Text variable creation Error.

Hello gurus ,
I am working in BI 7
I have to design a Report in which i want follwoing key figures in column
Net volume (User entry range of month)      Billing Product (same range of month)
Now the trickiest part is that whatever user enters on Selection Screen i.e the range of month of year they wanted to see the output,
they also want to see the same range entered in Report output.
For e.g.
user enters   Jan-March 2007
Then in query output it shuld show
Net volume (Jan-March 2007)      Billing Product (Jan-March 2007)
Like wise.
So if it aggregates the data for January to March , there is no worries.
What i did?
I restricted Net volume in Selection screen with Fiscal year/period.
I restricted Fiscal year/period with Standard Interval range variable.(Because in its technical name the prefix was "0")
Then i tried creating Text variable, and tried to include it in Description,
BUT OVER THERE WHILE INCLUDING IT , I WAS UNABLE TO SEE THE INTERVAL RANGE VARIABLE.
So i tried creating my own variable, and tried to use it.
IF i use my own created variable everywhere i dont get output.
But if i use Standard SAP provided variable everywhere, I am unable to include it while creating Text variable.
Where did i go wrong ?
For text variable i followed this procedure
Message: Create Text Var - >Type of var - Text ->Processing type - Replca Path ->Time char on which u hav created the interval var ->Replcaement Path - > Replacement Tab : Replacement Variable -Variable - > Variable - Giv the Interval Variable
- > Replace with key or text.
Please advise

Noviced,
Best to create your own but you will need two. One to show you the From value and one to show you the To Value.
When you are selecting the display type, you will see an option on that Dialogue box to show the From or To.

  • Variable creation error

    Hello gurus,
    I want to create some reports.
    Report requirement documents are there but i want your views with it.
    In there it says create
    Selection criteria when u execute a query
    => We have to create variables for those.
    After that it says
    Sold to Customer    with
    Selection options of   SINGLE VALUE, RANGE & LIST..
    Like wise i have lots of characteristics with SAME SELECTION OPTION
    So what type of variable shall i create.
    Any suggestions will be really appreciated.
    pOINTS WILL BE AWARDED

    Hi,
    You can create the variable as a Selection Option variable. This lets the user enter a single value, a range and list as well.

  • CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME IN CREATING A TEXT VARIABLE???

    Hello Friends,
    I want to display the Key and Text for 0CALYEAR in a report. I searched the forum and it seems that for doing this I need to create a text variable. In the query designer I tried creating a text variable for 0CALYEAR, but in the variable wizard, the "Type of characteristic" drop-down is greyed out. Please guide me in creating a text variable and on a larger scale in getting the Key and Text for 0CALYEAR. Thanks!
    Regards,
    Prem.

    Hello Friends,
    Thanks a lot for your replies!!! I am really delighted to see the helping spirit of the forum. I have assigned points to all of you. Thanks again!
    Now coming to the issue. Let me reply individually. (Friends, reply may be a bit lengthy. Please read atleast your part fully).
    Venkat, you said that we can display the key and text for 0CALYEAR if the texts are mainted for it. However, in the display option for 0CALYEAR there is no option for text. Moreover, since 0CALYEAR is provided by SAP itself, I did not find any option for maintaining texts for it. Infact in 0CALYEAR, under the master data tab the "With texts" option is unchecked. Please share some info on this one.
    Srini, your suggessted solution was not possible as there was no option for displying text in the context menu for 0CALYEAR.
    Karthik, I tried your solution. In my KeyFigures structure I have only two key figures and the 0CALYEAR is in rows. What I did was I right-clicked on "Key Figures" and clicked on New Selection. In the popup screen there is a button for variables. Clicking on it and then clicking on the "New" opton in the subsequent window brought me to the variable creation wizard. Interestingly this is a text variable creation wizard. Happily I created a text variable with replacement path and selected 0CALYEAR as the characteristic. Then I selected "Name(text)" for "Replace variable with" option. Everything went fine. Under key figures, I got an icon which is having a green triangle with a matrix cube (Apologies for explaning the situation like this :-). This is essentially the icon for characteristics. The description reads "&ZTXTVAR& New Selection". Now when I try to run the report I get an error saying "Use a Key Figure everywhere in the structure 'Keyfigures' ". I think the text variable is not getting created, instead a New selection is getting created. Please assist. Thanks!
    Regards,
    Prem.

  • Thread creation error: Not enough storage space

    Hi,
      Recently (the past week or so), my desktop client for Skype has been crashing regularly. This is accompanied by large (over 1.2GB) amounts of memory usage. At semi-regular intervals (say every few hours), Skype will post an error with the text "Thread creation error: Not enough storage space..."
    I am using the latest build of Skype. I am not performing any Skype logging. This error is clearly an ongoing issue which has not been addressed, as prior threads have discussed this as well.

    Errors like this have been addressed and continue to be addressed.  Being that the errors are related to memory leakage of one form or the other, the problem can have several sources and be agitated by several programs.  I personally run the latest version on all my machines in a 24/7 capacity and have not run into the problem.  Some versions in the past created a similar error for me, yet the latest has not.  If you've already updated your IE's flash and that has not alleviated the problem, the only other solution is running an earlier release that doesn't crash for you or restart Skype more often.  I've had virtual video devices trigger this behavior by simply launching the video settings once.  The virtual device even when not in use continued to consume memory under Skype until it crashed.  So if you use any virtual audio/video components you may want to remove them to see if that changes anything.  Some people have also blocked ads when those were the source.

  • Error in creating Text Variable

    Hi  Gurus,
    I have one requirement to create a text variable for the user & the user wants to put the description as input to the variable.
    But when i am creating the variable,the variable type "characteristic Value"  is by default selected and i am also unable to change the variable type to text variable.
    Please any body have the solution to resolve the error.

    Hi,
    Just select a particular key figure and on the right side you will see its properties..
    Now just besides the description of the key figure you will find a symbol for create variables, just click on that.. It will create a text variable...

  • How to pass variables to a program called from long text of an error msg ?

    Hi,
    The aim is the following: in the long text of an error message, there should be a link; this link must call a program or a transaction and pass to this program or transaction the four variables of the error message. Is it possible to insert such a link with parameters in the long text of the error message ? If yes, what is the syntax for this ?
    (I searched in the forum and found the way to insert a link to a transaction, but I found nothing about parameters).

    Thank you for the answer.
    Unfortunately, this solution is not applicable in my case. I'm using the application log and the scenario is the following:
    - the user displays the application log in transaction SLG1
    - he sees a lot of error and succes messages
    - by dubble-clicking on these messages, he displays the long text of the messages
    - I want a link in these long texts to a transaction using the variables of the messages. I tried inserting a link to a transaction, and the transaction is well called, but with a breakpoint I checked variables SY-MSGV1 to MSGV4 and they are empty.

  • Text Variable error "No value could be determined for variable " Brain 632

    Hi,
    I want to display current fiscal period as description in the colomn of a query.
    Ex. If current fiscal period is 005.2009 in the colomn it should display 2009005
    For that I have created a text variable.(Is it correct to create a text variable for this?)
    But it gives me following error.
    "No value could be determined for variable " Brain 632 Error.
    Please help.

    I assume that your requirement is suppose a user enter a date as 01/12/2010 - 31/12/2010 in the selection screen then he should get the data for this  range in one keyfigure and 01/11/2010 - 31/11/2010
    For this requirement you have to create one customer exit variable on calendar day :
    I have taken into account only the two values .
    Important is to take into account what if a month has 31 days and previous month has 30 days.
    The user exit will trow an error in this case .
    You need to handle this in the code .
    Data :
    day type string,
    year type string ,
    Month type string ,
    LS_Calday type Date.
    IF i_step = 2.
      CLEAR loc_var_range.
      READ TABLE i_t_var_range INTO loc_var_range
        WITH KEY vnam = 'Z_PCG1'.
    day = loc_var_range-low+6(2) .
    Year=loc_var_range-low+0(4).
    Month =loc_var_range-low+4(2) .
    if month = 01 ,
    year= year -1 .
    month = '12'
    concatenate year month day into LS_Calday .
    else if month = 03
    and day =31 or day = 30 or day = 29 .
    day = 28 .
    month = month -1 .
    month_high = month 
    concatenate year month day into LS_Calday .
    else if month = 05 or month = 07 or month = 10 .
    month = month -1 .
    concatenate year month day into LS_Calday .
        CLEAR l_s_range.
        l_s_range-low  = LS_Calday .
         l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
        l_s_range-opt  = 'EQ'.

