Hi..
(Sorry, I accidentally posted this also in Datawarehousing forum, actually it related to BeX forum).
For a particular column(keyfigure) in my report, the user wants to display only positive values.
I used the formula from the one of the forums
(Keyfig > 0)* Keyfig.
This displays only positive values in the column as required. But, the result for this column is also affected. As the result is negative, it shows, zero in the result for this column.
Is there a way in which the result will not be affected by the formula?
I went into the properties of the particular keyfigure and chose Calculate Result as -> Summation.
It throws out the following error message
'Calculating result as...' was not executed
Message no. BRAIN141
Diagnosis
The function 'Calculate Results as ...' could not be used in all
instances.
The recalculation of a result cell always occurs based on the set of
detailed cells subordinated to this cell. This is the most detailed
level of the drilldown. Therefore it is not posible to recalculate in
hierarchical lists. The calculation of a results cell is not performed
if a cell or column with an expand symbol is assigned beneath it.
Otherwise the newly calculated result is changed every time one of its
lower-level nodes is expanded. This is not supported for technical
reasons and would also only confuse users.
Note, however, that calculating with "Suppress Results" is always
executed because the restriction described above does not apply in this
case.
NOTE:
The query shows the keyfigure values for a selected title, for profit center and territory hierarchies.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sai.
Is the expected result for the results rows the sum of the positive and negative values or just positive values?
If it is both the values you can use the LEAF boolean operator for doing a seperate calculation for results and details row. Use the epxression given below, in this case only the positive values will be displayed for details row and the results rows will not be affected.
LEAF (keyfig)((Keyfig > 0) Keyfig)+ NOT LEAF(keyfig)*keyfig
You can also try creating a condition in the query which will display only the values greater than 0 for the key figure.
Thanks.

Hi Deepu,
Thanks for the reply. I tried with ur formula.
LEAF(keyfig) gives all values "zero" for that particular column including the result.
NOT LEAF(keyfig) gives all values "one" for that particular column including the result.
So, ur formula gives the same values as of the present column values.
I tried condition, but it's not working...it says the following errors...

Message no. BRAIN144
Diagnosis
Characteristic Title has an output condition and the 'Suppress Results
Cells' property is active for Profit Center. This generally leads to an
incomprehensible output list.
System response
As soon as an output condition is defined for a characteristic (here
Title), the system calculates the corresponding result cells and applies
the output condition. If a result cell of this type is later deleted by
the condition, all the lower-level detail and result cells in its
drilldown are suppressed. Because the result cell is suppressed the
Title rows are then omitted from Profit Center.
In extreme cases this can lead to an entirely empty list being
displayed, although the single rows or columns would be displayed if the
condition were deactivated.
Procedure
Check the query settings, especially results row suppression and the
output conditions.

Characteristic Profit Center has an output condition and the 'Suppress

generally leads to an incomprehensible output list.
