Reseting filters in a Query View

I have a query built that has a good bit of logic.
For reporting purposes I'd like to create query views from this one query so I only have to change the logic one place when the user decides they want something tweaked.
I need a view by company, one by responsible person etc ....
The problem arises that when you create the views the filters are "stuck" at what they were then (which makes the views much less useful). My main issue is for time. I want the Calendar Year/Month to be the value of the current closed month (the default value in the variable). But I want the user to be able to change it <u>after</u> running.
These views will be used in web templates. I've tried a few things but the closest I've come is to have a button or link that when clicked sets the filter value based on another data provider. I don't want that -- I want the value reset when the web template opens. I tried putting the same command in the "Before rendering" of the web template properties but get a stack overflow error
Is there a way to save the navigation state of a query without saving the filter values? Or is there a way I can reset the filter value in the web template?
I very frustrated

I am using the new NetWeaver2004s.
We usually just publish the template to the role & have the role in the portal so I'm not sure how to add that parameter in that case.
I tried adding to the end of the URL -- but apparently don't have the right syntax. What syntax should I use?
I tried checking "Reset Variables to Default" in the web template with no effect

Reset button to reset filters

I have an query form with table displaying results from a View Criteria. When I click the "Reset" button in the query form, the search fields are reset, but the table filters are not. As a result, it is easy to make mistakes when searching. I want the "Reset" button to reset both the search fields and the table filters. Is this possible?
I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.1.5.0

Somehow I'm getting a Null Pointer Error:
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
     at view.Reset.queryOperationListener(Reset.java:130)
I created a Java Bean to contain the queryOperationListener method (the name of my criteria is MyCriteria)
public void queryOperationListener(QueryOperationEvent queryOperationEvent) {
        invokeMethodExpression("#{bindings.MyCriteriaQuery.processQueryOperation}",
                               Object.class, QueryOperationEvent.class,
                               queryOperationEvent);
        if (queryOperationEvent.getOperation().name().toUpperCase().equals("RESET")) {
            BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
            OperationBinding operationBinding =
                bindings.getOperationBinding("doQueryResultReset");
            operationBinding.execute(); // THIS IS LINE 130
            AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(t1);
    }and then the following in AppModuleImpl.java (the name of my view is ZcApplView1):
public void doQueryResultReset() {
        ViewCriteria vc = this.getZcApplView1().getViewCriteria("MyCriteria");
        this.getZcApplView1().removeViewCriteria("MyCriteria");
        this.getZcApplView1().executeEmptyRowSet();
        this.getZcApplView1().applyViewCriteria(vc);
    } How can it give a Null Pointer Error?

Refreshing drop down list in a web template based on a query view

Refreshing drop down list in a web template based on a query view
I have just developed my first set of portal pages displaying the results of Bex queries and query views in the SAP Netweaver portal. I developed the pages using web application designer. Each web template created with W.A.D is using a query or query view. In one template I have that is using a query view I am using a variable in my Bex query. This variable is of type customer exit, is set to variable is ready for input and calls some ABAP code which returns the current fiscal week number and year. When I run the query or query view in isolation through Bex analyzer the variables gets populated correctly. In my web template I have associated my variable from my query view to a drop down list box. However when I run the Iview created from this template the query results get refreshed but my drop down list box does not, it still shows last weeks week number. How do I get the drop down list box to refresh with the latest result from my customer exit variable?

