Benchmarking Key Figures in a query which is posted in a web template.

Hi All,
has someone experiences with benchmarking in a query?
What possibilitys do we have?
We want to show the following:
The query has in the rows the characteristic "sector" and in the collumns several figures. We navigate in this report via "filter and drilldown according to" to the next lower level. What we want to show is a benchmark of the figures of the lower level to the result of the first level. Example: The result of "sector1" is 150, "sector2 100" and so on and we navigate from sector1 to the belonging lower level "segment A, B, C, D". Now we want to see the information of the result of the filtered sector (150) as a benchmark to the associated segments A, B, C, D.
I know it is a bit complicated but perhaps someone has a good idea for a solution?
Regards
Mirjam

Have you found the solution? I have a similar kind of requirement.

Problem with virtual Key Figure in a query

Hi Experts,
I would like to share my problem with the virtual key figure in a query:
I have a query with a virtual key figure and when I eject the query by analyzer, the result sometimes is displayed and sometimes is not displayed (is equal to 0), with the same initials values. And when I eject the query by RSRT always display the result for the virtual key figure.
Why don't always display the result?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I think that the problem is the level of support package. We have BI AddOn 7.X (based on 7.20) support package 0.
What do you think?

Changing the formula to a key figure on a query

Hello All,
I do not have access to BEx. I would please like to know how to change the formula to a key figure "Total $" in a QD Promo Analysis query (technical name - N03_Q_D_N03_SD_502_0003). Will transaction RSRT take me to the query and eventually the formula so I can change it? If so please give me guidance as this is the first time I go into transaction RSRT. If there is another way please also give guidance.
Thank you and kind regards
Keith Kibuuka

Hi Vishvesh,
Thank you for your response. Maybe access to BEx was the wrong word - I do have access although I was trying to avoid configuring the SAP logon to add this particular client onto because I have not done this before. My boss has helped me and I have now have "access".
Therefore from the query designer can you please guide me on how to change the formula to a key figure on a query? Input from all people is also be very much appreciated.
Thank you and kind regards,
Keith

How to Create a View of a Query and assign it into my web template?

Hi All,
I need to create 3 views for my query and show that on my web template. I have never done this before. Can you please let me know step-by step procedure to create views for a query and how to show it on my WAD report?
Thanks,
Satyam

Hi Satyam,
Include the Dropdown Box web item in your web template. In the Web Item Parameters tab, select the Data Binding type as Query View Selection. Assign the Dataprovider from Selection of Query Views button below the Data Binding Type. You also have the option to Display Specific list of Query Views or all views based on that Query. For this you have to choose Selection of Query Views button. Here you can turn on Specific List of Query Views checkbox and select the Views depending on your requirement.
Regards,
Hari.

Key Figure Calculation in Query

Gurus,
How do i calcculate below in query basically i have 3 KF as dates below and want a CKF or formula variable
which calculates A - (IF B Not Empty then take B or else take C.)
Z = A - if (B != " '', B, C)
A = Key Figure
B = Key Figure
C = Key Figure
thanks

HI Zuben,
To acheive this
calculates A - (IF B Not Empty then take B or else take C.)
Z = A - if (B != " '', B, C)
A = Key Figure
B = Key Figure
C = Key Figure
Try this !!!!!!!
If u create a CKF,u will have operators in it,in that choose Boolean Operators,again in that chose
1)is not equal to
and
2)Equal to.
for ur calculations.
Z= Calculated Key Figure.
Z= A - (B NE 0)B + ( B EQ 0)C
Case One -- B NE 0
Z= A-(1 * B)+0
Z = A-B
Case Two -- B EQ 0
Z= A-(0 * B)+(1*C)
Z = A-C
I guess this is your requirement.

Sort Key Figure in a Query

I have a situation where I have to use a query (not possible to use a view - long story, but limitations on views make it so)
I have a simple query that has products on rows, and Month and Sales Value on the columns.
I want to sort the Sales value descending.
ie
product   Sales Value/8.2005
prod1      500
prod2      400
prod3      300
How do I tell the query to sort on the Key figure value descending as shown above???
I have managed to achieve this by putting a condition on that returns the top 100% of the query, however there must be a better way??? (although I am slowly losing confidence in SAP's thinking (or lack thereof))
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Regards
Richard

Hi JKyle,
Thanks for your response.
I am aware that you could sort by using the Properties on the context menu of the key figure, but this is no good for a default view without hacking the URL, which becomes quite tedious. (My users are not capable of entering even the simplest of variables, let alone using a context menu to sort every time they run a report.
You can also bookmark once it has been sorted, however have had problems with bookmarks disappearing in the past, and so I don't really consider this to be a solution either.
I guess I thought that this was such a fundamental requirement that it would be included, and that I was missing some setting somewhere when developing the query.
Thanks again for your response.

Convert characteristic values in key figures in a query

Hello all,
i have a query which provides some key figures and also some probabilties (defined as characteristics). I want to multiplicate the probabilities with the key figures and therefore I need to convert the characteristic values for the different probabilities in key figures.
What is the best wys to do this.
Any help would be great.
Best Regards,
Stefan from Munich/Germany

Stefan,
You need to create a formula variable of your characteristic.
In the Create Formula screen right mouse click on Formula Variable and go through the create process.
The characteristic needs to stay in your query (you can change it's display to No Display) to pass it's value to the formula.
Once you have done this you can use the formula Variable in any other formula.

Number of key Figures used in Query

Hi,
I would like to know the number of queries in a Query,
Is there any way to find out this?
We have nearly 100 queries, and we were asked to find out the top 5 queries in terms of number of key figures.
Thx.

