Error while running a query-Input for variable 'Posting Period is invalid

Hi All,
NOTE: This error is only cropping up when I input 12 in the posting period variable selection. If I put in any other value from 1-11 I am not getting any errors. Any ideas why this might be happening?
I am getting the following error when I try and run a query - "Input for variable 'Posting Period (Single entry, mandatory)' is invalid" - On further clicking on this error the message displayed is as follows -
Diagnosis
Variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory) is used as a lower limit (X) and an upper limit () in an interval selection. This limit has the value #.
System Response
Procedure
Enter a different value for variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory). If the value of the other limit is determined by another variable, you can change its value also.
Procedure for System Administration

OK.
Well, if the variable is not used in any interval selection, then I would say "something happened to it".
I would make a copy of the query and run it to check if I get the same problem with period 12.
   -> If not, something is wrong in the original query (you can proceed as below, if changes to original are permitted).
If so, then try removing the variable completely from the query and hardcode restriction to 12.
   -> If problem still persists, I would have to do some thinking.
If problem is gone, then add the variable again. Check.
   -> If problem is back, then the variable "is sick". Only quick thing to do, is to build an identical variable and use that one.
If problem also happens with the new variable, then it's time to share this experience with someone else and consider raising an OSS.
Good luck!
Jacob
P.S: what fisc year variant are you using?

    However the same query appears to be working fine under different username.
    plz advise.

  • Database Error while running the query.

    Hi,
    While running the query in webi rich client i am having a "database error IES 10901 and WIS 10901" , it is showing that the data source name not found and default driver is not specified.
    I am trying to generate report from efashion universe which is in .unx format, same client version and universe is running fine on another machine (webi rich client).
    PS: The above mentioned universe is running fine on my BI launch pad, the problem is with webi rich client only.
    Please help!!

    Hi,
    Which Database your are using .
    As explained by Yuvraj You need to install driver for specific database .
    Ask for client or (your Database ) driver from administrator .
    After installation you can see your database Driver in following path
    Control Panel\System and Security\Administrative Tools\Data Sources (ODBC)
    See in Drivers Tab .
    If you are using oracle & client is install on your system then Check TNS Names File in NETWORK folder .

  • Error while running a Query on webi

    Hi Folks
    I just installed a BOBJ edge standard 3.1 and trying to configure and test it  the very first time, I have following issues if you can advise the solution., I would really appreciate.
    1. when i try to create a test query on Webi Rich Client and and run query, I get the follow messge:
    A databse error occured. The database error text is : [Microsoft] [ODBC Microsoft access driver] could not use (unknown);
    file already in use (WIS 10901)
    2. The other issue I have is that when i create a test query on the webi (infoview side) and try to run the query I dont see any result like column, rown or fields, all I see is a solid yellow block which I believe is because of kmissing Java connector. can you guys pls let me know if this is the reason I dont see the report or Is there any other reason for that.
    I would appreciate your help on this.
    Regards

    Hello,
    What type of database did you build your universe on? Access? SQL Server? or other? You would need to go into the universe you are trying to use for the report go into File, Parameters, and see what your connection is, and while you're there, click "test" to be sure it is working. If not, that is your problem. If it is, but the report still is not working, either way, you will need to go into Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Data Sources (ODBC) and set up a system DSN that links to the correct database. Again test it to be sure it works. Then make sure the universe has a connection that uses this same DSN. The report should run.
    Hope that helps.

  • Error while running FX restatement process for currency translation

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing errors while trying to run FX_Restatement process to do currency translation.
    I am having the error: RUN_LOGIC:Member u201CXXXu201D not exist => where XXX is any currency I am trying to convert.
    Below is the script logic (FXTRANS.LGF)used.
    *RUN_PROGRAM CURR_CONVERSION
          CATEGORY     = %FX_CATEGORY_SET% 
          CURRENCY     = %FX_INPCURRENCY_SET% 
          TID_RA = %FX_TIME_SET%
          OTHER = [ENTITY=%FX_ENTITY_SET%]     
          RATEENTITY = GLOBAL
          //For More than one other scope parameters: OTHER = [ENTITY=%FX_ENTITY_SET%;INTCO=%INTCO_SET%...]
    *ENDRUN_PROGRAM
    I am working on BPC 7.5 NW version.
    Can you help us with this?

