How to create a variable in BEx 7.0

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me how to create a variable in BEx 7.0
In 3.5, when we right click on a characteristic, we used to get an option for restrict.
I cant find any such option in 7.0

Hi,
Right click on the characteristic 0CALMONTH in the default values or drag it to char. restriction section and say restrict.Pull the drop down menu in that to select variables. There u will get a create icon.Click on that...then in details tab u can specify whether mandatory,interval and all..

How to create Text Variables in BEx Query Designer

How can i create Text Variables in Bex Q.D.
I am able to create characteristic variables
but i can't find option to create text variables.
What's the requirement to create Text variables in Bex Q.D.
When i try to create Text variable for 0calDay.. the variable type is characteristic by Default and disabled.
How can i create text variables related to 0CalDay with which i need to work in Customer Exit.

Hi,
You have to create characteristic variable processing by Customer Exit by considering 0CalDay as a Reference Characteristic
After creation of the above variable, you restrict your KF with the above created variable.
Now you can create a Text variable for the description of your KF. This way it works...........

How to create selection variables on the KF

Hi,
i need to create a variable on the CKF and the user is going to give the selections like >90% or <100% in the variable screen before runing the report.on the report should show the values based on the selection.
1.how to create the variables on the CKF.
2. how to restrict the values and give the selections(like >90%,<100%) values in the selections.

Hi Venkat,
You can achieve this by the following way:
1. Create a CKF or a local formula(based on which queries it needs to be used)
2. Then go to BEX Query Designer -> View -> Conditions
3. Create New Condition -> select 'New' -> Select your CKF/Local Formula -> Define your Operator ( BT, GT, LT, Top % etc.) -> Create a Formula variable (Ready for input with Processing type as ;manual Input')
4. DO the char. assignement for the condition with your condition definition
4. Execute the report with your values.
This will solve your prob.

Try this logic in a customer exit:
DATA: l_s_range TYPE rsr_s_rangesid.
DATA: X_PERIOD LIKE T009B-POPER,
           X_YEAR   LIKE T009B-BDATJ.
CASE I_VNAM.
WHEN 'ZPREVWORKDAY'.
    DATA: l_DayOfWeek(1) TYPE C,
          l_act_date     TYPE d,
          l_prev_date    TYPE d.
    l_act_date = sy-datum.
    CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_COMPUTE_DAY'
         EXPORTING DATE = l_act_date
         IMPORTING DAY = l_DayOfWeek.
    CASE l_DayOfWeek.
      WHEN '1'.
        l_prev_date = l_act_date - 3.
      WHEN '2'.
        l_prev_date = l_act_date - 1.
      WHEN '3'.
        l_prev_date = l_act_date - 1.
      WHEN '4'.
        l_prev_date = l_act_date - 1.

How to create Presentation variable for columns and to use it in Narrative?

Hi All,
Anybody know how to create presentation variable for a column (i.e., i need to create it in edit formula section itself). And then, I should use it in Narrative section to display that column value. Is it possible? Or do i need to use any other variable for this requirement? If so please let me know, how to create it? This is very urgent requirement.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Satya,
I just want to create a table that should horizontally display the values like below:
     SUID Tag # :123456               Year Mfg: 2007
     Description: computer corporation FA ID#: 4576
     Model Number: 4569 hESC: #ert
     Serial Number: 78945 Flags: c
Department: Hematology
User: thenmozhi
Database: OLAP
I think we can create this type of report using either Narrative or Static Text. But I am not sure whether it is possible or not? And also another thing is that sectioning is applied for SUID Tag # column. So, depending on the dashboard prompt if the SUID Tag # retrieves two or more values.
Then the first value for example 123456     and the values for the other columns related to this SUID Tag # value should display in the first page (i.e., page 1). And if the next value of the SUID Tag # for example say 678901 then the values should move to second page that is like this:
     SUID Tag # :678901               Year Mfg: 2008
     Description: Computer Manufacturing FA ID#: 4577
     Model Number: 4570 hESC: #eth
     Serial Number: 78946 Flags: G
Department: Hematology
User: Rehman

How to create selection variable on a Key Figure

Dear Experts,
I have a key figure 'No of Days' in the BEx Query. I need a selection variable which when the users provide the input, should give me the report output where the rows shows only those whose No of days are less or equal to the input value.
I am able to create such a selection out of a Characteristics field but I am unable to create one from a key figure.
Kindly note that we are not using the BW Portal. We are running this report in the webi from a Universe created from the BE Query.I know that it is possible to ceate such a scenario in Webi, but we want the selection coming from the BEx Query for better report performance.
Thanks,
Sai

Hi Experts,
Thanks for the suggestions. I cannot use the 'Condition' since this BEx query is being called from a Webi report. MDX will not recogonize the condition.
I was able to create a Variable and use it in the calculated key figurare. The problem is , I am getting 1 where the condition is met and 0 when the condition is not met. But I want to see only the results where the condition is met. How to to avoid the rows where the result is not met.
Am I getting this because there are actually 3 other key figures along in the query in addition to the key figuare ' No of days'.
Should I add some condition to the other key figuares also.
Kindly confirm and help.
Thanks,
Sai

How to create a variable, and how to use the same across all the reports?

Hi,
Is there any possibility of creating a variable at once and making use of that across in all the Crystal Reports?
Thanks In advance for your time and solution.

MohanMRK,
can you describe how you get the value for this variable?
is it calculated on one report and then you want to pass it to a 2nd report? if that's the case, what you can do is have the reports linked via an opendocument link and pass the value to the 2nd report as a parameter. the value / parameter is only shared when you press the opendocument hyperlink.
please see the sdk library [here |http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/sdklibrary]and scroll down to the opendocument section near the bottom.
if you are just trying to find a way to share a calculation across reports look into creating a Custom Function which can be added to your repository. please note that this will not pass a calculated value across 2 or more reports, but will just have a shared method of making the calculation.
as Abhilash mentioned before, there's no way to use an actual Variable across 2 separate reports without them being a main report and subreport(s). in that case you'll want to look into Shared Variables.
cheers,
jamie
