Characteristics in between Keyfigures
Hi,
C1 and C2 are characteristics. K1 is a keyfigure. C3 is material and K2 is the corresponding qty. The output should be like the following.
C1 C2 K1 C3 C3 Total
K2 K2 K2+K2
I couldn't add C3 in between K1 and K2 in columns. When I created a replacement path variable on C3 and placed it in between K1 and K2, the result is like below.
C1 C2 K1 C3 K2 Total C3 K2 Total
How can I achieve the desired result?
Also, for the total, if I use sumct(K2) with no K1, I get the following output.
C1 C2 C3 C3
K2 Total
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
C1 C2 K1 Material1 Materiall2 Total
A1 B1 C1 1 2 3
A2 B2 C2 2 1 3
Total is the total number of quantities under Material1 and Material2.
How to get the total?
Thanks.

Exception on keyfigure depending on 3 characteristics
Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem in exceptions of query designing.The scenario is there are 2 characteristics and one keyfigure. the keyfigure (KF) needs to be highlighted according to the 2 characterisctics
Eg if
employee factory sales(KF)
old old red3
new new white
in fact the salary colour also depends on another charactristic months:
if sales > 0 then colour of the KF should be green irrespectve of the 2 characteristics
if sales = 0 then colour of the KF should be maintained according to the table above.
i have a listed a small scenario.
the problem is not with when sales >0 this condition is being satisfied but when month = 0 I am not able to include the conditions
Is this possible using an exception, or any other method for that matter.Please do suggest.
Edited by: Beauty on Mar 25, 2010 1:54 PMHi Jean
There is one error in the question the word month should be replaced by sales..
I am trying this pblm in Bex Query designer and if possible can you be more clear on "modify tables"..
As far as I know there is nothing in query designer as " modify tables"...
And also if possible give me a solution for solving this situation in Bex query designer.

Characteristics and keyfigures not filled in cube
I created the following datamodel (objects with fieldlist):
IOBJ 0REOBJ => DSO T0910020 => CUBE T09C10120
REOBJ REOBJ (key) REOBJ
Z_DATETO Z_DATETO (key) Z_DATETO
Z_DATEFROM Z_DATEFROM Z_DATEFROM
... Z_KF_DATO Z_KF_DATO
... Z_KF_DAFR Z_KF_DAFR
0REOBJ is filled by existing dataloads. This works correctly for a number of years already. Dataload works as 3.x.
Dataload from infoobject to DSO works correct. The DSO contains all data as expected. The date-as-keyfigure fields are correctly filled. Dataload works with a DTP process.
The dataload from DSO to CUBE appears to work correctly (green traffic-light) but only REOBJ is filled. All other fields remain empty. Also the dates-as-keyfigures remain empty. I have tried both 3.x updaterule and 7.0 transformation, both with same result.
Any clues about what I am doing wrong?Did you check if the characteristics of your Keyfigures are filled correctly. I once had the problem that some of my key figures in the transfer rule did not contain all characteristic assigments.
Goto the transfer rule, doubleclick on "Type" of one of those keyfigures which are not filled an check, if on tab characteristics all assignments are the same as in the other key figures.
This may be helpfull ?!
Kind regards,

How to Swap the Data between 2 characteristics using FOX Code
Dear All,
We have a requirement to swap the data between 2 characteristics. I tried to get the data from one characteristics using BPS variable VARV() and another characteristic need to get from craters data. But using OBJV() function it is not working for that.
If i try to swap the data between characteristics directly, they are not allowing. It says Type is not same, though it is same type as per properties wise.
Could anybody let me know is it possible to change the characteristics data between characteristics by moving between each other in FOX Formulas. General case it is possible to change the data between same chars.
Thanking you in advance.
Kind Regards,
Ram.

Hi,
Can I define Labor Cost, Material cost, Over head cost as characteristics instead of KeyFigures what are the draw backs if I do this way?
I saw in BI they defined why they defined like this?
Thanks in advance help.
Regards,
AlexIf you define those as characteristics then you won't be able to quantitatively measure them, you won't be able to add or do whatever you want to do as a key figures, unless you convert that to KF with formula variable.
There are times you may need to define them as Char, for example, in my case I defined leadtime (which is actually Number) defined it as Characteristics because leadtime which is the difference between two days won't make sense to add it together for two materials, it should be defined as char for each material.
Hope I am clear.
thanks.

Fixing row characteristics in sap bi report using query designer
Hello ,
I have requirement as follows :
In my sap bi report there are row characteristics in sequence as follows :
1) zone 2) project description 3) wbs hirarchy 4) wbs description
and free characteristics as
1) name of vendor
2) network description .
3) network
Requirement is : I nee to freeze the first 3 row characteristics means no one can drag and drop free characteristics in between these ( i mean he can't drop free characteristics between zone and project description ) . Also , he can't drag an drop any of these to free characteristics .
He can drag and drop after these rows characteristics .
Any idea how it can be implemented in query designerIts still same.

Non-Cumulative keyfigure example
Hi all,
To test for non-cumulative keyfigures I have modeled a keyfigure noofemployees and below is my model
<b>Infocube has following characteristics, timecharacteristics and keyfigures</b>
Charteristics: Companycode
TimeChar: 0calmonth
Keyfigures: salesrevenue and noofemployees
<b>My infosource has following infoobjects</b>
Companycode,0calday,salesrevenue,nofoemployees
In update rules, I wrote a formulae(0calmonth2) to convert 0calday to 0calmonth.
I want to generate a report to know for every company, its monthly sales and number of employees.
I created numberofemployees as a cumulative keyfigure with exception aggregation as Maximum(to get the maximum number of employees in one month instead of aggregating the values). I don't know if I am doing something wrong, but my keyfigure noofemployees is aggregated for each month.
Please let me know if I created the keyfigure noofemployees correctly.
thanks,
Sabrina.Hi Sabrina,
A non-cumulative keyfigure can be modeled in BW either using
-a cumulative keyfigure that stores the non-cumulative value changes of the non-cumulative keyfigure or
-Two cumulative keyfigures which represent the inflow and outflow values of the non-cumulative keyfigure.
The keyfigures used to define the non-cumulative keyfigure - keyfigure for non-cumulative value change or keyfigures for inflow and outflow - should themselves be cumulative keyfigures and have the following properties.
Standard aggregation -> Summation
Exception aggregation -> Summation
So as per the definition you first create a cumulative Key figure to capture the non-cumulative value changes of the non-cumulative keyfigure.Say ZKF1 and assign following properties:
Aggregation: Summation
Exception Aggregation:Summation.
Now create a Non-cummulative Key Figure say ZKF2 and assign following properties:
Aggregation: Summation
Exception Aggregation:Last Value
Non Cummulative Value Change:ZKF1.
This will give you non-cumulative keyfigures "number of employees" correctly.
Hope this helps.Please grant points if it solves your purpose.

Hi,
I need to have the following in BI7.0 where C1, C2 and C3 are characteristics K1, K2 are keyfigures. C3-material and K2-qty so that the qty for a particular material is displayed in the column. Also,I need to put K1 before C3.
C1 |C2 | K1 | C3
K2
I amnot able to add K1 before C3 and K2 after C3 in the column. Hence, I don't get the desired result.
How can I have one kefigure before the characteristics and another keyfigure after the characteristics in the column?
Thanks.Have the report in this format
C1|C2|C3|K1|C3*
here C3 can be hidden and then have a formula variable with replacement path on C3 with characteristic value.

Two Date Characteristics As An OR Condition For Date Range Input
Hello,
Here's the requirement. The user inputs a date range. In the query, we have two date characteristics. If at least one of the date characteristics falls between the inputted date range, then the row should show up on the report. This is essentially an OR condition. How can this be done?
Thanks!hi,
just a tought... but worth a try.
1) Create an 2 Formula variables with User Exit.(ZF1 & ZF2)
2) These will be filled with data with SETP2(User Exit) from the user Entry Variable. One variable will have from date & the next one will have to date.
3) Then create 2 more Formula variables (ZR1 & ZR2) this time with replacement path for the 2 date you have and the create a global Key Figure with If Condition.
CKF's:
(( ( ZR1 >= ZF1) AND ( ZR1 <= ZF2 ) ) * (your vales)
repeat the same for the ZR2 also.

