Problems using virtual key figures

Hi experts,
I have got 2 questions regarding virtual key figures, by using the OLAP BADI
1. Is there a chance to get the variable values out of the variable selection screen in the BADI implemtentation? If so, how?.
2. In the compute method the assign does not work because the Attributes (p_kyf_ZIMCREDAY, p_cha_0material,p_cha_0calday) are 0 all the time.
How does the attribute get a correct assignment to a component name? See my coding of the define and compute method below.
Thanks and Regards, Mario
IF_EX_RSR_OLAP_BADI~DEFINE
DATA: l_s_chanm TYPE rrke_s_chanm,
l_kyfnm TYPE rsd_kyfnm.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
<l_s_chanm> TYPE rrke_s_chanm.
CASE i_s_rkb1d-infocube.
WHEN 'ZD_IMC001'.
l_s_chanm-chanm = '0MATERIAL'.
l_s_chanm-mode = rrke_c_mode-read.
APPEND l_s_chanm TO c_t_chanm.
l_s_chanm-chanm = '0CALDAY'.
l_s_chanm-mode = rrke_c_mode-read.
APPEND l_s_chanm TO c_t_chanm.
APPEND 'ZIMCREDAY' TO c_t_kyfnm.
ENDCASE.
IF_EX_RSR_OLAP_BADI~COMPUTE
FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs_ZIMCREDAY> TYPE ANY.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs_material> TYPE ANY.
FIELD-SYMBOLS : <fs_calday> TYPE ANY.
ASSIGN COMPONENT p_kyf_ZIMCREDAY OF STRUCTURE c_s_data
TO <fs_ZIMCREDAY>.
ASSIGN COMPONENT p_cha_0material OF STRUCTURE c_s_data "p_cha_0material
TO <fs_material>.
ASSIGN COMPONENT p_cha_0calday OF STRUCTURE c_s_data "p_cha_0calday
TO <fs_calday>.

Regarding 1.
I checked in debugging the variable I_TH_SFC in the initialize method, but there is no information regarding the selections in the variable popup.
Can you please explain in detail how to access the variable values.
Regarding 2.
I changed l_s_chanm-mode to rrke_c_mode-no_selection according to your recommendation.
Unfortunately it´s still the same. The attributes still does have the value 0. Therefore the assign does not work correct.
The attributes are defined with type i. But the component names are like 'K____132'. Is this the cause of the problem?
Thanks, Mario

Using Virtual Key Figures/ Characteristics is possible to use in InfoSets

Hi All,
Is it possible Using Virtual Key Figures/ Characteristics is possible to use in InfoSets?
I have tried all the possibilities using the BADI implementation RSR_OLAP_BADI without success.
The VKF / Characteristics works fine when it is being used with a query based on the ODS however it is not populated when i am using the infoset. Moreover i have used the code for InfoSet as well it is not working.
I would appreciate any help in this regard.
Regards
Noor

Hi PV,
r u sure about that, as i have tried all sort of permutation and combinations for using the same in RSR_OLAP_BADI without any luck.
I have the got felling about the same however if you look into the following SAP note it puts me into doubt.
Note 657690 - Virtual characteristics and key figures in InfoSets
Note 618738 - Virtual characteristics or key figures and InfoSets.
It describe about using the RSR00002.
Many thanks for the information.

Calculating count of orders using virtual key figures

Hi All,
In my report, i need a counter for the number of distinct orders.
1ROWCOUNT didnt work for me as i want the count of distinct orders alone.
I am planning to use virtual key figure for this..
However, i donno how to code this in ZXRSRU02 and ZXRSRZZZ.
Any help on this would be great!!
Thanks!
- Arun KK

Shana,
I dont understand your question.
I'll give an eg.
this is how the cube is.
Order | Desc | Location
101 |   'X' | loc01
101 |   'X' | loc02
102 |   'Y' | loc01
103 |   'Z' | loc01
102 |   'Y' | loc02
in the report, i need the o/p to be.
Order | Desc | count
101 |   'X' | 1
102 |   'Y' | 1
103 |   'Z' | 1
i cant use 1rowcount as that counts each row and not the service orders.
Hope this answers your question.
Please let me know if there is a solution for this.
Thanks!

Problem with virtual Key Figure in a query

Hi Experts,
I would like to share my problem with the virtual key figure in a query:
I have a query with a virtual key figure and when I eject the query by analyzer, the result sometimes is displayed and sometimes is not displayed (is equal to 0), with the same initials values. And when I eject the query by RSRT always display the result for the virtual key figure.
Why don't always display the result?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I think that the problem is the level of support package. We have BI AddOn 7.X (based on 7.20) support package 0.
What do you think?

Subject : Problem with Virtual key figures for one scenario.

Hi Gurus,
I have implemented Virtual Keyfigures for my Bex report and it is working perfectly bUt for one scenario.
If i give PLANT and MATERIALS in the selection , The report calaculates the Virtual
keyfigure value correctly But if i give Only PLANT
and NO Materials ( A single plant can have 700 materials also!!), The report executes and after sometime
gives me a messsage " Disconnecting from Server"
I executed the report in RSRT . It gives me this error "exception with the type CX_SY_ARITHMETIC_OVERFLOW occurred"
Since the Virtual keyfigure doesnot use Cache memory. Is it restricted by the Physical memory?. How to overcome this
problem?
Please let know if anyone faced this issue and resolved It. Any help or guidance is really appreciated.

Hi Oscar,
Thanks for reply,
How can i know the overflow and how can i use the catch for avoiding the short dump?
thanks in advance.

Problems with creating badi implementation for virtual key figures

Hi,
I'm running BI 7.0 (unicode).
I have been trying to follow this blog to calculate the virtual keyfigure in my infoset - Using Virtual Key Figure and Characteris in an InfoSet
My infoset includes 1 infocube, and 3 master data infoobjects. I have created everything the blog was referring to, and activated fine. However, it seems that when the field symbols are assigned from the c_s_data structure, they do not get referenced correctly, so that no correct memory area is assigned and instead the whole c_s_data structure is assigned to the field symbol, which prevents me from referencing the right mem area correctly.
For example, in this statement
ASSIGN COMPONENT P_CHA_ZMYINFOSET___F120 OF STRUCTURE c_s_data
TO <fs_ZMYINFOSET___F120>.
the component p_cha_zmyinfoset___F120 of c_s_data supposed to be assigned to the field symbol (point to the correct place in structure c_s_data). In other words when this statement is executed, the program looks at structure c_s_data, finds the component zmyinfoset___F120 in it, and assignes the position of that component in the structure to the field symbol, so that it could be referenced in the code. However, the correct assignment does not happen.
When I debug the code and view the structure c_s_data, I can never find any component with any of the names I can find in my BEX query like ZMYINFOSET___F120. All I see are the components that are named like these: Z____5179 (C_S_DATA-Z____5179), C_S_DATA-S____5150, etc. I see the correct values, but components all have weired names like that. I thought in Infosets the components are named in the following fashion: INFOSETNAME___FXXX which you can see from your BEX query designer. Why is this happening? Why don't I see the correct names in the c_s_data structure? If instead I try to assign those components with their weired names directly, I still get incorrect assignment.
what am I doing wrong?
I was reading abap help on this statement: assign COMPONENT comp OF STRUCTURE struc
and the following I found:
With this expression for mem_area, the memory area of a component comp of a structure struc is assigned to the field symbol. While the structure struc is specified directly, a data object must be specified for comp. The evaluation depends on the data type of comp:
If the field comp has a non-text, elementary type, the content is converted to the type i and interpreted as a position of the component in the structure. if the value for comp is 0, the storage area of the entire structure is assigned to the field symbol.
From what it says above, my value for comp is always 0, so that the entire structure is always assigned to my field symbol instead of a specific position in that structure.
please let me know what is wrong here.
thanks.

Virtual Key Figure ( Currency Problem)

Hi All,
I am facing one problem in virtual key figure using BADI. Need your help...
Scenario: I have a DSO with all many fields. Requirement is to add one more VKF in DSO to get specific period balance of a GL from 0FIGL_O10 DSO and then display it as a column in Bex report. Added VKF is of type amount and unit/currency 0CURRENCY.

Virtual Key Figures using RSR_OLAP_BADI

Hi gurus,
We have been using the RSR_OLAP_BADI to generate some virtual key figures for our queries, now we have a problem creating a virtual key figure...
We have got 4 key figures in the query, 1 is a normal KF and the last 3 are virtuals, one of the virtuals uses the normal KF and splits it between the total of the same KF. The point here is that the calculations are not coming ok because the COMPUTE method does not bring the information summarized as the KF is defined, because in the same structure of the query ther are some formulas that have the same KF restricted to another level of information.
If we remove from the query this formulas, the virtual KF works perfect because the normal KF is delivering the information summarized.
The question is... is it normal that this happened or there may be something wrong in our definition?
Thanks and best regards to all!!!

Issue with Virtual Key Figures Using BADI

Hi,
We are populating values for a few virtual key figures in a query over a multiprovider through a BADI implementation(RSR_OLAP_BADI). On execution the VKF fields appear blank in the report.
We tried debugging the methods of BADI by adding Break-Points in specific points. On doing so, we found that the values are properly updated in the 'Field-Symbols' used in the Compute method, but the same values do not appear in the report result and the fields are blank.
Kindly provide any pointers or suggestions.
Thanks.

First check in Technical Information in RSRT , whether the
Virtual Char/Key Fig is Y or N.

Virtual key figures problem?

Hi Gurus,
what is Virtual key figures? at what scenerio you go for that.
please guide me ASAP.
In advance i appreciate you
RK

Hi
Virtual key figures are used when you want to determine the value of a key figure at runtime , the key figure is not populated in the load process ie its value is not stored in the cube. The logic for populating the keyfigures is written in an SAP Exit RSR00002.
Since the values are computed at run time, it affects the query performance if you have too many VKF or too many records in your cube.
There is a how to guide on the steps for working with virual key figures/ characteristics.
To give an example suppose you need an aging report where you want to show how many orders are delayed by 30 days , how many 30 to 60 days and so on based on todays date, So this number needs to change dynamically based on the date the report is run , you could use VKF in this scenario...There might be other ways of doing but just giving an example to explain the concept.

Using Variable values to populate virtual key figure

Hi Gurus,
I want to populate virtual key figure in my report. I am using BADI for this. To populte VKF I want to use the variable values in my calculation. For eg. variable name is ZCAL_MON based on 0CALMONTH. When the user enters some value in this variable say 03.2010 I want to populate VKF for the last 12 months (sum for a period 04.2008 to 03.2009). I have written a customer exit in CMOD for variables but for vkf I am using BADI. Can anyone tell me how do I pass the variable value in populating vkf and also how do I total for the last 12 months?
Utpal

Hi,
Did you find a solution. I'm just looking for the same thing.
best regards..

Use of Key Date in Virtual Key Figure Calculation

I have a virtual key figure whose value depends in part on the key date entered by the user. I have the VKF set up with a dummy calculation, and it is working OK.
How do I refer to the value of the key date in the code that assigns the VKF value?
Thanks,
DP

Found the answer, thanks to another thread:
Function RRS_VAR_VALUE_FROM_MEMORY_GET with I_VNAM equal to the key date variable returns the value of the key date.

Virtual key figure problem

hi all,
i have a virtual key figure that i have to populate data into....this query is off a infoset...the client wants to see the total number of unique records populated into the virtual kf.the user exit has to read records from sales document number and document number and populate the unique ones in th the vkf.say, if the vkf's name is zpop and the infoset is zi_pop, the two ods's that make up this infoset is zods_1 and zods_2....please can u write me an abap code that reads the records and populates only the tot number of unique records into that kf.
thanks in advance

hi
Have you debugged after refreshing?

BEX - Virtual key-figure

Hi gentlemen,
I am facing a problem with a BADI that I created for populating a virtual key figure.
I simply want to read a masterdata table and populate a key figure. When executing the query, a dump occurs with a very explicit explanation. Unfortunately, I don't know how to solve it.
Dump:
You attempted to assign a field to a typed field symbol,
but the field does not have the required type.
Attributes in the BADI:
P_CHA_0PLANT Instance Attribute Private Type I Plant
P_KYF_ZSHPQTEUT Instance Attribute Private Type I Shipment quantity EUT
See below.
Define:
method IF_EX_RSR_OLAP_BADI~DEFINE.
DATA: l_s_chanm like line of c_t_chanm.
DATA: l_kyfnm TYPE rsd_kyfnm.
CASE i_s_rkb1d-infocube.
 WHEN 'ZFM_M01'.
 l_s_chanm-chanm = '0PLANT'.
 l_s_chanm-mode = rrke_c_mode-read.
 APPEND l_s_chanm TO c_t_chanm.
l_kyfnm = 'ZSHPQTEUT'.
APPEND l_kyfnm TO c_t_kyfnm.
endcase.
ENDMETHOD. "if_ex_rsr_olap_badi~define "
Compute:
METHOD if_ex_rsr_olap_badi~compute .
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_ZSHPQTEUT> TYPE /BIC/OIZSHPQTEUT.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_0PLANT> TYPE /BI0/OIPLANT.
ASSIGN COMPONENT P_CHA_0PLANT OF STRUCTURE c_s_data
TO <fs_0PLANT>.
ASSIGN COMPONENT P_KYF_ZSHPQTEUT OF STRUCTURE c_s_data
TO <fs_ZSHPQTEUT>.
SELECT /BIC/ZSHPQTEUT
INTO <fs_ZSHPQTEUT>
UP TO 1 ROWS
FROM /BI0/PPLANT
WHERE PLANT = <fs_0PLANT>.
ENDSELECT.
ENDMETHOD.
Thank you in advance.
Jacques

Hi Jacques,
Please include 2 changes:
1. As suggested by Jen, declare Field Symbols with type ANY.
2. Instead of directly using Field symbol values in the select query, create 2 temporary variables of type string and use them.
After changes the method COMPUTE would look like below:
METHOD if_ex_rsr_olap_badi~compute.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_ZSHPQTEUT> TYPE ANY.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_0PLANT> TYPE ANY.
ASSIGN COMPONENT P_CHA_0PLANT OF STRUCTURE c_s_data
TO <fs_0PLANT>.
ASSIGN COMPONENT P_KYF_ZSHPQTEUT OF STRUCTURE c_s_data
TO <fs_ZSHPQTEUT>.
DATA tp_shpqty type string.
DATA tp_plnt type string.
IF <fs_0PLANT> is ASSIGNED.
tp_plnt = <fs_0PLANT>.
ENDIF.
SELECT SINGLE /BIC/ZSHPQTEUT
INTO tp_shpqty
FROM /BI0/PPLANT
WHERE PLANT = tp_plnt.
IF <fs_ZSHPQTEUT> is ASSIGNED.
<fs_ZSHPQTEUT> = tp_shpqty.
ENDIF.
ENDMETHOD.

Virtual Key Figures in RSR_OLAP_BADI COMPUTE Method not recalculated

Hi,
Please clarify why is the COMPUTE METHOD of RSR_OLAP_BADI not always
triggered or executed.
For instance, my query is drilled down by customer and
material by default. Upon opening the query and after entering
the appropriate selections, the virtual key figures that I have
used in the query are correct .
However, if i make any change to the query and run it in RSRT, the BADi method COMPUTE is not executed.
Is this really the normal behavior of the said BADI? Why is
it unstable?

Hi Rohit,
I have a similar problem the compute method is not trigerring and i am trying to debug it but it is not breaking at all, although when i generate from rsrt it breaks at a breakpoint of define method however i have defined another break at compute method but not breaking.
I am using the infoobject inside the query but and tried to hard code it for testing in the compute method but doesnt seem to be getting executed.
Please help.
Cheers,
Jad
