Can't modify a query

Hello,
I'm working on BI 7.0.
I created a request in Bex with a structure which contains basics KPI, selection and formulas.
The request check is successful.
It is possible to run the request
It is also possible to add a caracteristic in the lines for example, but it is impossible to modify the structure elements (basic KPI, selections, formulas). All are in grey.
We tried to install the last Bex support package, but without success.
Had someone already solved this problem ?
Thanks
Thierry

Hi ,
Could be issue with Authorizations
Check for authorization object S_RS_COMP
Subobject RSZCOMPTP
Value STR Template structure
Also you can try -> change query - > right click on the structure -> Remove reference and then it should allow changes to happen.
Hope that helps.

Can we modify a query to add negative sign '-' in one field ?

Hi All,
I have created a query from SQVI by linking VBRK and VBRP. I know we cannot delete tables from the query but can we add a negative sign to all the quantities when the type is 'RE' in query ?
Thanks,

Hi Priya,
I can not modify the query in code as it asks for the access key.

Can i modify the query in discoverer

Hi
I am working on discoverer vierwer, is it possible to change the query and run the query myself. I can access the query but i can't make any changes.
The problem i am having is i want to show the sum of a variable but not show the count, is this possible ?
any help would be appreciated
thanks
nimesh

Hi Nimesh
Presumably the workbook you are referring to is not owned by you and has only been shared with you? In this case, while you can make changes to the query while it is in memory, providing you have the necessary privileges that is, you will not be able to save over the original. This is because only the owner can do this and you are not the owner.
What you can do though is to use Save As and save ourself a variant of the report. Of course this opens up another spoke in the wheel of reinvented queries, something that most organizations would like to avoid.
Therefore, perhaps the best option would be to contact the owner of the workbook and request that it be modified for your needs.
I hope this helps

Report conversion tool--Can we modify the query

Hi all,
I have some freehand SQL reports converted into WebI reports. I understand that report conversion tool, creates a new universe for each of the freehand SQL report. But if I try to edit the query, like add a filter condition, an error pops out.
Is it possible to edit the query if we convert freehand sql reports into webi reports?
Regards
Ash.

Hi,
Yes it is possible to edit the query for the converted free hand sql query.
If you see any problem while editing the SQL of the converted report, do a refresh once and try.
Adding query filter also works fine.
Issue from your end could also be due to security settings.i advise to revisit the security once and make sure all appropriate rights are available for the user.
Thanks,
Sri

How can i improve this query.

Hi guys i am beginner , just wanted to know some info , how can i improve this query ..
select *
from tableA A, viewB B,
where A.key = B.key
and a.criteria1 = '111'
and a.criteria2 = some_funtion(a.key)
one more thing should function should be on left side of equal sign.

will a join make it better or something else is needed more than that .If you are a beginner try to learn the ANSI Syntax. This will help you a lot to write better queries.
Your select would look like this in ANSI.
select *
from tableA A
JOIN viewB B ON A.key = B.key
WHERE a.criteria1 = '111'
and a.criteria2 = some_function(a.key);The good thing here is that this separates the typical joining part of the select from the typical filter criteria.
The other syntax very often let you forget one join. Just because there are so many tables and so many filters, that you just don't notice correctly anymore what was join and what not.
If you notice that the number of column is not what you expect, you can easiely modify the query and compare the results.
example A
Remove View B from the query (temporarily comment it out).
select *
from tableA A
--JOIN viewB B ON A.key = B.key
WHERE a.criteria1 = '111'
and a.criteria2 = some_funtion(a.key)
example B
You notice, that values from A are missing. Maybe because there is no matching key in ViewB? Then change the join to an outer join.
select *
from tableA A
LEFT OUTER JOIN viewB B ON A.key = B.key
WHERE a.criteria1 = '111'
and a.criteria2 = some_funtion(a.key)(The outer keyword is optional, left join would be enough).

Modify MDX query so it only shows specific dates?

