Use of OLAP variable 0FYTCFP in extracting GL transaction figures

Hi
We load data to cube 0FIGL_C01.
We use the OLAP variable to ensure that we are extracting for the current fiscal year to date, as a full load, with a deletion of overlapping requests in the process chain.
Our fiscal year ends 30 June. My question is around special periods and opening of the new fiscal year while posting is still allowed into the old year e.g. on 15 July both the old year and the new year are open as the year end processing is still underway, and special periods 13-16 might also be in use.
Do I have to wait until the user close the year (a manual step) to then do a "final" run for the year, with the periods specified manually, or is there a way to automate this?
thanks and regards, Lara

Hi Sander
Thanks for the response.
That;s what I have been doing (run manually after the period is closed). It is not ideal, in my mind, because it (1) relies on someone remembering to do it and (2) has to be done repetitively i.e.at least daily until the "old" period is closed, otherwise reports based on the provider will not be accurate. Again, not hard to do, just a pain when everything else is automated.
This particular DataSource is not delta enabled, otherwise I would have used the delta loads.
regards, Lara

OLAP Variable with user exit for Infopackage Selection 0fiscper

Hi Frds/ Guru's ,
I have a requirement to use a OLAP Variable for Fiscal year period 0fiscper(Characteristic ) in the Infopackage Selection. . I need to extract the data for Previous Year and Current Year , that is to be automatically selected with a OLAP Variable . The standard one's provided by SAP are not satisfying my requirement,as they are getting populated with SAP Exit and I am not getting the ranges .I am planning to create a variable and use the processing type as Customer Exit and Populate it with ABAP code in respective Enhancement RSR00001.
Even Can I create a ABAP Routine ? Please suggest me which is better to do in respect to performance of dataload , will be really glad if anyone can provide some code for doing this as u might have faced the situation sometime .
I have checked with all the threads available , could get some idea but will be really thankful if u gimme some hints in writing the code , at Exit level and routine level .
Thanks,
Krish

OLAP Variable in InfoPackage / DTP

Hi Experts,
I created an ETL process in our Dev instance, and in my InfoPackage and DTP was able to use an OLAP variable when filtering on 0FISCPER (eg 0I_CUFYE or 0FYTCFP).
When I tried it in Prod, the loads failed because it couldn't find these variables. I am looking to find these types of objects so I can either transport them (ideally) or activate them directly in Prd (if I have too!), but cannot find out where they exist. Help!
Thanks,
Darryl

Found it finally!

Creation of OLAP Variable for Master data

Dear BW Experts,
How to Create OLAP Variable for Master data in SAP BW? What is the use of OLAP Variable?

The entry column Type (Variable) on the Select Data tabpage indicates a variable time frame in which the data should be requested. The variables are not replaced by concrete values until a request is made. There are eight options:
Variable Data request Description
0
 Yesterday
 (12am 12am)
1
 Last week
 (Monday-Sunday)
2
 Last month
 (1. (First day - last day of previous month)
3
 Last quarter
 (1. (First day - last day of previous quarter)
4
 Last year
 (01. (January 1 Dec 31 of previous year)
5
 User time selection
 See below
6
 ABAP routines
 See below
7
 OLAP variables
 See below
Time selections with the help of the variables 0 to 4.
The variables 0-4 only refer to date fields of the data type DATS.
User time selection
Type 5 gives you a free selection of all fields.
If you select this variable for a field, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type, an additional dialog box appears. In this dialog box you can freely limit the values of the fields and determine the next period value and the number of periods until a repetition.
Variables are placeholders for values and are not replaced by concrete values until a data request is made. You can also use a Variable for selections when requesting data for an InfoObject, if you choose type 7, confirm the selection, and then choose Detail for Type.

OLAP variable in ABAP Routine.

In data selection of Infopackage, I have used a OLAP variable. Is it possible to access the routine for OLAP variable in a ABAP routine?? How to proceed for the same???

