BPC - Multiple Dimensions in Row Expansion - NOEXPAND issue

I have an EVDRE report in BPC where I am expanding on two different dimensions in the row (Entity, Geography). I want the Entity Dimension to dynamically expand. However, I want the Geography dimension to be static so I am using a NOEXPAND. The issue I am having is that now Entity won't expand when I change my CV.
Does anyone have a solution to this issue?
Thanks.

Marvin,
Thanks for the response. Let me start by saying the opposite is true. There can be many entities under one geography which is why I made the Geography a property of Entity so I think we are ok there.
I think I am still a little unclear how that code you provided will only give the Geography that is associated with a particular Entity on the Row Key.
Let me explain:
Ihave an Entity Dimension [E1, E2, E3] and a Geography Dimension [G1, G2]. I also have a property in the Entity Dimension that tells me which GEO_ID each Entity belongs to (i.e. E1->G1, E2->G1, E3->G2).
If I have an input schedule with static rows, I can use an EVPRO in the second column of the row key to pull out the proper Geography key. However if I have a dynamic row expansion I will get the following:
E1, G1
E1, G2
E2, G1
E2, G2
E3, G1
E3, G2
But what I really want is just
E1, G1
E2, G1
E3, G2
Because those are the proper mappings. Does this make more sense? Is there a way to accomplish this dynamically? The only way I have been able to do it thus far is by use a cell key range In which I take out geography from the row expansion and use an EVPRO in the cell key range to provide the proper Geography ID.
Thanks for the help.

Report with multiple dimensions in Row and Column with EvEXP

Hi
We are currently running BPC 7.0 SP3 and try to create the report(or schedule) with more 2 x 2 dimensions in the row and column.
e.g.
row dimension : Outer row is Entity, Inner row is Account
column dimension : Outer column is Time, Inner row is Category
We created the report with 2 x 2 dimensions like above e.g. with EvEXP and EvNXP, NOT EvDRE
based on default dynamic template:Template13.xlt(Nested Row, 2 x 1 dimensions defined by EvEXP and EvNXP formula).
However, when expanding the dimension with double click these dimensions or change CV of the report with 2 x 2 dimensions defined by EvEXP and EvNXP formula,
error occurs on EvEXP and EvNXP formula and can't retrieve the result correctly.
[Question]
Can't we create the report with more 2 x 2 dimensions in the row and column using EvEXP and EvNXP function ?
We understand that we can make the report with more 2 x 2 dimensions in the row and column if using EvDRE.
Thank You in advance
Kenya

Thank you for your advice.
I understand that we should use EvDRE when creating the report with multiple dimension in the row/column　because EvEXP have some erros, poor performance, etc.
Then, we have two questions.
1)
>plus they had some errors in the designs.
what kind of errors they have as an example?
2)
>If you must build the EVEXP and EVNXP, I would suggest building the template from scratch
We built the simple template with just 2 x 2 dimension from scratch.
But this report doesn't work well when double-click the dimension or changing CV...
Would you please check the following template?
<https://sapmats-de.sap-ag.de/download/download.cgi?id=RCZE1ME4YSORY3DCDO4NNMANZLBL1L5ZBUOB2F71YVNVS8XDJW>
It would be greatly appreciated if you could give me your advice for the template.
Thank you again
And my best regards,
Kenya

BPC limitations Dimensions/Performance

What is the limitation on the number of dimensions BPC (Outlooksoft) can have? And how is the performance affected with more or less dimensions being used on BPC Excel. Is there and performance measure in place?
Thanks

For SAP BPC 5.1, SAP recommends max of 20 dimensions per application. I had an application which had 15 dimensions and one of the biggest templates (excel) had 5 dimensions in row expansion and 1 dimension (time) in column expansion. The template had close to 1000 rows of data and it used to take close to 6 minutes to open. This has been my worst experience.
I am not sure if there is a performance metrics published by SAP but you might find something in their implementation guides.
Thanks,

BPC 7.5 MS Drill Down works on one dimension in rows but not the other

Good day,
Working in BPC 7.5 MS. I have a piped report with 3 dimensions in rows. Members in the first dimension are hard-coded in the expand range. The second dimension is a combination of SELF and DEP members. The third is set to SELF. In our original AppSet, I can double-click drill down on both the second and third dimensions without issue.
I've re-created this report in a new AppSet (same BPC version). All settings are essentially identical (I've double and triple checked). The drill down works on the second dimension, but not the third. I've run out of places to look to find the problem. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
Kim

It took a while but I finally found some quiet time to re-visit this issue. Thank you for the suggestions above. Ultimately I verified that the hierarchy, member selection and tables were all ok.
My next step was to create a new EVDRE with the same members and slowly factor in the piping, membersets, etc. Drill down worked appropriately. So that told me something else was at work.
Turns out the problem was with one of the 'display' columns to the right of the row key range. These columns use formulas to display a triangle if the member isn't calc, thus giving the end user a visual clue that you can drill down on the member. Long story short, BPC just didn't like that formula. A minor change (along with some conditional formatting to replace the piece of formula that was removed) eliminated the problem. Drill down is now working.

Multiple Dimension using EVDRE

Hello,
Can you kindly confirm if its possible to use EVDRE to generate a report using multiple dimension in one column and another set of dimensions in the next column?
Example:
Row= Account
ColumnA= Version: Actual and Time: 2009. Jan.
Column B: Version: Budget and Time: 2008. Jan
Thanks,
Katherine

Thanks for below advise but when I tried to test it, it seems that it resulted to duplicate column.

But I only need the 3 columns, is there a formula I can use to supress the unnecessary columns its of manually deleting it?
Thanks,

How can I delete multiple of N rows from a 2D array

Hi,
Let's say I have a 2D array with 20 rows and 10 columns. How can I - for example- remove multiple of 5 rows programmatically ( rows 0,5,10 and 15)
Thanks

Or a FOR loop with conditiional autoindexing tunnels. That would be less prone to fun issues with arrays.

MAXL - using multiple Dimension build rules in single script...

I seem to be having problems running multiple Dimension build rules in a single MAXL script, is this a known problem or just an issue that I'm having? The build rules independently work as designed but when joined into a single script the script hangs...
So, this is a 2 part question...
1) Does MAXL not play nice when using multiple Dimension load rules in a single script?
2) Do I need to run the build rules independent of each other?
Also, is there some type of refresh/update on the cube that you can use in the script and would it be necessary...?
Thanks for any light you can shed on the issue.
Adam,

I've written multiple dimension build statements as a part of 1 long MaxL statement. I'm executing this MaxL via a shell script (that replaces the variables such as username, password, servername, file path etc.) I've not seen any issues doing so.
However, I've noted that, number of imports statements in 1 single MaxL command does not bode well for more than *60* import statements at once. So, if you're using more than 60 source files to build your dimensions, please consider breaking up your MaxL into multiple statements.
Note: All but last of the import statements have 'deferred' re-structure specified. It speeds up the build process.

Problem in .rtf template with 2 dimensions in rows section

There is a problem with standard .rtf template: if we select two dimensions in rows, table header (with months) moves left to the position of the second column of row dimension like there is only one dimension in rows (i tested even with 4 dimension in rows, header still starts from the position of the second column of row dimension), in any case default template acts like there is only one dimension in a rows section when a report is being formed, if anybody has already faced that problem maybe you could share an advice to fix it?
p.s. We usually use 1 and 2 dimension in rows

i have a suggestion that there is a problem with colspan parameter in xml file that is built when HP starts creating pdf report, could anybody advise where i can find this xml that is used for creating report?

We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 for our church worship service; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing. Has this issue been resolved? Thank you!

We run an iMac 3.4 GHz I7 in our church worship service; we have front screens and a stage display monitor ; we haven't upgraded to Mavericks because we heard about issues with multiple screens crashing. Has this issue been resolved? Now that we are 2 upgrades behind, I'm getting little concerned. Thank you!

Oh, well that was a whole other kettle of fish:
Oh the G4 I attempted to install iLife '08 before Lepoard was available. About the only thing that installed cleanly was iPhoto. I ended up reinstalling everything back to iLife '06, and then upgrading back to the current stable version of the iLife '06 version. I didn't attempt a reinstall until after I upgraded to Leopard.
When I did reinstall, I made a iLife '06 folder, copied all iLife apps into it, and upgraded. Seemed to work, except for the part where iMovie gets left behind and iDVD is only mostly functional.
When I installed on the other 2 machines, it was after installing Leopard and all upgrades. On those 2 machines, I didn't bother with the copy, I just moved everything to the iLife '06 folder I created, and did a fresh install.
I didn't have to do anything with the iPhoto Libraries, that I can recall.
I always do an upgrade, never an archive and install. I've never had a problem with this back to 10.1 or 10.2.

How to save multiple vendors at row level.

hi.
I need a small information.
One of my client is having one requirement.
ie.in purchase Requst each item at item details they want to add vendor details nothing but vendor code
all ready default one vendor column is there at row level , but each itme may haing 1.......10
if it is 1 i requirement is over all ready b1 has given but i want to save more than one
i dont want to use any customization is there any way to add multiple vendors at row level..
Any information plz udpate me..
i dont want to run any customizaion...

Hi,
Please explain your requirement with an example. Why do want save multiple vendor code at row level?
In SAP, we have an option to create purchase quotation for multiple vendors at time. For this, you have to add preferred vendor in item mater data.
Not sure, same way you can apply for this to purchase request.
Thanks & Regards,

Multiple dimensions from single logical table

Hi,
I cannot seem to create multiple dimensions based one one single logical table. For example, I have a Time table from which I'd like to create a calendar time dimension and a fiscal time dimension. However, as soon as one dimension is created, I cannot create another dimension from the same logical table.
Is it possible?
Thanks

Jlin,
If I understood your requirement correctly you need to create multiple Hierarchies out of a single Logical Dimension table, this is possibe the base rule for creating a hierarchy is you should have a common starting point( Grand Total Level) and a common ending point( Detail Level), first create this and create sublevels and share the Detail Level as a child. This will allow you to create multiple hiearchies out of a single dimension. One level will have drill down on the Calendar dimension and one one the Fiscal and both will have the common detail key like day key.Hope this helps.

Multiple selection of rows in webdynpro

Hi All,
How can we achieve the multiple selection of rows in a table in webdynpro and delete the same.
If i have a table with 4 rows i have selected 2 rows and i have to delete those 2 rows.
Thanks in Advance,
Bsreddy.

Hi Srinivas,
Steps to make multiple rows selectable in table:
1) Create the selection property of the node that you are binding to the table as o..n
2) Un-check the, "Initialization Lead Selection" checkbox for the node which you are using to bind to the table
3) In the Layout go to the table & specify selection mode as MULTI_NO_LEAD. It is important that you set the selection mode to MULTI_NO_LEAD or else in the end you would be capturing 1 row lesser than the total number of rows the user has selected. This is because 1 of the rows would have the LeadSelection property & our logic wouldn't be reading the data for that row. Check the example code fragment as shown below:
Steps to get the multiple rows selected by the user:
In order to get the multiple rows which were selected by the user you will just have to call the get_selected_elements method of if_wd_context_node. First get the reference of the node which you have used to bind to the table & then call this method on it. Check the example code fragment below:
METHOD get_selected_rows .
DATA: temp TYPE string.
DATA: lr_node TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node,
            wa_temp TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
            ls_node1 TYPE wd_this->element_node_flighttab,
            lt_node1 TYPE wd_this->elements_node_flighttab.
lr_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'NODE_FLIGHTTAB' ).
" This would now contain the references of all the selected rows
lt_temp = lr_node->get_selected_elements( ).
    LOOP AT lt_temp INTO wa_temp.
" Use the references to get the exact row data
      CALL METHOD wa_temp->get_static_attributes
        IMPORTING
          static_attributes = ls_node1.
      APPEND ls_node1 TO lt_node1.
      CLEAR ls_node1.
    ENDLOOP.
ENDMETHOD.
So now lt_node1 containes information about all the rows which are selected by the user.

Multiple tree structured rows in output header

Hi All,
I have a requirement to create an output layout in which there are 3 dynamic rows in header and each row is having its own sub devision (like a tree structure). The number of columns will depend upon the data.
I am able to create N number of dynamic columns according to data fetched at run time but dont know how to create multiple tree structures rows in header.
Can any one please suggest how can I achieve this in SAP?

Multiple Dimension Builds using MAXL

We currently use ESSCMND to perform multiple dimension builds and data loads. We have been using the "INCBUILDDIM" in Escmnd to update the outline with multiple files without restructuring until the last file. Is there an equivalent command for MAXL ??

Yes, you can mimic the BEGININCBUILDDIM command from ESSCMD in version 6.5. I've appended a sample script below to show that functionality. Until you upgrade to V6.5 you could shell to Esscmd and do your dim builds there. login 'xxx' 'PASSWORD' on 'LOCALHOST'; spool on to 'd:\ESSBASE\CLIENT\OUTPUT.LOG'; alter system load application 'SAMPTEST'; alter application 'SAMPTEST' load database 'BASIC'; import database 'SAMPTEST'.'BASIC' dimensions from server text data_file 'ACCTBLD1.TXT' using server rules_file 'ACTBLD.RUL', from server text data_file 'ACCTBLD2.TXT' using server rules_file 'ACTBLD.RUL' preserve all data on error append to 'ERR.OUT'; spool off; logout; exit;

Hello Tijomon,
Looking at the warning it seems the query being build is not good. Some possibilities are:
~ you have multi select enabled in the front end on a single select dimension
~ the index was moved from one environment to other and some of the dimension values do not match (due to the state being different)
HTH,
Pankaj.