I'm new to SSAS and SSRS reports (with datasource an SSAS cube), so please bear with me.
So I created a basic report that gets the data from my SSAS cube and displays it. That is working well. The problem is that the parameter displays the Dimension [Dim Date].[Date Key] so the dropdown displays every single day in the dimension table.
One of my datasets in the report is a hidden dataset called [DimDateDateKey]. This is the dataset used to display all the values in the datekey dropdown parameter. The MDX query looks like this:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [Dim Date].[Date Key].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION MEMBER
[Measures].[ParameterValue] AS [Dim Date].[Date Key].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME MEMBER
[Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Dim Date].[Date Key].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS ,
[Dim Date].[Date Key].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM [Sales cube]
My question is, how can I modify this query so that it only displays dates that are between today and 5 days ago? The column [Dim Date].[Date Key] is of type INT, so it would only display 20141012 and 20141017.
Currently, it displays every single [Dim Date].[Date Key] of the table, which is from 20000101 to 20201231.
Thanks.
VM

Hi VM,
you have to dynamically filter data based on current date. Current date you can get using VBA function now().
I enclose code adjusted code sample you pasted, but because I don't have same cube as you do, I wasn't able to execute it. Anyway it should work or at least you should see there that principle
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [Dim Date].[Date Key].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION MEMBER
[Measures].[ParameterValue] AS [Dim Date].[Date Key].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME MEMBER
[Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Dim Date].[Date Key].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS ,
[Dim Date].[Date Key].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM
(SELECT {StrToMember("[Dim Date].[Date Key].&[" + Year(now()) * 10000 + month(now()) *100 + day(now()) + "]"):
StrToMember("[Dim Date].[Date Key].&[" + Year(now()-5) * 10000 + month(now()-5) *100 + day(now()-5) + "]")}
ON COLUMNS FROM
[Sales cube]

Crystal Report XI: Can you write your query in SQL instead of using the GUI

Hello
In crystal report version XI, can you write your query in sqlplus and then use the crystal report designer to build your report instead of using the GUI . I would like to be able to go database and show sql query and open that query and make changes directly there, is that possible on this version, if yes is there a setting somewhere? Please let me know.
Thank you
alpha

Moved to Database forum.
No you can no longer modify the SQL directly. Use a Command Object to enter the SQL directly.
Thank you

How to modify search query based on new FE

Hi,
As per a requirement, in All Accounts search (advanced search section), I had to replace 5 checkboxes (e.g. Role1, Role2, Role3, Role4, Role5) by a single dropdown (codelist) name= "Account_Roles" containing same values (Role1, Role2, Role3, Role4, Role5). I created Customer's XBO and declared field of the codelist type, name= "Account_Roles". So, the XBO now has below 6 fields :
Role1, Role2, Role3, Role4, Role5 (type = Indicator)
Account_Roles (type = codelist)
Existing search on All Accounts worked on the 5 checboxes and fetched those accounts for which the values matched.
E.g.
If in search parameters, I check Role1 & Role2, and for Account1, these values are stored as "true", then Account1 will be shown in the result list.
Now the search UI doesn't have the checkboxes, but codelist ('Account_Roles') which can have value 'Role1'/'Role2'/'Role3'/'Role4'/'Role5' or combinations are also possible like 'Role1' OR 'Role2', etc..
My question here is -
Will the old search query that worked on indicator fields earlier, handle the new FE "Account_Roles" automatically ?
If not, then will modification be required to existing search query ?
If modification is required, what steps I need to follow to handle this new field instead of checkboxes.
I need exact steps to modify a search query, as I tried several things in the PDI but was not able to confirm if this requirement can be implemented by modifying search query or it is not feasible from PDI perspective.
Appreciate all your inputs.
Thanks,
Sachin.

Hi,
you can create a link between the vendor objects itself, means link 0vendor with 0ven_compc and 0ven_purorg. This should give you a list of all vendors multiplied with the comp codes multiplied with the purch. org. May be here it is possible to create another link between a attribute (eg. comp_code of 0ven_purorg with comp_code of 0ven_compc). In case it is not possible you need to add this link information somehow. Another option might be to create 2 queries. One on a infoset of 0vendor and 0ven_purorg and another one on 0vendor and 0ven_compc.

Adding existing field to a UI Search and Modifying UI Query

Hello.
I want to add the "central archiving flag" to the Contact search BP_CONT_SEARCH/Search. I've added the field into the SEARCH node via BSP_WD wizard but the field created does not appear as available in the Search because it is not into the context structure. ¿Is there any solution to this? ¿I must append a new field to the standard structure?
Although I get the "archiving flag" available I think I will need to modify the selection query ¿Is that possible? If it's possible ¿How can I do it?
I have another problem with a result field of another search for activities (BT126S_APPT/ApptSR). I would like to know how can I reach the selection ( based on BOL result model BTQRAct ) and how can I modify that selection/quety.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.

You can create a copy of the standard design layer, add your field and define it as dropdown listbox 0 coding is required
Otherwise you will need to code in the GET_V method and the GET_P, there's a lot of information about this if you have a little of patience to search
If fits your requirement (dropdown listbox) I would go for the design layer approach, of course there's info about this through scn too

How can I modify the logon screen on the portal

Hi,
We have designed some BI queries, when we open Query Designer and execute them (CTRL + R) an Internet Explorer open and ask us to log on this BI Portal.
On this Portal login screen, I can only provide my user name and password.
We would like the user to be able to select the language and to change is password.
How can we enable those changes ?
Thanks,

Although in iSQL*Plus 9.0.1 you can't modify the default
login HTML, you can create your own static HTML "login"
page. Just make sure the correct login credential
parameters are passed to the iSQL*Plus URL. Your users will
have to call your new static page instead of the default
iSQL*Plus login page.
Copy the HTML from the default login page and change the
FORM ACTION to include the host and port:
<FORM ACTION="http://host.port/isqlplus" METHOD="post">
and change the "Connection Identifier" field to a drop down
list of the connection identifiers you want:
<TD CLASS="label">Connection Identifier:</TD>
<TD>
<SELECT NAME="sid">
<OPTION SELECTED>SID1</OPTION>
<OPTION>SID2</OPTION>
<OPTION>SID3</OPTION>
</SELECT>
</TD>
Add your own logo, joke of the day, and put it in
production....
iSQL*Plus 9iR2 has an option for a drop down list of connect
identifiers to be configured in the default login screen.
This allows sys admins to restrict the DB servers that can
be accessed. No other connect identifiers can be used, even
from CONNECT commands in scripts.
On the OTN home page there seems to be an "early access"
link for down loading the 9i Database R2.

Can we duplicate standard query Search Master Agreements and Agreements.

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to hide Agreement Manager and Business Unit & Region result fields in standard Search Master Agreements and Agreements query.
I have duplicated this standard query and deleted Agreement Manager and Business Unit & Region result fields. Try to run this query but it is giving error.
Execution Type is Java.
Query Executor Class: com.sap.eso.contracts.query.SearchAllMAandAgreements
Error: SQL Exception: Fail to convert to internal representation, ANSI-92 SQL State: 99999, Vendor Error Code: 17059. Fail to convert to internal
representation.
Does anyone have idea about this functionality or how this standard query can be modified.
Thanks,
Lava

Hi Lava,
There is the Standard Query ODP-ESO-MasterAgreementList
Duplicate the query and remove the fields from the Result fields whcih you dont want. I think you will get the result required.

Few things i came across are
1. You could remove the query where you do COUNT() just to check if data exist before SELECT..INTO. You can use EXCEPTION handling insted.
2. The condition V_ResponseType = 2 adn V_ResponseType = 5 looks same so you can combine it into a single condition.
I have modified it like this.
if (v_billingtypeid = 2) then
        begin
              select pa.responsetype
                   , pa.payerapprovedamount
                into v_responsetype
                   , v_approvedamt

               where pa.patientidentificationno = iv_patientidentifierno
                 and pa.registrationno = iv_uhid;
              if v_responsetype = 3 then
                  v_servicetariff := v_servicetariff - (v_servicetariff * (v_approvedamt / 100));
              end if;

Can i change BI Query before loading it to BO using some if than else logic

Hi guys
In my requirement I have a BI query which the users want to run in BO now. Now the requirement is that they want to change some values in the BI query after the BI query has run based on some u201Cif than else logicu201D for each row.
So my question is can BO modify a BI query. Is there some place I can write an abap routine between the BI query and the BO Report.
Thanks

Hi Adnan, in CR you can create Formula Fields, and you can include IF THEN ELSE statements there. This won´t modify the BI query, but´ll modify the results you see in CR (I believe this is what you want)
Here, you have information about formula fields, CR 2008 User Guide in chapter 22
You can do, something like this:
IF {Tabla.Campo}=1
THEN "AAA"
ELSE "BBB"
Hope this helps,
Liliana
