2LIS_03_BX Marker

I have received many help to understand inventory management.
One very helpfull indication was "How to handle inventory management scenarios in BW".
I have one question about the marker.
As I understood, after executing all the steps of 2LIS_03_BX the opening stock is posted in the InfoCube to a point in infinity (for example 0CALDAY = 31.12.9999).
This is the reference point, the "marker".
After that the marker is updated by successive uploading deltas (2LIS_03_BF) and compressing.
The question:
How can I physically read and select the markers from the InfoCube?
For example read it with an ABAP routine and write into a table?
Is it really posted (physically) with this 0CALDAY?
Because I tried to read it using the common interfaces (Manage the IC, or Display Data), no return.
Also tried to read directly the dimension table of time, but no return.
Is there any other characteristic to identify the markers?
Thanks in advance

Hi Sabrina,
usually you load 2LIS_03_BX with a full update and compress this request updating the marker.
Then you load 2LIS_03_BF initializing the delta process and compress this request without updating the marker. In fact, the opening stock has already been loaded with the full update from 2LIS_03_BX and the marker has already been consistently updated. The init loading from 2LIS_03_BF contains exactly those movements which determine this opening stock balance.
Then you're going to load the deltas from 2LIS_03_BF. These new requests will need to be compressed with marker update. This way, the marker will have the correct stock balance, which will change as a consequence of these new movements.
The question is: What would you do when you don't load from 2LIS_03_BX, thus the marker not beeing initialized?
Cheers, Davide

Marker update for Inventory data sources

Hi all,
why we use marker update in Cube manage for inventory data sources at the time of loading?
i heard that to avoid the keyfigures cumulation we do check that option ,is that correct/
please clear my doubt

Compression failed - Inventory Cube - 2LIS_03_BX

HI Experts,
the compression of the initial request from datasource 2LIS_03_BX failed. The compression will be done with "no marker update".
On the development system it works fine, but on the test system the compression failed. The time dimension is with 0FISCPER and 0FISCYEAR.
All checks with RSDV are successfull.
Please find below the Job Log. Have anyone an idea ?
Thanks

The Problem is the time period 0FISCPER....
When I substitue it with 0CALMONTH and so on it works!

Inventory Management (Advanced - Marker update)

I have been following your discussion regarding Inventory Management and the use of 2LIS_03_BX and 2LIS_03_BF extractors, and I have also been studying the How to guide on Inventory Management.
I am currently only using 2LIS_03_BF with no data restriction in the setup-run or in the initialization. The stock balance is correctly even though I am not using 2LIS_03_BX (because the sum of all historical movements equals the current balance).
But I am facing performance problems because I am not using compression. I am considering 2 solutions:
Solution A (the easy)
1. Compression on all request (with marker update)
Solution B (as suggested in the How-to-guide)
1. Delete InfoCube data
2. Generate new balance with 2LIS_03_BX
3. Compression of 2LIS_03_BX (with marker update)
4. Reconstruct old 2LIS_03_BF requests from PSA
5. Compression of old 2LIS_03_BF requests (No maker update - because all these will new be considered historical in relation with the newly generated stock balance).
6. Future deltaloads from 2LIS_03_BF and compression (with marker update).
As I see both solutions will solve the problem but A is by far the easiest. I would like your opinion!
When you do the marker update during compression does it matter wether you do it as described in the how-to-guide I can you do it as follows instead:
1. Compression of Historical Movements (2LIS_03_BF) (with marker update)
2. Compression of Stock balance (2LIS_03_BX) (No marker update)
3. Compression of Future Movements (2LIS_03_BF) (with marker update)
As I see the only important thing is that you do the marker update with eitherHistorical Movements (2LIS_03_BF) or Stock balance (2LIS_03_BX), but not both of them or none of them. I am not 100% sure but please give me your opinion.

Hello Thomas,
I have never tried doing the marker update other way around (through BF instead of BX), but I don't see any reason why it will not work. You are right that marker update should be done either with snapshot or material movement as both datasources bring same data at different granularity level. Solution A seems to be simpler and straightforward, but I am not sure if there will be any impact on performance if we update the marker intially with lot of requests from BF instead of a single BX request.

Praveen

Marker update or not.

hi xperts,
I am working on Inventory management Can any body give me idea which of the Following are correct
1.2lis_03_bx -- should be "No marker Update" is not set- is it right?
2.2lis_03_bf - should be "No marker Update" should be ticked- is it right?
3.2LIS_03_UM - should be "No marker Update"should be ticked- is it right?
I have to do this in the Compression screen of the manage infocube right?
Please confirm me,as i am not sure.

Hi,
1) correct
2) BF Delta init and BX is not used: then should be "No marker Update" should not be ticked.
BF Delta init and BX is used: then should be "No marker Update" should be ticked.
3) UM Delta init and BX is not used: then should be "No marker Update" should not be ticked.
UM Delta init and BX is used: then should be "No marker Update" should be ticked.

Compressions with No marker updates

Hi experts,
What is the purpose of compressing the request of 2lis_03_bx
with No marker update not set and compressing the request of
2lis_03_bf with No marker update set ?
Full points will be assigned.
V N.

