Restricted key figures (from Infoprovider) not showing in multiprovider

Hi all
I have created a multi provider joining two info providers.  The infoproviders have many restricted and calculated key figures.
Do I have to re-create these in the multiprovider ?
In the infoprovider when I click on edit restricted key figure it says it is reuseable.
any ideas ?
thanks in advance

Hi Sandra,
In the infoprovider when I click on edit restricted key figure it says it is reuseable This means that it can be used in any query on that info provider not on another infoprovider (like a multi-provider). So, you will need to re-create those KFs on muti-provider.
Thanks and Regards

  • Restricted key figure

    HI,
    can any body explain me what is the difference between Restricted key Figure and the filter option in BEX reporting.

    Hi Ali,
    If you want restrict particuler key figure based on characteristic value, that you have to go for restricted key figure.
    For example: You have calender year month data from 2005 to 2006.An dyou have also have sales data for the period.
    If you want see the say some feb 2005 to may 2006.
    than you can use restricted key figure to see the values.
    where as Filter will show the values which you have filtered irrespective of key figure (only characteristic value).
    just go throw the below description.
    Hi,
    Restricted key figure:
    Use
    You can restrict the key figures of an InfoProvider for reuse by selecting one or more characteristics. The key figures that are restricted by one or more characteristic selections can be basic key figures, calculated key figures, or key figures that are already restricted.
    Procedure
    Defining a new restricted key figure
    1. In the InfoProvider screen area, select the Key Figures entry and choose New Restricted Key Figure from the context menu (secondary mouse button).
    If a restricted key figure has already been defined for this InfoProvider, you can also select the Restricted Key Figures entry and then choose New Restricted Key Figure from the context menu.
    The entry New Restricted Key Figure is inserted and the properties for the restricted key figure are displayed in the Properties screen area.
    2. Select the New Restricted Key Figure entry and choose Edit from the context menu (secondary mouse button.
    The Change Restricted Key Figure dialog box appears.
    You can also call the Change Restricted Key Figure dialog box from the Properties screen area by choosing the Edit pushbutton.
    Calculated key figure:
    Use
    In the Query Designer, you use formulas to recalculate the key figures in an InfoProvider so that you can reuse them. Calculated key figures consist of formula definitions containing basic key figures, restricted key figures or precalculated key figures.
    Procedure
    Defining a New Calculated Key Figure
    1. In the InfoProvider screen area, select the Key Figures entry and from the context menu (secondary mouse button click), choose New Calculated Key Figure.
    If a calculated key figure has already been defined for this InfoProvider, you can select the Calculated Key Figures entry and, from the context menu, choose New Calculated Key Figure.
    The system adds the New Calculated Key Figure entry. The properties for the calculated key figure are displayed in the Properties screen area.
    2. Select the New Calculated Key Figure entry and, from the context menu (secondary mouse button), choose Edit.
    The Calculated Key Figure dialog box appears.
    You can also call the Change Calculated Key Figure dialog box from the Properties screen area by choosing the Edit pushbutton.
    Formula:
    Use
    You can recalculate the key figures in a structure using a formula. You can include basic key figures, restricted key figures, and calculated key figures in the formula definition.
    Procedure
    Defining a Formula
    1. If the query does not yet have a key figure structure, create a New Structure in the Rows or Columns of the Query Designer by highlighting the row or column directory using the secondary mouse button and selecting New Structure from the context menu.
    2. If the structure does not yet contain any key figures, use drag and drop to transfer a (basic) key figure of the InfoProvider into the directory of the new structure.
    3. Select the structure directory, and choose New Formula. The New Formula entry is inserted and the properties for the formula are displayed in the Properties screen area.
    4. Select the New Formula entry and, from the context menu (secondary mouse button), choose Edit. The Change Formula dialog box appears.
    You can also call the Change Formula dialog box from the Properties screen area by choosing the Edit pushbutton.

