MA and MB. For characteristic MA, a "constant selection" has been defined. The MA and
MB features are also included in the static filter. Which statements are correct. (1 correct
answer(s))
 Further limitations of characteristic MB at runtime generally have no effect on the key
figure value.
 The user further restricts the characteristic MA at runtime, as a result the displayed key
figure value generally does not change.
 The restrictions for characteristic MB in the static filter are ignored when determining
the key figure value.
 The restrictions for characteristic MA in the static filter are ignored when determining
the key figure value.

 When defining a restricted key figure, you can use basic key figures, restricted key
figures (global, local), and calculated key figures (global, local).
 You can create a reusable restricted key figure directly on the InfoProvider level (via
the context menu for the folder Reusable Components → Restricted Key Figures in
the InfoProvider tree of the Query Designer).
 If the indicator "Constant Selection" is set for a local restricted key figure in the
properties (Advanced tab), any existing filters (static, dynamic) and the restrictions of
the characteristic (s) used for the restriction are ignored when determining the key
figure value,
 A reusable restricted key figure is obtained by entering a technical name in the
properties of a local restricted key figure and then choosing Save.
37
 For reusable calculated key figures (if the formula represents only one assignment), the
aggregation behavior (standard aggregation and exception aggregation) can be set.
 The query (or report) result of a key figure is determined exclusively by the static filter
of the query.
 When executing a query, the key figures are always calculated on a per-unit basis. If
key figures of different units (for example, currency and quantity) are used in the
formula, the formula syntax is reported as incorrect.
 Calculated key figures are not contained in the data model of the InfoProvider.

 You can hide the selections or formulas contained in a key figure structure. These are
only available in formulas for calculations but not in the results area of the query
 Currency conversion can either be performed during staging (loading the data in the
InfoProvider) or at the execution time of the query.
 In the query design, you can set the currency translation for amount key figures
individually for each key figure.
 You have selected the "Reverse sign" setting for a selection in the properties; when
using this selection in a formula, you must take these into account.

 In the processing type Customer Exit, you can program any function module to fill the
variable and specify it in the variable maintenance.
 The processing type SAP Exit allows you to access function modules that have been
prepared by SAP for filling your customer-specific variable.
 With the help of the variable offset, it is possible to compare key figures that have a
fixed time reference to each other (sales current year compared to the previous year's
sales).
 You can also have one variable (the target variable) filled from another variable (the
source variable) for the processing type Replacement Path. If the target variable is
inputready, the source variable is only used if the user did not enter a value for the
target variable when the query was executed.
When does a formula collision occur?

 If a query is executed with an active condition, no result rows are displayed, but the
row Total Result. The displayed total result corresponds to the value of the query
result.
 Ranking conditions are not possible in queries with active display hierarchies.
 Unlike exceptions, you can define new conditions in the BO Analysis.
The key date of a query...

 ...can also enable you to display the progression of attribute values in the selected time
period using a variable that represents a time interval.
