What is an InfoProvider?

An InfoProvider is an object for which queries can be created or executed in BEx. They are arranged into hierarchical InfoAreas on the Administrator Workbench. InfoProviders that physically contain data, are also called data targets. They include InfoCubes, ODS Objects and InfoObjects

Other InfoProviders are MultiProviders and InfoSets

More Query Toolbar Functions Option

Function

InfoProvider

Displays the content of the InfoProvider upon which the query is based; from here you can include objects in the query by using drag and drop.

Filter

Shows the Filter screen area. You specify the filter values of the query here.

Rows/ Columns

Shows the Rows/Columns screen area. Here you specify the free character-istics for navigating in the query and the contents of the rows/columns.

Cells

You can define formulas and selection conditions explicitly for cells in queries with two structures. This function is only available for queries with two structures.

Conditions

You can define conditions for a query. You can specify threshold value conditions for the key figure values for every characteristic. For example, you can specify all sales figures above or below a certain threshold value. In the query, the selected characteristics are displayed with the restricted key figures.

Exceptions

You can define exceptions for a query. Exceptions, deviations in key figure values that you define, are displayed in color in the query view. This allows you to see at a glance whether results deviate from the expected results.

Function

Properties

Shows the Properties screen area. The content of the Properties screen area automatically adjusts itself. Depending on the object that you select, the properties appear as context sensitive.

On applying a filter, the %GT is also recalculated based on the new Overall Result.

SAP BW 7.0

Percentage Share of the report result : %RT This is much the same as %GT. Unlike the process of calculating the overall result, dynamic filters are not used when calculating the report result. This means that, independently of the filter status and the navigation status, the same value is always normalized.

Looks like %GT;but wait;

On applying a filter, the %RT is NOT recalculated based on the new Overall Result. SAP BW 7.0

Data Functions : Count()

Use : COUNT() Description : Delivers the value 1, if 0, otherwise 0.

SAP BW 7.0

Data Functions : Delta

Delta : Delivers the value 1 if the is 0, otherwise 1. The function is identical to the NOT operator and should no longer be used.

SAP BW 7.0

Data Functions : NDIVO

NDIV() : Is 0 if the calculation of causes a division by 0. Otherwise, the result if the value of the expression. It is used to avoid error messages so that you can continue to calculate a defined result.

SAP BW 7.0

Data Functions : NODIM

NODIM() : Delivers purely numerical values of and suppresses units and currencies. Delivers from the basic numeric value, and suppresses the unit and the currency. Using this function means that you avoid the ‘mixed currency’ character (see Customizing table

SAP BW 7.0

Data Functions : NOERR

NOERR (x): Equals 0 for undefined calculations, otherwise x Is 0 if the calculation of leads to an arithmetical error. Otherwise, the result is the value of the expression. It is used to avoid error messages or so that you can continue to calculate a defined result. NOERR(SQRT(-1)) = 0
