Value set to make BEx variable faster (BW3.5)

edit> No one knows?! I really didn't think this will be difficult, come one... easy points for this one!
Good day all,
This must be a simple problem, but I cant find any instruction on the web how to do this.
Ive got a BEx query on BW3.5 that has a variable as input, but when you click on the dropdown box, it takes extremely long to bring back a set of values.
Ive been told the way to get pass this problem is to define a pre-calculated value set in Reporting Agent.
I have done this, but cant get the query to use it.
What are the steps? It should be simple
Ive chosen the following options (which is not working)
Processing by: User entry / Default Value
Variable represents: Precalculated value set*
Variable entry is: Optional
Valueset: Z_MY_VALUE_SET
I dont think this is right, because this implies that the query automatically uses the value set as filter, instead of the users input.
What is happening, is that when the variable dialog opens up, it shows Z_MY_VALUE_SET as default value and when I open the dropdown it still takes long to retrieve the values.
Thanks in advance
Rudolph

About precaliculated value sets

Hai all experts,
                            I want to know usage of precalicaulated value set in reporting agent.give me one scenario regarding usage of this. i would be very happy if any body respond ASAP.
suneel

Hi,
Precalculating Value Sets
Use
The distribution type Precalculated Value Set allows you to fill variables of the type precalculated value sets with values for characteristic values in the background. The precalculated value sets are then available as variable values in BEx queries.
The following cases are typical examples of where the execution of precalculated value sets in the background is used:
·        When analyzing target groups, because you can specify a fixed value
·        When complex selections are involved such as with top N queries, used to greatly improve query performance
·        Instead of variables that are filled from a query event (Replacement Path: Replacement from Query)
Prerequisites
The query must contain the characteristic that is the placeholder for the variables.
You have created a broadcast setting or reporting agent setting for the query you want and you have chosen the distribution type Precalculate Value Set. The output format is value set.
BW Variables can be filled by precalculated value sets (e.g. a variable filled with a top N customer list). This value set is based on a separate query. The precalculation of the value set is done in the Reporting agent or Broadcaster.
Create a BW Query Q1 that provides the basis for the value set, e.g. a top N customer list based on sales in the last year.
Create a value set variable V1 that is based on the corresponding characteristic.
Create a query Q2 that uses this variable.
If you want more help let me know. If it is useful don't forget to assign points.

WAD drop-down box and commands on Set Variable values/ Set Filter Values

Hello to all
I am confused in WAD and Help online couldn't clarify my concerns. Thus here following issue:
I am using a WAD, where the data provider (query) is set dynamically. I would like that
1 user selects company in drop-down-box 1
2 I use commands on drop-down-box 1 to manage the next drop-down-box 2 ( like it becomes input ready)
3 user selects plant in drop-down-box 2
4 User selects a tab strip A, where report A of multiple reports is placed. Now in this moment I assign the query A to the data provider A.
Now my questions:
- I am not clear how to use the bex-variables required for the query ( like company and plan). If I use in drop-down variables, then I can't set anymore commands
- What means and makes the command set_variable_state
- What means and makes the command set_selection_state
Thanks a lot for your clarification and help
Christian

Hi Christian,
I will try and answer your Qs
- I am not clear how to use the bex-variables required for the query ( like company and plan). If I use in drop-down variables, then I can't set anymore commands
>> Can you explain how exactly are you trying to populate the DropDown webitems for Company / Plant data for user-selection.
- What means and makes the command set_variable_state
>> SET_VARIABLE_STATE is used to assign input values to your query variables. Here, the command gives you a range of input options to select from such as Characteristic/Text/Formula/Hierarchy Variables & Binding Type Selection. Binding Type Selection in addition gives you more options such as assigning manual input from a Text webitem [ITEM_INPUT], assigning value from another Variable [VARIABLE], or simply assigning the selected value from an underlying Data Provider such as one mapped to a DropDown webitem [DATA_PROVIDER_CHARACTERISTIC].
- What means and makes the command set_selection_state
>> SET_SELECTION_STATE is used to assign input values to Characteristics in your query. It serves as a Filter option.
I think in your case using SET_VARIABLE_STATE makes more sense. You can use Binding Type Selection with [DATA_PROVIDER_CHARACTERISTIC] on both the DropDown webitems to assign the values of Company / Plant to the query on runtime.

Urgent!!! How to give a value to a BEx variable in the planning fuction?

Hi all,
does anybody know how can set variable's value in the palnning fuction (type exit) in IP?
The two function modules in BPS which make this job don't work in the IP.
thanks very much for any proposal.
hongwei

Hi,
Reg the first part of the question, can you please explain how do you want to capture the variable for the custom planning function? Because, when I look at standard functions delivered by SAP, in the FROM CHANGE and TO CHANGE(for example copy function), we can select the BI variables or create new variables also.
To pass the values to this variable from BEx Analyzer, we need to use the command range in BEx Analyzer and capture the values.
I have used this approach to capture the BEx variable values into a FOX function using VARV function, but Im not pretty sure how to pass it to a custom planning function.
Regarding the second part of the question can you pls look at FM : RSPLSSE_PLSEQ_EXECUTE. I think you need to embedd your planning function into a sequence and call it with the above FM.
You can also have a look at the ABAP program that is used to trigger a planning sequence by placing a breakpoint in any of the planning functions : "RSPLS_PLSEQ_EXECUTE" wherein you can pass the sequence name in the variant.

Crystal Report not Adopting all possible Dropdown Values from BEx Variable

Hi all,
I am having an issue in a Crystal report where the drop down parameter that is sourced from a BEx query variable does not include all the possible values in the cube (or in master data). After learning my lesson the first time of not changing the name of the variable or changing it to dynamic (this causes it to break), I had the understanding that the value list may not be complete when running the report in the Crystal client or in the viewer, however, I thought it should be correct when published to the BOE and run in infoview. I am getting the same incomplete list in infoview. I published the report into infoview using the Crystal 2008 desktop client, not the /CRYSTAL/RPTADMIN transaction.
I know there are a couple ways of sourcing a Crystal report from a BW query - using MDX vs. not, etc. I created this report using the SAP menu > "Create new report from a query". I don't believe Crystal will easily let you use that menu option to create a report off two BW queries joined together (which is what I am doing), so I built it off one originally (using the SAP menu), then added the other later on. I have the checkbox for "Use MDX driver with support for Multiple structures" checked. In database expert, my "Selected Tables" both are of database type "SAP BW Query".
Do I have the right understanding of how the value list should work when sourced from a BEx variable? If so, can anyone offer any suggestions for getting the value list populated correctly?
Here's some info:
Crystal version: CR2008, version 12.2.4.507
BOE version 3.1
SAP BW 7.01 EhP 6
Thanks,
Chad

Hi,
- in the Crystal Reports designer the list of values is not online and there is a maximum number of values - configured by a registry setting:
(windows 7)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\SAP\BWQueryReportWrapper
Key: MaxPickListSize
and correct you can not change the name of the variable or set it to dynamic as the definition is based on the BEx query.
I know there are a couple ways of sourcing a Crystal report from a BW query - using MDX vs. not, etc. I created this report using the SAP menu > "Create new report from a query". I don't believe Crystal will easily let you use that menu option to create a report off two BW queries joined together (which is what I am doing), so I built it off one originally (using the SAP menu), then added the other later on. I have the checkbox for "Use MDX driver with support for Multiple structures" checked. In database expert, my "Selected Tables" both are of database type "SAP BW Query".
The checkbox on the Multi Structure is not for the option to combine 2 Bex queries - it is for Bex queries with 2 structures and the BW query driver has been deprecated already and you have to use the MDX Driver.
Do I have the right understanding of how the value list should work when sourced from a BEx variable? If so, can anyone offer any suggestions for getting the value list populated correctly?
in Crystal Reports Designer the list is static and when you publish the report using the BW Publishing to your SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise system the list becomes dynamic in InfoView.

Can't set intial value for cRIO boolean shared variable

LabVIEW 8.0 gives me a configuration error when I try to force an inital value for a Boolean shared variable in my cRIO library. Is that a bug, or am I overlooking some (probably obvious!) limitation of the cRIO hardware?

There are 3 screenshots attached to this post. Suppose I create a Boolean shared variable under My Computer in the project directory, then set the inital value as shown in BooleanInitialValue.gif.
If I drag a copy of that Boolean shared variable to my RT target block diagram, the run arrow breaks and I get the error shown in ErrorList.gif.
If I create a Boolean shared variable under my Real Time target (Compact RIO) in the project directory, then set the initial value and hit OK, I get the error shown in FixConfiguration.gif.

Make diffrence between values set by user and others by binding

Hello, I'm working with comboboxes. Selected Value is sometime set by user and somtimes set by bindings. I have to launch actions only when the selected value is set by user. Is there any possible way to do it? Thank a lot.

If the value selected is dependent from the value chosen by user and depending on other data at once
This sounds like you have one variable representing two distinct things; but maybe your requirements somehow necessitate this.
Here's what I meant. I have a background thread (using a Timeline) which changes the combo box randomly every two seconds. (This is a mockup of your requirement of it depending on another value.) The output to the console happens only if the user changes the combo box manually.

WEBI prompt based on bex variable suppress not assigned hashtag value in LOV

Hi,
is it possible to suppress the "Not assigned (#)" value from the list of values in a webi prompt based on a bex variable?
This "Not assigned" value is something BW specific, BW adds this to each characteristic automatically?!
WEBI:
RSRT:
It needs to work in WEBI, not only in RSRT, and the filtering of data still needs to work.
For rsrt it works, when you exclude the not assigned value in "Filter > Characteristic Restrictions" and use the bex variable in/through "Filter > Default Values", but this does not work in WEBI, because the BEX Query Data is not filtered on the in the prompt selected value.
Thanks.
Regards
David

Thanks David for a quick reply !
I could manage to avoid # values in WebI prompt using BAdI implementation, here is the brief:
Problem:
WebI report prompt (which shows BEx variable) list of values shows blanks or # . Rrequirement was to avoid these blanks or #
Environment:
BW 7.3
BO 4.0
BW Cube > BEx Query > OLAP Connection > WebI report
Solution:
InfoObject Level1 in BW had # values in masterdata, this could not be deleted since it was in use with other Cubes.
Vaurable Var_Level1 displays # when pressed F4 running BEx query and in list of values in WebI report prompt.
I implemented BAdI on Level1 info object and variable Var_Level1.
Steps to implement BAdI are as in following link
BEx Query - Control the values which are shown on F4
Used following code to elimitate #.
METHOD IF_RSR_VARIABLE_F4_RESTRICT~GET_RESTRICTION_FLAT.

Fill BEx Variable with more than one value via Custom Exit

Dear SDN comunity,
I want to fill a BEx Variable via a custom exit. My problem is, I don't know how to fill this variable with more than one value.
I try to give you some background info based on an exaple:
Variable-Details
Type of Variable: Characteristic Value
Variable Name: ZCCD
Description: Company Code Selection
Processing by: Custom Exit
Characteristic: Company Code
Variable Represents: Multiple Single Values
This is the used ABAP code:
WHEN 'ZCCD'.
CLEAR l_s_range.
l_s_range-low = '2002;2004'.
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
l_s_range-sign = 'EQ'.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
The system returns this message:
Value "2002;2004" is too long for variable ZCCD
appreciate your help!
//michael

Eugene, Marcus
it works now, thx a lot!
Please find attached the final code:
CLEAR l_s_range.
l_s_range-low = '2002'.
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
CLEAR l_s_range.
l_s_range-low = '2004'.
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.

Hi Shafi...
Yes it can be done. Insert a Dataprovier Information Item and a Script Item with a code for querying the xml island that provide the infomation you need. I hope this helps. If you need help with the code let me know.

Bex Variable Value as Text in the report heading

Hi
We have fiscal year as a Bex variable and the user is prompted to enter a value when running the report.
I have found that it is possible to add a filter to a report text box (Cell) by creating a formula and adding this to the cell contents.
However, is it possible to add a Bex variable to display as text in a report header. For example the user enters Fiscal Year = 2012 and the report header displays "Headcount for 2012".
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ian

Hai
Yes Possible u can use the formula
