Input ready Query - Issue

Hi gurus,
We are on Stack 14 Bi 7.0 and when I create a query on Query designer and try to switch to Plan mode , it appear by defult in dis[play mode.
Even on a key figure to enable it plannble all options appear in display mode . i cannot select Data Can be changed usineg planning functions .
Is it an authorization issue or an isntallation issue , can some body help pls
Thanks

Hi Mayanak,
I could see them but they appear to be in display mode.
How do I reset them to be able to change them to planning mode.
Hope I am clear

Input ready Query - Issue No data available

Hi Gurus
Part of the sand box build I created a real time cube and an aggregation level. I have created an Input ready query and ensured the key figures are having the option of Data Can be changed . Chars are selected with only Master data option.
Query is checked to be started in change mode and extyernal access allowed.
I have run the filter and restricted the master data on company code and business area.
When I execute the query I get a No Data Available . I dont even see the formatted struicture of Master data of selected chars and then Key figure ready to input.
We are on latest SPS . Please advice if I am missing some thing or give tips on how to build a successful Input Ready Query.
Points will be awarded.
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
there is an easy example in the documentation
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/1d023a41130bd5e10000000a422035/frameset.htm
In this examply you may set 'access mode for result values' to 'master data' or 'characteristic relationships' and use a reasonalbe filter on product. Then the query will also show non-posted values.

Data from an Input ready query back into BW

Hi All,
One of the reports I am working on should allow users to write comments for each characteristic value (i.e in each row). I have toyed with different ways of doing it, but based on our company specific requirements, I have finally arrived at this design - Users enter comments in a column in an input ready query and the data is sent back to a real time cube.
However, I have never done this kind of stuff before. Can anyone please give me a step by step procedure of how to achieve this?
The most informative answer will be rewarded with the highest points.
Thank you.

I had already tried the document property in BI, but unfortunately it did not seem to work. This is the error I got when I did a right click on a characteristic value -> Documents -> Create new comment
u201CCannot determine the KM folder for storing documents with these types of propertiesu201D
u201CError while launching new document dialogu201D
http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/6505/docproperror1wg8.jpg
When I asked my basis team about this error, they had no clue what it meant and they thought it had to do with KM, and currently we do not have KM enabled in BI portal. Thats the reason why I had look for an alternative. However, I am pretty sure its not a KM issue because I believe "Characteristic is a Document Property" is a standard out-of-box BI property.
Do you know what that means and how to fix it?

Problem with input ready query with structure in Rows

Hi,
First I have created an input ready query without a structure where I have GL accounts in rows and key figures in column. It works and I can see that the cells are ready for input when I launch it in web through query designer.
Later, I am replacing the GL accounts in rows with a structure. Each line in the structure is combination of GL acctUoMChart of Acct (all restrcited to single values). Here comes the issue. When I run the query again (launching thru query designer) it dumps. Any idea?
Also, please let me know whether the planning applications can be made using BEX analyser OR WAD ?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
SSC

Hi,
Can you check ST22 for the dump analysis.
Also, planning applications can be built using BEx analyzer or WAD.
Check this link for example and step-by-step procedure to do the same.

Error in Integradted Planning - Input Ready Query Design

Dear Gurus,
I am facing an error while designeing input ready query. I have created a query on Aggr. Level which is on Multi Provider.
I have 2 key figs. In my second key fig. I have restricted Planning Infor priovider with Plan version for version info object , Calender Year/month , and other info object of version , I have selected Variable for input.
When I am going to Planning tab of this key figure in change mode option I have selected Data Can be changed using user entries or Planning Functions. But my other options i.e. Disaggrgation and Type of Distriburtion are in the freezed state. That I can't select any of them. The system is giving Red hightlights and the highlight is showing error " Not Supported by Server"
Can you please advice me where is the problem ?

Copy Input Ready Query Variables into Planning Sequence

Hi all,
       We have the following scenario. We developed a model using Web Template. The model has an input ready query and a Panning sequence associated with it. Both of them using the same Planning Filter that has a input variable for Profit Center (say ZPCTR). If I run this model in Portal the planning sequence automatically takes the variable given for the input ready query and the sequence runs without any problem.
       We were asked to implement the same model in BEx as the users felt more comfortable using Excel when working on this model. When we assinged the planning sequence to a button and after we run the input ready query and then click on the button to run the planning sequence, we get an error message saying "You have to enter values before you execute". The Planning sequence is not taking the values we enter for the input ready query automatically.
      I read through the forums on the same issue and saw that most of them reported about the same but could not find a conclusive answer. I tried the following options.
1) Enter the expected values in the excel in one location and gave the address in the "Command Range" of the planning sequence. Still it does not work.
2) Tried SAP suggested method as given in http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/45/e301089d574a88e10000000a155369/frameset.htm It also does not work
3) Couple of them suggested to use a different variable for Profit Center in the filter of Planning sequence (say ZPCTR_EXIT) and populate this variable. I wrote an exit for this variable and populated a fixed value say '100' into it. The sequence runs as expected. But I do not want use a constant, I want to store the value entered in ZPCTR into ZPCTR_EXIT.
   when I use the regular logic "LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO var_inpiut WHERE vnam = 'ZPCTR' ", it does not work. the exit variable works if I store some constant values, not variable values.
    Can you please suggest how can I work with this. Is there any table from which I can read the profit center value the users enters into the Exit variable.
Thanks for your time,
Ram.

This error generally comes when we use some user input variable in the sequence which is not restricted in the query. Even though you are using the same filter for both planning sequence and query, check the planning functions inside the sequence which might read an user input variable which is not available in the query so that it is not appearing in the query selection screen. Like in FOX reading a variable using VARV or a variable restricted in the field for condition of planning function etc. Make sure that all the variables used in the sequence (planning functions) are kept in query restrictions if they are of type ready for user input so that they will appear in the selection screen.

Restriction data entry for input ready query

Dear All,
I have an input ready query with two structures for rows and columns.
However, I have set one of columns' structure's member as "data can be changed with planning functions", i'm able to enter data for that column. When i execute save function, entered valus are being disapperaed.(not benig written to the cube)
But i want to restrict data entrance for that column. (Like display functionality in BPS)
I know i can protect fields with excel functionality, but we are using web environment.
How can i resolve mentioned issue?
Thanks
Alkan

Hi Bindu,
Thanks for your quich answer.
In web environment, i think i need to use WEB API.
Do i need to write java script? Or is there any particular class to manage the properties of the cells?

Wrong cache for input-ready query

Dear Expert,
I encountered some issues about input-ready query. When I first open one input-ready query and input some plan data, I can save the data successfully. But after I saved data for the first query, if I don't re-connect the analyzer and open a new query, usually the plan data in the new query can not be saved successfully. After re-connect the analyzer, it works well. When I debug it, if I do not re-connect analyzer, I found the new query I opened still got some data which belong to the first query (Such as variable value). I guess it probably caused by some Bex cache? (It's not OLAP cache in RSCACHE, as we have disabled the cache for planning query in RSRT).
Could you please help me with this? Is there any way we can disable this kind of cache for the input-ready query? Or if we have any solution to clear this kind of cache without re-connect bex analyzer every time when I open a new input-ready query.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Fuyang,
We are facing similar problem.
1st problem:
(1) When we run workbook that time variable values are automatically filled up.
(2) Variable values for version, year is filled up and then query output is displaying.
(3) There is no personalization or variant used. Its looks to me Values are coming from Cache.
(4) Cleared RSRCACHE and there is no cache used for this query.
(5) If we enter version = u201CZ2010u201D and Year = u201C2010u201D and after running workbook (input query) and then closing and reopening same variable values are coming. If we change version from u201CZ2010u201D to u201CZ2011u201D and run/save query and again reopening version variable values are coming again to u201CZ2010u201D.
2nd problem:
(1) We have planning sequence which is using below variables.
(2) Version, Year, Plant.
(3) Version and Year is input ready variables
(4) Plant is Userexit variable.
(5) Plant Dropdown is used.
(6)When we execute planning sequence first time without filtering plant then it is working fine. Receiving message u201C100 records read,100 records changedu201D u2013 This is working fine.
(7) When we use plant dropdown and filtering u201CABCu201D plant then planning sequence working fine and receiving message u201C20 records read, 20 records changedu201D u2013 This is working fine.
(8)When we clear drop down/filter using CMD - REMOVE FILTER which is used in button clear plant u201CABCu201D filter. u2013 This is working fine.
(9) Then we again apply planning sequence for all the records and receiving message u201C20 records read, 20 records changedu201D. This is not working. The message should come u201C100 records read,100 records changedu201D
This time plant variable has still with value u201CABCu201D and not clearing in variable cache.
We are on below BI 7 level and above application is Excel based.

Input ready query on Multiprovider displays two row for two Infoproviders

Hello experts,
We are using below design to develop an input ready query.
                   Input ready query
                       Multiprovider
Aggregation level 1      Aggegation level 2
Realtime cube 1            Real time cube 2
As we are developing Input ready query on multiprovider, it is automatically creating characteristic named 0INFOPROV at multiprovider and query level. 0INFOPROV contains values of Infoproviders on which multiprovider is created.
char1 cha2 Infoprovider                    key1     Key2
R1       #       Aggregation level 1        10          #
        P1     Aggregation level 2         #              20
During planning, we have to plan on separate row for each infoprovider.
is there any way we can avoid this issue and perform planning on single row for both infoproviders?
Thanks,
Mitesh

*****Can we make charcterstics as a Input ready in the input ready query.**

Hi experts,
Our business requirement as follows.
the existing business scenerio is, Master data ( say Product list ) )will comes from CRM , By using the input ready query , we will plan against to that master data by using IP.
But my requiment is " though the master data is not avilable( say new product came into the market which is not avilable in CRM) in the CRM end, user wants to enter the that product name directly in the input ready and also user wants to plan against that product.
As per our requirement , user wants to enter charcterstics directly in the query like entering the key figure values directly in the input ready query.
As per as my knowledge concern , this functionality is not avilable in IP.
so can you please suggest if any other work around solutions for this to fix this issue.
Thanks,
Subhratha benargeee.

Hi Subhrata,
As I said, its not possible in IP at all. If we talk technically, IP infrastructure needs SID's. Meaning it communicates through SID values.
Once you enter characteristic value in the query, the system automatically sends the SID values to OLAP when the round trip happens. There was a certain period of time, when system automatically used to create sid's if there does not exist that value in master data for the characteristic. I dont remember the exact support pack, But that was a bug and has been fixed. Its not possible in any form web, bsp or bex analyzer on OLAP write infrastructure. As long as you dont find some RFC which can write this value to the master data table of the characteristic before the OLAP is triggered.
I understand you are writing transaction data only, But OLAP works through SID's when it gets data from infoproviders. So due to the same reason without an entry into sid and master table of the characteristic there can not exist an entry in the infoprovider. OLAP simply can not communicate without SID's.
Now coming to the scenario I explained earlier, its Business Planning & Simulation. If you design your planning application on BPS, you can design web interfaces which is a BSP application can achieve what I said.
Its not the speciality of BSP(business server pages) which is making it possible, But the BPS interfaces are designed such a way that it communicates directly through master data and text table of charcteristics.
As of now, I do not have a solution for your scenario on IP, If I find or come across one I will surely let you know.
All the best.
Best regards,
ravi.

Integrated Planning input ready query

Hi All,
I am new to integrated planning. I have created an input ready query with key figure "revenue" ready to input.
When I run the query, I can change the revenue figures, but the save button is greyed out.
Is this an authorization issue or am I missing something?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hello Payal,
I sugguest to read the documentation on help.sap.com about BI Planning; the documation contains an example how to create a planning application with BEx Analyzer.
I did not mention what UI you are using, BEx Analyzer oder BEx Web Analyzer. In both cases there is no default save button, you have to create it, e.g. in the design mode of BEx Analayzer oder for the BEx Web Analyzer in the WAD (Web Application Designer).

