Copy Update Rule from Business Content

Hi All,
Currently I have activated some standard BI Content E.g. InfoCube 0FIAR_C03, DSO 0FIAR_O03, InfoSource 0FI_AR_4 and all the corresponding update rules.
Now I have copied both InfoCube and DSO into another customized version E.g. ZAR_C03 and ZAR_O03. I managed to copy the same update rule from InfoSource 0FI_AR_4 to ZAR_O03 using the template but I don't have the option of copying the same update rule from ZAR_O03 to ZAR_C03 using the same update rule of 0FIAR_O03 to 0FIAR_C03.
I know I have the choice to manually re-create all the details but is there any other workaround?
Please read through carefully my question. I have seen some forum asking to load data from 0FIAR_O03 to then ZAR_O03 then so forth.
Purpose of doing the above method is because I want to remain the business content as what it is and just to copy it to Z version for customization.
Thanks
David Yee

Hi All,
Is there any other second opinion related to this issue before I close the question?
Thanks

  • Activate Update Rules from Business Content

    Hello,
    I am trying to install 0QM_C10 from business content. Every thing works fine except there are no update rules (there are 3 info sources for this cube). I am new to this and it doesn't make sense for me to manually create (ofcourse the system does the proposal) update rules. Since that is lot of work. I was expecting some transaction / tool where I can activate the update rules from the Business Content (since I can see the update rules in the business content under "Display Description". Is there any tool like that?
    Or, am I doing some thing wrong so the update rules are not automatically installed from the business content along with Cube and info sources?
    Note: I did separate installation for cubes as well as info sources from business content using Grouping by "Only necessary objects" option.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Error while copying Update rules from One Cube to other

    I am getting the following error message while I was trying to copy an existing update rule from an existing InfoCube to a New InfoCube. Has anyone experienced this before? Please let me know how to resolve this.
    Formula 3ZKQ....... (Object version M) could not be read.
    The new and original cubes are custom cubes.
    Thanks!

    Hi Vinod,
    Check the update rules for the original cube. Are they active? It appears that they contain a formula...check this too.
    Hope this helps...

    Hi,
    You can check the Content Release and Last Content Modification for your update Rules following thee given path:
    RSA1>BI Content>object Types>Update Rules>Select object(search for ur update rules) -->Transfer Selections.
    After they are being transfered to the right pane.On right pane (where you can see the its technical name) scroll towards right you will see last three tabs as "Content Release,Last Content Modification and Person responsible".
    Change the Grouping as "Before and afterwards" and then try installing.
    Hope it helps.

  • Error while copy of Update Rules from ODS 0SD_O03 to InfoCube 0SD_C13

    Hi all,
    I work on a NW04s SPS9 System I would like to simply copy Update Rules (from an ODS to an InfoCube) from the BCT to the 1:1 Z-Copies of these Objects.
    To do so, I copied the InfoProviders 0SD_O03 and 0SD_C13 to Z-Versions. In SAP BCT the InfoCube is updated from the ODS. The ODS itself is updated from InfoSource.
    After successfully copying the two InfoProviders as next step I tried to copy the Update Rules from the Content version Objects to the Z-Version Objects to link them.
    Similar to copying update rules in 3.5 I tried
    - right click on "ZSD_C13"
    - choose Additional Functions - Create Update Rules"
    - choose DataSource: ODS Object "ZSD_O03"
    - choose Copy from: InfoCube "0SD_C13"
    This result in the error "0SD_C13 is not suitable as a template for copying update rules".
    Some hints that might help:
    1. The very same error occurs if I try to copy the Update Rules from 0SD_O03 to 0SD_C13.
    2. I also tried to copy both Update Rules (to C12 & C13) on a BW 3.5 system where it worked fine: The update rules from both Z-ODSs to both Z-Cubes were copied correctly 1:1 and without any errors.
    3. In the NW04s System I was able to copy the Update Rules from the InfoSource 2LIS_11_VAITM to 0SD_O01 (as well as from 2LIS_11_VAHDR to ODS 0SD_O03). So I only cannot copy Update Rules from ODSs to InfoCubes while it is possible to copy Update Rules from InfoSources to ODSs.
    4. During copy of 0SD_O03 the system warned: "InfoObject 0FISCVARNT needs to be in key for DataStore object ZSD_O03". No matter whether I move this IO to the keys of the Z-ODS, the Update Rules copy does not work.
    - This warning does not show up on BW3.5 when I copy the very same ODS. Can anyone explain this?
    - This warning is not displayed during the copy of ODS 0SD_O01, just for 0SD_O03.
    5. Obviously during a preceding test I actually must have been able to copy the Update Rules for another copy of 0SD_C13 (as I can see the Update Rules in the SAPGUI). I stopped this first test as I was not able to do the Update Rules copy for 0SD_C12.
    Yet as of today I cannot copy Update Rules this for both cubes 0SD_C13 as well as 0SD_C12. So yesterday there was no error on copying the Update Rules to InfoCube ZSD_C13, but today there is. To my knowledge nothing has been changed in the System Setup / Customizing in the mean time.
    6. For both cubes ZSD_C13 as well as ZSD_C12 it is possible to copy Update Rules that map from the BCT ODS to the Z-InfoCbes. So I can copy Update Rules from 0SD_O03 to ZSD_C13 and from 0SD_O01 to ZSD_C12. This would point in the direction that the copied ODSes are the source of this behavior?
    I am not sure whether this is a special NW04s behavior and how to use it correctly so the Update Rules can be copied.
    Please could you help on how to copy these Update Rules in NW04s or share your experience if you had similar?
    Thanks a lot,
    Werner

