Activating master data

Hi,
I want to add a new record in the already loaded Master data.
I have added the record to be added in RSD1 and I saved it.
I am not sure how to activate it.
Can any body please help me on this.
Thanks a ton!!!
Regards,
Melissa

Hi......
To activate master data you have to run change run.........
The above said process is right..................
You can also go to SE38 >> Program : RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN >> execute >> give the infoobject >> then execute in background.........
If you execute it in background you can moniter the job in SM37...........job name will be RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN .....................
Hope this helps you.....

Debjani.......

How to find active master data source in the bw system

Hi
Can anyone guide me how to find the active master data source in the bw system

Hi,
You can use the table ROOSOURCE. The field ROOSTYPE specifies the type of datasource whether Transaction or attributes or text. You could write an abap program to filter the table and give you only master data datasources.
Assign points if helpful

Difference between Activating Master Data and Attribute Change Run

Hi
Is there any difference between Atribute change run and Activating Master data functionaaly???
if wha it is???
can any one explain clearly?
Thanks
Chinna

When u load master data and its attribute to ur data target and if u change any data or attributes of ur master data,in order to update new data to ur data target attribute change run is performed.
When u create a characteristic and if u keep it as master data and activated..it is master data activation
Activating Master Data
When you update master data from an SAP system the master data is imported in an inactive state. You must activate the new master data so that it can be accessed and used for reporting purposes.
For more information, see Versioning Master Data.
Choose the path InfoObject Tree Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate Master Data.
Upon Activation there are two scenarios to choose from:
The Corresponding Master Data Is Already Being Used in Aggregates in the InfoCube:
If you are already using the available master data in aggregates in InfoCubes, you cannot activate the master data individually. In this case, proceed as follows:
1. In the main menu, choose the path Tools Hierarchy/Attribute Change.
2. Proceed as described in System Response upon Changes to Data: Aggregate.
The system now automatically restructures and activates the master data and its aggregates.
Please note that this process can take several hours if the volume of data is relatively high. Therefore, you should simultaneously activate all of the characteristics that are affected by changes to their master data, at regular intervals.
The Corresponding Master Data Is Not Used in Aggregates:
Choose the path InfoObject Tree ® Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate.
The system now automatically activates the master data so that it can be used directly in reporting.
If there is any change r newly added records in master data..then that particular data will not b avialable for the reporting unless u do activate master data...
if u r using aggregates and then there is any change in master data ...then that particular master data change wil not b available for the reporting unless u do arrtibute change run for that info object.(T-code RSATTR)
Master data attributes and hierachies are used in cube aggregates also. So to do update the latest master data attributes values in the aggregtes attribute change run need to be performed.So Attribute change run also updates the master data attributes in aggregates which is not apart of master data activation.
Text loads do not need attribute change run. Attributes, hierarchies and aggregates need attribute/hierarchy change runs. If you do not have aggregates, just activating the master data is same as attribute change run.

Error While activating master data

Dear All,
I am getting an error while updating the master data.
Attributefrom characteristic A0SUBBRD not (actively) available
Attribute A4INNOCAT from characteristic A0BRD not (actively) available
Attribute A0BRD from characteristic A1MATR3 not (actively) available
Help me about to solve this issue
Thank you

Hi,
You are getting this error bcoz the mentioned info objects in the log are not active in the BW system.
make sure the characteristics are active and available in BW system before updating master data.
In which system are you facing this issue 9 DEV or QA or PROD)?
Have you collected all the objects while transporting? Try to retransport the objects it will work fine.

Data Source Activation - Master data u201CSource Not Activeu201D (Func. Mod. based)

Generated an export data source, message appears that it is u201CSuccessfully generatedu201D. I then selected the logical Source system and u201CReplicated all data sourcesu201D
I checked in RSA2 (data source repository in BI) and it exits.
Now that I am trying to use the generated datasource to load another MasterData Char Attributes, I get the error message u201DSource Not activeu201C, I am trying to create a transformation from 1st infoObjectu2019s export datasource to this object (both are of the same type etc)..
I am aware that we can use the program RSDS_DATASOURCE_ACTIVATE_ALL but this only works if we can see the datasource is RSDS (which I can not for this Datasource, perhaps the reason being that it is Function Module based? )
How else I could activate it? What other steps I should take or anything that can help me?   Please give your suggestions and I will say THANKS the SDN way.

I had the same problem today with an export DataSource generated on a planning area in our production SCM system.
I debugged running RSDS_DATASOURCE_ACTIVATE_ALL in our QA system for the same DataSource amd saw that the program calls function module RSDS_DATASOURCE_COLLECTION_ACT to do the activation. I ran the function module in production using the same parameters.
Our DataSource is 9A_PRG_PA for source system SCP100. I used SE37 to run function module RSDS_DATASOURCE_COLLECTION_ACT with these parameters:
I_T_OBJNM     9A_PRG_PA                     SCP100
I_WITH_CTO
I_CONTEXT     'ACTIVATE_ALL'
I_FORCE                     X
This made an active version of the DataSource appear, and I was then able to run RSDS_DATASOURCE_ACTIVATE_ALL to activate it properly.
Cheers,

Problem in Activating Master Data 0mat_plant!!

