Sorting in the variable screen

Hello,
I use BW 7.0 and have a problem with the variable screen.
In the web-report I have three queries with different and same variables. I know that I can adjust the sorting of variables in the query designer. But this has no affect to the sorting of the variable screen.
Does anybody know a solution?
thanks

Hi,
You can sort the Char.Values by doing settings in Query Designer :
Say for 0calmonth :
In its Display properties tab,You select appropriate options in
Sort Char -> select the name
sort by -> Key/Text
Sort Direction -> Ascending/Descending.
You will then have them in required order.
ALso if you want it only for F4 help:
In F4 help screen,you will see two arrow buttons next to Char. name. they are useful for sorting the values to either descending or ascending.
Hope it helps:)

Compounded characteristic are not displayed in the variable screen (BI 700)

Hi Experts,
How to display compounded characteristic in the variable screen of queriies?
Example :
IO 0PROFIT_CTR is compounded to 0CO_AREA. Tryimg to select 0PROFIT_CTR via a variable,
only values of 0PROFIT_CTR are displayed in F4 opo up, not those of 0CO_AREA.
0CO_AREA is not restricted in any way in query definiton.
This happens in BEx Analyser as well as in web apllication.
Did anybody face this issue? How to solve it?
Thanks in advance for helpful replies.
Regards
Joe

Hi,
Thanks for replies. Possibly I did't explain my problem i a correct way.
'I 've a variable for 0PROFIT_CTR. When I call F4 , values for 0PROFIT_CTR are displayed
e.g. as
7062 PC 7062
7062 PC /062
My problem is, that these PCs belong to different Co_areas. so i expected
3200 7062 PC 7062
4300 7062 PC 7062
3200 an 4300 are representing compounded Co_areas in this example. In 3.5 this worked perfectly,
if Co_areas was not restricted itself with a variable or a defined value.
Now I'm looking for the option to achieve this as well in 700.

Joe

Hello

Please can someone tell me how to implement this?
thanks

Hi Tom,
The logic could be to include code in CMOD forat variable with ISTEP=2.
IF I_STEP = 2.
LOOP AT i_t_var_range into wa_t_var_range where vnam = 'Date Varaible'
<write condition to check the year entered. First, using function module DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT, extract year from Date>
<   CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT'
        EXPORTING
          I_DATE               = ZT_SDT
        I_MONMIT             = 00
          I_PERIV              = 'Variant'
       IMPORTING
         E_BUPER              = zbuper
         E_GJAHR              = zbdatj this is the year entered
       EXCEPTIONS
         INPUT_FALSE          = 1
         T009_NOTFOUND        = 2
         T009B_NOTFOUND       = 3
         OTHERS               = 4>
>
Then check the year for the condition.
If correct.
exit.
else.
CALL FUNCTION 'RRMS_MESSAGE_HANDLING'
EXPORTING
I_CLASS = 'RSBBS'
I_TYPE = 'E'
I_NUMBER = '000'
I_MSGV1 = 'Date should not be entered before 2010'.
raise again.
endif.
endif.
endloop.
Hope this helps you.!

Message at the variable screen

Hello,
I would like that message pops up at the variable screen during the execution of the report.
How can I implement this functionality?

Hi,
Use the following Code, don't write in between Case and EndCase, after ENDCASE you write code for I_STEP = 3.

How do change the text color in the variable screen ?

Hi Experts ,
I would like to know about , How do change the text color in the variable screen ?
Using web templates (Analytical) can get the output. It has the variable screen contains 6 fields (Company code, Country , Region , COB, Plant and Purchasing Group). I want to make RED color text on Plant. Please help me .
Thank you ,
Prasad.

Hi,
I am looking for nearly the same. What I have found is that it seems to manipulate the SAP theme that is used in standard when template is executed in the portal. Just display the source code of the HTML and there you will see the included SAP theme (normally SAP_TRADESHOW). Then you have to go to the SAP portal and change this stuff. But for that you have to know where to find it and what impact this change has.
I am not pretty sure if this is the right way. But as I want to change the standard layout of a whole template to a customer specific layout I think there is no other way in BI7.0.

How to display the variable screen with report in the same page together

our customers want to design a web application use BEx
they want the variable screen can be displayed with the report result in the same web page together
so they can modify the variable filters any time and refresh the report with new variable filter
i have tried the navigation area,but it seems only use new filter to the data athough get,we can't change the filter we input in the variable screen.
is there any way to display these together?
even I can use BSP.

I think to display var screen with the report is not possible.(At least it will not be static). You need to refresh the report and choose the varibale at that time.
Other option could be to bring all the possible value in the report and provide your user with the filter value. But this will make your report slow as you may have to bring more data in the filter.
Thanks...

How to order the variable screen if some variables are in differnet Queries

Hi,
i have a workbook in Bex Analyzer (BI 7.0) which contains 4 Queries (A,B,C,D). In the variable selection screen are 15 variables. One variable is used only in one Query (C). 6 variables are used in 2 Queries(1xA,B; 2xB,C; 3xA,D) and 8 variables are used in 3 Queries(A,B,C).
If I open the variable screen in the workbook the 15 variables are in a confusing order.
How can I change the order of these variables?
I tried to order the variables in the Query Designer (Variable Sequence) for every Query but it didn't work.
Best Regards.

Hi Jordan,
       There is a best practice when using the variables in a the queries...Make the most used ones in"Personalise variables" option available in the pop up screen for the variable selection....
     Also,in order to have a correct sequence of variables ,,just arrange them in order u want using "query properties"....
    Hope this helps you..and assign the points if ts needful

Venkat.

Skipping of the variable screen in Web report

Hi,
I have created my queries in Bex. When I run the reports from my favorites in the SAP GUI, the reports are displayed directly without bringing up the variable screen in the web browser.
Currently on BI7. Any ideas how to fix the issue.
Thanks
Demetrius

Queries in Web are run using the default web template (which is generally 0analysis_pattern) - you can check the default WT for your system in tcode SPRO. In the properties of the web template, you have an option 'Display Variable Screen' - you can turn it on. As such, I think your query has no 'mandatory' variables, otherwise the var entry screen should have appeared.
You might want to search for some threads on 0analysis_pattern to get some more info about it.

How do you change the variable screen on Portal to show Key?

Hi All,
I have a report on our Portal. In the variable screen, the users are asked to optionally enter Cost Centre. When they choose to select values (pressing the button on the right) the singles values which are shown are 'Text' only. I know in analyser, the user can switch by selecting the spanner icon - 'Display Key/Text'
How do you change to Key within the variable screen on the portal?
Many Thanks
Michelle

Thank you for your reply Amrita,
The display in the query had been set to Text & Key as follows
Properties of Cost Centre -> Display Tab -> Value Display Section -> Display As 'Text and Key', Text View 'Standard' and Use Characteristic Setting 'Unticked'
Is there another section that I should be amending to ensure the 'Key' also appears in the variable screen?
Many Thanks,
Michelle

Removed variable still shows up in the variable screen of a Web report

Hello,
I am using a variable screen in a web report. I changed the variable on 0CALMONTH, but I still can see the old one. Two variables now show up. In Bex, only the new one can be seen.
Does anyone knows the reason for that? I'm using BW 7.0 with the 3.5 reporting functionalities.
Thanks in advance, Nathalie

Nathalie,
i'm sorry, it's not datasource... it's dataprovider
    delete the dataprovider from the the HTML Code...you could see the DataProvider in <Object>... </Object>
suppose let us assume that you have DataProvider and DataProvider. you are not using DataProvider3, delete from the HTML code.
delete this block from HTML.
<object>
         <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
         <param name="CMD" value="SET_DATA_PROVIDER"/>
         <param name="NAME" value="DATAPROVIDER_3"/>
         <param name="QUERY" value="NEWQUERY123"/>
         <param name="INFOCUBE" value="ZSD_OPST3"/>
         DATA_PROVIDER:             DATAPROVIDER_3
</object>
Create a new Web application that will give you correct result.
Can you please update the thread.
all the best.

Issue when processing the variable screen Bex 7.0

Hi,
We have a issue where in a query the variables that the user selects are being ignored and the query runs wide open.
Esentially what happens is when you open a query, execute it and then close and again open a different query, the varaibles from previous query selection are carried and even if you change the variable values the user selects are neglected and query rund wide open.
Please let me know if you have encountered such an issue.
Thanks,

There is no such known issue like this.
However, you can check with SAP GUI patch level, Things are working fine with patch level 8 for SAP GUI 710.
There are lot of compatability issues here and there with GUI710 with MS Excel 2003..

How to add customize message on the variable selection screen in the query

Hi all,
Can we add an customise message on the variable selection screen in the query? If yes please let me know how it can be achevied?
Thanks,
Rani

Hi Rani,
I faced a similar issue (for what I understand your request is).
My requirement for the Variable Screen was to do:
1) place a link to a ppt file
2) remove buttons "Save", "Save As...), "Delete"... the standard buttons come when running the Query or WebTempl
We were using a Web Templ for BI7.0
I struggled trying to find out how to do it. My conclusions are:
- WAD, not sure we can accomplish it using a Web Template but i did not "play" a lot with the Web_Template Properties in order to know
- XHTML, I was told in my post HTML modification was the way, but I have close to nil background in HTML and couold not find the way of accessing the Variable Entry screen
For instance, I had to remove similar buttons and change some font size from a link on the Web Template (WAD), which was pretty straight forward. In WAD the buttons come with its own icon and to increase the Font size for that link we used XHTML (<font size="2" >). But the heck of the variable screen...well, i just did not get trhough to it to modify it in any way.
Good luck,
Definetly in a Query I would say that no.

Need to skip the variable selection screen when using dropdown

Hello Friends,
I have created a web template having a dropdown, a table and a text element. Basically I am trying to follow the guide "How to Use a Dropdown Box to Set Variable Values". It shows how to select values for a variable using dropdown.
NOTE: The guide can be found here:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/2642ab90-0201-0010-9193-d59de66cbab4
What is happening is when I select a value for the variable in the dropdown, the correct url is getting formed but instead of displaying the report using the selected value, the variable selection screen appears. Given below is the url that gets formed:
http://abcdev.wdf.sap-ag.de:8000/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=E&PAGENO=1&REQUEST_NO=3&CMD=PROCESS_VARIABLES&SUBCMD=VAR_SUBMIT&VAR_NAME_1=TSTPEROD&VAR_VALUE_EXT_1=04.2007
Please assist me to get rid of the variable selection screen. Thanks!
Regards,
Prem.

Hello Ray,
Thanks for your reply. This has partially resovled the issue. I have awarded you points for that. Now I am able to skip the variable screen.
However, the query results are not getting refreshed. I wanted to restirct the values based on the value given in the variable selection (In my case the dropdown box). Somehow I am not able to link the dropdown with the variable or the "SAPBWOpenURL(url);" function is having some issues.
Please assist. Thanks!
Regards,
Prem.
