Impact of enabling Conversion in transfer rule
Hi Experts,
From last two days I am facing an issue while loading the data in a object which has conversion exit as ALPHA.
When any numeric value is coming it ig giving an error message, i searched SDN and found out that in tranfer rule if
I enable conversion(check box) this will get resolved.
Now I am not sure of the impact of enabling this conversion, this is an attribute of 0WBS_ELEMT.
Please suggest.
Hi Vivek,
You use ALPHA conversion for the fields which have the type "CHAR" but expecting numerical values to be stored in there. If you do the conversion the conversion routine will pad the numerical values with leading zeros.
If this is not the information that you are seeking, pls tell us what error you are receiving in the transformation and which check box are you mentioning.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Bijesh

hi gurus,
what is difference between transfer rules and update rules? Can we do currency conversion in transfer rules? if yes how? if no why?
as far of my knowledge i think tran rules are info object level and update rules are data target level.
points are rewareded...
thanks
bw bwHello,
Transfer Rules:
When we maintains the transfer structure and the communication structure, we use the transfer rules to determine how we want the transfer structure fields to be assigned to the communication structure InfoObjects. we can arrange for a 1:1 assignment. we can also fill InfoObjects using routines, formulas, or constants.
Update rules:
Update rules specify how the data (key figures, time characteristics, characteristics) is updated to data targets from the communication structure of an InfoSource. You are therefore connecting an InfoSource with a data target.
For Currency Conversion, put a mail to [email protected]
I have an excellent document which would be help ful to you.
Thanks

Conversion exit error while activating the transfer rules
Hello gurus,
We are doing a function module extraction with 3.X data sources.
On activating the transfer rules , i am getting a conversion exit error for "0fiscyear", but in the infoobject we don't have the conversion exit for it.
Points will be awarded for any kind of response.
Thanks and Regards,
Anu.Hi,
1. Please check in the transformation, its necessary to provide the fiscal variant mapping as well when ur mapping fiscal year object. as on the basis of that value fiscal period will be derived.
2 I guess ur doing direct mapping (Time conversion) and there is no routine written for that. if any u can check that as well for any error.
Thanks

Conversion of DATS to DEC in transfer rule
Dear all,
I have a requirement to Activate mapping field in Infosource - transfer rule.
I have to map ZDATE (datatype - DEC) with ZOLDDATE (Datatype - DATS).
I know it can be directly mapped so DATS field will be automatically converted to DEC like below.
12.07.2010 will be converted to 20.100.712.xxx.xxx
But after mapping it, the dataload time has been increased from 1 hr to 5 hrs.
Do anyone has faced this issue ? how to bringdown the dataload time.
I also wrote a simple routine....but again the dataload timin is affected.
data : l_date type sy-datum,
tmp TYPE AD_TSTAMP.
l_date = TRAN_STRUCTURE-ABRDT.
CALL FUNCTION 'ADDR_CONVERT_DATE_TO_TIMESTAMP'
EXPORTING
IV_DATE = l_date
IV_HIGH = ' '
IMPORTING
EV_TIMESTAMP = tmp.
RESULT = tmp.
Pls give a solution for this problem.

Problem while transporting transfer rules in BW 3.5
Hi All,
I have a problem while transporting transfer rules in BW 3.5.
I have just checked the box for conversion to Transfer structure / Transfer rules of an infoobject and tried to transport it to quality. I got this below error message:
The selections T ZBW_ZBILLRATP_TEXT_BA specify more than one DataSource
Diagnosis
You need to select an individual DataSource based on the selection conditions
InfoSource =
Source System =
Object Version = T
Transfer Structure = ZBW_ZBILLRATP_TEXT_BA
although the select event is not unique.
Procedure
Check the objects to which the selection applies.
Reference to transfer structure ZBW_ZBILLRATP_TEXT_BA not available. No activation possible.
Message no. RSAR436
Diagnosis
Transfer structure ZBW_ZBILLRATP_TEXT_BA should be transported into this system.
However, no DataSource mapping refers to this transfer structure.
System response
The transfer structure was not activated or deleted.
Procedure
Ensure that DataSource mapping, with a reference to the transfer structure ZBW_ZBILLRATP_TEXT_BA is on the same transport request. Use the transport connection to create a consistent request.
Can any one provide me details of how to overcome this issue. I tried transporting all related objects.
Regards
LakshmiHi Lakshmi,
Befor Transporting the Transfer rules, make sure that you are transporting the Active Versions of your Datasource & DataTarget between which your transfer rules exist.
Also make sure that the Transfer rules are active before it is transported.
Hope it helps!

Question about how Cisco Unity Connections v 9.1.1 uses transfer rules
I'm trying to understand how Unity hanldes calls using the transfer rules and greetings. I've got a subscriber whose standard greeting is set to send them to a call handler. Since the call is being transferred from the subscriber would it use the transfer rules vs the greetings? I've looked through the documentation but can't find a good explanation for how the system moves calls around. Thanks in advance.
BillyBilly,
It could use either one, transfer rule is matched first and can either point to greeting or another extension, if it points to greeting then you can simply play blank greeting and transfer to the call handler. Start by looking at the transfer rule and if it is set to transfer to greeting, look at greeting configuration. Notice there is alternate transfer rule and greeting as well, so make sure those are not enabled as they would take precedence.

