BW-Hierarchy node variable in Crystal Report

Hi crystal gurus,
I am creating a report on top of BW-Query Using SAP toolbar. We are having a Hierarchy node variable for WBS Element in our Bw-Query.
Now that hierarchy node variable is not behaving properly in crystal reports.
When I execute Query at BW side it Provides me with proper result, say for example if i execute the query for a WBS element "X" and that element consists of other elements inside it like A, B, C etc then at BW side it gives me proper data considering all the WBS elements but in Crystal reports the Data returned is just for the Specified WBS element, i.e it return me data specific to WBS element "X" only.
Any Ideas why this is happening and how to resolve this?
Any help will be Appreciated.
Thanks & regards
Neeraj

Hi Debi,
thank you very much for your reply, but i am afraid that you may have misunderstood my Question.
Actually I am using a hierarchy node variable, and as usual that hierarchy node has certain level. so when i m executing the report in CR say for node value/level  L1 then it provides me data specific for the node L1 only but logically it should provide me with data of node L1 and all other nodes below L1& that is not happening in my case. while whenever i m executing the same report with same values at BW Side it provides me proper result I.E. it provides me data for node L1 and all other nodes below it.
Hope this makes my Ques clear.
Thanks & Regards
Neeraj

  • How to pass a hierarchy node variable value over OpenDocument?

    Hello,
    I have been unable to link to an instance with matching parameters with opendocument with hierarchy node variables.
    Has anyone attempted this or been successful?
    Please reference this post I had in the Web Intelligence forum.  sInstance=Param not working for sap bw query based reports (FWM 02020)
    Here's some background information
    We've created 2 new crystal reports based of sap queries.
    Report 1, single prompt, no hierarchy.
    Result : Can link to specific instance with matching parameters. Great!
    Report 2, single prompt, hierarchy based.
    Result: Cannot link to specific instance with matching parameters
    Parameter list for report 2
    [!V000001} : Cost Center/Gr{oup (Multiple) = {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
    However when I go into the history and look at the successful instance parameters used, it seems to be picking up an extra parameter ( my guess is node)
    XXX, XXX & XXX; {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
    We have attempted to use the entire string, the first portion, second portion, and just the technical response. No luck.
    Any help or pointers would be appreciated!

    Hello  Ingo,
    I'll explain the situation more clearly,
    Report 2, single prompt, hierarchy based.
    Result: Cannot link to specific instance with matching parameters with a response from the Bus Objects server
    An error has occurred: The object with ID -1 does not exist in the CMS or you don't have the right to access it (FWM 02020)
    We have 1 parameter for report 2
    {!V000001} : Cost Center/Group (Multiple)
    We selected a single value:
    {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
    (The XXX, XXX, & XXX is the description)
    We ran a successful instance.
    However when I go into the history and look at the successful instance parameters used it displays the following: 
    XXX, XXX & XXX; {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
    An extra description seems to appear (The first XXX, XXX & XXX;) Our original selection was only {0COSTCENTER   XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
    We attempted to build variations of the open document strings
    1. We tried the entire parameter response,
    XXX, XXX & XXX; {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
    2. The first description that was not part of the original selection,
    XXX, XXX & XXX
    3. The technical name and description
    {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
    4. The technical name

  • Hierarchy node value in the report

    Hi all,
    I have a 0cost center for which master data hierarchy has been loaded.
    This 0costcenter has 4 hierarchy nodes and under each node there are few cost centers.
    Say these nodes are zones then under each zone there are few costcenters.
    Now my question is in the reporting I want to see the costcenters Zonal wise.
    Say if I want to see only the zone 1 and the rest three zones should not get visible or displayed  then how  could I do that?.
    How can I restrict the other User viewing my zone and the cost centers and their values?
    I want a report based on zones and that to with authorization?
    Thx

    Hi Simon,
    Yes as you said I create a hierarchy node variables for zone 1 ,zone2, zone3, and zone4 and as per the requirement I can call the variable to display the data zone wise.
    When it comes for Users then how could I restrict the variables according to the Users?
    As you said how to fill the node with authorization?
    How to use standard authorizations and where can I find them?
    And how can I fill them at run time?
    how to use personalisation to default in per user the value of the node and then not allow the variable to be user selected, how to do this ?
    plz explain
    Thx