Hi,
BX is a one time load used for initializing the stocks and BF and UM are run regularly as deltas. The marker updates are very important so as to give the correct stock values.
For more information check the thread below :
Delta for 2LIS_03_BX
Also please search the forums as these topics have been discussed in great detail.

No marker update for delta

Hi,
We compressed our inventory cube as listed below. I realized that deltas can be compressed with "No Marker Update" unselected, in order to update marker. This will improve the query performance. But I compressed deltas with "No Marker Update" Selected for about 3 weeks. Is it possible to compress further deltas with "No Marker Update" unselected.
2LIS_03_BX ---> "No Marker Update" Unselected
2LIS_03_BF Initial ---> "No Marker Update" Selected
2LIS_03_BF Delta ---> "No Marker Update" Selected
Thanks in advance,
Natalia

This is what I did in a similar situation
- Cleared delta queue by running the load twice
- Compressed existing requests without marker
- Identified the marker key (Package dimension table - key for RECORDTP = 1) , this will be one DIMID value
- Deleted all entries for this DIMID from E and F tables and then the P dimension table (effectively removing the marker from the cube). This was done using ABAP
- Ran setup again (with no txn being posted in the system), brought 2LIS_03_BX again, compressed with marker.
Try only if you are comfortable with it. If you prod cube has lots of data, this may be worth a try before you decide to reload.

What is the link between 2lis_03_bf,2lis_03_bx and 2lis_03_uM

HI,
what is the link between 2lis_03_bf,2lis_03_bx and 2lis_03_uM.is these datasources to be loaded in the order.can anybody explain me

Hi
These three datasources are related to inventory. BF is for opening stock, BX is for material movements and UM is valuations. Before loading this data into BW you need to maintain some settings in R/3 side.
According to SAP NOTE:315880.T-code BF11.Activate the flag NDI will reflect in table "TBE11" For the entry "NDI".
2. set the application indicator 'BW' to active using Transaction 'BF11' . which will make tick mark(x) for the field AKTIV for the APPLK ='BW' in table TBE11.
3. Activate the PROCESSKEY under "Maintain Industry Sector"
4. Generated "STOCK INITIALIZATION" for 2LIS_03_BX.
5. Filled setup tables for "INVENTORY CONTROLLING"
6. Scheduled the InfoPackage for 2LIS_03_BX with update mode "GENERATE INITIAL STATUS.
then load BF and UM
There is a PDF available how to load inventory..just search for it in SDN.

How to fetch data from 2lis_03_bx and 2lis_03_bf

Hello Guys,
I have to create an inventory report for which i would have to use 2lis_03_bf and 2lis_03_bx for last consumption date and valuated stock value respectively. But when i am looking into rsa3 for these Datasource, i am finding nothing there.
Please suggest how would i get data from there.
Thanks & Regards,
Dolly

Thanks Vishnu.
I performed step 1 but by mistake i did it twice ..
so now double data records are visible in rsa3 .....
please suggest

Stock marker

Dear all,
I loaded the 2lis_03_bx to 0ic_c03 cube on Feb 02, after finished the initialization the current stock in R/3 on Feb 01.
and then I compressed the request containing the opening stock which was just loaded, with marker update.
Is it true that only the non_*** KF are loaded through Bx, while these non_*** KF do not exit in cube? if that the case, how can I check the stock marker(reference point) in cube at this point? and are the stock marker(reference point)non_*** or *** KF??
Thank you for your input.
Ping

Hi Praveen,
Thank you very much for your explain.
But i am not clear in how can I validate the Non_*** KF in BW with R/3? for example I want to know whether '0BLOCKEDSTK' is calculated in BW correctly or not. It comes from '0RECBLOSTCK'(infow) and '0ISSBLOSTCK'(outflow).
When I run the query in BW with the date range from Feb 01 2006 till Feb 06 2006, I get the Blocked stock for material 10-100 is -2; while my R/3 people saying that in R/3, Ending Inventory blocked in January 11 units, Current inventory blocked 9 units;
and transaction LISTCUBE, I define the material =10-100, with 0calday from Feb 01 2006 till Feb 06 2006, I got 0ISSBLOSTCK on Feb 02 is 3 with movement type 343, and 0RECBLOSTCK are all 0 during these days...
so I don't why the data from BW query (-2) does not match to 9 in R/3. and how and what is the good way to validate the non-*** KF ?
any help is great appreciated!

2LIS_03_BX records x 2

Hi there,
I am loading 0IC_C03 and loaded already 2LIS_03_BX as per how to´s and several other nice threads indicate.
Went through several documentation like:
/people/ranjit.rout/blog/2009/06/14/10-important-points-to-consider-while-working-with-inventory-management
or 1548125 - Interesting facts about Inventory Cubes
Though I am facing an issue never faced on previous clients (when working with BF).
When loading BF it x2 whatever movement is done.
1) That is if BX brings            on 19.05 for    2 UN     whereas
2) BF Initial brings mov. 101 frm 18.01          2 UN
3) if i run query when step 1, only loaded BX, it shows stock = 2 UN = ok
4) If i run query when step 2, BX + BF Initial for 19.05        = 4 UN = not ok
So it adds the BF initial to BX value. (!!)

