Fiscal year in the columns outside the key figure structure

Dear Experts
I have a report requirement to show the keyfigures in the columns from year 1 to year 10 and in each year there are 4 keyfigures each restricted to 1 quarter for 4 quarters.
So, there are too many keyfigures to create.
I am using fiscal year in the columns outside the Key figure structure containing the keyfigures restricted at each of 4 quarters.
So, when the report displays, all the 10 years will automatically be displayed.
The problem is one of the 4 quarter level keyfigures needs to be restricted by calendar year.
How can I read what is the fiscal year for each column at runtime so that I can reference this value to determine the calendar year ?
As you know, each FY spans 2 Calendar Years. So, i need to restrict this on the 4th keyfigure by calendar year but while having the FY outside the keyfigure structure i can get all the FY, I am not sure how to access this value at runtime so that eg.
if FY for column 1 is 2010, i can set calendar year to be 2010 to 2011.
Hope you can give me some clues.
Thanks you Gurus!
Best regards
John

Dear Sunnybt
Copy Riyes, I find your response interesting. Please could you elaborate your idea of using condition in more detail.
Sorry for my late response.
Allow me to clarify my statement, which you are right, is unclear.
By :
"if the current QuarterFY is less than the current QuarterFY"
I mean :
eg. user enters FY range : 2009 to 20NN (eg. 2017)
KF_column1_FY2009_Q1______KF_column2_FY2009_Q2____KF_column3_FY2009_Q3______KF_column_FY2009_Q4______KF_column_FY2010_Q1______KF_column2_FY2010_Q2____KF_column3_FY2010_Q3______KF_column_FY2010_Q4_____KF_column_FY_NNNN_Q1
For each column, where the FY can be any year range entered by user,
the Text Description of the Column should show either 'Actual' or 'Plan' based on what is the current FY Quarter at runtime.
If the FY Quarter (eg. 1st column is 200101) is before current FY Quarter (i.e 201103), then the Description of this column should be "Actual" , else "Plan".
In my current design, I am unable to use customer exit text variable to meet this requirement.
So, I like to check with you for fresher ideas.
If not , I would use a workbook, which I am avoiding as the user needs to drilldown and I believe drilldown is not possible in workbooks where report layout needs to be rigid or cell positions fixed. Of course, unless there is a way out of this which I do not know.
Best regards

Key figure Structure

hi,
Is there a restriction that there can only be 1 key figure structure in the columns section??? If no, how to get more than 1 structure with key figures in them both.
Thanks & Regards,
Rathy

Ok,
Then you just have to create a formula in the column structure to calculate the variance.
*char1
key figure structure:
*A1-amt restricted with char2
*A2amt restricted with char2..(in this different values of char2...also there is only 1 kf amt in the infoprovider)
*A1 %A A2 You creates this formula and you will have one structure like:
Value1 char1 -
Value 2 Char1
A1--A2A1 %A A2        A1A2--A1 %A A2
If you put the char in rows the structure will be:
A1       A2        A1 %A A2
Value1 char1
Value2 char1
I hope it helps now.

Fiscal Year in the columns outside KF structure

Dear Experts,
I have a manual Entry variable for Fiscal Year range.
In the query designer columns , I have a KF structure containing quarter level columns.
The FY is outside this structure. So, for each FY user entered in the FY range variable, the report will show the set of KFs at quarter level.
How can i refer to this FY values at runtime such that current date can be used to compare with the FY and Quarter in the columns?
The requirement is, if the current QuarterFY is less than the current QuarterFY, the TEXT variable for the columns should show 'Actual' else show 'Plan' .
I am not sure how to reference the FY range entered by user considering that the FY is placed outside the KF columns to automatically display all the FY entered by the user without the use of the FY range variable restricted in the KFs.
Please advise.
Thanks.
Bass

The column in the table do not match an existing primary key

I've got two tables tbl_Workshop and tbl_Material
tbl_Workshop has columns workshopID, workshopTitle, materialID
tbl_Material has materialID, name, workshopTitle
when I'm trying to create a relationship between the workshopTitle of tbl1 and tbl2, it gives me an error that says the column in the table do not match an existing primary key.
What could be the reason for this error and how to overcome it.
ps. The datatypes and names of both the table's column match.

Have you created primary key on workshopTitle column in tbl_Workshop
You can add foreign key relationship from tbl_Material.workshopTitle
to tbl_Workshop.workshopTitle
only if latter is a primary key of the table.

How to display the total at the end of the column in the report.

