Time Buckets with multiple Key Figures in Each

Hello Experts,
I have seen documents creation of ageing buckets and calculations but not seen any document with ageing bucket having multiple Key Figures part of it.
User's have used Excel to create Bucket header and using V and H lookups they are populating data in to those columns. Is there a way we can achieve this in Bex Designer? Below is what needed on report which would give user's overview of Current Week, Previous Week, Last 4 weeks and Last 13 weeks. I have attached Snapshot for better Understanding
From Excel--->
Target
Current Week
Last 4 Weeks
Utilization
Billable

Hi Sam
If week is your time period analysis then create a structure in columns, above your key figures, based on week selections variable.

I don't think that you will find such a document.

Multiple Key Figures and SINGEDATA

Hi Experts,
There are different Key Figures in BI like Amount, Quantity, Number, Integer, Date, Time, and the associated Unit. Whereas, in BPC there is only one type of object is used for recording quantitative values for transaction in BPC, that is SINGEDDATA. This object is equivalent to a Key Figure in SAP NetWeaver BI. So, while extracting data from BI to BPC, there are multiple Key Figures in BI, then how to take these multiple Key Figures in BPC? Do we need to take multiple SINGEDDATA?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks

Hello Qakbar -
The typical practice is to map each BW key figure to a combination of SIGNDATA and another dimension, such as ACCOUNT (or any combination of one or more dimensions). BPC is a true account based data model (only one key figure).
You can use BW transformations along with Rule Groups to define how each multiple key figure based BW record can be broken into separate single key figure records. These records can be stored in a BW staging cube for easy import into BPC upon demand.
Alternatively, you could use the BPC transformation command, MVAL, to allow loading of multiple Keyfigure BW records directly into BPC.

Model multiple key figures of BI cube to BPC

Hi Experts,Probably a good way of having multiple Key figure values from BI to BPC is to convert it into a account based model (create a dimension and have the key figures as dimension members).I have this scenraio where we are using COPA (costing based) for BPC mgmt consol.This costing based COPA cube in BI has around 120 Key figures.Pls advice on the best way to medel this scnerio in BPC where i would probably need most of those Kf's.I am also looking at how i could reduce separate transformation files/mappings from BI to BPC also on the same..
Many thanks
savvvy

Hi ,
Thank you Pravin and Ajay for your valuable suggestions and time.what i would like to clarify is on the transformations.Let us say i have my BI cube as costing based itself and this i need to map to BPC dimension.
BI structure- char1 ,char 2,char 3 ,KF1(value field 1),KF2(value field 2),KF3(valuefield3),KF4....
In BPC ,lets say we have a separate dimension (i guess this should be of account type or probably user defined one) which would have dimension members as KF1,KF2,KF3,KF4....
Now how would i do the mapping/transformations from BI to BPC? would i need to have 4different transformation files (assuming i have 4 KF's in my BI cube) for each KF & char combination and thus to load data also many times.
How to achieve modelling side of this situation.any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.
many thanks

How to insert autoincrement record and query it with multiple keys

Hi all,
I am not familiar with BerkeyleyDB, I am now doing a project that needs to insert records and then query it out with multiple keys at later time. Since there is no field that can be distinct primary key, I want to user DbSequence as auto increment primary key to db, and set other index keys as secondary db, then using join cursor to do query with multiple keys.
I don't know how to use DbSequence, can anyone direct me to a example of using DbSequence as auto increment primary key?
Regards
-Bruce

I figured out the method to insert record with auto increment primary key. I listed the code block below:
char m_SeqNamePositions[32] = "MyPositions";
DbSequence *m_pSeqPositions;
m_pDBPositions = new Db(NULL, 0);
          m_pDBPositions->open(NULL, pszFileName, szFileName, DB_BTREE, DB_CREATE, 0);          // 无数据文件
          m_pSeqPositions = new DbSequence(m_pDBPositions, 0);
          Dbt key((void *)m_SeqNamePositions, (u_int32_t)strlen(m_SeqNamePositions));
          m_pSeqPositions->open(NULL, &key, DB_CREATE);
db_seq_t SeqNum;
     m_pSeqPositions->get(0, 1, &SeqNum, 0);
     Dbt key((void *)&SeqNum, (u_int32_t)sizeof(SeqNum));
     Dbt data(pRecord, sizeof(*pRecord));
     return m_pDBPositions->put(NULL, &key, &data, DB_NOOVERWRITE);
m_pSeqPositions->close(0);
          m_pDBPositions->close(0);
delete m_pSeqPositions;
delete m_pDBPositions;
          m_pDBPositions = NULL;

Reports with only key figures? How to layout?

