Unable to find key figure attribute in the cube

Hi all of you,
I am struggling while working on this "Display Attribute". Please read this and help me out.
I want to create attributes and then load data into a cube.
I had created an InfoArea IA_ATTRIBUTES.
Under this IA_ATTRIBUTES I created an InfoObject Catalog IOC_DISPATTR.
Under IOC_DISPATTR I created an InfoObject ZCUSTNUMB which is my primary key.
After defining the ZCUSTNUMB I clicked on the Attributes tab and entered the other attributes like ZCUSTNAME, ZCUSTADDR, ZCUSTREGI, ZCUSTLOCA, and ZPRICE. All of these attributes except ZPRICE are characteristics WHILE ZPRICE is a keyfigure.
I've also made sure that the Attributes only check box is not checked for all the characteristics.
I then activated the InfoObject ZCUSTNUMB and came back.
Now I created a cube DISP_ATTR. I clicked on the InfoObject Catalog button and selected the above mentioned catalog IOC_DISPATTR and transferred the IOs from the template into the structure.
Now when I transfer IOs in this way all the IOs both characteristics and key figures should come into the structure of the cube isnt't. But only characteristics have come and the keyfigure ZPRICE hasn't come.
Moreover when I hit on the key figures tab and hit on the find button and find ZPRICE I am getting a message saying "No (further) object found". So when I hit on the create button and create a key figure ZPRICE I am getting a message saying "InfoObject ZPRICE already exists as Key Figure (please rename)".
However when I double click on ZCUSTNUMB which is the primary key, the screen "Display characteristic ZCUSTNUMB: Detail" opens. In this screen I find all the attributes in the attributes tab that I had defined while defining attributes including ZPRICE.
So what I don't understand is when all the characteristics IOs are visible under the characteristics tab then why am I unable to find the key figure ZPRICE under Key figures tab when I created it while defining attributes. Can anyone please explain me this situation and tell me how should I find the key figure ZPRICE so that I can go ahead and create the cube.
Lastly I want to know what are the differences between InfoObjects and Attributes. Is an attribute also an IO?
Please explain.
I would appropriately rewards your answers.
Thank you.
TR.

Hi Oscar Romero,
Thanks a lot for your reply. As per your suggestion I created another IOC FOR key figures called IOC_ATTR_KF. In this IOC I had included the key figure ZPRICE and activated the IOC.
Now I have created a cube again ATTR_DISP. On the right corner where we find 5 buttons I clicked on the InfoObject Catalog button. The screen "Select InfoObject Catalog" opened displaying the IOC_ATTR_KF that I had created earlier. When I double clicked on the IOC_ATTR_KF I got the msg asking "Do you want to transfer the IOs from the template into the structure?" I clicked on Yes. But I don't find any key figures either in the Structure pane or in the Template pane. Both the panes are empty.
I also clicked on the All InfoObjects button and searched for ZPRICE but again I am getting the message "No "further) object found". However when I try to create ZPRICE I am getting the message ZPRICE already exists.
Please explain me why this is happening like this?

Key Figure Attribute not displaying in Query Designer

Hello Experts,
I have an InfoObject which has Key Figures as attributes. When creating a query I <b>once</b> was able to see these Key Figure attributes in the Query Designer. Howerver, recently I am not able to see them anymore in our DEV environment.
In our QA and PROD environment I am to see these Key Figures attribues in Query Designer. Is there a setting that I am overlooking? We are currently on BW 3.5 with SP 19.
Please help!
Thanks in advance,

Key figure Attributes not working

Hi ALL,
We have an isuue with one of our Planning book. Key figures which are supposed to be open for editing are showing as output only and key figures which are for output only are showing as open for editing.
I went to design mode to tried to change in manually , if I chane one row attribute all rows are getting changed.
I found a macro which assigns Key figure attributes which I tried to activate but still not working. We are using SAP SCM 4.1 Version.
Can any advice on this?
Sivarama

Thanks Problem is now solved. Looks like some has made changes in the design and there are macros which are working and as you said they might be conflicting. I changed the design which was working weired yesterday when I tried to cande one row attribute and all rows are getting applied, this worked fine today. And I deactivated the macro which is working on some row attributes and activated again.
I am not very clear what went right but working.

