Comparison of Characteristics

Guys,
I have got 2 characteristics Sales District and Shipping point which
displays 10 10 and 0010 format respectively. I need to compare these
2 characteristics
if Sales district = Shipping point - What is No of Quotes ?
if sales district <> Shipping point - What is No of quotes ?
How to compare 2 characterisitcs.
Regards
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
The way to do this owuldbe to create 2 formula variables by replacement path and use one of these chars (replace key value) in each. Then you can use these formula variables in a bex formula and compare.

Compare two characteristics in Query

Hi Experts,
I have to compare two characteristics in Query fields like (A)Approved Level of Job(contain values like 01,02,03,04) and (B)Required Level of Job(contain values like 01,02,03,04).
Now I have to do these calculations
If A>B =1
If A<B =0
And also in other case
If A=b then value 1
Of A =/= B then value 0
Please let me know how I can achieve this.
These values could be in A,B,C,D instead of 01,02,03,04 then in that case how I will calculate these comparison.
Thanks
Take care

Hi,
i need the solution in this format on the comparison two characteristics in Query:
0=false
1=true
Approved Level of Job(A)     Required Level of Job(B)      A=B         A not equal B     A>B               A<B
     1                                                         3                                       0                         1                      0                 1
     4                                                         2                                       0                         1                      1                 0
     3                                                         3                                        1                         0                      1                 1
     5                                                         4                                       0                         1                      1                 0
     1                                                         2                                       1                         1                      0                 1
count(A):5                        Count(B)5                                 sum 2                 sum 4           sum 3         sum 3
so my CKF will be
A>B/5 means 3/5=60%
I also need to know how i am going to count A and B too.

Cost center Reporting issue

Hi Experts,
When I'm taking a report for Cost center accounting under path:
Accounting-Controlling- Cost centers- Information system- Report selection- Cost center accounting -Plan/Actual comparisons- Additional characteristics- Area: Statistical key figures.
Data I key in the selection screen of report is: Controlling area, Fiscal year 2011, From period:2- To period: 2.
When the report was taken in May 2011, the figure against a cost center ACTUAL was 166,000kg.
But, when I take the report now for May 2011, the figure against this same cost center is showing -3416,600kg.
The Plan and actual against all other cost centers appears correct for the report taken in May 2011 and currently for the month of May 2011.
What could be the reson for this? How can I further investigate on this?Should I compare any mpre reports?
Any ideas appreciated!!
Thanks

Hi Surendra,
The situation is not very clear - would help if you can provide more details.
One possible reason might be the classification by period you are using in the second report - have you checked the InfoCube data?
Do a list cube on the underlying data target (since you use data target's' I am assuming it is a MultiProvider) and put in exactly the same selections as you use in the second query and see if it returns proper data.

BEX 7.x: Condition on the comparison of 2 characteristics

Hello,
My target was to create a query based on the cube of the BW statistics in order to determine the requests loaded in Cuves with Aggregates that were not yet actvated (missing Rollup).
Due to a strange SAP bug on the standard 0TCTREQNAGR KF that brings me results that are already agregated, I would like at least to filter the resulting records by comparing 2 characteristics:
1) 0TCTLSTAGRQ Last Aggregated request
2) 0TCTLSTLDRQ Last Loaded request
If they are equal, the KF is false and I don't want to display the record.
Do you know how I can do that (I aready tried playing with withut success)? By default do you have another idea on how I could make such a query?
Thanks in advance.
BW 7.x SP 17.
Best regards,
Stephane DIETRICH

Please see here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/03/6ba03cc24efd1de10000000a114084/frameset.htm
You will need to keep both these chars in the drilldown for the formula variable and resulting formula to work. Start creating the formula variable and choose the rpocessing as replacement path and then choose one of the requid chars you have mentioned in the first post. Once both formula variables are created, create a formula to compare the values of these 2. Treat this as boolean so that the output is either 1 or 0. Then create a condition on this formula to display only when 0 (false, meaning that the 2 values are not equal, or the other way around depending on what your query has to show).
Hope this helps...

Characteristics Comparison in Query - Ideas

Hello Everyone
I am hoping to get some ideas for my problem. We have a handful of cubes that have cost center charged and cost center originating. Many user request to be able to just report on cross charging (originating not equal to charged). I have written a macro in the refresh event that eliminates record where the two are the same. It works very well and allows all normal BW operations to be performed. But it is not efficient from the perspective that it can only analyze the records after they have been returned (so excel limitations for number of records takes over before I can reduce the amount of records with the macro).
Does anyone have ideas on how else I could handle this? I looked at the option of creating a "cross charge" characteristic in the cubes. Just a Y/N indicator, but that poses issues I would rather not deal with.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated. I'm sure there is something obvious I am not thinking of, or am just not aware of.
Thanks
Eric

Hi Eric,
You could create characteristic variables for both the Cost Centers of type replacement path and replace them by the key value of Cost center.
Then have a Formula to check for Cost Center 1 = Cost Center2 and eliminate all the ones that match by a condition where Formula Not equal to 1.
You can refer to this document which gives you an idea about calculating with attributes.

