BEx Query Designer Functionality - Please assist

Hi Bi Guru's,
I've got a doubt and I hope you can assist me with it. Well, I'm in the midst of fixing a report on currency conversion. My questions are:
1) I managed to convert the currency for all the Key Figures in my report. But, I've got another column (Which is a characteristic) and the conversion option is greyed out. I'm not sure how I can convert the currency of a characteristic into £. Please enlighten...
2) Are there other ways to convert a currency to £?
Your advices are much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Vasan

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.....

Condition (Defintion) in BEX Query Designer

Hi Experts,
I am trying to define a condition in BEX Query Designer.
I defined my condition and bit confused with Characterstic Assignment
What Happens if is select 9What is the difference)
1) All Characterstic in the Drilldown Independtly
2)Most Detailed Characterstic Along the Rows
3)Most Detailed Characterstic Along Columns and
4)Individual Chars and Chars.Combinations
Thanks

Hi,
● All Characteristics in the Drilldown Independently
This setting allows you to apply a condition in a general way. Depending on which characteristics you use in the drilldown, you obtain different results.
Note that the characteristics that are already used in an active condition for characteristic combinations are not included.
This option is optimized for ranked list conditions, but can also be used for threshold value conditions with relative values.
●Most Detailed Characteristic Along the Rows or Columns
This option is optimized for threshold value conditions. The condition is applied to the most detailed characteristic of the rows or columns.
Note that this function is not supported when executing the query in the BEx Analyzer. For more information, see Restrictions in the BEx Analyzer.
● Single Characteristics and Characteristic Combinations
This setting allows you to evaluate the condition for characteristics or characteristic combinations defined for specific drilldowns only. You can select any characteristic (of the characteristics used in the query in rows, columns, or in the free characteristics) or a characteristic combination.
○ If you only want to evaluate the condition when a certain characteristic is present in the drilldown, select this characteristic.
○ If you want to evaluate the condition for characteristic combinations, select multiple characteristics.

BEx Query Designer - Execute pops up blank Internet Explorer session

Hi gurus,
From BEx Query Designer, I choose Execute, and it pops up a blank Internet Explorer window rather than the query. It says about:blank in the URL and the page is white.
I read some posts that say to run RSPOR_SETUP, but I don't have a Java system or Portal system so does that still apply to me? I want the URL that pops up to point to the BW system which is an ABAP system.
E_URL_PREFIX                    http://BWSAPF00.mydomain.com:8100
E_URL_PATH                      /sap/bw/BEx
E_URL_PROTOCOL                  http

Hi,
Please note that Java stack is mandatory for running Queries in web side
or for executing the Queries using Transaction RSRT -> Java Web or
for executing the Queries using Query Designer in Release 7.x .
So, please install Java stack and use BI Java components for running
Queries in web side here.
Also, please refer the following note for details:
917950 - SAP NetWeaver 2004s: Setting Up BEx Web
Also keep a note of the following:

The interface is a little bit different now, but the installation

You can use manual steps to set up integration as per note 917950.
Also, please don´t use report RSPOR_SETUP for configuration check

Drilldown in BeX Query Designer

Hello,
I am new in SAP. I am having problem creating Drill down. I have this report where all the data is Transactional data. So I haven't created any Master Data. So I won't be able to use Navigational Attribute for Drill down purpose and I don't want to use Hierarchy. Is there any possibility of getting the Drill down in BeX Query Designer? Any help will be appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Debayan

Hi Debayan,
first of all, what is your requirement to create a drill down?
A drill down in BEx query means showing additional information from report output. There are 3 ways to drill down a query in BEx
1. Master data-Navigational Attributes
2. Master data- Hierarchies
3. Free characteristics
As you dont have any master data in the report (which is very strange) you can use the additional characteristics provided in the 'Free characteristics' to see how the drill down works in BEx.
Please share your exact requirement.
Hope this helps.

                                                               ( 4/5 * 100= 80%)
Percentage RFQ without response= 100 - Percentage of Quotation response
                                                              = 100-80 = 20%

thank you

Hope you have done some groundwork you have done on this requirement. Have you tried to create New Formula and put the required formula in it to calculate Percentage of Quotation response ?
Your formulas seems to be straight forward.
Keep in Filter: item Not = L category =A status =RFQ
You may start working on it and get back with if you are struck.

