Basic Key Figure - SWZG - Total cost in target currency

Hi there,
    Just wonder if it is possible to translate from Object currency to Target currency in customized CO report painters if basic key figure SWZG - Total cost in target currency is used. I've tried to maintain Reference currency under reporting currency in RPC0 - User Settings, however it seems the translation is still based on controlling area currency to target currency.
    Is basic key figure SWZG is fixed at translating from controlling area currency to target currency? If so, any other option to allow SAP to translate from Object currency to Target currency in CO reports?
    Look forward to hearing from you soon.
    Many thanks

These keyfigures are there in the ODS but i cant see in the update rule with 2LIS_03_BX but when i try to create update rule with 2LIS_03_BF it shows me an message that keyfigure is set to no update !
But the same when i do with BX it does not show me the keyfigures in the rule!
Help me!

Report Painter - new Basic Key Figure for Currency Translation

Hi,
I need a report painter report which allows to translate the company code currency HSL in GLPCT into several target currencies. Theoretically I need to translate each month with an own translation rate and possible different translation keys.
In table T804B I tried to create a new basic key figure for GLPCT in order to translate the HSL amount with a second TCURR rate. I copied the original basic key figure GLPCT - CC_HSL. I selected structure GLBDZ and fields CCH++ as data source and assigned new variables for the TCURR selection.
The report painter report is setup with three columns : one in HSL, one with CC_HSL and one with the new key figure. In the selection screen of the report painter report I can enter two rates. But after execution the translation of the new basic key figures is done with the same rate as the CC_HSL column is using.
Did anybody encounter an equal problem?
Many thanks and regards
Markus

have you created a new calculation routine in form pool SAPFGRWG equivalent to E06_CALC_CURR_CONV_HSL? doesnt this explicitly get the company code currencies

"new selection", restricted key figure and basic key figure

Hi,
I have a test report and i have a basic keyfigure "ZRevenue" and "restricted key figure"(its defined over "ZRevenue") and
a "new selection"(its defined over "ZRevenue").
Now that i have "material number" and "material color" and "request id" in the rows. ("Material color" is a navigational attribute of material number).
In the column level i have a basic key figure "ZRevenue" and "restricted key figure"(its defined over "ZRevenue") and
a "new selection"(its defined over "ZRevenue") .
In a "restricted key figure" or "new selection", we can include a basic key figure or new formula or calculated key figure or an already restricted key figure into it, then we restrict it, with one or more characteristic values. In the report output we get KF values only for those characteristic values, with which it has been restricted. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
Initially i restricted the "new selection" (with material number 1 to 3) and "restricted key figure" (with material number 1 to 4).
In the cube i have material numbers 1 to 11. Now all the values were displayed from 1 to 11, but for the
"new selection" (with material number 1 to 3) and "restricted key figure" (with material number 1 to 4) i got values only for 1 to 3 and values for 1 to 4 respectively. This is as expected and is working fine.
Now i tried to restrict the basic keyfigure "ZRevenue" with material number 1, the output was only until the material number 4 (this is the greatest value of the material number defined over the "restricted key figure").
Then i tried to restrict the "new selection" (with material number 1 to 9) , then the output was from 1 to 9 material numbers.
If i remove the restriction over the basic keyfigure "ZRevenue" , then i get all the material numbers from 1 to 11, for "new selection" i get values for the material number 1 to 9 and for "restricted key figure" i get values for the material numbers 1 to 4.
Can some one explain me why this behavior?

Hi,
This is where set theory comes in handy
So what you have is a basic KF (BKF), a selection (SEL), and an RKF.
When producing an output, BEx seems to be looking for the union of all the restrictions you place on these. So when your BKF is not restricted, the union comes out to everything in the underlying DSO. When you restrict the BKF for material number 1, this is how the restrictions might have been processed internally
BKF: Restriction on material 1
RKF: Restriction on material 1-4
SEL: Restriction on 1-3
Union of these three: 1-4
When you remove the BKF restriction and make SEL restricted to 9, this is how it plays out
BKF: NO Restriction on material
SEL: Restriction on material 1-9
RKF: Restriction on 1-4
Union of these three: everything.
As the union ends up giving you everything, you get 11 records. However, as SEL is restricted for 1-9, the SEL will have values for the materials 1-9. Likewise for RKF, you'll get values only for materials 1-4. Hope this clears things up!

