Display a percentage sign in a Query formula

Hi Gurus. I have a question.
I created a Query that contains local fields. One of them is the division of Field A into Field B. The result is supposed to be a percentage value.
My question is, how can I display the '%' icon at the end of the field, so it is displayed as a true percentage field? Right now I'm only showing numbers.
Can this be done directly on the Complex calculation of the field? Or this is added somewhere else?
Please advice.

Simple way is
make the filed description as "% of some thing"
One more way is use a field which has a data type DEC which supports the % (you see the data type used in KKB_PROZABW). I think it is deficlut task.

Need to display a percentage sign '%' in the query field

hi all
I know that this might be very simple..
but it has bugged me for a while now..
i need to display ''%" in a particular field alongwith the number in the query for
1. when field is having a percentage calc of two KF.
2. when field is a mixed containing amount type KF & i need to display it only for certain records not all .
Please help me.
best regards,
ramesh

1 - if you are using a percentage function in a CKF/Formula, it should by default come with a % sign in your report.
2 - You can't mix and match (have '%' only for some rows) unless you want to use some vb macro or table interface class to do it.
For any number that is a percentage but doesn't appear with %, you can always create another CKF ( = 100 % ckf_minus_perc ), or a variant of it and that should get you the same value with a % sign.

How to display a percentage sign ( % ) after a text box in a screen

hi experts,
Can anybody tell me how to display a percentage sign ( % ) after a text box in a screen.

Hi Ajay,
Try to use the [Position|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/9f/dba7e235c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm] option of selection screen.
By using this you can place the text as a comment at a desired position on the selection screen.
The syntax would be like this :
SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION <pos>.

How to display a percentage sign in calculated member column?

Hello all,
in my report I have a calculated member column whose value is determined by follwing value formula:
if CurrentColumnIndex - 2 = 1 then
        If GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex-3, CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 then
        0
        else
        (GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex-1, CurrentSummaryIndex)/
        GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex-3, CurrentSummaryIndex)) * 100
    else
        If GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex-5, CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 then
        0
        else
        (GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex-1, CurrentSummaryIndex)/
        GridValueAt(CurrentRowIndex, CurrentColumnIndex-5, CurrentSummaryIndex))*100
Returned is a numeric value and it is being correctly displayed in calculated member column. As the value should represent percentage, I need to display a % sign after every value.
How would I achieve this? I have seen a thread here in the discussion where approach with a formula and DisplayString function is mentioned - but there are no details how this could be achieved....
The crosstab in question looks like this:
Calculated Member is based on "REV_TOTAL" group column.
I also attached the .rpt file (renamed to .txt for upload)
Many thanks in advance,
Marin

Hello Raghavendra,
thanks for the quick reply.
Unfortunately it is not as easy at it seems - calculated member column is not showing in report designer and I can not apply the suggested approach with formatting toolbar...
The column only shows here (right click on table -> "Advanced Calculations" -> "Calculated Member...") and there is no possibility to format it directly:
Any other suggestions?
Many thanks,
Marin

How to conditionally put a percentage sign in a column in a report

Background: In the past, our users have been provided with a spreadsheet of statistics that was created manually, by running a bunch of barely related queries, manually entering the data into the spreadsheet, adding formatting and headings, etc. They wanted this moved to APEX, and they wanted to be able to export it as one spreadsheet. The only way I could find to do this was to combine all the queries into one huge query.
So I have a report of 22 unique queries unioned together. The third and fifth columns are percentages. I found Column format with percent ( % ) sign post that explained how to use the HTML Expression (under Column Attributes) to add a percentage sign (#COL03#%).
This worked fine except for that in order to get the headings how they wanted them, I had to do something like:
-statistical query-
union all
select '<b>HEADING ONE</b>', null, null, null, null from dual
union all
-statistical query-
etc.
The problem now is that I don't actually want the percentage sign in the heading rows. Is there a way to change the HTML Expression so it's conditional, and it only appends the percentage sign if the value in that row is not null? Or alternately, is there a way to append the percentage sign in the actual select statement, so I could go through each of my 22 queries and append it only when I know it's needed? A simple example of one of these queries is:
select ''New Enrollees'' as a,
(count(case when extract(month from rdate) = :P45_MONTH_SELECT THEN 1 else NULL END)) as monthly,
(((count(case when extract(month from rdate) = :P45_MONTH_SELECT THEN 1 else NULL END))/:P45_TOTAL_MON_SUBMISSIONS)*100) as m,
(count(case when extract(month from rdate) <= :P45_MONTH_SELECT THEN 1 else NULL END)) as YTD,
(((count(case when extract(month from rdate) <= :P45_MONTH_SELECT THEN 1 else NULL END))/:P45_TOTAL_SUBMISSIONS)*100) as y
from main
where extract(year from rdate) = :P45_YEAR_SELECT
Thanks in advance for your help!

why don't you add the percentage sign in the query itself, e.g. with a case statement to show it conditionally?

How to add a PERCENTAGE sign to the formula

I was using %A in a fomula to calculate variance %age.
Because %A is based on absolute value that eliminates the sign it wont work for us.
I am planning to do direct calculation without %A to calculate pecent varaince but then I lose the % sign from the cell.
I am sure you can help.
I need to calculate %age and then also display % sign in the cell. For example the cell should show 20.00 % not just 20.00.
If I get a prompt reply not only I will be thankful will also give full credit.

Hi Ram,
you can display the % sign in the query report
In the formula select , instead of using percantage share , I think you can use either try with (%CT) or (%GT) and this will be available in percantage functions
I have done for one my report and able to display % sign.
kindly try with the above options if not able to achieve then let me know, I will provide the step by step doc.
thanks

Removing dollar sign in the Query

Hi gurus,
Can you please help me to remove dollar sign in the query when an amount is displayed...
Thank you.

Hi Bob
"Display scaling factors" only worked for my 1-structure queries. I have finance queries where the row is hardcoded with selections and formulas and the column are key figures and calculated key figures. The "Display scaling factor" option doesn't remove the $ signs away from all cells. Do you have any idea how I can get rid of them?
Thanks,

Attempting to Display Total/Percentage in Answers when grouped by Attribute

Hi all,
I'm relatively new to BI and attempting the following setup. (I'm simplifying the model somewhat of course).
I have a Fact called Job which has an attribute called Type ( along with others such as Create Date , Delivered Date , Length , Score etc ).
What I need to display , is the following columns together in Answers.
Type | Count of Type | Percentage of Total Number of Jobs.
Count of Type is just the number of times the Type shows up for a specific type value.
I can easily do a "Count of Type" as a Logical Column in the Business Model and Mapping for the Fact Table using a Default Aggregation Rule of Count.
Percentage of Total Number of Jobs is supposed to be the Percentage that the specific Type Count is of the total number of jobs . i.e. Count of Type / Total number of all Jobs as %age.
This is where I have my issue. I can create a logical column called Total Number of Jobs using default aggregation rule of count on Job ID and create a Percentage using Calculation Wizard just fine.
But when I try to have this column in Answers against the first two columns I don't get the right result - I get 100% for every row in the third column - because of course it is grouping the results by Type so it is calculating the "Total Number of Jobs" and consequently the Percentage measure for each individual Type. Thus I get something like
Type | Count of Type | Percentage of Total Number of Jobs
1 | 5 | 100%
2 | 5 | 100%
When I really want to get
Type | Count of Type | Percentage of Total Number of Jobs
1 | 5 | 50%
2 | 5 | 50%
Is there any way I can "store" the total number of jobs in the Business Model and Mapping Layer as a logical column in the Job Fact so that it does not display the count aggregate for the grouping (Type) but instead just the total count ?
I'll be glad to clarify if this sounds too fuzzy.
Thanks in advance.
AB.

Hi ,
Thanks for the reply , that is successful at getting past the issue of having 100% as the result in every row which would happen if we used a measure built in the Business Model and Mapping layer.
I'm running into some other minor issues but I think they are data row count related .. I will update this if they are not.
Additional clarification if it helps anyone else with similar issues.
Basically Type is an attribute of the Job Detail Fact ( 0 to many rows per job ) . There is also a Job Fact that is at a higher level of granularity ( one row per job ).
What I am trying to do is display the Percentage or even the Total Number of Jobs ( row count of Job Fact ) in each row along with the Type and Count of Type of Job Detail.
This is of course made complex because not all Jobs have a Job Detail row and some have many.
In my Job Detail logical table source , I have the Logical Table Job Detail mapped to both the Job and Job detail physical tables . ( I have tried connecting both via Inner and Left Outer joins) .
So ideally I would see something like
Type of Job Detail | Count of Type of Job Detail | Total Number of Jobs | Percentage of Total Number of Jobs
1 | 5 | 50 | 10%
2 | 5 | 50 | 10%
Where the percentage and total are of Jobs and the total is less than 100% .

How to display language key (0LANGU) in the query for BW report

Hi,
Can someone tell me how to display language key (0LANGU) in the query? I want to display which language (English or French) is used for material description in BW report. Thx.

hi,
check if the infoobject is kept as lang dependent or not for material text, else you need to create a masterdata attribute with text and lang keys and do corresponding mapping, so then it can be displayed in your report
