Does 'Multiple Single Values' work in BOBJ 4.0 Webi?

Experts,
We have a BOBJ 4.0 environment. We have a BEx variable defined as 'Multiple Single values' in BEx, so that the users can enter multiple materials at the same time to query as the input. The materials are like 02.200.100, 02.100.105, 02.100.402S etc.. In the BOBJ Webi prompt filter section, for the material, I am not able to input multiple single values for the material. I get a 'No values to display' message in the prompt section itself when I try to enter multiple materials separated by semicolon.
The users have around 500 different materials for which they want to see the data at the same time. They have this materials separated by semicolon in excel, and they want to copy that and enter this information in BOBJ prompt section (where it says to enter the values). I tried separating the materials by semicolon, comma - nothing worked out. When I enter each material individually, and search it with it key, I am able to see the material. So, doesn't 'Multiple single values' option work in BOBJ? I was able to see the data for those 500 materials each separated by a semicolon using the multiple single values option through BEx Analyzer and Portal. Isn't the same functionality provided by BOBJ?
Please find below my BOBJ prompt screen summary. Since 'Multiple single values' option was not working, I changed the BEx variable to 'Selection Option' in BEx, so in BOBJ we now have a 'Start Value' and a 'End Value' in BOBJ. Still my question is, whether BOBJ supports multiple single values option, so that the users can enter multiple values as input? The users want to enter the multiple materials in the "Enter Search Pattern" bar in the attached screenshot. Please let me know if this is feasible
Thanks for your time. Points will be rewarded!
Thanks,
G.

Hi Goutham R,
As of 4.0. it was by a limitation.
I have read some where that some users were able to meet the requirement by putting a semi colon at the end of each value in a excel and feeding it to the prompt but seems like you have already tried that.
Please see if you put a vote here in this link:

But I think this requirement can be met in Analysis edition for OLAP.

Passing multiple single values from R/3 BAPI to BW Query in VC

Hi Experts
I have a VC model where I am calling an R/3 BAPI which is returning a table of customer accounts. I'm trying to go directly from that BAPI to a BW Query and pass the table of accounts into the BW Query.
The BW Query has been set up with a variable to accept multiple single values for accounts, and I have mapped the correct output field from the BAPI to the correct input field on the Query.
The BAPI does not seem to be passing the table of accounts into the Query. If I hard code a single account in the mapping of the BAPI to Query call, the Query successfully returns the data I expect.
Can I pass a table of accounts to a BW Query in this way?
Many Thanks
Tom

Hi
Have you tried with 'Group & Combine' operator. Just add this operator & join your BAPI & BI Query to this. Then in ths configure of this oparator select the 'Accoount' field & gourp the data accordingly. Also specify the aggregation if required. & in the table/chart after the operator select the fields which you want to show.
I hope this is what you are looking for.

Variable multiple single value filled with customer exit used in FOX form.

Hi guys, I definitly need your help in the following scenario:
I have variable (multiple single value) filled in a customer exit and use it in web template. There it is used in the drop down box for selecting a special date in the analysis item. And there comes the first question:Why the results from the customer exit are written in the way "date1; date2; date3" in one line? They should appear line by line in rows. How can I influence that? I tried both data binding types, "variable" and "characteristic".
Now a button raises a planning function with a fox formula which should write the selected date (from the drop down box) in a customer table using "call function".
I always get the error, that I need to restrict the variable to "single value". Why do I have to do that and if necessary how can I do that? Other planning functions without the fox formula also work properly with using the selection from the drop down box.
I appreciate you help.
Kind regards, Anja.

Hi Vamsi.,
Try this code.
WHEN 'PREVIOUS_YEAR_1'.
IF I_STEP = 2. "after the popup of user entry
LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
WHERE VNAM = 'ZCURRENT_YEAR_PERIOD'.
break-point.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
WA_YEAR = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW+0(4). "Year
WA_MONTH = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW+5(3). "Period
WA_YEAR = WA_YEAR - 1.
CONCATENATE WA_YEAR wa_month INTO WA_FISC_PERD .
CONCATENATE WA_YEAR WA_MONTH1 INTO L_S_RANGE-HIGH .
L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'EQ'.
APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
ENDIF.
L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'BT'.
APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
endif.
Assing points if it helps you.

Passing Multiple Single Values from Sender Query to Receiver Query in RRI

Dear All.
We have 2 - Bex Reports ZBEX_1 & ZBEX_2
1. In ZBEX_1 having the fileds data like the below.
Account Doc. Number - Clearing Document --- Amount
12345                  - 65432                --- 100
12346                  - 54321               --- 50
2. In ZBEX_2 having the following data.
Account Doc.Number -- Amount
45342                     - 10
66666                        - 100
65432                       -   10
54321                      - 5
3. I am Traying to create RRI Between ZBEX_1 & ZBEX_2 , with Sender query as ZBEX_1 and Receiver query as ZBEX_2
If I drilldown from ZBEX_1 need to show the following output in the ZBEX_2
Account Doc. Number - Amount
65432                       -     10
54321                      -     5
i.e If Clearing Documnet in the ZBEX_1 is same as Account Doc. Number in ZBEX_2 those Account Doc. Numbers I have to show in the output of ZBEX_2 RRI Report.
Both the records I have to show at a time.
So please suggest me
1. How to pass Multiple Single Values to Next Query using RRI
2. How to Map Clearing Document to Account Doc. Number in RRI.
NOTE: Account Doc. Num length is same as Clearing Document
Please suggest me.
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran Manyam

Your scenario of passing values from multiple records in Source does not suit well for RRI Jumps.
In ZBEX_2 query, create a Replacement path variable on Clearing Document. In that Replacement path variable, use the Replacement with query option and choose the ZBEX_1 as the underlying query source.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/bd/589b3c494d8e15e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
When you execute ZBEX_2, what ever clearing document values that ZBEX_1 has will be passed through the replacement path variable as a filter to the ZBEX_2
Hope it helps!

Passing multiple single values to a Planning Sequence

Hi All,
      We are using BEx Analyzer for planning. We are passing multiple single values for a single variable , to a IP-planning sequence. Planning sequence is only taking the last value passed and ignoring the rest.
Multiple variable values are passed as below:
Name                            Index                 Value
VAR_NAME_1     1     ZCC
VAR_LINES     1     5
VAR_VALUE_1     1     A10000001
VAR_VALUE_1     1     A10000002
VAR_VALUE_1     1     A10000003
VAR_VALUE_1     1     A10000004
VAR_VALUE_1     1     A10000005
These cell references are passed to "command button" through the "Command Range" property.
The values are calculated correctly but for only one Cost center (last one in the list) , In this case only data for the Cost Center "A10000005" is processed and rest of the cost centers are ignored.
What am I missing here? I appreciate your help.

Parameter Accepting Multiple Single Values Only

I need to define a parameter that accepts multiple single values only but does not accept ranges or negations. Basically I only want the first tab of the Select-Options screen. Is this possible?

Hello,
Create a select-option as s_mara.
At selection-screen output.
loop at screen.
if screen-fieldname = s_mara-high.
screen-invisible = '1'.
modify screen.
endif.
Try this. Hope this helps.

How to pass multiple single values to parameter in planning function?

Hi!
I can not pass the variables (multiple single Values) from Input Layouts(BexAnalyzer) to Planning Function Types...Anyone have any idea for setting the parameter in the function types. I use the exit class CL_RSPLFC_BPS_EXITS.
My Parameter Type is Elementary and also use variables allowed

If you want to use the class as in a planning function type, proceed as follows:
1. Create an InfoObject that accepts the name of the function module as a characteristic value. We recommend that you create an InfoObject of type character with length 30 and indicate that this InfoObject is "Without Master Data".
2. In transaction RSPLF1, create a new function type. Chose the "Reference Data" option and enter the name of the class. This does NOT imply that reference data is read automatically, but results from the requirements for implementing the class.
3. On the "Parameter" tab page, create two parameters - one for the exit module and one for the init module. The parameters should be "elementary". Chose the InfoObject you created in step two as the dedicated InfoObject. The names of the parameters are determined from the values of constant P_C_NAME_EXIT_PARAM and P_C_NAME_INIT_PARAM.
4. If you require additional parameters in your function module (called exit parameters), you create these parameters as elementary parameters (with appropriate InfoObjects). Note an additional predefined parameter here - in many function modules, the name of the area is used from which the module is called. The area is not used in BI Integrated Planning but it may be the case that an area was created in BPS which only uses the current InfoCube. For this reason, you can create a parameter with the name specified in constant P_C_NAME_AREA_PARAM by specifying the name of this area to the function module. The value of this parameter is passed on to the function module in the interface as the value of the importing parameter I_AREA. Note that this technology can generally only by used for Basis InfoCubes and simple planning areas (not multi- planning areas or MultiProviders).
You can create additional elementary parameters as long as the names do not correspond to the predefined names. The class automatically recognizes the additional parameters and transfers them to table IT_EXITP in the function modules.
5. After you have activated the planning function type, you can create planning functions and fill the parameters accordingly.

How to avoid SYSTEM_NO_TASK_STORAGE with multiple single values variable

Hi experts,
I am trying to do a distribution with reference data standart SAP function.
Fields to be changed:
ZPDHIER2 (Economic Group II)
ZPDHIER3 (Economic Group III)
ZPDCLIENT (Client)
Fields for condition:
KEY FIGURE NAME
Fields for reference:
KEY FIGURE NAME
ZPDSTATUS (Status)
FISCPER3 (Fiscal Period)
The parameters group is like:
Fields for condition:
Key figure: ZM_070 (one of the key figures)
Fields for reference:
Key figure: ZMONT_TN
FISCPER3: 001
Status: DE
- "Only distribute not assigned" is checked
I do not want the data to be distributed by any ZPDHIER2, ZPDHIER3 and ZPDCLIENT so I have restricted these characteristics in the planning level by some variables. These variables are user exit type and return multiple single values.
The issue regarding this message is that when I execute this function, depending on the size of the data brought by ZPDCLIENT user exit variable, this dump might or might not occur. As for the testing I've done, i realize that if the number of clients exceed 500, dump will occur.
This multiple single values variable (or any other solution) must be prepared for 3900 clients, and this number is expected to increase.
Anyone have faced same problem?
Hope you can provide me some help regarding this issue.
Tanks in advance,
André Oliveira

Hi Wadih saad,
I think the memory is not suffcient to hold the load. Check your swap space and memory during the client export and also check whether there is sufficient space in the hard disk to hold the export files.
You must have calculated the client size by using the test run. This size must be available as free space in hard disk to do the export.
Make the available space and do the export it will work.

Interval selection and multiple single values in WAD Graphs

Hi ,
I am developing a Web Application Designer Graph by combining multiple reports. I have 0CALMONTH,Country as my variable selections. By default I am able to select only single values (January,Feb etc.) But I need to select intervals(From-To) for 0CALMONTH and Multiple Single values for 0COUNTRY .
I found the below link to use intervals by generating javascript
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/43/f5daaddfdb4c60e10000000a155369/frameset.htm
But the issue here is, I am not able to change 'From' value i.e. according to this document , Interval start is to be fixed in the script and I cannot change it later .But I want to change the interval start any time later. I am not sure how to achieve this using this option. Also I want to use mulitple single values variable for Country .
Kindly let me know if there is any other possible options or work-around available.
Thanks for your time.
Thanks & Regards,
Raja.

Hi Janine,
Thanks for your reply.I am using 7.0 Templates.Sorry to miss that part. I think I need to explain the issue little more . I am developing a Chart using Web Application Designer. My Chart should be having the Variable in the top of the page and I can able to see that variable . Even I am able to change the values after the execution. But this is working fine only for the Single values, for ex. I can change the selection from June to July in the Chart and I am getting the correct result in my chart based on the selection .
But the issue is ,I need to select Intervals for the month .Even though I created another variable with the option 'Interval' in the Query Designer , it is not showing the interval screen (From..To) ,instead still it is showing the single values option. I am using two different variables for these purposes and everything is correct with the query designer query. I am able to see the variable in the template,but I am not able to choose the interval values (only the intervals ,single value is ok)
Thanks for your response
Thanks & Regards,
Raja

Passing multiple single values in VC

I have a model where ii have 2 views Detail & Summary. Im passing some values from one table to another using a intermediate query. Its not passing multiple values. My wauery has variable set as 'Multiple Single Values'. If i pass a single value it works.
Im on VC FLEX2 SP14.
Cheers,
Vikram

Hi
Go to the properties of first table -> Selection -> Multiple selection. Then join output of this table to your intermediate query through variable port & then drag second table. Also in joining line -> assigned field use 'infoobject name_key' for every field for which you are passing the values.

Passing Multiple Single values in User Exits

Hello All,
I have a requirement where in, a user could enter either a single value, multiple single values or a combination of a range and single values.
This set of values need to be passed on to a variable with in a user exit. I have been able to get either one single value to pass or one single range. I am unable to pass on multiple single values or a combo of a range and single value from the user entry.
I would appreciate if anyone could help me with the structure of the code to pass multiple single values or combo.
I was wondering if I would need to pass the values into an internal table first and then pass it to the user exit variable. However, as I am not a strong ABAP resource, I am struggling.
Any and all help is deeply appreciated.
Warm regards
Sunil

Hello Marc,
There are two requirements which I was trying to address.
1. IN few queries, the users enter either a range of profit centers or multiple single values in the pop-up window. I need to pass those values from that variable to an variable of type USer Exit to derive partner profit center values with in the query.
For this I have been able to pass values for either a single value or a single range. I am unable to pass on values for multiple single values or a combo of a range and single values.
2. I am trying to create a query for the top 5 customers to be used in the Corporate Performance Monitor. However, when I am trying to use the variable of type "replacement path", the system does not allow me to release it for OLE DB for OLAP.
To obviate this problem, I was hoping to create a variable of typeUSer Exit" and then pass the values from the variable of type "replacement path" to this variable.
Is it a workable solution? I was hoping that the method to pass the values in both the above scenarios might be similar.
Please guide me.
Warm regards
Sunil

Multiple Single Values in Characteristic Variable

Hi,
I set up a characteristic variable in the Query Designer and opt for "multiple single values" . When I execute the query, the variable dialog box does not give me those check boxes which I can use to check which values I want to see in the report.
How come? Can you help me with that?
Thanks,
Sabine

Hi Sabine.
Did you remember to set the variable processing type as a user entry?
In the query designer do you see the characteristic restricted to a variable?

Subject: BW Query Variable – Multiple Single Values

I have set a characteristic variable on process chain id. In General tab, Variable is u201Cprocess by manual inputu201D.
In Details tab, I set:
Variable represents Multiple Single Values, Variable is ready for Input
When I run my query, I can select multiple process chain ids. Problem is query returns process chain information for only one value (first value entered for process chain id in multiple selections. I have verified process chain information exists for all the multiple values.
Appreciate any feedback.

Thanks, I do not find any other restrictions. If I simply remove the variable which lets me spacify multiple single values, I see
all the process chains. When I add this variable to query under retsriction and run the query, I see pop-up and I can enter multiple values, but only first one is being searched. There is probably some setting in variable definition somewhere that it only processes first value.
Is there a way in RSRT to show me entire ABAP code of the query.
I ran RSRT set some break points but it is kind hard to troubleshoot. If I had the entire code, I can try to understand what is being done.

Difference between Multiple single values and Selection option variables

Hi !
Can any one tell me the difference between variable types:
Multiple single values and Selection option?
I used each one of them for selecting values for a characteristic but could not notice a difference in choosing values.
Is there some difference in functionality or can they be used interchageably?
Regards,
Sri Harsha

Harsha,
When you go for slection option, in the variable input screen you will be having a button in the last where you can give your slections. There you can maintain either multiple single values and Multiple intervals or else not equal to also..
Just check out there... you will be having tabs for each..
