Key Fields & Data Fields in DSO.

In Standard DSO, Maximum how many number of key fields and data fields we can enter in one DSO?
For e.g : In Cube Char - 248 KF - 233
In DSO Key Fields - ? Data Fields - ?
Regrards,
Nithi.

Hi Nithi,
Since Key fields are decide by us we can add according to our requirement.
Key fields can only be 16 you cannot exceed this. but if you have more key fields, you can combine fields using a routine for a key field
Max Data Fields - 749 data fields can be added in a DSO.
Warm regards
Gokul

Changing the Label of the LDB - PNP Screen Field(Date field)

Hi,
I got a req. to change the label of the field "Data Selection Period". This field is from PNP LDB.
Pls let me know, is there any FM or any other process?

you can customize the PNP selection screen by creating a report class. you will find the button in the report attributes.
or you can define your own selection view via SE80 an maintaining table T599C.
but I dont't think you will be able to rename the field lable.

Reg Data fields in DSO

Hello SAP Guru's!!!!
I have some doubt on maximum number of data fields in DSO. I gone through so many threads on SCN, but could not clarify my doubt.
The max no of key fields in DSO is -- 16
Max no of data fields in DSO is --749.
But i read in some of the scn documents a table can have maximum 256 columns .
DSO is also like a two dimensional table which can also have the same properties of a two dimensional table.
if the above statement of mine is correct.. the number of columns in a DSO is 256 columns = 16(primary key)+240 (data fields--non key fields)
but how come 749 data fields (max) will be there ? if it is so ... the max no of fields will be 749+16 = 765.
I need some clarification on this ....
Awaiting for your responses!!!!
regards,
vamshi

Hi Rajavamshi,
For DSO:
1. See for Standard DSO we have Key fields & Data Fields will be there
2. Key Fields will store only Characterisitc Info Objects, maximum no.of characteristic info object we can add here was 16
3. But in Data fields we can add both Characterstics & Keyfigure infoobjects, Max of 749 data fields we can add here.
4. Atleast one field should be there in either Key fields & Data fields.
For InfoCube :
1. Info cube structure will be having the 16 Dimensions and the Key Fields.
2. In that 16 Dimensions 13 User defined and the 3 pre defined dimensions.
3. One user defined Dimension will maximum can hold 248 Characteristics Info Object, not the Keyfigure Info Object here.
4. But the Key Fields here will store maximum will hold 233 Key Figure Info Object.
Thanks..!!

DSO - What key fields and data fields in dso

Hi experts,
I need to create a dso in between the cube and 2 data sources(2lis_11_vaitm, 2lis_12_vcscl) to stage the data. My question is: what key fields and data fields to choose for the dso? is there a standard dso to copy? please explain in detail the model to set up, whether to connect both the ds's to dso and then to cube or one ds to dso and the other to the cube. more details will help.

Check this for standard DSO:

Key fields and data fields in a DSO ??

i have a question regarding key fields and data fields in a Standard DSO...
i am using 2 datasources to build a open sales report 2LIS_11_VASTH and 2LIS_11_VASTI i am pulling in data from these 2 data sources to a DSO and i am wondering what infoobjects should be in the key fields and data fields .....does this reflect back to table VBUK and VBUP tables and does the key field in the DSO have to be the key fields in VBUK and VBUP tables ???? or what really should be included as key fields and data fields ????
please help....

If you look at the various SD tables, VBELN and POSNR are commonly used as the document number and document line item.
For VBAP and VBUP, it's referring to the Sales Order Line Item with the columns VBELN and POSNR as the key for both tables. However, if you look at the LIPS table, which is the Delivery Line Item table, it too has VBELN and POSNR as the key. Likewise, the VTTP table, which is the Shipment Line Item table, also has VBELN and POSNR as the key.
While using RSOSFIELDMAP as a map is a fairly good "rule of thumb", it still needs to be used with a level of skepticism.

