Creation of Variable for Hierarchy Node

Greetings...fellow matez,
 I am using Characteristic "0PROFIT_CTR" : PROFIT CENTER
 Here, I created used SAP Standard variable 0N_PCTR (Profit Center/Profit Center Hierarchy)
 This meets my requirement of allowing User to Input the TOP MOST Hierarchy Node basically means my Hierarchy.
 Now, what I need is the ability of a User Input/Key In Variable to ask for a specific Node of my Hierarchy instead of just the 'main' hierarchy
Let me demonstrate with an example :-
At the moment, I have a variable defined for "0PROFIT_CTR". So, I am able to choose "XXX GROUP" as my hierarchy.
Now, under this "XXX Group" I have several Sub-Nodes like XXX-Functional Groups ; XXX-Business Units; XXX-Subsidaries.
How can I create a variable which prompts for this Subnodes of my hierarchy ?

Matez,
Issue remains unresolved.
What I need is a Hierarchy - NODE variable for my "Profit and Loss" Hierarhy
But, when I use the variable option in the 'Selecting Variable for Hierarchy' scree, I only get to choose my Hierarchy instead of my Hierarchy Node.
How can I created a variable of type Hierarchy-NODE instead of Hierarchy for my characteristic "0Account"
Kindly advice matez!

Variable for hierarchy node using in authorization

Hi all,
I have the following problem:
When I create a variable for a hierarchy node and I use it for the authorization, I have the possibility to say, that a user can see all elements under a node.
But it should now be possible, that the user can also see the usage of this node bottom-up ( multi-level usage of this node ).
Is there a possibilty ?
Thanks
Dieter

Hi,
I would suggest you provide more details than just "doesn't work". In addition keep in mind that this is a forum and not an official support channel. In case you need a faster response you should talk to the support team.

How set up visualization attributes for Hierarchy nodes?

I have a hierarchy for 0ACCOUNT and i see in the report the hierarchy totally expanded but in the Query Designer i can
set the values for 0ACCOUNT to show the ID only for every account but the hierarchy have more nodes (text nodes in addition to accounts) i need that ONLY TEXT NODES show the Description of Text Nodes instead of Technical Node ID........in query designer you could set for accounts that show Text, ID or both but in for text nodes there´s no way to do this.......in Query execution you could set up this with extended menu....and you could set up that only shows Text for Hierechy nodes.....I hope somebody could help me with this...
Regards

You are right, the only way to do that is save the query as workbook, then setup the description, text, etc in the workbook , and finally save the workbook in the way you want to view.

Hi,
It is not possible to create the variables on Key figures directly. But we can create a formula variable with processing type 'User Entry' ,SO that the user entered value can be used in the calculations of the query.

How to create variables for offsets?

Hi BW Experts.
I have a tricky one that has been posted before, but I couldn't get my head around a feasible answer just yet.
My customer wants to be able to display his ageing AR report with different buckets, depending on the month.
For example, if it's January he wants to see buckets for 1-30 days, 31-60 days, 61-90 days and 91 to 120 days.
If it's February, he wants to see buckets for 1-28 days, 29-58 days, 59-88 days and 89-118 days.
If it's March, he wants to see buckets for 1-30 days, 31-58 days, 59-88 days and 89-118 days,
and so on.
We have create a structure in the query, filtering the key figure 0DEB_CRE_LC by 0NETDUEDATE. We have a variable for 0NETDUEDATE as a starting date and use different offsets to get the buckets. However, the offsets need to be hard coded, preventing us the flexibility of choosing the days in the buckets.
Is it possible to create variables for the offsets, so the user can choose the days for the buckets at the report run time?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Aline Passos.

Hi Aline,
as user is entering 0NETDUEDATE & he needs different buket for different months, which are more or less decided well in advance, I believe it cane be handled by User Exit varaibles which will draw value from the variable value you have entered & go backward.
you will need to write the ABAP code with your logic to drive the correct user exit values.
hope it helps

Customer Exit variable on Hierarchy Node

Hello Experts
I am in the process of creating a Customer Exit variable on a Hierarchy node. This will be populated at run time based on the value of a Characteristic variable.
The Hierarchy is activated and included in the roes of the report. I would like the end result to be exactly the same as it would if I had manually entered a variable in Hierarchy node variable
I have written exits before for Characteristic variables, however, I am unable to get this to work for Hierarchy Node variables. Please find below the code I have prepared so far. I follow the approach of creating a seperate executable program for each Customer Exit variable. This Program will be called by the Exit.
DATA: l_s_range TYPE rrrangesid.
DATA:l_s_var_range TYPE rrrangeexit.
FIELD-SYMBOLS : <fs_var_range> TYPE rrrangeexit.
IF i_step = 2.
 READ TABLE i_t_var_range
 ASSIGNING <fs_var_range>
 WITH KEY vnam = 'ZMO_WBS_LVL2'. " Characteristic variable
 IF sy-subrc = 0.
 l_s_range-low = <fs_var_range>-low.
 l_s_range-high = '0HIER_NODE'.*
 l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
 l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
 APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
 endif.
endif.
I would be obliged if anyone can help me understand what is being overlooked. The Query is presently returning "No Applicable data found"
Thanks in advance
Regards
Zubin Kurian

Hello
I have made the changes. Please refer the Code below for reference. This code will function display only those Nodes at and below the WBS element(s) that were entered into the variable ZMM_WBS_ELEMT
IF i_step = 2.
SORT i_t_var_range BY VNAM.
 LOOP AT i_t_var_range ASSIGNING <fs_var_range>
 WHERE
 VNAM = 'ZMM_WBS_ELEMT'. " Multiple Value, & Mandatory
 IF <fs_var_range> IS ASSIGNED.
 CLEAR: l_s_range.
 l_s_range-low = <fs_var_range>-low.
 l_s_range-high = '0WBS_ELEMT'.
 l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
 l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
 APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
 ZVAR_COUNT = 1.
 ENDIF.
 ENDLOOP.

