Header and Footer in a BEx report

Hi Everyone,
I have a requirement where I need to provide a space for the user to sign-off with their name and signature at the bottom of the print-out of a BEx report. For this purpose I need to provide a space at the bottom of the report where the user can write their names and sign-off. It should be something like:
Name: _________________________________-
Signature: _______________________________
Date: ___________________________________
Is there some way I can add all this as the footer text in the BEx query?
Thanks,
Ram

If the BEx query can use a "structure" in the rows section....
Under last row, add a selection = company code, set it not equal to the company code, & change the description =
NAME: ____________________________________________
Then, copy the above row, but change description to =
SIGNATURE: _____________________________________
Repeat, copy the above row, change description =
DATE: ____________________________________
If you want to add blank lines, copy one of these rows, but change description = a period = .
By setting the restriction <> to the real company code, then that row should be blank straight across, except for the description.
A better/more professional looking option is to put the BEx query into a web template, add 3 HTML rows under the query result table, add text per your specs. Then save web template to the appropriate role/folder to publish it on the portal.

How to remove the '#'symbols for infoobject movement types in bex reporting

Hi All,
I have a problem in Bex reporting. The problem is when ever executing the report that time some of the characteristic values is shown in layout '#' Symbols. i want to remove the '#' valuse in report.
is it possible please give me step by step procedure for how to remove the '#' Symbols in reporing layout.
this is very urgent please help to me on this issue.
Thanks & Regards,
Guna.

Hi Guna,
To achieve this issue, we need to replace the value of #, we need to change the description while retrieving the data from tables. So we need to write some ABAP code in SE38. Go to RSA1 transaction and go to Info objects tab. Then go to context menu for cProject Key Figures as shown below. Click on the Object Overview to get the overview of all the info objects. Here you can see the field names which are used to know the table names.
In SE11, type the table name in Database Table field. Now press F4, then you will get the next screen to select one of the P/Q/S/T tables.
Now click on the button rounded in the below screen to view the data in the table.
Now click the execute button or press F8 to view the records.
Now go to Tcode: SE38. Create a source code and give some program name for that source code. To write code, you need access key. Contact your BASIS for this.
Now write the below code for that particular table in which you want to change the value # to description Blank. In the below source code, we are updating particular table, setting the field as Blank where it is null or no value. Here the field will automatically get updated to # if there is no value or null.
update /BIC/PXXXXX set /BIC/ZXXXX = 'Blank' where /BIC/ZXXXXX is null or /BIC/ZXXXX = ''.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
write 'successful'.
commit work.
else.
write 'unsuccessful'.
endif.
OR
If this # is because of the missing master data than,
right click that IO -> maintain master
you will see first row as a blank.
whatever value you maintain in this row that will come in the report for all Not assigned # values of the master data in the report.
maintain it according to your requirement, save and activate the master data
Hope this helps u...

Capture the exceptions from BW Bex Report in a class/interface

Hi....
I am trying to capture the exceptions defined in the BW BEx Reports in a class (superclass - CL_RSR_WWW_MODIFY_TABLE) in a variable or something.
This is actually to change the properties of a table in Web Applcn. acc to the exceptions by altering the cell content in the class(Transaction - SE80).
Is it possible to store the exceptions in a variable in the class???

Hi Smriti,
Exception and Exception Handling can be based on classes in ABAP Objects. In an exception situation, an exception is represented by an exception object
i.e. an instance of an exception class. Its attributes contain information about the
error situation. Exception classes can be defined both locally and globally. When a class based exception is raised, the system interrupts normal   program flow and tries to navigate to the suitable handler.
An exception can only be handled if the causing statement(s) is enclosed in a TRY-ENDTRY block. If a exception occurs in a TRY block, the system first searches for a CATCH statement (which will handle the exception) in the same block and then step by step upwards in all enclosing TRY-ENDTRY blocks. If it finds one, it navigates to this handler, else if TRY-ENDTRY block is in a procedure, it then tries to propagate the exception to the calling program. After exception occurs, system searches through the listed exception handlers in specified order and executes first handler whose CATCH statement contains the relevant exception class or one of its superclasses.
PARAMETERS: p_num1 TYPE i,
            p_num2 TYPE i.
DATA: gv_result TYPE i,
      gv_text   TYPE string,
Defining reference variables with reference to the common superclass *
CX_ROOT of all exception classes.                                     *
      z_ref_exc TYPE REF TO cx_root.
TRY.
    gv_result = p_num1 / p_num2.
    WRITE / gv_result.
For division by zero, the runtime system raises the exception         *
cx_sy_zerodivide. This is handled in the CATCH block. The reference   *
to the appropriate instance is stored in the data object z_ref_exc.   *
CATCH cx_sy_zerodivide INTO z_ref_exc.
Handler can access the instance's exception text using the functional *
method GET_TEXT.                                                      *
    gv_text = z_ref_exc->get_text( ).
    MESSAGE gv_text TYPE 'I'.
ENDTRY.
Award points if found useful.

