Displaying results for Hierarchies in BEx

Dear Bwers,
I have a query that has hierarchy and a calculated key figure(CKF). The CKF for the parent nodes now displays the total of all child nodes whereas i need the parent node to display the average of the child nodes. Is there a way to do this? All or any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Raj

Bjorn,
i tried that but i got this error message while i execute the query.
Calculating result as...' was not executed
   Message no. BRAIN141
iagnosis
   The function 'Calculate Results as ...' could not be used in all
   instances.
   The recalculation of a result cell always occurs based on the set of
   detatiled cells subordinated to this cell. This is the most detailed
   level of the drilldown. Therefore it is not posible to recalculate in
   hierarchical lists. The calculation of a results cell is not performed
   if a cell or column with an expand symbol is assigned beneath it.
   Otherwise the newly calculated result is changed every time one of its
   lower-level nodes is expanded. This is not supported for technical
   reasons and would also only confuse users.
   Note, however, that calculating with "Suppress Results" is always
   executed because the restriction described above does not apply in this
   case.
Thanks

No exclusion for hierarchies in BEx query

I am trying to determine why a hierarchy cannot be excluded in a BEx filter.
We have a profit center with a hierarchy and sub-hierarchies under the main hierarchy.
I have a BEx query setup so the profit center is in the Free Selection area. Under the Properties section the main hierarchy is set and the Activate Hierarchy Display option is turned on.
When I run the BEx report and access the filter, I can see the hierarchies and sub-hierarchies, but there is not option to exclude a sub-hierarchy (red dot).
Is this normal or am I missing something?
Let me know,
Bill

Hello Yi,
I don't know about the message in the trace. Try running the query in transaction RSRT first. Check the BW statistics in table RSDDSTAT. If QDBSEL and/or QDBTRANS are 0, then there's probably some incorrect restriction in your query.
You can also do a SQL trace and check if the big SQL statements return some records. There have been cases where the database did not work correctly (see SAP notes).

Values not getting displayed in the selection screen for Hierarchies?

Hi All,
Our system was upgraded from BW 3.1 to 2004s. The quality system displayes values when query result is filtered for a hierarchy infoobject but the production system does not display any values and sometimes throws an error 'The operation failed because of a server error. See system logs.' There is no changes done for hierarchies in both the systems.
Please let me know if anyone has had similar problems.

Do not display the overall result for one KF

Hi,
Question is in the title, here is an explanation of what I want to get with a simple BEx query (without adding extra vba)
2 KF : KF1 and KF2
2 Caracteristics : let's say 0PLANT and 0CALMONTH
0CALMONTH is displayed in line, 0PLANT in column
                     overall result    1701    1709    1710
0calmonth        KF1               KF2      KF2     KF2
01.2009           xxx               xxx       xxx     xxx
02.2009           xxx               xxx       xxx     xxx
03.2009           xxx               xxx       xxx     xxx
Basically what I want is to KF1 only for the aggregation of all plants and I want to display KF2 for each plant
Do you think this is possible ?
For now I only succeed in getting
                     overall result    1701    1709    1710
0calmonth        KF1 KF2      KF2      KF2     KF2
01.2009           xxx               xxx       xxx     xxx
02.2009           xxx               xxx       xxx     xxx
03.2009           xxx               xxx       xxx     xxx
I checked the forum for a while and did not find the answer (zero suppress do not work on result)
Thanks for you help,

Hi,
I didnt get exactly for what you are looking for ,
Chars : 0Plant, 0Calmonth....put these two in two new selections by creating a new structure in Rows
KF:        what ever the KFs you need put them in Columns in a structure,
then enable the Cell Reference, now you can hide the KF results by cell wise and/or column wise however you need,

Display Hierarchies in BEX Analyser

Hi Experts,
How to display hierarchies for the Infoobject in BEX. I have created a hierarchy in BW for the infoobject, How to display the same structure in BEX.

I assume you have loaded the Hierarchy. Now, in the Query designer, click on the infoobject and on the right panel, go to Hierarchy tab. Check 'Activate Hierarchy Display' and choose your hierarchy from the selection help.
You can expand your hierarchy to a certain default level viz. 1,2,3 etc based on the level to which you want to display your Nodes.

How to move result row for hierarchical character bellow corresponding rows

Hi expert,
in my query , I set a hierarchy for a character in row. but it result row is above rows, however I set all result row bellow corresponding rows in query property. also all other result rows display bellow corresponding rows. please tell me how to move result row for hierarchical character bellow corresponding rows.
Many Thanks,

Hi Yasinn,
you are right and you can make it even shorter:
LOOP AT ITAB.
Collect ITAB Into ITAB2.
EndLoop .
It will work much faster using field-symbols:
field-symbols:
<itab> like line of itab.
LOOP AT ITAB ASSIGNING <itab>.
Collect <itab> Into ITAB2.
EndLoop .
BTW: Kishore Babu Gummadi's suggestion about the field catalog does not make any sense, not regarding your question and not regarding a field catalog derived from DDIC fields: What is the DDIC defined output length of ekbe-wrbtr?

How to display attributes for a CHAR in the Excel file (BEx)?

Hi all,
I knew that I can display attributes for a CHAR (ex: attributes - address, phone#, zip code for CHAR-Customer) when I run Web- based report. But I cannot find this function after I export the file to Excel. In the context menu for excel file, I only see 'select filter'(but no display attribute values), drilldown, properties (for query). Is it something that I cannot have in the excel file for the BEx report?
Thanks
J.

Hi Bhanu,
In fact, I found that I can move IOs in the 'rows', 'column', and 'free CHARs' and so do end user by using 'local view'. That means every one can change the query definition, right?
For your last question, that was what I want to know. How can I prevent 'end users' change those query definitions? Is it about 'role' setting, right? But I am not the one to do 'role' setting.
Thanks for help. (I will asign points when the SDN system works)

SAP Bex: Not Enough cells to display result

Hi,
In BW 3,5 Analyzer, if user typed some values next to the reported columns and then tried to drill down on columns say characteristics profit center, the system used to display a message with options like below:
''SAP Bex: Not enough cells to display result
-TO extend the result areas to the right:
0 Overwirte the existing cells
0 insert cells next to the results area
0 insert entire columns''
After upgrading the query to 7.0, the Analyzer does not pop-up this information and it simply overwrites the existing cells.
Can you please advise, if there are some settings in BI 7.0 which can enable pop-up of this information window with above options?
Please suggest.
Best Regards,
UR

Hi,
Try setting the cells which are not to be overwritten as formulas and refreshing them which may not overwrite those cells.

Hierarchies in BEX

Hi,
i have a problem with displaying hierarchies in BEX. I have created a hierarchy on infoobject (hierarchy is active) and I have added this infoobject in a cube. I have created an report on a cube and I want to display hierarchy in this report.
The hierarchy on infoobject seems to be OK in BW, but in BEX it displayes only unassigned values and the direct values - not a hierarchy.
I have filled in a cube values, which correspondes "NODENAME" in hierarchy on infoobject.
Is it OK?
Thans for help
Radka

Hi,
it seems does not help.
But I have another question, the hierarchy is created using infoobjects as nodes, but I have filled in a cube only the infoobject with hierarchy. It is neccery to fill somewhere the hierarchy nodes, for example in atributtes of infoobject or so.
Thanks for help
Radka

Pop-up is displayed requesting for a WAS user id and password

Hi SDN,
I created a BEx iView based on Template-id. I am using single sign-on with user mapping. When i logged on to portal everything is working fine but initially a pop-up is displayed requesting for a WAS user id and password of the BW system.
I have mapped the Portal user with the BW user-id and password.
Can any one suggest me how suppress initial pop-up.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Basha

Hi Basha,
When you run the report from SICF you will definitely get the popup for authentication, as you are sending request directly on BW WAS.
The reason behind you are getting popup in portal is that you have not used FQDN for BW server in WAS properties of System Object. Try to maintain same domain name for Portal and BW server.This you can easily achieve by modifying host file.
e.g. <EP server IP> EPserver.abc.com
<BW server IP> BWserver.abc.com
Use "BWserver.abc.com" in WAS hostname under system properties.
Do let me know the result.
Thanks,
Amol.

How can I display results data including history

Hello.
I am writing a report in Oracle Reports Builder to produce a student's statement of results and have two parameters for course instance and academic year.
If user enters course instance and academic year the report has to display all results of students where academic year is less than or equal to the academic year
entered, for the course instance entered as well as the other course instances a student took before that.
The report should show all results for the previous years and the different course instances within the same course for every student who is enroled on the course instance entered up to the academic year entered.
E.g. if student did c-inst1 in 2009, c-inst2 in 2010, c-inst3 in 2011, if user enters 2011 for parameter academic year and c-inst3 as course instance, the report should display all the results of students starting from 2011 going back to 2009 for all the three course instances c-inst1, c-inst2 and c-inst3.
My question is: What conditions should I put in my report in order to be able to show the required results? Please assist. Thanks.

u mean this?

Highly frustrated with Outlook 2013 Search People box bugs - Multiple Name Results for Same Contact & Inconsistent Results

The Outlook 2013 "Search People" box does not function properly. It frequently displays incorrect results or a mess of duplicate results. I've reported previous issues about this and consolidating my posts into one (with screenshots this
time). Hopefully this message will be forwarded to or seen by the Outlook programmers. It really needs to be fixed.
Outlook 2010 and other prior versions worked perfectly. You search for name, you get ONE result with the info you're looking for. FAST AND EASY. But with Outlook 2013 Microsoft has created a heck of a mess resulting in huge frustration and productivity loss
with such simple but important tasks.
I have hundreds of contacts stored in my Outlook address book, and they all have COMPLETE contact info added.
One major issue that I'm experiencing in the new Outlook 2013 is that I now get average of 4 or more duplicate name results appearing for the same contact. And each result contains different and incomplete contact info, making it impossible for me to quickly
find the basic info I'm looking for. The cause of this issue is that Outlook 2013 now provides results from not only your local address book(s), but it also shows results based on your email history and social media accounts setup.
And there's no way to turn this off, or at least specify what folders and/or accounts the People Search box should use.
To make matters worse, the Microsoft developers conveniently forgot to add some form of an indicator (like a small icon besides each name result in the list) that clearly indicates what result is from what source. So you must manually click on each
result one at a time and repeat the search until you locate the correct one.
For one specific example, I have a contact stored in my local address book called
Infusionsoft. When I type "Infusionsoft" in the People Search box to quickly find a phone number, Outlook 2013 shows me 7 results with the same name. See the screenshot below:
As you can see in the screenshot above, every result just says "Infusionsoft", so I have to manually click on each name result one at a time and repeat the process until I find the correct one from my address book. This same thing happens with other
random contacts.
From what I can tell, Outlook is pulling results based on based on recent emails I've received from different people with "@infusionsoft.com" in their email address. So the first result shows "[email protected]" (just the email
address), the second result shows "[email protected]", the third result shows "[email protected]" and so forth. I don't want Outlook to show all of that. I just want what's in my address book!
And you would think that the last result would be the correct one from my address book, but no. Sometimes its the 5th result, and other times it's the 3rd or 7th result. So there's no freaking order of things here.
We simply need the ability to turn off searching of email history and other accounts when using the People Search box. Problem fixed.
(And please don't tell me that I need to "link" every incorrect result to one main contact. You shouldn't expect everyone to have to tediously link any and all results that appear to a record. ESPECIALLY when 5+ results for each contact appear regularly.)
ISSUE 2: Some names must be typed in a different way for the Search People to locate them
Another big issue I'm having with the Search People box is that some name searches don’t show the correct result, unless I search for their names in a different way.
For one specific example, I have a contact stored in my address book named "Dave Johnson". When I type "Dave Johnson" in the Search People box, one result appears, but it's just his email address, only. It's not the result that's stored in my Outlook address
book with his phone number, addresses, etc. Screen shot below:
If I type in Dave's name reverse order (Johnson Dave), no results are found at all.
Now if I just type in just"Johnson" all by itself, it finds Dave's correct result (the one stored in my Outlook Address Book). Along with everybody else that has "Johnson" in their name (see screenshot below)...
I double-checked how I have Dave's name programed in my address book, and it's in there as "Dave Johnson" for both the Full Name and File As fields.
Also, the name order shouldn't make any difference when using the People Search Box anyway. Sometimes I can find people by Last Name, First Name or First Name, Last Name. Only with random contacts does it get difficult finding their info and
I have to do strange things like this to find them from the People Search box.
ISSUE 3: Some Search People results only yield an email address only.
For other random contacts, some search results only yield an email address with no other contact details. But I can open the persons contact card from the address book manually, with the same email address shown! Screenshot below...
In the screenshot above, I have outlined the Search People box results in red, and the Address Book results in green. You can clearly see that "Robert White" is a contact stored in my local address book with full contact details, but the Search People result
only shows his email address! Again, it's not consitent. It's hit or miss with different people.
ISSUE 4: Some results just don't appear at all, but they are in the address book
Another issue I'm experiencing with the People Search Box is that some people simply cannot be found. But I can see their contact info just fine if I click on the "People" tab down at the bottom of the page and type in their name in the "Search Contacts"
field. Why can't the People Search box find certain people? I opened up their contact details and cannot find a single thing that would prevent them from showing up in results.
These are clearly serious bugs that need to be fixed. And I'm shocked as to how this got missed--or ignored during alpha and beta testing. I see the "idea" behind the developers having the Search People box search everything outside of the
address book, but in real world application this causes a heck of a lot of problems & confusion, and it needs to be fixed ASAP.
For technical details, I have Outlook 2013 running on two computers using hosted Exchange 2010. One system is Windows 7 and other is Windows 8. The same problems occur on BOTH computers. As far as my Outlook account setup, I have all contacts stored in the
main address book (no sub-folders or other folders).
Can someone help communicate this message to the Outlook developers??? The "Frown" button limits me to 100 characters and one image. There's no way I can communicate this level of detail and steps to duplicate in 100 characters!

