Script Logic - Structure:


Script Logic code can be broken down into 3 components:

1. Scoping [ the data on which the Logic is to be applied]


2. Body/Code[ the processing/logic to be applied to the data]
3. Saving/writing the record.

The following code snippet shows the three parts:

We will be discussing all of the above sections in details of the above in a short while.

Script Logic – Implementation Steps (Sample):

 Step # 1: Launch BPC Admin client and implement Application, Dimensions and
Members.

 Step # 2: In BPC Admin, Go to SR_PLANNING (Note: need to use your own application)
application’s Script Logic folder. Create a new Logic file. Validate and Save it.

 Step # 3: In BPC Admin, Go to SR_PLANNING (Note: You need to use your own application)
application’s Script Logic folder. Look for Default.lgf. If it does not exist, create a
new one. Validate and Save it.

 Step # 4: In BPC Admin, Inside Default.lgf file, include the just created Logic file.
Validate and Save it.

 Step # 5: In BPC Admin, launch Interface for Excel. Connect to SR_PLANNING (Note:
need to use your own application) application.

 Step # 6: Verify the data using EVDRE () command or using the Report Template(s)
provided by SAP.

Note:

 Instead of having a separate logic file, the code can be put into the Default.lgf file
and it will get executed when data is sent to the BPC server. This may not be a good
practice and may not be manageable if the script has lots of lines of code.

 These are all sample steps, there are several different ways to implement a Script
logic

Script Logic in Action:


1. *XDIM_MEMBERSET

Syntax:

*XDIM_MEMBERSET {Dimension name} = {Members Set}


*XDIM_MEMBERSET {Dimension}<>{MemberSet}

Description:

*XDIM_MEMBERSET defines the scope of the data in which the subsequent business
logic is applied.

Example:

*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_ACCOUNT = TOP_PER_UNIT


*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_CATEGORY = PLAN
*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_ENTITY = USA
*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_PRODUCT = LAPTOP
*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_RPTCURRENCY = LC
*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_TIME = 2006.JAN

Business Scenario:
Increase the discount given to the PRODUCT [LAPTOP] by 10% and book the value to
the SPL_DISCOUNT [ACCOUNT] for PLAN data for the period – 2006, JAN.

3. *XDIM_MAXMEMBERS

Syntax :

*XDIM_MAXMEMBERS {dimension} = {max number of members}

Description:

When there are too many records to be processed, *XDIM_MAXMEMBERS can be used
to do batch processing, i.e. you can tell the server to process the first batch of
records(say 100 records) and when that is completed, next batch can be started. This
stops the server from slowing down which arises when too many records are being
processed in-memory.

Example:
*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_CATEGORY=ACTUAL
*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_TIME=2005.JAN
*XDIM_MEMBERSET SR_ACCOUNT=QTY,U_PRICE,U_COST

*XDIM_MAXMEMBERS SR_PRODUCT=5

*WHEN SR_ACCOUNT
*IS "QTY"
*REC(EXPRESSION=%VALUE%*1.1,SR_CATEGORY=PLAN,SR_TIME=2006.JAN)
*IS "U_PRICE","U_COST"
*REC(EXPRESSION=%VALUE%,SR_CATEGORY=PLAN,SR_TIME=2006.JAN)
*ENDWHEN

*COMMIT

The above example processes 5 Products at a time. Once that is completed, it picks the
next 5 Products and it goes on like that.

Example:

*XDIM_FILTER SR_ENTITY=[SR_ENTITY].properties("SPECIAL_DISCOUNT")="Y"

Business Scenario:

9. *SELECT

Syntax :

*SELECT ({variable}, {[What]}, {from dimension}, {Where})

Variable - Holds the selected (retrieved) data


What - Property which need to be retrieved
From Dimension - From which Dimension the data need to retrieved
Where - The selection criteria

Description:

The special instruction *SELECT allows the user to retrieve a list of elements from a dimension
and save it in a user-defined variable for later use anywhere else in the logic.

The SELECT instruction is not specific to a given logic section, but it can be written once
anywhere in the logic and used across multiple commit sections.

The SELECT statement is fairly limited, as it only supports the equal sign (=), not equal to (<>)
and cannot be used to combine multiple filter criteria with AND or OR keywords.

The dataset retrieved using *SELECT can be used in XDIM_MEMBERSET to define scope.

The memory variables are defined at compile time, not at run-time, so the logic file needs to
be revalidated when new members are added to the dimensions.

Example:

*SELECT(%PRODSET%,"ID",SR_PRODUCT,"AGENT_COMMISSION='A'")

15. *SUB / *ENDSUB

Syntax :

*SUB {SubName}({Param1,[,{Param2}…])
{body text}
{body text}
{body text}
[…]
*ENDSUB

Description:

*SUB / *ENDSUB allows you to create sub routines which can be called from the main logic. It
is similar to *FUNCTION except that subroutines can not return values. And, *SUB / *ENDSUB
does not have to be in a separate a file – it can be part of the main logic. If a particular
segment of the code is to be repeated, then it can be coded as a subroutine and called from
main code.

Example:

*SUB SET_REV ( %QUANTITY%, %PRICE% )


[SR_ACCOUNT].[#REVENUE] = %QUANTITY% * %PRICE%
*ENDSUB

SET_REV( [SR_ACCOUNT].[QTY], [SR_ACCOUNT].[U_PRICE] )

Business Scenario:
Calculate REVENUE by multiplying QTY and U_PRICE and book it to REVENUE account for the
PLAN data for the year JAN, 2006 for the product - LAPTOP.

Syntax :

*COMMIT

Description:

Logic engine performs the processing in memory. And, *COMMIT is used to post the
processed data to the database. In the logic file, there could be multiple *COMMIT
statements. This is needed when the logic file contains multiple sections of code
wherein, one section of the code needs the output of another section. Under these
circumstances, the section containing the output has to be committed so that the other
section can use the output value in its processing.

After committing the records, data generated by XDIM_MEMBERSET will be destroyed


and will have to be rebuilt(scoping again) by executing XDIM_MEMBERSET again.

Example:

*WHEN SR_ACCOUNT
*IS "DISCOUNT"
*REC(FACTOR=0.1, SR_ACCOUNT=SPL_DISCOUNT)
*ENDWHEN
*COMMIT

Business Scenario:

 Load only the required data in memory

 Logic structure has to be as short and compact as possible

 Use less number of COMMITs, under/after a logical unit of work

 Use default Logic only when it is absolutely necessary i.e. when calculations are to
