BEx - show key only for variables (filters) chosen

We have a custom build fiscal period (ZFISCPER) that has a reference characteristic of 0CALMONTH.  We have used 0CALMONTH as a reference char to benefit from some of the features of it.  One feature that we don't like is the description.  For example period 1's description is JAN, period 2 is FEB. 
The users do not want to see the description at all, so we have chosen to only use the key as the display in BEx.  This works fine except when the user chooses a value from the variable screen for fiscal period.  When the report is displayed, just above the values, the filter values are displayed:
Fiscal Year Variant     Fiscal Week Calendar
Fiscal Period/Year     JUL 2007
Is there any way to make the filter information show the key instead of the description?

On the BEx toolbar you will find the option of choosing LAYOUT. Click on it and then choose DISPLAY TEXT ELEMENTS -> VARIABLES. This will list all the variables of the query (both key and text listed in separate rows for each variable). Then you can delete the rows that contain the texts and just keep the rows with KEY description. When done save the workbook.
<i>Note:</i> This approach would work only if your client is running queries using workbooks with standard templates.
Hope this helps.

    Cannot get iPad 2 charged beyond 1%.  All charging ports tried: AC adapter(s), USB 2 port on MacBook Pro. ITunes shows iPad only for a few seconds. iPad displays alternately: Apple logo, battery w/slim red band, then battery w/1% charged information. How can I get it to charge beyond 1% so I can proceed to troubleshoot?

    I have had your exact problem with my old 3GS, now I cannot even get it to turn on, I still see that it is supposed to be charging though, but it never charges any so it seems.
    I replaced the Lower Dock Connector Assembly back when it still charged while hooked to my PC, and it found it made no real difference.

  • SAP BEX Analyzer Set values for variables

    Please help us out in sorting out this problem,
    We are automating BEx Analyzer for a Testing Project with Quick Test Professional (QTP) a functional automation tool uses VB script.
    Problem:
    There are 5 steps in automation
    Invoke BEx Application
    Log in to BEx server
    Run Query
    Set values for Variables for Query
    Display Report
    We are able to do 1,2,3 steps using BEx API functions and running BEx macros but we struck up with 4th step,
    1. Invoke BEx Application
    ‘Launch Excel
    Dim app
    Set app = createobject("Excel.Application")
    ‘Make it visible
    app.Visible = true
    ‘Attach add-in to Excel file
    app.Run ("'C:\Program Files\SAP\Business Explorer\BI\BExAnalyzer.xla'!SetStart")
    2. Log in to BEx server
    Login to Bex server
    Function logonToBW(app)
    Dim myConnection
    Dim logonToBW2
    On Error Resume Next
    logonToBW2 = True

    3. Run a Query
    app.Run "'C:\Program Files\SAP\Business Explorer\BI\BExAnalyzer.xla'! runQuery", "ZZCCA3_M01_Q0003"
    Till here the script is running fine then the “Select values for Variables” window is displayed.
    This is where exactly we struck up; in this window we need to select values.
    Name of the Fields
         Field Name     Technical name of characteristic     Variable Name     Value

    5     Fiscal Year     0FISCYEAR     0P_FYEAR     2007
    To select values for variables, we are trying below code but its giving an error,
    app.Run  "'C:\Program Files\SAP\Business Explorer\BI\BExAnalyzer.xla'!SAPBEXSetFilterValue", “1000”, "0COMP_CODE"
    app.Run  "'C:\Program Files\SAP\Business Explorer\BI\BExAnalyzer.xla'!SAPBEXSetFilterValue", “1000MDON”, " 0COSTCENTER "

  • Bex query-KEY date for time dependent objects

    Hi
    I have one infoobject called 0customer that has one time dependent attribute .called status. I would know how the system works in the following senario for the a given key date(which in bex properties).
    question 1)
    customer todate          fromdate    status
    1            20071231     20070101     Y
    1            20081231     20080101      N
    1            20091231     20081101      X
    can the data in the infoobject be overlapped? is the 3 rd record is  valid in the above example - as months(11&12of2008)  overlapping with second record? ? pls advise
    question 2)
    customer todate          fromdate    status
    1            20071231     20070101     Y
    1            20081231     20080101      N
    1            20091231     20090101      X
    If the keydate is 20080201 which record will it return?would it return the record that has status 'N'?
    what does the keydate is compared against? is it with from date or todate or between fromdate and todate? does the query return only one customer record for a given customer when it runs in the query?
    Please advise.
    Thanks
    Vennela

    1) Normally you cannot activate the data with this constellation. If you have inconsistent master data you can repair with transaction RSRV.
    2) The system returns N for key data 20080201.
    Best regards

  • Cap locks key only for logic instruments?

    Had the misfortune of getting my upgrade to Logic 9 and having to take my synth in for servicing in the same week. So I have to use the Cap Lock's keyboard to play the instruments until I get my synth back. I have a curious problem though. The cap lock's keyboard will play logic instruments but not Zebra 2 or Battery 3. Is this normal?

    Maybe you need to change Octave by pressing the numeric keys on your mac keyboard(2) (changes will displayed >(1) below)

  • Website shows 404 only for us on BT.

