Error while using selection option variable in the selection screen

Hi All,
I am facing an issue while using selection option variable in the selection screen for one of my reports.
Scenario: For the field "Region From" we need to have wild card logic () in tes selection screen, for example if we put "BE" in the selection screen for the field Region From then the query should be executed only for those "Region From" values which begin from "BE".
Approach: For the above requirement I have made a selection option variable for "Region From". This allows use wild card
But when the report is executed we get the following error:
"System error in program CL_RSR_REQUEST. Invalid filter on ETVRGNFR".
(ETVRGNFR is technical name of the info object Region From)
Though the report is executed it displays all the values for the field "Region From" irrespective of the selection given in the selection screen.
Please give suggestions / alternate solutions to crack this issue.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Priyanka.

Hi,
Try to use a variable of type Customer Exit and do the validation inside the exit to display according to your request.
This is just my view, i am not sure if u are already using this or Char. Variable.
Cheers.

Two selection option-variables for the same object

Hi,
I'm using two selection-option variables for the same characteristic in my query:
One is authorization variable and the other is used for restrictions (filter) in a selection screen.
I get an error: SELOPT/Query variable .... does not allow any further selections.
If a selection option-variable is used, no additional selections can be specified for this characteristic in this element.
Is there a way to overcome this problem?
Thanks,
Hagit

Hi,
I have solved the problem by changing the authorization object (in RSECADMIN) from range to single value and also the variable in BEx from selection single value.
To be more clear:
object in RSECADMIN was: infoobject BT var1 - var5
I have changed it to:
infoobject EQ var1
infoobject EQ var2
infoobject EQ var3
infoobject EQ var4
infoobject EQ var5
Hope this helps.

How to change Global variable in the query

Hi,
I have 6 reports which is using 0PDT as a global variable and has single option as a property. Now I want to change this property and have multiple selection but I am not able to change its property.
I am able to see all the filter variables from the query property and from there I am getting edit option to change but the "single selection" option is grey/disable which is preventing me to make change in this variable. Is there any way that I delete this variable and create a local variable which has date range option.
This is affecting all my reports and all the report needs date ranges instead of single select option.
Thanks,
Shivani

Shivani,
You can change the restrictions with new variable(right click on required infoobject and choose restrict -->> choose variables -->> move existing variable from right to left and move new variable. Then you can see only one variable.
You can not delete any variable if is using in some queries.

Providing access to Variables in the Query Designer

Greetings experts and fellow consultants,
I have a simple question, did a search and did not come up with much of an answer. Currently, we have a system with a role for BI Power Users in order for them to create ad-hoc queries. An issue we found was that these power users were not able to view variables within the query designer:
Under the "Characteristic Restrictions" pane, the variables show up as (Display Not Allowed) under their associated InfoObjects. This is presenting an issue (understandably) and I would like to provide access for these power users to see the variables.
My question is, are there any circumstances where I would want to restrict which variables are shown to the power user? Right now, I plan to allow display access to all variables (via S_RS_COMP+S_RS_COMP1 for those informed on Security). Just trying to brainstorm on whether there might be scenerios where I would want to hide certain variables.
Many thanks to all opinions, as always!

Suresh, in my above post I knew how to enable this. I just wanted to know in regards to security whether there were any exposures. Apparently, I could not find any and the changes went through without issue. The way you enable display of variables in the Query Designer is the following:
S_RS_COMP:
RSINFOAREA '*'
RSINFOCUBE '*'
RSZCOMPTP 'VAR'
ACTVT '03'
S_RS_COMP1:
RSZCOMPTP 'VAR'
RSZCOMPID '*'
RSZOWNER '*'
ACTVT '03'
Hope this helps. Of course, adjust the field values are you see fit but the minimum requirement is that RSZCOMOPTP 'VAR' (Variables) and ACTVT '03' (Display).

To know the users and the variables for the query

Hi,
Say I have one query and which is executed 5 times in the day n i can see this in ST03N Expert mode. Now, suppose i want to see the users who executed the query and what are the selections they gave for the query to run, is there a place to see this?
Appreciate your time
Sriram

Sriram,
You can use BW Statistics to view technical information regarding users. SAP also delivers queries that give you usage by users, just install from business content. The statistics cubes extract data from various tables including:
RSDDSTAT
RSDDSTATAGGR
etc..
You can search more, names will start with "RSDDSTAT*"
Hope it helps,

Result Row in the query output

Hi,
If I restrict a characteristic by hierarchy then I cant have the result row displayed. If the hierarchy active is removed then the result row gets displayed. All characteristics are marked to show the result row.
This characteristic is Account Number. If in the query definition I remove the restriction on account numbers and just select hierarchy active and the required hierarchy in the properties then I get the result row in the output. But now it also displays all the unassigned account numbers in a separate node Not Assigned Account Number (s).
I cant even restrict it in the output with hierarchy active selected. When I do select filter value in the output the options Include in Selection and exclude from Selection are grayed out and hence cant select it.
Please advice on this issue
Thank you,
sam

Hi Jaya,
I think you misunderstood my issue.
My problem is not that i do not want to see the field. But instead, i do not want to see only the results row in the query output.
I need to have the results to populate a calculation via sumct formula.
My question is, can sumct be populated if i hide/supress RESULT row ?
Regards,
Maili

Issue with Saving the Query output data in Excel format

Hi,
Recnetly we had upgraded from 4.6c to ECC 6.0.
In ECc 6.0 environment, when user try to export the query output , we are getting only XML option to save the data.
But user want to save the data in EXcel format, he was able to do that in 4.6C.
pleas eprovide some inputs, on this issue.
Thanks,
Sanketh.

I cannot for the life of me imagine, why a link to a post in the 'Business One Forum' where one uses ODBC to transfer query-data to MicroSoft Excel is of relevance to the OPs question, even if the same is not a security issue.
Never mind. [note 40155|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/402155] deals with various symptoms in the ALV-Excel combination as as of release 4.6C. There are various others, mostly in components BC-SRV-ALV and BC-ABA-LI - also: I remember that when we upgraded from 4.5B to 4.7C there was an issue with Excel-templates -> the solution was in the release notes somewhere. So, in addition to SMP you might want to check the release notes and/or upgrade guide for solutions.
And yes, moderators ... this is not a security issue, this should go to ECC-Applications/Upgrade.

How to replace # in the query output ?

Hi experts,
In the query output and for a particular field in a record if there is no value then it is displaying as '#'.
Can we replace '#' with any text or with any other value ?
Regards,
Nishuv V.

hello,
if you display the characteristics as Key u will get as '#'.
You can select as Text,then it will show 'Not Assigned'.
Further, check on these threads:
