Currency Translation for Calculated Key figures

Hello Friends I want to use the Currency Translation for Calculated Key figures.
But when I go to Query and go to conversion tab it is always greyed out. Does that mean we can set the fixed conversion type for calculated key figures. like ZSAD Total debit - credit -flow value.
What is the way to do fixed currency translation in query for calculated key figures.
All the below is done now just want to specify this in query but I can'nt since it is greyed out.
All the below is done
I have created a Currency Translation Type " FiscperConversion" "ZVHGR" now this has Exchange Rate Type from Variable "ZVARN" (Which is a variable single value manual input on 0RTYPE Infoobject for exchange rate.)
2. Now Currency Tab: Target Currency is selected from Variable placed in the Report. ZRPVAR.
3. Now the Variable Time Reference is used. Standard Infoobject 0FISCPER
which is beginning of period.

Hi soniya
Your calculated KF is result of some calculation ...so system will not allow u to do any translation on it...to get CT on CKF you should do it on base key figure...still if you wish to do then you can create a formula variable having processing type a customer exit...write code in cmod to rad exchange rate and multiply ur CKF by this formula variable....
Thanks

Currency Translation on Calculated Key Figure in BW7.0

I am trying to use a currency translation in BW7.0 on a calculated key figure. Unfortunately the options for this are greyed out in the conversions tab for the calculated key figure.
I took a simple example. I have a KF that is revenue. I put this KF in the query and I can specify the conversion for it.
I then took the same KF and put it as the only argument for a CKF. For this CKF whether it is local to the query or a global CKF, I cannot specify a currency conversion.
If I do the same experiment in the 3.5 design tool, I am able to specify the currency translation.
Is there some system setting that enables it in the 7.0 query designer?
Thanks.

Currency Translation for Restricted Key figure

We are in BI Content 351 and SP6. In the query, I create a restricted key figure for an amount KF, assign a currency translation using a conversion key and target currency, give a technical name and save. Everything is fine. However, when I drag the RKF to query column, the currency translation disappears. Has any one seen this before? Any pointers will be appreciated

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

Exception aggregation for calculated key figure

Is it possible to have exception aggregation for calculated key figure in BW 3.5? As per Note 1151857, it is possible, however this note applies to BI 7.0.
As per note 152638, it is possible in older version only simple ckfs like 'CKF = Base key figure'.
Is there any workaround to define exception aggregation for complex CKFs in BW 3.5?
My requirement is like this -
CKF = (sales quantity - forecast) %share (sales quantity).
Aggregation for CKF over time should be sum whereas, for all other characteristics calculation of CKF should be done after aggregation(normal scenario).
So, defining exception aggregation of CKF as 'Summation' over time should fulfil my requirement.
I can not use calculate result as 'summation' setting for CKF because of following design of report.
Report contains structure(characteristic)
Elements of structure are -
Last 3 months(April - June)
Last 3 months - 1 (Mar - May)
Last 3 months - 2 (Feb - Apr)
and so on...
When data is aggregated for each element of structure, base KFs will be aggregated and calculations will be done on that.
Changes in the backend are also not possible because, normal aggregation of CKF-alike in backend will be summation for all characteristics.
Is there any way in BW 3.5 to model such a scenario?
Thanks and Regards,
Anup Kulkarni

Sum of individual values of CKFs is not same as the Calculation on 'sum of basic key figures(result of basic key figures)'. - Yes, you are right.
I need to aggregate CKF over time as SUM. However, calculation for result of all other characteristics should be based on results of basic key figures and not the 'Sum of individual values of CKF'. -
What i understood is that whenever the time char is in row, then result should be simple on the sum what ur getting but when other char are there then it should go for calculation based on the sum of key figure.
If im not wrong in getting ur point.
How can two differenct activites be perofrmed on same key figure depending on the characteristic .....!. For this u have to think some other possibility or let somebody else update the thread.

Currency translation problem for calculated key figure

Hi All
I have a problem with the currency translation for a calculated key figure.
I have a requirement to show the MM consignment stock value in the specified currency from the selection screen.
For consignment stock, there is no value maintained in the system. So for this we need to calculate the value as below
Restricted key figure: RKFConsignment stock: Total stock with special stock indicator restriction "K"
Calculated keyfigure: Consignment stock value = Nodim( RKFConsignment stock) * (Standard cost / price unit).
Here, in the calculated keyfigure properties --> I have used a currency translation for the 0CALMONTH.
The query has selection on the 0calmonth.
But in the result the I am getting unexpected results.
Do we have any inconsistencies in the currency translation on the formulas?
Please help me on this.
Regards
S.R

Hi All
I have noticed something. I changed my query date selection to Calendar day - Keydate instead of calendar month.
And I have changed the currency variable to fixed exchange rate "CHF", it is working fine.
I think I have some problem with the currency translation variable.
Could anyone of you please send me the currency translation variable for Calendar month with the below parameters
exch rate type : M
Time reference : 0CALMONTH
End of month
Target currency for a variable : < var created on 0currency>
For my report, i need calendar month selection, currency selection.
Please help me with your ideas.
Thank you

Part2_ Formula var_Currency Conversion on Calculated key figure

Hello Friends Thanks for SDN response on how to work the currency translation in calculated key figure. Please suggest more on SDN Response if u have any customer exit code that I use to read the exchange rate. and what should i define in Formula variable. I donot want to use it on base key figure since then it will show up in report
SDN Response
create a formula variable having processing type a customer exit...write code in cmod to rad exchange rate and multiply ur CKF by this formula variable....
Thanks

Currency Translation for Key Figures with Value More Than One Currency

Hi...
I have query which display key figure GL Account Balance. The currency that used for this key figure is USD and IDR. How we want display value based on selection screen? So if we input currency USD, all value that use currency IDR translated to USD and all value that use currency USD not changed. Otherwise if we input IDR, all value that use currency USD translated to IDR and all value that use currency IDR not changed.
How we do this in query designer? Thank you.
I have use currency translation :
1. (Right Click Key Figures >> Properties >> Currency Conversion Key)
2. Target Currency Using Variables Entry
but seems the result is not correct. Can anyone help me ?

Satria

Hi all,
Thanks for your help, but still I have problem. I have create one currency conversion type, ZXXX. This currency conversion type is using exchange rate type = "M",source curr from Data Rec, sel of targ currency with translation,
and fixed time ref = "Current Date".
Problem:
1. With this setting, i create currency translation in BEx, but the result is not same, it's like the exchange rate not using the same setting with data in ECC (I compare data with transaction fs10N). Is my setting for exchange rate not correct?
2. When I try to display GL Account Balance --> Calculated Key Figure (Total Debet - Total Credit) for period 0, the translation not working. Example if the value is IDR 1234 then the value in USD still USD 1234. Why this happen?
Thank you

Currency translation for key figure in bex not working.

Hi friends,
i want to do currency translation for key figure(invoice value in local currency).
i have followed the steps as under:
1st Transferring Global Table Contents: Currencies from R/3 Systems
2nd than transfer exchange rate - from r/3 to bi
3 than In SPRO settings of BW there is option "consider translation ratios in translation"
4th than used transaction RSCUR for creating currency translation type: parameter(exchange rate:m, soure currency fom data records, target currency ISK, time ref: current date)
5th than in BEX query designer have sated this for key figure
but when i run query in RSRT, curreny amount not getting convert?
am i missing any step?
pl. guide.
thanks dushyant.

Hi Dushyant,
Are these steps followed in Query designer??
In the Query designer, for that particular key figure property, under Conversion tab >> Currency Translation >> Conversion Type, select the currency translation type you created in RSCUR.
And in the target currency, select accordingly.
If you are going to use a variable, use the following link..

BEx report -two different calculations for a result for one key figure how?

