BEx Reference field problem

Hi BW Experts,
I have created a calculated key field (Z_TOTCNTFLG_1) in a Query using Bex Analyser. The calculated key field simply does a count of a flag field I am extracting into a BW field called 'Z_COUNTFLAG'- this field has a value of 1 in each entry into BW. Hence Z_TOTCNTFLG_1 in BEx does a total count of this field.
The problem is when I go to run the query I get the following error message:
Diagnosis
The reference field for Z_TOTCNTFLG_1 is not maintained, and the two aggregations do not agree.
System response
The default value 0CALDAY is set for the reference field.
Procedure
Check reference field 0CALDAY. If this message appears when you are checking or executing a query, check calculated key figure Z_TOTCNTFLG_1.
Does anyone know how to resolve this. I have already created a query which successfully works for a seperate cube using the same info Object?
Many Thanks
Depesh

Hi AHP,
The documents helped. Many Thanks! However, Let me explain a bit more about what I have built in BW from R/3. AN ABAP developer has written a custom extract from R/3 tables and created a custom datasource. In this extract he has given every custom table a ZCOUNT field with an assigned value of 1. This is then extracted into a Key Fig in BW called Z_COUNT set as a Maximum aggregation, when creating it.
This is then used to calculate total number of records etc. So when I go to enhance the ckf properties I set the exception aggregation as 'summation' but dont find the ref char drop down menu of use as it holds only chars?
FYI I am only extracting the time char as Fiscal Year/Period.
Any ideas?
Many Thanks
Depesh

Kodo problem and reference field

Hi,
Could you help me in finding a solution ?
I'll give you example - we have two objects - A and B. B object has
reference attribute that points to A. That requires two tables, where in
table B there will be foreign key to table A index.
But why I'm gettin such error when I'm trying to make persistent object A
(it is written to database). After that I'm creating object B, setting a
reference field (using created earlier A). When I try to make persistent
object B it sets a foreign key field to next value in sequence for table A.
This field should point to created earlier A row. Any ideas ?
Thanks for reply,
Krzysztof Adamski

Is the object A created under the same persistence manager? That can give
problems.
Make sure you use the extension metadata tag:
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="inverse"
value="otherobjectsattributehere"/>
inside of object B's collection element definition of the metadata

Reference field of invoice not filled in PO history

The reference field of the invoice (INFVO-XBLNR) is not copied into the EKBE-XBLNR. I couldn't find an OSS note to solve the problem. Please advise.
Kind regards,
Annerie Deckers

Hello,
Table EKBE is only updated if "GR-Based IV" indicator is active at Purchase order item level.
Only then field EKBE-XBLNR is updated with the value of the corresponding GR doc. reference field (MKPF-XBLNR) and not with the value of the RBKP-XBLNR (logistics invoice).
There is also a note explaining the case link:[Note 383828 - ME23N: Reference in the purchase order history]

KR Reference Field coming from Earmarked Fund

Hi Experts,
We have distributed our data entry of non PO related invoices out to end users. They data enter and park the invoice. Then Central AP uses their workflow inbox (SBWP) to view and "approve" the document to post it.
This works great EXCEPT when the invoice is charged to an Earmarked Fund (specifially a funds commitment), AP gets an error that "For document type KR, an entry is required on field Reference number" XBLNR is filled in with the Vendor's invoice number on the parked document, but we are told by SAP, that it is our config that is causing the issue.
On the funds commitment (fmz3), we can view that on the Header of the commitment that we have always left the field REFERENCE blank. We did configure under Earmarked Funds and Funds Transfers\Define Rules for account assignment, that the Reference Document Number is Active, but this allows us to fill in field REFBN in other areas for reporting.
When we just post an invoice FB60, we've never had a problem with the funds commitment's REFERENCE field conflicting with the Invoice's Reference field. When I do enter something on the REFERENCE field of the funds commitment, it OVERWRITES what the invoice had in the reference field when we do the Park then POST using workflow (uses FBV0 funcitonality). It does not overwrite it though when I just post using FB60 or FV60.
SAP has stated that they intentially designed their programs differently which is why they behave differently.
So does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the parked document to post BUT to keep the Vendor's Invoice number in the Reference field? Instead of it being overwritten from the Funds Commitment?
Would appreciate your guidance,
Cindy

Hi,
I think your FM analyst got the direction wrong. System will always populate REFBN field in table FMIOI with PO# or other source document number. The configuration you mentioned controls whether you want the system to transfer the value of REFBN to a follow-on document with reference to an earmarked fund - the direction is from FM to FI. For example, when you create an earmarked fund 1234, you will see an entry in table FMIOI with field REFBN populated with 1234; this has nothing to do with the configuration in defining rules for account assignment transfer in earmarked fund. Then, you create an invoice with reference to earmarked fund 1234; this time, system will transfer the values of the fields in document 1234 to the invoice according to the said configuration.

Reference Field for Document Type AB has made Mandatory

Dear Experts,
    In OBA7, for Document Type AB (Accounting Document) I had clicked the Reference Number Field Check Box (Made it mandatory)
    So it became mandatory every time to enter the Reference Number when using the Document Type AB
    Now I am facing the problem, when using the T Code F-44 (Clear Vendor - Header Data) the system is popping an Error Msg, " For Document Type AB, an entry is required in field Reference "
     Since their is no Reference Field available on the screen, where should I enter the data for the same
    I am unable to understand How this issue can be resolved, I tried a lot but failed to get a solution
     Their is Reference radio button available on Additional Selections tab, but not field
So please help ..!!
Regards, Nimish

      When I enter the vendor no. and click on Goto-Document Overview, the system pops the error message and doesnt allow me to enter anything on that screen
     Please try at your end and revert boss
    I think I may require to raise an OSS note for this

Trying to reference field name of my record Type in my procedure!

