Steps for master data loading by using process chain

Hi
I want to load the Master data by using the process chain . Can anyone tell me the step-by-step method for loading the master data .
I means what are the processes should i need to include in the process chain . Pls tell me in sequenece .
i ll assing the points
kumar

Hi,
The process os loading master data is similar to transaction data in terms of using the infopackages.
First you have to load Attr followed by texts and hierarchy.For master data you have to include the process type called as Attribute change run.This can be included as a separate process type or using the AND process.
Hope this helps.
Assign points if useful.

Flat file data loading error using process chain

Hi SAP Experts,
I am having a problem loading the flat file data to the cube using process chain. The issue is that when i run the process chain it fails giving the message " Date format error, please enter the date in the format _.yyyy" . I am using " 0calmonth in the datasource" . Strange is that when i manually execute the infopackage, i dont get any errors and am able to load the same file successfully to the dso and the cube. Is there any special setting for the process chain that i am missing?
The date format in the flat file is mm/yyyy. I have tried all the options i could including recreating the datasource and invain dont see any success so far. please help me solving this problem as we r in the middle of testing cycle.
Thanking you all for your quick response and support all the time.
Kind Regards,
Sanjeev

Hi Sanjeev,
I believe you are opening the .csv file again after saving it. In this case the initial 0 in single digit month (say 02/2010) is getting changed to 2/2010 and the resulting file is not readable to the system. Just do not open the file after you have entered data in the .csv file and saved and closed it. If required, open the file in notepad, but not in excel in case you want to re-check the data.
Hope this helps.

BPC:: Master data load from BI Process chain

Hi,
we are trying to automatize the master data load from BI.
Now we are using a package with:
PROMPT(INFILES,,"Import file:",)
PROMPT(TRANSFORMATION,%TRANSFORMATION%,"Transformation file:",,,Import.xls)
PROMPT(DIMENSIONNAME,%DIMNAME%,"Dimension name:",,,%DIMS%)
PROMPT(RADIOBUTTON,%WRITEMODE%,"Write Mode",2,{"Overwirte","Update"},{"1","2"})
INFO(%TEMPNO1%,%INCREASENO%)
INFO(%TEMPNO2%,%INCREASENO%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,OUTPUTNO,%TEMPNO1%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,FORMULA_FILE_NO,%TEMPNO2%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,TRANSFORMATIONFILEPATH,%TRANSFORMATION%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,SUSER,%USER%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,SAPPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,SAPP,%APP%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,FILE,%FILE%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT,DIMNAME,%DIMNAME%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_LOAD,INPUTNO,%TEMPNO1%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_LOAD,FORMULA_FILE_NO,%TEMPNO2%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_LOAD,DIMNAME,%DIMNAME%)
TASK(/CPMB/MASTER_LOAD,WRITEMODE,%WRITEMODE%)
But we need to include these tasks into a BI process chain.
How can we add the INFO statement into a process chain?
And how can we declare the variables?
Regards,
EZ.

Hi,
i have followed your recomendation, but when i try to use the process /CPMB/MASTER_CONVERT, with the parameter TRANSFORMATIONFILEPATH and the root of the transformation file as value, i have a new problem. The value only have 60 char, and my root is longer:
\ROOT\WEBFOLDERS\APPXX\PLANNING\DATAMANAGER\TRANSFORMATIONFILES\trans.xls
How can we put this root???

Data load Error using Process chain

Hi,
In NW2004s when I schedule delta loads for 2LIS_11_VAITM using process chains, when there is zero delta, the manage screens of the infocubes show green light with zero records correctly whereas the process chain log display shows red. The details of the process monitor show zero records. Is this right? I assume that even if there is zero delta, the log must show green and all the subsequent processes like activation of ODS, deleting of PSA, construction of indexes must be carried out. Please confirm. Is this a bug?
Thanks.
Param

Hi Victor,
Can you please advice how you solved issue as we are having similar issue where it works fine when loaded manually but throws communication error when process chain runs, following is error message..
Communication error: call FM RSSDK_DATA_REMOTE_GET
Thanks in advance for your help!!

