Convert Char as KF at Query Level

Hi,
I have a query will all line Item Details with GI Date details.
But my requirement is the for all line Item details i want the GI date as mentioned for Line Item 10. (i,e First Schedule Line Date) at query level.
Is there any way i can convert the GI date Char to KF and then apply Restriction on Item 10 in Restricted Key Figure.
Is there any other way to archive this at query Level only.
Thanks for your suggestions,
Joseph M

Hi Joseph,
Probably we could try the following solution
Create two formula variables of replacement path type. - one for line item and one for GI date.
Create a formula with logic - if line item 10 then display actual GI date, else date 01/01/1000 or any date which will be surely smaller than the GI dates available in the system.
In the properties, maintain, calculate result as the highest value.
Then probably you could use SUM(CT) data function for another formula and use the formula we created above.
I am not sure that this will work, but worth giving a try. Else, we would have to accomodate the requirement in the model.
Lastly, do take a look at virtual characteristics and key figure. That might be one option.
Looks like we are reporting on item level, which means we would be dealing with huge data, in such cases virtual characteristic would be too much bearing on performance.
Hope it helps,
Regards,
Sunmit.

Hi,
Craete Custome Exit Variable on CalDay and use the follwoing code in CMOD
In the following code I declared ZT_DT1 as SY-DATUM, I think in your case you change the data type and check, but the code is same, you need to check data typs only.And also if required use LOOP and ENDLOOP else delete it directly use Variable 'ZT_DAY1' .
i.e.
WHEN 'ZT_DAY1' .
        ZT_DT2 TYPE SY-DATUM,
          ZT_SDT TYPE SY-DATUM,
          ZT_YR(4) TYPE N,

          ZT_MT(2) TYPE N,
          ZE_TT(2) TYPE N.
          ZT_SDT = SY-DATUM.
        IF sy-subrc = 0.
          CLEAR: l_s_range.
          ZT_DY = loc_var_range-low+6(2).
          ZT_MT = loc_var_range-low+4(2).
          ZT_YR = loc_var_range-low+0(4).
          CONCATENATE ZT_DY ZT_MT ZT_YR INTO ZT_DT1.
          l_s_range-low = ZT_DT1
          l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
          l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
          APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
        ENDIF.
Else
WHEN 'ZT_DAY1' .
    DATA: ZT_DT1 TYPE SY-DATUM,

Convert char to date and query question

Hi,
I am working on Oracle database 9i.
I have t to insert date columns of creation_date and last_update_date from table Y to another table X in a character format YYYYMMDD. I did that with the following:
replace(to_char(sysdate,'YYYY/MM/DD'),'/')
My first question is how can I change the format again to oracle date when I read from table X?
My second question I want to read data from table Y to table Z on the following condition:
rows exist in both table but the last update_date in table Y is greater than the last_update_date in table Z . How can I achieve this?
thank you

If you want to show the current date in 'YYYYMMDD' format without '/' characters, then use 'YYYYMMDD' format without '/' characters:
TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'YYYYMMDD')
There's no need for REPLACE.
Justin is right (as usual). Keep date information in DATE columns. If you need to display a DATE in a particular format, use TO_CHAR when displaying it (or use "ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT" to change the default display format for all DATEs).
For your second question, start a second thread.
Whenever you have question, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all the tables involved, and the results you want from that data.
In the case of a DML operation (such as UPDATE) the sample data should show what the tables are like before the DML, and the results will be the contents of the changed table(s) after the DML.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say what version of Oracle you're using (e.g. 11.2.0.2.0).
See the forum FAQ:
The second problem sounds like a job for the analytic MAX function.

