Process documentation Zero Activity (OLAP) Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Purpose

The Zero Activity template is an OLAP variance template with which you can build queries that identify members of a selected level that have had sales in the past, but which have had no sales in a specified time period.

You should use this template if you would like to address business questions such as the following:

Which products didn't sell last year?

 

Prerequisites

You have an OLAP data service configured as a BI system.

 

Process Flow

After using the BI Query Wizard to select an OLAP data service and the Zero Activity template, the wizard steps you through the following process flow:

...

       1.      Select a cube

       2.      Configure Zero Activity parameters

       3.      Define filters

       4.      Preview the result

 

Result

After you have completed the wizard screens according to the process above and clicked Finish, you return to the Visual Composer workspace, where a new data service has been created with the query you have configured.

A data service created with the BI Query Wizard is configured automatically with a start input and a table view as output. These three elements together constitute a complete iView, ready for preview and deployment to your portal.

To continue working with your data service and query, see:

·        Working With Queries

·        Using the MDX Editor

 

Example

For an example of working with the Zero Activity template, see Configuring Zero Activity Parameters.
