike

I would create a new characterstic for the same key figure and placed in rows and count in columns.
and second approach would be , create condition with customer exit and write the logic to count the unique values.
This is just a direction to move forward with the assumption that you are good in using variables and wirting logic in ABAP.
Thanks,
Sukhi

Report Desinger: Binding error for characteristic / Key Figure

Hi,
I am getting the error "Binding error for characteristic: Reference to characteristic".
I have created a report using a query and I have to change the query as per requirement, removed a characteristic.
Now when I execute a report, getting Data binding error.
Does system not changes the report if we change the provider query?
How can this issue be handled apart from deleting existing report and creating a new one?
Appreciate your help in advance.
Regards,
Amit

Amit,
First, try doing a save as on your report and save it under a new name. Delete the old one, then re-save it as the same name as before. Then, go in and clear cache so that it will re-build all references in the query. This should remove the error and you won't have to rebuild anything.
Cheers,
Rusty

Why date as characteristic/Key figure

Hi,
I need a real reason why does one choose to add date as KF or Characteristic ?
I understand that Date KF shows the no. of days since 01.01.0001 to the present day.
But when I do reporting - I do not see the same. (using BeX)
Can you please explain a bit more.
Cheers
Kiran

there is s difference in the reporting...
if your date is characteristics, then you can create variables, etc,,,that means all the properties for characteristics is applicable for the same...
incase the date is KF, then properties of KF is applicable to date, e.g calculate the date difference, etc...
Hope this is clear..
Cheers

Sorting a Key Figure by default in a query

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a query with a key figure that is sorted in descending order by default everytime. I tried creating the following condition:
Key Figure - Sales Volume
Operator - Top %
Values - 100
This sorts the key figure in descending order to a point. When I add a characteristic to the report (for example, sold to), the sorting is no longer active. I would like this key figure to remain sorted in descending order regardless of the any manipulation to the report. But, I'd still like the user to have the ability to change the sorting if they want to sort by another key figure (ascending or descending)
I'm using the BI 7.0 Query Designer.
Thanks!!

Check this:

ordering display in a KF
Hope it helps..

Filter query on Key Figures

How can I filter a query based on Key Figures? When I use conditions, the results totals don't change. I need the results to reflect the filtered data.

Angie,
There is no standard functionality to achieve this, but you can do it using formulas.
To check the problem:
E.g. You have
Material Qty Value
A           1      100
B           2      300
C           4      1000
Result    7      1400
You want to be able to filter out Materials with Qty less than 2 so you are left with just Materials B and C and the result shows Qty 6, Value 1300.
Create a formula, say 'QtyH'.
The formula detail should be: Qty > 1
This formula will display 1 for Materials B and C, Zero for Material A.
Create a second formula, say 'Qty Filtered'.
Formula detail needs to be QtyH * Qty.
Change Calculations tab to Calculate Results as Total.
This formula will display Zero for Material A, 2 for B and 4 for C.
Result row will show 6.
Repeat for the Value KF.
To simplify this you can actually combine the logic in 'QtyH' and 'Qty Filtered' into one Formula. See SAP Help under Defining New Queries; Defining Formulas, Boolean Operators
Also, if instead of QtyH being Qty > 1, you use a Formula Variable, you can give users the option to specify what filter level they want.
E.g. Qty > 'MyFormulaVariable' where the formula variable is created as Manual Input/Default Value.
Hope this helps!
