Restrict Characteristic on value range in Query Designer

Hi,
In 3.5, it was possible to restrict a filter in the query designer on a value range, even if the start- and end values of that range did not exist in the master data.
In 2004s, it is possible to restrict single value filters to a non-existing masterdata value. However, for value ranges, this does not seem to be the case. Do you know any workaround for this?
Regards,
Daniel

of course, BI 7.0 support value range for restrict.Please kindly release more information about your case .
Value Range
• Instead of selecting single values you can quickly gather multiple characteristic values using this next option. This choice provides the following additional options:
1. Between
2. Greater than or equal to
3. Less than or equal to
4. Greater than
5. Less than

  • Restrict the values in the Query Designer

    Hi Guru’s,
    I want to Restrict PLANT or  SALES ORG  values in the Query Designer, in the Query, PLANT has selected in the rows and having variable and SALES ORG is display attribute of the PLANT. In this scenario How can we Restrict the values?
    Thanks in Advance,

    Hi Ravi,
    You cannot restrict values on the display attributes. Better change it to navigational attribute and check the box as navigational in the cube.

  • How to Pass Multiple Value Range From Query ?

    Hi,
    I have searched over SDN to find about how do we pass multiple value ranges from Query to SAP ODATA?
    But I have not found suitable answers so I am posting it here.
    If we need to pass a date parameter in Query which has a multiple range like  sales orders created date between 03/02/2014 to 05/07/2014.

  • Results based on From and To value in Bex query designer.

    Dear all,
    We are using BI7.00. In one of our report which pertains to PM user wants to get the details of number of breakdowns which falls in the value range 0 to 1 hours.
    I created a condition which has 2 variables, one is From value and the other is for the To value (since user wants to enter both the limits). I have written a condition that if the breakdown hour is greater than or equal to variable1 and less than or equal to variable2.
    Using the above condition if the query is run, i am not getting the desired output. The values avaialble in the report are 0.65,0.78,1.30,7.38,0 etc., when i give 0 to 1 i should get the values 0.65,0.78 and 0 but instead report displays "No valid results".
    I changed the condition and selected "Between" variable 1 and variable 2 - yet no change in the query.
    To my knowledge i foresee that system is not able to recognize the decimal and hence provides details only based on the whole numbers.
    How to get my requirement achieved in the Bex query designer.
    Experts suggestion with steps will be very useful to solve my problem.

    Edited by: Magesh Magesh on Dec 26, 2008 11:28 AM

    Hi Magesh,
    I think you could try one more way.
    Create a formula inserting your two formula variables for limits .(FV -  are ready for input ) .
    The formula would return the result as 1 or 0 because it would have boolean condition in it.
    You could then place a condition in the query designer to only show all records where the value of the formula key fig is 1.
    You formula A would look like
    ( KF > FV1) AND (KF < FV2) * 1.
    And in the condition put A EQ 1.
    You could scale the key figures as well and multiply the limits mentioned by the users in FV1 and FV2 if decimals are still not recognized by SAP.(scaling)

  • Value display  in Query designer

    Hi Gurus,
      I have a  formula which i need to create .
    My requirement is now, i want the value entered in the input variable to be displayed in the report (designed by query designer), but a some changed one .
    ex: If  the input variable is for cal month .
    I enter "01.2009" in the variable screen.
    Now the display which i need in the report (in a column or row) is 05 or 5.
    Please let me know if this is possible(preferably not using a customer exit).
    Thanks and Regards,
    Balaji Raj

    Hi Balaji,
    If you want to use the number for calculation then neither customer exit nor text variablel will help you. For this you will have to create a formula variable.
    Create a formula and then in the left bottom pane ("Available Operand"), scroll all the way down and you will see a folder called Formula. Right Click on it and crete a new variable. Go to edit mode and put the description and technical name of hte variable and select "Repalcement Path" and select the char as calmonth.
    Go to next tab and make sure you have InfoObject and key selected. Click on "From Value", put offset as 4 and length 2.
    Save the variable and include the variable value in the formula.
    Now when you enter 200905, your 05 will be in the formula column.
    NOTE: make sure your calmonth variable is global to query and not part of any local (selection) restriction.

