SEM-CPM-MC: Creating CPM variables

Hi,
I know this is probably not the right place to post it, but I couldnt find a better place.
I trying to create a variable in SEM-CPM-MC, but no matter what I do, I'm only able to create a runtime variable with selection type P - Variable for single value. I can select the other values, but when I save the variable SAP automatically corrects it to Singe value again. I can also create a design variable with the other types, but not a runtime variable. How do I create a variable for which you can enter an interval?
In the documentation it also says, that you should be able to create variables on a frame level. I don't see any button where I can create a variable on a frame level. I've done exactly as it says on help.sap.com, but I don't have a button to create a new variable on a frame level. How do I do that?
Any help is appreciated and will be rewarded generously :o)
Thanks,
-J

hi Yaj,
yes, there are business content, sap measure catalog, measures, strategy tempates, bw infocubes, etc.
you can activate single or mass, go to sap measure catalog, e.g you can activate node 'financial measures' for mass activation or specific measure only under that catalog.
to activate infocubes etc, you can use rsa1(administrator workbench)->business content, detail steps see sap help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bw33/helpdata/en/80/1a66d5e07211d2acb80000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
CPM business content, see
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/7a/72663ca0a9272ae10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
hope this helps.

SEM CPM variable

We have a cockpit defined in SEM which displays KPIs by calendar day. There is a CPM variable displayed when entering the cockpit which accepts the day, it is a drop down box. Walls, views and frames are then displayed based in queries in BW. The dates in the dropdown reflect the posted values from the BW cubes. One of the KPIs is obtained from a multiprovider (MP) in BW. When the query from the MP is used in a frame an excessive amount of dates are displayed in the dropdown. The dates displayed are not in any cubes. This also causes the cockpit to respond extremely slow. When the MP query is not connected to the cockpit performance is acceptable and the date selection reflects the cube contents.
We would also like to default the date selection to yesterday's date, but that is another issue.

Hello Walter,
I too am seeking to do something similar. Any luck doing it? If yes, could you please share the process.

Using CPM Variable within SEM BSC

Hi,
My client would like to have scorecard in Europe. he would like also drilldown through different structure :
- Europe
- Country (France, UK...)
- Department (HR, Finance)...
I thought It was possible to use CPM variable with Structure object and create only one scorecard (scorecard is the same for every structure). Unfortunately, I didn't success in using CPM variable.
Is there a way to achieve this (creation of multiple scorecards...) ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.
I agree with you when you say that if you maintain values in CPM variable, it will point to either cointinent or country and not both. That's what we want.
I need to know the best way to have a scorecard for Europe, one for France, one for UK....
Do we have to create one scorecard by element or is it possible to use CPM variable to achieve this ?
I didn't find a way, as we can do in Management cockpit, to change directly in the presentation the value of the variable CPM.
Thanks in advance

SEM-CPM : CPM Variable

I am interested in presenting a CPM variable visually (I am using CPM-web, or UMM_PRES_WEB). The variable is currently used to drive the restriction of the underlying queries, however, I am interested in using this same CPM variable to provide a visual cue of what data is being shown. So - for example- I would like to present text somewhere in the logical view and perspective view that would identify which values the CPM is set to. I have not been able to find a way to use the CPM variable for anything other than restriction.
Can anyone help me with how to use the CPM variable as dynamic text as I have described? It seems visually challenging to understand what is being related if these values cannot be presented.

Hello All
After activating a Strategy Template in SEM-CPM version 6 transaction UMB_ST_VIEW when viewing the result in the Measure Catalog I have greyed out Business Content Measures showing they are active but the activated measures do not beolong to a measure catalog. The system wont allow me to assign them to my own personal catalog and I cannot deactivate them to allow drag and drop. Can anyone please help me with this problem.
Thanks

hi
Balanced Score Card has to be configured as follows:
First You have to Define Strategy
For Example Strategy : Revenue Growth
For this particular strategy u can have 4 perspectives
1. Financial Perspective
2. Customers Perspective
3. Internal Process
4. Learning & Growth
For Financial Perspective: You can have different Objectivees
eg for objectives:1. New Revenue Sources
2. Increase Profitablilty thru Premium Brands
Next For each objective u can have measures and initiatives
For eg: for increase Profitablity thru Premium Brands
Measures: Profit, Revenues
Initiatives: Allocate Budget For Advertisement , Promotinal Activity etc.
So Overall the sequence will be First : Strategy
and For Each Strategy u will have different Perspectives and for each perspective different objectives and for each objectives u will assign different measures and initiatives.
Objective will pertain to repective perspective only.
For each initiative u hv to assign respective incharge and budget to be alloted.
Next u hv to create value fields and assign Actual, Plan and Target values
For score calculation u need to define Formula: and select the formula id for eg: a/b
and give a=actual and b=plan then u hv to assign table
next u hv to select graphics also
then u sav ur BSC.
if u hv still hav any queries u can contact

Connect more than 1 external BI in SEM-CPM-BSC or SEM-CPM-MC

Hello,
I have seen the help.sap.com that helps me how to put a defined BI (but only one BI).
Design -> Default BW System
Design -> Access to SAP BW
Design -> RFC Destination for Project System
But what we have is 3 BI systems. Each one with one module (HHRR, FI, SD). We want to join those BI modules into the SEM CPM. But I don't see how to put those 3 external BI in my CPM.
Please help me...
Best Regards...
Pablo Mortera.

There're several ways:
1.- Create remote Cubes where you get your queries. Then once the SEM system you will have a Cube that really is a "remote" cube in another system. This will also help by creating a MultiCube, related to the cubes created before...this way you have a big datamart (really a knowledge mart;-) ) that has all of the data/information related in one view.
2.- In the local BW system, you may create local InfoProviders that are being fed by remote BW systems as InfoSources. (You'll have to create the InfoSources and copy the data loads in the local BW System)
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

I am new to SEM. I tried to search the forum for some documentation. Everyone referred to help.sap.com and service.sap.com/sem. In service.sap.com/sem I didn't find any documents for sem documentation. Help.sap.com doesn't have any examples.

Hi,
I don't know if the solution is as easy for you but :
I did have the same problem with my frames... the problem was that (in the web version) after having selected a value, I had to click on the "V" on the bottom-right of the screen to update the graph according to my selection.
I hope it helps.

Hello Ashok,
In my opinion, this tool cannot be used in Business Objects.
Our [end user documentation|http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000713358&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&] does not have any comment. I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.

I have not tested it but try to go to transaction RSRHIERARCHYVIRT and change the time interval (to less dates).
