Query Variable - Replacement Path

Hi all,
I would need to fill a query variable (based on calendar week characteristic) with specific list of values. I need all calendar weeks that are present in infocube, but only if key-figure > 0. So I've created a query with cal. weeks in rows and with suppressed zero rows. Output values from query contains exactly what I need.
Than I created a variable (replacement path) with reference to mentioned query. But it seems to me that the variable does not contain all values displayed in the query, but only filtered values (if I use some restriction of cal. week).
Is it possible to achieve this using replacement path at all?
If not I would appreciate any idea or experiences how to accomplish this requirement.
Many thanks,
regards,
Pavel

Hi Pavel, I didn't get your requirement 100% . Still, I would like to tell How Replacement path works.
First of all for the Source query you have given condition to restict the output of the query on particular keyfigure value > 0 ......  Right.
Now on second query, you have created the Characteristic variable with Replacement path....here some important things to look at.
                while creating the variable, select Processing Type as REPLACEMENT PATH, then in the "Replacement path" Tab,  give Replaced variable with.. "Query" ...and at bottom, For QUERY give the query name.
If u want RRI facility from Source Query to Target Query, then u give RRI Connection in T-Code : RSBBS....
...and now when u execute the Second Query, First the first Query will be executed and those filtered values > 0 will be passed to the Second Query's variable input...then the second query will be executed...
But, in your case check once again all settings in Variable in Second Query..and Conditions block in First Query..
It should definitely work...

  • Preselection-variable (replacment-path: replacement with query)

    Hello Expert's
    Can you explain me, how we can set up a pre-query with characteristics and key figures.
    e.g.
    Due the performace reason in the olap process, we have the calculate a range of values before
    in query 1. This query contains characteristics and key figures.
    In the query 2 we've preselection-variable (replacment-path: replacement with query) to query 1.
    My question is, how we can get also the key figures-values from query 1, to continue to use the values for query 2?
    Thanks for feedbacks,
    Regards

    Hi,
    As this is the variable restriction and variable restrictions are not put on key figure values (except RKF). As I know you will not be able to get key figure values using replacemtn path with query.

  • Query Designer - Variables - Replacement Path

    I need a help.
    In one query I need to select some data from the current Period until yesterday.
    In another query I need to select the same data, but from the current Month until yesterday.
    I created 2 restricted key figures:
    SEL_PERIOD restricts 0FISCPER by the variable 0FPER, wich is an exit SAP for current Period.
    SEL_MONTH restricts OCALMONTH by the variable 0CMONTH, wich is an exit SAP for current Month.
    Now in both RKFs I want to restrict 0CALDAY from the beginning of the Period or Month until yesterday.
    I found this variable 0DAT, wich is an exit SAP for current day.
    I'm trying to create an interval variable, type replacement path, with From Value not filled and To Value filled with 0DAT - 1.
    But it doesn't work, Query Designer points that 0DAT is not an allowed source for the target variable.
    And the documents that I searched state that "the target variable must represent a single value" and "the source variable must be input-ready".
    Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can restrict 0CALDAY, for this specification ???
    Thanks in advance.

    I forgot an important point:
    Sometimes I need current Period or Month, in other cases I need the same Period or Month from last Fiscal Year or Calendar Year.
    No problem with 0FISCPER and 0CALMONTH, I can off-set the variables by -12.
    But I would like a help on how to do it with 0CALDAY.
    Example: today is 25.06.2011. In some cases I need to restrict until 24.06.2011, in other cases I need to restrict until 24.06.2010.

