Query Broadcasting - Event Process Chain

Question

Hello BW Gurus and experts...
I need to broadcast same query to different set of users filtered on company codes. Thought process is to create different broadcast settings for each company code and these would be waiting for event which would be triggered by process chain using "trigger event data change for broadcaster" process type..
I have done following so far:
1) Created new setting for query broadcasting. Given email ID's and check marked "Only upon data change" in the setting. Is this the correct setting so report will be broadcasted after event? I have succesfully executed this setting and report is broadcasted directly manually.
2) Created process chain and included event data trigger process type for broadcaster. I successfully executed this chain. When I saw associated messages for this process type, it said that 0 setting waiting for this trigger for this infoprovider. I have checked infoprovider and it is correct.
3) I went to RSRD_ADMIN and tried to search for mysetting. It exists but under direct scheduling and not under waiting for data change event.
I dont want to use ABAP program to trigger reports as I beleive I cannot filter data if I go with this query..(or can I ??)
Any ideas how to make this setting work. I am on BW 7.0 and it is Query and want to broadcast by email or email burst.
My thinking is that I have not done correct config while creating setting.
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hello,
I think you can achieve this with the concept of interrupts:
1) In your meta chain select two interrupt process types one for the first 6 months and the other for the last 6 months.
2) Now in the maintain mode of interrupt you can define a formula to check the month from sy-datum. Here you have the if else condition, you can use it to trigger the further event or not based on the month condition. ( You have to figure out the formula as i cant help it as i dont have system access presently )
As per Mansi you can go for ABAP but it wont be a Meta Chain concept:
1) Create 2 events for botht the PC, put one in each and schedule them periodically as event triggered
2) Create a simple ABAP program. The logic would be as follows:
          data: month(2) type n.
          month = sy-datum+4(2)
          if month LE '6'.
              CALL FM 'BP_RAISE_EVENT'
                to raise event 1 which will trigger forst PC
          elseif month GT '6' and month LE '12'.
              CALL FM 'BP_RAISE_EVENT'
                to raise event 2 which will trigger second PC
          endif.
3) Schedule this program to run daily in the background.
