Variable Screen (F4 Popup) masterdata attribute column count

Hi Experts,
I need to show 5 columns in variable popup screen but more than 3 columns can be accessed with scrollbar only. How can I increase column count in F4 popup screen?
You can find example screenshot in this link: [Screenshot|http://g.imagehost.org/view/0766/soru]
Thanks in advance,
Ergin

Hi,
I think there is no customizing for variable screen possible eg scroll bars, title.
See:

  • How to set up web variable screen for filtering by attributes

    Hi out there,
    My problem deals with the query variable selection screen in the web. I would like to filter some variables by their attributes in the same way it is done in the navigation item, but in the selection screen I have only the characteristic values in the F4 help available. Is there a way to adjust or extend the selection screen so that I can also filter by attributes (without having to modify the corresponding ABAP Class)?
    By the way this functionality exists for selection screen in BEx, so why doesn't it exist in the web?
    I'd appreciate any idea.
    thanx,
    Heiko

    The most direct way to do this is modifying the principal infoobject and make this attribute as NAVIGATIONAL.....this allows you to see this attribute as a characteristic in Query Designer and you could use it with a filter....
    I hope this helps you

  • Dynamic Creation of Columns based on Date from variable screen

    Hi Experts,
    Is it possible to create the Columns dynamically?
    My requirement is,
    for eg if the user selects the dates from 23Aug2008 to March2010 in variable screen, then in the output I should be able to drilldown and see the individual months data i.e., from Aug2008 to March2010 (20 columns).
    If the user selects March2009 to November2009 (9 columns)
    Is it possible to display in output like this?
    Is it possible to create columns dynamically(based on the period selected) in the output?
    Kindly help.

  • RRI Problem : Variable Screen Popup while Jumping  to Target Query

    While jumping from Source to Target query (both are BEx queries), Variable Entry Screen of the Source is popping Up again during Jump, which after pressing Execute (F8) without entering any values, displaying Target Query results correctly. My Target query is having one and only variable on Inv Doc Num of type Replacement Path and I am not supposed to get any variable Screen Popup during Jump. How can I suppress this reappearance of Variable Screen??. I have tried with Delete Options etc in RSBBS  Assignment rules and searched for OSS Notes but not succeeded so far. I am on BW3.50 SP20. Any help will be highly appreciated.

    Hi Jr,
    I am not having the same variables in the Target at all. In fact the characteristics for which variable screen appears in the source are not there in target. I mean Posting Date, Billing Month...Etc are not ther in the Traget. In the Source Query Rows, I have Inv. Doc No as one of the Characteristics.No variable is defined for Inv Doc Num in the Source Query.
    I am not getting your question"From which cell..??". If I select any perticular Cell in the Inv Doc Result Rows of the Source Output, During Jump it will return only the details of that particular invoice only? Is itn't?. But I want details of all those invoices, that appesrs in the Source Output. That is why, I am selecting my Jump target from the GOTO botton (Red Arrow like Symbol in BEx Tool Bar), and choosing my Target.
    Thanks

  • Bex 3.5 : hide variable screen popup running SAPBEXrefresh

    Hi all,
    We need to create a simple tool specifying a file list of excel workbooks containing queries to be refereshed.
    Thanks to the doc of "boeke" and the precious Peter Knoer's posts, I've done the following :
    > log on BW,
    then for each workbook in the specified file list,
    > open workbook,
    then for each query of the opened workbook ,
    > get Variables from the "SAPBEXqueries" worksheet
    > Run SAPBEXsetVariables ("Memory and reuse variable values" option is ticked on)
    > Run SAPBEXrefresh
    ..and so on
    Everything works fine, except that each time the SAPBEXrefresh runs, the variable screen pops up with the "free caracteristics" input. I've nothing to input in there : and if click on the run button (F8), it continues correctly.
    How can I get rid off this variable screen popup from the refresh process ?
    Thanks in advance for all your helps,
    Sylvain

    Hi sylsyl ,
    I guess you need variable screen at starting level. but when you refrest result set it should not show.
    if it is the requirement, you will have two different buttons to refresh.
    1) variable refresh
    2) normal refresh
    Instead of using normal resfresh you might use variable refresh.
    so please use normal refresh. it will be solved.

  • Variable screen performance in report

    In my project we are having  somany master data objects,
    we have to find the performance of selection screen ,earlier we have only display as selection screen  as key now according to our client requirment we are providing both key and text in sleection screen with long text , how can i find these master data objects performance in variable screen.
    The SAP std out of the box setting for an Infoobject is usually the key.( Sometimes text )
    We are now making changes to almost all info objects to display as key and text, and depending on what business is asking we are changing to Long text, medium or short.
    Investigation required
    1)       how does it affect the performance when we do F4 help
    2)       how does it help in search by text
    3)       what difference does it make when searching by key vs text.
    My feel is if we show the key and text , definitely the key comes from Dimension table and the text will be fetched from the text table of the master data attribute
    And hence for business partner etc it might really affect the time taken to fetch the variable values.
    please help how to find the performance of variables.

    Yeah, It won't have much impact on the performance of the selection screen.......
    Even we are displaying both key and text for many reports but never faced a performance issue.......

  • Variable screen performance in BEx - post upgrade to BI7

    Hello,
    We have recently upgraded to BI7 - SP16.  We are using the 710 gui, patch level 3.  Bex version is 3.5, patch level 6.
    Since we have upgraded, we have been experiencing a major performance hit when opening the variable screen of a query, as well as navigating within the variable screen.  We are using the Excel version of BEx.
    When we were on 3.5, opening the variable screens only took about 5 seconds, now it takes 30.  To use F4 for the dropdown lists, in 3.5 it took about 3 seconds, now it takes 15.  To enter multiple selections, it took 1 second, in BI7 it takes 15. 
    Our users, needless to say are getting very frustrated with the performance.  The query execution time is comparable to when we were on 3.5.
    I have this open as a high priority issue with sap, but they have yet to come up with a fix. 
    Has anyone else experienced this?  Any suggestions? 
    Thanks
    Charla

    Hi

    I think note 1044219 is important for you:
    1. The BEx Web Analyzer executes queries before the system displays the variable dialog. This cannot be avoided.
    2. You cannot prevent the BEx Web Analyzer from saving variables in the workbook and using them again when you reopen it.
    Additional it includes other notes and hints regarding performance in variable screen and F4 help.

  • Variable screen is taking too much time for some reports

    Hi all,
    We are using a sales billing cube for our billing reports . For one query , variable screen takes lot of time to come , i have in RSRT , i have generated the reoprt there and also executed the report there , it s fine there.Morever iam not using any customer exit variable for this.
    Can anybody suggets me whats is the exact problem;

    How I can improve further. Will it be good enough if I create Indexes on the columns for the temp table and try.or what If I use derived tables??
    I suggest you start with index tuning.  Specifically, make sure columns specified in the WHERE and JOIN columns are properly indexed (ideally clustered or covering, and unique when possible).  Changing outer joins to inner joins is appropriate
    if you don't need outer joins in the first place.

  • Quick Functions, export to Excel and variable screen pop up do not function

    We have put the following in place in our environment.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/45/2f76471ca96d7be10000000a114a6b/content.htm
    Integrating into an SAP NetWeaver 2004 Portal (SAP EP 6.0).
    The creation of the iview using the SAP BW Report iview template using version SAP NetWeaver BI (7.0) is successfull and the report is generated correctly. The problem occurs when we try to use the Quick Function - Export to Excel. At this point nothing happens. Another example is when we access the context menu and try to access the variable screen there are no popups. When the report is executed on our SAP EP 7.01 system the same reports functions properly. I am operating with all authorization so I believe this is not the issue. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

  • Variable screen not refreshing

    I get the variable popup when I run this particular report. If I put in my selection in the variables and run the query, I get my reselts.
    However, when I click on the refresh button to bring back the variable popup to run the query again, I am missing the variables I selected previously. When i run the report, I still see the same selections as before.
    It seems there is some kind of caching. Am I correct? How do I resolve this?
    i have tried generating the report. I tried $SYNC.
    Can you help, please

    Jimi,
    You will have to mmake the variable mandatory and not optional and that way when you refresh your query in BeX , the variable screen pops up again.
    In WAD there is a setting called " Force Variable Input" which will do the trick for you.

  • Force Variable screen with Web Templates

    We are on SP7 and have made the necessary settings based on note 950463, however the variable screen only pops up the first time you click the "New Analysis" button.  If you click the button again, and select a query with optional variables, the variable screen does not show up.  I've tried setting the default parameters in the IMG and in the portal iview to always pass the parameter VARIABLE_SCREEN=X along with making the necessary modifications to our default web template, but none of this has worked. Has anyone else come accross this?
    Message was edited by: Ravi Patel

    Hey,
    Below is a version of the web analyzer I created with the following changes:
    1. Variable screen will always open on subsequent calls to the "New Analysis" button, even for optional variables.
    2. A button for refresh. This button basically calls the variable screen. If no variables exist, then this will just refresh, but if variables do exist, this launches the variable screen and then refreshes, similar to the refresh used within the 3.x Bex Analyzer...
    3. A button for "Back to Start" which takes you to the inital state of the web application.
    4. A button for "Back" which will take you back one navigation state. Hope this code helps!
    Cheers,
    Prakash

  • Copy-paste values from excel sheet into variable screen of SAP BI 7.0 query

    Hello
    Report has selection by material in the variable screen. Users would like to to run a report for a set of materials (100+ items). He wants to copy-paste materials into material variable to avoid manual entry.
    I know its impossible. Are thee any ways to allow user not to enter this materials manually and run the report.
    Set of materials can change over the time.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You might want to try with a text file (.txt).. place all the 100+ values into a text file.. like the notepad.. make sure you have only one column with all these number.. no headers or no blank spaces in the beginning..
    then, in the variable (variable should have been defined as "select options" or "multiple single values"), if you can go the screen where we can make multiple entries, we will have an option to import from a file.. and select the text file you have created above.. then all the 100+ values will be imported..
    we do this all the time..

  • F4 Input Help in Variable Screen takes about 30 Minutes to display.

    Hello Experts,
    We have a web-report in which the time taken to display all the entries in F4 Input Help of the variable screen takes about 30 minutes. Have anyone experienced so long a wait time while accessing F4 Input Help in the variable screen and is there anything that we can do to reduce this wait time.
    Thanks

  • Input help in variable screen

    Hi,
    I'm having a query on top of 0EMPLOYEE. 0EMPLOYEE has an attribute of a business unit (which has the default BEx settings of display as text) and I have a selection option variable on top of this attribute.
    Previously, on BW 3.x the variable screen used to show both the key and text, regardless of the settings in the BEx tab of the infoobject definition. in BEx Web JAVA it will only let me have the text selection. is it possible to change that without changing the default settings in the BEx tab of the infoobject definition?
    Tomer.