All,
Maybe someone could help me with the following, we have a requirement to setup for one key figure two calculations for result rows. One result (average) for one level, and on a higher level -grand total have a (sum), as for our business it makes sense to do it this way. We have setup average for this KF, we get correct results (see below values 7,5 & 6,5) however for the grand total (across multiple products) so for one level up we need to have a different calculation. How could we achieve this?
Here is an example:
location     product          inventory
AAAA     11111          5
AAAA     11111          5
AAAA     11111          10
AAAA     11111          10
AAAA     Result          7,5      ---> average
AAAA     22222          5
AAAA     22222          6
AAAA     22222          7
AAAA     22222          8
AAAA     Result          6,5       -
> average
AAAA     Result (across products)          14      ---> here I want to have a sum of averages

This could be achieve only IF you upload a hierarchy for product inventory with different levels, wherein each level show subtotals and finally grand total will be shown at the end of the results.

Exception Aggregation for a Calculated Key Figure in a Structure

Hello BI world,
Please can someone tell me if it is technically possible to use "exception aggregation (count) in a calculated key figure within a structure.
The definition of the structure is:
Rows: Characteristic (Selection) = Problem type (0CATCODE_FE) = "AF01"
Colums (Selections) Month 1 , Month 2, Month 3, etc .. Total
             Details of the selection for each month
                       0CALMONTH = Variable (offset+1 for Month 2 , 3 etc)
                               1KYFNM = CKF
Calculated Key Figure (CKF) =
                   General Tab: = Key Figure "0CAUSE_CNT"
                   Aggregation Tab - Exception Aggregation = Count All Values
                                             Ref Characteristic = Problem type (0CATCODE_FE)
                                                Calculation After Aggregation = not ticked
                   Local Calculations Tab = All "Nothing Defined"
What I am trying to achieve is the "count" of "Category codes" for each month specified in the structure.
I have looked in the cube and there should be a "category Code" count of "9" for Jan 2008 for notifcation type AF01 but the query shows 0?
Thanks in advance, points will be awarded.
Steve

Still not working? Not sure why? Have tried both answers and just not counting...
Is there any restrictions on using "exception aggregation" in a calculated key figures in a structure?
The structure is in the columns and it is a selection that includes the CKF with the exception aggregation plus a restriction on calendar month using a variable?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Problems with Calculated Key Figure in Bex

One of our super users have copied a query and trying to do some changes in the new query. In the Query designer, the person was directly dragging a Calculated Key Figure from the left hand side panel into columns and trying to change its properties (Currency conversion key is changed from 'Nothing Defined' to 'Monthly average rate' with variable entry.
Then we get the error 'Abort system error in program and form SET_TCUR-02-' without even getting the variable popup window.
Also when we check the Query properties, we observed that one variable entry (which is displayed in the target currency field in the properties) is displayed twice and came to know that this is the reason for the error.
But why is that displaying twice there? Is there anything wrong in the way we had created the CKF? Do you have any document on how to use CKFs and RKFs?

ABAP-Coding for EVERY Key figure in infocube 0RT_C02

Hello gurus;
      Does anybody know which is the reason for Abap-coding for every key figure in infocube 0rt_c02 from InfoSource 2lis_13_vditm?
Thanks in advanced!
Csr

Hi,
this is done like this in the business content because the extractor is providing the data with a process key; this process key is then translated into meaningfull business objects (key figures);
fro instance ProcessKey 202 in application SD is reflecting Credit memos:
* Credit Memo
IF COMM_STRUCTURE-PROCESSKEY = '202'
    AND COMM_STRUCTURE-BWAPPLNM EQ 'SD'.
* currency convert
    IF COMM_STRUCTURE-COST <> 0.       "Value in document UNIT
      PERFORM LOC_CURR_CONVERT
        USING    COMM_STRUCTURE-COST   "Value in doc UNIT
                 COMM_STRUCTURE-TRANS_DATE     "Date for exchange
                 COMM_STRUCTURE-DOC_CURRCY     "Document Currency
                 COMM_STRUCTURE-LOC_CURRCY     "Local currency
*                COMM_STRUCTURE-EXCHG_RATE     "Exchanging rate
                 COMM_STRUCTURE-/BIC/ZEXRATEAC "Exchanging rate Acctn
        CHANGING RESULT.
* the KPI's must be turned to positive because the SD-extractors
* allways deliver them neg. if it's a process back (e.g. return order)
      RESULT = RESULT * ( -1 ).
      UNIT = COMM_STRUCTURE-LOC_CURRCY.
* if the returncode is not equal zero, the result will not be updated
      RETURNCODE = 0.
    ELSE.
* if the returncode is not equal zero, the result will not be updated
      RETURNCODE = 4.
    ENDIF.
ELSE.
* if the returncode is not equal zero, the result will not be updated
    RETURNCODE = 4.
ENDIF.
the above routine is quite self explaining the code.
hope this helps...

ELSEIF in calculated key figure

Dear gurus
We have recently upgraded to NW2004s, and would need some help on the formula for my calculated key figure. This calculated key figure is meant to replicate IF... ELSEIF statement, depending on what the user enters. The logic that we have are as below :
IF Var=1, then display key figure A
ELSEIF Var=2, then display key figure B
ELSEIF Var=3, then display key figure C
ELSEIF Var=4, then display key figure D
where Var is a Formula Variable, Processing By User Entry/Default value.
The formula that we have originally, in BW3.5 is :
<i>(Var == 1) * 'Amount in TC' + (Var== 2) * 'Amount in Comp Code' + (Var == 3) * 'Amount in Parall USD' + (Var == 4) * 'Amount in Hard Cur' </i>
This formula has served us well in BW 3.1 to BW 3.5, and never had any problems with it. However, when we migrated over to BW 7.0, we could not get values for this formula (eventhough we have data in our cubes). The only data that get is when we key in Var=1, but when we try with Var=2, 3 or 4, no data is displayed in our key figure.
We tried to debug, but somehow we could not figure out how the new BW7.0 calculates these type of key figures, and whether is there a change in the formula variable. We believe that the problem may lie in the way that BW 7.0 interprets the formula above, and only obtains the first portion of the formula (Var==1).
We would appreciate any helps, and of course, points will be awarded if problem can be solved.
Thanks a lot

Dear all
With some luck in searching, I manage to find an OSS note which depicts this error and resolve it. For those who have the same problem, please use this OSS Note 994194.

Problem in Calculated Key Figure in BEx 7.0

Hi All,
In Bex 7.0
We have a requirement where we need to display a key figure which is having unit price of an Article. In our InfoProvider we have Article, Store and Date and the report is based on Article. As we have to display only the latest price we have created a RKF by putting a restrcition of the latest date in the date range on the the unit price key figure. But still unit price is getting aggregated over stores.
For example if there are 10 stores and the unit price of an article is 5, then data displayed is 50 and not 5.
We tried to create a Calculated Key Figure using the above RKF and an exception aggregation Average of all detailed value that are not zero, null or error on reference characteristic 0PLANT. Its working fine when the query is restricted to one or two Articles. But for all the articles it gives the following error messages.
1. Error while reading data; navigation is possible.
2. Error occurred during parallel processing of query 17; RC3
3. Error executing physical plan: AttributeEngine: no 6952
4. Error reading the data of infoprovider ZXMSC01$X
5. Amount of data that is to be read from the BIA server is too large
6. The following error 6952 occurred in BIA server
7. Error executing physical plan: AttributeEngine: not enough memory;BwPopMerge pop1(setIsLastMerge(1)),in executor::Executor in cube: p03_zxmsc01
Can anyone tell me the solution for the above error. Or if there is a workaround to our requirement.
Regards,
Sachin

Hi,
Could be a memory issue.
One of your cube in on BIA which is causing the Problem.
So executing the query in RSRT by selecting Do not use BIA index option.
If the query is executed with out any issue then take the cube out of BIA and push it back.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Raghu
P.S : Also please let us know if this query is live and it is an issue that you are facing after executing it properly for few days.
Or this is a new query created and testing now and in the process got this error?

Using Characteristic in Calculated key figure

Hello every one,
I need a help. Can anyone help me in solving one requirement.
I want to know if i can use a Characteristic in calculated key figure.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can try to create a formula variable of type replacement path and supply this char to pull the value from. Evaluate this value as a boolean (1 or 0 for if there is a value or not). Then you can create a new formula using this formula variable and your CKF. If the result is 1, then you get the value of the CKF, or if the indicator returns 0, then you get 0 as the result.
Hope this helps...
