Querry Convert KPI to Characteristics

[Martin_4]

Hi,

not Unuseual at all:
In a query I need to convert a KPI to characteristic, to be able to filter on it.

I used to do this quite a while ago but forgot how it was done.
Anybody out there got a refresher for me ?

For example: 
KPI Value of KPI YYY =  1  to a Characteristic XXX with  value = "YES"
KPI Value of KPI YYY = -1  to a Characteristic XXX with  value "NO"

Thank You !

Aru you using BW4HANA?

Hi,

i guess i found the answer:

I found a hint how this should work.

it seemded to be called  "virtual KPI" or "virtual Characteristics".

Its implemented with BADI RSR_LOAP_BADI.

The Implementation is quite lengthy:

You find it in: 
"ABAP Programming für SAP BW - User Exits und Badis" from Gallileo Press, Chapter 5.2.
In German but with extensive Codeing samples,
The booklet is only used available.

If you are using BW4 HANA then you can directly implement in Composite provider without any lengthy coding.