Hi,
There are function modules for SAP variables.
- RSVAREXIT_variablename
- RREX_VARIABLE_EXIT (for variables to be processed see include LRREXTOP).
Customized variables with exit can be accessed by FM EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001.
If you are able to transfer mandatory parameters, just implement call of required FM
Into report. If not, you have to copy and adopt coding desired from the FMs.
Hope this helps

ABAP code for custom OLAP variables

Hi experts,
We have a custom variant set as customer exit that I have just added to an infopackge for the data selection of 0FISCYEAR infoobject via 7-OLAP Variant. When I click on the magnifying glass under the "details for Type" column, the "Use Variable of OLAP Processor" window appears showing the OLAP Variable and the fiscal year variant. When you hit F6 (check) it should process the variant and return data for the ranges. With this variant we are using there is not data being returned (using the SAP exit variants data is returned).
I have gone through the forums and have seen people citing the function module EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001 as this is the user exit which houses such abap code. I have seen the variant inside this module and the code itself, but why is it in the infopackage when I click on check (F6) no data is returned? I am getting the feeling this abap code is only executed for reporting. In this case I want the infopackage to select certain data from R/3 (via the use of OLAP variable with custom code) during the load to the ODS.

Hi Mark,
If you created the custom fiscal year variant as a customer exit type, I doubt that it'll work.
Variant is an auxiliary time characteristic. You cannot create it. You can only add new char values:
BW Customizing Implementation Guide (SPRO tcode) -> Business Information Warehouse -> General BW Settings -> Maintain fiscal year variant.
Though, maybe I misunderstood your requirements.

Eugene

OLAP variable in the Infopackage

Hi folks,
I would like to use OLAP variable in the infopackage so I selected Type 7 in the infopackage and selected OLAP variable '0DAT' since I need the current date. By default, the current date is selected as 'From' in the infopackage selection. How can I change this so that
1) the infopackage uses this OLAP variable for the 'To Value' field and not 'From Value' and keeps the 'From Value' blank.
2) the infopackage uses this OLAP variable for the 'To Value' field and manually a date can be entered for the 'From Value'.
Thanks for your help.

Probably not possible via type 7 but possible via type 6
use the code below
data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
data: lower_limit LIKE SY-DATUM.
data: upper_limit LIKE SY-DATUM.
upper_limit = sy-datum .
lower_limit = sy-datum - 1000000. This should set lower limit to a least possible value
read table l_t_range with key
fieldname = 'BUDAT'.
l_idx = sy-tabix.
l_t_range-low = lower_limit.
l_t_range-high = upper_limit.
l_t_range-sign = 'I'.
l_t_range-option = 'BT'.
modify l_t_range index l_idx.
p_subrc = 0.
Whenever you need to change your lower limit you have to enter inside the code and change it.

Anindya

InfoPackage OLAP variables used in the ZXRSRU01 INCLUDE - I_STEP value ?

Dear All, as I am aware OLAP variables used in InfoPackage Data Selection are processed in the standard user exit (EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001) - INCLUDE ZXRSRU01 where the customer created global reporting variables are also processed when queries are run and are processed according to the value of I_STEP being 1, 2 or 3.
When processing the variables according to the running of InfoPackages the value of I_STEP in this case seems to be 0. Is this always the case for the value of I_STEP = 0 when processing according to InfoPackage?
I have meticulously searched documentation and can only find the I_STEP = 0 value when applied to Authorisation processing.
We are creating separate Includes depending on the value of I_STEP instead of having one great block of code in the ZXRSRU01 Include.
We obviously want the InfoPackage code to run only when the InfoPackage runs instead of it being checked every time a query is run.
Also is there an easier way to see where a customer variable is used:
1) rather than creating a dummy query that uses the variable to restrict a characteristic and using the right click mouse funstion to see where the varaible is used in queries? and
2) also when the variable is used in InfoPackage selection is there a transaction or feature somewhere to see where this variable is used in these selections as opposed to looking at the table RSLDPSEL via SE16 selecting on variable name
i.e is there a nice "where used" feature that shows comprehensively where a customer user exit variable is used across the board.
Thanks
Mark

