BBP_Get_Status_2 Variant values

Dear SRMers,
System Info SRM 4.0
We have a variant for BBP_GET_STATUS_2 called GetStatus.
This variant has the following values set a.) no Shopping cart time frame set
b.) the SC..... in last days is 0.
Does this mean it will pick up the shopping carts created today or does it process all shopping carts in the system
Points will be rewarded.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Bob

Hi Bob,
Normally it is advised to create variant with 5 days runs for every 15 min, and 30 days for every 3 hours and 365 days for every weekend.
if you leave days 0, it will pick all the shopping carts.
Let me know if you need any further info on this.
Thank you

Function Module to Lock a Variant or see variant values in Disabled mode?

Hi,
I have a requirement in which I create some jobs which takes some variant as one of the input.
My Problem is once i have executed the job successfully in SM37, I need to see the variant values. I know there is a function Module RS_VARIANT_CHANGE with which we can see the values of variant.
But i dont want the user to modify those values since the job has already been executed. I just want to see them.
Can anyone tell me is there any FM to see just the variant values in disabled mode or the the variant is locked so that the user cant modify it?

Hi,
I'm not sure if you really want to create a program to see the variant values?
Because you can see the values by simply going to SM37, select the job, display list of steps, position cursor and use menu Goto -> Variant
Moreover, (I don't know if it may answer your requirement) when you schedule a job with a report which outputs an ABAP list, you may define in the print parameters the option "Selection cover sheet" to print the values of selection screen parameters/select-options.

Variant Values during Run Time

Hi
I am running a report as background job with a variant "VarOne" which has the following values
1. Duration Interval - value - 60
2. Program ID. - value - 00123
3. Current Date ( Value not saved while creating variant)
4. Current Time ( Value not saved while creating variant)
While the report is scheduled as background job with a particular variant value.. Is there a table that stores all the VarOne variant values....I want to know the values of 3 and 4. I know that looking at the job scheduling time I can get approximate values..But I need to know a place( like a table) where these variant values are stored.
I have checked the following tables but didnt find the runtime values
VARID
VARIT
TRVAR
TRVARVC
TRVARV
VARICONCI
VARICON
Hope My question is clear
Thank you

VARCH is much the same as any editor (e.g. SE38 or SA38.. or where ever you can display development objects from and choose "variants" from the "Other Objects" menu).
If you can display the variant from anywhere, but not from VARCH, then your concept seems to be a bit strange...
Note that from VARCH you can display and also maintain the variants (if authorized), but you cannot execute the programs (via their variants). That is what it is designed to do, particularly in production systems...
If your program concept in intact and correctly secured, then I recommend requesting standard VARCH to fullfill your requirement.
Your security folks should give you the correct authority to do your job, and not rely on silly tcodes to secure the variants...

Variants Values in BI 7.0 New Reporting Tools

Hello SDN,
We had an OSS Message (204968) to address the issue where we are NOT able to see query "predefined" Variants values in new reporting tools BI 7.0 BEx Analyzer.
SAP support has responded saying they are able to see the Variants values. We've tried again but I still CANNOT see the Variants values, could this be an authorization issue?
If yes, do you know if there are any new authorizations for query components and its access?
Many thanks for any helps and a highest point will be rewarded.
Best regards,
Niki

So as part of your upgrade to 7.0 -
Someone ran RSR_VARIANT_XPRA which converts Basis variants to new BW Variant tables - For use by 3.5 tools.
Table Name                     Short text
RSRVARIANT                     Variant Values
RSRVARIANTDIR                  Directory of Variants for Queries and Selection Objects
RSRVARIANTTXT                  Texts for Variants
RSRVARIANTVIEW                 Variant Header and Texts
Then RSR_MIGRATE_VARIANTS should have been run to convert the converted 3.5 variants to the to the new 7.0 variant tables?
Table Name                     Short text
RSRPARAMETRIZA                 Parametrization for a query, workbook, webapplication, pla
RSRPARAMETRIZAT                Text of parametrizations
I believe by default - all variants get converted as Global.
So if you look at the RSRPARAMETRZA* tables, do you have variants appearing in them or not?

R3 tables about job, program, variant and variant value

Hi, Experts,
    Now we are schedule lots of R3 jobs before BW uploading.
    every job has ABAP program, each ABAP program use one variant.
    my problem is: there are so much job sceduled, we are hard to go to check all setting is correct. so anyone can tell me what's R3 table have the information of job,program, variant and variant value
    I just some TBT* table which only have job info.
Thanks a lot

Hi Jie,
The variants can be found in <b>TVARV</b>,VARI,VARID,VARIT and VARIS tables.
Also Check these tables:

Passing variant values in job_submit FM

Hi Guys,
              I am running a report in background using job_submit FM.
Currently I am using Get and Set parameters to pass selection screen values.
But these values are not effective when run in background.
If variant is an option, how to populate the variant from selection screen values.
Thanks

Where do variant values get stored in SAP?

