#MULTIVALUE error

Hi,
I searched the forum for #MULTIVALUE error but didn't get the proper answer.
I'm getting the #MULTIVALUE error in a webI report on top of a BEX Query universe.
Ex: Vendor has multiple Vendor Keys ans it's sales details
Vendor Key Vendor Sales outstanding
#MULTIVALUE V1 1000 2000
How to resolve this issue? tried unchecking 'Avoid Duplicate Row Aggregation' but it doesn't serve the purpose.
Thanks in advance.

  • #Multivalue error in BO webi.

    Hi
    We are having a webi report based on two Bex queries. One query on top of a multiprovider and another on a DSO. The DSO contains rate category information and mutiprovide contains customer deatils. "Rate Category" is the common field between the two sources. So we have a merged dimension on top of Rate Category.
    In the report we need to display the winter and summer rates used for a particular customer based on his recent rate category in seperate cells outside the table. Based on the recent meter reading date, we are picking the value of rate category using the below formulas.
    [recent MR date] = max(meter reading date)  // measure variable
    [recent rate category] = if (meter reading date = recent MR date) then [customer].[rate category] //dimension variable.
    Once the recent rate category is got, using the below formula we are doing a look up on the another bex query(which is built on DSO)
    [recent winter rate] = if (recent rate category = [DSO].[rate category]) then [winter rate] //measure variable.
    Upon using these formulas we are getting #multivalue error.
    Please suggest some solution for the above issue.

    Hi Vinayak Gole,
    Check the following Property.
    Right click on the table and check the  “Avoid duplicate rows aggregation” option.
    Then save it and reopen the report .

  • # Multivalue error in cross tab

    Hi All,
    I am using BO-launch pad 4.1,sp2 Data is from Bex-query using CMC.
    Table: Cross tab
    1)Dimenssion obj: CO-object
    2)Attributs: Co-obj-wbs elemt,costcentr,order
    3)Measure:Budjet aproval overall, Budjet for annul,Actual cost, Actual quantity,planned cost, planned quantity
    when drag i dimension co-obj,attributes and all measures it showing values but when i drag attributes and measures (No need to drag dimension) it is showing in crosstab
    # Multivalues error in all measure fields.
    Can you plz give me suggestions on this.
    Thanks
    Ganesh

    Hello,
    Please check if you have used exception aggregation on measures in the BEx queries. These aggregation might be using some dimensions as reference characteristics. And if that dimensions are not included, you might get these multivalue error.
    Good Day !!

  • Duplicated master data texts causes multivalue error

    Hi All,
    In customer master data i got records like,
    key --> 123 /  text --> Kibele
    key --> 124 /  text --> Kibele
    even i put the customer key into the drill down with texts,  Webi gives multivalue error for all keyfigures and key as below.
    customer key  customer text   keyfigures..
    #MULTIVALUE     Kibele                    #Multivalue
    How to handle this issue?
    thanks in advance.
    Sancho

    let me summarize where i come to:
    1) Sap Note 1353142  is not applicaple for me
    2) Property, avoid duplicated row aggregation is not working for me
    3) Users may drill this dimension any time. I've made an alerter and replaced key and text values, it worked fine, but when users remove or put this dimension into drill it will not work.
    4) At the begining it was having #multivalue for the key also, i have changed customer key in to dimension, therefore when i use key and text together everything working fine.
    Therefore a solution can be to use text and key together. Please can anyone tell me if it is posibble to automatically drill down key, when users dirll down text.

  • Calculated variable throwing #MULTIVALUE error

    I have data of employees entering time by day and time can be billable and non-billable.
    I want to show a column chart where I show the number of employees categorized as per following buckets based on their NB%
    "75% and Above", "50-75%" and "0-50%"
    To achieve this I created a variable (measure) first that calculates the NB% and then created another variable  called NB Group which basically is a set of If, ElseIf conditions that check NB% and assign value as "75% and Above", "50-75%" and "0-50%".
    When I create a report with columns employee, NB% and NB Group, the NB Group value shows up fine. However when I just pull NB Group into a blank report I am getting #MULTIVALUE error.
    I was expecting to see a distinct list of all the NB Groups just like it would for any other dimension and then wanted to add a new column with count of employees and convert that into a chart.
    What am i doing wrong? Is there another approach I should follow?

    Both [Hours] and [Non-Billable Hrs] are report level variables.
    [Hours] = [Hours Entered] + [Hours Missing] (Both of these are coming from the DB/Universe)
    [Non-Billable Hrs] =Sum([Hours]) In ([Employee]) Where ([Hrs Type] = "Non-Billable")
    [NB Group] =If [Non-Billable Hrs]/ Sum([Hours]) > 0.5 Then "50% and Above" Else "0-50%"
    Note: [NB Group] is getting converted to a measure automatically and i am not able to change it. Wondering if this is causing the problem?
    Anyway, as you suggested I tried to take a small data set and get the results per Employee and that came out correctly (top table).
    However, when I remove the employee and try to aggregate I am not getting the expected count.
    Here, Employee =Count([Employee])

  • FormatDate function returning #MULTIVALUE error

    I need to display the raw date returned by a Universe Element in DD-MMM-YYYY format into a cell positioned in the Page Header.
    So used the below formula, which is returning "#MULTIVALUE" error to the cell.
    =FormatDate([Bank Business Date]; "dd-MMM-yyyy"), where [Bank Business Date] is the Date element from the Universe whose data type is "date time"
    However, I am not facing this issue in another report where the data type of the Universe Element is "date"
    Any guidance is appreciated to address my above issue

    Hi Rajeswarudu
    Is this error arising in Webi  or Universe ?
    Make sure the dates should be not overlapped with the same values in a single cell

  • Teradata deski #Multivalue Error

    When refreshing the XIR2+Sp2 deski report with freehand sql data provider with Teradata V2r6 getting #Multivalue error and when editing dataprovider report displays data with out any errors.
    Please Assists

    Hi Sasi,
    Could you please test the following solutions:
    Solution1:
    Use slice and dice to reset all the tables that have #multivalue in it. The only problem with this workaround is they have to do the formatting manually.
    Solution2:
    Also, test the issue by changing the object to dimension if it is a measure or to measure if it is a dimension.

    Hi Govardhan,
    It seems like for "Others" Material Type, there are more than one "Stock Quantity" values.
    Is "Stock Quantity" a measure coming from the query or have you created it at report level? Seems like it is a report variable.
    If yes, please share the formula used. Try using max() function.

  • #MULTIVALUE error in WEBI crosstab

    Hello Experts,
    I am using cross tab in a webi report and I get multivalue error in WEBI
    When I select the table property "Avoid Duplicate row aggregation", I get the below result
    As you can see, that in the first image, the Actual cost is calculated correctly, but the Quantity, is anot able to add up and gives multivalue error.
    Please help resolve.
    Thanks
    Shilpa

    Hi Shilpa,
    You can use any context In or Foreach.
    Ex. =Sum(<Revenue>) In <Year>
          =Sum(<Revenue> In (<Region>,<City>,<Year>) In <Year>)
    Use contexts with Aggregation functions like Sum, Count, Min, Max etc.
    For better understanding of Calculation Context you can go through following document :
    http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir4/en/xi4sp5_ffc_en.pdf
    - Smart measures are the ones which have  projection aggregate set as "Database Delegated" which in turn results measure to be calculated by the database itself.
    To create a Smart measures you can use calculated key figure or restricted key figure.
    In IDT we can achive it by applying projection for measure object.
    Hope this will help....!!!

