Running data providers based on other data provider results in webi

Hi,
Thank you all; this is a great place to look for answers whenever you stumble in BO.
I got a specific requirement for a Webi report. The report should display the associated metrics only when the total surveyed members are greater than 25, if not, N/A.
This requirement happens to be a new add on for the already existing report; the report was built with multiple providers, in which one of the providers gives the total surveyed members.
Is there any way that we can control the rest of the data providers based on the first data provider output. I donu2019t want to run the rest of the data providersu2014 as there are too many, and each takes quite a bit of timeu2014 if the surveyed members are less than or equal to 25.
We are on XI3.1 Sp3
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the quick response!
Vills u2013 Is it query from the results functionality that you are talking about? I tried this approach, but as I am using the measure in the filter of the 2nd data provider (total members > 25),and the resulting SQL is not getting parsed.
Waveryu2014 The report filter that I tried to use is not working. Can you please give me some more details how to use it?
As I would like to leverage the existing report, which perfectly works for the total members> 25 logic, I was asked to find a way to not to run the rest of the data providers to save db resources, provided if the total mbrs participated in the survey from the first data provider <25.
Is there any way that we can embed some case statement in the other data providers to make them run or throw an error message depending on member count?
To give some more understanding, I want to provide you the screen shots of the queries, but I am unable to paste those screen shots here .
Essentially I am looking for is there any way to use one data provideru2019s output as a trigger for the rest of the data providers?

Running Aging reports based on Document date in 2007

Hi All,
I have an issue while running the Receivables aging report in the 2007 version. The customer usually runs the reports based on the document date. Document date holds more importance in their case.
However, in the 2007 version, the aging report is totally governed by the posting date. For example, if I change the aging date, the posting date also changes to the aging date and viceversa. If I want to change the aging date to 01/31/09, the posting date u2018Tou2019 automatically changes to 01/31/09 and when we run the report, it will bring in all transactions until the posting date of 01/31/09.
But, the requirement is to leave the posting date as blank and give the document date u2018Tou2019 01/31/09. This will then pull all transactions until the document date of 01/31/09 irrespective of the posting date.
As a result, when you run the balance sheet with the document date of 01/31/09, receivables show a different balance. This discrepancy is due to the fact that AR Receivable aging report forces to keep the Aging date = Posting date.
This was not the case in SAP 2005 version where we were allowed to key in the aging date and the document date to get results based on document date.
This is very critical as they have recently upgraded from 2005 to 2007 and they are unable to reconcile the balances out of Balance sheet and Aging.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Payal

Hi Jitin,
We tried that as well but no luck. There is still a discrepency between what the aging shows and what the BS shows. When we put the Aging date as 01/31/09 and Document date as 01/3109, the posting date 'To' is automatically filled with 01/31/09, so it basically searches for all transactions with the posting date 01/31/09 and document date 01/31/09. This is not the requirement as we do not want to consider the posting date at all while running the aging.
I also have some screenshots if I can share. I am not sure if I should report this to SAP for further investigation or am I missing something here.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Payal

Sort all the Records in Data manager based on Update Date

How to sort the reocrds in Data Manager based on Date or something ?
And also I have three records for a same customer in ( for three different company codes ) and when I search for this customer with the Customer number then it is showing three records , but when I search with Update Date then no records are fetched ...what is the reason ?

If you make a field as type "Time Stamp" in your data model using the MDM Console, make sure that the option Sort Index is set to Normal. If this is the case, whenever a record is updated in the repository, the date will be updated. If the sort index is normal, then MDM will allow you to sort the records based on the date and time by which they were updated. You can do this by finding your time stamp field in the MDM data manager and clicking on it. If there is an up and down arrow next to the name of your field, it means it can be sorted. Also, to answer your other question, you can definitely search based on date. Use the Free-Form Search on the left hand side of the data manager at the bottom of the screen. Simply select a date, and it will show you all the records updated on that date.

Data changed based on current date in Bex

Hi Gurus,
   Hope you are all doing good ! I have a scenario in queries in Bex. When the query is executed the current system date must be captured and the data must be divided by the count of the previous months.
   For instance if the query is executed today the data must be divided by 1 ( for jan)
   if it is executed next month, then the data muset be divided by 2 ( jan + feb ).
   Is there any COUNT variable in Bex ? Any idea how this could be done?
Points would be assigned for sure.
Regards,
Sunitha.R

Sunitha,
    You should create a variable which is not user entry and user exit as processing type. Based upon the date entered you should write code in CMOD to derive the figure with which you can divide the amount.
The logic can be something like this:...
If the user enters     period like 02.2207(feb 2007), then you can pass value as 2 for the variable newly created. This is a simple code which can be written easily if you have ABAP knowledge.
Try it out.....

Date Range based on print date

What would be the formula for a date range that references the most recent 7am-7am period from the print date?

What would be the formula for a date range that references the most recent 7am-7am period from the print date?
Assuming the print date is todays date, then this should work
in DateTime currentdate -1 +time (07, 00, 00) to DateTime currentdate +time (07, 00, 00)

Data filtering based on other Field

Hi,
Hi,
i am creating ADF 10g Form based on the Web service data control. on the form a InventoryItem Drop Down List and a Serial Number Drop Down List. if i select a Inventoryitem item from the list i have to get the serial numbers in the serialnumber dropdown list based on the selected inventory item. can any one tell me how can i achieve this ....
as i am using Web service Data Control method for dragging the method.. the wsdc and viewObjects DataControl created from Model Jpr does not have any link. here how we have to link both the above fields if i use the Dependent List
Edited by: Naveenapps on Sep 11, 2009 1:14 AM

Hi
Can you explain in a bit more detail on what the webservice is doing ? Is the inventory item a parameter to a web service method that returns the serial numbers ? Or is it that the Inventory is comming from the BC4J data control and you want a selection in that list to be passed as a parameter to a WSDC method ?
Thanks
Vinay.

Disaggreation of one data set based on another data set

Hi All,
We are using Hierarchy based IP implementation using disaggregation option in the input ready query definition.
We have a requirement as follows:
1. Disaggregate version 200 based on Version 100.
So, we have defined an input ready query, which would contain two columns one with the restriction tor the version 200 and one with restriction on version 100. We have hidden the column with restriction on version 100.
Now, in the disaggregation properties of the column with restriction on version 200, we have turned on the disaggreation with reference to the column with restriction on version 100.
When the query executed, it is doing always the equal distribution of the toal entered rather than doing the distribution as per the reference column.
We can do work around using Distribution by reference, but not sure, whether the function can handle hierarchies. Best is to solve by the Input Ready Query disaggregation settings.
Please let us know if you have any idea on how you have solved this issue, or is this a bug? I will openup a message with SAP after today.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
- Shashi

Hi Shashi ,
I have used this disaggregate property available in the query. It is working fine. In my case i am not hiding the reference key nor the dependent characteristics, so it is not giving any problem.
There might be some problem in distribution if your reference data has some particular combinations of characteristics and in the planning layout you are trying to hide some of the characteristics that are present in your refernce data.
Please check.
For more details check this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/0c033316cd2bc4e10000000a114cbd/frameset.htm
You can also try the planning function Distribution by reference, I am not sure whether it will work for hierarchy or not but you can give it a try.

Extracting Movement type wise data(MSEG) based on posting date from 0IC_C03

Hi Experts,
I have implemented 0IC_C03 in devlopment client and preparing a Physical Inventory report.
I want to know if I can directly extract the fugures such as Process Loss, Sales, Sales Return, Transfer In and transfer out from the cube 0IC_C03 so, my question is ...
Is it possible to extract the movement type wise data as in MSEG from any KF of 0IC_C03 ?? If its possible which particular KF should I use from the cube ??
Please respond at the earliest.
Thanks,
Romil

Hi,
You can extract 0RECTOTSTCK & 0ISSTOTSTCK from 0IC_C03 but you need put corresponding Movment type for each
you can't put 0TOTALSTCK, it is Non-cumulative key fig,
even all key fig except Non-Cumulative key Fig like (0TOTALSTCK , 0VALSTCKQTY , 0VALSTCKVAL.....) can be extracted
Best Regards

CSS sheet covers up date drop down, and other Date field issues

Portland needs a little help once again.
My CSS stylesheet object acts like it has a higher "zIndex" then the date dropdown on an inputField. This causes me to only see half the calendar or none of it. Anyone else seen this and how did you get around it.
Also, When I test my BSP page the date drop downs, tables, etc all look great. However when the BSP page is rendered on an iView in EP6.0 they look terrible. Colors change, etc. What is happening here and how do I get around it.
Much Thanks in Advance,
Anthony

How can I change the location where iTunes saves iOS 5.1, new data, synchronized apps and other data?

My hard drive C is full. I changed the location of the mediathek to an external hard drive F and moved all media data there. Also, I synchronized my iPad with this new set-up. So far, everything worked out well.
Now, why is iTunes stll saving data, like the much needed iOS 5.1, to C? This actually makes it impossible for me to finally update my iPad, because my C drive is simply full!
Also, iTunes does not synchronize my iPad apps or my photos. When I try to synchronize them manually, iTunes starts to save data to my C drive. How can I change that to my external drive F?
In a nutshell, how can I move iTunes once and for all to my external hard drive F (or at least, to a different hard drive on my computer)? There is simply no space on my C drive for it at all.
Thankyou so much for an answer, I am literally going nuts right now!

Is there a way to calculate a date field based on aother date field in sharepoint list?

In a SharePoint list, I have a 'Start of Use Date' and need to ensure the 'Review Date' is no more than 14 months after the 'Start of Use Date', but can't figure out the formula. Can you help?

You can cast the field values in the SPListItem to DateTime objects and call the AddMonths(int) function to see if the two are more than 14 months apart. For instance:
DateTime startOfUseDate = (DateTime) item["Start of Use Date"];
DateTime reviewDate = (DateTime) item["Review Date"];
if (startOfUseDate.AddMonths(14) >= reviewDate)
// Review Date IS NOT more than 14 months after Start of Use Date
else
// Review Date IS more than 14 months after Start of Use Date

How change the Date parameter based on server date

Hi,
We are using Query browser to connect to Bex Query.In BEx Query we have a date prompt which is mandatory.So by using Query prompt selector the dashboard has been created.But in our scenario the date has to be picked up from current system date/Server date and it has to change automatically when ever the dashboard has been opened.How to achieve this.
Regards,
Venkat

Using the query prompt selector, the date will be listed in the drop down box. Here you can see only the date available in the server. Use the "Insert selected items" option you can pass the current date using =today() function.
But the pain behind using the query prompt selector on date you have scroll a lot to search for a specific date, on this case i would suggest you to take the calender component to trigger the query. You have the same flexibility to pass the current date in this component.

Report Builder Wizard and Parameter Creation with values from other data source e.g. data set or views for non-IT users or Business Analysts

Hi,
"Report Builder is a report authoring environment for business users who prefer to work in the Microsoft Office environment.
You work with one report at a time. You can modify a published report directly from a report server. You can quickly build a report by adding items from the Report Part Gallery provided by report designers from your organization." - As mentioned
on TechNet.
I wonder how a non-technical business analyst can use Report Builder 3 to create ad-hoc reports/analysis with list of parameters based on other data sets.
Do they need to learn TSQL or how to add and link parameter in Report Builder? then How they can add parameter into a report. Not sure what i am missing from whole idea behind Report builder then?
I have SQL Server 2012 STD and Report Builder 3.0 and want to train non-technical users to create reports as per their need without asking to IT department.
Everything seems simple and working except parameters with list of values e.g. Sales year List, Sales Month List, Gender etc. etc.
So how they can configure parameters based on Other data sets?
Workaround in my mind is to create a report with most of columns and add most frequent parameters based on other data sets and then non-technical user modify that report according to their needs but that way its still restricting users to
a set of defined reports?
I want functionality like "Excel Power view parameters" into report builder which is driven from source data and which is only available Excel 2013 onward which most of people don't have yet.
So how to use Report Builder. Any other thoughts or workaround or guide me the purpose of Report Builder, please let me know.
Many thanks and Kind Regards,

Hi Asam,
If we want to create a parameter depend on another dataset, we can additional create or add the dataset, embedded or shared, that has a query that contains query variables. Then use the option that “Get values from a
query” to get available values. For more details, please see:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd283107.aspx
