Missing variable

Hi Guys,
I'm using an infoobject in both an infoset and a multiprovider. I've created a variable in one of the queries, and want to add that same variable to another query. It is however not showing this variable in the query designer! Any ideas why I cannot select this variable?
I can make a copy, but it will have a different technical name which results in the variable being shown two times in the variable selection screen.
Any help is appreciated!
Kind regards,
Joost

Hi
If the varaible is created under a particular info object then that should Exist.
Check your other report which has that varaible and which characteristics.
Then create the report. Else create a new varaible and try to use that for both the reports and ignore the previous one.
Regards
M.A

Script task within child package - breakpoint wont hit, trying to find missing variable

Im calling a child package and its failing on a script task with a message which indicates one of the variables cant be found
The script threw an exception: The element cannot be found in a collection.
So I remove the readonly/readwrite section, and place a breakpoint on the very first line of the script task. When I run the main package, by breakpoint on the child package script task isnt hit but I still get the error about the missing variable.
How can I find out which variable its complaining about?

You can raise an event in the script using FireInformation and pass into it the variable content as string
examples:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136054.aspx?cs-save-lang=1&cs-lang=csharp#code-snippet-1
The variable content will put into the Output window (go to View menu to enable it).

What is the best way to define this missing variable?????

I think I am almost there with this question, thanks for working with me on this: trying to make buttons go target cue points in video
I get this error code:
ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable seek_btn is not defined.
import fl.video.*;
// Video component instance name
var flvControl:FLVPlayback = display;
var flvSource:String = "lou.flv";
// Set video
flvControl.source = flvSource;
// Add seek functionality to the button
function seekHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
flvControl.seekToNavCuePoint("lou1")
seek_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, seekHandler);
seek_btn1.cuePointName = new String();
seek_btn1.cuePointName = "lou1";
seek_btn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onButtonPress);
seek_btn2.cuePointName = new String();
seek_btn2.cuePointName = "lou2";
seek_btn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onButtonPress);
// onButtonPress function
function onButtonPress(evt:MouseEvent):void {
flvControl.seekToNavCuePoint(evt.target.cuePointName);

Definitely.... you are trying to assign a listener to something that does not exist
seek_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, seekHandler);
If you do not have a seek_btn, the best way to define the missing variable is to create the seek_btn object. If you don't plan to, then rather than define it, get rid of any code that uses it.

Programmatically creating a Rendezvous : missing variable in Result container

Hi everybody,
For my tests purpose, I need to programmatically create a sequence. In this sequence, I need to insert Rendezvous steps.
Everything works fine when creating them, but when I execute the sequence / steps created this error always show up for rendezvous step :
Unknown variable 'TimeoutOccured' ; Error accessing item 'Result.TimeoutOccured'
According to the TS help, this variable should be created when I configure the step for the rendezvous operation. Drag and dropping the step from the TS insertion palette works fine, and the variable is created when chosing the operation 'rendezvous'. But when doing the same thing through programmation, the variable is not created.
Here are the steps executed to create the RDV step :
I create a new step using method Engine.NewStep
I set the step name using Step.Name
I set the rendezvous properties using a statement (Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RDVStep is the variable holding the the step reference) :
Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RDVStep.AsStep.Operation = 1, //A value that specifies the operation for the step to perform. The valid values are 0 = Create, 1 = Rendezvous, and 2 = Get Status
Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RDVStep.AsStep.NameOrRefExpr = Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RefName, //Contains the Rendezvous Name expression for the Create operation and the Rendezvous Name or Reference expression for all other Rendezvous operations
Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RDVStep.AsStep.TimeoutEnabled = False, //The Timeout Enabled setting for the Rendezvous operation
Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RDVStep.AsStep.ErrorOnTimeout = True, //The Timeout Causes Run-Time Error setting for the Rendezvous operation
Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RDVStep.AsStep.RendezvousCountExpr = Parameters.NbBranches, //The Number of Threads Per Rendezvous expression for the Create operation
Parameters.BranchesRendezVous.RDVStep.AsStep.Lifetime = 3, //A value that specifies the Lifetime setting to use for the Create operation. The valid values are 0 = Same as Sequence, 1 = Same as Thread, 2 = Use Object Reference, and 3 = Same as Execution
4. Then I insert the step in my current sequence using method Sequence.InsertStep
Everything works fine, the rendezvous step is perfectly created and all properties are set finely. However, the variable TimeouOccured is missing in the Step.Result container (TS help says that this propoerty exists when the step is configured as a rendezvous operation (cf. Operation = 1)).
Am I doing something wrong somewhere ? Why is this variable missing ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Doug,
TS help says that this property exists when the step is configured as a rendezvous operation (cf. Operation = 1)... So shouldn't it be created when I create / insert the step ?
I find it very weired to add a subproperty to a StepType, in the Result container...

Keyboard Shortcuts Missing / Variables Panel Error

This has been going on for at least a couple of weeks now. I'm currently using CS4, Windoxs XP (SP3) and Firefox. Every time I open the Illustrator program, the following message pops up:
"Error loading plugins. Variables Panel.aip."
So I click OK and the workstation screen opens up. Only problem now is that the keyboard shortcuts for Open, Close, Copy, Paste, etc. are missing and I can't even use the keyboard to zoom up and down on the layer section.
I have read several forums on how to fix the problem short of uninstalling and reinstalling the program. I tried going to:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS4\Plug-ins\Extensions
...and removed the "Variables Panel" plugin, then went to CA Technologies and removed, then restored the Win32/FakeAlertYS files.
Opened the program. Not only did it not work, but it crashed in the process!
I then tried updating Firefox to 3.6. That didn't work either.
I'm running out of things to try but I guess my only resolution is to contact the tech support and shell out the 42 dollars in order to get the program working again.

That's what I ended up doing, with some technical help...and now it's
working properly.

Missing variables in Infoset Query.

Hi All,
0P_KEYD2 is a variable for characterstic "Posting Date" in the query which fires on ODS 0FIAR_O03.I have created an Infoset on ODS 0FIAR_O03 and 0CUST_SALES(Master Data)and created a query on this infoset. But I am unable to see variable 0P_KEYD2 for Posting Date in the Infoset Query.
(There are some other variables too which are not visible in Infoset Query, these include - custom "Z..." variables & BC variables, with SAP exit and with User entry, etc)
Could anyone suggest how to access this same variable for query on infoset as in ODS query?
I tried having an new Infoset with just the ODS 0FIAR_O03, but here again these variables are missing for this characterstic (and possibly other variables for other characterstic), while if I try to build the query on the above ODS directly I get the variables!
Version: We are on BW 3.5
Thanks,

Hi,
I'd put this query in SDN quite some time back..but didn't get any response then.
As Raymond said above, that is what I'd done in my case. The original variables are SAP exit (u can view their code in the standard SAP FM's). Here the code refers to other variables/objects with their specific tech names (or something similar..don't remember it now). In infoset, as we dont get the original tech. names of the objects in the query ...these SAP exit codes will not work for these variables.
The solution is to create your own custom variables & populate it in Customer Exit. U can get the logic from the SAP exit code...its not that difficult to understand.

Missing substitution value for variable [dispatcher.host]

Hello,
I'm getting the error message "com.sap.engine.deploy.manager.MissingSubstitutionException: Missing substitution value for variable [dispatcher.host]." if I'm trying to deploy an SCA file via SDM (remotegui.bat).
It seems that the problem is a missing variable setting. But I couldn't find any hints at the available SAP web sources which values needs to be set.
It would be really great if somebody could give me a hint which steps I need to do to solve this issue.
Many thanks in advance,
Steffen Zimmermann

Yes, it was a really not a default variable.
Replacement of the variables directly at the archive with the correct value did solve the issue.

Variable missing in portal

We publish all BI reports in portal. We have moved one query from development to production. I have checked this query in BEx Analyzer and ran the query through Web analyzer(Ctrl+R). The report is working fine. The report has a user entry variable
Now i shared the technical to portal team, they created an iview and published the report.
The report is assigned to couple of users. When they access this report, they are not getting the variable screen.
When i check with portal team they say the problem on BI side. But on BI side we are getting variable in BEx Analyzer and Web Analyzer.
Does anyone have any clues on missing variable.

Dear Murali,
Can you please share how you solved this issue as we too face it. I have raised a question on this at EIF-General.
Thanking you in advance.