  • How to create a copy cube from Business content statistics cube

    Dear Experts,
           I got a requirement to create the new cubes which is a copy of Business content statistics cubes.
    Request you to let me know how can i create a copy cube from Business content cube. My doubt is,weather is't the same as normal customized cube creation  by giving  copy from option.....
    Thanks in advance for your valuable assistance.
    Regards,
    Ramesh - Kumar.

    for copying the cube whose copy is to be made should be available in infoprovider tab in modelling of RSA1.
    first you have to install the business content cube ,so that it is found in the Info-providers tab in modelling .
    for that,first go to business content option found in the modelling tab of t-code RSA1 .
    find the cube and transfer it to the right and execute . It will be available in infoprovider tab of modelling .
    then you can create a copy as we do normally .

  • How to install sources for infobject from business content

    Hi,
    I have 16 infobjects for which we need to move to prod and there are no connections to it but the infobjects are active and some are i modified state, like no datasources, infosources, transfer rules etc., Can you please tell me the approach to install all the necessary for them. I mean how to find and how to install, please help if any documentation is available.
    Thanks

    Hi daniel,
    Inorder to  install the business object, you will be require to follow the following steps :
    i)Go to RSA1 (Admistrator Workbench) for installing the Business Content. Navigate to object you want to install. Now you want to install the info object then select Info Object.
    ii)Select your Info Object say 0MATL_GROUP (material Group).Click on Transfer selections.
    iii)Now when the info object is selected. It will always be in default selection (Only Necessary object), Now if you want to install the various other things like data source, transformation rule etc as you specify in query
    iv) For that go to grouping select IN DATAFLOW BEFORE AND AFTERWARDS. One more thing If you want to specify the Source system then u can do it by clicking on that Yellow Box (symbol specify the source system) adjacent to BEx (Truck Symbol). This mainly used for the things like transformation, update rule etc  as you want.
    v)Now you want to see if there can be some predictive error then go Install  --> Simulate Installation.
    vi)Now important point to note is MATCH(X) or COPY. Now suppose you already have the Material Group install in your system in Active version. Now here if you didnu2019t select the MATCH check box then your   A-version Material Group will be overwritten by the D-version Material group provided by SAP.
    vii)For ur more understanding lets take the example say  you have  added two customer specific attribute to Material Group now twist is SAP has also just release the enhance material Group with two additional attribute. Now  you are very curious of getting this two attribute in your already active Material Group. For this you will be required to install the material Group from Business content. If you forget to check the Match option then your customer specific attribute will be lost. So to retain them we have to check the MATCH(X) 
    Hope it will help.

  • Copy Update Rules

    Hi Gurus,
    We installed some Business content cubes along with the corresponding update rules. We want to do Z-copy of the cube. How do we copy update rule of a Business Content Cube (eg 0PUR_C01) to a Z-copy of the same cube (eg ZPUR_C01)?
    Please let me know
    Thanks

    We have a standard ODS which gets updated thru update rules from an Infosource. However, the next level Data Target (which is a Standard infocube) gets updated from the ODS. While doing the Z-copy of ODS I did have the original ODS as in the 'template' field in the 'create update rule' initial screen and I got the update rules copied in same way as it is with the original ODS. However, I am not sure what exactly I need to do for copying the update rules from the Z-ODS to Z-cube. What needs to be filled in the "template" field?

  • Problem in Installing/ Activating 0SD_C03 Infocube from Business Content

    Hello Friends,
    I am installing an InfoCube 0SD_C03 from Business Content in our BW Development environmant. I first installed "Only the Necessary Components". This took 3 hrs. AFterwards I picked "Before Option" and it kept running for 14 hrs, without completeing. In the last I stopped it to minimize the performance impact to anybody.
    My question is, do you also face any such problem of installation running for hours and hours? How have you handled its resolution.
    Finally, I broken my task into various component and I am installing component by component (e.g. Transfer Rule, Update Riles etc. etc.). But while doing so, human errors are possible and I may miss something. Also we would not like the same activation runs for hours in Production.. So there
    Could you share some of your rich experience and possible resolution. Thanks for your help.

    Friends,
    Necessary components took 2-3 hrs. I am running "before option" this weekend and will find out Monday. Running on weekend will not impact anybody.
    I am communicating with Basis Team and they are aware of this problem.
    In my previous organization, even Before Option will complete in 2 hrs (maximum). I guess there are multiple factors for jobs running so slow. Of course, I am following all rules of the Game!!

  • Is there a possibility to copy update rules?

    Hi All,
    I have to load data from a number cubes into an ODS.
    All of the cubes have exactly the same structure.
    I created export data sources for all cubes and an uodate rule for one of these cubes  with a start routine and a lot of routines for info objects.
    When I try to use this cube as a template for update rules
    of the other cubes, I get an error.
    The entered InfoCube is not suitable as a template for copying the update rules
    I there another way to copy update rules? I can't believe,
    that I have to create the same rouitnes for each source.
    Thanks in advance
    Joe

    Hi,
    thanks for reply, but that is exactly what I did,. My problem is that.
    I'm trying to create update rules for the same target from different
    sources (export data sources with the same strucuture) and facing the mentioned error.
