Currency translation for a restricted key figure in Query designer

Dear Experts,
In my query i am using a restricted Keyfigure (ZRKF1 which is reusable). I have to change the currency translation key of the restricted Key Figure from zcur1 to zcur2. I am not able to edit zrkf1 Currency translation in the properties( It is in gray colour) ,while i can do it for a normal keyfigure. if i edit zrkf1 then other queries will be affected. How should i solve this? Can i copy and paste the zrkf1 to zrkf2 in order to use zrkf2 with currency translation zcur2 in my query ? How can i coy and paste restricted key figure?
Thanks,
Riya

Hello Riya
I think you can't change the currency transaltion type for RKF... to change it in RKF just make the changes in the KF which you have used in RKF....
If you don't want to change the CURR translation type in KF1 than copy it paste it (KF2)and change in that KF2...now u can use KF2 in restricted KF...
Thanks

Regarding currency translation for Display attribute(key figure)

Hi Gurus,
How can i do currency conversion for MATERIAL COST(key figure) ,which is Display Attribute of MATERIAL...
thanks advancely.......
CHANDRA

Hi,
You can create the currency conversion type in the T code RSCURR.
Here are the steps...
1.     Transaction for creating currency translation type is RSCURR
2.     Choose the Exchange rate, Source currency, Target Currency and the Time reference in the respective tabs.
3.     In the query definition choose the Currency Conversion Key in the properties of the Key-figure.

How to copy restricted key figures in query designer ?

hi,
i have created a query in query designer (BI 7.0).
How can i copy existing restricted key figures ? i can't find anything. i always have to create a new one, and then i have to do all the things like 'details of selection' etc.... manually. that CANNOT be, there MUST be a way to copy those key figures.
any ideas ?
best regards, Martin

Hi Martin,
Restricted key figures can be stored on the infoprovider basis . For which right click on the key figure (left hand side pane ), Select the necessary key figure and assign the restriction through characteristics combination, and give it a restriction and save it . Next tiem when you create query on the same info provider it should appear in the left hand side as readymade reusable piece .
Hope that helps.

Restricted Key Figure in Query Designer

Hi,
I have defined a Input-Variable on the Characteristic 0PURCH_ORG (Purchasing Org.) in the Query Designer.
This Variable is Mandator and represents "Selection Option". Means, the user has to give the Input-Varaible for ex. 0010...0011.
Now my requirement is to define a restriced key figure where these Purchasing Org. from Input-Variable must exclude
in the restriced key figure. I cannot exclude the Input-Varaible in restriced Key Figure as it represents "Selection Option".
I tried to define a Customer-Exit Variable (Selection Option) on the Characteristic 0PURCH_ORG which should exclude the Input-Variable.
But the ABAP-Code for Customer-Exit Variable doesn't work.
Any clue, how I can solve this problem?
Thanks

Hi Moha Nan,
A variable of the type selection option can not be excluded therefore a variable exit is your only option. What is the current ABAP you have written and why doesn't it work? Maybe we can find the issue with the coding.
You need one variable of the type selection option and another one to read the first variable and reverse the option sign (from include to exclude).

Alex.

Currency Translation with a Calculate Key Figure

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with applying currency translation in BEX/Query Designer on a Calculated Key Figure?
I have a need for a calculated key figure to be converted to a target currency of USD (which is already defined via RRC1). I also need the Results Row to display the summation in USD.
Currently, my calculated key figure displays two currencies (MYR and USD) and an incorrect summation of both currencies.
Here is how I have defined my calculated key figure:
NODIM ( 'Consumption (STOs)' ) * NDIV0 ( 'Material Source Plant Cost' / NODIM ( 'Source Plant Price Unit' ) )
I am multiplying a quantity field by amount field and then dividing by a price per unit field. I have applied NODIM on the other fields so that the amount field will retain it's properties.
Running this query through transaction RSRT and clicking on the Generate Report button, I get the following message:
"<b>Currency translation cannot be carried out for element 20 (my calculated key figure). Element 20 neither contains a Basic key figure nor a variable with type Amount. For this reason, you cannot and do not need to perform a currency translation</b>."
From the above message, I must be setting my calculated key figure incorrectly.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Hau

Hello Ajeet and N Ganesh,
Thank-you for your help. I verified that the dimensions of my key figure 'Material Source Plant Cost' was of type 0AMOUNT, so that was not the issue.
The issue was in the error message that was returned when I pressed the Generate Report button in RSRT. Essentially, currency conversions in BEX can only be performed on basic key figures or simple replacement path variables.
I can perform the currency translation on a SIMPLE calculated key figure that contains only the replacement path variable (where 'Material Source Plant Cost' is an attribute of my master data characteristic ZMAT_SRC). However, I found that I cannot perform the currency translation on COMPLEX calculated key figures, like in my example above.
To get around this currency translation issue and as suggested by the error message, I created a SIMPLE calculated key figure for replacement path variable 'Material Source Plant Cost' and performed the currency translation. The problem with this solution is that while I get my currency translation, I also get a calculated key figure that is aggregated, according to the query layout.
To get around the aggregation issue, I also created a dummy counter as a master data attribute (of ZMAT_SRC) to capture the aggregation. I assign a value of 1 to this dummy counter/master data attribute in the update rules to my ZMAT_SRC infoobject.
I then divide my new (aggregated) calculated key figure for 'Material Source Plant Cost' by the dummy counter (which is also aggregated). Essentially, I divided the aggregated replacement path variable by the scaling factor. The result is that I get a new calculated key figure that has been translated into the target currency and in the correct scaling factor. I can use the new calculated key figures in the above formula; regardless of the report is rolled-up.
Again, thanks for your help. It gave me the pieces to solve this puzzle.

Building a new Cube Vs Restricted Key figure in Query - Performance issue

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a OPEX restricted key figure in Query. The problem is that the key figure should be restricted to about 30 GL Accounts and almost 300 Cost centers.
I do not know if this might cause performance issue in the query. At the moment, I am thinking of creating a new OPEX cube and load only those 30 GL Accounts, 300 cost centers and Amount. and include OPEX in multiprovider in order to get OPEX
amount in the report.
whats the best solution - creating OPEX restricted key figure or OPEX cube ?
thanks,
Bhat

I think you should go for cube as all the restrcited key figure are calculated at OLAP runtime so it will definitely affect the query performance.There are a lot of costcenter for which you have to restrict it so definitely during the runtime of query it will take a lot of time to fetch tha data from infoprovider.Its better that you create a cube with the restrictions and include it in MP.It will definitely save a lot of time during query execution

Text Variable for a Restricted Key Figure

Hi,
I have a version comparison query three Restricted Key figures based on 0QUANTITY each of which are restricted by Version, Value Type and Fiscal Year. All three are in my query columns. The users select 3 sets of version, value type and fiscal year in the selection for comparison.
They want to see the text of the version they have selected as the description of the column. How can i achieve this with text variables on these 3 Restricted Key Figures which have multiple restrictions. Please advise
Thanks
Rashmi.

Hi Rashimi,
As u said this can be acheived by text Variable,
I have adoubt here,are there THREE columns for Quantity or just ONE column with three Restrictions.
In case it is three Columns then u can go with Text variables else probably u may have to populate it in three Columns and by using Workbook you can combine them in one Column.....i.e One column with all the restrictions -text.
And here is how u create a text variable.....
Create text Variables,For Example ,say 0FISCALYEAR.
1)Right Click on the 0FISCALYEAR and Create a input Variable say YFISCYEAR and save.
2)If ur using 0FISCALYEAR in the RKF,then drag both the 0FISCALYEAR and KF say 0QUANTITY in the new selection.
3)After the Description of the RKF there is a = sign click on that to VIEW and CREATE Text variable.
4)Create New Variable ,enter the tech name(say YFYEAR) and dscription and in the same screen choose type Replacement PAth after which u will get a set of infobjects.
5)choose 0FISCALYEAR
6)In the Next screen choose the Tech name of the Input variabble(0FISCALYEAR) and save.
7)In the description of the RKF ,type as 0FISCALYEAR &YFYEAR&.
Check this too .....

Creating a resticted Key Figure in Query Designer (3.5)

Hello, hope your all well!
I'm trying to create a restricted key figure that's related to the publication date of one of our titles.
I've tried to create a Structure that shows one text result if the publication date is the same or greater than 01.01.2008 and another if it's less. However, in my results it seems to be bringing two results for each line, one with each text result.
Could anyone point my in the right direction?
Have a fantastic weekend,
Rhys

Sorry, I'm new at this; what do you mean by inputs?
I'm trying to create something in the query designer that displays one text result if the result is lower than a certain number and another if higher,
Hope that makes sense.
Take care!
Rhys

How to search for Key Figures in Query Designer 7.0?

Hi,
in BEx Query Designer 3.5 there was a search function to look after key figures or characteristics. Is there a search function in Query Designer 7.0?
Thanks.

Hi,
QD 3.x version has "Find" option to identify the KF and Characteristics,but the same is not available with QD 7.x.
Reason could be:
With QD 7.x,just by typing the starting letters of KF or Characteristics by Keyboard itself,it will highlight you the entries.Hence there is no explicit Find option provided.But in case of QD 3.x,they gave it explicitely.

I would like to know:
1) How these CKF are represented in ABAP on the system and where I can find them - some database table ?
2) If I want the description to be available in many languages how can I handle this ?
Thanks a lot

Aggregation ---Settings of KF(Key Figure) in Query Designer

Hi,
What is the impact of the following setting in the query result
Query Designer>KF Definition>Edit-->Aggregation (TAB)
Exception Aggregation-->MAximum and
Ref Characterstic
Thanks

Hi,
To enable the calculation of key figures, the data from the InfoProvider has to be aggregated to the detail level of the query and formulas may also need to be calculated. The system has to aggregate using multiple characteristics. In regard to a selected characteristic, the system can aggregate with another rule for each key figure (exception aggregation).

Currency Translation Key for Restricted Key Figure

Hello Everyone,
I created a Restricted Key Figure and want to assign a currency translation key and the field is greye out.
How do you assign a currency translation to a restricted key figure?
Thanks so much,

Hi Colleen,
Did you first assign the Currency COnversion Key (box on left). Then the Target Currency box will be enabled.
Hope this helps...

Can't change a Restricted Key Figure technical name in QD BEx 7.1.0

A few days ago I created a new Restricted Key Figure in Query Designer and it was autopopulated with a default technical name. So I immediately changed it to 'ZRNPVORDINTFACTPPP_FY'.
Now, today, I realized that the 'F' in the technical name is a typographical error and I need to remove it. I clicked the Restricted Key Figure on the left from within the list and clicked the Change/Display pencil icon in the properties window, but the Technical Name field is still greyed out. Also tried right clicking and selecting Edit, but same problem.
Would removing all instances of where the figure is used in the query and other queries allow me to change it? Could it be a user rights issue?
As always, thanks for the help!

Hi,
After creating a RKF , you cannot change its technical name.
If the RKF has a lot of restrictions and creation of another similar RKF is a big process ,
you can create a copy of the same through transaction RSZC.
In RSZC , give the source and target cube name as the name of the multiprovider on which your query is built,
select restricted keyfigure ,click on execute , in the list which comes after execute find your KF 'ZRNPVORDINTFACTPPP_FY'
and click on transfer/copy option available.Change the technical name as you want and then click on execute. A similar keyfigure with the desired technical name will be created in query designer ,global keyfigures .
Replace the same with your Old keyfigure in report.
