Ask query in sap (using variable $)

Hi..
i found this query from my sap :
SELECT SUBSTRING($[$112.U_CC.1], CHARINDEX(';', $[$112.U_CC.1])+1,16)
I try to create some script, but always error.
i think the format like this :
$[$ITEM.COLOMN.ROW]
example :
SELECT $[$135.2.1]
I run this query on current document, with SHIFT-F2.
My question is,
do you have another sample query like this?
thankyou

hello all..
continue my last message,
i cant send you resources, because i dont know how
but the point is,
how to get the variable on screen.
example :
1. login as 'CASHIER1'
2. in A/R Sales Invoice (in Sales modules),
we create a new Invoice
3. and when Invoice window opened, we input the transaction
4. and sales employee set to 'CASHIER1' automatically
How we do it?
Thankyou

Subject: Where are SAP Exit Variables and how to use them in Bex Query

I have seen references to variables: 0cyear (Current Year), 0CALYEAR (current year), oCALMONTH (Current month/year).
Under 0CALMONTH characteristic or 0CALYEAR I do not see any of the variables, so how does
one use these variable in the query. For example I want to create a restricted key figure: Duration restricted by Current calendar year (e.g. 2009 if I am in 2009, 2010 if I am in 2010..).

Thanks a lot. Actally, I was looking in my production system and under varaiables I did not find any SAP Exit variables,
but in development envrionment I do see some.
Why will it not show me these variables in production? Is it because:
1. Some special premssion is required to view this type of variable
or
2. THese varaiables were not installed from Business Content
It is hard for me to beleive, it is permission issue.

How to create/use SAP Exit variable of Query designer

Hello experts,
Can you please guide me on how to create/use SAP Exit variables ?
Is there any way we can transport customer exit include in which we write all codes related to customer exit variables?
Kindly provide your valuable inputs on this.
Thanks,
Mitesh

Hello Gautam,
I think you should first implement the user-exit via the transaction SMOD/CMOD and the SAP-Enhancement RSR00001 User-Exit ( BW Reporting )
For the concrete implementation I would suggest to encapsulate the variables, as it is described here
Easy implementation of BEx-Userexit-Variables
and here: BEx-Userexits reloaded

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".

Used of Sap text variable with replacement path in Bo designer

Dear experts,
I created a univers based on a SAp BW query. In this query I used a text variable in order to get dynamic header columns.
The text variable is done by using "replacement path" that is the text is derived automatically from the user input triggered by a sap bw variable.
example :
the query contains a restricted key figure which shows net values for a selected year based on variable PYEAR.
The name of this restricted keyfigure is &ZYEAR& where ZYEAR is the text variable with replacement path from the variable PYEAR.
When generated the univers based on this query I get component &YEAR&.
When I use this unvers in WebI my result containts header with &YEAR& althougth I selected for example the year 2006.
According to several how to and white papers on SDN , it seems that text variables with replacement path are supported. So I am disapointed by this result.
Can you give me advise to get a rigth result ?
thanks a lot
Olivier Doubroff

Hi Rishit,
I am trying to achieve the same as you, but it seems like text variables in restricted key figures do not work. I am using BO XI3.1 SP3 and SAP BW 7.01 SP6.
A work-around for me has been to use the "user response" function in webi to create a webi variable that holds the dynamic text title. If the user inputs Jan 2010, I change the input to a date using the "user response" and "ToDate" functions in the webi variable editor. After changing the input to a date I use the RelativeDate to extract 1 month (e.g. 25 days) from the user input. Then I have both Jan 2010 and Dec 2010 as webi variables to use as headers for my restricted key figures.
The formulas can easily become a little long, but by tweaking the user response string, you should be able to get dynamic headings by using webi functionality. But be aware that you need one webi variable for each dynamic heading if you use this method.
Let me know if it works or if I can help more:-)
Best regards,
Morten

