Variable Vlaue restriction in a query

Hi,
I have an order type variable (0COORD_TYPE) as a part slection criteria in the query .
The Requirement is
I want to have the variable for order type have a default that excludes the certain order types ,BUT the user can change to include if they want.
I want to to exculde all the order types starting with J or A , cannot use the exclude statement as it impacts the perfomance of the query .
Please prvovide a detailed solution .
Your time & efforts are greatly appreciated .
Thank You

Hi,
You can create two variables on order type. One is User Entry and the other one is Customer Exit. You have to read your user entry in customer exit variable and if there are entries you can pass those entries as filter. Suppose User doesn't enter any entries you can pass the default entries to be included in query.

Creating Restrictions in BEx query designer for (1-a), where a is variable.

Dear All,
>> Suppose for the variable in the BEx query designer, I've created restriction for 0FISCPER to the variable 0P_PER (as 0P_PER-1) by right clicking 0P_PER3, from that a dialog box appears. In that I've selected 0P_PER3 and then clicked on offset variable and when I set the offset variable, it works for (0P_PER-1.etc, 0P_PER+1,etc..)
But if I want to have (1-0P_PER), then plz tell me how to define this restriction?
Plz explain me the steps to perform (1-0P_PER) restriction in BEx query designer in BW1.
I'm using SAP BI 7.2 gui.
Expecting your reply soon,
with Regards,
Jerald

My requirement is that I want to have " 1-fiscal year"., But this I could not define using offset variables, since using offset we can define "fiscal year +1" or "fiscal year -1".
So there would be some other way to define "1-fiscalyear". So Please help me to define "1-fiscalyear" by giving me the steps.
Thank you,

How to Get Value from a Variable to restrict a Key Figure ?

I am trying to make a query in Query designer, we are running BI7.
I have a user entry veriable on the Fiscal year period, the user will need to enter a period they want the report for, i.e. 07.2008 for July 2008 report and 04.2008 for April 2008 report.
Based on what the user entered as the starting period (in the variable entry), I have to then use that initial value and show the Year to date value (of sales etc) in the next column.
To Clarify, if user entered 07.2008 then all the data from 01.2008 to 07.2008 needs to be in the next column.   if user entered 04.2008 then all the data from 01.2008 to 04.2008 should be in the next column.
So to summarise according to my understanding, I want to get the value from a variable and pass it onto another variable to restrict a key firgure (sales amount)...
Can someone please clarify what i need to do here?
Many thanks in advance, points will be awarded accordingly.

hi,
please follow the below steps:
1. Create a new varialbe , this variable should be processed by customer exit.
2. In the column section, create a new column and drag the sales key figure, also drag fiscal year period and restrict with the new variable.
3. In the cmod tcode write a customer exit code to extract the value of the user entry and assign it your variable, you can refer to the below code.
WHEN '< New VAR name>'.
    IF I_STEP = '2'.                                 "AFTER THE POPUP
      LOOP AT I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
        WHERE VNAM = '<Fiscal Year Period VAR Name>'.
        CLEAR L_S_RANGE.
        L_S_RANGE-LOW      = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW(4).
        L_S_RANGE-LOW+4(3) = '001'.
        L_S_RANGE-HIGH     = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW.       "LOW E.G. 2001006
        L_S_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
        L_S_RANGE-OPT = 'BT'.
        APPEND L_S_RANGE TO E_T_RANGE.
        EXIT.
      ENDLOOP.
    ENDIF.
For ex- if the user enters 008/2008, this code will create as range assign 001/2008 - 008/2008 value to the variable.
hope it helps,

Authorization variables are used by each query

Hi,
I am working with BW 3.5. I need to check how many authorization variables are used by each query.
Is the any table which shows this?
I know in RSZGLOBV i can display all the Auth. Variable at the system but i don't have such relation with the queries...
Thanks in advance,
F

Hi,
Get the UID of your query from the query designer (select query in the properties window, goto Advanced tab).
Pass it to table RSZELTXREF (pass query UID to field SELTUID and 'VAR' to field LAYTP). This gives the list of variables used in the query. Now got to table RSZGLOBV, pass all the variable IDs (field values for TELTUID from table RSZELTXREF) to the field VARUNIID and restrict VPROCTP to '6'. This gives a list of all the auth variables used in a query.

Preselection-variable (replacment-path: replacement with query)

Hello Expert's
Can you explain me, how we can set up a pre-query with characteristics and key figures.
e.g.
Due the performace reason in the olap process, we have the calculate a range of values before
in query 1. This query contains characteristics and key figures.
In the query 2 we've preselection-variable (replacment-path: replacement with query) to query 1.
My question is, how we can get also the key figures-values from query 1, to continue to use the values for query 2?
Thanks for feedbacks,
Regards

Hi,
As this is the variable restriction and variable restrictions are not put on key figure values (except RKF). As I know you will not be able to get key figure values using replacemtn path with query.