Usage of formulas in conditions in BEx Query Designer

Hi guys,
does anybody of you guys know, if it's possible to use the results of formulas in conditions? I tried it, but the result of the query was "No applicable data found", but there are data for the selection.
When I'm defining the condition with the key figure (no restricted or calculated key figure), then the query can be executed.
In my case, I like to define a condition based on a formula result. The value should only be displayed, when the result is greater than 30.
Any ideas or are there any bugy in the BEx Query Designer?
Thanks a lot + best regards,
Clemens

Hi Clemens,
I have created a condition in my own system based on formula and it works perfectly fine. Please check following points in your condition change mode,
1) Condition is marked as Active.
2) In the block "Evaluate condition below for" you will have to select "All characteristics in drilldown Independently". If you have selected combination of characteristics then you will have to maintain proper sequence otherwise your condition will not work.
3) In the next block when you set the condition, click on new, in the first block select your Formula from dropdown and set the proper operator in your case you will have to select "Greater than" in the next column set the value of key figure and just trasnfer it.
Now you are ready to use the condition.

Durgesh.

IF...ELSE.. STATEMENT in BEx Query Designer

Hi,
Why there is no IF, ELSE function in BEx Query Designer?
Assuming I need to write the following logic, how can it be accomplished?
IF (A=0 OR B=0)
 THEN 0
ELSE IF ( B/A <0)
 THEN ' *'
ELSE
 B/A * 100
i.e.
if A or B is equal to 0, then display the value of 0
else if B is negative (as A is either 0 or positive), then display the following text: ' *'
otherwise, display the value of B/A * 100
Thanks!

Hi,
You can achieve this by creating a new formula.
You have to use the boolean operations and mathematical functions. But we cannot display *. u have to display some value for that.

Char restriction in Bex Query Designer

Hi Gurus,
Can anyone explain what is the use of the Characteristic Restriction Area in in the BEx Query designer
If i set 0CALYEAR =2008 in the Char Restriction and in the column definition i set the one of the column to display data from year 2009. Will it work ?
Please advice
Thank you
BR

There are two type of characterstic restrcitions in the query. Global and local.
If you are createing a restrcited key figure or selection and restricting calday then it will be restricted to that particular key figure (and show 2008 data) and in the columns it will show you other years data (i.e. 2009 data).
But if you are using a global fiter in the filter tab of query designer, then it will be applicable to the whole query.

Creating Restrictions in BEx query designer for (1-a), where a is variable.

Dear All,
>> Suppose for the variable in the BEx query designer, I've created restriction for 0FISCPER to the variable 0P_PER (as 0P_PER-1) by right clicking 0P_PER3, from that a dialog box appears. In that I've selected 0P_PER3 and then clicked on offset variable and when I set the offset variable, it works for (0P_PER-1.etc, 0P_PER+1,etc..)
But if I want to have (1-0P_PER), then plz tell me how to define this restriction?
Plz explain me the steps to perform (1-0P_PER) restriction in BEx query designer in BW1.
I'm using SAP BI 7.2 gui.
Expecting your reply soon,
with Regards,
Jerald

My requirement is that I want to have " 1-fiscal year"., But this I could not define using offset variables, since using offset we can define "fiscal year +1" or "fiscal year -1".
So there would be some other way to define "1-fiscalyear". So Please help me to define "1-fiscalyear" by giving me the steps.
Thank you,
with Regards,
Jerald

Drill down ( Collapsible Row ) Report in BEx query designer ?

Dear Friends!
I am supoosed to create a report drill down report for Purchasing History to be precise, I know that we can have drill down feature using heirarchy but is it possible for Us to have PO & PO item heirarachy ? or any other way to do drill down reporting in SAP BEx Query designer ?
like my current report is : -
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
Now I am supposed to create a report in which
normal view
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | |> PO Number| .... ( keyfigures) | Payment |
drill down or collapsible view ( please consider the heading as data I am not talking about dynamically change of headings ).
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | V PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
is there anyway to design the report in above mention manner ? you any input will be appreciated greatly.
Thank you so much!
Regards
Naim

Hi Naim,
usually we don't do the transactional data as hierarchy. not sure the reason behind your requirement.
we can do one of the below :-
1. To have the default view as
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
and then user can drill down on rest of the characteristics for detailed view later on.
2. or if they don't want to drill down on characteristics;-
we can build 2 reports , one for header level information and then jump to second query for detailed information(item level) using RRI.
first query:
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
second query:
| Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
Let us know if this works out?
Regards,
Sakthi.

Giving Error while opening BEx Query Designer.

Hi all,
               A user is trying to open BEx Query Designer 7.0 and she is getting this error
" SAP BEx Query Designer standalone has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
If you were middle of something, the information you are working on might be lost. "
She is not having issues while opening BEx Analyzer. She is having Office 2010. This doesn't seem to be compatibility issue with the Office. This BEx was not installed on her machine 2 weeks back and it was working fine until now.
As a first re-solution i told her to get it re-installed but still she is getting the same issue.
Thanx.

Hello,
There is no relation between Office VS Query Designer. Only with BEx Analyzer and MS Excel.
My suggestion is.
If you don't have version 7.20 of SAPGUI and Business Explorer, please download the installer.
After that, download the latest patch available and install:
