Aggregate copy -- variable or fixed date

Hi Gurus:
When I try to copy an existing aggregate a pop up screen comes up saying 'select variable or fixed date' -- and lists
some dates.
My question is what exactly this means & if I cancel it says, this aggr may not be used because I did not select value from that screen..
pls suggest. I will be happy to assign the points.
Thanks & have a nice day ahead.

I got it...

Cannot change variable for key date in aggregate

Hello,
when I drag time-dependant attributes into an aggregates definition I am prompted to enter a key date or choose a variable for that. I then activate and fill that aggregate. Afterwards I deactivate it and remove the time-dependant attributes so there are no time-dependant attributes in the definition any longer. I then want to also remove the variable for the key date but I can't do so. This property is greyed out and there is no context menu for the entry "Variable for key date".
The SAP Help says this should be possible by changing the key date variable through the context menu (see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7d/eb683cc5e8ca68e10000000a114084/frameset.htm).
Has anyone faced this problem, too? I do not want to redefine my aggregate as this is not an elegant solution to the problem.
Thanks to any answers in advance.
Regards,
Philipp

Hey Karim,
Because you have time dependent attributes in the aggregate you need to specify key date:

Value of the variable FISCYEAR to compare it with a fix date

Hi,
I'm using a hierarchy in my query. But in some case I have to multipliy the value in one column depending wich year is shown. So I tried to use a formular variable. But it doesn't work. Has somebody an idea what to do?
How can I extract the value of the variable FISCYEAR to compare it with a fix date?
Problem:
........................| Year 1 (2005)       | Year 2 (2006)        |   Year 3 (2007)
hierarchy row 1 | query result 11      | query result 12       | query result 13
hierarchy row 2 | query result 21      | query result 22       | query result 23
hierarchy row 3 | query result 31      | query result 32       | query result 33 => row is hidden
formular row 4   | IF Year == 2005    | IF Year == 2005     | IF Year == 2005
                         THEN                   | THEN                    | THEN
                        query result 31 *10 | query result 32 *10 | query result 33 *10
                        ELSE                     |ELSE                    | ELSE
                        query result 31       | query result 32       | query result 33

The If Statement is no problem.
I need the value of the variable FISCYEAR. So the value of the variable is the If-Statement. I tried to use a formula variable but don't get correct values. With BW 2004 I used the text and compared it with the string "2005". BW 2004s gives me the error message the if using the text, the value of the variable depends on the language which is not supported

Obiee 11g - Formula between fixed date and variable date

Need some advice please, I’m trying to modify a campaign report for Marketing so we can track over different periods of time. For example
Start Date +7 days (all volume within this period)
Start Date +28 days ( all Volume within this period)
And so on and so on….
BUT I’m struggling to use a formula that will do this. The start date for a campaign will always be different hence why we want capture everything between Start Date + (what ever number of days are set). In the report we have a start date, campaign name and number converted to application (Measure). Any help here would be brilliant lol. At the moment when we go into the report, it gives us the measure count to date. We just want to split it down over different periods basically.

I assume we are talking about PCR for payroll. In this case look at documentation for operation NUM:
OOOOOO
Xnnnnn
X     Table
nnnnn Table field
nn    Date type 'nn' from the Date Specifications infotype (0041)
     Date types are taken from table T548Y.
Your operation would look like:
NUM=Faaesb
      F          Fixed indicator for deadline calculation
       aa           Date type: Start date of period to be
                    calculated; if the date type is not 'nn,'
                    the second position is left blank.
         e          Unit, in which the duration is calculated:
                    T = days
                    W = week
s         End date of period to be calculated:
          (blank) End of current payroll period
          J        End of current calendar year
          A        Start of current calendar year
          B        Start of WPBP period
         No other specifications are possible.
So it depends on what kind of fixed date you need.
Hope it helps,
Carlos.

Copying Variables in BPEL using XPath Query

Hi,
I am new to BPEL and i want to know if it is possible to copy data from one variable to another using XPath Query in the <from> <to> tags, when the two variables are of different message types.
I am trying to create a sample BPEL that would receive a String through the receive tag tied to one partner link (WSDl) and then invoke a different webservice using the <invoke> tag tied to another partner link (WSDL) by passing the received variable.
I have pasted the BPEL File and the two WSDl files involved.
My Issue is that when I send a soap request to the BPEL, it is passed as null to the webservice invoked.
Probably because the copy tags don't work.
Please help.

