Creating query on Bex - Quaterly comparison for statistical & Actual

Hi All,
I would like to create a query for 'Quarterly comparison for statistical & Actual periods'.
My Key Figures should be
1) Plan 1st Qtr (Fiscal year, Period: 1 to 3, Value type : 1(Plan), Version : 0(Plan/actual), Valuation View: actual Value).
2)1st Qtr (Fiscal year, Period: 1 to 3, "Value type : 4(Actual),11(Actual statistical)", Version : 0(Plan/actual), Valuation View: actual Value).
3)Var 1st Qt (Plan 1st qtr - 1st Qtr)
same thing for 4 Quaters. finally with
4)Plan Year (Fiscal year, Period: 1 to 12, Value type : 1(Plan), Version : 0(Plan/actual), Valuation View: actual Value).
I created a structure and created key figures with selections and formulas as required. But I did not see any data when I ran this query.
The report was generated with 'no applicable data'.
I need to create this query with plan 1st Qtr, Ist Qtr, Var 1st Qtr, Plan 2nd Qtr, 2nd Qtr, Var 2nd Qtr, Plan 3rd Qtr, 3rd Qtr, Var 3rd Qtr, Plan 4th Qtr, 4th Qtr, Var 4th Qtr, Plan year. key figures.
Please let me know how can I create this query with these Key Figiures.
Any help would be appreciated. Please respond with the reply.
Thanks,
Aparna.

Hi
The best way is then to run a report with your KF without any restriction, and the different chars in the drill down: Fiscal year, Period:, Value type, Version , Valuation View
Then you can check that you have some information with the combination of values of your chars:
Fiscal year, Period: 1 to 3, Value type : 1(Plan), Version : 0(Plan/actual), Valuation View: actual Value.
If you find a actual Value in the fiscal period you are looking at, for the period 1 to 3, for the Valuation type 1, for the version 0, then create arestricted KF by adding the restrictions one at a time....You moght discover why you do not get the results

SAS vs Oracle comparison for statistical modeling

Hi,
I am working on a project that require a lot of statistical analysis. as we are in a preliminary phase of determining which way to go, someone recommended to use SAS.
would you be able to share your experience/comments related to SAS vs Oracle comparison when it comes down to using statistical models within each of these applications. and is there a list of all statistical models that Oracle offers (it could be handy to compare it with our requirements.)
Plus, would also like to know if there is a way to test these models... just like APEX is offered free for testing purposes @ apex.oracle.com
Thanks in advance

You don't go into much detail regarding what types of statistical technques that you might want to use. First, Oracle both partners with SAS and competes and SAS. In terms of Oracle technology for statistics and models, we ship about 50 basic statistical technques with EVERY Oracle Database for free. Those stats include below. See SQL Reference Guide for details:
Descriptive Statistics
DBMS_STAT_FUNCS: summarizes numerical columns of a table and returns count, min, max, range, mean, median, stats_mode, variance, standard deviation, quantile values, +/- n sigma values, top/bottom 5 values
Correlations
Pearson’s correlation coefficients, Spearman's and Kendall's (both nonparametric).
Cross Tabs
Enhanced with % statistics: chi squared, phi coefficient, Cramer's V, contingency coefficient, Cohen's kappa
Hypothesis Testing
Student t-test , F-test, Binomial test, Wilcoxon Signed Ranks test, Chi-square, Mann Whitney test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, One-way ANOVA
Distribution Fitting
Ranking functions
rank, dense_rank, cume_dist, percent_rank, ntile
Window Aggregate functions (moving & cumulative)
Avg, sum, min, max, count, variance, stddev, first_value, last_value
LAG/LEAD functions
Direct inter-row reference using offsets
Reporting Aggregate functions
Sum, avg, min, max, variance, stddev, count, ratio_to_report
Statistical Aggregates
Correlation, linear regression family, covariance
Linear regression
Fitting of an ordinary-least-squares regression line to a set of number pairs.
Frequently combined with the COVAR_POP, COVAR_SAMP, and CORR functions
Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test, Anderson-Darling Test, Chi-Squared Test, Normal, Uniform, Weibull, Exponential
Additionally, Oracle has a Database Option called Oracle Advanced Analytics which delivers 12+ hi-performance, data mining algorithms (e.g. clustering, decision trees, regression, association rules, anomaly detection, text mining, etc.) as native SQL functions that can be called from SQL, the R language or the Oracle Data Miner workflow GUI (ships with SQL Developer). There is a LOT more information on the OAA Option here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/options/advanced-analytics/index.html?ssSourceSiteId=ocomen.
Hope this helps. cb