Variable for hierarchie node

Hi,
i use in my query different hierarchie nodes in columns
For example
COL A: Hierarchie Countries Node: World
COL B: Hierarchie Countries Node: Europe
in an other Query
COL A: Hierarchie Countries Node: World
COL B: Hierarchie Countries Node: Asia
So i'd like to use a variable for these nodes to enter Europe or Asia.
I've a variable for hierarchies, but when i use it i can only enter the name of the hierarchie. Here countries.
How can i enter nodes in a variable and store them in one workbook with different tables. Both tables use the same query but one with Europe and one with Asia
Thanks for help .... Markus

Markus,
Do you mean to say :
You have different hiearchies in two different queries and would like to enter only the node ? did you try using Hierarchy node variables - this should allow you to select a hierarchy node from the hierarchy attached.
or did you mean that depending on your node input the query should select the appropriate hierarchy - you can try this using a user exit not sure if it can be done in any other way.

How to set enviroment variables for Inso Filter

Hi everyone,
I want to convert word documents to html using CTX_DOC.Filter.According to the documentation,I know I neednot set the 'Inso Filter'in the preference when creating index,but I must set enviroment variables for Inso Filter.
I found the following instructions for it in the 8.1.5 documentation,but I can't understand it well.Is there anyone can tell me how to set enviroments variables for Inso Filter on Windows2000 Server?(My DB version is 8.1.7EE)
Environment Variable Locations
All environment variables related to Inso filtering must made visible to interMedia Text. Set these variables in the following locations:
listener.ora file. This makes the environment variables visible to the extproc PL/SQL process.
The operating system shell from where ctxsrv server is started. This makes the environment variables visible to the ctxsrv process, which does background DML.
Any suggestions are apreciated

NSAPI plugins are normally configured using parameters specified in magnus.conf and/or obj.conf. What plugin requires you set an environment variable?

BPS Variable for hierarchy type User-Exit

I try to make this type of variable.
The variable is NCSTOPU, hierarchy is
NHSTOPU like
NHMAIN
-- 4
    -- 401
    -- 402
    -- 403
-- 5
     -- 501
     -- 502
     -- 503
So The ABAP is
FUNCTION ZCCB_AHR_VAR_HIER.
*"*"Ëîêàëüíûé èíòåðôåéñ:
*" IMPORTING
*"     REFERENCE(I_TYPE) TYPE UPC_Y_VAR_TYPE
*"     REFERENCE(I_AREA) TYPE UPC_Y_AREA
*"     REFERENCE(I_VARIABLE) TYPE UPC_Y_VARIABLE

ZHIER-CHANM      = 'NCSTOPU'.
ZHIER-HIENM      = 'NHSTOPU'.
ZHIER-NODENAME   = '5'.
ZHIER-HIEVER     = 'A'.
ZHIER-HIECHA     = '5'.
ZHIER-DUMMY_LEAF = ''.
ZHIER-DATETO     = '99993112'.
INSERT ZHIER INTO TABLE ET_HIE_NODES.
ENDFUNCTION.
But it doesn't work.
The mistake is
Selected node 5 does not exist
The node 5 selected as the start value for characteristic 5 with the specified compound table does not exist in hierarchy NHSTOPU.
What is the problem?

Configuration of the variable:
Variable Type - Hierarchy node,
Characteristic - NCSTOPU,
Hierarchy - NHSTOPU,
Replacement type - user-exit,
FUNCTION MODULE NAME - ZCCB_AHR_VAR_HIER.
In the planning level the characteristic NCSTOPU is set with this variable.
In the Layout 1) the characteristic NCSTOPU - Lead Column,
                     2) Hierarchy in the lead column - Hierarchical Data Model, BW Hierarchy

How do I create variables and store them?

How do I create variables and store them?

As someone already said, we need to know a little more about what you want to do with these variables, but in general, APEX Items are probably what you want. You can create APEX Items at the Application or Page level. Once you set the value of an item, you can reference it anywhere else in the application. So, if you have an item on page 1 called P1_ENAME, you can reference it on page 32 using bind variable syntax :P1_ENAME. If you just want to store but not display some information, you can use either a hidden page item or an Application Level item. Take a look at the 2 Day Developers Guide for more info.

How do I create folders for variuos apps i.e health, news, sports etc.

Tap and hold down on an app con until it begins to "wiggle", then drag one app icon on top of another app icon to create the folder. Move as many apps as you like into that folder. When you are done, tap the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.
You can also name the folder whatever you want to in the white text field that will pop up when the folder is created.

Creating variable for attribute

Hi guys,
Is it possible to create variable for an attribute. My requirement is that the user wants Serial # as one of the user selection criteria which is an attribute of system code equipment in Dimension material. If not, is there any other possible way to get it in user selection criteria when the report is run.
Thanks in advance.

you cant create a variable on attribute of a char.
other work around is to make Serial # a navigational attribute both in the IO (system code equipment) and in the cube maintenance too. That way in the report the attribute will be available as any other char in the cube.