What are the objects need to collect while moving transfer rules to quality
Hi All,
In production data loads we have faced alpha conversion errror for the customised object ,so chkd transfer rules in that the conversion box is not chkd for that particular infoobject.So i have chkd that box in dev and activated the transfer rules.So now to transport to quality what are all the objects i need to select ?.
If i drag drop the transfer rules in transport connection it shows like none of them are selected even infoobjects,infosource,source system and the selection box is inactive for transfer rules.
So please provide me inputs how to goahead....ThanksHi,
While activating the transfer rules(after changes)-it proposes you the request number .. that u can transport to target systems.
Else, using transport conn--> select only necessary objects in grouping --> find ur transfer rules and transport it.
you can expand all the objects and check only required ones (uncheck others and source sys, coz ss cant be transported)

No transfer rules for FI master data sources
Hi all
I didnt get transfer rules for some of the FI master datasources.
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER
0NEG_POSTNG_TEXT
0ITEMSELFLG_TEXT
When I right click on datasource->create transfer rules->Only other option is enabled.WHen I say continue I am getting this error
*Infosource(transaction data) is not known.
How to resolve this isssue.
Thanks.Double click on the data source and go to edit mode, system automatically provides the corresponding BI content infosources if any and install the same.
Not all the fields will be mapped with BI info objects. Only necessary ones as defined in BI content will be available for you.
If you feel the mapping is incomplete you can modify the same according to the requirement.
Hope this helps.

Transfer Rules is not Activated in BWQ System
Hey all,
I am transporting the Infocubes from BWD to BWQ. I got an error in "errors occured during post-handling RS_After_Import for ISCS L" and "the errors affect the following components: BW-WHM (Warehouse Management)"
I had assign the "conversion of logical systems names" in BWD and BWQ.
The detailed error can be viewed under this path:
http://h1.ripway.com/aywen/TransferRulesDeactivatedinBWQ.zip
thanks...Hi,
Just check the connection parameters between BWQ and the source system. If it is ok then Replicate the data sources bfore activating the transfer rules.
Still the problem exists try this functional module in SE38 to activate the transfer rules: RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL
Hope this will help you.

Cannot See Transfer Rules in Transport Connection
Hello,
I have searched Notes and Forums and have not found a solution for this!
I performed some configuration in our newly upgraded BI system. We
were on BW 3.5 and upgraded to BI 7.0
We also change how our landscape was interconnected.
Our BW Dev system used to connect to our R3 Sandbox system.
Now our BIDev system connects to our ECC Dev system.
This is the first project i have worked on since the upgrade was
successful. What I am finding is that I get the following transport
error when I look at the STMS logs from BID to BIQ.
Transport Error
Start of the after-import method RS_ISTS_AFTER_IMPORT for object type(s) ISTS (Activation Mode)
There is no DataSource with these attributes
Reference to transfer structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA not available.
No activation possible.
Here are the details when I click to get more info on the error message:
Reference to transfer structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA not available. No
activation possible.
Message no. RSAR436
Diagnosis
Transfer structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA should be transported into this
system.
However, no DataSource mapping refers to this transfer structure.
System Response
The transfer structure was not activated or deleted.
Procedure
Ensure that DataSource mapping, with a reference to the transfer
structure 1_CO_PA2900010_DS_BA is on the same transport request. Use
the transport connection to create a consistent request.
Wierd Behavior
The big issue now is that when i go to the transport connection in RSA1
and I want to collect Transfer Rules, I see a small subset of all the
transfer rules I would expect to see. I am looking specifically for
the transfer rules: 1_CO_PA2900010_DS PCDEVC200
Similiar behavior occurs when i am looking for "3.x DataSources" in the
transport connection
I can see these rules in other areas of RSA1 such as Infosources.
Please assist with finding these transfer rules in the Transport
connection.
Other then this transport both ECC and BI system landscapes are up and running normally.
Please help
Thanks!
NickBryan,
Thanks for jumping onto this thread. I am going to complete the transports and see if i have any system name conversion issues to address. I may need some guidance on ensuring that BID, BIQ and BIP have the correct entries in RLOGSYSMAP.
To answer your questions:
1. Was the new source system added as an additional source system or was the R/3 Sandbox source system renamed?
Bryan: The new source system was added by renaming the R/3 Sandbox source system/Executing BDLS. The original source system was PCSNDC200, and we BDLS'd that to PCDEVC200.
2. To what Source system do the transfer Rules belong to that you are missing?
---Bryan: The missing transfer rules (and all source system dependent objects that are missing) belong to PCDEVC200...I fixed the missing object issue, by going to "transport Connection" and clicking on 'Source System Assignment' (or Shift+F7) and then checking the box for my source system, in my case the box for PCDEVC200 was not checked previously.
3. Was the "conversion of Logical System Name" entries updated correctly after the new source system was added in BID?
---Bryan: The answer to this question i will find out tomorrow when I transport to Production (fingers crossed, the BID > BIQ transport went well with name conversion!)
Thanks!