How to load hierarchies using process chains

Hi ,
Can any one please explain the steps for loading hierarchies using process chain.whenever i drag the hierarchy infopcakage Save variant is also coming by default,so do we need to have different SAve variant for different hierarchy infopackages or can we have one save variant for all the hierarchy variables.
Thanks,
Vaka

Hello Veka,
How r u ?
Yes ! SAVE Variant & Attribute Change Run will add up while loading the Hierarchy InfoPackage.
Provide the InfoObject Name for which u r loading the Hierarchy in the SAVE variant and SAVE it. The same will be transferred to the Attribute Change Run also.
If u r creating the Chain with more InfoPackages then have the Save Variant & Attribute Change Run at the last.
Best Regards....

Data Load Requirement through Process Chain

Hello All,
I have implemented an area through a custom data source and following is my data load requirement through Process Chain. Request you to kindly help me for the same.
1. The design is an InfoCube and updated using a Transformation through the custom data source.
2. For the entire year 2008 I want a single request to be loaded. So it gets loaded into the PSA and then into the Infocube through a (Delta) DTP.
3. Now, I have created an InfoPackage (Full Update) with year as 2009 in the selection. Tht is I want tht hencforth the data load should be for the year 2009.
4. Hence, the Infopackage will run to bring the 2009 data into PSA and I run the (Delta) DTP to update the same in the Cube.
5. Now, what i require is everyday the InfoPackage (Full Update) with 2009 should run and bring data into PSA. and the same should be updated in the InfoCube after deleting the 2009 request already present keeping 2008 request loaded previously intact.
I hope the above is nt confusing.
Please let me know if i can elaborate the same.
Thank you.

How to find unassigned master data text objects in process chain in bi

Hi
Please let me know how to find the unassigned master data text objects in process chain.

hi,
actually if u want to find that , is ur Unassigned Infoobject in present in process chain or not, , that u can find out just by right
click on your DTP (master data Txt datasource--> Master data text ), if this is present in Process chain, then on ryt click, the process chain option will be active. by clicking over that u can find the name in which this exists.
thanks.

Error in Setting lock for Master Data Load

Hi Team,
I encounter the following error while uploading the Masterdata
"Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes
Attributes of characteristic 0BPARTNER are locked by terminated change run 465451241"
I Performed the following steps
1) Checked if any active jobs (change run jobs) running in the system. But no jobs running.
2) RSATTR->infoobject list-> no infoobject found
3)Tried after sometime ,but load continue to fail
Could anyone help to solve the problem
thanks
Bala

Hi Bala,
Check in SM12 if there are any locks exist with the change run number?
First check if there are any Master data loads running related to it?
Check in the Attribute change run screen if there are any change run steps are running?
Once after checking the above if no locks exist and no master data is running then check the below steps
1. Run RSA1 transaction
2. Tools -> Apply Hierarchy/Attibutes Change(or direct transaction RSATTR)... menu option
3. Click at "Monitor and Start terminated Change Runs" button (at the bottom of the screen)
4. Click "Reset Status" button at Run ID 465451241
NOTE: this is not recommended, to unlock the locks better to wait till the locks get relased.
If still the error message persists then we can use a FM in se37 in serious cases which was not recommended by SAP...
Use RSDDS_AGGR_MOD_CLOSE in se37 and execute--->there give ur failed change run no(465451241) beside I_CNSID and execute...
It releases all the locks by that change run....and continue with your further work/jobs...

How to do Stastical Setup for Master data Loading

Hi All
Thanks a lot for all guys,who are helping me a lot.
I want to do stastical setup for Master data of sales order.I know how to do for transaction data.
But what is the procedure for MAster data in SBIW-Tcode.
Regards
Balaji

Hi,
<i>Actually first we should load data to Master data table and then to Transaction load data.By this reporting performance will be good.Right?</i>
Actually this will decrease the time of transaction data loading .So it improves the loading performance , not reporting performance.
<i>Now I got a doubt from where this Master Data is been loading? and how to load this data.</i>
2LIS_11_VAITM and 2LIS_11_VASCL are the DS for Transaction data , not for master data.To load the master data, first of all find out the master bearing characterstics in the data target.And then search for teh DS of master data in R/3 with tcode RSA6 .You will use characterstic(info object) as the search option here.
For example 0materail is the Master characterstic.
And you can see the DS for this Characterstic in RSA6(if it is not there, you have activate it from RSA5)
0MATERIAL_ATTR
0MATERIAL_LGEN_HIER
0MATERIAL_LKLS_HIER
0MATERIAL_TEXT

Deleting Master Data Requests in a Process Chain

Hi All,
I need to delete and reload master data in a process chain. I created an ABAP program that uses the function module "RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA" to delete the master data. I invoke this program from my process chain, and this is working well. My master data is being deleted nicely.
Question, however. I noticed that this does not delete the actual data request for that InfoObject. If I manage that attribute, I still see the request appearing, eventhough I see no records when I select the option to maintain master data.
Can anyone tell me how I can delete the requests for master data, and how this can be done through a process chain?
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
John Stabile

Master Data attributes failed in Process chain

Hi All,
Master data load has failed at vendor attributes DELTA load, and error message is "'Update mode R is not supported by the extraction API".
Actually in the last PC delta run it was failed at same vendor attributes delta run, due to special characters, we allowed those special characters in RSKC transaction and technically made PSA red request to RED after that In order to Run the PC, We selected that Red request in PSA (Which has the records) and updated with Scheduler. PC ran well after that.
and today PC got failed at same place showing he message as "'Update mode R is not supported by the extraction API".
There are no red requests in data source (Info course), and No delta's missed.
Can anyone please let us know the why it is happening ? (solution is we can re-init it or got options to run it) but we are looking for why this issue is happening ?
All inputs are much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Teena

Hi Teena,
You get this type of error when the data source does not support repeat of delta
or
init flag might have corrupted some times so that it wont allow the delta load to run.
it happens because the DS does not support R or Repeat of delta.
For more information on Update mode:
Go to SE12, write data type as "RODMUPDMOD". Read the documentation given there.
You can try multiple options to resolve this.
Simply set the QM status of the last failed delta to GREEN and reload your master data with Full Repair. Your deltas will follow.
the best way for this situation would be to re-init.

Can anyone please give me the steps from the beging till end usign Business content 0material_attr/text/Hier .
I Will assign deserving points to all the answers.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Steps:
1. Go to RSA5 in ECC6 to Install Business Content D.S.
2.If you want do any change then Go to RSA6 in ECC6
3. Replicate DS in BW .
4. Create Transformation (to connect DS to MD).
5 Create Info package ( to load from S/S to PSA ).
6. Create DTP ( to load from PSA to MD Objects ).
Please let me know if i am missing any steps.

Hierarchy for Master Data Load from BW

Hi All
I'm loading Master data from BW infoobject 0Customer. There is no Hierarchy maintained for it in BW.
Rather than creating hierarchy manually in BPC, I want to include mapping in transformation/conversion file which should roll master data records coming from BW to ALL_CUSTOMERS (member manually maintained in BPC). ALL_CUSTOMERS will be parent node for the hierarchy in BPC. No other levels of hierarchy is required. All the data should have one parent.
Something like PARENT=*STR(ALL_CUSTOMERS)
Please share your ideas? Help is very much appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi Asif
If you are laoding master data from BW infoobject, you will not be able to load /specify any value for ParentH1/hierarchy node as BW /BPC does not allow that.
An option would be to
1) load hierarchy from a flat file or
2) to maintain hierarchy in BW amd load into BPC the normal way
