Variable screen button/link

Hi
I want to add a simple "hyperlink" in my WAD, calling up the variable screen again (instead of right clicking and going via enhanced menu to "variables entry".
Sounds simple, but what it the html code for that ?
Regards
Torben

Hi Deepak:
Thanks for your suggestion.
I have also implemented that to fill in the value for one variable. However, if the variable has been filled, the variable screen are not shown.
Then, it is just a one shot run.
I have also tested that trough the context menu option, but the works the same. If the variable is empty, the variable screen comes up. If the variable has been filled, the current screen are just refreshed.
<b>Could you/someone tell me what is going on?</b>
Best regard

    Hi Josef,
    My Default view is fine.
    User can see
    -     Plant
    -     BA
    -     PH 1
    -     PH 2
    -     PH 3
    -     PH 4
    User can enter any of these PH Levels and enter the layout. Once they are in the layout I have provided with the variable screen button on top of the Tabs. My Container Layout is like this (Rows Cell Floating)ROW 1 Buttons and Row 2 Tabs.
    So when the Click on the Row one Button (Variable Screen) the Variable Entry is opened and it is the same order as Default View but on top if the Variable Entry I see this Error message on Top of this Screen (Please select a Valid InfoObject).
    But I did try your option having to separate Container Layout. Still I see this message on top of the Variable screen.  which i am trying to get rid

  • How to show a variable screen when clicking on direct link of report in ,when that report is used as target in RRI alsoRRI

    Hi All,
    I have created RRI between two reports and the type is web template/WAD.
    My requirement is to show the variable screen of target report when clicked on direct link and it should not show the var. screen if it goes from jump/go to.
    while currently I can not see var. screen on both the places and when switching the var. scree. display on in web template , it shows the screen at both the places.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks,
    Anu

    Hi Anu,
    "And when I am using another var. in assignment details which is ready for input (in both the queries), its not helping."
    Did you try using such a variable? What kind of a problem do you face? I am sorry I am still trying to understand your problem. I am just saying that which variable you use is not important for the first query. Only in the second query, add a variable with ready for input (I am not sure why the other doesn't work, I just tried and it gave an error, that's why I suggest this) and in RRI connection make the assignment with this variable. Please try this and let me know the result.

  • No variable Screen when accessing web reports via "New analysis" button

    Hello !
    I need some help or explanation :
    I'm on a web report (Java) and i want to access another report.
    I click on the "new analysis" button on the top, then i open the "roles" folder and select a report.
    The new report start but without the prompt screen with the variable selection.
    I also saw that the URL shown on Internet explorer is the old one (not the new querie URL)
    This is the same problem with all my queries when accessing them via the "new analysis" menu.
    Why is this screen squeezed ?
    I need to have these variable entries !
    I've tried some modification on 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN .... (porperties / variable) = no effect
    Thanks for your help.

  • Variable Screen Execute Button

    Hi,
      Is there any possibility to associate Keyboard key 'ENTER' or any key to the Exectute button of the Variable Screen?
      Is that possible to do with Javascript or something?
      Any Ideas?
    Thank you
    AP

    Hi AP,
    I guess you are talking about the variable screen for web reports...I have been on the lookout to associate a keyboard key to the "Enter" button too. But it seems that this is just a table cell designed with CSS to look alike a button...
    One suggested work around is as follows:
    Use a "normal" dropdown-box for variable-input -> https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/.../How%20to%20Use%20a%20Dropdown%20Box%20to%20Set%20Variable%20Values.pdf
    Build a JavaScript-Function in the onSelect-Handler of the dropdown-box and call the WebTemplate you want by SAPBWOpenURL (....)
    So by clicking a var-value the user jumps directly to the WebTemplate. If you have more than 1 var, insert the function in the last dropdown-box.
    However this solution is not viable for a standard web template and hence I have not tried it out.

  • Variable Refresh button in WAD

    Hi All,
    I would like to add a button to a web template so that after I execute the report I would like to click on the button and the variable screen pops up enabling the user to select alternative values.
    I am working in BI 7 and would like to know what command to assign to the button web item or is there a different method to do it?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    This can be done by writing a html code in back end and place a "Refresh" link in the template,

  • WAD / Insert Variable Screen into WAD

    Hi All,
    How can i insert the variable screen into my WAD?
    For example:
    First, when i executed the WAD i need to show (all together in the same page) the variable screen and below the table.
    Regards

    Hi Nicola
    I dont know of a way to display the variable screen in the wad however, an alternative is to use the Information Field web item and tick the variable visible check box in the web item parameters, untick the other 4 items if you only want the variables to display, this will display the current variable selections for the query, you can then have a link item or button that calls the OPEN_VARIABLE_DIALOG command, this will link back to the variable screen but also maintatin the current filters and layout of the query.
    Hope this helps

  • How to change the movie clip a button links to???

    I am working on a website in Flash that had already been
    designed by someone else. There are a number of buttons across the
    website that are linked to the same symbol. Those buttons link to
    movie clips, in the button's actions, that pop up as small windows
    providing more information in regards to the button clicked. The
    problem is that I cannot figure out how to properly change the link
    association between button and movie clip.
    Here is the action script for one of the buttons:
    on (release) {
    _root.scrHEIGHT=100
    _root.scroller.scroller.gotoAndStop(2);
    _root.scroller._x = 100;
    _root.scroller._y = 150.7;
    _root.TM_title = "About Chris Smith";
    _root.READ = 3;
    When I change the number after "root.READ =" it will change
    it to another movie clip but I how do I know what that association
    is based on? For instance if I make a duplicate movie clip how can
    I make the above script link to it? Also, what exactly does that
    last line in the above script mean? When I tested various numbers,
    like 3 and 6, they would link to the same movie clip.
    Please help! This is driving me crazy!
    Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    buttons can be defined with static icon/text, or dynamically via a variable (containing @08\Qtooltip@text for example). You choose the pushbutton type when you define your button using the screen painter. For the dynamic definition, you must tick the "output only" checkbox, enter a global variable name, that you'll fill in your program, preferably using ICON_CREATE function module.

  • F4 input help on Variable screen is not working on Portal

    Dear Experts,
    We are facing one issue when we run the WAD report on portal, variable screen gets hang after clicking on input help button (F4) for couple of variables. We are facing same issues when we run the base queries on portal. But when we run the same base queries in RSRT (Tcode) or in BEx Analyzer we are not facing this issue and able to get the input help screen with values.
    I also have gone through some old posts related to such issues but didn't help much. We are already on SAP BW 7.4 SP Level 008 and for Char IO Query Filter Value setting is kept as "Values in Master Data Table" only. This is a MD IO with Compounding.
    Kindly let me know if anyone has faced such issue.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Nilesh

    Dear Martin,
    There is a no long running work process in the backend and data volume is more in Master Data Table, there are around 19 Lacks records available.
    For BI Java patch and defaultTrace for errors I will check it with BASIS Admin team. Unfortunately I don’t have rights to do same.
    Thanks,

  • Variable screen/variant screen authorization issue

    HI All,
    We have implemented standard Cost Center Overview Report(0SR_C02_Q0002) in BI 7.
    We have three selection fields:
    1.Company Code which is mandatory
    2.My controlling Area which is also mandatory
    3.Costcenter which is not mandatory
    The requirement we are facing over here is that in the Variable screen/variant screen when I enter a company code, then I need to display dynamically only those "My Controlling Area" values which are assigned to that particular company code and not all. In the same way after selecting the appropriate "My controlling area" value, I need to display only those cost centers in the cost center selection field which are assigned to the selected company code and My controlling area combination and not all.
    can anyone guide me on how to go about on this authorization issue at the variable screen itself.
    Please treat this issue/requirement on high priority.
    Appreciated in advance.

    Hi,
    I think that an alternative to solve your concern could be using Web Application Designer (WAD).  In this respect, there are several design options, with different levels of complexity.
    As the simplest alternative, you could create a WAD including your query and three Dropdown Boxes: one for Company, a second for Controlling area and another for Cost center.  The four mentioned elements should be linked to the same dataprovider so, when you select a company, the options in the other two Dropdown boxes and the information in the query are updated.
    In order to enforce mandatory filter selection at Company and Controlling area level, you should set NO_REMOVE_FILTER='X' in both two Dropdown boxes, so that "All values" option -which would mean no filtering- is not offered.
    I hope this helps you.

  • Variable Screen

    Hi,
    Can we show a 'Information Message' on the variable screen for 1 particular query! I have a user exit variable in the query and I believe I can use this user exit variable to show the information message on the varable screen. When we run the query, we should see the variable screen with message on top of it.

    Hi Rahul,
    I doubt the first requirement is possible.
    To have a pop-up message after we click on Print version button, please check these threads:
    Pop Up to be displayed on Export to excel button click
    user specific pop-up system message
    Hope these helps..!

    Paul,
    I have experienced similar issues with the behaviour of variable selection screens e.g. variable screen appears in the Bex Excel version but not the web version. One of our consultants has suggested that the behaviour depends on whether the variables are optional or mandatory, something I've yet to confirm.

  • Variable Screen Does Not Display in Bex Web Analyzer after first time

    We recently upgraded from BW 3.1 to BW 7.0 (without upgrading specifically to 3.5).  We are having a problem with our Web Bex Analyzer not showing the variable screen although the variable screen is displayed successfully when running the same query from the Bex Analyzer.  Based on feedback from other posts regarding similar topics, we modified the 0analysis_pattern template to ensure that Display Variable Screen was checked on.  We are finding that when we open the Web Bex Analyzer and do a New Analysis, the first query we try to run will always have the variable screen displayed successfully.  Any susbsequent queries we try to run by clicking on New Analysis in that same open window will not show the variable screen and will start executing open ended.  This is occurring regardless of whether the query has mandatory or optional variables and we have confirmed that there is no personalization set for the variables being used.  We have tried it with several different queries and the results are consistent.  The first query you run shows the variable screen successfully and any queries run after that do not.  Any help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated as we have exhausted our resources researching and troubleshooting this problem.

    We did open an OSS note and heard back from SAP.  We made the recommended setting, see their response below, but as they stated, it will only show variable screens for queries that have at least one mandatory variable entry after the first query is opened. 
    Response from SAP: 
    Please check if the following setting is made within your template --
    In the 'Standard Actions' of the Web Template, do you have the setting
    'Action Before First Display' set to OPEN_VARIABLE_DIALOG
    The behaviour of the variable screen is different if you use mandatory
    variables and optional variables. If you have only optional variables,
    the Display Variable does not force the variable screen.
    Also, using the parameter VARIABLE_SCREEN=X only influences the
    web application at STARTUP. This would not come into affect when you
    use the 'New Analysis' button. This button resets the dataprovider so
    this would not affect the variable screen and would not redisplay the
    variable screen as you require.
