Hierarchy variable in Webi report

Dear all ,
I'm expirence some problems in the Olap Universe , my question is :
I can't see data in Webi report .
Step 1 Create the webi report
Step 2 Run the query
Step 3 Select the Hierarchy variables in prompt parameter
Step 4 Get the msg "No data to retreive "
I can see the data in BW with this Hierarchy variable so i don't understand what it's missing .
Thanks a lot

Dear Sanket ,
Thanks for your response , We are using the dimension it's a member of one hierarchy in the query panel without any filter .
BOE release 3.1 Sp3
BW 7.01 SP6 .
Hope this helps , any further question please let me know .

BEx Variable in Webi Report questions

Hi Gurus,
Here is my issue.
I created a BEx Query 0SD_C03 Cube with following fields
Two Columns
One Key Figure: Subtotal1
One Restricted Key Figure: Subtotal with restriction " Sales Organization 1000"
Two Rows Plant, Sales Organization
One Variable with Sales Organization.
When I ran this query in BEx Analyzer I can see all Sales Organization values in prompt list, How ever when I created a Universe and ran a webi query I can see 1000 in the Sales Organization list.
Is this because I have restricted Key Figure with Sales Organization 1000 in the query?
I removed my Restricted Key Figure from my query and tried again this time I see some 10 Sales Oraganizations but I didn't see all available Sales Organizations. Does BO Universe LOVs restricte the list?
Thanks

Prompt Hierarchy in BO WEBI Report

Hi,
currently we have to implement a functionality in BO WEBI report Prompt where Network and Equipment 2 prompt fields
are present.
User want if they select a Network then the Equipment that belong to that selected Network should shown in Drop Down Values
of Equipment Prompt.
This is a type of Prompt Hierarchy.
Source for the WEBi Report is BW Bex Query. and there is no Hierarchy maintained in Network and Equipment at Bex and
Bw system as well.
Please let me know how can i achieve this.
we are Using SAP-BI4.0 solution.
Regards
Atul

Hi Atul,
You can achieve this by dragging these two fields in the filter bar section of the webi. then apply variables on these fields.
hope it helps

Hiding variables in WebI report

Hi,
We have generated an Universe based on a BW query which has 5 user entry variables with user exit logic coded for each one.
Based on this Universe we wish to create 2 WebI reports.
However, for the both the reports all the 5 variables are displayed.
Is there a way to hide the variables, so that on the first report we see two variables and on the second WebI report we are able to see the remaining three variables.
For all 5 variables, we have some logic on the BW user exits and hence we want to leaverage the BW variables and not opt for the WebI variables.
Rgds

Hi Free Will,
How did you manage to hide the variable, we have a similar issue, I have created a BW variable that is populated by Customer Exit. The problem is, for the query to be filtered in the Webi Report it the variable has to be defined as "input ready", and this allows the users to change the data in the variable which I don't want them to do. If I don't make it input ready the WebI Report is not filtered.
If we could hide the variable it would solve our problem
Thanks in advance

Bex Hierarchy issue on Webi report

Hello Experts,
We are facing issues on use of Bex hierarchy in webi report,
Issue statement: We have webi report on bex query which have table and chart with input control on year and month to filter the report, table and chart uses hierarchy object to disply data. When we refresh report table and chart shows data with hierarchy on first level but once we check or uncheck any value from input control hierarchy in table and chart gets expanded and shows as flat structure. to get correct behaviour we have to collaps hierarchy.
Above behaviour happens for all report level filter like, block filter, drill filter, input control.
Please help me to know this is a bug or something wrong happened with development.
Regards,
Priyank Bhayani

Hello Everyone,
I have got SAP note which states this is expected behaviour hence closing the discussion.
1702356 - Hierarchy Nodes expanded automatically to all levels after selecting value in the input control in a webi report.

Hierarchy variable names in report

I'm would like to be able to display the user selection for a hierarchy variable in a Crystal Report but when I do I get a message that says you can't add this to a report as a field. Is there any way to get access to this so it can be put in the report header? I know how to get the technical name from the parameter, but we need the description.

Hi Ingo and the others,
so, that unfortunately a very hard constraint.
We have for example the following scenario:
A sales Crystal Report which is built on a SAP BW Query. The query contains a country variable, to select the country. Now we want to create Country Sales report. In Crystal the variable is converted into a parameter. The country selection works fine and the report is able to show the correct data. But all this does not make sense with the country name in the report title. Is there no way to achieve this?
Would rebuilding the parameter with Crystal means and deleting it from the BW query an option, or would this have a bad effect on performance issues?
Best regards,
Sebastian

Q: SAP BI Hierarchy look in WebI report

Hi Experts,
I am trying to create a WebI report displaying a hierarhcy and some measures. I wonder if there is any way to get the report to look more like a classic SAP report displaying hiearchies?
Something like the following example:
1) First view of the report:
Hier. Level 1: $300
2) Choose to drill down to next level:
Hier. Level 1 - Hier Level 2: $100
Hier. Level 1 - Hier Level 2: $200
Currently if I make a report with the design in 1 above and drill down; "Hier. Level 1" will be exchanged with "Hier. Level 2" and no longer displayed. I still want to see the top level of the hierarchy after the drill down.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions,
Best regards,
Mikael

