Locking hierarchy node

Hi everybody,
i have a problem with locking hierarchy nodes in the BEx (integrated planning). I have to show a certain hierarchy in the rows and i also have to select a certain node of this hierarchy before. Therefore i create an editable variable for this charactristic. After selecting a certain node of this hierarchy all nodes of this hierarchy will be locked so that nobody else is able to plan on this hierarchy. In my opinion it is not a normal reaction of the system. I really expect that only the selected hierarchy node and all the nodes assigning to this node must be locked, but not all the nodes of the hierarchy. Am i right? Has someone had the same experience? Is it probably a bug?
I really look forward to getting an answer.
Thanks in advance.
Ali

Hi Ali,
locks depend on the selection used in the filter of the query (or restrictions in structure members). So make sure that your restrictions are in the filter (the default values play no role). In the filter you can use select options or hierarchy nodes (this is then called a selection hierarchy).
If you are only using a presentation hierarchy this has not effect on locks.
Remarks: If a selection hierarchy is used in a filter the characteristic values with respect to the hierarchy base characteristic will be resolved, i.e. in RSPLSE you will see (maybe long) lists of single values.

Data slice inconsistency problem with hierarchy nodes

Hi Experts,
We want to lock planning tables from function. We create the appropriate data slices but there are problems with (material group) hierarchy nodes.
If I give the node as input variable to the function it causes inconsistency in the data slice. If I choose and add this node to the lock in modeler, the problem is the same.
We are using the following variables to create a data slice:
0VERSION
0VTYTYPE
0COMP_CODE
ZGRMAT (developed material group)
Z_YEARCR (developed yera created)
The problem also exist if I set an another type of node e.g. destination country (0RECIPCNTRY) instead of material group.
For me, the problem seems to be generic.
Do you have any idea?
Many thanks in advance
Peter

How to filter hierarchy node in BEX query designer

Dear experts
We are working on FI balance sheet with hierarchy infoobject 0GLACCEXT. Example of our balance sheet is as follow:
Parent Node A = 20
     Sub-parent Node A1 = 10
         Leaf A11 = 5
             Leaf A12 = 5
Parent Node B = 20
     Sub-parent Node B1 = 10
               Leaf B11 = 5
               Leaf B12 = 5
We require only:
    Sub-parent Node A1 = 10
    Leaf B12 = 5
So I filter those out in BEX restriction; however, after we examine the report in tcode RSRT, "Sub-parent Node A1" is not shown in BEX Report, and the result is as follow：
Parent Node B = 5
     Sub-parent Node B1 = 5
             Leaf B12 = 5
Are there solutions for us to show merely A1 and B12 ?

Hi Chu
Try the following steps.
Initial Output
In this example I will restrict the query for only displaying Node 8603 and leaf 9000
Proceed to restrict the Characteristic. Please be aware of the difference between hierarchy nodes and leaf characteristic values. Also set the Hierarchy display properties to expand up to level 1.
Execute the query again:
Please be aware that users will still be able to expand node 8603 and see the lower level nodes/leaf. In order to restrict users from doing this set up users authorizations.

DSO or ODS "Insert New Hierarchy Nodes" under Data Fields

When you insert info objects under the Data Fields in DSO right mouse click on the Data Fields icon and you will find Insert New Hierarchy Nodes . I created a hierarchy node with infoobjects associating with it which will be visible under the Filters Folder in BEx Query designer as a seperate folder. I can add them to the infoobjects from this folder into the query. I did not know how to apply this functionality in Queries and what it really does. My guess was you can create dynamic hierarchy using characteristic infoobjects from transactional data.Any ideas or links to documentation. This option was available from 7.X in DSO's and i think even in 3.x ODS.

Issue with hierarchy node variable and multiple SAP hierarchies

Hello experts,
We are currently facing an issue when using two SAP hierarchies in Web Intelligence and one of them is restricted with a hierarchy node variable.
The systems we use are a SAP BI 7.01 (SPS 05) and a Business Objects Enterprise XI R3.1 SP2 (fix pack 2.3). I want also to point out that the fix pack 2.3 has been applied to all BOE related components: the SAP integration Kit, client tools, and enterprise (server and client).
The universe used in our scenario is based on a BEX Query with two hierarchies (non-time dependent hierarchies, intervals allowed) loaded on their corresponding characteristics. One of these characteristics is restricted with a hierarchy node variable (manual input, optional, ready for input, multiple single values allowed).
Prerequisites for replicating the problem:
1) When building the web intelligence query select several levels from both hierarchies (they have seven levels each) and the only amount of the InfoCube that the BEX query (that was used to create our universe) relies on.
2) In the hierarchy node variable prompt select a hierarchy node entry (not an actual InfoObject value that exists as transactional data in the InfoCube )
By executing the query built above, all characteristics are returned null (no value) and the key figure with value u201C0u201D. No error messages, no partial results warnings. Now if we go back to u201CEdit queryu201D and select levels of only one of any of the two hierarchies the query runs normally (by selecting the exact same value for the hierarchy node variable prompt).
Any ideas on the matter?

