Cal. Year/Quarter Values in Text

Hi All,
I have a report which displays Net Sales in Yearly Quarters wise
Ex: 20131     20132     20133     20134
Query has included Cal. Year/Quarter infoobject, I've done setting to display as 'Text'  for Cal. Year/Quarter object properties in Bex.
But I'm expecting the report results as
Ex: 2013 Q1     2013 Q2      2013 Q3      2013 Q4.
Could you please suggest me what are the settings I'm missing.
Regards
Sunil  

Hi Anshu n Phani,
I was posted this discussion by checking "Mark this discussion as Question" check box. So it was posted as question. When I got the correct answer (immediate reply) I've checked that reply as 'Correct Answer' and after that I've posted some of my observations regarding my question.
Checking 'Correct Answer' will populate the question status as "this question has been Answered' and  'Useful Answer' will make the thread as not answered, but if the Author of the question make it as "Assumed Answer', then question status got 'This question is Assumed Answer'. And thread get closed. This is the only way I know to give the proper status of a question in SCN.
Phani Could you please explain, is there any other way to close the thread ?
As Anshu mentioned, it's been changed as Discussion (I donn know how it happened) , I'm unable to mark it as Correct and Useful, so mentioned in my reply as "Thread is Closing'.
Thanks

    Hi Raghu,
    I followed the procedure you outlined
    1. click on the key figure selection, where your are restricting the key figure with the customer exit variable.
    2. Now you have "change selection" popup window.
    3. In the description you have your key figure name. remove the description and write YTD &text_var_name&
    4.keep you cursor on &text_var_name& and select &text_var_name& and then,
    Beside "description" you will be able to see a variable ikon. click on that, from the contex menu of the variable ikon, choose the "change variable" option.
    5.you will now see a 'change variable'' popup window.
    6. give technical name text_var_name. description any thing.
    7.in global settings, give type of variable "text"
    8. processing type is "replacement path "
    9.Reference char is "calmonth"
    10. in the replacement path tab, in replacement rule, replace variable with "infoobject"
    replace with - "external charecteristic value key"
    11. use interval - select "from value" radio button.
    12. give 4 for offset length.
    13. save & ok.
    But the end result i am expecting 2009 but the result i am getting 2009.05
    But my requirment is to get 2009
    Please advise me on how to proceed

  • "non assigned" value for Calender year quarter not possible

    All of us know that we can not assign "#" value to calender year quarter.
    In my planning level (which is a part of multi planning area consinsting 2 cubes, Actual COPA cube and Plan COPA cube), I want to copy data from Actual copa cube to plan copa cube using planning function of formula type, but actual copa cube is not getting populated against calyear quarter.
    I want to retain calyearquarter as a characteristic in my level as it is acting as a key to  my plan data. What shoould be done in such a scenario?

    santoshkumar,
    I would suggest you build a characateristic relationship exit on calendar year quarter, probably based on fiscal year period or 0calmonth..  Make sure you leave Calendar year quarter out of your planning level in the copy so it would derive it.
    Hope this helps,
    Mary.

  • Cal year / Month is not populating correctly in Bex report

    Hi Experts,
    We have a bex query on virtual provider with only one column in it i.e 'cal year / month'. I'm having the problem with this column.
    In the excel output of this report the cal year /month is displaying in this sequence.
    01/0000     02/0000     03/0000     04/0000     05/0000     06/0000     07/0000     08/0000     09/0000     08/2008     09/2008     10/2008     11/2008     12/2008     01/2009     02/2009     03/2009     04/2009     05/2009     03/2010     04/2010     05/2010     06/2010     07/2010     08/2010     09/2010     10/2010     11/2010     12/2010     01/2011     02/2011     03/2011     04/2011     05/2011     06/2011     07/2011     08/2011     09/2011     10/2011     11/2011     12/2011     01/2012     02/2012     03/2012     04/2012     05/2012     06/2012     07/2012     08/2012
    I'm not getting why the first 9 columns its displaying as 01/0000     02/0000     03/0000     04/0000     05/0000     06/0000     07/0000     08/0000     09/0000     .
    It should display as
    08/2008     09/2008     10/2008     11/2008     12/2008     01/2009     02/2009     03/2009     04/2009     05/2009
    06/2009        07/2009        08/2009         09/2009         10/2009        11/2009        12/2009        01/2010         02/2010         03/2010     04/2010     05/2010     06/2010     07/2010     08/2010     09/2010     10/2010     11/2010     12/2010     01/2011     02/2011     03/2011     04/2011     05/2011     06/2011     07/2011     08/2011     09/2011     10/2011     11/2011     12/2011     01/2012     02/2012     03/2012     04/2012     05/2012     06/2012     07/2012     08/2012
    My data source is fetching the correct data including this cal year/ month.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    Brahma Reddy