Transfer Rules for two Source System in Production
Hi All,
I have a question.
I have source system ECDCLNT230 (ECC Devlopment) which is connected to BIDCLNT200(BID Devlopment) I have two production source system ECPCLNT410 (ECP Pre Production Client) & ECPCLNT400 (ECP Production Client) which i want to connect with BIPCLNT400. when i transport my content from ECDCLNT230 to ECPCLNT410 and ECPCLNT400 , it works fine. i created 2 source system in BIPCLNT400 and replicated data source in to BIPCLNT400 so all data source has replicated.
Now when i transport the request from BIDCLNT200 to BIPCLNT400, i need two transfer rules, two transformation one for each source system. for that what kind of settings are required.
Thanks is advance.
Regards,
Komik ShahHi,
If I understand correctly, in your BW Production system, you want to connect / load data from your ECC Pre Production and Production system.
In this case, to automate the transport needed for changes of transfer rules for both source system, you will need to have two tranfer rules in your BW Dev. You can either create two source system in Dev pointing to the same ECC Dev system, or one to ECC Dev and the second to ECC QA. Use different name for this two source system.
In BW Production, you then then maintain the source system conversion of both source system.
Thanks. -
Transfer rule Activation failing
hi
I am trying to install the BCT transfer rule and activate it - but it fails saying there is syntax error for an infoobject.
This is the error:
<i>E:Field "L_TEXT" is unknown. It is neither in one of the specified tables nor defined by a "DATA" statement.</i>
The BW version is 3.5.
Any help would be well rewarded.
thanks
EsanHi Esan,
Check oss 913954
Symptom
A syntax error is reported in the transfer rules of some product InfoSources.
For example:
0PR_PURCHASE_CATEG_ATTR,
0PR_BASE_UNIT_ATTR or
0PR_ID_CMP_TEXT
The syntax error occurs in the "two-digit source system" routines for determining the system ID. Error message: E: Field "L_TEXT" unknown.
Other terms
PR_BW, 0PR_PURCHASE_CATEG_ATTR, 0PR_BASE_UNIT_ATTR, 0PR_ID_CMP_TEXT,
PRODUCT, L_TEXT
Reason and Prerequisites
The routine contains the "rs_bct_bupa_form_prod_syst" include but the global DATA statement is missing.
Solution
You must insert two new lines between the following two lines in the affected routines:
Global code used by conversion rules
$$ begin of global - insert your declaration only below this line -
and
$$ end of global - insert your declaration only before this line -
The new lines are as follows:
DATA: l_s_errorlog TYPE rssm_s_errorlog_int,
l_text TYPE string.
Save the routine.

ROCANCEL field is missing in Transfer Rules.
Hi Bw Experts,
i have created the datasource and enabled the delta. I have replicated the datasource.I have created the Custom ODS.When i am creating the transfer rules, ROCANCEL field is not displaying.I couldnt able to map for RECORDMODE Info Object.
Can u pls help on this issue.
Thanks,
Jelina.Hi,
making a field delta enabled will not make the ROCANCEL filed included in the data source.
Its provided by SAP for the standard extractor to track the cancelled records and changes and there is logic written in the SAP programs to populate it.
If you create a generic data source it will bring the changes based on the date which you have given.
If the record is cancelled or deleted then you should include the indicator from the underlying table which shows the records as deleted and make it part of the data source.
You can then map that too 0RECORMODE.
Thanks

in Dev i didnt maintain any thing
in QA i ve mainted Conversion of logical system names as
*Original S S Target S S
BI DEV BI QA
R3 DEV QA DEV
I havnt chkd the box 7.0.
Assgnment of source system to source system id
here i clicked on suggest source system ids
i ve AU and AU.
Even i did a trail with transporting the request to QA but no luck it ended with error 4,but not getting anything even info source or UR etc.........

Transfer rules sourse system assignment change
Hi,
XAD -- Global APO system

GBD - Global BW system
ABD - America BW syste,
I transported, TR,Comm STru, UR from XAD to AAD
In XAD TR,Comm Str,UR pointed to GBD,
where as now i need TR,Comm Str,UR to point to ABD
when i double clieck the transported Transfer rules in AAD, i am getting error GBD doesnt exist
BDLS doesnt work here as ABD is already created in AAD
Looking for experts advise
Thanks
PrabaHey. Do you have the system mappings maintained in AAD to convert GBD to ABD when transporting/importing updates? In the admin workbench it's just tools-conversion of logical system names. I'm guessing that's all it is. Have you ever transported from XAD to AAD? If not, I'm sure that's the issue.
Hope it's helped.
