Can't find 0FYTLFP OLAP Variable in InfoPackage Data Selection tab on 3.5

On BW 3.5, when generating an InfoPackage with the datasource as Purchasing Data(80PUR_C01), under Data Selection tab, for the InfoObject 0FISCPER, I selected 7 (OLAP variables)for the Type column, then click the button next to it and under the column of Details for Type to bring up a window, but when expending the OLAP Variable field list, can't find the following value in the list which shows up on BW 3.1:
0FYTLFP     0FISCPER Cumulated to Last Fiscal Year/Period (SAP Exit)
How to make the above value show up in the OLAP Variable list?   I thought maybe the variable 0FYTLFP needs to be installed in Business Contents, but there is no variable object type in Business Content.  It sounds like a SAP Exit, but how to make the SAP Exit value show up on BW 3.5?
Thanks for everyone's input!

hey Rohit,
Besides the three variable values in the list on BW 3.5, now I find a new one in the list, called "0E_ROLE     0SR_ROLE     Role (SAP Exit)", I have no idea why this one shows up now.  Now all the four variables in the list are:
1. 0CML12LM     0CALMONTH     Last 12 Months Excluding the Current Month
2. 0CMONTH     0CALMONTH     Current Calendar Month
3. 0E_ROLE     0SR_ROLE     Role (SAP Exit)
4. 0S_RQMRC     0REQUID     Most Current Data
0FYTLFP is still not in the list!   We can't try to create BEx query since our BW 3.5 system is just installed and we have not got to the step to ceate a query.  I try the 2nd way you suggested by pressing F6 on this variable with the typed in value 0FYTLFP, get the following msg "BEx variable 0FYTLFP could not be evaluated - No error message", that means it would not work on BEx query as well, right? 
What could be the reason that we can't see 0FYTLFP variable in our new installed BW 3.5?  Do you think our BASIS missed installing sth?
Thanks

  • How to debug a ABAP Routine which is in Infopackage Data selection Tab

    Hi ,
       Please let me know How to debug a ABAP Routine which is in Infopackage Data selection Tab.

    Hi,
    You can try to create infinite loop:
    DATA: STOP.
    WHILE STOP IS INITIAL. ENDWHILE.
    Start InfoPackage and then go to SM50 and swich on debugging for your process. Then in debugger you can change value of STOP variable to skip the loop.

  • Routine in Infopackage Data selection Tab

    HI,
    I am having one InfoObject (marital staus) in InfoPackage Data selection Tab.
    Now I want to write a ABAP routine for that infoObject in Infopackage to select only those records of  marital status = ‘SINGLE’.
        I am new to ABAP . please let me know what code should I write in this routine.

    Hi Kris,
    You would do it like this:
    data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
              read table l_t_range with key
                   fieldname = 'MARITAL_STATUS'.
              l_idx = sy-tabix.
              move: 'I'      to l_t_range-sign,
                    'EQ'     to l_t_range-option,
                    'SINGLE' to l_t_range-low.
              modify l_t_range index l_idx.

  • How to debug an OLAP variant which is in Infopackage Data selection Tab

    Hi experts,
    How can I debug an OLAP variant used in the data selection tab for an infopackage? The loading is done via process chains. I am trying to debug the SAP delivered OLAP variant 0P_PPER3 of infoobject 0FISCPER3 (SAP exit). If I am not mistaken I believe the function module is RSVAREXIT_0P_PPER3. Thanks.

    Hi Mark !
    This method is always good (if you have authorization to work in SM50):
    put before your code an endless loop like this one:
    data flag type c.
    clear flag.
    do.
    if flag = ' '.
    exit.
    endif.
    enddo.
    then start your load...go to SM50 and here you will see your process looping on the same pgm...highlight the process and access into it in debug mode from the menu...
    here you can change flag in 'X', exit from the loop and continue all the process in debug !!!
    Hope it helps!
    Bye,
    Roberto
    ...and please don't forget to reward the answers...it's THE way to say thanks here !

  • Infopackage-Data Selection Tab Values Get Populated Automatically.