Currency Conversion at Query Level

Guys,
Can some one tell me step by step procedure to do Currency conversion from USD to Mexican PESO at query level in BI 7.0. I have read lot of threads but not clear in maintaining the Exchange rates and also in creating the variables.
Thank you,
Kumar

Hi Kumar ,,
You're able to convert the currency amount on the routine ...
Using this function :
CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY
Sample:
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY'
     EXPORTING
        DATE             = " current date.
        FOREIGN_AMOUNT   = " local currency amount (peso)
        FOREIGN_CURRENCY = " local currency
        LOCAL_CURRENCY   = 'USD'
     IMPORTING
        LOCAL_AMOUNT     = RESULT " result.
     EXCEPTIONS
        NO_RATE_FOUND    = 1
        OVERFLOW         = 2
        NO_FACTORS_FOUND = 3
        NO_SPREAD_FOUND = 4
        OTHERS           = 5.
To maintain the exchange rate, you can go to tcode: OB08
Hopefully it can help you a lot..

Exceptional Aggregation Option at Query Level in BW 3.5 Query Designer

Hi all,
I want to use Exceptional aggregation with reference char 0CALDAY,on Formula keyfigure in the Query designer(BW3.5).
But I am not getting that option when I went into Properties of that Keyfigure.So please Suggest me where I will Find that Exceptional Aggregation option & Ref.Char at the Query level.
Thanks,
Kiran Manyam

Hi
In the Key Figure Properties dialog box, choose Enhance >>. The Aggregation Behavior field is added to the dialog box.
You can make settings for the aggregation of the calculated key figure and the time that the calculated key figure is calculated here. Depending on the complexity of the formula, you can select various settings in the enhanced properties of the calculated key figure. The following types of calculated key figures with the corresponding formula complexity are available:

Time conversion at Query Level

Can anyone suggest any methods to convert the time from UTC time zone to PST time zone at Query level without changing at backend level???

If it is a key figure you can create a formula and add the offset.
If it is a characterisitc and you want to limit the selection you can use customer exit variables. If you want to display the characteristic value, then you may be able to do a replacement path variable to convert characterisitc to KF and then use a formula to adjust the offset.

Need the solution in the Bex Query level for a Business Requirement.

Hi BI Experts,
I have a requirement at Bex Query level and the scenario is like this:
Business Logic.
Right now am showing the Stocks falling in to time slot like 6-9 months and 10-12 months from the date of PKD in two columns B1 and B2 respectively.
And also calculating the stock selling price of B1 with 30 % discount and B2 with 50% discount.
In the above said discounts client may change the discount % in any future Quarters
Now the requirement is, if client needs to see the history of sales according to the declared Discount selling prices of stocks falling into B1 and B2 slots, he must get the values accordingly.
( Am using the Formulas for calculating the Discount % for the Stocks fall in to B1 and B2 slots)
Business Example:
For Q4 2007 The discount for B1 Stocks is 35% and B2 Stocks is 60%.
For Q2 2008 The discount for B1 Stocks is 35% and B2 Stocks is 55%.
For Q3 2008 The discount for B1 Stocks is 30% and B2 Stocks is 50%.
For Q4 2008 The discount for B1 Stocks is 40% and B2 Stocks is 50%.
Now running report ( running in Q4 2008 at some date) if client needs to check the B1 and B2 stocks in Q4 2007 or Q3 2008 the values need to come with the calculation of repective % of disounts declared in that quarters along with the selling prices in that quarter.
This all should be done at query level nothing to do at Infoproviders level.
Is there any option like storing query data as a master data and retrive it according to the selection to get the exact values of the respective % Discounts and time lines.
If It is not clear come up with questions for still more clarifications.
Points are assured.
Thanks in Advance,
RK.

Who is defining the % discounts for periods/quaters?
Is this maintained in a custom table or externally in legacy/R3 system?
There are various ways to achieve the result. Variable exits can be used or virtual KF/char can be used but all depends on actual requirements.
Cheers

BEX Query - Run time char InfoObjects manipulation for query results

Hello Experts,
Iam working on BEX queries to meet following requirements,
1) Display only first 2 char of an InfoObject in the query results. Actual infoprovider has 24 char for this InfoObject. Example: Summary code FABCDXXXX.. But we want to show only 'FA' in query results
2) We split a 120 char description into two 60 char InfoObjects, we need to concatenate the split char into one for query result display
3) We need to show a specific hierarchy level, nothing before or after. For example: Eighth level for a cost element hierarchy.
4) We need to show a constant in a column (which is not there in the table)
We are planning to use both BEX analyzer and Crystal for the reports.
I read in one of the thread that we can use formula variables/Customer exit for this but iam not very clear, if you know how to do it or if you have any step by step procedure, can you please pass it to me. Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Raman

Thanks for quick response. We have users who need BEX analyzer, is there any way to handle the above requirments for BEX analyzer.

Query level filter not working in Webi report

Hi All,
I am using BOXI R3.1 (SP3), m facing one problem when refreshing Webi report on daily basis. I am using three query level filter as a prompt, but i checked one filter is not working then i need to reapply this filter and rest 2 filter is working fine.
Can anyone suggest me why problem is coming?
Regards,

Hi,
Prompts are interactive, and come from the query panel. Filters are not interactive, and are set on the report or block. There are also input controls, which are interactive filters
1. Select the universe in the list of universes to open the Query Panel.
2. Drag the Year object to the Result Objects pane.
3. Drag the Number of Guests object to the Query Filters pane and create a report filter that restricts Number of Guests to greater than n.
4. Click Combined Query.
The Combined Query pane appears in the bottom left of the Query panel with the two queries joined by UNION.
5. Click on the second query and remove the Year and Number of Guests objects.
6. Drag the Reservation Year object to the Result Objects pane.
7. Drag the Future Guests object to the Query Filters pane and create a report filter that restricts the future guests to greater than n.
8. Click Run Query.

Date to Month Conversion at Query Level.

Hi,
I have Net due date in the Info provider.
At query level i have to create a restricted keyfigure based on Net Due Month.
Is there any way i can calculate Net due month at runtime and then create the restricted keyfigure using the net due month instead of using net due date directly(linke 01-10-2010 to 31 -10-2010 for october 2010).
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
Is there any way i can calculate Net due month at runtime and then create the restricted keyfigure using the net due month instead of using net due date directly(linke 01-10-2010 to 31 -10-2010 for october 2010).
you can calculate , but as he said you can add in cube , may be for cal month you are taking som eother date field.
in this case write one customer exist code .
create one varaibel on netdue date with customer not ready input (if user wants to enter input then ct=reate user entry varaible with reday input by using customer exit).
in routine wriet the code as when that varaible .
l_s_range - high , low and give then take the month form that date
like netdue date +0(6)-- gives month and year
netdue date +0(2)-- gives month
then rtestrict that variable with your keyfigure.
Thanks & Regards,

Convert char to ascii code and vice versa

HI
Is there any function module to convert char to ascii code and vice versa.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
be careful if you have unicode running in your system. URL_ASCII_CODE_GET is platform-dependent so it will return the internal HERX representation of the character in your system - which is hopefully and in most cases ASCII.
Under unicode, we use double-byte characters here. I tried this function and the result CHAR_CODE is '00' regardless what character I specify for TRANS_CHAR. But the coding is so simple I corrected resultig in this sample code:
[P]
convert p_form to ASCII (internal) representation
DATA:
    l_ofs TYPE syfdpos,
    l_len TYPE sy-linsz,
    l_ascii TYPE i.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
    <x> TYPE x.
l_len = STRLEN( p_ascii ).
DO l_len TIMES.
    l_ofs = sy-index - 1.
    ASSIGN p_ascii+l_ofs(1) TO <x> CASTING.
    l_ascii = <x>.
    WRITE: l_ascii.
ENDDO.
[/P]
Here, for each character of string p_ascii, the internal (ASCII) representation is determined and written to the output list.

Clemens

Convert char to dec

You can try like this.
DATA : v_tot_len TYPE i,
        v_off_len TYPE i.
DATA : v_off_text(50) TYPE c,
        v_dec_text(2) TYPE c,
        v_fin_text(50) TYPE c.
PARAMETERS : p_input TYPE text20 OBLIGATORY.
START-OF-SELECTION.
v_tot_len = STRLEN( p_input ).
v_off_len = v_tot_len - 2.
v_off_text = p_input+0(v_off_len).
v_dec_text = p_input+v_off_len(2).
CONCATENATE v_off_text v_dec_text INTO v_fin_text SEPARATED BY '.'.
Here I am inputting the text to be converted.
