(Urgent) Sorting search help values in Web Report

Hello Friends,
We have a web report which uses a variable made on 0CALMONTH. The order of display of values for this variable search help is 02/2004, 03/2004, 01/2005, 07/2006, 08/2006, 05/2007. In this order we have the latest date (05/2007) displayed at the end of the list. What we want is that the values in the search help of 0CALMONTH should be displayed in the reverse order i.e. latest date first (05/2007, 08/2006, 07/2006... etc).
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Regards,
Prem.

Hi Premanand,
If u display the report in Internet Explorer there you can see differnet buttons like
Save View, Book mark, Variable Screen etc...There click Save View give tech name and descryption. After Sorting use this in WAD instead selecting query , select this view and execute.
Assign Points Pls...

Fiscal Period ----- in BEx Report

Hi All,
I have a small issue.
in my report i want to give single selection for fiscal period like 0102005.
for these selection i want to display all previous period data in separate column
like 0012005 0022005 ............ 0102005
KF value KF value KF value
If any know it please guide me step by step.
Thanks
samit

Hi Saha,
You can do this with the help of variable offsets. Either you can create a series of restricted key figures, or if there are more than one KF being used, you may want to create a Fiscal Period structure andplace it in the columns too.
What you will be doing in both will be the same. Restrict the Fiscal Period char with the single entry variable, and for other columns, take the same restriction and set an offset of -1. Keep on increasing the value of offsets for each previous selection that you want.
For more details on how to set offsets, refer to this post:

Sorting a variance column in Webi report

I have the need to sort a report by a variance that I have calculated in the report.
For example, a report has inventory for end of prior month and current day. I am calculating the variance between the two columns. (how much inventory has changed by product)
I need to be able to sort this table descending so that I can see the big inventory movers first.
When I select the variance column, the sort options are disabled.
I have also tried to save my function as a variable and that does not seem to help.
I am using WEBI XI 3.1.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Rodney,
The "column" parameter is used as such: ;col which is added to the end of your formula like this:
([Stock Quantity] Where([Calendar Day]=Max([Calendar Day]) In Report) - [Stock Quantity] Where([Calendar Day]=Min([Calendar Day]) In Report);col )
When you add the ";col" portion it tells WebI to calculate by column (the alternative keyword to this parameter is "row").
You mention that you'll lose your calculated column, however, instead of building a formula with a cell, you can also construct a local variable to the report executing the same formula. This method is handy when you'll have the same computation to do in perhaps several tabs, and you just want to code once and reuse in multiple places within your report. So, if you can somehow work on establishing a local variable with the same formula, then demote the table to a horizontal or vertical table, put your objects in that grid configuration, apply sorts, then reposition as crosstab, you might be able to achieve your desired results.
Thanks,
John

Extracting fiscal period

Hi ,
Can you please let me know the way of extracting the Fiscal Period(Month/Year) from r/3 as we don't have fiscal Period existing in bw so as per the requirement we have to add the Fiscal Period to all reports in bw.
I have investigated in R3 and found there is a function module bapi_controllingarea_getperiod which returns Fiscal Period and Fiscal Year based on our company fiscal calendar ,so can we call this function module in a program and concatenate these 2 field to get Fiscal Period(Month/Year) and import this into BW?,If yes then please let me know the procedure to do this.
Can you tell me if any R3 table holding Fiscal period .
Main condition is that we have to calculate Fiscal Period thru R3 not in BW .
Thanks & Regards,
Rashmi.

Simplest way to do this
Depending on whether you have multiple fiscal year variants
if you do then
Enhance 0comp_code to get the fiscal year variant per co code
add this to the cubes along with fiscper 3, fiscper and fiscyear
then look up to comp code to get the fisc year variant
then take whatever posting data/cal day has been used for fiscla reporting and put this into the automatic time conversion (you dont need to do a lookup
if however you are lucky and in 99% of cases - there is always a hard coded fiscal year variant
then just do the same as above but hard code the fiscal year variant in the update rules or the infoprovider properties
The difficult thign is tryign to identify th base date for use for the automatic fiscal period time conversion
FI is easy its cal day - but MM? gr date? po date? ir date?

