How to exclude values in report selection ?

Hello experts,
I am in NW 2004S BI 7.0 .
My requirment is to exclude some values in the selection screen of a report in BEX.
for examaple, out of 200 employees, i want to execute the report only for 198 employees and to exclude two guys.
Is there any way to achive this in the new version of BEX ?
Regards,
Ravi

Hello Ravindra,
if you have values fixed for a query to be excluded, you can always restrict the infoobject with these values and click the exclude option when restricting. On the restriction screen where you move values from left to right pane, right click on the values and say "exclude"
2. if you want to exclude values during run-time, create variables on that object with user input option. during run-time(i.e while query execution), in the selection screen (i.e values input screen for that infoobject), you can exclude these values.
Hope this helps..
thanks,

Date range as variable values in report selection

On a report selection screen, how can we save range values as variant?
For example, S_ALR_87012341, I want to save the values of from- and to- dates for posting date using dynamic date calculation as selection parameter.
From date: current date u2013 365 days
To date: current date
I can only put one value at a time but not both. Any value I input to the Name of Variable field, it is populated as a from-date value
How can we put both names of variable for the from- and to- dates to the variant attributes?

Hi,
For the example you gave, choose Variable 'Current date - xxx,current date + yyy' , enter 365 and 0 for xxx and yyy and save the variant. When you call up that variant, you will see both 'From' and 'to' are populated.

How to pass value from report to form?

Dear,
I built a report and I create button on report too. This
button will show a form that I want it to automatically show
receivable values from report so that user don't complete them.
So I create a button on the report . I enter Javascript in
PL/SQL Code tab in '...after displaying the footer' as follow :
htp.formOpen
(owa_util.get_owa_service_path||'portal30.wwa_app_module.link?
p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1736929105&p_arg_names=_show_h
eader&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=GNO&p_arg_values=1&p_arg_names
=QNO&p_arg_values=2');
htp.formSubmit(null,'New Answer');
htp.formClose;
GNO , QNO is value which I want to pass
As you can see, the above code can pass only static value.
But I want to pass values that is the condition of this report.
I mean,such as, this report show data that gno=1 and qno=2 and I
want to pass these values to form. So both value will appear in
gno and qno field.
So please tell me what should I do. Please help me. I don't
know how to do it. I look forward to hearing from all of you.
Please!!!!!! Don't hesitate to answer.
Thank you very much

Hi Marc,
Yes, you have it correct in what I am trying to do and if I put a default value in the hidden item on page 2 and run it then that works fine. I just can't get the value from the form passed to page 2 for some reason. There are actually 22 items on the form that can be filtered but just using COREID for simplicity. When I run the form I am just entering a value in the COREID field to try and return those records. Most of the other items on the form are displayed as Popup LOV(fetches first row). Would the values of all these be done the same in a comma delimited list for the items and values? I was trying to get at least one of them working first. Here is the search result that comes up in the debug window:
Search Results
0.01: Item: P2_COREID HIDDEN
0.01: show report
0.02: determine column headings
0.02: parse query as: MOTEAMSAPEX
0.02: binding: ":P2_COREID"="P2_COREID" value=""
0.02: print column headings
0.02: rows loop: 15 row(s)
No data found.
Here is the SQL statement:
select coreid, serialnumber
from MOTEAMS.V_ASSETS where
instr(UPPER("COREID"), UPPER(:P2_COREID)) > 0
The branch settings are:
Set these items: P2_COREID
With these values: &P1_COREID (also tried this with period at the end)
I am new to this and not familiar with apex.oracle.com. How would I go about posting to that site?
Thanks,
Pam

How to exclude values in an exit variable?

Hello experts,
I try to exclude special values from my selection via exit variable but I get an error of invalid values.
could it be that something in my selection table is wrong? Do I have to use an other value for SIGN or OPT to exclude values?
my Coding is:
l_s_range-low = '0000000404'.
l_s_range-sign = 'E'.
l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
I tested my values with include them (SIGN = I) and this works fine.
settings of the variable are:
Type of variable: characteristc value
processing by: Customer exit
variable represents: Multiple single values.
Where is the Error?
Thanks in advance
Johannes

Hi there,
I tried once to do that, i.e., with customer defined variable use the exclude sign 'E' for a variable but it doesn't work.
Don't know why, but excluding values with 'E' doesn't work.
Although it seems stupid you might consider excluding that value directly in the query in filter, or use BT from a value till 0000000403 and other BT from 0000000405 to above.

