SAP Key Figure Date Display

[Former Member]

Hi BW Gurus,

I am trying to show the date format of MM/DD/YYYY in BEx and RSRT for 0GIDATE, which is delivered as a Key Figure Date of data type DEC.

When look at the Infocube data, I see it is stored as the raw number, for example 733,058 and 733,101. When I display this on BEx or RSRT, the result for 733,058 is 01/16/2008 and for 733,101 it displays "X". 733,101 it should display as 02/28/2008.

Can anybody shed any light on what the issue may be?

From my understanding the raw value in the cube is KF date is number of days since 01/01/0000. So why don't certain days get interpreted correctly?

Kind Regards,

Alex

Alex,

Date type Key figures normally have an aggregation property of maximum. I am assuming that your query must be aggregating multiple rows one of which might be resulting in a # sign. Otherwise your understanding of date key figures is exactly correct. Try to create a test query with all the charactristics in rows and you should see the expected value for the date.

Hi Vineet,

Thank you, this was my issue. Since there are multiple deliveries to a Sales Order / Line / Schedule line, it summed them up!

Thank you kindly!
