BEx browser: change decimal separator

Hi
How can I change the decimal/thousand separator of BEx browser (show USD 1'000.00 instead of USD 1.000,00)?
According to another thread in SDN the decimal notation is supposed to depend on the user configuration in the backend (su01). But changes there do not affect the presentation in BEx browser.
I also tried to change the system (Windows) configuration of the portal server, without any effect.
Thanks for your help.
Kind regards
Christoph

Hi
Thanks for your response
I tried both - without any effect. I also tried all the options in rsa1 -> properties of the key figure.
Any other suggestions?
Kind regards

How change decimal separator from . to ,

Hi
I need change the decimal separator from . to ,
and apply ZZZ.ZZ9,99
thanks

There are a number of ways in which you can change these characters. They can be changed for all jobs by updating the jfmerge.ini, or for a single job by using command line options.
You can update the jfmerge.ini either in an editor, or by using Central Control.
In an editor you will update the entries for CurrencyComma (, by default) and CurrencyDot (. by default).
In Central Control go to the 'Configuration' menu item, then select 'Configure Central and Agents', then select 'Print Agent' and Edit. Then select the 'Currency' button. You can now modify any of the currency options.
On the command line you can enter -acucc=. for the thousand separator, and -acucd=, for the decimal separator.
For more info on these options see the -acu Option Arguments in the Print Agent documentation.

Select changing decimal separator type

I'm consulting a database which use comma "," as a decimal separator for numbers. I would like to make a select which takes those numbers using point "." as a decimal separator.
for example I have a value 1,34 in the database, I would the make a select which returns this value as 1.34

Non usa decimal separator

How can I change decimal separator in DIAdem reports to print it according to my regional settings?

Hi Juliano,
Depending where in REPORT the number comes up, you either enter in a format string of "d,ddd" or you use the str() function with the same format string.
It would help to know more about your report,

How to change color in BEx Browser?

Hello Friends,
How to change color in BEx Browser?
My browser shows all the report description with pink color. I want to change the color.
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Bhavin,
It seems the patches for BW Add-On are being kept pretty much in sync for 6.20 and 6.40 (i.e they seem to be released at around the same time, even that the patch level numbers are different).
However, at BW Add-on Patch level 4 on a SAPgui640 machine, we didn't have the "pink font" problem.
It may be that BW 3.5 Add-On patch 6 will have a similar effect for you - it may be worth trying.
Here is the link to the BW3.50 patch 6... https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~swdc/012002523100000108232005D/bw350_6-10001615.exe?_ACTION=DL_DIRECT
The patch 6 referred to above is for the BW3.50 Add-On - the SAPgui patch is typically a different number (the 11 that you mention is the SAPgui patch level).
Best regards,
Pat M.

Bex Browser layout changes

Hello Gurus,
We are using BeX browser [3.x version] as a launching pad for our BW queries. In one of the application area's, we have a main role and within that 3 sub-roles. The layout of these sub-roles and the reprts under them in the browser are as follows. Role 1 is present in the left hand top corner of the browser. Role 2 is in the right hand top corner while Role 3 is below role 2 in the right hand side. Now Role 2 has got many reports under it and it so happens that the reports in the role 2 overflow and merge with the reports in Role 3 in the browser. The users now find it difficultto launch those reports at the bottom of Role2 & on the top of Role 3 as they appear mergerd together.
Now we were able to move Role 3 to appear under Role 1 in our development system [the browser in our production system is locked for changes] and were able to save it. But my question is, how do I move this change from Development to Production? I don't find any option to create a transport request in the browser.
Do I need to save the main role in a transport request, then make the changes in the browser and save it? Will my changes to the browser layout be saved in a TR if I do the above steps?
Thanks

Change of decimal separator

Is it possible to change the decimal separator for importing data?
I have data with , as separator can I change the default Point to comma?
Thanks for your interest
Thomas Pfeiffer
Message Edited by Thomasrp on 02-16-2006 10:10 AM
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I really don't understand your problem, because normally DIAdem can import both types of decimal separators... If you use the ASCII Import the important is that you use the proper configuration for your file type… and if this file uses the comma as a decimal separator, the delimiter character between data will not be a comma… DIAdem should import the data with no problem, but on DIAdem you will see always the "." (dot)
If your problem is that on the DIAdem View you want to see the "," comma you can do the following:
- Right mouse click, and select "Table Settings"
- Change the numeric format, for example "dd,ddd" then you will see only 3 decimal places and the decimal separator will be the comma.
Hope this helps you,
Marc.

Changes not reflecting in Bex Browser

Hi experts,
I made changes to standard web template defined in SPRO setting. Now because this standard web template so this change is getting reflected in all web templates.
But when user is executing these WAD templates through Bex Browser then changes are not getting reflected.
Could you please advice some solution.
I checked standard web templates is same for Bex Browser also.
Quick reply is appreciable and points is also waiting for you.

please clear the HTTP server cache using SMICM and the changes will become visible. If you are on WAD 7.0 then clear the cache in the JAVA stack also.
WAD templates are rendered in HTML and they tend to be cached within th app servers - if you make small changes to the same - the changes are not visible until the server cache is clleared.

How to change the local decimal separator on windows xp OS ?

Hi all,
I would like to known how to change programmatically with LV8.5 the local decimal separator ? I want to force this parameter to the point separator, so to be sure that it's not the comma (if it's the comma when installing the executable, the ascii files are not read properly).
Thanks.
Wilfried.

Hi Wilfried,
you can use the format code "%.;" to get points as decimal separator in each string formatting function.
This is the important one. Put it at the beginning of every format specifier!
Some functions have a boolean control 'use local decimator' make sure this is 'F'

hi
Bex Browser
The Business Explorer Browser (BEx Browser) makes it possible for you to access all document types of the Business Information Warehouse that are assigned to your role or that you have stored in your favorites. You can select and open documents assigned to you in the BEx Browser or store and manage new documents in the BEx Browser.
Document types that you can work with in the BEx Browser are:
· BW workbooks
· Documents that are stored in the Business Document Service (BDS)
· Links (references to file system, shortcuts)
· Links to internet sites (URLs)
· SAP transaction calls.
· Web applications and Web templates
· Crystal Reports
Bex Analyser
The Business Explorer Analyzer (BEx Analyzer) is the analysis and reporting tool of the Business Explorer that is embedded in Microsoft Excel.
Features
You can call up the BEx Query Designer in the BEx Analyzer, in order to define queries. Subsequently, you can analyze the selected InfoProvider data by navigation to the query created in the Query Designer and create different query views of the data. You can add the different query views for a query or for different queries to a work book and save them there. You can save the workbook in your favorites or in your role on the BW Server. You can also save the workbook locally on your computer.
Beyond that, you can precalculate the workbook and distribute it by e-mail to recipeients or you can export it to the Enterprise Portal and make it accessible to other employees in the company.
You can start queries in a standard view (with a Standard Web Template set up in Customizing) in the Web browser and forward the URL or continue to navigate on the Web. Similarly, you can export the Web query to MS Excel 2000.
Overview of the Functional Area of the BEx Analyzer:
·        BEx toolbar
You access the functions of the BEx Analyzer from the BEx toolbar, which takes you to the BEx Open dialog box where you can open existing queries, or to the BEx Query Designer where you can create new queries or change existing queries.
·        Evaluating Query Data
The BEx Analyzer offers convenient functions for evaluating and presenting InfoProvider data interactively. In the BEx Analyzer, you can add queries to workbooks, navigate within them and refresh the data. You can also process the queries further in Microsoft Excel or display them in the Web browser in a default view.
Navigation of a query allows you, for example, to filter characteristics on a single value, drilldown on all values for a characteristic, regroup characteristics and key figures in the rows and columns of the results area, or hide key figures. Navigation results in different views of the InfoProvider data. In addition, a range of further functions is available which allow you to edit a query interactively (for example, sorting, cumulated output, among others). In addition, you can use the editing functions in Microsoft Excel in order to set up individual format templates, to print results areas, or to create graphics.
·        Queries in Workbooks
Queries are inserted into workbooks so you can display them. When you insert a query, a link is made between the cell areas of the worksheet and the data of the InfoProvider upon which the query is based. A link therefore exists between the Business Explorer and the Business Information Warehouse Server (BW Server).
When inserting a query into the workbook, a VBA routine is automatically generated in the workbook. You can also connect the Business Explorer with your own VBA programs (Visual Basic for Applications).
You can create workbook templates, into which you can insert your queries. Workbook templates can contain pre-determined items for the area of the query, formatting settings, logos, VBA macros, and so on.
·        Precalculating workbooks
You can precalculate and distribute workbooks with the BEx Broadcaster, which is a Web application you get to form the BEx toolbar. The system generates MS Excel workbooks with historical data. You determine the time for precalculation yourself: You can have workbooks precalculated at a predefined time or they can be precalculated whenever data in the underlying InfoProvider changes. You can have the precalculated workbooks sent by e-mail or you can export them into the Enterprise Portal, where you can make them available to employees within your company.
Activities
To start the BEx Analyzer, choose Start ® Programs ® SAP Front-end Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Business Explorer Analyzer.
You can also access the BEx Analyzer via SAP Easy Access ® SAP Business Information Warehouse ® SAP Menu ® Business Explorer ® Analyzer or in the Business Explorer Browser using the Business Explorer Analyzer symbol in the menu bar.
Hope this will solve your issu

