Restricting key figure using 0infoprovider

Hi Experts
My query is buily on a multiprovider (which is built on 10 cubes)
I need to restrict key figures in the query so that every KF will search a particular cube, instead of searching all the cubes. because of this query performance is very poor.
We use 10 RKF in that query. I know that we can restrict them it using 0infoprovider.
Now my question - Do we have to restrict the original key figure using which we created RKF or can i just restrict RKF.
Another question - If we have restrict RKF, then in global window (this will affect all the query using tht rKF)or at local level.
Thanks

Hi,
Now my question - Do we have to restrict the original key figure using which we created RKF or can i just restrict RKF.
You can simply add the restriction in the RKF.
Another question - If we have restrict RKF, then in global window (this will affect all the query using tht rKF)or at local level
If RKF is getting used in multiple queries and you want it to restrict to same inforprovider for all the queries then you can restrict it at global level. But if you have different restrictions for different queries then you will have to create local RKF's and then use them in the individual queries.

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.

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

Problem with restricted key-figure using off-set variable

Hello Gurus,
I have created a query in Bex Query Designer with a key figure restricted. This key figure shows me the 0amount value for the last month. When I select 003.2009, the key figure brings the 002.2009 values. I used an off-set variable to do this
It works!
But when I show this key-figure in Webi, no value shows up on the table.
Any suggestions?
tks

Which variable are you using in BEx and in WEBI to restrict the month/year?

How to show filter values of restricted key figures in BEx Analyzer?

Hi,
I have following report.
                     Quantity USA        Quantity China
Product           100                        150
Quantity USA is a restricted key figure using key figure 'quantity' and a restriction on characteristic 'country' = USA
Quantity China is a restricted key figure using key figure 'quantity' and a restriction on characteristic 'country' = China
I notice that when I put only one of these resticted key figures into the query, there is a line in the filter area of the report in the BEx Analyzer that shows the characteristic 'country' and the value on which it's restricted in the restricted key figures.
E.g.:
Country          USA
                     Quantity USA
Product           100
If I put both restricted key figures in the query, this line is not shown.
Does anyone of you know how I can display this line again when using multiple restricted key figures like this in the query?
Thanks!

Restricted Key figure - Displaying as normal number instead of currency

Hello,
I'm creating a restricted key figure using 0AMOUNT which of course is currency, however in the cube that I'm using 0AMOUNT is used for both Dollars and Quantities. The problem is 1) it is always displaying a $ symbol in front of the key figure and 2) it seems when I try to create a calculated key figure and try to add the 0AMOUNT to another 0QUANTITY infoObject I get an error (I'm presumming because I'm trying to add a number to a currency infoObject).
So my question(s) are 1) Can I format my new restricted key figure to always display as Quantity even though it's a currency info object
and 2) Can I do a calculated key figure adding a Currency InfoObject to a Quantity infoObject?
Thank you very much!
-Patrick

1) For your first question, u don't to have the currency dollar displayed for the restricted 0amount instead you want the unit of quanity.?if you want to do this,you could make use of Excel's format options i.e go to
format-->.Style->Select the stdBexInput item and make the appropriate settings.
2) You can use NODIM() function to add two different keyfigures.

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.

Create restricted key figure with navigation attributes

Hi,
I need to create a restricted key figure using attributes of 0BP_COMPET.
On my report is :
Competitors (0BP_COMPET)
Quantity
Active Competitors = Expiry Date of Minority Status greater than or equal to system date
Inactive Competitors = Expiry Date of Minority Status less than to system date
Note : Expiry Date of Minority Status is a navigation attribute of 0BP_COMPET and system date is generate by variable 0DAT - Current Calendar Day (SAP Exit).
How can i apply the formula?
Thanks

Restricted key figure doesn't work when restricted objected used in Structure

Hi Experts,
We've a requirement where user wants to restrict ABC key figure with z object. This z objects also used in structure as well, because of that this restricted key figure is not working.
We understand it can't be used in two structure and user wants to keep this object in structure as well.
Is there a workaround to make it work?
Requirement brief overview:
Say I've restricted key figure gross avail percentage and which is restricted by retail group A and B. This retail group is also used in Structure as well (in row). As said users want to keep retails group in structure and want to restrict only one key figure with two retail group A and B.
But this combination is not working. Please can someone recommend any other way to achieve this requirement.
Thanks,

Hi Yasmine,
Yes, I've reloaded the data again. Also, I've mapped correctly in cube. But still I can't see data.
I've checked customer master data , there is no data for this field.
In transformation I've mapped retail group with the new field as well.
When I tried to activate master data , it's saying it's possible only via attribute change run.
I've realised 0CUSTOMER_ZRETGRP (old field) also used in two aggregates.
Do I need to add this in aggregates?
How to activate master data so data will appear in cube?
Is there any programme to activate via attribute change run?
Thanks

The use of restricted key figures in real time scenario

Hi all,
Please let me know the use of restricted key figures in real-time business scenarios....plz someone explain it with example...
Also, can restricted keys be defined globally with same infoprovider...???????????
Your response is thankfully acknowledged,
thanks and regards,
shalini.

Hi,
You can restrict the key figures of an InfoProvider for reuse by selecting one of 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. Which means you can define and use them globally in reporting for a particular infoprovider.
Example:
You have to show the sales for different product typessay 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, for a company code.
now you can define a RKF with company code and sales keyfigure.
In the report, in columns, you use this RKF in new selection and restrict it with product type in 6 diff columns.
New Selection.
Restrict it with RKF
Restrict it with product type 1.
similarly for others..
Hope this helps you....

How to find which Restricted Key Figures are using a specific hierararchy??

Hi
I was able to find a solution
I built a new dataset in report builder using the same table as before but tried out the "Group and Aggregate" function and for the case_ship
field I chose "Sum" as my aggregate.... In essence this gave me a very cool and easy daliy sum of the shipped cases.
When I used this new dataset and built my matrix report I was able to easily get the max daily shipment for each product by week, month and
year.

Adding key figures using commands in Web Application Designer?

Hello, all.
I have a query the contains several key figures. From that query, I created a query view in which only one of the key figures is displayed. I'm using this query view for one of the data providers in a web template. In Web Applicaiton Designer, I would like to be able to hide the key figure from the data provider and show a different one. How can I accomplish this using the built-in commands?
I know I can hide all key figures using the CLEAR_SELECTION_STATE command, but I can't figure out how to use a command such as SET_SELECTION_STATE_SIMPLE to show a different key figure. Any help would be great! Thanks.

I've tried that using the GUI to configure the command, but WAD crashes when I try to open the window where I choose the member name. The error says:
"4A6DM1A4LTXPJKA1BA3LD9TTD is not a valid characteristic for InfoProvider MQM_M01."
I also tried entering the commands as you suggested in the XHTML editor, but that resulted in an error when I tried to execute the command.
Maybe I can do what I'm trying to do using some method other than changing key figures. Basically all I want do is change the date range of the data shown using offsets.
The key figures that I'm trying to add and remove are restricted in Query Designer to different date ranges. These date ranges use offsets to set the restriction. For example, one key figure is restricted to display values for only the last 7 days and I'm trying to replace it with a key figure that's restricted to the last 14 days.
If I knew how to set a filter with offsets using commands in WAD, then I'd use that method, instead. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

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,

One Variable 2 Restricted key figures on 2 different Dimensions

Hi all,
Here is my problem:
I have a cube based on SD sales items. I want to calculate 2 retricted key figures on the 0net_value retricted by a date.
The first key would be restricted by the installation date, and the second one by the cancellation date.
Those two dates are set using a user input.
When I try to do this here the error message I get:
"Variable ZD_CSDATE is used in both (structure) element EL099Z0TL38F14TMC6AL7XKQD, and element EN4ZFAZEYGZ36B06JU04297W5 for various characteristics (0CANC_DATE, 0UCINSTDATE). This is not permitted as the characteristic is required for the F4 value help structure."
I created 2 variables set by customer exit, this solve the problem but is not convenient at all. So who could use one and only one variable or how can create a variable by copy of another one?
Thanks
Matthieu


Hi
 
I am sure you can make more than one Restricted Key Figures which are restricted to same variable value for some Characteristic. And secondly there is no easy copy and paste option to create 2 Customer Exit Variables. You need to find out the ABAP Code written using T-Code: CMODE for the Variable Exit and there you can copy and paste a part of this code to populate new variable. If you check the ABAP Code, you would understand what I am saying. 
I am more surprised at that F4 Help in the error message. Please investigate more in that direction.
 Hope it helps.
 
Cheers

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.
I posted one OSS Notes regarding this urgent issue. But got no reply from SAP.
FYI: We are using BEx 3.5 Browser SAP GUI 6.4 Patch 20 BW Patch 11
