Total of Hierarchy

I have 0Product Hierarchy activated in the Row. The Hierarch has 3 level.
In column, there are 3 Key Figure - A, B and C.
Column C is the Average Amount, the fomular is Total of the 0Product Hierarchy divided by current Hierarchy Level.
Question is how can I get the Total of the 0Product Hierarchy?

Hi,
Yes, I am using Account Number in my Query.
The Account Number is placed in the Rows, with Hierarchy option activated.
In the Accoutn Number characteristic property, the Display of Results ->Suppress Results Rows is "Never".
what do you mean by "and display resultsd just before object to hierarchy (I guess account number)."?
Please help.

% of Total, no hierarchy

I'm trying to create a calculated measure showing % of Total Net Sales, something like Rank or TopCount but showing % Value. I tried "parent" but since I do not have hierarchy in the dimension , it gave 100% for every dim value.
a - how to do it for a certain dimension (say Vendor) that does not Hierarchy, just has "[Vendor Name]"?
b - can this calculated Measure be done/ created on Net Sales but run for all/any dimension?

Hi
Yes, it is possible and even you can easily achieve the fully dynamic of any dimension and measure selections

Totals for Hierarchy in the bex Explorer not coming

Hi All,
I have made a query in which i have given G/L hierarchy variable in selection. When the result output comes then the query brings the result row for all other hierarchies except one. I changed the hierrachy attribute of that hier in BI..and made it 'Root/totals item appears above'. Still the reult row wasn't coming for that.
I also did the following..
I made the extended for G/l accout characteristic in the query as 'Characteric selection' insted of posted values'. if i do so then when the first time query is executed it gives an error...and on executing it second time it brings the output...in which the result row for the one hierarchy which was not coming starts coming.
But in whatever case the result is always coming 0 for all hierrachies.
please tell me how do i get the reult correctly.
reply soon..

Niyati

I am using Windows OS.
I right click and and click on the Insert Key Frame. and click on the Button Image.
I used to get the filter properties. After a while I dont know what I changed.
That dissaapeared. I see it some feature enabling of that feature.
As I am getting it for the text I am supposed to get that for the image as well, but I get only the Color option.
Thanks for your time in looking in to my issue.

Grand totals across hierarchy

What's the best way to calculate a grand total across a hierarchy (using hierarchical grouping)?

Hi Mike,
just a thought: Your aim is to have something like Total Sales (actual year) / Total Sales(previous year) displayed in your report. This is a total summary calculated upon a certain key figure which is included in the query.
The partial summaries of your key figure are delivered correctly from your SAP system in CR for each hierarchy level. Since a total summary is not delivered the problem is now that you do not have access to the sums for the sales of the previous year in your query. This way you could sum up in CR the sales for the actual and the previous year and calculate the total percentage manually at the end.
Assuming now that you do have the partial sums of the sales for the actual year in your query though, you can indirectly calculate the partial sums for the previous year :
Sales(previous year)@HieracrhyLevel X = Sales(actual year)@HierarchyLevel X / Percentage Key Figure@Hierarchy Level X.
All you have to do now is to pick up a specific hierarchy level (you know how to do this) and sum up the calculated sales from previous year and do your percentage calculation based on the total sums at the end.
Hopefully you do have the sales of the actual year in your query as a separate key figure.

Error in executing a layout which has a hierarchy in lead column

Hi Experts,
I have used a planning level where a characteristic called 'reporting code' is restricted with a hierarchy.
Now when I am trying to execute a layout under this level I am getting some error. The characteristic is used in the lead column in this layout.Two differene type of error I am getting in following two different cases.
1. When I am using the hierarchical settings for the lead column then I am getting the error 'Hierarchy INPUT is not suited to the planning mode.
2. When I am not using the hierarchical settings for the lead column then I am getting the error 'Too many characteristic combinations for manual planning'.
If I reduce the no of nodes in the hierarchy for testing then none of this error is coming. So I think this is related to the volume of the hierarchy.
Can anybody put some light on this why this error is coming and how to resolve this error?
Regards,
Saikat Datta Gupta.

In case of text hierarchies, wherein we can plan only on leaves, for the layout to be displayed in a hierarichal manner, we need the following settings.
In the first screen of the layout builder, next to the layout description, click on the hierarchy icon, choose non-hierarchical data model and in the additional settings, all possible char combinations.
In the last screen of the layout builder, in lead column settings, check display totals as hierarchy.
With the above settings, layout shows the result in hierarchy mode.
In BPS layout, the no of rows will be limited. As you have given all possible combinations, system tries to display the entire hierarchy, i think which is exceeding the max limit. Try reducing the hierarchy size or keep the additional settings as "Transaction data" and check if the problem persists.