Thanks for your reply.
1) The instant search boxes in each individual page work just fine. If I am on the People page and type in a name in the "Search Contacts" field, it searches my contacts and displays the results that I want. But I should not have to leave whatever screen
I'm in to find people now. In Outlook 2010 and earlier versions, I could be on the calendar page and then search for a contact without clicking off the calendar completely. For productivity-sake, it's a huge waste of time and hassle now.
2) I'm familiar with how contact linking works, and quite frankly it's a huge mess in general. I NEVER create multiple contacts for the same person. I get that Outlook 2013 get confused now when it detects a LinkedIn or Facebook account for the same person
already in my Outlook address book, but we need to have options that allow us to turn off results from some or all social networks. This is a big part of the problem.
Think about it this way - The average person has 150+ LinkedIn connections, and more for Facebook. Many people today have accounts for both and they are setup with the same email address. When Outlook 2013 has to scan all the networks IN ADDITION to your
local address book(s), it's a no brainer that it can get very confused trying to display results.
Another big part of the problem is that Outlooks new search system also scans your email history. I receive emails from people who use multiple email addresses, or emails from companies with multiple reps or ticket systems that send you a unique
ticket ID # ending in the same email address domain. Now Outlook displays people search results based on everything under the sun in my email history. This is beyond frustrating (see my "Infusionsoft" screenshot above in the first post).
Again, I want to stress that for the search examples I referenced, I only have one entry in my Outlook address book for each person. And that's all I want to find when I search for people--what's already in my own address book!
In summary:
We need an OPTION to turn off searching external networks when using the People Search box
We need an option to tell Outlook to not scan email history for people search results (I think this needs to be disabled entirely actually. It's not helpful at all)
There should be a fixed priority for displaying people search results, with local address book results FIRST, followed by social network results.
There should be a clear icon/indicator next to each result that gives you a clue as to where the result is coming from. Your address book? Facebook? LinkedIn? We should not need to click on each result to get a hint as to where it's coming from.
Work out the bugs in general with the new search system.
One other thing that I didn't mention is that the Search People box also shows results for people I'm not even "friends" or connected with on the different social networks. But I've noticed that some people use the same email address for those networks that
I already have programmed for them in my address book, which is why Outlook sometimes shows me these results. Does that make sense?
I'll try rebuilding the index, but after testing Outlook 2013 on 3 different machines so far and seeing the same results (all slightly different results on each machine and very inconsistent), I doubt this will address the issue.