*Currency Conversion created in BW BEX query not working in BO report:*

Hi,
We have created a key figure with currency conversion and working fine in BEX when I execute that query.
But when created a BO universe and WEBI report on that query, I am getting following error.
"MDX query failed to execute with Error".
Can anyone please help.
Thanks
Dhana

Hi
Thanks. But new problem.
When I pulled OCURRENCY to free area now it is working in BO also.
But now another problem is --> for Currency translation am getting prompt in BO also to select target currency. There , all values (all currency types) are not displayed , only USD is coming. WEBI report is fine for USD conversion.
But when I want to convert into AUD , its not there in LOVs .
Some time back this problem exists in Bex also, but when we changed cube level setting as below:
Infocube : display-> OCURRENCY right click and go to "provider specific properties"..and then
go to "object specific properties " and then for "Query Exec Filter Val" selected "M Values in Master data table".
Now when executing query in Bex for target currency selection values it is taking from master data and displaying all types like USD, AUD, INR ..etc. in drop down list.
Now created new BO universe and new WEBI report but only USD is coming in selection LOVs not all types.
Please help us.
Thanks
Dhana.

Variant for Control Query on Bex Broadcaster Filter

I am trying to create a Bex Broadcaster setting on a query via query designer (query -->Publish --> Bex Broadcaster). In the Filter Navigation Tab, I want include a filter using a control query with variants. My control query has a variable that is set to (single value, mandatory,manual input) and i created a variant for the control query on the web. I am able to create the Bex Broadcaster setting and enter my control query but when I go enter the variant it always gives me "No selections available".
Another issue that i am having is - when I try to create a filter on a characterisitc in the Bex Broadcaster and give mulitple values in the filter, it ends up generating seperate excel files (distribution type is e-mail) for each value in the filter. Is there any way i can consolidate all these results and get it to generate on single file?

1st : no wanswer by now.
2nd : don't filter in the Broadcastsetting, filter in the Broadcastquery to avoid a broadcast for every filter value.

Report performance while creating report on BEx

All all!
I am creating a report on BOE 4.0 on top of BEx connection as a source. I have developed reports on top of universe in the past and i know that if we keep calculations on reporting end it hampers the report performance. Is this the same case with BEx? if we are following the best practices is it ok to say that we should keep all heavy calculations/ aggregation on BEx or backend for better report performance.
Can you guys please provide your opinion based on your experiance and knowledge. Any feedbacks will help! Thanks.

Hi,
Definitely best-practice to delegate a maximum of CKF to the Cube where possilble, put RKF in the BEx query, and Filters too.
also, add Default Values to your Variables (this will speed up generation of the bics transient universe)
also, since Patch2.10, we are seeing some significant performance improvements reducing 'document initialization' and 'time to prompts' by up to 50% (step such as these often took 1.5 minutes, even on sized systems)
Also, make sure you have BW corrections like this implemented: 1593802 Performance optimization when loading query views
In the BusinessObjects landscape - especially with BI 4.0 - it's all about Sizing and Tuning . Here is your bible the 'sizing companion' guide : http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000738725&_OBJECT=011000358700000307202011E
Pay particular attention to BICSChunkSize registry settings
Also, the -Xmx JVM Heap Size for the Adaptive Processing Server that is running the DSL_Bridge service.