Table fields used for basic key figures in report writer/report painter

Does anyone know how I can find which table field is actually being used for SAP defined basic key figures in report writer report? For example, HSL is a basic key figure for income statement, library 0F1, report 0F-GUVV. It only shows data is coming from table GLFUNCT. How does the report writer program knows which fields to select? What is the logic behind the basic key figures?
Any advice is appreciated!!
Minami

I have now resolved this issue.
I had to manually update TablesT804B and T804F.
I've added entries to T804A in the past without the need to update T804B or T804F manually so it appears that the way these tables work together has changed following an upgrade or application of support packs.

Basic Key Figures in Report Painter.

Hello:
Im working with report painter. I already did a report and in every columns I used (HSL-Local currency) as Basic Key figure. But now, I need to add a column and use Basic Key Figure (MSL-Quantity).
If I check in the library (tcode GR22) this Basic Key figure exists, but when I try to create the column I don't have this Basic Key figure as available.
Does anybody know what is missing?
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Adela.

You are right Sue. But unfortunately way back in the 90's when our company implemented SAP, those company codes did not activate the 2nd LC as USD. Thus, these companies only have figures updated in the 1st LC which is USD.
Subsequently, we acquired new companies overseas and then for these co's we switched on the 2nd LC as USD with the 1st LC as the country specific currency.

How to create Basic Key Figure, Key Figure and Characteristic

Hello Gurus,
I have copied a standard layout of KP06, named it as a Z- layout and made changes to it, like defined the plan data upload field as Object Currency enabled.
However I want to add a Z-Field , tax holiday unit as a column to this layout which I am not being able to do. The reason is when I go to Insert a new element from Edit > Element > Insert Element and click on 'Key figure with Characteristics' I do not get the Z-Field as a key figure.
I want to define the Z-field as a key figure, so that I can add it as an element.
Would be really nice of you if you can let me know the t-code/menu path to do that.
Regards.

Hello Gurus,
I wanted to share this information with you, hoping this will help you to help me.
I also tried to create a Key Figure in t-code GS32. In the table I mention --> FAGLFLEXR and hit enter. It says no Key figure has been defined for FAGLFLEXR. Then I put the cursor on the 'Reference Entry'and click on copy. Then give the name of the Key Field I want to create.
'Create Key Figure' dialog box appears. When I input the 'Row Text' 'Column Text' and click enter, I am getting an error 'The basic key figure entered for table FAGL is not defined'. I go back and do an F4 on 'Basic Key Figure' field, then I do not get any options.
I would be highly grateful if you can let me know how to create this 'Basic Key Figure' for table FAGLFLEXR.

How to build new basic key figures in library 4FM for different local curre

Hi Experts. I am working my reports with library 4FM. I need to create a new basic key figures in order to create a new report with severals currencies, like group currency or transaction currency.
Does anyone know how to do that ?
regards,
Ruth

Yes I did. they told me: "availability control only works with local currency. Transactional currencies are not supported in availability control (neither BCS nor Former Budgeting). The developer confirmed the information above. At this moment that thereare no plans to support transactional (non-local or non-FM area) currencies in BCS in a future release. I am really sorry, but I cannot provide you with a more positive answer,anyway, I propose you to refer to note 11. 11 Requested function is not in standard system. Note 11 will guide you to request the suggested changes, this is the correct channel and the chance to provide the requested functionality asstandard. Thank you very much for your understanding! "
I wrote them back and I said "we don´t need availability control in another currency, we only need that SAP add a key figures in FMAVCT table in order to have FM reports with different currencies"
Should I say another thing?
We are waiting for good news. will see.
Thanks a lot for you cooperation.

Currency Translation for Key Figures with Value More Than One Currency

Hi...
I have query which display key figure GL Account Balance. The currency that used for this key figure is USD and IDR. How we want display value based on selection screen? So if we input currency USD, all value that use currency IDR translated to USD and all value that use currency USD not changed. Otherwise if we input IDR, all value that use currency USD translated to IDR and all value that use currency IDR not changed.
How we do this in query designer? Thank you.
I have use currency translation :
1. (Right Click Key Figures >> Properties >> Currency Conversion Key)
2. Target Currency Using Variables Entry
but seems the result is not correct. Can anyone help me ?

Satria

Hi all,
Thanks for your help, but still I have problem. I have create one currency conversion type, ZXXX. This currency conversion type is using exchange rate type = "M",source curr from Data Rec, sel of targ currency with translation,
and fixed time ref = "Current Date".
Problem:
1. With this setting, i create currency translation in BEx, but the result is not same, it's like the exchange rate not using the same setting with data in ECC (I compare data with transaction fs10N). Is my setting for exchange rate not correct?
2. When I try to display GL Account Balance --> Calculated Key Figure (Total Debet - Total Credit) for period 0, the translation not working. Example if the value is IDR 1234 then the value in USD still USD 1234. Why this happen?
Thank you

Cumulative Key Figure (Running Total) - how to use in formula?

