How can i display all the Coloumns (Key Figures) in the Report's same page

Hi All,
I am currently working on the BI 7.0 reporting. In the BEx Query Designer report, I am having 13 coloumns (7 Key figures and 6 Formulas) in the report. It is now displaying 10 coloumns in the First page of report. The other 3 coloumns can be seen by clicking on the next page. But the requirement is to see coloumns in the SAME PAGE.
Are there any settings OR any other thing in the Query Designer, which can enable me to see all the coloumns on SAME page. The users are not interested in scrolling next page for 3 coloumns.
Appreciates the Quick help/Response, please.
Regards
Ramana

In Web Application Designer, for the properties of your analysis webitem under the Paging category, change parameter 'Number of Data Columns Displayed at Once' (BLOCK_COLUMNS_SIZE) to 0. This will make all columns show instead of paginating as it is doing now.

Display Text as a Key Figure

Hi peeps,
I would like to display a text half way along my bex report
i.e. would like to display 4 chars ,then 5 kfs then some text and then some more kfs.
i am currently doing this using a Formula Variable to Replace a KF value with a char, and this works to an extent.
The char value is diplayed, but the formula variable only allows me to set the output to Number so if the char contains anything other than a number it fails to display. It also contains the number formating in bex.
any ideas.
e.g.
if a char contains week no, 200450, when using a formula var to display this as a KF, I get 200,450 formatting in Bex.
If the char contains 10/20/30 I get a display error in bex as it will not alow the '/' to be displayed
any ideas.

You could create your query as a tabular query. To do this just click on the 'Tabular Display' Button (left beside the technical Name button. There you can arrange the columns as you like and you are not restricted to characteristics/key figures order.

Display Problem with the Key Figures

Hi,
I working on the query where i need to display three Key Figures. I have no problem with the first two Key Figures , but the third Key figure values need to be display by day wise. (0Calday). i.e., the third key figure value should be displayed based no of days 0Calday has.
For Example if 0Calday is holding 4 days... then third keyfigure Value should be display as 4 columns with their respective values by dividing into day wise, remaining first two key figures should not be changed.
When i am trying to call the 0Calday into the Column, all the three Key Figures values are displaying as many as no of days 0calday has.
For Example if 0Calday has 2 day....the three Key Figures are values are breaking into two days values and displaying, so totally we can see 6 Key figure values. But i need first two values should not break but the last key figure should be divide into two days as values and display.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Venkat
This can be achieved by supressing 0 values.
1) In the Query Designer: Go toquery properties
2) Select Suppress Zeros
3) Select option Active
4) Under Effect On : try with Column or row o (Not infront of system , so cannot exactly remember)
This will allow you to get the exact result as per your requirement. We had the same issue and we could resolve this by following this.
Hope it helps.

Problem in display of char. and key figure for yearly query

Hello all,
I got a query in which i have to do restriction on
Calendar Day/Month in Rows under Material which is a Characteristics
So it should be
                                                           PACKAGE QUANTITY
                                        JAN FEB MAR   APRIL.......DEC
PACK1
PACK2
PACK3
PACK4 for current year
PACK4 for prior YEar
Now the months display is not pre decided, it can be anything as per the input of user.
So i have to restrict it on Calendar month for Material twice
In current year , just introducing the Interval range variable
In previous year, same restricition with offset -12
Now the problem is while displaying it shows
                                       JAN'06 JAN'07 FEB'06 FEB'07 MAR'06 MAR'07........
PACK1
PACK2
PACK3
PACK4 for current year
PACK4 for prior YEar
Which is not desirable.
I only want value for Jan in one column
and for previous year and current year in different rows thats it.
If i remove Calendar year/month from columns there is no way I CAN DISPLAY MONTHS .
How to achieve this.
Please suggest.

Kartikey,
Rusty's suggestion wont work - using two characteristics for year and month will have the same effect as the position you are in at the moment.
ie..
2007     Jan.07     Feb.07    Mar.07   Apr.07
2006 -
Jan 06 Feb 06 Mar 06
If you have the posting period of 01 - 02 - 03 (just the period number only, no year) then your query will display
2007-01-02-03-04
2006-01-02-03-04

Multiprovider displays zero value for Key figure

HI,
Multiprovider contains 3 cubes, in which one keyfigure (YDAYS) presents in two cubes and assigned to multiprovider from two cubes. But iam getting zero value in the multiprovider level. But in the cube level getting the data. This problem iam getting in testing system.
When i compated Develoment system and Testing system everything is correct, mapping, assignment .
Any ideas what might be the problem
Thanks / Venkata

Check the report to see if it has any filters that is available in only one of the infoproviders. if thats the case then move the filter and make it restricted.
Use RSRT to see which infoproviders are being hit when you execute the query. Look in detail. I had the same problem once and careful investigation revealed a filter that was at the report level instead of kf restriction level.

Key Figure Display in Interactive Planning

Hello,
I am unable to display some of the key figures in SNP Interactive Planning. All these Key Figures are present in Planning book and are also included in the data view.
Is there any setting wherein I can control the display of Key figure although that key figure is present in Planning book and data view. For Example I have my "safety stock" key figure in my planning book and data view, but I am unable to see the "safety stock" key figure in SNP interactive planning.
Would really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Sarath.

Hi Visu,
Your answer is really helpful, thanks for that. But while I am trying to hide some key figures it is not allowing me to do so. It is either hiding all the key figures or unhiding all. Please let me know if why the system is behaving like this.
Thanks

Key Figure value in Cube showing with extra zeros

Loaded data into the cube. When I display the result
Key figure values are showing with 2 extra zeroes and Quantity value shaowing with 3 extra zeroes.
Original value
Price, Quantity, Sales Rev
2     1     2
3     2     6
When display value from cube
Price, Quantity, Sales Rev
2,00     1,000     2,00
3,00     2,000     6,00
Why zero is showing? How can I display the original value? In PSA, values are showing correctly.
Thanks,

Hi,
These are the zeroes after the decimal places. this is the property of the key figure.
In your report you can change the display value. In the display properties of the Key figure under the number of decimal places make it as 0. This will remove the zeroes.
Hope it helps.

Gaurav

How to filter rows according to calculated key figures in cube?

in my cube , i use V3 update for scheduleding lines of sales items.For example , in last delta update , valid row is last column ,other two rows make zero each other for key figures but i dont want to display first two rows in Bex.i want to get rid of these rows.because of not deleting previous data in cube, how to discard the rows , can i filter by calcuated key figures in query analyzer (like not display if sum of key figures zero)
Doc_No       Doc_Type   Reject_St          Item_No     Net_Price(Key_Fig)     Total_Pric(K_F)

if you do compression with <b>Zero Elimination</b> your problem will be sloved.

Report Painter - Characteristic cannot be combined with key figures

Hi,
I have added a new field (ZZABTEI) to the report structure CCSS and using that field as a characteristic in the report. But when I execute the report, it is giving the error "Characteristic ZZABTEI cannot be combined with key figures". Can anyone help me to solve this issue.
Thank you,
Rekha

There no code for this. I had to add the new field to CCSS structure. Then there were some configuration to be done. Then this message is got when the report in the report painter is executed. The details of this error message is as follows :
Characteristic ZZABTEI cannot be combined with key figures
Message no. GR410
Diagnosis
Characteristic ZZABTEI is being used in a report with a key figure that does not match this characteristic.
System Response
The system cancels generation.
Procedure
Check the report definition: the key figures used must be compatible with characteristic ZZABTEI. For examples of useful combinations of characteristics and key figures, see the SAP standard reports.
Technical explanation: The Report Writer table assigned to the report is defined as a view with multiple database tables (somewhat similar to Report Writer table CCSS) and a key figure used in the report refers to a database table which does not contain characteristic ZZABTEI.
Example 1 for table CCSS: If the 'cost' or 'quantity' key figures are used in a report (referring to tables COSP and COSS), you cannot use the 'Statistical key figure' (only occurs in table COSR) characteristic in the rows. On the contrary, using the 'Cost element' (tables COSP and COSS) characteristic is not permitted for the 'Statistical quantity' (table COSR) key figure.
Example 2 for table CCSS: If a report only displays line item data (key figures IE... or PE...), you cannot use the 'PERBL' characteristic, because it is only valid for summary data. You have to use the 'PERIO' characteristic for line item data.
Thank you,
Rekha

Use of key figure based on period

Hello All,
I have 2 key figures in my multiprovider, e.g. Actual Amount and Budget Amount. I need to display one of the key figure based on period. Reports have January to December columns. Now, if current period is October, I have to display Actual Amount from January to October. For future periods i.e. November & December, I need to show Budget Amount.
Can anoybody please provide a solution for this? How should I proceed?
Thanks and Kind regards,
Ajay

