Hey!
Try this:

  • Regarding text variable with replacement path.

    Hi Friends,
    Please can any one tell me good scenario where we can use text variable with replacement path..
    i have already searched in forum,but that scenario's i did not under stand.
    Please send.
    i will assign points.
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi,
    There is a scenario:
    One has to show, a Period like May 2008 for a report. i.e the report which u r showing is common for May 2008. So u create a text variable on this Fiscal Year Period. When u do this, the Text appears on the Top of the report. So later, whenever u execute a report for a particular month, u get that Header as Jue, July etc etc.
    Its just a header. Text Variable promts u to display the Header with our own uploaded Desire Data.
    Steps.
    1) Edit your query
    2) Right click 'keyfigures' or other structure, choose 'new selection',
    3) beside description there is 'variable' button, click and then choose 'new', a variable screen will come out, type in your variable name, description, choose 'replacement path' for processing by. click 'next'.

  • Help with Upload file to Server Examples

    I have been working with the examples for how to upload a file to the server. Though i got the example to work. there is one more thing i need to do. i need to allow the user to be able to select multiple files.  In the example when you click on Upload, it opens a MS window to allow you to select a file. This example does not allow you to select more then one file though. I found another example for selecting multiple files but this one differs very much in that the person who make it "Ryan Favro" created a whole new GUI window to select multiple files. those his example works great, i dont want a special window to select files, i want the MS window to do it.
    Is there a way to make the original example that uses the MS window to allow the user to select multiple files ?
    I have attached the example that uses the MS window.

    Hi,
    Use this code. May be it helps u.

  • Authorization issue with upload functionality

    Hi,
    I have issue with authorization with upload functionality.
    we have country as authorization relavant field. if we are giving some country authorization to user it is giving authorization error at upload functionality.
    But if we give all country authorization than it is working fine.
    Could you guide me how to avoid this situation. We can not give all country authorization to all the users.
    Thanks,
    Naman Shah

    Hi Naman,
    For SAP BPS
    Here while defining a variable you can set the user authorization and can determine which all records can be seen by the user.
    For eg. Create a variable for country with replacement type User-specific values. Here you can assign values to a particular user id.
    Please check for more details:

  • Error while creating a Characteristic Variable with Replacement Path

    Hi all,
        I am trying to create the Characteristic Variable ZVLOWDT (Low Date') with Replacement Path on characteristic ZSTARTDT (Start Date) and it gives the error 'Source to replace 'Low Date' is not defined.
       I have created a User Entry Variable VAR_DATE (Start Date) with interval like '01/01/2009 - 01/15/2009'  and  Customer Exit variable ZVCPDAY (does some calculation based on the input of VAR_DATE) on the same ZSTARTDT characteristic. I want to get the 01/01/2009 (lower range date of the selection) into this Characteristic Variable ZVLOWDT. We are in BI 7.0 and the following are it's properties:
    General Tab:
    Description: Low Date
    Technical Name: ZVLOWDT
    Type of Variable: Characteristic Value
    Processing by: Replacement Path
    Reference Characteristic: ZSTARTDT Start Date
    Details Tab:
    Variable Represents : Single value
    Variable is: Mandatory
    Variable is Ready for Input : unchecked
    Replacement Path Tab: Replacement Rule
    Replace Variable with : Variable
    Variable : VAR_DATE
    Replace with : KEY
    Why I am getting this error, PLEASE ?
    Thanks,
    Venkat.

    Hi Khaja,
       We could derive a Variable value from another Variable with out Customer Exit. There is a white paper.
    First have the User Entry Variable (ZV_X) and it accepts the date range like '01/01/2009 - 01/31/2009'. Next create the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path for which source variable will be ZV_X and we could get the 'FROM Date' (01/01/2009) from the selection (ZV_X) into it (ZV_Y).
    While creating the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path, I didn't find my newly created ZV_X variable in the list of available variables under 'Variable' header in 'Replacement Path' tab and it is causing the error  'Source to replace variable ZV_Y is not defined'. How could I create the Characteristic variable of Replacement Path, PLEASE ?
    Thanks,
    Venkat.