How to get a field that using variable in order to create a query

Hi,
I found a difficulty when creating a query. so, I would like to ask you some question.
1. How to get a field that using variable which that field I want to put it in my query?
For example, I would like to take quantity field in inventory audit report. And when I put my cursor in
quantity field, there was only variable, item, etc. How to get this and put it in query?
2. How to combined the invoice quantity with inventory audit report quantity?
3. I have a query like this:
SELECT distinct T0.[DocDate] as 'Tanggal', T0.[DocNum] as 'No.Faktur', T1.[ItemCode] as 'Kode Barang',
T1.[Dscription] as 'Deskripsi', T1.[Quantity] as 'Quantity', ((T1.[LineTotal])/(T1.[Quantity])) as 'Harga
Satuan', T1.[LineTotal] as 'Harga Total', T3.[CalcPrice] as 'HPP Satuan', ((T3.[CalcPrice]) * (T1.
[Quantity])) as 'HPP Total', T4.[ItmsGrpNam] as 'Jenis Barang', T5.[SlpName] as 'Nama Sales', T1.
[WhsCode] as 'Kode Gudang' FROM [dbo].[OINV] T0 INNER JOIN [dbo].[INV1] T1 ON T0.DocEntry =
T1.DocEntry INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode INNER JOIN OINM T3 ON T2.ItemCode
= T3.ItemCode INNER JOIN OITB T4 ON T2.ItmsGrpCod = T4.ItmsGrpCod INNER JOIN OSLP T5 ON
T0.SlpCode = T5.SlpCode WHERE T3.[TransType] = '13' and T3.[CreatedBy] = T1.[DocEntry] and T0.
[DocDate] >=[%0] and T0.[DocDate] <=[%1] and T4.[ItmsGrpNam] =[%2] and T1.[WhsCode] =[%3]
Is it possible if I just take one invoice with invoice quantity and only show up at once although I have a
lot item cost for that item? (because I'm using FIFOmethod).
Please help me.. cause I'm stuck with this thing :l.
Thank you very much, and I'm waiting your respon soon.

Sisca

Try this one:
SELECT distinct T0.DocDate as 'Tanggal', T0.DocNum as 'No.Faktur', T1.ItemCode as 'Kode Barang',
T1.Dscription as 'Deskripsi', T1.Quantity as 'Quantity', ((T1.LineTotal)/(T1.Quantity)) as 'Harga
Satuan', T1.LineTotal as 'Harga Total', T3.CalcPrice as 'HPP Satuan', ((T3.CalcPrice) * (T1.
Quantity)) as 'HPP Total', T4.ItmsGrpNam as 'Jenis Barang', T5.SlpName as 'Nama Sales', T1.
WhsCode as 'Kode Gudang'
FROM dbo.OINV T0 INNER JOIN dbo.INV1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry =T1.DocEntry
INNER JOIN OITM T2 ON T1.ItemCode = T2.ItemCode
INNER JOIN OINM T3 ON T2.ItemCode = T3.ItemCode AND T3.TransType = '13' and T3.CreatedBy = T1.DocEntry AND T3.Warehouse = T1.WhsCode
INNER JOIN OITB T4 ON T2.ItmsGrpCod = T4.ItmsGrpCod
INNER JOIN OSLP T5 ON T0.SlpCode = T5.SlpCode

Error when using SAP Exit Variable for Current Fiscal Period (0FPER)

Hi Friendz,
My requirement is to execute a query for the current fiscal period. I am using the SAP Exit Variable 0FPER.
I placed this variable on char. Fiscal year/period 0FISCPER.
When I execute the Query, it is returning the error: No value could be determined for variable ZVBSYCUR; Variables Contain Invalid Values.
Please give inputs on how to use this variable.
Regards...
Ganesh

Hello Dipika,
I am also getting the same error.
ERROR: Variable 0FPER could not be replaced.
Yesterday we created one customer exit. But this should not affect the SAP Exit right? Till yesterday the 0FPER variable was working fine. I tried re-installing from BI content, but still getting the same error. If anybody has a clue please let me know.
Thanks,

2. When i put the cursor just before "SELECT" i get a pop up.
a. it is a Toad window which displays the available variables (in this case :SYSDATE_UTS).
b. gives me a dropdown option to select the type (by default VARCHAR2 is selected).
c. there is a value field where i need to enter the value for the Variable.

Q: is there something wrong in the syntax i am using?
Sven W. - I have been using your method all these days, which works just fine. i wanted to know how i could use a variable instead.
Business Requirement - My whole intent is to calculate the Age of an incident (Difference between "Reported Date" and current date) and to assign Age Groups (0-1 Days, 2-4 Days,....,20+ Days).

Can I put a SQL query into a bind variable and then use it to output report

Hi,
Can I put a SQL query into a bind variable and then use it to output report?
I want to create a report and an item "text area" (say P1_TEXT) which can let user to input a SQL query(they are all technical users and knows SQL very well). Then, I use a bind variable (that text area) to store the SQL statement. Then, I add a submit button and I want to use the following to output the report:
select * from (:P1_TEXT);
Do you think it is possible to do that? Any known limitations for APEX in this area?
Thanks a lot,
Angela

You can, but make sure it's what you really want to do. Make sure you are VERY familiar with SQL Injection. Most people who know what it is, go out of their way to prevent SQL Injection. You're going out of your way to allow it.
You can try using &P1_TEXT. instead of bind variable syntax. Bind variables are one of the best ways to prevent SQL Injection, which is why it's not working for you.
Once again, I strongly urge you to consider the implications of your app, but this suggestion should get it working.

