Issue in F4 help in variable screen of the report

Hi All,
I am facing an issue with Bex query, there are two navigational attributes in query, those are NAV1 and NAV2 and we have created two variable for these attributes,
When we run the query in analyzer and in the variable screen we are trying to select values for these attributes from F4 help, we are able to see both the values in each attribute.
For example NAV 1 has 100 vlues and NAV2 has 100 values, when we click on F4 help on the NAV1 attribute in variable screen we are able to see 200 entries, means it's including NAV2 values, it is vise-versa for the NAV2 attribute also.
I ran the same report in RSRT and click on F4 help for NAV1 and NAV2 attributes, here entris are fine,each attribute showing only 100 entries.
What could be reason for this issue.
Could you please adivce me how to solve this.
Thanks in advance,
Venkat Kalla

Hi,
Please check Note 1495735 - 'check of changed records between DB and BIA after changerun'.
If BIA is in use then this can be the cause.
Otherwise check Note 1517248 - 'F4 help uses M mode instead of D mode for line item characteristic'.
Finally, verify the read modes for both InfoObjects:

Variable screen performance in report

In my project we are having somany master data objects,
we have to find the performance of selection screen ,earlier we have only display as selection screen as key now according to our client requirment we are providing both key and text in sleection screen with long text , how can i find these master data objects performance in variable screen.
The SAP std out of the box setting for an Infoobject is usually the key.( Sometimes text )
We are now making changes to almost all info objects to display as key and text, and depending on what business is asking we are changing to Long text, medium or short.
Investigation required
1)       how does it affect the performance when we do F4 help
2)       how does it help in search by text
3)       what difference does it make when searching by key vs text.
My feel is if we show the key and text , definitely the key comes from Dimension table and the text will be fetched from the text table of the master data attribute
And hence for business partner etc it might really affect the time taken to fetch the variable values.
please help how to find the performance of variables.

Yeah, It won't have much impact on the performance of the selection screen.......
Even we are displaying both key and text for many reports but never faced a performance issue.......

Skipping of the variable screen in Web report

Hi,
I have created my queries in Bex. When I run the reports from my favorites in the SAP GUI, the reports are displayed directly without bringing up the variable screen in the web browser.
Currently on BI7. Any ideas how to fix the issue.
Thanks
Demetrius

Queries in Web are run using the default web template (which is generally 0analysis_pattern) - you can check the default WT for your system in tcode SPRO. In the properties of the web template, you have an option 'Display Variable Screen' - you can turn it on. As such, I think your query has no 'mandatory' variables, otherwise the var entry screen should have appeared.
You might want to search for some threads on 0analysis_pattern to get some more info about it.

Need a Syatem variable for Executing the report by RFC.

Hi Experts,
Need a Syatem variable for Executing the report by RFC.
what i mean to say is,i can execure the report directly ...then no issues.
But if i execute the Report by RFC ,then i should put a condition with system variable...
Please suggest me ,how can put a condition when i am executing the report through RFC.
Thanks
Babu

Hello Friend,
what I understood that you want to put some extra condition if that report is getting called from RFC...
you can use the system variable SY-CPROG....it will hold the value of the report when it is geeting executing directly...
but when it is getting executed therough RFC...it will hold that RFC name...
Thanks

How to display the sort value in the selection screen in the report title

Dear All,
How to display the sort value in the selection screen in the report title? I have selected a value in the selection screen for sorting , but i need that values by which i have sorted with in the report title. Can you please throw some light on this!!
Good day,
Thanks and regards
Arun S

Hi Arun,
Try this.
1, Set one dynamic parameter,
2, Drag and drop that parameter into your report title.
3, Pass the value(sort value) dynamically from your application,
4, Cheers..
Other wise Try with Dataset, create a dataset and fill thev alue into that.. Then set the data source from CR designer. and darg and drop that data column into the report.
Hope this will work,
Regards,
Salah

Here you are looking to have report prompt and report on the same page which is not possible.
If you still want to achieve this ..then create a report with all columns say reprot1 and report2 your prompts.
Go to dashboard ...add ...report2 prompts on the above...report2 with all columns 1 down...
Now when you see .....report prompts on top and report on down....now when you select some prompt it will take you to the new page....
Use guided navigation.

F4 input help on Variable screen is not working on Portal

Dear Experts,
We are facing one issue when we run the WAD report on portal, variable screen gets hang after clicking on input help button (F4) for couple of variables. We are facing same issues when we run the base queries on portal. But when we run the same base queries in RSRT (Tcode) or in BEx Analyzer we are not facing this issue and able to get the input help screen with values.
I also have gone through some old posts related to such issues but didn't help much. We are already on SAP BW 7.4 SP Level 008 and for Char IO Query Filter Value setting is kept as "Values in Master Data Table" only. This is a MD IO with Compounding.
Kindly let me know if anyone has faced such issue.
Thanks in Advance,
Nilesh

Dear Martin,
There is a no long running work process in the backend and data volume is more in Master Data Table, there are around 19 Lacks records available.
For BI Java patch and defaultTrace for errors I will check it with BASIS Admin team. Unfortunately I don’t have rights to do same.
Thanks,
Nilesh

F4 Input Help in Variable Screen takes about 30 Minutes to display.

Hello Experts,
We have a web-report in which the time taken to display all the entries in F4 Input Help of the variable screen takes about 30 minutes. Have anyone experienced so long a wait time while accessing F4 Input Help in the variable screen and is there anything that we can do to reduce this wait time.
Thanks
Arvind

For BEx Web 7.0 make sure you have the attributes suppressed in help with the instructions from note below:
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1144979
Also apply the optimizations provided in the notes below:
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1374724
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1379804

Also you could try changing the read mode of the F4 help depending on the size of the cube and MD tables.

Input help in variable screen

Hi,
I'm having a query on top of 0EMPLOYEE. 0EMPLOYEE has an attribute of a business unit (which has the default BEx settings of display as text) and I have a selection option variable on top of this attribute.
Previously, on BW 3.x the variable screen used to show both the key and text, regardless of the settings in the BEx tab of the infoobject definition. in BEx Web JAVA it will only let me have the text selection. is it possible to change that without changing the default settings in the BEx tab of the infoobject definition?

F4 Help in Variable Screen during Query Execution

Hi All,
We are executing queries through WAD. The F4 help in the variable screen during query execution is taking a lot of time.
SAP note 661251 suggests changing the F4 mode to M. We need to change the booked value parameter.
I looked into the standard WAD web template but i'm not seeing any options/ooked value parameter.
Please suggest where I need to go to change the parameter. Thanks.
Regards,
Vivek

Not much experience in WAD but I think there should be a query in BEx Query Designer.
There you can choose that characteristics which takes time. Select "Advanced" tab from right hand side.
Under "Filter Value Selection During Query Execution" you will get 4 options.
BTW if you have a query on DSO then creating index ( secondary) on the affected characteristics would also resolve your problem

Help with variable screen

Hi ,
I have some problem at the variable screen. When I click the possible entries for 0calmonth in the query selection screen and I could not able to see the possible entries. The screen comes blank. When I check for 0calday and ocalweek i get the possible entries.
I have checked the data inside the infoprovider and the data is available in it. I have tried activating the 0calmonth again. I have tried all the possible options. Please help as it is very urgent.
Regards
Raghu

Hi,
Probably for the selections given while entering the query, the 0calmonth might not have been present.
Check in the infoprovider with the same selection parameters you are initialling giving while running the query and c whether the calmonth is there or not?
Also once check infoprovder whether the 0calmonth is updating r not

Force Variable screen even the second time

Hi guru's,
I want to know how to force the variable screen in Web Analyzer each time the user open the query.
I already set up the correct option to force the variable screen in my web template , but this option is Ok for the queries wich don't have mandatory vairable.
My case is i open a report then put variables values and execute it. i open another report, and then i want to open again the first report. in this case the system does not ask me to put variables values. it execute with my old selections.
i can change it in filter of my web page but i want to have access at the variable screen.
Thanks for help
Cyril

Hi Cyril,
1. Create a Web Template,place an Analysis item and assign the query which contains variable(either mandatory or normal variable)
2.In the Properties of Analysis item->Select Web Template from the drop down->Behavior->Display Variable checkbox->make it as On(By default this will be Off)
3.Save the template and open it in Web Analyzer.
Now always it will prompt for a variable even if you open other template and come back,open this template.

Variable screen in Web report

Dear all,
I have a small BEx question. In my report, I restrict by using variable ZCREATOR which contains business partner number. Heres the problem, in my variable screen, even though I set the display TEXT or LONG TEXT it only shows me description of the short text. E.g if fullname is JOHN DOW, it only shows DOW
But once the report is generated out, LONG TEXT will of cause show JOHN DOW whereas if SHORT TEXT will just show DOW.
Answer I need would be, how can I set in my variable screen to show JOHN DOW instead of DOW?


Hi 
Go to the InfoObject definition and check details in the tab Business Explorer. General Settings --> Display and BEx Description, are they both selected as Long Texts?
 
Hope it helps. 
Cheers Abhijit

How to hide some variables on variables screen in web report (in WAD)

I need to hide some optional variables (not all of them) on variables screen in web template.
Hiding the whole selection screen is not an option, since users have to populate other variables and some variables are mandatory.
Web template is based on a query that can be run in BEx Analyzer by superusers - and there they need all variables. I want to use the same query both in BEx Analyzer for superusers and on the Portal for regular users. For portal version though I need to hide some of the variables on the selection screen. Is it possible at all?
I would like to avoid creating two separate queries - one for Analyzer and one for Portal.

if the variables are optional and mandatory both avaialble
then there is no chance that u can hide them
the only option is to create a save as QUERY and remove those variable.
it is not possible to just hide the variable screen...
if u hv used they will be displayed....
if u dont want it dont use it...
and if really using another query is not advisable as u said
the only thing i can say is that... try to interact with ur security person
ask him u need to create several authorization objects for several variables
if that is possible
let him create those
assign those specific authorization object to specific user id
use it for specific variables u need
tat way super users with specaial authorization can acess the same query and can see specific variables
regular users withouts authorization of variables can see rest of variables.