Hi Amr,
Thank you for your response. I have read the post and the manual, but the problem is not to define the drill down, the problem is to get the result displayed as I want.
Currently;
We have:
Hier. Level 1: $300
and drill down we get:
Hier Level 2: $100
Hier Level 2: $200
I want:
We have:
Hier. Level 1: $300
and drill down we get:
Hier. Level 1 - Hier Level 2: $100
Hier. Level 1 - Hier Level 2: $200
or:
We have:
Hier. Level 1: $300
and drill down we get:
Hier. Level 1
- Hier Level 2: $100
- Hier Level 2: $200
Any other ideas?
Best regards,
Mikael

BW-Query with hierarchy variable and webi-prompt

Hi,
I think I've got a quite simple question.
I've got a SAP-BW-Query and a hierarchy variable, and some none hierarchy variables.
All Variables work in the webi-prompt.
For the none hierarchy variables I've got the chance to search for values in the LOV, but I can't search for
values in the hierarchies.Can I enable this function to search?
Kind regards
Lars

Hi
I post the error once again. I made an easier query and i saw that last time the forum did some strange things.
A database error occured. The database error text is: Die MDX-Abfrage
SELECT { [Measures].[DC59N8GR349ETCCV3ZHIFFWGC] } ON COLUMNS
FROM [ZTESTM01/Z_ZTESTM01_TEST5_VARIABLE]
SAP VARIABLES [!V000002] INCLUDING [0FISCPER].[V62009001]
konnte nicht ausgeführt werden. Fehler Specify a value for variable
MMEP_FISCPER. (WIS 10901)
The query runs perfect in RSRT.
When i put the statement
SELECT
{ [Measures].[DC59N8GR349ETCCV3ZHIFFWGC] } ON COLUMNS
FROM [ZTESTM01/Z_ZTESTM01_TEST5_VARIABLE]
SAP VARIABLES [!V000002] INCLUDING [0FISCPER].[V62009001]
in MDXTEST, it gives a result.

Hierarchy variables in webi / Universe

Hi,
I am running XI 3.1 and have defined a hierarchy variable in the BW Query. When testing from query designer it works fine (I am being prompted), but the variable is not carried through to the universe and when trying out the universe in webi I get an MDX error.
What am I missing. Anything special to be aware of when it comes to hierarchy variables?
Regular variables show up fine in universe and webi.
Best regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
lets clarify one thing first : there is not need to do any special resitrction in the BI queyr.
enure the characterististic with the variable shows up in the rows / columns, free characteristic or in the restriction area.
try the following :
- go to transaction SE37
- run the function BAPI_MDPROVIDER_GET_VARiABLEs
- as cub-name enter the technical name of the BI Query in the syntax cube/query
in case that list is empty look at the note mentioned above

How to create dummy variable in Webi report in BO 4.0 with Bex query.

Dear All,
We have a requirement where we need to overlap multiple tables and based on user selection any one of the table should display in report.
We are on BO 4.0 and source is BW Bex report, we dont have any Universe.
To achieve this we plan to have dummy variable with some fix value and use it as report filter & based on selected value in filter the related table should be display.
We have not found any way to have dummy variable directly in Webi.
Is their any way we can create dummy variable directly in Webi?
Thanks v much in advance,
Regards,

lets say u want to display following picture:
sept$-----august$
City
-chicago123$--
44$
so in Query designer go to Default values section.
Bring in Calendar month
right click calendar month
and hit Restrict
now select variable
use standard sap variable Current Month.
hit okey
now select Variable and hit Red button
Result u restricted current month.
in columns bring in keyfigure $
right click and hit edit
bring in time field calendar month
right click and hit restrict
bring in Current month
right click and select - SET OFFSET FOR VARIABLE
select -1
hit okey
repeat the above process
and this time select offset = -2
this way u restricted current month
but displayed last 2 months for keyfigure values.

Variable in web report selecting '#'

Hi,
When I execute a BW report in Web, something really strange is happening.
I have got an optional variable for calender month. Whatever value I select, it changes to '#' by itself. It works well in RSRT.
If I type the value for e.g. 02.2007 manaully then it works well. But only when I select the variable value from the list (F4) then press "Add" and then "ok", it replaces the value with #.
Does anyone know why this is happening and what the solution to this.
Thanks,
Waseem.

Hierarchy Analysis Authorization in BW and BOBJ Webi Report

Hello,
We have a scenario wherein we have implemented Analysis Authorizations (Hierarchy) on Organizational Unit info object (0ORGUNIT) and need to report on BOBJ WEBI. Our scenario is as following
ORGUNIT    - L0 (Overall Enterprise Level)
-     L1 (Enterprise - Continent Wise Split)
-     L2 (Enterprise u2013 Country Wise Split)
-     L3(Enterprise u2013 City Wise Split)
E.G-
      LO (Company ABC) MANAGER 0 will have access to the entire organization
           -L1 (ASIA) MANAGER1 will have access to ASIAN Subcontinent
                  -L2 (India) MANAGER 2 will have Access to country India
                            -L3 (New Delhi) MANAGER 2.1 will have access to city Delhi
                            -L3 (Mumbai) MANAGER 2.2 will have access to city Mumbai
                   -L2 (Malaysia) MANAGER 3 will have access to Country Malaysia
                              -L3 (Kuala Lampur)
                              -L3 (pahang)
             - L1 (Europe)
                                        u2026..
The requirement is that the CEO of the company should be able to see the entire set of data ( L0-L4).We have continent managers who can see that data specific to their continent, similarly at L3 Level the city manageru2019s should see the data only for their specific city.
In BI we have used analysis authorization based on hierarchies. We have created an authorization object say ZAUTH1 and have assigned the hierarchy L0 from RSECADMIN. Now, in Webi when we create a report a sample row comes as :
L0 Org Unit     L1 Org Unit     L2 Org Unit     L3 Org Unit     SALES Key Figure
Company ABC     Asia          India          Mumbai          1000
Now, we have MANAGER 2.2 who has only access to the data specific to his city (Mumbai). There is an Analysis Authorization object created for him ZAUTH2, by ONLY assigning the org unit hierarchy L3 (for Mumbai). When we run the bex report with the user MANAGER 2.2 u2013 it correctly displays the result and the user is only able to see the data for L3 Org Unit (Mumbai). However when you bring this data to Webi u2013 the report comes in the below format:
L0 Org Unit     L1 Org Unit     L2 Org Unit     L3 Org Unit     SALES Key Figure
Mumbai                                           1000
The L3 org unit has now got assigned to L0 Org unit , as this is the only org unit assigned to the MANAGER 2.2 user .
In such a case we are not able to write any generic formulae for the report. Is there a way to correct this issue? u2018Mumbaiu2019 should either get assigned to the L3 OrgUnit column is webi report , or is there a workaround that is possible ?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Vj

Hi Vijay,
The problem you speak of is known and comes from the fact that the hierachy is flattened in the process of delivering it to WebI. Therefore there is no real 'solution' to the problem, just some work-arounds you can think of...
1)
Create a report variable that starts looking at the lowest level, if it is empty check one up, and so on until you found what you were looking for (the lowest leaf available), which by definition must be there (even if it is top level).
Using similar logic you can also get a 'number of levels avaible' and so fill in the complete tree (duplicating the highest level).
This is difficult to explain when end users create their own reports, though you could provide a template report with these variables in there already.
2)
Extend the hierarchy with duplicates below the lowest level.
So i.e. L0 Company - L1 Continent - L2 Country - L3 City- L4 City - L5 City- L6 City.
This will give back on the four levels for top authorization
L0 Company - L1 Continent - L2 Country - L3 City
For authorization on Continent:
L0 Continent - L1 Country - L2 City- L3 City
For autorization City
L0 City- L1 City - L2 City- L3 City
So in all situations the fourth level, the L3 Object will hold the City level.
This you can then use in your report.
Hope this helps,
Marianne

WEBI Report Use of Variable in Drill Down

Hi,
i am new to BI Webi report just doing some practice exercise from E fashion Universe. Need your help in creating a WEBI report which should show Sales Revenue broken down to half-year level.
For example:
We have Year, when we drill Year 2004, it should not show Quarter infect i want to see 1st Half Year as Q1;Q2 and 2nd Half year as Q3;Q4 for that year.
For this i have created a Variable "Half Year"
=If([Quarter]InList("Q1";"Q2");"1st Half Year"; "2nd Half Year")
Is there anyway i can use this variable so when i drill Year it should Sales Revenue Broken as Half Year
Thanks

Hi Kamal,
1) Create Half Year object in Universe.
2) You can create custom Hierarchy in Universe like-
Year
Half Year
Quarter
Then you can drill down to Year>>Half Year>>Quarter

Select-option of a variable is acting wierd in web report

Hi,
I am getting the following error in web report when I click a select option button of variable. Has any of you come across this situation ?
Error: <b>"System error in program CL_RSR_WWW_RENDERER and form GET_VARDEF_FOR_F4:03 (see long text)"</b>
We are on BI 7.0.
The ABAP code in the above mentioned Class & method are in sync with a relevant OSS note 671405.
This is kind of wierd to me as it doesn't give any error when I run the same report in our QA Portal, It is happening only in our BW Production system.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
MG

The OSS note you specified is for 3.x and you mentioned you are on nw2004s.
Whats the Support pack you on currently.
I saw couple oss for SP-8 and 9 for the error you mentioned howver ,I presume you should be minimum on SP-10 ,so those may not help.
You may wish to take a look at OSS below-
Note 1018019 - Hierarchy node selection without hierarchy in web F4(7.X)
PS- As a part of sanity check if your QA and PROD are on same support pack.
Hope it Helps
