Issue with Compounded infoobjects in BEx

Hey Everyone,
I have a small issue when running a report in BEx. I want to be able to run a report against different Profit Centers, and have all values on the same line. But, in some cases, I have the same Profit Center on different lines, because the Controlling Area is different (compounded with Profit Center).
Example:
Profit Center           Site            Value
1000-103                1000           $100
1000-103                1000           $200
I want to see:
Profit Center           Site            Value
1000-103                1000          $300
I have set Controlling Area to NO DISPLAY in the query properties, and it doesn't display it, but still puts the same Profit Center on two separate lines, because it's compounded and because it does actually have a different Controlling Area.
Is there anyway to not have the Controlling Area influence my result, and have the same Profit Center aggregated with the other, so they end up on the same line?
Thanks,
John

Hi ,
try this:
steps:
1. Remove the Profit center from your report .
2. Drag it again in rows where u want the profit center be.
When u r draging the profit center to rows "Controlling area" will also come along with it as that was compounded.
3. Drag "Controlling area" info-object to "Filter section" of query designer.
4. make the Display properties setting of "Profit Center " as "Standard text".
That will solve the problem .
Thanks

(Un-) Displaying Values of an COMPOUND InfoObjects in BEX

Hello,
I have a Mastadata InfoObject with one Attribute and
one Compound:
Masterdata - InfoObject:
IO_MASTER, with masterdata, CHAR(30)
Attribute:
IO_ATTRIBUTE, CHAR(29), ...
Compound:
IO_COMPOUND, CHAR(29), ...
...which means logical Primary Key is:
IO_MASTER, IO_COMPOUND
In BEX the Masterdata InfoObjects displays values with "/".
For Ex. as:
<IO_MASTER Value / IO_COMPOUND Values>
I want to Display only as:
<IO_MASTER Value>
How ?
Thank You
Martin Sautter

Hello,
for Your info:
Put the Compounded InfoObject IO_COMPOUND
into the rows or columns ( and mark it as undisplay)

Issue with compounding characteristics in the query

Hello guyz
I have an issue with 2 chars one compounding the other in the query. The 2 chars are : Action Type and Action Reason in HR. Action type is the compounding char. for action reason.
For example: we have
Action Type    Action Reason
01                        A1
01                        A2
02                        A1
02                        A2
Now I want to restrict a key figure based on specific action reasons and types. But when I pick AT: 01, AR: A1, it selects AT: 02, AR: A1. The reason why it does this is because, there are 2 A1s under action reason and it picks the one at the end (ie last record with value A1 in the table)
But my compounding works when i create variables for the same and have them as user entry variables.
My question: How do i pick specific action reasons for specific action types (for restricting key figures) in the above example?
Thanks.

Well.. thank you Ashish for your help so far.
Now, these Chars. are coming directly from a data source to the cube. From my previous example again, the thing that i dont understand is:
When i try restrict the KF with AR, on the left hand side of the pop up window i see:
       AR
[01, A1] --> Very good
[01, A2] --> Good
[02, A3[ --> OK
[02, A4] --> Bad
[02, A1] --> Very Bad
But, when i drag 'A1' (Very Good) to restrict on the KF on the right hand side of the window, I only get:
A1 (Very good), what i want to drag is [01, A1] --> very good.. action type value should come along with action reason.. right??
when i save the query, logout and log back in, I see:
A1 (Very Bad)
Question: Why dosen't Action type char come along with action reason on the right hand side.. its a compounding char right?? So it should determine what value action reason takes?
Any idea??

Issue with displaying text in BEx

Hi all,
We are facing an issue with displaying text in the query output.
We have a master data carrying charac ' 0MATERIAL'.When i do maintain master data ,I am able to see medium description in the output.
Now when i drag 0MATERIAL in bex designer and in properties set display to key and text(medium text), it shows me only the key and it shows some wierd text which is in no way related to the medium description ( that was shown under maintain master data)
can anyone pls tell me why i am not able to see the medium description when executing the query that too when the text is loaded.
Pls help
Regards,
Suchitra

But what i wouldlike to know is what about the master data which is present in 0MATERIAL now?
Nothing will happen to your data.
Its showing there ...dosent that mean its present and activated?
They are present n in active version.
If u change any records they will be in M version..by activating the data...u are converting it to A version.

