Currency conversion type by customer exit variable doesn't work

Hi all.
In my query I need amounts by quarter, applying quarters last date rates as currency conversion.
Query has Year parameter. Based on this parameter, by customer exits I calculate every quarters last date and use them as currency conversion types.
The problem is that query DOESN'T APPLY currency conversions!
I checked TCURR table - currency conversions do exist for applied days
I checked my customer exits - the date calculation works fine
I suppose where is something wrong in query processes (customer exits/currency conversions) sequence before running it.
Someone knows anything 'bout that?

Check these docs.. and check again.

Customer exit variable doesn't work

Hi,
I tried to create customer exit for my query but iam not getting the right result.
My requirement is to create a Key figure variable that displays Q1 - Q4 based on fiscal year/period (001.2008) entered by the user.
steps I have taken
1. created variable MD_VAR for fiscal year/period
2. created key figure variable MD_VAR_KF where I have the description as Q1 .
and the result I have is Q&MD_VAR_KF& but I would like to get Q1
my code
data: lv_month type n length 3.
CASE I_VNAM.
WHEN 'MD_VAR_KF'. "KF variable
IF I_STEP = 2.
LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE WHERE VNAM ='MD_VAR'.
lv_month = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW+6(3).
IF lv_month = '001' OR lv_month = '002' OR lv_month = '003'.
L_S_RANGE-LOW = '1'.
ELSEIF lv_month = '004' OR lv_month = '005' OR lv_month = '006'.
L_S_RANGE-LOW = '2'.
ELSEIF lv_month = '007' OR lv_month = '008' OR lv_month = '009'.
L_S_RANGE-LOW = '3'.
ELSEIF lv_month = '010' OR lv_month = '011' OR lv_month = '012'.
L_S_RANGE-LOW = '4'.
ELSE.
L_S_RANGE-LOW = 'wrong values'.
ENDIF.
L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'EQ'.
APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
ENDLOOP.
ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
What did I do wrong and how do I achieve my requirement
thanks

When you variable result displays the variable name inside &...& means the variable is not deriving a value.
Make sure the variable &MD_VAR_KF& is defined as a Text variable and as an Exit variable. Otherwise it won't process it in the exit.
If Fiscal Period is dependent on Fiscal Year Variant (I can't remember off-hand) then the variant key will preceed the Fiscal Period value in the variable, and the value is always processed based on internal format YYYYMMM. So your substring will be +6(3) if FYV dependent, and +4(3) otherwise.
You have focused the issue on the code but didn't clarify how you defined the variable itself. If these settings are correct then you need to debug the code to see what part works and what doesn't, then provide more details.

USER Exit variable doesn't work in BSP

Hi gurus
I made a characteristic variable with user-exit replacement type.
It get the user id from sy-uname. It works well in Gui version. But when I execute the layout in BSP (WI), it doesn't work.
But If i do the hard-coding the line from (l_eto_charsel-low   = uid.) to (l_eto_charsel-low   = '4012121'.) it works well.
The following is my coding.
Please give me any comment.
CLEAR eto_charsel.
DATA l_eto_charsel TYPE upc_ys_charsel.
DATA uid type c. "(also I have tried 'data uid type sy-uname')
uid = sy-uname.
l_eto_charsel-chanm = i_chanm.
l_eto_charsel-seqno = '0001'.
l_eto_charsel-sign = 'I'.
l_eto_charsel-opt   = 'EQ'.
l_eto_charsel-low   = uid. ++++>
INSERT l_eto_charsel INTO TABLE eto_charsel.
ENDFUNCTION.

Hi,
Your patch level seems to be OK.
pls. try the declaration as 'Data: uid like syst-uname' or you could try directly assigning the sy-uname.
Try to debug and see the content of the sy-uname, when it hits this code.

Currency conversion type with variable for target currency

Hi,
I use a currency conversion type with a bex variable for target currency in a query in order to convert a Key Figure. It works fine but instead of short text description there's the technical description of the variable in the selection screen. How can i change the description of the variable ?
For information, in the bex, we can't see the variable in "variable sequence". I use BI 7.0
François.

Hi,
The problem was that in the maintenance of the currency translation type the option Target Currency from Variable was checked. As a consequence in the properties of our key figure the drop-down-list Target Currency was set to from variable with no chance of changing it (it was grey).
What we can do was to choose the option Target Currency Selection with Translation instead of Target Currency from Variable. Now, in the properties of the key figure we can choose the variable in the dropdown-list Target Currency and tick the option Variable Entry. As a result, the variable shows up in the query properties and we can change its arrangement.

Siva Patil.

Custome Exit Variable Not prepopulating Parameter of CRE Report

Hi
I am using a customer exit varibale to pre populate a parameter in a Bex query I have created. When I run the bex query the customer exit variable populates the parameter just as it is supposed to. However when I use the bex query in Crystal Reports for enterprise the customer exit variable does not pre populate the parameter. Is there something I need to do to make sure that CRE recognises the customer exit variable or does CRE not recognises them? If it doesn't recognise them is it possible to create CRE level Customer Exit Variable?
Many Thanks in advance
Neil

Hi Alun
Thanks but I'm in BW so Stored procedures are not really an option on this one. I suppose my primary question is, is there a reason that Customer Exit Variable is not working as it is creating a lot of difficulties by not populating the parameters in the same way it does in the bex query I am using to develop my Crystal report.
Thanks
Neil

Error creating Customer Exit variable, please help

Hi Experts,
This is the scenario, I need to obtain the convertion rate from the table TCURR in order to convert several currencies to USD, so I created a Customer Exit variable that gets the Period and based on that obtains the conversion rate for the last day of the given month from TCURR, the problem is when I created the Formula Variable to get the value from the Customer exit variable I got the following error:
'ZVARREGEXIT' ALREADY EXISTS; SELECT A DIFFERENT NAME.
But in not using that name anywhere on my variables creation, Im doing something wrong? How can I check wheres is that variable being used.
Ideas, comments are always welcome and appreciated.
Regards.

Hi Ed,
Open Admin Workbench (RSA1) and choose Transport Connection --> Object Types --> Query Elements --> Variable --> Select Objects. Find the variable of interest and transfer it back to the main screen, then right-click and choose 'Display Description'. That will show you a "where used" list of queries, workbooks, etc.
Next, you can use the previous technique to open one of the queries, find the variable in the query, and determine which InfoObject it is associated with.
Hope this helps!

Saurabh

Customer Exit Variable in cell definition in BEx

Hi,
I have defined a query with a Structure in Row and Key Figures in column.
The result of query should look like this:
Fiscal/Year Period | Quantity per month | Quantity cumulative
011.2010 (Variable Offset Value -3) | 5 | 5
012.2010 (Variable Offset Value -2) | 6 | 11
001.2011 (Variable Offset Value -1) | 7 | 7
002.2011 (Variable Single Value, Manual Input) | 8 | 15
"Quantity cumulative" is defined as follows:
Quantity cumulative (002.2011) = Quantity 001.2011 + Quantity 002.2011
Quantity cumulative (001.2011) = Quantity 001.2011
Quantity cumulative (012.2010) = Quantity 011.2010 + Quantity 012.2010
Quantity cumulative (011.2010) = Quantity 011.2010
"Fiscal/Year Period" and "Quantity per month" are OK. But I have problem to define the key figrue "Quantity cumulative".
I have defined a Customer Exit Variable on Reference Characteristic "Fiscal/Year Period". Moreover I have also defined cell definition to define each individual cell for key figrue "Quantity cumulative" restricted by Customer Exit Variable.
The Quantity cumulative (002.2011) and Quantity cumulative (001.2011) are calculated correct. But it doesn't work for 012.2010 and 011.2010 (because of previous year).
I would be helpful if you can give some hints.
Thanks

Hi,
try to use this trick with an IF condition in you customer exit. Calling 'var1' the manual input of:
data: month_difference TYPE N.
month_difference = 'var1'+4(3) - 4.
IF month_difference >= 0.
DO the classic code which you have already used.
ELSE month_difference < 0.
DO the replace concatenating manually 'var1'(4) and the single month.
ENDIF.
Hope it helps.
Best regards.

Error Message : " No value could be determined for Customer Exit Variable "

Hello BI Experts ,
I have created a "ZYTD_PERIOD" Customer Exit Variable Interval Mandatory and ready for input check mark removed.
The reference character is '0FISCPER' .
I want to have YTD figures when the user enter single Fiscal Year Period for variable 0P_FPER.
So I have written below code in SE37 : EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001 and include program : ZXRSRU01
==================================================================
case i_vnam.
              WHEN 'ZYTD_PERIOD'.
              IF I_STEP = 2.
              LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE WHERE VNAM = '0P_FPER'.
              CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
              L_S_RANGE-LOW0(4) = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW0(4).
              L_S_RANGE-LOW+4(3) = '001'.
              L_S_RANGE-HIGH = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW.
              L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
              L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'BT'.
              APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
              EXIT.
              ENDLOOP.
              ENDIF.
===================================================================
After that I use this 'ZYTD_PERIOD' variable in the query .
Also I have used the variable 0P_FPER in another structure.
When I execute the query by entering the value of 0P_FPER as 010.2009 or any other value ,
I am getting below error message ,
*No value could be determined for variable ZYTDPERIOD*_
Below is details of this Error message ,
Note that I have proper Master and Text data for 0CO_AREA and 0COMP_CODE loaded into BI.
=======================================================================
Diagnosis
This error diagnosis is specific only to the variables 0P_FVAEX or 0P_CTPCA !
Termination message BRAIN 632 appears:
Could not determine value for variable 0P_FVAEX (or 0P_CTPCA).
System Response
1. Operation method of SAP-Exit-Variables 0P_FVAEX or 0P_CTPCA
With queries from the CO application, both SAP-Exit-Variables look for an entry for 'controlling area'. With this controlling area from the selection screen, the SAP-Exit-Variables program reads the attributes for InfoObject 0CO_AREA (controlling area).
With queries from the FI application, the SAP Exit Variable 0P_FVAEX looks for an entry for 'company code'. With this company code from the selection screen, the SAP Exit Variables program reads the attributes for InfoObject 0COMP_CODE (Company Code).
0P_FVAEX determines the fiscal year variant (attribute 0FISCVARNT) from the attributes for 0CO_AREA (CO queries) or 0COMP_CODE (FI queries). 0P_CTPCA determines the currency type of the profit center local currency (attribute 0CURTP_PCA) from the attributes for 0CO_AREA.
2. Cause of Error
The attributes for the controlling area (InfoObject 0CO_AREA) or company code (InfoObject 0COMP_CODE) were not loaded into the BW system, or the attributes for the controlling area are not active in the BW system.
Check whether this is the cause of the error in your BW system. Display the contents of table /bi0/mco_area or /bi0/mcomp_code using transaction se16.
Application CO:
Check whether the attributes 'fiscal year variant' (field FISCVARNT) and 'profit center local currency currency type' (field CURTP_PCA) are filled in the 'A' version (field OBJVERS) for the selected controlling area. If the fiscal year variant in the OBJVERS = 'A' is empty, then the error is with variable 0P_FVAEX. If the currency type of the profit center's local currency in OBJVERS = 'A' is empty, then the error is with variable 0P_CTPCA.
Application FI:
Check whether or not the attribute 'fiscal year variant' (field FISCVARNT) is filled in the 'A' version (field OBJVERS) for the selected controlling area. If the fiscal year variant is empty in OBJVERS= 'A', then the error is with variable 0P_FVAEX.
Procedure
Using InfoSource 0CO_AREA, load the attributes for the controlling area or company code into your BW system.
Afterwards, activate the attribute changes in your BW system. To do this, use transaction rsa1, path 'Tools > Hierarchy/Attribute changes', functions button 'InfoObject list'. Choose InfoObject 0CO_AREA or 0COMP_CODE from this list, and activate the attribute changes.

WAD Variable screen not displaying when using a customer exit variable

Hello,
I have a query which has 3 variables, one of which is of type customer exit and gets populated with a default value.
When I run this query on the web from within BEX it works fine, however when I run it within any BI7 web template the variable screen does not pop up. Of course if I remove or change the offending customer exit variable the variable screen pops up.
I have switched the display variable check-box to on, and it still doesn't work.
Is this a 'feature' of BI7?
Many thanks
Sarah

Fixed it myself by tweaking the URL....
Added &VARIABLE_SCREEN=X to the end of the url and the variable screen now pops up. Its not an ideal solution but it works.
Anyone have any better ideas?

Authorization (rsecadmin) with customer exit variable

Hello,
I need to maintain authorization on 0CALMONTH with a customer exit variable.
0CALMONTH is "authorization relevant"
I created a variable of type "customer exit" : ZVAR001 (this variable is OK, I checked its value in a query)
I created a new authorization object with 0CALMONTH = $ZVAR001.
When I run my query I have a message due to authorization error.
If I change my authorization object by replacing my variable ($ZVAR001) by a constant value I have no authorization problem.
I don't understand why...
Error logs don't help me to solve my problem : I have the following message "Message EYE007: You do not have sufficient authorization" and system just says I have "0CALMONTH I EQ $ZVAR001 " but doesn't precise values under variable ZVAR001
Thanks for your help

Indeed problem was in costumer exit because I used condition with "I_STEP". Since I have delete my condition I have no authorization problem with my variable....

Customer exit variables

Hello,
I have created two customer exit variables, although I'm not an ABAP expert. Both are calculated based on two optional variables selected by the user.
When running my query I get the message "Warning Value '' is too long for variable ZPERSTRT". I suppose that really means the value is empty while a value was expected. The type of this variable is 0DATE.
I try checking the code to examine how the value can be empty, and that results in a few questions some of you probably can answer.
Unfortunately, for complex reasons I have to program the customer exit variables in the development system, while testing them in the test system where I don't have access to the ABAP editor.
QUESTION 1
When finding the values of the other variables, I must be prepared to find them without a value. How can I know if they have a value or not? I've tried with the following code, which I suspect is not working quite as expected:
      LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range
        WHERE vnam = 'ZCALWINT'.
        IF loc_var_range-low <> ''.
          l_week0 = loc_var_range-low.
          l_flag = 1.
        ENDIF.
      ENDLOOP.
I later use l_flag to check if a value was found or not.
QUESTION 2
How is type conversion done in a statement like
date = string + 1
If string has the value "20071031", will 1 be added as a string (resulting in "200710311" which is then somehow converted to a date), like a number (resulting in "20071032" which is then somehow converted to a date) or like a date (resulting in "20071101")?
QUESTION 3
More type conversion. Would it be ok to concatenate year, month and day into a date variable, or should I always concatenate into a string which can then be converted to a date afterwards?
QUESTION 4
If the variable I want to read has an interval and not only a single value, is the only way to see this by checking the -high value? If this one has a value it is an interval, if not it is a single value? Or can I be sure the -opt value will be 'BT' if it's an interval?
Thanks and regards,
Christoffer

Anyone?
I'll award 10 points to the best overall answer and 6 points to answers which are first or best on one of the four questions.

BW Master Data for Customer Exit Variable Reference

Good day Experts,
I have several queries that I would like to remove the hard coding of values on to prevent yearly maintenance. In these queries there are two conditions each condition is on different key figures that is amount by year. The query is only to report on data that for the two amounts (separated by year) is greater than the specified values. I want to change the condition so the value is no longer hard coded so the query will role automatically as the time period changes. The year amount values that the condition will need to reference are not currently stored in our BW system. I would like to create master data that is maintained directly in the BW system for the amounts that a variable for the condition in the query can then access.
I know it can be set up as master data and then referenced through a customer exit variable but when I set up the master data if I do the Amount as a key figure I cannot maintain the key figure value for the master data manually in BW, if I set the Amount up as a numeric characteristic then I canu2019t directly use a decimal. Am I missing something in the key figure setup then referencing the key figure as an attribute of the year value or do I need to do it as a characteristic and use a conversion routine or something for data manipulation?
Can someone please give me some guidance to what the best way to do this is?
The data necessary master data for storage in BW is the YEAR and a single dollar value:
For Example:
Year          Amount
2009           101.50
2008          207.80
2007          807.40

I figured out that I can use an amount in the master data and maintain the amount manually as long as I use the amount with a currency instead of setting the currency in the key figure.

