Unable to extract data from R/3 into BW 3.5

I have just started learning BW. I am currently trying to upload data from R/3 into BW. I have tried uploading data into InfoCube , ODS, InfoObjects from R/3 and in all cases I am getting error messages. Please shed some light as the what am doing wrong......below are the steps that I have done
For loading transaction data from R/3 in ODS
1. Created view from VBAP and VBAK tables in R/3
2. Created Transaction type DataSource in R/3 using RSO2 transaction
3. Replicated above DataSource in BW under Source Systems. using 'Replicate DataSource'
4. Created ODS object along the same lines as the above created view in R/3
5.Created InfoSource and assigned the replicated DataSource
6. Activated the Transfer Rules, Transfer Structure, Communivcation Structure
7. Created Update Rules for ODS and activated them
8. Created InfoPackage and started the Data Request
The error message that I see in Monitor is as below
Requests (messages): Everything OK
         Data request arranged
         Confirmed with: OK
Extraction (messages): Missing messages
         Missing message: Request received

I am getting the same error message when I try InfoCube instead of ODS.
Please let me know what is wrong

Unable to extract data from an AS/400 system.

Hello experts.
We are trying to extract data from an AS/400 system but not having any success until now.
I´ll write down you the stepts that we have followed until now:
1.- Create a DB Connect between both systems
2.- Create a Source System from AS400 in the workbench under DB Connect Directory
3.- Generate datasources from tebles specified in the schema of the connection
break point -
At this point, we had a problem with some tables with at least one fieldname containing character "Ñ".
After asking some possible solutions to SAP, the told us this is not supported, as the system can´t have any object with character "Ñ", so the transfer structure was unable to activate with this fields in the datasource.
--- end of brek point --
4.- After those issues, we´ve decided to implement, in another schema, views from those tables which had the fieldnames with that character "Ñ", changing them to an "N".
5.- We´ve created another source system with that schema, and user than can see that schema.
6.- To be able to see those views, in transaction RSDBC, we had to deactivate the two checkboxes in the first window ( Choose tables and Choose views) .
7.- Right afeter, we could generate correctly the datasources from this logical tables.
8.- We have designed the hole dataflow for this datasources and everithing went rigth.
9.- But wen we tried to execute the infopackage to extract data from those logic tables, we cannot get any registers. Acctualy the charge remains yellow after the job have finished.
Please, I would appreciate any help you could give us on this problem.
Thank you very much
Regards
Joaquin

I´d like ti add something to this thread, and maybe clarify a littel bit the question.
The only way that the BW system recognizes those logical tables, through transaction RSDBC is checking out the two boxes on this transaction, "Select Tables" and "Select Views".
I don´t know haw these logical tables have been created, bus does this mean that the are not neither tables or views as BW understand them.
Please, if someone knows anythin about this, answer to this thread.
Thank you very much.

Extracting data from Essbase & loading into flat file through ODI

Hi,
I want to extract data from Essbase and load it into a flat file through ODI(for extraction from essbase I'm using a report script) and I’m using these KM’s:- LKM Hyperion Essbase data to SQL,IKM SQL to FILE Append & for reversing I’m using RKM Hyperion Essbase.All the mappings have been done and the interface has been made.

It seems that you are trying to use the file as your staging areas. Hyperion LKM extracts essbase data into a DB staging area which can then be used by your file IKM to load it into file.
You need to use a RDBMS for your staging area.

Error when extracting data from R/3 into BW

Hi,
There is an infoobject Payscale Level(Datsource 0paysclaelv_attr) in BW module HR that is extracting data from R/3. While extracting data, the following error occurs "Assignment to feature PFREQ did not take place". I debugged the standard function module HR_BW_EXTRACT_IO_PAYSCALELV and I believe there is definitely an error in the data. But Im not able to find out that record. Has anyone come across this error before? Please let me know if theres any solution to this error. The help for this error provides the following details. But I havent understood it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You can assign a specific operation (assignment) to each decision option
within a feature. You can also define decision option ** whose
assignment is effected for all unlisted decision options (this is known
as a default value).
Example:
o                D PERSK
o     K1           &ABRKS=D1,    <- D1 for employee subgroup K1
o     K2           &ABRKS=D1,    <- D1 for employee subgroup K2
o     K3           &ABRKS=D2,    <- D2 for employee subgroup K3
o     **           &ABRKS=D0,    <- D0 for all other employee subgroups
If you now create employee subgroup K4 and the default entry ** is
missing, the system is unable to find a decision option for payroll area
ABKRS.
Procedure
    Define a decision option for K4 or for default value **.