Working with Compounding infobjects in BEx

The customer wants to be able to drill down on infoobject LOCATION (Madrid etc)
without the SUBDIVISION on Location(A111 etc). SUBDIVISION is a compounding object of LOCATION.
I will try to explain with an (dummy) example:
Current situation:
Country         Location             Headcount
SP                A111/Madrid           10
SP                A112/Barcelona        20
SP                A114/Madrid           4
Requested situation:
Country         Location             Headcount
SP                Madrid               14
SP                Barcelona            20
Is it possible to summarize the data on LOCATION without SUBDIVISION in BEX?Or do we have to add a new characteristic with a different key having only LOCATION?
Thanks
KT

Hello Pradeep,
I can remove the infoobject SUBDIVISION but i still have LOCATION with the values A111/Madrid etc.I only want "Madrid" to be displayed under LOCATION.
Thanks

Filter Web Template with URL Cmd: doesn't work with compound infoobject ?

Hello all,
I've to filter the query contained on a web template with URL command, but it doesn't work.
The web template contains only one query, and on the free chars I have 0PLANT.
I call the web template adding to the normal url the following command:
&FILTER_IOBJNM=0PLANT&FILTER_VALUE=33
where 33 is the code of the plant I want to filter.
The command is executed, I think, because the result is "NO APPLICABLE DATA FOUND". The fact is that when I execute this query on the Bex filtering 0PLANT by value 33 the data exists.
May be because 0PLANT on our system is in compound with 0SOURSYSTEM ? In this case, what's the value I can use as filter ?
Thank's in advance,
Max

Hi,
please see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/59/edfe395dd76846e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
especially:
If the variant with ending 'EXT' is selected, the fully compounded value has to be entered in the external format, for example, 24.12.2000.
If the ending 'EXT' is not used, the fully compounded value has to be entered in the internal format, for example, 20001224 for 24.12.2000.
and
In the internal display (see table below) you can easily determine the name of the characteristic and the filter value using the URL parameter &snippet_operations=%20 (see also Object Tag for the Properties of Web Templates). Call the Web application with this URL parameter. If you filter using the context menu, the parameters FILTER_IOBJNM and FILTER_VALUE are automatically added to the URL in the Web browser. You can then use the desired values with Command URLs in hyperlinks.

Issue with webi report on BEx query

Hi,
I have created a universe on top of Bex query. There is no issue in creating and exporting the universe. But when I try to create a webi report out that BEx query, I am not able to see the values. Say if I have a column called "Company" I am getting the value as "All Company" and so on. What will be the issue?
But when a report is generated out of BEx analyser they are able to see the values properly.
Same user credentials are used in both the places (Importing the query into universe, Connecting to BEx Analyser) .
Thanks & Regards,
Subbu S

Hi Subbu,
the universe will generate a L00 item and a L01 item. The L00 item shows the All member of the characteristic in the case of a flat list and the Top level nodes from a hierarchy. the L01 item should give you what you looking for.

Issue with Variable Personalisation in Bex Report

Hi Gurus,
I'm facing a typical problem with Variable presonalisation in the Report.
I've executed a BEX Report and filtered data on some characteristics and used SAVE AS Button on the Portal to save the resultset. When I'm trying to use the variants, again say after 2 or 3 days i couldn't find updated data for particular variants upon using the same variants rather its refelecting the old data. Further more when I execute the report and try filtering on the same criteria altogether, I'm able to see updated result set.
Is there any setting to be enabled when we personalise variants or variants are dependent on the data or the date on which they are created. Not sure why the reports are behaving this way. Or Do I need to create variants time and again.
Any pointers would be of great help.
Regard,
Yaseen

Hello,
In the BEx report, when you get the variable selection screen there input your selection and at the bottom you have the option of saving them as a variant.
Now in future when you run the report simply use this variant and execute the report. It should work fine.
Also remember date selection can be tricky. If you input todays date in the variant, it wil consider the same date in further references. So do a check on that too.

Shashank

Issue with Exclude Selection in Bex

Hi all,
 I have created a query to display the Top 10 Customers.
Here I have excluded all the customers apart from the Top 10 since they differ
based on different regions. There are 4 different regions and the customers differ
for all of them. Here the issue being I dont get the exact percentage of Orders and
Sales because of these excluded values. Here I cant use include selection since i
need different top 10 customers for the 4 regions.
 How to compute percentage with Exclude Selection? Could anybody help?
Points would be surely assigned.
Regards,
Sunitha.R

Dear Anil,
 I have my Orders, Sales, percentage calculations in columns and the excluded
Top 10 customers in rows. I get the individual percentage values for each customer.
My scenario being :
Orders 06 : Values computed with Calculate Result as Summation - Properties.
Orders 07 : Values computed with Calculate Result as Summation - Properties.
Orders % : Here I have given Calculated Result as Nothing - properties.
 I get the individual percentages say :
 Orders 06 Orders 07 Percentage
Customer 1 : 12.1 91.2 75.5
Customer 2 : 7.6 7.9 104.3

Overall Result: 19.7 99.1 Wrong Value
 Considering the above example, total percantage is computed wrongly. The excluded value's total is not considered at all. Can you now give me your suggestion?
Regards,
Sunitha.R

Issue with Compounded char in IP

Hi All,
I have 0PROFIT_CTR and 0CO_AREA is compounded char and I have created ZPROFIT_CTR which is copy of standard 0PROFIT_CTR, so info object ZPROFIT_CTR has 0C0_AREA as compounding attr.
From the source, I am getting the values for 0PROFIT_CTR and 0CO_AREA, and I am deriving the value for ZPROFIT_CTR with the same value of 0PROFIT_CTR using Exit char relationship.
When I execute the planning sequence, it is getting failed.
As 0CO_AREA is compounded to ZPROFIT_CTR, can anyway this is cause for the failure of planning sequence ?

what is the error message?

Issue with Decimal Notation in BEX.

HI BW Experts !!
Can any one help on this please.
Thanks a million in advance.
InfoCube: Equipment Barometer InfoCube (Technical Name: ZRLC_BAR)
Key Figure: Month to Date Income (Technical Name: ZRL_MTDIN)
If I execute the query with the Month/Year = 10.2004 and I compare it with the data in the infocube in the same period I'll see the following data:
Query=   611303.49   (correct amount)
InfoCube=6113034.92 (Wrong amount, is divided by 10)
Always the amounts in the query(BEX) is divided by 10.
If someone can help me i will appreciate.

Hi Marcos,
In Query edit mode, goto properties of key figure (right-click on the ZRL_MTDIN), and select 'Nothing Defined' for the scaling factor.
This should work.

Vikrant.

Data load issue with Master infoobject

Hi Sdns,
I have master infoobject and it has a list of time independent attributes. I have successfully loaded the dato to this master infoobject.This master infoobject is being used as a attribute in some infoobjects and as a infoobject in infocubes and DSO's.
Now the requirement is changed and few attributes of the master infoobject become time dependent.when i have tried to delete the data in the master info object, some amount data i have deleted and am unable to delete remaining data.
is it necessary to delete the data from all the infoproviders before deleting the data from master infoobject when the change is happened in its attributes.
Advance thanks
karunakar

I guess no need to delete the master data for this change! ... if you want to uncheck the time dependent we must delete data
But you can tick time dependent for the MD obj. and activate it... it will tell you for the deletion of data is necessary or not
After this action you will see Date to and Date from in the transformations.. you can map them and do the load. .. it will overwrite the master data object

Issue with Decimal Values in Bex Reporting

hello gurus,
I have extracted data from 2LIS_13_VDITM. In the ODS when I look at the Active data, column Billing Qty Sls Units - it shows "13,190 " and the Sales Unit is "KM".
ITEM   SALES UNIT Billing Qty :Sales Unit
10       KM          13,190
20       KM           0,500
In R3 table VBRK also it stores in the above format.
But while reporting it rounds of the data as 13,000 and 1,000.
How can i get the actuals, in reporting also.
Pls advise. thanks in advance.

Hi Eugene -Scaling it to 1 did not help.
Hi Roberto -> I had a look at the entries in T006 for KM (kilometers)and M(meters). this is what i got.
[Int. meas. unit] [Decimal.pl.rnd.] [Decimal places]
KM            |       0       |            0
M             |       2       |            0
And in SPRO in Src System and BW Sytem there is no mention of KM and meters.

