V3 Fiscvar to Calender months

Please see this scenario
I have data coming from my ODS into a cube. The data is based on periods (ie no date). My reporting requirements are monthly.
I woudl like to leave the ODS alone but create a time conversion from the update rules to convert from Period to Calender Month. I have tried using the FISCPER_CALMONTH in the update rules but i keep getting an error saying Formula element is not allowed here in the section where I put the year.
Is there any other way for this to be done?
I would also like the 4 special periods to be considered.
Thanks

Hi,
I donot understand why are you using the Year in that formula .You need to use <i>Fiscal year period</i> time characterstic (may be use need to use Fiscal year variant also) in that update rule formula.

Display of calender month text instead of values in BEx report.

Hi,
I have calender months in the reporting columns, values of these reporting columns are dynamic in reports. We need to replace these values with text of the calender months. I have seen it at some places but do not remember how to do it now.
Can some one has idea on this, will update on this post please.

Hi
if you want to display in columns along with the data then right click and select properties and the select the disply as Text .
If you want to display in the header go the properties and in the header (Title area where u provide desxcription) instead of ur description enter the text variable &0T_CMONV& or you can select the text variable from the list .

Current Calender month in Varient

Hi all,
I'm running abap program where the input has Calender month (MM/YYYY). So i have created the varient where this calender month selection will always be the current month whenever this program executes. Say for eg. if i'm running today it is 02/2008, if im running next month it is 03/2008. How can i define this in variant's Selection Variable. The type of the calender month is char6. the Calendar month is mandatory to execute this program, this to automate the process, as not to change variant values periodically each month.
Thanks

hi,
Step 1: Go to transaction SE38 to specify the Program name and select u2018Variantu2019 radio button and u2018Displayu2019.
Then it will lead you to next screen u2018ABAP:Variants u2013Initial Screenu2019 as shown below: Specify the variant which needs to be created or changed.
Step2: Specify all those values which are static on the selection screen in this step. Then click u2018Variant Attributesu2019 to define selection variable for u2018Date Createdu2019 on the selection screen.
Step 3: In this step, provide suitable meaning for the variant. As we need to define selection variable for u2018Date createdu2019 item on selection screen, check the box under L
Step 4: In the previous step, select u2018Selection Variablesu2019 on the menu. It leads to the next screen as shown below. As we have decided to create selection variable for u2018Date createdu2019 item only, in this screen you get to see the variable as u2018Date createdu2019. Here you are provided with three options.
T: Table variable from TVARV
D: Dynamic Date Calculation
B: User defined Variables.
From the provided options as per our requirement select u2018Du2019 option. This can be done by clicking the Traffic lights under u2018Du2019as shown below to know that the particular option is selected.
Now click the black arrow and you will be prompted with search help of different formulas for the selection variable.
Step 5: Find the suitable formula as u2018Current date u2013 xxx, current date + yyyu2019 and select it. This will lead you to the next screen to enter the values for xxx and yyy. So, provide values as 15 for xxx and 0 for yyy. Save the variant and this will conclude the creation of dynamic variant with the help of selection variable. This variant can also be used in the background jobs.
i tried pasting the link but some issue is ther..open google and type how to make dynamic variant in sap see the first result...its very useful

LOV custom sorting in prompts for calender month

Hello Everyone,
I want to do sorting in prompts in webi for Calender Month in the form (Jan,Feb,Mar....)
Whereas, it comes alphabetically As (Apr,Aug and so on....) i want to know that can we find the solution for the same.
I also want to know if yes can we do it in webi itself or we will have to do it on Information Design Tool?

Hi Foram. I, too, am using HANA as my backend. Here's one way you can sort your data-driven prompts that appear in Web Intelligence:
Open your business layer within the Information Design Tool.
Verify that the column to be displayed in the Webi prompt (e.g., "Month") has been defined in your business layer.
Select the "Parameters and Lists of Values" button.
In the "List of Values" frame, press the down arrow and then select "List of values based on business layer objects".
Give the the list an intuitive name; e.g., "Month LOV".
On the Definition tab, press the "Edit Query..." button.
Drag the column to be displayed in the Webi prompt (e.g, "Month") to the Result Objects frame.
Press the "Sort dialog..." button.
In the Sort dialog box, press the "Insert Sort Object" button.
Select the column to sort on; e.g., "Month" and then press the OK button.
Verify the sort type; e.g., "Ascending".
Press the OK button.
Press the Preview button to confirm the results.
Save and publish the universe to your repository.
Open your Webi report.
Enter into Design mode.
Open the Query Panel.
Select the appropriate query.
In the Query Filters frame, select the prompt (e.g., "Month") and press the "Show prompt properties" button.
In the Prompt Properties dialog box, in the Prompt Properties frame, make sure "Prompt with List of Values" is selected.
Press the OK button.
Press the Close button.
Press the Refresh button.
Confirm that the prompt (e.g., "Month") is sorted properly.
Hope this helps!

