Open hub destination ---Additional property needed--

Hi,
I have one open hub destination object which is writing data from infocube to an external file (in appliaction server ) and the file is distributed to customers via Email---
This is absolutely working fine.
Now, i also need to extract the data from other datasource to the same cube ( which are nothing but corrections to original data existing in cube ) and the corrected data needs to be updated to the file in applucation server!!
as overwriting is not possible in infocubes i wonder how i could make the corrected data to be updated to the external files

Hi,
Try to load DELTA to the cube from the datasources. By this only the changes will be added to the already existing records.
Else load the data from the cube to a new DSO and the load the data from other datasources to the same DSO. The latest correct data from other datasources will over-erite the existing data in the DSO.
Use this new DSO in the openHub.

Error in Open Hub Destination Transport

Hi All,
I am facing the following problem in transporting the openhub destination.
We have created a Open Hub Destination with following settings.
Destination Type :- 'FILE'
We have ticked the application Server name checkbox.
In the server name we have selected our BI Development Server.
In the type of File Name we have selected 'Logical File Name'. We have maintained the details in AL11 and FILE transactions.
While transporting it to our Quality system, it throws an error saying it does not recognize the server name (which is true, the server name is different in quality system).
Needed your guidance if there is any setting like source system conversion where it would change the name?
Also if you could guide me regarding the best practices to transport the entries we have created in AL11 and FILE it would be realy nice. I did a search on this in SDN and could not find any useful stuff for my case.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Your TR is failing, may be because in your target system, application server file system is different.
go to transaction AL11 and check that. If same folder structure is not available, get it created, or go to RSA1 and try changing your infospoke settings to point to the application sever file as in your target system.
You have to point this path to Q server.

Issue for DTP from DSO to open hub destination

Hello Gurus,
        I have a issue for DTP from DSO to open hub destination, long text for error in the monitor is as follows:
          " Could not open file
SAPBITFS\tst_bi\bit\BIWork\GENLGR_OneTimeVendr_2 on application server"
          " Error while updating to target ZFIGLH03 (type Open Hub Destination)     "
      for open hub destination, I check the configure for logical file name , which is "
SAPBITFS\tst_bi\bit\BIWork\GENLGR_OneTimeVendr",
I am wondering where that file "
SAPBITFS\tst_bi\bit\BIWork\GENLGR_OneTimeVendr_2" in the error message comes from?
Many thanks,

Hi
You do not need to create a file in application server. It will be created automatically.
But if you have defined a logical file name in tcode FILE and used that in OHD and if it is not correct then it will show a conflict. Check this out.

SAP BI 7.0 to SAP PI to FTP and with Open Hub Destination ...Help!!!!

Dear SCN Experts,
I am currently working on scenario where I have a requirement to push data from SAP BI 7.0 to SAP PI 7.
And I am using Client proxy for SAP BI to send the data from BI tables to SAP PI and then to write to FTP address.
Now the challenge I am facing is the ABAP Proxy how to use it with Process Chain and also I am having Open hub destination created for the same.(Specifically with the new version i.e. 7.0)
Can you atleast make me understand what are the steps involved in this for Client Proxy, Process Chaing, How will proxy trigger and other regarding the same.
I have searched SDN but got the document having older versions in it. Which doesn't serve the purpose.
Regards,
[Gaurav Patwari|http://gauravpatwari.wordpress.com]

Hi Michal,
Thanks for the reply buddy.
I know that we can run the scheduled report for the proxy to fetch the report. But the client requirement is to use process chain, Open hub destination which fetches data from the ODS to Ztable created.
We need to fetch that data from the table via our proxy. I am familiar with that report related method.
I have one document using the same method but is using Infospoke(which is now obsolete) so have to OHD and also some of the proxy of XI's older version. So is not helping me out.
Please do the needful. Or can you send me some sample scenario like this with screen shots. It will be a great help.

Details about open hub destination

Hi
I need to know what is the significance of these terms ,what do they actually mean while creating a open hub destination.
Destination type:
Server name :
Type of file name:
Application server filename:
Separator:

Hi,
Using Open hub services u can send the data to a third party tool, to a Table, or to a File.
Destination type means whether u want to send to File, Database Table or Third Party Tool.
If it is Third Party tool u need to specify the server name where the third party tool is there.
If u Check Application server that file will be store in the application server.
Generally file type will be Comma Seperated Variable file (.CSV)
for .CSV file data seperator will be , (Comma).
assigning points in sdn is saying thanks.

