Creating the Key Figure in Demand Planning

Hello
I have a Issue , where a user wants to know what is the Remaining Allocation for a Planning Material with the Wild Characteristic (&&&&&&) .
Presently we have 2 Key figures Namely:
AEMENGE-Incoming Orders Qty and KCQTY- Prod. Alloc.Qty corrsponding to Info Objects Z0CTK0062-Consumed Allocation Qty and Z0CTK0063-Total Allocation Qty.
This gives us the Total Allocation and Total Consumed Allocation and these key figures we are using in the Macro and difference gives us the remaining Allocation. But now the requirement is to find the remaining Allocation for the Wild Characteristic (&&&)
Eg : Total allocation for Planning Material : X is Say 15000 Kgs
We have allocation for Planning material and Sold to Party Level
Say Material is Sold to 2 Parties A & B and Remaining C is not for any Parties and represented as (&&&)
Say XA - 8000, XB-3000 , X (&&&) - 4000.
The Consumed allocation is XA-5000, XB-2500 and X (&&&)-3000
The system gives the Remaining allocation as 4500 (XA-3000,XB-500 and X(&&&)-1500)
We want to Display the Remaining Allocation of X(&&&) - 2500
along with total Remaining allocation of 4500
Can we have any Key figure to Capture this Data.
Please help in this regards

We can always create macros that checks for certain characteristic value before doing calculation. (check the IOBJNM_VALUE() macro function)
I am not sure if thats what you are looking at. A planning area key figure can be created to capture this information. If you are looking at something to work across different levels, I am afraid you would need to go through user exit macro route.

How to create a key figure in SNP plannignbook which generate FA type order

Hello
trying to create a Key Figure in SNP planning book which generates FA type orders
could kindly suggest how to do it?
thanks
elena

Hi,
You would be having different key figures in SNP. The type of orders that you see in Key figure is driven by type of categories or category group that you assign in planning area to each key figure. You can modifiy these cateogry groups in IMG settings.
When you manually create a forecast through a report then automatically you will see those orders in key figures where you have assigned the category FA.
Hope this helps.

Adding new key figures to DP planning area

I am using APO DP.
When adding new key figures to a planning area, is there any way of avoiding having to deinitialise and then re initialise the planning area?
Thanks for any advice on this...

First of, let us know which version of DP are you using.
If you are using 7.0, all you need to do is right click on your planning area and select Change Keyfigure setting and you should be able to update the key figures there.
The below is from SAP help for SAP APO 7.0, you should be able to add the key figure without deinitializing the planning area.
Key Figure Settings
Here you can change the properties of the key figures of a planning area, if the planning area has already been initialized. You can also add or delete key figures. However, you can only delete key figures that are no longer used in planning books, data views, macros, or demand forecasts. You can find out in which objects a specific key figure is used with the where-used list.

How to create Variables for the Key Figures

Hi All,
How to create Variables for the Key Figures
Thanks
Bhaskar

Hi,
It is not possible to create the variables on Key figures directly. But we can create a formula variable with processing type 'User Entry' ,SO that the user entered value can be used in the calculations of the query.

Fiscal year in the columns outside the key figure structure

Dear Experts
I have a report requirement to show the keyfigures in the columns from year 1 to year 10 and in each year there are 4 keyfigures each restricted to 1 quarter for 4 quarters.
So, there are too many keyfigures to create.
I am using fiscal year in the columns outside the Key figure structure containing the keyfigures restricted at each of 4 quarters.
So, when the report displays, all the 10 years will automatically be displayed.
The problem is one of the 4 quarter level keyfigures needs to be restricted by calendar year.
How can I read what is the fiscal year for each column at runtime so that I can reference this value to determine the calendar year ?
As you know, each FY spans 2 Calendar Years. So, i need to restrict this on the 4th keyfigure by calendar year but while having the FY outside the keyfigure structure i can get all the FY, I am not sure how to access this value at runtime so that eg.
if FY for column 1 is 2010, i can set calendar year to be 2010 to 2011.
Hope you can give me some clues.
Thanks you Gurus!
Best regards
John