Hello
This is basically an ABAP question, but I am still putting it here. If we have a custom report (program) in R.3, and a user creates multiple variants for that program, is there a table which stores the values that he has entered for that variant. I have read several posts and have searched on the web and have found that:
1. Most important tables for variants: VARID, VARI, VARIS, TVARVC. The table VARI has a field CLUSTD where the variant contents are stored are in encoded format.
2. And the FM which does the conversion (behind-the-scenes): RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS.
But is there an a proper database table that store the values (as there are) in SAP?
Thanks,
Srini.

Hello,
I think you can find the values in different tables like: TVARV, TVARVC, VARI, VARICON, VARICONCI, VARID, VARID_CI, VARIDESC, VARIDESCCI, VARINUM, VARIS, VARIS_CI, VARIT, VARIT_CI and VARI.
I hope it helps!
Thanks.
Beatriz.

Variant value in background

Hi friends,
I have created a variant for job scheduling, i wants to use one field value in the
program when background job running from that variant. Please help me to get that value in background.
Thanks in Advance,
SB.

Hi Syed,
Hi
first Save the variant for that program and use in Job scheduling
Create a Variant for the Program and
Schedule JOB in background:
Go to SM36 create a Job
enter Program and Variant for that program in STEP..
click on Start Condition
Click on DATE and TIME enter date scheduled Start and END times
click on Period Values
Click on HOURLY/WEEKLY etc
CLick on RESTRICTIONS also to use further criteria.
so your job will be scheduled and run as per your requirement.
and in SM37 Transaction check the status of that JOB
Check this link for scheduling jobs..

BXe iView:-Variant value getting extra character by default

Hi All,
New to BI. I am having one scenario with me.
We have one BEx iView with four mandatory variants. User trying to select value for the first three variants and checking the value, but when he is entering value for the fourth variant and checking, few characters are getting add by own i.e. u201CAMu201D character is adding in the front of entered values. For example u201CAM99u201D
But when we are trying to run from backend (BI) is not happening, no extra character is coming for the fourth variant.
In the both case we are getting out put, but when we are trying from portal why extra character is getting added.
Could you please help me on this.
Deepak!!!

Hi All,
Here variants mean variables for selection criteria.
Please share your kind input on the issue.

Variant value not taken by the view

Hello experts,
I'm broadcasting a view, whose variant is dynamically changed through a process chain.
But, during the broadcast, the view is not taking the latest value of the variant, instead it is taking the values, which was entered for the first time.
The variant is changing the values every month.
Please suggest on this
Kind Regards,
Ram

Hi Ram,
Please see below document, which explain very clearly how the variants can be changes dynamically ignore the part for filling cache.

Program Variants Values

hi all
the variants for a particular program are stored in VARID table. I need to know where does the values for those variants get stored. Do we have a table or else do we have any kind of report that can be used to list the values for all the variants for a particular program.
Thanks
Vijay

Hello Vijay,
Variant content is stored in table VARI with data type LRAW. You cannot pull it using SQL. However, you can use the function RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS to get the contents.

How to loop with varying values depending on where you are in the loop

Hi,
I have need of loops / nested loops that pick different figures depending on where you are in the loop.
The whole function needs to run through 'ml' times. 'ml' is a dynamic figure.
Loop 1 = While the loop is within the first 12 iterations, 'exconemp' must equal 100. For iterations 13 - 24, 'exconemp' must equal 102.5, for 25 - 36 it will be 105.06, for 37 - 48 it will be 107.69. This needs to change every 12th iteration until it has reached 'ml'. The calculation takes the value of the previous 'exconemp' and then multiplies that by 0.025.
Loop 2 = While the loop is within the first 120 iterations, 'abc' must equal 0.015 and any further iterations must use 0.01. This must also work in a way to figure out whether 'ml' is higher or lower than 120 and work accordingly.
My main issue is this - how do I get the loops to run through as this:
While the iteration is < 12, do this, THEN take the final figure (12th iteration) and start on 13 - 24, do this THEN etc etc.
How do I produce a THEN statement? I can get the code to pick up the final values, but not change along the way.
I think that I may be better creating an array for Loop 1, but I am not entirely convinced of this. I also think it would be better/tidier if I can get 'month 1 total' and 'month 2 total' into the loops, but am not sure on how to do this.
The values that I need to produce are (only first 36 shown):
1 - 12 = 125.55, 251.65, 378.31, 505.52, 633.29, 761.63, 890.53, 1019.99, 1150.03, 1280.63, 1411.81, 1543.57
13 - 24 = 1679.05, 1815.12, 1951.79, 2089.06, 2226.93, 2365.41, 2504.50, 2644.20, 2784.52, 2925.45, 3067.00, 3209.18
25 - 36 = 3355.19, 3501.85, 3649.15, 3797.11, 3945.71, 4094.96, 4244.87, 4395.44, 4546.68, 4698.57, 4851.14, 5004.38
var ml = 240 // dynamic figure, multiple of 12 up to 780
var exconemp;
var exconem = 100;
var inf = 0.025;
var tree;
var tec;
var power;
var fvis;
var abc;
var fvee;
var tfv;
function myfunction() {
//Loop 1
//while (ml <= 12) {
exconemp = exconem;
//while (ml > 12) {
// exconemp = exconem*inf;
//end Loop 1
trace("exconemp=", exconemp); // employees contribution
tree = exconemp/(1-0.2)-exconemp;
tec = exconemp + tree;
trace("tree", tree);
trace("tec", tec);
power = Math.pow(1+0.07, 1/12);
//Loop 2
//while (ml <= 120) {
abc = 0.015;
//while {
//abc = 0.01;
//end Loop 2
fvis = power*(1-abc/12);
trace("fvis=", fvis);
fvee = tec*fvis;
trace("fvee=", fvee); // month 1 total
tfv = (tec+fvee)*fvis;
trace("tfv=", tfv); // month 2 total
for (var i:Number = 0; i < ml; i++)
      tfv = (tec+tfv)*fvis;
trace("tfvloop=", tfv);
I hope that I have explained this well enough.
Many thanks in advance.

