Budget to Actual Variance Formula in Scenario Dimension help

I am trying to calculate the Budget to Actual variance by using a member formula in the Scenario dimension.
The formula I'm using is: @VAR("Final"->"Actual" -> &CurrentYear,"Budget");
This formula yields a value that equals the budgeted amount.
The Variance % formula I'm using is: @VARPER("Final"->"Actual" -> &CurrentYear,"Budget")/100;
This % formula equals 100% for most accounts, but is 200% or 300% for other accounts
What am I missing? Many thanks in advance

Jake,
I'm a newbie, so I'm not sure what you mean by cross-dim. I didn't write the formula but it's up to me to figure this out. Yes, I do want to compare budget data to same year actual data.
It is dynamic. A sample retrieve for -200% would be Total Operating Revenues:
Actual = 2,404,789
Budget = 2,117,250
Variance $ = (2,117,250)
Variance % = -200%
A really crazy one is Benefits Rollup:
Actual = 66,353
Budget = 73,817
Variance $ = 73,817
Variance % = 500%
I appreciate your help very much.

Table related to PS - Budget/Committment/Actual/Plan/PO

Hi
I am looking for an Project system table that would generate data based on Project or WBS elements and should provide fields PO number, Vendor, Budget,Plan, Actual,commitment. Can you please help me in finding the report.
Thanks in advance

Hi Swapnika,
You cannot get all the required data in one particular report. However you can get it from 2 different reports. PO number & Vendor details for a project or a WBS element in ME2J (Purchasing Documents Per Project) & the Budget/Actual/Commitmt/Rem.Plan/Assigned for the project from S_ALR_87013558.
Hope this is what you are looking for.

Sale Order Scenario - Report in PS Budget /Actual/Variance

Dear Experts,
Please help me understand solve the scenario given below
Step 1
Work order issued to a contractor ( contract includes Service and Material from the contractor) - Service being the labour part
and Material being the cement
But cement is supplied by the client as a sale of cement at a basic price agreed between the two parties.
Eg:
There are 2 WBS
WBS 1 - has a PR released converted to PO with value 100 ( inclusive service + material)
Material procured through me51n , Me21n - GR done and stock has come to GNST ( 40 rs)
material converted to sale order stock mb1b - 412 E after creating sale order with reference to WBS 2
WBS 2 - reports cost incurred for procurement ie; 40rs
Actual booked against WBS1 based on GR 100
Once the billing is done for rs 20 ( basic price) report in budget actual variance shows as below
                Budget    Actual    Variance
WBS 1      200          100          100
WBS 2                       40           -40
Report should show 120 as the project cost rather than 140 - since 20 is lost against selling at lower cost.
How to get the cost to 120 which is the actual cost for the work

Percentages on the scenario dimension

This must be a common task but I cannot seem to get the right answer.In simplified terms I have various dimensions including:-Accounts with Sales, Raw Mats, Manufacturing, Distribution, Admin Exps.Scenario with Actual, Budget, Actual % of Sales, Budget % of Sales.I need to calculate each member of the Accounts as a % of Sales, to give the data to produce a report like this:--------Act--Act%Sales--Bud--Bud%SalesSales 234 100.0% 250 100.0%RawMat 117 50.0% 100 40.0%Mftg 29 12.4% 25 10.0%Dist 8 3.4% 10 4.0%Admin 48 20.5% 50 20.0% ------------------------------Profit 32 13.7% 65 26.0%What calc script do I need?Many thanks for any help

Formula for Actual%Sales:Actual%Sales;Formula for Budget%Sales:Budget%Sales;If each of these are entered as member formulas in the outline and are dynamic calc, then there is no need for a calc script.The formula's would be the same in a calc script but you would have to ensure that all other relevant values were pre-calculated. The easiest, but not necessarily the quickest or most efficient way, is to have a Calc All; before these items in the script.

Creating scenario dimension and loading data

Hi all,
We have two fact tables. The first one is sales that include quantity and subtotal columns. The other one is budget that include quantity and subtotal. We are working with hyperion essbase 9.3. First of all we are creating two model. For sales model we create 7 dimensions (product, chanell, time, company, currency, customer, account) and 3 attribute dimension and for budget model we create 4 dimensions (account,company,customer,product) in metaoutline. And we create 2 application for each metaoutline. We plan to report sales vs budget but we don't know how to join sales and budget data. Everybody recommends scenario dimension. we don't know how to create sceneraio dimension and in which application Essbase integration or Essbase administration services.
thank you.

I agree with Cameron. The best way is to put them into one cube. Since you are using a SQL source you can manulate it to have your budget load to the same time level as your actuals. For example suppose you load actuals daily and Budget is Monthly. for consistancy, you could load the budget data into the 15th day of the month. At the Monthly level where you would compare budget to actual, the numbers will be correct. Loading into dummy members for the dimensions that don't exist for budget is a common practice when trying to sync up data. If you really want to make it easy, you could union a view to make it look like you have a single fact table (based on the combo of budget and actual) and have a single metadata outline to load everything. I prefer having two because of different load requirements, but this is an option.
If you don't want to go this way, the next option is to partition your budget data into the actuals cube. this would keep them seperate but allow you to see them togeter. Between the two option, I prefer the single cube approach better

Variance Formula: Cost of Service between 2 years

Good day everyone,
I am using BOXI r2 sp 4.
The following variance formula will ONLY work if the client selects the time frame of 1 year. For example 2008-01 to 2008-12
=<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{Enter Billing Year Month Start:"} - <Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{Enter Billing Year Month End:"}
PROBLEM: the client must select 2 years For example 2007-01 to 2008-12
But none of my formulas work.
=<Cost of Service>Where{<[Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}-<Cost of Service>Where{RelativeDate{<Billing Year Month>;-365}}}
or
=<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}-<Cost of Service>Where{RelativeDate{<Billing Year Month>;-365)=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}
or
=<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}-<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}Where{RelativeDate{<Billing Year Month.;-365}}
Someone please put me out of my misery.

Hi Gentlemen,
Thank you for all of your patience, guidance, and expertise trying to create this formula on the report level.
Could either one of you explain the significance of creating these types of formulas at the semantic level vs. the report level? I have been working on the following formulas and reports to varying degrees of success. Once finalized, these templates may be utilized as Opendoc reports between 2 universes.
After a great deal of research, I am inclined to think that these formulas need to be created at the semantic level rather the report level. What is the best way to argue this case to my design team?
REPORT SPECS:
I. FORMULAS:
These reports will have formulas built in for variance analysis. These variants would compare the values versus different time period or constraints (budgets, forecast, etc.):
Vs. Prior Year, Quarter, or Month
Vs. Budget
Vs. Forecast
Vs. Sequential time period/OPEN (This one essentially means the user can pick the time period to compare)
Vs. Productivity / Attributions (more detail needed)
$ Variance
% Variance
Rate = Current Rate - Previous Rate * Current Volume (Cost/Unit)
Volume = Current Volume - Previous Volume * Previous Rate
II. REPORTS:
Report Structure u2013A: Twelve month summary trend report
This report is intended to summarize the product data for any twelve (12) periods. Reporting periods will be monthly, with the maximum capacity for twelve (12) months.
Report Structure u2013 B: Two period variance report
This report is intended to summarize the product data for any two (2) periods and provide variances for each of the product/service details.
Reporting periods will be month vs. month, quarter vs. quarter, YTD vs. YTD or year vs. year. Month vs. month and quarter vs. quarter can be year-over-year comparisons (1Q08 vs. 1Q09) or sequential period comparisons (4Q08 vs. 1Q09).
Report Structureu2013C: Two year, four quarters and total year report
This report is intended to summarize the product data for any two (2) years by quarter and total year.
Reporting periods will be monthly, with the maximum capacity for twelve (12) months.
All of these reports will generate tabs for the total cost, total volumes and average rates per product for the selected periods.
REPORT BUILDER RESEARCH:
In addition to all of your great help, I have found many formulas that would appear to be similarly useful for my requirements, yet my design team has indicated otherwise. For example, I found the following code samples within this and the design forums:
Compare Prompted Period to Previous
DESIGNER LEVEL: create new Filter object
@Select(Sales Dates\Sale Year) = @Prompt
>('Select a Year','Sales Dates\SaleYear',mono,comstrained)OR@Select(SalesDates\Sale Year)+1 = Prompt('Select a Year','N','Sales Dates\Sale Year',mono,comstrained)
This will return the Prompted year as well as the previous year.
UNIVERSE FORMULAS:
count CYTD (Current Year to date)
count PYTD (Previous Year to date)
count CMCY (Current Month Current Year)
count CMPY (Current Month Previous Year)
count CYTD
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,) and data_month<=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,)THEN sales_figures END
count PYTD
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,)-1 and data_month<=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,) THEN sales_figures END
count CMCY
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,) and data_month=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,) THEN sales_figures END
count CMPY
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,)-1 and data_month=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,)THEN sales_figures END
Hereu2019s a sample problem that my design team encountered:
Using a derived table; one of my designers attempted to create the following object, $ Var (A-B) based upon UserResponse for any time frame which he said would not work. Can someone identify the problem here?
SELECT DISTINCT
(T_FA_DATA.BILLING_YEAR_MONTH) as BILLING_YEAR_MONTH,
(select T_FA_DATA.COST_OF_SERVICE from T_FA_DATA where T_FA_DATA.BILLING_YEAR_MONTH=@variable('Enter Billing Year Month End:'))-( select T_FA_DATA.COST_OF_SERVICE from T_FA_DATA where T_FA_DATA.BILLING_YEAR_MONTH=@variable('Enter Billing Year Month Start:')) as SEQ_VAR
FROM
T_FA_DATA
Can someone provide me with a realistic and CRITICAL assessment of this request? I know itu2019s complex but I would greatly appreciate it. In the end, we will create over a dozen reports which, I think also indicates the need for objects at the universe level.
Thanks!

Plan/actual variance per month in a single report

Hi gurus,
MY client requirement is to get the plan/actuals/variance on monthly basis.
can we get that
i said S_ALR_870100185 actual costs montly
S_ALR_870100186 planned costs monthly
please dont say we can achieve it with a new development because i even have the same answer
they need a joint report of these two can we get that
its an urgent issue

Using in the workflow process the element of Scenario dimension which conta

Good day All
In the Scenario dimension has been created element which include as children the some store elements of the Scenario dimension (Plan, Fact ...).
This element has been assigned as scenario element for Planning Unit Hierarchy.
When we start the workflow process the children of its elements (Plan, Fact ...) still available for edit on work form for all users.
Question. Work form contains several elements of Scenario. As in the workflow process close all of these elements, creating only one Planning Unit Hierarchy and run the process only once (in fact, one Scenario).
thanks

The total video bit rate is determined by audio & video. Depending on what rate your video file was encoded at will determine how much room is left for audio. PCM(aiff/wav) audio requires a bigger piece of the pie. Video bit rate too high means your overall(video+audio) rate is going above 9Mbps which the format won't allow. The only way to use aiff would be to lower your video file's data rate. The length of your program is also a factor in all of this.
I had some problems in the past with using aiff instead ac3. Although there shouldn't be any issue I experienced playback issues on some players that couldn't be explained but were cleared up by ac3. I have been using the same specs as Dave's suggestion for almost nine years and have not had any issues with mix, quality, or levels.

An SAP standard report writer is used in the transaction. The report group that is used is 8A26 (T-code GR53 for display).
There is a column set 8A-STOCK.GLPCT that uses the basic set 8A-VT-BIS.GLPCT for the field period (GLPCT-RPMAX). This is set to from value 0 to &8A-BIS (variable). Therefore when you enter 3 for march, it takes the value cumulative to 3 or whatever period you enter.
You could copy this report and change the values suit your requirement.

Hi Nadini,
Thats cool. I have assigned points.
Another question. S_ALR_87013326 shows balance sheet accounts as well with zero balances. Is there a way to eliminate these accounts or populate them with the relevant values.

How can i subtract budget and actuals amount from gl_balances in discoverer

I have a problem with a discoverer report.
The table is GL_BALANCES (Financials), and i tried to subtract data of current year and last year, same month, or data from actuals and budgets amounts.
Data from actuals have the "A" code in the ACTUAL_FLAG field, and budgets amounts have a "B" code. I construct a cross-tab report with ACTUAL_FLAG field in the "X" axis and the accounts segments in the "Y" axis (From GL_CODE_COMBINATIONS). The problem is: How can i substract budget and actuals amounts? Is the same field but differents columns in report.
I cannot use analytics function because the version of database does not support that .
Somebody told me: "...You need to construct a custom folder to handle this..."
I don't want to finish the reports in Excel...
Thanks.

Hi Miguel
You can either create a database view or custom folder to do this using aliases for the two joins to the same table.
For example, you need something like this in the body of the SQL:
select
act.code_combination_id,
nvl(act.period_net_dr,0) actual_net,
nvl(bgt.period_net_dt,0) budget_net,
nvl(bgt.period_net_dt,0) - nvl(act.period_net_dr,0) diff,
act.period_name
from
gl_balances act,
gl_balances bgt
where
act.set_of_books_id = bgt.set_of_books_id and
act.code_combination_id = bgt.code_combination_id and
act.period_name = bgt.period_name
Of course you will still need to add your own joins to get the code combinations but I trust you get the gist.
Hope this helps

Michael

Budget Vs Actual report for FM

Hi SAP FM Gurus
We had implemented BCS in ECC 6.0. We are able to get the availability control for the commitment item & fund centre through the release procedure for specific periods.
In the above said situtaion, we are facing the following issues.
1. The Budget is released for 2nd period of a fiscal year. But when we make the PO for 3rd period, the system is not checking whether the budget is released for that period & the system is checking only the released budget for the whole year.
Solution Required : If we release the budget for a specific period, the actuals should be postable against that period only and not for the other period.
2. We want to know about the standard report to know about the Budget Vs Actual for a given fund centre / Commitment Item for a given period & not for the whole year.
Through some light on the abovesaid issue.

I am attaching an extract of ther post
The periodic or YTD consolidation of values is a matter of sequence. Note that the following discussion applies to Flow accounts (Income, Expense and Flow types).
When ConsolidateYTD flag of the scenario dimension is checked, HFM first consolidates the YTD values of accounts and then calculates the periodic values at the consolidated (group) level.
Conversely, when ConsolidateYTD flat is un-checked, HFM first consolidates periodic values of accounts and then at consolidated (group) level it forms the YTD amounts.
In both cases, whether you have loaded periodic or YTD values is irrelevant. The consolidation happens with the sequence described in each case above.
So, you think "what's the difference?". In fact there is no difference until you introduce a new subsidiary in the middle of the year. In this case you need to consolidate only the periodic values of accounts, starting on the month that the subsidiary was introduced to the group structure. If you don't the accumulated amounts from previous periods (YTD values) will consolidate, which you don't want.
For example: you introduce a new subsidiary during March. Until March the YTD value of sales was 100. During March the periodic value is 50, therefore the YTD sales for March is 150. You don't want to consolidate 150 since you did not own the company during the previous months. You need to consolidate only 50. In order to do this you have to populate the flow accounts for at least Feb so that HFM will calculate the periodic value for March correctly. In this case the contribution of the new subsidiary to the consolidated sales account for March is 50.
