Error-Specify a value for variable

Dear All,
We upgraded our BW system to BI 7 SP 15. We are getting following error when executing queries in Bex.
Specify a value for variable Company Code
    Message no. BRAIN629
Diagnosis
    The variable cannot be empty. You must make an entry in the variable
    maintenance for variable Company Code.
System Response
Procedure
    Enter a value. Use the search help (F4) if necessary.
Procedure for System Administration
Interesting thing is that this error is faced by only 2 users in all upgarded systems.
We created test user with same roles and we are getting error for these test users as well. All other users can run these queries without any problem. When we gave them sap_allprofile, it worked but I dont think this an authorization issue as these user can execute reports in web without any error.
Second interesting thing is that, I applied note 1085822. This solved the problem. But on next day while closing this issue formally we found it is not working again and giving the same error.
I checked other notes but these are not suitable for SP15.
Any pointer/help will be well appreciated.
Regards,
Niraj

Hi All,
Resolved this issue by giving authorization obj S_BDS_D value display.

Error that "specify a value for variable posting period (single value entry

hi
My query is running testing fine in RSECADMIN under some username..but when i try and open it using analyzer (under same username) it gives me error that "specify a value for variable posting period (single value entry, mandatry)" it does'nt even asks to enter variable values and gives this error message.
However the same query appears to be working fine under different username.
plz advise.

Hi Abhinav,
Just do one thing compare the Roles of two different users for which Query is getting executed and not.
Check the Object S_RFC.
Compare the Objects detail for Both the Users.
Please Assign points if useful.

For Grant nnnnnn, specify a value for object FUND error -Urgent

I work in SRM area and my knowledge of Grants management is almost nil. We have a PO in SRM which has account assignment associated with a Workorder and Fund. When we look at the Grant it has all green lights and is confirmed by our FI/CO team everything is correct. But since R/3 is giving this message "For Grant nnnnnn, specify a value for object FUND" , I am sure there is something missing somewhere. Some additional information, the PO is from last fiscal year but it was changed for account assignment this fiscal year. But we checked the Fund itself is valid for some more time to come.
Any ideas on which transaction codes to see, what to look at etc. will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Manjula,
You have been facing this issue becuase the sequence of the fields while mapping them is not perfect, hence the 0date field is capturing some other data rather than picking the exact date value.
Check the order of fields and match it with the file (if you are loading data from a flat file)
Also, have a look at the weblog which talks about general mistakes in loading from file.

Error in parsing value for 'clip'. Declaration dropped

I have a site working for years, www.atlantida-adm.com.br, with the new version a javascript box with scroll doesn't work.
It still working on IE, but my customers are asking me why stop work on Firefox.
I use Firefox 15.0.1 as my default browser and I'm trying to do the same into the company.
The scroll box are titled as "AVISO"
The full message: Error in parsing value for 'clip'. Declaration dropped

This is FF being pedantic about code...
If you're trying to set a CSS Style measurement property with Javascript, you need to specify the measurement unit (eg "px", "%", "em", etc as you do in CSS) as a string. Passing an integer (without the measurement unit) into the property value causes the error.
Example:
<pre>
var w = 10; //Assign an integer to variable w
/* Now let's try passing w to set the CSS Width property of ''element'' */
''element''.style.width = w; // This Generates an error in FF,
// but works fine in IE (IE doesn't generate
// an error because it just assumes you mean "pixels"
// when you pass an integer in the script.)
''element''.style.width = w+"px"; // This works in both FF and IE. Will set the width to 10 pixels.
</pre>

Error: Missing initial value for session parameter

Hi,
I'm facing a problem while running the ETL process for Complete 11.5.10 Execution Plan in DAC Client. Some tasks are getting failed beacuse of the following error:-

When i checked the parameter file i can see the value assigned to the $DBConnection_OLAP. The same tasks ran successfully when i ran the ETL process for Complete 11.5.10 for the first time. I did not change anything after that and also all these are came built-in with the installation of Oracle BI Applications.
Please anyone give me an idea what is causing the problem.
Thanks,

in DAC > Run History > Task Details, query
Name = SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Temporary
Open Status Description, look for string -lpf, the file after it is the actual parameter file DAC send to INFA server. E.g
-lpf D:\DACTOPUS\Informatica\parameters\SDE_ORAR12_Adaptor.SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Temporary.txt
Open the parameter file, most likely the [session_name] does not match with SDE_ORA_Product_Category_Derive_Full or some parameters are missing.

Abort Could not determine a value for variable 0DAT from the authorizations

Hi All,
I encountered an error '/ Abort Could not determine a value for variable 0DAT from the authorizations\' when executing my query on a multiprovider in BW 3.5.
Can anyone help me in finding a solutionn to this issue.
Thanks,

Hi Kartik,
I am sorry as that note is for NW2004s. Please check if 0DAT variable installed from a business content? if not then I think thats the cause of the problem.
Hope this helps,

"You must specify a value for this required field" in SharePoint list

HI All,
I have a couple of taxonomy fields in my content type. When I try to add a new item with my content type and save, I'm getting an error message "You must specify a value for this required field" against each taxonomy field. I'm not sure what am
I missing. I deleted the content type and added that again to my list but still no luck. Can someone please help me out? Thanks.
Regards,
SC Vinod

hi
it depends how you updated existing field. We faced with the problem that update of taxonomy site column was not propagated to the lists. In Sharepoint when content type is bound to the list, new hidden content type is created for that list - you may check
it if will enumerate
SPList.ContentTypes property. And when you try to update site column changes may not be propagated to these list content types. In order to update it you need to get reference on a field from list content type and update if explicitly.

Could not determine value for variable 0P_FVAEX (or 0P_CTPCA)

I get the below error while accessing a query on the planning Info Cube. I used the SAP Exit variable Most Current Data (Transactional InfoCube) (0S_RQTRA) in the query for the Characteristic - Request ID (0REQUID) to extract the data from the yellow request too.
I do not use the below variables as in the below eror in my query at all. Please assist.
Diagnosis
This error diagnosis is specific only to the variables 0P_FVAEX or 0P_CTPCA !
Termination message BRAIN 632 appears:
Could not determine value for variable 0P_FVAEX (or 0P_CTPCA).
System Response
1. Operation method of SAP-Exit-Variables 0P_FVAEX or 0P_CTPCA
With queries from the CO application, both SAP-Exit-Variables look for an entry for 'controlling area'. With this controlling area from the selection screen, the SAP-Exit-Variables program reads the attributes for InfoObject 0CO_AREA (controlling area).
With queries from the FI application, the SAP Exit Variable 0P_FVAEX looks for an entry for 'company code'. With this company code from the selection screen, the SAP Exit Variables program reads the attributes for InfoObject 0COMP_CODE (Company Code).
0P_FVAEX determines the fiscal year variant (attribute 0FISCVARNT) from the attributes for 0CO_AREA (CO queries) or 0COMP_CODE (FI queries). 0P_CTPCA determines the currency type of the profit center local currency (attribute 0CURTP_PCA) from the attributes for 0CO_AREA.

Hello,
you need to take a closer look at your query. Somewhere you used one of the 0P_* exit variables, which work only for controlling related InfoCubes. Use your own variables.

Missing substitution value for variable [dispatcher.host]

Hello,
I'm getting the error message "com.sap.engine.deploy.manager.MissingSubstitutionException: Missing substitution value for variable [dispatcher.host]." if I'm trying to deploy an SCA file via SDM (remotegui.bat).
It seems that the problem is a missing variable setting. But I couldn't find any hints at the available SAP web sources which values needs to be set.
It would be really great if somebody could give me a hint which steps I need to do to solve this issue.
Many thanks in advance,
Steffen Zimmermann

Thank you.
Yes, it was a really not a default variable.
Replacement of the variables directly at the archive with the correct value did solve the issue.

Default value for variable are not within permitted value range (precalc)

Hello BW community
Issue:
I have created a variable (Characteristic Value/ Manual input-default value) and use the precalculated value set (details-basic settings). In the further variable definition I could select the precalculated value set in 'Default values', which I have defined beforehand in the broadcaster..
The precalculated value set in the broadcaster settings is just based on a master data query on 0CUSTOMER.
Error:
The variable gets the error E991/R9E Errors: Default values for variable 'XXX' are not within permitted value range.
The detail description of the error is: You defined default values for variable 'Sold-to party precalc value set for manuel input' that are not appropriate for the variable type; for example, a range is defined as a default value for a variable that only permits a single value.
So please has someone had the same issue and found out how to solve it? It would be excelent to get good solution for this issue.
Best regards and thanks
Christian

Hello,
Thanks for your response.
I should have mentioned that in my post. I tried this very first time. I thought that this is the place where you provide default value. But I got following exception at that time, so I thought, may be this is used for something else.

Adjusting Portal Pages throws "Specify a value for the property {0}"

I found (with the help of our friends at OSS) the setting I need to change with to adjust the Runtime frame size for Guided Procedures.
It's quite logical really, since GP is just a bunch of pages in the portal it would make sense to find them in the Portal Content option ... So there it was.
Content Administration > Portal Content
Search for content and go to Process Instance. The following part shows the 3 main content parts of the GP Runtime window. As you can see in the third container are the two elements that contain your content. "Content Area" and "Public Content Area".
Open those two areas (scroll down in the list in the middle, select one and press open) and change the value of Height Type from "Fixed" to "Automatic" or "Full Page".
This is where I get my error (see the link below for a screenshot as well): When I try to change a value, any value or just open for modifying and try saving again (without changing anything) I get this error:
[http://wow.telenet.be/delaware/property0.jpg]
Specify a value for the property
Now I don't know if there any portal expert watching this thread, but it seems as though all those pages have been wrongly configured from the start. And until I figure out the right configuration I won't be able to save them either way.
My question is two-fold:
1) Can anyone provide me with all the settings he has for this component so I can compare them to mine?
2) How do I fix this error? I'm assuming every page in the portal gives the same error?
Thanks in advance,
Frederik-Jan