Open Hub Destination to Oracle database

Hello All ,
I am supposed to send data from my SAP BI (7.0) system to and Oracle Database using open hub destination. I have to use the option " Third Party " as destination while creating the Open Hub Destination .
From my reading and acc to Basis I realised that I need a 3rd party ETL tool in between BI and Oracle system to write data into the Oracle system since oracle is not SAP RFC aware . The 3rd party ETL that I am supposed to use in this is Business Objects - Data Integrator(BO-DI) . If anyone has implemented this type of Open hub service please throw some light on this issue as to how to setup the 3rd party ETL in between and how to proceed . Any how to document would also be useful .
Thanks and Regards,

Open hub destination to download the output file into R/3

Hi Guys,
             I have a requirement where i need to down load the data from my BW cube to R/3.For this i am using Open hub destination.
While creating the open hub destination we have option called RFC Destination(in that i have selected destination as my R/3 system).When i execute my DTP it is saying the load is successful and it is showing the no.of records transfered.
But i am not able to find where this data is getting transfered From BW cube to R/3 system using open hub.

Hi Friends,
I have one Query on WDJ. Here I have two requirements.
I have done click on u201CExport Excelu201D Button that data was download into Excel file Now my requirement is click on Save Button that file will save into (/exchange/CED) this path of R/3 System.
CED -
>is R/3 System ID
Under System id we can save this file.
Here EP Server and R/3 Servers in Diff Systems.
I was write codeing
InputStream text =      null;
     int temp = 0;
     try
     File file =      new File(wdContext.currentContextElement().getResource().getResourceName().toString());
//       String File = "abc.xls";
//       String file = "anat" + ".xls";
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("File::"+file);
     FileOutputStream op =      new FileOutputStream(file);
//       FileOutputStream op = new FileOutputStream("D://usr//sap//BPE//"+file);
//       FileOutputStream op = new FileOutputStream("D://KumarDev-BackUp//"+file);
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("op::"+op);
     if (wdContext.currentContextElement().getResource()!= null)
     text = wdContext.currentContextElement().getResource().read(false);
     while((temp=text.read())!= -1)
     op.write(temp);
     op.flush();
     op.close();
//        path = file.getAbsolutePath();
     path =      "/exchange/CED/"+file;
     wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("path:"+path);
     catch(Exception ex)
          wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("ex.printStackTrace()");
My Req is that file will saved in this path (path =      "/exchange/CED/"+file; )

Open hub Destinations - Third-Party Tools As Destinations

Dear all, below is the SAP Help process flow steps. I am quiet clear of all the steps except the APIs. Where do we define these APIs? When it says "You use API RSB_API_OHS_DEST_SETPARAMS to define the parameters for the third-party tool that are required for the extraction" where do I use it? Is it in the 3rd party tool? or is it in SAP BI.
If it is in 3rd party tool, where in 3rd party tool. Do I need to write as code ? or would I have an option in the 3rd party tool?
If someone can help me with Microsoft connector using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Integration Services packages to SAP BI that would be helpful.
Where in Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Integration Services packages can I use/put this APIs? Any help Plzz
If it is in SAP BI where in SAP BI do I have to use these APIs? Any help is highly appreciated
Regards,
KK
Process Flow:
Extraction to the third-party tool can be executed as follows:
       1.      You define an open hub destination with Third-Party Tool as the destination type.
       2.      You create an RFC destination for your third-party tool and enter it in the definition of the open hub destination.
       3.      You use API RSB_API_OHS_DEST_SETPARAMS to define the parameters for the third-party tool that are required for the extraction.
       4.      You either start extraction immediately or include it in a process chain. You can also start this process chain from the third-party tool using process chain API RSPC_API_CHAIN_START. The extraction process then writes the data to a database table in the BI system.
       5.      When the extraction process is finished, the system sends a notification to the third-party tool using API RSB_API_OHS_3RDPARTY_NOTIFY.
       6.      The extracted data is read by API RSB_API_OHS_DEST_READ_DATA.
       7.      The status of the extraction is transferred to the monitor by API RSB_API_OHS_REQUEST_SETSTATUS.

