Datatype for Characteristic IO.

Hi,
I have an ECC field Royalty Percentage which has a value say 0.80, Am mapping it to Characteristic IO in BW which has a datatype NUMC. Now this means that Ryalty percentage comes up as 0080 instead of 0.80. What data type do I select so that it comes up as 0.80 and do I need to write a routine for thsis.
Thanks
VK

My guess is, it should be a Key figure with data type DEC.
Thanks
El.

Getting error while creating form and report on webservice: ORA-20001: Unable to create form on table. ORA-02263: need to specify the datatype for this column.

i am using the following description to create a web service reference:

Please someone help to solve this as i need to fix it urgently.

i exported the application from apex.oracle.com and imported it to our environment
import went fine, but when I ran the IR page I got
ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-00904: : invalid identifier
evidently the problem is a lack of public execute on DBMS_LOB, which is used in the generated IR source.
while waiting for the DBA to grant privs on DBMS_LOB, changing the dbms_lob.getlength call to length() fixes the IR.
however, i am not getting the download link on the associated form page... changed templates, that's not the issue -- we'll see if that's a dbms_lob issue as well

Looks like there is a 127-column limit on the number of report columns supported when using that wizard. Do you have more than that?

Error while opening Workbook:variables for characteristic cannot be process

Hi all,
When I try to open the workbook for a particular query, I am getting the following error. Kindly suggest me in rectifying this information message.
"Variables for characteristic [ZDVCODE]Dealer code cannot be processed"
Regards,
Steve

I am encountering a very similar warning, so this may shed some light on the matter. I have a Web Application that runs just fine when it is filtered only by Calendar Day. However, when I filter the Web Application by Calendar Day and Material Group both, then I get a warning at the top of the output that says "Variables for characteristic [0CALDAY]Calendar Day cannot be processed".
So, at least in my case, the variable isn't deleted, and it actually works just fine buy will spit out this warning under these circumstances.

Issue in IP - Entering value for Characteristic object

Hi Expert,
I have a requirement where the input has to be unabled for characteristic objects through IP template.
I did the development as per the blog:
http://scn.sap.com/blogs/Christopher.sapbw/2012/12/25/master-data-planning-with-sap-integrated-planning-sap-ip
The issue is the development should have been done by using Super class CL_RSMD_RS_BW_SPEC. But could not use it as super class as i could not modify the methods in this case. Instead i made a copy of this class and did some modifications to the class. The class is not working for me. Its throwing the following error.
Please let me know if you have come across similar issue, and how to resolve it.
Thanks,
Anupama

Hi Anass,
I was able to solve the issue partially. Not getting the error now, but i am still not able to save the entered data back to the real time cube. I am using the analysis office for my development and using the standard save button on Analysis office.
Please help.
Thanks,
Anupama

Catalog error : Index of values is missing for characteristic PLANTu0092

Error" Index of values is missing for characteristic " in mapping
Hi
We are in SRM
I was trying to transfer Master records to catalog using
BAdi : BBP_CCM_CHAR_MAINT but Im getting an error Index of values is missing for characteristic PLANT.
Plant has multiple value.
Ive following code in the method ENHANCE_CTY_DEF
ls_char_definition-char_name = 'PLANT'.
ls_char_definition-char_datatype = 'CHAR'.
ls_char_definition-MULTIVAL_INDICATOR = 'X'.
APPEND ls_char_definition TO et_char_definition.
Following code in the method VALUATE_PRODUCT
**"plant data
v_index = 1.
ls_char_valuation-char_name = 'PLANT'.
LOOP at t_plant into WA_plant.
ls_char_valuation-char_value = WA_PLANT-PLANT_1.
IF WA_plant-PLANT_1 is not initial.
   ls_char_valuation-MULTIVAL_INDEX = v_index.
   APPEND ls_char_valuation TO et_char_valuation.
   v_index = v_index + 1.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve it. Ill definitely reward points to any useful answer.
-Joe