    Doesn't work. 404 - Not Found
    If you type it in without the www.as below:

    It suddenly works.
    Now, this problem ONLY occurs when using default BT DNS servers. Is there a problem?
    As soon as I change to OpenDNS or Google's DNS servers it works.
    Note: The website is hosted via 1&1 on the business package which is Microsoft IIS.

    It works fine for me on either.
    Its not just two ways of writing the URL, its two different web addresses which could potentially point to different server ips.  You could use nslookup from a command prompt for a little more info.

  • Key and text for variable

    Dear ALL,
    I m having one variable for that i need key and text in bex analyzer.
    how to enable the key and text for a variable.
    pls asap
    regards,
    Jenish

    Hi jenish kumar ,
    if i under stan your requirement correctly,  need to have both text and key values for variables with F4 help.
    you need to chnage the properties of that infoobject at infoobjects level or at infoprovider level,
    this is at infoprovider level
    in RSA1-> go to change mode of infoprovider (Multiprovider/ cube) on which Query is build) then Expand  Charecteristc Dimension -> select infoobject -> right -> select provider-specific properties -> select Display '0 Key and Text' . Activate infoprovider and Run Query and check the Selection screen.
    hope this helps

  • Rectrict list of possible values for variable in Bex

    Hello folks!
    I need to give a user possibility to choose only few value for variable in Bex report. Number of entries in master data is huge. I need to show only 7 possible values in the window with variables.

    Amy,
    You have a tricky requirement but I can only think of one thing but it would require user training. Try the following.
    You can setup a new variable with default values and define it as type multiple single values.
    The user could in the variable screen would then need to take out the ones that are not needed.
    Hope this helps.

  • Budget Report to show the fixed and variable split for Materials

    Hello Gurus,
    Could you tell me if there is a budget standards report that will show the fixed and variable split for Materials? Example: Labor, Equip., QC and Overheads? 
    I need it for the correctly rolled-up 'final material number' step.  The report that does this now (without fixed and var split) is the Indented BOM Comparison (sret - cost mgmt-product costing - cost mgmt-customized reports - cost estimate comparison - costed multilevel compare rpt - Indented BOM Comparison).
    Thanks,

    one simple way is in your final itab declare a slno type i field
    data : begin of itab occurs 0,
    slno type i,
    <other fields>
    end of itab.
    after filling the data in itab.
    loop at itab.
    itab-slno = sy-tabix.
    modify itab.
    endloop.
    in fieldcatalog also you have to define that slno field as the first column.
    but it will change its order if you are sorting the output or filtering the output.

  • How to cumulate key figure for whole fiscal year with one time variable?

    Hello everybody!
    I have a problem creating a query that allows to get cumulated key figure for <b>whole fiscal year</b> (FY), when I actualy type <b>only last period</b> for the FY.
    The query itself is very simple:

    - I have "Fiscal year variant" 0FISCVARNT defined in "Filter" that has 12 periods within Fiscal year
    and then
    - in section "Free Characteristics" I have "Fiscal year/period" 0FISCPER.
    I want to be able to provide ONE single value when run query, which is last period of a FY (like 012/2003), but then in report see cummulated number of invoices for WHOLE fiscal year.
    Will appreciate any help!

  • How do you change the variable screen on Portal to show Key?

    Hi All,
    I have a report on our Portal.  In the variable screen, the users are asked to optionally enter Cost Centre.  When they choose to select values (pressing the button on the right) the singles values which are shown are 'Text' only.  I know in analyser, the user can switch by selecting the spanner icon - 'Display Key/Text'
    How do you change to Key within the variable screen on the portal?
    Many Thanks
    Michelle

    Thank you for your reply Amrita,
    The display in the query had been set to Text & Key as follows
    Properties of Cost Centre -> Display Tab -> Value Display Section -> Display As 'Text and Key', Text View 'Standard' and Use Characteristic Setting 'Unticked'
    Is there another section that I should be amending to ensure the 'Key' also appears in the variable screen?
    Many Thanks,
    Michelle

  • Show different key fields for different caracteristics in the column.

    Hi, experts
    I am creating a query where there are 4 colomns reprensenting 4 different dates. But I would like to display diffferent key fields for them. For example, under DAY 1, i would like to diplay KeyField 1, for DAY2, DAY3 and DAY4, KeyField 2 et 3 will be added under them.
    To do that, i made these key fields "Constant selection" and made some definition in the cells-------
    On the line of DAY1 in the colomn KeyField 2 and KeyField 3, I made them "Always Hide".
    But I didn't get what i wanted as the two columns (KF2 et KF3) still appear in the report, even if there are no data in these two columns.
    Is it possible to realise this requirement:
    DAY1   DAY2          DAY3
    KF1     KF2    KF3   KF2     KF3
    Thanks in advance!!!!

    There is no need to define a cell for this, use a restricted key figure:
    KF1 needs to be restricted by Day1
    KF2 restrict it by Day2 and so on,
    and use those restricted figure in the key figure section, but to make the column more descriptive use a text variable for the name of the columns.
    this should be easier than cell definition.
    thanks.
