Webi SelectionScreen based on BEx variable doesn't display dates correctly

Hi,
BEx query has a date variable. When this BEx query is executed in BW, the date variable shows a calendar in F4 selection screen.
Webi is built based on this BEx query which is using the BEx date variable. When Webi is executed, in the selection screen, list of dates are displayed instead of a Calendar. Also, the list doesn't not contain all the dates.
Please suggest how to get the calendar in the Webi Selecton Screen for Date field or atleast suggest how to get list of all dates in the webi selection screen.
Thanks,
Sai.

Hi,
Use this
<FILTER KEY="ZV_DATE"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="Equal"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Date (Previous Day)','D',,mono,free )"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
- Changed 'A' to 'D' to set from Alphanumeric to Date (might give prompt in date format and calendar option)
- Removed the reference to the LOV (which i think would remove the reference to getting values from BW)
- Changed primary_key to free (which i think would allow the user to enter values themselves)

  • WEBI prompt based on bex variable suppress not assigned hashtag value in LOV

    Hi,
    is it possible to suppress the "Not assigned (#)" value from the list of values in a webi prompt based on a bex variable?
    This "Not assigned" value is something BW specific, BW adds this to each characteristic automatically?!
    WEBI:
    RSRT:
    It needs to work in WEBI, not only in RSRT, and the filtering of data still needs to work.
    For rsrt it works, when you exclude the not assigned value in "Filter > Characteristic Restrictions" and use the bex variable in/through "Filter > Default Values", but this does not work in WEBI, because the BEX Query Data is not filtered on the in the prompt selected value.
    Thanks.

    Thanks David for a quick reply !
    I could manage to avoid # values in WebI prompt using BAdI implementation, here is the brief:
    Problem:
    WebI report prompt (which shows BEx variable) list of values shows blanks or # . Rrequirement was to avoid these blanks or #
    Environment:
    BW 7.3
    BO 4.0
    BW Cube > BEx Query > OLAP Connection > WebI report
    Solution:
    InfoObject Level1 in BW had # values in masterdata, this could not be deleted since it was in use with other Cubes.
    Vaurable Var_Level1 displays # when pressed F4 running BEx query and in list of values in WebI report prompt.
    I implemented BAdI on Level1 info object and variable Var_Level1.
    Steps to implement BAdI are as in following link
    BEx Query - Control the values which are shown on F4
    Used following code to elimitate #.
    METHOD IF_RSR_VARIABLE_F4_RESTRICT~GET_RESTRICTION_FLAT.

  • BO BI 4.0: WebI report based on BEx query (OLE DB enabled)

    Hi Experts
    We are trying to create WEBI reports based on BEx queries, but we are experiencing some issues. We have created two BEx queries og two separate multiproviders and opened them for external use but checking the OLE DB enable checkbox. In WebI we are now only able to use on of the queries as a data source (even though both are OLE DB enabled).
    Are there any limitations to which multiproviders that can be used to create BEx queries for WebI reports?  
    We are using BO BI 4.0 and BW 7.0 SP 5.
    Kind regards
    Erik

    Hi again Henry
    We use BW 7.01 Support package 5 (we know it should have been at least 6), SAP GUI 7.20 patch 9, BEx 7.2 patch 6 and BO 4.0 patch 11.
    The BW user that is synchronized to BO has almost all rights (almost sap_all). When we log on to BEx directly with the same user we use in BO, we are able to run both BEx queries without any problems. When we then log on to BO (with the same user), we are only able to use on of the queries in WebI.
    As you say, we have to following setup:
    -     BO users are synchronized from our BW system and when they log on to BO they use the SAP authentication.
    -     The user that is synchronized from BW has been added to the Administrator group in BO  
    -     The OLAP connection is set to SSO so that the authorization in the BW system is used.
    It is really strange that we are not able to use on of our multi providers in BW in WebI. As you say, we just need to try debugging with changing the authorization concept, changing the OLAP connection setup and so on to see if that helpsu2026

  • WebI report based on BEx query in Live Office document

    Hi
    We have a BEx query in BW that has one input ready variable (period). Then we have created a WebI report based on this BEx query (the WebI report itself does not have any prompts). When we run the WebI report we get asked to enter a value in the BEx variable (remember: this is not a WebI prompt). Until this stage everything works fine. Then we have created a Live Office document and added the WebI report. When we refresh the Live Office document, the BEX variable is not shown. The data that is retrieved is from the last time the WebI report run. The refresh option is set to u201COn demand: From the databaseu201D.
    Is there a way to get the BEx variables to be shown when refreshing the Live Office document? Remember, we do not use WebI prompts.
    We use BW 7.3 and BO BI 4.0.
    Kind regards

