2 Dimensions with the same master data

Dear all,
   In a application,I got 2 dimensions customer and ship-to customer.
   Technically, I maintain the data for both dimensions separately.
   From business point of view ,these 2 dimensions should point to the same master data.
   How can we deal this kind of scenarios in BPC in both MS and NW version ?
   In BW , we can create infoObject by referring  to other infoObject.
   The two infoObjects will share the same data storage( the data store in the same table). Dose BPC support this kind of function?
Thx,
Jeff

Hi,
As far as I know (MS Versions), you will have to have two different dimensions, meaning two different dim files (.xls) with their respective dim and mbr tables behind. You can not have the same table in the database serving two different dimensions.
What you can of course do is to automate the dimension/s update based on the same reference data. e.g. a DTS / SSIS process getting the data from the source and creating / updating the two physical dimensions in BPC based on a unique source.
Hope this helps,
Jc

  • Two Cube dimensions with the same name.

    Hi
    If I have a cube dimension that has the same name as another cube dimension, will this be an issue when quering the cube through 1) Excel 2) SSRS or Cognos Reports?
    For instance: The Database dimension DimOrganization exists in cube A as well as
    DimOrganization_Dep. Both dimension has the same attribute names and the same hierarchy names.
    Their database names are different. (object_ID and Object_name differs) 
    In the cube I change the name of DimOrganization_Dep to DimOrganization.
    This seem to work when I query the cube in Excel, the mdx looks like this;
    SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[AntalNotNull] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Dim Organization].[Yes- No].[ Yes- No].ALLMEMBERS * [Dim Organization].[Yes- No].[Yes- No].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME
    ON ROWS FROM [TEST] CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS
    Anyone knows if this kind of setup will result in problems when quering from SSRS reports or Cognos?
    And/or if even though I get it right in the cube (quering from Excel) it might as well give me the wrong result the next time?
    Cheers

    Hi
    Thanks for the reply.
    I have tried and yes I can change then cube dimension namn to that of another cube dimension.
    For instance if i have Cube Dimension "DimA" and "DimB" to begin with , then  I change the name of the cube dimension "DimB" to "DimA". So now I have two Cube dimensions with the same name.
    It works to deploy and process and Excel somehow understands which one is which.
    Both is present in the same cube as you can see from the MDX above.
    The tricky part is how does the mdx return the correct result when the mdx looks like this (and it dpoes return the correct result).?
    Cheers

  • Consolidation multiple STO PO to Create one Delivery with the same date

    Hi:
    Want to create one delivery notes from mutiple STO PO using VL10B.
    with the same delivery date.
    How to do it

    Basically the criteria to combine more than one STO into one single delivery
    is STO delivery date and receiving plant. If they are the same then one delivery
    is created and different delivery items are summed.
    Good reference available in SAP notes:
       386340 - Grouping purchase orders into one delivery using Vl10*
    There is more information in another existent thread:

  • Over write the existing master data with new master data.

    hi friends,
    we have 2 sources for master data text like source A and source B to load the master data text and as per requirement we have to stop load from source A. But if you check the master data target still the old records are existed (from Source A), if i try to delete those records as you know it is not allowing...and more over if we want to delet the mastr data we have delete the transaction data.
    In Mycase i don't want to delet the Transaction data and i need to over write the existing master data i.e Request A with Rquest B.
    Is there any solution for this issue.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sruthi.

    For overwriting the text from source B you have to have transformations from source B to your text datasource of your characteristic. Then you map the text coming from source B to the text for the characteristic.
    If it comes form source B the key for that characteristic with text, it will overwrite the text existed for that characteristic to the same key.
    For example you have 0employee and have a text datasource in source A which has employee_id and employee_name. In the Bw you have mapped in your transfer rules the employee_id to the employee_id and the employee_name to the employee_name. So for example you have extracted from source A the record:
    employee_id   employee_name
    0001               xpto
    If you have a same datasource of text coming from source B, if you do the same mapping in transfer rules in BW coming from source B, and you bring for example the record:
    employee_id   employee_name
    0001               zzzz
    You'll overwrite the old value of xpto to the new value zzzz

  • I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    I have a large number of photos imported into iPhoto with the dates wrong.  How can I adjust multiple photos (with varying dates) to the same, correct, date?

    If I understand you correctly, when you enter a date in the Adjust Date and Time window, the picture does not update with the date you enter.  If that is the case then something is wrong with iPhoto or your perhaps your library.
    How large a date change are you putting in?  iPhoto currently has an issue with date changes beyond about 60 years at a time.  If the difference between the current date on the image and the date you are entering is beyond that range that may explain why this is not working.
    If that is not the case:
    Remove the following to the trash and restart the computer and try again:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.iphoto
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iPhoto (There may be more than one. Remove them all.)
    ---NOTE: to get to the "home > library" hold down option on the keyboard and click on "Go" > "Library" while in the Finder.
    Let me know the results.

    I would like to use Formcentral form data to populate a pdf with the same fields.  Is that possible?

    Randy,
    We have an application that I would like to have in Formscentral.  That application is also in a larger PDF file that once filled in populates all the other forms below it (lease, credit check form, ect).  If the Application on Formscentral keep the same field names as the pdf can I pull the data from formscentral and sill populate the old application pdf so that all the forms below it will be also populated.

  • Filling a range with the same date in Numbers '09

    I know if you type a date in to a field and then drag the corner it will fill successive dates, but is there a way to fill a range of cells with the same date so I don't need to retype them each time?

    Create a pattern of what you want, then do "fill"
    Enter the same date in two or three cells, in a row or column, then drag to fill the range. Numbers should recognize the pattern you created and continue it.

    If you are using the same Apple ID on both devices, the Game Center profile should be the same.
    Check out this information from the iPad User Guide.  Try signing out of the Game Center on both devices and then sign back in with the correct Apple ID:
