Types of update rules

Hi experts,
What are the types of update rules?
Regards,
Siva

Hi......
Yes either you can say what are the different update types.........that Praveen has already ansered..............or you can say.........
You can say what are the diffrent types of update routines...then the answer is :
1) Start Routine in Transfer Rules
2) Transfer Routine in Transfer Rules.
3)Start Routine in Update Rules
4)Update Routine in Update Rules.
The routines that you write in transfer rules are applicable to all the Data targets that get the data from that particular Infosource, when you are going to write some code in Transfer rules, you have to understand that you are going to manupilate the data that is going to get into BW .
If you are going to write in Update Rules , then that logic is going to apply only for that particular Data target .
Eg : Let suppose I have a Flat file that gets data from 3 countries, US, Canada and Mexico.
Now I have prepared the data source for the same . But I dont want to have the data of Mexico in to BW itself.
So I will write a Start routine at TR to eliminate the data of Mexico.
My Next step is I want the data of US into one ODS and Canada data in to another ODS.
For this I handle the dataflow at Start routine in Update rules, to eliminate Canada data for US ODS and Vice Versa.

Addition vs. Overwrite for Update Type in Update Rules

I have an ODS that is updated by transaction data. A key figure in the ODS is set to "Addition" (not overwrite) in the update rules. My question is, if a transaction record is changed in ERP - only a characteristic in the record, not the key figure, when I load the ODS using a delta extraction, will the key figure be added again to the existing value in the ODS? or will the key figure match ERP?
If update type "addition" does not work with delta extractions, what is it used for?
Many thanks for your help.

Hi,
it depends what the ERP datasource will send as delta for this KF:
- if it was 10, the document is changed to 12 and your delta sends 2 then this wroks peoperly. Usually the delta will send -10 +12, which is the same.
- if the delta just resends the "after image", the 12, the your KF should be overwrite since an add would mess it up.
Your last Q is answered with the first point, right?
hope this helps...

Master data attributes declaration in update rules

Hi Everyone,
can any one tell me, How do we use attributes of master data in update rules..need syntax for using attributes of customer.... like comm_structure-/bic/......etc
post code is attribute of customer, How do I use it in update rule
thanks
Siri

Hi!
if you have customer as attribute in your Infosource and Postcode as acharecteristic in your data target then you just need to select ther 3rd type of update rule "MAster data attribute of" and specifxy 0Cusotomer beside

Error while Transporting Update Rules.

hi xperts,
   I am getting Error while Transporting the Update rules,i already transported the INFOCUBE,INFOPACKAGE EVERYTHING.
    Start of the after-import method for object type R3TR ROUT (Delete Mode)
Errors occurred during post-handling RS_AFTER_IMPORT for ROUT L
The errors affect the following components:
    BW-WHM (Warehouse Management)
Is the error,I didn't change any thing in the Cube or changes to Update rules.
Can anybody Help me?.
   thanking you,
                               with regards,
                               Narendra.

Hi,
Are you still facuing the issue ?
No need to worry about the routines, once you save the update rules if there is any routines in it it will be saved in the same request. If you want to check the routines you can check in the transport connections. Transfer the update rule to the right hand side of the screen and you can see all the routines that belong to the UR.
If you know the technical names of the routines you can check in the TADIR table.
Have you transported the info-sources for this update rules ? why not you again capture the info-source and the update rule in a single request and transport again.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Soumya

Can you help me interpret the following lines in UPDATE rule?

Hi,
Can you help me interpret the following lines in UPDATE rule?
1. What is the role of role of u201CCHANGING RESULT.u201D and u201CCHANGING lc_local_value.u201D?
2. What is the role of the CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY', in particular the Exporting and Importing parts?
3. Can I say that u201CCOMM_STRUCTURE-ORDER_VALu201D in the subroutine is passed to u201Clc_document_valueu201D in the u201CFORM loc_curr_convertu201D; and further passed to u201Cforeign_amountu201D in the u201CCALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY'u201D?
4. Finally, what becomes of my original u201CActual Goods receipt quantityu201D( 0GR_QTY ) which I am writing the routine for? I donu2019t see any where in the code that it is being referred to? Do any of these codes affect the value of 0GR_QTY?
5. Also, if there are 3 different subroutines in the INCLUDE and I am making the change described in #4 above, how do I know which of the 3 subroutines to call?
===============================
===============================
So I am reviewing a transfer routine in for u201CActual Goods receipt quantityu201D and routine an INCLUDE statement: INCLUDE RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES.
The update rule also includes the following properties to run the following subroutine in the Include:
IF u2026..
perFORM LOC_CURR_CONVERT
           USING    COMM_STRUCTURE-ORDER_VAL
                    COMM_STRUCTURE-DOC_DATE

                    COMM_STRUCTURE-EXCHG_RATE
           CHANGING RESULT.
I verified in the INCLUDE (RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES) and the subroutine is as follows:
FORM loc_curr_convert
USING    lc_document_value
           lc_date
           lc_document_currency

HI,
Thanks so much the explanations.
I just verified again on our dev system and the update rule for 0GR_QTY (Actual goods receipt quantity) include the following:
    perFORM QUANTITY_CONVERT
       USING    COMM_STRUCTURE-CPQUAOU
                COMM_STRUCTURE-po_UNIT
                COMM_STRUCTURE-base_uom
                COMM_STRUCTURE-numerator
                COMM_STRUCTURE-denomintr
       CHANGING RESULT
Now, in the include, I also found:
FORM QUANTITY_CONVERT
USING    QC_SOURCE_VALUE
           QC_SOURCE_UNIT
           VALUE(QC_TARGET_UNIT)
           QC_UMREZ
           QC_UMREN
CHANGING QC_TARGET_VALUE.
i. Does it mean it actually does quantity conversion?
ii. If you have access to the INCLUDE I will appreciate some hints on what the subroutine QUANTITY_CONVERT is doing. It does not appear do to be saying anything about quantity conversion; but it is supposed to be doing something with the parameters being passed from the update routine.
iii. In your response to #5, after all the computation in the INCLUDE, what comes back to the Update rule i.e. what comes back to become the value of 0GR_QTY?
Is it the u201CRESULT.u201D in the update rule or u201CQC_TARGET_VALUE.u201D in the subroutine in the INCLUDE.
iv. So, am to create an Update rule for 0PSTNG_DATE and the source is BUDAT; and I need to write a routine using the include INCLUDE RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES.
I looked through the INCLUDE and identified all the subroutines in this INCLUDE as follows:
QUANTITY_CONVERT
LOC_CURR_CONVERT
GET_WEEK
WEEK_DAY
QUARTER_DAY
--Does it mean that to use this subroutine, I can only use the USING parameters of one of these listed subroutines?
--Also, does it mean that because 0PSTNG_DATE is a date, I can only use one of
GET_WEEK
WEEK_DAY
QUARTER_DAY
--Or, are there other includes to be used for 0PSTNG_DATE
Thanks

Key figure routine in update rules

I have a Cube (X) that gets data from a ODS (A) but one of the key figures gets the data from another ODS (B) with a routine in update rules and I want to change it to ODS (C)
A (All objects except one) - X (All objects except one)
B (0DEB_CRE_LC) - X (0DEB_CRE_LC)
select sum( DEB_CRE_LC )
         into RESULT

          and PSTNG_DATE GE l_datainicio
          and /BIC/ZTPOPER = '9'.
My problem is that my ODS (C) doesn't have 0DEB_CRE_LC and the values are divided in 2 key figures (D) & (E), I want to sum both key figures into 0DEB_CRE_LC of the cube.
I tried a tip from a friend but didn't work, I'm lost (newbie), and apreciated some tips, it doesn't seem to sum anything
data: result1 type /BIC/AZPUR_S0100-/BIC/ZSLIQ_VAL,

Data package's data coolection in one internal table of Update rule in bw

Hello Gurus,
I have a requirement in bw which demands to create update routine, in which I need to find the vendor for the material, which doesn't have vendor by some business rule but, here in this case data is divided into different datapackages so here in this case material data is splited over different datapackages.
One material can have n no of records with differnt plants.
My only question is like can we collect all datapackage data in one internal table.
Ex: if there are total 5 datapckages, so in update rule can we collect all these datapackages records?
Please suggest your opinion.
Thanks in advance,
Snehal.
Moderator message: please have a look in the BW forums.

hi,
i think your problem is need of a work area...
Using "FOR ALL ENTRIES IN lt_zhrp" You must use " check lt_zhrp is not initial "
DATA: lt_zhrp TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF zhrp,
lt_zhrt TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF zhrt.
*new
data: wa_zhrp type lt_zhrp.
SELECT tabnr
FROM zhrp
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_zhrp
WHERE objid = lv_posid.
LOOP AT lt_zhrp INTO wa_zhrp.
SELECT low
FROM zhrt
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_zhrt
WHERE tabnr = wa_zhrp-tabnr " lt_zhrp-tabnr
AND attrib = 'NET_VALUE'.
ENDLOOP.

