Repost Function using Variable is not working

Hello experts!  I am on BW-BPS 3.5.  I have set up a repost function using variables to change a characteristic value for Business Unit.
1. I created 2 variables as Bus.Unit From and Bus.Unit To in the Planning Area. I am not using the variables in my planning level.
2. I entered the variables in the parameter group New Values area for the From and To Values.
3. My goal is when the user executes the Repost Function for a Variable Prompt should appear and have the user select the From Business Unit and To Business Unit.
The Variables are set up as USERVALUE User-Defined Values, Restriction of Values required by user and I have tried with/without option of Input Allowed by User. 
Can you tell me what I am doing wrong, I expected a variable prompt when executing the Repost Function but it does not work.
Thank you,
Teri

Ravi, Thank you for your reply however I contiue to have errors or the execution does not repost (change any value) as noted below.
1. I have 2 Variables in Planning area var1 (from) var2 (to) for the same charateristic which is Business Unit
2. Business Unit is in the level,  on the selection tab to add the variable I can only add 1 variable, So I added var1 (from) to the level. 
3. Parameter group for old and new values - I have Var1 (from), var2 (to)
4. Report Function - are you referring to Reporting variables in BPS? I have set this up as suggested in the "How to Use Reporting Variable in BW-BPS" document.
5. Enter plan data: I receive prompt for VAR1, mandatory. At this point there is no value in Var2.
6. Execute Repost function - I receive an error to "Restrict Var2"
7. If I set variable values and add a value for Var2 I receive an error "The generated data is not contained in the selection condition".
Next I removed VAR1 from my planning level and turned on the option 'Selection in package' for Business Unit. This seems to work well.
What do you recommend?
Thank you,
Teri

  • Windows Server 2012 - Printing using UNC path not working

    Hi,
    I have a problem printing using the printer's UNC path ("\\Server_Name\Printer_Hostname") to work with a web
    app hosted on IIS 8. With a windows forms application the UNC path is working fine and the app prints.
    With
    the web app I receive an error "The data area passed to a system call is tool small". 
    Also,
    in the event viewer under Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> PrintService -> Operational, I receive the error "The print spooler failed to reopen an existing printer connection because it could not read the configuration information
    from the registry key S-1-5-82-1980832875-2702362896-1795126167-3622310632-1152289074\Printers\Connections. The print spooler could not open the registry key. This can occur if the registry key is corrupt or missing, or if the registry recently became unavailable."

    I have contacted IIS forum support.
    Please review the link: http://forums.iis.net/p/1213109/2079229.aspx?Re+Windows+Server+2012+Printing+using+UNC+path+not+working
    Their final response:
    Printing from ASP.NET using System.Drawing.Printing itself is a horrible approach, as this namespace was designed for Windows Forms only. The designers did not take everything about ASP.NET in mind, so any issue can happen. That can answer why the HP model
    works while the Samsung fails, as the HP one just "happens
    to work",
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.printing.printdocument.aspx
    Similarly, System.Printing was designed just for WPF.
    About which printing API to use in ASP.NET/IIS, there is no clear answer so far. Thus, your only resource is Microsoft support, who can perform further analysis (with their dedicate utilities and of course Windows source code) and might come across a solution
    to help you out. This is not a trivial scenario.

  • Where used list is not working for IMG nodes/Document   in solar01

    hi experts
    In template project , we are using same IMG objects in different business processes and subsequent configuration document is attached to each IMG node in configuration tab.  ( like same IMG node  -  define order types used in different business process configuration tab )
    when i use " where used list " from the configuration tab , its not showing the IMG objects  used in different business processes in the same project. whereas its showing the IMG nodes used in the different project.
    I need to find out the same IMG objects/ document  used in the same project using the " Where used list " button.
    Please provide your answers
    Note : we have linked one configuration document to same IMG nodes used in different business. " where used list " also not working for documents as well
    Thanks
    Sol man

    Hello there,
    I just tried some tests and couldn't face any problem with locating other usages for the objects in configuration tab.
    You mentioned a configuration document, so have in mind that the document usage will only be considered if it is a link to the same document and not just a copy.
    e.g:
    Here I created a document in this node:
    Then I added it as a link here:
    and as a copy here:
    When I go back to the original node and use the where-used, it'll only show the original and the link:
    This happens because after copying a document, it is considered as a new one instead of another usage of the original one.
    best regards,

  • Validations using OB28 is not working for GL posting using FB01

    Hi Experts,
    Validations using OB28 for posting using FB01 is not working.
    My requirement is after entering a line items and click post validations should be triggerd.
    i want to block a posting based on document type.
    i have maintained as below..
    Prerequisite.
    ( BKPF-TCODE = 'FB50' OR BKPF-TCODE = 'FB01' ) AND (
    BKPF-BUKRS = '1000' OR BKPF-BUKRS = '0001' OR
    BKPF-BUKRS = '0002' ) AND BKPF-BLART = 'XX'.
    check.
    Used userexit to check sy-ucomm = 'BU'  (for posting).
    entries are maintained in OB28 for relevant company codes.
    it is working for FB50 but not FB01.
    same thing i tried to maintain at header level as well as item level. but it is working only for FB50 but for FB01.
    Please help me.
    Regards.
    Venu.