    It seems there are some records of "cal year/month" with value 01/0000 02/0000 03/0000 04/0000 05/0000 06/0000 07/0000 08/0000 09/0000
    2 possible solution:
    1) Check the data again, you may simply filter them by restrict the cal year/month to the specific value (01/0000)
    2) restrict the cal year/month, only allow 2008/8 + value in the result.

    Hi,
    Perhaps the best way is a self-join, where you act like one table (c in the example) containes the current year's data, and another table (p) contains the previous year's data, if any.
    SELECT       c.year
    ,       c.qrt
    ,       c.qty
    ,       p.year
    ,       p.qty
    FROM          table_x     c
    LEFT OUTER JOIN     table_x     p     ON     p.year     = c.year - 1
                                AND     p.qrt     = c.qrt
    ORDER BY  c.year
    ,            q.qrt
    ;

  • Offset issue for Fiscal Year Quarter

    Dear All,
    There is a requirement to develop a report for balance sheet to compare the fiscal year quarter like if user is going to give input 20143 then comparison quarter is 20142 where I did offset (-1) and if user give input as 20141 then the comparison quarter is 20134 where I am using offset as (-7).
    So I have incorporated both offset in one variable. Now the issue is if I will run for any quarter then it is giving error in the run time. Could anyone suggest that how I could achieve this, whether I have used correct offset interval?

    Hi,
    I wouldn't do it in that way i.e. one column where you count previous quarter for quarters 2 3 4 (offset -1) and another column for counting previous quarter for quarter 1 (offset 7).
    There should be just one column where you count just previous quarter. Use an EXIT to count previous quarter for any value of quarter.
    Regards, Leszek
    something like this can be used:
    WHEN 'ZPREVQUARTER'.
    * QUARTER(1) TYPE C.
    * YEAR(4) TYPE C.
    * have to be defined after DATA: keyword !!!
       IF i_step = 2.
             LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO l_s_var_range
               WHERE vnam = 'ZCURRENTQUARTER'.
               EXIT.
             ENDLOOP.
             CLEAR: l_s_range.
             YEAR = l_s_var_range-low(4).
             QUARTER = l_s_var_range-low+4(1).
             IF QUARTER = 1.
              YEAR = YEAR - 1.
              QUARTER = '4'.
             ELSE.
              QUARTER = QUARTER - 1.
             ENDIF.
             CONCATENATE YEAR QUARTER INTO l_s_range-low.

  • Customer Exit  for Calendar year/Quarter

    Hi Experts,
    I had a scenario as I had a Time char 0Calquarter.  Based on this I need to derive the current quarter headcount and Pervious year same quarter headcount.  To get the headcount I defined a counter constant '1' for each employee at cube level.
    In a Query
    a)  Assign a system date to 0Calquarter variable in query.
    b) If the variable is blank till current quarter the headcount need to display and same as previous quarter headcount.
    c) If the user enters any value (say 20083) tht quarter current headcount and pervious year quarter(20073) headcount.
    For the above scenarios I need to write customer exit. 
    Thanks,

    Hi Shanthi,
    Thanks for u r reply.
    Headcount is defined as 'constant'.  when Z_COUNT Keyfigure is dran & droped in rows it'll cumulate and display the current headcount.
    hope u understand the headcount.
    I require the cmod logic.
    Thanks

  • How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms?

    Hello all,
    How does APEX check for null values in Text Fields on the forms? This might sound trivial but I have a problem with a PL/SQL Validation that I have written.
    I have one select list (P108_CLUSTER_ID) and one Text field (P108_PRIVATE_IP). I made P108_CLUSTER_ID to return null value when nothing is selected and assumed P108_PRIVATE_IP to return null value too when nothign is entered in the text field.
    All that I need is to validate if P108_PRIVATE_IP is entered when a P108_CLUSTER_ID is selected. i.e it is mandatory to enter Private IP when a cluster is seelcted and following is my Pl/SQL code
    Declare
    v_valid boolean;
    Begin
    IF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
    v_valid := TRUE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
    v_valid := TRUE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NOT NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NULL THEN
    v_valid := FALSE;
    ELSIF :P108_CLUSTER_ID is NULL and :P108_PRIVATE_IP is NOT NULL THEN
    v_valid := FALSE;
    END IF;
    return v_valid;
    END;
    My problem is it is returning FALSE for all the cases.It works fine in SQL Command though..When I tried to Debug and use Firebug, I found that Text fields are not stored a null by default but as empty strings "" . Now I tried modifying my PL/SQL to check Private_IP against an empty string. But doesn't help. Can someone please tell me how I need to proceed.
    Thanks

    See SQL report for LIKE SEARCH I have just explained how Select list return value works..
    Cheers,

  • Smartview 11.1.2.5- Cannot change value in Text-List Dropdowns- Excel Crashes

    Using latest/greatest Smartview with 64-bit Office and Windows 7.  I have a native essbase app utilizing text-lists. I am trying to update text-value through smartview. Smartview automatically produces a drop down to select a value from the linked text-list. However- as soon as a different value is entered or selcted in this cell with the drop-down list- Excel crashs. I have reproduced this consistently everytime. I have no way to change values for text-measure accounts linked to text-lists. I feel this is and incompatabiliyt issue with office 64-bit.  

    SmartView using the forms. It appears this issue has been logged as issue number 6566082 as seen here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/readme/sv_1112200_readme.html

  • Assigning a Value to Text

    Okay so I am new to numbers and still trying to figure out a few things. My problem is I am trying to assign a value to text. It's nothing complicated I'm just trying to create a work schedule and I want a value of 1 (indicating 1 hour) assigned to each cell that has text in it.
    For instance John Doe is working in the office from 8-1. Each column has a heading that indicates that hour and each row is assigned to one employee. I'd like to highlight from 8-1 for John and insert the text "Office" in each cell and have it calculated at the end as 5 hours (1 for each cell that has the text office).
    Thanks for the help!
    Amsel

    As far as I know, the spreadsheet doen't behave this way.
    Highlighting a cell or a range of cells is not sufficient to trigger a function.
    In column D the formula is:
    =IF(C=TRUE,"Office","")
    in the footer cell of column D the formula is:
    =COUNTIF(D,"Office")

  • Field "Value field texts" is disabled to enter new values

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to enter new values on the field "Value field texts" from Depreciation Area, in Config Asset Value Display(Financial Accounting (New) > Asset Accounting > Information System > Configure Asset Value Display). The fields are disbled to enter new text values.
    I don't know what's happening. I've see the SAP Note 121433, but I don't intend to request the creation of a program to fill these fields. Does anyone know if there's another way to deal with this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Srinivasa,
    Thanks for reply. I've checked the transaction ANSICHT following the steps said and the Master Data fields are with "No authorization" for all Depreciation areas.
    Do you know if there's another way of enable these fields? We cannot change the Authorization settings from one Depreciation Area to another.
    Thanks a lot.

  • Issue passing values to text symbols in Dynamic text PDF forms

    Hello Everyone,
    I am facing a problem related to Dynamic texts in Adobe PDF forms (Text node of type include text). I am able to pass the dynamic values to the Text node properties but i am not able to pass the values to Text symbols inside the Text node. When tested it says the field not found. I have the same structure and field in the CONTEXT as that of the text symbol. The problem i see is because in PDF the field names have $record.(fieldname) ?
    Please share your thoughts if anyone has faced similar problem or know how to handle it.
    Thanks a million in advance,
    Chandu

    Open the report up in the Designer and Click on Edit, Subreport Links. Likely what you can do is use Shared Variables to pass values from the main report to the subreport.
    You need to do this in the report first. If you are using RAS then you can at runtime. If RAS is not available to you then no way in code.
    See these samples:
