Change comma and period in key figure presentation in BEx WAD reports

Hi gurus
We run our BEx WAD reports in the SAP portal. By default the thousands separator is period and the decimal separator is comma. How can I change this so the period becomes the decimal separator and the comma becomes the thousands separator?
Kind regards
Erik

Hi Erik,
you can change this by setting at user parameters.
At system, at any screen (RSA1) -> menu SYSTEM- > USER PROFILE -> OWN DATA -> Defaults Tab, here you can change.
and Save.
these will reflect in WAD report output.
Best Regards.

Cumulative key figure and non cumulative key figure

Hi BW Expertz
Could any one give me the clarification about cumulative and non cumulative key figures .Why we go for cumulative key figure and non cumulative key figure.If any docs could u just mail to the following [email protected]
Thanx In advance
Best regards

Cumulative values are those key figures (KF) that are cumulated using all characteristics, thus also using time.
Ex: Sales revenue, Quantity....
Non-cumulative values are those key figures that are measured in relation to a period in time; they cannot be meaningfully cumulated over time. Non-cumulative values are summarized over time using so called exception aggregation.
Ex: Number of employees, Inventory, Stock prices, Account balance,.....
AGGREGATION TAB
Non cumulatives are evaluated by non-cummulative values. Non-cummulative values are special key figures that are different from other key figures (cummulative values) in data transfers and saving as well as in aggregational behaviour. These are measured in relation to a period in time; that is to say, they cannot be meaningfully cumulated over time. Non-cumulative value are summaraized over-time using exception aggregation.
Non-cumulative values such as 'number of employess' are cumulated using characteristics such as 'cost center'. It does not make any sense, however, to cumulate the number of employees using different periods. The result at the end of any particular period would be the sum total of number of employees for each posting during the period. This would of course be wrong.
Instead, the aggregation of the KF can be defined as exception aggregation wherein an additional references characteristics is utilized to tell BW which value to use during the period, in this case, 0CALMONTH is used, in the above example, to indicate that only the last value of 0HEADCOUNT, updated by costcenter, is to be taken for any calender year and month.
Cummulative vs Non-Cumulatives
The purpose of non-cumulatives is to optimize the data transfer in BW, the data retention and the database access. The data transfer from OLTP to BW is minimized and only the meaningful data is saved and processed.
It is recommended that you use non-cumulative values for areas that dont change frequently such as warehouse stock or number of employees.
Non-cumulatives are modeled in BW using a non-cumulative value with the fields belonging to it for storing the non-cumulative or for inflows or outflows.
Non-cumulative values are stored with special KF that differ in terms of data transfers and aggregational behaviour.
Features of NON-Cumulative Values Transfering and Saving Data:
- NC values are mapped uisng one KF for NC changes or two KF for inflows and outflows.
-NC are transferred in an initialization run and the change runs that follow (initialization can also be omitted here)
- A non-cumulative value always has a time-related exception aggegation.

APO-DP - Change in Calculation Type of Key Figure in Production Environment

Hi Team,
I wish to know how to make a change in Calculation Type of Key Figure in Production Environment. I wish to change calculation type from "P" to "S" and also wish to enter Disaggregated Key Figure.
Regards,
Tarun Jha

HI,
The TR will not move the changes as you are expecting here.
Any changes to planning area, below 5.0 need to de-intialize the planning area.
just like
1. hold the latest back up
2. de-intialize planning area
3. make the required changes to planning area
4. initialize planning area and do conisistency checks
5. load back the data to planning area at all CVC level
all the steps need to perfom, in Dev and Quality and Production servers,
Plan the activity for a weekend so that users will not get disturb*
All the best

Integrated Planning and Non-cumulative key figure

Hi
I´m creating an Integrated Planning application and a problem has occurred. The users want to plan on inflow and outflow and at the same time have a row with the total sum in the same layout (they are planning on 0CALMONTH and 0ORGUNIT) This can e.g. be solved through use Web Application Designer with one planning query and one traditional query.
Any way. I have created a non-cumulative key figure with an inflow- and an outflow key figure. The problem is that the non-cumulative key figure starts working first when I change the planning mode from plan status to load status. I could use function modules, to change the status, behind the save button but there are several users who are planning at the same cube at the same time and I don´t want to lock the others from planning.
How to solve this?
- Is it possible to restrict the switching, from plan to load, by setting some kind of filter at the users org.unit? (0ORGUNIT is an authorization object)
- Is it possible to create a process chain and then load the data to another cube for reporting at just this key figure? And also here have a filter at the org.unit
I will gladly get all kind of idea and input to solve this problem. Maybe there is some other way to go than using non-cumulative key figureu2026

Thanks for your answers
I have tried different scenarios and I will use a u201Dsave-buttonu201D. In the save-button I use the commands SAVE_DATA and EXECUTE_PROCESS_CHAIN. The command u201CEXECUTE_PROCESS_CHAIN starts a process chain that switches from plan mode to load mode and then back to plan mode again.
One new problem has arisen. The non-cumulative key figure is updating if an existing value (inflow- or outflow) is changed. But if an input is made to an empty cell, without value, nothing happen when I press on the start-button. BUT if I refresh the browser the non-cumulative value is updated!!!
Is there any command in WAD that refresh the whole page? If so I can include it in my start-button.
If not, any sugestion on how to solve the problem?
Best regards
Mikael

Changing the formula to a key figure on a query

Hello All,
I do not have access to BEx. I would please like to know how to change the formula to a key figure "Total $" in a QD Promo Analysis query (technical name - N03_Q_D_N03_SD_502_0003). Will transaction RSRT take me to the query and eventually the formula so I can change it? If so please give me guidance as this is the first time I go into transaction RSRT. If there is another way please also give guidance.
Thank you and kind regards
Keith Kibuuka

Hi Vishvesh,
Thank you for your response. Maybe access to BEx was the wrong word - I do have access although I was trying to avoid configuring the SAP logon to add this particular client onto because I have not done this before. My boss has helped me and I have now have "access".
Therefore from the query designer can you please guide me on how to change the formula to a key figure on a query? Input from all people is also be very much appreciated.
Thank you and kind regards,
Keith

Difference between cumulative and non-cumulative key figures

Hi,
What is the difference between cumulative and non-cumulative key figures and under what conditions they are used. What is snapshort and where it is used.

Hi.............
Basically the key figures are of two types cumulative and non cumulative.
Cumulative are the normal one which you use always and they always bring the new values of the key figures in the delta that is if suppose A has value 10 and after change the new value is 20 then you will use cumulative key figures there, and your delta( new value) will bring 20.
but suppose your key figures field only the change in the prior value that is in this case the delta in the key figure value will bring 10 (20-10- change of 10 )as new value in the key figure A then you will have to model it through the non cumulaitve key figures.
Now
1) Cumulative is for the first case that is if the key figure alwyas brings the new values of the key figure and not the change sin the key fiures value.
2)NCum. value with NCUM value change:
In this case ther is only one field which brings the changes for a particualr key figure and you ahve to define that key figure as non cumulative.
Ex: In case of stock only one filed brings both ingoing value and outgoing value so 10 ,-4,100,-34.....
In this case you will this option and use the key figure here in the space provided.
3) In this case you haev two separate key figures one for the inflow of stocks and one for the outflow of the stocks.
you use one key figure for the inflow and one key figure for the outflow.
The main key figure autiomatically takes care of the logic and gives the correct output upon the summation
net value of stocks( inflow- outflow).
Also do remember in this case the key figure for inflow and out flow are the basic key figures that is cumulative key figures.
A non-cumulative is a non-aggregating key figure on the level of one or more objects that is always displayed in relation to time. Examples of non-cumulatives include headcount, account balance and material inventory. here the aggregation of key figure is based on the another info object
There are two different ways to define non-cumulative key figures:
Non-cumulative key figure with non-cumulative changes:
Before you can define the non-cumulative key figure, an additional cumulative key figure containing the non-cumulative change must exist as an InfoObject.
Non-cumulative key figure with inflows and outflows
There has to be two additional cumulative key figures as InfoObjects for non-cumulative key figures - one for inflows and one for outflows. The cumulative key figures have to have the same technical properties as the non-cumulative key figure, and the aggregation and exception aggregation have to be SUM.
Features of non-cummulative key figures
A non-aggregating key Figure.
Records are not summarized for Reporting
Exception Aggregation is being applied on these key figures on the level of one or more info objects usually with time .
Examples: Head Count, Account balance, Material stock
consider simple senario
Date Net Stock Quantity Sales Revenue
01.02.2005 40 1000
02.02.2005 50 2000
03.02.2005 25 3000
this is the query output if stock quantity has treated as cummulative and non-cummulative key figures
if stock quantity taken as a cummulative key figure
Date NET STOCK QUANTITY SALES REVENUE
01.02.2005 30 1000
02.02.2005 50 2000
03.02.2005 20 3000
RESULT 100 6000
in the above result the key figure has aggregated to the total value that wont give sense to the net stock quantity
if stock quantity taken as non-cummulative key figure
Date Net Stock Quantity (LAST) Sales Revenue
01.02.2005 30 1000
02.02.2005 50 2000
03.02.2005 20 3000
RESULT 20 6000
Hope this helps you..............

Defination and use of key figure in copa

dear experts,
   i'm new to co-pa.
   can anyone explain to me the defination and use of key figure in copa??
many thanks
mu

Hi!
Generally you use key figure for defining calculated values for use as tracing factors for cost center assessment to COPA.
    You can use for this t.code KE2K as define calculated values as reference values.
For Ex.
Key Figure R1 contains below value fields through formula :
R1 = ERLOS + VV00 + VV01 + VV02
where ERLOS = Revenue
VV00 = Exports Revenue
VV01 = Domestic Discount
VV02 = Exports Discount
So, this key figure you can use as a base for tracing factors for cost cetner assessment to COPA.
Hope it will clear to you. Pls ask for any further query.
Thanks & Regards,
Taral Patel

Calculate key figures are not important to reports

Hello Experts,
How can I delete a calculated key figure from the query when the change of report query is not accessible from the analyzer?
Thank you

If you can create a new workbook you can. Simpy right-click on "Key figures" in the BEx Analyzer, remove the specific C-KF from the displayed list of keyfigures and the save the Workbook. You should check if you have the authorization rights to save this new Workbook into existing roles, or just your Favourites.
Altering the Query is a bit more work though.

Key figure data in BEx report

Hi,
We are viewing some of the Key figure data of a particular report as ".", "$21.99MIN" etc, where $21.99 is the original value. When we click on the excel sheet cell and view in the formula bar, data is showing $21.99 correctly. But it is appearing as "$21.99MIN". In some places just"." is appearing where data can be seen in the formula bar.
Tried, converting to Formula option, with which we can see the numbers but as usual it is behaving as a normal excel sheet after applying the function.
Please suggest how to view the correct data for the report.
Regards

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
It is a direct key figure. Two key figures in the query are displayed like this, while other KFs are displating the values as it is. Also i checked the data in Multi provider, BEx definition of the info object etc, there is no problem.

Key figures in Cost elemnt based report

Dear All,
I have created a Cost Element based Report for the Project using report painter. In this same report, I want to pull a key figure(the key figure is 'remaining forecast planned costs") which is coming from cost forecasting report (Report 12CTC1 from transaction CJE0).
The issue is this 'key figure' is not available for report made in report group 6P3(report group for cost element based report). Is there anyway I can pull this particular key figure in my report.
Thanks in advance !
Regards,
Mahendra Dighe

Also if you're using HR data, the employee data is time dependent, so that for each employee number there are any number of records. This may be causing the aggregate reporting condition that you mentioned. In BW it's important to recognize that the master data also can play a role in how many records are returned. The infoprovider is not the only source of additional records. For example:
Employee has three records in the time range.
Salary infoprovider has only one.
Results will contain THREE records, one for each employee record, all with the same salary record. On an aggregate basis, the salary results will be multiplied by three.
Time dependent master data can be a source of much confusion. For some HR reporting, I have created a 'most current' employee master data record that is not time dependent, and is loaded daily. I then use that for data models such as salary or other separate infoproviders.

How to find if one key figure is used in any report

Dear Experts ,
I have one key figure info object .I wanted to know how to find this key figure is used in which report .
As I know "where used list " but this will not help me .
Any suggestions please share .
Puru

Hi Puru,
Try following approach,
goto RSZELTTXT table and put your key figure name in the long text and click on execute. Get the list of all the ETULID's and go to table RSZCOMPDIR from this table for all the ETLUID's get all the list of COMPUID's and from COMPUID's you will be able to find all the reports from RSRREPDIR in which that key figure is getting used.

Key figure present in Infocube but not in Transformation

Hi All,
I have added two new quantity key figures in my cube but I am not able to find them in Trnasformation from undelying DSO to the said CUbe.
ALtough if i search for the Key figures in the cube i am able to see them but they are not present in the trnasformation.
NOTE: i have 252 char and key figures in my cube at present ( this number i got from the sl no field in transformation

Hi,
Check for the consistency of the cube and Activate again, the related transformations should go for inactive,
Add the same 2 KFs in the underlying DSO as well, activate
then check the 2 KFs should be in the Transformations, mapp it and acticvate.

Change comma to period

Hi.
I'm looking for a method to change all occurences of comma into period of a column.
Its formatted number(18,4)
I have tried:
update table
set column = replace (column, chr(44), chr(46)
where column like chr(44)
No luck
Nicolai

Hi Nicolai,
If the column is of NUMBER datatype the comma or the period isn't really stored there.
The NLS_ settings just controls how it default displayed when displayed as a string.
If the column does containt numbers, only you should never change it into varchar2.
On my system I have:
SQL> select 'DATABASE' level_, parameter, value
from nls_database_parameters
where parameter in ('NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS')
union all
select 'INSTANCE', parameter, value
from nls_instance_parameters
where parameter in ('NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS')
union all
select 'SESSION', parameter, value
from nls_session_parameters
where parameter in ('NLS_LANGUAGE', 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS')
LEVEL_   PARAMETER                      VALUE
DATABASE NLS_LANGUAGE                   AMERICAN
DATABASE NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS         .,
INSTANCE NLS_LANGUAGE                   AMERICAN
INSTANCE NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS
SESSION NLS_LANGUAGE                   DANISH
SESSION NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS         ,.
6 rows selected.So I get (Since the database and instance settings are written over at session level):
SQL> select 1.2 from dual
       1.2
       1,2
1 row selected.If I want to change it I can
SQL> select to_char(1.2, '9.0') from dual
TO_C
1.2
1 row selected.Or
SQL> alter session set NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = '.,'
Session altered.
SQL> select 1.2 from dual
       1.2
       1.2
1 row selected.Regards

Multicube with Cumulative and Non Cumulative Key Figures

Is there any problems if I build a Multicube which consists of InfoProviders which have non-cumulative key figures (Inventory cube) and those which do not
In the query I will be summing the key figure for example Stock Quantity across the InfoProviders? Thanks

Hi,
There is no problem if you do that only thing is when you assign key figures in the multiprovidesr you have to be careful in deciding the infoprovider from which the key figure comes.
Hope this helps