    Hi Venu,
    Go to GGB0 and expand the navigation till you reach the validation name of line item level and choose menu item *Validation -> Simulate.
    Here you can enter the inputs, those you are entering while doing FB01 and execute it.
    Then in the results, you will have the log for each step of your total validation of line item level.
    Check , whether your questioned STEP's pre requisite is met and check is not fullfilled.
    Accordingly you can make the changes to the STEP.
    This info may help you.

  • Formula variable using Replacement path not working

    Dear All,
    I am using a query to calculate YTD values in the report. I am using a formula variable to calculate the number of months. Formula is
    Month To - Month From+1
    When I am giving the range from 001 to 006 for period in th evariable screen,
    I am gettung Month To as 6 and Month From as 6 with total no . of months as 1.

  • Variable Substitution not working when using ABAP mapping

    Hi all,
    I am doing an IDoc to File scenario.
    Due to some complex mapping requirements, i had to use ABAP mapping for IDoc to File ( IDoc : SHPMNT05)
    There is also one more requirement where in i need to generate the receiver filename dynamically
    i.e the filename is of the form :     
        GW-XYZ-DD/MM/YYYY.csv
    Where
    XYZ is the Shipment number (E1EDT20- TKNUM)
    DD/MM/YYYY is the IDOC creation date in ECC (EDIDC-CREDAT)
    so i used the variable substitution option in receiver file adapter.
    But its not working.
    Is there any limitation for using the variable Substitution, doesnt variable substitution work in case of ABAP mapping?
    Regards,
    Loveena.

    Hi,
      u written ABAP mapping program to get the file name in the required format ,
    is it rt?
    when u test it at message mapping(including ABAP map program)
    u get the the required format of file name in the one of target filed.
    if that was fine, please check the variable substituiton parameters at receiver file adapter.
    i mean, are u maintain variable name and refernece.
    u have to specify the payload information.
    warm regards
    mahesh.

  • Function to get session variable is not working

    I created a report based on the following sql query:
    SELECT EMPNO, ENAME, JOB, MGR, HIREDATE, SAL, COMM, DEPTNO FROM SCOTT.EMP
    WHERE DEPTNO = empcust.current_deptno
    empcust.current_deptno is a function which returns the value of the session variable. However, nothing gets returned. The value of the session variable is not found.
    I know that the session variable is being set b/c i have a procedure that sets it and prints out the assigned.
    This is my code for the current_deptno function. If anyone can help, i'd greatly appreciate it!
    procedure current_deptno
    return VARCHAR2
    as
    v_Session portal.wwsto_api_session;
    v_Return VARCHAR2(20); --DEPT.DEPTNO%TYPE;
    begin
    v_Session := portal.wwsto_api_session.load_session('PORTAL','SESS_EMP');
    v_Return := v_Session.get_attribute_as_varchar2('DEPTNO');
    htp.p('Return session var'||v_Return);
    RETURN(v_Return);
    end;

    Hi Imtiaz,
    Could you verify that the variable has indeed a value? You could check via the Session Manager in the Admin Tool. You could also check the Query Log to verify whether the Initialization Block is working like expected.
    Thanks.

  • Customer Ext Variable is NOT working correctly in the Restricted Key Figure

    Hi all,
       I have created a variable ZVCBLMTH (Period from 01/1996 to Last Month) with reference to
        0CALMONTH  and it will be populated through  Customer Exit and it works fine.
        In the selection for 0CALMONTH, I gave the range as '05/2008' to '08/2008' and this new
        variable  passed the value of  range as '01/1996' to '04/2008' in RSRT.
        The properties of the variable are:
              Type of Variable -  Characteristic, Processing by - Customer Exit, Variable Represents - Interval
              and Variable is - Optional.
              No change in the result after changing the 'Variable is' from Optional to 'Mandatory'.
      This variable is used in Restricted Key Figure to calculate the number of matching records between
       01/1996 & 04/2008 and somehow it is not recognizing this variable and NOT passing the results correctly.
       But, there are records with 0CALMONTH between 01/1996 & 04/2008.   
       How could I test that which value is passed into the Restricted Key Figure for this variable, PLEASE ?
       Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Venkat.

    Hi Clemens Li
    I agreed on your point. When we define the Internal table the type for element EQUNR & QUMNR , we are referring the SAP data element for EQUNR, QMNUM field.
    Our doubt is even though we refer the standard data element, in the ALV display, it shows with leading zeros and also it creates problems in the filtering and in the filter window all values instead of unique nos.
    Hi Abhii
    I have given below the fieldcat coding.
    Friends, can you kindly clarify the above said problems. Since we use SAP ECC 6.0 any notes or patches apply is required. ( this is the basic functionality in ALV, that is my doubt).
        wls_fieldcat-col_pos   = wpv_pos.
        wls_fieldcat-fieldname = wpv_champ.
        wls_fieldcat-tabname   = wlc_tabname.
      wls_fieldcat-seltext_s = wls_fieldcat-seltext_m
        wls_fieldcat-seltext_l = wpv_libelle.
        wls_fieldcat-ddictxt   = 'L'.
        wls_fieldcat-no_out    = wv_no_out.
        APPEND wls_fieldcat TO gt_fieldcat.
    Kind regards,

  • LocalConnection to run a function in another .swf not working....