  • Hierarchy Node Variable is not displaying full list of Hierarchy

    Hi,
    I loaded Hierarchy  to an info object using flat file.
    When i created a test reports and settings to display of MAster Data of Char and executed the report
    The output displays full list of Hierarchy
    Now to have a User Entry on Hierarchy ...created a Hierarchy Node variable and executed the value help of Hierarchy Node variable is not displaying fill list of Hierarchy ...its only displaying first 15 entries in Hierarchy.
    I changed the settings of variable...etc but couldn't get the Hierarchy full list in User entry selection
    How can i fix it...
    Thanks in advance

    If anyone has the same problem, I think I found the reason when transported to production.
    BW7.3 (at least) can not show the hierarchy nodes if there is no transactional data loaded.
    So do your hierarchies only after the data has been loaded..

  • Passing hierarchy node variable in a hyperlink

    Hi,
    We are on XI 3.1 SP3.
    We have a BW summary query with hierarchy active, with hierarchy node variable as "optional" selection variable. Created Universe based on the query and built a WebI report. Have activated "Drill". That way we are able to drill down per the levels. This works fine.
    We have another BW detail query with optional hierarchy node selection. Created a universe and a WebI report for the detail report..
    When we try to create a hyperlink from the summary WebI report to the detail WebI report in "display" mode, creation of Hyperlink is very intutive. We are able to pass parameters.and the hyperlink works fine.
    The only problem occurs when we try to pass the hierarchy node variable value. The value of the hierarchy node gets passed, but the report does not bring over any data,
    Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround.
    Kindly advice.
    Rgds

    Hello,
    Ingo, thanks for your comment Sorry for the delayed response.
    Let me explain my scenario. On my report I have the following:
    1. Sales Hierarchy (5 level hierarchy)
    2. Product Group (Hyperlink created - want to pass Sales Hierarchy node value + Product group to detail report)
    3. Key Figure 1
    4. Key Figure 2
    I have activated drill which allows me to drill down the Sales Hierarchy.
    Scenaio A.  Pass just the Product Group Key. Success
    If I just pass the  "Product Group Key", the detail report shows me the data for the specific Product Group as expected. This is a successful test
    Scenario B -  Pass the Sales Hierarchy Node key and the Product Group Key Fails
    In this case, I am passing the "Product Group key" along with the "L00 Sales Hierarchy key". When I click on the hyperlink, it gives me an empty detail report. I know for sure that values exist for all levels. If I run my detail report stand-alone, I am able to get values for all levels.
    However if I drill down to the last level in the Sales Hierarchy, the detail report shows correct value. For last level, the Sales Hierarchy Node value gets passed correctly along with the Product Group key.
    URL generated is as follows:
    http://<bobj server>:<port number>AnalyticalReporting/WebiView.do?bypassLatestInstance=true&cafWebSesInit=true&appKind=InfoView&service=/InfoViewApp/common/appService.do&loc=en&pvl=en&actId=216&objIds=6933&containerId=6923&bypassLatestInstance=true&lsMProductGroup=11101101&lsSGeoSales+Hierarchy=B01&isApplication=false&pref=maxOpageU%3D10%3BmaxOpageUt%3D200%3BmaxOpageC%3D10%3Btz%3DAmerica%2FDenver%3BmUnit%3Dinch%3BshowFilters%3Dtrue%3BsmtpFrom%3Dtrue%3BpromptForUnsavedData%3Dtrue%3B&sRefresh=N
    In the URL you can see that correct values are getting passed
    Product+Group=11101101
    Sales+Hierarchy=B01
    Do I need to append any value to the "B01" value ?
    I did not understand the part about appending [ ] or 0HIER.
    Can you please explain.
    Thnaks for all your help.

  • Hierarchy Node Variables in Selection Screen

    Hi Experts!
    I have a hierarchy Node variables of  InfoObject in BEx. When I execute the report, I choose Hierarchy variables in Selection screen of BEx Web. I see all of attributes of infoObject, I want to reject all of those.
    Suppose that:  In infoObject 0COSTCENTER has attributes (Controlling Area, BusinessArea, CompanyCode, ProfitCenter u2026.), I donu2019t need to see those attributes of Costcenter when I choose node in Hierarchy variables. I only want to get the CostCenter. Please some advise to solve that issue or how can I do that?
    Thanks in advance,

    hii
    Try This:
    Double click on the info object
    then go to the Hierarchy Tab
    here u find a button of External Char in hierarchies
    Click on this
    On right hand side u find some of the attributes of the info object
    place them on left hand side
    Execute it & activate the Info object.