Hi ,
The error is due to the existing customizing of feature PFREQ for MOLGA = 05, there the value to be returned depends on the WERKS, but apparently it was forgotten to add a new line for the "Otherwise" case.
Like it was already done for the case of MOLGA = 03, for example. Please add then a line for MOLGA = 05 and "Otherwise" and the issue should be solved.
If this doesnot solves your issue , then kindly check these OSS notes :
1033423 -> 0PAYSCALELV_ATTR: Short dump feature_error
842212   -> 0PAYSCALELV_ATTR: DataSources deliver wrong results
92055     -> RP_FROM_PERIOD_TO_PERIOD: FEATURE_ERROR dump

Extract Data from a View into multiple columns

fairly new sql person here, I have a question on extracting data from a View that I have created and formatting it in a way that the user needs.
My View has the following columns:
Account
Department
Budget
Spent
Values would be such as:
Account Department Budget Spent
1 A 1.00 1.00
1 B 2.50 1.45
1 C 3.00 4.00
2 A 4.00 1.00
2 B 2.00 1.00
What I'm wanting to do is extract the data out in the following format:
<dept> <account> 1 <account> 2
<budget> <spent> <budget> <spent>
A 1.00 1.00 4.00 1.00
B 2.50 1.45 2.00 1.00
C 3.00 4.00
basically dept as a column and then separate columns for each accounts budget and spent values going across
thanks!

Search for pivot queries in this forum.
However, you need to have finite number of accounts in Account column, otherwise output will be, i must say, non-readable and the query to be written would be unrealistic.

Unable to consolidate data from two DSOs into an InfoCube for reporting.

Hello Experts
I am working on BW 7.0 to create BEx Report as below:
This report will have data coming from two different sources, some data from COPA DSO [such as Customer Number, Product Hierarchy1, Product Hierarchy2, Product Hierarchy3, Product Hierarchy4. Product Hierarchy5, Product Hierarchy6 and a few other Key Figures] and the rest [such as Product Hierarchy, Reference Document, Condition Type (both Active & Inactive), Condition Value and a few other Key Figures] from another DSO (ZSD_DS18) which is a copy of the BCT DSO (0SD_O06). I've chosen this DSO because this is the BCT DSO which is used to store data from a Standard Extractor 2LIS_13_VDKON.
Below are the screenshots of these 2 DSOs:
I have successfully extracted the data from 2LIS_13_VDKON (includes PROD_HIER but not Customer Number) and loaded into a DSO (ZSD_D17).
All the testing is done using only one Sales Document No (VBELN).
First test that I tried is.. to create an Infocube and loaded data from ZCOPA_01 and ZSD_DS18 and when the LISTCUBE was run on this InfoCube, the data is coming up in two different lines which is not very meaningful. Screenshot below:
Therefore, I have created another DSO (ZSD_DS17) to Consolidate the data from ZCOPA_01 & ZSD_DS18 establishing mappings between some of common Chars such as below:
ZCOPA_01                    ZSD_DS18
0REFER_DOC <->        0BILL_NUM
0REFER_ITM    <->        0BILL_ITEM
0ME_ORDER    <->        0DOC_NUMBER
0ME_ITEM        <->        0S_ORD_ITEM
51 records are loaded from ZSD_DS18 into ZSD_DS17 and 4 records are loaded from ZCOPA_01 into ZSD_DS17 for a particular Sales Document Number.
When I am using a Write-Optimized DSO, data is coming in just 1 line but it is showing only 4 lines which is aggregated which is as expected since W/O DSO aggregates the data. However, when I use Standard DSO, the data is again splitting up into many lines.
Is there something that I am missing in here while designing the Data Model or does this call for some ABAP being done, if so, where or should I have to talk to the Functional Lead and then Enhance the Standard Extractor, and even if I do that, I would still have to bring in those Key Figures from ZCOPA_01 for my reporting?
Thank you very much in advance and your help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Chandu

in your (current) InfoCube setup, you could work with "constant selection" on the key figures
for the COPA key figures, you'll need to add product hierarchy to the key figures with a selection of # and constant selection flagged
for the SD key figures, you'll have to do the same for customer & the product hierarchy levels (instead of product hierarchy)

How to extract data from 12 tables ?

