BW3.5 - Query Cache - InfoObject decimal formatting

Hello all,
I built a bw query, which displays key figures. Each key figure uses the decimal place formatting from the key figure infoobject (In Query Designer, the properties for each keyfigure for Decimal places, is set to "[From Key Figure 0.00]").
I decided to change the InfoObject key figure to have 0 decimals places (in BEx formatting tab for the Key Figure). Now, when I open up query designer, and look at the properties for the Key figure, it still is set to "[From Key Figure 0.00]" (it should be "[From Key Figure 0]" to reflect the Key Figure Infoobject change.
I tried to generate the report using RSRT, and deleting the query cache, but it still shows up with two decimal places. Has anyone encountered this problem before? I am trying to avoid removing the Key Figure infoobject from the query and readding it to reflect the change.
Thanks!

Hello Brendon
You have changed the KF infoObject to show only 0 decimal( no decimal)..that is okay but in query KF property you have selected with 2 decimal so data will be displayiing in 2 decimal...the query setting is local and have priority over KF InfoObject settings...
If you notice in KF property in query u will have one option from the field somethjing which means whatever is defined by KF infoObject...just select that now onwards u will get only those many decimal which u have defined in KF InfoObject
Thanks

Decimal format time value to convert into time (hr:min:sec)value in a graph

I need to develop a graph in WAD, in BW7. In the graph the value must be showed as HR:MIN:SEC, which I cannot get it right.
The keyfigure value carries the duration(hr:min:sec) in decimal format. In the query, I use this keyfigure for calculation. To get the time broadcasted for a week range. I get the total duration (say 507835.000). Now I need to convert this value back to hr:min:sec. I use the below formulas to get the hr, min, sec.
D = 507835
Val1 = D/3600
Val2 = Frac(val1)
Val3 = Val2 * 60
Val4 = frac(Val3) * 60
Hr = Val1 Val2
Min = Val3 frac(Val3)
Sec = Val4
In another formula in the query I add Hr + Min/100 + Sec/10000 to get hr.minsec format.
When I do an average on count of weeks, this doesnt round off correctly.
I tried to also use the Data function TIME() which when the time is > 24 hrs changes the value.
Lets say if it is 39:00:00, it shows value as 15:00:00 instead of keeping the value 39:00:00.
When I used this value in the graph it did not show the HR:MIN:SEC values in the value axis instead it showed 0.0, 0.1,.1.0. Bcoz of this the graph is blank.
Can anybody help me to resolve this problem.
Thanks alot
Anima

I checked SU01 and didn't see anything there to customize...
In my workstation, control panel / regional and languages settings / tab regional Options / customize; my time format is HH:mm:ss; the HH has to be in capital letter to display the time in 24 hour...
but this is strange anyway... are you reporting with web frontend or excel?

When is query cache deleted?

Hello All,
I searched this forum and SAP for notes but couldn't find exactly when query cache is deleted.
For example, we know when new data is loaded to an infocube, but what about when new master data is loaded? If a query still has the existing transaction data loaded, but new master data is loaded (and a query output is reading and attribute), should it NOT read cache?
What are the hard and fast rules?
Thank you so much!

Queries check to see if new data has been loaded to a cube/DSO since teh data has been cached. If new data has been loaded, the old cached data for that query is deleted and the new execution of the query will read the data from the database. A new master data load would not effect the last load date on a cube/DSO, so it would not cause the the cache to be deleted for a quary on the cube/ODS. If you had set the Master Data InfoObject to be an InfoProvider and had just a master data query (no cube/ODS), the cached master data query results should get deleted.
As a matter of practice, Master Data should be loaded before loads to the cubes/ODS are done.
As mentioned you can delete OLAP cache from tran RSRCACHE. There is also a batch program you can run to delete entries from OLAP cache. You can specify specific query results to be deleted, and you can also use it to delete all cached results that are older than a specifiied number of days.

Key figure Date in Decimal format

Hi all,
   I have a key figure 0CPR_ACFR_K (Date) which is in Decimal format.
   Data in PSA for the particular field was like this '07102008'
   but after that it is changing to 7327.98 that is in decimal format.
   But i dont want this to happen ie. it should not get converted to Decimal or
   i want to convert the decimal value again to the equivalent date.
   pls help in this.

Hi jean liker,
It will get converted due to its properties. If you want to use this particular object as keyfigure, you can create a variable with processing type replacement path and use. Its better to maintain as char.
[Replacement Path: Replacement with a Characteristic Value|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/03/6ba03cc24efd1de10000000a114084/frameset.htm]

SAP BW 3.5 Query Cache - no data for queries

Dear experts,
we do have a problem with the SAP BW Query Cache (BW 3.5). Sometimes the
problem arise that after the queries have been pre-calculated using web templates there are no figures available when running a web-report, or when doing a drilldown or filter navigation. A solution to solve that issue is to delete the cache for that query, however this solution is not reasonable or passable. The problem occurs non-reproducible for different queries.
Is this a "normal" error of the SAP BW we have to live with, or are there any solutions for it? Any hints are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance & kind regards,
daniel

HI Daniel
Try to wirk without cache for those queries.
Anyway, you should check how the cache option is configured for those queries .
You can see that, in RSRV tx
Hope this help

Convert a String to Decimal Format in European format

Hi Experts,
I am having a string as a context type for a input field, where the user can enter the Price, I need to convert the same into European format "###.###,00", I am using this below code to convert the string to decimal format
User will enter the input as 10 as it needs to be converted into 10,00. Also, 1000 which has to be converted as 1.000,00
String Str1 = wdContext.currentvn_temptable.getVa_TempUnitPrice();
Locale mylocale = Locale.GERMAN;
String pattern="###.###,00";
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(mylocale);
DecimalFormat df = (DecimalFormat)nf;
df.applyPattern(pattern);
String output = df.format(Str1);
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("Unit Price" + " " + pattern + " " + output);
When I execute the above code, i am getting an error called "Malformed Pattern ###.###,00"
Please let me know, how to convert a String to Quantity in European format
Thanks & Regards,
Palani

Hello!
Try to change your pattern to this one
Locale mylocale = Locale.GERMAN;
String pattern = "#,#00.00";
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(mylocale);
DecimalFormat df = (DecimalFormat)nf;
df.applyPattern(pattern);
String output = df.format(1111111.222);
Pattern has an influence on number of digits between separators, but you have to use ',' for grouping and '.' for decimal. Character values for separators correspond to your Locale object.
Thanks, Mikhail

Issues with Query Caching in MII

Hi All,
I am facing a strange problem with Query caching in MII query. Have created one xacute query and set cache duration 30 sec. The associated BLS with the query retrieves data from SAP system. In the web page this value is populated by executing an iCommand. Followings are the steps I followed -
Query executed for first time, it retrives data from SAP correctly. Lets say value is val1
At 10th sec Value in SAP changed to val2 from val1.
Query excuted at 15th sec, it gives value as val1. Which is expected as it gives from cache.
Query is executed 1t 35th sec, it gives value as val2 retriving from SAP system. Which is correct.
Query executed at 40th sec, it gives value as val1 from cache. Which is not expected.
I have tried with java cache clear in browser and JCo cache of the server.
Same problem I have seen for tag query also..
MII Version - 12.0.6 Build(12)
Any thoughts on this.
Thanks,
Soumen

Soumen Mondal,
If you are facing this problem from the same client PC and in the same session, it's very strange.. but if there are two sessions running on the same PC this kind of issue may come..
Something about caching:
To decide whether to cache a query or not, consider the number of times you intend to run the query in a minute. For data changing in seconds, and queried in minutes, I would recommend not to cache query at all.
I may give a typical example for query caching in a query on material master cached for 24 hours, where we know that after creating material master, we are not creating a PO on the same day.
BR,
SB

