Description of key figure is blank in English

In our project a Custom key figure is created in spanish language and description also in spanish.
Version: BW 3.1
When I have logged in to spanish language and checked the report in Bex ,description of key figure is available.
But when I log in to english environment the description in bex rport of key figure is showing blank
In rsa1 in both spanish and english environments key figure description is okay and correctly displaying.
Could you please throw some light in it so that I can solve the error

Hi Prasanth,
This are the key figures XPRECIO: Transactional Price and XPRECLIST: Price list, its maintained in RSA1 tcode at info object level .
These two KF descriptions are maintained in English, its working fine when I login into SAP Bex analyzer with English language and its not showing the description for the languages (German, Spanish, Portuguese and etc).
Its need to be displayed in when login into SAP Bex analyzer with language German, Spanish, Portuguese and etc.

Program or FM tochange description of key figure in all queries at a time

Hi,
As per my requirement i need to change the description of a key figure from OED to IEG in all the reports which are containing "OED" as key figure at Query level only.
Its a KF and not a resteicted key figure or calculated KF.
Is there any program or table or Function module where we can change the key figure description directly
without going to each Query and change it.
Please suggest me.
Thanks & Regards
Bharathi

texts for key figures chars. etc are refrenced only once when query is created. after that if description changes in the infoobject that doesn't reflect in query.
Texts for all elements are maintained in RSZELTTXT table. you can write a simple program to modify texts of elements which suit your need. Contact any abaper in your team to write this program which simply updates the texts of certain elements..
logic may be like this
select all lines from RSZELTTXT where TXTSH = 'Plant' or TXTLG = 'Plant'.
modify these llnes with new text.
update rszelttxt with these new lines

Dynamic Description for Key figure values

Hi Experts,
I got a requirement for change the description in query analyzer.
              Month    200901                                         200902                            200903

My requirement is price heading we need to show current date to previous months header is Past price and current date to future months we need to Future price.
Already I tried with two restricted key figures with current montthless than one key figure and currentmonthgreater than one keyfigure. When I using in query both key figure displayed in both sides.
I want to show past price heading for Less than current month and future price heading for greater than current month.
Please let me know any possibilities to show the description dynamically.
Thanks,
Chandra

How to ignore blank/null key figure value in BI Queries

Reports on Multiprovider - we see some cells of a Key figure as blanks. These blanks are interpreted as zeros by the system and calculated accordingly resulting in incorrect values. As per our requirement, we need a count of all hard/real zeros only, not the blanks. For example, if there are 10 rows of which 6 are real zeros and 4 are blanks - our count should be 6 and not 10.
How to ignore the blanks in BEx queries please?
Thanks for your help.
Upender

Rakesh,
It is not possible to find a pattern because the report is on a MultiProvider with 2 InfoProviders- Purchasing documents DSO and Material Movements InfoCube.
Every Purchasing Document has several materials associated with it. These materials are compared with materials in Materials Movement. Not all materials in Purchasing Document are found in Materials Movement. For those Materials found in Materials Movement, the Quantity is obtained. For these found rows, the correct value is showing up - if the quantity is zero, it is showing in reports as zero. If the material is not found in Material Movements then Quantity shows up as blank values.
My requirement is ignore such blank quantities and not count them. Only Quantities with 0 values should be counted. Currently both blanks and zero values are counted showing inflated count.
Thanks,
Upender

Want to edit the name of the std. key figure

Dear All,
I want to edit the name of the key figure from the standard s001 info structure. I aslo want to add new key figure as High edu cess in my MCTA. I am working in mfg. co. where as we are compairing our sales register with mcta report but in mcta report high edu cess is not coming.
while compairing with sales register the name of the filed is not matching with mcta key figure for example
1) billing doc. ps5 = tax amt.
2) Net inv. SIS2 = BED (excise duty)
now I want to edit the name of net inv. SIS2 as excise duty (bed charges).
I need help in this case.
Nikhil

Hi,
If you want change the name of key figures, see this answer i thread :
how to change the description
You can enter element data to modify the description.
Warning : if you change this element data, all program displays the new description.
Another solution : use this extension MCR00002 to modify description for key figures.
Or create flexible analysis (Tcode MCSA) in ref to S001 (evaluation structure). In this analysis, you can add new key figures by using formula (in ref to std key figures like Bill. doc: PS 5 = S001-UMKZWI5).

Lionel

Key figure description not show in BEx and WAD sometimes

Hi experts!
I have a big problem. Sometimes we have the effect that a report shows no key figures. I mean I see the numbers but no key figure description is shown.
Example (correct)
Country |    Hierarchy   |        Banking      |         ATM       |      ....
Germany |   Key figure 1 |           1.000     |         500       |      ....
        |   Key figure 2 |                27   |           9       |      ....
        |   Key figure 3 |                27   |           9       |      ....
        |   Key figure 4 |                27   |           9       |      ....
Example (wrong)
Country |    Hierarchy   |        Banking      |         ATM       |      ....
Germany |                |           1.000     |         500       |      ....
        |                |                27   |           9       |      ....
        |                |                27   |           9       |      ....
        |                |                27   |           9       |      ....
We can solve the problem if so we deleted the query from the cache but that is not really a good solution.
Any suggestions?
Regards, Thomas

Hi Thomas,
I have a similar problem in WAD. After applying Patch 19, the Key Figures descriptions do not display in certain reports.
From Query Designer, everything is OK.
Could you fix the issue?

Show Blank Key Figures as 0

Dear all,
I want to ask something,, is there any way to show blank/null key figures (in BEX analyzer) as 0?
Thank you very much...
Regards,
Kevin
Edited by: supertan on Jan 30, 2012 5:00 AM

1.You can achieve your requirement by writing field level Code at transformation level -
if the SOURCE_FIELDS-<object> = ' ' (i.e. blank).
result = 0.
endif.
2. Try to use Query settings - how to display data under Display Tab
Zero Value display --- select : Zero without currency
3.Create a formula and add KF with 0 ( KF+0)
Use Boolean Function
(KF > 0) * KF + (KF <= 0) * 0

Global calculated key figures and their descriptions

Hi, I currently have a strange problem concerning calculated key figures.
We have several global calculated key figures which are used in approx. 100 querys. These key figures have a custom description ( not the same as the underlying keyfig info object).
When we use the calc. key figures in querys we let them take the description from the global key figure (the box 'use Standard text' is checked). When we execute the query, the description of the calculated does not show. As soon as we uncheck the box 'use Standard text' (and thus use 'local' -query level- descriptions) the description does show. Offcourse this is not a solution but merely a workaround, we want the key fig to take its description from the global key figure.
The problem as described above only occures on one of the two development environments. The environment on which the problem occures has support package skw70018(nwv st 16), the environment on which the problem <u>doesn't</u> occure has support package skw70013.

Execute the content at Infoprovider level as below
Div Team A B C
A X 2 1 6 9
A Y 4 2 9 15
Result Row 6 3 15
If you get same desired result in Infoprovider .. it should come in Report ... Run the report in RSRT (Without cache)
How you built the MP based on single cube or 2 ? Display content in MP for above critieria ... to cross check the report
check the idenfication ... is marked to which cube ?

Key figure units in fact tables of InfoCube are blank

I run RSRV - Key figure units in fact tables for my cube and found the following error message. I found one SAP note 941895 - RSRV test fails with unknown error, but our system status is SAPKW70020, so this note is not useful to our case. Pls advise!
System message:
The test Unit of key figures in fact tables for InfoCube XXX initial had to be terminated due to an unknown error (RSRV320).
Many thanks!
rajatina.

Hi Raja,
Check that in your transformation you have mapped Unit from source system to this key figure. If not then you will have to do the mapping and reload the data. If you are not able to get unit from source system then atleast you will have to assign some constant Unit if possible.