Hi all,
Could any one please intimate, how to display the total at the end of the column. For example, i have a column, "sales" as the Key figure, and it has the data for all the transactions. Now, i would like to display the total at the end of the report, below the same column.
Similarly, for all the other columns in the report, i need to display the total for all the columns in the report.
Thanks & Regards,
A.V.N.Rao

Hi All,
Thanks for many suggestions. I tried by providing the "Total" under "Calculate Results as" and also "Counter for all detailed values" under "Calcuate Single Values as", in the "Calculations" tab of the key figure, but i am unable to get the information. Again, i am providing the requirement below:
CHAR - A   CHAR - B   TIME CH. - 1 KF -1 KF- 2 KF - 3
1                     RAM        2012           1         50      50
2                     SAM         2012          2         100    200
Result                                               3           150   250
Assume KF -1 as "Qty." KF-2 as "Price" KF-3 as "Sales".
Please intimate the solution.
Thanks & Regards,

The use of restricted key figures in real time scenario

Hi all,
Please let me know the use of restricted key figures in real-time business scenarios....plz someone explain it with <b><u>example</u></b>...
Also, can restricted keys be defined globally with same infoprovider...???????????
Your response is thankfully acknowledged,
thanks and regards,
shalini.

Hi,
You can restrict the key figures of an InfoProvider for reuse by selecting one of more characteristics. The key figures that are restricted by one or more characteristic selections can be basic key figures, calculated key figures or key figures that are already restricted. Which means you can define and use them globally in reporting for a particular infoprovider.
Example:
You have to show the sales for different product typessay 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, for a company code.
now you can define a RKF with company code and sales keyfigure.
In the report, in columns, you use this RKF in new selection and restrict it with product type in 6 diff columns.
New Selection.
Restrict it with RKF
Restrict it with product type 1.
similarly for others..
Hope this helps you....

Is there a routine one can use to shift the column of data by one each time the loop index increments? In other words, increment the columns that the data is being saved by using the index?

The device, an Ocean Optics spectrometer in columns of about 9000 cells.I'm saving this as a lvm file using the "write to measurement file.vi". But it doesn't give me the flexibility as far as I can tell.
I need to move the column by the index of the for loop, so that when i = n, the data will take up the n+1 column. (the 1st column is used for wavelength). How do I use the "write to spreadsheet file.vi" to do this? Also, if I use the "write to spreadsheet file.vi", is there a way one can increment the file name, so that the data isn't written over. I like what "write to measurement file.vi" does.
I'd really appreciate any help someone can give me. I'm a novice at this, so the greater the detail, the better. Thanks!!!

You cannot write one column at a time to a spreadsheet file, because a file is arranged linearly and adding a column would need to move (=read and rewwrite elsewhere) almost all existing elements to interlace the new data. You can only append new rows without having to touch the already written data.
Fields typically don't have fixed width. An exception would be binary files that are pre-allocated at the final size. In this case you can write columns by setting the file positions for each element. It still will be very inefficient.
What you could do is append rows until all data is written, the read, transpose, and write back the final file.
What you also could to is build the final array in a shift register and write the entire things to file at once after all data is present.

Format the total value in the column of the graph table

Hello all,
I have a graph table and I need to format the total value in the column of the table.
I am trying to find my table bean with the code below but it's not working in the processRequest. Is there anything else that should be done?
// Get the graph
OAGraphTableBean graphBean = (OAGraphTableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("MyGraph");
// Get the table
OATableBean tblBean = (OATableBean)graphBean.findChildRecursive("MyTable");
The tblBean is null in the processRequest. In the processFormRequest the tblBean is not null.
Thanks and Regards,
Andrea

Hi,
The code OAGraphTableBean graphBean = (OAGraphTableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("MyTable"); does not work because in this case I am getting the table but casting to a graph.
The MyTable bean is a child of MyGraph.
When creating a graph bean we have the option to create a table as a child (select your graphTable region in the Structure pane, and choose New > tabularFormat - to create the table).
The table bean child I can get just in the processFormRequest, but the graph I can get in both processRequest and processFormRequest.
I need to get the table bean in the processRequest to format the total value column.
Do you know if is there anything else that should be done to format the total column?
Thanks and Regards,
Andrea

How can i reorder the columns in the do not display section of the interactive report.

Hi,
My interactive report contains 185 columns, and the user requieres to build his customized reports with some columns, but the he gets lost between this amount of columns, this would be easier if the columns in the do not display section of the interactive report would be sorted automaticaly, Is this possible?
Thanks a lot,

Hi Eva,
One solution would be to order the column names alphabetically. You can create a JavaScript dynamic action to handle the sorting.
The shuttle of the IR attribute "Select Columns" have the ID's "apexir_SHUTTLE_LEFT" or the Hidden colums and "apexir_SHUTTLE_RIGHT" for the displayed columns.
The function you'd need to create would look like:
var options = $('select#apexir_SHUTTLE_LEFT option');
var arr = options.map(function(_, o) { return { t: $(o).text(), v: o.value }; }).get();
arr.sort(function(o1, o2) { return o1.t > o2.t ? 1 : o1.t < o2.t ? -1 : 0; });
options.each(function(i, o) {
o.value = arr[i].v;
$(o).text(arr[i].t);
var options = $('select#apexir_SHUTTLE_RIGHT option');
var arr = options.map(function(_, o) { return { t: $(o).text(), v: o.value }; }).get();
arr.sort(function(o1, o2) { return o1.t > o2.t ? 1 : o1.t < o2.t ? -1 : 0; });
options.each(function(i, o) {
o.value = arr[i].v;
$(o).text(arr[i].t);
You'd need to find the propper timing for the dynamic action to run, I guess click of the button "Select Columns" would do the trick.

How to influence the text display of key figures in the interarctive DP

Hello all,
Does anyone know if there is a possibility (BADI, etc.) to change the text display of key figures (not characteristics!) in a planning book/data view?
I know that you can define a free text in the data view but still, this is only one fixed text and it cannot be changed.
Reason for the request: We would like to use the same key figure (and hence, indicate 2 different texts) for two different purposes (in different selections) without having to create a new data view.
Kind regards,
Klemens

if you dont want a new data view and might even go to the extent of creating a user exit for this ... here is an idea
- just create auxillary KF ( or use spare Temp KF depending on what you want to do with the data in the view) for each of these KF with the text
lets say you have KF1 and KF2 - create KF1A and KF2A
Make sure KF1A = KF1 and KF2a = KF2
Now depending on user you can display KF 1 and KF2 or KF1a and KF2a depending on the user by using macros USER() and ROW_VISIBLE(0)

I am using Photoshop Elements 11. Do all .jpg formatted file have to be retangular in shape? I want to create an oval .jpg picture to insert into a book. Haven't been able to do so. It would work if I could make the area outside the oval completely tr

I am using Photoshop Elements 11. Do all .jpg formatted file have to be retangular in shape? I want to create an oval .jpg picture to insert into a book. Haven't been able to do so. It would work if I could make the area outside the oval completely transparent. Can anyone help me here?

JPG does not support transparency, so even if you create an oval with transparent background, the saved JPG will have white background. Instead, save it as a PNG, TIFF, or GIF which preserve the transparency.
Here is one of many ways to create your oval:
Create a new file the approximate size of the oval. Add the oval with the Custom Shape Ellipse tool, and simplify the shape layer.
In the Layers Palette, Ctrl-click the oval to select it and copy the selection to the clipboard (Edit > Copy).
Then do File > New from Clipboard. This creates the oval with transparent background cropped to the oval size.
Then save it as one of the file types that support transparency (and also supported by the application where you are sending the picture to).
Note: Is is not even necessary to do step 2. That is only if some reason you want the oval to be tightly cropped. It is sufficient to delete the Background layer in step 1 (or turn off its visibility) and save the file. The oval will appear correctly in the book with either version.

How to hide the columns at the end user level thru personalization

Hi all
how I can hide the columns that are displayed on the portal. Any personalize option for the end user? Any righ click or some thing?
I am looking at hiding columns not while developing the iViews / Pages, But in the browsers as the end user.
i can hide the columns what ever i want while creating the iViews for MDM data. but we cant provide the content administrator role to the end user for hiding the columns what ever they want. they want to hide the columns thru pesonalization option at the end user level.
Can you please let me know whether we can able to hide the columns at the end user level thru personalization ?? is it posible with standard iViews??
Regards
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
I understood your requirement properly and seems valid and I tried this at my end but i didnt get the solution. Field list is not visible in Personalize option. I dont think it is possible with MDM standard iViews.
I was thinking an alternative is if some how we manage to give the permissions to end user only on Result Set iView but if it would be possible it will not be a good design.
Lets wait for some inputs from others.

Thank you for your reply,
When I click 'view' , I can "show inspector". From the table tab, I can pull up the "Format". [See below]. I don't see the "Arrange" or "Object Placement Move with Text"
Right now I have the Wrap Text On. When I take it off, It messes up my rows [see second image].
All I want is for my column to flow onto the second page.
Your assistance is genuinely appreciated.
Thank you again.