How to enter values in the selected list by pressing f4

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem can any one help me in solving this?
When we go to any table thorugh se11 or se16 to display all the records based on the selective fields like pernr, company code, benefit plan in a Z-table
Here when I want to display records of selected benefit plans by using the field bplan. here when I go to that bplan field and press f4 then gives me a list of benefit plans, from that list I have to select proper benefitplan for selected records of that plan
1. Question:
I have two new plans , can any suggest me how to add in the f4 list of that field. Is it done through any program?
Another issue,
I have a report program, when I execute it gives me selected list fields like pernr, date, and some more fields. if you select some fields with the help of f4 , we can choose correct value,
2 Question,
I have two new parameters to be added in the f4 list of the fields in the Needed very urgent?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi
You can create a search for that field with more than one fields and yu can add the search help for that field
see the doc
1) Elementary search helps describe a search path. The elementary search help must define where the data of the hit list should be read from (selection method), how the exchange of values between the screen template and selection method is implemented (interface of the search help) and how the online input help should be defined (online behavior of the search help).
2) Collective search helps combine several elementary search helps. A collective search help thus can offer several alternative search paths.
3)An elementary search help defines the standard flow of an input help.
4) A collective search help combines several elementary search helps. The user can thus choose one of several alternative search paths with a collective search help.
5)A collective search help comprises several elementary search helps. It combines all the search paths that are meaningful for a field.
6)Both elementary search helps and other search helps can be included in a collective search help. If other collective search helps are contained in a collective search help, they are expanded to the level of the elementary search helps when the input help is called.
CREATION:
Go to SE11 Tcode
select search help
give the 'z' search help name and create
select the selection method ur table name eg : 'mara'
dialog module 'display value immediately'.
add the field whatever u want and lpos = 1 and spos = 1 and check import and export parameter.
where left position when displaying and spos = search position
and then save and activate ..

How to exclude values in the query designer

Hi everybody,
i need your help!
I need to exclude certain information from a report, but as could enter new values in the future, I see it now.
Ex.
CreatedBy contains the following values:
MSanz
PRojas
Soporte
Soporte1
Soporte2
I need to exclude anything value that is Soporte* for first report
and the second report include anything value Soporte*
first report
MSanz
PRojas
Second Report
Soporte
Soporte1
Soporte2
thanks for your help
Manuel
Edited by: Manuel Sandoval on May 30, 2008 6:35 PM

Hi Manuel,
There are two ways to exclude the fields of Createby.
1. Excude Soporte,Soporte1,Soporte2 in the first report. Select createby -->, right click >Restrict> select Soporte,Soporte1,Soporte2 and pull from left to right > right click(3 fields)> exclude.
Similary for second report exclude MSanz, PRojas.
Or
After restricting include only the necessary fvalues from right to left for creteby field.
Best method is include one, for performance point of you.
Second approach is create two user exit variables. one to include Soporte,Soporte1,Soporte2 (3 values) in the variable and second variable to include MSanz, PRojas. You can maintain these two variables values in the tvarvc table and use these variable in the reports directly. This approach is very very useful if you want to use this variable in many reports ex, 10 or more. Directly you can drag createby and its corresponding variable.
Choose the best approach for your requirement.
Hope it helps.

How to retrieve values from Dynamic Selection screen while using LDB - PSJ

I am having problem in PSJ Logical database. In a custom report which is using PSJ LDB, we are using PROJ and PRPS_R tables.
When I run program it displays one dynamic selection screen, there we are giving selection criteria for PRPS (Master data WBS element) - Created on (giving some range like 2011/01/01 to 2011/01/31).
So I want to display all WBS element which are created during the period (2011/01/01 - 2011/01/31).
How do I retrieve the select-option low and high value of the field Created on Of WBS element if we Select data from any table based on this condition.
Please help me.
Thanks.

in fact you don't have to get the values, you only need to tell to the program to take them into account :
GET PRPS.
CHECK SELECT-OPTIONS.

