Query with characteristics and NO Key figures

Hi Everyone,
I need to create a query with 3 char ... customer segment, customer type, climate zone. All are characteristics and there are no key figures.
I went through the forum reading similar posts but couldn't figure out the best way.
It can be done using Replacement path, Create formula variable with replacement path of your characteristic. Some posts also talked about writing some code.
Like to know the best way of making this query.
Can you please give me step by step procedure.
Thanks,
Kumar.

I thought, if there are no key figures the query designer might give an error while saving, like "no key figures defined" or something like that. Thats why I came up with the question.
I still have to document the detail requirement of user and he is not available. So just figuring out all the possibilities.

  • Multi provider objects and restricted key figure definition

    I have the following scenario:
    1. I have a multi provider which is used as a template to build a second multiprovider the difference being one of the part provider cubes is replaced by a new cube
    2. There is a query built off the original multi provider which consists of a restricted key figure.  The definition of the restricted key figure is as follows
        Characteristic 1 - restricted to records with value 'A'
        Characteristic 2 - restricted to records with value 'Blue'
        Key Figure - Total Amount
    3. If I go to the original multiprovider and look at how the characteristics are identified and the key figure assigned the details are as follows
         Characteristic 1 - identified from all part providers including the part provider to be replaced
        Characteristic 2 - identified from all part providers including the part provider to be replaced
        Total Amount - assigned from two part providers (which are also involved in the identification of   Characteristic 1 and 2)  not including the part provider to be replaced
    4. In the new multi provider the details are as follows
    Characteristic 1 - identified from all part providers excluding the replacement part provider
        Characteristic 2 - identified from all part providers excluding the replacement part provider
        Total Amount - assigned from two part providers (which are also involved in the identification of   Characteristic 1 and 2)  not including the part provider to be replaced
    My thoughts are that it does not matter that Characteristic 1 and 2 cannot be identified from the new part provider since as long as the two part providers which are used to assign Total Amount are available in the new multi provider the values shown from the restricted key figure will be the same.  Is this correct? Thanks

    Hi,
    Yes this is correct. As long as you are reporting on Total Amount, the replacement cube will not make a difference because you never identified total amount from it. Did you face any issues?

  • How to search in BI 7.1 query designer for the required key figures & chars

    Hi All,
         Can anyone plz tell me how to search in BI 7.1 query designer for the required key figures & characteristics. I have the query being built on a multiprovider which has many cubes.
    So, i have a huge list of key figures and characteristics. I am not able to search for the required one by the name or the technical name.
    How can we search and pick the required object from the enormous list of the Mutliprovider in the Bex Query Designer??
    Thanks
    Phani

    There is not a search feature available. You have to do an educated guess under what dimension your infoobject could be and select.

  • "new selection", restricted key figure and basic key figure

    Hi,
    I have a test report and i have a basic keyfigure "ZRevenue" and "restricted key figure"(its defined over "ZRevenue") and
    a "new selection"(its defined over "ZRevenue").
    Now that i have "material number" and "material color" and "request id" in the rows. ("Material color" is a navigational attribute of material number).
    In the column level i have a basic key figure  "ZRevenue" and "restricted key figure"(its defined over "ZRevenue")  and
    a "new selection"(its defined over "ZRevenue") .
    In a "restricted key figure" or "new selection", we can include a basic key figure or new formula or calculated key figure or an already restricted key figure into it, then we restrict it, with one or more characteristic values. In the report output we get KF values only for those characteristic values, with which it has been restricted. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
    Initially i restricted the "new selection" (with material number 1 to 3) and "restricted key figure" (with material number 1 to 4).
    In the cube i have material numbers 1 to 11. Now all the values were displayed from 1 to 11, but for the
    "new selection" (with material number 1 to 3) and "restricted key figure" (with material number 1 to 4) i got values only for 1 to 3 and values for 1 to 4 respectively. This is as expected and is working fine.
    Now i tried to restrict the basic keyfigure  "ZRevenue" with material number 1, the output was only until the material number 4 (this is the greatest value of the material number defined over the "restricted key figure").
    Then i tried to restrict the "new selection" (with material number 1 to 9) , then the output was from 1 to 9 material numbers.
    If i remove the restriction over the basic keyfigure  "ZRevenue" , then i get all the material numbers from 1 to 11, for "new selection" i get values for the material number 1 to 9 and for "restricted key figure" i get values for the material numbers 1 to 4.
    Can some one explain me why this behavior?

