Aggregation level query "value help" = Only Values in InfoProv doesn't work

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a problem with Selection Variable for a BEx Query :

- I'm working with SAP BI 7.0 support package 15

- My query is an input ready query built for an "aggregation level" based on "real time infocube" (Planning);

- Characteristic, I want to filter with variable, has query property Advanced->Query Execution for Filter Value Selection = Only Values in InfoProvider

- Characteristic (info-object) has set the property: Business Explorer tab--> Query Def. Filter Value Selection as Only Values in the info-provider...

My problem is:

when I execute a query,

the Select Values for Variables screen appears

I push on the Select from List button

and Select Values For MyCharacteristic appears...

but it shows me all values in master data table of my characteristic instead of only values in the infoprovider!!!

If I build a query for the Real Time Cube it works correctly, but if the query is built for the aggregation level it doesn't work!

Could someone explain me why it doesn't work correctly?

Thanks in advanced

Dear Fede,

Regarding the query built on aggregation level please note the following

the aggregation level is always a Virtual Provider built other

InfoProvider and hence it does not have the dimension table and hence

the F4 mode D is not supported.

Therefore when aggregation level is used in a query, F4 does not supportD-mode: 'Only Values in InfoProvider' and all master data values are

displayed in the value list.

Reference from the note

984229 F4 modes for input help as of SAP NetWeaver 2004s BI

4. Since other InfoProviders do not have a dimension table, the system

displays only posted values if you select "Only Posted Values for

Navigation". Otherwise, it displays the values from the master data

table.

Hope this should clarify your doubts. Please let me know if you have

questions else please confirm the message at your earliest convenience.

Thank you for your cooperation and kind regards,