  • #Multivalue error with merged dimension

    Hello Experts,
    I have a report which has two queries 1 and 2. Query 1 has Year,Month,DB,UserID and NOQ(measure) obejcts. Query 2 has User ID and Username Objects.
    The requirement is to display Username along with UserID and other objects in Query 1.
    I have merged UserID from both queries and the merged object is named as "LANID" and non merged dimensions are created as Detail Objects for year month and DB with associated dimension as LANID.
    If I drag year-detail,month-detail,DB-detail,UserID (from LANID) and Username,I get #MULTIVALUE error in  month column for User IDs which have multiple records for the same year,different months and same DB.
    I came across a similar thread,http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?p=856502 where Dave Rathbun mentions that merged dimensions work only where there is unique record or same level of granularity between two dataproviders which is not the case here.
    Request you to share any workarounds (asap) to achieve this.
    Thanks,
    Sowrabha

    Is there some sort of aggregation occurring that's causing multiple values for one row?
    Check the table settings and select "avoid duplicate row aggregation" and see if that helps.
    Also, with merged dimensions when you're missing individual query objects with merged objects, dimensional context becomes unknown or the wrong context is assumed, so you may be able to clear up the error by adding in a dimensional context (such as [Month-Detail] In ([User ID]).
    I hope that helps,
    Carly

  • #MULTIVALUE error when I add Text in a cell

    Hi,
    There is a funny error occurring in the report.
    I have build this report on Excel sheet. The sheet has ONLY 4 rows,(and it always will have 4 rows).
    Following is the format of the Excel sheet:
    Plant    Division           Comment1           Comment2   Week
    1            10                   A                        E                 4
    2            10                   B                        F                 4
    3            10                   C                        G                4
    1            20                   D                        H                 4
    In the report I have made a connection on the Excel sheet. I have made made the fields Plant,Division,Comment1 and Comment2 as Dimensions and Week as Measure.
    In 4 different cells, with 4 combinations on Plant and Division, I want the following output:
    - Comment1: A
    - Comment2: E
    When I put the formula: =([Comment1] where ([Plant]="1" and [Division]="10")) + ([Comment2] where ([Plant]="1" and [Division]="10"))
    it returns Correct Results.
    But when I add Text values in the formula it returns #MULTIVALUE error:
    Example:        ="- Comment1: "+ ([Comment1] where ([Plant]="1" and [Division]="10"))
    Where am I going wrong?
    Thanks,
    Amrita

    Hi Amrita,
    This is because when you are going only with the formula, it will provide you the value for one cell and blank for other.
    But when you are going with the comments as well, you will get 4 values for this. (one for each row)
    1. -Comment1:
    2. -Comment1:
    3. -Comment1:
    4. -Comment1: A
    So when you are selecting this in a single cell it will throw you #Multivalue error.
    Hope it is understood.

  • #MULTIVALUE error in some cells only

    I am getting #MULTIVALUE error in few cells in a cross-tab report whereas the rest of the cells show correct results. What can be the reason for this.
    My cross tab report consists of : Physician(Dimension) as a Section, Metrics(dimension) in the rows and Month(dimension) as columns.
    The body contains measures- Rate and Scale. Each Metric has got a defined scale of 0-4 based upon a range of the Rate.
    Scale ia a variable created by me as =[Rating Scale] In ([Provider] Where([Rate] Between([Lower Target Pct];[Upper Target Pct]))
    The report looks like:
                        Jan                   Feb                          Mar
                  Rate  Scale
    Metric1  
    Metric2
    When i try to include the Rate of YTD, the data in the Rate shows correct results wheares the Scale certain cells are appropriate but rest of them throughs #MULTIVALUE error.
    I am not able to comprehend whats going wrong in here.
    Can anyone pls resolve this issue.

    Actually , there is no formula for Scale. Its in-built dimension but to get the correct result in the cross-tab( No irregularities are found for teh results in the horizontal and the vertical report format), I created the variable for scale as follows:
    =Scale ForEach(Provider) Where(Rate Between Lower Target AND Upper Target). After using this variable, I got correct results for the monthly/quarterly data wheareas for the YTD it gives #MULTIVLAUE for few cells, where the scale is different for the every months./quarters. It gives correct result where the rate falls in teh same scale zone for all the months/quarters for a certain Metric.
    For .Ex.
    Metric                   Q1                           Q2                  Q3                      YTD
                         Rate     Scale  
    Tetanus        94         3                     92     3                91  3                 93       3
    BRC              71        2                      91      3               98    4               83       #MULTIVALUE
    I am not able to fathom that why its not taking the YTD into consideration even though I created a different variable for the scale of YTD in which I used the YTD(rate) instead of the actual(Rate).
