How to see Navigation attribute in Report

Hi ,
  I am working on BI7.0.
  In my Query , material is a characteristic which has 3-4 Navigation attributes. But when I execute the report , I can only see Material data displayed (because only material is in the rows). I also want to see data of its attributes in report results. I dont have authorisation to change the query.
Also I am unable to open the Query in Local view (some connectivity issues).
Can you please suggest How I can drill-down those attributes.??
Also these attributes are not visible in free characteristics.
Thanks,
Su

Hi there,
To use the navegational attributes with drill down, they have to be available in either rows, columns or free characterisitic.
For that you have to edit the query. There's no other way.
But each navegational attribute is also a display attribute.
Therefore, you can after executing the query, right-click over material and select properties. You'll see a tab named attributes where you can add the avilable attributes to the left (so they will be displayed), and change the settings of each one of them (see only key, key and text, etc.), but you can't filter by any of those attributes, or do any drill down options over them. They are only display attributes.
Hope this helps.
Diogo.

  • How to identify display and navigational attributes in report?

    To all of thanks to be in SDN, plz send tue clarifications.....?
    Q. How to identify display and navigational attributes in report?  is there any naming convension differences for both of them?

    This works fine for "powerusers", but for informational users you have to create your own naming conventions for all navigational attributes which are not unique. For example 0COUNTRY may be a navigational attribute of 0CUSTOMER, OSOLD-TO, 0SHIP-TO, 0BILLTOPRTY, 0PAYER. To make the text clear for your users in reports name it CS Country, SO Country, SH Country, BT country, ... as 0COUNTRY could also be a characteristic from the document.
    This means quiet some work especially if you have a multilingual installation, but the information users will be very thankful.
    hope this helps

    I have checked Following and it's Proper.
    1) Multiprovider is active
    2) whether Navigational attribute is identify assign in cubes.
    3) whether sid table thr for info-object.
    4) I could see data in Multiprovider as well as in Cube
    I created report on cubes also and getting same error.
    Please suggest.

    Hi,
    Please ensure that the navigational attribute is checked at the attribute level and also at the Infocube level and also check that correct mapping of this navigational attribute is done at the Multiprovider level.

  • Navigational Attribute in Reporting

    Hi experts,
    Suppose I have created one attribute as navigational attribute in my infoobject characteristic.This Characteristic is in Infocube.
    Now after executing query on this infocube,Can I drilldown from thic characteristic to Navigational attribute to analyse my results more?To achieve this,is it necessary to Switch On my navigational attribute in Infocube?or Can I achieve this even without switching navigational attribute in my infocube?
    rgds,

    Hi experts,
    Thanks for your replies.
    Suppose if I donot want to create Navigational Attribute,how can I do technically,so I can drilldown to this characteristic from my original characteristic infoobject in the report to see more analysis...
    I am thinkiing of creating hierarchy manually from top to bottom by creating one characteristic and adding it as 'external characteristic' in hierarchy tab of my infoobject characteristic which has this hierarchy..Is this an option?Can I still drilldown and see detailed analysis in my reports?
    Thanks for your replies.

  • How to use Navigational attributes in BEx

    Hi experts,
    I have searched many threads regarding navigational attributes in BEX.
    But unable to find any info.
    How the navigational attributes are used in BEx query designer.
    What is the difference between characteristics and Nav attr in Query designer.
    Every one n saying  Nav attr are used for drill down purpose.
    What exactly is this drill down .
    Please send me any related documents also.
    Please answer me.
    Thanks in advance
    Sundar

    Hi,
    Characteristic attributes can be converted into navigation attributes. They can be selected in the query in exactly the same way as the characteristics for an InfoCube. In this case, a new edge/dimension is added to the InfoCube. During the data selection for the query, the data manager connects the InfoProvider and the master data table (u2018joinu2019) in order to fill the Query.
    Navigational attribute is like any other master data attribute except that we can navigate (filter, drill down and selection) in reports on this characteristic.
    Drilldown means after you executed the query , you want to see further detailed data with particular combination ,
    in that case you navigate further or do restiction that is drilldown.
    If you restict a navigational attribute in Query , then it behaves like a normal characteristic and not as a navigation attribute.

