Always hided elements in structure (SAP BW query) are "activated" in WebI

Hello WebI-experts
We have an interesting challenge to get resolved, hopefully you can help us.
As datasource we use a SAP query with two structures.
One structure contains a variable (variable 0CMONTH of character 0CALMONTH) which is only relevant for the initial prompt, e.g.: 03.2010.
This prompting variable itself has the property of "Always Hide" under Display setting.
All the other elements of this structure have the setting "Always Show".
The Universe on this SAP BW query already shows NOT the elements of this structure. It "only" shows the structure itself as dimension (icon).
When designing a WebI query and executing it the result is:
Showing the values for all the elements with property setting "Always Show" AND wrongly also the only one with "Always Hide". It is required to exclude the "Always Hide" element of the structure from the reporting view.
Questions:
1.) Are there any means to show the elements of the SAP BW query structure in the universe and therefore also in the WebI query? If there are no means....then question 2.
2.) How can we exclude the "Always Hide" element of the structure from the reporting view?
Thanks for any advise.

Hi
I have altered the SAP BW query in the following manner:
The "always hided" element in the structure of the query has been erased.
The current structure only consists of 0CALMONTH variables, 0CMONTH, which itself are off-set ones, e.g.
STRUCTURE in the query: (consists of 12 months)
current month (variable 0CMONTH)
current month -1 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -1)
current month -2 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -2)
current month -3 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -3)
current month -4 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -4)
current month -5 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -5)
current month -6 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -6)
current month -7 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -7)
current month -8 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -8)
current month -9 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -9)
current month -10 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -10)
current month -11 (variable 0CMONTH, off-set -11)
The universe itself consists "only" of this structure, the 12 months off-set variables are not displayed respective editable.
How can we display the exact 0CALMONTH variable values, counting down from the current month, in our WebI report, e.g.:
Rows of WebI report SHOULD show:
Nov 2010
Oct 2010
Sep 2010
Aug 2010
Jul 2010
Jun 2010
May 2010
Apr 2010
Mar 2010
Feb 2010
Jan 2010
Dec 2009
Thanks for your help.

SAP BW query view deletion in Web/ "Delete Query view" in web

Dear All,
We are using the standard template: BW web analyzer (0ANALYZER). In this standard template, SAP provided two links "Save View" and "Open View" for creating new query views and opening existing query views respectively. However, no oppurtunity was provided to "delete query views".
We would like to have an oppurtunity to delete the query views as well from Web. (currently we are deleting the unwanted query views from Bex analyzer, as per the request from business users - who have access only to the web reports).
Would be great if you can suggest some solution to this problem.
By the way, We would not like to use the standard "Query view selection" web item. (as it creates user specic local views only).
best regards.

Hi atlaj
There is a Function Module called
CALL FUNCTION 'RZX2_OBJECT_DELETE'
you can make yourselves a little ABAP with.
Hope this Helps.

Prompt List of Values in WebI - SAP BI Variable - SAP BI Query -BI Infoset

Hi,
We have a Multiprovider built on an Infoset. SAP BI Infoset is built using 2 DSOs.
There is a SAP BI Query on top of this Multiprovider.
Multiple-Single Values type Optional Variables are created for some of the Objects of this SAP BI Query.
Universe is created on top of this SAP BI Query, using SAP Integration kit.
WebI is created on top of this Universe.
Prompts are created on some of the Universe Objects, for the WebI report.
We are facing a typical problem.
When a WebI prompt is created on one particular object, (which also has a Multiple Single Value type Optional Variable in SAP BI Query), its List of Values is showing up only first three values in WebI. The SAP BI Variable in BEX Analyzer shows up all the 8 values for the List of Values, for the same object.
The Output WebI report has more values for the object than shown up in the List of Values & this is the problem.
We tried to keep the settings in Info-object, DSO, Infoset, Multiprovider = Values in Master Data (for the List of Values).
Similar objects and similar variables for the same query / webi show all the List of Values.
Any guidance on aspects to be checked would be helpful.
regards,
Rajesh K Sarin

Problem :
If an SAP BI Infoset is used in data modelling, and a restricted key
figure is created in the SAP BI Query; the resultant WebI Object Prompt
for the Info-object, only shows up LOVs which have been used for the
restricted Key Figure. Both the things are not related except for the
fact that some of the values for the same object are used for the
restricted key figure.
Details :
We have a Multiprovider built on an SAP BI Infoset.
SAP BI Infoset is built using 2 DSOs.
There is a SAP BI Query on top of this Multiprovider.
There is a restricted key figure in the sap bi query. KeyFigure "Number
of Records" is restricted for 3 of the relevant Info-object "Meter
Reading Status" values.
Universe is created on top of this SAP BI Query, using SAP Integration
kit. WebI is created on top of this Universe.
Prompt is created on the Universe Object for Meter Reading Status, in
the WebI report.
List of Values is showing up only the three values in WebI (which were
used in the Restricted Key Figure calculation).
SAP BI Variable in BEX Analyzer for the same Info-object Meter Reading
Status shows up all the 8 values for the List of Values.
The Output WebI report has more values for the object than shown up in
the List of Values & this is the problem.
We have kept the settings in Info-object, DSO, Infoset,
Multiprovider, Query = Values in Master Data (for the List of Values).
When we delete the "Restricted Key Figure" from the SAP BI Query, the
refreshed Universe and Webi have a complete set of List of Values
applicable.
Steps for Reconstruction
1. Create Infoset
2. Create SAP BI Query on Infoset
3. Create Restricted Key Figure for Number of Records and few of the
values for a characteristic info-object "X".
4. Create BO Universe on SAP BI Query
5. Create Webi on BO Universe
6. Create a Prompt on the characteristic info-object "X".
7. Check List of Values for the characteristic info-object "X" in SAP
BI Query and WebI.
8. LOVs in WebI are equal to the values used for restriction in the
restricted key figure.
9. Delete the restricted key figure from SAP BI Query.
10. Refresh Universe
11. Webi prompt shows all the values for the prompt on "X".

Can I select the query elements of structure manually in transport conn

Hello all,
I am trying to select a structure and the elements of the structure manually in transport connection. I am able to slect the structure from from query elements -> structure but now how can i select (manually) the items like new selections and new formulas that are inlcuded in my structure.
When I go and search for that query element in table V_ELTDIR_TXT it says that the the items of my structure are RKF but when i try to serach under query elements -> RKF i dont see them.
Can someone help here.
Thanks in advance

Hi Kamaljeet ,
you are trying to tell me that i can just slect my query and structure (manually..so basically only 2 query elements in transport request)...and transport that and it should take care of selections and formulas in structure.
I have created a transport as per what you have told, waiting on basis to transport it. Will update you in few minutes.
Thanks again

SAP BW QUERY AND BOBJ , QUERY VARIABLES

I have a SAP BW QUERY which Iu2019m trying to get through to BOBJ 4.0 AND CONTINUE TO GET THIS error "getDocumentInformation exception Error WRE 99998.........database error The MDX QUERY SELECT {...} ON CLOUMNS, NON EMPTY UNORDER, DIMESION PROPERTIES ON ROWS from SAP VARIABLES FAILED TO EXECUTE WITH ERROR for characteristic 0FISCYEAR, enter year in specified format(IES10901)

In SAP BEX ANALYZER the query runs and returns results without any issues, but in u201CQUERY AS A WEB SERVICEu201D and u201CWEB SERVICEu201D we get THE above error ....
so i removed the variables from the row section and included it in the filter section of query and still i get errors in bobj (This is after going to Transaction RSRT checking the properties TAB and selecting "Use Selection of Structure Elements" and then generating query in SAP BW,
SOME queries you need to assign variable inputs for certain characteristics to restrict specific data ACCORDINGLY...
is there a way to come around this?
are there some docs available that simply describes the method of using a variable input/prompt in a SAP BW QUERY and how to use it in BOBJ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in Advance

personal experience the variables doesnt work properly from query to bobj, remove any calculations in yoru query and variables, you could only use filters in query.. when you bring them in webi then brring the values to the report then create vraibles in it there.
i keep my query from filtering as well then do everything in webi or xcelsius ..