  • Steps to create a Restricted Key Figure

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a  BEx Query and want to create a Restricted Key Figure.
    I am using BEx 7.x.
    Please help me with steps to create a Restricted Key FIgure.
    Thnaks and Regards,
    Shreyas Shah

    Hi Shreyas,
    Please find the step by step to create a restricted key figures.
    Procedure for Defining a new restricted key figure:
    1. In the InfoProvider screen area, select the Key Figures entry and choose New Restricted Key Figure from the context menu (secondary mouse button).
    If a restricted key figure has already been defined for this InfoProvider, you can also select the Restricted Key Figures entry and then choose New Restricted Key Figure from the context menu.
    The entry New Restricted Key Figure is inserted and the properties for the restricted key figure are displayed in the Properties screen area.
    2. Select the New Restricted Key Figure entry and choose Edit from the context menu (secondary mouse button).
    The Change Restricted Key Figure dialog box appears.
    You can also call the Change Restricted Key Figure dialog box from the Properties screen area by choosing the Edit pushbutton.
    You make the basic settings on the General tab page.
    The text field, in which you can enter a description of the restricted key figure, is found in the upper part of the screen.
    You can use text variables in the description (see Using Text Variables).
    Next to that, you can enter a technical name in the Technical Name field.
    Underneath the text field, to the left of the Detail View area, the directory of all objects available in the InfoProvider is displayed. The empty field for defining the restricted key figure (Details of the Selection) is on the right-hand side of the screen.
    3. Using drag and drop, choose a key figure from the InfoProvider and restrict it by selecting one or more characteristic values. See Restricting Characteristics.
    You can also use variables instead of characteristic values. However, note that you cannot use the following variable types in restricted key figures for technical reasons:
    Variables with the process type Replacement with Query (see also Replacement Path: Replacement with Querys)
    Variables that represent a precalculated value set (see also Details)
    You can use these variable types to restrict characteristics in the rows, columns, or in the filter.
    4. Make any necessary settings for the properties of the restricted key figure on the other tab pages. See Selection/Formula Propertiess.
    5. Choose OK. The new restricted key figure is defined for the InfoProvider.
    Let me know if this helps.
    Thanks

  • Currency translation for a restricted key figure in Query designer

    Dear Experts,
    In my query i am using a restricted Keyfigure (ZRKF1 which is reusable). I have to change the currency translation key of the restricted Key Figure  from zcur1 to zcur2. I am not able to edit zrkf1 Currency translation in the properties( It is in gray colour) ,while i can do it for a normal keyfigure.  if i edit zrkf1 then other queries will be affected. How should i solve this? Can i copy and paste the zrkf1 to zrkf2 in order to use zrkf2 with currency translation zcur2 in my query ? How can i coy and paste restricted key figure?
    Thanks,
    Riya

    Hello Riya
    I think you can't change the currency transaltion type for RKF... to change it in RKF just make the changes in the KF which you have used in RKF....
    If you don't want to change the CURR translation type in KF1 than copy it paste it (KF2)and change in that KF2...now u can use KF2 in restricted KF...
    Thanks

  • Restrict Key Figure using a Characteristic InfoObject which is Compounded

    Hello Friends,
    I have a scenario where I need to restrict the a Key Figure using a Characteristic which is a Compounded Info Object.
    The Compounding is done on Info Object Payment Method and Country is the superior Info Object. The Values in the Compounded Info Object are like "country/payment method"  " AE/J ,  AU/J , BD/3". 
    In the Query I would like to restrict the data for a Key Figure using the above values. But when I try to create a Restricted Key Figure it does not take the compounded value instead it would take the value of Payment method like J or 3.
    But in the Single values for Payment Method it shows the complete compounded value "AE/J , AU/J", and when I select the values it selects only the payment method value.
    Any suggestions on how to achieve a restriction on the compounded value.

    Hi Naveen,
    Kindly try filtering the Key Figure with both Payment Method and Country in the restricted key figure that you are creating.
    For example, lets assume you want a restricted key figure, that is filtered with the value - AE/J.
    You are not able to get that directly by filtering it only with Payment Method - J.
    So filter it with Payment Method - J and Country - AE.
    Now save the restricted key figure and try executing it.
    Hope it Helps.
    Warm Regards

  • How to delete a restricted key figure in a multiprovider

    Hi all
    I used transaction RSZC (for the first time) to copy over restricted key figures from and info provider to a multi provider.
    This worked but somehow it copied over each restricted key figure twice.
    I have right clicked on the ones I don't want and clicked on delete but it doesn't delete them.
    any ideas ?
    thanks in advance

    Thanks to you all for your help
    It was my fault, I had them in structures that I'd copied over so that's why it wouldn't let me delete them.
    I found this out when I used RSZDELETE, thanks for that

  • 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.

    Also restricted key figure is inactive and how to activate the query in background ?

    Hi,
    I have never heard of query activation, we simply create the query and save it. I don't know which activity you are referring to but try to open your query through RSRT and check what is the error it shows?
    And before that make sure that your Infoprovider is in active state.

  • Very Very Urgent Issue: Restricted Key Figure does not return any data

    Hi all,
    Please help me solving this urgent issue.
    created customer exit variable on characterstics version and also
    other customer exit variable on Value type.
    I coded that in variable exit. Problem is when I include these in
    restrickted keyfigure My query does not return me any data.
    But if I remove from restrickted key firgure and put it as normal
    charaterstics I see the variable is getting populated.
    Also in RSRT the SQl generated when these are included in RKF is not
    correct.
    I debugged and know they are getting populated. As when included in RKF
    I can also see the values of customer exit variables from information
    tab.
    I also know that there is data in cube for those restrictions.

  • Could not release my own Key Figure from DP to SNP

    Hi SAP Experts,
    As requirement, I have to run forecast for three Key Figures in Demand Planning (DP): Z_FK1, Z_KFK2, Z_FK3. Unit of measure of these Keyfigure are VND (currency Viet Nam Dong).
    I added these Key Figures to DP Planning Area with name Z_DPPlan01.
    I created a new Planning Area in SNP with name: Z_9ASNP02 by coppying from the standard 9ASNP02. Then I added the above Key Figures (Z_FK1, Z_KFK2, Z_FK3) into Z_9ASNP02 planning area.
    After I runing forecast in DP, I tried to release value of three Key Figures into SNP with tcode: /n/sapapo/mc90. Although system informs that u201CRelease successfully executedu201D, nothing released from Z_DPPlan01 to Z_9ASNP02 when I check in SNP Planning book.
    Question is:
    How to configure Key Figures in SNP and DP (Sematic, Key Figure Function, Category, Category Groupu2026)  so that we can release all three above Key Figures from DP to SNP?
    Thanks very much for your help!
    Duyennx

    Dear Pawan,
    2 . The business requirements are:
    Our customer is a bank that has many branches. They want to forecast for each branches:
    - The Total money (all denominations) will be issued in next quater (Z_KF1). This base on historical data (Z_HIS1)
    - The total money (all denominations)will be received in next quater (Z_KF2). This base on historical data (Z_HIS2)
    Base on these forecast KFs, we need to calculate the Average of Total money will be received and Issued in next quarter (Z_KF3 = (Z_KF1+ZKF2)/90.
    90 is the number of days in a Quarter.
    We need to release the three KFs from DP to SNP for further calculation and reporting. As said previously, I added three time series KFs Z_KF1, Z_KF2, Z_KF3 to SNP Planning Area (Z_9ASNP02)
    If could not release, we can coppy. But the problem is that: in DP, beside standard characteristics 9AMATNR and 9ALOCNO, we also added more custom characteristics like Z_TYPE (to generate CVCs and to drill down money by type (cotton, polymer, coin)). So when I run the Tcode /n/sapapo/tscopy, despite of the fact that in u201CCharacteristic Assignmentu201D I only assigned 9AMATNR and 9ALOCNO from source to target, system show message like:
       3 combinations not contained in target master planning object structure
    Message no. /SAPAPO/MSDP_REL108
    Diagnosis
    Characteristic combinations exist in the source planning area's master planning object structure that are not contained within the master planning object structure of the target planning area.
    System Response
    The source data of these characteristic combinations is not written to to the target planning area.
    So, How to copy with my case?
    4.Please Explain more about:
    u201CCreate a third custom category group containing your custom category, and add this under 9AMALO. Give only your category group name & Semantic should be 000u201D
    4.1.I can creat a custom category group under menu path:
    SAP Reference IMG u2192 Advanced Planning and Optimization u2192 Supply Chain Planning u2192 Supply Network Planning
    u2192 Basic Settings u2192 Maintain Category Groups.
    But where can I create my custome category? Is this menu path:
    SAP Reference IMG u2192 Advanced Planning and Optimization u2192 Global Available-to-promise (Global ATP) u2192 General Settings u2192 Maintain Category
    In this path, I can see to folder:
    -u201CSAP categoriesu201D: We could not create new category in this folder
    - and  u201Cnon-SAP Categoriesu201D: I can press button u201CNew Entriesu201D and key in Data like:
    oCategory: TT
    oCategory text: TT
    oCategory Description: TT
    oSort String: 99
    oCategory type: Requirements (I also tried with Forecast, Stock, Receipt)
    And then, press u201CSaveu201D button. But system always create message:
    u201CEnter values in work area for non-key fields
    Message no. SV174
    Diagnosis
    An entry has been made for a non-key field in the view or table, which does not satisfy a selection condition stored in the Dictionary or made in the maintenance transaction initial screen.
    System Response
    The values entered cannot be accepted.
    Procedure
    Ensure that your entry is correct. This data record will not be displayed if you use the same selection conditions again.u201D
    I donu2019t know what wrong here. How to create my custom Category? Here is u201Cnon-SAP Categoriesu201D, Is there any problem if we create category with this type?
    4.2 How to add custom Category Group under 9AMALO? Which T-code we use?
    5. By the way, Please clearly explain for me:
    5.1. What are differences between u201CTime series live cacheu201D and u201COrder live cacheu201D?
    5.2. What are differences between releasing KFs from DP to SNP and copying KFs from DP to SNP?

  • Building a new Cube Vs Restricted Key figure in Query - Performance issue

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to create  a OPEX restricted key figure in Query. The problem is that the key figure should be restricted to about 30 GL Accounts and almost 300 Cost centers.
    I do not know if this might cause performance issue in the query. At the moment, I am thinking of creating a new OPEX cube and load only those 30 GL Accounts, 300 cost  centers and Amount. and  include OPEX  in multiprovider in order to get OPEX
    amount in the report.
    whats the best solution - creating OPEX restricted key figure or OPEX cube ?
    thanks,
    Bhat

    I think you should go for cube as all the restrcited key figure are calculated at OLAP runtime so it will definitely affect the query performance.There are a lot of costcenter for which you have to restrict it so definitely during the runtime of query it will take a lot of time to fetch tha data from infoprovider.Its better that you create a cube with the restrictions and include it in MP.It will definitely save a lot of time during query execution

  • Problem with Restricted Key Figures Please Solve

    Dear All.
    i restrict the key figure on some GL's for Cumulative balance, this RKF show me the result base on the 0CALMONTH which is select in the variable screen.
    i created one more RKF with the same GL's but i restrict that RKF also with fix 0Calmonth say DEC2008.
    but the problem is when i run the report it shows me that data correct, but when i bring the 0CALMONTH on top of the Key Figure structure it only show me the data for selected month for the fix month RKF the result come empty.
    my requirement is that i have to select month range and i need to show every month value minus the Dec2008 value, this only works if i donot bring the 0CALMONTH on top of Key figure structure but i want to keep it on the top of KF structure so i can show each month value - dec2008 value.
    Please explain how can i control this.
    Kind regards,

    Dear Chandu.
    I am creating the RKF on Cummulative Balance KF by restricting it with some combinations of GL's, let say the name of RKF is TRADE_Accounts.
    My requirement is to give Calmonth selection from the variable in interval let say from 01.2009 - 05.2009
    i simply want to display TRADE_Account balance for each month in selection but by doing the minus the value of Trade_Account from the same RKF i.e. TRADE_Account_2 which i restrict on DEC2008.
    so i created Two RKF for KF cummulative balance one is restricted with 0CALMONTH value for DEC2008 only.
    then i create on CKF let TRADE_BALANCE = TRADE_Account2008 - TRADE_Account.
    and place the CKF in Key Figure Structure, it work fine but problem comes when i try to bring 0CALMonth on top of key figure structure so i can show the result for each selected month.
    when i do this it only shows the Balance for selected months but it did not minus it with the other RKF i.e. TRADE_Account2008.
    when for testing i also put the TRADE_Account2008 in Key figure structure it shows empty result when the 0CALMONTH is on top of the Key figure structure.
    Please explain how can i achieve this.
    Kind regards,

  • Deleting Restricted Key Figures

    I've tried to delete a restricted key figure but after confirming that I do want to delete it, it still appears in the Restricted Key Figures list!
    Is there something I'm not doing?

    Hi,
    If you have got confirmation message that the KF has beed deleted and it is still showing in query designer, then Logoff from Bex and relogin and see.
    If you have not got any such message then check whether this RKF is used in some other queries and remove it from these queries and then delete it.

  • Can we suppress the key figure from the filter values?

    Hi,
    I have one restricted key figure.
    1) Is it possible to hide the key figure for calender year 2009 and display it for year 2010. I mean can we hide the column dynamically?
    2) Can we grey out the key figure from filter criteia so that it cannot be checked for specific calender year?
    eg if i have 3 key figures as One , Two , Three.
    In filter , it will show One , two ,  three  and the checkbox . Is it possible to grey out the checkbox so that user will not be able to check it or tick it?
    Regards!

    Hi,
    1) I don't think we can hide it dynamically.
    2) I dont think we can give such a option in the query designer.can you explain what is ur exact requirement.