Input ready query / derived currencies

Hi all,
I have an issue regarding an input ready query with multiple currencies:
The query should enable the input of plan values for several reporting units, each with its own local currency. If I restrict the currencies using variables, I naturally get all possible combinations of currency and reporting unit as input ready. This allows the user to make wrong entries and is not very user friendly.
I wanted to restrict the currency using characteristic relationships but encountered several issues:
- Local Currency can not be chosen as attribute or DSO based characteristic relationship in the Modeler.
- when using a char. rel. based on CL_RSPLS_CR_EXIT (derive method) I receive the error msg "Cannot generate combinations in step '04'" everytime I restrict local currency to generate combinations based on char. rel. rather than master data in the query.
Do I have to implement the create method of the char. rel. exit? If yes is there some documentation available? Or could somebody give me an advise for an alternative solution?
Thanks,
Viktor

Hi,
I think this works out of the box.
Assume the characteristic 'reporting unit' has a currency characteristics containing the local currency as an attribute. Both, the 'reporting unit' and the currency characteristic have to be in the InfoCube and aggregation level used for the input-ready query. Create a characteristic relationship of type attribute containing the above characteristics and use 'access mode for result values' based on characteristic relationships for both characteristics in the query. But both characteristics e.g. in the rows of the query and you should only the valid combinations of 'reporting unit' and currency.

Gregor

IP: input-ready query shows data in Load mode but not in Plan mode

Hello experts,
we're currently experiencing a very strange issue regarding an input-ready query which consists of a single lead column (read from the cube) and an input-ready plan column. The issue is as follows:
When the cube is in Load mode the lead column shows its data perfectly. However, when switching to Plan mode the data is not shown.
The cube is indexed by a BIA which may be part of the problem.
We're on BW 7.00 SP 21. I've read that this may be related to the OLAP cache, but haven't been able to find any notes relevant for 7.00 SP 21.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Regards, Dirk

Hi Dirk,
I think that the problem comes from the cache used in the plan buffer query. Delete the cache via RSRCACHE. The query name is
IC/!!1IC if you have a query on an aggregation level on an InfoCube IC
MPRO/!!1MPRO if you have a query on an aggregation level on a multiprovider MPRO or directly on the multiprovider MPRO
You might search for note using 'cache' and component pattern BW-BEX-OT*, e.g. 1408959, 1528191, 1560036.

Gregor

Input ready query is not showing loaded data in the cube

Dear Experts,
In Input ready query we have problem that it is not showing the values which was not entered by throught hat query. Is any settings in input ready query that we can do to populate the loaded data on the cube as well as data entered through Input ready query itself.
Thanks,
Gopi R

Hi,
input ready queries always should display most recent data (i.e. all green and the yellow request). So you can check the status of the requests in the real-time InfoCube. There should exist only green requests and maybe at most one yellow request.
In addition you can try to delete the OLAP cache for the plan buffer query: Use RSRCACHE to do this. The technical names of the plan buffer query can be found as follows:
1. InfoCube\!!1InfoCube, e.g. ZTSC0T003/!!1ZTSC0T003 if ZTSC0T003 is the technical name of the InfoCube
2. MPRO\!!1MPRO, e.g. ZTSC0M002/!!1ZTSC0M002 if ZTSC0M002 is the technical name of the multiprovider
If the input ready query is defined on an aggregation level using a real-time InfoCube, the first case is relevant; if the aggregation level is defined on a multiprovider the second case is relevant. If the input-ready query is defined on a multiprovider containing aggregation levels again the first case is relevant (find the real-time InfoCubes used in the aggregation level).

Gregor

Can not change data in Input Ready Query

All,
I have created an input ready query on an aggreagation level which has one transactional cube underlying it however, after run the query I am unable to change data in the cells even though I get a warning message saying query is ready for input
Note:
1. The underlying realtime cube is in "Planning Mode:Loading not allowed" state in rsa1
2. I tried including all characteristics so that the record can be uniquely identified at that aggregation level).
3. I am not using any characteristic restrictions
4. I have not set any data slices
5. I have set the property for Planning "Start query in Change Mode"
6. I have set the 'Key Figure' Planning Properties to "Can be changed Manually or via Planning Functions" for the key figures
7. I do not have currency/unit in row/column.
8. There are any locks occurring
Any pointers welcome.
Thanks,
Milind

Hi Milind,
Was wondering how was your problem solved. I get the same message when I run the query in web from query designer and in bex analyzer the cells are not updated with the changes that I make.
I am hitting my head against the wall to figure what could be the problem as my plan query is simply based on aggregation level created directlty upon the real time info cube.
Have cross checked all the points that you mentioned in this post but I cells do not change.
There should be some way around to solve this problem.
Thanks
