Filling up a variable value from another variable

Hi,
I have two date fields, one calmonth characteristic ZCALMON (as char) and other calmonth charactaeristic 0CALMON as time dimension (standard bw).
But at query level, I would like to user enter only one variable value 0PCALMON for 0CALMON (say only for date characteristic as time dimension). This date variable value should get copied to other date characteristic ZCALMON (as char).
I can do this by using the customer exit varibale (without writing any abap code) and using the copy variable from other variable options. But I am not able to use the offset on ZCALMON.
How can i Use offset using customer exit variable on ZCALMON.
cheers

Hi,
you can use customer exit variable which will read the value of the 0calmonth variable and pass it to the zcalmonth.
While populating the value, do the calculation or the off-set and send the value to zvcalmonth (Variable).
WHEN 'ZVCALMON'.
   IF i_step = '2'.
Loop at i_t_var_range into i_s_var_range where vnam = '0PCALMON' .
    zdat = i_s_var_range-low.
endloop.
      CALL FUNCTION 'GO_BACK_MONTHS' *Sample Function
        EXPORTING
          currdate   = zdat
          backmonths = '012'
        IMPORTING
          newdate    = from_period.
      CALL FUNCTION 'GO_BACK_MONTHS' *Sample Function
        EXPORTING
          currdate   = zdat
          backmonths = '000'
        IMPORTING
          newdate    = to_period.
      CLEAR l_s_range.
      lyear = from_period+0(4).
      lmon   = from_period+4(2).
      lday   = from_period+6(2).
      CONCATENATE lyear lmon lday INTO l_s_range-low.
Hope you got it

How to derive a variable value from another variable of a different IO?

Hi Gurus,
I am aware that using BEx variables and Customer Exit you are able to derive a variable value from another variable of the same infoobject (for example, Fiscal Year/Period (0FISCPER) and Calendar Day (0CALDAY)).
However, is is possible, using the same approach to derive a variable value from another variable that is in a different InfoObject? (for example, Input Fiscal Year/Period (0FISCPER) but derive Output of Required Start Date (0REQSTDAT))?
There are 2 BEx variables involved,
1) A user entry variable that is restricted in 0FISCPER
2) A customer exit variable that is restricted in ZREQSTDAT
In CMOD under EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001, Include ZXRSRU01, the code (I assume, correct me if I'm wrong) should perform 3 functions in I_STEP = 2,
1) After the pop up, capture user entry of Fiscal Year/Period
2) Identify or convert Fiscal Year/Period to Calendar Day range (unsure on how to code this portion)
3) Use the Calendar Day to lookup on matching Required Start Date and display all Required Start Date that matches. (unsure on how to code on this portion)
Hope to hear your thoughts soon.
Regards,
Eric

Hi Shanthi,
I've made the necessary adjustments. The only difference in my code is,
Instead of,
If I_VNAM = 'ZREQSTDAT'
I use,
CASE I_VNAM.
Instead of,
PARAMETERS: ZFISCPER TYPE /BI0/OIFISCPER.
ZYEAR = ZFISCPER(4).
ZMM = ZFISCPER+4(3).
I use ,
This is the Customer Exit Variable in ZREQSTDAT
WHEN 'ZRSD_CX'.
The loop I use for the User Entry Variable in 0FISCPER-ZFYP_IN
LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
      WHERE VNAM = 'ZFYP_IN'.
    IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
        CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
ZYEAR = LOC_VAR_RANGE(4).
ZMM = LOC_VAR_RANGE+4(3).
The codes were checked with no errors.
However, when I input the Fiscal Year/Periods and hit 'Execute'. The report went blank, not sure what is the cause. I've tried it several times. No error message appeared.

Eric

Variable value from another variable

Hi all,
I created a query where one variable fill nother variable with following abap code:
when 'ZODACE'.
    tables: /BIC/AZSD_O0100,
            /BIC/AZSD_O0200.
    ranges: r_createdon for /BIC/AZSD_O0100-CREATEDON.
break-point.
    if i_step = 2.
      loop at i_t_var_range into loc_var_range
              where vnam = 'ZDATADOC'.
        clear r_createdon.
        r_createdon-low    = loc_var_range-low.
        r_createdon-high   = loc_var_range-high.
        r_createdon-sign   = 'I'.
        r_createdon-option = 'BT'.
        append r_createdon.
        exit.
      endloop.
      select DOC_NUMBER into
             /BIC/AZSD_O0100-DOC_NUMBER

      endselect.
      endselect.
    endif.
The variable are:
ZODACE based on IO 0REFER_DOC with customer exit
ZDATADOC based on IO ZDATU with manual entry
After wich end-user digit a data in ZDATADOC popup I take ODOC_NUMBER in order item ODS ZSD_O01 where ZDATADOC=CREATEDON.
With 0DOC_NUMBER I go to delivery item ODS ZSD_O02 and I take the corresponding 0REFER_DOC and then I fill variable ZODACE.
0REFER_DOC is in row of the query.
When I start the query I receive the following error message:
Error for variable in the customer exit ZODACE
and in debug i find this message:

Creating Variable with Replacement Path to get value from ANOTHER Variable

Hi all,
    Is anyone has created the Variable with Replacement Path to get the value from another User Entry Variable, PLEASE ?
First created the User Entry Variable (ZV_X) and it accepts the date range like '01/01/2009 - 01/31/2009'. Next created the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path for which source variable will be ZV_X and we should get the 'FROM Date' (01/01/2009) from the selection (ZV_X) into it (ZV_Y).
While creating the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path, I didn't find my newly created ZV_X variable in the list of available variables under 'Variable' header in 'Replacement Path' tab and it is causing the error 'Source to replace variable ZV_Y is not defined'. How could I create the Characteristic variable of Replacement Path for my requirement, PLEASE ?
The following is from help.sap..com:
Replace with Characteristic Value
Text and formula variables with the processing type Replacement Path can be replaced with a corresponding characteristic value. In the variable editor, on the General tab page, you specify under Reference Characteristic the characteristic that is to be referenced by the replacement. On the Replacement Path tab page, you can choose whether the variable is replaced with the From or the To Value and with the Key or the Name of the characteristic value. You can also specify the Offset Start and Offset Length for the output.
Replace with Variable
Characteristic value variables, hierarchy variables, text variables, and formula variables with the Replacement Path processing type can take their values from a different variable.
The following prerequisites need to be fulfilled:
Variable
●      The variable must not be input-ready
●      The variable must represent a single value
Source Variable
●      The source variable must not be a hierarchy node variable
●      The source variable must be input-ready
●      The source variable must be available in the query
●      The source variable must represent a single value or an interval
In the variable editor, on the Replacement Path tab page, you specify the source variable from which the value is to be determined. The value is either determined from the key, the external attribute of the key, the description, or the attribute value. You can specify an Offset Start and an Offset Length for the output here. The variable is replaced on the variable screen upon each data release.
Thanks,
Venkat.

Hi Eve,
It is possible to connect the 2 queries using a Replacement Path characteristic variable. You would need to create the variable on the char whose values you want to pass from Q1 to Q2. The variable will be of type replacement path and you will need to enter the name of Q1 from which it will get the values. Make sure that you include this char in the query definition of Q1 and Q2. In Q2 you will restrict the characteristic using this variable. DO not use this variable (replacement path) in Q1.
In your query properties check if you have turned on the checkmark for Release for OLE DB for OLAP (3rd tab). If the check mark is there, then remove it.
We are using the scenario in a couple of places, and it works very well.
Hope this helps...

Getting a variable value from another class

Is there any way to get the value of a variable from another class? I have a file that calls another that does some checking then gives a true or false. The place the checking is done is inside an ActionListener I want to use that value in the file that calls the second. Any help would be great.

in 'another class', implement a method,
public boolean isCheckedOutOK( Object obj )
do the comparison in that method (use a suitable argument)

How to derive value from another variable and use it to read master data?

Hi,
I have following case:
First I need to read the value from Cost Center -variable (ZIPCC) and then I need to use that value to determine the home currency of that cost center from the cost center master data table (field: OBJ_CURR).
I know to basic idea on how to do this, but don't seem to get the syntax correct. Could someone point me in the right direction?
So the objects in play are:
ZIPCC = Cost center selection variable (mandatory, single value)
ZIPCUR = Cost Center Currency variable (customer exit, single value)
0COSTCENTER
0OBJ_CURR = Field in cost center master data
Help will be greatly appreciated!
-m

Hi,
Thank you very much for your example I can see that this logic works! However I'm experiencing trouble in selecting the 0OBJ_CURR
This kind of declaration isn't working: "D1 Like /BIC/0OBJ_CURR."
And the same goes for the Selection:
"Select single OBJ_CURR into D1 from /BI0/PCOSTCENTER where COSTCENTER = i_t_var_range-low."
This is where my syntax also went wrong.
0OBJ_CURR is a unit, is there a special way to declare it and use it in the code?
(and 0CURRENCY is a reference unit for 0OBJ_CURR).
Do you have adivce on this?

Need Text variable for Bex which take values from another variable

Hello ,
I have a requirement to show date values in query description.
User want to run a query which runs for 5 sept till last sunday.
I have one exit which provides last week date range ( low= last week monday & high = last week sunday )
i have acheieved this by restricting 0calday by range = (5 sept 2011 to exit (above metnioned exist's low) + 6 (offset)
now the problem is user wants to show this date range in query description .
ie suppose user is runnig this query today so the query description should be "5 sept 2011 to 2 oct 2011 "
This could be possible with text variable by using replacement path , but i am unable to figure ot the logic .
Kindly advice .

Variable type Hierarchy, how to get the value from another similar variable

Hi.
We have created a variable, type hierarchy (using ORGEH hierarchy in HR based on 0ORGUNIT). Let's call this VAR1. We want to fill this with an User Exit, beacuse we want VAR1 to have the value from another variable, VAR2, which is also type hierarchy (and based on the same characteristic).
However, when we program this user exit and use the VAR1 afterwards, it just behaves as if we have a single characteristic value and not a node value. As a result, we just get posts which do have the 'parent itself' as characteristic value, and none of the subnodes... Any hints as to what we can do in our User exit to get the value passed over from VAR2 to VAR1 as a node value? Is there any spesific syntax to be used here that we are missing? ( The VAR1 and VAR2 are both defined as hierarchy variables, we have double checked...).