Hi Ingo,
- the BI Query in the Test system is running correct and all the variables do work ?
     Yes, BI Query is working fine in the Test System and I can see all the variables too
In BI Query I can see values for Calendar Year, Version, Profit Center, Profit Center Hierarchy
- the Universe has all the variables ?
Yes, Universe has all the variables.
- do you see values in the Web Intelligence prompts when you run the report ?
   No,
   I can only see values for the Calendar Year & Version in the Web Intelligence Prompt.
When I try to see values for the Profit Center & Profit Center Hierarchy in the Web Intelligence Prompt, its showing below error.
u2018Database error: [SOFA Driver] : The operation completed successfully.. Contact your Business Objects administrator or database supplier for more information. (Error: WIS 10901)u2019
I can send you the Print Screens of Prompts & Errors, but i don't know how to attach the file here.

How to remove Decimals in Quantity Objects in SAP BO Explorer View created on top SAP Bex Query?

Hi,
I created SAP BO Explorer report on top of SAP BEx Query.
In SAP BEx Query, Decimals were hided but when i created OLAP Universe on top that SAP BEx Query and Created Index on top of Information Space in SAP BO Explorer and then created Exploration Views. But i'm getting Decimals in my Exploration Views where as SAP BEx Query in RSRT, no decimals were appearing.
Can anyone suggest me how to remove decimals in SAP BO Exploration Views.

Hi Ramana,
I am not use how you connect to SAP BEx query (Via universe or BWA or HANA)
What I could say is BWA and HANA, you cannot adjust this
For universe, you could try in universe layer, there is note about this
For BWA and HANA, this function might be enhanced but you 'd better raise OSS to SAP to check with them
Best regards

Performance Problems by using a subreport with a SAP BW Query

Hello Experts,
we have the following scenario:
- Crystal Reports Report (CRR) on top of a SAP BW Query
- SAP BW Query contains a member structure with Month, Year, Prior Year and total
If I now put some details of a dataset in the main report (e.g. key is project number) and the structure and the characteristic structure in a subreport (linked e.g. by the key project number), the CRR takes like 7,5 hours to display completely. If I don´t use a subreport it takes less then 10 minutes to display (in the preview section of Crystal Reports).
Is such a significant difference in run time normal ? I have to mention that the used query is quite complex (but this is unavoidable). And it seems also unavoidable to use the subreport to get the desired result in terms of formatting:
- if I don´t use the subreport and more than one characteristic for the details, the structure which is supposed to display the values for each projects like this
Month
Year
Prior Year
Total
gets 'dissolved' - first, Month is listed for each project, than Year is listed for each project, etc. This is only avoidable if use only one characteristic and its attributes, but no other characteristics (that are no attribute to the first one). But of course this is not what the customer wants...
- so my only solution up to now is to list the desired details in the main report and then next to them the structure and the key figure data in the subreport, so that the structure is listed as in the query - but then as mentioned the performance is awful !
Many thanks in advance for your help !
Frank

Hi Frank
Have you tried using a join in the main report rather than using the subreport linked on the Project Key Code.
Try joining the query in the main report with the query in the subreport as a single query in the main report.
Let me know your observations.

Taking display value for calculations using structures in Bex query

Hi
I am using Bex analyzer to do a simple report with two key figures Sales and Plans from cube and two more calculated key figures Abs Deviation and % error. The report displays at category and product levels. Category is higher and one category contains multiple products.
The simple formulas for the two calculated KF are,
1. Abs Deviation = Abs (Sales Plans).
Abs Deviation is set with the property Calculate result as summation to add up Abs deviations at product level to show at Category level.
2. % Error = Abs Deviation / Plan.
The issue is with the % Error value at category level. At product level, all the values are showing correctly.
To illustrate the issue with a simple test case,
CategryProductSale-PlanAbs Dev----%Error
C1--P1--100-60---40--
67%
C1--P2---50120---70--
58%
C1 Total--150180---110--
17%
Observe that in the output the calculation for %Error at product level is correct all the way. But the summary
calculation for Error% i.e. C1 total which is showing as 17% is wrong. The correct value as per the formula should be 110/180 = 61%.
SAP, through OSS replied that it is not a bug but the default behavior of OLAP calculation. OLAP processor first calculates the formula for % Error and then shows the display value at C1 total for Abs Dev. Meaning, % Error is calculated first and next the summation for Abs dev is displayed. Abs dev 110 at C1 level is only a display value but not the value taken for % Error at C1 level. Instead OLAP calculates the Abs Dev at C1 level by Total sale Total plan = 180 150 = 30 and the % Error calculation takes this 30 value in the formula and gives % Error = 30/180 * 100 = 17% at C1 level. But 17% doesn't make any sense to the user. Further, to display value of 61% at % Error at C1, it is being advised that by defining two structures, I can force the calculation to take display value of 110 in the % Error calculation at C1 level by using the cell editor.
Has any body tried to achieve similar result as above by defining two structures and cell editor in the query? If so, can you please throw some pointers of how to define two structures in a query and how to force the % Error at category level to take the display value of 110 in the calculation? I have gone through the documentaion on structures and cell editor but the approach is not at all clear.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Cells in SAP BW Query u2013 possible to use in Crystal Reports ?

Hello Experts,
we have the following scenario:
- Crystal Reports Report (CRR) on top of a SAP BW Query which uses cells
It seems that we cannot access the cells in Crystal Reports. Or does anyone know a way how to work with the cells ?
Many thanks in advance for your help !
Frank

Hi,
son in case you have a query with multiple structures you will see those structure in Crystal reports.
the structure with keyfigures is being resolved in actual measures in CR and the structure with characteristics will become a single item in CR returning several rows. the cell definition itself is totally transparent to CR.

Variables and Structure in Existing query

Hi,
Where can i see the Variables and Structure in Existing query.
Thanks
Priyanka

Open the Query from Query designer.
Click on 'Query properties' in tool bar.
You can see the variables under 'sequence of variables' window.There you can change the Sequence of variables also.

Last element in structure

hey all-
i am trying to add a comma if this is last element in
structure:
<cfset stuff=structnew()>
<cfset stuff.first=1>
<cfset stuff.first_first=2>
<cfset stuff.first_first_first=3>
<cfset stuff.first_first_first_first=4>
<cfset stuff.first_first_first_first_first=5>
<cfdump var="#stuff#">
<cfoutput>
<cfloop collection="#stuff#" item="i">
'#stuff
#'<cfif StructCount(stuff) lt 6>,</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
but it is not workin. how do i get the last
element.

As Adam said structures are unordered and there is no concept
of last.
But it looks like you are trying to output a list of elements
by looping
over the structure and do not want a comma after the last
element. Your
if logic is the problem here, it will always be true.
<cfoutput>
<cfloop collection="#stuff#" item="i">
'#stuff
#'<cfif StructCount(stuff) lt 6>,</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
StructCount(stuff) is always five. It the size of the
structure is not
going to change while you are looping over it. You need a
counter and
then compare that counter to the size of the structure to
know you have
reached the end of it.
<cfoutput>
<cfset counter = 0>
<cfloop collection="#stuff#" item="i">
<cfset counter = counter + 1>
'#stuff#'<cfif counter lt
StructCount(stuff)>,</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
This could be simplified with a list function.
<cfset stuffList = ''>
<cfloop collection="#stuff#" item="i">
<cfset stuffList = listAppend(stuffList,stuff
)>
</cfloop>
<cfoutput>#stuffList#</cfoutput>

Using several global structures in one query?

Change in global structure in one query

Hi,
1. I have some five queries already developed. Here in all the five queries i am using one global structure. I have a requirement tp change the global structure, Now after i change the global structure in one query1 do i need to transport only that query1 or i have to transport all the five queries for the change to get reflected.
2. There are five workbooks also developed for the corresponding queires. After changing the queries do i need to update the output result in all the workbooks as well?
Here in the global structure the keyfigures are replaced with new keyfigures?
Little confused , need help? Please answer my two questions
Thanks,

If you changed the global structure then transport the structure not the query.
Go to transport connection in RSA1 choose Query elements -
>Structures.
Select your structure and transport.
That should do.As long as you use "Restore to initial query" in the dataprovider properties of the workbook it should reflect your changes else you need to change at workbook level too.
Hope this helps.
