Delete overlapping requests from ODS

Question

Hi,
Since it iss not possible to delete overlapping requests from an ods by any automated process like in info cube.
Can we still delete overlapping request using abap code or the only way to do it is to delete  data (selective deletion) in a start routine.
Any tips would be helpful

Hi ,
Try the following logic to delete the ovelapping requests from a particular data source.
*& Report  ZV_DELETE_REQS                                              *
*&Description:This program is for deletion of eixsting Full requests   *
*&            from ODS                                                                     *
REPORT  ZV_DELETE_REQS.
data: RSICCONT like rsiccont,
      rsseldone like rsseldone.
data: begin of i_req occurs 0,
      rnr like RSICCONT-rnr,
      end of i_req.
refresh i_req.
select * from RSICCONT UP TO 2 ROWS
                  where ICUBE  = 'ZCS_D10'
                  order by TIMESTAMP descending.
  i_req-rnr = rsiccont-rnr .
  append i_req.
  clear i_req.
endselect.
loop at i_req.
  select single * from RSSELDONE where RNR eq i_req-rnr and
                  source in ('0CO_OM_OPA_5',
                             '0CS_OM_OPA_1').
  if sy-subrc eq 0.
    CALL FUNCTION 'RSSM_DELETE_REQUEST'
      EXPORTING
        REQUEST                    = i_req-rnr
        INFOCUBE                   = 'ZCS_D10'
      EXCEPTIONS
        REQUEST_NOT_IN_CUBE        = 1
        INFOCUBE_NOT_FOUND         = 2
        REQUEST_ALREADY_AGGREGATED = 3
        REQUEST_ALREADY_COMDENSED  = 4
        NO_ENQUEUE_POSSIBLE        = 5
        OTHERS                     = 6.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
      MESSAGE ID sy-MSGID TYPE 'I' NUMBER sy-MSGNO
          WITH sy-MSGV1 sy-MSGV2 sy-MSGV3 sy-MSGV4.
    else.
      message i799(rsm1) with i_req-rnr 'deleted'.
    ENDIF.
    do.
      select single * from RSICCONT where ICUBE  = 'ZCS_D10'
                                      and  rnr    = i_req-rnr.
      if sy-subrc ne 0.
        exit.
      endif.
    enddo.
  endif.
endloop.
hope it helps....
