Unable to save calculated and restricted keyfigures

hi all,
I am facing a strange problem where in , even though i try to save a calculated or a restricted key figure with a unique name the system throws a warning saying "the name already exists" and wouldn't allow me to save the CKF or RKF.
Any pointers to slove this problem would be appreciated.

Hi
Yes , If you create the restricted or calculated keyfigure and save it with the Technical name
then you cannot use it again though you try to create in other info provider.
You can create the RKF or CKF with the Technical name only once, You cannot use the same
Technical name again to create RKF or CKF on other data providers.

Bringing in Calculated and Restricted Key Figs

How do I bring in calculated and restricted key figs from one query to another in BI 7.0? When I created these key figs it said that they were reusable.
Thanks

Hello Atif
When you make CKF or RKF at query level which means right hand side in your column these are local to your query and not useable.....but when you make them global by defining in left hand side they can be reused in other query....so when u willl create another query...these CKF and RKF will be available...just drag and drop them they will work

Unable to save paragraph and character styles

I noticed an issue popping up for me in CS6 yesterday. I thought it was originally because of Fireworks saved PSD but an effort re-create the file from scratch in PS I'm coming across the same issue. In PS when I have a large amount of text layers and create a paragraph or character style, when I have ANY layer/group in my document locked I'm unable to save any paragraph or layer styles. Regardless of the layer or group being locked and regardless of what layer is highlighted I'm unable to save styles / any settings / name etc. The error I get for character styles for example is:
"Could not complete the Modify Named Character Style command because a specified layer is locked."
I did notice that in the Fireworks created PSD that without any layer even being locked I'd still get an error. It may be that this other document got some bad mojo from the Fireworks PSD. When creating a test doc and only creating a couple text layers and a bunch of empty groups and layers I'm unable to reproduce this. It appears to happen to me when I have a slew of text layers.
Has anyone else experienced this and figured out a more solid workaround?

If you want to add the styles to an already created document:
1) Create you Character style containing only the character color
2) Find and Replace, searching for text with red color and replace formatting with the new character style. (Don't type anything in the text part of the Find and Replace dialog)
3) Create and apply your paragraph style to all. The text with the Character Style applied will stay red.

Unable to save from and to an external hard drive

Just started to use Mac.
I work with an external hard drive and when I edit files like Microsoft PowerPoint, I cannot save at all as I do not have the permission to do so.

Most likely your external drive has a NTFS file system.
You can check this by option+clicking on the hard drive icon, selecting "get info" and looking on the information for the Format field. If it says NTFS then that's your case. If not then there is some problem with the application.
In case the hard drive is NTFS format then you can save your work on your computer only, you won't be able to save, delete or modify anything on that hard drive unless you format it with a FAT or HFS filesystem. To do this backup the data of your external drive, go to Aplications, Utilities, Disk Utility, select the drive on the list, click on the erase tab, select FAT on the Format drop down list and click erase. Copy all your files back to your external drive and you will be able to save, edit and delete files on it.
In case that the drive is not the problem (FAT, FAT32 or HFS filesystem) then go to Applications, Utilities, Disk Utility, select the drive and click on Repair Disk Permissions. That should solve most problems.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Filter and restricted keyfigure

Hi gurus,
Can anybody clear my doubt? filters are used for restricting some records and restricted key figures are also used for same thing? can any body explain me clearly , what and where is use of filters and key figures?
i promise to reward points.
thanks
bw bw

Hello,
Let me explain you .
Filters:
Filters represent the conditions that message types and BAPIs have to satisfy so that they can be distributed by ALE outbound processing.
Restricted Key Figure:
If You have defined a restricted key figure for reuse.
You can now use this restricted key figure in all queries based on this InfoProvider by moving the key figure into the rows or columns of the query using Drag&Drop.
The restricted key figure is not an actual element in this query, but a placeholder referenced to the restricted key figure in the InfoProvider.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks

Unable to Save RFQ and PO.

