  • This is the ABAP program that is generated for a query.
    An ABAP expert will certainly be able to highlight problems in the
    program. As a rule, the logic becomes clear during debugging.
    The template for this program is 'RSRDUMMY'. The three-digit numbers in
    RSRDUMMY are interpreted in the form DUMMYLOOP in RRI2. For
    MultiProviders and non-cumulative cubes, this program contains 'guest
    coding', which is generated by the data manager and jumped to during
    runtime.
    The OLAP processor can make all selection checks not only with the KEY
    but also with the SID, and also with the hierarchy nodes as well as
    their expanded nodes. You can change the type of selection check
    dynamically for each data package. For this reason, all fields and
    constants are identified using field symbols that you can assign
    according to your current requirements using <AB>ASSIGN</>. This method
    also solves the problem of optional variables.

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    Notes on areas of interest:
    G_S_DATA : Structure in which the data is transferred from the data
    manager to the OLAP processor.
    G_S_Q, G_S_C and G_S_F: Structures that control currency translation.
    G_SX_S: Structure that contains the data in the query cube and the
    cache. The key G_S_K corresponds to the free characteristics, or
    <DS:TX.BRAIN-CHAFREE>REPORT-CHAFREE</>. The individual containers
    G_T_Dnnn are described by <DS:TX.BRAIN-WGR>REPORT-WGR</>.
    G_SX_VAR: Structure in which the generated program receives the variable
    values from the variable input to check the data (validation).
    Form USER_EXIT: Exit jump for virtual characteristics and key figures.
    Form ASSIGN_VARIABLEN: Enable/disable optional variables.
    Perform VARCHAVL_INIT: Calculation with attributes.
    Form SELECT_1: Check of all conditions of FEMS '0000'. You can