Variable for calender month in BEX Query

Hi all ,
I am new to BI .
Can any one please guide on how to create a month year variable that I can get calculated from a date..
For Example
if billing date is 01.02.2009 then my variable should have 02.2009 in Query   .
Regards,
Shashank

Hi Shashank,
    You can achieve this by creating a customer exit variable for calendar month.
Function module :
READ TABLE i_t_var_range WITH KEY vnam = 'Date variable name ' INTO loc_var_range.
   IF sy-subrc = 0.
    year = loc_var_range-low(4).
    month = loc_var_range-low+4(2).
     CLEAR l_s_range.
     l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
     l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
     CONCATENATE year month INTO l_s_range-low.
     APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
   ENDIF.
Hope this will help you. Let me know if you have any questions.

Forecast consumption within Calender month

Hi,
When the forecast is released from Demand Planning to Supply Planning (SNP) in weekly buckets there will be crossover of the forecast for the weeks that are in the Month end/Month Beginning, the week could fall into different months.
Even though we restrict the forecast consumption to the calendar month, it could still be consuming some forecast in the weekly bucket that overlaps the end of one month and the beginning of the next month.
How to overcome this problem. I need to restrict the consumption to present month, wheather the bucket is day or week.
I already seen the post by Dan Hofstatter , its very useful for me. But still the above problem.

Appreciate the response.
Thanks

Hello Ravi,
thanks for the response. Infact this is what I expected. Maybe I will raise a feature request on that question 2 because from business side it sounds logically.
Thanks,

To show all months of qty values for each fiscal year in report?

Our cube contains different fiscal years of order qty/delivered qty for a material (e.g. material A). We use fiscal year variant V9 (Oct. - Sep). We would like to generate the following query result to list the material, order qty, fiscal year, and then for each calender month, the delivered qty value for the corresponding fiscal year:
Column title:
Material --- Order Qty --- Fiscal Year --- Oct --- Nov --- Dec --- Jan --- Feb --- Mar --- Apr --- May --- Jun --- Jul --- Aug --- Sep
Just give two rows of data for material A:
1st row data example:
A (material) --- 23 (Order Qty) --- 2006 (fiscal year) --- 2 (delivered qty in Oct of the calendar year 2005 ) --- 4(delivered qty in Nov of the calendar year 2005 ) ---1 (delivered qty in Dec of the calendar year 2005 ) --- 5 (delivered qty in Jan of the calendar year 2006 ) --- .... 2 (delivered qty in Sep. of the calendar year 2006)
2nd row data example:
A (material) --- 45 (Order Qty) --- 2007 (fiscal year) --- 3(delivered qty in Oct of the calendar year 2006 ) --- 6 (delivered qty in Nov of the calendar year 2006 ) ---1 (delivered qty in Dec of the calendar year 2006 ) --- 5 (delivered qty in Jan of the calendar year 2007 ) --- .... 2 (delivered qty in Sep. of the calendar year 2007)
How to generate this query?
Thanks!

hi Chandran,
Actually in each row data for material in different fiscal year, all the KFs in columns should be restricted to the fiscal year value. What we do is to use selections other than structure or RKF. What we is following listed in details that you can check if what we do is correct:
Under KF structure:
1. Create a selection for the 1st KF (Order Qty). In this selection, Order Qty is restricted with the characteristic 0FISCYEAR.
2. Create a formular as 2nd KF for the FY value. This formula KF use the value of a formular variable with Replacement Path of the the characteristic 0FISCYEAR. But somehow this KF value shows "X" values in this column. We defined this Replacement Path variable with the Reference Characteristic as 0FISCYEAR and all others keep default. But don't know why this column shows "X" values. We also add 0FISCYEAR to the row, and find the one does have data in the row. Any idea why put it in formular variable onto column not working?
3. Create a selecction for the 3rd KF (Oct). In this selection, restrict Delivered Qty with the characteristic 0CALMONTH2 (Calendar month) and further restrict 0CALMONTH2 to a fixed value: October
4. Create a selecction for the 4th KF (Nov). In this selection, restrict Delivered Qty with the characteristic 0CALMONTH2 (Calendar month) and further restrict 0CALMONTH2 to a fixed value: November.
Then the following steps are similar to step 3 and 4 to create all other Month columns. We wonder in all these selections, would we have to restrict them further with 0FISCYEAR?
Therefore we've got two questions:
1. Why in step 2, the formular variable doesn't work and the FY column shows "X" values?
2. Do we need to further restrict the delivered qty with the characteristic 0FISCYEAR for each month column which corresonding to the fiscal year in the same row?
Thanks alot and we are keeping giving you reward points!

How to get the last day of a month?

HI,
I want to know how to get the last day of a month.
In my JClient form, I tried to get it by using oracle.sql.Date method, that is:
lastday=oracle.sql.Date anydate.lastDayOfMonth();
But it does not work. The result is lastday=anydate.
Why?
Stephen

You can use the Calender class...
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
and then something like...
c.add(c.MONTH, 1);
int dayOfMonth = c.get(Calender.MONTH);
c.add(c.DAY_OF_MONTH, - (dayOfMonth-1) );
other usefull functions are:
System.out.println(" YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.YEAR));
System.out.println(" MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH));
System.out.println(" HOUR : " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR));
System.out.println(" AM_PM : " + c.get(Calendar.AM_PM));
System.out.println(" HOUR_OF_DAY (24-hour): " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY));
System.out.println(" MINUTE : " + c.get(Calendar.MINUTE));
System.out.println(" SECOND : " + c.get(Calendar.SECOND));
System.out.println();*/