Characteristics without information in Queries of HR and PY

Hi All,
Two questions:
1. I have two infocubes activated, Headcount and Personnel Actions (0PA_C01) and Employee-Specific Payroll Data (0PY_C02). I had made extraction for these two cubes and they all are green, no error showed. Both of these share the following characteristics:
Gender - 0GENDER
Nationality - 0NATION
Personnel Area - 0PERS_AREA
Personnel Subarea - 0PERS_SAREA
Employee Group - 0EMPLGROUP
Employee Subgroup - 0EMPLSGROUP
Master Cost Center - 0MAST_CCTR
In the first cube (Head count and personnel action) I have a query Number of personnel actions 0PA_C01_Q002, in this query when I want to make a drilldown with the characteristics that I mention above, I cant see the information of those characteristics. I can only see the total information of the main characteristic (Hiring and Number of Actions).
I dont have that problem with a query of the second infocube I mentioned. I can make a drilldown of those characteristics and they will show me information.
When I go to option Maintain Master Data in every Infoobject, Im seeing that they have information (Master Data).
What can be the problem with the query 0PA_C01_Q002? Why is not showing information in those characteristics?
2. In the Query Quarterly Comparison of Wage Types Previous Year/CurrentYear 0PY_C06_Q008, from the Infocube Employee-Specific Payroll Data (0PY_C02), I can see all the information except for the characteristics of Gender and Nationality. These two characteristics dont show information, and their infoobjects do.
What is wrong with it? All the extraction for this cube are perfect (green)
Thanks a lot
Regards
Vic

Hi,
Almost all the characterstics of both of the cubes gets the dat by looking into either 0EMPLOYEE or 0PERSON.
Gender -GENDER---> from 0PERSON
Nationality - 0NATION---> from 0PERSON
Personnel Area - 0PERS_AREA---> from 0EMPLOYEE
Personnel Subarea - 0PERS_SAREA---> from 0EMPLOYEE
Employee Group - 0EMPLGROUP---> from 0EMPLOYEE
Employee Subgroup - 0EMPLSGROUP---> from 0EMPLOYEE
Master Cost Center - 0MAST_CCTR---> from 0EMPLOYEE
So we have to make sure that all the data available in R/3 for person and Employee is uploaded , before we upload the data to Cube.
So Do full upload for Both 0PERSON_ATTR and 0EMPLOYEE_ATTR and then activate the Master data and then reupload the data to cubes.Then automatically both of your problms get solution.

Comparisons in BEx report

Hi All,
I have a BEx report requirement which seems to be pretty manageable but looks like I'm missing something..
PROBLEM:
I have a report in which should have the following columns
1. Employee ID
2. Revenue of Billing Partner
3. Revenue of Engagement Partner
4. Revenue of Lead Client Service Partner
Billing Partner, Engagement Partner and Lead Client Service Partner characteristics reference employee id and are stored in the cube.
Emp id | Bill Prt Rev| Eng Prt Rev| Lead CSP Rev
1000    | $500        | $600       | $400
In the above example, Emp id=1000
$500 is the revenue where Billing partner = 1000
$600 is the revenue where Engagement partner = 1000
$400 is the revenue where Lead CSP = 1000
I know I have to do characteristic comparisons but did not give right results.
Appreciate your responses.
Thanks,
Krishna

Hi CC,
Here's the report format:
Emplid|     Bill Prtnr Rev | Eng Partner Rev| Lead CSP Rev
1000 |       1980418      | 1571906       |       0
2050 |        697789      |   732533     |   21090

Characteristics missing in EasyDMS?

Hi all,
First time poster. I have a troubleshooting question regarding EasyDMS. I'm currently setting up some test document types for training purposes and I'm having trouble understanding why EasyDMS isn't showing the characteristics that I have setup!
Is this possibly a bug? Please see the image I have linked here for comparison between SAP GUI and EasyDMS. I'm unsure as to why the characteristics are missing and shown as inactive within EasyDMS.
Your help is much obliged.
[http://img.skitch.com/20091006-kputgubx8g559u11jyr1jkskcu.jpg]

Hi Iring,
The classes are currently already being maintained. This isn't the issue. The view in the screenshot was just to show that there are characteristics attached to the DIR itself. Nothing more. My problem is that even with all the config in SPRO being maintained, I still can't seem to see characteristics within EasyDMS!?!
I have classes and class types currently being maintained for the particular document type. So this isn't the issue.
If SAP GUI shows characteristics why doesn't EasyDMS?
It's worked before... but this is the first case I have come across whilst applying config in an environment. I'm wondering is it a particular client problem?
P.S. I'm using non-unicode client. I understand the limitations, but am unsure if this is part of the problem as well!
Any assistance would be welcome!
Thanks again for your quick reply.