    For the currency you are converting to: XXX
    INPUTCURRENCY dimension must have XXX as a member with "REPORTING" property set to "Y"
    and
    RPTCURRENCY dimension must have XXX as a member with "REPORTING" property set to "Y" and "CURRENCY_TYPE" property set to "R"
    It needs to be in both dimensions with the right properties.  INPUTCURRENCY is the currency dimension in the RATE cube, RPTCURRENCY is the currency dimension in the financial or consolidations cube.

  • 'ORA-01722: Invalid Number' error while Running a Query

    Hi,
    I'm trying to run a query built on a DSO. The DSO has a field 'Start Date'. This Start Date InfoObject has a reference Char as 0DATE.
    This Start Field has blank values due to which I'm getting the ORA-01722 error. I came across many threads with same topic of discussion. As mentioned in one of the Threads I have written a program to update 'Start Date' with 00000000. The code wriiten is "UPDATE /BIC/AZ_MONINV00 SET /BIC/ZSTR_DTE = '00000000' where /BIC/ZSTR_DTE = ' '.
    Now when I see the data in the active data table of DSO the blank value is replaced with '00000000'.
    But If I right click on the DSO click on display data the 'Start Date' field is blank. And now the Query also gets executed without any error. But in the output of the query the 'Start Date' Field has "#" values.
    Can anyone suggest on how can I make these "#" values appear as 00000000 in the report?

    In this case, you have to write a macro to avoid # in Analyzer.
    Right Click-->Display Data will show data from Active table of DSO only.
    If you don't want to show any blank date values in the report, you can exclude in Filter in Query.

  • Error while running the query on web.

    Hello Friends
    I am getting the error message "Result set too large (1056716 cells); data retrieval restricted by configuration (maximum = 500000 cells)" while executing the query on the web in BI 2004s. How can this be resolved.
    Any help in this regards is appreciated and points will be assigned.
    Thanks.

    Hi Rishi,
    Maybe your queries returned too large volume of data.
    So, if possible,
    1, create some filter on your query  to reduce the transferred data
    2, chaange your query structure (reduce the items on the column or low)
    and your error message seemed to be generated from BEx Analyzer...
    does web report have "cells"?
    if BEx Analyzer, the limit of cells volume is inneviable.
    and if you use BEx Web, do you know note1008619?
    this note describe about the limit of data volume on web applications.
    Hope it help,

  • Reg: Query Problem for New Posting Period

    Hi Xperts,
    While I try to Map the A/P Invoices with their respective Outgoing Payment,
    I used the following Query and it's Query Printlayout
    SELECT T0.DocNum [Payment#], T0.DocDate [Payment Date],
    T0.CardCode, T0.CardName, T1.InvoiceId, T2.DocNum [AP Inv#],
    T2.NumatCard [Bill No.], T2.DocDate [Bill Date], T1.selfInv,

    WHERE T0.Cardname='[%0]' and T0.DocDate='[%1]' and
    T0.DocNum='[%2]'
    I got the above query from our Expert Mr.Sambath only.
    Now what is the problem is the query is retrieving the payment details of old Posting Period only and not the current posting period.
    In detail, I used 'Primary' Series for FY08-09, Period indicator 'Default'
    Now I'm using 'Primary1' Series for FY09-10, Period indicator '0910'
    Thanx in adv.

  • Error while running a query

    Hi All,
    My BEx query runs fine.
    But when i add a key figure, say XYZ, then i get an error saying
    "The sum or average aggregate operation cannot take a nvarchar data type as an argument"
    Note that the key figure i am using is a standard key figure.
    Kindly help.

    The key figure is defined as quantity and the data type is QUAN.
    Actually this key figure is being used in lots of places, so changing it would be a bit difficult.
    Is there any other way for it, if possible???
