Variable in the report agent.

Hai All,
I have used a variable in the report agent to run a query in the background. The variable I used already incrementing dates automatically when the report is executed on the web. Do I need to make anymore other setting in the report agent for this variable or Is it going to be fine.
Thanks, Vijay.

Anil, Ravi,
Thanks for your advise. When I created the variant in the webtemplate the date range is feb1 to feb28. But the Date range for the query changed to march1 to march1.
After I scheduled the package, when run rsrt with statistics for FEB I see all 0's in the statistics and for march I see some count in the statistics. Will this be okay? When run using the process chain this will take right dates?.
In the Agent settings, under filtering I am using 'No Filtering'. If I click on 'explicit thru query rslt then there is variant. Do I need to take this route?
Thanks for your help in this regard, Vijay.

Query Stripping not working properly when using variable in the report

We have issue with WEBI document that have query stripping enable.
Once the query stripping enabled there is no data return in the report.
We have investigate on the problem, the query stripping function are notable to retrieve objects that indirectly used in the report
as we have
many variable in the reports.
Ex.
Var1 = object1 + object2
Var2 = Object3 + Object4
Var3 = Var1 + Var2
Var4 = Object1 + Object2 + Object3 + Object4
If we use only Var3 in the report, the object1,2,3,and 4 will not be
retrieve.
But if we are using Var4 in the report, the object1,2,3,and 4 will be
retrieve properly.
Please let me know is it a by-design behavior, if yes please share points on it

Hi Amit,
Thank you for response, however i already had alook on that VIdeo and it tells us about the basic enabling of query stripping.
But my question is when we have a Variable in a report which is dependent on the other two variables it gives me #error so is it by design or not.

How to use customer exit variable in the report

Dear All,
i want to use a standard customer exit variable in the report properties.
In the Bex Query Designer right hand bottom you will find two buttons "Properties" and "Task". Click on task you will get different option. Choose properties from there and then select "variable sequence tab".
I need to add a standard variable there. How can i achieve it?
Appreciate your early help.

You need to add variable to corresponding charctertic then you can get that varaible for sorting the sequence....
If 0CUST is the varaible then you need to assign it 0CUSTOMER then 0CUST will be available for the sequence.

Userexit variables in the report designer

I want to use a query with userexit variables where 1 variable is derived from another variable in the report designer. This does not seem to work, behavious seems to be as follows:
1) when variables are derived from other variables they are filled in step 2 of the variable userexit. Variables filled in step 2 have no effect on the query: everything is selected
2) if the derived variables are mandatory, they even cause a dump saying the variable is empty
3) if variables are filled in step 1 (thus before the selection screen), they do impact the selection. The problem is that step 1 is too early to have access to the other variables.
How can I derive variables from other variables when using the report designer?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Best Regards,
Filip Ledoux

Hi,
For example if you want use value from variable ZVAR_02 (manual entry) in variable ZVAR_01 (user exit) you can use similar code:
DATA: L_S_RANGE TYPE RSR_S_RANGESID.
DATA: LOC_VAR_RANGE LIKE RRRANGEEXIT.
CASE I_VNAM.
   WHEN 'ZVAR_01'.
    IF I_STEP = 2.
      READ TABLE I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
           WITH KEY VNAM = 'ZVAR_02'.
      IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
        CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
        L_S_RANGE-LOW      = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW.
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN     = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT      = 'EQ'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDCASE.
Variable ZVAR_01 shouldn't be ready to input.

Unable to see substituion variable in the reporting studio

Hi,
I have added substitution variable to the reporting studio the variable name I gave as var1
and value as 2009,but I am unable to see the substitution variables in my reporting studio.
What can be the reason for it?
Thanks

Hello,
you have to quote the value because it doesnt start with a letter.
Every Value which you had to put in quotes in an Calc Script or Member Formula or so, you have to quote in FR Studio too. Planning accepts the value without quotes, FR Studio doesnt.

Use of the Export while creating Exceptions in the Reporting Agent

hi all,
can anyone let me know how the Follow Up Action "Export" is used while creating Exceptions under the Reporting Agent.
I understand that for the data that was precalculated to be used as a work item in a customer Workflow, it first needs to be exported using the business Add Ins (SE19). i have created the Business add In "RSRA_ALERT" and have also set a filter according to the InfoArea and activated it.
But once, the package is scheduled and completed, wherefrom will i check the result and how do i check whether that data has been exported or not.
Kindly let me know at the earliest.
Thanks & regards

How can I display a formula variable in the report?

Hi,
I have a requirement to display a formula variable value in the report. When the user runs a report this variable value should be called once and displayed below the report title or in a specified cell. Is it possible something like this could be done? if yes, can someone tell me how can I achieve this functionality. I appreciate your time and effort with points.
Thanks,
Rao.

Hi Bhanu,
In the query properties you can only see text variables and not the formula variables. If I define my number of working days as text variable and I can display in the report. However, I need to use this variable in some calculation in the report, so it has to be formula variable in order to use in calculations. I appreciate your input with points.
Thanks,
Rao.

Using Presenation Variables in the Report fields

Hi,
I have a report and the report format is column a (01/01/2012-01/31/2012), Column B (02/01/2012-02/29/2012), Column c (amount),Column d (amount),Column e (dimnesion)
these are my report columns.column a and column b are dateranges.one is lastmonth and the other one is current month.we put this report in the dashboard.I have 4 presentation variables 2 for last month begin and end dates and 2 for current month begin and end dates.so whenever i change thses variables column a and column b values also should changes according to the dates in the dashboard prompt..Is this possible??

Hi,
I am sorry, If I could not get you correct, but I think you would like the starting date in the reports to be between "startdate beginning" and "start date ending" variables. In this case, you can always put a filter on the column in the report to be between these two variables.
Hope this is what you are looking for.
Thank you,
Dhar

BeX: Select option for the variable of the report in Portals

Hi Gurus,
In the variable selection screen of the BW reports, I have 'Employee Number' field tab. I have some 3000-4000 employee numbers in a file daily. Generally, I use the option "upload from a file/clipboard" in the multiple selection dialog box that you get after clicking the "more" button.
But the users report only in the Portals, where this option is not available. They do not want to use BeX reporting rather.
what should be done to achieve the same functionality in Portals ?
Any solutions or hints please....?
Points will be awarded.....

There are a hundred ways to implement what you are asking. The hard part is deciding which one would be the best for you.
What adapter are you using to communicate with TestComplete? ActiveX? Is TestComplete running asynchronously (in parallel)? If so then how is the data getting back to TestStand?
So here are some options:
1. You can use the While Step type. It's in the Flow Control folder in your Step Types pallette. Look in your examples under UsingFlowControlSteps.seq in the SequenceFlow
2. You can loop on a step and have the termination for the loop be (return value == 30). Look in the Step Properties under Looping. Also in the TestStand help
3. You could do Post Actions based on a condition and have it jump to another step. Read about it in the TestStand Reference Manual.
4. You could use a GoTo step. I don't really recommend this one. It makes code hard to maintain. Also an example in SequenceFlow called gotobeep.seq.
Hopefully this gets you thinking. Let me know if you have specific questions about any of these methods.
