Input Ready Query without unit / currency

HI ,
In my input ready query, it is enabling along with the unit / currency. How to show the input ready query without unit / currency
if I use NODIM() function, it is not possible to creating input ready field.
Please suggest me is there any way to create input ready field without unit / currency.
Thanks and regards
Rajesh

HI Hyma,
1.use the currency / unit field in the filter or drilldown
In this case if the query may have more than 2 fileds which are input ready having differnt unit/ currency, for Ex: Amount = Quantity * Rate
Currency for amount and Rate is INR and for Quantity is Tonnes. if I restrict both INR & TO in filter, in the system it will store both currency and unit for amount, rate and quantity.
HI Andrey,
2. 0CURRENCY or any currency IO that you use in ROWS of query
In this case also, if I use only one type of currency/unit as input ready then it is fine,, but in my query I want to use more then one currency/unit at a time.(As above Example)
Please suggest me how to solve this...
Regards
Rajesh

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.

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.

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.

IP: How to hide currency/unit from input-ready query headers?

Hi,
Is there a way to hide currency/unit from input-ready BEx web query headers? I've used NODIM-concept for read-only reports, but with input-ready it won't work since formulas cannot be input-ready. Is there a setting somewhere or workaround? The web query is published by WAD.
Thanks!
Aki

Hi Aki,
If you wanna do this in input-ready query, there is only one scenario: you restrict 0UNIT and 0CURRENCY as one certain constant value for the 'Characteristic Restrictions' in the 'Filter', and DON'T set the according 'Can Be Changed at Execution' selected. Then the 0UNIT and 0CURRENCY can be put into 'Free Characteristics', no neccessary moving them to data area.
If there're multiple value for 0UNIT or 0CURRENCY for your planning, you can't hide them in data area of INPUT-READY query, since they belong the dimension 'U'.
Hope this will help.

Hide currency in input ready query

Hi gurus.
I want to hide the currency in one input ready query; I do it with the NODIM instruction but after that the query is input ready anymore.
Anyone has a solution?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
since currency is connected with the key figure, you can not get rid of it.
We use 2 approaches:
a) if we do have refenrence data including currency - we show booked data in the query, have currency in the lines and hide it (no display).
b) if we don´t have refenrence data, we use a key figure for input which is just a number without curency and have a function in the background (ususally started when saving button is pressed) which derives the currency i.e. from cost center and populates the real key figure

Unit Conversion in Input Ready Query

Hi Experts,
I need to do unit conversion in Input ready query. here is the requirement.
I have 3 columns in report, 'Year to Last Month', 'This Month' and 'YTD'. In this, 'This Month' is input ready. and YTD is sum of the first two collumns. I have a variables 'This Month' and 'Unit'. User may enter units either in Litres and HectoLitres. depends on the user input, i should get the values converted to corresponding units.
currently, if i use Litres, i am able to get the result in Litres, when i select in HectoLitres, i should be able to convert the values in HL. please let me know if this possible and how.
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards,
Ali.

Hi,
You can try unit conversion planning function,create planning function and add it at the back of button.
Can refer to link below:-
Not sure if it can solve your problem.As it also depends upon source and target keyfigure used.

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

WAD input ready query with new blank rows

Hi all,
İ need to make an input ready query in wad with new blank rows under report.
in mu query i can see posted values where i need blank rows as well.
i have set number of new rows in analysis item.
what else i should do.
when i run my query, it gives warning that i have no columns that i can enter manually.
Any help?
thanks

Hi,
A few points that you should check:
1) Whether all characteristics of the Aggregation level are restricted to one single value except for characteristics included in the rows;
2) Whether all the characteristics included in the rows are displayed with the Key (with or without text);
3) If you have a Unit characteristic in the row, it still has to be restricted to a single value in the filter.
These are some of the typical reasons why I have encountered the same problem!

Input ready query with default data

hi expert
How do I make input ready query to have a default value when signing in using WAD?
thanks.

