Units/currencies

hi friends,
how to handle units and currencies info in bpc7nw? I heard with single account dimension, with properties(units/currencies)? what is best practice?
how frequently full optimization and lite optimization are used in case daily loads are happending from bi to bpc7nw?
thanks,

Raju,
units can be either handled as different members in the account Dimension or as a separate Dimension containing your various units, depending on how you want to use them in your application and reports.
For currencies- you need a separate supporting application RATE .. go through APshell for further peek into the actual application.

I do not think there is any difference between lite and full optimization on the NW side (probably the SAP TEAM can confirm/deny the same and throw some light on this).
All full/lite optimization does is puts an end to the ongoing loading into a single request and creates a new request for future loads....so it depends on your application needs as to when/ how often you want to put a logical end to this loading and do the optimization, so that the cube and application is easy for you to manage.
hope this helps..

How to Hide Unit Currency in Query Display

Hi to all,
I have created Query for Receivables .
wheher i am using 0FI_AR_4 as datasource and 0CREDIT_LC as Credit amount in local currency and using 0CREDIT_LC at query level as Key Figure.
Now when i display Query in RSRT or PORTAL , 0CREDIT_LC is display with Unit Currency.
example      ;
                             2100 INR              3500 INR         2300 INR
I need that only value should display not Unit Currency at query level.
example      ;
                             2100             3500         2300
Please can nay one help we with that.
I shall be thankful to you for this.

Pavneet Rana

Hi,
Please create a calculated key figure and use the function NODIM
so you have will have a new calculated key figure = NODIM ( cube key figures)
Note - this will be fixed for this query.. you will not be able to change it at the report level... units can only be seen if you remove the NODIM

Problem with field KONWA-Rate Unit(Currency or Percentage) of table KONP

Hi Gurus,
I m facing problem with field 'KONWA -Rate Unit (Currency or Percentage)' of table KONP. This field is showing Currency and '%' both in table KONP. For some materials its showing currency value and for some its showing '%'. Due to which its creating load problems. My question is how this '%' is coming (means is there any calculation behind that or something else) in table KONP and how can I identify this.
I am sure u will have the answer for this question so Thanks in advance.

Hi,
take the following example: you sell liquor to customers; in your country, when you sell liquor your company is entitled to pay customs and excise fees to governamental authorities.
These excises and duties are a percentage of the retail price. You'll then create such a condition record with this rate so that you calculation schema will post the correct value during the processing of billing documents...
hope this shed light
Olivier.

Can i create IC without unit/currency dimention?

i am not having the key figures of type amount and quantity, in that case can i create the infocube with out creating unit/currency dimention.

Hi,
These 3 r fixed dimensions - predeined by SAP. So you need not create any dimension for unit or time or datapackage. Just go to dimensions screen of ur iC. You ll find these 3 at the biottom of the screen as fixed dimensions

Does anyone an Excel macro to display units/currencies next to its KF?

Hello,
I need to change my BEX-display in the following way:
Current:
Order#           Amount (loc.Currcy)            Quanitity (BUOM)
12345             1000 EUR                             5 ST
My idea is to have it as follows:
Order#           Amount            Loc.Currcy         Quanitity        Base Unit Of Measure
12345             1000                EUR                     5                   ST
Ok, I know how to supress the units/currencies for the Key Figures. I also was thinking of using the units/currencies as characteristics but then they would be display right to Order #. I want to have it in a new column right of its associated Key Figure.
I think I can do this with an Excel macro. As I'm not an Expert here, I'm wondering if someone already had done the effort to code such a macro and would be willing to share it with us.
Thanks

Use the "Index Array" primitave under the "Array" sub-palette of the functions Palette. The array wires into the top input, and the index of the element you want wires into the bottom input - then the element of the array at the index is returned out the right hand side of the primative (I've attached an example VI).
cheers,
Christopher

Input Ready Query without unit / currency

HI ,
In my input ready query, it is enabling along with the unit / currency. How to show the input ready query without unit / currency
if I use NODIM() function, it is not possible to creating input ready field.
Please suggest me is there any way to create input ready field without unit / currency.
Thanks and regards
Rajesh

HI Hyma,
1.use the currency / unit field in the filter or drilldown
In this case if the query may have more than 2 fileds which are input ready having differnt unit/ currency, for Ex: Amount = Quantity * Rate
Currency for amount and Rate is INR and for Quantity is Tonnes. if I restrict both INR & TO in filter, in the system it will store both currency and unit for amount, rate and quantity.
HI Andrey,
2. 0CURRENCY or any currency IO that you use in ROWS of query
In this case also, if I use only one type of currency/unit as input ready then it is fine,, but in my query I want to use more then one currency/unit at a time.(As above Example)
Please suggest me how to solve this...
Regards
Rajesh

Suppress units & currency (e.g; EUR, HL, ...)

hi,
is it possible to hide in my results the currencies or units, for example EUR, USD, HL, ...
I already tried switching on and off the option "hide repeated key values" but this didn't help...
thanks a lot!
jorre

Joris,
to my knowledge, we have only these 2 options. one will show without dimentions. if we have several currency or units, it's not useful.
as you said one more option in Query Properties. i have used that option in BW3.1 it worked for me. i didn't work on BW3.5. if these 2 won't work... check with SAP. create a customer message.
Update the thread with your findings.
All the best.

How to display Currency Unit beside value in BEx Report?

I have 2 separate Amounts in the columns area. Their respective currencies exist as Characteristics in Unit dimension. How do I display the amount along with currency unit beside it?
As of now my Report looks like....

