Key figures are of date type

Hi,
I am working with a standard business content IC that has the key figure InfoObjects defined as type date. When I double click on the InfoObject to review the detail from tab 'Type/unit', I see that it is defined with the radio button 'Date', but the 'Data type' is 'DEC - Counter or amount field with comma and sign'. When I loaded the data to this IO, I would get a 732,163 for the value, for example.
Has anyone come across this issue before? Can I change the standrad IC to have these in the Time characteristics instead of the Key Figures? I am expecting a date value, what should I do?
Thanks

Hello ,
       This actually depends on ur requirment. if you want some calculation like processing time,difference.. etc.. with this Date infoObject then u have to use the Key Fig InfoObject.
      The difference between DAT and DEC is that in DEC..if the date is 13/04/2007 then it will give u number of days from 1.1.0001 that means somthing around 732,688 (current day of month =13 + April = 120 days+2007*365).
     and your DAT will take exactly with it recives yyyymmdd (20070413)

Some key figure are not update for movement type 101

Dear All,
I have done load for Inventory and now i am finding that for some material the with movement type 101 the key figures are not getting populated, for these materials the values in characteristics is getting populated fine.
I have loaded the data according to stranded procedure in "How to Load...."
I have checked the values of material in R3 and it is there.
Example of the record::
Material    Plant Movement type Calender Day    quanity Base Unit
10101      01       350                     01.02.2006     20             KG
10101        01       101                     05.07.2006                      KG
10101         01      101                      10.07.2006                      KG
The Quantity is not appearing in second and third record.

Hi,
Please check whether you have set ''Rule groups'' at transfermation level . There you can set the conditions like materials having movement type X can be updated to one Key Figure and material having movement type Y can be updated to another Key figure.
Please check whether you have set this option at transfermation level.
For example, may be in your case materials from different plants are updating to different key figure.
Thanks,

Key Figures in Joined Data Source

Hello,
I have created some Key Figures for the Data Source "Sales Order Item". Reports based on this Data Source are working fine and also my Key Figures are displaying the right results.
Now I want to create a Joined Data Source (Left Outer Join) with the Sales Order Item and Outbound Delivery Detail Line Items. The problem I have here is, that my own Key Figures based on Sales Order Item are not showing up in the list and I cannot select them.
Does anyone know why? Do I have to create the same Key Figures again and again as soon as I want to join the Sales Order Item Data Source with any other Data Source?
Thanks for any feedback.

Key figure are not available in joining Data Sources, Characteristics of same type from different Data Source data element available in joining scenario.

Some key figures are not being correctly reversed in the Change Log

Hi Experts,
I'm working with the BI 7 (SP 15) and I have created an ODS with Overwrite option (Record Mode equal to ' ') and a Cube receiving data from this ODS.
Whenever I have a change in one existing record in R/3 side (already previously loaded to BW), it comes perfectly to the ODS and overwrite the record in the Active Data. However, in the change log table, the before image record is not reversing all the key figures, there is one (Quant type) which is not working and it is being doubled in the cube. All the other key figures are Amount type and are working fine. PLease see below some examples of the Change Log behavior:
First time the record comes - Change log content:
Material   Valid Dt   Cost Value      Quantity Rec. Mode      Req. ID
1234     May/01   $ 100.00       10          'N'     1
Second time when the record changes the Date:
Material     Date      Cost Value      Quantity Rec. Mode      Req. 1234     May/29   $ 100.00       10          ' '     2
1234     May/01   $ -100.00       10          'X'     2
Then the final result in the cube, after it is compressed, is:
Material     Date      Cost Value      Quantity
1234     May/29   $ 100.00       20
Also, I have a Counter in the transformation to the Cube which is a constant equal to 1, it is also being aggregated erroneously. I could create a routine to check the record mode coming, but I'm not sure it is the best solution.
Can anybody help me to figure this out, please?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Rajkumar,
Actually it is a generic extractor (customized) and the ODS active data is getting the delta records correctly. After I extract from R/3 and activate the ODS, the active table has correct results, but the change log table has the problem described before. All the fields comes from one single extractor.
The 0RECORDMODE that I mentioned is about the setting in the transformation to the ODS. You have the Technical rule group where you can set the 0RECORDMODE, in my case it is set to ' ' (blank) which means it will receive After-Images from the extractor (which I think is correct in my case). The most curious is that it is working for almost all key figures (all amount type), except for the Price Unit which is Quantity type.
Any other ideas?
Thanks.

Restricted key figure not populating data

Hi Guru's,
I am facing problem with restricted keyfigure. I have restricted amount with cal year which is not populating data.
This key figure is having data in provider.
Could you let me know how to overcome this .
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Vijay.

Hi,
The quesry is on Multiprovider? or infoset? it matters first..... or directly on cube? check it and apply relevent infoprovider properties for logic check.
Check the global filters are there any infoprovider restrications etc...
And also while checking the datafor the KF in infoprovide " use ALL the restrictions that are in query and impact the data"
also try removing the restiction and look for data...
Hope this helps.'

Key figure in Master data

Hello
I have a key figure defined in the master data info object.
Now the values of the key figure are not getting updated in the info object after running the DTP.any suggestions as to why this could be happening.
One thing i noticed is that the length of the key figure is 9 digits and in the source field it is 15 digits. Does that make a difference at all.

Hi,
Even you can maintain key figure as an attribute for master data, it wont be a problme. Define your keyfigure as an attribute for master data info object and load the master data again.
Regarding the length of the field between source and BW, it should get atleast 9 digits (I guesss).

Maintain key figure in master data attribute

Hidden Key figures are not being displayed after unhiding

We've applied SP 14 - SP 22 in our 3.1C BW system. Prior to the patches going in, users were able to unhide hidden key figures through the Change Query local view and view them in the report once the query was executed. After the patches were applied, even though the key figures
were unhiden through the change query local view, they are not returned in the report after executing the
query.
As anyone run across this after appling this patch level ?

SIS some key figures are displaying zero value

Dear all
Following Key Figures in Standard SIS tcode like MCTE, MCTA, etc. are displaying as zero
Incoming Return
Credit Memo
Credit memos qty
Returns items
Returns Quantity
MC+6 is displaying all the key Figures as zero.
What may be the reasons
Regards
Vipin

Dear Babubala
In MC26 I am getting below warning for Incom. Returns, Gross returns, Net Returns 1, Net Returns 2, Returns items, Returns Qty
Incom. returns: Updating with date field VDATU can be set up restrictively only
Message no. M!208
Diagnosis
While updating the key figure Incom. returns the data field MCVBAP-VDATU for the period determination is used.
Updating via MCVBAP-VDATU causes a different result online as for statistic data set up. Online, MCVBAP-VDATU is filled with the current date (SY-DATLO); during set up, however, it is filled with the creation date MCVBAP-ERDAT of the item.
By using VDATU document changes you can see in the statistics that this type of 'delta updating' cannot be reproduced by a statistic data set-up. During the set-up the data is updated in different periods as in online updating, thereby causing the change history to be lost.
Procedure
Be certain that this is the type of updating you want.
In MC26 the Credit Memo Update Setting is VD Billing document and Type of Updating is A Cumulative updating
while as in Credit memo pricing procedure there is no subtotal. How to maintain it in Pricing procedure and in MC26 because in MC26 after pressing the change button the system is displaying the following message "Maintenance of SAP standard updates not allowed"

Virtual Key Figures- RSRT says Key Figures are not valid

Hi,
Getting the following mssg when I try to generate a query in RSRT for the first time after I have coded Virtual Key Figures.
For the characteristic that I am pulling the user entered data from:
/BIC/ZNEWEST is not a valid characteristic for InfoProvider 0QM_C08
Message no. BRAIN122

"Customer enhancement RSR00002 or the implementation of BAdI RSR_OLAB_BADI delivers /BIC/ZNEWEST as the characteristic to be calculated. 1. is however not a valid key figure for Infoprovider 0QM_C08.
System response
/BIC/ZNEWEST is ignored.
Procedure

Key figures are not available when i performing LBWE action

Hi gurus,
I am trying to load 2lis_02_hdr, 2lis_02_itm and 2lis_02_scl to infocube 0pur_c04.
But whatever the key figures available in the cube its not appear in the R/3 side data Source.. but those keyfigures are available in LIS structure.. for that how can i bring those key figures to dataSource for using LO Cockpit..
I heard we need to perform some prerequistes in SBIW.. let me know in breif with step by step..
Full points will assign to all those reply my query early..
Please let me know if not understand my query..
Thanks in Advance

Hello Sudheer
2LIS_02_HDR, ITM and SCL do not take data from S011 but directly from transactionnal tables like EBEP, EBKO, EBPO (names quoted from memory).
So you have to look for the key figures from those tables and not the one in S011.
Historically, the three datasource were built to replace 2LIS_02_S011 but the calculations to rebuild the keyfigures were delivered in BW in an old BCT that made the conversions. The logic and modeling have changed completely.
If you really need to transfer S011 to BW without remodelling the data, you may want to use a generic extractor based on S011 (provided you have a delta key available).
Otherwise, in SBIW, Options for datasource specific to the application, Logistics, purchasing, you have two customizing transactions. you have to define branch and process key to load data into BW. But that will not have any effect to LBWE.
Hope this helps.

Summing up key figure in Cube - data load from ODS

Hello Gurus,
I am doing a data load from ODS to cube.
The records in ODS are at line-item level, and all needs to be summed up at header level. There is only one key-figure. ODS has header and line-item fields.
I am loading only header field data ( and not the item-field data) from ODS to Cube.
I am expecting only-one record in cube ( for all the item-level records) with all the key-figures summed up. But couldn't see that.
Can anyone please explain how to achieve it.
I promise to reward points.
=====
Example to elaborate my point.
In ODS
Header-field item-field   quantity
123                301          10
123                302           20
123                303           30
Expected record in Cube
Header-field       Quantity
   123                    60
====================
Regards,
Pramod.

Hello Oscar and Paolo.
Thanks for the reply. I am using BW 7.0
Paolo suggested:
>>If you don't add item number to cube and put quantity as adition in update rules >>from ODS to cube it works.
I did that still I get 3 records in cube.
Oscar Suggested:
>>What kind of aggregate do you have for your key figure in update rules (update >>or no change)?
It is "summation". And it cannot be changed. (Or at least I do not know how to change it.)
There are other dimensions in the cube - which corresponds to the field(s) in ODS.
But, I just mentioned these two (i.e. header and item-level) for simplicity.
Can you please help?
Thank you.
Pramod.

Addition of key figure in master data attributes.

Hi All,
I have a scenario to DPO (Days payable outstanding) amount in FI.
I need to calculate purchases amount From 2LIS_O3_BF Based on the given input dates from customer .The Company code wise ACCOUNT PAYABLE amount to be calculated from OFI_AP_4.
There is no key link between this.
So i want to add one key figure in Company code attributes to calculate and store account payable amount using Routine. Then i will give this attribute as navigational in ODS of 2LIS_03_BF .
Can i have key figure in attributes of masterdata. I need to load this daily to calculate amount.
Is there any other solution, how performance will be effected with this solution.
Thanks,
JO

Hi Joseph;
Yes, you can add a KF as one attribute of master data.
The other solution that I see is you create a DSO as a target of 2LIS_03_BF and then a transformation with company code. Direct link between DS and IO is not advise because one is delta and the other is full (you could have some problems).
But if it's my choice... enhance the 0COMP_CODE_ATTR.

Ricardo

How to fill date key figure with system date?

Dear All,
We would like to set on specific action (button press) to assign current system date top a date key figure within our infocube.
Any idea how to achieve this?many thanks in advance for any idea!
Kind Regards
Olivier DESFOUR

Dear Khaja,
I'm not exactly using an update rule, i'm using Integrated Planning component.
Customer would like to set this key figure on user action; ie for example
user validate a step within planning process by pressing a button on workbook.
then system is stamping system date within cube.
Hope it helps
Kind regards
Olivier