Populate key figure attributes values for material & location in inventory

Hi all,
We have a Inventory Infocube. the dimensions of the inventory infocube contains material, location and material-location and also the time dimension with calday, week and month. The different key figures in the infocube are Unrestricted Stock Balances, Unrestricted Stock Receipts, Unrestricted Stock Issues, QI Stock Balances, QI Stock Issues, QI Stock Reciepts, Blocked Stock Balances, Blocked Stock Receipts, Blocked Stock Issues. The following is the definition for master data objects
Material Master - ATTRIBUTES :- Business Unit, Manufacturing Plant, Base to Case Conversion Factor(key figure attribute)
Location Master - ATTRIBUTES:- City, State, Country, Location Type
Material Location master - ATTRIBUTES:- Material, Location, MRP Controller, Source Location, Standard Cost(key figure attribute)
We have a report with material, location, calender day and with all the stock balances keyfigures. also in the report we have the key figure attributes of material master and material location (like standard cost and base to case conversion). We have defined a formula variable on these attribute key figures with replacement path.
The problem is none of the records are getting populated with the standard cost and base to case conversion.
We are NOT doing any conversion at the report level.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards
Vijay

There could be few possibility:
1. The variable you are inputting for standard cost and base to case conversion may not have any values in the master data.
2. See the master data table for Material and location. Note down those materails and location for which there are values for standard cost and base to case conversion. Now, run the reports for these materials
and location.
Btw, have made standard cost and base to case conversion as nav attributes. Plz make them nav attributes and see.
Thanks...

How to find key figures not created in a Structure.

After using Where Used on a selection variable Z_FISCPER3_M_SV a list of Key Figures appear. I wish to amended these Key Figures as the selection variable used is incorrect. However, I cannot find these Key Figures in the Structure? Does anyone know how to find Key Figures not created in a Structure.

Thanks for such a quick response.
I am assuming the following about the table :
-     Column u201CCALDAYu201D contains a date value for each day the Index is active.
-     Column u201CBIA_USEDu201D contains a value that is iterated for the given day each time the Index is used.
-     Column u201CBIA_NOTPOSSIBLEu201D contains a value representing how many times a query could not access this Index.
-     Column u201CNO_BIAu201D tells if a BWA Index exists at all on any of my BWA Blades
-     Column u201CBIA_TECHINAu201D ????????
-     Column u201CBIA_INAu201D ???????
-     Column u201CDB_FALLBACKu201D ???????
I am not sure if my understanding of the column is correct. Can you tell me they are? The columns with u201C???????u201D mean I have no solid understanding of how to use these columns at all.
Thanks

Using Key figure attribute of a characteristic in a query

Hi All,
I have the following scenario. I have defined a key figure attribute for a characteristic Infoobject. I have included this characteristic infoobject in an Infocube. I now want to use the key figure attribute as a regular key figure when I create a report based on the Infocube. Is it possible and if so how is it possible?
Thanks
Sundar

Hi Saundar,
   There's another way.Set the characteristic with key figure attributes as a data target under your info area. Create a MultiProvider and include your Cube and this characteristic. Here you can set the key figure as your MultiProvider key figure.
   Don't forget to take care of the identification of MultiProvider.
   Hope this helps.

Aaron

What are these Key Figures / Attributes

What are these Key Figures / Attribute? Could some one explain it?
$$PERIODIDCU$$
$$PERIODIDFR$$
$$PERIODIDTO$$
For example, one of it is used in SAP2 model, for Key Figure DEMANDPLANNINGQTY.
It has a calculation of IF("PERIODID" >= "$$PERIODIDCU$$", IF(ISNULL("DEMANDPLANNINGQTY@PERPRODCUST"),"MKTGPROMOTIONFCSTQTY@PERPRODCUST","DEMANDPLANNINGQTY@PERPRODCUST"),"ACTUALSQTY@PERPRODCUST")
Thank you.

$$PERIODIDCU$$ is a call to look up what the current period is based on the system date plus your current period offset configuration.
So the above formula says if the period ID that you are reporting on is greater than equal to the current period in the system (taking into consideration any offsets you may have configured), then do the subsequent logic.
I haven't seen the "FR" and "TO" syntax for period id, but I can only assume they are related to some sort of "from" and "to" range for period id.

Error MSB3323: Unable to find manifest signing certificate in the certificate store.

Problems began when I received the MSDN Final VS 2005 v8.0.50727.42 and uninstalled the RC build which I had worked with without issue and replaced it with the previously mentioned.
After four or so installs/uninstalls I got past the Invalid license data. Reinstall is required. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=162712&SiteID=1
I have tested C++ project builds for managed and unmanaged code and both work without a problem. My C# projects however fail to build, the error I get is:
------ Rebuild All started: Project: D And P, Configuration: Release Any CPU ------
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Microsoft.Common.targets(1718,7): error MSB3323: Unable to find manifest signing certificate in the certificate store.
Done building project "D And P.csproj" -- FAILED.
========== Rebuild All: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 skipped ==========
If anyone has any idea of what a next step is please let me know.

I got the same problem but I was tring to strong name my application. I was able to solve the problem by opening the XXX.csproj file in a text editor (notepad.exe) and remove the following tags from the XML.
<ManifestCertificateThumbprint>...</ManifestCertificateThumbprint>
<ManifestKeyFile>...</ManifestKeyFile>
<GenerateManifests>...</GenerateManifests>
<SignManifests>...</SignManifests>
It seem that someone (another member of my team) was playing with the OneClick stuff, but didn't check in the strong name key files he used. But did check in the project file.
Then when I created the new strong name key file and signed the EXE, something was out-of-sync with the above tags in the probject file and the new key file.
Removing these tags may be a bad thing (someone from MS will need to comment) but it worked for me.

Key figure attribute not displaying in query

Hello experts.
I have a key figure attribute called Credit Limit. It is an attribute of Customer. The key figure is type CURR with 2 decimal places.
When I maintain master data for Customer, I can see the value fine e.g. 2,000.00
When I run a BEx Query the very same value displays as 0,00.
Does anyone have any idea why this could be?
For info we run BW 3.5.
Thank you.

Hi,
1.please ensure that your master data is activated (right click the IObj, Activate Master Data)
2. how do you display this attribute? as attribute of the customer? as Nav? as a formula variable ?
let us know
Olivier.

Key figure flag in the planning layout

Hi,
Can anyone explain the importance of the key figure flag in the planning layout?
Regds
Pavan.

Hi Arun and Zegion,
Thank you for your responses.
Arun, I do not have any aggregates on the cube. I changed the aggregate properties of the Key Figure from SUM to Minimum. this has solved my problem temporarily.
the reason I am saying temporarily because this is a SAP delivered InfoObject. This is for the datasource 0CO_PC_PCP_01. When I read through the documents, it said, SUMMation for Aggregation and Last value for "Exception Aggregation" will display the value of KF as the last value and does not add them up.
Since this wasn't the happening in my query, I changed the Aggregation from SUM to Minimum.
Regards,
S.P

Sun Studio (12,1) is unable to find a supported version of the Netbeans IDE

Hi all,
We're working on upgrading both the hardware and software on our application currently, and part of this involves upgrading our compiler to Sun Studio 12.1. I downloaded
SunStudio12u1-SunOS-SPARC-pkgs-ML.tar.bz2
from the Sun website and we installed it into the following location on our server:
/opt/compiler/sunstudio12.1
I successfully compiled all my code using the compiler, however, when I try to launch the debugger by typing ./sunstudio in the 'bin' directory, I get the following error:
{opt/compiler/sunstudio12.1/bin}./sunstudio
Sun Studio is unable to find a supported version of the NetBeans IDE.
Sun Studio requires a NetBeans IDE version 6.5.1 with NetBeans C/C++ module (cnd
2) enabled.
Sun Studio looks for a valid NetBeans IDE installation in the following order:
1) Location specified with --netbeanshome command line option
2) At /opt/compiler/sunstudio12.1/netbeans
I have seen references to executing 'prepare_system' on forums while I was trying to investigate this, but when our sys admin folks try to execute the command, it does not work (command not found). They've mentioned that they expected a prepare_system script in the directory where we untarred the downloaded sun studio tarfile, but it is not there:

I can see a netbeans directory was created as part of the install, but I'm not sure why sun studio thinks netbeans is not available (afraid my knowledge about netbeans is practically non existent):

Any advice appreciated on how to get the debugger working. Ideally, I'd prefer not to uninstall / reinstall if at all possible as we're about to start system testing our executables, and I think a reinstall would require more unit teting and delays to our project (yikes!). But any input would be appreciated here.
Thanks,
Brendan.

Hi David,
First off - thanks for the response. I do have some follow up questions if you don't mind though:
1. When you say the install is corrupted, do you suspect
- the file I downloaded from the website either was corrupted, or was not the correct file for my platform
- the procedure used to install the software was incorrect
- something else
2. Is there a logfile that the sun studio install creates which would indicate an error during the installation procedure? I'm sure our admins who performed the install would have shouted if an error was logged... but on the offchance that the installation does not 'shout loudly' for some errors, I'd like to see a log of the error. At a minimum, I'd expect it to say why the install failed, and what we need to modify to ensure a successful install next time 'round.
3. I successfully compiled my code using the C compiler from the install. My unit tests also look good... does this suggest that the install was at least a partial success, and would you suspect that my recompiled executables are reliable, despite the fact that I cannot launch the IDE?
4. Today, one of our admins telnetted to our unix server - not via exceed by the way, but he did try the following test:
- set his display env variable (he knew he would not get a display however)
- executed the sunstudio script
He did not get the netbeans error, and the process appeared to be running (as I mentioned, without a display) until he killed it. I've asked if they can repeat the test using an exceed session. I thought there may be something on his $PATH that I did not have - unfortunately this was not the case (although, he may have access as 'root' to something that I require to launch the IDE). My question is, would you expect this behaviour if the install was corrupted?
Let me know what you think.
Thanks,
Brendan.

How to filter Key Figures - not using the GUIDs

An example How to filter Key Figures may look like this:
http://XXX.com:8000/sap/bw/BEx?sap-language=DE&bsplanguage=DE&CMD=LDOC&TEMPLATE_ID=XXX&FILTER_IOBJNM=41F68RV4ZB5VYSARODYU70CAQ&FILTER_VALUE=41F68SAI18DB01DO023IR49QA
The GUIDs consume the space in the URl. Is there a way to work with an alias.
To use the technical name of a Key Figure defined in the Query does not work.

Hi Cherie,
This is exactly the type of problem that I'm currently trying to figure out. I'm trying to following your solution but I'm not clear on how you actually achieved this in you last note. I want to dynamically select actuals/budget column fields based on what period I enter. I thought about creating 12 separate RKF fields for actuals and 12 separate RKF fields for the budget reforecast and outputting these all and then doing some VBA to hide the fields not required based on which period was selected... how is your variable ZFYAPER7 defined and calculated?
Cheers

Sun Studio is unable to find a supported version of the NetBeans IDE at the

I'm following the system install instructions in the Grid Compute Utility guide, Appendix A "Building a Local Development Environment" and am getting stuck on step 4, installing sunstudio. I'm running Solaris 5.10 on x86 and can run netbeans IDE without problem. Here is some info, I'm not sure what other system info is relevant:
bash-3.00# which netbeans
/opt/netbeans-5.5.1/bin/netbeans
bash-3.00# which sunstudio
/usr/bin/sunstudio
bash-3.00# sunstudio
Validating NetBeans IDE at: "/opt/SUNWspro/../netbeans-5.5.1"

Sun Studio requires a NetBeans IDE version 5.5.1 with NetBeans C/C++ Development Pack version 5.5.1
installed. Sun Studio looks for a valid NetBeans IDE installation in the following order:
1) Location specified with --netbeanshome command line option
2) At /opt/netbeans-5.5.1 location, if exists
3) At /opt/SUNWspro/../netbeans-5.5.1 location, if exists
4) At /opt/SUNWspro/../../netbeans-5.5.1 location, if exists
Please run the System Preparation Tool (prepare_system), if available, to set up your environment.
Any help!?

Did you install NetBeans separately or let Sun Studio installer do it? The latter usually results in working configuration.
I think that NetBeans installation simply doesn't have c++ pack; you can install one following usual NetBeans modules installation path and then re-try starting Sun Studio.
Another option is to uninstall NetBeans and re-install Sun Studio using its installer, which should set up NetBeans properly.

I have searched forums and Some of them told that if external service operation and message name are not matching then this kind of error occurs.i have changed the alias name in routings>parameter page to my message name. But still it is not working.
Thanks and advance,
Nirav

Thanks.
I hv used the userid PS in the node definition page of the anonymous node. Because previously I was getting the error that "Username is not defined in the database."
What you mean is
1) Should I removed the userid PS from the node definition page of the anonymous node ?
2) The external Alias name in the routing parameter page is the same as the component interface and version v1 is added there as a suffix. I hv changed the external Alias name to my request and response message name. Am i doing right ? If I'm doing wrong then what should be the external alias name.
Thanks,