Web Report not printing the fiscal year period variable value

Hi,
In web report where in one text element, we enabled the fiscal year period variable value to display
in the report result.
If we run the report then this fiscal year period is displaying in the general information.
We have print button (Java Code), where user can take a printout of the same report.
In the printout this Fiscal year period is NOT PRINTING, other variables like rollup time, technical name of report etc are printing perfectly.
It is required to print the fiscal period also in the print out of the report.
Any help to come out of this.....
Thanks

BEx Fiscal Period variables not working in Webi

Hello,
We have an BEx user entry variable for Fiscal period, that works correctly in BEx. In the prompt LOV, I get values from year 2003 to 2013.
When I run it in Webi, the LOV starts from year 0000 to 2040. Also there are 16 periods in a year, wheras the LOV displays 24 period, even after restricting on fiscal variant.
Has anyone successfully been able to make Webi work with BEx fiscal period variants?
Thanks,
Nikhil

I created a universe objects with following in the
"Select"
[0P_FPER].[NAME]
"Where" condition
<FILTER KEY = "@Select(Fiscal year Period\LovPeriod_Fiscal Year)">
<CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION = "Greater">
<CONSTANT CAPTION = "AB1000001"/>
</CONDITION></FILTER>
When I create a report with this object, I get no data.
I change the above to
"Select"
[0P_FPER].[NAME]
"Where" condition
<FILTER KEY = "@Select(Fiscal year Period\LovPeriod_Fiscal Year)">
<CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION = "Less">
<CONSTANT CAPTION = "AB1000001"/>
</CONDITION></FILTER>
I tried changing the CONSTANT CAPTION values, everytime "Less" works but "Greater" does not. Does "Greater" not work?

Using fiscal period and Fiscal quarter reporting seemlessly in a BI Query

Hi,
We have a very specific issue. Reporting the Fiscal Period( in our
case we have 53 fiscal periods) and Fiscal Quarter( we have 4 quarters)
in the same query seamlessly as we would have done using Calander Month
and Calander quarter in other reports that uses SAP delivered standard
time dimensions.
However unlike the Calander time dimension (SAP provided all
possible...0CALDAY, 0CALWEEK, 0CALMONTH, 0CALQUARTER, 0CALYEAR) where you have all of these inside your info provider, you can get
aggregation on week, month, quarter etc in your query seamlessly, The Fiscal Year/Period offers a problem in doing report seamlessly.
When we delve into Fiscal realm, SAP only provided with 0FISCVARNT,
0FISCPER, 0FISCYEAR and a special period 0FISCPER3. It doesn't provide
anything like 0FISCQUARTER etc and rightly so, because you can have
only one 0FISCVARNT in the Time dimension and can have related periods
(0FISCPER) only for a Row of data in your infocube. For example if you need to model as per the Fiscalweek, you can create a custom Fiscal year variant (Say z1) and can configure to have only 53 periods (Mapped to 0FISCPER) representing
53 Fiscal WEEK. Similarly for mapping Fiscal Quarter you can create
another fiscal year variant (Say Z2) and have only 4 periods (mapped to
0FISCPER also in this case) to represent the 4 Fiscal Quarter. However
the issue is that for one record you can only map either of those and
not both since you can only have one Fiscal year variant in one row of
data in the info provider.
For example
If I have two rows OF DATA coming from different sources (One FOR
Fiscal Week and another for Fiscal Quarter) I can have the following in
my info provider.
1> Example data in Fiscal
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER Quantity
X ...... y .....10/22/07 ....Z1 .... 432007 .......10
X ....... Y .....10/22/07 ....Z2 .... Q32007 .......20
The issue is how do I report the Quantity in a query in Quarter Q3 as
(10 + 20 = 30) since both the rows corresponds to FISCAL Q32007?
(Please note that Fiscal week 432007(For VARIANT Z1 ) actually is
Fiscal Quarter Q32007( For Fiscal Variant Z2) as per our
configuration of Fiscal Year Variant configuration Z1 and Z2)
The same is very simple when I have infoprovider with CALENDAR Time
dimensions , for example if we dont have any fiscal reporting
requirement and just report on calendar time dimension the record in
the info provider would look like the following ( example)
2> Example Data in CALENDAR DIMENSION
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0CALWEEK 0CALQUARTER Quantity
X ........ y .......10/22/07 .......432007 .......Q32007 .......10
X ........Y .......10/22/07 ....... 442007 .......Q32007 .......20
Here we can use both 0CALQUARTER and get the data aggregated on the
quarter level in addition to the 0CALWEEK.
To solve this issue, One option that we are thinking of Using 0CALQUARTER to represent the
Fiscal Quarter and use Update rule to populate this one. For example
THE example 1 can be as follows.
1A> Example of using 0CALQUARTER along with 0FISCVARNT and 0FISCPER
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER 0CALQUARTERE Quantity
X .......y .......10/22/07 ..............Z1 .......432007 .......Q32007 ..............10
X .......Y .......10/22/07 ..............Z2 .......Q32007 .......Q32007 ..............20
In this case we would populate the 0CALQUARTER by the actual Fiscal
Quarter and then can use both as per example 2 above. But this is not a
smooth option since we have various other info providers to join and
report based on solely Fiscal Quarter etc
I am certain that this issue have already been solved by somebody as this bound to happen in any finance application.
Would appreciate if we can get some light on this regarding the data modelling, reporting etc.
Thanks
Arun G.