Customer Exit Variable on 0CO_AREA

Hello Experts,
I have a requirement to create a customer exit variable on 0CO_AREA to return values for 0CO_AREA based on the 0PROFIT_CTR which will be entered by user in a BW query. As CO_AREA is compounding on PROFIT_CTR, I am not sure if we can do it or not and if yes, how ?
I am not a good ABAPer so I will appreciate if some one give me more help in code writing as well..

Default value of BeX customer Exit variable not Displayed in WeBI??

Hello Experts,
We are stuck with a problem where WeBI report is created on top of BeX query and we are not able to see the default value of Bex Customer exit variable in WeBI run. Here is the complete scenario:
1. One restricted KF is created in BeX, restricted with Customer exit variable on net Due date. And this variable is mandatory, ready for input, and Default value in calculated is user exit as current Week's Monday.
2. So, by default KF data should be restricted to Monday of current week, if user does not change this value.
3. Now, WeBI report is created on top of this Bex query, and all is working fine, i.e. we are getting variable as Prompt in WeBI, but Default value is not shown while Running the Webi Report.
So, need your inputs on the same, if default values from BeX in WeBI is supported or not? If yes, why this is happening, and how to resolve it?
Please notice, the restrcition is in KF only, it is not a separate restrcition on Net Due date in Filter area or in Defualt area of BeX
and we are on SAP BW 7.1 and BOXI 3.1 SP4.
Regards,
Vipul

Hi,
See 1285993 - Support of Customer Exit Variables from BEx query into WebIntelligence via OLAP universe
WebI will prompt when executed, but the default values calculated by the user exit - do not appear.
Note: If the BEx variable has property 'ready for input' set / enabled, then its WebI prompt shows ok, but no default value appears.
Cause
This behaviour expected 'by design' (in the context of the product's current limitations) as explained in the online guide below:
Please refer to Chapter 7, page 44, document link here: http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir3/en/xi3_sap_olap_universes_en.pdf
Characteristic variable > processing type > Customer Exit is "Supported, without user entry"
--> This should be understood as meaning "User will not be shown a prompt"

Customer Exit variable and Filter routine in DTP does not works?

Hello Experts,
Does anyone know what might be the possible reason - A customer exit variable working fine on the OLAP side does not work in a DTP??
I have also tried to use the Filter routine, which does not give me the right results..I am trying to fetch a Fiscalyear period maintained in an infoObject as follows in my Filter routine..
ata: sel_period like /BIC/PZPARAM-/BIC/ZPARAMVAL.
DATA: zperiod type /BI0/OIFISCPER.
          SELECT SINGLE /BIC/ZPARAMVAL INTO sel_period
          FROM /BIC/PZPARAM
          WHERE /BIC/ZPARAM = 'ZPCA'
          AND objvers = 'A'.
          zperiod = sel_period.
data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
          read table l_t_range with key
               fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
          l_idx = sy-tabix.
          l_t_range-iobjnm = '0FISCPER'.
          l_t_range-fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
          l_t_range-sign = 'I'.
          l_t_range-option = 'EQ'.
          l_t_range-low = zperiod.
          if l_idx <> 0.
            modify l_t_range index l_idx.
          else.
            append l_t_range.
          endif.
          p_subrc = 0.
Please let me know if I am making any mistakes above..
Kind Regards,
Kadriks

Hi
1. CLEAR l_t_range-high. is missing in your code befor assigning values to l_t_range.
2. use simple append l_t_range after the l_t_range asisgnments. remove below code :
if l_idx 0.
modify l_t_range index l_idx.
else.
append l_t_range.
endif.
p_subrc = 0.
3. I dont think you need to assign infoobject.
4. Clear sel_period and zperiod is also missing
Hence your code should be :
data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
read table l_t_range with key
fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
CLEAR l_t_range-high.
l_idx = sy-tabix.
l_t_range-fieldname = 'FISCPER'.
l_t_range-sign = 'I'.
l_t_range-option = 'EQ'.
l_t_range-low = zperiod.
append l_t_range .