Durgesh.

How to feed a query using a variable defined as Replacement Path-Query

Scenario description : BI NetW 2004S - InfoCube with the following characteristics Customer, OrderDate, OrderYear and the following KeyFigure Number of Pieces.
Objective: I need a query "QB" that shows how many pieces a set of customers has ordered in the year 2008. The set of customers is defined as all customers that in the previous years (the user can select one or more years) have ordered more than 500 pieces within the same year.
Implementation: In general terms the idea is to build a query "QB" with the characteristic "Customer" that is restricted (filtered) using a variable that is fed by another query "QA" (Replacement Path-Query).
In order to have the selection of customers that for each of previous years (2007, 2006, 2005,...) have ordered more than 500 pieces, in the query "QA":
- I put OrderYear as filter and defined a variable in order to ask the user which year/s he wants to analyse to define the selection
- I put Customer and OrderYear in row
- I put the KeyFigure Number of Pieces in column
- I've defined the following condition: Number of Pieces > 500 with the option Caracteristic Assignment = All Characteristics in the Drilldown Indipendently
Now if I run the query "QA" it works correctly showing me all customers that in the selected years have ordered more than 500 pieces within of the same year.
If I run the query "QB" it shows a correct result only if I enter only one year (for example 2006) in the OrderYear field (coming from the query "QA"); if I enter more than one year (for example 2006 and 2007) the selection of customers showed is not the same defined by the first query "QB": I was expecting to see all customers defined from the first query less all customers that have no ordered any piece in 2008.
Questions
1) Why is query "QA" working on a different selection of customers when the user selects more than one year?
2) Cosidering the scenario and the objective described above do you have any other idea?
Thanks
Ciao
Roberto

Hi Christophe,
it's ok for me if I consider the customer only once in the final selection of customers that feeds the final query, this is my objective.
However as test I've created 2 "input" queries, one related to 2006 and one related to 2007, and then in my destination query I've tried to restrict the customer using 2 variables of type replacement path-query (one attached to the 2006 query and one attached to the 2007 query). Unfortunately when I try to check and save the destination query, Query Designer tells me it is not possible to restrict the characteristic in this way.
Could you please describe me steps you run in to order to restrict a characteristic using more than one variable of type replacement path-query?
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Ciao,
Roberto

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.

Copying Variables in BPEL using XPath Query

Hi,
I am new to BPEL and i want to know if it is possible to copy data from one variable to another using XPath Query in the <from> <to> tags, when the two variables are of different message types.
I am trying to create a sample BPEL that would receive a String through the receive tag tied to one partner link (WSDl) and then invoke a different webservice using the <invoke> tag tied to another partner link (WSDL) by passing the received variable.
I have pasted the BPEL File and the two WSDl files involved.
My Issue is that when I send a soap request to the BPEL, it is passed as null to the webservice invoked.
Probably because the copy tags don't work.
Please help.

Can you please help me to achive this task through some SQL command like ALTER USER etc...
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your help.It sounds like you are really trying to solve a performance problem with the view. I agree with Justin that the solution to restrict access to the view dynamically sounds unwieldy.
Consider tuning the view, or perhaps the query using the view. Post the view and see if anyone can help you tune it.

I can choose data from firt to last Journal Entry.
What can I do when I what show data only from 2009 year?
Thanks in advance

Hello
I am suggest to use FInancial Period from / To instead of booking dates, if it is possible. I mean if you need month end closing dates, it would work fine.
If you need dates, why are you using list, not dates as parameters?

How to update bind variable and restrict values in a Model Driven LOV?

Hi Guys,
Using JDev 11.1.1.2.0
I've recreated an excellent Frank Nimphius article about restricting values derived from a model driven LOV (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/44-restrict-lov-169186.pdf)
But my bind variable isn't updating. Deleting the bind variable gets me the entire LOV. Activate the code below and insert a bind variable into the where clause like Frank says and I get nothing back. Bind variable is blank. Any ideas? Code wasn't supplied with the article. It seems simple enough but the bind variable isn't updating in the SQL, even though the updated value shows up here...
public void onLovLaunch(LaunchPopupEvent launchPopupEvent)
    BindingContext bctx = BindingContext.getCurrent();
    BindingContainer bindings = bctx.getCurrentBindingsEntry();
    FacesCtrlLOVBinding lov = (FacesCtrlLOVBinding)bindings.get("DepartmentId");
    lov.getListIterBinding().getViewObject().setNamedWhereClauseParam("deptId","60");
    System.out.println("lov name: " + lov.getName().toString());
    System.out.println("lov Param Attrs: " + lov.getListIterBinding().getViewObject().getNamedWhereClauseParams().getAttribute("deptId").toString());
    System.out.println("lov View Object: " + lov.getListIterBinding().getViewObject().getName().toString());
    System.out.println("lov IterBinding: " + lov.getListIterBinding().getName().toString());
   }Gets me ...
lov name: DepartmentId
lov Param Attrs: 60
lov View Object: _LOCAL_VIEW_USAGE_lov_model_queries_EmployeesView_DepartmentsView
lov IterBinding: DepartmentIdList_2

That's a good idea, but it's still not working. Here is how I implemented it. It might be different from your suggestion as I'm still pretty new to this.
I have a recursive tree table. You select a node. You then click a button which calls the listener below. "findParents" is a method call to the AppModuleImpl class and it finds all parent nodes of your selection. "restrictPartBomLOV", also of the AppModuleImpl class, then modifies the model driven lists' View Object (partBomLOV) to exclude those parent node values.
The resulting model driven LOV on the popup should be updated, yeah? But it still isn't udpating. If I manually type in the updated Where clause in PartBomLOV.xml query tab, it works, but it doesn't programmatically.
public void insertPopupFetchListener(PopupFetchEvent popupFetchEvent)
    BindingContainer bindings = getBindings();
    OperationBinding operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("findParents");
    parents = (List)operationBinding.execute();
    operationBinding = bindings.getOperationBinding("restrictPartBomLOV");
    operationBinding.execute();
   public void restrictPartBomLOV(List parents)
      ViewObjectImpl vo = getPartBomLOV();
      String wcl = "";
      Object[]   p = parents.toArray();
      for(int i = 0; i < p.length; i++)
         if (i == 0)
            wcl = wcl + "PNUM <> '" + p.toString() + "'";
else
wcl = wcl + "AND PNUM <> '" + p[i].toString() + "'";
vo.setWhereClause(wcl);
System.out.println(vo.getWhereClause().toString());
vo.executeQuery();

How to Create a Selection Variable for restricting the querry output

Hi Gurus,
I have created a query in query designer on a Multiprovider and the output of the query is a Formula in a structure which calculates a % value, the client is looking for entering a range of number during the query selection screen and the output should be restricted to the given selection values.
Can any one tell me how i should create a selection variable that would take the input from the user during the query selection screen and then restrict the output to that value which user specified.
Is there a need to write any customer exit or is there any alternative way to make the query work as the requirement is.
I hope this explains my problem but if any questions please let me know so that i can give u specific information.
Thanks,
Nisha.

Hi Nisha,
Firstly, in order to restrict the query output by a key figure value, you will need to create a condition on that key figure. This is done in the query deisgner. Now when you are creating the condition you can also use user entry variables (formula variables with user entry) to let the users enter the value that they want to see.
See here for more details:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/73/702e39074dc93de10000000a114084/content.htm
Hope this helps...

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

Yaseen

Using Replacement Variables Without Filtering in a Query

I want to use a replacement variable for the posting period and for current fiscal week, but I do not want my query results to be filtered by these values. Instead, I just want to show a column with the fiscal period as a number and the current week as a number. Does anyone know how to do this?
My query shows JAN-DEC values for all key figures but when I use the replacement variable to display NOV as a number, JAN-OCT is blank b/c the query is filtering by NOV. I just want to see a column of "11s".
Any ideas?

Hi Tracey,
I was not able to reply you yesterday. After you gave the details, I had this solution in mind but it was a Friday evening and I had to leave.
My understanding :
When user enters the month in selection screen eg: 11 (Nov)
The key figure which is getting displayed in the report till month of Nov should be KF1 else it should be KF2.
So report should be like this
Jan - KF1
Feb - KF1
Mar - KF1
Apr - KF1
May - KF1
Jun - KF1
Jul - KF1
Aug - KF1
Sep - KF1
Oct - KF1
Nov - KF1
Dec - KF2
Solution:
Make a Restricted KF - RKF1
This will have KF1 with a restriction on the month column "<= " month enetered by user in selection screen (use the same variable)
Make one more Restricted KF - RKF2
This will have KF2 with a restriction on the month column "> " month enetered by user in selection screen (use the same variable)
Now make a Calulated KF
CKF = RKF1 + RKF2
Use this in your report.
I think this is what you are trying to get.
Please do award points if you found this useful.
