Is it possible to chose hierarchy-node in Transformation in SAP BW

Hi there.
Is it possible to chose hierarchy-node in Transformation in SAP BW.
To calculate keyfigures and/or characteristics.
We are in 7.0.
Best Regards
Ingrid

Hi,
It can be possible if you go with routine...
While updating the data from source to target (here you can lookup the Hierarchy table with transaction data(source) then Based on the hierarchy Node Id you can stamp the hierarchy value in the transaction ).
I don't have system to give sample code but it can be achievable with ABAP help....

Issue with hierarchy node variable and multiple SAP hierarchies

Hello experts,
We are currently facing an issue when using two SAP hierarchies in Web Intelligence and one of them is restricted with a hierarchy node variable.
The systems we use are a SAP BI 7.01 (SPS 05) and a Business Objects Enterprise XI R3.1 SP2 (fix pack 2.3). I want also to point out that the fix pack 2.3 has been applied to all BOE related components: the SAP integration Kit, client tools, and enterprise (server and client).
The universe used in our scenario is based on a BEX Query with two hierarchies (non-time dependent hierarchies, intervals allowed) loaded on their corresponding characteristics. One of these characteristics is restricted with a hierarchy node variable (manual input, optional, ready for input, multiple single values allowed).
Prerequisites for replicating the problem:
1) When building the web intelligence query select several levels from both hierarchies (they have seven levels each) and the only amount of the InfoCube that the BEX query (that was used to create our universe) relies on.
2) In the hierarchy node variable prompt select a hierarchy node entry (not an actual InfoObject value that exists as transactional data in the InfoCube )
By executing the query built above, all characteristics are returned null (no value) and the key figure with value u201C0u201D. No error messages, no partial results warnings. Now if we go back to u201CEdit queryu201D and select levels of only one of any of the two hierarchies the query runs normally (by selecting the exact same value for the hierarchy node variable prompt).
Any ideas on the matter?

Giorgos

Hi,
Have you ever got a solution for this problem?

Different colors for hierarchy nodes in WEBI 4.0 (Possible or not)

Hi Everyone,
We have been listening a lot about the capability of Webi 4.0 in terms of Hierarchies from BW BEx Query. It works just fine like in BEx Analyzer, but is it possible to create formatted reports like we do in Crystal reports to display different colors for the hierarchy nodes. The reason for asking about this functionality is though Crystal Enterprise also inherits Hierarchical view from BEx Query we still won't be able to drill down in real time to do some interactive analysis.
Where as Webi 4.0 can allow us to do interactive analysis by allowing us to drill down on the hierarchies, but it would be great to show the Webi report with different colors for the hierarchy nodes along with the drill down functionality, to give users the best look and feel while working with these reports.
I am trying to achieve this functionality but I am not successful yet and running out of ideas. I am also not sure if this is possible or not. Can anyone throw some light or share there thoughts on this.
Any comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
SRV

Create a variable with:
=[Object].Depth
where [Object] has to be the one containing the BEx hierarchy.
This function will return the hierarchy level starting with 0 (zero).
You can use the value of the variable the in the formatting rules:
variable equal [hierarchy level]
to format all hierarchy nodes on the given level.

Is it possible to display lower nodes in a hierarchy without top nodes?

Hello:
I am working with the Query Builder in SAP BW 3.5. We enter date, profit center and responsible organization to get labor data and WBS hierarchy output. We would like to show all the data associated with the WBS hierarchy at level 3 and below level 3, such as level 4, while skipping level 1 and 2. Is there a way to restrict the output of the query somehow to do this? We were thinking of using the level attribute of the WBS to filter the output, but are unsure about how to do this. Should we try using VBA to filter the output? Or is there ABAP user exits to filter output? Or should we somehow tell SAP BW "Please only give me data where the WBS level attribute is greater than or equal to 3". Thank you for you help. I am somewhat of a query newbie. I've tried hierachy variables, but it seems you have to spell out which WBS value as opposed to having a condition on the level attribute...conditions seem to only apply to key figures such as rate..

I've tried to use hierarchy node variables, but it seems like you can't specify a attribute of the hierarchy such as level. So with the WBS hierarchy, if you create a hierarchy node variable, you specify the WBS value to select (If I understand this correctly). I wish I could instead specify "give me all the WBS nodes that happen to have the value of the level attribute greater or equal to 3. If I understand Juergens post, he is saying make security access so that only certain WBS levels can be returned in the query. I suppose we can try that, but that would then preclude getting the level 1 and 2 in the future if the authorization is global.

Hierarchy Node- Overall query result

Hi Gurus,
I have a query with hierarchy nodes. For example
Measure
overall result
Measure set 1
ASA
ACEI
Measure set 2
HF
AMI
In the above result the option I chose for node position is ABOVE and I get the overall result below Measure.
But i need the following result:
Measure
Measure set 1
ASA
ACEI
Measure set 2
HF
AMI
overall result
I get the desired query if my option is Node selection 'BELOW' but the result is different which is not how I wanted
Measure
ASA
ACEI
Measure set 1
HF
AMI
Measure set 2
overall result
The actual scenario has arrow marks shown upwards or downwards but hope the overall picture is clear.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Nikki

Hi Nikki,
I also have the same requirement. And i think this is how the output is going to be(ie. the overall result row at the top) when you use the option Node Position 'Above'. I don't think it is directly possible in BEx to have the Overall Result at the end with the option Node position 'Above'.

How to provide a list of Hierarchy-nodes for selections?

Hi specialists,
some of our users often want to use some hierarchy-node-values from one report as filter of a 2nd report.
For all non-hieararhy-values it is possible to do that using the clipboard.
But there seems not to be a way to do the same with hierarchy-nodes.
Is there any workaround to reach that target?
Btw: I'm talking about users using the BEx 3.5 Analyzer.

Hello,
was this problem resolved?
can you please temm me how you resolved this issue?
Actually I also am having similar requirements in the project.
Thank you.

Display of Hierarchy Nodes as Medium Text in Web Report

Hello everyone,
Does anybody know how to display the hierarchy nodes as medium text instead of short text (default) in web report?
I know it is possible to change the display setting directly (by right clicking on hierarchy node > properties) from the web report.
However, I would love to know if there is any other way to change the settings such as through Query designer or Hierarchy maintenance in SAP GUI so that users do not need to change the display settings every time they view the web report.
Your help is kindly appreciated.

Thank you Shabar for you quick reply.
What if a Hierarchy is created under an InfoObject? How can I change the Text view of each name of the Hierarchy nodes?
In Query Designer, I tried to change the Text View to Long but it only affects the text of the InfoObject but not the Hierarchy nodes.
I tried the 2nd suggestion too. I only can find the BEx description for the InfoObject but not the Hierarchy nodes.
It would be great if anyone could tell me how to do so.
Thanks in advance.

Hierarchy node Variable: F4 Help - Not showing Master data values

Hi,
We're having some problems trying to display the F4 help of a hierarchy node selection variable, to show the master data values so that it would look more complete for the users during report execution.
In the RSD1 setting for the info object, under 'Business Explorer' tab, the 'Query Execution Filter Val. Selectn' is set to 'Only Posted Values for Navigation'.
I thot that we could overwrite this setting at the Query Designer level, but it does not seem to work.
Even tho in the Query Designer, we have already specified the 'Filter Value Selection During Query Execution' to 'Values in Master Data Table', it does not seem to display the master data values.
There is no difference in the F4 values being displayed for the hier node variable, before and after the change in Query Designer.
Could anyone share some tips on other possible solutions to get a hier node selection variable's F4 help to show the master data values, without changing the RSD1 setting at the info object level please ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Femmie.

