Variable input values in the query are displayed wrong

Hi experts,
I executed a report and in the variable input screen it asks for a key date and company code.
We entered key date and company code and executed the report.
We want to take a print out of the output. But the variables which we entered in the variable screens are
dispalying wrong. i.e if we have entered company code as gsml and key date as 01.01.2008.
In the report output I am getting as:
Company code: gsml
Keydate: #..27-11-4745
But keydate should be displayed as 01.01.2008
How to solve this ?
Regards,
Nishuv.

Nishuv,
Please follow below steps:
1. Open query through Bex - Query Designer
2. Beneath the Rows Area( where you actually drag in charactertistics), you'll be finding two tabs Filter and Rows/Columns
3. Click on Filter Tab
4.You'll be navigated to a window, there you can trace two Workareas
a. Characteristic Restrictions: Where drag in the relevant Prompts/Input Variables
b. Default Vaules
5.First, Drag the required promts/Input Variables in Characteristics Restrictions.
6.Click on the varible which was dragged in Characteristic Restriction area and drop it into default values area.
7.Now you'll have visibility of variable in two regions, Characteristics and Default Values.
8. Save and Execute the Query

Input values in the result area

Hi Bw gurus,
Could you plz tell me to eliminate the Input values displayed between the Navigation block and the Result area.
I mean if we give some input range in the variable screen the range(Input)values are displayed in the Result area.Also if we give some 1000 multiple single values in the variable selection screen after executing it displyed
1000 input values in the result.
I need to elimeinate this.so how can i do this.
the requirement is very urgent.
Regards,
Rambo.

Hi Rambo,
Open query in BEx Analyzer, it'll be embedded into a workbook.
Use Layout/Dasplay text elements icon or menu path.
There you'll see the option to show variables. Don't use it and variable's values shouldn't show up!
And don't use show all.
Best regards,
Eugene

Images are displayed wrong in firefox

Hello!
I am a photographer, uploading images in png to my gallery at deviantart.com. I noticed that the images are displayed wrongly in firefox - but in IE9 and Opera they are shown correctly. I have tried with different color management settings in about:config but none of that has solved the problem. I would like to know why it is that firefox can't show the colours correctly, like opera and IE?
If it's impossible to fix I will just simply have to stop using firefox which would be a shame when I have been using the browser for many years. The problem has not existed earlier.
Best regards

That image for instance. And I save them using Adobe RGB since thtat's the colour space I work in, but this has never been a problem before.

The correct way to handle this is to use bind variables.
And use DBMS_XMLGEN instead of DBMS_XMLQUERY :
create or replace procedure temp (
p_mtr_id       in varchar2
, p_from_date    in date
, p_through_date in date
is
l_xml   CLOB;
l_query VARCHAR2(2000);
l_ctx   dbms_xmlgen.ctxHandle;
begin
l_query:= 'SELECT

    TO_CHAR(ROUND(a.downcost,2),''$9,999,999.00'') kWh_cost,

How to select all single values in the header area

Dear Experts
I got a request that the user wants to select a single value or all single values in the header area. E.g. if the values from characteristic master data are A, B, C and D, the selection can be one of these values or all of them. With the standard BPS configuration, due to the unique combination in the header area, selection of 'All' single values is not possible. Is there a way to select all single values in the header area?
Thanks, Jessica

Hi Jessica,
Here is a solution where you need not to change your planning layout or to create a new variable or any exit function.
Step 1 - Maintain master data value 'ALL' in the required characteristic.
Step 2 - Create a copy function to copy all the required data records to 'ALL'. you can use standard copy function where you have to include only this characteristic in the fields to be change.
Copy -
From = all values (A,B,C,D etc)
To = "ALL".
Step 3 - Call this function on layout opening. you can include it in the planning folder and change the function attribute to call it on layout opening.
Step 4 - Create a standard Delete function. you have to call this function on save operation. In this function, you have to delete all data records present in the buffer where required char contains 'ALL' value.
This approach can impact the performance of the planning application. It depends on the number of data records you are dealing with. Standard Copy and Delete functions are pretty fast in nature.
I hope it will help you. please let me know if you need more inputs.

Restrict the values in the Query Designer

Hi Gurus,
I want to Restrict PLANT or SALES ORG values in the Query Designer, in the Query, PLANT has selected in the rows and having variable and SALES ORG is display attribute of the PLANT. In this scenario How can we Restrict the values?
Thanks in Advance,
Ravi.

Hi Ravi,
You cannot restrict values on the display attributes. Better change it to navigational attribute and check the box as navigational in the cube.

CHAR's value in the query but not in the report??

Hi all,
I loaded master data and crm transaction data from ODS to Cube. The data is in the cube but there is no value in my report when running it. EX: there are some CHARs in my report, I checked those CHARs have value in the query but it shows 'not assign' in my report when I run it. What happen?
Thanks.
J.

Please see below text and also the sent link..
If a navigation attribute is used in an aggregate, this aggregate has to be adjusted using a change run as soon as new values are loaded for the navigation attribute (when master data for the characteristic belonging to the navigation attribute is loaded.) This change run is usually one of the processes that are critical to the system performance of a production BW system. This is why, by avoiding using navigation attributes or not using navigation attributes in aggregates, you can improve the performance of this process. On the other hand, not using navigation attributes in aggregates can lead to poor query response times. The data modeler needs to find the right balance.

How to add customize message on the variable selection screen in the query

Hi all,
Can we add an customise message on the variable selection screen in the query? If yes please let me know how it can be achevied?
Thanks,
Rani

Hi Rani,
I faced a similar issue (for what I understand your request is).
My requirement for the Variable Screen was to do:
1) place a link to a ppt file
2) remove buttons "Save", "Save As...), "Delete"... the standard buttons come when running the Query or WebTempl
We were using a Web Templ for BI7.0
I struggled trying to find out how to do it. My conclusions are:
- WAD, not sure we can accomplish it using a Web Template but i did not "play" a lot with the Web_Template Properties in order to know
- XHTML, I was told in my post HTML modification was the way, but I have close to nil background in HTML and couold not find the way of accessing the Variable Entry screen
For instance, I had to remove similar buttons and change some font size from a link on the Web Template (WAD), which was pretty straight forward. In WAD the buttons come with its own icon and to increase the Font size for that link we used XHTML (<font size="2" >). But the heck of the variable screen...well, i just did not get trhough to it to modify it in any way.
Good luck,
Definetly in a Query I would say that no.

Why does the Query Result display "X" as a result

Hello All,
I have a query in which there are 6 Characteristics and 1 calculated key figure. But when the query is executed the query result displays as "X" in the column against all the 6 characteristics.
Can anybody provide solution as to why the result displays "X" as a result.
Regards,
Vikram

Hello all,
Everybody answered it correctly. But when i debugged the query, i did not get any calculation which is getting divided by 0 and there were no mixed units of measurements. Probably it was an erroneous transport earlier. I only created and request again and transported the query from dev and the query is running fine.
Thanks everybody.

While drilling up/down the report, the results are displayed after delay

We have a WebI Report whose hierarchy is based on the time Year -> Quarter -> Month -> Day -> Hour -> 30 mins.
While drilling up/down the report, the results are displayed after much delay and most of the time, all / some of the values are displayed as "#REFRESH" or '##########'. However, if i refresh it, all the values are displayed.
What could be the cause for this issue? and how to troubleshoot it?
Thanks In Advance!!!

hi,
This error appears in cells due to smart measures when the value returned by the smart measure is not available. This occurs when the grouping set containing the value is not available with the data provider.
Remove the error by refreshing the data.

Passing values to the TEXT AREA in .HTML page.

Hi,
I have data in internal table and in context node in custom CRM component.
I want to display this data in the textarea field. Is it possible to display this data in the text area? Should we use JAVASCRIPT for this one?
Can anyone please give me the smaple code for passing the values to the text area?
Please help me.
Regards,

Hi Pushpa,
You can set the internal table values to the text area field using SET_PROPERTY method .
Check for the context node in which that text field is there ,then get that context nodes current entity .Next set required values to that text area field.

How to get and disply dynamic values on the fly and display in applet

hello all ,
i have a problem in refreshing a applet.
i have a scrolling applet which will get the share values from the database and display in a scrolling applet in the browser . i am getting the values and displaying it.
but the problem is , if i enter a new record in the database, until and unless i press refresh button of the browser, i am not getting the new values . please help me if anybody having the idea. please mail me to [email protected]
thank you all.

You want a database update to trigger an applet refresh? Can't be done.
However, you can have the applet periodically re-query the database and update its display with the information it retrieves. Just kick off a Thread that sleeps for a bit, wakes up, queries the db, updates the display, and goes back to sleep.

How can i pass the Input value to the sql file in the korn shell ??

Hi,
How can i pass the Input value to the sql file in the korn shell ??
I have to pass the 4 different values to the sql file and each time i pass the value it has to generate the txt file for that value like wise it has to generate the 4 files at each run.
can any one help me out.
Raja

Can you please more elaberate., perhaps you should more elaberate.
sqlplus is a program. you start it from the korn shell. when it's finished, processing control returns to the korn shell. the korn shell and sqlplus do not communicate back and forth.
so "spool the output from .sql file to some txt file from k shell, while passing the input parameters to the sql file from korn shell" makes no sense.