Problem with compound objects in IP input-ready queries

Hi, gurus!
I have following problem:
In IP input-ready query I have 2 restricted key figures (KF1 and KF2):
KF1 restrictions:
      Char1 = X1
      Char2 = 100
KF2 restrictions:
      Char1 = X2
      Char2 = 100
Char2 is compound with Char1, so KF1 should be restricted as Char2 = X1/100.
That query in example doesn't work, all cells are grey. But, If I'll change restriction of Char2 in any key figures everything will be fine. It looks like the system ignores Char1 restriction. E.g.
KF1 restrictions:
      Char1 = X1
      Char2 = 101
KF2 restrictions:
      Char1 = X2
      Char2 = 100
(Ok)
I think it is some kind of system error, but can't find the related Nota. Maybe somebody already solved the same problem?
Edited by: Mikhail Sychev on Jun 28, 2011 8:54 AM

Hi Mikhail,
This is typical issue with compounded infoobjects.
I can think about 2 solutions.
1) Create a hierarchy on the compounded infoobject and restrict the KFs by hierarchy nodes rather than direct filter values on the infoobject.
2) If not, create an nav attribute on the compunded infoobject, in which you have to concatenate values of both the character values like 'X1100'. You this navigational attribute in the keyfigure filter.
Thanks,
Krishnan

Re : Issue with the column display in Bex reports

Hello Gurus,
I have an issue with the reports in Bex, this is a bit confusing scenario I would try to explain in more details. A query was already built for monthly Report in Sales and Billing for which the variable were Calender month/year range 1 (mandatory), range 2 range 3 range 4. These 4 variable were created and moved to column rows in query.
Later the user wanted the copy of same report but he wanted the variables to be Calender date range 1 (mandatory), range 2, range 3 , range 4. I have created them with 0calenderday as reference and moved to the columns.
for the monthly report text variables were already existing for the Calender month/ year, but for the daily report text variable were not existing for Dates. I have created a text variable for the date in the following way processing by
" replacement path" and reference characteristic as 0calday and in the replacement path tab.. in replace variable the selection is info object, the next option Replace with " External charactersitic value key " .
By creating this text variable the dates were being displayed in the colum header like 11/01/2013 - 11/30/2013 which satisfies the requirement.
But the user wanted to see the report same like monthly report when the mandatory variable Calender year/ month is selected, the rest of the columns range 2, range 3, range 4 are displayed as unassigned in the report. but coming back to the daily report when the user is giving the Calender date rage 1, he is finding that Calender date range 2, range 3, range 4 are also being displayed with values. He want to see the Calender date range 2,3,4 as unassigned in the report just like monthly. Please find the images attached.
As Calender month/ year is predefined, if the calender range values are not given it would show up as not assigned default. I have created a separate text variable for Calender day, I believe that could be the reason rest of the columns are not showing up as unassigned. The user want to see them as unassigned like monthly report columns.
I tried different ways changing the text variables but I could not change the display of the columns in Calender date report by the option - replace with ----> External characteristic value key, key, label. when I chose the option external characteristic value then the date was showing up in the text of the column when report is run ( Please find the image for the reference in the attachment ). . I request you to help me out in this. Please find the images of the variables and output below.

Anshu,
Thank you very much for above code I made minor changes to the code that finally worked. I created 4 different text variables needed for Calender date range 1, 2 ,3 ,4. Please find the code below for the text variable that worked in the system
WHEN 'ZTEXT_CAL1'.
   READ TABLE I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO loc_var_range
   WITH KEY VNAM = 'ZCALDATE1'.
    IF loc_var_range-LOW = '#'.
      dt_low = 'Not Assigned'.
      dt_high = 'Not Assigned'.
      CONCATENATE dt_low '-' dt_high INTO l_s_range-low.
    ELSE.
      CONCATENATE loc_var_range-low+4(2) '/' loc_var_range-low+6(2) '/' loc_var_range-low+0(4) into dt_low.
      CONCATENATE loc_var_range-high+4(2) '/' loc_var_range-high+6(2) '/' loc_var_range-high+0(4) into dt_high.
      CONCATENATE dt_low '-' dt_high INTO l_s_range-low.
    ENDIF.
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'EQ'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