Decimal Format and Scientific Notation

I am trying to print numbers in scientific notation using the Decimal Format class. What follows is a simple test program I wrote to find the bug. So far, I have not found a solution.
import java.text.*;
public class formatted {
public static void main (String Arguments[]) {
DecimalFormat form = new DecimalFormat("0.###E0");
double numb = 123456.789;
System.out.println("Nuber is: " +
form.format(numb));
The output of this program is... Nuber is: 123456E
The output is the same if numb is an int, float, or double. If I format the number as "#####.0" or "#####.00" the output is correct. I think that I am following the rules for formatting a number in scientific notation as the process is outlined in the documentation (provided below).
***** From Decimal Format under Scientific Notation ***
Numbers in scientific notation are expressed as the product of a mantissa and a power of ten, for
example, 1234 can be expressed as 1.234 x 10^3. The mantissa is often in the range 1.0 <= x < 10.0,
but it need not be. DecimalFormat can be instructed to format and parse scientific notation only via a
pattern; there is currently no factory method that creates a scientific notation format. In a pattern,
the exponent character immediately followed by one or more digit characters indicates scientific
notation. Example: "0.###E0" formats the number 1234 as "1.234E3".
Anyone understand how the short program is incorrectly written?
Marc

The problem is
format = "0.###E0"
input number = 123456.789
output = 123456E (not scientific notation!)
This is not scientific notation at all. There is no decimal point given and no value in the exponent.
I understand entirely that by adding more #'es will provide more precision. The bug I have is the output is not printed in the scientific format; other formats work.

Decimal format to 2 decimal places ????

Hello Everyone,
I have created a web dynpro application which to display a report depending on the data given by the BAPI. But there is some issue with the numeric data returned by the BAPI.
For ex - if the BAPI returns 5.00 the value is displayed in the report as 5.
I want uniform decimal values till 2 decimal places. For example 5 shd come as 5.00, 2.1 shd come as 2.10 etc.
I searched SDN abt this, and found many threads relating to this.
I tried using decimal format, creating a simple dictinary type, but using all this what happens is the value basically changes to a string format, this implies that the value is displayed in the table as "left-aligned".
Where- as we need the decimal numeric values to be right-aligned.
Any thoughts how to achieve this.
Please correct me if I have missed out on anything.
Thanks,
Samta

Hi,
From wat i understood.. u have a attribute coming from BAPI.. which you want to display with two decimal places,,
In this case.. assuming it is coming with 2 decimal places from the backend.. create a value node.. inside the node which contains the output data. set its carinality to 1..1 .. create a value attribute of type big decimal in it.. or probably string.. if there is an issue in displaying BigDecimal directly..
map this new attribute to the necessary column in the table..
BigDecimal value = new BigDecimal("the actual value in string or long").setScale(2);
assign this to the value attribute created..
(If alignment is the problem.. set the column 's textview property halign to right.. and layout as block or paragraph.. )

Named query cache not hit

Hi,
I'm using Toplink ORM 10.1.3.
I have a table called STORE_CONFIG which has a primary key called KEYWORD (a VARCHAR2). The POJO mapped to this table is called StoreConfig.
In the JDeveloper (10.1.3.1.0) mapping workbench I've defined a named query to query by the PK called "getConfigPropertyByKeyword". The type of the named query is ReadObjectQuery.
SELECT keyword, key_value
FROM STORE_CONFIG
WHERE (keyword = #key)
Under the options tab I have the following settings:
Cache Statement: true
Bind Parameters: true
Cache Usage: Check Cache by Primary Key
The application logs show that the same database queries are executed multiple times for the same PK (keyword)! Why is that? Shouldn't it be checking the Object Cache rather than going to the DB?
I've tried it with "Cache Statement: false" and "Bind Parameters: false" with the same problem.
If I click the Advanced tab and check "Cache Query Results" then the database is not hit twice for the same record. However it was my understanding that since I am querying by PK that I wouldn't need to set "Cache Query Results".
Doesn't "Cache Query Results" apply to the Query Cache and not the Object Cache?

Your issue seems to be that you are using custom SQL for the query, not a TopLink expression. When you use an Expression query TopLink's know if the query is by primary key and can get a cache hit.
When you use custom SQL, TopLink does not know that the SQL is by primary key, so does not get a cache hit.
You could either use an Expression for the query,
or when using custom SQL you should be able to name your query argument the same as your database field defined as the primary key in your descriptor (case sensitive).
i.e.
SELECT keyword, key_value
FROM STORE_CONFIG
WHERE (keyword = #KEYWORD)

Problem in continuous query cache with PofExtractor