Missing System Variables - FM11

Yesterday I added a new variable to one FM file then noticed most of my system variables had disappeared. Now even when opening any other file, or even starting a new file, most of the system variables are missing. Suggestions? FM11 v 11.0.2.384

Never Mind - it seems the missing variables "missing" show up when I am on a master page and not the body page. Opps

Problem with variable in the woorkbook selection screen.

Hi All,
I have Problem with Variable in the selection screen. I have four variable in the report in this sequence
<b>Plant (optional), calendar month (mandatory), material (optional), Customer (mandatory). </b>
In Development system, I changed the query to fix the problem for a formula. saved and executed the query. In the selection screen appeared four variables and executed. after executing the query and I saved the work book also. I logged out of the Bex Analyzer. In the RSRT I generated the report by clicking the Generated Report push button. and again logged into the Bex analyzer and ran the work book, now in the selection screen, appeared three Variables only, I am missing the variable <b>Customer</b>.
The old report which is already in the Production system is working fine. What could be the mistake I did in the development system.
It is very urgent, I need to deliver this object as soon as possible.
Can I anybody help on the same.
Thanks in advance
Narendra

Yunus,
I did what you said. I removed the variable from characteristic restrictions, saved the query and executed the query, appeared three variables Plant, Calender month and material. executed and saved the work book. disconeted from Bex analyzer, in RSRT Generated Report and logged into Bex analyzer ran the work book for selection Plant, calender month and material and went into change query definition and added the variable for customer which was removed earlier and and ran the query for selections Plant, Calender monmth, Material and customer. saved the work book. disconnected from Bex analyzer and closed all excel sheets and work books. In RSRT Generated Report and again connected to Bex analyzer and ran the work book, now appeared only three variables again missed variable customer.
Yunus does any missed n the procedure what i did.
It is helped what Chris was answered.

Transport of BPS planning area (variables) without transp. all pl. levels

Hi!
Can anybody advice me, how to transport new variables which I have created to a planning area, without transporting all planning levels which belong to it?
I transported a few planning levels that include the new variables I created to the planning area. As a result, the planning levels are transported but the new variables are missing. I don´t want to transport the whole planning area, since it contains a development which is not ready yet. Can I transport the missing variables with SE15 (how?) or is there some other way to do it?
Grateful for any help,
Sari

Sari,
Please execute program UPC_TRANSPORT_BPS_ALL and transport your variables without transporting any level or area.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Variables not seen in query properties

Dear friends,
I have a question as below,
I have 10 variables in a report and i have to change the order of this variables. for this when i go to query properties I dont see 2 variables of currency conversion.
Is there any other place where i can find these two missing variables in the report or any other alternate to fix my issue.
Cheers
Nitu

Hello -
I believe I am having the same issue. I am using a currency conversion type that is set up with variables for currency unit, exchange rate type and date. The 3 variables show up on the variable screen but they seem to be inserted amongst my regular characteristic variables with no apparent logical order. It does not appear to be alphabetical by technical name or description.
In Query Properties -> Variable Sequence Tab, they are not listed with the regular variables which I can reorder using this tab.
I would like to be able to sequence all of the variables -- including those displayed on the variable screen because of the currency conversion type.
Thank you -
Ann

Hi,
according to what mentioned in the docs,
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/html/B25947_01/bcquerying009.htm#sm0101
the error is caused by the missing variable value. Does one of the print statements produce a result ? Is the exception thrown in the line of
vo.executeQuery();
or
System.out.println(vo.getEstimatedRowCount());

[DW 8.02 + PHP] how to use variables in advanced SQL queries

Hi all,
I can't find a way to use variables in an SQL query after
updating
dreamweaver 8.02.
I always get error messages that says: 'missing variable
type:myvariablename', undefined#myvariablename... and so on.
What is the correct way to use variables?
I usually set a variable in a PHP statement (example: <?
$today=date('Y-m-d'); ?>)
and then I compare this variable in the SQL query.
What is the correct syntax for variable in DW 8.02 in
advanced SQL
queries?
TIA

InterAKT released a new version of Kollection to cope with
the 8.0.2
changes. AFAIK, you should be able to download the updated
version from
your InterAKT account area.
