Variable Assignment-Workbook Precalculation

Hai Guys,
I have a problem while executing.please,go through it
Start---BEx Analyzer--
Create new work book.While executing the work book,it is asking me to enter variable values.Once the variables are given and when start executing it, i am getting the ouput correctly and when i  broadcast the same through email,in work precalculation tab, again it is asking me to enter variable values.I have done that and  executed.  But I am  not able to receive any email.Infact,after taking 3 mnts it showing Timed out error.Kindly,suggest me with a solution to this. Where should I exactly enter variables?
Kindly,give me a solution for this.
Thanks,
Mohan Chand Reddy A

Hai Shakir,
                First i thank q for ur reply to my question.But is it correct that we should assign Variables only in the Workbook Precalculation tab?Some one are suggesting like variables can be given both in foreground calculation i.e., while creating a workbook and also we should give the same variables in the workbook  precalculation tab.But in one document, i found there is no variable assignment tab in the Broadcasting settings.It means they might have given variables in the workbook creation itself.
      Please,reply me.It's very urgent.
Thanks,
Mohan Chand Reddy A

  • Variable Assignment : Workbook broadcast

    Hi gurus,
    We have been broadcasting 31 Inventory workbooks on a weekly basis for the past couple of months. The workbook is based on 1 inventory query which has a Cal Month and Store Location as mandatory variables. Obviously, while broadcasting the same, we should be able to set these variables in the Variable Assignment of the Workbook Precalculation Tab.
    Earlier I was able to see them in the variable assignment assignment for this workbook. We havn't changed the query, no changes in the system, No changes at all. But now I am not able to see a single variable in the variable assignment except for this variable that says Tech.Cont.: Time Frame for which Data is Selected.
    I am not sure where can I see the variants for this workbook. Anyways, we havn't mentioned any variants in the workbook precalculation tab. Please help me with this issue.
    I executed the query and tried broadcasting the corresponding query, Here I am able to see the variable assignment. But not for the corresponding workbook. Creating all the settings right from the scratch for changing from workbook broadcast to query result broadcast would be a very tedious task which I don't want to undertake right now.
    Can anyone please help me with this problem.
    Thanks & rgds,
    Sree

    Hi Murali,
    Thanks for your answer and sorry wasn't able to respond early.
    As I had mentioned, this problem didn't exist earlier. However, all of a sudden, we have started to face this issue. Global variants were never created because we are not using the option of VARIANTS, instead we use Variable Assignments. This has been the practice for the past many months, but all of sudden since last month, we started having this strange issue where we could'nt determine the variable assignment.
    When know I click on the variable assignment create link, there is only one variable that appears in the screen "Tech.Cont.: Time Frame for which Data is Selected", I donot see any other variables. Earlier though, i was able to see all the other variables (Plant, division, etc).
    Please let me know if you have any answer for this issue.
    Thnks & rgds,

  • Variable Assignment in General Precalculation tab of BI 7.0 broadcaster

    Hi,
      In the broadcast setting, under General precalculation tab variable values can be set up. When we are clicking create variable values, screen with all the variables of the query were coming.
    After entering data in the variables and clicking OK, values are not being transferred to the Broadcast setting. The variable page remains like that with out transferring to the Pre Calculation tab.
    We are on SAPKW70020.Distribution type used is Broadcast email, output fornat is MHTML. I tried with other output types, but same result.
    We are using query as the object type for creating Bex Broadcaster.
    Has anyone ran into this issue before?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Pradeep

    Hi Mohan,
    You have opened up an old post, so many responses might be to answer the initial question.
    However, to answer your question, when you click 'Create' next to the 'VAR01 in Variable assignment, what you see is a popup window with the 'Ready for Input' variable present in your query/ workbook/ template, which is the same variable screen which you get when you execute the same query/ workbook/ template independently. You can then enter values for those variables and click OK, to save it and to be passed to the broadcasting setting. The broadcast would then happen for the same variable values.
    However, if you face the issue mentioned by Pradeep, then after clicking OK, you can cancel the popup window. The values of the variables would still be passed.
    After the popup window closes, you can see the 'Create', you initially saw, replaced with 'Change'. This means the values are saved.
    Hope it helps.
    Thanks,
    Abhishek.

  • Broadcasting - General Precalculation Variable Assignment

    Hi All,
    Just have a query regarding Broadcast settings for a bex Query with variables.
    After creating the broadcast settings under the "General Precalculation"
    Variable Assignment
    > Determine from Variants options
    Can anyone tell me where do we have to create these variants so as to select them from the Broadcast settings window and map it to the query varaibles??
    Thanks
    Rao

    Hi Rao,
    You just need to execute ur query ( either in Bex Analyser or Web analyser ). In the selection screen you can enter the values for ur variable & save as a variant ( ex: VARIANT1 ).
    In broadcasting now click now variant tab there u can see the VARIANT1 which was created during query execution.
    Hope this helps.

  • Variable assignment "Create" link opens up BEx Analyzer

    In a portal environment we're testing with, we are running into an unusual issue:
    In BEx Broadcaster, We open up a setting created for a particular query.  In the General Precalculation tab we are trying to create a variable assignment (Select VAR_01 from dropdown menu -->Create "link"), but when we click on the "Create" link, we're getting the BEx Analyzer instead of the variable screen for that query (doesn't work for any query, but for workbook settings, it works fine).  The following has been checked:
    ms/redirect_version is set to 1
    BI Support Desk tool is all GREEN
    Assertion ticket setup is correct (at least I think it is)
    I can also pull up Information Broadcasting directly from the backend system (sap/bw/Bex) and the variable screen comes up okay.
    Any ideas of some setting we're missing in the portal/backend?   Thanks for any help.
    (We're using NW SP 17 with BI-Java 17/23...BI Backend is NW SPS16)

    UPDATE:  fixed by updating support pack to BI JAva 18 (from 17/23).  The solution doesn't make much sense, but we've learned to just accept these sort of things in faith

  • Issue with the variable assignment in th Bex broadcaster

    hi ,
    i am working on Bex broadcaster . while creating a setting for a report, in the variable assignment under the General precalculation tab, the value given is not getting transferred.
    i tried it in development portal its working fine.
    do anyone have any ideas abt this.

  • Broadcasting and Variable Assignment

    Dear Experts,
      I want to assign variable in broadcasting dynamically. For example, this variable will be changed every month. I tried to set the variant on BEx Analyzer, and looked into the table TVARV, but I couldn't find my variant in that table. Is there any way to assign variable dynamically?

    Hi CSM Reddy,
    1. while creating your Broadcasting Settings ... you can use your Variable for OLAP Cache.
        Question1. How and where can I use variable for OLAP Cache in broadcasting. What I just see is variable assignment in the General Precalculation tab
        Question2. Variable for OLAP Cache you said is the same as the variable created in Query Designer, right?
    2. then you make sure the variable in Bex is setup with "Ready for input" unchecked
        Question1. I have to allow users to input month to see the report in the month they want, so I think I can't default the value for this variable.
        Question2. What do you mean 't Type variable'?

  • SQL*Plus variable assignment works for 8i but not 9i

    We have scripts that connect to each database on the box and perform database tasks nightly. The scripts first set the environment then connects to each database with SQL*Plus. This works for 8i but fails in the recently created 9i environment. (Unix Solaris environment)
    Because the SQL*Plus connection appears in many areas in the scripts, we assign the following connection string to a variable:
    SQLPLUS="/usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba'"
    Export SQLPLUS
    echo "$SQLPLUS"
    (This echo out correctly: /usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba')
    It fails when the script calls the assigned variable:
    $SQLPLUS <<-EOF
    with the following error:
    Usage: SQLPLUS [ [<option>] [<logon>] [<start>] ]
    where <option> ::= -H | -V | [ [-L] [-M <o>] [-R <n>] [-S] ]
    <logon> ::= <username>[<password>][@<connect_string>] | / | /NOLOG
    <start> ::= @<URI>|<filename>[.<ext>] [<parameter> ...]
    "-H" displays the SQL*Plus version banner and usage syntax
    "-V" displays the SQL*Plus version banner
    "-L" attempts log on just once
    "-M <o>" uses HTML markup options <o>
    "-R <n>" uses restricted mode <n>
    "-S" uses silent mode
    However, if I remove the SQLPLUS variable assignment and changed all occurrence of
    $SQLPLUS <<-EOF to
    /usr/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus -s 'xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba' <<-EOF
    Then the script runs successfully. But this solution is cumbersome.
    Any ideas as to how to have the script work with assigning the SQLPLUS variable????
    Any help is appreciated.

    I has an immediate suspicion it might be related to the issue
    mentioned in
    http://otn.oracle.com/support/tech/sql_plus/htdocs/sub_var2.html#2_7
    but this proved wrong: the SP2-306 still occurs in the latest
    SQL*Plus.
    I wonder what version of 8i you had working? With an old SQL*Plus
    8.1.7.0 my connection failed the same as in 9.2 and 10i.
    My solution was to do:
      SQLPLUS='sqlplus -s'
      UNPW='/ as sysdba'
      $SQLPLUS "$UNPW" &lt;&lt;EOF
      EOFThis worked in 9.2.0.5, 10.1.0.2 and 8.1.7.0.
    One common security risk on UNIX remains: putting the username and
    password on the command line. On some systems a "ps" command will
    show the password to any user. If OS authentication cannot be used
    for connection, perhaps putting the username/password in the SQL
    script may be more secure?
    A final note is that in SQL*Plus 10g, no quotes are needed around
    AS SYSDBA, i.e.
      sqlplus / as sysdba works from the OS prompt, whereas in 9.2 you need to do
      sqlplus "/ as sysdba"This makes a solution easy:
      SQLPLUS="/usr/oracle/product/10.1.0/bin/sqlplus -s xxx/xxxxxx@xxxx as sysdba"-- CJ

  • Attributes / Variable assignment in Excel

    How do you create a variable assignment in Excel that passes the "test script coverage" report?
    We thought we were being clever when we put a list of our variable assignments in Excel. This allowed us to sort the assignments (something we could not do in Word.)
    Our process in Excel:
    We put an empty cell in the top row with the "OPM - Condition Heading" style.
    In the rows underneath that, we put our attributes with the "OPM - Conclusion Heading" style.
    To the right of the attributes, we put the assigned values with the "OPM - Conclusion" style.
    We had our nicely sortable list of variables and assignments. It looks cool and works quite well.
    However, test coverage analysis reports conclude that we have not tested the attributes since we didn't test for the "uncertain" path. Of course, our variables can never be "uncertain"! To some degree, the test coverage report is wrong, but I understand that the generated rule is an if-then-else rule and not a straight assignment...
    Thoughts? Is there a better way to do the variable assignment in Excel? Should we just live with it? Should we create a mock test with all our variables overridden to be "uncertain" or should we do something else?

    Sorry for the very late reply here, but I'm afraid the structure you have created is just not well handled by the coverage analysis because it compiles into a rule with an unreachable condition. This is normally harmless but the coverage analysis isn't smart enough to ignore it. I've raised a bug (OPAD-7096) to track this in our internal system.