Color Balance Adj Layer Characteristics Changed from CS4- CS5?

Maybe some guru with better connections to Adobe knows the answer to this. (or maybe I just forgot).
I just discovered (and I don't think it is pilot error) that the characteristic behavior of the Color Balance Adjustment Layer is different in CS5 than it was in CS4/CS3. (Much stronger in CS4/CS3).
In addition, there is also an associated behavior that is like a buried legacy mode that is not made visible to the user. Here is what I mean.
If I create an image in CS4 with a single Color Balance Adj Layer, I get an adjusted image.
If I open that same PSD file in CS5, the same image is displayed.
If I use the same base image, yet create the Color Balance Adj Layer from within CS5, the adjusted image is different than the prior two.   So the Color Adjustment Layer acts like it has a hidden legacy mode where the characteristics are one type if created in CS4/CS3 yet a different characteristic if created in CS5.
My mind might be slipping (or my cold has the better of me) because I do not remember this as a documented change and I searched the internet for "What's new in CS5" etc etc. I don't remember anything on other forums about this either.
I guess the good news is, the new characteristic of the Color Balance Adjustment Layer is better behaved with a transfer curve with less clipping for highlights and shadows. Very similar to the better behavior of the change of the Brightness/Contrast Adjustment Layer going from CS2 to CS3.
Here are some comparison images.
This is the Layer Stack Used with Base Image of simple B to W gradient with CB Layer on top with just the highlights pegged to red. This is the exact same Layer Stack for all of the images shown:
Here is the first image. This was created in PS CS4 and displayed from CS4 with the conditions show above:
This is the same image from above that was saved as PSD with profile and them imported to PS CS5 with same profile. There was no change:
This next image is using the same base gradient, yet then creating the CB Layer from within PS CS5 with the same parameters, only the Red pegged for the Highlights:
Does someone have an easy answer for this. Can someone duplicate this and confirm the change from CS4 to CS5. A test by someone else would either confirm I am off base with pilot error or there is something to this.
And yes, all the images were sRGB and kept in sRGB for creation/display. All Screenshot images were the images brought up side by side on the same color managed monitor.   All Edit > Color Settings were identical.
Thanks in advance for any help
John

OK, Chris, but before I perform my act of self flaggelation for the benefit for all and my extra embarrassment, let me add in some useful information about the Color Balance Adj Layer that could be helpful.
I was working with another individual who wanted a better understanding the color balance adj layer, what is was exactly doing, how the shadows, midtones, and highlights interacted, and the differences with preserve luminosity checked or not, and also why the preserve luminosity was so hard to predict (e.g. did not really preserve luminoisty).
Without going into the deails of all of that, the tidbit I will leave as far as penance for my stupid original post above is that the Color Balance Adj Layer with the Preserve Luminosity box checked does a reasonable job or preserving luminoisty for the midtone adjustments yet definitely does not for the shadow and highlight adjustments.
An easy workaround for this is to just set the Color Balance Adj Layer Blend to Color which preserves Luminosity of the image presented from lower layers while maintaining the Color as best it can from using the CB Adj Layer (It holds the Hue and does its best to keep the same Saturation yet the Luminoisty from the presented image from lower layers takes prescendence). This does a much better job at preserving Luminosity than using the checkbox option.    I usually use this approach and keep the Preserve Luminiosity box turned off.
The error that I made was during the fairly involved exchange with this other individual, at some point I accidentally set the Layer Mask for the CB Adj Layer to 50% gray and did not notice that it had changed from the default white. Much further down the line, when this other individual could not exactly recreate my results, he mentioned working in CS3. Thinking this odd, I pulled up CS3, created the image from scratch (without the erroneous mask change to 50% gray) so therefore I duplicated his results and did not realize the error was in my original Layer Stack. To make a long story short, I went and checked for differences in all system settings, profiles, Color Settings, opacity settings, Blend settings, Layer Style settings (and their options) etc, etc and overlooked a change in the Mask gray level.       When I quickly flashed back and forth between the two documents/stack it finally popped out at me. Mea Culpa.

