BEx Query Designer and Exceptions

I have a simple enough task.  I was tasked, with marking items on a query with an exception, however the value is not static.  I have a column marked hours, and five columns for each day of the week.  The current day with data should yield an exception if the current day has less hours the the calculated hours column.  So my first approach was to create a formula where I evaluate both the hours calculated from the query and the current day. I called this field fday1.  I created an exception stating that if fday1 = 1 then to mark the field Bad3.  but I want the affected structure to be the Actual Day such my column days are: Day 1 (current date), Day 2 (current date + 1) etc... but when I visit the query (ie, adhoc query) only the formula field fday1 has the exception day triggered.  In the exceptions list  I define the keyfigure fDay1 (time of evaluation [before list calculation]) Under the display tab I have exception affects data cells for the following structure elements: Day 1 (current date).
like If I execute this query through the portal the exception shows up correctly on the proper field.  if I execute the query through the adhoc (BEx Ad Hoc Analysis) view, then the wrong field has the exception.
any thoughts on a better way to approach this query?

Nobody has a solution in order to highlight the whole row (characteristic and key figures) for a value of a key figure ?
With WAD or Query Designer, I'm trying to highlight a line with an exception on a key figure but it apparently colors only key figures.
For example i would have entire colored rows for negative key figure :
field1:a field2:x field3:e key_figure:1
field1:b field2:x field3:e key_figure:7
field1:b field2:y field3:e key_figure:-5
field1:d field2:z field3:j key_figure:1
I can use WAD or Query Designer but not Visual Composer or Report Designer...
Thanks for help.

  • Problem with Queries Structures in Bex Query Designer and Universe Designer

    Hi everyone,
    I have a problem when i try to do a Universe from a Bex Query Designer.
    When I use a Characteristic Restrictions in a Structure, the universe only show me the structure without the objects inside it.
    EJ:
    1) Bex Query Designer
    Colunms
    (Structure) ZSRT_123
                          - (Characteristic Restrictions) Reg Guayana
    >          (InfoObject)     0Product = 'XXX'
    >          (InfoObject)     0Country = 'YYY'
         - (Characteristic Restrictions) Reg Caracas
    >          (InfoObject)     0Product = 'AAA'
    >          (InfoObject)     0Country = 'BBB'
    Rows
    (Structure) ZSRT_456
                   (Key Figure)     Net Sales
    2) Universe designer
    (Class) ZSRT_456
    >(Measure)      Net Sale
    (Class)     ZSRT_123
    >(Dimension)      ZSRT_123
    The universe dont translate the two Characteristic Restrictions in the structure ZSRT_123.
    Any information would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi,
    I assume that you are using BOE XI 3.1 SP2.
    We have added an option in SP2 to generate or not the L00 level.
    Unfortunately this option applies not only on characteristics but also on hierarchies, hierarchies variables and structures: that's the reason why you have no elements belonging to the structure generated.
    I recommend to always generate L00 in order to have your structure generated correctly.
    This issue will be fixed in SP3.

  • BEx query : results and exceptions

    Hi people,
    I'm using BI 7.
    I've two questions.
    In a first part i want to know if i can use an exception in order to color all the line (characteristics + key figures) ?
    Because just the key figures are colored with many options I tried.
    In a second part, in the same query, i'm using a hierarchy, some characteristics and a key figure.
    I want to have a line of results for each hierarchy node (node at the top), and too a line of results for a following field.
    Like the following example :
    Hierarchy node level 1:A  field1:2 field2:x k_fig:17
    global result for field1----k_fig:17
    Hierarchy node level 1:A  field1:1 field2:y k_fig:12
    Hierarchy node level 1:A  field1:1 field2:x k_fig:3
    global result for field1----k_fig:15
    global result for hierarchy node level 1-----k_fig:32
    Hierarchy node level 1:B  field1:1 field2:z k_fig:4
    global result for field1----k_fig:4
    global result for hierarchy node level 1-----k_fig:4
    I hope you could help me for the two problems.
    Points will be assigned,
    Cheers,

  • Future of BEx Query and BEx Query Designer

    Folks, I understand SAP's future reporting tools is BO suite. All of us need to move to the new tools which are better or more reliable in 2010. Meanwhile our customers are reluctant to use BEx tools for any new development. Being on the techi side I dont see how BEx Query will be replaced by Voyager or Polestar or WebI or Crystal. I just need to report on my multiprovider without a universe layer. Have any of you experts come across documentation that layed out future of BEx tools explaining the end of support period? I have see roadmaps for tool availability but no dates for end of support.
    Thanks in advance.

    AFAIK,
    Bex Query designer and BEx query will continue... Polestar might be proposed as an alternative for BEx but then it is meant for ad-hoc analysis ... but BEx query and Query designer have specific query requirements also...
    Voyager etc will start coming in...