Hi Experts,
I am facing a very serious problem in saving the documents.
Whenever I create PO or RFQ and Save it.
It gets Saved and with the document number.
But if I go to document display in ME23N or ME43 and the enter the document number created. the system gives the message.
"Document XXX does not exist"
Whats the reason this is happening.
Please give me your valuable inputs.
Thanks and warm regards,
Sheetal Hirde

Hi
Some times the Puircahse orders are nit updated in the data base tables as the updates are terminated , before Updating
goto SM13, there you can see the updates terminated & their logs.Click on one of the Updates terminated with transaction ME21N.
Double click on the line , you will see alist of Function modules, click on the function module in red, here click on the log to see more details on the reason for update termination.
in the dump anlysis you can see the reason for dump.
Act as per the dump anlaysis. usuall reasons for the dump is any new changes to the ME21N program or number range error .
Check the number ranges for the Document types of the PO & Table EKKO.
The last number of the Document type in EKKO & the Current number of the Document type in number range customizing should be equal.
Check the same. If they are not equal, make them equal & try creating again.
If the problem is not due to Number ranges. Please take help of ABAPER for Dump Anlaysis
Thanks & Regards

Copy Calculated/Restricted Keyfigures between DIFFERENT InfoProviders

Hello Gurus,
I am struggling with a problem and there doesn't seem to be any clear help on the web. But maybe you can help me.
How can one copy a restricted keyfigure from one infoprovider to another different one when all the infoobjects used for the restricted keyfigure are present in both the providers? (multicubes)
And of course TCode RSZC doesn't work with non-identical infoproviders.
Thank you very much for your help!
Marius

Thank you Cornelia, but this method was clear for me from the begining... it is not an option though... there are about 30 InfoObjects (and another 40 Multiproviders) so there has to be another way. And there is a way because there is an article on BWExpertOnline which describes an easy method (unfortunately this answer is not worth a thousand dollar subscription for me):
Quick Tip
Copy Queries Between InfoProviders Painlessly
by Joerg Boeke, syskoplan AG BEx Analyzer, InfoCubes, Performance, Query, Debug Mode, InfoProvider
Perhaps, like me, you have spent countless hours successfully creating great queries that contain complex structures for a particular InfoProvider. Then, down the road, you find you need this exact query again for another InfoProvider, but the new InfoProvider has a single characteristic that differs from the one that was the object of your original query. Using SAP transaction RSZC (copying queries between InfoCubes), query definitions can be copied only for use on InfoProviders with the same characteristics. If the key bfigures and characteristics of the new InfoProvider do not match the original 100 percent, this standard method fails.
So close and yet so far, right? Ill show you a way, however, to copy the query definition from one InfoProvider to another, regardless of the characteristics of the new target. This method works with both BW 2.x and 3.x installations.

The above mentioned method handles the copying of queries but when we copy the queries we copy the restricted/calculated keyfigures also.
Does anybody know this painless method?
I thank you in advance.

Effect of Restricted Keyfigure & calculated keyfigure in query performance

Hi,
What is the effect of Restricted Keyfigure & calculated keyfigure in Query Performance?
Regards
Anil

As compared to formulas that are evaluated during query execution, calculated key figures are pre-calculated and their definitions are stored in the metadata repository for reuse in queries. The incorporation of business metrics and key performance indicators as calculated key figures, such as gross profit and return on investment (which are frequently used, widely understood, and rarely changed), improve query performance and ensure that calculated key figures are reported consistently by different users. Note that this approach improves query runtime performance but slows InfoCube or ODS object update time. As a rule of thumb, if multiple and frequently used queries use the same formula to compute calculated fields, use calculated key figures instead of formulas.
RKFs result in additional database processing and complexity in retrieving the query result and therefore should be avoided when possible.
other than performance, there might be other considerations to determine which one of the options should be used.
If the RKF's are query specific and not used anywhere in majority of other queries, I would go for structure selections. And from my personal exp, sometimes all the developers end up with so many RKF and CKF's that you get easily lost in the web and not to mention the duplication.
if the same structure is needed widely across most of the queries, that might be a good idea to have global structure to be available across the provider, which might considerable cut down the development time.

I am not sure whats going wrong, but I am unable to save variants.
Please help.
Thanks,

The F4 will display you the existing layouts only. So you need to save the layout first & then execute the report again & check if you are getting F4 values for that field.
The Layout needs to get stored with variant.