Calculations in Update rules/Start routine/End Routine

Hi Friends,
I have loaded data to a DSO and i have three fields in to it. Lets say Filed1, Filed2 and Field3. Field1 and Field2 are being populated through an update rule in transformation. Aggregation type for these two fields are "Summation".
Now, after the transformation executed, the Field1 and Field2 are filled with values. I want to calculate the value of Field3 as follows:
Field3 = Field1 - Field2
Can anyone tell me where can i do this calculation? I know we can do this in End routine and in Query but i want to know if there is any other place i can do this calculation in transformation? In try to do this calculation in the update rule for Field3 in transformation, i dont see Field1 and Field2 as these are not source fields. I can not write formula also because we can write formula only on source fields not the data target fields.
Your help will be appreciated in terms of points.
Thanks,
manmit

Hi,
in the start routine in the global section define the two fields:
data: g_amount1 type /bic/oi<your keyfigure name>,
g_amount2 type /bic/oi<your keyfigure name>.
in the routines to your 2 keyfigures store the result in that fields too.
routine for field1.
g_amount1 = result.
routine for field2.
g_amount2 = result.
and in the routine to field3
result = g_amount1 - g_amount2." or whatever calculation/derivation has to be done.
kind regards

Hi All,
I got the following error,when i was installing the update rules : Object UPDR D4C8V3KA00XD5ANPVUAH9KQDJ could not be found in version M. but these update rules appear as inactive mode in bi content-object types-updaterules-selection-inactive status.
Please could i know where we can check version status for business content pdaterules. but it was showing NOT FOUND IN Version M .
please anybody can help me for solving this error.
i will asign points for your inputs.

Edited by: kumar kumar on May 20, 2009 5:58 AM

Hi,
You can check the Content Release and Last Content Modification for your update Rules following thee given path:
RSA1>BI Content>object Types>Update Rules>Select object(search for ur update rules) -->Transfer Selections.
After they are being transfered to the right pane.On right pane (where you can see the its technical name) scroll towards right you will see last three tabs as "Content Release,Last Content Modification and Person responsible".
Change the Grouping as "Before and afterwards" and then try installing.
Hope it helps.

The InfoCube(It is already there in Q apd P) has been locked in a different user transport as he added a field to it and not yet transported.
Is this the problem?

Hi indira,
make neccessary changes to the request if u created earlier i.e u can delete the original request or change the discrption to "Dont delete" and release it, if u unable to delete each task in that particular request.
Second step is activate all the infosources and cubes and Update rules.
Then create transport request individually i.e One for IS and One IC and another for Update rules..It would be easier to trace in case of any error.
Release the requests 4m DEV, and important thing is import these requests in Q or P in hierachiel manner i.e
1. IS
2. IC
and the Update rules request.

Error when activating update rules

Hi ,

My requirement is on daily wise .
So i copy the standard one 0RT_C36 and add the 0cal day.In update rule 0calweek has the reference feild posting date For 0calday i mapped with the same feild posting date . Error has occured when activating the update rule . Error is' No component exists whith the feild sid_calweek_f.

Hi,
The Automatic conversion in the update rules helps us map 0CALDAY of Info source to 0CALWEEK of the cube. So it is not a problem with this mapping.
These type of problem occurs especially when we copied update rules. So what we have to do is checking all mappings for corectness in the mapping.

Error in ODS Update Rules.

Hi,
We have an abap routine in an ODS Update rules to get FISC YEAR (type NUMC 4) with a field FISCPER(numc 7) from a table. This routine worked fine. But now we moved the abap routine to cmod program in r/3, and when I am doing a direct mapping of fiscper to fiscyear, I am getting this error message 'Fiscal year variant missing for time conversion of characteristic 0FISCYEAR'. I already did a direct mapping of Fiscal year variant in the update rules.
Am I missing some thing here?
Thanks!

Yes, I am getting fiscvar as V6 from cmod program in r/3, and did a direct mapping in update rules.