Dear Sunnybt
Copy Riyes, I find your response interesting. Please could you elaborate your idea of using condition in more detail.
Sorry for my late response.
Allow me to clarify my statement, which you are right, is unclear.
By :
"if the current QuarterFY is less than the current QuarterFY"
I mean :
eg. user enters FY range : 2009 to 20NN (eg. 2017)
KF_column1_FY2009_Q1______KF_column2_FY2009_Q2____KF_column3_FY2009_Q3______KF_column_FY2009_Q4______KF_column_FY2010_Q1______KF_column2_FY2010_Q2____KF_column3_FY2010_Q3______KF_column_FY2010_Q4_____KF_column_FY_NNNN_Q1
For each column, where the FY can be any year range entered by user,
the Text Description of the Column should show either 'Actual' or 'Plan' based on what is the current FY Quarter at runtime.
If the FY Quarter (eg. 1st column is 200101) is before current FY Quarter (i.e 201103), then the Description of this column should be "Actual" , else "Plan".
In my current design, I am unable to use customer exit text variable to meet this requirement.
So, I like to check with you for fresher ideas.
If not , I would use a workbook, which I am avoiding as the user needs to drilldown and I believe drilldown is not possible in workbooks where report layout needs to be rigid or cell positions fixed. Of course, unless there is a way out of this which I do not know.
Best regards

How to create Basic Key Figure, Key Figure and Characteristic

Hello Gurus,
I have copied a standard layout of KP06, named it as a Z- layout and made changes to it, like defined the plan data upload field as Object Currency enabled.
However I want to add a Z-Field , tax holiday unit as a column to this layout which I am not being able to do. The reason is when I go to Insert a new element from Edit > Element > Insert Element and click on 'Key figure with Characteristics' I do not get the Z-Field as a key figure.
I want to define the Z-field as a key figure, so that I can add it as an element.
Would be really nice of you if you can let me know the t-code/menu path to do that.
Regards.

Hello Gurus,
I wanted to share this information with you, hoping this will help you to help me.
I also tried to create a Key Figure in t-code GS32. In the table I mention --> FAGLFLEXR and hit enter. It says no Key figure has been defined for FAGLFLEXR. Then I put the cursor on the 'Reference Entry'and click on copy. Then give the name of the Key Field I want to create.
'Create Key Figure' dialog box appears. When I input the 'Row Text' 'Column Text' and click enter, I am getting an error 'The basic key figure entered for table FAGL is not defined'. I go back and do an F4 on 'Basic Key Figure' field, then I do not get any options.
I would be highly grateful if you can let me know how to create this 'Basic Key Figure' for table FAGLFLEXR.

Key figure display in planning book with respect to Time bucket profile

Hi,
I am loading a key figure to planning area from the info cube for the current month. When I review the key figure in planning book with monthly time bucket profile it shows 85 for the current month. In the same planning book with weekly bucket profile, it shows 55 from the current week and future weeks and the remaining 30 goes into the past weeks of the current month.
How to make the total quantity 85 to show in the current and future weeks only.
thanks and regards
Murugesan

Hi Murugesan,
Within the Planning Area, the data is stored at the lowest level granularity that you maintain in storage bucket profile. Then during display, system will decide what data to show depending on what kind of time bucket profile you use in the planning view, and the time based disaggregation that you maintain for Key Figure.
In this below case, what time characteristic do you have in cube? Is it date, week or month?
If it's date, check how much KF data is maintained on the dates which belong to week which has days both in this month/last month e.g. if I talk about Dec 2011, how much data is stored 1,2,3 & 4 th of Dec, 2011.
This data would appear in Dec in monthly view, but in week, it would appear in the week starting 28th November.
If data is maintained in cube in weeks, then you need to calculate how time based disaggregation would show it to you in months.
If it's months, then you would need to find out how much data would go to the days in the past week of the month.
The time based disaggregation may be causing you some issues, but in that case, I would not expect 30 out of 85 to go in the past week, unless you have data in cube in days.
Data shown in weekly view for week starting 28th Nov should ideally be a small proportion of 85, unless you are using a time stream/fiscal year variant, due to which most of December is in holidays. The only other exception I can think of is that you have data in teh days mentioned above.
It would be best to help the business understand this disaggregation logic, rather than thinking of manipulating the data to shift to a later week.
If this logic doesn't explain your situation, then please provide the date/week/month at which you have data in cube, and what quantity.
Thanks - Pawan

Select the Key Figures to be presented in a query before execute the it

Hi,
I want to select(through checkbox) the Key Figures to be presented in a query before executing the query. I'm creating BEX queries and web templates (I'm working on BEX 7.0).
I haven't found clear post about this so if you have implemented something like this please help me and share your solution.
Kind regards,
Ana

Hi,
If you set a property of your KF as "Hide and can be shown", you will get a filter option for these KFs after executing the report in the navigational block of web report.
When you click on that filter, you will get the list of KFs, then you can select the desired KFs using check box.