Hi,
The Extractor 2LIS_03_BX is used for Intial Load , which sets the Marker if you have referred that document.
So it depends If you have intially filled the Stocks how you want to load the 2LIS_03_BF extractor.
Generally in Clients with Less Data , we use only BF and fill the stocks.

2LIS_03_BX Unable to go into ODS

Has anyone experienced the following problem and how have you handled it?
On my current project we are setting up the standard Material Stocks/Movements cube (0IC_C03). We want to make a slight modification to configuration though. We want each of the 3 standard extracts to feed an ODS which will feed the cube (so we would have 3 ODS's).
We can correctly create all 3 ODS's but when we attempt to create the update rules from infosource 2LIS_03_BX to its corresponding ODS, BW will not show us any of the key figures. These key figures are on both the infosource AND the ODS, but we cannot map the update rules (and when we run a load no key figures come across). This only happens with this infosource (2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM are fine).
Any ideas?

Here you can try the extractor 2LIS_40_S278:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/d0/ab878006e211d4af16080009d2232d/frameset.htm
but, if you note, It is before of BW 3.1 version....
>= 3.1 you can use the Infosource you have installed
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/41/3d773d75316411e10000000a114b54/frameset.htm
It's possible that you did not install it completely (i.e. report RMCBINIT_BW)
Bye!

2LIS_03_BX - How to Query Stock Init Values

Hi,
     I have just loaded/Initialized 0IC_C03 Inventory InfoCube with 2LIS_03_BX and would like to set up a query for users to validate just the Stock Init Values. From what I can tell it looks like Stock Init Values are not available for query due to record type 1.
Is there any way around this so I can have my users report and validate the 2LIS_03_BX Stock Init Values with a BW Query? (without having loaded 2LIS_03_BF)
Thanks!

Hi kenneth,
BX -- Data source is used for extracting an opining stock balence.
1. Do the Initialization of the stock(opining balence ) in ECC system T- Code MCNB.
2. Filling of setup tables.
3. After Initializing check the data source opening balence.
4. Run the infopackage.
5. After getting the request into cube compress the request containing the opening stock that was just uploaded.
    Make sure the " No marker update " indicater is not set In Collapse tab.
       After that ypur report.
   All the best...........
Thanks & Regards,
Mahesh.

Mid 2010 Macbook Pro +1000 Euro repair costs (no external marks)

Hello together,
I am looking out for some advise. My mid 2010 Macbook Pro 15inch with an anti glare display just got a new logic board. I paid more than 500 Euro at a Premium Reseller called mStore in Kiel (Germany) to replace it, because the display stayed black after booting. My Macbook didn't even have a single external mark or scratch on the housing. I accepted it and said to myself if it is working again, it is alright. But less than two month later a vertical line is drawing from the top frame to the bottom (see photo). The line is narrow, it is just one pixel, but it is really annoying because it is always in sight. I went to the same reseller and asked what to do, they recommend a second repair attempt for again 500 Euro. In less then two month I cannot afford +1000 Euro for a laptop with an actual value of about 1100 Euro.
What is the best thing to do now?
I am really disappointed by Apple's quality. I am 24 years old and everybody in my family is using Apple computers since I can think back. The first time I could call a Mac my own was when I was 13.
When I graduated from school I was 19 and worked in a hospital to finance a new iBook G4. I had this one for about four years and it has been traveling with me through New Zealand and Asia for more than a year. I never had any issue with it, even when I dropped it from the top bank in a dormitory. It is still alive and working fine.
When I started studying the time came to buy an Intel Mac (15'' Macbook Pro, anti glare) and again I was very happy with the quality. I have also been a huge advocate for Apple products and was confidently suggesting them to friends and family. But today I feel disappointed by the brand.
Best
Marco

I had the same problem on a display MBP 15" in 2010, and it is a display problem recognised by Apple.
It was covered by the warranty.
If you do nothing, the number of vertical pixel lines will increase over time.
Good that Apple helped you out of this problem.

My pictures will not open. When I click on them they only display a grey triangle and an exclamation mark inside it.

I know how I messed it all up.
I opened up Finder from the bottom dock and saw all my files including pics. Trying to free up as much space as possible on my pc I selected all and then deleted it. I thought because it is all in iphoto ,deleting it from Finder will not take it off everywhere. Later on I emptied the trash. When I finally realised that I had messed up I just went back on Time Machine and restored.
Now I can see what looks like all the files again it is there in Finder but when I try and open the pics in iphoto it simply shows a grey triangle with an exclamation mark in it?
I tried dragging them all into my iphoto from Finder but it said I do not have enough space.
Please help I am new to Apple.

1 - NEVER make any changes of any sort tot he content or structure of the iPhoto library using the finder - there are no user servicable parts in it
2 - what did you restore from Time Machine? and how did you restore?
3 - how much free space do you have on your hard drive?