Hi Sarah,
You don't need any FM for your issue.
Please try thie sample code :
DATA: VAR_INPIUT LIKE RRRANGEEXIT.
CASE I_VNAM.
WHEN 'ZVAR2'.
   CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
   IF I_STEP = 2."PROCESSED AFTER VARIABLE INPUT
*Reading value of ZVAR1
    LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO VAR_INPIUT
      WHERE VNAM = 'ZVAR1'.
      CASE VAR_INPIUT-LOW.
*FILLING ZVAR2
       WHEN 0.
          L_S_RANGE-LOW     = 10.
       WHEN 1.
          L_S_RANGE-LOW     = 20.
      ENDCASE.
      L_S_RANGE-SIGN     = 'I'.
      L_S_RANGE-OPT      = 'EQ'.
      APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
      EXIT.
    ENDLOOP.
ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
Hope this helps

Infopackage Selections Tab-OLAP Variable/ABAP Routine

Hi Experts
In my Infopackage Selections Tab i had Cal Mon/Year field....
As per my requirment i have to write a selection condion that when we execute info package (it is a monthly data load) it will extract data only for the months greater than or equal to current month
Please update me on how can i achieve this either by using OLAP Variable or ABAP Routine in infopackage...will be great if can provide the required ABAP Code
Thanks in Advance

here's an example that fills the fiscal year from last month (bold is customer code... the rest is standard):
data: l_idx like sy-tabix.
read table l_t_range with key
       fieldname = 'PARAM_P_GJAHR'.
l_idx = sy-tabix.
data:
v_caldy type /BI0/OICALDAY,
v_calmn type /BI0/OICALMONTH,
v_calyr type /BI0/OICALYEAR.
v_caldy = sy-datum.
determine first day*
v_caldy+6(2) = '01'.
determine last month*
subtract 1 from v_caldy.
v_calyr = v_caldy(4).
l_t_range-sign   = 'I'.
l_t_range-option = 'EQ'.
l_t_range-low    = v_calyr.
modify l_t_range index l_idx.

SAP BI - OLAP variable in DTP unable to read from input ready variable in query

Hello,
Here's the problem:
We have a process chain which is launched in a WAD.
We would like to filter the DTPs in the PC with the values entered in the variable screen of the WAD
I created a variable of type customer exit X which reads the input ready variable Y in CMOD.
Customer exit variable X was placed in the filter of the DTP.
The input ready variable Y in the query contained in the WAD.
I am getting an error that customer exit variable X is getting not value.
Is it possible to read an input ready variable in a customer exit variable placed in a DTP?
Or am I missing a step here?
Please help.
Thanks in advance

Hi Anjalee,
Maybe it would be good to share a bit more information on your scenario and the chosen solution design. I am currently missing the point of triggering a Process Chain using Web Application Designer.
Anyway, I recommend to be careful with using OLAP variables in DTP filters. For sure not all functionality is present, e.g. because the variable pop-up is absent. Your constellation of an input ready variable and a customer-exit variable will only work in the context of a BEx Query and probably not if used in a DTP filter.
Best regards,
Sander

InfoPackage selection offset with OLAP variable

Hi Bw Gurus,
I have a requirement to load ODS with full upload everytime but in order to reduce repeated loads I am trying to use a DATE field which is not part of communication str. as a selection critera in InfoPacakge.
I changed DS to include this field avaialable for selection and It's working fine when I input date to and from values hard coded in InfoPackage.
Further I am trying to automate this InfoPackage scheduled weekly and I need to include date offset value for this DATE field to load for additional last 2 weeks every time to capture changes for already loaded data.
I have created OLAP customer exit variable having Date interval for Date starting from last 3 weeks to Current DAte and included in InfoPackage selection for DATE field but it's not working. By the way if someone can explain what's meaning for two columns there for TYPE(Variable change to selection.....) and detail for type.
Any clue for reason or any other way to accomplish this requirement?
Thanks in advance,

hi,
can you explain me ,hw you solved the pbm,
the same pbm i am facing.
i am trying to load the data everyweek ( i have date field ),so i have selected OLAP Variable option -7 and there i have selected 0WEEK,but data is not comining from R/3,then i have selected the option -6 abap code,i have written code to get the date range,even though i am not able to retrive the data.
can you suggest me
Thanks
