Doubt on Rows and Coloums in BEx Query Designer.

Hello, Experts.
I have a Doubt in BEx Query Designer.
In the Rows I have a Fiscal year Period,  if the user enters the Fiscal year period for e.g. : 001/2006  .  
in the columns i have  forecast for the Fiscal year period which user entered ( 001/2006 ),   and we have another column pervious ( Prior )fiscal year period ( 001/2005 ). 
My Questions is ,  as we are Restricting with 001/2006 will the query retrieve the values of 2005 or not?
Thanks in Advance .
Sharp

yes i am  Doing Offest.
I moved this Fiscal year Period to Free char,   and i Restricted with Pervious Fical Year period and Fical year period .  it worked.  but
when i kept this in Rows and deleted Previous Fiscal Year period .  it is displaying blanks.   in prior years forecast.
is it because i am Ristricting it to only fical year period  which user entered
         Colums-->  Forcast ( User Entered year )          Prior year
Rows
Fiscal year period
  Fiscal year period( user enterd )
Thanks

  • Structres and cells in Bex query designer?? urgent plz

    hi experts,
    could you please give me the useful info. regarding structres and cells with the examples.
    thanks in advance
    regards
    vadlamudi

    1. In the Query Designer, choose Cells (open) from the toolbar or use the menu option under View to reach the Cell Editor functions.
    2. You can now use four different functions.
    New Selection
    u2022 Select a cell in the Cells dialog box, and use the right mouse
    button to choose New Selection.
    u2022 Define the required selection.
    u2022 Enter a description for the selection and choose OK.
    New Formula
    u2022 Select a cell in the Cell dialog box, and use the right mouse button to choose New Formula.
    u2022 Define the required formula. Enter a description for the formula
    and choose OK.
    New Cell Reference
    Each cell that you define can be reused in formulas. If you want to reuse the value of the implicit generic cell definition that automatically occurs at the intersection of two structure parts of a query, select this cell in the Cell Definition dialog box, and choose New Cell Reference using the right mouse button. The description arising from the two structure parts
    automatically appears in the cell. You can now refer to this cell.
    Additional cells
    Click on the cell adjacent to the Help Cells and choose the required option if you need additional cells for auxiliary selections or formulas which are not already included in the query structure you have defined from the construction of rows and columns.

  • Problem with Queries Structures in Bex Query Designer and Universe Designer

    Hi everyone,
    I have a problem when i try to do a Universe from a Bex Query Designer.
    When I use a Characteristic Restrictions in a Structure, the universe only show me the structure without the objects inside it.
    EJ:
    1) Bex Query Designer
    Colunms
    (Structure) ZSRT_123
                          - (Characteristic Restrictions) Reg Guayana
    >          (InfoObject)     0Product = 'XXX'
    >          (InfoObject)     0Country = 'YYY'
         - (Characteristic Restrictions) Reg Caracas

    >          (InfoObject)     0Country = 'BBB'
    Rows
    (Structure) ZSRT_456
                   (Key Figure)     Net Sales
    2) Universe designer
    (Class) ZSRT_456
    >(Measure)      Net Sale
    (Class)     ZSRT_123
    >(Dimension)      ZSRT_123
    The universe dont translate the two Characteristic Restrictions in the structure ZSRT_123.
    Any information would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi,
    I assume that you are using BOE XI 3.1 SP2.
    We have added an option in SP2 to generate or not the L00 level.
    Unfortunately this option applies not only on characteristics but also on hierarchies, hierarchies variables and structures: that's the reason why you have no elements belonging to the structure generated.
    I recommend to always generate L00 in order to have your structure generated correctly.
    This issue will be fixed in SP3.

  • Error while trying to Open and Delete a BEx Query in Query Designer.

    Hi Experts,
    I have been facing this issue with BEx Query in Designer mode for a couple of days now in Development Environment in BI 7.0.
    I would like to Delete an unwanted BEx Query because I need to give it's name to another BEx Query.
    Whenever I try to Open this Query in BEx Query Designer to Delete, it gives out an error saying:
    "An error occurred while communicating with the BI server.
    As a result of this error, the system has been
    disconnected from the BI server.
    Detailed Description:
    STOP: Program error is class SAPMSSY1 method : UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
    STOP: System eror in program CL_RSR and form GET_CHANMID-01 - (see long text)"
    Details text is as below:
    Diagnosis
    This internal error is an intended termination resulting from a program state that is not permitted.
    Procedure
    Analyze the situation and inform SAP.
    If the termination occurred when you executed a query or Web template, or during interaction in the planning modeler, and if you can reproduce this termination, record a trace (transaction RSTT).
    For more information about recording a trace, see the documentation for the trace tool environment as well as SAP Note 899572.
    I have tried with SAP Note 899572, but still it's the same.
    Has anyone faced similar issue? Could you please let me know if you have better ideas or solution?
    Your time is much appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Arun - Thanks a million. You saved me Nine. It worked.
    Could you also please tell me how to rename (Technical) a Query or is it still "Save the Query As" the only way...?

  • Results based on From and To value in Bex query designer.

    Dear all,
    We are using BI7.00. In one of our report which pertains to PM user wants to get the details of number of breakdowns which falls in the value range 0 to 1 hours.
    I created a condition which has 2 variables, one is From value and the other is for the To value (since user wants to enter both the limits). I have written a condition that if the breakdown hour is greater than or equal to variable1 and less than or equal to variable2.
    Using the above condition if the query is run, i am not getting the desired output. The values avaialble in the report are 0.65,0.78,1.30,7.38,0 etc., when i give 0 to 1 i should get the values 0.65,0.78 and 0 but instead report displays "No valid results".
    I changed the condition and selected "Between" variable 1 and variable 2 - yet no change in the query.
    To my knowledge i foresee that system is not able to recognize the decimal and hence provides details only based on the whole numbers.
    How to get my requirement achieved in the Bex query designer.
    Experts suggestion with steps will be very useful to solve my problem.
    Regards,
    M.M
    Edited by: Magesh Magesh on Dec 26, 2008 11:28 AM

    Hi Magesh,
    I think you could try one more way.
    Create a formula inserting your two formula variables for limits .(FV -  are ready for input ) .
    The formula would return the result as 1 or 0 because it would have boolean condition in it.
    You could then place a condition in the query designer to only show all records where the value of the formula key fig is 1.
    You formula A would look like
    ( KF > FV1) AND (KF < FV2) * 1.
    And in the condition put A EQ 1.
    You could scale the key figures as well and multiply the limits mentioned by the users in FV1 and FV2 if decimals are still not recognized by SAP.(scaling)

  • Difference between  aggregation and calculation tab in BEx Query Designer

    HI,
    I am using BEx Query Designer for my report, for the key figures in the coloumn area i slected one numeric key figures, in  the properties tab i found aggregation tab and calculation tab.
    I need to sum up the total values for that particualar coloumn, when i used calculation tab i found to sum all the values for a particular coloumn, then what is the use the aggreagation tab?
    I not able to used that Aggregation tab it is showing as a hidden fields...
    can any one tell me whats the exact difference between these tabs and when we need to use which tab?
    With Regards,
    Thanesh Kumar.

    Hi Thanesh Kumar,
    I moved this thread from forum Data Warehousing to Business Explorer since it is a query related question (as SDN moderator).
    I could explain to you the difference between these two tabs.
    For "calculation" tab, it changes the display of result and does not change the calculation logic.
    It means that, if this key figure is used further in formula, still the original number (without "calculation" tab setting)  is used for further formula calculation.
    For "aggregation" tab, it changes the real calculation logic.
    The system takes the setting as the aggregation rule for records.
    The most common aggregation rule is of course summation. If you set to e.g. Average here, the system does the
    Average instead of summation when aggregating records. And the Average value will be taken for calculation
    in further formulas or other calculations.
    For "aggregation" tab, you could only use it for CKF (calculated key figure) or formula and you could not use it for
    a basic key figure. That should be the reason why you see it greyed-out.

    Patricia

  • Drill down ( Collapsible Row ) Report in BEx query designer ?