Giorgos

Hierarchy Node Variable search (find) option not working

Hi Experts - I have created a hierarchy node varibale on a fixed hierarchy. When user run the report and click on hierarchy node variable selection option , A new window will pop up which has all the nodes.
As the list is quite big and has many levels , On the same pop up , we have find option , when we enter any node in the find box , its always give a ABAP Dump , It never works for me...
Is node find/search in not working in Bi 7.0 .

Hi Rohan,
We can restrict the hierchey level at property of of the hiearchey enabled characteristic.
Hope this hels...let me know if u require any further info on this..

How to pass a hierarchy node variable value over OpenDocument?

Hello,
I have been unable to link to an instance with matching parameters with opendocument with hierarchy node variables.
Has anyone attempted this or been successful?
Please reference this post I had in the Web Intelligence forum. sInstance=Param not working for sap bw query based reports (FWM 02020)
Here's some background information
We've created 2 new crystal reports based of sap queries.
Report 1, single prompt, no hierarchy.
Result : Can link to specific instance with matching parameters. Great!
Report 2, single prompt, hierarchy based.
Result: Cannot link to specific instance with matching parameters
Parameter list for report 2
[!V000001} : Cost Center/Gr{oup (Multiple) = {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
However when I go into the history and look at the successful instance parameters used, it seems to be picking up an extra parameter ( my guess is node)
XXX, XXX & XXX; {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
We have attempted to use the entire string, the first portion, second portion, and just the technical response. No luck.
Any help or pointers would be appreciated!
Nick

Hello Ingo,
I'll explain the situation more clearly,
Report 2, single prompt, hierarchy based.
Result: Cannot link to specific instance with matching parameters with a response from the Bus Objects server
An error has occurred: The object with ID -1 does not exist in the CMS or you don't have the right to access it (FWM 02020)
We have 1 parameter for report 2
{!V000001} : Cost Center/Group (Multiple)
We selected a single value:
{0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
(The XXX, XXX, & XXX is the description)
We ran a successful instance.
However when I go into the history and look at the successful instance parameters used it displays the following:
XXX, XXX & XXX; {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
An extra description seems to appear (The first XXX, XXX & XXX;) Our original selection was only {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
We attempted to build variations of the open document strings
1. We tried the entire parameter response,
XXX, XXX & XXX; {0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
2. The first description that was not part of the original selection,
XXX, XXX & XXX
3. The technical name and description
{0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE} - XXX, XXX & XXX
4. The technical name
{0COSTCENTER XXXXXXXX.BGT3}.{XXXXXXXXX.BGT3 0HIER_NODE}
Please let me know if you need more details.

Exclude a hierarchy node by using exit variable (not in query designer)

Hi gurus!!
I have a hierarchy for the infoObject 0COSTELMNT. Depending on the user who executes the report, the node '0599ADJUSTMENTS' must be displayed or not.
I am trying to solve it by using an exit variable:
Varible Type: Hierarchy Node
Processing : Exit
On the exit, I have entered the following code:
      IF ( sy-subrc = 0 ).
          l_s_range-sign = 'E' .
          l_s_range-opt = 'EQ' .
          l_s_range-low = 'AJUSTES'.
          APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
     ENDIF.
But unfortunately does no work!!
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Lack of texts in hierarchy nodes and leafs for 0ORGUNIT

Hello experts!
We have the BCT hierarchy 0ORGUNIT in BW exporting his time-dependent structure from R/3. Now, for some leafes and some nodes above the leaf we have no texts just see the key.
Has someone an idea what the problem could be? In R/3 we have the text and in master data of 0ORGUNIT we also have the text within the right time period...
Thanks for help!
Best reagards,
Peter

I'm not sure I understand what you are suggesting. Here is the data we have:
Hierarchy             Key Figure
- CC 0001 (node)      30.56
CC 0001 (leaf)          6.45
- CC 0002 (node)       24.11
       CC 0002 (leaf)     6.45
       CC 0003 (leaf)     5.72
       CC 0004 (leaf)     7.47
       CC 0005 (leaf)     4.47
We want the value 6.45 to show up next to the CC 0002 hierarchy node, since that is the value for that cc. And we want the 6.45 to show up against the cc 0001 node rather than adding everything beneath it. What you suggested below - is that a display option in the query, or where do I do it?
Thanks.

Hierarchy Node Intial load from R/3 to CRM 5.2

Hi
I have this problem when download form R/3 4.6c to CRM 5.2 hierarchy node.
Can you help me?
It's very important because we are blocked.
Thanks
Best regards.
we downloaded the following customer hierarchy:
0002189004
- 0002199004
- 0002190509
- 0002010050
using the object DNL_BUPA_KNVH.
In this way the table CRM_KNVH_TEMP has been filled correctly with all
the structure.
We executed the BPH_DNL transaction selecting only the hierarchy type
D,
and the sales org D468, distr chann 01 , divsion 99.
After saving the hierarchy we created all the hierarchy structure in
CRM but there are not any customers linked to the related hierachy node.In particular we found the followng situation:
table BUT_HIER_NODE, filled with all the hierarchy node
table BUT_HIER_NODE_D fille with all the descrption of the hiarachy
node in english language
table BUT_HIER_STRUCT filled with the structure and the link between
node
tables BUT_HIER_TREE,. BUT_HIER_TREE_d filled with all our hiearcy type
table BUT_HIER_NODE_BP empty
also:
the method "assign_bp_to_node" is only executed in the the private
method
"change_record" but it is commented in the method "create record" and
also
"build_crm_tree".
In conclusion the method "start_initial_down_load2 (executed int the
function CRM_BUHI_INITIAL_DOWNLOAD) call the method 2build_crm_tree2,
but this method never execute "assign_bp_to_node".

I have found a propoer articulation of my problem in SAP note 429423. It goes as follows:
"No entry exists in one of the queues, but the status in R3AM1 remains 'Running':
In this case, probably no reply is sent to the CRM Server after the data selection in the source system.If this is the case for an adapter object but not for others, contact the respective application component which can analyze why the source system does not send a reply and correct it.
If this system response occurs for all adapter objects, create a message for component CRM-MW-ADP."
However, I am unable to act on the above. Kindly suggest what exactly needs to be done as suggested in the note.

Creation of Variable for Hierarchy Node

Greetings...fellow matez,
 I am using Characteristic "0PROFIT_CTR" : PROFIT CENTER
 Here, I created used SAP Standard variable 0N_PCTR (Profit Center/Profit Center Hierarchy)
 This meets my requirement of allowing User to Input the TOP MOST Hierarchy Node basically means my Hierarchy.
 Now, what I need is the ability of a User Input/Key In Variable to ask for a specific Node of my Hierarchy instead of just the 'main' hierarchy
Let me demonstrate with an example :-
At the moment, I have a variable defined for "0PROFIT_CTR". So, I am able to choose "XXX GROUP" as my hierarchy.
Now, under this "XXX Group" I have several Sub-Nodes like XXX-Functional Groups ; XXX-Business Units; XXX-Subsidaries.
How can I create a variable which prompts for this Subnodes of my hierarchy ?

Matez,
Issue remains unresolved.
What I need is a Hierarchy - NODE variable for my "Profit and Loss" Hierarhy
But, when I use the variable option in the 'Selecting Variable for Hierarchy' scree, I only get to choose my Hierarchy instead of my Hierarchy Node.
How can I created a variable of type Hierarchy-NODE instead of Hierarchy for my characteristic "0Account"
Kindly advice matez!

Search Help for Hierarchy Node in SAP BW 7.3

Hi Experts,
We were previously using SAP BW 7.1 system and we had a table which used to be maintained through SM30 which has a customed search help on one of the fields for a hierarchy object. And it was working perfectly.
However, one of our systems have just been migrated into 7.3 version and the above functionality is no longer working.
This is what is happening now:
- User selects a hierarchy and after selection nothing is being displayed on field on the table.
We have tried to debug this customed search help in both environments to distinguish what is wrong. We have noted that a standard function module (RRSV_IOBJ_VALUE_OUTPUT) is not behaving similarly. In 7.1 system, the C_T_DATA table is being filled whereby in the 7.3 system, it is empty.
Do you think this is the issue?
Please do advise and propose what can be done to make it work. Or any idea on how to create a new search help for a hierarchy node in 7.3?
Thanks in advance.

hi,
one more thing i will like to add here is in BW 7.3 you get a new security admin feature that allows you to make mass changes to authorizations instead of one-by-one. This can be done by cut-and-paste in a worklist, hierarchy nodes, and you can also add users to multiple analysis authorizations.
The u2018newu2019 authorizations has both the data value and hierarchy restrictions. You can still build using the u201CRSECADMINu201D transaction
Also make sure that all objects are in the TLIBG library and they will be 'shielded' during the upgrade.
