Selections in BEx query designer

Hi,
I have object apparaisal rating scale compounded with rating value.
Rating scale can have values : A,B,C and rating value : 1,2,3..etc
Suppose I want to count total emplooyees in rating value 1
So in selections It shows values available for restriction as :
A / 1
B / 1
C / 1
A / 2
B / 2
.But when I Select A / 1 and move to right it only displays as 1 and not A / 1.So is it actually counting all employees with scale A rating 1 or all employees with all scales rating 1?
If I want different scales for different years is this possible? Such that for 2009 use A / 1 and for 2010 use B / 1?
Thanks,
Prasanna N.

Hello Prasanna,
Please restrict rating scale (compounded key) in order to show A/1 B/2 ..etc separately. You can also create another char and concatenate the scale and value like A1, B2 or A2 then you will be able to restrict both at the same time. For this case, you will have 3 objects and you can just restrict scale and value separately, or by using the third object (concatenated) it allows you to restrict both together at the same time. It is more flexible.
Hope it is helpful,
Regards,
Meric

Constant Selection in BEx Query Designer on BI7

Hi guys
According to this blog <a href="/people/prakash.darji/blog/2006/09/19/the-hidden-secret-of-constant-selection Selection</a>, we can create constant selection on both Characteristics and Key figures. I understand how to do it with restricted key figures.
Can anyone give me a step by step guide on how to create constant selection for a Characteristic in BEx Query Designer on BI7. I can't find options for 'constant selection'
Or is this the same thing when you include or exclude values?

Thanks Krishna
I am actually using a Multiprovider for my queries but business requirements mean I need to create joins.
I am trying to avoid Infosets and I believe another way is to use the Constant Selection feature in Query Designer.
Going back to my previous posting, I know how this is done with a restricted KF but I don't know how when it comes to characteristics.
Can anyone help?

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.
Regards,
M.M

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)

New ratio doesn't appear in Bex Query designer

Hello Experts,
I added 2 ratios to my infocube. It activated without any problem. I then added these 2 ratios to my multiprovider and activated it after affecting them to the previous infocube.
Then I connected to the Bex query designer and loaded a report in order to add these ratios, but there are not available for selection in the Ratio menu of the multiprovider.
Has anyone faced this problem?
Thanks

Try reactivating the Multiprovider again and see if that works !
I had this issue earlier, where I couldn't see two of the newly added characteristics in the multiprovider. But simply reactivating the multiprovider solved my issue.

Usage of formulas in conditions in BEx Query Designer

Hi guys,
does anybody of you guys know, if it's possible to use the results of formulas in conditions? I tried it, but the result of the query was "No applicable data found", but there are data for the selection.
When I'm defining the condition with the key figure (no restricted or calculated key figure), then the query can be executed.
In my case, I like to define a condition based on a formula result. The value should only be displayed, when the result is greater than 30.
Any ideas or are there any bugy in the BEx Query Designer?
Thanks a lot + best regards,
Clemens

Hi Clemens,
I have created a condition in my own system based on formula and it works perfectly fine. Please check following points in your condition change mode,
1) Condition is marked as Active.
2) In the block "Evaluate condition below for" you will have to select "All characteristics in drilldown Independently". If you have selected combination of characteristics then you will have to maintain proper sequence otherwise your condition will not work.
3) In the next block when you set the condition, click on new, in the first block select your Formula from dropdown and set the proper operator in your case you will have to select "Greater than" in the next column set the value of key figure and just trasnfer it.
Now you are ready to use the condition.
Regards,
Durgesh.

Hello,
I have the same problem with Flat mode is not supported! at ... Characteristic.setHierarchy(Characteristic.java:335):
Open, close, reload of the query does not help.
Other SDN-thread "500 Internal Sever - Flat Mode is not Supported!" related to transaction RSRT.
Execution of query via RSRT works, but the problem still persists in the BEx Web Analyzer.
Could be related to a BEx Web Analyzer "bookmark" ("Personalize Web Application").
I have not deleted any item. We use SAP BW 7.0 with a patch level approx. 09.2009.
The "flat-mode" seems to be the "BEx table mode".

Any new solutions?

Condition (Defintion) in BEX Query Designer

Hi Experts,
I am trying to define a condition in BEX Query Designer.
I defined my condition and bit confused with Characterstic Assignment
What Happens if is select 9What is the difference)
1) All Characterstic in the Drilldown Independtly
2)Most Detailed Characterstic Along the Rows
3)Most Detailed Characterstic Along Columns and
4)Individual Chars and Chars.Combinations
Thanks

Hi,
● All Characteristics in the Drilldown Independently
This setting allows you to apply a condition in a general way. Depending on which characteristics you use in the drilldown, you obtain different results.
Note that the characteristics that are already used in an active condition for characteristic combinations are not included.
This option is optimized for ranked list conditions, but can also be used for threshold value conditions with relative values.
●Most Detailed Characteristic Along the Rows or Columns
This option is optimized for threshold value conditions. The condition is applied to the most detailed characteristic of the rows or columns.
Note that this function is not supported when executing the query in the BEx Analyzer. For more information, see Restrictions in the BEx Analyzer.
● Single Characteristics and Characteristic Combinations
This setting allows you to evaluate the condition for characteristics or characteristic combinations defined for specific drilldowns only. You can select any characteristic (of the characteristics used in the query in rows, columns, or in the free characteristics) or a characteristic combination.
○ If you only want to evaluate the condition when a certain characteristic is present in the drilldown, select this characteristic.
○ If you want to evaluate the condition for characteristic combinations, select multiple characteristics.

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.

Creating Restrictions in BEx query designer for (1-a), where a is variable.

Dear All,
>> Suppose for the variable in the BEx query designer, I've created restriction for 0FISCPER to the variable 0P_PER (as 0P_PER-1) by right clicking 0P_PER3, from that a dialog box appears. In that I've selected 0P_PER3 and then clicked on offset variable and when I set the offset variable, it works for (0P_PER-1.etc, 0P_PER+1,etc..)
But if I want to have (1-0P_PER), then plz tell me how to define this restriction?
Plz explain me the steps to perform (1-0P_PER) restriction in BEx query designer in BW1.
I'm using SAP BI 7.2 gui.
Expecting your reply soon,
with Regards,
Jerald

My requirement is that I want to have " 1-fiscal year"., But this I could not define using offset variables, since using offset we can define "fiscal year +1" or "fiscal year -1".
So there would be some other way to define "1-fiscalyear". So Please help me to define "1-fiscalyear" by giving me the steps.
Thank you,
