Generic navigation block,Hierarchy filter selection and Filter

Hi all,
Could any one explains what is the difference between a filter and Generic navitgation block & a filter and Hierarchy filters.
         How the filters in web reports differs the filters in queries.
Regards,
Preetham

Hi,
Filters:
In your Web application, you can select filter values for characteristics and structures. The Web application is then filtered according to these selected values.
Generic Navigation Block:
The Web item Generic Navigation Block displays the navigational state of a query view in the Web application in the form of a table. All characteristics and structures in the query view are listed in the table and their filter values are displayed. You can change the navigational status of the query view. You can transfer characteristics and structures to an axis (rows or columns) or from an axis. You can filter according to single values and remove the filter again.
Hierarchy Filter:
You can search through leaves and nodes in the hierarchies of your Web application.

    Hi sujana,
    For the table filter you can use the generic class use this link [Ready Made Table Filter Extension|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/ReadyMadeTableFilterExtension] it is more relevant for the CE 7.1 and later.
    For this you have to create a package util in your wdComponent and create a class called table Filter. after that you can use this class as a data type of the table filter attribute which should be in view context. after that you can invoke the table filter methods for that object and supply the required parameter.
    Hope it help.

  • Hierarchy Expand & Navigation Block Filtering Operation

    Hi,
    I've got an "System error in program SAPLRRK0 and form CACHE_UNLOCK_FF-01-" when I expand a characteristic hierarchy in a report and right after that perform filtering on the same characteristic using the generic navigation block of the same report.
    "Diagnosis:
    This internal error is a targeted termination since the program has an incorrect status.
    Procedure:
    Analyse the situation and inform SAP.

    hi,
    check oss note 769824 707940 565911
    769824
    Reason and Prerequisites
    When you expand a node, the data of the lower-level nodes belonging to this node is added to the data of the previous node displayed if the query has read mode 'H'. This large data object was previously flagged as invalid in this case. The error then occurred when it was unlocked.

  • Query filter selection list flat file

    I know that when using a "multiple single value" variable a user can paste or upload a text file of values BUT...
    is it possible to use a text file to create a query FILTER value list?
    (I mean in the query designer not at query run-time or in a workbook)
    thanks

    oh i just now see that with BI 7.0 you can right click on the right side of a filter selection and choose "Upload Selection"

  • Screen Jumping when opening Navigational Block

    Hi all.  I have created a template and having a problem with the generic navigational block.  It shifts the screen down to put the block at the top of the screen.  We have recently upgraded to BW 3.5 and I think I see the problem...just not sure what to do about it.  When I expand the block the URL changes to have "anchor=SAPBWUForm27&rnd=ID847810278330&dummy=#SAPBWUForm27" at the end of it.  If I get rid of the "#" in that string then execute the URL, it works ok (without jumping) but if I try to expand or collapse by clicking on the block then the "#" comes back...along with the problem.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hi Jeff,
    Did you solve the issue yourself?
    I am facing the same problem...

  • Values missing in Navigation block - Select filter value

    Hi Experts,
    I'm using navigation attribute in query. Query is built over multiprovider. Navigation attribute in query is ZCOMPAN01__ZSALES_RG. In multiprovider I use two cubes as sources and from first cube I assigned nav. attribute ZCOMPAN01__ZSALES_RG and from second cube I assigned SCUSTSAL1__ZSALES_RG.
    When I click in query on funnel to Select filter value I don't see all values which are displayed in query (I see only values from first cube). But when I write the value directly to filter, it is regulary selected. Also I can right click on value in query and set Select filter value, after that I see in filter block all values (from both cubes).
    I tried to change all possible Business Explorer setting of infoobject ZSALES_RG (eg. Only values in infoprovider/ only posted...etc.). I also tried to change setting of navigation attribute (right click on nav. attribute in multiprovider - Provider-Specific Properties), but without success. SID table of infoobject contains all values which I need.
    Do you have any hint how to see all used values in Select filter value?
    Thanks in advance
    David

    Hi Murali,
    Thank you for the response but we know how to set the value, the option is checked and the Select Filter Value still does not show on the context menu during execution. I think the issue is related to a default user exit variable that we use to pre-select a date but still want to be able to navigate and filter other characteristics during execution. There seems to be something to this combination that BW does not like.
    Thanks again,
    Rick

  • How to - Select Multiple Filter Values w/o Navigation ability

    Just FYI, I had a requirement to allow users to select multiple characteristic filter values.  Something like a capabilities a combo box would afford us.
    To do this just use a Generic Nav Block Web Item and in the Web Item configuration just uncheck the "Display Navigation Icons". 
    It gives them the ability to select multiple filter values without all the Drill up/down capabilities.

    You can use multiple filter options using the web item dropdwon box.
    There is a How to document available in the BW 2.0B section for this..link below.

  • BEx - empty value(#) in navigation Block (filter)

    Hello experts,
    i have navigation attribute in navigation block (query). It means that data in filter are read directly from master.
    This nav. attribute has 2 compounded IOs.
    i can see value in filter as below.
    #/#/001
    #/#/002
    #/#/003
    1/2/004
    2/3/005
    The values  #/#/001, #/#/002, ... are stored in master data table. I would like to see only rows where fields are filled (1/2/004, 2/3/005, ...).
    Do you have any idea ?
    Maybe it's possible to supress these values in Info Object - folder "Master Data" - "Master Data Access" - "Own Implementation" - class
    Thanks for advice in advance
    Martin

    In query designer, select your IO and navigate its properties. You will see it.

  • Input variable takes value from current filter setting in navigation block

    Hi
    Is there is a way in SAP, maybe with customer exit, to fill a input variable for 0CALMONTH (which in the end will get a value like "06.2005") with the current value from the selected month in the filter settings of the time characteristic 0CALMONTH in the navigation block of a query?
    I guess the filter values are transferred back to the OLAP engine so the server knows the filter values of course and theoretically might be able to fill a variable with it...?
    Full points will be assigned.
    Thanks,
    German

    Thanks for your suggestion Vikram.  But if i change in the Info-object leve, i hope it will be reflected in all the Queries that are using this info-object.  I want it for a particular query alone.
    Also, in the Info-object level, for the option 'Query execution Filter value' the value is given as 'Value in Master Data Table' only.  Still, it is User specific.

  • Issue with Hierarchy selection in Filter area

    Hi experts,
    We have an issue with BEx query selection.
    Structure of Quey
    1. Filter Area
    => Characteristic Relations : Restriction condition with hierarchy
    2. Rows
    => Display characteristic with hierarchy active
    3.Columns
    => Formula with keyfigure using sign reverse of hierarchy (formula variance).
    <symptom >
    When I use context menu, "Keep filter value", with the displayed hierarchy node,
    and drilldown with other characteristics, the result became wrong. Filter value I kept became inactive.
    Workaround I found was like belows.
    1. Remove sign reverse calculation in Formula.
    2. Keep sign reverse calculation and move restriction condition with hierarchy in filter area TO default values.
    I wonder this symptom was right technically or bug ocurred after version upgrade or something.
    Thanks in advance.
    BEx BI Addon 7.X(based on 710)/SP11 Revision 634

    Hi
    This depends on the logical database that the report is based on. Secondly I have experienced that the report variant overwrites the date selections and therefore it looks like that the dates are not parsed (which I think is your problem).
    For e.g. logical PHP and PHPCE both the period and data dates are filled with the data selection from the portal. (check on the report attributes in SE38 which logical DB used) For e.g. PTRVP (travel) no date are passed at all in the call of the report!!
    To make sure that the report variant isnu2019t overwriting I normally set the variant for the report to u201CSave field without valuesu201D for the date selection periods and then it isnu2019t filled by the variant.
    Data selection period
    Data selection period: Start
    Data selection period: End
    Employee selection period
    Employee selection period: Start
    Employee selection period: End

    Can you please help. is this functionality not available?

    Hi Rob, you can do that for the query (the exclude selection) on the Query Designer. But its not recomended on performance point of view.
    hope this helps

  • Difference between drill down and filter using navigation attributes?

    hi all,
    can anyone let me know the difference between filter and drilldown options using navigational attributes. pls explain with examples for filter and drill down and how it varies.
    thanxs
    haritha

    Jst to add up with an example :
    Say you have a cost center variance analysis report with cost elements in the filter. ( not present in the default report result )
    Filter - You can right click on a particular cost center & say " Keep Filter Value " - it will result in only showing that cost center & you can wish to select other filter value doing " Select Filter Value ".
    Drill Down - If u wish to see the cost elements associated with cost centers you can right click on Cost Center & do " Drill Down To - Cost Element " or Drill Across.

  • How to hide one block of data based on Filter selections

    Hi,
    I have a requirement where I should show only one block based of filter selections provided at the Query Level.
    How can I achieve that?
    Regards
    Shirley

    Lets say you have a optional filter and you want to show block 1 if value are inserted and block 2 if no value selected.
    For this You can create a variable status =IsPromptAnswered("") it will return 1 if prompt is answered.
    In block property go to the hide if below formula is correct and for block 1 give   status =1 and block 2 give status=0
    I hope this will help.