Data Fields & Key Fields IN DSO

Hi Guys,
Can any one tel me what exactly key field holds & Data field hold in DSO.
Thanks,
Venkatesh

Hi,
A DSO serves as a storage location for consolidated and cleansed transaction data or master data on a document (atomic) level. This data can be evaluated using a BEx query.
A DSO contains
Key fields (such as document number, document item) and data fields that, in addition to key figures, can also contain character fields (such as order status, customer). The data from a DataStore object can be updated with a delta update into InfoCubes (standard) and/or other DataStore objects or master data tables (attributes or texts) in the same system or across different systems.
Key fields : It will contains both Chars and KeyFigures.
Data Fields : Based on this i.e. the charecterisctics which you will keep in this Data Fields, the DSO will over write the Data in DSO.
Overwriting functionality will works based on Data Fileds.

DSO - Key Fields and Data Fields

Hi
Do we need at least one data fields (assigned at least one object to data field at DSO)?? or to create update rule to load data to DSO??
Because I am trying to load data with out any objects at data fields or unable to create update rule - all because, at least I should have one object in data fields - right?? pls clarify this.
Thanks.

Hi Raju,
Yes you are right in understanding this.

Data fields in dso

Hi
If I need to calculate amount based on source and destination,and if these two source and destination fields char are there in data fields of dso and keyfigure amount is also in data fields of DSO can we get exact value if make report on this.
thx
rubane

Actually i need to build report where in rows there will be some char
like source plant and destination plant and in rows on the basis of source and destination the cummulated value of amount base on some other few restriction
now my question is :-
acc to my need I need to make genric extractor but one is already there which contains all my fields. now can i use the same extractor,but the worry is ;these all feilds are first going in dso and all are there in data fields coloumn
What I'm thinking is; it will suppress or accumulte records on the basis of key field's(as usual).
so can you pls let me know what to do in this scenario?
how to build a new report using existing extractor ;can i use existing one?

Filling Data fields of a DSO in End Routine

Hi Everyone,
The data fields of a DSO contains 2 key figures and a characteristic.
In the End routine of the transformation, i have assigned constant values for the infoobjects in the data field.
After executing the DTP, if I check in the New Table of the DSO, these constant values are present. But when I activate the DSO, the values for key figures gets initialised and the values for the characterisitic becomes empty (NULL).
Is it not possible to assign values for the infoobjects in the data field? If so, why is this limitation?
Thanks in advance,
Uma

Uma,
To populate any field in the end routine, you have to assign some constant in the transformation first and then re-populate them using the end routine.
Sometimes if you dont assign any constant in transformation, the values remain initial and even after you write a code fo that field, it is not populated in the end routine.
All you have to do is assign constant 0 to the key figures you are populating in the end routine and run the DTP again.
Thanks
Sachin

Infoset Join condition on Key feilds and data fields

Hi Guys,
I have a requirement to biuld the Info set with join conditon on two DSO's the info objects which i am using in the JOin condition are defined as data fieds in one DSO and defined as key fields in another DSO, is it possible to define join condition on key fields and data fields.
The two info objects are
                       0AC_DOC_NO
                       0ITEM_NUM
These two info objects are defined as data fields in DSO :   0LIV_DS1   Invocie verificaion
                                                        key fields in DSO:    0FIAP_0o3 FI AP Line Item
Please suggest me is it possible to define join the condtion on the data fields and key feilds.
Thanks
Best regards
SG

Hi
yes you can create join, you will get any issue in reporting level.
example: Say i want to create Info Set on 0MATERIAL and Sales DSO.
In 0MATERIAL Info Object it is key filed, but in my DSO 0MATERIAL is data field.Still we can create
Creation of join is dependent on fields common in your source objects.

ODS Key Fields and Data Fields

Hi Gurus,
While creating an ODS how do we decide whether a characteristic has to be defined as a key field or a data field.
Thanks,
KR

Hi KG,
Key fields in the DSO are the primary keys in the active data table, depending on the keyfields the data in the aggregates will be overwrited.
It depends on the requirement we will decide what are the keyfields has to be taken. To utilise the overwrite functionality of the DSO depending on the data which is coming into bw we take keyfields. If u are using DSO as a staging then u have to lookinto the corresponding tables of the DSO, what are the primary keys in those tables..