Hi,
Could you please share the steps you have taken to fix the problem?
We do have a similar problem and for some reason the newly added hierarchy node for 0Profit_ctr is not showing up in the variable selection screen F4 (input selection for query execution). However we can see this node when we display that hierarchy in RSA1. I did try applying the changes recommened by Jerome but unfortunately it didn't work.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Attaching document on hierarchy nodes

Hello,
I have problems with attaching documents on hierarchy nodes. I have created a hierarchy with only postable nodes. Now it is possible to attach documents on nodes, but here I don't see any practicable option for the users to attach the document on only a node, because when they select a node and want to attach a document, in the selection of the document is this node and all nodes and leafs beneath. So the document would be shown on all nodes beneath.
Is here a good option for the users to attach documents?
I also tried to disable the resolve of hierarchy nodes as described in note 627907. Now it is no problem to attach a document on a node, but in the query the document-links aren't shown any more.
Has anybody any experience with this?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Alex

Hi,
Have you set the "Display documents for masterdata/data" in Web Application Designer?
This is a setting you make on your Table-Item.

Hierarchy node not available in Query Designer

Hello Gurus,
I can find the hierarchy node variable in BW but it is not available in query designer. Does anyone know what might be the problem and a solution?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,
You said you "find the hierarchy node variable in BW but it is not available in query designer".
How did you find the hierarchy node variable in BW? From backend SAPGUI, you will only be able to see the variable in some internal tables like RSZGLOBV. Did you mean this?
For "it is not available in query designer", do you means that when you want to create a hierarchy node variable for this characteristic in Query Designer, you don't find this certain hierarchy node variable in the hierarchy node variable list?
Important thing to notice is that, flat value variables and hierarchy node variables are listed separately. Did you make sure that you have chose to list hierarchy node variables in Query Designer?

Patricia

Bex Analyzer 7.0, Filter on Hierarchy Node (Text Group)

Hi gurus,
I would be glad if anyone of you could help me with this issue.
I made an application with Bex Analyzer 7.0 which does following -> create certain combinations and copy it directly into PowerPoint as a picture. This works great, I can send you the code if you want to. I could even create a blog or wiki ...
My issue appears when I try to copy a value for hierarchy node into Filter in Bex. It is possible to write into Filter some value and the system sets a filter with this value, there is no doubt about it. But I wanted to filter on a whole hierarchy node. I'm not able to do this by copying the value into the line. With the context menu no problem.
Example 1:(works fine)
Characteristics    Filter:
0comp_code       1000
Example 2:(doesn't work)
Characteristics    Filter:
0comp_code       +Group1(Text Node)
I will appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you
Standa

PLEASE HELP....Hierarchy Node Variable

Hi All:
I have a BPS Hierarchy Node Variable based on the Profit Center Hierarchy that was created in BW. The problem is when I set this variable to a node...only one profit center in this node gets displayed. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here? I need to show data for all profit centers within this node.
Thank you very much.

Hi Jane,
planning is only possible for one single characteristic combination. If you want to plan data for profit centers you need to plan on a single one.
Using a hierachy in a planning level means: All profit center in the node are selected, filled into the buffer and can be planned in one step BUT every value must be exactly assigned to a single profit center.
When you open the layout, the first profit center of the hierachy node can be planned. You can switch to other profit centers by icons at the top of the layout. So there is always one "active" profit center in the header of the layout.

Authorisation in Hierarchy node variable type

Hi,
Is it possible to have a Hierrachy Node variable that is processed by Authorisations ?
Regards,
Saurabh Diwakar

https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BI/AuthorizationinSAPNWBI
Create BEX variable for authorization
1. Right click on the IO -> choose 'Restrict'
2. Choose 'Selection' = 'Single Value' and 'from Hierarchy' = 'flat list'
If a hierarchy exists, select the hierarchy for the IO
3. Go on the variables tab -> Right click -> 'New variable'
4. For a restriction without hierarchy, the type of variable is 'Characteristic Value' and if you have choose a hierarchy, the type of variable is 'Hierarchy node'
5. Select a variable name & a description
6. Choose 'Processing by': = 'Authorization' then check the characteristic and click 'next'
7. Choose the display area for the variable -> Variable represents: = 'Single Value' or 'Selection Option'
8. Choose if the variable entry is Optional or mandatory,
9. Don't select 'Ready for input' and 'Can be changed in query navigation
10. Next to the end
Hope this would help you ...