Change date format in BEx report

There is a date field in report which is character type.
ZCOMDAT - compensation date (CHAR 8)
The output of this file in report is YYYYMMDD (20110422) format which is char
This should be converted to 22-APR-2011 in BEx report.
This object is used in many reports but only in this report it should be converted.
How can this be achieved?

Hi akshara,
Apart from the above mentioned approaches i have one strange solution . You might want to consider this .
You said you have an infoobject ZCOMDAT of type char(8) .
Proceed like this :
1) In the infoobject maintain medium text for this . Insert this characteristic as an infoprovider .
2) Now since this infoobject will have the dates in the master data and hence in /BIC/PZCOMDAT table .
Create a generic datasource on this table : /BIC/PZCOMDAT .
Now create a transformation between this generic datasource & the text master data of ZCOMDAT.
map date and objvers to the text in the transformation .
And write the following routine at the field level :
If SOURCE_FIELDS-OBJVERS = 'A'.
year = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/PZCOMDAT+0(4).
mon = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/PZCOMDAT+4(2).
dd = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/PZCOMDAT+6(2).
if mon = '01'.
mth = 'JAN'.
ELSEIF mon = '02'.
mth = 'FEB'.
ELSEIF mon = '03'.
mth = 'MAR'.
ELSEIF mon = '04'.
mth = 'APR'.
ELSEIF mon = '05'.
mth = 'MAY'.
ELSEIF mon = '06'.
mth = 'JUN'.
ELSEIF mon = '07'.
mth = 'JUL'.
ELSEIF mon = '08'.
mth = 'AUG'.
ELSEIF mon = '09'.
mth = 'SEP'.
ELSEIF mon = '10'.
mth = 'OCT'.
ELSEIF mon = '11'.
mth = 'NOV'.
ELSEIF mon = '12'.
mth = 'DEC'.
ENDIF.
CONCATENATE DD '-' MTH '-' YEAR INTO RESULT.
CLEAR:DD,MTH,YEAR.
endif.
After this load the the data . Now your text of this object will be having the date required in your format.
3) In the query level display text for this infoobject .The date will appear in the format as you desired .
You have to include the above flow in a process chain .
Using the above method will not effect your query performance also as the calculation are happening during loading .
Hope the above reply was helpful.

Need help in migrating SAP Bex Reports to BO

Hi Experts,
We have a requirment where we have to transfer bex reports to BO. Now my question is
whether all the logic performed in Bex Query designer is possible to achive in BO?
Like Customer Exit codes, Filters, Conditions,Exceptions ,Cell Definitions,Hierarchies,
Variables (text,charateritisc etc) .
Please can anyone suggest me on this any sort of document or material is very helpful.
Thanks & Regards
Sameer Khan

Hi,
Customer exit we can't write in BO,it need to be in Bex side only.
Filters-we can define any where.
Variables(char)-we can define any where but i'm not sure about Text variables.
Please have a look at the below links

Bex report for the average calculation

Dear All,
I like to make a Bex report. On that I like to distribute the last 3 months data on daily average basis.
From there what will be the stock out of the particular day ( in no.s and from the average value), it should be shown in one line rather than all value.
Please, guide me how to do.
regards,
Balaram

Hi,
Try the following
Create variable1 against 0calmonth with ready for input ....Manual Input --- Mandatory
Create Variable2 on 0calmonth with out ready for input --- customer exit - interval
go to cmod write customer exit variable to to populate value for variabl2
eg. if variable1 = 03.2011 Then variable2 should be between 01.2011 - 03.2011 (If you need coding please let me know)
Free Char
Row
0calday/ Sales Document Date / Billing Date (choose which one you need and select only out of them )
Column
Sales Qty
--Create New Selection and name as 'Avg Qty 3 Month'
--add sales Qty in to new selection
--Drag and drop 0calday/ Sales Document Date / Billing Date (choose which one you need and select only out of them )
--Right Click on it and restrict with 0calmoth variable2.
--Context menu of 0calday/ Sales Document Date / Billing Date (choose which one you need and select only out of them ) and tick constant .
make it hide in property
Create New formula
Avg Qty 3 Month / 90
Please note there is leap year also ... it better to calculate no of days between rage in formula...
Hope this will help you to sole the issue...
Thanks