  • Group by in BEx query designer

    Hello experts,
    I'm new in BEx query designer and I'm currently working on displaying the maximum of a list of values and group them by calendar day like the exemple below:

    What's the best solution for this ?! is it to work with calculated Key Figure or Exceptions ?! Would any one help me to get such result.
    Thanks a lot

    If you need to show the data as you mentioned then i think you are suppose to keep client in rows and also you have to switch on the result row display for that characteristic.
    Because if you remove it then data will get aggregated based on calday and it will become 2 records only.
    To get the maximum value you have to use Exception aggregation.Create a new formula and put the amount kf inside it.Hit the aggregation tab--Exception aggregation as maximum--Reference characteristic as client.
    If this does not work then we can also apply nested aggregation based on calday.

  • New ratio doesn't appear in Bex Query designer

    Hello Experts,
    I added 2 ratios to my infocube. It activated without any problem. I then added these 2 ratios to my multiprovider and activated it after affecting them to the previous infocube.
    Then I connected to the Bex query designer and loaded a report in order to add these ratios, but there are not available for selection in the Ratio menu of the multiprovider.
    Has anyone faced this problem?
    Thanks

    Try reactivating the Multiprovider again and see if that works !
    I had this issue earlier, where I couldn't see two of the newly added characteristics in the multiprovider. But simply reactivating the multiprovider solved my issue.

  • Bex Query Designer not using default browser

  • IF and ABS condition statement in BEX query designer

  • 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.

    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)

  • Difference between  aggregation and calculation tab in BEx Query Designer

    HI,
    I am using BEx Query Designer for my report, for the key figures in the coloumn area i slected one numeric key figures, in  the properties tab i found aggregation tab and calculation tab.
    I need to sum up the total values for that particualar coloumn, when i used calculation tab i found to sum all the values for a particular coloumn, then what is the use the aggreagation tab?
    I not able to used that Aggregation tab it is showing as a hidden fields...
    can any one tell me whats the exact difference between these tabs and when we need to use which tab?
    With Regards,
    Thanesh Kumar.

    Hi Thanesh Kumar,
    I moved this thread from forum Data Warehousing to Business Explorer since it is a query related question (as SDN moderator).
    I could explain to you the difference between these two tabs.
    For "calculation" tab, it changes the display of result and does not change the calculation logic.
    It means that, if this key figure is used further in formula, still the original number (without "calculation" tab setting)  is used for further formula calculation.
    For "aggregation" tab, it changes the real calculation logic.
    The system takes the setting as the aggregation rule for records.
    The most common aggregation rule is of course summation. If you set to e.g. Average here, the system does the
    Average instead of summation when aggregating records. And the Average value will be taken for calculation
    in further formulas or other calculations.
    For "aggregation" tab, you could only use it for CKF (calculated key figure) or formula and you could not use it for
    a basic key figure. That should be the reason why you see it greyed-out.
    Regards,
    Patricia

  • Doubt on Rows and Coloums in BEx Query Designer.

    Hello, Experts.
    I have a Doubt in BEx Query Designer.
    In the Rows I have a Fiscal year Period,  if the user enters the Fiscal year period for e.g. : 001/2006  .  
    in the columns i have  forecast for the Fiscal year period which user entered ( 001/2006 ),   and we have another column pervious ( Prior )fiscal year period ( 001/2005 ). 
    My Questions is ,  as we are Restricting with 001/2006 will the query retrieve the values of 2005 or not?
    Thanks in Advance .
    Sharp

    yes i am  Doing Offest.
    I moved this Fiscal year Period to Free char,   and i Restricted with Pervious Fical Year period and Fical year period .  it worked.  but
    when i kept this in Rows and deleted Previous Fiscal Year period .  it is displaying blanks.   in prior years forecast.
    is it because i am Ristricting it to only fical year period  which user entered
             Colums-->  Forcast ( User Entered year )          Prior year

  • Values Bifurcation in BEx Query Designer

    Dear BI Gurus,
    In a column we are getting both positive value and -ve value. We want to bifurcate the values and show only +ve value in one column and show -ve value in another column. Is it possible through Bex query designer?
    Please through some light on this issue.
    With Regards,
    Balachander.S

    Hi bala,
    This can be achieved by creating two calculated Key figures, Just use else if condition in the formula and use if KF1=KF>0 then KF else 0, here all the positive values will be displayed similarly use if KF2=KF<0 then KF Else 0 it will display all the negative values. But here all the values will be displayed. Just hide the Key figure and display only calculated keyfigures. Else you can use exceptions to differentiate the positive and negative values.
    Hope this helps.....
