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 not working in BO-Webi Report

Hi All,
I have created a universe based on Bex Query.
Bex query consists of a customer exit variable on Calendar year/month where in it will populate current calendar year month by default while executing the query. It works fine while executing in SAP BI Bex Analyser.
I have created a universe based on the query. For Calender year/Month i got L00, L01, LOV values in universe.
Based on the universe I have created a Webi report. I did not specify calendar year/month as query filters. While directly executing the Webi report, I get the calendar year/month variable screen. But the value for it not populated based on customer Exit code written in BI.
What has to be done to get the customer exit values in variable screen.
Thanks for your understanding.
-- Selva

Since you have customer exit variable in your bex query, it will be like a global filter in your universe.
Execute the webi report and check whether you are getting only current month data.
--- Thanks

Customer exit variable with exclusion

Hello all, anyone know why a customer exit variable cannot exclude values ?
I've tried with multiple, single and interval without success (it give me a generic error in the customer exit for my variable).
Only the "selection option" mode seems to be enabled to exclude values (also in debug mode with rsrt transaction).
Unfortunately, I cannot use selection option (because this exclusion is an integration of pre-existence selection on a complex structure).
We have SAP BW 3.1C, with SP16. I've looked for sap notes but nothing about this problem (may be a limit).

Now I post my code. The variable is a "Multiple Single Values", optional, not "Ready for Input".
This is my code.
DATA: L_S_RANGE TYPE RSR_S_RANGESID.
If I_STEP = 2.
 CASE I_VNAM.
 WHEN 'ZXXXXX'.
 clear l_s_range.
 l_s_range-sign = 'E'.
 l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
 l_s_range-low = 'xxxxxxx'.
 append l_s_range to e_t_range.
 ENDCASE.
ENDIF.
The query raise an error (generic error on customer exit).
I've debugged the code. Error has raised from plausibility_check on RRS_VAR_VALUES_EXIT_AFTER. The following is the code that raise the error.
 CASE i_vparsel.
 WHEN rro04_c_vparsel-param
 OR rro04_c_vparsel-multiple
 OR rro04_c_vparsel-table.
 IF <l_s_range>-sign <> rs_c_range_sign-including
 OR <l_s_range>-opt <> rs_c_range_opt-equal.
 PERFORM raise USING rs_c_false g_c_ue_invalid_range
 i_vnam space space space.
 ENDIF.
From this code, it seems that with multiple selection we only have sign including and option equal.
What do you think about ?

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.
=====================================================================================
Is there any special settings needed before writing BEx Customer Exit ?
I have already created a project in CMOD and assinged a proper RSR00001

Any help please ....

Amol

My Code is as below ,

Hi,
We can do it by using Customer Exit code, but it requires more efforts to do teh same. For Customer EXit codes with example please see the url.

Changing a customer exit variable in Step 2 which was already set in Step 1

Hello,
i have the following problem.
There are 2 BEx customer exit variables A and B.
Variable A is filled in Step 1 before the user dialog appears.
Variable B is determined in Step 2 in dependence of variable A.
Now i want to change variable A in dependence of user entry althoug it was already filled in step 1. Can i somehow force the variable manipulation in step 2 for a single variable wich has already been set in step 1?
Or is there a way to change all variables at once after they have been set e.g. in step 3?
Regards,
Alexander

Hello Alexander!
It's true: You cannot change values that were entered in step 1. It's a feature This is supposed to make sure that a value that was entered (or confirmed) by the user can never be changed by any piece of coding - customer or SAP. If that possibility existed, then that would create some real issues for reliability and also support.
What is your scenario that you are trying to solve? Maybe there's another way to do it?

Christian!

Crystal Reports with BEx Query using Custom Exit Variable

Hi,
We have BW BEx Query using Customer User Exit variable to derive the Fiscal Week for Last Year (called it VAR2) based on another user input variable Current Fiscal Week (called it VAR1).
VAR2 is derived from VAR1 in CMOD via some codings and thus it DOES NOT have the "Variable is Ready for Input" flag ticked in the BEx. VAR1 is user input variable, so it has "Variable is Ready for Input" flag ticked in the BEx.
When we create a Crystal Reports with the BEx Query using variable VAR2, and when we run it we got an error message saying "Failed to execute query; '[]<java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: No Selection State Support!ZP_MI_LYPUBWEEK>'. Redesign your query or contact the data source maintainer to solve the problem". (note: ZP_MI_LYPUBWEEK is VAR2 in this case).
Could anyone please assist? Surely, CR supports BEx customer user exit variables like the above, right?. I also refer to the forum below as it seems to have a similar issue (except mine with an error message), but it does not provide a solution in it.

Hi Vibhav,
We have the SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise XI4.0 Version 14.0.0. Not sure if SP0 or other SP, got to check with Basis Team later.
We tried that "mandatory" option and did not work either.
Anyway, SAP has now come back again saying it is something they will fix it in next release/version. We got a phone call from them and a reply below to our OSS.

Query - Replacement Path for a Customer Exit Variable

Hi
New to the field and the board. Any and All help is greatly appreciated.
I have created a query which runs based on a date selection. The query have few customer exit variables whose values are set in ABAP. All Key Figures in the query are brought depending on the date ranges that each of the CE returns. Ex - one column is sales for first 10 days, 2nd for second 10 days, 3rd for first quarter, 4th for 2nd quarter and such. There are about 20 - 25 columns with KF in the query and all are Customer Exit date driven.
The challenge:- Each column heading should have the name of the month. I tried using Replacement Path. But it works when the selection is based on a constant value but not on value based on variable which is a customer exit. Ex - If I say restrict Cal/Month for July 2013, the replacement path for the Col Heading works fine. But if I say restrict Cal/Month for "ZVAR_SecondQtr_First_Month" the replacement path doesn't work.
Help Please
Thanks
Vidya

In the text variable that you are using , i guess you have a replacement path. In this instead of using your characteristic for specifying how the value has to replace, use the variable option and give the variable name there

Please provide the solutions ASAP.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi ,
Customer exists are used when you want to populate values in restriction dynamically. Like for example you want to your report to run for the current date. At that time you can write a customer exit variable which will fetch the system date and pass that value to report.

Need logic to find Year to Date for customer exit variable

Hi to all,
I am creating customer exit variable for query .
query should display data according to current system year from jan till current system date.

example.
current year 2010 and today is system date is sep 29 2010, so query will display data from jan 2010 to current data sep 29 2010.
please can any one provide me logic for that.
any code .

pavneet rana

Hi,
You need to create the characteristic customer exit variable of type select-options. Restrict your keyfigure based on this variable.
In the logic in CMOD,
write as below
i_step =2.
case i_vnam.
When 'exit variable'.
temp = sy-datum+0(4).
concatenate temp '0101' into temp1.
l_s_range-low= temp1.
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
l_s_range-high= sy-datum.
append APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
endcase.
For any further help on customer exit based variable, please refer below article.