HI Ajay
Looks like you are creating a Capital Forecasting report. In order to show amounts period by period what you need to do is
- Create one key figure for actual amount which might be based on 0Amount key figure with Debit/Credit indicator as S. (If this is not the case then please do so according to your requirement)
- Create one key figure for Budget amount (according to your requirement)
- Create one customer exit "Formula" variable called actual indicator. This variable will be populated with a number of 1 to 12 for each record in your cube based on the user entered month. i.e. if user enters October. assume your cube has 12 records one for each month the first 10 records will be populated with 1 and the records for Nov and Dec will be populated with a 0.
- Create one customer exit "Formula" variable called Forecast indicator. This variable will be populated with a number of 1 to 12 for each record in your cube based on the user entered month. i.e. if user enters October. assume your cube has 12 records one for each month the first 10 records will be populated with 0 and the records for Nov and Dec will be populated with a 1.
- Create a calculated key figure that is defined as (Actual Amount)Actual indicator + (Forecast Amount)Forecast Indicator.
- Create twelve restricted key figures with the CKF created in the previous step restricted with the month (Jan to Dec)
- Add the above created twelve RKFs in the query.

Restricted Key figure - Displaying as normal number instead of currency

Hello,
I'm creating a restricted key figure using 0AMOUNT which of course is currency, however in the cube that I'm using 0AMOUNT is used for both Dollars and Quantities. The problem is 1) it is always displaying a $ symbol in front of the key figure and 2) it seems when I try to create a calculated key figure and try to add the 0AMOUNT to another 0QUANTITY infoObject I get an error (I'm presumming because I'm trying to add a number to a currency infoObject).
So my question(s) are 1) Can I format my new restricted key figure to always display as Quantity even though it's a currency info object
and 2) Can I do a calculated key figure adding a Currency InfoObject to a Quantity infoObject?
Thank you very much!
-Patrick

1) For your first question, u don't to have the currency dollar displayed for the restricted 0amount instead you want the unit of quanity.?if you want to do this,you could make use of Excel's format options i.e go to
format-->.Style->Select the stdBexInput item and make the appropriate settings.
2) You can use NODIM() function to add two different keyfigures.

Mixing Key Figures and Characteristics in 2004s Table Display

In a 3.x query definition using table display, I could put a key figure in the middle of the characteristics. The results would be columns Char1, Char2, KF1, Char3, for example. The same query upgraded to 2004s insists on displaying the key figure at the end of the characteristics, even with the Query Properties / Data Formatting set to Tabular View (in BEx Analyzer).
Any ideas on how to keep the key figure in the middle of the characteristics?
Thanks.

Hi,
New QD wont support table display. You need to use Report designer for this.
Thanks & Best Regards,

Key figure display in planning book with respect to Time bucket profile

Hi,
I am loading a key figure to planning area from the info cube for the current month. When I review the key figure in planning book with monthly time bucket profile it shows 85 for the current month. In the same planning book with weekly bucket profile, it shows 55 from the current week and future weeks and the remaining 30 goes into the past weeks of the current month.
How to make the total quantity 85 to show in the current and future weeks only.
thanks and regards
Murugesan

Hi Murugesan,
Within the Planning Area, the data is stored at the lowest level granularity that you maintain in storage bucket profile. Then during display, system will decide what data to show depending on what kind of time bucket profile you use in the planning view, and the time based disaggregation that you maintain for Key Figure.
In this below case, what time characteristic do you have in cube? Is it date, week or month?
If it's date, check how much KF data is maintained on the dates which belong to week which has days both in this month/last month e.g. if I talk about Dec 2011, how much data is stored 1,2,3 & 4 th of Dec, 2011.
This data would appear in Dec in monthly view, but in week, it would appear in the week starting 28th November.
If data is maintained in cube in weeks, then you need to calculate how time based disaggregation would show it to you in months.
If it's months, then you would need to find out how much data would go to the days in the past week of the month.
The time based disaggregation may be causing you some issues, but in that case, I would not expect 30 out of 85 to go in the past week, unless you have data in cube in days.
Data shown in weekly view for week starting 28th Nov should ideally be a small proportion of 85, unless you are using a time stream/fiscal year variant, due to which most of December is in holidays. The only other exception I can think of is that you have data in teh days mentioned above.
It would be best to help the business understand this disaggregation logic, rather than thinking of manipulating the data to shift to a later week.
If this logic doesn't explain your situation, then please provide the date/week/month at which you have data in cube, and what quantity.
Thanks - Pawan
