OLAP Variable not populated

Hi All,
I have created an OLAP variable which is being used in an infopak. In development, when i go into the infopak and display the result of the variable, i get what am expecting.
However, after I have transported this to QA, when I go into the infopak and try to display the result of the variable i get the following error;
BEx variable YVC00060 could not be evaluated - No
error message.
I have checked the user exit in cmod and the code is there and it is active. Have searched the usual places but cannot find any answers.
thanks Geoff.

Hi Geoffrey,
Could you please explain a little bit more.
How you are using a Bex variable (YVC00060) in Infopack?
Anyway, one thing I could think of is that the Function Module's (EXIT_SAPLRSS0_001) assignment may have become inactive.
Please check the assignment in CMOD.
Regards,
Vikrant.

Smartforms - Variables not populating

I am working on the smartforms, where I am facing a peculiar problem.
I have defined the variable text for the smart form in SO10 (tcode) and provided the relevant reference in the configuration and in the SmartForm.
When I trying to Print Preview the report by selecting runtime variable which has already defiend in SO10, I am not able to see the variables in the report.
Note: The issue is peculiar becasue I have modified the changes in the develoment environment and it is working fine, when moved the transports to the quality environment, it is not populating the variables.
Checked all the objects in the quality and also the transport log went sucessful.
I think this could be environmental issue with respect to printing options.
kindly do the needful

Hi Pavan,
Changes need to be transported to the next layer in the landscape or they need to be created in the Q or P systems directly.
You can tranpsort the texts using standard program RSTXTRAN or you can create them directly in Quality or production.
Even I faced the same Prob and solved by executing the program RSTXTRAN.
Hope this helps.

Row-Wise Variable not populating in Filter

Hi,
I have a row-wise variable that gets a list of units that an employee belongs to (parent/child units).
In answers, I want a prompt with a drop down that shows all of the units the user should be able to access. This works if the user only belongs to one unit. However, if a user is in multiple units, it only shows his "Current" unit in the drop down (just one value).
My prompt query is like this:
SELECT "- Dim_Emp".unit FROM PRS WHERE "- Dim_Emp".unit = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.Units)
From what I understand, the where equals clause should evaluate to a where IN clause in the physical statement, but it doesn't appear to be doing that.
I would really appreciate some help on this. Thanks!
Kevin

Kevin,
In prompts, the drop-down can only contain 1 value. You should use the multi-select option in prompt.
Try that and see if you get a list of all parent/child units

OLAP Variable in DTP - Not able to save the selection

Hi Guru's
We are on BI 7.0 and supportpack 13. I am facing an issue with the OLAP variable in DTP filter . I am not able to save the selection/filter within DTP via OLAP variable. I am able to test the values of the OLAP variable within DTP screen (just like in infopackage) , but when i save it, it does not appear in the selection.
Have any of u faced this issue? I searched for SAP notes , but could not find any matching this issue. Could u please help?
Thanks & regards

Hi Voodi,
Thanks for ur response. But i have checked that too. I am not saying that the value need to appear in selections screen. The filter in DTP is not showing a check tick mark and also no variable is found even though i had saved it and activated the DTP.
I also checked running thisDTP and checked the selections in the header of the monitor. No selection is shown there.
Thanks

How to fail the task sequence if an MDT variable is not populated?

We are deploying Windows 7 using ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 CU3 integrated with MDT 2012 Update 1 using the MDT database locations table to populate the MachineObjectOU MDT variable.
Currently the "Apply Network Settings" task will read the MachineObjectOU variable and add the computer account to the OU returned by the MDT database query. If no value is returned it will not domain join the computer, instead it continues
the task sequence and configures the machine as a workgroup machine.
I would like the task sequence to fail if the MachineObjectOU variable is not populated by the MDT database query instead of continuing as a workgroup build. What is the easiest way to do this?
Thanks!
FP

I agree.
I would write a script that reads the Variable and checks that it has a valid content.
If it doesnt i would return an exitcode from my script and have the TS fail on that

Alert variable not getting populated

Hi ,
I have configured alerts in my PI interface. I am getting alerts messages in my alert inbox(RWB), if there is some application error. But thr container variable ERRORMESSAGE is not getting pupulated. In Moni, I could see the trace where all the variables are populated. But, in my inbox, I am getting alert text empty.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi,
I think you you should use SXMS_ERROR_CAT, SXMS_ERROR_CODE while creating alert category. I am not able to find the variable ERRORMESSAGE in alert category creation.