Decimal Separator in SELECT Clause

Hi
I have the following decimal format parameters:
SQL> select value
2 from v$nls_parameters
3 where parameter = 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS';
VALUE
If I show a number with decimal I get a comma as the decimal separator
SQL> select 10/100 from dual;
10/100
,1
But if I use a decimal separator in the SELECT clause I get:
SQL> select 100 * 1,1 from dual;
100*1 1
100 1
It doesn't work. But using a period as the decimal separator works:
SQL> select 1.1 * 100 from dual;
1.1*100
110
Maybe this is something I've never had to deal with before but I thought that the numeric format applied to the sql results and also the numbers that you used in the sql clauses.
Regards,
Néstor Boscán

Hi,Néstor,
user594312 wrote:
... I thought that the numeric format applied to the sql results and also the numbers that you used in the sql clauses.No; it applies to results, and it can affect implicit conversions, but it doesn't apply to SQL code.
The period (or dot, '.') is always the decimal separator in numeric literals. There is no way to change that.
Think how confusing it would be if it did apply to SQL code! For example:
WHERE   num_col IN (1,2)Are we comparing num_col to 1 value or 2 values? Whichever it is, what if we wanted to do the opposite?
If you really wanted to use comma as the decimal separator, you could have to use strings, not numbers, and that could be a lot less efficient.
For example:
SELECT 100 * TO_NUMBER ('1,1')    -- This assumes your NLS settings are correct
FROM    dual;Of course, efficiency won't be an issue when you're selecting 1 row from dual.