    Dear Friends!
       I am supoosed to create a report drill down report for Purchasing History to be precise,  I know that we can have drill down feature using heirarchy but is it possible for Us to have PO & PO item heirarachy ? or any other way to do drill down reporting in SAP BEx Query designer ?
    like my current report is : -
    | Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
    Now I am supposed to create a report  in which
    normal view
    | Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | |> PO Number| .... ( keyfigures) | Payment |
    drill down or collapsible view ( please consider the heading as data I am not talking about dynamically change of  headings ).
    | Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | V PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
    is there anyway to design the report in above mention manner ? you any input will be appreciated greatly.
    Thank you so much!
    Regards
    Naim

    Hi Naim,
    usually we don't do the transactional data as hierarchy.  not sure the reason behind your requirement.
    we can do one of the below :-
    1. To have the default view as
    | Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
    and then user can drill down on rest of the characteristics for detailed view later on.
    2. or if they don't want to drill down on characteristics;-
    we can build 2 reports , one for header level information and then jump to second query for detailed information(item level) using RRI.
    first query:
    | Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant | | PO Number| .( keyfigures) | Payment |
    second query:
    | Vendor | Purchasing Organisation | Purchasing Group | Plant |  PO Number | Item | Material / Service | Description | .... ( keyfigures) |
    Let us know if this works out?
    Regards,
    Sakthi.

  • Future of BEx Query and BEx Query Designer

    Folks, I understand SAP's future reporting tools is BO suite. All of us need to move to the new tools which are better or more reliable in 2010. Meanwhile our customers are reluctant to use BEx tools for any new development. Being on the techi side I dont see how BEx Query will be replaced by Voyager or Polestar or WebI or Crystal. I just need to report on my multiprovider without a universe layer. Have any of you experts come across documentation that layed out future of BEx tools explaining the end of support period? I have see roadmaps for tool availability but no dates for end of support.
    Thanks in advance.

    AFAIK,
    Bex Query designer and BEx query will continue... Polestar might be proposed as an alternative for BEx but then it is meant for ad-hoc analysis ... but BEx query and Query designer have specific query requirements also...
    Voyager etc will start coming in...

  • Division in bex query designer

    Hi experts,
    I have a strange problem in bex query designer. I am trying to calculate margin in % but the calculation gives the wrong result.
    The two figures I try to calculate are -25124 and -91248 (figures in 1000 NOK)
    The result should be (-25124/-91248)100 = 27,53* (when formula entered in excel)
    I have tried the following in Bex query designer
    -25124 %A -91248 = -0,02753%
    (-25124/-91248)*100 = 0,02753
    What might be the problem here?

    Thanks again for your answer,
    I will try to explain my report (requirement from the business user)
    Actual (KF)----
    Budget (KF)       
    Sales-- -91248--
    -77153         
    FSP-- -25124--
    -18918
    Margin  % -
    (FSP Actual/Sales Actual) 100---(FSP Budget/Sales Budget)100
    Dim
    Dim
    Result
    The margin is calculated in the cells in the bex query designer to differentiate between actual and budget. There is no option to calculate the margin in the columns as this would influence all other rows aswell.

  • Condition (Defintion) in BEX Query Designer

    Hi Experts,

    Hi,
    <b>● All Characteristics in the Drilldown Independently</b>
    This setting allows you to apply a condition in a general way. Depending on which characteristics you use in the drilldown, you obtain different results.
    Note that the characteristics that are already used in an active condition for characteristic combinations are not included.
    This option is optimized for ranked list conditions, but can also be used for threshold value conditions with relative values.
    <b>●Most Detailed Characteristic Along the Rows or Columns</b>
    This option is optimized for threshold value conditions. The condition is applied to the most detailed characteristic of the rows or columns.
    Note that this function is not supported when executing the query in the BEx Analyzer. For more information, see Restrictions in the BEx Analyzer.
    <b>● Single Characteristics and Characteristic Combinations</b>
    This setting allows you to evaluate the condition for characteristics or characteristic combinations defined for specific drilldowns only. You can select any characteristic (of the characteristics used in the query in rows, columns, or in the free characteristics) or a characteristic combination.
    ○       If you only want to evaluate the condition when a certain characteristic is present in the drilldown, select this characteristic.
    ○       If you want to evaluate the condition for characteristic combinations, select multiple characteristics.