How to compare two different characteristics at the same time in polestar

Hi Gurus,
I would like to analyse the e fashion universe in polestar with comparison of previous year product line with current year product line at the same time.
is there any way to do that we can compare two years of the product line sales revenue at the same time with comparison chart like 2003 T shirts vs 2002 T shirts
in polestar we can compare the two measures at the same time but i want to compare the sales revenue of product lines of two years in a comparison chart at the same time.
Regards and thanks
Abid Paul

Hi Stratos,
I am actually able to compare the Measures but i want the comparison between the two different characteristics like this year productline vs last year productline at the same time with say one measure like sales revenue or any other.
Is it possible to compare the both and it should represent in the chart as well at the same time.
In the polestar i can compare three measures at the same time but i want to compare characteristics like year 2009 productline VS 2008 productline with one measure say sales revenue.
I would really appreciate if you could help me out.
Regards and thanks
Abid

CRMCSTY Characteristics

Good day Guru's,
We mistakenly activated CRMCSTY characteristics in COPA, this should not be included as active characteristics.
Now we want to remove this from operating concern, however, when saving, system says CRMCSTY characteristics is still in use.
When checking, we found out that this characteristics was also active in customizing structure (CE10000)
How we we're going to delete/remove this from operating concern.
Please help and guide.
Thank you very much.
Mila
Issue Resolve.
Edited by: Mila Calonge on May 17, 2010 7:11 AM

Hi Christian,
Before deleting a COPA Characteristics, please make sure that there was NO actual cost on it. It is not advisable to delete a characteristics IF it already has a data on it, this would result to data inconsistency in COPA.
Steps:
1. Generate first the operating concern via KEA0 (status must be green). Note: need to generate this steps to make sure that the operating concern is ok prior to deleting characteristics "CRMCSTY"
2. Check also the number of say product already derived for comparison later. Should be the total numbers of product derived before the deletion execution of characteristic CRMCSTY must be the same after the deletion execution. This is to check on any effect on Derivation rules for other characteristic fied.
3. Go to T-code KECM- Customizing Monitor-Where to Use List. Purpose is to see the data/s affected on the characterisctis to be deleted.
      3a. Click "Where Use List" - Click Characteristics button then input characteristics "CRMCSTY" then Execute.
      3b. Another screen appear->click on Master Data-> Characteristics Derivation->Double Click on Step Function Call-> Clik on button Overview
      3c. Display screen " Characteristic Derivation Overview--> you can see see here the "Step 00xx Function Call". Note: the step number on function call will be use on the next step.
4. Go to T-code SE37 (refer to your ABAP Team)
      4a. On Function Module->enter KEDR_STRATEGY_STEP_DELETE then click Run.
      4b. Enter parameters and Step based on TKEDRS
            > I_APPL                 KE
            > I_SUBCLASS       01
            > I_STRATEGY_ID       DERI
            > I_ENV                 0000 (operating concern)
            > I_STEP_NO            00xx (refer to 3c)
            > I_CLIENT            xxx (client server)
       4c. Execute Delete
5. Go to T-code KEA0-Change-Find characteristic CRMCSTY
       5a. Delete Characteristic Field in Operating Concern
       5b. SAVE and Activate Operating Concern-status must be in color green.
6. Check again if the total number of say products derived have the same numbers in step2-should be the same.
Above steps resolved my posted issue.
Hope it helps.

Comparison haswell air 13 i5 vs mbp retina i5 the same ssd

Hi, everyone!
Where can i find comparison haswell air 13 i5 vs mbp retina i5 the same ssd?
Or at least air 2012 vs pro retina but equal characteristics (found many, but there are 8 gb ram vs 4 gb and i5 vs i7, which is b****t).
Thanks

I don't really know, yet. Maybe check with the folks at GeekBench in a couple of weeks?

Report for Comparison of Material Qty

Hi All,
I need to Develop an Interactive report for Comparison of Material Qty. ordered through Purchase requisition, ordered material through PO and corresponding Material Receipt report.
Can Someone Give a brief description about this & fields tcode & tables regarding this report.A sample code would be much appreciated.
Thanks & regards,
Ravi S

To get the material number combined with the PO text you will need the help of an ABAP programmer. The programmer can create a report for you using the function module READ_TEXT in the function group STXD. The tables to use are:
STXH - STXD SAPscript text file header
STXL - STXD SAPscript text file lines
The selection screen should have at least the following:
OBJECT - STXH-TDOBJECT
NAME - STXH-TDNAME
LANGUAGE - STXH-TDSPRAS
TEXTID - STXH-TDID
You find the information for these fields by going to the PO text entry screen and displaying the header information under Goto -> Header. For materials, the object is MATERIAL, the name is "material number", the language is "EN", and the text ID is BEST. You can use this program to get long text in lots of places like information records, purchase order texts, etc.
Hope this helps.