    I'm trying to establish a LocalConnection so that I can communicate between my navbar & the main page on my website. Here is the code I have so far for the sending and receiving AS3 files, please let me know if you see anything out of the ordinary. The idea is that when you click on one of the icons on the navbar my "book" slides down to the center of the screen on the correct page. I actually have 4 buttons but only included the code I'm using for two in order to make this post shorter. The same idea is used for all four buttons though.
    Sending:
    var sending_lc:LocalConnection;
    sending_lc = new LocalConnection();
    servicesBtn.buttonMode = true;
    portfolioBtn.buttonMode = true;
    function servicesBtnOver(event:MouseEvent):void{
    servicesBtn.gotoAndPlay('over');
    function servicesBtnOut(event:MouseEvent):void{
    servicesBtn.gotoAndPlay('out');
    function servicesBtnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
    sending_lc.send("my_lc_as3", "gotoServicesPage");
    servicesBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, servicesBtnOver);

    if (bookPosition == "up");
            TweenLite.to(book, 2, {y:830});
             var bookPosition == "down";
    The reason I'm keeping track of whether the book is in the "up" or "down" is so that if it's in the down position already it doesn't re-tween back onto the screen. I am new to declaring and using variables; TweenLite; and LocalConnection so there is probably some simple problem with my AS3 code (although no errors are coming up in Flash). Any help would be much appreciated.

    Alright I'm going to fix one problem at a time, starting with the LocalConnection. I've checked several websites for tutorials and examples but cannot seem to get it working properly. I'm just trying to run a simple function over it and can't get it working. Once I can get it working, I'll modify the rest of the code to do what I need. Right now I'm just trying to use it to run a function (slideServicesIn) in a seperate swf. file. I've checked and rechecked the code and just can't figure out why it's not working.
    Here's the sending code:
    import flash.net.LocalConnection;
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    var lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
    function servicesBtnClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
    lc.send("my_lc_as3","slideServicesIn");
    servicesBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, servicesBtnClick);
    Looks pretty simple.... And here's the receiving code:
    import flash.net.LocalConnection;
    var lc:LocalConnection = new LocalConnection();
    lc.connect("my_lc_as3");
    /*If you're not familiar with TweenLite or TweenMax, I can revise the code. I can't get it to work even just to go to a certain frame label. This seems pretty basic if you are even a little familiar with TweenLite/Tweenmax*/
    import com.greensock.*;
    import com.greensock.easing.*;
    import com.greensock.plugins.*;
    var bookPosition:String = "up";
    var currentPage:String;
    function slideServicesIn ():void{
             if (bookPosition = "up"){
             //Goes to a certain frame label in the book movie clip
             book.gotoAndStop("webDesignPage");
             //Slides the book down 825px from the top of the screen using TweenLite
             TweenLite.to(book, 3, { y:825 } );
             bookPosition = "down";
             currentPage = "book.servicesPage";
            else () {
             //Fades out the current page using TweenLite
             TweenLite.to(currentPage, 1, { alpha:0, ease:Quad.easeIn } );
             //Fades in the Web Design Page using Tweenlite
             TweenLite.to(book.webDesignPage, 1, { alpha:1, ease:Quad.easeIn, delay: .2 } );

  • Select list with bind variable does not work

    Hi,
    What can be wrong with a 'select list' with the a simple select
    select omschrijving o, id i
    from basiscodes b
    where domein = 'OPTIES'
    and b.id in
    (select eo.basiscode_id from evenementen_opties eo
    where eo.event_id = :P16_ID)
    The :P16_ID has a value and should give result
    But it does not work at all with 'select list'
    Using the POPUP LOV (display discription, return key value) works nice
    The select retuns less then 10 records

    Hi Flavio,
    As I explained, the P16_ID is an item of the master page (page 16)
    In Page 18 where I want to reuse that value, the item is not there, but I use it to assign
    P18_EVENT_ID with the value in P16_ID and that works fine.
    In an after submit process, I do this :
    declare
    function get_pk return varchar2
    is
    begin
    for c1 in (select EVENEMENT_INSCHRIJVING_SEQ.nextval next_val
    from dual)
    loop
    return c1.next_val;
    end loop;
    end;
    begin
    :P18_ID := get_pk;
    :P18_EVENT_ID := :P16_ID;
    :P18_CREATIE_DT := TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:SS');
    :P18_CREATIE_USER := APEX_APPLICATION.G_USER;
    end;
    The value P16_ID is there before I open page 18
    I made a display item that displays the value P16_ID
    If I change the LOV select in :
    select b.omschrijving o, b.id i
    from basiscodes b
    , evenementen_opties eo
    where b.domein = 'OPTIES'
    and b.id = eo.basiscode_id
    and eo.event_id = 16
    then it returns the value I want : 1 record
    You see, I'm a really new one in apex.
    Forms 6i was easier for me...
