Sorting Currency conversion Variables in Query Selection screen

Hi Experts,
I have an issue in sorting variables.
A Currency translation is used here which has two selection options here, one for "Currency" and one for "Currency conversion date". They just pop in somewhere in the selection screen with out order. I want to put them together either in the middle or at the bottom.
They are not visible in the Variable sequence tab of query properties.
I changed the text for each of them (Ex. "XCurrency"), so that it sorts alphabetically, but no difference.
Had anybody come accross this issue before.
regards
G Rai

Hi,
This seems strange that the variable does not show in the query properties. One thing I can suggest it to try changing the technical name/desciption of the variable if that changes the order.
Please update back the thread if that helps.

Error while using selection option variable in the selection screen

Hi All,
I am facing an issue while using selection option variable in the selection screen for one of my reports.
Scenario: For the field "Region From" we need to have wild card logic () in tes selection screen, for example if we put "BE" in the selection screen for the field Region From then the query should be executed only for those "Region From" values which begin from "BE".
Approach: For the above requirement I have made a selection option variable for "Region From". This allows use wild card
But when the report is executed we get the following error:
"System error in program CL_RSR_REQUEST. Invalid filter on ETVRGNFR".
(ETVRGNFR is technical name of the info object Region From)
Though the report is executed it displays all the values for the field "Region From" irrespective of the selection given in the selection screen.
Please give suggestions / alternate solutions to crack this issue.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Priyanka.

Currency conversion variable

I have a question regarding currency conversion variable.
We have USD and CAD currencies in BW. I created a currency conversion variable in the properties of a key figure using average rate for current date (0MEANTODAY) and that variable was working fine for a long time. Now I noticed that variable got corrupted in BWD but still works in BWQ and BWP systems. I can see in BWD that variable has nothing in a Variable Represent box and Ready for Input checkbox is not checked. It doesnt let me to fix or repair this variable. I cannot run any existing queries in BWD that use this variable. The error message is Variable 0MEANTODAY is not permitted for the target currency
I created another currency conversion variable that works in BWD. I know it is ok to have multiple variables for a dimension, lets say Cal Year/Month has a number of variables. I am not sure whether it is allowed to have multiple currency conversion variables and use different currency conversion variables in different queries. We have about 40 queries that use old currency conversion variable in BWP. If Ill move new query with a new currency conversion variable to BWP, will it cause any problems for the existing reports that use an old variable? I want to know whether it will present a problem running 40 reports that are already in prod besides the fact it will be inconsistent for a while until Ill switch all reports to use a new variable.
I dont know why that variable got corrupted. A few weeks ago basis applied some patches in BWP and copied it to BWQ and BWD systems but I am not sure that caused a problem.
I am relatively new to BW and will very much appreciate any help. I havent done transport to production for more that a week and cannot wait any more.
Thanks,
Polina
BWD DEV; BWQ QA and BWP - Production

I was dealing with this problem for more than a week. Finally I got help from SAP today. As it was explained to me, we were using very old version of BW front end (part of SAP GUI) which became incompatible with the new patches we applied in BWP and copied to BWQ and BWD. Basically, I was told to upgrade BW front end that caused problems especially in the Variable Wizard area.
I repaired the currency conversion variable and move it to production. So far all reports run ok in production.
If anybody will have problems with currency conversion variables, please check your front end version.
Thanks.

Currency Conversion variables

Hi,
I have some reports in BEX and recently we got BO XI 3.1 latest release in our office. So, i started migrating all the reports to BO. Since my user dont want to use the BEX in going forward (not even BEX query). So im wondering abt the currency conversions.
Because in BEX Query the currency conversion variables are been defined, is there any equivalent in BO??? or BO Xi 3.1 can read the currency variables defined in the RSCUR??
Thanks,
Siva

Hi Siva,
I am not sure why no one has replied to this, but it is probably because no one knows the answer (including me!). I am not aware of where currency conversion values are defined in Business Objects, or Web Intelligence. I know there are locales which interpret data into your language, But I don't know very much as to how they work,
Maybe there is someone who reads this who can help? I would like to know also!
Thanks

Query Selection screen field validatoin

I am testing a query using the RSRT2 transaction and have a query selection screen whose fields i want to create custom validations for. ( which should trigger when check or execute is pressed )
How can this be achieved ?
I tried looking for exits but did not find a relevant one.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
You need to write a routine in SMOD for selection screen validations.
It will come in i_step = 3. please refer foll code as example:
The code example is to check whether date is less than or equal to current date. If user enters future date it pop ups saying enter date less than or equal to current date.
DATA: LI_VAR like rrrangeexit,
       wa_t_var_range like LI_VAR,
       count type i value 0.
IF i_s_rkb1d-infocube EQ 'CUBE1' or
   i_s_rkb1d-infocube EQ 'CUBE2'.
Check whether only one of date variable is entered in variable screen.
IF I_STEP = 3.
    Read table i_t_var_range into wa_t_var_range with key vnam = 'VARDATE'.
      if wa_t_var_range-low > sy-datum.
        CALL FUNCTION 'RRMS_MESSAGE_HANDLING'
          EXPORTING
            I_CLASS = 'RSBBS'
            I_TYPE   = 'E'
            I_NUMBER = '000'
            I_MSGV1 = 'Enter date less than or equal to current date'.
        raise again.
      endif.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.

