BEx Query BEx Analyzer : Decimal Rounding

I have created a query with a calculated key figure in. The calculated key figure is made by adding together two restricted key figures. The calculated key figure and both the restricted key figures are set to display as two decimal places only. When I use the web analyser to ruh the query it's fine. However when I put the query into the Excel based BEx Anayzer the format of the cell shows a rounding of two decimal places but the actual data in the cell has more e.g. the cell displays as 0.25 but the actual content of the cell is 0.243. Anybody any ideas what I can do about this?

Try changing the Excel settings.
Excel toolbar -> 'Format' -> 'Style' -> choose the dropdown box -> Modify
Then refresh the query again.

Unwanted LOVs - Universe on a BEx query on top of a Multiprovider

BO XI 3.1
BW 7.01
OLAP Universe on a BEx query
BEx query on top of a Multiprovider
Multiprovider on 2 DSOs; lets say DSO1 and DSO2
BEx query has a global filter for "INFOPROVIDER = DSO1"
BEx query has a user input variable defined for "Field1" (Field1 is present in both DSOs)
In BEx, F4 on Field1 variable entry gives the values of Field1 from DSO1. (which is what we want)
Expected LOVs for the generated prompt for Field1 in the WEBI report: Values of Field1 from DSO1
Problem:
Actual LOVs returned in WEBI report: Values of Field1 from both DSO1 and DSO2
Has anyone faced this before?
Thank you

That is correct. The BEx properties do not carry over to the BO side. In Webi 3.1 here are the default selections for LOVs (as far as I know)
OLAP universe against BEx query on an infoprovider (Infocube, DSO, Multiprovider) - Only values in Infoprovider
OLAP universe against BEx query on an Infoset - Values in the master data table
My understanding now is
OLAP universe against BEx query on a Multiprovider - Only values in ALL Infoproviders under the Multiprovider

I have seen this note before and according to it you can set an RSADMIN parameter MDX_JOIN_CUBE_DIME and have more control over the LOVs.
MDX_JOIN_CUBE_DIME = "A" -> The read mode for all LOVs is Only values in master data
MDX_JOIN_CUBE_DIME = "I" -> The read mode for LOVs is either master data or infoprovider depending on the infoobject settings

Well, that would work but it would defeat the purpose of having a Multiprovider for logical partitioning, wouldn't it?

Problem about printing special character in bex query analyzer

Hi,
in bex query analyzer i have created one restricted key figure , in which i have substracted two date with the help of replacement path.
So i got result.
But i am facing one problem. when in both date, if one date is null or # then it is giving some big value like -734567.
But i want some special character like X instead of this big values.
So how can i do this?
With the help of if and else it can be done.
But how can we print special character in report.
Please help me
Thank you in advance

hi,
You cannot show X in a formula result. You can highlight the row using exception.
Still if you want to show X in the result then you need to create a formula variable on a char which returns X value all the times.
Then you can use the three formula variable to write a formula so that it shows the difference:
date1 -- formula variable
date2 -- formula variable
charx -- formula variable.
the formula will be
Count(date1)Count(date2)(date1 - date2) + charx *(count (delta(date1) + delta(date2))).
this would return the X value if any of the dates are empty otherwise their difference.

Hi,
There has been some escalation with regards to similar problem with the early version of BI 4.x.
I would advise you to download the latest version and latest patch in your QA environment and do some testing with the same query.

BEx Query Analyzer Value Display of +/- Sign

The KeyFigure values in the BEx Analyzer are being displayed as 512.740000000- with a negative sign in the back. I tried to change the settings in Bex Query Designer -- Query Properties -- Value Display to "Before the Number -123.45" setting. It looks like it doesn't have any effect.
Please let me know if I need to change the setting from the backend, we are on BI 7.0.

When using BW Bex query analyzer users cannot change reporting queries ....

Issue: When using BW Bex query analyzer users cannot change reporting queries. Any attempt to change queries results in errors.
Error: BEx Query Designer: Run-time error '-2147221499 (80040005) Fatal Error - Terminating
Impact: Business reporting is currently being negatively impacted because users cannot modify queries, cannot change filters for fiscal period and fiscal year.
OS / MS Office Suite being used: Vista & Office 2007
Backend System: BW 2.0B
Frontend System: Being a large organization, we have a controlled environment wherein all users will have the following applications installed by default:
1. SAP Client Base 7.10
2. SAP BW 3.5 Patch 4
3. SAP BI 7.10 Patch 900
4. SAP GUI 7.10 Patch 12
Does anyone has any idea as to why we are getting this error? Is it a Vista issue? Is it a front-end issue?

Just a thought - did you guys apply any Microsoft security patches before this started happening - we had a similar issue in other SAP application due to MS security update. Raise an OSS with SAP

Bex Query is not refereshing in analyzer..

Hi Experts,
I am having a issue bex query is not refreshing in the bex analyzer.
Actually my requirement to create a workbook on bex query. I have made once workbook but that also not refreshing .
I already check the tick mark for refresh workbook on open,
Please help.

Hi,
Refer below screenshot and check it, since I don't have enough screenshots/steps to reproduce. It is just a guess, so check on below points and respond.
1. Is workbook is connected to system? check the connected/connection by clicking on icon (marked in purple). If it is connected, then proceed to next step.
2. Are you clicking on 'Refresh' button (marked in red)? and saying variable screen is not appearing OR report is not refreshed? If yes, then proceed to next step.
3. If you want to refresh and input value again, then click on 'Change Variable Values' Icon (marked in green).
Hope it gives you steps to identify root cause.

Error while trying to Open and Delete a BEx Query in Query Designer.

Hi Experts,
I have been facing this issue with BEx Query in Designer mode for a couple of days now in Development Environment in BI 7.0.
I would like to Delete an unwanted BEx Query because I need to give it's name to another BEx Query.
Whenever I try to Open this Query in BEx Query Designer to Delete, it gives out an error saying:
"An error occurred while communicating with the BI server.
As a result of this error, the system has been
disconnected from the BI server.
Detailed Description:
STOP: Program error is class SAPMSSY1 method : UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
STOP: System eror in program CL_RSR and form GET_CHANMID-01 - (see long text)"
Details text is as below:
Diagnosis
This internal error is an intended termination resulting from a program state that is not permitted.
Procedure
Analyze the situation and inform SAP.
If the termination occurred when you executed a query or Web template, or during interaction in the planning modeler, and if you can reproduce this termination, record a trace (transaction RSTT).
For more information about recording a trace, see the documentation for the trace tool environment as well as SAP Note 899572.
I have tried with SAP Note 899572, but still it's the same.
Has anyone faced similar issue? Could you please let me know if you have better ideas or solution?
Your time is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chandu

Arun - Thanks a million. You saved me Nine. It worked.
Could you also please tell me how to rename (Technical) a Query or is it still "Save the Query As" the only way...?
Points already assigned.

Status of data in Bex query shows wrong date

Dear Experts,
The Bex qurey after sucessful execution, show the Status of data as old date i.e. feb 2012. but we observed that the data uplaod happens regularly and sucessful.
we tried executing the same query using RSRT/Bex Analyzer/Portal. the results are same i.e. showing incorrect status of data.
Note: The Bex query is built on BI Infoset which sources from DSOs and Master Data infoobjects, and BI version is 7.0.
Kindly please help for resolving the issue.
Best Regards,
Mannu.

Hi Vijay,
The data upload has happend today also and it is sucessful, the reporing status is available for requests from respective infoproviders.
'Status of data' is not a filed. if it an information to tell the status of data in query result.
Please find the following steps to find the 'status of data'
go to RSRT->give the query name and execute-> now after query results-> go to last page-> you can find the 'status of data'.
Best Regards,
Mannu

Results based on From and To value in Bex query designer.

Dear all,
We are using BI7.00. In one of our report which pertains to PM user wants to get the details of number of breakdowns which falls in the value range 0 to 1 hours.
I created a condition which has 2 variables, one is From value and the other is for the To value (since user wants to enter both the limits). I have written a condition that if the breakdown hour is greater than or equal to variable1 and less than or equal to variable2.
Using the above condition if the query is run, i am not getting the desired output. The values avaialble in the report are 0.65,0.78,1.30,7.38,0 etc., when i give 0 to 1 i should get the values 0.65,0.78 and 0 but instead report displays "No valid results".
I changed the condition and selected "Between" variable 1 and variable 2 - yet no change in the query.
To my knowledge i foresee that system is not able to recognize the decimal and hence provides details only based on the whole numbers.
How to get my requirement achieved in the Bex query designer.
Experts suggestion with steps will be very useful to solve my problem.
Regards,
M.M
Edited by: Magesh Magesh on Dec 26, 2008 11:28 AM

Hi Magesh,
I think you could try one more way.
Create a formula inserting your two formula variables for limits .(FV - are ready for input ) .
The formula would return the result as 1 or 0 because it would have boolean condition in it.
You could then place a condition in the query designer to only show all records where the value of the formula key fig is 1.
You formula A would look like
( KF > FV1) AND (KF < FV2) * 1.
And in the condition put A EQ 1.
You could scale the key figures as well and multiply the limits mentioned by the users in FV1 and FV2 if decimals are still not recognized by SAP.(scaling)

Hello,
I have the same problem with Flat mode is not supported! at ... Characteristic.setHierarchy(Characteristic.java:335):
Open, close, reload of the query does not help.
Other SDN-thread "500 Internal Sever - Flat Mode is not Supported!" related to transaction RSRT.
Execution of query via RSRT works, but the problem still persists in the BEx Web Analyzer.
Could be related to a BEx Web Analyzer "bookmark" ("Personalize Web Application").
I have not deleted any item. We use SAP BW 7.0 with a patch level approx. 09.2009.
The "flat-mode" seems to be the "BEx table mode".
SAP hints do not seem to fit here:
- 715820 BW 3.x Front-End Patch 14 (we use BW 7.0)
- 874825 SAPBWNews for BW 3.x Front-End Support Package 19
- 874827 SAPBWNews for BW 3.5 Front-End Patch 08 (we use BW 7.0)
- 905229 update to SAPTableTree
- 909824 Termination in flat mode when an object is deleted (old?)
- 909827 Incorrect InfoProvider-dependent characteristic values
- 910602 Condition includes too many characteristics (usage of deleted elements)
- 915215 Termination when a query definition is changed (old? visibility of elements?)
- 968273 Cache with flat files: Exception is not caught (does not apply to given error)
Any new solutions?