We have a scenario where I need to use the cumulative value of a Key Figure in a subsequent formula. The Cumulated property setting at the Key Figure level in the query is a Displayed Data Only setting, however, so the cumulated values are not available for use in a formula The individual values are used by BW as opposed to the cumulative values that are displayed in the column.
Ive tried using the Cumulated property at the characteristic level. I am then able to use the displayed cumulative values in a formula. However, I also need to display the individual (not cumulated) Key Figure values in a column. These individual values are no longer available for display if the Cumulated property is set at the Characteristic level.
I thought that the Define Cells functionality could possible be used, but there is only one Structure in the query, so the Define Cells functionality is unavailable. I could not think of a way to use a second structure in the rows, as the rows need to be dynamic (two characteristics, populated based on user input variables).
It may be possible to accomplish this requirement by adding a column using VBA in the SAPBEXonRefresh sub, but use of VBA is not a preferred option, as the query may be run in either the Excel Analyzer or the Web Analyzer.
The infoprovider does not contain a Key Figure field for Cumulative Volumes.
The scenario details:
Rows (Characteristics):
A: Plant (values based on user input variable)
B: Calendar day (values based on user input date variables for start & end dates)
So there is one row for each day within each plant.
Columns (Key Figures):
A: Cumulative Volume at Start of Period (uses user input date variable for start date, and Constant Value property. Hidden column.)
B: Daily Volume (for each day in the period defined by the user input variables for start and end dates)
C: Cumulative Volume at End of Each Day (formula, meant to be equal to the sum of the Cumulative Volume at start of period plus the total so far of the Daily volumes. In other words, equal to the sum of Column A plus the running total of Column B).
Does anyone out there have any more ideas on how to accomplish the required Cumulative Volume computation?

Thanks for your reply Jurgen.
I've created a Global Calculated Key Figure (CKF), and have looked at and tried a number of settings in the Properties of this new CKF.
I have not yet been able to make this work for me.
The "Cumulated" property for a Global CKF is also a display-only property. The displayed running total is not used in any formula containing this CKF, only the individual values are used in the formula.
If I select the 'Enhance' option, where exception aggregation can be done as I think you suggested, I do not see a 'cumulated' option. If I select the 'Summation' option for 'Exception Aggregation', then the 'Reference Characteristic' pull-down is not available.
Is there a different 'Exception Aggregation' option I should be using for running totals at the calendar day level?
Or am I unclear on the concept of your suggestion?
Perhaps you're on a later version of BW that has more Exception Aggregation options? (We're on BW3.5)

How to find the basic key figure for a calculate key figure?

Hi,
We know one Calculated Key figure available in a query for a Info Provider. How can we find the Key figure which has been used for that CKF or from the Calculated key figure? Please help.
Advance Thanks,

Hi,
1. To check the definition of the CKF you need to go to the query designer.
2. Once into the query desiger switch on the technical names in the query. THis option is available in the Icons displayed on the top of query designer
3. Then right click on the CKF and click display. You will find the necessary details.
4. If you are not able to see the definition of the CKF, then you may need to go in the change mode and then . Try this in development environment.

Adarsh

Currency conversion type with variable for target currency

Hi,
I use a currency conversion type with a bex variable for target currency in a query in order to convert a Key Figure. It works fine but instead of short text description there's the technical description of the variable in the selection screen. How can i change the description of the variable ?
For information, in the bex, we can't see the variable in "variable sequence". I use BI 7.0
François.

Hi,
The problem was that in the maintenance of the currency translation type the option Target Currency from Variable was checked. As a consequence in the properties of our key figure the drop-down-list Target Currency was set to from variable with no chance of changing it (it was grey).
What we can do was to choose the option Target Currency Selection with Translation instead of Target Currency from Variable. Now, in the properties of the key figure we can choose the variable in the dropdown-list Target Currency and tick the option Variable Entry. As a result, the variable shows up in the query properties and we can change its arrangement.

RW report on CCSS table: for some cost element key figure SWTG empty

Dears.
Could you kindly help to solve strange issue with report in Report Painter?
I have 2 basic key figure in report
SWTG - Total cost in transaction currency
SWOG - Total cost in object currency
In report some lines have the only SWOG figures and SWTG field empty.
It looks strange, because all costs are posted similarly in the same transaction (via cash journal FBCJ) and they all have postings in accounting and controlling.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Roman.

I understand the reason - if there were postings in different currencies, the column "Total cost in transaction currency" is shown as undeterminable values. It's OK.
But the problem is - if it is done even once, this "spoils" cost element and in "normal" period with one currency postings it will anyway show crosses as undeterminable values.
How to fix it?
Thanks,
Regards,
Roman.

Currency Translation with a Calculate Key Figure

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with applying currency translation in BEX/Query Designer on a Calculated Key Figure?
I have a need for a calculated key figure to be converted to a target currency of USD (which is already defined via RRC1). I also need the Results Row to display the summation in USD.
Currently, my calculated key figure displays two currencies (MYR and USD) and an incorrect summation of both currencies.
Here is how I have defined my calculated key figure:
NODIM ( 'Consumption (STOs)' ) * NDIV0 ( 'Material Source Plant Cost' / NODIM ( 'Source Plant Price Unit' ) )
I am multiplying a quantity field by amount field and then dividing by a price per unit field. I have applied NODIM on the other fields so that the amount field will retain it's properties.
Running this query through transaction RSRT and clicking on the Generate Report button, I get the following message:
"Currency translation cannot be carried out for element 20 (my calculated key figure). Element 20 neither contains a Basic key figure nor a variable with type Amount. For this reason, you cannot and do not need to perform a currency translation."
From the above message, I must be setting my calculated key figure incorrectly.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Hau

Hello Ajeet and N Ganesh,
Thank-you for your help. I verified that the dimensions of my key figure 'Material Source Plant Cost' was of type 0AMOUNT, so that was not the issue.
The issue was in the error message that was returned when I pressed the Generate Report button in RSRT. Essentially, currency conversions in BEX can only be performed on basic key figures or simple replacement path variables.
I can perform the currency translation on a SIMPLE calculated key figure that contains only the replacement path variable (where 'Material Source Plant Cost' is an attribute of my master data characteristic ZMAT_SRC). However, I found that I cannot perform the currency translation on COMPLEX calculated key figures, like in my example above.
To get around this currency translation issue and as suggested by the error message, I created a SIMPLE calculated key figure for replacement path variable 'Material Source Plant Cost' and performed the currency translation. The problem with this solution is that while I get my currency translation, I also get a calculated key figure that is aggregated, according to the query layout.
To get around the aggregation issue, I also created a dummy counter as a master data attribute (of ZMAT_SRC) to capture the aggregation. I assign a value of 1 to this dummy counter/master data attribute in the update rules to my ZMAT_SRC infoobject.
I then divide my new (aggregated) calculated key figure for 'Material Source Plant Cost' by the dummy counter (which is also aggregated). Essentially, I divided the aggregated replacement path variable by the scaling factor. The result is that I get a new calculated key figure that has been translated into the target currency and in the correct scaling factor. I can use the new calculated key figures in the above formula; regardless of the report is rolled-up.
Again, thanks for your help. It gave me the pieces to solve this puzzle.

Problem with Overwrite for Key Figures in ODS

A bit of a long explanation, but the problem is not so complicated...
We have an ODS containing contract line items. Each line item has a key figure "Total Contract Target" that is marked with update type "overwrite". We have modified the extractor that delivers data for this ODS so that the key figure is set to a value from the contract header. Since we don't want the key figure to be duplicated if there are multiple line items on the contract, the user exit for the extractor modifies only the first line item delivered.
For example, overall contract target value = 100. Contract has 3 line items. Contract target value for line item 1 is 100. Target value for line item 2 and 3 is 0.
This all works fine for initial loads, but there is a problem with the business content extractor for deltas. Whenever a single change is made, it delivers three sets of records. Continuing the example, we would receive 9 records for the contract (3 sets of 3 line items). Each of the three sets contains the same records. Only the first set has the correct contract target value. Since the ODS key figure is set to overwrite, our method of setting the total contract value in the first record doesn't work, because the extractor delivers duplicates so the duplicates overwrite the total with a 0.
Would setting the key figure for total contract value to update type "additive" solve this? (I'm concerned that additions would be made if there were only a change to characteristics and not the key figure). Thanks for your assistance.

Since we ought to post solutions to problems we discover for people who search this forum...
Solved this by modifying the customer exit for the extractor to set the key figure for the first contract line item encountered AND for all subsequent records with the same contract number / contract line item. Since the key figure in the ODS is set to overwrite, this makes sure that the last record written doesn't overwrite the key figure with 0.
