Unable to Restrict Navigational Attribute in Query Designer

Hi BI Experts,
I had a Requirement to restrict on navigational attribute.......
i have checked in every levels such that
1.at info object level ....checked  type as navigational
2.at info cube level checked the navigational on.
still iam unable to restrict on navigational attribute................in the context menu its giving the options cut, remove and where used list .........its not giving option to restrict...........
its very urgent ...........please give any suggestions how to restrict on navigational attr

Dear Ram,
Dont expand the InfoObject and see the Attributes ( They r Dis Attrs )
Just expand the Dimension --- Nav Attrs are available  ?
Dont put them in Filter pane..( if available )
Drop them under Rows.
But restrict them under Default values ( By clicking on Filter pane ).
Regards,
Ram.

  • Can we perform restriction on attribute in query designer?

    Hi
    can we perform restriction on attribute in query designer? My scenario is to restrict on an attribute..Could any one help me out i this issue?
    Regards,
    Suman

    Hi,
    Restriction can be done only for navigational attribute.U cannot do restriction for display attirbute.
    if it is a display attribute u want to restrict -make it navigational for that infoobject.
    Also the attribute must be 'checked on' as navigational in the infoprovider as well on which the query is built.
    hope it helps.

  • Unable to Create Instance of Essbase Query Designer

    followed by Unable to Initialize Query Designer.Essbase v6.1Excel 97 sp2 iWin NT 4 sp5We are running into this error when trying to launch query designer."Unable to Create Instance of Essbase Query Designer"Query designer is checked in the addins before we try running it. We receive the messages. If we check the addins after we get the messages, query designer is unchecked.The Essbase addin works fine with no issues. Any thoughts on what this might be or how to troubleshoot it?Thanks.Mike

    Update: is it possible that security rights to the Essbase directory would affect the Query Designer? On a machine that it works on, I've noticed that the "xla" file updates each time it is accessed.

  • Missing attribute in query designer

    Hi,
    I need some reasonable explanation for an odd behaviour. Here is the scenario: a multiprovider, say X, has an infobject with some attributes where two of them are navigational and authorization relevant, but not for multiprovider X which had their checking disabled on RSSM. In Query Designer a query built on infoprovider X does not show these attributes in the "Attritbutes tree" below the infobject unless an specific authorization be given to the query owner with value * for the authorization object. Where is the trick if multiprovider X is told not to check these authorization relevant attributes? On the other hand, authorization relevant infobjetcs shouldn't be a matter of data selection? Why are they sensitive in query designer if their check are disebled for that multiprovider?
    Does anyone know how to explain this?
    By the way, I'm using BW 3.5.
    Thanks,
    Fernando

    Hi, Troy
    Thanks a lot for your reply. I opened an OSS to SAP to answer why even the infoprovider having the object authorization unchecked, in design time with Query Designer the atribute was hidden. The consultant said that checking does matter only in runtime. In design time the user has to be fully authorized for the (authorization relevant) attribute to be seen, regardless whether the authorization object is or is not flagged on the infoprovider (transaction RSSM).
    Below is a reply from Erick from another BI forum for this same issue that solved my problem. It may be helpful to you too.
    "<i>Hi,
    I'm working on a BW 3.5 project and I've encountered the same issue.
    The issue occurs if :
    - an infoobject is authorisation relevant
    - this infoobject is attribute of a master data
    - the corresponding authorisation object is flagged in an infoprovider
    - role included this object restrict value
    Solution:
    you have to create a new authorisation object link to your infoobject.
    This new authorisation object has to flagged in NO infoprovider.
    Then create a role including this authorisation object and affect * as value.
    As a conclusion, you can build an additional role including each authorisation object (with *) linked to each infoobject authorisation relevant (which are master data atribute).
    Hope this help you,
    Regards,
    Erick</i>"

  • Unable to see the variable in Query Designer

    Hello Experts,
    I am running one report and it is showing me 0calday variable selection screen at run time. I am unable to see this Variable on my Query designer but when I am opening query properties its showing me in this.
    Kindly let me know where is this Variable using in my query designer ?
    Thanks,
    Anoop

    Hi Anoop,
    The variable is probably being used to restrict a key figure.
    Go to the key figures,
    Display the technical names
    Check the key figures for which the technical name is not appearing even though the key figure is not a formula.
    Here you will see one of the key figure being restricted by a variable for 0calday
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,

  • Navigational attribute and query result

    gurus
    i have business organization under which i have various materials. my data flows through ods into cube. and in the cube i have my business org and materials ids
    now the problem is some of my materials have changed Buss ORG like
    Mat 1    used to be under   Buss Org 1
    now
    Mat 1    is under    Buss org 2
    and when the users run the report they should be able to see mat 1 under buss org 2. (even the history should go under buss org 2)
    and now i have to change my design
    options i have
    1) since my data is available in ods if i propose buss org as a navigation attribut and create a new cube without buss org in the cube will it work
    2) i will go with the existing design and load the new data which mean i have two sets of data
    one with material 1 under buss org 1 (which is history) and
    material 1 under buss org 2 (from now)
    now if i propose buss org as navigation attribute and use this in query will i see both history data and new data under Buss org 2.
    please do reply
    thanks

    thanks for a very useful information bhanu
    lets say my records in cube are
    Mid         Bussorg         Qty
    10048        GMI             100
    10048        GMR             200
    now initially 10048 was under busorg GMI but its now under GMR.
    if i take BusOrg char into my query i will get two BusOrg for the same Mat
    i want even my history to be moved under new BusOrg
    its like when i run the report it should give me
    10048      GMR              300
    this is how i want the result
    if i propose BusOrg as navigational attr and take that into query will i get the same result?

  • "Error determining attribute" after adding navigational attribute to query

    Hello all,
    We are getting a "Error Error determining attribute, Abort System error in program SAPLRRK0 and form RSRDR;SRRK0f30-01-" error message when running a query after adding a navigational attribute. We tried adding the attribute of the characteristic directly in the query and this works ok. But when we try using the navigational attribute we get the error. We would like to use the navigational attribute so we can filter based on this attribute.
    We've searched for notes regarding this problem and haven't found any. Any suggestions?
    Thanks, Ron

    hi,
    Please check if  number of the fields after adding the Navigationl attribute the should not cross 50.
    Check the RSRV test for the master data whose navigational attribute u r trying to add.
    Thanks

  • How to copy restricted key figures in query designer ?

    hi,
    i have created a query in query designer (BI 7.0).
    How can i copy existing restricted key figures ? i can't find anything. i always have to create a new one, and then i have to do all the things like 'details of selection' etc.... manually. that CANNOT be, there MUST be a way to copy those key figures.
    any ideas ?
    best regards, Martin

    Hi Martin,
    Restricted key figures can be stored on the infoprovider basis . For which right click on the key figure (left hand side pane ), Select the necessary key figure and assign the restriction through characteristics combination, and give it a restriction and save it . Next tiem when you create query on the same info provider it should appear in the left hand side as readymade reusable piece .
    Hope that helps.

  • How to merge text attribute in query designer

    Hi,
    please does anybody know, how to merge, let say, two text attributes of one characteristic into one long text? I know, that it is possible with method, which is finally called in the Web Application Designer. But I need to proceed this on the query level. It means, when I display result of query in query designer, I need to have two attributes merged into one long text. Is there some exit, method or something else, where can I do it?
    Thank you very much
    Best Regards
    J.

    Hello,
    I don't think so we have string concatenation at query level.
    You have to create / use existing info object and use string functions to achieve this.
    Might be you could wait for some time to get more replies.

  • Unable to add Navigational attribute in Qery

    Hi All,
    Am a beginner in Bex queries. I need to add a Navigational Attribute, in a BEx Query.  I did the following:
    1.  Turned ON the Navigational attribute in the Infocube.
    2. As my query is on Multiprovider, i had mapped the specific field as well.
    3. In the query, the 'Attribute' folder is added to the particular charcteristic in the infoprovider panel. When i try to drag to the navigational attribute into the 'Free Characrteristics', its not working out.
    Am not sure about the procedure for adding the Navigational attribute into the Query. please help me in resolving this.
    Thanks,
    Chitra.

    Hi Chitra,
    Check if the navigational attribute is already there in Rows or filters area. it can't be in 2 places at a time.
    First make sure the Attribute is navigational enabled at info object level.
    Enable the object as navigational at IC level.
    as you are using MP... you need to enable the navigational attribute in the MP and identify the object then you will be able to use the navigational attribute in the query.

  • Reg Navigational Attribute in Query

    HI
    Iam having a strange problem,I wasnt to include a channel levl that is a navigable attribute to customer in my query.The query is reporting from an multi provider.I find that the navigable attribute is checked in my Infocube ,but its not appearing in my query to drag it in the columns.
    Is it because it is reporting from Multiprovider should it be generated.If so how?
    Thanks
    BR

    You need to make it as navigational in the multiprovider definition too. Navigational attr of underlying cubes are not automatically included in the multi. You need to manually include them as you do for the chars and KF's

  • Unable to view Navigational Attributes in ODS

    Dear All,
    We have enabled Material Group as Navigational Attribute in Material. Material has been included in ODS as Key Field. In ODS also Material Group is switched as Nav Attr. Now when I check in Reports I am getting # for all Material Groups. I checked in ListCube. Here also I am getting # values.
    I did master Data Activation and also did Attribute change run. Where as I am able to view values for Material Group in Material Master Data.
    Regards
    Ravi Y

    Hi Ravi,
    You could check if the X/Y table of material group are correct.
    Do RSRV  combination check on the info object material and material group. Run all the tests...espeially the consistency of X and Y tables..
    Also, you could probably check if this is some authorization issue... that you dont have authorization to view contents of material group...(may not be the case, but worth a check )...
    Sounds strange though, if all is ok and u still dont see material group. (and sometimes it cud be a refresh issue as lalit suggests....., if it has to get wierd )
    Hope it helps,