  • BW7.0 workbooks precalculation without Portal installation

  • Install Workbook Precalculation Service

    Hello,
    I am trying to install the workbook precalculation service locally on my PC, but did not succeed up to now.
    I have installed the following on my PC:
    - Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1
    - SAP Gui 6.40 (with extra patches)
    - BW Workbook Precalculation Service (downloaded via the SAP Marketplace)
    Allready installed:
    - Windows XP
    - Microsoft Excel 2000
    After these installations I created a 'precalculation server' via transaction rsprecadmin.
    Then I tried to start the service, but it was only started and then immediately stopped afterwards.
    So although all installations seem to be done successfully, I did not succeed in starting this feature.
    Could anyone give me any idea what I might do to get it right?
    regards,
    Jan

    Hi Jan,
    Sorry to not have been of help so far. If I understand correctly, the actual service on your PC is the source of the issue(?) If that's the case, and if the service dies soon after you start it, you may need to check that the UserID is OK to start services. Otherwise, you may just need to reinstall the program.
    If the error is on the SAP side, you may want to confirm the SM59 connection - PREC_TH_PRECALC I think - to test communications.
    Otherwise, this sounds like an issue for SAP Support!
    Hope this is the fix for you.
    Cheers,
    Tim

  • Template declaration error when variable assigned is the same as variable declared

    Hi Fedor,
    In comm-central repository, when compiling mozilla/mfbt/Compression.cpp using -std=c++11, it results in an error as follows:
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 400: Error: Unexpected type name "T" encountered.
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 400: Error: value is not defined.
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 400: Error: No direct declarator preceding ">".
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 400: Error: A declaration does not specify a tag or an identifier.
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 400: Error: Default template argument cannot be specified on the definition of a class template member that appears outside of its class.
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 400: Error: Templates can only declare classes or functions.
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 413: Error: No primary specialization for partial specialization NegateImpl<T, 0>.
    "../dist/include/mozilla/CheckedInt.h", line 416: Error: Too many arguments for template mozilla::detail::NegateImpl<T>.
    8 Error(s) detected.
    After a check on the file CheckedInt.h, it was narrowed down to the following code that resulted in the failure (the variable assigned, isSigned is the same as variable being declared) :
    template<typename T, bool IsSigned = IsSigned<T>::value>
    struct NegateImpl;
    This code, however compiles without problems in gcc-4.8.
    A workaround was to use a different variable declared in the template (e.g. bool IsTSigned = IsSigned<T>). But I just wanted to be sure whether is this a bug in 12.4 Beta or whether coding rules in templates do allow this kind of declaration? Kindly advise. Thanks.
    Regards,
    Brian

    Hi Steve,
    The declaration made below is not valid when -std=c++11 is not used (it causes the same compile-time errors when using July Refresh):
    template<typename U> class IsSigned;
    template<typename T, bool IsSigned = IsSigned<T>::value>
    struct NegateImpl;
    So far, the workaround was to use a different variable declared in the template (e.g. bool IsTSigned = IsSigned<T>).

  • Command buttons to Assign Query / Query view with variables on Workbooks

    Hi experts,
    We want to have a workbook with buttons that will change the Query/Query view displayed in the unique grid we have.
    We've included command buttons on a workbook, as "<b>Data Provider Specific Command</b>" and chose the Queries, selecting the "<b>Assign Query / Query View</b>" option.
    When using queries without variables or just SAP exit variables it works perfectly, clicking the buttons change the table displayed accordingly. But when using queries that have at least one variable, in our test to select time interval, it doesn't work anymore.
    In our test, we're using just 2 queries and they have the same input variable (to select months interval); but when clicking the button no change/error occurs.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Here is one approach - Keep three analysis items in the WT. Assign three different data providers to all three analysis items. If you do not want to show any query when the WT first loads, don't assign any query to the data providers. When a button is pushed, you can use the command SET_DATA_PROVIDER_PARAMATERS to assign a query to a DP so that that query will show up.
    Other commands that will help you would be SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS using which you can hide analysis items and also, you can use the command BACK_TO_INITIAL_DP_STATE on data providers so that they do not show up if they were blank at the start.
    Another way to hide a query is to assign the analysis item to a data provider which is blank.
    For your requirements, you will have to put multiple commands behind each button - you can decide which of the above commands suit you best.