How to controle the output of a key figure based on an attribute

As part of following up on a select range of materials during their launch period a report is needed, where the key figures are controlled by a specific attribute.
The attribute is called End Launch Control Date and it holds the specific day where the product goes from launch to replenishment. When the product goes into repleneshment it is no longer relevant to follow up on.
The follow up list contains around 80 materials (SKU's) and the challenge is that they have different End Launch Control Dates.
So, I would like to design a report that does the following:
1) When drill on material, the key figures only show values before the End Launch Control Date for the specific material. After this date, the key figure should state either zero or blank cells.
2) The key figures should not be controlled by a specific date in the prompt, because the End Launch Control date is different for each material.
Does anyone have experience in constructing this functionality?

Hi,
you could maybe do this with using formula variables and and IF statement in the keyfigure you want to be blank after a certain date
basically you want/need to compare a date (which date would that be, one in the columns or smth?) with the end launch control date and if this date is bigger then this leave KF 0.
so you need to create a formula using two formula variables (of type replacement path and being replaced by the 2 dates) and compare these two in the formula. Then you use the outcome of this (which should be 0 or 1) in a new formula with the keyfigure (statement true * KF ) + (statement false * KF). This will give a value when comparison is ok and 0 when it is not ok.
This description might be not complete and bit short but I dont have the time to fully look it up, please let me know if you didnt understand the idea behind it.
Regards

Formatting Restrcited Key Figures in BEx

Hello - I am certain a lot of you experience this
Need to format an output that looks like the following:
<blank> Col1   Col2   Col3
Text1    RK1    RK2    RK3
Text2    RK4    RK5    RK6
         etc..
where
RK = Restricted Key figure
Col1 and Col2 Key Figures (RK1, RK2) are ZMOUNT1, ZAMOUNT2 restricted by same Commitment Item Range
(e.g., 1000 - 2000)
Col1 and Col2 Key Figures (RK4, RK5) are ZMOUNT1, ZAMOUNT2 restricted by different Commitment Item Range
(e.g., 4000 - 5000)
Similarly,
Col3 Key Figures (RK3, RK6) are ZAMOUNT3 restricted by different GL Account Ranges
ZAMOUNT1, ZAMOUNT2, ZAMOUNT3 are base key figures in InfoCube
end of example----
The result needs to be in Excel Output in batch - which I will do via Reporting Agent
Is this possible without:
a. Excel Macros
I could create an output that looks like
RK1, RK2, RK3, RK4, RK5, RK6
and use Excel to place the key figures in particular cols.
b. Without using the Table Interface Class
Not sure how this would work because the class methods run AFTER query is run
IS THERE BEx functionality / Query Designer / WAD functionality that can help me accomplish this??
Many thanks
-ap

Hi AP,
Welcome to SDN!!!
Theorethically it should work:
Create a structure in rows with 2 selections, Text1 & Text2; a structure in columns with 3 selections, Col1, Col2 & Col3. All selections are just having provided descriptions, without any chars or KFs.
Using cell editor you can define all needed formulas and descriptions for particular cells.
Best regards,

Displaying Restricted Key Figure Based on Fiscal Year

I'll try and explain my problem.
We have created a query using the CCA cube. We created 3 restricted key figures each with a different budget plan version. They are called 'AB' ,'PB' and 'RB'. When the user runs the query it will show planned values out for 5 years. So for example right now we are in Fiscal year 2006.
The problem is that 'AB' is only valid for year 2006, 'RB' may only me valid for 2007 and 'RB' may only be valid for 2008 - 2010. They use a different plan version for different years, If I place all three columns on the report I get zeros when the plans are not valid. Here is what I would like: When the fiscal year changes somehow select the correct restricted key figure to show and also adjust the text to reflect the fiscal year.
Its like my variables are dependent on the fiscal year displayed.
Any help would be great.
Rick

Hi Richard,
Have you tried out the Suppressing Zeros options in query properties...if the whole column is blank for a particular year, you should be able to suppress it. Click here for more info:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/1e/99ea3bd7896f58e10000000a11402f/content.htm
You can use text variables in the RKF description to reflect the year for which the data is being displayed.
Hope this helps...