    Hi Ceaser,
    This is a generic explanation to your scenario. Please make some changes as per your requirement. Just to give you some idea......................
    We  need to manipulate u201CKey Dateu201D values to achieve required analytics.
    Step 1: As a first step, create a variable on u201CSales Dateu201D (or whichever date is used for Sales Date) field (ZPDATE) with user input. It was meant to capture u201CKey Dateu201D through user entry.
    Step 2: Create a restricted key figure on Sales & restrict it on u201CKey Dateu201D value to get first analytics need i.e. u201CSales on Dayu201D.
    Step 3:Next step was to manipulate the value of u201CKey Dateu201D on which I could restrict u201CSalesu201D (Key Figure) again and again to get other values.
    Step 4: Create a new variable (e.g. ZPUTMNTH) and assigned it to be filled up by Customer Exit. (For simplicity purposes only u201CMonth to Dateu201D value is explained below. Same procedure can be repeated to fulfill other needs. Though in code section, ABAP code is available for almost all the variables)
    Create Variable
    Step 5:  Create one variable (ZPUTMNTH) for u201CMonth to Dateu201D with processing by u201CCustomer Exitu201D. This variable was created on u201CDateu201D characteristics.

  • Exception color with formula variable(replacement path)

    Hello,
    I tried to define exceptions in a query which "from" and "to" values
    are determined by formula variables with replacement path. I checked
    the values of the formula variables and they are right. <b>But <b>the cells
    are not colored</b></b>. When I set the same values in the field "from" and "to" without variables : the colors appear.
    Could help me to resolve this problem please ?
    Catherine Bellec

    Hi Alec,
    You are right, the user exit permits to color the lines.
    But the value of my variable needs to change for each line of the infocube so I can't do this with the user exit RSR00001 because it concerns global variables.
    That's why I used a replacement path on a virtual characteristic.

  • Using Variable Replacement Path with Hierarchies

    Hi,
    I have a requirement where I have two product hierarchies.
    In my report I want the user to be able to select which hierarchy they view at run time.
    I want them to be able to see this hierarchy as a tree,in order for me to do this I first must inlcude one variable to specify which hierarchy i am going to use, then the next Variable2 is populated by Variable1 and allows the users to expand on that hierarchy tree.
    E.g
    At Run Time
    Selection 1: User selects Product Hierarchy1
    Selection 2: Gets automatically populated based on selection 1 to show the product hierarchy tree for this variable.
    I have tried using replacement paths to do this but it does not allow this.
    Any ideaS?
    Thanks

    It finally worked, looks like the reason it was not working was a Query Designer exception issue whihc went with a re-start of Query Designer.
    All good

  • Variable replacement path with another variable

    Hi Guru's
    I'd like to use the functionnality of replacement path from a variable.
    Well, i have variable V_1 which is a basic manual entry variable based on a date infoobject. this variable is not mandatory and accessible.
    And i have the variable V_2 which should be based on V_1 so i created V_2 with a process replacement path and in the replacement tab i put V_1 (i try with the list but i didn't find my V_1)
    But the result is that V_2 is always empty but i have no problem when i check the query
    So do you have any idea ?
    Why i can not see the V_1 in the list of variable from the replacement ?
    I don't want to use by exit. i know that it is possible but i want to use the main simple functionnality for flexibility is maintenance by users.
    Thanks for help
    Cyril

    thanks for your answer,
    svu123, my V_1 variable is of course in a correct status to be used. i made test in first without V_2.
    And when i create V_2 in the first tab i activated correctly the replacement in processing type. if not i can not choose
    the query or variable source and i can not see the list of variables.
    Rakesh, i tried what you answered without results. i check different variables that are available in the list and i have
    lots of different variables (all in ready for input) but i have interval, multiple single values, SAP standard variables my own variable on other fields.
    any other ideas ?

  • Offset in Variable Replacement Path

    Hi gurus,
    I have a 7.0 BI System.
    I can't able to set an offset in a variable replace from query.
    It's normal? Or I must to set some parameters to make it?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    What you exactly mean by variable replace - is it
    Formula variable with processing by replacement path  -If yes, then you can set the offset in the replacement path variable. when we create a replacement path variable then we do get the option for setting the offset. Please check that while creating a replacement path variable.

  • How to get Date Difference in Query with Replacement Path !

    I need to get nr of days between two days. I knew that we can do this by replacement path in the queries. But when Iam trying to use replacement path with
    this two chars and put it in a formula the result is not showing correctly.
    Eg: I have dates Date1, Date 2 and I created two variables calles DateA ,Date B with reference to Date1 and Date2.
    Now Iam creating a formula sayint that (Date2 <> 0) * (Date1 - Date2) ...Here Date2 has sometimes balnk value...Iam getting the values when there is dates for both chars...But if there is one value is blank
    then Iam getting a strange value ....
    can any body send me step by step on how to fix this...
    Thanks

    Hi Sam,
    another important think you have to remember when having aggregated information is to divide the date1 and date2 key figures with the number of lines used in aggregation.
    Remember that date1 (internally) is a numerical value from some initial date which is used as reference. E.g., if the reference date is 01/01/0001  and you have the date 15/01/0001 then key fig. date1 internally stores just the value 14. So if you have something like:
                             date1       date2        diff
    customer1  material1       14          18           4  <- correct
    customer2  material1       14          18           4  <- correct
    and then you make an aggregation by removing customer from your report then you will have the following situation:
                             date1       date2        diff
    material1                  28          36           8    <- wrong
    So, you would have to divide by 2 in the second case. Please try to check the above and proceed accordingly. Let us now if something else weird appears.
    Best regards,

    So the question is can i directly use the same steps mentioned in the link or need to modify because the type is NUMC.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Andrew,
    You can not use the attribute with NUMC in calculation. In order to do the calculatio based on attribute you have to create the attribute as Key Figure type. I mean to say as described in the document.
    NUMC is data type Char string with numbers and you can not do calculation based on Char string.

  • How to feed a query using a variable defined as Replacement Path-Query

    Scenario description : BI NetW 2004S - InfoCube with the following characteristics Customer, OrderDate, OrderYear and the following KeyFigure Number of Pieces.
    Objective: I need a query "QB" that shows how many pieces a set of customers has ordered in the year 2008. The set of customers is defined as all customers that in the previous years (the user can select one or more years) have ordered more than 500 pieces within the same year.
    Implementation: In general terms the idea is to build a query "QB" with the characteristic "Customer"  that is restricted (filtered) using a variable that is fed by another query "QA" (Replacement Path-Query).
    In order to have the selection of customers that for each of previous years (2007, 2006, 2005,...) have ordered more than 500 pieces, in the query "QA":
    - I put OrderYear as filter and defined a variable in order to ask the user which year/s he wants to analyse to define the selection
    - I put Customer and OrderYear in row
    - I put the KeyFigure Number of Pieces in column
    - I've defined the following condition: Number of Pieces > 500 with the option Caracteristic Assignment = All Characteristics in the Drilldown Indipendently
    Now if I run the query "QA" it works correctly showing me all customers that in the selected years have ordered more than 500 pieces within of the same year.
    If I run the query "QB" it shows a correct result only if I enter only one year (for example 2006) in the OrderYear field (coming from the query "QA"); if I enter more than one year (for example 2006 and 2007) the selection of customers showed is not the same defined by the first query "QB": I was expecting to see all customers defined from the first query less all customers that have no ordered any piece in 2008.
    Questions
    1) Why is query "QA" working on a different selection of customers when the user selects more than one year?
    2) Cosidering the scenario and the objective described above do you have any other idea?
    Thanks
    Ciao
    Roberto

    Hi Christophe,
         it's ok for me if I consider the customer only once in the final selection of customers that feeds the final query, this is my objective.
    However as test I've created 2 "input" queries, one related to 2006 and one related to 2007, and then in my destination query I've tried to restrict the customer using 2 variables of type replacement path-query (one attached to the 2006 query and one attached to the 2007 query). Unfortunately when I try to check and save the destination query, Query Designer tells me it is not possible to restrict the characteristic in this way.
    Could you please describe me steps you run in to order to restrict a characteristic using more than one variable of type replacement path-query?
    Thank you in advance for your answer.
    Ciao,

  • Variable with Replacement Path

    Hi, I have two queries. The results of the first one should be the input for the second one. E.g. the first query shows a list of personnel numbers and additional information. These personnel numbers shall be overtaken by the second query. The personnel numbers belong to "Dimensions" in the Query Designer. I alread tried to create a variable with replacement path to the dimension personnel number. I implementet this variable in both the first and the second query (under: "rows"). It`s no "Formular variable" and no "Calculated Key Figure" but a "Characteristic Value Variable" of a Dimension. The problem is now that I cannot execute any of the two queries. The error "Abort the query cannot be released for OLE DB for OLAP. System error in programm CL_RSR_REQUEST and form PREPARE_VQUERIES:INVALID_
    What is my mistake? Thank you in advance! Eve

    Hi Eve,
    It is possible to connect the 2 queries using a Replacement Path characteristic variable. You would need to create the variable on the char whose values you want to pass from Q1 to Q2. The variable will be of type replacement path and you will need to enter the name of Q1 from which it will get the values. Make sure that you include this char in the query definition of Q1 and Q2. In Q2 you will restrict the characteristic using this variable. DO not use this variable (replacement path) in Q1.
    In your query properties check if you have turned on the checkmark for Release for OLE DB for OLAP (3rd tab). If the check mark is there, then remove it.

  • Creating Variable with Replacement Path to get value from ANOTHER Variable

    Hi all,
        Is anyone has created the Variable with Replacement Path to get the value from another User Entry Variable, PLEASE ? 
    First created the User Entry Variable (ZV_X) and it accepts the date range like '01/01/2009 - 01/31/2009'. Next created the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path for which source variable will be ZV_X and we should get the 'FROM Date' (01/01/2009) from the selection (ZV_X) into it (ZV_Y).
    While creating the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path, I didn't find my newly created ZV_X variable in the list of available variables under 'Variable' header in 'Replacement Path' tab and it is causing the error 'Source to replace variable ZV_Y is not defined'. How could I create the Characteristic variable of Replacement Path for my requirement, PLEASE ?
    The following is from help.sap..com:
    Replace with Characteristic Value
    Text and formula variables with the processing type Replacement Path can be replaced with a corresponding characteristic value. In the variable editor, on the General tab page, you specify under Reference Characteristic the characteristic that is to be referenced by the replacement. On the Replacement Path tab page, you can choose whether the variable is replaced with the From or the To Value and with the Key or the Name of the characteristic value. You can also specify the Offset Start and Offset Length for the output.
    Replace with Variable
    Characteristic value variables, hierarchy variables, text variables, and formula variables with the Replacement Path processing type can take their values from a different variable.
    The following prerequisites need to be fulfilled:
    Variable
    ●      The variable must not be input-ready
    ●      The variable must represent a single value
    Source Variable
    ●      The source variable must not be a hierarchy node variable
    ●      The source variable must be input-ready
    ●      The source variable must be available in the query
    ●      The source variable must represent a single value or an interval
    In the variable editor, on the Replacement Path tab page, you specify the source variable from which the value is to be determined. The value is either determined from the key, the external attribute of the key, the description, or the attribute value. You can specify an Offset Start and an Offset Length for the output here. The variable is replaced on the variable screen upon each data release.
    Thanks,
    Venkat.

    Hi Eve,
    It is possible to connect the 2 queries using a Replacement Path characteristic variable. You would need to create the variable on the char whose values you want to pass from Q1 to Q2. The variable will be of type replacement path and you will need to enter the name of Q1 from which it will get the values. Make sure that you include this char in the query definition of Q1 and Q2. In Q2 you will restrict the characteristic using this variable. DO not use this variable (replacement path) in Q1.
    In your query properties check if you have turned on the checkmark for Release for OLE DB for OLAP (3rd tab). If the check mark is there, then remove it.

    Hope this helps...