Accounting for varying values in Data merging

Hi everyone,
I've been asked to create a template for a degree certificate. So far I've created an InDesign document and used data merge to import the data from a .csv file. I've also used GREP styles to resize the name of the degree when it's longer than a certain number of characters. So far so good.
My question has to do with how to account for different categories of certificates. Let me explain. In my spreadsheet I have thre types of certificates A, B, and C. Each category triggers two specific bits of text. So for example:
When Cat = A
the following blurb appears at the top of the certificate:
WHEREAS THE UNIVERSITY OF NOWHERE HAS BEEN EMPOWERED BY ACTS OF THE LEGISLATURE OF MARS TO CONFER DEGREES AND AWARD DIPLOMAS OF THE UNIVERSITY
and the following text appears just before the name of the degree:
HAS BEEN ADMITTED BY THE UNIVERSITY TO THE DEGREE OF
When Cat = B
the following blurb appears at the top of the certificate:
WHEREAS THE UNIVERSITY OF NOWHERE HAS BEEN EMPOWERED BY ACTS OF THE LEGISLATURE OF MARS TO CONFER DEGREES AND AWARD DIPLOMAS OF THE UNIVERSITY
and the following text appears just before the name of the degree:
HAS BEEN AWARDED THE
When Cat = C
there is no blurb at the top of the certificate.
but the following text appears just before the name of the degree:
HAS BEEN AWARDED THE
I first thought of creating IF formulas in Excel but it doesn't work because I don't want the result to appear in the data, I want it to only appear once merged in the InDesign template.
SO THE QUESTION IS:
Is there any way to specify IF THEN values directly in the InDesign document? If not, does anyone have any idea if what I'm being asked to do here is even possible?
Any help or nudge in the right direction would be greatly appreciated,
Chris

Hi Christine,
I'll need to work through the example, but it would be that the blurbs are on thier own separate layers of page 1. And the data fields are simply on their own layer, still on that page.
That's as far as I got in a quick perusal of his example. I plan on recreating the example tonight when I have a bit of my own time to spend. I suspect it will be a lot more clear following the example, bit for bit. If it does work out as it seems it should, I can think of a. coupon job I merged that would have (maybe) been easier than the 5 merge files I ended up with.
I do want to mention, pointing back to my earlier comments, if there is anyway you can work with the IT people to produce a clean file ready for you, I would do so. Colin mentioned XML, and that is what I would strive for in this situation. But XML is a bit like being thrown into the deep end of the pool and learning to swim at the same time.

Replacing the same value in a string with varying values

If I have a string:
"%s is the %s I am referring to"
and - I want to replace the %s occurrences with DIFFERENT values... what's the best way to do this.
I was thinking parsing it into seperate strings using substr and instr but, I'm not sure if that's overkill or not.
Replace is ideal but - it replaces every occurrence so - you can state just replace the first occurrence with one value and the second with another (i.e. if the desired result after replacing the above string was supposed to be "This is the string I am referring to"
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Explain how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g. 11.2.0.3.0).
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002}

There's no way to tell it (for example) to change only the first one.
REGEXP_REPLACE, is a lot more flexible. It does have an option for giving a specific occurrence, but you may not even need that feature. You might just want something like
REGEXP_REPLACE ( '%s is the %s I am referring to'
            , '(.*)%s(.*)%s(.*)'
            , '\1This\2string\3'
            )It all depends on your data and your requirements.
Are the new values (such as 'This' and 'string') fixed, or can they change from row to row?
Will you always have 2 (or some known number) of '%s's in the original string?
Does '%' always signal something that is to be replaced? If not, how can you tell when it does and when it doesn't?
Does 's' always come right after '%'? If not, what are the possibilites, and what do the different characters signify?