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to filter a calendar based a look up column in SharePoint 2013.
Calendar View not support OOTB filters connection. it is disabled for calendar view, you need to change view(not calendar view) so OOTB filters works and get connected to your view.
You can achieve this using combination of jQuery and SharePoint OOB techniques.
For jQuery filters refer to the blog: enter SharePoint List Filters using jQuery
Also you can filter Calendar View Web Part using JQuery and SPServices:
http://blogs.visigo.com/chriscoulson/filter-a-sharepoint-calendar-list-with-a-date-picker/
http://joshmccarty.com/2011/11/sharepoint-jquery-and-fullcalendar%E2%80%94now-with-spservices/
http://spservices.codeplex.com/discussions/258846
Another way, you can have a look at the SPFilterCalendar :

Creation of Query View

Hi All,
Can someone pls explain me how to create a query view and what is its importance?
Thanks in advance.
Chaitra

Hi Chaitra,
i dont know which BW version you use but let me explain that for BW 3.5:
1.) Local Views: If you navigate in your BEx workbook - for example you start a query and navigate in Excel - you can save the view state in the BEx workbook. Than this view is a local view stored in the BEx workbook. You can open this views by using the "jump" button in the BEx toolbar.
For example you filter your query by different sales organizations and there are 4 sales orgs available. You can than filter and create a local view for each sales organization.
Its a good way to switch fast between different views within a workbook without many navigation steps. Just a click or link is enough. End users like this.
The view is saved "in the workbook".
Hint: to save use the blue save button in BEx Analyzer.
2. Global Views: You can navigate within your query in the BEx Analyzer and if you reached a good view state with the filters and the requested drill down you can save the whole view with any settings (query, characteristcs, key figures etc.) as a "global" view. In this case you must save the global view a description and a technical name. Now this view is saved "on the BW server" and any user can open this view by using the open function.
And you can use this global view in the Web Appication Designer as an initial view for tables and charts. There are many more things you can do with it. For example: if you filter for example a special sales org in a global view, than you can use a drop down box (mapped with sales org in web application designer) and the drop down box is pre filtered with this sales org. As you can see global views are important for wen reporting.
Hint: to save use the blue save button in BEx Analyzer.
Global views can be openend in the excel or web.
If you read the online help you will find more useful examples.
Hope this helps.

Adem

Query or query view in webtemplate

Hi guys,
I am working with one webtemplate and related queries/query views.we have different strategy for changing if its query or queryview thats been used in template.
1.How can I find if its Queries or Queryviews that been used for my dataproviders in my webtemplate?I am working with WAD3.5
2.Whats the difference between a query and a query view?what difference does it make if we use query or queryview while building and using a webtemplate?
Thanks alot.
P Olin

hi
you should first understand that Query view is nothing but a modified view of the Query. You run a query, do some filtering, navigation or do some changes to the look and then save it as a query view. so the answers would be
1. You open the data provider at the bottom of your webtemplate and there you can see if the data provider is a Query or a view (from the radio buttons)
2. it makes no difference whether u use a Query or query view in a web template. It is up to you to decide in what format you want to see the web report. If you want the web report to display the report in the format of the Query, then you would use Query as data provider. If you have to show the web report in the format of the Query view, then you would use Query view as the data provider.
thanks

Executing Query Views not populating Query Cache?

Hi, I'm executing 3 query views in a web template. I was expecting this to populate the cache for the query which they are based upon, but they are not?
Can anyone verify this behavior?
Thanks!

Hi,
A query uses a cache entry only if it is suitable for it regarding navigational status, filters...
I recommend you to read this how to guide:
https://websmp103.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700004339892004E/HowToOLAPCache.pdf
Have a detalied look at sections 3.4 and 3.5:
<i>Cached query results can be used only for the same query. In some cases, real subsets of
cached query result sets can be used; this is possible, if the three following requirements are
met:
It is the same query ID
All selection criteria of the second query must be contained in those of the first call, i.e.
the query result set of the cached query is a superset of the second query
Note that the selection variable must defined as changeable with query navigation! If the
variable was not changeable, the variable value would be part of cache entry key and,
hence, the cache entry could only be used for exactly the same variable values.
The characteristics with differing selection criteria are included in the drill-down of the
cached query result</i>
Hope it helps,
David.

Error while saving a query view

Hi All,
I am trying to save a query view in my favourites and it is failing with below message:
Namespace '/BIC/' must be set to 'changeable' (transaction SE06)
I have created many query view so far, this issue has just started. Could you please help us with this, as it is very urgent.
Thanks and regards,
Shashidhar.