Concatenation of Data from 4 infoobjects into a single cell in Bex Report

Hi,
I have loaded ODS with the description data. The source system for loading the ODS is the flat file. The ODS data should be a replica of the flat file.
In the flat file, there is a description field corresponding to a particular ID. This Description is greater than the standard 60 char length. So, I had to split the description while loading the flat file using single line routine in the Transfer Structure.
So, while loading different the data, I split the description field data from the flat file into 4 infoobjects and the flat file data was loaded into the ODS.
Now, from the reporting point of view, I need to display the entire description data from the 4 info-objects into a single cell in the Bex report.
Please suggest a solution for this.

Shortened Fiscal Year and its impact on BI back end and Bex reports

Hi All,
Our client is making some changes to the fiscal year period.
Becuase of some business requirements, we will have to shortened the fiscal year.
Can you please suggest - what are the watch points when we do this?
- what will be the impact to BI back end and Bex reports?
Thanks,
Nisha

Hello Nisha,
Since the fiscal year (Infobjects - 0FISCYEAR and/ 0FISCPER3) is compounded with fiscal year variant, therefore maintaining the correct variant in BI will automatically take care of showing the data correctly.
So there are two things to be maintained in BI:
1) To see that the variant definition.
2) If you need to display the text of the fiscal periods, then the correct texts.
Let me know if you need more clarifications.
Regards,
Shweta

Error generating report in Report writer (GR214, short dump)

Hello
We are making a report in GGR2. When generating the report group, we have dump with error:
Short text of error message:
Internal error.: SAPMGRW2, Include: MGRW2F20, FORM: GEN_DATAFI
ELD.
Long text of error message:
Technical information about the message:
Message class....... "GR"
Number.............. 214
Variable 1.......... "SAPMGRW2"
Variable 2.......... "MGRW2F20"
Variable 3.......... "GEN_DATAFIELD"
Variable 4.......... " "
I have generated as well via GR52 with the same result.
The report i try to generate has about 500 lines, uses a number of existing sets and has simple formulas in it. When i restrict the number of rows to say 400 I donu2019t have the issue. Is there a restriction to rows in report writer?
Thanks for your help
Kai

Hi,
The error you are receiving could be caused by a large number of row blocks in your report definition, (you can check the report definition with report RGRRDC00). A report should not contain too many row and column blocks. It is not possible to give an upper bound for the number of row blocks (since the length of the coding depends on other parts of the report as well). However, even a complicated Report Writer or Report Painter report should not contain more than 50 row blocks, and reports with more than 100 row blocks should not be defined.
In this case the report(s) have to be redefined. Please also refer to the note 387916 for further information regarding this issue.
When there are more than 30 variables in a report, please have a look at the note 332091.
Please reduce the number of row blocks in the report by using the function 'Edit' -> 'Rows' -> 'Explode' in the Report Painter
definition. This function enables several rows to be created for one row block (in the Report Painter definition one row block is just one row). Report Painter (and Report Writer) are designed to display hierarchical reports where the rows in the few row blocks are built up using the 'Explode' function.

Waman

Creating Chart in BeX Report

I have few questions regarding creating Chart in BW Report. One thing I need to make it clear it's a simple BeX Report not a WAD report.
(1) How should I create a chart in the Report?? Should I have to create it in the Excel Sheet once I run the report?
(2) Do I need to create the chart everytime manually once I run the report or is there any way we can save it and everytime we open the Report it should display the chart automatically !!
(3) When users drill up/ drill down or group data in different views, the Chart should be dynamically changed follow the change in data set. Is it possible to do that??
Thanks,

hi,
you can add a chart to your report. it is possible.check out these links for details..

BEx Report Performance with selection-screen input

Hello Gurus,
My Bex report is working fine when the report had run with out PLANT filter in the selection-screen but when report had run with plant in the selection-screen , report running for forever.
Please let me know what I need to do improve the performance.
Saleem.

Hi Saleem, Just a few thoughts;
1. Check the M-table in RSD1 for 0PLANT. In Table View edit any blank or null values. Run the same restrictions you apply in the query at Info provider level > Display Data. If there's any lapse; you can judge where exactly the problem lies.
2. If you are using Infocube & that your master is >20% fact; you can declare the Info object as 'Line Item Dimension'.
3. Create Variants. Esp. if you are running the query for same set of data. Try Variable Preselection: You can restrict both the values + varaiables in the filter level. When you execute the values will be visibly pre-selected in selection screen.
4. As discussed in previous messages, running a SQL trace using RSRT may prove useful.
