2 infopaks for 1 infocube

I have a big problem. I am trying to create an infocube with 2 DS. But this 2lis_13_vditm had already been used elsewhere in another infocube. Same with 2lis_11_vdkon. Now my infocube has to be filled with these DSes. But when I am creating the infopaks into for the DS it is showing both the infocubes as Datatargets. How to eliminate one and load into only one infocube?
Help required ASAP.
Thank you
Swetha

Hi Swetha,
Lets say your Datasource's as DS1 & DS2. In BI7, by default the data will be loaded only upto PSA. Since you have already loaded the data using the existing infopackages no need to create new infopackages. But you will have to create 2 new transformations & 2 DTP's.
Goto your cube & create a Transformation(say TR1) from DS1 to your cube. Then create a DTP(say DTP1) & execute the DTP1 to load the data from DS1 to cube.
Similarly  create a Transformation(say TR2) from DS2 to your cube. Then create a DTP(say DTP2) & execute the DTP2 to load the data from DS2 to cube.
Hope it is clear & helpful!

Pavan

  • Error while activating transformation for a infocube.

    hi experts,
    This is Lalitha.I am new to BI7.
    I am trying to load data from flatfile into infocube.I have loaded master data successfully.while creating datasource for transactional data i am getting warning  :External length specification will be ignored.
    Even then I was able to load data into PSA.Now i am trying to create transformation for the infocube, but I am getting a error :Conversion type missing
    and Field /BIC/IO_PRC9 must be assigned to an InfoObject
    I have mentioned the infoObjects for datasource in the fields tab.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    regards,
    Lalitha

    Hi,
    Some times we have to assign manually as system does not create automatically 1:1 rule in some cases which i don't know.
    Click on = at transformation and you will get the window, Under assign objects you can assign required fields to target field. this will clear your second error.
    For first error -
    If conversion type is missed for Price object. - Did you create the Price KF with Fixed currency or 0currency. if it is 0currency, in source system you should have one extra field with the units for Price field. As per iam concerned, If it is fixed currency it should activate - delete that particular transformation and recreate it.
    Thats what i used to do. i got the result.
    Have a fun

  • Include Special Periods into 12th period for Virtual InfoCube(0FIGL_VC1)

    Dear SDN,
    The following update routine is perfectly working for 0FIGL_C01 InfoCube...
    But some reports developed with 0FIGL_VC1 InfoCube....Still Special Periods are coming....
    The update routine could look like the following if it is 0FISCPER:
    IF COMM_STRUCTURE-FISCPER+5(2) > '12'.
      CONCATENATE COMM_STRUCTURE-FISCPER(4) '012' INTO RESULT.
    ELSE.
      RESULT = COMM_STRUCTURE-FISCPER.
    ENDIF.
    I want to eliminate special periods problem in 0FIGL_VC1 InfoCube also...
    All Special Periods should be in the 12 th Period..
    I have included code in the Update rules level ...
    But similarly how to do in the Virtual InfoCube, Which does not have update rules...
    Help will be greatly appreciated with points...
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi,
    Thanks for your quick reply,
    But here i am getting Special Periods for Virtual InfoCube...Whereas 0FIGL_C01--- Special Period problem resolved....
    I am also not understanding how come in 0FIGL_VC1 -- Special periods problem still existing..
    Pls provide a solution

  • Ratio between Fact table and Dimention table for a Infocube

    Hi All,
    How can we reduce the Ratio between Fact table and Dimention table for a Infocube below 20%.??
    please give suggestions

    Hi
    Reduce Ratio??
    The Ratios are dependent on the Fact Table, and the Dimension table that is modeled for your Cube.
    You cannot change ratio individually, but can set the Line Item Dimension , provided you have only one char object is taking much space and bulky with much percentage, based on your requirement. You can always use fine tuning objects.
    Please be more specific while posting, to get right help from sdn.