Hi,
Please set the setting as described in note 337950, it will help to fix the issue.
solution:
Releasing the object changeability
This setting is only intended for production or test systems that are
set to not changeable. It is not suitable for development systems. For
this reason, this setting is only effective if at least one of the
conditions specified under 'Cause and prerequisites' is met.
Go to the Administrator Workbench (Data Warehousing Workbench,
transaction RSA1) -> 'Goto' -> 'Transport Connection' and choose 'Object
Changeability'. To display the function, you may have to enlarge the
window or press the arrow keys nearby.
In the following dialog box you can select the object types that you
want to be changeable, even though the system is set to not changeable.
These objects are not connected to the transport system; this means that
no transport dialog boxes are displayed. This only applies, however, if
the preconditions mentioned under 'Cause and prerequisites' are met.
First, after releasing an object type, only objects that are original,
that is, those that were created in this system can be changed. This
prevents changes to objects that were imported into the system. However,
changes to these objects may be overwritten again during a new
transport.
You can set all objects to changeable (even the ones imported into the
system) using the context menu (right mouse button), although this
setting is not recommended for the reasons mentioned above.
Thanks,
Venkat

Query View name not saved in "Analysis Grid Properties" under Data Provider

Hi BW World;)
We are on BI 7.0
I have created a BI workbook which contains a query view.
However when we go into design mode and then "analysis grid properties" for this query view then "change data provider" it does not show the query view name but the query name. (we have saved the workbook)
Is this the normal scenario?
Surely should show the "query view name " and not the "query name" as confuses what data provider is being used?
Is this a bug?
Best
Stevo.... Points of course... Thanks in advance.;)
Edited by: bw4eva999 on Sep 10, 2009 4:40 PM spelling

Hi,
You have created a workbook on top of a Query View which is again depends on a Query.Now the base for Query View is a Query.So the underlying Data Provider for a workbook is a Query.
Hence when you go to Properties of grid->Change Data Provider,it shows the Query and the InfoCube,but not the Query View.
So this is not a bug and this how its been designed.
If you click for the Information of that workbook,it will show the Query and Info Provider,but not the query View.
Though it looks like wierd,it is not a bug.

BEX Query Views - Reqd in PRD but need to create in Dev - Data Issues

Hello Bw Gurus
BI 7.0 ECC 4.7
We have a BEx Query in BI production which uses a work centre hierarchy. The user wants to create query views on this query to use in BI production.
Our normal transport procedure of a new development object would be BI DEV - QA - PRD
However the DEV environment does not have all the work centres and the data of PRD. So if the query view needs to be created in DEV then we could not set up the view correctly as there is not the workcenters or the data in DEV.
Hopefully that makes sense?
Apart from allowing Query Views to be created in BI PRD directly is there any solution?
Best,
Steve Jones

If you need exact char values for workcenter to create your views you can quickly create the master data (just the values you want) in Dev and use them to create the views...

Create A Query View!

Hi ALL
how to create a Query View for TeMplates?????
Thanks
BI Learner

hello,
Query views are saved version of query output with particulr navigational state
The advantages of query views are:
Query views can be used as the data providers when you are creating web templates.
They are also used as jump targets. They are created after you execute the query, from the Save button, you can Save View global, or save as jump target.
They can also be used to format the query e.g hide some characterictic, display/hide result rows, sorting keyfigures etc.
Reg migration:
All existing SAP BW 3.x queries can be edited with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s BEx Query Designer without further manual adaptation.
After editing with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s Query Designer, queries cannot be edited with the SAP BW 3.x BEx Query Designer anymore.
Queries created or adapted with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s BEx Query Designer will still appear in the Open Dialog of the SAP BW 3.x Query Designer, but they cannot be opened anymore
Views:
Query Views that were created before upgrade/migration will still run after a query has been changed with the SAP NetWeaver 2004s BEx Query Designer
In general query views do not need to be migrated

Dhanya
