Dear Experts and Fellow-users of SAP Netweaver 7.40,
since we upgraded to Netweaver 7.40 the Variable "Posting Period" is not working anymore.
We have a Bexx-Query pulling in the first column e.g. the data of the current quarter (Balance Sheet and P&L numbers as of 30th of June) and in the second column based on the selection in the first column the data from the previous quarter (which would be 31st of March).
For the 1st column the Posting Period is selected along with the Fiscal Year, Consolidation Group, Version and Fiscal Year Variant.
For the 2nd column we are using the variable "Posting Period", where you can make a selection for the previous period you want to see via a drop down menu (selecting posting period "minus" -1, -2, -3 and so on).
Since the upgrade the Bexx-Query delivers in the 2nd column the same data (the current data of the selected posting period of the 1st column), so that the nunbers in both columns are identical.
We addressed this issue at first to our SEM-BCS consultants who said that they can reproduce the mistake, but do not find anything about it in the SAP comments or community. Meaning: We basically have to live with it OR to rebuild all our Bexx-Queries in a different way.
The company running our base support had implemented in the meantime 2 corrections, where they thought it might solve the prolbem:
2147059 Unposted values for fiscal year/period and filter on period
2153304 BW Query restriction (in list) leads to wrong SQL.
However, it did not solve the issue.
I would be really surprised, if we are the only ones having this issue?
Is anyone experiencing the same problem?
Have you got a solution to it?
I just cannot imagine that the solution to this problem has to be to rebuild all the Bexx-Queries in a different way to work around the problem!
Any feedback and solutions are very much appreciated.
Best regards
Volker