Hi,
Use the following document for your query. If found useful do grant me number!
Revaluating Planning Functions (with Analysis Web Item)
Use
You want to build a planning application with which you can enter turnover amounts for certain account numbers and revaluate them using a factor that can be set. If you select a row of the table, only the amount in this row is to be revaluated. If you do not select any rows, all values are to be revaluated. The planning application is to look roughly as follows on execution:
This example serves in particular to clarify the interaction between a planning function and an Analysis Web item. Special properties here are:
●      Variable handling in the planning function
●      Row selection in the Analysis Web item
Prerequisites
In the planning modeler, you have created an aggregation level that contains the following InfoObjects: unit Currency Key, time characteristics Quarter and Calendar Year, key figure Amount, characteristics Version, Account Number, Cost Center.
The planning function and the query are to use the same data of this aggregation level.
Procedure
Planning Modeler: Creating Planning Functions, Variables, and Filters
       1.      Choose the Planning Functions tab page and create a planning function of the type Revaluate with technical name REVALUATE and description Revaluate for your aggregation level.
       2.      On the To the Parameters tab page, use the input help for the revaluation factor to create the REVAL_FACTOR variable with the Revaluation Factor description. The variable is to be specified in detail as follows: The variable is to be a required variable and is to be input ready; it is to be of type Number, but is not to contain a standard default value.
       3.      Choose the Filter tab page and create a filter with technical name ACCOUNT_FILT and description Revaluation Selection for your aggregation level.
Select the characteristics one after another and choose the input help icon in the column after Characteristic Restrictions. The dialog box for specifying characteristic restriction appears. Specify the required restrictions (in our example, Version = VERSION 1, Quarter = QUARTER 1, Calendar Year = 2007; Cost Center = 100002, Currency = Euro; for Account Number, all values are taken over), choose Add, and save the selections by clicking OK.
Choose Show Extended Settings and ensure that the Version characteristic cannot be changed on execution. (It must be possible to change the Amount key figure).
More information about creating planning functions, variables, and filters: Modeling Planning Scenarios
BEx Query Designer: Creating Queries
       1.      In the BEx Query Designer, create a query Revaluate (technical name: QUERY_REVALUATION) for your aggregation level.
       2.      Drag and drop the ACCOUNT_FILT filter into the Characteristic Restrictions area for filter values. In doing so, all characteristics are restricted to single values.
Drag and drop the Account Number characteristic into the area for default values.
       3.      Specify that the Account Number characteristic is in the rows. The values for this come from the master data.
Specify that the Amount key figure is in the columns. The values for this can be changed; on the Planning tab page, choose the Data Can be Changed Using User Input or Planning Functions option.
       4.      Save your query definition.
BEx Web Application Designer: Creating Web Templates
       1.      In the BEx Web Application Designer, create a Web template with technical name REVALUATION.
       2.      Create the following data providers:
○       DP_PLAN_DATA of the type Query View Data Provider, based on query QUERY_REVALUATION
○       DP_FILT_REVALUATION_FUNCTION of the type Filter. The data binding should come from the ACCOUNT_FILT filter.
       3.      Create the following Web items:
○       INPUT_FIELD_REVALUATION_FACTOR. Specify 10 as the default value (Internal Display ® Text: 10).
○       BUTTON_GROUP_ REVALUATION. Using Internal Display, create pushbutton1 with label Revaluation and, as Action, use the command wizard to assign the following commands (INSTRUCTION):
Table of Commands
Command
Parameters
Data provider-specific command: SET_SELECTION_STATE BY BINDING (Set Filter Values According to Different Sources)
●      Command target: target data provider DP_FILT_REVALUATION_FUNCTION
●      Data binding: selection binding using the Account Number (ZD_ACCNT) characteristic, where the value of the Web Item Selection binding type is to come from the ANALYSIS_ITEM_1 Web item, characteristic Account Number (ZD_ACCNT).
Planning-specific command EXEC_PLANNING_FUNCTION_SIMPLE (Execute Planning Function )
●      Data binding: Reference to data providers of type Filter DP_FILT_REVALUATE_FUNCTION, where the value from variable REVAL_FACTOR of connection type Web Item with Manual Input (ITEM_INPUT) is to come from INPUT_FIELD_REVALUATION_FACTOR.
●      Command-specific parameter: planning function REVALUATE
○       ANALYSIS_ITEM_1. Data provider DP_PLAN_DATA is assigned to the analysis grid as the (source) data provider.
Choose Behavior ® Row Selection ® Multiple (MULTIPLE).
In this case, it must be possible to select multiple rows and to execute the revaluation command on all selected rows. It is not therefore possible to give the command along with the row selection; the command must instead be given using pushbuttons.
       4.      Create a CONTAINER_LAYOUT_ITEM_1 (Web Items ® Enhanced ® Container).
Divide the container into columns, choose the With Tray display option, and enter label Revaluation under Tray Settings.
Add the following Web items to the container:
○       1st row, 1st column: INPUT_FIELD_REVALUATION_FACTOR
1st row, 2nd column BUTTON_GROUP_ REVALUATION
○       2nd row, 1st column (with option Colspan=2, that is, with a merge of columns 1 and 2): ANALYSIS_ITEM_1
The following figure illustrates the layout of the REVALUATION Web template:
Execution on the Web
       1.      Execute the Web template on the Web.
       2.      For testing, extend the URL to include parameter &debug=X.
If you have set this parameter, the selection is shown in the Executing Planning Function section.
       3.      Enter amounts for one or more account numbers, change the revaluation factor if necessary (default value = 10), select the required rows, and choose Revaluation.
For example, enter amount 100 in the first row, retain revaluation factor 10, and choose Revaluation. The query outputs an amount of 110 in both the selected row as well as in the overall result (as long as you have not entered any other values).

Problems with Input Ready Query

Hello All,
I'm facing problems with input ready query for BI IP.
I've created the input query on aggregation level and maintianed all the planning settings. It is not allowing me to edit, when i'm attaching in the web template.
I also attached a button copy function, and i'm able to execute it and save it, but it not allowing me to change manually.
I also enabled the 3rd option for keyfigures...data can be changed with planning functions and user input.
Please help me in this regard.
We have just started the development of BI-IP, please suggest me if there are any notes to be applied.
Regards
Kumar

Hello Johannes,
Yes I've set to the finest granularity...even if it is Only one characteristic and one key figure without any restrictions...
I've checked even planning tab page under properties...it is also fine..
But still it is not allaowing me to go to edit mode...this is a fresh instalation and the query i'm working is the first one...
Please suggest me if there are any notes to be applied, we are on Support Pack 10.

How to calculate and save planning data in bex input-ready query using keyfigures for calculation from different infoproviders

Hi Dear All,
We have two real time infocubes and two aggregation levels based on these cubes in one multiprovider
first cube1 is like
char1| char2| keyfig_coefficient(single value for each combination of char1 and char2)
same aggregation level1
(we have input query to fill coefficients by one responsible user)
second cube2 is like
char1| char2| keyfig_quantity| keyfig_result
same aggregation level2
Input ready query should be like (for all other users of different org units)
char1|char2|keyfig_coeff| keyfig_quant(for input) | keyfig_result = keyfig_coeff*keyfig_quant(calculated value, should be saved to cube2)
And we don't have pregenerated lines in cube2, users have to add new lines themselves by wad.
Question is, what is the optimal (easiest) way to make calculation and save result data to cube2 where keyfigures for calculation should be used from different infoproviders. I need just a hint.
Appreciate any help.
Nadya.

I found decision, agregation levels sould be based on multiprovider, not included.

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.

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.
Best Regards,
Fuyang

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.

*****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.

Adding new rows in the input-ready query

Hello everybody!
Could you please advise what setting should be done in the ready for input query to make it possible to add rows in it.
I succeeded in creating input ready queries where it is possible to modify key figure value for the existing records, but I haven't succeeded yet in creating query with input-ready rows.
Thank you in advance,
Kind regrds,
Maria Kazakova

Hi Gregor!
Thank you.
Of course before posting a question, I've read this help topic attentively.
I created Aggregation level ZPPLAN with characteristics:
     Version
     Cal. Year/Quarter
     Currency
Key figure:
     ZSUM_BDG
Query ZPRQUERY3 is based on aggregation level ZPPLAN
Query settings:
Rows:
     Version
     Cal. Year/Quarter
     Currency
Key figure:
     ZSUM_BDG
in the key figure properties, tab Planning option "Data can be changed using user entries or planning functions" is selected.
Execution of the query returns the table with input-ready cell and <u><b>empty new rows doesn't present</b></u>.
so could you please advise what else settings should be done for query, to make input ready rows available in the query? so as to make it possible to enter new records in the input ready query?
Following settings are done for the Analysis Grid properties:
tab "General":
- Display sort icons
- Apply formatting
- Allow navigation
- autofit
- Display hierarchi icons
Tab "Clipping":
Full size for horisontal and vertical.
Sorry for so long quetion,
I would be grateful for an answer,
Kind regrds,
