Example

Requirements

Standard settings

Under certain circumstances, numeric values and texts for currencies or units in a query result cannot be determined uniquely. In such cases, predefined texts/symbols are displayed instead of the numeric values and currencies or units:

  • If a Division by zero arises when calculating a numeric value, this text is output.
  • If a numeric value cannot be determined (e.g. arithmetic error in formulas, no unique characteristic value in calculation with attributes), this text is output. This does not apply for NULL values (error).
  • If a numeric value is not calculated due to numeric overlapping, this text is output.
  • If a numeric value is made up of several currencies or units, this text is output instead of the currency or unit. It is also displayed if one of the no aggregation aggregations like NO1, NO2, NOP cannot determine a value (mixed values).
  • If a user does not have authorization to display a particular numeric value for a cell in the executed query, this text is output in the cell instead (no authorization).
  • If a calculated/aggregated numeric value is made up of different currencies, or units, the value is not meaningful. If you choose Show Values with mixed Currency/Unit, the numeric value is output together with the mixed unit/currency indicator (see mixed values). If mixed values are not active, the text that you entered under mixed values is output.

Recommendation

Activities

  1. Set the texts/symbols to output in a query result instead of numeric values.
  2. Decide whether numeric values made up of different currencies or units should be output.