Can we filter the Key figure ( by not using Bex Conditions)

Hello Friends,
I have a requirement in which I am passing the result of one query "A" to another query "B" ( using replacement path). Also there is a requirement to filter the keyfigure of the query "A"
Problems I face:
1) If I use Conditions, it does'nt filter the actual rows from the info cube, but just the query result
2) Hence when I pass the query result of "A" to query "B", it sends more records which I dont need.
Question:
Hence is it possible to filter the keyfigure values at the database level?
Thanks... Hope some one will guide me.....................

Hi,
I've had a similar problem in the past, not specifically for a replacement path but because the number of rows returned by the query was too great to use conditions. In the end what I did was create a characteristic char version of the key figure that was loaded from the same source as the key figure. You then effectively have a key figure that can be filtered in the same way as a normal characteristic.
Hope this helps.

Creating Restricted Key Figure

Hello all,
When creating a Restricted Key figure do we need to drag and drop both the key figure and also the characteristic?

If you are creating a Restricted key figure by right clicking on the 'Key figures' section in the Infoprovider panel to the left in Query designer then you need to explicitly drag both key figure and then all the characteristics on which you want to restrict this keyfigure.
On the other hand if you are restricting a existing key figure in the Columns section, then you just need to drag the characteristics.

Help in creating Calculated Key figure

Hi,
I have a simple question please help me out.
I am creating a calculated key figure, in the formulae i have to use the = sign.
But i cudnt find any function related to put the = sign
i just have to wrtite
=KF
But cudnt find the function for = sign.
plz help...

Hi,
to create this formula u have to do 2 steps:
1) Create a formula for KF1:
KF >=200 result 1 , if the key figure is <200 the result is 0
In KF options "display" mark KF as not displayed
2) Create a 2nd formula:
KF1KF result: if KF is >=200 its calculated as 1200 ;
if KF is <200 for expample 150 ist calculated as 0*150
Hope it helps

Please let me know how to see the details related to the Key figure used

Hi,
Basic key figure BHSL-I belonging to the table GLPCT is used in the one of the reports created using the Report Painter.
Please let me know how to see the details of the BHSL-I key figure.
Details I am looking for is, how the field BHSL-I is getting populated I mean from which field/fields combinations and what is the formulae involved in the calculation of the key figure.
Please let me know if any documentation exists about the key figures.
Thanks in Advance.
Madhuri.

What model year is it? If older than a 2011 model, and even some early 2011 models, you will need the original install discs that came with it.
If older than a 2011 model then you use the Online Internet Recovery system to erase the drive, format it Mac Extended and then reinstall OS X.
To access that online recovery system at startup hold down the Command + Option/Alt + r key and keep them held down until you see a globe on the screen.

Input Enabled Query - Web Template - Not able to change the key figure.

Hello IP Gurus,
This is a simple question .
I have input enabled query and for all the KF's , I selected the radio button - data can be changed using user entries or planning functions , Equal Distribution and No disagrregation.
I attached the query to a web template.
When I execute the template I am not able to enter or change the key figures.
Do I have to use any planning function to do that in the web template or I am missing any configuration . Please let me know how to change or enter the key figures
Thanks
Senthil

HI Senthil,
Please ensure that u have enabled the property " start Query in changed Mode". This u can find it in the query properties under the advanced tab.
For the Input readiness this alone is not enough.You have to use all the charecteristics that u have in the multiprovider or the aggregation level over which the query is built.
regards.

On what occasions do the key figures become attributes of characteristics?

hi all,
On what occasions do the key figures become attributes of characteristics? can anyone explain me with an example.
regds
hari

Hi,
When we create key figures also we can define the keyfigre as attribute, in the additional poperties tab by selecting attribute check box.
(or)
Once we created KF and activated, the same can be placed in Char attribute tab. In the Char creation, we can assign attributes as per our requirement. So the attributes may be be char/kf.

Ramakrishna