Query Selection Screen does not appear in Web Analyzer

Hi Experts,
Query Selection Screen appears when we open the query in Bex Analayzer in production system. But when we open the query in ABAP or JAVA Web view, the selection screen does not appears.
As the volume of data in the cube is very high, and since the selection screen is not appearing, the query extracts 1.5Mrecords and results in dump.
Kindly let me know the possibility for selection screen not appearing.
Note: The selection screen appear in Development system in Bex Analyzer, ABAP View and Java View
Regards
Suresh Kumar

Dear Suresh,
You can check if the parameter &VARIABLE_SCREEN=X is added to standard template or not, If not add this,
In order to add this parameter in the webtemplate you have to change 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN and save it as ZANALYSIS_PATTERN and enter this standard web template under TCODE RSCUSTV27.
Also I would like to explain you the behavior of Web Analyzer,
Parameter VARIABLE_SCREEN=X only influences the WEB application at startup. This will not come into affect
when you use the 'New Analysis' button. The 'New Analysis' button resets the dataprovider so this would not
affect the variable screen and would not redisplay the variable screen as you require.

Currency Conversion Variable is showing the Technical name of the variable.

Hi friends,
We are using currency conversion Variable in our querie, it was showing the description of the variable until yesterday.
Somehow something has changed and suddenly its showing up the Technical Name inteasd of Description. This is happening not only to one variable but for many of them.
Can someone pls guide me how to rectify this?
Your help verymuch appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
BN

We had the same problem. Unfortunately this setting only seems to be available for a query view. We were using web reporting anyway so we just converted the dataprovider to be a query view where this setting had been made. It's a bit ugly but it worked.

Hi Vijay,
If these check boxes are the fields in the table you are using then you can do it in SQ01, otherwise you may required to make the changes in the standard code generated for that query.
You can find the name of the generated program of the query when you execute the query.
Reward points if useful.

BEx query selection screen takes long time to popup

Hi,
I have a query which is taking long time to popup the selection screen. I have tried in RSRT the generate report option, the generating report takes 45 to 60 mins. After the report is generated the query selection screen comes up in couple of seconds. The first time I run the query everything its fine but then for the second time the problem comes back again.
The selection screen takes +/- 40 mins to comes up in RSRT and in the portal it times out.
I have run the statistics of the query and according to the statistics report the query takes a lot of time for the following component :
OLAP: Query Gen. 2681,312682
I have removed the query from the cache monitor and after that regenerate the report. But these steps didnu2019t solve my problem.
I made two test queries, in one query I have made the CKFu2019s and RKFu2019s directly at the infoprovider, and dragged and dropped in the KF structure. In the other query I made the CKFu2019s and RKFu2019s in the query KF structure itself. The query where I have the CKFu2019s and RKFu2019s at the infoprovider that query times out, the other query where I put the CKFu2019s and RKFu2019s in the query KF structure doesn't has this performance problem.
What I donu2019t know is why the query is failing when I use RKFu2019s and CKFu2019s from the infoprovider, the other query donu2019t have this problem.
Please advise how to proceed.
Thanks in advance,
Arash

Then please execute the SE38 report ANALYZE_RSZ_TABLES (see notes

F4 search-help in infoset query selection-screen fields

Hi all,
I created an infoset, and it's corresponding query, and now I need to associate F4 search-help in two of the selection-screen fields. Since they don't have any reference field associated (they are SAP standard table fields), there are no possible values available to select.
How can I do this?
I have already tried to use the "AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT" in the infoset, but I'm not able to do that. When I try to use the select-options generated by the query (SP$00013 and SP$00014) I have a syntax error with "Field not known".
Can you help me? I never done this before, so I really don't have a guess.
Thanks in advance.
Beste regards,
Sónia Gonçalves

Hi all,
I have found thread that helped me a lot in this issue.
I just have one more doubt: I created the selection criterion and I can already see it in the query selection-screen, but it's appearing in the top of the selection-screen, in a different area called "General data selections".
Isn't it possible to include it in the "Report-specific selctions"?
Thanks in advance.

Infoset-query-selection-screen-default-values

Hi All,
I am having the requirement as I need to put default values in the selecion-screen of the report by using Infoset query. Let me know the settings required for this.
I am using SQ01, SQ02, SQ03 T.Codes.
And I need display one record only if any field contains mulitple records, for example in the HR-ABAP, field p0105-usrid contains multiple values depending on the subtype.So, I need to display USRID when URSTY = '900'. All these should display by Infoset query only.
Pls help me in this scenario , its an urgent requirement.I am very much thankful for you for reading my proble, if you will provide some sort of solution, I feel very happy.
Advance thanks for this .
Regards,
Prakash.

Prakash,
To default the values on your selection screen, you will need to do some ABAP I guess. (if you do not want to use variant). Open up the infioset in SQ02 and then goto code option for the PNP**** field and then you can code to initialize the selection screen variables. Test with an ABAPer.
To display multiple records as multiple columns, you will have to create custom fields in infoset, and then go from there. Again see ABAPer.

Currency Conversion in BeX Query

Hello Experts
I want to have corrency convetion option in Bex Query and have few questions regardig that.
i am using key figure 0DEB_CRE_LC which has currency as 0LOC_CURRCY.
1. how do i allow user to enter currecny, using some input variable for currency char.?
2. do i need to associate some date for this conversion?
3. what exchange rate will be used?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Sudeep

Hello Sudeep,
1. how do i allow user to enter currecny, using some input variable for currency char.?
Answer: Create a variable on 0Currency and select the conversion type which you have maintained in RSCUR tcode. Make this variable as input ready. This will give the user the flexibility to enter the Currency.
2. do i need to associate some date for this conversion?
Answer: Yes you need to associate the Currency conversion type to your conversion. Same can be maintained in RSCUR tcode.
3. what exchange rate will be used?
Answer: In RSA1, goto source system tab and right click on the Source system. Select "Transfer exchange rates". This will transfer the exchange rates which are maintained in your ECC side. The exchange rates are maintained in table TCURR. you can check the table in SE16.