Hello,
I am stuck. I am trying to reference field names in my record type declared in my Package declaration.
Here is an example. Don't be scared, it's a very simple package. I just need some directions what to use to accomplish this.
--look into this part of the package body
FOR cur_rate IN c_rate
LOOP
rate_data(1).field_name := cur_rate.rate_pct;
--field name = AK_PCT, AL_PCT and so on ...
END LOOP;
END rate_tab_qry;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE rate_pkg IS
TYPE rate_rec IS RECORD (
id cycle_rates.id%TYPE
,cycle cycle_rates.cycle%TYPE
,scac cycle_rates.scac%TYPE
,gbloc cycle_rates.gbloc%TYPE
,code cycle_rates.code%TYPE
,AK_PCT cycle_rates.rate_pct%TYPE
,AL_PCT cycle_rates.rate_pct%TYPE
,AR_PCT cycle_rates.rate_pct%TYPE
,so on...
TYPE cycle_rate_tab IS TABLE OF rate_rec INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
PROCEDURE rate_tab_qry(rate_data IN OUT cycle_rate_tab,
p_id cycle_rates.id%TYPE,
p_cycle cycle_rates.cycle%TYPE,
p_scac cycle_rates.scac%TYPE,
p_gbloc cycle_rates.gbloc%TYPE,
p_code cycle_rates.code%TYPE);
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY rate_pkg IS
PROCEDURE rate_tab_qry(rate_data IN OUT cycle_rate_tab,
p_id cycle_rates.id%TYPE,
p_cycle cycle_rates.cycle%TYPE,
p_scac cycle_rates.scac%TYPE,
p_gbloc cycle_rates.gbloc%TYPE,
p_code cycle_rates.code%TYPE)
IS
CURSOR c_rate IS
SELECT state, rate_pct
FROM cycle_rates
WHERE cycle = p_cycle
AND scac = p_scac
AND gbloc = p_gbloc
AND code = p_code;
BEGIN
rate_data(1).id := p_id;
rate_data(1).cycle := p_cycle;
rate_data(1).scac := p_scac;
rate_data(1).gbloc := p_gbloc;
rate_data(1).code := p_code;
FOR cur_rate IN c_rate
LOOP
rate_data(1).field_name := cur_rate.rate_pct;
--field name = AK_PCT, AL_PCT and so on ...
END LOOP;
END rate_tab_qry;
I need to know, how to reference my field name for each state in my procedure that are in my record type. The problem is it won't allow me to use something like this.
select state || '_PCT
from cycle_rates;
which would eventually show me each state concatenated with '_PCT, e.g. AK_PCT and that's my field names.
For example,
FOR cur_rate IN c_rate
LOOP
rate_data(1).field_name := cur_rate.rate_pct;
--field_name = AK_PCT, AL_PCT and so on...
END LOOP;
I would appreciate it if somene can direct me. Thanks.

How does Reference Field work?

Hi All,
I have short of problem knowing how reference field works. I have one field in ABAP query: MBEW-STPRS. The field type is CURR and it have reference field T001-WAERS.
In query I made, the currency isn't occurs although I have set it to be display. I try to look how this reference field works in any source but can't find any answer. May be some of you can give me a little explanation.
Thank you so much
Regards
Hadi

Hi,
Reference fields work in the following way,
When you say quantity is 100, what it refers to - 100 pc, 100 bundles or 100 kg or 100 metres??? The unit of qty defines whether it is PC, KG, M etc...
In the database, SAP stores all amount values with 2 decimal places. But when SAP reads it, it interprets it based on the currency associated with the amount field.
We require reference fields to Currency/Quantity fields as they are meaningless with out having the units.
Ex: If we say, i paid 100. How can we figure out if he had paid 100 paise or 100 rupees.
So, units are must.
In case of quantity field QUAN, reference field will be always of type UNIT,
currency field CURR, reference field will be always of type CUKY.
It is mandatory to specify reference fields when we create fields of quantity/currency type in data base tables.
Hope this will clear you.
Thanks & Regards,
Pavan.

Kwert reference field in datasource

Hi...
i created a structure from konv,ekko tables and its ok.i used komk-waerk field for kwert reference field.no problem in ecc side.i can run function module correctly.
so i just try to create datasource for bw in rso2.but when i try to save it,gives me error below.
so what can i use working correctly to waerk refereance filed ?

Hi Erdem,
The error screenshot shows that WAERK field is missing from the extract structure of the data source, so just add the field to the data source.
As Sriram mentioned both Units & Currencies needs to be available in data source extract structure.

Smartform , Reference field unknown

Hi guys,
I'm trying to sole a reference filed unknowm in smartform.
I'm using a user defined structure like below:
structure s1
   t1 type s2
   t2 type s2
structure s2
   a type yy
   b type yy
This structure is defined in dictionary. I passed this structure to smartform and try to output structure s1 variable like s1-t1-a but it says reference field unknown. Anybody know how to solve this problem ??
Thank you for your help

This structure is defined in dictionary.
Which one? Please provide more details.
I think the crucial is how you are passing the structure to smartform. If parameter is of generic type (i.e. ANY) you won't see its (structure) components. Create some dummy program and make sure the same definition allows you to address the components in the way you want. If syntax checker pass you, then the problem lies in how you pass the structure to smartform (as described above).

Marcin