  • How to exclude values in the query designer

    Hi everybody,
    i need your help!
    I need to exclude certain information from a report, but as could enter new values in the future, I see it now.
    Ex.
    CreatedBy contains the following values:
    MSanz
    PRojas
    Soporte
    Soporte1
    Soporte2
    I need to exclude anything value that is Soporte* for first report
    and the second report include anything value Soporte*
    first report
    MSanz
    PRojas
    Second Report
    Soporte
    Soporte1
    Soporte2
    thanks for your help
    Manuel
    Edited by: Manuel Sandoval on May 30, 2008 6:35 PM

    Hi Manuel,
    There are two ways to exclude the fields of Createby.
    1. Excude Soporte,Soporte1,Soporte2 in the first report.  Select createby -->, right click >Restrict> select  Soporte,Soporte1,Soporte2  and pull from left to right > right click(3 fields)> exclude.
    Similary for second report exclude MSanz, PRojas.
    Or
    After restricting include only the necessary fvalues  from right to left for creteby field.
    Best method is include one, for performance point of you.
    Second approach is create two user exit variables. one to include Soporte,Soporte1,Soporte2 (3 values) in the variable and second variable to include MSanz, PRojas. You can maintain these two variables values in the tvarvc table and use these variable  in the reports directly. This approach is very very useful if you want to use this variable in many reports ex, 10 or more. Directly you can drag createby and its corresponding variable.
    Choose the best approach for your requirement.
    Hope it helps.
    (assign me points)
    Thanks

  • Char restriction in Bex Query Designer

    Hi Gurus,
    Can anyone explain what is the use of the Characteristic Restriction Area in in the BEx Query designer
    If i set 0CALYEAR =2008 in the Char Restriction and in the column definition i set the one of the column to display data from year 2009. Will it work ?
    Please advice
    Thank you
    BR

    There are two type of characterstic restrcitions in the query. Global and local.
    If you are createing a restrcited key figure or selection and restricting calday then it will be restricted to that particular key figure (and show 2008 data) and in the columns it will show you other years data (i.e. 2009 data).
    But if you are using a global fiter in the filter tab of query designer, then it will be applicable to the whole query.

  • Ad hoc Query Designer

    Hi,
    In which scenarios we use Ad hoc Query Desinger..can you give me an example....I know there are few restrictions when compared to Query designer.....

    hi,
    Ad-Hoc Query designer
    Creating a query with the Ad-Hoc query designer is much on the same lines as creating a query with the Bex Query Deisgner. You need to choose the chars and key figures and place them in rows, columns, free chars or filter areas. You can set the InfoObject properties and also create exceptions and conditions.
    The Adhoc Query Designer is a web item and can be made available in web reports
    See this link for more info and some important restrictions when using the Ad-Hoc Query Designer:

  • All Dates displayed for "Characteristic Values" in Query Designer

    Hello Experts,
    We are on BI 7.0, level 13.  I am having an issue within the Query Designer with regards to dates.  I have a write-optimized DSO that contains 3 date fields (for example, ZDATE1, ZDATE2, and ZDATE3).  Each date InfoObject is of type DATS so the system automatically creates it with reference to 0DATE. 
    When I create a query in the Query Designer, on the left hand side, I expand the "Characteristic Values" node under each date field.  The Query Designer shows the same list of values for each of the 3 dates even though they are not valid values posted in the DSO for those fields.
    For example, ZDATE1 only has 1 value posted in the DSO (01/01/2005).
    ZDATE2 only has 1 value posted in the DSO (01/01/2006).
    ZDATE3 only has 1 value posted in the DSO (01/01/2007).
    Bute when I expand the "Characteristic Values" node in the Query Designer, I see ALL THREE values under each date field.  I would expect to only see the 1 value posted for the InfoObject in the DSO.  Also note that each InfoObject is defined to show "Only posted values in InfoProvider".
    It appears that Query Designer will show all values for the reference InfoObject 0DATE instead of the ones posted to the actual InfoObject in the DSO.  If I delete the data in the DSO, the Characteristic Values list still remains because they exist in 0DATE.  Anyone encounter this before?  How can I get the Characteristic Values list to only show posted values for that InfObject?
    Thanks for your help!
    J

    Thanks for the response.  I went into the DSO and right clicked on each of the Date fields.  I looked at the Provider-specific properties and there is the option for "Query Exec.FilterVal" which only restricts what values appear when restricting during execution, not during query creation.
    Is there someplace else I should look or someplace else I can make change to only display posted dates when creating a query?  Thanks!

  • Query Designer restricted key figures using a prompt value

    Hallo Experts,
    I would like to restrict key figures after user has beeen prompted to enter a date. I have 2 key figures:
    a) KF1, Date1
    b) KF2, Date2
    User should be prompted to select a specific date: e.g. 01/2011. After selecting/entering the prompted date value, it should be given to date objects for intance Date1=01/2011 and Date2=01/2011.
    How could I achieve it in Query Designer without using customer_exit function? Reason is that non-experienced users will use this report and they should not be confronted with complex query. Do you have any idea?  
    Many thanks
    Mamadu

    Hi,
    I assume that you need to restrict the value of keyfigures by date based on user input data on variable selection screen.
    First create one user input variable on your date field say for eg calday.
    Now restrict your KF1 with calday and choose that vairable which you created.
    For second KF2 which seems to me need to be restricted with offset of +1 based on the date entered by the user.
    So restrict this KF2 with calday and use the same variable with offset of +1
    I just misunderstood you ned calmonth or day because in requirement you have given month but you are calling it as date.
    If its month then replace calday with calmonth..
    Hope it helps.

  • How to restrict the attribute values for the user in query designer

    Hi All,
    I have a requirment where certain user would see certain vailes in the query desiner of the attribute.
    The requirment is we have planing material which is attribute of material
    When X user want to restrict the  values for planning material ,where he is able to see all the planning material.But who is not authorized for all the value.
    Ex: X user has authorization for see planning material 100,101,102. of material But when he try to restrict the planning material in query designer where is getting all values of planing material.
    Or
    is there way to blank the restriction help.so that he can't able to see values while restricting
    Please some one can advise me on it..

    Hi,
    Let me sum up:
    you have an object ZPLNMAT for the planning material
    you have the object 0MATERIAL for material and this object has ZPLNMAT as attribute.
    If you can restrict in the query designer, I suppose this attribute is then as navigationnal and also added in the multi-provider.
    The object ZPLNMAT is checked as relevant for authorization, and you set up a role with the attached values of ZPLNMAT this user should have access to.
    Are you sure the users are restricting on the ZPLNMAT object and not 0MATERIAL, because you should have everything now

  • Dump when trying to display characteristic values in QUERY DESIGNER

    Hi Experts,
    Life seems to become a struggle with 7.0 for me :-(.
    My current problem:
    If I try to display characteristic values  in Query Designer (left section of screnn, wthin dimensions) system dumps frequently.
    It's that kind of dump, that doen't help really (to my oponion)_
    What happened?
        The exception 'CX_RSR_X_MESSAGE' was raised, but it was not caught anywhere
         along
        the call hierarchy.
        Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not
        adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
         'CL_RSBOLAP_BICS_SERVICES======CP' has to be
        terminated.
    How to correct the error
        If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
        find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
        If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
        keywords:
        "UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION" "CX_RSR_X_MESSAGE"
        "CL_RSBOLAP_BICS_SERVICES======CP" or "CL_RSBOLAP_BICS_SERVICES======CM003"