    Hi All,
    In infopackage dataselection tab currently we are entering manually values for 0version info object and process has to be done for 4 differenct infopackagewe are getting a ticket for doing this process for every month.So 0version values would not be unique values ,all the values are different,for instancec10,c99,c11.
    user community felt that this one is a time consuming take they want to customize it and they want to enter the value on their own thorug some custom sap screen.
    we cannot give access to the user for the infopackage selection and all .we have figured out like we have to create a custom t code and give acces to the user for that t code alone.
    If the user enter the 0version value in the front end of it should get reflected in  infopackage dataselection tab.
    It would be really grateful if u have shared ur thought on the same.
    Regards,
    Sakthivel S

    Hi,
    You could use the TVARVC table instead of creating a Z-control table, and allow the users to enter the data into TVARVC via the tcode you are creating.
    So for instance the table entries could be as follows.
    NAME
    SIGN
    OPT
    LOW
    HIGH
    IP_1
    I
    EQ
    V1
    IP_2
    I
    BT
    V3
    V4
    IP_3
    I
    EQ
    V9
    Now, in the first InfoPackage, write the ABAP routine to read the data from TVARVC where the NAME = IP_1. Based on the results the InfoPackage restrictions will be populated by the routine. 
    In the second InfoPackage you read based on NAME = IP_2. And so on. Rest of the routine code is same as in the first InfoPackage.
    This way you can be assured that the different IPAKs will not have overlapping criteria as long as the table entries are correctly maintained.

    Hello Ozan,  
    Please check the datasource in RSA3 and make sure that its working for the same selection.
    Is there any routine in your infopackage and what is your source system?

    Thanks in Advance

    hi James
    this field is to used to populate date range field dynamically
    suppose u r loading any particular infopackage weekly for previous weeks data (monthly or daily) then u can use option 1 (2 or 0).
    but if u want u r own logic to populate this range in data selection tab for loading then u have to write routine in ABAP in option 6.

  • Creation of OLAP Variable for Master data

    Dear BW Experts,
    How to Create OLAP Variable for Master data  in SAP BW? What is the use of OLAP Variable?

    The entry column Type (Variable) on the Select Data tabpage indicates a variable time frame in which the data should be requested. The variables are not replaced by concrete values until a request is made. There are eight options:
    Variable            Data request        Description
    0
                          Yesterday
                                            (12am – 12am)
    1
                         Last week
                                            (Monday-Sunday)
    2
                           Last month
                                            (1. (First day - last day of previous month)
    3
                           Last quarter
                                           (1. (First day - last day of previous quarter)
    4
                           Last year
                                          (01. (January 1 – Dec 31 of previous year)
    5
                      User time selection
                                               See below
    6
                       ABAP routines
                                               See below
    7
                         <b>OLAP variables</b>
                                                See below
    <b>Time selections with the help of the variables 0 to 4.</b>
    The variables 0-4 only refer to date fields of the data type DATS.
    <b>User time selection</b>
    Type 5 gives you a free selection of all fields.
    If you select this variable for a field, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type, an additional dialog box appears. In this dialog box you can freely limit the values of the fields and determine the next period value and the number of periods until a repetition.
    Variables are placeholders for values and are not replaced by concrete values until a data request is made. You can also use a Variable for selections when requesting data for an InfoObject, if you choose type 7, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type.

  • Special Characters in InfoPackage Data Selection

    Hi Experts,
    Is it possible to include special key such as * in the data selection tab in the infoPackage? e.g. *AB
    I have created a custom DataSource to extract all work order with costs data.
    However we only need work order data with revision number that finishes with 'AB' for reporting. (if I do not apply this selection, extracted data will be too big).
    i.e.
        REVNR
        00000012AB --> to be included in extraction
        00000231AB --> to be included in extraction
        00012322AB --> to be included in extraction
        Y07WK06    --> excludes this record
        00000007AB --> to be included in extraction
    Can this be achieve by using '*AB' in the data selection screen?
    Currently, SELOPTS of custom DataSource is been set to '0'. (where can I change this SELOPTS value to something else?)
    If special key is not allowed in the data selection screen, can you suggest any alternative solution?
    Kind regards,
    Steve

    Hi steven,
       Yes you can do this one at info package level by selecting the ABAP Coding at Type (variable change for selective values) at selection tab of info package.
      Here you need write ABAP coding according to your business requirements….
      or
      You can drop unnecessary data at update routine.

  • Data Selection tab in infopackage

    Hi Gurus
    Its a very basic question but can anybody tell me what function the "data selection " Tab does in infopackage?
    I know the setting required on R3 side for that but not sure why we use the data selection.
    Can we use this data selection for master data as well?

    Hi Kris,
    Data Selection tab allows you to select: date ranges, document numbers and the like.
    In order to have filds in there, you should first select in the DataSource in the R/3 side wich field could be selected.
    If it is a Generic DataSource, you can do it running RSO2 transaction code.