  • SID and/or DIMID buffering for an InfoCube

    In our current project we are discussing to set up SID and/or DIMID buffering for an InfoCube. we wanted to know whether it may lead to a remarkable increase of performance? If you possibly used this option in u201Creal lifeu201D, it would be great if you could share some documents or experience..

    Hi,
    in the "early watch report" from SAP there is a chapter of that topic.
    you can buffer dim table or master data sid's where you have many changes.
    => so, you can increase the loading performance, because the application server has more the 500 of the next keys.
    => when you shot down the SAP server, you lost the buffered key. Therefore some objects  you don't have to buffers, for example REQESTID - there are no gaps allowed.
    Do it.

  • Aggregates table name for an infocube ?

    May I know the aggregate table name for an infocube ? I want to see the loaded aggregate for an infocube, is there a physical table name created when we have aggregate for an infocube ? or the aggregates are created from the existing fact table of the ic ? Please reply.
    thanks
    DR

    Hi Daniel,
    1.Rollup is nothing but the InfoCube data is summarized into aggregates tables. Once initial filling finish, for regular deltas/daily loads we will do rollup.
    When you create aggregates, Dimension,F, E,V table will create. You can find these tables in se11 by giving <*aggregate technical name*> and press F4.Finally aggregated data will store at (/BIC/E< aggregate technical name>).
    2. Am not getting your second question “Will thesetables/views exist in the DB or just on the application layer ?”
    Thanks,

  • Prerequisites for an Infocube to crete BIA indexes

    Hi experts,
    I am very new to BIA. I have just loaded some data into a Cube and I want to create and fill BIA indexes. But before that I doubt whether we need to do any must-be-done activities such as roll up or compressing that particular request. Please guide me step by step approach to create BIA indexes starting from the load to the cube has been done. Thanks.

    Hi,
    I would like to ad that though technically there are no pre-requisits for an InfoCube to create BWA indexes, from a business side there is. This is assuming being on BW 7.x is not considered as a pre-req.
    1. In a BW only enviroment modeling is not very critical as space and selection are both ceheap and manual.
    2. Move to BWA and sudeenly space is a very expensive commodity, not only at the time of ourchase but also on an annual basis. In such an environment if re-modelign can reduce the Cube footprint by 30 to 60% then that company has to spend 30-60% less on blades and annual maintenence costs. Or fit 30-60% more cubes into the BWA. This one seems to be a no-brainer.
    3. A lot of time we run our queries from Multiproviders and go ahead and index all the Cubes. The in some cases user says that the query response is still the same. When we dive deeper we discover that the query, or Muptiprovider, is dependent on a reporting DSO. Well this reporting DOS must now either be converted to an InfoCube or one built on top for leveraging the BWA. This is a common 1st time mistake with some BWA installations - lessons get learnt quite rapidly
    But just at a high level these is a lot of business reasons to reshape the Cubes prior to BWA, or create 'RightModeled" Cubes on top of reporting DSO's. Companies will save manyfolds more in this process and enhance prformances that the cost for deployign this solution. - It's all automated now..

  • New InfoSouce for an InfoCube

    Hi experts,
    Would it be advisable not to use the autogenerated InfoSource for an InfoCube (name = 8xxxx), create a new InfoSource (name = Zxxxxx) and attach the InfoCube DataSource there? I am planning to create a new InfoSource for an InfoCube and add some additional Key Figures.....
    What are the disadvantages of doing this? Would this be a maintenace nightmare?

    Hi,
      I think there is a problem. While you create/generate export datasource from cube(datasource, infosource and mapping will be generated automatically). If you are assigning this perticular datasource to different infosurce(I am not sure it will work if you generate datasource again or activated cube). It will overwites the existing mappings. <b>Test it</b>.
      I think you are adding new fields in infosource to write some code in start routine. But its better to maintain new fields in targer and write field level routines by definig some global internal tables or variables, then you no need to enhace the infosource. And also you will not get any problems in future.
    Hope it Helps

  • Steps for Repartitioning Infocube in BI7

    Hi all,
    Plaese give me detailed steps for Repartitioning Infocube which is having Data & not having partitions ( Before ) in BI 7.
    2. Please provide significance of a) Adding Partitions
                                                   b) Merging Partitions
                                                   c) Complete Repartitioning Processing Options in the Repartitioning of Infoproviders Screen.
    Points will  assign.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Ram.

    Hi Ram,
    Repartitioning can be useful if you have already loaded data to your InfoCube, and:
    1.You did not partition the InfoCube when you created it.
    2. You loaded more data into your InfoCube than you had planned when you partitioned it.
    3.You did not choose a long enough period of time for partitioning.
    4.Some partitions contain no data or little data due to data archiving over a period of time.
    <b>Integration</b>
    All database providers support this function except DB2 for Linux, UNIX, Windows and MAXDB. For DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows, you can use clustering or reclustering instead. For more information, see Clustering .
    <b>Features
    Merging and Adding Partitions</b>
    When you merge and add partitions, InfoCube partitions are either merged at the bottom end of the partitioning schema (merge), or added at the top (split).
    Ideally, this operation is only executed for the database catalog. This is the case if all the partitions that you want to merge are empty and no data has been loaded outside of the time period you initially defined. The runtime of the action is only a few minutes.
    If there is still data in the partitions you want to merge, or if data has been loaded beyond the time period you initially defined, the system saves the data in a shadow table and then copies it back to the original table. The runtime depends on the amount of data to be copied.
    With InfoCubes for non-cumulatives, all markers are either in the bottom partition or top partition of the E fact table. Whether mass data also has to be copied depends on the editing options. For this reason, the partitions of non-cumulative InfoCubes cannot be merged if all of the markers are in the bottom partition. If all of the markers are in the top partition, adding partitions is not permitted. If this is the case, use the Complete Repartitioning editing option.
    You can merge and add partitions for aggregates as well as for InfoCubes. Alternatively, you can reactivate all of the aggregates after you have changed the InfoCube. Since this function only changes the DB memory parameters of fact tables, you can continue to use the available aggregates without having to modify them.
    SAP recommends that you completely back up the database before you execute this function. This ensures that if an error occurs (for example, during a DB catalog operation), the can restore the system to its previous status.
    <b>Complete Partitioning</b>
    Complete Partitioning fully converts the fact tables of the InfoCube. The system creates shadow tables with the new partitioning schema and copies all of the data from the original tables into the shadow tables. As soon as the data is copied, the system creates indexes and the original table replaces the shadow table. After the system has successfully completed the partitioning request, both fact tables exist in the original state (shadow table), as well as in the modified state with the new partitioning schema (original table). You can manually delete the shadow tables after repartitioning has been successfully completed to free up the memory. Shadow tables have the namespace /BIC/4F<Name of InfoCube> or /BIC/4E<Name of InfoCube>.
    You can only use complete repartitioning for InfoCubes. A heterogeneous state is possible. For example, it is possible to have a partitioned InfoCube with non partitioned aggregates. This does not have an adverse effect on functionality. You can automatically modify all of the active aggregates by reactivating them.
    <b>Monitor</b>
    You can monitor the repartitioning requests using a monitor. The monitor shows you the current status of the processing steps. When you double-click, the relevant logs appear. The following functions are available in the context menu of the request or editing step:
    Delete: You delete the repartitioning request; it no longer appears in the monitor, and you cannot restart. All tables remain in their current state. The InfoCube may be inconsistent.
    Reset Request: You reset the repartitioning request. This deletes all the locks for the InfoCube and all its shadow tables.
    Reset Step: You reset the canceled editing steps so that they are reset to their original state.
    Restart: You restart the repartitioning request in the background. You cannot restart a repartitioning request if it still has status Active (yellow) in the monitor. Check whether the request is still active (transaction SM37) and, if necessary, reset the current editing step before you restart. 
    <b>Background Information About Copying Data</b>
    By default, the system copies a maximum of six processes in parallel. The main process splits dialog processes in the background. These dialog processes each copy small data packages and finish with a COMMIT. If a timeout causes one of these dialog processes to terminate, you can restart the affected copy operations, after you have altered the timeout time. To do this, choose Restart Repartitioning Request.
    <b>Background Information About Error Handling</b>
    Even if you can restart the individual editing steps, you should not reset the repartitioning request or the individual editing steps without first performing an error analysis.
    During repartitioning, the relevant InfoCube and its aggregates are locked against modifying operations (loading data, aggregation, rollup and so on) to avoid inconsistent data. In the initial dialog, you can manually unlock objects. This option is only intended for cases where errors have occurred and should only be used after the logs and datasets have been analyzed.
    <b>Transport</b>
    Since the metadata in the target system is adjusted without the DB tables being converted when you transport InfoCubes, repartitioned InfoCubes may only be transported when the repartitioning has already taken place in the target system. Otherwise inconsistencies that can only be corrected manually occur in the target system.
    <b>Activities</b>
    You can access repartitioning in the Data Warehousing Workbench using Administration, or in the context menu of your InfoCube.
    You can schedule repartitioning in the background by choosing Initialize. You can monitor the repartitioning requests by choosing Monitor.
    Hope this helps

  • Metadata for a infocube

    Hello all,
    I can not find a standart infocube in metadata search in install business content section.

    I have installed it from BC before.And later  I have to delete it in RSA1.But now I can not reinstall it again.Could anybody help me?

    hi,
    tw104 seems the objects still 'repaired' in system,
    Transport Fail
    try to transport again with option :
    mark 'import request again' and 'overwrite objects in unconfirmed repair', (mark also 'overwrite original' if necessary).
    it's suggested to release the 'repaired' request in product system to avoid further transport error, to see which request, you may goto to the object display/edit, menu 'go to' < object directory entry', after a screen come out, click 'lock overview'. release the request with transaction se10.
    hope this helps.

  • The delta update for the InfoCube ZCUBE is invalidated

    Hi BI Experts,
    I am working on BW 3.5.
    For the datasource 2LIS_13_VDITM there were some requests(deltas) missing for 3 days.  So I got all the documents there were missing or not updated in BW. I deleted the setup tables and filled them with the new document numbers.
    I did a full repair request from the Infopackage level and the data got updated in ODS.
    But the DM Status is missing for all the requests in the ODS.
    And the data for the full repair request didnt get updated in the Cube and I got the following error:-
    The delta update for the InfoCube ZCUBE is invalidated. The can be due to one of the following:
    1. A request, which was already retrieved from the target system, was deleted from the InfoCube.
    2. A request, which was not yet retrieved from the target system, was compressed in the InfoCube.
    And the following delta was also not successfull.. How can I clear up this mess and ensure smooth flow of deltas. How can I set the DM status.
    Thanks
    Kumar

    Thanks for your reply.
    When I did a Full Repair Request on the ODS the data is in the New table and the DM status got reset(vanished). And the following day delta got failed( data for that request did not get updated in ODS and Cube)
    How can we bring back the DM Status and make the deltas successfull.
    Thanks

    hi,
    check in a sql client the sql created by Bi and the query that you use directy from your physical layer...
    The time between these 2 must be 2-3 seconds,otherwise you have problems.(these seconds are for scripts that needed by Bi)
    If you use "like" in your sql then forget indexes....
    For more informations about indexes check google or your Dba .
    Last, i mentioned that materialize view is not perfect,it help a lot..so why not try to split it to smaller ones....
    ex...
    logiacal dimensions
    year-half-day
    company-department
    fact
    quantity
    instead of making one...make 3,
    year - department - quantity
    half - department - quantity
    day - department - quantity
    and add them as datasource and assign them the appropriate logical level at bussiness layer in administrator...
    Do you use partioning functionality???
    i hope i helped....