Hi experts,
I want to extract data from 12 tables into bi.
How can we do this. And also can we extract some fields from
a structure?
Full points will be assigned.
Regards,
V N.

Hi,
First you need to check if the tables are standard tables or custom tables. If they are standard tables check which extractors are using those tables.
If they are not being used by any of the standard extractors then you you need to create generic datasource for the same. The same hold true for custom tables as well. For custom tables, you'll need to create generic datasource. If you search the forum for generic datasources you'll get a lot of information.
Its very important that you understand the table relationships, data volumes, if delta is possible or not, data granularity, etc for your datasource design.
Cheers,
Kedar

How to extract data from custom made Idoc that is not sent

Hi experts,
Could you please advise if there is a way how to extract data from custom made idoc (it collects a lot of data from different SAP tables)? Please note that this idoc is not sent as target system is not fully maintained.
As by now, we would like to verify - what data is extracted now.
Any help, would be appreciated!

Hi,
The fields that are given for each segment have their length given in EDSAPPL table. How you have to map is explained in below example.
Suppose for segment1, EDSAPPL has 3 fields so below are entries
SEGMENT          FIELDNAME           LENGTH
SEGMENT1         FIELD1                   4
SEGMENT1         FIELD2                   2
SEGMENT1         FIELD3                   2
Data in EDID4 would be as follows
IDOC           SEGMENT                          APPLICATION DATA
12345         SEGMENT1                        XYZ R Y
When you are extracting data from these tables into your internal table, mapping has to be as follows:
FIELD1 = APPLICATIONDATA+0(4)        to read first 4 characters of this field, because the first 4 characters in this field would belong to FIELD1
Similarly,
FIELD2 = APPLICATIONDATA+4(2).
FIELD3 = APPLICATIONDATA+6(2).
FIELD1 would have XYZ, FIELD2 = R, FIELD3 = Y
This would remain true in all cases. So all you need to do is identify which fields you want to extract, and simply code as above to extract the data from this table.
Hope this was helpful in explaining how to derive the data.

Error while extracting data from Generic datasource

Hello Gurus,
I have encountered an error "Errors in source system" with status red while extracting data from generic datasource into DSO.
I have done below things:-
1. Checked the jobs in source system, the job is successfully completed
2. The generic datasource is active and supporting delta with calender day in source system.
3. No TRfc error and no idocs stucked.
4. No short dumps in source system.
5. The delta queue(RSA7) is showing 0 with status as green.
6. Replicated the datasource On BW side and also activated the transfer rules by RS_TRANSU_ACTIVATE_ALL
The problem has not yet solved. Could you guys please suggest me what might be the reason for this error......
Thanks,
Sonu

Hello,
I have used the generic delta using calender day.
Safety upper limit : - 1
Safety lowerr limit : - 0
I have made the entries in va01 transaction, but the delta queus is not getting updated which should show 1.
Do Generic extraction require any job to transfer data from Database table to delta queue.
We are not able to get the delta records on BW side. Please suggest.
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Sonu

Extract data from Java to Excel

Apologies for my ignorance in this field but is it possible to extract data from a Java based application (stock charts and the like) directly into Excel? If so could someone please contact me and explain the process in very simple terms as i have no idea how Java works :o)
Many thanks.
Gilsey

Actually I should qualify my "Yes" answer. It is possible for a Java application to output data to Excel (using Jakarta POI for example). Whether it is possible to persuade an existing Java application to do that depends on the application. If it has been programmed to do it, then yes. Or if it has an underlying database where it stores its data, and you have access to that database, it might be possible to extract data from the database into Excel. Otherwise the programming of the application would have to be changed.