  • Hierarchy Node Variable not working

    Hello,
    I created two variable one being Hierarchy Node variable and other Hierarchy variable.
    I am using this for the Internal order hierarchy.
    I amd also working on 2004s and not 3.5 version.
    I restricted the Internal order and then selected the variable and then selected the nodes and before moving the Nodes variable, I also selected the Variable for the Hierarchy and then moved the Node variable to the right screen.
    When I run the report, the option for the selecting the Hierarchy appears and I selected the correct Hierarchy, but when I go to the Hierarchy Node variable, I do not see the Nodes for that Hierarchy I selected in the first variable and it always like a fixed value Hierarchy defaults to the first Hierarchy.  Hence I am unable to select the node to execute the report.
    I would appreciate any ones feedback.
    Thanks
    Sundar

    I am working in 2004s as well (SP11) and I am trying to do the same type of thing.
    I have multiple cost center hieriarchies that the user can choose from at run-time using the hierachy variable.
    Then once the user chooses to the hierarchy they then should go choose a specific node that they want to run for in that hierarchy using the Cost Center Hierarchy Node variable (using the hierarchy variable, not fixed hierarchy).
    When I run this in the web I am allowed to choose one of the multiple cost center hierarchies... this means that the hierarchy variable is working, however when i go to choose the specific cost center node for that hierarchy it uses the defult cost center hierarchy instead of the one selected in the selection screen.
    If anyone can shed some light on this it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Can I access Infoset variable from Crystal Reports

    Hi,
    In order to connect Crystal Reports 2008 to the SAP environment I have the Integration kit.
    I have learnt that Crystal also offers InfoSet driver to connect to SAP.
    If I need to access SAP BI- Infoset variables inside Crystal Reports is it possible to do that. If no, then do I need to have the filter using the variable value instead of the fixed filter value?
    Please suggest.
    Thanks,
    Amogh.

    Hi Amogh,
    the InfoSet connectivity that Crystal Reports offers as a direct Infoset connectivity is towards the classic InfoSets from ERP.
    see here:
    /people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/02/07/businessobjects-and-sap-part-i
    /people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/03/23/businessobjects-and-sap-part-4
    In case you want to connect to an InfoSet in a BW system you would put a BW query on top of the InfoSet and then use the BW Query in Crystal Reports.

  • Issue with hierarchy node variable and multiple SAP hierarchies

    Hello experts,
    We are currently facing an issue when using two SAP hierarchies in Web Intelligence and one of them is restricted with a hierarchy node variable.
    The systems we use are a SAP BI 7.01 (SPS 05) and a Business Objects Enterprise XI R3.1 SP2 (fix pack 2.3). I want also to point out that the fix pack 2.3 has been applied to all BOE related components: the SAP integration Kit, client tools, and enterprise (server and client).
    The universe used in our scenario is based on a BEX Query with two hierarchies (non-time dependent hierarchies, intervals allowed) loaded on their corresponding characteristics. One of these characteristics is restricted with a hierarchy node variable (manual input, optional, ready for input, multiple single values allowed). 
    Prerequisites for replicating the problem:
    1)     When building the web intelligence query select several levels from both hierarchies (they have seven levels each) and    the   only amount of the InfoCube that the BEX query (that was used to create our universe) relies on.
    2)     In the hierarchy node variable prompt select a hierarchy node entry (not an actual InfoObject value that exists as transactional data in the InfoCube )
    By executing the query built above, all characteristics are returned null (no value) and the key figure with value u201C0u201D. No error messages, no partial results warnings.  Now if we go back to u201CEdit queryu201D and select levels of only one of any of the two hierarchies the query runs normally (by selecting the exact same value for the hierarchy node variable prompt).
    Any ideas on the matter?
    Regards,
    Giorgos

    Hi,
    Have you ever got a solution for this problem?
    I have a similar one.

  • How to create a Hierarchy Node Variable to be used in Infopackages ?

    Hello,
    I use BW 3.5.
    I need to create a hierarchy node variable (filter) to be used further in Infopackages as OLAP Variable.
    How can I do ?
    Please give a step-by-step answer,
    Thank you very much,
    Thomas

    Hi Again,
    You can use ABAP program in the process chain.
    I guess there are some OS level commands in ABAP which will allow you to open, close, read , write and move files.
    Serach in ABAP help or on net.
