Addition of Key Figures in Query Produces incorrect Results

Hi,
I have a query with a globally defined structure of Restricted Key Figures. These are mainly G/L Account Balances from R/3.
When I create a global Calculated Key Figure the sum is incorrect (ie does not match R/3) despite the fact that the individual restricted key figures match perfectly.
The only inconsistency is one or 2 of the RKF's are + ve in R/3 but - ve in BW.
Would really appreciate some help on this.
Thanks a lot.

Hi All,
Thanks for your replies.
Paul B - I tried your recommendation and it did not work. I only set the result to summation nothing else.
Bjorn - I tried what you said but that didnt work either.
Venkat - I thought about this but I have about 30 + Calculated Key Figs and over 100 Restricted Kfs and a fair amount have -ve signs. Do I have to do this for all ?
Regards

Query Producing Incorrect Results

Hello:
I am trying to perform a number of queries on a database and
although I am not receiving an error message; I know that the
returned results are incorrect.
For example, in my test data; I have only 1 record that
matches the SchoolBoardID (Therefore the record could only have one
grade, one gender, etc. yet my queries are returning results for
both genders (Male and Female) and multiple grades (11 and 12) when
the record in question actually has a grade 9 assignment.
I have looked at my code over and over and I cannot find
where the problem is; does anyone see anything that jumps out at
them?
I am using an MS-Access database and I have the following
data types for the relevant fields in question.
Field Name = SchoolBoardID - Numeric - Sample Data - 74
Field Name = StudentTraineeGender - Data Type = Text - Sample
Data - Either Male or Female
Field Name = StudentTraineeGrade - Data Type = Text - Data
Contains the following (9, 10, 11, 12, 12+ Hence the reason for
having to use a Text data type)
Field Name = SchoolYear - Data Type = Text - Sample Data -
2006-2007
Field Name = TradeCode - Data Type = Text - Sample Data -
444A
Field Name = TeacherWEAApproval - Data Type = Yes/No - Sample
Data - 1 or 0

Thank you for any assistance that you can lend me with
resolving my query issues:
Regards,
Chizzy
Cornwall, Ontario, Canada

Hello:
SchoolBoardID is unique in that there is only 1 record in the
WEA_Registrants table containing it; however, it was my intention
with my queries to have the potential for more that one query to
have a positive recordcount. (i.e. It would be possible for
#GetGrade11Males.RecordCount# and
#NumberOfMaleRegisteredApprentices# and
#NumberOfMaleRegisteredApprenticesGraduated# to all return positve
record counts.
quote:
Sounds like there may be more to this issue than you are
leading us to believe.
To the best of my knowledge, I have presented
all of the relevant information.
I will look into the documentation on cfqueryparam.
Thanks for your assistance.

Building a new Cube Vs Restricted Key figure in Query - Performance issue

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a OPEX restricted key figure in Query. The problem is that the key figure should be restricted to about 30 GL Accounts and almost 300 Cost centers.
I do not know if this might cause performance issue in the query. At the moment, I am thinking of creating a new OPEX cube and load only those 30 GL Accounts, 300 cost centers and Amount. and include OPEX in multiprovider in order to get OPEX
amount in the report.
whats the best solution - creating OPEX restricted key figure or OPEX cube ?
thanks,
Bhat

I think you should go for cube as all the restrcited key figure are calculated at OLAP runtime so it will definitely affect the query performance.There are a lot of costcenter for which you have to restrict it so definitely during the runtime of query it will take a lot of time to fetch tha data from infoprovider.Its better that you create a cube with the restrictions and include it in MP.It will definitely save a lot of time during query execution

How to fill a Key figure at Query run time

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I have to fill a key figure while the query is running. This value is obtained by multiplying 2 attributes of a Material Master Data object.I could have used Formula Variable but there are two problems -
1. I have material in my info provider but not this Material Master Data object.
2. For a particular material, there are multiple rows in the Master Data object. And I have to pick only one row by applying some condition on a field of the MD object.
Please let me know if there is some way to implement this.

Hello,
You can obtain this using virtual KF. Create a KF and include in the cube on which report is built. Dont have any mapping/rule for the same.
Now write ur code using SMOD and populate this KF during runtime.

How to copy restricted key figures in query designer ?

hi,
i have created a query in query designer (BI 7.0).
How can i copy existing restricted key figures ? i can't find anything. i always have to create a new one, and then i have to do all the things like 'details of selection' etc.... manually. that CANNOT be, there MUST be a way to copy those key figures.
any ideas ?
best regards, Martin

Hi Martin,
Restricted key figures can be stored on the infoprovider basis . For which right click on the key figure (left hand side pane ), Select the necessary key figure and assign the restriction through characteristics combination, and give it a restriction and save it . Next tiem when you create query on the same info provider it should appear in the left hand side as readymade reusable piece .
Hope that helps.

How to search for Key Figures in Query Designer 7.0?

Hi,
in BEx Query Designer 3.5 there was a search function to look after key figures or characteristics. Is there a search function in Query Designer 7.0?
Thanks.

Hi,
QD 3.x version has "Find" option to identify the KF and Characteristics,but the same is not available with QD 7.x.
Reason could be:
With QD 7.x,just by typing the starting letters of KF or Characteristics by Keyboard itself,it will highlight you the entries.Hence there is no explicit Find option provided.But in case of QD 3.x,they gave it explicitely.