Hi Thejo,
There is no direct way to do this using another BW query simply because the data is not stored in either Masterdata Info Objects/CUBE ODS. They are stored in BW system tables which are not directly accesible by any queries to build using the Query Builder.
Try to locate the system table that holds these Info (Keyfigures + Query Name) and do ABAP Query instead.

Jkyle

Key Figure Restrictions in Query

Hi all,
I've got this scenario on hand:
I want to display a Bex report with the a particular key figure (Actuals) restricted to only specific value COMBINATIONS of two characteristics (Cost Centre and Cost Element). i.e. The restrictions should only apply for each individual combination of the characteristics (e.g for Cost centre = S0561 and Cost Element = 70400 , another combination could be for Cost Centre = S0352 and Cost Element = 70610 ).
The challenge here is that if you restrict the key figure based on the individual characteristics (say, for Cost Centre = S0561 , S0352 and for Cost Element = 70400 , 70610) then it blocks off other figures from characteristic combinations that are should be allowed (e.g. Cost centre = S0561 and Cost Element = 70610 , and another combination of Cost Centre = S0352 and Cost Element = 70400).
Any suggestions on how to handle this, typically from a previous experience, will be appreciated.
Regards,
Uche

Hi Uche,
A workaround for this scenario would be to include a hidden keyfigure for every characteristic combination. (If there are not many combinations)
For e.g.
Hidden KF1 Restricted on Cost centre = S0561 and Cost Element = 70400
Hidden KF2 Restricted on Cost Centre = S0352 and Cost Element = 70610
Then another final key figure, which is visible and is a formula KF
Actuals Formula = Hidden KF1 + Hidden KF2 + ..

How to create a key figure in SNP plannignbook which generate FA type order

Hello
trying to create a Key Figure in SNP planning book which generates FA type orders
could kindly suggest how to do it?
thanks
elena

Hi,
You would be having different key figures in SNP. The type of orders that you see in Key figure is driven by type of categories or category group that you assign in planning area to each key figure. You can modifiy these cateogry groups in IMG settings.
When you manually create a forecast through a report then automatically you will see those orders in key figures where you have assigned the category FA.
Hope this helps.

Exception color can not display at another key figure in BEx query desinger

I have a report requirement, the user want to display the average price on each month ,such as:
Jan.   Feb. Mar. Apr. etc.
100    105    104   95   ....
and the user want to compare each other months with Jan's price.
they want to display the exception color when the rise or down rate greater or less than 5%.
Now ,I can only change the output structure such as:
Jan. Feb. Rate2-1                 Mar. Rate3-1                 etc.
100   105   (105-100)/100=5% 104    (104-100)/100=4% ....
Now I can set Exception on the formula Rate2-1 Rate3-1....
But the Exception color can only display on Rate2-1,Rate3-1...
and Not the Keyfigure Feb. Mar...
I am using the BI 7.0 and the new Query Designer.
Who can help me to solve this question .
Thanks.
Yours Youming.Zhao

Hi,
its simply not supported for BEx Analyzer. Exception reporting on another key figure is only possible for Web Reporting.
Check this actual SAP Help Link:
[Restrictions in the BEx Analyzer|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/45/5038f28cce08d2e10000000a11466f/content.htm]
Sorry that i dont have a better answer

Lock key figure with a query

Hi BW gurus,
I have created a calculate key figure 'CKF1' in the development system and added to a query 'Q1'. The same calculated key figure is presnt in the production system and is being used by some queries.
As we know that BW handles the duplicate calculate key figures on its own. However, to transport Q1 and CFK1, the system requires that SFK1 should be locked by/for Q1. I need help in doing that.
One liner: How to lock CKF1 with Q1?
Thanks.

Hi Anooj,
this is my understanding :: u made ckf1 as global.if u make it as a local then other queries can't use this.

Calling query doc. (text file) from a web template with JavaScript

Hi,
I would like to have an explanation of the following:
My goal is to develop a solution within a dynamic web template that supports calling of query documentation (description and purpose of the certain report). This query documentation will be provided from a textfile(e.g .csv) and presented under the information tab applying a text element web item. This will be done with query technical name acting as key with the following column structure:
Technical name Description Purpose
I really would appreciate if anyone could provide me with a more or less detailed solution proposal for this. Javascript etc.?
Thanx in advance

You can use the command line tool cURL instead of a GUI browser.

Problem in display of char. and key figure for yearly query

Hello all,
I got a query in which i have to do restriction on
Calendar Day/Month in Rows under Material which is a Characteristics
So it should be
                                                           PACKAGE QUANTITY
                                        JAN FEB MAR   APRIL.......DEC
PACK1
PACK2
PACK3
PACK4 for current year
PACK4 for prior YEar
Now the months display is not pre decided, it can be anything as per the input of user.
So i have to restrict it on Calendar month for Material twice
In current year , just introducing the Interval range variable
In previous year, same restricition with offset -12
Now the problem is while displaying it shows
                                       JAN'06 JAN'07 FEB'06 FEB'07 MAR'06 MAR'07........
PACK1
PACK2
PACK3
PACK4 for current year
PACK4 for prior YEar
Which is not desirable.
I only want value for Jan in one column
and for previous year and current year in different rows thats it.
If i remove Calendar year/month from columns there is no way I CAN DISPLAY MONTHS .
How to achieve this.
Please suggest.

Kartikey,
Rusty's suggestion wont work - using two characteristics for year and month will have the same effect as the position you are in at the moment.
ie..
2007     Jan.07     Feb.07    Mar.07   Apr.07
2006 -
Jan 06 Feb 06 Mar 06
If you have the posting period of 01 - 02 - 03 (just the period number only, no year) then your query will display
2007-01-02-03-04
2006-01-02-03-04