  • # values for navigational attributes in report . (Urgent)

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a navigational attributes for time dependent master data. In the report I am not able to see values for that navigational attribute. I see # values for the navigational attributes. I checked the master data of main info-object. every thing looks fine.
    please help me in regarding this.
    thanks,
    Regards,
    Aarthi

    Check the following two things again just to make sure you are doing everything right. These are already mentioned by Bhanu...
    1) Go to the master data table (Q  table or the M table) and check to see if there are M version records (OBJVERS = M). If yes, you need to activate the master data using the program RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN (Change Run). If there are no M version records then check the second step
    2) If you do not enter any key date in the query, it takes the system date as the default key date. So check and see if any master data exists for today's date ?
    Also just curious, which version and support pack level are you on ?

  • How to include Navigational attribute in the selection screen

    Hello All,
    Can any body please tell me how to include a navigational attribute in the selection screen in BEX?

    Let´s go step by step.
    In your example, you mentioned the characteristic called 0MAT_PLANT.  Its navegational attributes are allocated in the same dimension the main characteristic belongs.  So 0MRP_CONTRL, as a navegational attr. must be allocated in the same dimension as 0MAT_PLANT.
    1) In query designer in Bex (left pane) find the dimension where 0MAT_PLANT is allocated.  Find the navegational attr. in the same dimension, 0MRP_CONTRL.  Pls verify you are looking to a navegational attribute, activate technical names and the name of the attr must be 0MAT_PLANT__0MRP_CONTRL.
    2) Below the attribut (still left pane) you will find a Variable icon (yellow).  If you see the "+" symbol, it means that at least one variable exists (standar or not).  Open it and check if the variable suits your requeriment to set it in selection screen.  If not, create a new one (let me know if you need help with this task).
    3) Once you have your variable for the navegational attribute, drag and drop it to the design area (row, column, filter).
    4) Verify the order you want this variable to appear from the menu bar: Query properties -> Sequence of Entry Variables.
    Hope this helps.  Leticia

  • Reg: Display of Navigational attribute in report

    Hi All,
    I have a report built on the multiprovider which contains two cubes say CUBE1 and CUBE2.
    I can see two rows in the report; each row corresponds to these cubes.
    I have customer field and a country field in the report. Country field is maintained in the master data of the customer and is a navigation attribute in the report.
    I can see the Customer filed in the report output but the country field is not showing any value.
    Country field in the customer master data.
    Please provide your inputs, why I am not getting the values in country field.
    Regards,
    Vijay

    Hi Vijay,
    Check the following.
    1. Check if the data is available for country field in the customer master data.
    2. Open cube 1 and check in the navigational fields, Contry is marked or not. If you want to use it in the report, Country field which is in a customer master data, should be marked.
    3. Same way check in cube 2.
    4. Open your multi provider, mark this navigational attribute if it is not marked, and assign it to the cube by right click-> identify.
    if the data is avaialble in the master data, your problem will be solved.

  • How to add Navigation attributes values via ABAP while creation of CVC

    Hi,
    I have a requirement like, I have to add navigational attributes to the cvc record while CVC creation ( /sapapo/mc62 transaction).
    There were two scenarios: 1. Usually when they load master data from BW side those navigation attributes available and when we do CVC creation it's automatically picks those values. If NOT then i have to bring Market segment and Business unit navigational attributes values from ECC via RFC function module by passing MPN and End customer division as a input.
    I am facing problem when BW side if business unit and Market segment were blank.
    Do we have any Function modules available to add navigational attributes data and should update corresponding master data tables.
    Please help me step by step process on this.
    Thanks

    Michael,
    Are you intending this as a commercial solution or a work around?
    To take an existing equivalent, one would build a view in the database tailored for each grid in an Oracle Forms application. Or a separate query layered over tables for each form/grid in a Delphi or Access application? Even if it is ninety nine percent the same over half a dozen forms/grids?
    And now you've added a whole slew of "slightly different" rowSetInfos to maintain.
    So if you wanted to add a column that needs to appear everywhere... you've just increased the workload multi-fold?
    That would be a management nightmare, wouldn't it? Not to mention yet more performance cost and a slower system?
    Hmmmm..... I'm not sure I like where this is headed... someone needs to do some convincing...

  • How to "see" encrypted attribute values (for verification)

    Hi,
    I have enabled attribute encryption following:
    http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-0995/6n3cq3aqc?a=view
    I configured an attribute named "xx-attribute1" to be encrypted:
    C:\SunDS\ds6\bin>dsconf create-encrypted-attr verbose -h foo.whatever.com secure-port 636 dc=orwhatever,dc=com axx-attribute1 des3
    Certificate "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" presented by the server is not trusted.
    Type "Y" to accept, "y" to accept just once, "n" to refuse, "d" for more details
    : Y
    Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password:
    Creating the encrypted attribute "dc=orwhatever,dc=com" for "xx-attribute1"...
    Data have to be imported to have attribute encrypted on "dc=orwhatever,dc=com".
    The "create-encrypted-attr" operation succeeded on "foo.whatever.com:636".
    and then I used dsconf to check that the change "took":
    C:\SunDS\ds6\bin>dsconf list-encrypted-attrs -h foo.whatever.com --secure-port 636 dc=orwhatever,dc=com
    Enter "cn=Directory Manager" password:
    xx-attribute1
    So, that part looks ok.
    I then used dscc to add an "xx-attribute1" to one of my users.
    I would like to actually "see" the encrypted attribute somewhere, just to verify that the value that I entered using dscc was, in fact, encrypted, i.e., something like:
    {des3}xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    I've looked through the files in the "data" directory for this suffix, but I can't find anything that looks like that.
    Is there any way to "see" that?
    To be clear, I know that I won't be able to decrypt the encrypted value. I just want to verify, somehow, that SunDS is encrypting data that I'm entering.
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Hi,
    I think I was able to find the encrypted attribute in xxx_id2entry.db3:
    xx-attribute1: {ckm_des3_cbc}wsRrq1ygL8cnQOXSuu2dAz+1w==
    so, it looks like the encryption is working :).

  • Virtual infoprovider with services - Navigational attributes

    Hi all,
    I have a basic cube in BI system- X , and created a virtual cube in another BI system Y with services to read data from basic cube of BI system X . In BI system Y we built a report on virtual cube. This report (on virtual cube in BI system Y) is using a characteristics say Product group ( which is a navigational attributes of prodect in BI system X).
    DataFlow is as under:
    Basic cube in BI system X:
    Product
    Year
    Amount
    and Product group is switched on as navigational attributes in this basic cube.
    Virtual cube in BI system Y:
    Product group
    Year
    Amount
    Report in BI system Y:
    Product group in rows
    Amount in column
    This report is not working.
    If I do the the following changes as follows then it works:
    1.Use Product instead of product group in report
    2. Switch off navigational attributes in basic cube.
    We are in BW 3.5 and navigational attributes option is ticked on for virtual cube.
    In summary, If I do not use navigational attributes in report and switch off navigational attributes from basic cube then report shows data.
    Could you please help me to figure out the issue.
    Thanks,
    Harry

    Thanks Naga,
    Yes, I tried adding product in virtual cube as well but it did  not work. Secondly, we do not want to add product in virtual cube because of data aggregation.
    Most strange thing is that, once we switch on any navigational attributes on basic cube, function module stop working (paasing any data to virtual cube report). report says no appropriate data found. We are using sap standard function module "RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ_RFC". I debegged this code and no data in internal tables.
    If we switch off all  navigational attributes from basic/source cube this function module provide data to internal tables in code.
    Why function module is behaving like that.
    You guys experience/support/any clue will be appreciated highly.
    Thanks,
    Harry