Hi anyone,
Could you kindly advise? I have a financial report which is about 20 key figures ex. Sales, Cash discounts, Revenue from operations, Gross Margin, Operating profit and Overheads % of sales...
For each of these areas I need to have 9 seperate numerical values:
Actual value (by month)
Last Year value (by month):
Budget value (by month)
Actual value ( year to date)
% of sales (ytd)
Last year value (ytd)
Budget value (ytd)
Full yr value (full yr)
Budget value (full yr)
This can lead to 20keyfiguresX9timeperiods = 180 numbers in the report. As I don't have any characteristics, it seems I'll end up with a very very long row.. Has anyone experience fixing this sort of issue?

Hi
Sorry for the earlier post for not explaining...
There are two ways you can do.
First way is meddling with the modelling....
Create 9 infoobject charecterisitcs with CHAR TYPE NUM and feed them with the key figures timeperiods thru update rule routine......Use this 9CHAR -> fed by kfs into Cube and you can use 2 structures...as far as the system is concerned you are using one structure of kf and one for chars.......
Second way...if ur using BEx you can think of Macros

Problem with a key figure restriction

Hi,
I have a problem with one key figure in report: in infocube, this key figure is aggrigated for all the profit centers (summation). In infocube, there is a value '150' for each profit centers (100 pieces) and in the report it is counting 150*100=15000. However, it shouldn't count the sum of all entries in the infocube but show only one value in the report which would be '150'.
I think this should be possible to do but I just don't know how. Hope somebody is able to help me. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If the values are same for all profit center then change the Profit center infoobject property in the query design to show the maximum values for the 'calculation result as' parameter

Combine multiple key figures in single key figure

Hi,
We have a requirement where we need to put multiple key figures into a single key figure
For example source DSO is as follows (+ Unit object):
Region    |   Date           |    Amount |    Quantity
Asia        | 01-01-2008 |    100        |    1000
Eurpoe    | 02-02-2008 |     200       |     2000
In Target DSO / Cube, the data must appear like this (no Unit Object)
Region    |   Date            | Type        |    Value
Asia       |   01-01-2008   |   Amount   |    100
Asia       |   01-01-2008   |   Quantity |    1000
Eurpoe   |   02-02-2008   |   Amount   |     200
Eurpoe   |   02-02-2008   |   Quantity |     2000
How do we achieve this?
Regards,
Nikhil

Hi
Write a strart routine that maps Type ->Amount and Quantity,Value -> Kf of Amount or Quantity
Put these chars into Key fields in target DSO = Region | Date | Type ,that will assure unique entries
Bye

Problem with restricted key-figure using off-set variable

Hello Gurus,
I have created a query in Bex Query Designer with a key figure restricted. This key figure shows me the 0amount value for the last month. When I select 003.2009, the key figure brings the 002.2009 values. I used an off-set variable to do this
It works!
But when I show this key-figure in Webi, no value shows up on the table.
Any suggestions?
tks

Which variable are you using in BEx and in WEBI to restrict the month/year?

Time Capsule with multiple users. Data Safe?

Hi.
I was just wondering if the I use Time Capsule with multiple users (multiple macs) I believe the backups are all seperated and password protected. Am I right?
But what about the migration assistant? Doesn't the migration assistant help you to transfer your data from one mac to your new one without asking for a password? So wouldn't it be easy to use the migration assistant to get data of another time capsul backup?
At the work place of my girlfriend they are using time capsul, and I'm not sure if I would advise her to backup her data to that timecapsule. Ok you can exclude folders, but not the mailaccount.

Youknowthebo wrote:
Thanks for the reply.
But isn't it possible to transfer data from an old user account to a new account with a different name? Wouldn't that overide the password prompt?
No more or less than on your Mac.
I mean I understand that if you migrate a user account from one mac to another you wouldn't gain access to the home folder of that user, but as I understood the migration assistant it is possible to migrate data to a folder of your choice. I did not try it yet but that's what I (maybe misunderstood) read here http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/19.html
No. You can select which user accounts to transfer, but you can't transfer one user's data to another.