SAP PI: Using Variable Header Binding in Receiver Mail Adapter

Hello,
I try to use Variable Header Bindings in the Receiver Mail Adapter. Therefore I wrote the following User-Defined-Function in a mapping:
Java Function Start -
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
    .getTransformationParameters()
    .get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(
    "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail",
    "XHeaderName1");
DynamicConfigurationKey key2 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(
    "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail",
    "XHeaderName2");
DynamicConfigurationKey key3 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(
    "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail",
    "XHeaderName3");
conf.put(key1, new String("Test1"));
conf.put(key2, new String("Test2"));
conf.put(key3, new String("Test3"));
Java Function End -
As expected I see the Attributes and Parameters in the Dynamic Configuration in the SAP XI Monitor:
Dynamic Configuration Informattion Start -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
- 
- <SAP:DynamicConfiguration xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail" name="XHeaderName3">Test3</SAP:Record>
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail" name="XHeaderName2">Test2</SAP:Record>
<SAP:Record namespace="http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail" name="XHeaderName1">Test1</SAP:Record>
</SAP:DynamicConfiguration>
Dynamic Configuration Informattion End -
Now I configure my Receiver eMail Communication Channel and set the Variable Header Fields as follows:
   Adapter Specific Attributes: Checked
   Variable Transport Binding: Checked
   Variable Header (XHeaderName1): TSender
   Variable Header (XHeaderName2): TReceiver
   Variable Header (XHeaderName3): TOther
With this configuration I would have expected three new Header fields in the Header of the eMail, the reicever gets. But they are not there.
When I set standard attributes like THeaderTO, THeaderSubject a.s.o this works fine and the values are also set accordingly. Where it the mistake here?
The PI version we are working with is PI 7.0 SP10.
Your help will be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Steffen

Hi Luciana,
Honestly, I cant really remember how or if it was resolved and I was just helping out on the issue, but another consultant continued with it, so unfortunately I cant be any help on this.
Good luck!

Using variables in a query

Hello all,
I just tried to use variable in a query and dont know how to
output the content in the query. As you can see from what i am
trying, i would only get the name of the query and the field name
not the output. Please tell me the idiotic thing that i am over
looking.
Matt

Mike,
Thanks, ...if you were to output the url.fieldused, then you
would get the name of the field, not the value of the field. The
getfield[ ] is not something that i am familier with and cant seem
to find documentation on this...I need to output the value of the
field and this is where i am stuck.

SAP Exit Variables changes using FM RREX_VARIABLE_EXIT

Hi BW Group:
I am trying to made some modifications on Dates fields and for that I created variables as SAP Exit.
In the code of the standard FM RREX_VARIABLE_EXIT appear a part to include the code for the new variables as RSVAREXIT_XXX_YYY.
Does any one in the group use a SAP Exit variable before? Do you need to code in this FM?
Thanks in advance.

XMII OLAP Query Template SAP Variables Count Limit

While working with the MII OLAP Query template and connecting to a a BW Adhoc query with many input variables. I have noticed the SAP Variables list available in the MII OLAP Query template seems to be limited. Is this really true, can it be configured to display more variables, is there something else that would cause variales not to be displayed in the query template list?
I have tried to type in SAP variables not displayed in the list but actually in the BW Query but this just resulted in an error.
Any insight would be really helpful. Thanks

Gary,
One again drawing some analogies here , this time with the JCO. Suppose you are interfacing to a ZBAPI and at some point you make some changes to the Z function in R/3. These changes are not automatically reflected in MII unless you refresh/clear the JCO Proxy. Could a similar scenario be attributing to your issue?
What I would suggest is to disable / save / enable / save your OLAP data server and see if that makes any differnce.
I may be totally off track here but just a thought.
Goodluck
Regards

Query runs slower when using variables & faster when using hard coded value

Hi,
My query runs slower when i use variables but it runs faster when i use hard coded values. Why it is behaving like this ?

In the above procedure if i substitute the values with hard coded values i.e. AR_orgid = 123 & pcountry = 'Austria' then it runs faster.
Please let me know why it is so ?
Thanks in advance.

List of Values from SAP BW variable in Web Intelligence

Hi Ingo,
We have SAP BW Query Variables with list of values available in Universe and hence Web Intellligence.
These variables are on InfoObjects like Business Partner, Contract Account...etc. The actual values for these objects are in millions. Whenever we use these filters at WebI, its taking too much time to load all those millions of List of Values.
Can you please guide us how to avoid loading these List of Values and provide a text box for user input.
Appreciate your help.
Regards,
Ravi Kumar Garre

Hi,
no - this is a feature you can enable on any List of values including those that are being generated based on BI variable. In the Universe - assuming a query with a BI variable - you will have two List of Value definitions per Variable.
open the properties and set both of them to "Delegated Search", save the universe, export it and then you should see the difference.

Ask query in sap (using variable $)