  • ProcessdpCommandEx error when adding or removing object from WebI report (based on BEX query) query panel object list

    Hi,
    We have WebI reports build on BEX using BAPI connectivity. When we are trying to add a object in query panel in a existing report we are getting this ProcessdpCommandEx error. But error does not appear when we add at the end of the list of objects already added.
    Can you calrify whether this could be some setting issue or it is a known bug?
    Can you share SAP Note No in case it is a known bug?

    Hi Avijit,
    This error occurs in case of any failure in the connectivity. It is like the data providers are not getting processed.
    You have mentioned that the issue does not come with newly created reports
    Are you creating new reports on migrated universe or a newly created universe?
    If issue only comes with migrated universe, please check if the connection has been migrated properly and required middleware and database connectors are in place.
    If connections are in place, try importing and exporting the universe once and check.
    In case, new report works fine with migrated universe, then you can simply try to re-point the universe by editing the query and can run it again and check.

  • Bex report doesn't display full text information......

    Hi Experts,
    My bex report is not displaying full text information.
    I have set that particular infoobject length as 40 and also have selected long text and Long Description in Bex Tab of the InfoObject.
    In my DSO the data is available in complete lenght but in my Bex report it just displays half information
    Instead of displaying Service Order Released its displays Service Order Rel
    Can anyone help me to resolve this issue please.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Setting up the BEx Property for Object, is not sufficient enough to display in the query output. You can always overwrite the object level settings in the query designing.
    Moreover, when you create a query, system always overwrite your object level settings and apply the query level settings.
    Make sure, you have selected Long Text in the query for that characteristic.

  • Safari Doesn't display websites correctly

    Hey Everyone!
    I have been using Safari for a while now, but had always needed to use another OS to display a couple of java or SSL related sites because Safari in both Tiger and Leopard didn't display them correctly.
    At work we use Advocent's web based KVM viewer. I have found that in Windows, Firefox and IE display this site appropriately. In Safari, on both my Mac and Windows box, I log on to the main screen and it only loads half way. The login prompt is not there - just the top frame/banner. When I view source, both have the exact same output (including a login box). I believe this means that the site isn't discriminating based on browser.
    There are a couple of other sites that this occurs with... but of course, I can't think of them as examples.
    How can I troubleshoot or just plain fix this issue. I'd love to put my Windows laptop in a box and watch the dust gather....
    Sorry for my lack of symptoms or additional information!
    Thanks!

  • Bex Analyzer not showing unicode data correctly

    Hi all,
    we are currently testing unicode data with BW.
    when desplaying the data in BEx Analyzer 3.5 there is  some data that sows as #. not all.
    The connection from BW tosource is unicode and the other side around.
    The data is stored as unicode in BW - checking the infoobject masterdata, data displays correctly.
    RSRT displays the data correctly - all unicode characters display correctly.
    we also made a analyzer 7.0 query which also displays the data correctly.
    BEx web also returns the 3.5 query correctly.
    Does anyone encountered this in the past or knows why this is happening? the problem is clearly only with bex analyzer 3.5
    i am using gui 7.20 with SAP BW 3.5 AddOn Patch 5 for GUI 7.20 patch.

    Jason-
    We had exactly the same issue. The problem is not in the SAP system, it's in the MS Excel language system. Microsoft does not like to be set up for more than one language. Most users set up their computer for one language. So set up your test computer for... for example, Chinese. Allow English. Log in to Bex in Chinese, and execute your report. You should see Chinese characters, and you may also see English characters as well.
    Please note also that if the characteristic text is not maintained in more than one language, you will see the key value instead of the text value. this can become an annoying issue.. for example, we had to write an exit in the datasource so that the customer name (in the communication language) was returned in every single installed langauge to the master data text.
    Good luck !

  • Safari doesn't display the correct fonts.

    Safari doesn't display all fonts correctly. All that is displayed is a boxed A. See screenshot. All the other browsers (Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Omniweb, Camino) don't have this problem. I tried clearing the cache of Safari as well as the system font cache. I use FontExplorer X Pro 3.1 to manage my fonts. No other software has this kind of problems.

  • BEx variables doesn't seem to work in Crystal 2008

    Hi all,
    I've made my first steps into Crystal 2008 on top of SAP BI. I have made a simple query in BEx QD with 2 user-input variables: Fiscal Year and Cost Center. In Crystal (with BW MDX) I've made a report on the basis of the BEx query. After selecting Preview the variable screen shows up. However: after entering some values Crystal displays all records and makes no selection based on the input values.
    Did I do something wrong or did I forget something?
    Thnx in advance,
    Henk.

    Sorry,
    I didn't close my threat.
    The solution for my problem - and maybe yours to u2013 was quite simple. All variables must be in the filter of the query and not in the default values, rows or columns sections.

  • Use BEx variable for user input data, not to filter.

    Hi,
    I have a situation where I am displaying notification task data.  Each header notif has a number of tasks.  These tasks are marked either newest, oldest or no mark (in the middle) for each different task code.
    Using VKF's and by passing the user entered variables for newest and oldest I am able to make KF calculations.
    So if I have a notif that is like this:
    Notif XYZ
      Task 1  Code: SCM     Date: 1/1/2000
      Task 2  Code: SCM     Date: 1/4/2000
      Task 3  Code: SCK     Date: 1/10/2000
    If the user selects Newest = SCM and Oldest = SCK
    The key figure would use those 2 different notif tasks to calculate.
    This works fine.
    My problem now is that since the data is displayed at the line level.  When the user enteres his choices for task code, BEx will filter to find one single task item that has both the Newest and Oldest values that the user entered.  It will return no data.
    Example:
    NOTIF    TASK      NEWEST     OLDEST
    XYZ.........1.......SCM
    XYZ.........3..................SCK
    If user enteres Newest = SCM and OLDEST = SCK
    It will look for one line with both value, returning nothing.
    So, I want to simply use the BEx selection screen to pass values to my virtual code (which I already have working)-  but I do not want the report to filter on a notification that only has both values as OLDEST and NEWEST tasks.
    Is this possible?  To deactivate the BEx filtering for two infoobjects thus only passing the user entered values to my CMOD code?
    Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Brandon

    Hi Prakash,
    Can you explain what you mean?  I know using a text variable would allow me to take the user entry and apply it to the header of a column... but how would it disable filtering on what was entered?
    Thx

  • Firefox 3.6.6 doesn't display text correctly (looks like draft mode) in web pages (I have compared it sidse by side with IE8)

    Using Firefox 3.6.6 text displays on the screen looking like a draft mode print, or like it was printed with a dot matrix printer. I have compared it to IE8, which displays much better. I was thinking it was a display setting until I compared it to IE8. I have looked thru all the settings in Firefox I can find, but no improvement. Also thought it might be my new (second hand) monitor until I did the side by side comparison with IE8.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Got new computer and updated to Firefox 3.6.6

    I also have this problem and it just started in the last week or so. It seems to be dependent on my home network and the problem only exists with firefox. I have used chrome and IE8 with no issues. I can verify tomorrow that it only exists in my network but one thing I was able to test is that the problem exists even on my linux boot. I am totally dumbfounded with this problem and I can't find anything that will allow the gmail page to load. All other pages I have tried load fine, all be it a little slower than normal but they load. If anyone knows of a difference between firefox and all other browsers on how it goes through the router I would appreciate the info cause I don't know of any differences.

  • Firefox doesn't display links correctly where they are supposed to be.

    I am using a Dell Venue Tablet running Windows 8. I try to load a web page and the links that are supposed to appear above a certain area, show up on the left side of the screen in a column, only in a text style format. The entire page itself isn't loading correctly. I've tried installing and reinstalling Java and that doesn't seem to work. It does the same thing in Internet Explorer as well. Don't know if this is a browser issue or something else?

    The tablet is Win 8, but this computer is a Mac, Yes ?

  • First word in text block doesn't display in correct font when viewed by FF

    I'm using a template and changed the font from the original. After publishing all the text appears in the correct font when viewed by Safari. When viewed by Firefox or IE the first and sometimes the last word displays in the original font? I've done 40+ pages with the same effect?

    Hmmm - not a perfect solution but for some reason this issue is resolved by a space before the first word and after the last word. Weird
