Retraction problem, key figure mapping

Hello guys:
I am using the retraction function to retract activity data from BPS to R/3.
I have created the sender structure and now I am creating the mapping rules.
For the characteristics, there is no problem, but for the key figures, if I input a field name in the Sender FLd column, then I must enter a value in the "Sender fld val" column,could you tell me what is the use of this column?
I also click the "create proposal for value", it fill the key figure field name in the formula column, but when I run a check, the proposed rules is wrong.
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Eric

Hi Eric
You can maintain the parameters of retraction with transaction UBP_STRUCT

Change in Key figures for COPA report

Hi
We have changed some formula using T.code KER1 for a element of Key figure scheme which is used in COPA report.
How do we find out which all COPA reports will get impacted by this change.
Regards,
Rams

that key figure mapping helps you to map the value fields to the std fields (the ones that are included in the std COPA content cubes.) So that you dont end up creating ur own Zfields in BI to correspond to the value fields. If you have a functional guy how can do the mapping or help u do it - go for it .... orelse you can always create ur own Z objects, so that you dont have to go back to source system to figure which IO refers to which value field.

Query problem with accumulated key figures

Hi BI Gurus!
I have a report problem that I hope you can help me with!
In my report I have 2 key figures. One for accumulated revenue previous year (KF1) and one for accumulated revenue current year (KF2). Both key figures should be presented in a graph in monthly buckets.
January figures from both the key figures shoule be presented in the same bucket. Therfore I can't use 0CALYEAR since we have the "year" information in there. Instead I'm using 0CALMONTH2 which is only two digits, 01 for January. That way I can map figures from both previous year and current year in the same bucket.
I need the figures to be accumulated and this is what I have problem with. When I run the report today in February 2010 it looks like this:
Month   KF1   KF2
01        10     15
02        10     20
03        15
04        10
05        20
06        10
07        10
08        15
09        15
10        20
11        20
12        10
This is how I would like the report to look like:
Month   KF1   KF2
01        10     15
02        20     35
03        35
04        45
05        65
06        75
07        85
08        100
09        115
10        135
11        155
12        165
I have tried to use the setting "accumulated" for the key figures but then I get this result:
Month   KF1   KF2
01        10     15
02        20     35
03        35     35
04        45     35
05        65     35
06        75     35
07        85     35
08        100   35
09        115   35
10        135   35
11        155   35
12        165   35
Since the KF2 is revenue for current year and I run the report in February I don't want any figures to be displayed in Mars...
I have tried to restrict the key figures by 0CALMONTH2 and 0CALYEAR. The KF1 is havein a restriction to only show values for 0CALYEAR - 1 and an interval for 0CALMONTH2 from JAN - DEC.
The KF2 is having a restriction to only show values in the interval "first month in year - current month" (in this example JAN - FEB) for 0CALMONTH2. And current year for 0CALYEAR.
Despite my restrictions for KF2 the numpers repeats itself for every month...
Any suggestion how I can resolve this?
Best regards
Anders Florin

Hi Khaled and thank you for trying to help me!
I agree with you and think the users should accept the report as it is. But they are claiming that top management will not accept this and they would really want this to be fixed the whay that they want. I have tried to push back on this and said that I'm not sure that it can be resoleved and that it could cost them a lot of money if I try.
But I will try to resolve it for them if I have spare time in the end of the project. I have not promised them anything but it would really be nice if I could fix it.
So when you say I need to use a structure and a calculated key figure. How should the calculated key figure and the structure be configured?
If I use a structure in the rows I guess I can't use same object in calc.key.figure right? Like if I use 0CALMONTH2 in the structure I'm not able to restrict the key figure with the same object? If that is correct I also have a ZMONTH object, different story why I have that... , that I can use in the same way as 0CALMONTH2. Or is this only a problem when I use "local" formulas within the query and not using a "global" calculated key figure? Cause I have only used the "loacal" formula calculated key figure in this report....

Cockpit report-mapping of key figures in WAD

Hi,
I'm working on a cockpit report wich consist of several different key figures combined together and shown for various months + some planning values. The key figures come from a multitude of infoproviders (and applications). So you would have a plan value, a value month -1, a value month -2 and a value current month on the X-axis and than the different kind of key figures (for instance: financial result, costs, number of employees, absence % etc.) on the Y-axis. Hereby the number of digits can differ per keyfigure, as well as the scaling factor, and some key figures require a %-sign.
On top of this there are several key figures that combine data from different providers (let's say: financial result divided by number of technical installations).
Now this can never be done in a query. Even the just the financial block would require key figures on both X- and Y-axis wich is not possible (and wouldn't make any sense in a logical way), not even mentioning the key figures that combine data from totally different applications. Now what I'm looking for is a way to map the query results to create the required report. If we'd only use the analyzer it wouldn't be a problem since I could put the queries on one tab and then use Excel functionality to map them to the fields and to be able to decide per cell how it should be formatted (with regard to number of digits for instance, wich can differ per cell). Since no navigation other than a selection on year/month is required this would do.
The only problem is that the client wishes to use web fucntionality. So now I'm looking for a way to do the same in the WAD. However I can't find a substitute in the WAD for the Excel functionality that is required to link query results to cells in the final report, nor to format each cell individually. My only solution (wich only solves the first problem) is one that constitutes of a large number of APD's that are used to get the query results into a DSO wich uses one key figure for al numerical info and some characteristics for the specification of the actual key figure that it represents.
First of all this solution is rather cumbersome and second, it doesn't solve my second problem (because the actual report consists of only one key figure for wich I can set the number of digits only for the entire column.
Big question is, is there anybody who has a more satisfying solution tho this problem. I'd think that there are a lot more companies that use reports that consist of key figures from different applications combined together in the way I described. However I could'nt find much on the inetrnet with concern to this matter.
By the way, I'm sorry for the poor lay out of this post, but no matter what I try, this forum ignores the use of the enter key and spaces.

Hi Priya,
Most likely, you have too many figures to display. You need to hide or add some drilldowns (or KFs in BEx) just to leave what you want to show in graph. Then select an area in Excel and use a standard Excel functionality to show graphs.

Problem in Calculated Key Figure in BEx 7.0

Hi All,
In Bex 7.0
We have a requirement where we need to display a key figure which is having unit price of an Article. In our InfoProvider we have Article, Store and Date and the report is based on Article. As we have to display only the latest price we have created a RKF by putting a restrcition of the latest date in the date range on the the unit price key figure. But still unit price is getting aggregated over stores.
For example if there are 10 stores and the unit price of an article is 5, then data displayed is 50 and not 5.
We tried to create a Calculated Key Figure using the above RKF and an exception aggregation Average of all detailed value that are not zero, null or error on reference characteristic 0PLANT. Its working fine when the query is restricted to one or two Articles. But for all the articles it gives the following error messages.
1. Error while reading data; navigation is possible.
2. Error occurred during parallel processing of query 17; RC3
3. Error executing physical plan: AttributeEngine: no 6952
4. Error reading the data of infoprovider ZXMSC01$X
5. Amount of data that is to be read from the BIA server is too large
6. The following error 6952 occurred in BIA server
7. Error executing physical plan: AttributeEngine: not enough memory;BwPopMerge pop1(setIsLastMerge(1)),in executor::Executor in cube: p03_zxmsc01
Can anyone tell me the solution for the above error. Or if there is a workaround to our requirement.
Regards,
Sachin

Hi,
Could be a memory issue.
One of your cube in on BIA which is causing the Problem.
So executing the query in RSRT by selecting Do not use BIA index option.
If the query is executed with out any issue then take the cube out of BIA and push it back.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Raghu
P.S : Also please let us know if this query is live and it is an issue that you are facing after executing it properly for few days.
Or this is a new query created and testing now and in the process got this error?

Problem with Overwrite for Key Figures in ODS

A bit of a long explanation, but the problem is not so complicated...
We have an ODS containing contract line items. Each line item has a key figure "Total Contract Target" that is marked with update type "overwrite". We have modified the extractor that delivers data for this ODS so that the key figure is set to a value from the contract header. Since we don't want the key figure to be duplicated if there are multiple line items on the contract, the user exit for the extractor modifies only the first line item delivered.
For example, overall contract target value = 100. Contract has 3 line items. Contract target value for line item 1 is 100. Target value for line item 2 and 3 is 0.
This all works fine for initial loads, but there is a problem with the business content extractor for deltas. Whenever a single change is made, it delivers three sets of records. Continuing the example, we would receive 9 records for the contract (3 sets of 3 line items). Each of the three sets contains the same records. Only the first set has the correct contract target value. Since the ODS key figure is set to overwrite, our method of setting the total contract value in the first record doesn't work, because the extractor delivers duplicates so the duplicates overwrite the total with a 0.
Would setting the key figure for total contract value to update type "additive" solve this? (I'm concerned that additions would be made if there were only a change to characteristics and not the key figure). Thanks for your assistance.

Since we ought to post solutions to problems we discover for people who search this forum...
Solved this by modifying the customer exit for the extractor to set the key figure for the first contract line item encountered AND for all subsequent records with the same contract number / contract line item. Since the key figure in the ODS is set to overwrite, this makes sure that the last record written doesn't overwrite the key figure with 0.

Currency translation problem for calculated key figure

Hi All
I have a problem with the currency translation for a calculated key figure.
I have a requirement to show the MM consignment stock value in the specified currency from the selection screen.
For consignment stock, there is no value maintained in the system. So for this we need to calculate the value as below
Restricted key figure: RKFConsignment stock: Total stock with special stock indicator restriction "K"
Calculated keyfigure: Consignment stock value = Nodim( RKFConsignment stock) * (Standard cost / price unit).
Here, in the calculated keyfigure properties --> I have used a currency translation for the 0CALMONTH.
The query has selection on the 0calmonth.
But in the result the I am getting unexpected results.
Do we have any inconsistencies in the currency translation on the formulas?
Please help me on this.
Regards
S.R

Hi All
I have noticed something. I changed my query date selection to Calendar day - Keydate instead of calendar month.
And I have changed the currency variable to fixed exchange rate "CHF", it is working fine.
I think I have some problem with the currency translation variable.
Could anyone of you please send me the currency translation variable for Calendar month with the below parameters
exch rate type : M
Time reference : 0CALMONTH
End of month
Target currency for a variable : < var created on 0currency>
For my report, i need calendar month selection, currency selection.
Please help me with your ideas.
Thank you

Key Figure can't find mapping in transfer rules

Hi,
I am trying to validate some data for datasource 2LIS_12_VCITM. I went through the transfer structure and it has the mapping of LFIMG Actual quantity delivered (in sales units) to 0DLV_QTY. However, when I tried to validate the key figure data, this field LFIMG supposedly has the quantity value for the key figure InfoObject name other than 0DLV_QTY. Why is this? I can't seem to do a 1-to-1 mapping of the key figures to the fields from the R3 table.

Problem with Non-cumulative key figure.

Hi all,
I am facing the problem with the Non-cumulative Key Figure (Quantity). I have created and loaded data to the non-cumulative InfoCube. This cube is defined by me to test the non-cumulative key figure.
In BEx query the non-cumulative key figure and cumulative key figure (Value change) both display same values, i.e. non-cumulative key figure contains the same values which we have loaded for cumulative value change. Non-cumulative key figure is not calculated based on associated cumulative key figure.
I have done the following while defining the non-cumulative InfoCube:
1. Created a non-cumulative key figure which is associated with a cumulative key figure (value change).
2. Loaded data to non-cumulative InfoCube from flat file.
3. Compressed data in non-cumulative InfoCube after the load.
Note:
1. Validity area is determined by the system based on the minimum and maximum date in data.
2. Validity determining characteristic, 0CALDAY is the default characteristic selected by the system.
Is there any other settings to be done?
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks and regards
Pruthvi R

Being a non-cumulative KF, total stock is automatically takes care of that.
Try putting all the restrictions which you have included for total receipts and total issues, for eg, restrict Total Stock with the movement types used in Receipts as well as Issues.
Check and revert.

Problem with displaying key figures in report

Does anyone have experience with SAP Report Designer for Release 7.0. I want to display key figures in the following manner: 1'500 (Which means 1.500.000) For a billion the value displaye should be 1''000 (1.000.000.000).
1000 =     1.000
0'010 =     10.000
0'100 =     100.000
1'000 =     1.000.000
0''010 =     10.000.000
0''100 =     100.000.000
1''000 =     1.000.000.000
Thus the report always shows 4 digit figures. The problem is that I don't know how to include the apostophe as a separator for the million.
Additionaly to that I want to have the font changed to a smaller number, if the figure is to large for the column. Is there a possibity to change the display of the figure with the scaling? And is there a possibility to change the font? These two parameters have to be decided when running the report. (The scale of the numbers can differ within one column.)

there is two way to display the values , one is globally, where u do it the keyfigure and another way is on the query designer level
in keyfigure go to aggregation , there u will get the number display format , u can change there and another way is in the query designer right click on the key figure and select properties and select display format

Problem with virtual Key Figure in a query

Hi Experts,
I would like to share my problem with the virtual key figure in a query:
I have a query with a virtual key figure and when I eject the query by analyzer, the result sometimes is displayed and sometimes is not displayed (is equal to 0), with the same initials values. And when I eject the query by RSRT always display the result for the virtual key figure.
Why don't always display the result?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
I think that the problem is the level of support package. We have BI AddOn 7.X (based on 7.20) support package 0.
What do you think?

Problem in using characteristics as key figure

Hi,
I have a situation where I need to display booked site and closed site sales value and number of sites created in a particular period.
There is a job id under which multiple SO's can generated. First SO created for a particular job id is indicated by 1 in an indicator (say, ind-1) (which is a keyfigure) and other all SO for that job id are marked as 0 in that indicator. Not booked site can be identified by summing up the indicator values job id wise. Say I have 5 job ids, then my sum will be 5. No problem in that.
Now the invoice generated for the last SO will be marked as 1 and other all as 0. But the indicator (say, ind-2) used here is characteristic of type numc. So I have created a formula variable using replacement path as processing type and reference characteristics as ind-2 which can be used as a key figure. But the result I am getting is in two rows for each job id, i.e., 0 and 1. How to resolve these into single row for each job id and get the result as 1.
Regards,
Sumit

Hi Sumit,
Until this point you have just done nice. Now at this point you can create a selection; include ind-1 kyf in the selection and ind-2 characteristic as cosntant selection. Then add a condition on mark to show values greater than 0. Then you can get a result with one row each 1.

Problem in using formula when key figure is commulative

Hi all ,
I am problem in generating the report when we use the of cummulative key figure to the formula..
consider the following senerio..
Date      KF1 KF2 KF1(C) Kf2(C) Formula (KF1(C) - KF2(C)
5.10.2005 1   2   1       2      -1 (wrong result)
6.10.2005 3   4   4(1+3) 6      -1
7.10.2005 5   6   9(4+5) 12     -1
System is taking the actual KF1data is subtracted with KF2 data it not taking cummulative data, Actually my requirement i want to subract the cummulative data between two key figure (ie KF1(c)-KF2(c))
My Required Output:
Date      KF1 KF2 KF1(C) Kf2(C) Formula (KF1(C) - KF2(C)
5.10.2005 1   2   1       2            -1 (Correct)
6.10.2005 3   4   4(1+3) 6            -2 (4-6)
7.10.2005 5   6   9(4+5) 12           -3 (9-12)
pls let through the lights on the above issues.
with Regards,
Hari

Hi Murali..
Thanks a lot, now i got a proper output and working fine..
what i did yesterday was i have creted a two key figure as a cummulative key figure ..
and when i try to subtract two cummulative key figure system is subtracting with actual key figure and hence i got wrong result.
Today i did same thing, only diffence is i made the third formula key figure as cummulative ..
With regarsds,

Map Datasource field NUMC to Cube Key Figure

Hi ,
How do we go about mapping a NUMC field from the datasource to a Key figure(DEC) in an InfoCube?

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for your answer, first i unmapped in transfer rules as per your sugession and executed the infopackage but the data has come when i was unmapped in update rules the data has not come.
My doubt is when i was unmapped in TR even though the data has come, so what is the use of unmapped here.
and how to unmapped char
please clarify my doubt

Mapping of BI Key figures to BPC Amount

Hi All,
I want to know that how do we map the key figures in BI cube to BPC Amount.
I have also gone through Pravin Datar's Blog ( /people/pravin.datar/blog/2009/04/16/loading-transactional-data-from-any-infocube-to-bpc-application-in-bpc7nw
) regarding it but didn't find the solution.
All the key figures are suggested to be mapped to Amount, but it will not work as whole data will come in amount only. So please suggest me
1. how to proceed with the mapping of different key figures in BI to BPC Amount.
2. Also do we have to create a seperate dimension to hold all these key figures.
Please help me in above doubts.
Thanks in advance
Sanjay

HI sanjay,
Are you talking about the situation in which multiple key figures are to be mapped to single Signdata in BPC?
if that is the case, there is a possibilty in BI where u can create BI cube with single keyfigure and load the data to it by using rule groups option in BI transformations. fields can be transformed below manner.
BI cube with multiple KFs.
Field 1     Field 2     Fin year end     Quarter     M1     M2     M3
B     IN     2008     1     100     50     80
D     US     2008     2     150     200     250
C     ZY     2008     3     75     450     55
Transformed BI cube structure
Field 1     Field 2     Fin year end     Quarter     Month     KF

D     US     2008     2     7     150
D     US     2008     2     8     200
D     US     2008     2     9     250

this can be achieved using Rule groups technique in BI transformations