How to use value of Report Rows for another Item heading (interesting)

Hi!
This seem to be interesting question.
I have a classic report which has 4 rows with date values. The Row1 has Date1, Row2 has Date2 and so on.
The report is structured like this
DATE_COL COL1 COL2
Row1 Date1 100 101
Row2 Date2
I want to use the values of DATE_COL of ROW1 which is Date1 in the label of ITEM1 which can be on same page or different page.
Also I want to sue the value of DaTE_COL of ROW2 which is Date2 in the label of Column 1 of Report 2.
How to accomplish this? Appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks,

The report is structured like this
DATE_COL COL1 COL2
Row1 Date1 100 101
Row2 Date2In your report attributes of DATE_COL column > add column link as follows
Link Text: #DATE_COL#
Target Type: URL
URL: javascript:alert('#DATE_COL#');
And set the Display as property to Standard Report Column
Now when the link is clicked you will get the alert with corresponding value
Next step is to set the value as the label of your item.
If it is on the same page
-- Use javascript to set the label
If its on a different page then you will need to pass this value to that target page and set the label using *&P1_MY_ITEM_NAME.* syntax
See this to learn how to pass the value in URL http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23903_01/doc/doc.41/e21674/concept_url.htm#HTMDB03017
I want to use the values of DATE_COL of ROW1 which is Date1 in the label of ITEM1 which can be on same page or different page.
Also I want to sue the value of DaTE_COL of ROW2 which is Date2 in the label of Column 1 of Report 2. You can sue if you are in England! :)

You're going to need to create a User Exit in your query. Here's a link to a helpful document on how to do that:
[Using Customer Exit Variables in BW/BI Reports Part - 1|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20f119d9-922d-2c10-88af-8c016638bd90]

How to supress value '#' in variable selection screen?

Hi gurus,
i wonder if there is any solution for this question:
Before query execution, when system requests variable values, in the list of available values for filtering 0calyear, allways apears value '#' and the rest of values loaded in the infocube.
0calyear is defined as "Only values in infoprovider", and there isn't any blank value ('#') in the dataprovider. I also have executed RSRV tests for deleting unused values in dimension table.
Regards
As allways I'll assign points

So, as I read, there is no way to remove this "# value" from selection list in variable screen, unless i delete this initial entry in p-table. I've tried to delete this entry (vía debug) and its OK, the # value is no more displayed. But I think that it could be dangerous, couldn't it? Anybody know what could happen if i delete this P-entrys in some infobjects?
My question is only about variable input screen, not the results displayed (i knew that you can exclude this value in query definition).

How to dipsplay value of multi select prompt in Answers

I have a request in Answers that has a multi select column prompt. I can display the value selected in the prompt in the Narative view as long as only one value is selected. When more than one value is selected, how can I display the multiple values selected in the Narative view?

Multi select can not be assigned to Presentation variable (It is greyed out), so you can not get the respective values.

How make default values in the selection criteria of BEx query????

Hi all
I have to create a brand new query, in the selection criteria(Prompts) I have two prompts. one prompt should show current budget year and second prompt should show next budget year, both prompts are mandatory and default.
Can any one please let me know how to obtain current and next budget year??? do I need to write any customer exit or do i need to create a offset???
Two prompts are using same infoobject 0fiscper which is mapped to ECC Table MBEW and field is LFGJA.
Thanks

HI sathiyaa,
so you want to show user with two prompts one will show current year and the other next year value by default.
//tell me that if you user change the current year value for ex: it will show 2011 by default.. and user changed it to 2009.
you want to show 2009 year results or 2011 even though he changed the prompt.
Here i'm considering that even though user changed current year to some other year still you want to show the current year results.

Excluding values from variables selection

Hi,
I would like to exclude certain values from the variable selection. There are several plants available in my InfoProvider. But I only would like to show the plant A100 to A400 in the query selection. Is it possible to realize it without using authorisations?
Thanks a lot for your help
Regards
Marco

Hi Marco,
This can be done in several ways...
Make ur variable as selection option. And in Variable screen select Selection Options icon which is next to Save. Under Exclude from selection tab, enter the values that has to be excluded.
If ur variable is user exit variable write an ABAP code to select Plant Values between A100 and A400 using I_STEP=1.