Calculated Key Figures in Query Designer - translation

Hello Experts,
I created a few Caclulated Key Figure in the Query Designer. They have a GUID and a text description.
I would like to know:
1) How these CKF are represented in ABAP on the system and where I can find them - some database table ?
2) If I want the description to be available in many languages how can I handle this ?
Thanks a lot

InfoSet - Calculated Key figures in query

Hi
I created an InfoSet from two cubes, and a query to report from the InfoSet , I noticed that the query displays the keyfigures twice, e.g., I have gross sales in both cubes so it appears on the left side of query designer twice. When I created the InfoSet I turned off these key figures but they still appear on the left side of the query and doubled.
Any suggestion?

This might be b'coz you didn't select which infoprovider the Key figures should be picked from.
Hence it's select both the infoprovider and displaying the values twice.

Restricted/Calculated Key Figures in Query vs MDX?

Hello All,
We are embarking on our first project utilizing SAP BW as the Data Warehouse and Web Intelligence as the presentation tool.
We plan on creating the universes on BW Queries.
What are the pros and cons of using Restricted and Calculated Key Figures in the query versus creating them in the Universe? Also from a performance impact point of view if there is any?
Best Regards,
Dan Krieg

Hi Dan,
I would suppose that there is no big influence on performance. If the calculation for the calculated key figures are very complex I would propose to calculate them on query level. So its easier to use them also in other environments.
Please take into consideration that OLAP universes are not supported in Crystal Reports. More information you find in the thread [OLAP universes and Crystal Reports|OLAP universes and Crystal Reports;.

Currency translation for a restricted key figure in Query designer

Dear Experts,
In my query i am using a restricted Keyfigure (ZRKF1 which is reusable). I have to change the currency translation key of the restricted Key Figure from zcur1 to zcur2. I am not able to edit zrkf1 Currency translation in the properties( It is in gray colour) ,while i can do it for a normal keyfigure. if i edit zrkf1 then other queries will be affected. How should i solve this? Can i copy and paste the zrkf1 to zrkf2 in order to use zrkf2 with currency translation zcur2 in my query ? How can i coy and paste restricted key figure?
Thanks,
Riya

Hello Riya
I think you can't change the currency transaltion type for RKF... to change it in RKF just make the changes in the KF which you have used in RKF....
If you don't want to change the CURR translation type in KF1 than copy it paste it (KF2)and change in that KF2...now u can use KF2 in restricted KF...
Thanks

Restricted Key Figure in Query Designer

Hi,
I have defined a Input-Variable on the Characteristic 0PURCH_ORG (Purchasing Org.) in the Query Designer.
This Variable is Mandator and represents "Selection Option". Means, the user has to give the Input-Varaible for ex. 0010...0011.
Now my requirement is to define a restriced key figure where these Purchasing Org. from Input-Variable must exclude
in the restriced key figure. I cannot exclude the Input-Varaible in restriced Key Figure as it represents "Selection Option".
I tried to define a Customer-Exit Variable (Selection Option) on the Characteristic 0PURCH_ORG which should exclude the Input-Variable.
But the ABAP-Code for Customer-Exit Variable doesn't work.
Any clue, how I can solve this problem?
Thanks

Hi Moha Nan,
A variable of the type selection option can not be excluded therefore a variable exit is your only option. What is the current ABAP you have written and why doesn't it work? Maybe we can find the issue with the coding.
You need one variable of the type selection option and another one to read the first variable and reverse the option sign (from include to exclude).
Regards,
Alex.

Creating a resticted Key Figure in Query Designer (3.5)

Hello, hope your all well!
I'm trying to create a restricted key figure that's related to the publication date of one of our titles.
I've tried to create a Structure that shows one text result if the publication date is the same or greater than 01.01.2008 and another if it's less. However, in my results it seems to be bringing two results for each line, one with each text result.
Could anyone point my in the right direction?
Have a fantastic weekend,
Rhys

Sorry, I'm new at this; what do you mean by inputs?
I'm trying to create something in the query designer that displays one text result if the result is lower than a certain number and another if higher,
Hope that makes sense.
Take care!
Rhys

Number of key figures per query

Hi guys
I have a cube with over 150 key figures.
In query designer I can see only the first 150.
Does anyone know where to change this limitation?
Regards
Shlomi

Hi Thejo,
There is no direct way to do this using another BW query simply because the data is not stored in either Masterdata Info Objects/CUBE ODS. They are stored in BW system tables which are not directly accesible by any queries to build using the Query Builder.
Try to locate the system table that holds these Info (Keyfigures + Query Name) and do ABAP Query instead.

Aggregation ---Settings of KF(Key Figure) in Query Designer

Hi,
What is the impact of the following setting in the query result
Query Designer>KF Definition>Edit-->Aggregation (TAB)
Exception Aggregation-->MAximum and
Ref Characterstic
Thanks

Hi,
To enable the calculation of key figures, the data from the InfoProvider has to be aggregated to the detail level of the query and formulas may also need to be calculated. The system has to aggregate using multiple characteristics. In regard to a selected characteristic, the system can aggregate with another rule for each key figure (exception aggregation).