It's been a along time since i worked with open hub, but here goes:
The Third Party tool needs parameters or switches to work correctly. Think of the old DOS commanda the "/a" "/b" suffix.
The APIs are simply a way to pass these parameters from the BW source to the Third Party target.
If your tool does not need them, don't worry about them.

Open hub destination as ECC table

Hi All,
Is it possible to create a open hub destination to an ECC table?
Can only see the option for csv, tabke and thrird party.
Thanks,
Nick.

Alright Arun,
Yeah I was thinking of that. If we have 100's of R3 tables where all the data needs extracting, then cleansing then imported to another R3 system would you consider doing this in BI or would you go R3 to R3???
Cheers,
Nick.

Multiple data sources to open hub destination ??

Hi,
Is it possible to assign multiple data sources to open hub destination?
At present we are FTP'ing a file to users. Users need one more field added to this file. The information for this field belongs to another ODS. I checked the infospoke but it does not accept multiple data sources.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Edited by: BI Quest on Sep 4, 2008 8:12 PM

You can create multiple transformations for open hub destination. Create destination of open hub destination to be file on application server and then use transfer mechanism to transfer files to desired destination.

Multiprovider as Datasource for Open Hub Destination

Hello,
Can you pls let me know if we can used the Multiprovider as datasource for the Open Hub destination. Currently we are Bi7.0 and SP9. I am not able to see the option of Mutiprovider in the template.
Appreciate the input ASAP.
Thanks
Gopal

Multiprovider is not yet supported for Open Hub destination and hence you dont see that option.
As of SAP NetWeaver 2004s SPS 6, the open hub destination has its own maintenance interface and can be connected to the data transfer process as an independent object. As a result, all data transfer process services for the open hub destination can be used. You can now select an open hub destination as a target in a data transfer process. In this way, the data is transformed as are all other BI objects.
In addition to the InfoCube, InfoObject, and DataStore object, you can also use DataSources and InfoSources as templates for the field definitions of the open hub destination.
The open hub destination now has its own tree under Modeling in the Data Warehousing Workbench. This tree is structured by InfoAreas.
<b>Restrictions -</b>
It is not currently possible to use MultiProviders as the source for the open hub destination.

Open hub destination of text and attribute for Functional Area

Hi Expert
I have a requirement to accommodate both attribute ( 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR) and text ( 0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT ) for functional area in open hub destination .For this a DSO has been created from both 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR, 0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT data sources .Problem is that DSO has 0FUNCT_AREA ( Functional Area ) as only key fields . So text for both english ( EN ) and Dutch ( NL) for particular 0FUNCT_AREA not getting loaded .If we assign both 0LANGU and 0FUNCT_AREA as composite key of dso , data from attribute transformation is loaded as blank as there is no language filed in attribute data source ( 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR ). Please let me know how can I design to accommodate both text for different language and functional area for open hub destination .
I know that I can create separate open hub destination for master data TEXT and Attribute.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards
Saikat

HI Saikat,
You can create an additional characteristics counter and make it a key field in the DSO.After that we can populate this characteristics in the end routine .It value would increase by 1 everytime different text comes for the same functional area.
Sample code
data: counter type n,
w_farea type /bio/oifunc_area.
Sort result_package by func_area.
count =0.
*checking whether we have the same functional area or we have a different functional area.
Loop at result_package assigning <Result_fields>.
if w_farea is initial or w_farea = <result_fields>-func_area.
count = count +1.
else
count =1.
endif.
w_farea= <result_fields>-func_area.
<Result_fields>-zcount = count.
ENDLOOP.
Clear w_farea.
This way the value of counter would get increased by one everytime a new text comes for the same functional area.We can have any number of texts for the same functional area by this method.
The only issue would be when some delta update comes for the existing text in this method.If you are doing a full load to the DSO from the datasource, then there would be no issue with this method.

Hi,
Please check the link /people/jyothi.velpula/blog/2010/01/20/creating-open-hub-destination-using-a-logical-file-to-extract-the-data .
Also is your DTP full or delta. Try running the DTP as Full.

Open Hub destination in BI 7.0

I am trying to create an open hub destination to extract data from an mutiprovider to BPC, when I get the step where I need to assign the infocube to the open hub destination, I cannot find the mutiprovider from the drop down menu, is this means that open hub cannot use the mutiprovider as the data source?

Hi,
Infocubes, DataStore Objects or Infoobjects(attributes or texts) can be used as open hub data sources.
Please refer below link:
