Show current month and previous month measures

Experts,
My period names are stored like this in the Period Dim table 'Jan 2012'.....'Aug 2012', ... 'Dec 2012' etc..
To my request, i will pass only the current period value via. a drop down prompt, say 'Feb 2013' and it has to apply filter like this Period."Period name" in ('Feb 2013', 'Jan 2013').
I cannot use TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_MONTH, -1, Period."period name") as my period name is a char. Can someone suggest any idea?
Version : 10.1.3.4

Hi,
This can be achived,but little bit tedious process...
Create an intermediate report with three columns.
first column : Monthcolumn,which you are using in prompt.
Second column :This column is for selected month
Try to convert Jan 2012 to 201201,Feb 2012 to 201202...This can be achieved by writing a case statement like below
cast((Case when substring(column from 1 for 3)='Jan' then 01...........)||substring(column from 5 for 4) as int)
Third column:Prior month
cast((Case when substring(column from 1 for 3)='Jan' then 01...........)||substring(column from 5 for 4) as int)-1
Now add the same column formula to the main report and hide it(let's say column name will be "HIDED")
cast((Case when substring(column from 1 for 3)='Jan' then 01...........)||substring(column from 5 for 4) as int)
Now you can apply filter based on another request on the hided column.
HIDED<=Second column in intermediate report.
HIDED>=Third column in intermediate report.
Now you will get the desired reults in your report.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Pramod.

Balance sheet required for current quarter and previous quarter

Hi Guys,
I am using 0FIGL_C10 cube for balance sheet report,i need to create balances for current quarter and previous quarter.
user will enter the fisper, based on fisper it has to show the current quarter and previous quarter balance.
how to calculate the quarter using fisper.

you can use offset with ranges.
or
just offset of -1 , -2 & -3 seperately in 3 selections and add it in one column in formula (this will give u current quarter).
similarly offset of -4, -5 , -6 will give u previous quarter result.
total of 6 selection and 2 formulas. hide all selections from display.

BEx - Display current year and previous year by day on the same row

Hello experts, need some help/suggestions on how I can accomplish the following please.
We have a requirement to show MTD revenue by day for the current year and previous year. The desired result will have the following columns
Calendar Day   |     Current MTD Revenue     |     Prev MTD Revenue
11/01/2009       |      15,131,005                    |        15,138,668
11/02/2009         |    15,055,345    |                        15,523,762
However, the result is showing up as follows:
Calendar Day   |     Current MTD Revenue     |     Prev MTD Revenue
11/01/2008       | |                                                   15,138,668
11/02/2008       | |                                                   15,523,762
11/01/2009       |      15,131,005 |
11/02/2009       |      15,055,345 |
The number of rows for Calendar Day varies depending on the date the user selects. We only want to display the days for the current year with the Previous Year Column on the same row.
Can someone please let me know how I can get the results to display on one line for each day?
Thanks,
David

I have the same issue on my end, and am interested in responses. I searched the forum and found this suggestion in another post; not sure if this solution will help, but it looks like it might. This was a response from poster RadhaN:

   Re: a simple query to show sales versus last year on daily basis/
Posted: Sep 21, 2009 9:53 AM    in response to: Shlomi Weiss           Reply
HI Shlomi
Create a virtual characteristic in your infoprovider that can calculate the day from calendar Day. In ZXRSRZZZ while adding code for this virtual characteristic use the function module DATE_COMPUTE_DAY to compute the day for every calendar day.
For calculating Sales Current year, create a restricted ky figure with Sales as the key figure. Add 0CalDay to this RKF and create a variable for this infoobject(Eg: ZCURYEAR) that will receive input from the user for the range of dates eg: 08/16/2009 - 08/22/2009.
For Sales Prior year, create another restricted key figure with Sales. Add 0CalDay to this RKF and add a customer exit variable. In the Customer exit code use the ZCURYEAR variable and offset it to prior year in both the upper and lower limits. This should work.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.

How to get data for current week and previous week using customer exit in Bex.

Hi everyone,
I have a scenario in which I need to display data for current week and previous week (based on "sy_datum" the program has to calculate current week and previous week) in Bex using Customer exit. I have created one variable in Bex Query Designer and I have written code for the variable in CMOD. But it is not working fine, (I know that we can do the same by using offset value in Bex). Can some one guide me how to achieve my requirement using customer exit.

Parameter for current year and previous year

Hi all,
I currently have 2 reports where the query is the same except in the where clause I have it filtered to current year and previous year based on the List_Date. I would like to make this one report with a parameter of Current or Previous year.
Would I create 2 more datasets one for current and another for previous? I would think there is a easier way. Any help or direction would be great.

If you define a parameter in SSRS, you can use it's value in your query. Just make sure the parameter name, and CASE (SSRS is case sensitive when it comes to parameters) are the same in SSRS and your query. There's a parameter tab on the dataset properties.
It SHOULD auto fill, but it never hurts to check, just in case.
Don't forget to mark helpful posts, and answers. It helps others to find relevant posts to the same question.
Yes it did auto fill the parameter tab in the dataset and I get a parameter to enter the year when I preview the report. Still a little confused on how I do current or previous year. Are the next steps what I need to do?
@yearParam parameter:
1) Create Available or Default values
2) Current and Previous year as label
3) For Value do I need to use a expression for current year =Year(now()) and previous Year?
4) Add a filter on the tablix for list_date?

Displaying current year and previous year's data.

hi all,
we have fields like doc.no, company code, costcenter, posting date, year etc... in a query.
we are using this query to display data in VC,
how can i display the current year and previous year's data in two different tables using the available fields.
any help will be highly appreciated.
thanks,
Rk

Hi Rk,
You can achieve your requirement using 'Filter' operator. Drag one 'Filter' operator into visual composer story board and drag the output into filter and add condition(Check year=2008) and drag one table from filter. For another table use another filter and change the condition.
Hope it helps...

Show current month's calendar based on computer date

As a page loads, is it possible to check the computer date
and display the current month's calendar (specialized with events),
either on the same page or on a separate page?
Any help would be appreciated,

You can adapt this script to do that:

COPA Report current period and previous period issue

Hi Gurus,
I have defined COPA report (Tcode KE94) based on line items. Now I want all values to be displayed based on an entry parameter in terms of period. That is to say that If I give input values of "010.2013" as a period entry , my report should display the values for the the period specified i.e. 010.2013 in the first column and in second column values for the period 009.2013 should be displayed and in the third column values for the period 001.2013 till 010.2013 should be displayed cumulatively.
For this, I choosed the character "period/year" in General data selection tab, clicked "Variable on/off" tab and gave values "From" as well as "To" for the Global Variable "OFP" which is Curr.fisc.per./year.
For the 1st column (1st column which is suppose to display the values according to selection parameter), along with the character "company code" , I choosed the character "period" and clicked "Variable on/off" tab and gave value "From" as well as "To" for the Global Variable "OFP" which is Curr.fisc.per./year.
For the 2nd column (2nd column which is suppose to display the values for the immediately preceeding period of the selection parameter), along with the character "company code" , I choosed the character "period" and clicked "Variable on/off" tab and gave value "From" as well as "To" for the Global Variable "OFP" which is Curr.fisc.per./year. While doing so, I selected operator as "-" and choosed offset as 1.
For the 3rd column (3rd column which is suppose to display the cumulative values from the beginning of the fiscal year till the period mentioned in the selection parameter), along with the character "company code" , I choosed the character "period" and selected 001 in "From" and 016 in "To" tab.
Company Code selected in all the three columns is same and I have selected actual values i.e. 0 for "plan/actual indicator" tab.
When I run the report through Tcode KE30 , I give values as "010.2013" for the From and To selection tabs. System shows the values as per the selection parameter in the 1st column which is correct but display values same as per coulmn 1st in the 3rd column which is wrong because it should be cumulative. 2nd column is blank.
How to display the values for the immediately preceeding period and for cumulative period?
Regards,
makrand

Dear Ajay,
Thanks for the reply. Here are the screen shots.
For the general data selection tab
For the first column "current month" i.e. for the month
For the second column "Last Months"
For the third column "Cumulative" i.e. year to date
Following is the result of KE30
Values for the period 010.2013
You can see that values in the report for the period 011.2013 contains value for the previous period which is 59090.21
This value is matching when the report is run for the period 010.2013.
But in both the reports,the figures for Current month and YTD (year to date) are same.
Please let me know what setting is required in the current month column.
Regards,
makrand

Key figure comparision between current year and previous year

Hello collegues,
I have created a WEB Intelligence report with key figure ROI (return on investment which is calculated out of three other key figures (capital, revenue and costs). I would now like to calculate the percentage period (year) differences between key figure ROI - between current year (month) and previous year (month).
Do I have to add coding within a key figure formula within WEBI Rich Tech client or within universe builder.
The key figures were extracted from SAP BW and added to a universe which is basis for WEBI rich tech client report.
thanks and regards,
Christian

Hi Stratos,
so I see - i have to use the variable Editor and then define a measure and add coding in the formula field. Do you have an e-mail address ín order to send you the report and explain in more detail what I would like to see - here it is not possible to upload a report...
thanks and regards,
Christian

Current Year and Previous Year (derived) data comparison

Scenario:
Dimension Table for Date:
-Current Year
-Previous Year
-and other date related fields
Fact Table:
-Sales (contains current year sales depending on the filter set)
*Filter on Year
Would anyone know how will I create a measure for Previous Year Sales?
So that whenever my report shows the current year (for example: 2009) data of my sales, I can also have a column that would also display the previous year data and it will automatically know that it would display the previous year data of the Current year displayed in my report.
Also, how to derive the percentage change of this 2 columns.
Year: 2009
Branch --- Current Year Sales (Sales from Fact table) 2009 --- Previous Year Sales 2008???
I want to add the Current Year Sales And Percentage Change of Sales in the Business Model/Mapping Section. so that it would be available in the presentation layer of Oracle Answers.
Thanks.
Edited by: user12074468 on Oct 16, 2009 4:38 PM

Use column filters. Click on the fx button on your Sales column. Click on the Filter button. Now go to the Time.Year column you have and click on it. When the filter window comes up, click on Advanced and convert the filter to SQL. Now insert the Current Year column so that you have Time.Year = "Current Year" Click "OK."
Get another Sales column and put it in your workspace. Follow the above procedure except this time use th Previous Year column.
Now you have two Fact columns, one that filters for the Current Year and one that filters for your Previous Year.
Now for your variance, click on one more column and place it in your workspace. Click on the fx button. This time click on the "Column" button. You will see a list of your columns. From this, create the (Current Year)-(Previous Year)/(Previous Year)*100.00. In the Data Format tab, change the format to percentage.
You also have the option of creating the above calculations in the BMM layer too.

How to show current year and last year sales in a WEBI Report

Hi Guys
How can show current YEar Sales in one column and Last YEar Sales in the other column based on a user prompt for the Current YEar Column.
For Example is user enter 2010 for Year how can i show a Column for Sales-2010 and Sales 2009.
Thanks

If you can modify your Universe add an object named New Object Last Year whose SQL is:( yourTableName.Year + 1)
Then in WebI create two distinct queries in your query Pane. In the first one you could do this:
Query 1:
objects: Year, Sales ... etc.
filters:   Year Equal to '1. Prompt Year'
Query 2:
objects: Year, Sales ... etc.
filters:    New Object Last Year Equal to '1.Prompt Year'
Then in your report you can drag each object on their respective columns.
If you don't want to use two distinct queries, use one like this:
Query 1:
objects: Year, Sales ... etc.
filters:        Year Equal to '1. Prompt Year'
             Or
                  New Object Last Year Equal to '1.Prompt Year'

Showing current date and the last 250 working days

Hi,
we need to report the current day and the last 250 working days. How can I implement this into the BEx by using a variable for the current day selection. How can the selection of the last 250 working days work?
Thanx
René

Hi Rene,
I think that you have to go for a customer exit variable with multiple selections. The exit will calculate all these work days and place them into output for restriction.
Best regards,
Eugene