Query problem with accumulated key figures

Hi BI Gurus!
I have a report problem that I hope you can help me with!
In my report I have 2 key figures. One for accumulated revenue previous year (KF1) and one for accumulated revenue current year (KF2). Both key figures should be presented in a graph in monthly buckets.
January figures from both the key figures shoule be presented in the same bucket. Therfore I can't use 0CALYEAR since we have the "year" information in there. Instead I'm using 0CALMONTH2 which is only two digits, 01 for January. That way I can map figures from both previous year and current year in the same bucket.
I need the figures to be accumulated and this is what I have problem with. When I run the report today in February 2010 it looks like this:
Month   KF1   KF2
01        10     15
02        10     20
03        15
04        10
05        20
06        10
07        10
08        15
09        15
10        20
11        20
12        10
This is how I would like the report to look like:
Month   KF1   KF2
01        10     15
02        20     35
03        35
04        45
05        65
06        75
07        85
08        100
09        115
10        135
11        155
12        165
I have tried to use the setting "accumulated" for the key figures but then I get this result:
Month   KF1   KF2
01        10     15
02        20     35
03        35     35
04        45     35
05        65     35
06        75     35
07        85     35
08        100   35
09        115   35
10        135   35
11        155   35
12        165   35
Since the KF2 is revenue for current year and I run the report in February I don't want any figures to be displayed in Mars...
I have tried to restrict the key figures by 0CALMONTH2 and 0CALYEAR. The KF1 is havein a restriction to only show values for 0CALYEAR - 1 and an interval for 0CALMONTH2 from JAN - DEC.
The KF2 is having a restriction to only show values in the interval "first month in year - current month" (in this example JAN - FEB) for 0CALMONTH2. And current year for 0CALYEAR.
Despite my restrictions for KF2 the numpers repeats itself for every month...
Any suggestion how I can resolve this?
Best regards
Anders Florin

Hi Khaled and thank you for trying to help me!
I agree with you and think the users should accept the report as it is. But they are claiming that top management will not accept this and they would really want this to be fixed the whay that they want. I have tried to push back on this and said that I'm not sure that it can be resoleved and that it could cost them a lot of money if I try.
But I will try to resolve it for them if I have spare time in the end of the project. I have not promised them anything but it would really be nice if I could fix it.
So when you say I need to use a structure and a calculated key figure. How should the calculated key figure and the structure be configured?
If I use a structure in the rows I guess I can't use same object in calc.key.figure right? Like if I use 0CALMONTH2 in the structure I'm not able to restrict the key figure with the same object? If that is correct I also have a ZMONTH object, different story why I have that... , that I can use in the same way as 0CALMONTH2. Or is this only a problem when I use "local" formulas within the query and not using a "global" calculated key figure? Cause I have only used the "loacal" formula calculated key figure in this report....

Time Machine with multiple users on single computer

Hi All,
I have an iMac at home with multiple user log ons. I'm about to get the Time Capsule and start using Time Machine (currently I use backup).
When I switch on Time Machine, does it switch on for all users, or will each user need to turn on Time Machine?
If I have to switch on Time Machine for each user, will each user's time machine back up the entire computer (so I'll have two complete copies on my computer on the external drive)?
If this does occur, can I control what Time Machine backs up so TM only backs up user specific information?
Thanks in advance,
Chris

When you first backup it will backup your whole system (user directories, system directories, applications, etc) unless you specify folders to exclude. When a user account is added to the computer, their home folder will be added to the backup in a similar way to if you added a new application. It will back up the directory structure exactly as it is on your main hard drive. The backup will essentially keep a copy of the whole hard drive on the backup drive.
The Time Machine will either be on for the whole system, or off for the whole system. It is not on or off for a specific user account. Users (depending on if they've got admin privileges) may have control over turning time machine on or off, but this does not change who can access the backups. All users will be able to invoke Time Machine to get to their backed up files.
Time Machine does not make separate backups for individual users. Instead, it preserves the permissions for backed up files, so while every user can access the backups, they cant just browse other users' files on the backup. The same restrictions on the main drive are carried over to the backup. Still, a standard user who's lost a file will be able to go into Time Machine, access a backed up version of the file, and restore it. Unlike standard users who are restricted from seeing other users' files in the backups, Admins are also restricted but they can be authenticated to view other users' files if they want to.

Problem with restricted key figures

Hi all,
I have four restricted key figures in my structure each one is restricted Fiscal period with user entry variable but when i execute the report and check one of the restricted keyfigure is actually not restricting the values.
suppose user entered 10.2006 in the selection for fiscal period then one of the column Goods receipts QTY which is restricted with Fiscal period display values other than that of 10.2006
Did anyone faced such problem earlier?
Please let me know if anyone had a clue.
Thanks in advance

Hi gopi,
Thanks for all of the restricted keyfigures it is "include value".

Problem with Restricted Key Figures Please Solve

Dear All.
i restrict the key figure on some GL's for Cumulative balance, this RKF show me the result base on the 0CALMONTH which is select in the variable screen.
i created one more RKF with the same GL's but i restrict that RKF also with fix 0Calmonth say DEC2008.
but the problem is when i run the report it shows me that data correct, but when i bring the 0CALMONTH on top of the Key Figure structure it only show me the data for selected month for the fix month RKF the result come empty.
my requirement is that i have to select month range and i need to show every month value minus the Dec2008 value, this only works if i donot bring the 0CALMONTH on top of Key figure structure but i want to keep it on the top of KF structure so i can show each month value - dec2008 value.
Please explain how can i control this.
Kind regards,

Dear Chandu.
I am creating the RKF on Cummulative Balance KF by restricting it with some combinations of GL's, let say the name of RKF is TRADE_Accounts.
My requirement is to give Calmonth selection from the variable in interval let say from 01.2009 - 05.2009
i simply want to display TRADE_Account balance for each month in selection but by doing the minus the value of Trade_Account from the same RKF i.e. TRADE_Account_2 which i restrict on DEC2008.
so i created Two RKF for KF cummulative balance one is restricted with 0CALMONTH value for DEC2008 only.
then i create on CKF let TRADE_BALANCE = TRADE_Account2008 - TRADE_Account.
and place the CKF in Key Figure Structure, it work fine but problem comes when i try to bring 0CALMonth on top of key figure structure so i can show the result for each selected month.
when i do this it only shows the Balance for selected months but it did not minus it with the other RKF i.e. TRADE_Account2008.
when for testing i also put the TRADE_Account2008 in Key figure structure it shows empty result when the 0CALMONTH is on top of the Key figure structure.
Please explain how can i achieve this.
Kind regards,

Access on aggregated levels with virtual key figures

Hi all,
I need access to the aggregated view of a BEx report within user-exit RSR00002 for processing virtual key figures. Currently I only get access to the lowest non-aggregated level.
My requirements in detail:
I get certain key-figures (250 historical values)on the lowest aggregation level - so-called folders. Then I have to aggregate this vector of values at the next hierarchy level up to the top-level, say along-side a company's business department structure. Drill-down, slice&dice should be possible. So far so good - this is done easily with standard BEx features.
Then, on each aggregation level, i.e. hierarchy node, I need to get the third lowest of the 250 aggregated values to assign this to my vkf. This is not an issue of the algorithm but of the internal data representation or access to the OLAP processor because I don't get this vector on the same aggregated level such as I could see it in my BEx report but on the lowest non-aggregated folder level.
The question is now:
a. Is data access on aggregated levels and drill-downs because of the internal representation generally not possible within this user-exit and would I have to supply the aggragation logic myself or
b. do I have overlooked something critical - did I miss the trick?
Every idea or hint is deeply welcome!!
Thanks a lot,
Michael

How to query berkeley db with multiple keys

Hi all,
Is there a way to query a berkeleydb using multiple keys. For example, I want to query a order record with orderID and orderDirection, orderID is a string and orderDirection is a char.
Is there a way to do so?
Regards,
-Bruce

Hi Bruce,
Yes, you would use the same approach with a join cursor.
Here is a simple example, simplified for brevity. Suppose the primary database "books" stores information about books, and that these books could have multiple authors. Following is some example data and the structure of these databases:
books.db (primary db -- ISBN is primary key)
isbn_1 | {author_1, author_2; ...}
isbn_2 | {author_2; ...}
isbn_3 | {author_1, author_3; ...}
booksAuthors.db (secondary db -- author is the secondary key, the secondary key extractor generates multiple keys)
author_1 | isbn_1
author_1 | isbn_3
author_2 | isbn_1
author_2 | isbn_2
author_3 | isbn_3
To get the books authored by author_1 and author_2 for example, you would do the following:
- position a cursor in the booksAuthors.db secondary db, using DBcursor->get() with the DB_SET flag, on the records whose key (secondary key) is author_1;
The cursor will be positioned on the duplicates list for author_1:
author_1 | isbn_1
author_1 | isbn_3
- position a cursor in the booksAuthors.db secondary db, using DBcursor->get() with the DB_SET flag, on the records whose key (secondary key) is author_2, hence duplicates list for author_2:
author_2 | isbn_1
author_2 | isbn_2
- create a join cursor using DB->join, using the previous two cursors.
An excerpt from the above documentation page explains the way a join cursor works:
"Joined values are retrieved by doing a sequential iteration over the first cursor in the curslist parameter, and a nested iteration over each secondary cursor in the order they are specified in the curslist parameter. This requires database traversals to search for the current datum in all the cursors after the first."
Hence, the data item (primary key from the primary db) that results is isbn_1.

Andrei
