  • Key Concepts: 
    Static sections are a feature of the BW-BEX Business Explorer component of SAP. They are used to group related data together in a report, allowing users to quickly and easily identify and analyze the data they need. Static sections are created by assigning a static value to a characteristic in the report. This value is then used to group the data together in the report. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To create a static section, first select the characteristic you want to assign a static value to. Then, select the “Static” option from the drop-down menu. Enter the desired static value in the text box that appears. Once you have entered the value, click “OK” to save your changes. The static section will now be visible in your report. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a static section, it is important to make sure that you are assigning the correct static value to the correct characteristic. If you assign an incorrect value, it may lead to incorrect results in your report. Additionally, it is important to remember that static sections can only be used with characteristics that have a fixed set of values (e.g., country or region).
