thanks a lot

Hi Mike,
I don't think there is much hope in this area. There was another post on this topic that you can look at:

URGENT: Not seeing the variable Pop-up for Button , on web template in WAD

Hi gurus,
In IP I have a standard plan function for 'Copy', which has a few variables defined on the funciton itself (as to be changed):
Version from:
Version to:
Order from:
Order To:
Fiscal year from:
Fiscal year to:
All of the above variable are created with the following parameters:
Variable input: Optional (have also tried madantory)
Ready for input: is flagged.
Variable represents: Single value.
No default entry.
No personalized data.
Now in WAD, I create a button group for this function by selecting the Command, 'Executing Planning Function (simple)', manually entering my plan function technical name next to 'Command specific parameters', and selecting the dataprovider created for the filter I created in IP, and finally flagging the 'Display variable' button.
The problem is, on the web template the variable screen does not appear when I click on the function button. It executes the function in the background without giving me the pop-up for variable selection. And obviously since the variables have no default values, nothing is processesed.
I've tried this with planning sequence instead, and still wont give me the variable pop-up screen..
I've actually explicitlet entered the variables on the 'Parameters for Command screen', the same screen where you enter the filter for databinding and well as the function.
It still wont work (no variable pop-up screen).
Is this issue related to the support pack. We're on SP12 right now?
If not, do any of you gurus have any ideas? Big points will be rewarded for this.
Thanks

In the parameterization of the command, there is an option 'show variable screen'. I am not sure if you have mentioned this clearly, but have you checked this option?

Selection Variables / Name of the Variable in a Variant

Hi,
I am trying to replicate / create the same variant from PRD back to DEV.
But in PRD for the variant, there are values for attributes. (Selection Variable is having T and D)
Number of variables are available for Name of the variable (f4 values)
But these values are not available for the same variant in DEV.
How can i bring the values for selection variables and name of the variables in DEV.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Ravi

Ravi,
you have to include the variant into a transport request than you can transport to the other system. In general, variants not transported automatically when you create a program, you have to include the variant into the request if you want to use in another system also.
You can do this by:
SE38 --> Variants --> Utilities --> Transport request

Currency Conversion Variable is showing the Technical name of the variable.

Hi friends,
We are using currency conversion Variable in our querie, it was showing the description of the variable until yesterday.
Somehow something has changed and suddenly its showing up the Technical Name inteasd of Description. This is happening not only to one variable but for many of them.
Can someone pls guide me how to rectify this?
Your help verymuch appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

We had the same problem. Unfortunately this setting only seems to be available for a query view. We were using web reporting anyway so we just converted the dataprovider to be a query view where this setting had been made. It's a bit ugly but it worked.

Is there anyway to edit the names of the Variables/Tags listed in the .IAK file

I have an .IAK file that has several (about 130) different fieldpoint devices in it and each device has about 90 variables names listed. I have modified all the names in order to shorten them and standardize/nomalize the variable names. I would like to be able to just rename the variables in the IAK file, instead of going to each device, connect, 'find devices' in MAX, Save the IAK File (which takes about 10min each) and then drive to the next device and repeat the process 130 times. I've seen programs that let you view the IAK file, just wondering if the IAK can be edited programmatically.

The reason is the IAK file has ALL 130+ fieldpoint devices listed, with approx 85 tags per FP, and I have to get the tag information from each site, then I have to copy that file to the server and reload the server. If (like what happened yesterday) there is a problem saving the .IAK file or the .IAK file gets corrupted, I have to go back to ALL 130+ FP devices and get the information again. Also, with that many FP stations in the IAK file, it takes a considerable amount of time per save (approx 10min). On the server, I get the data from these FP devices through OPC that uses the .IAK file. It's really not an idea situation, but it's what I have to work with.
If it can't be done, it can't be done. I would think that the file has to be saved in some format, granted probably some proprietary NI format, but if I knew the format, I could write a program to edit it, unless it's also compressed in some propritary NI format.

Getting name of the variable?

Hi, Is there any way to get the name of the defined variable ?
for example
var description:String = "Some description";
var variableName = getVariableName(description);
trace(variableName); // output = "description"
Thanks

you can retrieve the xmllist of variables (string or otherwise), from any object (eg, the current timeline) using the following function. each list item has a type property and name property:
function variableF(o:Object):XMLList{
return describeType(o).variable;

How can i find name of the variable used in the program and assign to a str

double width= .333;
        int i;
        for (i = 0; i <=2; i ++){
            segment[i] = i+1;
        }is a bit of code...Is there anyway using which I can find out the variable names and assign them to string variables so that i can match them with another table ....
That is I want the "width", "segment[0]", "segment[1]" and "segment[2]"...
pls help...

I am trying to find out the variable names in the program so that they can be matched against a given table for availability. I want to do that so that i can send the name, its type and value as a data packet to another node...I am not familiar with this...pls..would you give me a sample code

Change name in the Authorization pop up

I have recently bought a new MacBook Pro and I'm migrated everything from my old computer onto it. This has worked perfectly apart from one thing.
When I first set up the new computer, I didn't migrate straight away because I was still waiting for a firewire cable. So I created a new account called "Tom Irving". Now that I've migrated, I've deleted that account and it's home folder and everything.
The account on the old computer was just called "Tom". This is what I've now got set up as the account on the new one.
This works fine permissions wise, and everything is how it should be apart from this:
When I need to change something, say in the System Preferences, I have to click the little lock sign, and up pops a dialog asking for my password. The default name in this dialog, however, isn't "Tom", it's "Tom Irving". That account no longer exists.
Is there a way to change "Tom Irving" appearing into just "Tom"?
Thanks,
Tom

this is quite strange. I've never seen this. the name that should show up in such popups is the full name of the current user if the current user is admin. are you sure it's just Tom? go to system preferences->accounts. what's listed as Full name there? try changing it to something else. does the name in the popup change too?

Can we hide column in a query depending upon the variable selected

Hi all,
let us say my report have 10 column.
now i am giving user option to select the values (let us say 'a' or 'b')
columns must be displayed depending upon the value selected by user ..
for example if user has selected 'a' then first five columns should be displayed..and if user has selected 'b' last five column should be displayed..(it will be OK even if we can hide the columns depending upon the selection )
Is it possible in BEx...please let me know

I did it sometime back. A bit complicated process.
Create an infoobject, manually enter the values "keyfig1" and "keyfig2".
Include this infoobject in the filters and restrict it using a "ready for input" variable.
Now create two formula variables.
Write a customer exit such that when you select "keyfig1", first formula variable's value should be set to 1 and other one's to 0.
Then in the query create two calculated key figures, multiply both with the formula variable. Also supress column (all active value == 0).
Then it will show the key figure which you have selected.

How to find out query name in customer exit for variables

We use the same customer exit variable in different queries. In the customer exit we want to find out, which query has called the customer exit. With the technical query name we want to read a master data table entry.
e.g. If we come from query ZG1_TEST1 we want to use selection sel1
Query name | selection
ZG1_TEST1 | sel1
ZG1_TEST2 | sel2
How can we find out the query name in the customer exit for variables?
Thanks for your help,
Evi

Hi Evi,
check out the structure I_S_RKB1D in your exit. It contains the query.

BW User Exit - Code in function of the query name

Hi,
I would like to create an user exit code which execute a algorithm different in function of the query executed. do you know in which variable is store the technical name of the query.
CASE query
    WHEN 'Z_ZAPO_001'.
       V1 = 1
    WHEN 'Z_ZAPO_002'.
      V1 = 2    WHEN '10' OR '11' OR '12'.
ENDCASE.

Yaroslav,
I_S_RKB1D-COMPID will never be filled for authorization user-exits (I_STEP = 0). Don't ask my why, I once raised this question to OSS and they replied it was never foreseen to work with authorization user-exits. God knows why, it's very unlogical and it wouldn't cost them a lot of work to get it working...
I could solve this problem by applying a little trick. In our queries we included a user-exit keydate variable. This will push the user-exit first in I_STEP = 1 mode where I_S_RKB1D-COMPID is filled. Then save the query name by exporting it to the ABAP-memory. Afterwards, the user exit with code for I_STEP = 0 will be processed and then you can import the query name from the ABAP memory.
I agree it sounds a little bit tricky but there is no better option I'm affraid.

How to get the query name in runtime?

Hi,
I have a variable which is used in several queries.
How can I figure out which query is using the variable?
can anyone help?
thanks and regards

HI,
thanks for your qickly reply.
Perhaps I should decribe my situation more clearly.
I m trying to retrict the F4 seach help values depending on the calling query.
Example: Qurey A and B both have the variable V
if A is running, the search help should give the values 1,2,3 back
if B is running, the search help should give the values 4,5,6 back.
There is a BADI (RSR_VARIABLE_F4_RESTRICT_BADI) that should restrict the search help values, but the button can not call the BADI.
So I m trying to use the META DATA READ CLASS to restrict the values on the info object level when the varial is used by a query.
The function modul RRM_SV_VAR_WHERE_USED_LIST_GET can give me the list of qurey name which has the variable, but can not tell me which one is calling the variable at run time.
My question is actually how I can figure out which query IS USING the variable in RUNTIME.
Thanks and Regards
