List of planning function in workbook

Hello all!
How I can get list of contents of the work book? What buttons, planning functions and planing sequences there are used?
I have found the table INDX with binary data (also class CL_RSR_DB_WORKBOOK and another functions). But how i can use it?

Hi,
You can get the details from the workbook itself... In the bex tool bar, there is 'Design Tool Box'. You will get all the details pertaining to the workbook (PF\Query\PS) in that
Hope this helps

How to pass multiple values from workbook to planning function ?

Hi,
I have created Planning function in Modeler and it has one parameter(Variable represents = Multiple single values).
When executing the planning function by create planning seq. in the web template : I see value of variable store data like ...
A.) input one value -> V1
B.) input three values -> V1;V2;V3
This function execute completely in web.
However, I want to use the planning function in workbook(Excel).
The value of variable can't input V1;V2;V3... I don't know how to pass multiple values from workbook to parameter(Multiple single values type) in planning function ?
thank you.

Delete planning function in plan workbook

I had one query about how the deletion function should be used in plan workbook. in the plan workbook, the user would like to be able to delete the selected line / combination from plan workbook and plan cube. The options what I come up with is :
1. use macro to get the selected line in workbook and transfer the value to delete planning function (will be executed by clicking the button in workbook).
2. create another sheet, and require the user to enter the combination for which they want to delete and then get it deleted by clicking the button (delete planning fucntion will be triggered).
Could you please let me know if there is any better solution for this? And if would like to go with option 1, where I could get the sample or sample macro code?
many thanks
Jonathan

Hi, Jonathan
Maybe will be enough just make the key figure equal to zero and then save this value without any macros?

Variables from workbook are not visible in the Planning function

Hi,
We're using a workbook with a bunch of queries in it. Every query has a lot of variables declared that are calculated based on two input ready variable that users are required to fill the first time.
Everything works as expected until the save data function is called, which in turn calls the planning function.
Here, the user exit variable try to be recalculated again. Unfortunately, this planning function loses track of the two input ready variables that were on the workbook, so the user exit variables have no values.
Can you please suggest a method so that:
a) The user exit processing in the planning function "sees" the two input ready variables
b) The user exit processing is not triggered in the planning function and it's taking the already calculated values
Let me know if you require further information.
Best regards,
George

Hi,
the variables in the filter of the query lives in one variable container and the variables of the filter of the planning sequence live in another variable container. They do not know each other. You need to establish a relationship between them. Usually this is done via variable binding for regular variables. For exit variables the variable binding can be done as written above.
If as in your case you have variables in the filter of the query and you want to use their values in the variable of the planning sequence than you need to store the values somewhere where you can retrieve them in the exit. This can be in a e.g. in shared memory or in the session memory. To do this you need to spend an extra exit variable in the filter of the query. The exit variable reads the real values and stores it somewhere (e.g. shared memory, global parameter of a function group, a class member or something similar). Now as the variable value is stored it can be read in the implemenation of the exit variable in the filter of the planning sequence.
In total we have 3 variables:
Variable 1 contains the value which the user keys in and exists in the filter of the query.
Variable 2 reads variable 1 and stores the value. It needs to be defined in the filter of the query as well.
Variable 3 reads the stored value and needs to be defined in the filter of the planning sequence.

Permissions for Planning functions, queries and workbooks

Hello experts,
i have a short question about permissions in SAP BW and BW-IP. How can I restrict the execution of planning functions/sequences and queries or workbooks?
Thanks and regards!

Hello,
If you record an authorization log for your planning sequence you can see what objects are checked and this should help you to create authorizations to restrict access:
To record authorization logs for planning sequences, you have to go to RSECADMIN, activate that trace for the user and run the planning sequence as usual. See detailed steps below:
1. Activate the authorization log
- Go to RSECADMIN transaction
- change to "Analysis" tab and click on "Error logs" button.
- There you can see the "Configure Log Recording". Click on it.
- It will open a new screen, add the user which need to has the authorization log recorded.
- save it.
2. Open a new windows and execute the planning sequence.
- you can use the RSPLS_PLSEQ_EXECUTE report in se38 or other way to run it
3. Deactivate the authorization log recording
- following the same steps to activate the log, delete the user which you added in the step 1.
4. Check the authorization log
- Go back to RSECADMIN transaction
- change to "Analysis" tab and click on "Error logs" button.
- select the time interval to find your authorization log (or delete selections to see all)
- click on "display" button
- find your recorded log
- double click on it to open the log
- analyze it.

Workbook not refresh after running Planning Function (BI-IP)

Hi! Folks,
I have a problem with the Bex Analyser which not refresh the data after running Planning Function.
Step 1: Run Planning Function (There are some changes in records)
Step 2: I have to Run Process Variables again and input the same selection in the pop-up variables
Step 3: The changed records will be shown...
Can I have some coding in the Layouts of Bex Analyzer to refresh the data after running Planning Function?
Brgds,
Supasake

Hi,
I had a similar problem that the resuls of my planning function were not automatically shown. Only if I did "something else" like saving or running another function the results were displayed.
I think I solved it by upgrading my SAP GUI6.4 with patch 14. the results of planning functions should be automatically displayed.

BI-IP - Bex Analyser - select excel single row and aplly planning function

Hi experts,
In BI-IP (BW 7) with Bex Analyser, is it possible to select a single excel row (or a range of rows) and then apply a planning function? I know that in WAD it's possible with the binding option to select a single web item.
The purpose is to apply a revaluation factor to selected (by the user) cost elements rows in the workbook.
Thanks and regards,
MA

Hi
It is possibel in WAD to select one or many rows while executing Functions such as--Reposting; Revaluation etc.
However, you should be in a position to select the rows based on....unique identifier such as Require ID; Request #; Serial #; ....this is more so in case of multiple entries for the same cost element for different combinations.

DS 1.3 changing the value of a variable in a planning function

Hello,
i created a planning application with Design Studio 1.3 and one of my planning functions is a revaluation function which uses a variable for the revaluation factor. In Analysis for Office you can set a value for this factor by selecting the planning function and then give a fixed value or set a reference to a cell in your workbook. However in Desing Studio i don't see my variable under my planning function and i also couldn't find a script command to use for this problem because the variable is not known to Design Studio. Right now i can only set a default value for the variable in SAP BW (RSPLAN) but i would like to let the user enter a value at runtime of my application.
Anyone already had a similar problem and can confirm that it is not possible to access variables used in planning functions or has found a way and can tell me how to achieve this?
Greetings,
André

Hi Andre,
we are using the revaluation function type, too.
For setting the variable for the factor you should use the following script:
<ds_planningsequenceOrFunctionAlias>.setVariableValueExt("<techNameOfTheVariable>", <value>);
It could be possible, that you cannot see the variable in the value help (strg + space) after inserting the planning sequence or planning function to your Design Studio application.
Please, enter the technical name of the variable manually, it should work.
We have no problems. In our application the variable is filled by an input field value.
Kind regards
Patrick

Error during the execution of a planning function in BI 7

Dear All,
I created an input ready query and took it into a workbook.
I have to execute a planning function (by a button) which calculates some new data but I get the following error after I clicked on the button message:
Error when inserting or changing in a sorted table
And the BW server closes the connection.
Any help?
Thanks in Advance,
Dezso

You seem to be having a multi-mapping involved.
The operation mapping has to produce at least the start and end tag.....even if the entire message is not present
Ex:
<SRC>
<First>
<Middle>
<Last>
</SRC>
If above is the structure, then it should be ensured that at least <SRC></SRC> is created by your mapping program....however in your case this is not happening....the tags that you see Messages and Message1 are due to the multi-mapping program and your message should be more than this.
if you say that occurence is 0..1 then what you can do is map this 0..1 node (root) with at least a blank Constant.
Unless you create a message (even though empty) you will continue to receive the error message.

Abhishek.

Invoke a planning function in BI-IP using a button to copy filtered data

Hi All,
I am using a planning function type copy to create a new version of data in the infocube.
In Web Application Designer, I created a button that invoke my planning function using a command type EXEC_PLANNING_FUNCTION. So, I would like to copy the records displayed in my analysis item (that are filtered by some drop down items), but what is happening is that all records in infocube are copied instead of copying the data that is filtered by the drop down items.
Can you help me with any suggestion?
Thank you.
Bruno Rodrigues

Hi Bruno,
"How I can use the planning filter to restrict for the values presented in the drop down boxes?"
You can create the filter which contain the characteristic which you use when created dropdown boxes.
You can add chararcteristics values in the filter, these values you will see in the dropdown box.
You can use the dropdown boxes to restrict the filter.
You can place the dropdown box (boxes) on your BEx workbook, and connect (with macro I think) to the SAP.
If you choose a value in the dropdown box and run the sequence, the sequence's filter will be restricted that value which you choosed.
Best regards,

Sequencing of variables when executing a planning function in IP

I am using BI Integrated Planning and have created a web application that executes a u201CCopyu201D planning function on the click of a button. The u201CCopyu201D planning function has a number of variables to accept u201CThe Fromu201D and u201CTou201D values. When I click on the button, I am prompted for the variable values. However, I would like to re-sequence the list of variables that appear on the prompt.
We are on BI 7.0 Support Pack 17.
Any pointer is appreciated.
Regards,
Sanjay Kumar

Hello Sanjay,
I am afraid this is not possible. There is no option provided to arrange the order of input variables for a planning function.
An idea would be to include a query in the web template containing the same variables and arranging them in the query properties; and hide this query in the web template.

IP: Use of input-ready variable in planning function

Dear all,
I'm using an input-ready variable for fiscal year (0P_FYEAR) in my input ready query. It's used for restricting my columns.
I'd like to use the value of this variable in my planning function and I use VARV for that in the FOX.
However, when implementing the pl.function as a button in the BEx Analyzer I need to fill in the static parameters the VAR_VALUE_1 with a value.
If I delete this line from the static parameters my plfunction end swith an error.
I like this value of course to be filled with value of fiscal year entered by the user when starting the query.
Does anybody know how to solve this?
Kind regards, Harjan

Hi Johannes,
Thanks for all the useful information!
Another thing on using PF.
I've got two workbooks with different queries but using <u>same</u> filter.
Queries differ in keyfigures, but are on same cubes in MultiProvider.
I can run the workbooks simultaneously: no locks occur.
I've got two planning functions that make calculations on the keyfigures entered in the workbook.
However when I inplement the PF's in both workbooks and assign the dataprovider as filter, i do get locks!
So, the PF also uses the same filter, but doesn't take into account the different keyfigures.
In the fox-formula i don't have the option to make conditions on keyfigure values (field keyfigname), neither to enter them in the filter.
Do you have any thoughts on this?
<u>Second</u> point:
When i filter on a navigational attribute and execute the pf, i get errors on my pf.
It states it can't find the value of the characteristic to which the navigational attr belongs. F.i. when i filter on nav attr 'customer group' (attr of char 'customer') and execute pf, the system gives an error on the value of char 'customer'.
It states: value of characteristic customer is notincluded in the selection.
Any thoughts on this one?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards, Harjan

How to Write a FOX Formula in Intergrated Planning Functions?

HI BI-IP Experts,
I have just written a FOX formula to call an ABAP Function Module which will execute a Process CHain to run.
Here is what I wrong in the FOX formula in the Planning Function ZPF_FOX_CALL_PC.
Call Function Z_CALL_PROC_CHAIN
= * 1.
I had to add in this line otherwise the system do not allow me to save the FOX.
In the Function Module Z_CALL_PROC_CHAIN, it contains the following codes:
    SUBMIT rsprocess
           WITH type    = 'CHAIN'
           WITH variant = 'Process chain name'
           AND RETURN.
Next I created a workbook with a button that executes this Planning Function ZPF_FOX_CALL_PC.
The button contains 3 lines:
CMD => Execute Planning Function
Planning Function Name => ZPF_FOX_CALL_PC
CMD => SAVE_AREA.
After I clicked on the button, my excel seems to be running and I waited for very long but nothing happens.
And it seems to be running and running and won't stop.
Is it because the program is running in a loop because I missed out some codes in the FOX?
Thanks,
Shunhui.

hi,
Since you have not given any condition, the fox formula is being executed for all the number of records...thats why you are seeing the loop.
example if you have 10 records in your BPS template, the formula is getting executed 10 times for each
you need to select the field for condition which will make 1 entry, so the function module gets executed just once..
or.. in the function module when you trigger the process chain, make an entry in a database table... when the 2nd row starts, it will check the table... if the entry exists, it will skip the scheduling of process chain... so on..
In the process chain.. at the end, delete the entry from the database..
so your code in the function module should be like this ... assume you have 10 records..
select * from table zlock where process chain name = pc name
(this is to check if the process chain is already running, if yes skip, if no trigger the process chain)
if sy-subrc eq = 0.
exit
else.
DATA: number           TYPE tbtcjob-jobcount,
      name             TYPE tbtcjob-jobname VALUE 'JOB_TEST',
      print_parameters TYPE pri_params.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
EXPORTING
    jobname          = name
IMPORTING
    jobcount         = number
EXCEPTIONS
    cant_create_job = 1
    invalid_job_data = 2
    jobname_missing = 3
    OTHERS           = 4.
(this will trigger the process chain in background)
IF sy-subrc = 0.
SUBMIT rsprocess
WITH type = 'CHAIN'
WITH variant = 'PC name'
VIA JOB name NUMBER number
                    AND RETURN.
(after the process chain started, make an entry in the lock table.. so it will not be executed again)
insert entry in table zlock
ENDif.
endif.
I understand this is complex, but I think its one solution I can think of.

Planning function

Hi all,
how can i automatically execute planning function when the layout is open.
is it possible in IP.

Yes you can, as Mayank said, in the Web Analyzer is the option.
Instead of Web Analyzer, if you're using the Bex Analyzer, in the case of netweaver 2004's, I use the macro functionality (excel functionality).
Once you are designing the workbook, you can specify in the "options Workbook" a macro that can be executed. first select the "General" tab, select the "Refresh workbook on Open", in the "Exits" tab, select "invoke macro on refresh" and specify the macro name. in the macro you can launch the same action to execute anything that you previously details in your buttons or planning functions.
Hope it is suitable for you.
