BEx Formula Basic Function ' High '

Question

Hi Friends,
Can you pls help me what is the use of  New Formula > Functions > Basic Functions > High.
Pls suggest as how we can make use of it.
pls provide me if there are any training doccuments available on New formula functions like,
Basic Functions
Percentage functions
Data Functions
Mathematical Functions
Trigonometric Functions
Boolean Operators
Your valuable inputs will be rewarded.
Thanks,
Chetan

Answer 1

Percentage Variance (%)
&#9679;      <Operand1> % <Operand2>
This gives the percentage variance between operand 1 and operand 2. It is identical to:
Formula 100 * (<Operand1> - <Operand2>) / abs(<Operand2>) , if <Operand2> is not equal to 0 and the character for “Division by 0” if <Operand2> is equal to 0.
Plan Sales % Actual Sales specifies the percentage difference between the plan sales and the actual sales.
Percentage Share (%A)
&#9679;      <Operand1> %A <Operand2>
This gives the percentage share of operand 1 and operand 2. It is identical to formula 100 * <Operand1> / abs(<Operand2>) , if <Operand2> is not equal to 0 and the character for “Division by 0” if <Operand2> is equal to 0.
"Fixed costs" %A "costs" expresses the proportion of the total cost of a product that is the fixed cost.
Percentage Share of Result (%CT)
&#9679;      %CT <Operand>
This shows how high the percentage share is, with regard to the result. The result is the outcome of aggregating the second highest results level (interim result).
If a characteristic has been drilled down in both the rows and the columns, this reference is not unique. The system displays a warning and the relevant symbol for Data Does Not Exist.
Percentage Share of Overall Result (%GT)
&#9679;      %GT <Operand>
This shows how high the percentage share is with regard to the overall result. The overall result is the outcome of aggregating the highest results level. Dynamic filters (filters that were not specified in the Query Designer) also play a role in calculating the overall result.
Percentage Share of Query Result (%RT)
&#9679;      %RT <Operand>
This is the same as %GT.
Unlike the process for calculating the overall result, dynamic filters are not used in the calculation of the query result. This means that the calculation always normalizes to the same value, irrespective of the filter status and the navigational state.
Value = 1 if operand <> 0, otherwise 0 (numerator)
&#9679;      COUNT(<Expression>)
Returns value 1 if the <expression> is <> 0, otherwise 0.
Processing a Value as a Date
&#9679;      DATE
The value is seen as the number of days from 01.01.0000 onwards and is output as a date.
The value can be between 0 and one million, which results in a date between 01.01.0000 and 27.11.2738.
Value = 1 if operand = 0, otherwise 0
&#9679;      DELTA(<Expression>)
Returns value 1 if the <expression> is 0, otherwise 0.
This function is identical to the NOT operator and should no longer be used.
NDIV0 (x): Equals 0 when divided by 0, otherwise x
&#9679;      NDIV(<Expression>)
Is 0 if the calculation of <expression> causes a division by 0. Otherwise the result is the value of the expression. Used to avoid error messages or so that you can continue to calculate with a defined result.
Values Without Dimensions (Without Units)
&#9679;      NODIM(<Expression>)
Returns purely numerical values of <expression> and suppresses units and currencies.
NOERR (x): Is equal to 0 for undefined calculations, otherwise x
&#9679;      NOERR(<Expression>)
Is 0 if the calculation of <expression> leads to an arithmetical error. Otherwise the result is the value of the expression. Used to avoid error messages or so that you can continue to calculate with a defined result.
NOERR(SQRT(-1)) = 0
Result
&#9679;      SUMCT <Operand>
Returns the result of the operand to all rows or columns (more information: Percentage Functions % CT).
&#9679;      SUMGT <Operand>
Returns the overall result of the operand
&#9679;      SUMRT <Operand>
Returns the query result of the operand
Processing a Value as a Time
&#9679;      TIME
The TIME operator takes any key figure or (partial) formula and makes a key figure of type TIME. Go to the formula editor and, for the operator, double-click the Process Value as Time data function and, for the operand, double-click the key figure you want. For example, the formula is then TIME(Sales).
The system cuts off the decimal places, interprets the value as seconds, and displays the value in format +-hh:mm:ss. For example, -4812 is displayed as –1:20:12.
Any number is seen as the number of seconds from 00:00:00 onwards and is output in hours, minutes, and seconds. A key figure of type TIME with value 0 is displayed as 00:00:00.
Negative times are permitted: With a negative number, the system calculates from 00:00:00 backwards.
You can enter any number of hours. The system does not restart at 0 after 24 hours.
