Manipulate the F4 in the variable display

Hello BW Experts,
I have a variable var1 on infobject iob1.
iob1 has 10,000 records in the master data.
req: Only show 10 values in the F4
Is there a ABAP program / class I can modify to achieve this.
Thanks,
BWer

hi,
consider a scenario in which i have 2 variables.. say, A and B. i enter a value for A and then only the corresponding values of B should come on pressing f4(not all).
kindly fwd me the doc at [email protected]

Variable display broken wrt inherited members?

I am using dbxtool (12.3) with a C++ application, and have trouble with the variable display window: for derived class objects with data members from a base class nothing is displayed at all if I enable "Include Inherited", I see neither the derived class members nor the base class members. With the default (i.e. "Include Inherited" not active), I see the derived class members, but of course not the base class members. Is this a known bug, bossibly with some workaround?

Hmm... What a strange comment. From the source? Aren't we talking about Java? Inheritance and method invocations differs in Java and C++. I can understand if you wrote from the source, if it was Gosling who had answered. You should read about late and early bindings etc.
Just as a side note. A base class and a subclass can have a private method with the same signature, since they can't see/invoke each others private methods. E.g. This compiles and runs fine:
class A {
    public void doIt() {
        print();
    private void print() {
         System.out.println("A");
class B extends A {
     public void doIt() {
          super.doIt();
          print();
     private void print() {
          System.out.println("B");
class Example {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          B b = new B();
          b.doIt();

Compounded characteristic are not displayed in the variable screen (BI 700)

Hi Experts,
How to display compounded characteristic in the variable screen of queriies?
Example :
IO 0PROFIT_CTR is compounded to 0CO_AREA. Tryimg to select 0PROFIT_CTR via a variable,
only values of 0PROFIT_CTR are displayed in F4 opo up, not those of 0CO_AREA.
0CO_AREA is not restricted in any way in query definiton.
This happens in BEx Analyser as well as in web apllication.
Did anybody face this issue? How to solve it?
Thanks in advance for helpful replies.
Regards
Joe

Hi,
Thanks for replies. Possibly I did't explain my problem i a correct way.
'I 've a variable for 0PROFIT_CTR. When I call F4 , values for 0PROFIT_CTR are displayed
e.g. as
7062 PC 7062
7062 PC /062
My problem is, that these PCs belong to different Co_areas. so i expected
3200 7062 PC 7062
4300 7062 PC 7062
3200 an 4300 are representing compounded Co_areas in this example. In 3.5 this worked perfectly,
if Co_areas was not restricted itself with a variable or a defined value.
Now I'm looking for the option to achieve this as well in 700.
Regards
Joe

How to display the variable screen with report in the same page together

our customers want to design a web application use BEx
they want the variable screen can be displayed with the report result in the same web page together
so they can modify the variable filters any time and refresh the report with new variable filter
i have tried the navigation area,but it seems only use new filter to the data athough get,we can't change the filter we input in the variable screen.
is there any way to display these together?
even I can use BSP.

I think to display var screen with the report is not possible.(At least it will not be static). You need to refresh the report and choose the varibale at that time.
Other option could be to bring all the possible value in the report and provide your user with the filter value. But this will make your report slow as you may have to bring more data in the filter.
Thanks...

Manipulate the value of User Input Variable

Dear BI fellows,
I have a requirement to change the value that the user entered in variable screen (the variable type is a characteristic value variable, w/ processing by: user input), after the user clicks the execute button.
I tried creating 2 characteristic value variables, one w/ processing by: user input, to receive input from user, and the other one w/ processing by: user exit, which takes the value entered in the first variable and manipulate it, and eventually use this second variable to restrict data in the query.
But the problem is, the first variable must be associated w/ any characteristic in the query, and it eventually restricts data in query as well, which I don't want.
Thanks alot in advance.
regards,
arie

I browsed further on SDN and found someone mentioned about using variable in Restricted Key Figure/Selection, and eventually hide this Restricted Key Figure/Selection.
So we just make use of the first variable to receive user input and use the second variable w/ processing by: user exit to take value in first variable, manipulate it and use it to restrict the data.
The first variable doesnu2019t restrict the data, it only restricts for that particular key figure (Restricted Key Figure/Selection) which I then hide it.
Another thing is, I found that variable in Characteristic Restriction is executed first before variable in Restricted Key Figure/Selection.
Thanks all.
regards,
arie

How to display the variables in the specified manner?

We need to display some variables in an array in the horizontal order with backslash between the variables using a For loop in XML
For Example
Variable 1 / Variable 2 / Variable 3
Could someone provide valuable suggestions on the same.
Regards,
Sudeep.

Not sure if I understood the question, do you mean you want to display variables as output, where in the logic runs in a loop while reading the XML data and creates an array of data separated by backslash? You can always concatenate the variables similar to string concatenation.

How can a variable display the first character that's on the page?

I'm creating a telephone directory and want each page to display the alphabet of the first listing on the page on the top - only one character.
Can you tell me how to do this?

Hmmmmm, seems I was wrong about the GREP styles. I just tried it and they don't get picked up. I consider that a bug, but it's probably "as designed."
That leaves you having to work with nested styles only, or Find/Change. I think what you'll need to do is redefine the Paragraph style so it has two nested styles that apply the correct style to whatever needs to be styled at the start of the paragraph, one for the first character and the second for the rest of the word(s) if you can figure out a trigger (can InData add an end nested style character or is thew some punctuation you can use?), then find/change to remove the applied character style. For that I'd serach for ^.+ with the find format set to the character style that InData applied and the chane format set to [None], which will only remove it from the beginning of your paragraphs. If this is done correctly there will be no change in appearance since the redefined paragraph style will do the formatting.
If that won't work, you can use find/change to apply a new style to the first characters. Search for ^. and set the change format to the new character style that you'll use in the variable. It needs to have the same attributes as the style applied by InData or the appearance will change.
The second method is probably easier since you don't need to redfine the paragraph style, but both methods require you to use find/change to alter the text, which means if more text is added you'll need to re-do the find/change. Not a big deal, but don't forget. I'd be tempted to wait until the last minute and just ignore the headers for the moment, if editing is ongoing. I'd also test this on a copy of the file for safety.

Hi,
I am looking for nearly the same. What I have found is that it seems to manipulate the SAP theme that is used in standard when template is executed in the portal. Just display the source code of the HTML and there you will see the included SAP theme (normally SAP_TRADESHOW). Then you have to go to the SAP portal and change this stuff. But for that you have to know where to find it and what impact this change has.
I am not pretty sure if this is the right way. But as I want to change the standard layout of a whole template to a customer specific layout I think there is no other way in BI7.0.

Peter

Manipulate the sample rate through a layout

hola
i'm new user of dasylab and i would like to manipulate the sample rate through a layout ;i don't know how
also other small thing when i use coded swich and i want modify the text in the Switch Window i don't know how
Hope that someone would be able to help.!Lots of thanks!

The answer to the sample rate question depends on the device - is it using the DRIVER time base or a different device timebase.
To change the sample rate, you must replace the sample rate value with a Global Variable (e.g. ${Var_1}. But, there is a limitation - you must Stop the measurement and restart for it to use the new rate. This is because most drivers set up the scan parameters before the measurement starts, and it cannnot change without stopping the measurement scan.
For the Coded Switch,
You can select Value and unit or Name to be displayed. Select the radio button next to name (not Module name or channel name, just Name) and enter the alphanumeric string that you want to display. You can also change the Value for each switch setting, so that it is possible to have a unique value and a unique name for each switch position.

URGENT: Not seeing the variable Pop-up for Button , on web template in WAD

Hi gurus,
In IP I have a standard plan function for 'Copy', which has a few variables defined on the funciton itself (as to be changed):
Version from:
Version to:
Order from:
Order To:
Fiscal year from:
Fiscal year to:
All of the above variable are created with the following parameters:
Variable input: Optional (have also tried madantory)
Ready for input: is flagged.
Variable represents: Single value.
No default entry.
No personalized data.
Now in WAD, I create a button group for this function by selecting the Command, 'Executing Planning Function (simple)', manually entering my plan function technical name next to 'Command specific parameters', and selecting the dataprovider created for the filter I created in IP, and finally flagging the 'Display variable' button.
The problem is, on the web template the variable screen does not appear when I click on the function button. It executes the function in the background without giving me the pop-up for variable selection. And obviously since the variables have no default values, nothing is processesed.
I've tried this with planning sequence instead, and still wont give me the variable pop-up screen..
I've actually explicitlet entered the variables on the 'Parameters for Command screen', the same screen where you enter the filter for databinding and well as the function.
It still wont work (no variable pop-up screen).
Is this issue related to the support pack. We're on SP12 right now?
If not, do any of you gurus have any ideas? Big points will be rewarded for this.
Thanks

In the parameterization of the command, there is an option 'show variable screen'. I am not sure if you have mentioned this clearly, but have you checked this option?

Is it possible to use the iMac display as en external monitor?

I want to connect my powerbook up to an iMac using the display as an external monitor for the laptop. Is this even possible? Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hello,
I've seen this post at least a hundred times. Has
anyone actually had the gusto to try this idea?
I don't remember where the page was. But, I posted it's link several months ago in the forums during another discussion.
But, the guy who had done it to his iMac G3 had very poorly documented his conversion.
Basically, he took and wired signal to same signal on the monitor, and adapted his power supply and other items to work properly in the modified setup.
So, it is possible. You just need to sit down with the schematics and wire signal to same signal, and make sure you account for all the variables. It may take some resistors, etc. to get the adaptation just right.
I don't have any reason to do it myself, so I'm not going to tinker with it.
If I remembered the link, I'd post it. But, it wouldn't do much good anyway since his HTML formatting was severely messed-up. The end-result was accurate information that was scrambled around on the screen in such a way that you couldn't decipher it anyway. If he had done the HTML work properly, it would be in a formatted table. But, instead the information was scattered all over the screen in an illogical format. So, it wasn't of much real use.

How to get the variable value in description if I am writing a condition

I have created a query for TOP N Customers and
and for N I am passing as a varaible
& I want the same value to be displayed in the description
I tried a lot but I dont know how to do it
can any one tell me the solution for this
Thx & regards

Hi,
You have to define a Text Variable of type customer exit and pass the value of the Variable you have created for the condition in the Exit Code.
You have to use the correct I_Step = *.
Cheers.

Unable to see the variable in Query Designer

Hello Experts,
I am running one report and it is showing me 0calday variable selection screen at run time. I am unable to see this Variable on my Query designer but when I am opening query properties its showing me in this.
Kindly let me know where is this Variable using in my query designer ?
Thanks,
Anoop

Hi Anoop,
The variable is probably being used to restrict a key figure.
Go to the key figures,
Display the technical names
Check the key figures for which the technical name is not appearing even though the key figure is not a formula.
Here you will see one of the key figure being restricted by a variable for 0calday
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Joe