Trinidad-config.xml, number-grouping-separator and decimal-separator

Hi,
According to my application locale, numbers are formatted as 1.234,56
Now I want numbers to be formatted the US flavour: 1,234.56
Here is my trinidad-config.xml file contents:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<trinidad-config xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/config">
<skin-family>mySkin</skin-family>
<number-grouping-separator>,</number-grouping-separator>
<decimal-separator>.</decimal-separator>
</trinidad-config>
The file above is declared in the web.xml file (although I'm not pretty sure this is really necessary):
<context-param>
<param-name>javax.faces.CONFIG_FILES</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/trinidad-config.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
And an example of a numerical input text:
<af:inputText value="#{row.bindings.Salary.inputValue}" label="#{bindings.EmployeesView3.hints.Salary.label}"
required="#{bindings.EmployeesView3.hints.Salary.mandatory}" columns="#{bindings.EmployeesView3.hints.Salary.displayWidth}"
maximumLength="#{bindings.EmployeesView3.hints.Salary.precision}" shortDesc="#{bindings.EmployeesView3.hints.Salary.tooltip}"
id="it5">
<f:validator binding="#{row.bindings.Salary.validator}"/>
<af:convertNumber pattern="#{bindings.EmployeesView3.hints.Salary.format}" />
</af:inputText>
Where the pattern is set at Entity Object level: Employees EO > Salary attribute > UI Hints > Format: #,##0.00
But it doesn't work. I don't know what I'm missing... Please, help!
JDev 11.1.1.3.0

Hello. With my application locale, numbers are formatted as 1234,56

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1251"?>
<trinidad-config xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/config">
<skin-family>mySkin</skin-family>
<number-grouping-separator> </number-grouping-separator>
<decimal-separator>.</decimal-separator>
</trinidad-config>
On my page i use af:outputText with af:convertNumber as shown below:
<af:outputText value="1234567,890" id="ot2">
<af:convertNumber currencySymbol="USD" minFractionDigits="2"
groupingUsed="true" type="currency"
maxFractionDigits="2"/>
</af:outputText>
Output: *1 234 567,89 USD*
Why decimal separator hasn't changed?
Byt the way. With convertNumber type "percent" output will be *1 234 567.89%*

ODI-HFM issue with decimal separator

Hi all,
We are extracting data from an HFM application A and loading into an HFM application B.
Example:
Data extracted from applicaiton A = 21.742.139,55
Data loaded to application B (verified from Explore Data and Smart View) = 2.174.213.955,00
Is data loading with ODI-HFM taking the regional settings?
Any suggestions?
If we extract data with HFM Client (logged on with the same user configured in HFM Data server) from application A and load it into application B, data is correct in application B.
Current configuration is:
- User preferences for HFM Application A
     * Decimal separator = ","
     * Thousands separator = "."
- User preferences for HFM Application B
     * Decimal separator = ","
     * Thousands separator = "."
- Regional settings of the server where the agent is running (English US)
     * Decimal separator = "."
     * Thousands separator = ","
This setting is the same for all HFM application servers
- ODI Datastore HFMDatastore
     * Decimal separator set to "," (this setting was changed to see if solved the issue)
- ODI Datastore for staging table
     * Decimal separator set to "," (this setting was changed to see if solved the issue)
- Language Settings for DB (American English)
Thanks in advance!

Hi Pls Use This
    For Decimal Separator other than . we need to Code to Convert , See This Code Below and Do the Code
Private Function ReturnQty(ByVal Qty As String) As String
Dim strQty As String
Dim strSQL As String
Dim strSeprtr As String
Dim objRS As SAPbobsCOM.Recordset
strSQL = "SELECT ThousSep FROM OADM"
Set objRS = oSBC.oDICompany.GetBusinessObject(BoRecordset)
objRS.DoQuery (strSQL)
If Not objRS.EOF Then
        strSeprtr = objRS.Fields.Item("ThousSep").Value
End If
If strSeprtr = "," Then
ReturnQty = Qty
ElseIf strSeprtr = "'" And Len(Qty) <= 6 Then
Qty = Replace(Qty, ",", ".")
'Qty = Replace(Qty, ",", ".")
ReturnQty = Qty
Qty = Qty
ElseIf strSeprtr = "'" Then
Qty = Replace(Qty, "'", "")
'Qty = Replace(Qty, ",", ".")
ReturnQty = Qty
Qty = Qty
ElseIf strSeprtr = "." And Len(Qty) <= 6 Then
Qty = Replace(Qty, ".", ",")
Qty = Replace(Qty, ",", ".")
ReturnQty = Qty
