Hide Filter Values

Hello Experts is it possible to hide the Filter values in our reports, i mean after opening the report from WAD, you have free characteristics, rows and columns, beside that you have filter where you filter based on paticular value....
But in my senerio when i clcik on filter button, it is giving me a list of all the values for that column, sfter that i have the text boxes with filter range.
Is it possible for me to remove all the values that are displaying above the text boxes, so that i can have only the Text boxes where the user can enter the desired values..
Thank you,
Kris...

Kris,
I am not sure if that is possible. One more way to do it would be to have a separate pop up instead and take in the user's input and pass it along the URL. Only thing is you will have to do a lot more JavaScript coding for the same and also input help will be tough to achieve. In short , it is not do able with just a setting.

Hide Query filter values and column width default

Hello Everyone,
In our query definition we have default filter(restriction) values. When query is output it shows these filtered(restricted) values.
Is there anyway to hide these? We dont' want users seeing this.
Also, the column width defaults to the largest output in the column (Excel standard). Is there anyway to override this? I tried in a workbook to set the column width to a certain width, but the query did not read this?
Thanks so much,
Colleen

Hi Colleen,
To set column widths, use the BW Properties dialog. In Excel, select any cell that is part of query definition, right-click ... you should now see a context-specific dialog. The last option in the dialog is always Properties. Go to the Column width tab and pick from there.
For the filter values ... you should be able to delete these cells and they should not re-appear (unless someone goes to the BW toolbar and selects Layout >> Display text elements).
Hope this helps.

Hi,
    Good Question!
    I chcked this for you. It's very much possible. There is lot of work Around.
I would like to give you my findings, i will update the thread if i make changes. That needs lot of efforts.
Filter Values and Report output, both will be available in the report. Those Filter Coloumns won't appear for us. <b>If you put your cursor on the first coloumn of the Table, It will start with "F", not "A".</b>It will hide filter coloumn.
In order o achive your requirement, weneed to make changes in such a way that output should display below the Filter Values.
I will update thread with my findings.

Restrict filter values that are shown in the selection screen

Hi Experts
1) Is it possible to restrict the filter values that are shown in the selection screen in BEx web? When a user are asked to enter a material number and uses the selection button in BEx web, he should only see material numbers for one specific plant. How is this done?
2) Is it possible to remove the selection button for å characteristic filter in the selection screen in BEx web? The selection button I am talking about is the button to the right of where you enter the filter value (two white papers on top of each other). If there is no solution for question 1 we have to go for question 2 solution.
We are using BI 04s, SP 09.
Kind regards
Erik

Hi Erik,
It seems that you would like the user to see value for 1 single plant. If the Plant Value is fixed then you can use this value in the Query and hardcode it.> in the query go to the Plant Chrac and keep a constant value of the Plant.
How ever if you need this value to be dynamic then use a variable for customer exit and populate this value using ABAP.

Changing Filter Values from Macro in BW 7.0

Hello,
in my Workbook I need to change Filter Values of some queries in runtime.
The first thing I found was BEx API reference for BW 3.5, but I wasn't able to make these functions work. After all I found this code:
    Dim BEx As Object
    Set BEx = Application.Run("BExAnalyzer.xla!GetBEx")
    Dim dp As Object
    Set dp = BEx.DataProviders.Item(sDP)
    Dim dimension As Object
    Set dimension = dp.Request.Dimensions.Item("0CALDAY")
    Dim filters As Object
    Set filters = dimension.filters
    If Not BEx.ServerStateExists Then
    MsgBox " Please refresh before using this Makro"
    Exit Function
    End If
    Call filters.SetFilterValue(sFilter) 'this sets the filter value
But using this code I wasn't able to set more than 1 filter value, because the function SetFilterValue removes all previous filters, but now I need to set more than 1 filters.
I also tried to separate different filter values with comma, but this did not help.
Also I will be glad if someone could give me a link on documentation about BEx objects in Excel.
Thanks in advance,

PerformancePoint in SharePoint 2010 - Unable to get filter values from... Error 10828

I currently am using PPT to expose data from a Microsoft Analysis Server cube. The cube is wide open and requires no permissions to access.
The behavior of my filters is odd as sometimes they work perfectly fine, and other times I receive the following error upon report run:
Unable to get filter values.
An unexpected error occurred. Error 10828. Additional details have been logged for your administrator.
I have looked at the ULS logs and found the following:
An unexpected error occurred. Error 10828. Exception details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Server.PmServer.QueryTimeIntelligenceInternal(DataSource dataSource, DateTime currentTime, String formula)
at Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Server.PmServer.QueryTimeIntelligence(RepositoryLocation dataSourceLocation, DateTime currentTime, String formula)
An exception occurred while rendering a Web control. The following diagnostic information might help to determine the cause of this problem: Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.BpmException: Unable to get filter values. PerformancePoint Services
error code 20700.
This is odd to me, as I can trick the report to run by changing the date filters to another day, then back to the original days that error'ed out and everything is fine. Some guidance would be appreciated.

Hi,
Do you mean that you have Office 2007 and Office 2010 both installed in you computer?
Based on my test, I copy a Access 2010 database into a computer only installed Offic 2007, then using Excel 2007 to import Access database data, no error occurred.
So double click the Access database to see whether the databased is opened with Access 2007 or Access 2010. If it is opened with Access 2010, then try to save it as Access 2007 to
check the issue.

How to capture the entries based on filter values in oo alv..

Thanks,

How can I pass a filter value to another report?

I'm using a filter within a formula of a field. For example: (FILTER("Facts - Actuals Ledger"."Actual" USING ("Time"."Fiscal Quarter" = '2012 Q 2'))-FILTER("Facts - Actuals Ledger"."Actual" USING ("Time"."Fiscal Quarter" = '2012 Q 1')))*-1
What the above is doing is calculating the variance between Q1 and Q2. My issue is when I drill on this value to a more detailed report, it's combining the Q1 and Q2 values, instead of showing the difference. I'm trying to avoid having to hard code the drill report and was wondering if there's any way to pass the calculated FILTER to the other report?
Thanks.

Hi,
I presume that you want to show the the difference between a prompted quarter and its previous quarter?
If so, I would use the Ago Time Series Function to create a new logical measure for prior quarter e.g.
ago("Facts - Actuals Ledger"."Actual", "Time"."Quarter", 1)
Note that the function should contain the time dimension level for quarter. The 1 at the end is the offset e.g. 1 quarter ago. This measure will now return the prior quarter value for whatever quarter is prompted.
Create a prompt for your report for Fiiscal Quarter, and set a filter in the report for the same column with an operator of Is Prompted.
Add the base measure ("Facts - Actuals Ledger"."Actual") and your new Ago measure to the report. When you prompt the report with a quarter, these two columns will show the Actual amount for the promted quarter and the previous quarter respectively. Now all you need to do is subtract one from the other.
Now, when you drill to another report, the filter value of the prompted quarter will be passed across. Apply the same logic to define measures in the drill report, receiving the prompted quarter only.
Note that you can also use Time Series Functions in the column formula when creating the analysis.
Please mark if helpful / correct,
Andy

List view error "Filter Value is not in a supported date format"

I've column "Name = Order Status","Type = Calculated" & Data Type = "Date and Time". I've given this Condition in the formula:- =IF(NOT([PO Date]=0),"ORDERED","NOT ORDERED"). I'm trying to create view
for this column but its getting error while create the view "Filter Value is not in a supported date format".
Same error I'm getting for column "Name = Status","Type = Calculated" & Data Type = "Number". I've given this Condition in the formula:- =IF([PO Date]="","",IF(NOT([Balance Qty]=0),"OPEN","CLOSED"))

Can you check data type returned for your calculated column 'Balance Qty'?
Try to set it as Number. It may help you.

How to Add a New Filter Value in BEx WAD to Display All Result

Hi experts,
I want to add a new filter value in BEx WAD to display all data records. The scenario is as follows:
The status field can have two values: Active ("A) and Inactive ("I").
But the requirement is to have a third value to display all the data records (Active + Inactive). E.g. the value can be "G". The purpose is to increase the understandability for report users.
Does anyone have an idea?
Regards,
Joon

Hi Vineet,
thanks for your reply. The problem is that there are only 2 values available for this Characteristic: "A" or "I".
The requirement is to have a third value "G" (instead of the default "All Value") due to historical reason, because all future report users have been working with R/3 reports for quite some time and they are accustomed to using "G" for displaying all values.
Is there any possibility to realize this?
Thanks,
Joon

Hi
It depends on the ssytem settings. The problem with your query is that it is not able to fetch all the data due to lack of memory. However, when you are giving smaller range, you are getting the output. You can either ask the basis guy to increase the memory space or try running the query by giving smaller date range.
Hope it helps.

Assigning a DataProvider filter value with JavaScript

I have a "Fiscal Yr/Period" filter characteristic in my web application that I am assigning the value of the current month and year when the web application is loaded. In other words, this filter is applied to the DataProvider when the application loads (code below):
<object>
         <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
         <param name="CMD" value="SET_DATA_PROVIDER"/>
         <param name="NAME" value="C_LPR_Q018"/>
         <param name="QUERY" value="C_LPR_Q018"/>
         <param name="INFOCUBE" value="ZPP_C01"/>
         <param name='FILTER_IOBJNM' value='0FISCPER'/>
         <param name='FILTER_VALUE' value='H12004010'/>
         DATA_PROVIDER:             C_LPR_Q018
</object>
As you can see above, the value for the '0FISCPER' object is hardcoded and thus requires me to change this monthly. I have written some JavaScript code to calculate the current mo. and yr. however I can't get my JavaScript variable that holds the value I need assigned to the FILTER VALUE. Can I even assign a JavaScript variable as the filter value? Is there another way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Allen,
if you want to change any param of an object, try the function SAPBWOpenURL, which should be sent against the object you want to change. Documentation is at :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bw33/helpdata/en/f1/0a5a2ee09411d2acb90000e829fbfe/frameset.htm -> Business Explorer ->
Web Application ... -> Befehl URLs
Concat the date in JavaScript and call
SAPBWOpenURL(SAP_BW_URL_Get()+'&item=...&FILTER_IOBJNM="0FISCPER"&FILTER_VALUE="TheDateYouWant"') (I hope I set the " and ' correctly, better you should check).
For example you can insert :
<HEAD>
<script>
    function callTheTableWithTheDate()
        SAPBWOpenURL(like above);
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY onload="JavaScript:callTheTableWithTheDate()">
It's only a hint, adjust it for your requirements. You can save the date in a cookie too and reuse it whenever you want. You know how to handle cookies ?
    Bye

Passing filter values from column formula in OBIEE 10g

Hi,
I am trying to pass filter value from the column LY Spend YTD columns where we have a filter option and passing the year filter 2013 as below.
FILTER("Fact - Purchasing - Invoice"."LY Spend YTD" USING (Time."Year" = '2013'))
My goal behind doing this is, we have a filter already present for the whole criteria on the year which is 2012.
But specifically for this column i dont want to pass the year 2012 to it, Instead I want to pass 2013 to it. But I am not succeding the result is blank.
Please suggest and let me know if further understanding is needed.

Hi Srini
Thanks for you reply.
I cannot do that way because some measures are satisfying with year 2012 and displaying the data and other measure are satisfying with 2013.
I am working on LY Spend YTD, LY spend YTD - 1, Spend YTD and Year ago spend.
So thats the reason I have thought that way of passing the filter in column formula irrespective of criteria filter.
Please suggest.
