Key figures as text

Dear Experts,
Below is the output of my report:
Parameter(Char)
Overall Score(KF)
A
100
B
0
C
90
Parameter B has only 0 or 1 values for Overall Score.
In bex output, 0 should replace with NO and 1 with YES for parameter B only.
Expected output:
r(Char)
Overall Score(KF)
A
100
B
NO
C
90
Please let me know if there is some work around on this.
Thanks,
Ravi Rawat

Hi,
Actually the user wants to see overall score value for parameter B as Yes or No.
When overall score = 1, then Yes and when eq to 0, No.
Overall score is a key figure.
From my end, I converted Overall Score in characteristics.But the user also wants to hide Overall Score Column when entire column has zero values.This can be achieved only by taking Overall Score as Key figure.
So, please suggest me a work around which can full fill my both requirements.
Thanks,
Ravi

Dynamic Texts from Bex ( for Key Figures ) not coming to WEBI Query

Hi Gurus,
We have a Query in BEx : Each Key figure column text changes dynamically - Like based on Present month
it will Display Month +1 Month +2 up to Month +12. Used dynamic Text variables .
But when i created the universe and Webi report , i am missing the text in the column for Key figures .
How should i get the column text in Webi which is same as in Bex : Points will be awarded for helpful
answers.
Thanks
Magge

Hi,
text variables with replacement path are supported in BO4.0, see following document: SAP BusinessObjects BI4 - Supported BEx Query Elements
As an example after entering 2012 in the prompts window, the name of the corresponding key figure will dynamically change:
After refreshing and selecting 2013, the column name will update:
Im not sure though if this is the case with unv universe access to BEx queries.
Best regards,
Victor

How to influence the text display of key figures in the interarctive DP

Hello all,
Does anyone know if there is a possibility (BADI, etc.) to change the text display of key figures (not characteristics!) in a planning book/data view?
I know that you can define a free text in the data view but still, this is only one fixed text and it cannot be changed.
Reason for the request: We would like to use the same key figure (and hence, indicate 2 different texts) for two different purposes (in different selections) without having to create a new data view.
Kind regards,
Klemens

if you dont want a new data view and might even go to the extent of creating a user exit for this ... here is an idea
- just create auxillary KF ( or use spare Temp KF depending on what you want to do with the data in the view) for each of these KF with the text
lets say you have KF1 and KF2 - create KF1A and KF2A
Make sure KF1A = KF1 and KF2a = KF2
Now depending on user you can display KF 1 and KF2 or KF1a and KF2a depending on the user by using macros USER() and ROW_VISIBLE(0)

Text elements and key figures with multiple restrictions

Hi,
I'd like to display text elements in my query according to the restricted key figures in it. There is a restricted key figure used multiple times with different base of restriction. (For exmple Sales in the past week and yesterday.)
KF restricted by <i>actual calendar week</i>, and
KF restricted by <i>actual calendar day</i>
When displaying text elements, only calendar week appears, however, if KF restricted by calendar week is removed from the query, calendar day is being displayed. (I suppose that both time characteristics are taken as filter values.)
Is that possible to display both filter values at once? Or at least calendar day meanwhile still having the week-based restriction in the query?
Thanx in advance,
Gabor

One option would be to not use the *MVAL keyword and load the amount and quantity in separate Data Manager package imports wherby you can easily assign the NA to the appropriate dimension. When you import amount -- assign NA to P_UNIT and when you import quantity -- assign NA to P_CURRENCY.
However I suppose you would prefer to have one import process. Unfortunately I think you will have to find an ABAP custom solution by calling the END_Routine BADI from the transformation file to deal with the currency and unit dimensions.

Long text problem in BW query and Key figure name

Hello
We're using SAP BO 4.0 (IDT) and SAP BW as a datasource. Maybe someone knows:
1. How to change the name of keyfigure, which now appears as Formula 1, Formula 2 etc. In BW every single key figure has it's own name Sales, Purchases etc. What I'm missing here?
2.As you well might know every single char infoobject has it's own Long\Short\medium which now appears as an attribute. When I choose multiple Long definitions then the execution of a BEx query fails with 'Inconsistent answers'. In Universe Designer we can change the objects name, but how to proceed here. Do I need to change something on a Bex query level?
I'm well familiar with SAP BO, but due to lack of experience in SAP I'' ve hit astumbling block with these 2 things> Any assistance would be more than welcome
Thanks in advace

Hi,
for (1) - that doesn't sound right... i think your KF are calculated KF (CKF) possibly with a formulae variable .. or something, which is supposed to populate the name, based on a user response ?
Or maybe you've got non-unique KF descriptions, and this is some system imposed nomenclature?
for (2) i'm not so sure, but you may have to change the infoobject text setting, globally, in RSA1. webi won't like non-unique labels if the keys are different.. How does it look with the default 'key and text' (medium) setting?
yes you can change the characteristic display properties in Bex query designer, but i have a funny feeling that it doesn't get consumed by webi over that API. (it's native OLAP stuff for BEx really...)
Good luck

How to add Characteristic text to Key figures in Bex report?

The result set of a report is like this
                                      Q1             Q2            Q3           Q4
Payment amount      Payment          2000           4000          1200         1400
                    Recovery         1200           1400           100          200
Commission          Payment          4000           5000          2000         2000
                    Recovery         2000           2000           100          100
Total               Payment          1500           1200          5000         4000
                    Recovery          600            200          1000          200
The first Column Payment amount, Commission and Total are key figures.
Payment and recovery are text of a Characteristic Infoobject ( Flag type : X = Payment, # = Recovery ).
Now the requirement is not to have Characteristic Infobject as Column but to have them as text beside keyfigure.
LIike this
                                      Q1             Q2            Q3           Q4
Payment amount (Payment)             2000           4000          1200         1400
Payment amount (Recovery)            1200           1400           100          200
Commission (Payment)                 4000           5000          2000         2000
Commission (Recovery)                2000           2000           100          100
Total (Payment)                      1500           1200          5000         4000
Total (Recovery)                      600            200          1000          200
How to achieve this kind of result?

Create Restricted Keyfigures to achieve this requirement.
create 2 RKF for Payment Amount Keyfigure
Create RKF1 with Payment Amount keyfigure and restrict flag type with "X" and then
Create RKF2 with Payment Amount keyfigure and restrict flag type with "#".
And use the RKF's in the query.
Similarly create two RKF's for each Keyfigure used in the query and restrict it with flag type.

How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT

Hi gurus,
How can i do to see the master and text values of the Key figure 0UNIT, please step by step, i m in the key figure 0UNIT but i want to see if the UNIT for example BX = BOX, something like this is that i want to check, thanks!

If you look at the unit tables, you will see the values and texts. It's in SPRO, not in RSA1. My access is limited on my system here, but the documentation says to go to t-code CUNI. I believe in that tcode you can look at all of the unit equivalencies and what each unit's text is ..... like an ea means each; KG = Kilogram; etc...
I am on an 3.x system, so in SPRO I go to BW CIG=>General Settings=>Check units of measurement.

Display Text as a Key Figure

Hi peeps,
I would like to display a text half way along my bex report
i.e. would like to display 4 chars ,then 5 kfs then some text and then some more kfs.
i am currently doing this using a Formula Variable to Replace a KF value with a char, and this works to an extent.
The char value is diplayed, but the formula variable only allows me to set the output to Number so if the char contains anything other than a number it fails to display. It also contains the number formating in bex.
any ideas.
e.g.
if a char contains week no, 200450, when using a formula var to display this as a KF, I get 200,450 formatting in Bex.
If the char contains 10/20/30 I get a display error in bex as it will not alow the '/' to be displayed
any ideas.

You could create your query as a tabular query. To do this just click on the 'Tabular Display' Button (left beside the technical Name button. There you can arrange the columns as you like and you are not restricted to characteristics/key figures order.

Restricted Key Figure Column heading text missing

Hello,
I created a restricted Key Figure in a BEX report and dragged this RKF into the columns tab. when i execute the report , the column header text for the restricted key figure is missing. The values are fine, but the header column text for that KF is missing. any help?
Thanks
justin

Hi Justine...
I think u r doing something wrong..........Either u can create Global Restricted Key(Infoprovider level) or Local restricted ket figure(Query level)..........If u create Global........then in the left pane............Right click on the Keyfigure >> New restricted Key figure...........to create in the Query level..........In the context menu>> choose Edit........... or select the heading of the Rows or Columns directory
and use the right mouse button to choose New Structure..........In both the cases....there is a Description Field........u hav to write the description there............U can change the technical name also.........then save it........
May be it is a temporary bug............just come out the query..and again reopen it......

Text Variable for a Restricted Key Figure

Hi,
I have a version comparison query three Restricted Key figures based on 0QUANTITY each of which are restricted by Version, Value Type and Fiscal Year. All three are in my query columns. The users select 3 sets of version, value type and fiscal year in the selection for comparison.
They want to see the text of the version they have selected as the description of the column. How can i achieve this with text variables on these 3 Restricted Key Figures which have multiple restrictions. Please advise
Thanks
Rashmi.

Hi Rashimi,
As u said this can be acheived by text Variable,
I have adoubt here,are there THREE columns for Quantity or just ONE column with three Restrictions.
In case it is three Columns then u can go with Text variables else probably u may have to populate it in three Columns and by using Workbook you can combine them in one Column.....i.e One column with all the restrictions -text.
And here is how u create a text variable.....
Create text Variables,For Example ,say 0FISCALYEAR.
1)Right Click on the 0FISCALYEAR and Create a input Variable say YFISCYEAR and save.
2)If ur using 0FISCALYEAR in the RKF,then drag both the 0FISCALYEAR and KF say 0QUANTITY in the new selection.
3)After the Description of the RKF there is a = sign click on that to VIEW and CREATE Text variable.
4)Create New Variable ,enter the tech name(say YFYEAR) and dscription and in the same screen choose type Replacement PAth after which u will get a set of infobjects.
5)choose 0FISCALYEAR
6)In the Next screen choose the Tech name of the Input variabble(0FISCALYEAR) and save.
7)In the description of the RKF ,type as 0FISCALYEAR &YFYEAR&.
Check this too .....

Roll Over text for key figures

Our business users are requesting us to apply the "Roll Over Text" to the APO/DP Key Figures. Currently the text pop-up displays only the key figure name when you keep the curser on it. We would like to have pop-up text with 40 character values when the curser keeps on the keyfigure in the Interactive Planning Book.
We have more than 60 keyfigure in each planning book (total around 200 Keyfigures) and most of the key figure names are looks similar, to avoid confusion we would like to maintain the 40 character note should display when some body would like to know about the keyfigure.
Is there any possibility to maintain the rollover text in Planning Area or Planning Book or any where else ? Is there any performance issues if we design in this way ?

Write a macro which can run on start.
Row: Forecast ( Attributes ) = ROW_TOOLTIP( 'Forecast Constrained Plan' ) .
In this case, the Row Forecast will have tool tip "Forecast Constrained Plan"

Hot to conver text to number....i.e char to key figure

Dear All,
we have field called 0base_location characteristic.
The data for this field is 30 WAGONS
2 WAGONS Etc...
Based on this data i need to do a calculation i.e 32 i mean total of above two
its being a characteristic, i can not do the summation.
I feel the alternative is to map a this characteristic to a Z key figure and do some routine...my query is wil this solve the problem?
If so kindly give me the ABAP code....
please suggest other alternatives
please help me out
Regards
venu

Hello venu,
Ur problem can be solved using Virtual Char. And Virtual Key Fig.
U need 1 Virtual Key Fig. and Chara. each.
U can move last par "WAGONS" inot cha. and numeric part to Key Fig.
After which u can sum up key part at query level.
Any futher details required let me.

Sachinkumar.

Program or FM tochange description of key figure in all queries at a time

Hi,
As per my requirement i need to change the description of a key figure from OED to IEG in all the reports which are containing "OED" as key figure at Query level only.
Its a KF and not a resteicted key figure or calculated KF.
Is there any program or table or Function module where we can change the key figure description directly
without going to each Query and change it.
Please suggest me.
Thanks & Regards
Bharathi

texts for key figures chars. etc are refrenced only once when query is created. after that if description changes in the infoobject that doesn't reflect in query.
Texts for all elements are maintained in RSZELTTXT table. you can write a simple program to modify texts of elements which suit your need. Contact any abaper in your team to write this program which simply updates the texts of certain elements..
logic may be like this
select all lines from RSZELTTXT where TXTSH = 'Plant' or TXTLG = 'Plant'.
modify these llnes with new text.
update rszelttxt with these new lines

Urgent: Error in uploading data in cube after adding new Key figure

Hi Guys,
I have added 1 key figure (DEC) to my existing cube. and proceeded as below:
1. Deleted all data from cube
2. activated the cube
3. set Constant 1 for this key figure
4. activated the transformation
5. reated a new DTP
But when i execute it, it gives me error. in updating to infocube ZSDBILL:
Error while updating to target ZSDBILL
Process Terminated.
all other steps in DTP are succesful like: extraction, error handling and transformation.
There is no details in long text of these errors.
Can anyone suggest whats the error stands for or what i am missing.

Once logout and login back then again activate cube,transformation and run the DTP.
Hope it helps you
