BEx formula change not working in existing Analysis for Olap/Analysis for Excel reports

Hello all,
I posted this in Analysis for OLAP, but there has been no response so I'm hoping perhaps you BEx experts can help me.
I had to modify a formula in a Bex query to have it calculate the results of the formula by summation.
I checked the query using BEx Analyzer and it summed correctly. If I create a new analysis for olap report, it sums correctly.
If I modify an existing report, it does not pick up the change. Existing Analysis for Excel reports also do not pick up the new summary calculation.
Using the CMC, I edited the connection and reselected the Bex query, but that did not work either.
Here it is working in the query:
Line Discount is a formula with logic checking to see if "product list price total amount" is 0, set the line discount to 0; otherwise calculate it as "product list price total amount" - Net Sale. So the total needs to sum of the line discounts (0+2820+2820 = 5640) and not be the Overall result "product list price total amount" - Overall Result "net sale" (13960-96720= -82760).
Here it is in an existing Webi report - working:
Here is what is happening in an existing Analysis for OLAP report - not working:
I also tried to unselect Line Discount as a key figure from the existing report and reselect it, but that did not work.
I'd like to find a solution so that all the reports that use this query won't have to be rewritten.
I'm on BW 7.0 EP 1 SP 10 and BI 4.0 SP7 Patch 5.
Thank you for your help,
Susan

Hi,
Apply Exception aggregation on line discount formula--Exception aggregation as Total---Reference characteristic as Promega product.
Make sure to refresh the webi report once after the changes has been done.
If this does not work then you can apply summation calculation for that column at webi level as well.

My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi

Following a question solved on March 24 by LaPastenague, but gone bad again.
Apple AirPort Time Capsule
I felt the need for a physical backup of my data, as I would not completely trust the different clouds. I use, and have used Dropbox for 4-5 years and are very satisfied with that, but I am still not sure if or when a political lunatic will shut off the internet.
I purchased the Apple AP Time Capsule 2T, because all my other stuff are Apple, and that it's wireless. My old backup is Maxtor 300 GB.
Since we stay 2-3 weeks on two locations, one in Norway and one in Sweden (two different countries) we must use Mobile Broadband 4G, cables or fibre connections are useless for us, and we don't have it up to the houses. I have one mini router for each country, we bring with us iPhones, iPads, iMac, Apple TV, APExpress. When we pass the boarder I change the mini router, and the system continues working perfect on the WiFi, except the APExpress that needs to be reconfigured, but then it works.
The APTC was difficult to make working as it would not accept to be in an existing network, but with good help from the Apple Community, LaPastenague, with forcing the TC connect to the APE with Ethernet cable in bridge mode, ref "My Time Capsule does not work with existing WiFi" from March 24, the problem was solved and all gadgets worked together in a perfect harmony, until we changed location.
Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
I have a slight feeling that the two WiFi bands are making the trouble as during the configuration of the TC sometime the last figure 6 and 7 pops up, and that has something two do with the two different 2,4 and 5 GHZ bands
So, I am curious if you have any idea ?
I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?

I can deal with the last question first and easily.
I am thinking of returning the TC if I don't make it work now, but how do I delete all the data that's on it?
Open the airport utility .. go to the disk tab and select erase.
When you select erase you will get mulitiple options.
Quick removes the file table but does not delete the files,, it takes 2min or less.
A Zero out data is the secure way,, by writing 0 ie low level drive format.
It can take several hours..
7 pass will take a week.. not recommended..
35 pass erase is ridiculous.. it would take a month.. put an ax through the TC. It is quick and better.
Now, as I have my second WiFi network, and the APExspress is reconfigured, it's like the TC thinks, I am the base boss here, I am not taking orders from APE one more time, and it simply does not work, not only that, it fluctuates all the time.
The fact that it did work and has now failed might point to faulty unit.
The only way to tell is reset it properly to factory and start over.
Universal Factory Reset.. any model TC or AE.
Unplug your TC/AE from power or turn off at the power point.
Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. (this is often difficult without a 2nd person or a 3rd arm).
Release it when the status light flashes rapidly. If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have missed it and try again.
Note..
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations of the router.
No files are deleted on the hard disk in a TC.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Generally having multiple wireless AP should not cause problems.. but it is better to set channels manually.. so it doesn't go beserk rotating channels.
Remember to keep all names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
Sadly though the Apple routers have no logging now and no SNMP and almost nothing to help diagnose a problem, so if it continues .. take it back to apple.. they have given you no other method of fixing it.

Formula is not working for key figures ( cumulative )

hI
I have Qty A and qty B key figures and changed property to cumulative in query designer . two key figures are working fine . I ahve another key figure which is formula ( Qty A + Qty B) .
Issue is
Formula ( Qty A + Qty B) is showing before cumulative values result . it is not showing cumulative total .
Ex :
                   Before cumulation prperty for Qty A and Qty B
                      Qty A       Qty B         Total ( formula ( Qty A+ Qty B)
                        10            20                  30
                         8              7                    15
    After changing propert cumulative in query designer for Qty A and Qty B
                     Qty A       Qty B           Total ( Formula 9Qty A + Qty B)
                       10            20                30
                        18           27                 15 ( still it is show 15 like above example means formula is not working on cumulative values)
Formula is working on before cumulative value . it is not taking cumulative values.
Please helo to resolve this issue . I think I need to change some prperty in query designer.
Appriciate your response.
Thanks

Policies assigned to groups - membership changes not working

I have a single ZESM IR8 server setup.
All security throughout my environment, ZESM and otherwise, is based on group membership.
If I change a user from one group to another group this change does not reflect in their policy assignment.
Scenario: GroupA = standard user policy, GroupB = power user policy.
UserA was first in Group A and therefore got the standard user policy.
UserA now requires the power user policy.
Remove UserA from GroupA and add UserA to GroupB (in iManager).
UserA does NOT get the "power user" policy that is assigned to GroupB
Am aware that I can assign the policy at a user level but this is NOT an option in my environment. All security assignments MUST happen at a group level.

What you observed is the expected behavior.
ZESM doesn't updates group membership in real time once a policy has been published. I've described this behavior on previous posts.
What the MC does behind the scenes when you click "Publish" on a container or group object is to assign the policy individually to each member/user. For groups, it resolves membership at the time the policy is published then the MC iterates among each member assigning the policy to each of them. That's why you don't see updates once the policy is published.
Try Updating the published policy to see if that works. From the docs:
Updating a Published Policy
Once a policy has been published to the user(s) or computer(s), simple updates can be maintained by editing the components in a policy, and re-publishing. For example, if the ZENworks Endpoint Security Management Administrator needs to change the WEP key for an access point, the adminstrator only needs to edit the key, save the policy, and click Publish. The affected end-users and computers receive the updated policy (and the new key) at their next check-in.

There is a world of information in these forums if you use the search function near the top right of this page. Just type in NAS for example and you get many threads on the subject (marked with a green checkmark if it solved the question) another example would be Airport Exterme and sound system. Once you formulate your ideas better then specific questions can be addressed one at a time. You may find that a less expensive choice for a server might be a mac mini.

You don't need a license or a serial number to download Lightroom, which is the problem you state you are having. What is the license you purchased, anyway? Can you give us details?

BEx 7 Exceptions not working

Hi experts,
i had a BEx Query in 3.5 that was displayed in BEx WAD 3.5
i have saved the Query in BEx 7 and created a WAD 7
in the query the were some exceptions on a key figure.
in WAD 3.5 on the query or in RSRT the exception works and displayed.
if i run the query (Query Designer 7) or the WAD 7 on the query,
the exceptions does not works and not displayed.
i am working in BW 7.01, SP 10.
and Portal 7.01 SP 7.
Thanks in advanced,
Or.

Hi,
You need to create the exception in portal side.
Status Exception:
This exception affects result cells. This setting is especially suitable
for absolute keyfigures. If you set a dynamic filter for any
characteristic used in the query, the exception will not be applied to
the result cells as the result changes and invalidates the exception
threshold defined. You can always override this behaviour for a specific
characteristic by defining a characteristic context. You can do this in
the query designer itself or in the exception wizard during runtime
(step 5 in the wizard or tab 'Cell Restrictions' in the Query Designer).
Trend Exception:
This exception affects all cells. This setting is especially suitable
for relative keyfigures. If you now set a dynamic filter for any default
characteristic, the exception will be applied to the result cells.
However, if you have defined a characteristic context (Cell
Restrictions) with 'Totals Only' for a specific charecteristic and you
now set a dynamic filter for it, the exception will not be applied to
the result cells.

Formula is not working in report

Hi Friends,
This is formula iam using in report.but in output iam getting only value 1.
Iam not getting other values. I think my OR condition is not working.
( ( ( ( ( 'KF1' < 0.1000 ) * 1 OR ( ( 'KF1' >= 0.1000 ) AND ( 'KF1' < 0.1200 ) ) * 2 ) OR ( ( 'KF1' >= 0.1200 ) AND ( 'KF1' < 0.1500 ) ) * 3 ) OR ( ( 'KF1' >= 0.1500 ) AND ( 'KF1' < 0.1800 ) ) * 4 ) OR ( 'KF1' >= 0.1800 ) * 5 )
Iam chenged open and close brackets....but it is not working.
How to use if condition or else condition in formula?
How can i get values in output accourding to range?
Thanks in advance
Ramu

Hi Ramu,
If condition can be used in Formulae like
Conditional Calculations (IF-THEN-ELSE)
You can make conditional calculations using Boolean operators An expression in the form
IF<Logic Expression> THEN <Expression1> ELSE <Expression2> can also be made using a formula in the form
<Logic Expression> * <Expression1> + NOT <Logic Expression> * <Expression2>
Example: IF Actual Costs > Plan Costs THEN Plan Costs + Plan Deviation ELSE Actual Costs
can be written as the following formula:
(Actual Costs > Plan Costs)* (Plan Costs + Plan Deviation) + (NOT (Actual Costs > Plan Costs)) * Actual Costs
or
(Actual Costs > Plan Costs)* (Plan Costs + Plan Deviation) + (Actual Costs <= Plan Costs) * Actual Costs
Please explain your case as its complex ...
Thanks