OLAP Variable with user exit for Infopackage Selection 0fiscper

Hi Frds/ Guru's ,
I have a requirement to use a OLAP Variable for Fiscal year period 0fiscper(Characteristic ) in the Infopackage Selection. . I need to extract the data for Previous Year and Current Year , that is to be automatically selected with a OLAP Variable . The standard one's provided by SAP are not satisfying my requirement,as they are getting populated with SAP Exit and I am not getting the ranges .I am planning to create a variable and use the processing type as Customer Exit and Populate it with ABAP code in respective Enhancement RSR00001.
Even Can I create a ABAP Routine ? Please suggest me which is better to do in respect to performance of dataload , will be really glad if anyone can provide some code for doing this as u might have faced the situation sometime .
I have checked with all the threads available , could get some idea but will be really thankful if u gimme some hints in writing the code , at Exit level and routine level .
Thanks,
Krish

thnx

Urgent::::What is OLAP Variable

Hi Experts,
I want write my own OLAP Variable in data selection in info package.....
So where is the editor where i can write my own logic for a particular OLAP Variable????
Pls share some knowledge of OLAP Variable in BW.
Some good document on OLAp variable....
Thanx in Advance????
Naween

Hi Naween,
Three things need to be done: -
1. In the Query Designer, create a New Variable based on the InfoObject that has the same data type as the value in your infopackage field selection. For example, create a variable for InfoObject 0CALDAY if your selection field is a date. This can be done in any query that has the required InfoObject. The processing of this variable must be 'CUSTOMER EXIT'.
2. In CMOD, create code for this variable. Sample code for the derivation of first and last dates for year based on 0CALDAY is affixed below: -
DATA: f_date LIKE sy-datum,
      f_date2 LIKE sy-datum,
f_date3 LIKE sy-datum.
WHEN 'Z1ST_LST'.
returns first and last day in year
    CLEAR f_date.
    CLEAR f_date2.
    CLEAR f_date3.
    f_date = sy-datum.
    CLEAR l_s_range.
    concatenate f_date+0(4) '0101' into f_date2.
    concatenate f_date+0(4) '1231' into f_date3.
    l_s_range-low = f_date2.
    l_s_range-high = f_date3.
    l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
    l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
3. Select the InfoPackage 'Data Selection' tab, then 'OLAP Variable' and specify the newly created variable. The values are not prepopulated but only populated at runtime. To review the values that will be populated, select the 'Details for Type' button and the 'Check' (glasses) button in the subsequent screen. If the values are not populated with the 'Check' method, you may have to log off and on to the system.
Regards,
Eugene

Use of OLAP variable 0FYTCFP in extracting GL transaction figures

Hi
We load data to cube 0FIGL_C01.
We use the OLAP variable to ensure that we are extracting for the current fiscal year to date, as a full load, with a deletion of overlapping requests in the process chain.
Our fiscal year ends 30 June. My question is around special periods and opening of the new fiscal year while posting is still allowed into the old year e.g. on 15 July both the old year and the new year are open as the year end processing is still underway, and special periods 13-16 might also be in use.
Do I have to wait until the user close the year (a manual step) to then do a "final" run for the year, with the periods specified manually, or is there a way to automate this?
thanks and regards, Lara

Hi Sander
Thanks for the response.
That;s what I have been doing (run manually after the period is closed). It is not ideal, in my mind, because it (1) relies on someone remembering to do it and (2) has to be done repetitively i.e.at least daily until the "old" period is closed, otherwise reports based on the provider will not be accurate. Again, not hard to do, just a pain when everything else is automated.
This particular DataSource is not delta enabled, otherwise I would have used the delta loads.
regards, Lara

Customer Exit Variable not working in BO-Webi Report

Hi All,
I have created a universe based on Bex Query.
Bex query consists of a customer exit variable on Calendar year/month where in it will populate current calendar year month by default while executing the query. It works fine while executing in SAP BI Bex Analyser.
I have created a universe based on the query. For Calender year/Month i got L00, L01, LOV values in universe.
Based on the universe I have created a Webi report. I did not specify calendar year/month as query filters. While directly executing the Webi report, I get the calendar year/month variable screen. But the value for it not populated based on customer Exit code written in BI.
What has to be done to get the customer exit values in variable screen.
Thanks for your understanding.
-- Selva

Since you have customer exit variable in your bex query, it will be like a global filter in your universe.
Execute the webi report and check whether you are getting only current month data.

SAP BI - OLAP variable in DTP unable to read from input ready variable in query

Hello,
Here's the problem:
We have a process chain which is launched in a WAD.
We would like to filter the DTPs in the PC with the values entered in the variable screen of the WAD
I created a variable of type customer exit X which reads the input ready variable Y in CMOD.
Customer exit variable X was placed in the filter of the DTP.
The input ready variable Y in the query contained in the WAD.
I am getting an error that customer exit variable X is getting not value.
Is it possible to read an input ready variable in a customer exit variable placed in a DTP?
Or am I missing a step here?
Please help.
Thanks in advance

Hi Anjalee,
Maybe it would be good to share a bit more information on your scenario and the chosen solution design. I am currently missing the point of triggering a Process Chain using Web Application Designer.
Anyway, I recommend to be careful with using OLAP variables in DTP filters. For sure not all functionality is present, e.g. because the variable pop-up is absent. Your constellation of an input ready variable and a customer-exit variable will only work in the context of a BEx Query and probably not if used in a DTP filter.
Best regards,
Sander

Creation of OLAP Variable for Master data

Dear BW Experts,
How to Create OLAP Variable for Master data in SAP BW? What is the use of OLAP Variable?

The entry column Type (Variable) on the Select Data tabpage indicates a variable time frame in which the data should be requested. The variables are not replaced by concrete values until a request is made. There are eight options:
Variable Data request Description
0
 Yesterday
 (12am 12am)
1
 Last week
 (Monday-Sunday)
2
 Last month
 (1. (First day - last day of previous month)
3
 Last quarter
 (1. (First day - last day of previous quarter)
4
 Last year
 (01. (January 1 Dec 31 of previous year)
5
 User time selection
 See below
6
 ABAP routines
 See below
7
 OLAP variables
 See below
Time selections with the help of the variables 0 to 4.
The variables 0-4 only refer to date fields of the data type DATS.
User time selection
Type 5 gives you a free selection of all fields.
If you select this variable for a field, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type, an additional dialog box appears. In this dialog box you can freely limit the values of the fields and determine the next period value and the number of periods until a repetition.
Variables are placeholders for values and are not replaced by concrete values until a data request is made. You can also use a Variable for selections when requesting data for an InfoObject, if you choose type 7, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type.

OLAP variable in ABAP Routine.

In data selection of Infopackage, I have used a OLAP variable. Is it possible to access the routine for OLAP variable in a ABAP routine?? How to proceed for the same???

Hi,
There are function modules for SAP variables.
- RSVAREXIT_variablename
- RREX_VARIABLE_EXIT (for variables to be processed see include LRREXTOP).
Customized variables with exit can be accessed by FM EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001.
If you are able to transfer mandatory parameters, just implement call of required FM
Into report. If not, you have to copy and adopt coding desired from the FMs.
Hope this helps
Joe

ABAP code for custom OLAP variables

Hi experts,
We have a custom variant set as customer exit that I have just added to an infopackge for the data selection of 0FISCYEAR infoobject via 7-OLAP Variant. When I click on the magnifying glass under the "details for Type" column, the "Use Variable of OLAP Processor" window appears showing the OLAP Variable and the fiscal year variant. When you hit F6 (check) it should process the variant and return data for the ranges. With this variant we are using there is not data being returned (using the SAP exit variants data is returned).
I have gone through the forums and have seen people citing the function module EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001 as this is the user exit which houses such abap code. I have seen the variant inside this module and the code itself, but why is it in the infopackage when I click on check (F6) no data is returned? I am getting the feeling this abap code is only executed for reporting. In this case I want the infopackage to select certain data from R/3 (via the use of OLAP variable with custom code) during the load to the ODS.

Hi Mark,
If you created the custom fiscal year variant as a customer exit type, I doubt that it'll work.
Variant is an auxiliary time characteristic. You cannot create it. You can only add new char values:
BW Customizing Implementation Guide (SPRO tcode) -> Business Information Warehouse -> General BW Settings -> Maintain fiscal year variant.
Though, maybe I misunderstood your requirements.
Best regards,
Eugene