You have yourself suggested a solution, which is fine,
Other option is to have a new characteristic Fiscal Qtr in all the infoproviders ans update the same using a routine in the updaterule depending on the fiscal year variant.
for eg. for transaction with variant Z1 in one case you can say if fiscal week 01 between 01 to 13 the Fiscal Qtr should be update with1 and if it is between 14 to 26 then update fiscal qtr with 2 and so on.
For other Variants Z2 you write a different login in the routine ans so on.
so for all the data irrespective of the variant you will have the qtr as either 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 and you can report on this fiscal qtr.
assign points if it helps.

Report to forecast based on fiscal period

Has anyone done any financial reports which display data based on fiscal periods? The ProjectData service doesn't expose fiscal period (neither does the REST API under _api/ProjectServer). I saw a previous post (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7999cdf1-16fd-4efd-b7de-964bfeceb8f6/utilization-reports-by-fiscal-period?forum=projectserver2010general)
that said to use the BI Center in PWA.
In the case of Project Online I think what it means is that I need to use the Time entity from Timesheet actuals. Is this correct?
Thanks,
Roland

Hi Roland,
Indeed I couldn't find any fiscal year in the
project odata references. Maybe other folks on the forum could give you a different answer. But if it turns to be true, you'll either have to deal with the time dimension, or to extract the raw data by day
then do a transformation with Excel formula, code, VBA...
Hope this helps,

Report for printing actuals for a fiscal period

i have a report which prints the actuals for a fiscal year . Its like each country has their own fiscal year representation , The report is currently printing the data based on its own fiscal year representation , i have to modify the report and want it to print based on US(sep-aug) fiscal representation .. like for example for india its printing with may as fiscal period 1 , instead i want to print it with may data as fiscal period 9 and to print the data from sep-aug for all countries. I dont understand how to give the select statement and how to proceed with this. I appreciate if anyone can help me with this.
Lets load up the yps_costplan table for loading.
if they didn't specify a project to single load, go get them all.
if s_objnr is initial.
if in first fiscal month, "Sept", then get previous years data to
fill in the last month, month 12.
if t_t009b-poper = '001'.
select * from yps_costplan into table i_yps_costplan
where yyobjnr gt 'PR00000000' and yygjahr ge yprevyear and
yygjahr lt yplus1year.
else.
select * from yps_costplan into table i_yps_costplan
where yyobjnr gt 'PR00000000' and yygjahr ge p_fiscal and
yygjahr lt yplus1year.
endif.
When getting all, start with 2003, when doing month, use current
fiscal year only.
yygjahr between t_yearm1 and t_yearp1.
else.
They secified 1 project, go get his data.
if not s_objnr-LOW cs '*'.
concatenate s_objnr-low '%' into hold_projn.
loop at s_objnr.
if s_objnr-high eq space.
concatenate s_objnr-low '*' into s_objnr-low.
s_objnr-option = 'CP'.
modify s_objnr.
endif.
endloop.
select posid objnr from prps into table t_prps
WHERE POSID IN S_OBJNR.
else.
concatenate s_objnr-low(sy-fdpos) '%' into hold_projn.
select posid objnr from prps into table t_prps
where posid like hold_projn.
WHERE POSID IN S_OBJNR.
endif.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
loop at t_prps.
if in first fiscal month, "Sept", then get previous years data to
fill in the last month, month 12.
if t_t009b-poper = '001'.
select * from yps_costplan into table h_yps_costplan where
yyobjnr = t_prps-objnr and yygjahr ge yprevyear and
yygjahr lt yplus1year.
else.
select * from yps_costplan into table h_yps_costplan where
yyobjnr = t_prps-objnr and yygjahr ge p_fiscal and
yygjahr lt yplus1year.
endif.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
loop at h_yps_costplan.
i_yps_costplan = h_yps_costplan.
append i_yps_costplan.
endloop.
endif.
endloop.
endif.
endif.

Hi Fris,
You can do this using a process chain and ABAP program.
1. Create one process chain and create abap program, include in it. Scedule this chain every day.
Write a code in this ABAP program to check last day of fiscal period and to raise an event to execute 2 process chain or infopackge.
From system date find currect period
(Use FM : DATE_TO_PERIOD_CONVERT).
Find last day of period(Use FM : LAST_DAY_IN_PERIOD_GET)
Check system date(sy-datum) is equal to last day of period then you can raise an event(Use FM : BP_RAISE_EVENT).
Use this event to schedule 2nd chains(contains infopackage) or direct scheduling of infopackage.
You can create event at : SM62.
Hope it Helps

Live Office does not retain the Custom Sorting applied in a Webi report

Hi,
We have a Webi report in which we applied "Custom Sorting" to sort the Business Names in the required order. However, when we import that to excel using live office, excel doesnt retain the same format and there are not much options that are available within xcelsius to do the sorting. I have gone through various posts here but none resolved this specific issue.
Here is our environment:
Xcelsius 4.5
Live Office Frame work 11.5.5.525
BOXI R2 SP1 and MHF1
I tried using different options under "Report View formatting" within live office options but none seem to have made any difference. Unfortunately we can't make any changes to the universe in this case. I checked for few paid addon's but they seem to be for Xcelsius 2008. We have a release next week and would appreciate if any of you can guide me to solve this issue.
Thanks
Pavan

hi pavan
i can just tell you that i had no issues with custom column sorting in webi with Enterprise XI 3.0 and Xcelsius 2008.

Sort variable values in selection box in BEx web report.

Hello friends,
In my BEx web report I have cal/month selection. When I do dropdown to select values it starts with 01/1960 and I have to click 10 times to get to 01/2006, 02/2006 and so forth.
Is there a way to sort these values so I can get most current cal/month in first list?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
BJ

I would consider changing the read mode for the dropdown box. Are all of those dates actually relevant? Check out the properties of the dropdown box in WAD.
Thanks,

0 fiscper3 (posting period)and 0fiscyear (fiscal year) in bw report

Hi I need a quick help, please resolve my issue in step by step. Report is required to display the 0 fiscper3 (posting period)and 0fiscyear (fiscal year) in bw report. I have a 0fiscper Fiscal Yr / Period in my datasource and infosource but not 0fiscper3 (posting period)and 0fiscyear (fiscal year). Can any body help me how to add the abap code to convert the 0fiscper Fiscal Yr / Period to display 0fiscper3 (posting period)and 0fiscyear (fiscal year in report or how to add by abap code 0fiscper3 (posting period)and 0fiscyear (fiscal year)in datasource. User will select the value of 0FISCYEAR
Fiscal year during the execution of report. please help
will reward all points.
thanks
soniya kapoor

In de update rules from infosource to datatarget you fill the rules like this:
For 0FISCYEAR:
result = comm_structure-fiscper(4).
For 0FISPER3
result = comm_structure-fiscper+4(3).
Note that this can also be done by using formula's. If you can't ABAP you may prefer to use formula's.