Hi,
Yes, it very much is possible.
Xpath query provides a lot many data type conversion functions(string to int, string to date etc), which can be used in copying variables.

How to calculate number of days between fixed date and hire date in schema

i want to calculate the number of days between a fixed date en the hire date (infotype 041)
If i read the documentation right, i should use the following command:
HRS=YDXA02
Variable 3 (the x) is the fixed data.
My question is how do i program the variable x?
Let's say the date 01.01.2008
Any help would be welcome

Schedule Lines - fixed Date and Qty checkbox

Hi Experts,
When an order is placed, on the schedule line tab there is a check box for a fixed date and qty. Can this only be set manually or can it be set by customer number.
Thanks in advance.
Mike

Hi,
When the availability check will happen in that screen you can see fixed date and quantity If you check that it will automatically copied in schedule line .
If you leave the field blank, the delivery date and confirmed quantity are not fixed. If you are able to expedite either the manufacture or purchase of goods, you may be able to deliver the goods closer to the customer's original request (and sooner than the date the system confirmed).

Krishna O

Fix Date & Qty Field in Schedule Lines Sales Order

Dear Friends,
I want to understand the need and use of the Fix Date & Qty field check in the sales order -> Item -> Schedule Lines.
Can anybody explain me the need of the same.
Regards,
Harsh

If the availability check for an item determines that the item cannot be delivered fully on the requested delivery date, and, as a result one or more schedule lines have to be created for later delivery dates, the customer can decide whether to accept these delivery dates and quantities.
You can record the customer's decision either by setting an indicator in the Fixed date and qty field or by leaving this field blank. The field is displayed both on the schedule line overview screen and on the availability screen.
Customer Accepts the Schedule Line Proposal
If the customer accepts the schedule lines which are proposed by the system, mark the Fixed date and qty field. The system then transfers the requirements for the schedule lines to material requirements planning.
Customer Requires Goods Earlier
If the customer requires the goods earlier than the date that the system can confirm after the availability check, leave the Fixed date and qty field blank. The system then only passes on the requirements for the requested delivery date and does not take the quantities and dates confirmed by the system after the availability check into account. In this case, it is assumed that the requested delivery date can be kept to because, for example, additional production capacity may become free. The system only confirms the sales order once the entire order quantity can be delivered on the requested delivery date. In the subsequent delivery processing, the sales order is only considered to be completed when the entire order quantity has been delivered or when all partial delivery agreements have been fulfilled.
A fixed item is considered to be completed once the entire confirmed quantity (which can be smaller than the originally requested order quantity)has been delivered. Therefore, it does not make sense to fix the confirmed quantity to 0 as the item is considered to be completed from the start.
During rescheduling, the fixed quantities and dates are no longer taken into account.
The same info u can get easily from help.sap.com

Fix date/Quantity in the sales order schedule line

Dear SD Gurus,
When we select the fix date/quantity in the lsaes order item schedule line, what happen? Hhow does it imapact the MD04,V_V2 and can this item be seen in CO06 to change the item date manually?
Thanks
J.Black

With fix/date and qty, you can't use rescheduling and back order processing. The setting assumes that you want to fix the date at the time of initial confirmation and therefore these functions are not relevant, and ignore anything with fix/date and qty. If you want to use those functions then don't use fix/date and qty.

Current Month, Current Year Variable on Posting Date

Hi,
I need to construct a BEx variable that will return the Current Month of the Current Year based on Posting Date. I want to be able to compare Current Month of the Current Year with Current Month of the Prior Year. I know SAP delivers variables for this based on 0CALMONTH. Is there any way to create the variable off Posting Date without having to write a customer exit?
Thanks,
C

I guess you could use replacement path variables for the same. No need to write customer exits.
Create 2 variables, one on calmonth and the other on calyear.
Variable on Calmonth -
type - replacement path.
Replacement path tab - repace with variable, give variable name into which user enters the posting date, replace with key, offset start 2 and offset length 2.
Variable on calyear -
type - replacement path.
Replacement path tab - repace with variable, give variable name into which user enters the posting date, replace with key, offset start 4 and offset length 4.
to get key figures for current month and previous year, restrict the key figure with calmonth variable created above and use offset on the calyear variable created above, like zcalyear - 1.

Problem mapping inputText field to a variable in a data control

I have encountered the following problem. Please help. Any feedback is appreciated.
I have a page that contains first name, last name, address, city, state zip and country input text fields and a submit button. When the submit button is clicked, user entered information will be commited to database. This is easily achieved by using a managed bean.
Now I would like to achieve the same functionality by using data control. The reason I want to use data control is to avoid putting the controls (first name, last name, address, city, state zip and country) in the managed bean. I was hoping that they can be directly mapped to the data control variables. The data control is created from a Java object which contains attributes of first name, last name, address, city, state zip and country. The data control is dragged and dropped to a jsff page and the jsff looks like the following:
<af:inputText label="First Name"
value="#{bindings.firstName.inputValue}"
required="true"
maximumLength="25" autoSubmit="true"
id="it10">
</af:inputText>
When I run the page, I can see the label First name but the input box was not shown. So I removed: value="#{bindings.firstName.inputValue}" and the input box appears.
Why did that happen? Can I directly map a data control attribute to an input text field?
Thank,
Cecilia

Thanks for the response, Shay. Really appreciate it.
I tried your first solution - modified the property IsUpdateable to Updateable. However the input text box is still not appearing.
My java class is just a simple Java class. In the class all I have is just a get method for a domain model object.
In the jsff, if I assigned a value to the value attribute (value="Jane"), the input text box would appear as updateable.
Any idea?

Can't get around this error after adding second dataset...A scope is required for all aggregates used outside of a data region unless the report contains exactly one dataset

I added a dataset to an existing report and broke an aggregation. In the old (i.e. single dataset) report, this expression below worked fine. I wanted to get a distinct count of the vst_ext_id field when my educated field was like "VTE1*"
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value like "VTE1*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value, Nothing))
After adding a new dataset, this no longer works and I get the error " A scope is required for all aggregates used outside of a data region unless the report contains exactly one dataset". Having done some research online, I found that I
needed to specify my dataset explicitly and I thought this new expression might work, but still no success...
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value,"DataSet1" like "VTE12*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value,"DataSet1", Nothing))
Am I missing something? Based on online responses, this explicit dataset naming convention seems to help most people, but it isn't working for me.
Thanks in advance!
Brian

I found the answer. Apparently, my expression syntax was off. This expression does the trick...
= CountDistinct(IIF(Fields!educated.Value like "VTE12*", Fields!vst_ext_id.Value,Nothing),"DataSet1")
I just happened upon this particular syntax searching online. I was trying to specify the dataset name after each .value, but I never got that to work. This is the only time I have found this particular syntax online.

Creation of OLAP Variable for Master data

Dear BW Experts,
How to Create OLAP Variable for Master data in SAP BW? What is the use of OLAP Variable?

The entry column Type (Variable) on the Select Data tabpage indicates a variable time frame in which the data should be requested. The variables are not replaced by concrete values until a request is made. There are eight options:
Variable Data request Description
0
 Yesterday
 (12am 12am)
1
 Last week
 (Monday-Sunday)
2
 Last month
 (1. (First day - last day of previous month)
3
 Last quarter
 (1. (First day - last day of previous quarter)
4
 Last year
 (01. (January 1 Dec 31 of previous year)
5
 User time selection
 See below
6
 ABAP routines
 See below
7
 OLAP variables
 See below
Time selections with the help of the variables 0 to 4.
The variables 0-4 only refer to date fields of the data type DATS.
User time selection
Type 5 gives you a free selection of all fields.
If you select this variable for a field, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type, an additional dialog box appears. In this dialog box you can freely limit the values of the fields and determine the next period value and the number of periods until a repetition.
Variables are placeholders for values and are not replaced by concrete values until a data request is made. You can also use a Variable for selections when requesting data for an InfoObject, if you choose type 7, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type.