Hi,
are you on BI7.0? There you can create variables type replacement path and get the value out from a different variable without any coding.

How to transfer variable value from one query to another query?

I create two queries which contain the same variable "Year" and "Month".
In the wad,Query1 is used to be a table and Query2 is used to show the chart in the condition with the same variable value of Query1
So I want to transfer the variable value from query1 to query2.
Can anyone help me ?

Let me explain the issue in detail.
In Query Designer, both the year and month variables are defined by user exit function to read current year and month and can be modified during the query runtime.
In WAD, Query1 is used to be a table with a table interface to hyperlink a chart which is defined by Query2 with the same variable value of Query1.
During the runtime of template, if I change the variable value of Query1 , I want the variable of Query2 to be changed automatically with the same new value.
So in the table interface of Query1 , I write the ABAP code in "SE24" and related source code to the variable is following:
concatenate
'function fire_urlJGSP_Col(filter) {'
Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
'chart_url="' url '" + "&CMD=LDOC'
'&TEMPLATE_ID=GCCHART_9' "WEB ID of the work book
'&PAGEID=Graphics' "Name of the view
'&CMD=PROCESS_VARIABLES&SUBCMD=VAR_SUBMIT&VAR_NAME=Z2MYEAR&VAR_VALUE_EXT=" + filter'
Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
'openWindow(chart_url,"chart_window","dependent=yes","600",'
'"450","true")'
Cl_rsr_www_renderer=>c_lf
into l_coding.
In this way , I can only transfer the year variable value from Query1 to Query2 and not two variables .
So , how shall I do to transer the two variable value in the same?

How to Get Value from a Variable to restrict a Key Figure ?

I am trying to make a query in Query designer, we are running BI7.
I have a user entry veriable on the Fiscal year period, the user will need to enter a period they want the report for, i.e. 07.2008 for July 2008 report and 04.2008 for April 2008 report.
Based on what the user entered as the starting period (in the variable entry), I have to then use that initial value and show the Year to date value (of sales etc) in the next column.
To Clarify, if user entered 07.2008 then all the data from 01.2008 to 07.2008 needs to be in the next column.   if user entered 04.2008 then all the data from 01.2008 to 04.2008 should be in the next column.
So to summarise according to my understanding, I want to get the value from a variable and pass it onto another variable to restrict a key firgure (sales amount)...
Can someone please clarify what i need to do here?
Many thanks in advance, points will be awarded accordingly.

hi,
please follow the below steps:
1. Create a new varialbe , this variable should be processed by customer exit.
2. In the column section, create a new column and drag the sales key figure, also drag fiscal year period and restrict with the new variable.
3. In the cmod tcode write a customer exit code to extract the value of the user entry and assign it your variable, you can refer to the below code.
WHEN '< New VAR name>'.
    IF I_STEP = '2'.                                 "AFTER THE POPUP
      LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
        WHERE VNAM = '<Fiscal Year Period VAR Name>'.
        CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
        L_S_RANGE-LOW      = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW(4).
        L_S_RANGE-LOW+4(3) = '001'.
        L_S_RANGE-HIGH     = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW.       "LOW E.G. 2001006
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'BT'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
        EXIT.
      ENDLOOP.
    ENDIF.
For ex- if the user enters 008/2008, this code will create as range assign 001/2008 - 008/2008 value to the variable.
hope it helps,
rgs,
Parth.

How to use the value of a variable to set another variable

Hello Experts,
Is it possible to access the value of variable set by the user and set the default value of another variable using the user entered value for the first variable? Example:

Month variable
User enters one of those and the other two are automatically prefilled with the correct values?

How to use one variable as a default value for another variable?

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to use one variable as a default value for another variable?
For example:
Variable 1 = current calendar year month
Variable 2 = mandatory input ready variable for calendar year month
I want to use variable 1 as default value for variable 2, but also have the ability to change the month if required.
Thanks!
Kathryn

u can use replacement path variable
in that case u can replace the values of 1 variable with the another variable...
but u cannot do this setting
u cannot make variable 2 as mandatory
u cannot enter value for variable 2
because by default it will take the value of variable 1
u have to make follow settings
variable 2
name , technical name
processing by = replacement path
infoobject = ocalmonth
next tab
replaced by another variable
variable name
offset start , offset lenght
save and hit okey

Hi Ada,
According to your description, you can't get the member when using the strtomember() function in your MDX. Right?
In Analysis Services, while the member name string provided contains a valid MDX member expression that resolves to a qualified member name, the CONSTRAINED flag requires qualified or unqualified member names in the member name string. Please check if the
variable is a Multidimensional Expressions (MDX)–formatted string.
Reference:
StrToMember (MDX)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