  • Creation/modification dates text variable wrong

    I have a document where i wish to use the creation date amd modification date text variables.  However when htey are inserted into the document the date is wrong. My Local Date Time on the pc is correct.
    Has anyone else experienced this issue? I am running ID CS4 if that helps.
    Thanks for any help in advance.

    Well I created the document yesterday. 18/10/2012 and it brings up a creation date of 27/02/12.
    But creating another new doucment it shows correctly.
    So all i can assume is that there may have been another file created on that date with the same name and it is taking that date even though this is a new document

  • SSM 7.0 - Text variable error - Could not acces to Reports

    Hi SSM experts,
    We are implementing SSM 7.0 SP6 HF1.
    After the implementation of a text variable in PAS in order to include it in a report we have lost the access to the reports and the entry and approval settings.
    These are the main steps we followed:
    1.- Data model created via Cube Builder
    2.- Data loaded via Entry and Approval.
    3.- With that model the Scorecard and a set of reports were working as expected.
    4.- After that we created a text measure directly in PAS via the following command: CREATE yearly TEXT NONKPI50_ACT 'KPI text'.
    4.- Due to this creation we have lost the access to the reports in SSM UI and to the Entry and Approval settings in SSM Admin.
    Could anyone please advice us in order to solve the problem?
    We have realized that if we delete in PAS the text variable created everything returns to the original situation and everything works ok.
    Did we create the text variable ok? Is it possible to create text variables in a model created via Cube
    Builder and loaded via Entry and Approval?
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Kind regards,
    Santiago

    Robert, Ricardo,
    this text variable is just a variable to be used in a navigator report, not to be used in SC. Sorry if I was not clear.
    Robert, I will deal this probelm with the customer message team but if anybody has came up with this problem in any project please let me know how to solve it.
    Anyway I will check how CONSTANT TEXT works. I will appreciate if you would let me know the result of your checkings.
    Thank you very much for your help.

  • Error in Display of Text variable

    Hello gurus,
    I have a requirement in which power user wants to see the output as follows :
    Product sold of Current year for months --- to -
         /  Product Sold of Previous year for months --- to -
    So if on Selection screen ,user enters months 01/2005- 05/2005
    it should show the
    Product sold for 01/2005-05/2005  / Product sold for 01/2004-05/2004
    So i created 2 text variables one for start period and second for ending period.
    I included this in the display of 1st column.
    It is coming perfectly.
    Now how shall i include or do this for 2nd column.
    In second column i just set the offsets value so data is coming right
    If i restrict those with time chara.
    But in display of 2nd column ,
    WHAT SETTINGS I DO FOR TEXT VARIABLES.
    plust the requirement is that.
    User shall enter the Value of range of months only ONCE.

    Hi Noviced
    1.  Create a variable having user input enabled for calmonth range.

  • How to create Text Variables in BEx Query Designer

    How  can i create Text Variables in Bex Q.D.
    I am able to create characteristic variables
    but i can't find option to create text variables.
    What's the requirement to create Text variables in Bex Q.D.
    When i try to create Text variable for 0calDay.. the variable type is characteristic by Default and disabled.
    How can i create text variables related to 0CalDay with which i need to work in Customer Exit.

    Hi,
    You have to create characteristic variable processing by Customer Exit by considering 0CalDay as a Reference Characteristic
    After creation of the above variable, you restrict your KF with the above created variable.
    Now you can create a Text variable for the description of your KF. This way it works...........
