Hi All,

 

I have a requirement in a webi report which should display the Net price of certain materials for the Month Selected in prompt where the field used us Calendar Day as To and From.

 

Also, in the report output there should be a comparison of three date fields which are Selected Month (i.e. based on the input in prompts) and then Previous month of the same year and same month of last year.

 

For Example

                                  

     Material Name     Oct-2015     Sep-2015     Oct-2014

          ABC                    235          123               12

          DEF                    454          65                654

          WRE                  65423     6423               9876

          WDS                  78452      9687               313

 

 

So here we have Selected Month i.e. Oct 2015 where the prompt used is 01/10/2015 to 31/10/2015.

 

Please help me out here. Also let me know if any more information is required.

Does BusinessObjects Have Loop or If/While Functionality?

I need to calculate some Year-To-Date values from individual period fields based on the period input by the user. For example, if the user inputs the period as 9 the YTD would be a calculation of 9 fields, Period 1 + Period 2, etc. all the way to Period 9. Please don't tell me that I have to do this as a huge If/ElseIf statement in which I have to write out 12 different equations depending on which period is supplied by the user.

Automatically, I want my report to create Cells which would correspond to 4 distinct values.


In the case below, it is 4 values (4 months),

so I want my report to create 4 cells for each value.

 

Next month, there will be 5 months.

So I want 5 cells appearing automatically in my report for each value.

Could anyone please tell me how to do this...?

Issue with aggregation in Cross Tabs

$

Hi All

 

I am new to SAP BO. I am trying to create a BO report with cross tabs and I am finding it difficult with regards to the below:

 

Product IDLot Year$/ProductNo of ProductTotal $ Value
123201510220
123201410550
123201420
45620155210
456201450

 

Assume the above is a report generated in Webi. The Product ID (is a merged dimension from two different tables), $/Product comes from Table 1, and the Lot Year, No of Product comes from Table 2, and Total $ Value ($/Product * No of Product) is a Variable. Both the tables are within the same universe. This report is working fine. However, if I want the same information in the form of a cross tab, and I am not able to do so.

 

The Cross table has the Lot Year, and Product ID as the row, and the Total $ Value as the body.

 

Current Formula: Sum([Total $ Value] foreach ([Product ID]))

 

The results are below:

 

Sum
201412370 (Expecting 50 here)
201445625 (Expecting 0 here)
201512320
201545610

 

I tried the below formula with no luck:

 

Sum([Total $ Value] foreach ([Lot Year]) foreach ([Product ID])

Sum([Total $ Value] foreach ([Lot Year]) IN ([Product ID])


Plz Help.. Let me know if you need any other information. Thanks!

Combining BEx Variables with BOBJ Prompts - Cascading?

$
0
0

I ran into what I thought was a pretty neat feature when using BEx Query Variables and BOBJ Prompts.  Let's say I have 2 variables, 1 on the BEx side and 1 on the BOBJ side.  When I select a value on the BEx side variable and then refresh values on the BOBJ side variable, I only get the subset list of values based on the BEx variable selection.  If I go change the BEx variable or clear it out, and then refresh the BOBJ one, the values are updated accordingly.  This is awesome as it provides some basic cascading prompt capabilities which are not possible otherwise with OLAP.

 

This is all find and dandy in the Rich Client, but when I tried it on the web (HTML mode), the BOBJ variable does not take into account the selections in the BEx variable...just brings in all the available values all the time.  Also works fine in WEBI Java. 

 

We are on BOBJ 4.1 SP5 and BW 7.4.  Any thoughts?  Is it intended to work this way, or I am venturing into something that's not really supposed to work?  Some screenshots below to help with a visualization.

4. Because of the above issue we are not getting expected results.

From Table

WHERE

Web Intelligence 4.0 - Edit Merged Dimensions wihtout using Unmerge

$

0

I am buiding a whole reporting package in WEBI 4.0 and I've run into an issue.  I have several existing merged dimensions in the report (e.g. Month, Year, etc)  I just recently added several new queries (from different universes) and would like to add the dimensions that came over to the existing merged dimensions.  However, I am unable to do this unless I unmerge the existing merged dimension and then re-merge all the dimension members again.  As soon as I unmerge though, many of my reports are completely messed up and would have to be rebuilt.

 

Is there a way to add new dimensions members to an existing merged dimension without having to unmerge first?

 

Thank you so much in advance!

Calculate before aggregation in WEBI

$

Hi All,

 

I am new to business objects Webi. I have been working on below requirement

 

Below is how my detailed level data looks like

 

CalmonthPlantMaterial - KeyCores - ReturnedCores - Not Returned
Mar-16ABC1234-3357
Mar-16ABC123520-1
Mar-16ABC123605
Mar-16ABC123703
Mar-16ABC123819
Apr-16ABC12391-1
Apr-16ABC124053
Apr-16ABC1241-11
Apr-16ABC124220

 

For each material I need to check if either of the 2 Metrics are negative, if yes I need to exclude that material from aggregation (aggregation at calmonth level). So my final aggregation should look like

 

 

CalmonthCores - ReturnedCores - Not Returned
Mar-16117
Apr-1673

 

 

I have tried below approach:

created 2 new variables as below:

 

1.Sum(If((([Cores - Returned]>=0) And ([Cores - Not Returned]>=0));[Cores - Not Returned];0))ForEach([calmonth;plant;material])

2.Sum(If((([Cores - Returned]>=0) And ([Cores - Not Returned]>=0));[Cores - Returned];0))ForEach([calmonth;plant;material])


Below is the output for above 2 variables along with my original metrics


 

CalmonthPlantMaterial - KeyCores - ReturnedCores - Not ReturnedCores - Returned (New)Cores - Not Returned (new)
Mar-16ABC1234-335700
Mar-16ABC123520-100
Mar-16ABC12360505
Mar-16ABC12370303
Mar-16ABC12381919
Apr-16ABC12391-100
Apr-16ABC12405353
Apr-16ABC1241-1100
Apr-16ABC12422020


and I tried to aggregate these 2 variables at calmonth assuming that it will calculate before aggregation (nullifying materials with negative metrics and then aggregate) But it is not working. below is what I got :

CalmonthCores - ReturnedCores - Not Returned
Mar-16-1273
Apr-1673

 

 

So I think calculation (of variables) is happening after aggregation even though I used for each.

 

 

Please let me know if my understanding of context aggregation is wrong and also if there is any way to achieve this requirement. Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

Aditya

Hi,

I am using BI 4.1 sp5. I have a Derived table which has been built on top of a calculation view. Everytime there is a change in the underlying view and the structure refreshed, the derived table has to be recreated and all the objects repointed to the new view.

Is there any option to refresh the derived table instead of recreating it?

 

Please advise.

 

Thanks and best regards,

Slow performance of Webi reports after migration to 4.1

Hi All,

We have recently migrated from BO3.1 to BO4.1 SP5 Patch 4.

We are experiencing slow performance of Webi reports (almost all reports), almost taking double time to run.

 

Could anyone suggest what can be done to improve the performance, must be BO4 server side settings? as similar report is running in half time on BO3.1.

Appreciate any suggestion.

 

Thanks!