Microsoft Office 2004 (Word) unable to save files
I have been running Office 2004 on my Intel iMac with Snow Leopard for some time and all of a sudden I cannot save a document. Word just stopped responding and I have to force quit. I can open Word and create a new document but I cannot save it. I reinstalled Word but that didn’t help. Then went to the Internet and found at least one other Mac user having the same problem which it suggests is caused by a recent Mac Security Update:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2004-macword/word-2004-wil l-not-open-or-save-documents/b04eb870-9b0d-4f3b-bb47-b122301e36f6
So I check for a new Mac Security Update and sure enough there was one. I downloaded it and now Word seems to be working, as it should. I can both open and save files. The only problem remaining is that when I open Word I get the following error message “An unexpected error occurred while trying to load the Microsoft Framework library”. I contacted Apple but they were unable to help.
How can I get rid of this error message?

Look, I realize you might have to get your machine working, so this is how you revert back.
Restore proceedure to pre-Security Update 2012-001 v 1.0 & v 1.1
#1 Backup your personal data off the machine.
Backup files off the computer (not to TimeMachine). If you don't have a external drive, get one and connect to the USB/Firewire port and simply drag and drop copy your User folder to the external drive, it will copy all your files. It's best to have two backups of your data off the machine when trying to restore.
Disconnect all drives now to prevent any mistakes from occuring.
#2 Reinstall OS X 10.6 from disk
Get out your 10.6 install disk and make sure it's clean and polished (very soft cloth and a bit of rubbing alcohol, no scratches) If your disk is borked, you'll have to order a new one from Apple with your serial number.
Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk (wired keyboard, internal optical drive), use Disk Utility First Aid to >Repair Disk of your internal drive (do not format or erase!!), Quit DU and simply re-install 10.6.
Note: Simply reinstalling 10.6 version from disk (without erasing the drive) only replaces 10.6.8 with 10.6.x and bundled Apple programs, won't touch your files (backup anyway) or most programs, unless they installed a kext file into OS X itself. (only a few on average do this)
#3 Update to 10.6.8 without Security Update 2012-001 v1.0 or v1.1
Reboot and log in, update to 10.6.8 via Software Update, but EXCLUDE THE Security Update 2012-001 by checkinig the details and unchecking the blue check box.
#4 Reinstall any non-working third party programs
When you reboot, make sure to reinstall any programs that require kext files installed into OS X, you'll know, they won't work when you launch them or hang for some reason as they are missing the part they installed into OS X.
If for some freakish reason you get gray screen at any time when booting (possible it might occur when you reinstall older programs), hold the shift key down while booting (Safe Mode, disables kext files) and update your installed third party software so it's compatible with 10.6.8.

I am puzzled by iMac(Intel ?). I am running an iMac 24 and use Mac:Office 2008. After having downloaded my Os X LION upgrade, I am suddenly unable to SAVE (and thus alter) my Excel quotations. This is a major issue for a salesman. Can anybody help me

I am puzzled by the meaning of iMac (Intel) as I use an iMac 2 period. I am running Mac : Office 2004 and do all my quotations in Excel. After upgrading to OS X LION, I am suddenly unable to SAVE my spreadsheets. As a salesman whose quotations need frequent updating, my situation is perilous to say the least. Can anyone help me ?

Office for Mac 2004 is NOT compatible with Lion. It must be upgraded to Office for Mac 2008 or 2011, once you have upgraded the files will be accessable. Office for Mac 2004 is written for old PPC (Power PC) based machines. Beginning with Lion support for PPC based apps has been dropped.

My Ipod5 wont turn on and it has been telling me for the past 15 weeks that it is unable to save anything to the cloud. Is there any way that I can get my photos back?

So basically, my Ipod5 was working normally earlier today but then the screen just randomly went black and I cant get it to turn on. The problem though, is that for the past 15 weeks, it has been telling me that it is unable to save anything to the cloud due to a lack of space. I don't really care about anything other than my pictures and I'm wondering if there is any way for me to get them back even if my Ipod doesn't work?

Likely not but
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Difference between Restricted KeyFigure and Filter

Hi Experts
Could anyone tell me what is the main difference between Restricted Keyfigure and Filter.. Normally in which scenario we will use Restricted Key Figure and when we will use in Filter...
Thanks
Ajay

Restricted Key Figure
In your sales analysis report you have customer,material,sales qty,value for an year..You want to show current month sales one more column.You will create a restritcted key figure based on the current month and show it in the report.You will end up with a report
customer,material,sales qty,value,Current Month Qty,Current Month value.
Filters
The above report you want to show only the current month sales.You will create a filter where the 0CALMONTH = current Month with customer,material,sales qtym,value for the current month only.
