Reporting filter in Bex

I have cube data such as
Characteristics
ZMAT_SALES (with navigable attribute 0MATSTGRP)
ZSRCDATA
Key Figure
ZKF1
I only want to report on these records in this case
IF (ZMAT_SALES__0MATSTGRP = "#" or "1" AND ZSRCDATA <> "PCAPRF") OR (ZSRCDATA = "PCAPRF")
How can I do this in BEx?
Regards
Snehith

it seems that if you just rectrict you query on ZSRCDATA = "PCAPRF", it should be sufficient.
Let us see what data set you can have
Record No.....ZSRCDATA.....ZMAT_SALES__0MATSTGRP
1....................PCAPRF...........#
2....................PCAPRF...........1
3....................PCAPRF...........2
4....................ABC.................#
5....................ABC.................1
6....................ABC.................2
In you condition IF (ZMAT_SALES__0MATSTGRP = "#" or "1" AND ZSRCDATA "PCAPRF") OR (ZSRCDATA = "PCAPRF")
you have a "AND" statement in first part, because of that the output should be Record No - 1, 2 and 3 according ot your condition.
And if you just restrict the data on ZSRCDATA = "PCAPRF", the output will be the record no - 1,2 and 3 again.
I hope it helps.

Gaurav

How to add filter in Bex report

hi how to add filter in BEx report and what is the difference between filter and free charcteristics.
Regards,
Viren.

Hi Viren,
difference between filter and free characteristics is that free characteristics can be added to drilldown at query runtime. Filter values can not be changed at query runtime.
You can add a filter to a query by placing a characteristic in filter section and restrict the characteristic to certain values. Characteristics in rows / columns / free characteristics section can be restricted to certain values, too.
Best regards,
Björn

Query filter vs report filter

Hi,
when running queries in webi, on a universe that is based on a BW BEx query, we often see a problem when trying to at dimensions in to the query filter pane. This often lead to columns switching place and/or report just showing the technical ID, not text. If we do the same filtering in the report filter pane after the query has run, there is no issue.
When running a query on a universe based on a BEx query, my understanding is that a filter on a dimension (blue object), will be applied after the BEx query has delivered it's result to BO, and then BO/Webi should only keep the records fitting the filter. Why would this obscure the report result? Anybody else had issues with this?
The users are used to adding filters to the query, and not adding filters in the report afterwards, and they are expecting this to work...
Regards,
Øystein

Hi,
To apply filters at two levels:
The query definition u2013 this is the data defined on the Query tab, retrieved from the data source, and returned to the report.
The data displayed in the report u2013 this is a subset of the query definition data that you want to display in a specific version of the report
Filters you apply to the query definition are called query filters. You use query filters to reduce the amount of data retrieved from the data source. Query filters decrease the time it takes to run the report and ensure that only the data relevant to the report users is saved.
Filters you apply to the data displayed in the report are called report filters. Once the report is generated, you or other users can apply report filters to restrict the values displayed in the report table or chart. The values hidden by the report filters are still saved with in the microcube. You can modify the report filters to display different values in the report or remove the report filters to display all the values retrieved from the data source.
Tip
Filtering the query minimizes the size of reports, reduces the time it takes to refresh report data, and ensures that the data the documents contain is relevant to users consulting the reports. Individual users can then filter the displayed report values by applying the report filters relevant to their specific business focus.
All the Best,
Madhu...

Error: Show Details cannot be executed when multiple items are selected in a report filter field or in a slicer

I have connected TABULAR Model to Excel, and in the pivot the filter is on multiple dimensions. When doing the drillthrough action it gives error - Error: Show Details cannot be executed when multiple items are selected in a report filter field or in a slicer
Is there any workaround to this error? so that drillthrough can be done even with multiple selection.

Hi Vikas,
The reason behind the error message requires the knowledge on what happens at the backend. When you perform a drill-through action, a query is sent to Analysis Services. This query is expressed in a query language called Multi-Dimensional Expression (MDX).
Since the MDX language doesnot support drill-through command against a set (collection of tuples) an error is persisted.
For now, there is no workaround as it is a limitation of the underlying language that is generating the query.
When multiple items are selected you lose the ability to drill-down on individual metrics. To resolve you must either:
1. Select a single Item.
2. Select all items.
Hope this helps!
Please mark as Answer if this helps! Thanks, Rajasekhar.

BO BI 4.0: WebI report based on BEx query (OLE DB enabled)

Hi Experts
We are trying to create WEBI reports based on BEx queries, but we are experiencing some issues. We have created two BEx queries og two separate multiproviders and opened them for external use but checking the OLE DB enable checkbox. In WebI we are now only able to use on of the queries as a data source (even though both are OLE DB enabled).
Are there any limitations to which multiproviders that can be used to create BEx queries for WebI reports?
We are using BO BI 4.0 and BW 7.0 SP 5.
Kind regards
Erik

Hi again Henry
We use BW 7.01 Support package 5 (we know it should have been at least 6), SAP GUI 7.20 patch 9, BEx 7.2 patch 6 and BO 4.0 patch 11.
The BW user that is synchronized to BO has almost all rights (almost sap_all). When we log on to BEx directly with the same user we use in BO, we are able to run both BEx queries without any problems. When we then log on to BO (with the same user), we are only able to use on of the queries in WebI.
As you say, we have to following setup:
-     BO users are synchronized from our BW system and when they log on to BO they use the SAP authentication.
-     The user that is synchronized from BW has been added to the Administrator group in BO
-     The OLAP connection is set to SSO so that the authorization in the BW system is used.
It is really strange that we are not able to use on of our multi providers in BW in WebI. As you say, we just need to try debugging with changing the authorization concept, changing the OLAP connection setup and so on to see if that helpsu2026
Kind regards
Erik

VERY STRANGE Interactive Report Filter Error

I have a very interesting problem happening with an interactive report in my APEX application. The report runs just fine and has been in use for about 6 months. Just recently, the users have begun to run into problems when using the filter capability within the report. There is a specific column heading (RH Analyst) that they typically click on and select a specific analyst name (the list contains 10 entries). Most selections from the filter list work fine. However, when one specific name is chosen, they get the dreaded ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small+* error.
I have been working to narrow the problem down and have found the following:
1. The filter error is related to the content of one specific column (not the one I am filtering on)
2. The column that is causing the error is a CLOB datatype
3. The data in the CLOB column was inserted into the database from a form utilizing an "HTML Editor Standard" type of item
4. The data in the CLOB column was copied and pasted from an email that was being viewed using Outlook 2007
5. If I try to recreate the problem with exactly the same information, but copied and pasted from Outlook 2003, I don't experience the problem.
6. The only people experiencing this problem are people who have upgraded their system from Microsoft Office 2003 to Microsoft Office 2007
7. When I try to load the form with the data that was stored in the database, I get a 404 page not found error. This is the same error that I get if more than 32k of data was saved into the CLOB.
The data pasted into the HTML editor from Outlook 2007 (_this is the data that causes problems_) and saved to the CLOB looks like this when I extract it in SQL Developer

Roel,
Hey there! Hope you enjoyed your time off ;) Thanks for having a look...
Yes, of course I "could" update the functions, but this is NOT something I want to do. I'm one of those people that subscribes to Coding by Contract and the assertion routines at the beginning and end of my subprograms are an important part of that.
This may be a lack of understanding on my part with regards to the order in which Oracle does it's thing - or a bug in Apex... I'm able to duplicate the problem on apex.oracle.com: dmcghan/test/test.
Log into the demo app with admin/dmcghan. The home page has an interactive report, filter the name and you should get the error. When you look at the query you'll see a filter in the where clause that goes against the apex_collections table. This is populated from the post-authentication procedure. Let me know if you have questions.

How to bulid a Crystal report based on Bex query as source

Hi,
I have requirment where the end user wants the query in Crystal.I built a Bex query in Bex query designer.I would like to know how to create crystal report based onthe Bex query.
Thanks,

Hi
The Crystal Reports are integrated with BW such that the query built in BW can be used to bulit Crystal Reports on them.
After launching the Crystal Reports, you will have and option : "Open reprt from BW" whcih will help you in opening the BW Queries and create Crystal Reports.
Also in the Menu there is an optin SAP-->Create New Report from a Query

BOE XI 3.1: Problem with Simple Report Filter.

Hi everyone!.
One requirement that i have in one customer is about the use of simple reports filters, the customer doesn't want to use the input controls.
If i add one simple report filter and save the report, the final user can add other simple report filters, but the problem is that the name "Others" appears with all the variables than i have created to be used in the report.
Is it possible to hide the group "Others"?
Thanks!
Edited by: Jaime Pestaña on Mar 12, 2010 10:26 AM

If I understood you clearly, I think you have few variables created and one set of variable is called Others and you dont want users to see it.
There are couple of things you can do.
First one is to Use Othere filters as constant and it will not appear.
Second you can use others filter at Report level and it will not prompt to users.

Date Filter in BEx Query not applied to Webi Document

Hi
I have a simple BEx Query on 0MATERIAL - with Article (0MATERIAL) and Created On Date (0CREATEDON) characteristics in the Rows and 1ROWCOUNT key figure in the columns.
If I restrict the BEx Query on 0MATERIAL to a single value, only that particular record is returned when I run the query in WebI - which shows Article and Created On Date.
However, if I restrict the BEx Query to a specific 0CREATEDON date, the WebI report ignores this restriction and returns ALL records in the InfoProvider 0MATERIAL.
If I run the BEx Query in the web, only those records with the particular restricted date are returned, so why does the WebI report ignore the BEx Query date restriction? Any ideas where I am going wrong?
Thanks
Anton

Hi Victor
Thanks for the reply. It turns out even after refreshing the universe structure and exporting I had to shut down Webi and reopen it for the changes (date restriction) to take effect.
But thanks for the headsup on that bug/SAP note anyway - it is helpful to know.

Or between prompted columns in report filter

Hi,
If I give an 'Or' between two prompts in the report filter, as below:-
Value Date is prompted
OR Trade Date is prompted
... then the condition does not apply on the report.
I am using dashboard prompts
OBI version is 10.1.3.4.1
Is there a way around this?
thanks,
Gaurav

Hi,
If I hard code in the report filter and use or between the conditions then it works fine.
The prompted filters are not working with 'Or' in between.
It looks like a bug. Can something be done about it?
Using a presenation variable should work, but it will have some other limitations.
thanks,

Htmldb_application array reset based on interactive report filter

Hello
I was searching various forums on this topic and did not find usefull answer. I must be doing something wrong or just do not understand how come that others do not have this problem?? Anyway, here it is.
I have interactive report where first column is checkbox. Using submit process , I perfrom inserts/ deletes in database based on checbox array (htmldb_application). Everything works well untill I do not use filter on one of the columns. Such action results in resizing the report ( so number of rows is re-ordered / changed ). I want to run the same submit process on resized list, but it is not possible, because the array points to different/non-existing rows. I would expect that the array gets "reseted" accrording to the new result list, but it does not??
Example:
I load the page with the report, where I have 10 records. Two of them, row 5 and 7, have in column X value '1'. If I leave the report as is, check checkbox on any line and run submit process, action is succesfull.
Now I change the filter and I will display only rows where column X=1. Report now have 2 rows. I check checkbox on the first one, submit the process, but the arrays refers to row 5 ( the old resultset), which is not present in the report now ??
Can I somehow achieve arrays reset based on the interacitve report filter applied? Or any other solution?
Thanks in advance

 from REF_CUSTOMER_UNIQ big ) r ) r where rownum <= to_number(:APXWS_MAX_ROW_CNT)As you can see, the 'rownum' is gotten in the inner query. I suspect that when you apply a filter, the filter is applied to the outer query. Hence, the rownums will not be as you expect them to be. Instead of using the 'rownum' as the values for checkbox 1 and checkbox 2, I suggest you use a concatenation of
inst_id and customer_cd. In the after submit process you can then just loop through the f01 and f02 arrays , split the concatenated values back into their inst_id and customer_cd components and perform the Insert or Delete.

Interactive Report Filter Problem

Hello,
I ran into a problem with an interactive report today. When the report first loads, no issue. If a filter is added, an error is returned. The error is actually generated by an assertion routine that raises and exception if a NULL value was passed in. Here's a modified/simplified version of the query:
SELECT id,
   name,
   dept,
   emp.year_of_emp(hire_date) AS years_of_employment
FROM emp_table
WHERE id IN (
   SELECT c001
   FROM apex_collections
   WHERE collection_name = 'EMPS_UNDER_MANAGER'
);Again, when the report first loads, no problem. Then when the manager applies, say a filter on dept, an error is raised from the emp.year_of_emp function because a NULL value was passed in.
I know that all emps with an emp id in the collection have a hire_date so I don't feel as though I should have to add another condition in the where clause to filter those out (although that is the work around at this point). Anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this?

Hi,
I went quickly over this:

This should help. it shows you how to prepare the URL of the wanted report. and you can choose button action Redirect to URL.
There is more ... give me one minute :)
