How to convert a key figure to Characteristic in BEx.

Hello Experts,
I have a key figure of type Quantity unit Second. Is there are way that I can convert this to a characteristic in BEx so that I can use in restrictions (range).
Thanks in anticipation.
Cheers.

There is no feature in BEx to do that. Closest feature is conditions. You could look at creating a virtual characterisitc in the cube.

How to identify which key figure will the numeric pointer for deltas?

Hi All,
I have created a numeric pointer for generic extraction ? but how to identify which key figure will the numeric pointer will use for deltas ?
how to identify the key figures which is suitable for numeric pointer. And the generic extraction is based upon the copa table?
Can anyone suggest me how the numeric pointer works and how to identify deltas are carried out at numeric pointer?
Thanks
Pooja

Pooja,
If you are using a generic extractor which is based on COPA table, then numeric pointer may not be the suggested delta extraction mechanism.
A time stamp would be the better one to use. In a time stamp, you can give a lower limit value of 300 seconds.. so that it will try to fetch the missed records.
Moreover, a delta would be based on a character, preferably a time char.
In your requirement, try to figure out the character on whichdeltas will be based.

How can we restrict Key Figure in the BI System

Hi All,
Can any one explain How can i restrict key figures in BI system.
So when i create a query a specific user can only execute it if a specific key figure is a part of query otherwise he is not allowed to execute a query.
For Example:
A user TEST123 is allowed to execute a query with keyfigure Quantity he is not allowed to execute the query if any other key figure is present in the query
Regards,
Deepak

Hay Diogo,
Bravo...
Your suggetions always work for me. The scenario was that
A user TEST_PLD08 should only allow to see output for the querys which consist of the keyfigure PLDQUACMP and not for other keyfigures while other user TEST_PLD07 is allowed to see the output for querys consist of any of the keyfiguers.
so I have assign a authorization profile PLD_TEST07 to the user TEST_PLD08 with KeyFigures authorization as mentioned below and it is working fine
I EQ :
I EQ PLDQUACMP
You can forward me more scenarios like this if you can think of more it will be really helpful for me

How to create Basic Key Figure, Key Figure and Characteristic

Hello Gurus,
I have copied a standard layout of KP06, named it as a Z- layout and made changes to it, like defined the plan data upload field as Object Currency enabled.
However I want to add a Z-Field , tax holiday unit as a column to this layout which I am not being able to do. The reason is when I go to Insert a new element from Edit > Element > Insert Element and click on 'Key figure with Characteristics' I do not get the Z-Field as a key figure.
I want to define the Z-field as a key figure, so that I can add it as an element.
Would be really nice of you if you can let me know the t-code/menu path to do that.
Regards.

Hello Gurus,
I wanted to share this information with you, hoping this will help you to help me.
I also tried to create a Key Figure in t-code GS32. In the table I mention --> FAGLFLEXR and hit enter. It says no Key figure has been defined for FAGLFLEXR. Then I put the cursor on the 'Reference Entry'and click on copy. Then give the name of the Key Field I want to create.
'Create Key Figure' dialog box appears. When I input the 'Row Text' 'Column Text' and click enter, I am getting an error 'The basic key figure entered for table FAGL is not defined'. I go back and do an F4 on 'Basic Key Figure' field, then I do not get any options.
I would be highly grateful if you can let me know how to create this 'Basic Key Figure' for table FAGLFLEXR.

How to create a key figure in SNP plannignbook which generate FA type order

Hello
trying to create a Key Figure in SNP planning book which generates FA type orders
could kindly suggest how to do it?
thanks
elena

Hi,
You would be having different key figures in SNP. The type of orders that you see in Key figure is driven by type of categories or category group that you assign in planning area to each key figure. You can modifiy these cateogry groups in IMG settings.
When you manually create a forecast through a report then automatically you will see those orders in key figures where you have assigned the category FA.
Hope this helps.

How to get the key Figure values.!.......?

Hi friends...
      I have a scenerio , where I have loaded the data from 3 different data sources say A , B and C in to 2 different DSO s and in to 2 different Info Cubes. And I have built Multi Provider from this 2 Info cubes.
In the data source B , I have BELNR (Parked document number ).WRBTR (for Amount). In the report I have to show a field called Nr of Documents Parked and Value of Documents Parked. Same thing for Data Source C, for Blocked Documents. Now My question is there is no Key Figure in My Data Model to Count the Nr of Parked / Blocked Docs....So in the Reporting how can I show this ? Do I need to use Customer Exits ? Do I need to have CKF /RKF ? if so , from what Key figures ? or Can I get the Count from the Backend (Modelling itself by using a Keyfigure with any Code)?...not only this 2 , I have lot many custom things to do in my Model...If any one can get me some idea on this , remaining will be very easier for me as they all are similar things to do....
Please let me know if you have any questions or I need to elabarate it more to get an Idea on this....
Thanks in advance

THANKS GUYS ,
     I wrote the transformation routiene to count all the parked documents as
IMPORTING
    request     type rsrequest
    datapackid type rsdatapid
    SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/ZPARKBEF TYPE /BIC/OIZPARKBEF
   EXPORTING
     RESULT type tys_TG_1-RSTT_IPTDA
DATA TMP TYPE tys_TG_1-RSTT_IPTDA.
IF SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/ZPARKBEF = 'Y'.
TMP = TMP + 1.
ENDIF.
     RESULT = TMP .
         But when I see the Infocube data its showing only 0 for Parked Before value 'N' and 1 for Parked Before vale 'Y'. But I want to calculate total number of parked documents ..How can I do this?
Thanks

How to copy restricted key figures in query designer ?

hi,
i have created a query in query designer (BI 7.0).
How can i copy existing restricted key figures ? i can't find anything. i always have to create a new one, and then i have to do all the things like 'details of selection' etc.... manually. that CANNOT be, there MUST be a way to copy those key figures.
any ideas ?
best regards, Martin

Hi Martin,
Restricted key figures can be stored on the infoprovider basis . For which right click on the key figure (left hand side pane ), Select the necessary key figure and assign the restriction through characteristics combination, and give it a restriction and save it . Next tiem when you create query on the same info provider it should appear in the left hand side as readymade reusable piece .
Hope that helps.

Behaviour of key figures when characteristic is removed

Hi guys,
in one query I have built it is a business requirement to use key figures where a summation doesn´t make sense and where it does. A summation doesn´t make sense when for example the current credit limit for the current month is necessary. I have also turn over where the summation makes sense for the current month.
For the key figures where it doesn´t makes sense I am using the function "last value" because the last value of for example June 2011 is needed.
It works only when the characteristic 0CalMonth is present in the query. When 0CalMonth is removed on those key figures a summation is done.
For example:
0Comp_Code 0020 0Customer 01 0CalMonth 05.2011 Credit limit 40000
0Comp_Code 0020 0Customer 01 0CalMonth 06.2011 Credit limit 10000
Result Credit limit 10000
Removing of 0CalMonth
0Comp_Code 0020 0Customer 01 Credit limit 40000
0Comp_Code 0020 0Customer 01 Credit limit 10000
Result Credit limit 50000
My wish is to show the current value of 06.2011 even if 0CalMonth is removed:
0Comp_Code 0020 0Customer 01 Credit limit 40000
0Comp_Code 0020 0Customer 01 Credit limit 10000
Result Credit limit 10000
Is that possible when key figures are used in one query where summation and last value is needed?
Does anybody know this problem and can provide a suggestion for a solution?
Thank you in advance!

Hi
You can create new key figure for this & add it in a cube. In update rule for this key figure you can create the 'IF ELSE' formula as required based on the 2 different key figures. Or you can write routine also for this field.
Thanks & Regards

C#: How to convert Keyboard.key (Unicode char as number) into correct char?

Our application uses barcode scanner.
when scanning a barcode and convert Keyboard.key (as ushort with value 16, it represents char ':') by using
1)(char)(Keyboard.key)
2) or Convert.ToChar(Keyboard.key),
both way convert into symbol '+'.
How to convert into ':'?
What is a correct way to convert Keyboard.key as ushort into correct char? Thx!
JaneC

Hi Dan Nemec,
It is normal '+'. It is special '+' symbol.
We search a little bit and find out Unicode ':' is 3A and value is not 16.
So during the process barcode scanner, the value has been changed in some way.
We are trying to find out where the value has been changed.

How to transfer from key figure model into account model?

Hello,buddies:
   If I have a datasource wich upload from FLAT FILE contains only key figures and I know every key figure's meaning,then I want to transfer it into account model.
   For example,I have data like this
training fee salary   compensation
    20000          5000         5678
   then I want to transfer this to:
training fee 20000
salary       5000
comp         5678
because the source contains no cost element,and the target contain elements.
   How can I do this?

Hi Martin,
You can use result table functinality in routines of update rules.
Assuming 0COSTELMNT and 0AMOUNT are the target fields
in your cube, value1, value2, value3 represent fields
form flat file/commstructure code for 0AMOUNT could be like this :
RESULT_TABLE-Amount = COMM_STRUCTURE-Value1.
RESULT_TABLE-COSTELMNT = 'training fee'.
append RESULT_TABLE.
RESULT_TABLE-Amount = COMM_STRUCTURE-Value2.
RESULT_TABLE-COSTELMNT = 'salary'.
append RESULT_TABLE.
RESULT_TABLE-Amount = COMM_STRUCTURE-Value3.
RESULT_TABLE-COSTELMNT = 'comp'.
append RESULT_TABLE.
So you generate 3 records for Infoprovider from one out of commstructure.

Joe

How to fill a Key figure at Query run time

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I have to fill a key figure while the query is running. This value is obtained by multiplying 2 attributes of a Material Master Data object.I could have used Formula Variable but there are two problems -
1. I have material in my info provider but not this Material Master Data object.
2. For a particular material, there are multiple rows in the Master Data object. And I have to pick only one row by applying some condition on a field of the MD object.
Please let me know if there is some way to implement this.

Hello,
You can obtain this using virtual KF. Create a KF and include in the cube on which report is built. Dont have any mapping/rule for the same.
Now write ur code using SMOD and populate this KF during runtime.

How to search for Key Figures in Query Designer 7.0?

Hi,
in BEx Query Designer 3.5 there was a search function to look after key figures or characteristics. Is there a search function in Query Designer 7.0?
Thanks.

Hi,
QD 3.x version has "Find" option to identify the KF and Characteristics,but the same is not available with QD 7.x.
Reason could be:
With QD 7.x,just by typing the starting letters of KF or Characteristics by Keyboard itself,it will highlight you the entries.Hence there is no explicit Find option provided.But in case of QD 3.x,they gave it explicitely.
Rgds,
Murali
