Formula Options in Query Designer

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me while craeting a formula we have % option and %A option. Where do we use %A option?
Thanks

please go thr these threads
Percentage Share (%A)
● <Operand1> %A <Operand2>
This gives the percentage share of operand 1 and operand 2. It is identical to formula 100 *
<Operand1> / abs(<Operand2>) , if <Operand2> is not equal to 0 and the character for u201CDivision
by 0u201D if <Operand2> is equal to 0

How to assign current date/time to a formula variable in Query Designer

How do I assign the current date to a formula variable in Query Designer? I need to use current data in a calculation and just need the date the report was run.
Thanks

Hi Philip,
There is an SAP formula variable to supply the current date in a formula. I think it is 0F_ADAY...install it from business content if you cannot see it in the query designer (formula box, under formula variables) and try using it.
Hope this helps...

Hi,
If you define your query conversion in BW then it is easy to do currency conversion through Bex.What you need to do is use calculated key figure instead formula and do a right click select properties there at the currency translation area you ca select defined currency conversion in BW and your target currency.

Creating formula in the Query Designer

Hi,
I have a KF which I have to convert in to different unit in the query ( x/data)
The problem is some of my data in the cube is zero (0) and when I use division, it shows me error (red X) in the query output.( Divide by zero)
Is there any way to skip this division if the data is zero? How can I set my formula in the Query designer?
Thanks
M Kumar.

Hi,
Please use the NDIV() or NOERR() function outside of your expression and it will take care of the division by zero.
See here for details:

Formula Evaluation in Query Designer

Hi
In query designer I have Complex formula which is having lot of variables.
My users are saying some values are incorrect in report output
Can any one help how can we find the value is calculated in report output for this formula.
Thanks
Sudhakar.

Hi Sudhakar,
One more way which you can try to find out how the particular Key Figure is been calculated in query designer is as given below:
1) Go to RSRT
2) execute your query with option for Query Display As "List"
3) You will get the query output
4) In this screen, you will get the button "Key Figure Definition" on the top
5) Click on this button and there will be a pop up screen to select "Structure Element 1" and "Structure Element 2"
6) Here for "Structure Element 1" please select the KeyFigure name for which you want to see the calcuation
7) and click on the "Continue" (Here its blue colored icon)
8) After this you will get a screen showing KF value that is calculated by query
9) Drill down the key figure to see "Fixed Fliter" which will show the data selection used to calculate this value. These are nothing but the global filters defined in query
10) Drill down the KF to see the dynamic filter values i.e. selections with which this KF is restricted in query designer
With above analysis you can easily trace out how the particular KF is calculated in query designer.

Geetanjali

Formula creation in Query designer

Hi All
I want to explain a bit more on my requirement .
I have supplied qty and ordered qty and i have the difference between both which is called as service level as %. there will always be 100% for some suppliers and lessthan 100% . So i want to count only the 100% suppliers and divide by all the suppliers . so that i can get the perfect order . and the formula is below .
I need to apply a formula line count with 100% / line count in one of my querys how to do it the qury designer . Can you anybody guide how to do it .
Thanks in advance . I am sorry if i have posted in the worng fourm .
thanks

you must be having an infobject refering to say supplier say supplier no. ( like customer number).
STEP 1: create a new CKF ( formula in query designer on right columns panel)
STEP 2: create a formula variable with reference characteristic as supplier no . replacement path replaced with infobject->attribute value - constant 1.
STEP 3. you CKF " NO OF SUPPLIERS" definition would be as below
supplier counter .
STEP 4. identifying 100% suppliers.create a new CKF " NO OF 100% SUPPLIER " ( formula in query designer on right columns panel).
it definition would be
supplier counter * ( ordered qty == supplied qty ).
where supplier counter is formula variable. this will give total counts of supplier where ordered qty == supplied qty.
STEP 4.
divide CKF " NO OF 100% SUPPLIER " / " NO OF SUPPLIERS"

Formula Variables in Query Designer

Hello All-
I'm using a formula variable in my report which is of type user exit. In my FM, I am calculation some Sales Growth Analysis based on some rates from the TCURR table. In short, I am calulating "FX Rate" for each currency (USD, EUR etc) I have in my cube.
In the end, my e_t_range table will contain an "FX Rate" for each currency...in many cases the table will hold more than one value. The problem is that my query dumps if I have more than one value in the e_t_range table. I've used regular user exits before on Chars and I was allowed to have multiple entried in the e_t_range table. What is the nature of formula variables? Is it the case that I can only pass one value to my query with formula variables?

Hi,
Once Bex 3.5 query is opened in Bex 7.0, you can't open the same query in Bex 3.5. If you are still able to open the query in Bex 3.5 means you have not opened it in Bex 7.0.
Please check it while opening a query in Bex 7.0. It would ask you question " Do you want open bex 3.5 query in Bex 7.0?
Hope it is useful.
Thanks,
Ashok

Query Designer writeing formula takes very long time

Experts,
When i try to write a formula. The query designer is taking very long time to navigate.
One formula is taking 20 mins to write.
1. I have upgraded my laptop memory to 2 GB of Ram
2. I am on 7.10 SP4 Patch 1. Had the same issue with the previous versions.
Please suggest a resolution.
The QD has tested my patence. I am sure no body wants to create a query for 2 days. There has to be a problem somewhere causing this.
Thank you.

Vinod,
Save the query and then exit BW sessions, also restart your system.
It might be a problem with main memory of your laptop or BW server load.
But 20mins is too long for any kind of definition in query designer.
Please check these things, perhaps it helps.
Thanks,

Query Designer Formula Logic

Hi
I have the following data and the status of the formula should be 1 or 0.
Cancel Date : 05/31/2011
Formula : cancel date >=today's date
Cancelled(Yes =1/No= 0) : 1
Cancel Date : # (no date assigned)
Formula : cancel date >=today's date
Cancelled(Yes =1/No= 0) : 0
Cancel Date : 06/30/2011
Formula : cancel date >=today's date
Cancelled(Yes =1/No= 0) : 0
i tried the following formula in the query designer 7.0 but second condition gives 1 instead of 0.
DELTA ( COUNT (cancel date >= today's date)).
I am not able to find a better solution, please suggest.
Thanks!

Hi,
Here todays date is 06/01/2011 right? Shouldnt then be 1, 0 other way round for 1 &3.
Cancel Date : 05/31/2011
Formula : cancel date >=today's date
Cancelled(Yes =1/No= 0) : 0
Cancel Date : 06/30/2011
Formula : cancel date >=today's date
Cancelled(Yes =1/No= 0) : 1
Anyways, Cancel Date is present as a Characteristic or KF? If Char, you can create the RKF, add above CKF in a RKF with Cancel Date NE #. This will give 'Blank' not zero when Cancel date = #.

Cell Definition in Query Designer

Hi,,
Can anyone will tell me the real time use of cell definition option in query designer.
Thanks and Regards.
Anjali

Anjali,
You can use cell definitions when you want to overwrite the value of a particular cell.
For this you need to have an identification of where the cell intersection takes place. So for defining cell definitions its mandatory to have two structures in the report.
Now coming to the scenario,
You have GL accounts in the rows structure and the key figures amount, deductions and some others.
Rows-----Amount--
Deductions
1001--20000--
100
1002--15456--
4363
1007--64334--
252
1005--36643--
34
1111--43436--
343
This is what the report displays for a particular year the user enters e.g 2007.
But for a GL account 1005 the user wants to display the amount for the last fours years.
The out put for amount for the GL account 1005 displays only 2007. The requirement is that it should display the summed up values of 2007,2006,2005,2004.
To get this out put we go for cell definitions and in the intersection of the 1005 GL account and amount we define a cell definition. Based upon the requirement we define the cell definition...
Hope this helps you.......

Currency conversion in the query designer level

Hi
Iam calculating the 'Financial Loss' in the Formula in the query designer.And it comes in SAR(Saudi Riyals).
But i want the 'Financial Loss' in USD in the Query Designer. Because i want the USD Financial Loss to be use in some other calculation.
Please let me know how can we do this one in the query designer. I really appreciate for it .
Regards
Kumar

Dear Ravi,
Basically there are 2 ways to do it: routine & query level.
If query level, you need to maintain it first using tcode RRC1, then you use it in your KF in your query. .
Routine level,
You can create new KF in info-provider, then in the update rules routine, you can use this function to convert the currency :
CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY
Hopefully it can help you a lot.
Regards,
Niel
thanks for any points you choose to assign.

Fromula SumGT SumCT in Query Designer

Hi Folks,
I have two formulas in the Query Designer.
Formula A with exception aggregation on Material (Count) and didnot use calculate result as Field ( but it is showing some value in the result(count) ) & Formula B with calculate result as total.
Now, Want to calculate the Result of Formula A / Result of Formula B.
Have tried using SUMGT & SUMCT in the Formula.
i.e, SUMCT 'Formula A' / SUMCT 'Formula B'. O/P is showing Zero.
How to achieve this.
Please throw some light in this regard.

Hi,
See the Properties... in Formula Collision
Whenever you define two structures that both contain formulas, it is unclear to the system how to calculate the formulas at the point where both formulas intersect.
See the below URL in SAP help...