    Hi,
    This is where set theory comes in handy
    So what you have is a basic KF (BKF), a selection (SEL), and an RKF.
    When producing an output, BEx seems to be looking for the union of all the restrictions you place on these. So when your BKF is not restricted, the union comes out to everything in the underlying DSO. When you restrict the BKF for material number 1, this is how the restrictions might have been processed internally
    BKF: Restriction on material 1
    RKF: Restriction on material 1-4
    SEL: Restriction on 1-3
    Union of these three: 1-4
    When you remove the BKF restriction and make SEL restricted to 9, this is how it plays out
    BKF: NO Restriction on material
    SEL: Restriction on material 1-9
    RKF: Restriction on 1-4
    Union of these three: everything.
    As the union ends up giving you everything, you get 11 records. However, as SEL is restricted for 1-9, the SEL will have values for the materials 1-9. Likewise for RKF, you'll get values only for materials 1-4. Hope this clears things up!

  • Crystal reports on SAP-BW 3.5 query - problem w. properties of key figures

    Dear experts,
    Creating a crystal report on a SAP-BW 3.5 query we have the following problem:
    In SAP-BW query we defined a restricted key figure with property
    'Calculate single value as Ranked list (olympic)'.
    Within SAP-BW it works correctly; in Crystal Reports we see the
    key figure without the defined property.
    Example
    SAP-BW
    Customer     Revenue 
    4711            1
    4812            2
    4913            3
    Crystal Reprts
    Customer     Revenue 
    4711            500 EUR
    4812            300 EUR
    4913            100 EUR
    Could anyone give us an advice to solve this?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

  • Report on hierarchy with different levels for key figures

    Within 1 BEx query report, is there a way to report on a hierarchy where one key figure is at level 6 and another key figure at level 5? Level 6 being the lowest leaf node. That is the key figure at the level 5 wouldn't have data at level 6 aggregated or summed up to level 5. Doesn't seem possible because how would the data be modeled in the IC but has this ever been done?

    This could be easily done at the query level. If you are using 7.x query designer drag the key fig you want at level 1 (top) first. Then drag the key figure you want at level 2 and drop on the level 1 key fig. Now drag and drop level 3 key fig on level 2 key fig. This way you can create a sort of hierarchy for key fig, but the lower level key figures would not be aggregated to the upper level key figures.
    If you use 3.x query designer, you have to use level up and level down options after right clicking on the key figure. Place all your key fig (all levels) in the columns. now right click on the level 2 key fig and choose level down option. right click on the level 3 key figure and choose level down twice.

  • Sql query with conditions and calculations???

    Hi,
    how I can build a query with conditions and calculations?
    E.g. I've got this table
    Start          | End     |     Working Place     |     Mandatory
    01-JAN-13 | 11-JAN-13 |     Office           |          1
    14-JAN-13 | 25-JAN-13 |     Home Office      |     0
    04-MRZ-13| 15-MRZ-13 |     Office           |          0
    11-FEB-13 | 22-FEB-13 |     Office           |          1
    Now if column working place=Office and column mandatory=0
    the new column "price" has to calculate: (End-Start)* $25.00
    and if working place=Office and column mandatory=1
    the "price" column has to calculate: (End-Start)* $20.60
    else $0.00
    I tried it with the case statement but I didn't know how
    to calculate my values and display it to the virtual column "price".
    Something like
    case
    when Working_Place = 'Office' and Mandatory=1
         then ...
    else '0.00'
    end as PRICE
    Or is it not possible?