Difference in Hierarchy node data

hi experts,
i have an issue related to the data display in a query. I had executed a query which displays the data on the basis of Hierarchy of Cost center. in total of Hierarchy ie, the at the root node of the hier. the data is coming 3000k against a GL Account where as when i expend that node there is only one cost center exists that has some different figure against the same GL account 5000K.
Next day the figures were rectified by itsellf
the query is developed on MP & it includes the cube of actual data in which data is extracted on hourly basis. also cube has aggregates.
i wonder why this is happening?? can anyone advice the suggestion??
do i need to work on aggregates also? is it possible that aggregates become corrupt?? if so, then how can they be rectified??
thanks in advance
Neha

Hi Neha.
Some thoughts:
Maybe for the hierarchy you are suppressing the "nodesnotconnected", which is the residual node where all the costcenters that are not explicitly assigned to the hierarchy are placed. In this case, I think the total on the hierarchy root will also include the postings from the nodesnotconnected, but because you are suppressing it you cannot see the "missing" 2000 anywhere.
So, let's assume that the 2000 where posted to a costcenter that for some reason is not assigned to the hierarchy. The next day, someone realised that it was posted to the wrong costcenter, reverses the posting and puts the 2000 on the correct costcenter, which is in fact assigned to the hierarchy. Now you load the data, and voila, the numbers match.
Something like this maybe?

Hierarchy - Repeated Values - 0ORGUNIT

I want to do an absence report to show employees absence. I want to show the absence by orgunit and have it displayed in the hierarchy order for 0RGUNIT. However I dont want to repeat data. For example the top level orgunit group shows all employees but these are then repeated in lower groups until the lowest orgunit group (the one they are actually attached to) is shown. I only want the employee to feature against their actual orgunit and for the higher level orgunits groups to just have a totals e.g the highest level org unit should give an overall total for absence without listing employees. Is this do-able?

Hello Joel,
I guess it can not be achieved because
employee to feature against their actual orgunit - Simply with out showing hierarchy of orgunit.
higher level orgunits groups to just have a totals - with hierarchy needs to be shown for orgunit.
Rather you can have the display the report as below.
1) You will have orgunit , and display it as hierearchy with no nodes shown initially in the report. So higher management will see totals
2) And for lower management you can shown them to drill down further to their orgunit and see the results.
Thanks

Master Dataload is taking long time to complete

Hi
In last couple of weeks, we are experience the delay for master dataload job. These dataload should take 5-8 minute to complete but it is taking more then 5 hour to complete. here we are using process chain for master dataload.
Any idea? We don't understand where to start to check the root cause of this problem.
Regards
Amar

Hi Freinds
Some update of our master dataload. Still not resolved.
Seem to me, our problem is related to Hierarchy in BW server.It is taking long time to update the hierarchy in BW server. As i told you, problem occur only when loading master dataload. For transaction dataload, no IDOC get stuck in R/3 (NPR) server. There are enough resources in both R/3 and BW server for trfc.
There are total 9 hierarchy in the master dataload that is delaying in the process for update. If you have seen this type of problem for the following hierarchy, pls update me.

Poor performance

I was wondering if anyone has encountered this type of problem with Oracle OLAP before whereby a query against relational tables runs much quicker than an equivalent query against a OLAP cube (10.2)
We have setup a very simple use case for Oracle OLAP and we are testing performance against an equivalent relational query.
The cube that we have built comprises of 3 dimensions and 1 measure, each dimension has a standard simple hierarchy.
The cube is populated from relational tables with these data volumes.
Calendar - 50
Sales Person – 10,000
Product – 400,000
Measure – 30,000
Queries
Most queries against the cube view run in a satisfactory time however when we drop to the lowest level and execute a logical query like
Select Product, Sales_Value
From CubeView
Where Day=sysdate
And sales_person=’John Smith’
the query runs approximately 100 times slower than the equivalent relational query. It also returns all products that have no measures.
We have explored dense looping without any success.
I suppose my question is can this be expected as we are running a transactional style query against a MOLAP product or is there something we can do improve this performance.

1) the SQL query we are executing
select dim1, sales
from SALES_CUBEVIEW
where dim2 = '9'
and dim3 = '1'
and dim1_level = 'DETAIL'
and dim2_level = 'DETAIL'
and dim3_level = 'DETAIL'
and olap_condition(olap_calc, ' LIMIT sales!dim1 KEEP sales_sales NE NA ',1) = 1
and olap_condition(olap_calc, ' LIMIT sales!dim2 KEEP sales_sales NE NA ',1) = 1
and olap_condition(olap_calc, ' LIMIT sales!dim3 KEEP sales_sales NE NA ',1) = 1;
2) the DDL for the OLAP view
declare v int;
begin
--delete from olap_views.olap_mappings where cube_name like 'SALES%';
v := olap_views.olap_viewGenerator.generateCubeMap ('GLOBAL', 'SALES', 'SALES');
olap_views.olap_viewGenerator.createCubeView ('GLOBAL', 'SALES','SALES');

BPS initial value at Planning Level

Hello All
I am getting error while using BW Hierarchy at planning level.
i find the solution at Including # initial value using hierachy
but its not working
i am getting this error "Characteristic Funds Center does not contain the initial value in the selection ".
I try resolve the way suggested in old thread but its not working. I can only put either # or include Hierarchy at planning level.
When I tried to use # it does not display Hierarchy in layout.
if I include Hierarchy it gives error of "Characteristic Funds Center does not contain the initial value in the selection"
Thanks in advance.
Rinku

If this error is just coming on execution of a planning layout the problem could be with your layout configuration, you should not select the hierarchy option in the first screen of layout config, only select totals by hierarchy on third screen of layout config and you should get the display you're after.
(I think this error message can also arise when a compounding characteristic is not properly restricted)

Preview User Point of View

I have noted an odd behavior in Financial Reporting for some but not all users. When users are prompted for the point of view selection, for the Entity dimension all of the members are listed and not shown hierarchically. This is true of only Entity and only for some users. All other dimensions behave normally and only a few users have experienced this. Users seeing this behavior include interactive users and planners. Has anyone run into this, know what causes it, how to fix it?
(We are running EPM 11.1.1.2)
Thanks.

Hi,
It seems that there is problem in POV setting. Affected users need to set the POV of reports again.
In this issue it might be possible that in users POV specific entity members are present,instead of that users have to select total entity hierarchy in users POV setting.
Hope this will help...!

BPS application u0093Excel Web Componentu0094 = TRUE

Hello all,
<b>A little explaining to set you in the spot:</b>
Were implementing BPS layouts using hierarchies which looks very nice when its web based but if in my WIB I set my layouts Excel Web Component to true: my BPS page will no longer show the hierarchies it has assigned.
<b>Here comes my question:</b>
Is their any way I could have my BPS application Excel Web Component activated and still continue to have a visual hierarchy in my web page?
Thank you all in advance.

Jorge Balart.

Jorge,
       In the third step of your layout definition, make sure you check your totals by
       hierarchy and also check the Publish for Web in the same step.Save your
       layout and execute it on WIB, you should be able to see your hierarchy
       in excel on the web.
       Hope this helps.

MB5B: Amount in LC not selectable from the Layout

dear sap mm gurus,
i'd like to ask how to make "Amount in LC" appear in the MB5B layout.
some users have the column while others don't.
i'm trying to change the layout but it is not available as column content. is this an authorization issue?
would appreaciate your prompt response. thanks a lot.
best regards,

Hi
When you run this report with the option *totals only - hierarchial representation * then you can see amount in local currency option (after running the report click on current display version CTRL+F8 and then click position tab). This is not an authorization issue.

New employee organization hierarchy version in HRMS doubles dashboard totals in OBIEE

Hi,
On creation of a new version of the Employee Organization hierarchy, some of the OBIEE dashboards & analyses that were oracle seeded function show ...
Total Employee headcount = total employee headcount from hierarchy ver 1 + total emp headcount hierarchy ver 2
Which is incorrect and misleading in the reports. (Similar issues for FTE..... )
Firstly, is this normal ----- or has the versioning been implemented incorrectly, or is there missing aggregation at the Ebusiness, BI rpd or dashboard level?
Secondly, what is the best solution to display the relevant hierarchy based on the report dates?
If there is further aggregation needed, how can this be added without needing to update it every time a new employee organization hierarchy version is copied?
Thanks,

Hi,
You need to create the drill down report also using selection steps. I tried the drill down was working fine.
Thanks