2000                     3000
I would like to display it as......

Hi Sebastian,
Yes it can be possible to get the currency unit along with currency in ur report.
To do this, first of all u need to have the currency unit in ur flat file or else in ur data.
If u have so, here are the steps to do that.
1.Double click ur amount info object under 'currency/unit of measure tab' , in the unit/currency field just give as 0currency.
2.And then activate ur info object.
3.In Transformations u will find another field '0currency', just map it to the amount field.
and then do the process as usally loading data to target, and the execute the report.
u will be able to see currency unit filed also.
hope this helps u.
Thanks,
Sai Chand.

Currency & Unit creation in Cube

Hi,
Could anyone guide me the Steps for using of currency field from start to end in BI 7.0.
Am trying with a small example where keyfields contains a currency or unit infobject.
a) created infoobject with Quantity field as Unit and Price as Currency
b) Created a Cube, with Unit & Currency dimensions
c) Created a Infosource, able to see Unit & Currency fields
d) Created transformations by using cube, able to map fields automatically
e) Am unable to proceed from DTP onwards.
I request you to please provide the steps of currency creation.
-Naveen

Its not a standard datasource.
I created my own Characteristics & KeyFigures Infobjects for practice. In that i added Amount as Currency and Quantity as Unit key figures.
I want to generate a simple report with creating Cube by Currency & Unit fields.
Could you please provide Step by Step for these in BI 7.0.

Cannot add Currency Unit in CUbe

Hello,
I am trying to add a currency unit (ZCURR1) which I created to my Unit Dimension in my InfoCube. This unit is created under the 0UNINOTASSIGNED InfoArea. The problem is I dont see any of the units (currency units etc) under the 0UNINOTASSIGNED InfoArea when I wish to drag & drop the same. Do I need to make any changes?
Interestingly, I see 0CURRENCY already existing in my UNIT dimension of the InfoCube. But when I go to the Transformation Screen, I do not see it. Why is it so?
POINTS WILL BE AWARDED!!
Regards,
SD

Hai Sebastian,
If you have created ZCURR1 as an attribute you cannot drag and drop in to the unit dimension.If its been created as navigational attribute you can see under the navigational attribute folder,once the master key charcterstic is dragged in to the dimension.while executing a query you can see ZCURR1 in the attributes folder,irrespective of display or navigational attribute.
You can see the 0currency in the unit because you must have got a key figure which is a type CURRENCY and which is not fixed currency.

Report with physical unit and Currency Keyfigures in 1 column

Hi Community,
I have the requirement to preoduce a query with 1 column that displays 2 keyfigures:
1. e.g. Overall money spend (Currency)
2. e.g. weight of product (Physical unit)
the report/query is not a cell definition but a generic one based on different characteristics:
REGION - COUNTRY - LOCATION - "keyfigure" -"unit/currency"
ASIA - SINGAPORE - SINGAPORE EAST - 1000 - t
ASIA- SINGAPORE - SINGAPORE WEST - 1000 - $
Each data record will either be a unit or a currency and no currency conversion needed.
1. I thought of introducing a characteristic with textual information and a calculated keyfigure (value of unit + value of currency) which will result in the correct value.
2. I thought of creating a custom unit for the currency so I could solve the problem by changing currency to a unit.
What other solutions can you suggest - can you give me your opinions?
Regards,
Andreas

How to calculate the unit for RATE?

Hey All,
I am not sure if there is something standard for this or not.
I am calculating the 'Rate' by using 'Value/Amount' and 'Quantity' as follows -
Rate == Value / Quantity
I need to calculate the unit for the rate as below -
Rate unit == Value unit (Currency) / Quantity unit (Base_uom)
(for example -
if value is 1000 USD and quantity is 10 TO then Rate should come out as 100 USD / TO)
Could anyone please suggest how to calculate the unit in this case?
Many Thanks!

Referencing currency fields in a view

When trying to unhide currency fields of a custom extractor in RSA6, we get an error saying 'OLTP source still has errors.' I believe the errors are associated with the unit/currency referencing of these key figures. How did you reference the key figure fields the currency/units?

Hi Khanh-Dong Vo,
Fields CURR1, CURR2 and CURR3 might not have been appended into your extract structure. That should be done if the field has a reference field from a table like T882G.
After doing this these fields obviously would appear into the RSA6 list too, there we need to check these CURR1, CURR2 and CURR3 fields for the property "Field only known in Exit".
This would definitely solve your problem.

ERROR: Units field CURR1 for field HSL of DataSource 3FI_SL_Z3_SI is hidden

Hi all,
This is the error msg i'm getting when trying to activate the extract structure for FI-SL. Did anybody come across it? And how to unhide the HSL,ASL etc fields .. four of my fields got locked and i have no clue what made it hide. these were the fields that werent showing up in the extract structure that was generated, so i appended the extract structure with these fields .. then it asked for a reference table and structure which i provided, but wasnt able to activate it. so i deleted all the fields in the append and the datasource all together. Now when trying to assign a datasource to the ledger ... this is the msg i'm getting for all the fields i tried to include in the append. How can i get rid of the msg(unhide) the fields and what is the right way of appending fields(currency, unit) to the extract structure?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
Mav.

You must send the unit/currency with a quantity/amount field, so
- they must be defined in the structure/view behind your customer datasource,
- they must be hidden or not together,
Change the hidden flag via RSA6 or RSO2.

Raymond