Hi
Have you raised any OSS message with SAP yet ? If no, raise one immediately.
Meanwhile, try this ->
<u>It seems the Following code in the method VALUATE_PRODUCT
has some problem -></u>
**"plant data
v_index = 1.
ls_char_valuation-char_name = 'PLANT'.
LOOP at t_plant into WA_plant.
ls_char_valuation-char_value = WA_PLANT-PLANT_1.
IF WA_plant-PLANT_1 is not initial.
ls_char_valuation-MULTIVAL_INDEX = v_index.
APPEND ls_char_valuation TO et_char_valuation.
v_index = v_index + 1.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Try changing the code - like this ->
**"plant data
LOOP at t_plant into WA_plant.
v_index = sy-tabix.
ls_char_valuation-char_name = 'PLANT'.
ls_char_valuation-char_value = WA_PLANT-PLANT_1.
IF WA_plant-PLANT_1 is not initial.
ls_char_valuation-MULTIVAL_INDEX = v_index.
APPEND ls_char_valuation TO et_char_valuation.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Some SAP OSS notes to refer ->

How to Create a datatype for a storeprocedure which has got array ?

Hi All,
Please tell me how to create a datatype for a storeprocedure which has got an array structure ?
Thanks,
Sindhu.

Hi Sindhu.
You would have to use a JDBC Cursor for this but it's possible only Output parameters, not Input parameters.
It's describle in a help link:
Defining an EXECUTE Statement http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/44/7b72b2fde93673e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm
The following SQL data types are supported:
INTEGER, BIT, TINYINT, SMALLINT, BIGINT, FLOAT, REAL, DOUBLE, NUMERIC, DECIMAL, CHAR, VARCHAR, STRING, LONGVARCHAR, DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP, BINARY, VARBINARY, LONGVARBINARY, BLOB (input and output), CLOB (input and output), CURSOR (output; only in connection with the Oracle JDBC driver)
I think you can execute your StoreProcedure many times depends of array occurs.
Regards.

Change datatype for field of report

I have a report that uses a Stored procedure for a datasource - it originally had to fields that were "number" as the field datatype and took an integer from the Sp.
I've since changed the datatype for that field from int to smallmoney. How can i refresh these links for the report without deleting the data source and loosing the report as it is now. The names stayed the same. Only the data type for two fields changed from int to smallmoney.
Thank you!!

Report Desinger: Binding error for characteristic / Key Figure

Hi,
I am getting the error "Binding error for characteristic: Reference to characteristic".
I have created a report using a query and I have to change the query as per requirement, removed a characteristic.
Now when I execute a report, getting Data binding error.
Does system not changes the report if we change the provider query?
How can this issue be handled apart from deleting existing report and creating a new one?
Appreciate your help in advance.
Regards,
Amit

Amit,
First, try doing a save as on your report and save it under a new name. Delete the old one, then re-save it as the same name as before. Then, go in and clear cache so that it will re-build all references in the query. This should remove the error and you won't have to rebuild anything.
Cheers,
Rusty

Check the dashboards consumes data from the BEX query working or not in the BW system. And check characteristic 0I_CALMO defined and working or not.

Using number datatype for date column

Hi
Is there a side effect for using "number" datatype for "date" column?
If so, what is the disadvantage?
Many thanks

Oracle provides date arithmetic and a number of functions for manipulating DATEs. None of them work with numbers.
For example,
SELECT    TRUNC (order_date, 'MONTH')     AS order_month
,       AVG (ship_date - order_date)     AS avg_delay
FROM       orders
GROUP BY TRUNC (order_date, 'MONTH')
;order_month involves a DATE function; it's pretty easy to find the month that conatins order_date.
avg_delay involves date arithmetic. It's extrememly easy to find how much the time passed between order_date and ship_date.
Depending on how you code dates as numbers, doing either one of the above may be just as easy, but doing the other will be very difficult. You'll waste a lot of effort converting the NUMBERs to real DATEs whenever you need to manipulate them.
Validation can be very difficult for NUMBERs, also.
Watch this forum. It's a rare day when there's not some question about how to get around a problem caused by storing dates in a NUMBER (or VARCHAR2) column. Don't add to that. Always use DATE columns for dates.

Whats the datatype for the time in the format mm:ss.ms

Hello Sir,
I wanted to create a table with a field called time.
what should be the datatype for this field contains the value as in the format mm:ss.ms(04:53.0).
waiting for ur reply.

pannar

Actually, i need to read some time values from excel sheet and store them into a table. it should contains the field time with the value something like
(05:21.1) ie mm:ss.ms).
if i put varchar2, i will be in trouble at the time of querying the table with some condition like fetch the records only the time duration less than 3 mins or something like that!
in this case, what data type finally fits to do this?