Getting below error while opening query in bex 3.5x

Dear Guru's
I am getting below error while opening query in bex 3.5x
The following object were not found when accesing the server .
Press repair to correct the problem (included parts of query deleted) press cancel to undo the last action.

Hi,
1) When a query administrator with the sufficient authorization (sap_all or the * authorization for the field in the authorization object) is creating the query in query designer including the 'attributes' which are not visible with the 'normal' authorizations, the query will not list the columns in the output when it is executed by the normal user.
2) so create an authorization object for each of these attributes with * (full authorization)

Bex variable ready for input not displayed in webi

Hi,
I created bex query with some variables.
Variables are defined as "optional" but "ready for input". On productive system the prompts are all displayed, but when i transported the webi report to dev, some prompts are not displayed.
we are on BW 7.31 and BO 4.0. I also tried with BO 4.1. but the problem is the same.
I have no idea what's wrong here! Attached you can find some screenshots on my current settings.
thanks,
Katharina

Hi,
yes the reports are based on BICS and I moved them from prod to dev.
I already checked, the query panel does not show these variables!
I copied query and saved under new name, and i also created a new webi report upon this query, but some variables ready for input are still not displayed.

Katharina

How to create hierarchies in Bex queries?

Hi All,
I am new to query designer tool,
can you please help me how to create hierarchies in Bex queries using query designer tool?
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
directly you can't create hierarchy at bex level.
First you have to maintain hierarchy data source at source or bw side, based on your needs.
Later you can load data to hierarchy, after that at bex level you can activate hierarchy options to related info object properties.
To maintain hierarchy we need to enable hierarchy options at related info object(RSD1, hierarchy tab, select with hierarchies) maintenance level.
For example: info object - 0GL_ACCOUNT and you need hierarchy structure on gl account.
For that we need to have hierarchy data source and will load data from ecc.
Later we can develop reports on gl account in hierarchy fashion.
On what object infoo bject you want create hierarchy report and have loaded hierarchy data?
Thanks

Problems about query filter (BEx).

Hello there,
I have some problems about query filter (BEx).
I have master data and I want to use attribute in this master data to dynamic filter in query(BEx).
But this attribute is key figure. I can't done it now. TT
Is this possible? If yes, could anyone advise how this is to be done?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
In BEx there is option as 'Exceptions' & 'Conditions'. If you go in condition, you can specify range for key figure output. This is either predefined or by user selection. You create the condition as per your requirement & it will show you filtered data.
How to create conditions you will find easily on this site.
You can create as many conditions as no of filters you want. You can create these at query level also at report output level.

How to create @prompt filter at universe level for my Webi reports

Dear all,
I am using BO XI 3.1 SP3 with SAP BW 7.0.
I have created an open[big] query based on a multiprovider for my OLAP universe.
OBJECTIVE: to create LOV prompts for Calender year, for my webi reports, which takes 2010 as input then offsets the input year and then shows Gross sales for the prompt year [2010], 2009 & 2008.
ISSUE: if 2010 is selected in webi prompt filter, then it doesn't display any data for any other year, lets say gross sales for 2009.
ALTERNATIVE: i tried to create a prompt filter in the universe with this syntax,
<FILTER KEY="@Select(Calendar year\Calendar year).[TECH_NAME]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="InList"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Enter year','N',,Mono,Free,Not_Persistent)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
it worked fine. but i also want to create a measure or dimension which subtracts 1 from the above filter and return a result with a previous year.
e.g
PROMPT: 2010
PROMPT-1: 2009
Universe structure
[TIME]                         class
[Calender year]        class
     [Calender year]     dimension ( type:string)
Please guide me with correct procedure and syntax.

masood44 ,
I think you should just prompt for year and capture and use the selection at the webi report level.
say you have calendar year(convert it into numeric) prompt at webi level. say user selects 2010 capture it in a variable var1:userresponse('enter year'). then create a variABLE (var2) with formula :
if(isPromptAnswered('enter year')='yes';([year] where year inlist(var1;var1-1;var1-2);null)
build your report with var2 and gross income
Thanks,
Karthik
