Hello,
I have created a drop down which is based on a month characteristic.
When I run the model it is working OK and I see all the available months.
I would like to restrict this drop down to show only months that have data for them.
How can I do that?
Hi Roy,
Were you able to solve your problem?

Hi Roy,
when you use a dynamic list, then it's the best way to do this in the backend system as Mathias mentioned.

Hi Roy,
of course it is better to use dynamic, because your data changes time by time.
You want an example? Ok, when you have e.g. a table with orders and order date,
then check for each year if you have an entry in your table. If you had a table then add the date (year) to your list (for your dynamic entry list).
Best Regards,
Marcel
Hi Roy,
this depends on your backend system. If you use ABAP RFCs for the dynamic entry list then you can do this in your function module. If you use other data services from other backend systems you must do it there, e.g. oracle database you have to programm it with a stored procedure.
Can you give us the information what backendsystem do you use and what kind of data service?
Best Regards,
Marcel
Hi Roy,
Ok if there is nothing similar like distinct available in XMLA then use a function module.
Use a select distinct statement on the records of the BI cube. Therefore you must search the corresponding table of the data. You must have a knowledge about your system tables of your cube. There is no default service from the SAP available as I know.
Best Regards,
Marcel
Hi Roy
How do you fill the drop down list? Static or dynamic.
If you fill it dynamic, the implementation of the restriction in the filling RFC or BAPI would be best.