Crystal Report 2011 does not display when keyfigures are zero
I am using Crystal report 2011 with BEX Queries as Data Source. I am not able to see some of the characteristics values when keyfigures are zero or null. In BEX query there is a costCenter Characterstic, few costcenter characteristics values are zero for some months but BEX Query is designed to show as spaces even if the keyfigures are zero for those costcenters. When I am using the same Bex Query with Crystal report 2011 all the costcenters with keyfigures as zero are not showing up on the report. Can anybody suggest how I can show the characterstics values even if all the keyfigures are zero. (I have not selected any kind of suppression in section expert in crystal report), (In Bex Query CostCenter- Properties-Advanced----Access Type for Result values are set to Master Data)
Hi,
Have you made sure the correct Transport files have been loaded on the SAP system? Since you're using CR 2011, you need to make sure the Transports that come with this version of CR are present on the SAP system.
Could you see if the workaround mentioned in SAP Note: 1391673 works for you?
Here's a snippet of the SAP Note:
SAP Development team of BW BEX MDX Interface suggest the following implementation:
Since Crystal Reports is not correctly interpreting the character used to represent NULL values (by default the value: X) please use the Customizing transaction: RSCUSTV4 to change the sent value.
Please note, this is a Global setting, and will also modify the behaviour in BEx application.
WORKAROUND: Create a formula field based on the selection that always returns a number - converting null to 0.
Create a formula in BEx for the KF.
Edit the Selection
Edit the formula to behave like:
COUNT ('KF') * 'KF' + 0
('RKF' + 0) * 1
Not generally acceptable since it requires duplicating fields.
Also, business may not accept 0,00 for a NULL result.
Hope this helps!

Query performance - how many keyfigures are included ?
Hi
With a Universe based on a bex query with lets say 25 characteristics and 30 keyfigures.
Some of the keyfigures are restricted such as SalesYTD, SalesLYTD, SalesThisMonth, SalesLastMonth.
If I make a WEBI report based on a BO query on this Univers including only 2 mesures/keyfigures, and 4 dimensjon objectrs ( Characteristics ) - will those objects also be the objects in the actual query running for the report ?
Any difference if I put the characteristics in the free-characteristic area ?
I thought the queru would only make use of the selected objects from the BO report, but have heard people say that this only goes for the characteristics, not the keyfigures .
Anyone with a clear answer to this.
Best Regards
IngridHi,
when using NW BW 7.01 SP05 with BusinessObjects SP2 it will not.

difference between keyfigure and characteristics
Welcome to the SDN!
We recommend that you first search for the solutions to your question in the SDN forums or SAP help, and if you do not find an answer, then you post as a new question.
The difference between chars and key figures is one of the basic building blocks of BI and you can read much about it by a little searching.
You can also search the Library on SDN (which is where you can find the most links to docs) by starting at here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_library&adv=true
Give some proper key words and choose the BI area and see what somes up. Several times I have also found Google very useful to search even for forum threads! Also the BI area on SDN is the home to a lot of documents and links to connect to:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/bi
The above link will help you to get to blogs, How to docs, FAQs, Demos etc.
Hope this helps you...Good Luck -
Ageing Buckets for whole query
Dear All,
I have to make a BEx query on meter characteristics. No keyfigures
The whole information should shown against buckets (current date - disconnection date of meter)
0-30 days Customer Meter No Meter Type Zone
31-60 days Customer Meter no. Meter Type Zone.
I tried making selections with disconnection date (0calday value range variable 0dat-30to 0dat-0 and 0dat-60 to 0dat-31). I included a dummy keyfigure (disconnection amount) in selection
But data isn't coming according to conditions. Any suggestions please.
Regards,
CleoCleo,can you please clarify what exactly you need to show in those bucket range.
I understand you have disconnection date in your provider and for current date you can use sap standard formula variable i.e 0F_ADAY.
Now to get the difference between the two,if disconnection date is of type char.then you need to convert the same into kf for getting the difference with the help of replacement path.
Note:It is mandatory to keep that date in rows which you use as reference char.in formula variable otherwise it will not work.
Please check the above points.

Hi,
I got Technical Specs from my company to create DSO , so here in Technical Specs under Data Fields Coloumn some are Characteristics and some Keyfigures.
but what i know Data Fields should only contains Keyfigures? Need Clarification.
Thanks and Regards.
AsimHi Asim
You can think of a DSO as just a regular database table. It obviously has additional features but for storage purposes think of it as a table. The key fields specify the primary key of the table and therfore the granularity of the data to be stored. All other fields (whether characteristice or key figures) are defined as data fields.
Hope this helps