  • BW 3.5 - Issue with formula variable with replacement path

    Dear experts,
    I'm facing an issue with formula variable with replacement path.
    Just to clarify, I know replacement paths is raising a lot of questions but I've been using this functionnality extensively in the past, both in 7.0 and 3.5, so I'm not looking for basic information about how to use it.
    I'm trying to setup a simple report that would show total values per plant of Purchase Order < 100 €
    To do so I've setup a calculated key figure as follow:
    VAR1 * ("PO value" < 100 ) * "PO value"
    VAR1 is a formula variable with replacement path on 'purchase order' and value attribute 'constant =1'.
    (The report has to show values summarized by plant but should not show the detail PO by PO, so I'm not looking at a solution based on condition)
    The report as characteristic "plant" in rows and my CKF in columns.
    Now let's take an example. I have 3 POs in Plant 1:
    PO1 -> 150€
    PO2 -> 90€
    PO3 -> 80€
    Because of the variable with replacement path, the result in my query should be:
    plant1 = 170 (even though characteristic "purchase order" is not in my rows, system should evaluate PO one by one and return values only for those two that are below 100).
    But the result coming is 320, which is wrong.
    I've done the same report on many other 3.5 systems and it worked perfectly, and I am not able to get proper support from SAP OSS who keep saying that this functionnality is not ready in 3.5 (although I've provided screenshot of this working on another 3.5 system!!! how frustrating...)
    They have also pointed to problems of Before and After aggregation but that has absolutely no impact. Once again, the scenario is working perfectly on other 3.5 systems with the same query design, so i'm sure it has nothing to do with Query Designer options.
    Would anyone have ever come to an equivalenet problem? I'm wondering whether the DB itself could not play a role in the variable with ref  characteristic 'constant =1' ...
    Any though is welcome!
    thanks

    Hi,
    The text variable is replaced when the exact date is clear for this key figure column according to the restriction.
    To achive this, please make sure that either the variable is directly restricted in the key figure selection, or that the date characteristic is in drilldown.
    Regards,
    Patricia

  • Variable with Replacement Path

    Hi, I have two queries. The results of the first one should be the input for the second one. E.g. the first query shows a list of personnel numbers and additional information. These personnel numbers shall be overtaken by the second query. The personnel numbers belong to "Dimensions" in the Query Designer. I alread tried to create a variable with replacement path to the dimension personnel number. I implementet this variable in both the first and the second query (under: "rows"). It`s no "Formular variable" and no "Calculated Key Figure" but a "Characteristic Value Variable" of a Dimension. The problem is now that I cannot execute any of the two queries. The error "Abort the query cannot be released for OLE DB for OLAP. System error in programm CL_RSR_REQUEST and form PREPARE_VQUERIES:INVALID_
    What is my mistake? Thank you in advance! Eve

    It is possible to connect the 2 queries using a Replacement Path characteristic variable. You would need to create the variable on the char whose values you want to pass from Q1 to Q2. The variable will be of type replacement path and you will need to enter the name of Q1 from which it will get the values. Make sure that you include this char in the query definition of Q1 and Q2. In Q2 you will restrict the characteristic using this variable. DO not use this variable (replacement path) in Q1.
    In your query properties check if you have turned on the checkmark for Release for OLE DB for OLAP (3rd tab). If the check mark is there, then remove it.
    We are using the scenario in a couple of places, and it works very well.
    Hope this helps...

  • Creating Variable with Replacement Path to get value from ANOTHER Variable

    Hi all,
        Is anyone has created the Variable with Replacement Path to get the value from another User Entry Variable, PLEASE ? 
    First created the User Entry Variable (ZV_X) and it accepts the date range like '01/01/2009 - 01/31/2009'. Next created the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path for which source variable will be ZV_X and we should get the 'FROM Date' (01/01/2009) from the selection (ZV_X) into it (ZV_Y).
    While creating the Characteristic variable (ZV_Y) of Replacement Path, I didn't find my newly created ZV_X variable in the list of available variables under 'Variable' header in 'Replacement Path' tab and it is causing the error 'Source to replace variable ZV_Y is not defined'. How could I create the Characteristic variable of Replacement Path for my requirement, PLEASE ?
    The following is from help.sap..com:
    Replace with Characteristic Value
    Text and formula variables with the processing type Replacement Path can be replaced with a corresponding characteristic value. In the variable editor, on the General tab page, you specify under Reference Characteristic the characteristic that is to be referenced by the replacement. On the Replacement Path tab page, you can choose whether the variable is replaced with the From or the To Value and with the Key or the Name of the characteristic value. You can also specify the Offset Start and Offset Length for the output.
    Replace with Variable
    Characteristic value variables, hierarchy variables, text variables, and formula variables with the Replacement Path processing type can take their values from a different variable.
    The following prerequisites need to be fulfilled:
    Variable
    ●      The variable must not be input-ready
    ●      The variable must represent a single value
    Source Variable
    ●      The source variable must not be a hierarchy node variable
    ●      The source variable must be input-ready
    ●      The source variable must be available in the query
    ●      The source variable must represent a single value or an interval
    In the variable editor, on the Replacement Path tab page, you specify the source variable from which the value is to be determined. The value is either determined from the key, the external attribute of the key, the description, or the attribute value. You can specify an Offset Start and an Offset Length for the output here. The variable is replaced on the variable screen upon each data release.
    Thanks,
    Venkat.

  • Formula variable with replacement path

    HI ,
    1. Is it possible to use "Customer exist- without user entry variable in the formula variable with the replacement ?
    2. if I use two variable for a same time char in one report (one is User entry variable and the other is customer exit variable for calculating current system date), then how it will work ? (User entry variable is there in the "Char restrictions" section and the customer exit variable is customer exit used in formula variable)
    Thanks in Advance.
    Thanks
    Rajesh

    1. Is it possible to use "Customer exist- without user entry variable in the formula variable with the replacement ?
    Yes. use I_step=1
    I_STEP = 1
    Call takes place directly before variable entry. Can be used to pre populate selection variables
    I_STEP = 2
    Call takes place directly after variable entry. This step is only started up when the same variable is not input ready and could not be filled at I_STEP=1.
    I_STEP = 3 In this call, you can check the values of the variables. Triggering an exception (RAISE) causes the variable screen to appear once more. Afterwards, I_STEP=2 is also called again.
    2. if I use two variable for a same time char in one report (one is User entry variable and the other is customer exit variable for calculating current system date), then how it will work ? (User entry variable is there in the "Char restrictions" section and the customer exit variable is customer exit used in formula variable)
    Yes you can use both the variable of time char to restrict a characteristic but that should not be used on single characteristic.
    You can use the sys defined  0date on one field and the customised one Zsydatum on other char.

  • Formula Variable with replacement path on 0CALDAY

    Hi,
    I am trying to enhance an existing query.
    I am creating a new formula variable processing by replacement path.
    In Reference Characterisitic I have choosen 0CALDAY.
    In the tab options , I selected replacement path.
    In the replacement path tab, in Replacement Rule /replace variable with I am trying to select the variable. But in the variable list I am not able to find 0CALDAY variable, which we have already created and restricting in some other key figures.
    Please help me in this regard.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Madhav

    Hey in the replacement path tab you need to choose either its infoobject or variable from which the value needs to be taken.
    If you choose infoobject you get the options of choosing its attributes etc.
    If you choose variable you get option to choose variable associated.
    But under "General Tab" under reference characteristic you need to choose your CALDAY.
    Hope this helps.

  • Formula variable with replacement path on system date

    Hi Experts,
    I got a requirement to calculate "Days without payment" in report level.
    Days without payment = System Date - Payment Date.
    (Payment date field is available in CUBE, but system date field is not available in the CUBE)
    As we know, the difference b/w 2 dates is not possible directly.It can be possible by creating 2 formula variables with replacement paths on the dates and by writing aformula on these 2 formula variables.
    But the thing is I dont have system date readily available, and I tried by using SAP Exit. But we cant create formula variable replacement path on another variable (SAP EXIT).
    Do we have any SAP variable  for formula with replacement path readily avaliable to get system date (or) any other suggession.
    Please suggest me.
    Thanks,
    Sai Chand.S

    Hi Arminder,
    Thanks for your valuable answer.
    I tried doing the same previously.As u said we can get system date by creating customer exit variable.
    But the thing is to find difference b/w 2 dates, we cant do it directly, we need to create 2 formula variables with replacement path.
    1) Var1 = Formula variable with replacement path on system date(custoer exit variable).
    2) Var2 = Formula variable with replacement path on paymanet date.
    Number of days = var1 - var2.
    But as in 1st point, we cant create formula variable with replacement path on another variable, as system date is already a variable of type customer exit.
    We can create replacement paths only on characteristics.
    Please suggest me .
    Thanks,
    Sai Chand.S

  • Formula Variable with Replacement Path - drillup ref.char and still working

    Hi all,
    I have a requirement, where formula variable (with replacement path) shouldn't work when I remove the reference characteristic from the rows. But this is not the case at the moment
    I have 'Brand' and 'Material' in the rows and there is 'Material Indicator' in the columns. This 'Material Indicator' is a formula and there is formula variable in it with the type replacement path.
    Reference char is 'Material'; Replace with 'Attribute Value' is selected also. As attribute I am selecting one of the attributes of the 'Material'.
    In the report output, I am seeing relevant attribute values when Material is in the rows. But when I remove the Material from the report, I still see the values for this Material Indicator column. But I expect to see blank instead..
    Can you please share your comments?
    Thanks in advance.
    S.P.

    hi,
    Irrespective of the drilldown on Material, the fomula variable will be replaced by material value. This is how replacement variable should behave. You might have to change the design. For  more inputs, let me know your requirement exactly.

  • Formula variable with replacement path to another input variable

    Hi @ all,
    i have a question regarding "Formula variable with replacement path to another input variable".
    My Problem is that in selection screen and for info-fields the input variable is shown with its key and not with its description.
    Scenario:
    A formula variable (X) is used to get an input value of a characteristic variable (Y) for 0Fiscper3 to realize a IF-Then scenario.
    The formula variable (X) uses replacement path by variable (Y) replace by "key".
    In selection screen of the query variable (Y) is named with its key "ZAB_BUPE01" and not with its description " fiscal period". Same as for info-fields where the description is "ZAB_BUPE01" and not " fiscal period".
    Does anybody have a solution to display the selection variable correctly?
    Regards
    Tobias

    Issue Solved!
    The input varaible (y) for 0Fiscper3 was saved globally on the InfoProvider. This results in that the formula variable with replacement path only shows its technical name. I put the input variable in the query itself and it soved the problem. The variable is displayed with its description in selection screen.
    Regards

  • Issue - Formula Variable with Replacement Path

    Hi,
    Is it mandatory to include the base characteristics in the rows on which the formula variable(replacement path) is based on. As long as the base char is in the rows the variable works fine. The moment I take that off, the variable doesn't produce any result. I know the char can be put in the rows and can be hidden, but then in that case I don't get the desired aggregation level.
    Has anybody come across this probelm and managed to sort this out? Kindly suggest any solution.
    Thanks,
    Anurag.

    Hi,
    a formula variable with replacement path only works if the replacement object is in the query in either the rows or colums. The data can never be aggregated on a higher level then the infoObject in the replacement path. If you want a higher aggregation you can add a new key figure as an attribute to your infoObject and fill it with the value you want in the loading process. You can use that key figure in your queries every way you want.
    Kind regards,
    Alex

  • Using variable with the same name as field name?

    I have a complex proc where I have variables with the same name as field name used on a query. something like this:
    SELECT a.id_table WHERE a.id_table = id_table
    where the last id_table is a parameter sent to the proc:
    declare procedure myproc(id_table int)
    Is there any way or notation to declare the variable inside the query as a variable or I have to use a different name?

    Well, variables are not the only thing you have to change if you want to switch to Oracle.
    Although I don't think it is good practice (to use variable name same as column name), here is one example how you can achieve it using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE and bind variable
    SQL> select deptno, count(1)
      2  from scott.emp
      3  group by deptno;
        DEPTNO   COUNT(1)
            30          6
            20          5
    10 3
    SQL> set serveroutput on
    SQL> declare
      2  deptno varchar2(10);
      3  i number;
      4  begin
      5  deptno:=10;
      6  execute immediate
      7  'select count(1) from scott.emp where deptno=:deptno' into i using deptno;
      8  dbms_output.put_line('OUT ---> '||i);
      9  end;
    10  /
    OUT ---> 3