hi David,
You mentioned that you faced the same problemm
I am having the same problem activating the 0mat_plant...
It is says that the object status is inactive & try to activate it...
Can you tell me what u did???
The steps I did was....
Hi All,
I am adding a navigational attribute to 0mat_plant...
& after that when I am activating 0mat_plant, it throws an error as follows:
Diagnosis:Errors arose when activating InfoObject 0MAT_PLANT. An active version already existed before the activation.
System Response:InfoObject 0MAT_PLANT could not be reset to the old active version. Since the generated objects no longer correspond to the old active version, they were reset to inactive.
Procedure:The old active version of InfoObject 0MAT_PLANT can no longer be used. Remove the cause of the activation error and activate InfoObject 0MAT_PLANT anew.
Pls help me with this issue ASAP...
Thanks

Master Data Activation methods?

Hi Brothers,
in my dissertation I compare different methods of how to activate Master Data.
What methods for activating Master Data are there? I know the following:
directly setting OBJVERS from M to A
using a function module e.g. RSDMD_MD_ACTIVATE
What are disadvantages of directly setting OBJVERS from M to A?
Thanks, Johannes

Johannes,
I am not sure if setting the field to A alone will work - the reason being that there is a host of other activities being performed - like :
Generation of SIDs for new values...
Check Aggregates and TREX Indices where this exists - the reason for this is that once you activate master data - the particular info object will get displayed in the Attribute change run monitor.... and hence you will have to account for all these..
Once you go through the function module that you have highlighted and drill into the code you will understand what is happening...

Master Data is not appearing in Info Object

Hi Experts,
I have loaded text data from data source 0WS_QUEST_TEXT to info object 0WS_QUEST. While running DTP, Load monitor displays 12 records are added to info object.
Also while activating master data it gives error: "Master data for characteristic 0WS_QUEST already active"
When i select Display Data option by right clicking on Info Object 0WS_QUEST, no data is displayed.
Please let me know whether I am missing any step while loading master data.
Please note that info package has already run and data is there in PSA.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Niranjan

Hi,
Just go to Infoobject and right click and select option maintain master data.
Don't put any value and just execute.since there are only 12 records,it should show all the records .
You can also check text table data by getting inside that object directly or through SE11/SE16 option.
When the records are activated ,it will not activate it again,so it is not error,its just a message.
Let me know if u have any further doubts.
Thanks and regards

Upload transaction data first BW report don't have master data description

Hi All Expert,
Im newbie to BW.
When i do my task, i upload the transaction data first and then upload the master data (customer, vendor) secondly.
When i viewing my BW report, it didn't show up the Name of customer and vendor.
Izzit because the order of upload transaction data and master data is wrong so i got this problem?
How can i solve this problem? (because i try to reupload the master data again, the name field still blank)
Hope someone can advice or help me.
Thank you very much.

Check in the master data infoobject whether the texts are loaded or not. If not, load the master data texts from your source system.
Just right click on the master data infoobject and click on "Active master data".
If still it doesn't activate, go to Menu --> Tools --> Attribute change run.

Not getting 'M' version of master Data

Hi SAP Gurus,
In SAP BI, I loaded Master Data (say vendor data) with Flat file and getting all the data in 'A' version & not in 'M' version.
What my assumption was: firstly the data should be in M version and then after activating Master data InfoObject, the data should go to Active version.
What i wanted is to have data in M version for all the data in new flat file irrespective of whetehr that data exists or not.
pls let me know
Thanks....

Hi there,
Thats the normal behaviour of the system.
The status 'M' only appears when modified data goes into your master data, otherwise it will always be in status 'A' active, that's why for new records you don't need to activate your master data, only to changed attributes.

0vendor is not displaying name attribute when I maintained master data.

0vendor is not displaying name attribute when I maintained master data.
Details: I have four records in the 0vendor infoobject (sand box). I have to show these four records to the client. As i have free hands I maintained master data in the name field and finally activated master data. But when I add the name attribute to the vendor charecteristic in the query designer; it is displaying name attribute as # . Any idea how to display the names of the four vendors in the zquery.
Also do you know the transaction to copy standard query to Zquery?
Thanks in advance.

Dear Les
For 0VENDOR, Set Property as Key & Text, try once again.
Yes, you can copy the standard query very well.
Open the Standard query & using SAVE AS, you can copy to "Z" queries.
Hope, now you will get some idea

Master data values(navigational attributes) are not turning up in the cubes

Hi all,
I have a cube, which contains 0cust_sales as master data and i have clicked on the navigational attributes of 0cust_sales like customer grp1, 2,3,4,5 etc
But then i have the 0cus_sales number 6100034 with all the navigational attributes turning up when i look up at the master data in the quality system.
But then for the same customer number i can see the customer number but no navigational attributes are turning up!!
I have activated master data and the master data contents are active!!
Can anyone pls update me on this!!
Thanks
Pooja

Hi
It is not part of dimension only 0CUST_SALES is part of dimension,
And ocust_sales-customer grp1, 2,3,4,5 are navigational attributes in the info cube. I have just included them as navigational attributes enabled in the info cube.
And when i loaded the data for customer say 6111035 from the ods to the cube. I can see the data for customer 6110035 but cant see the navigational attributes getting populated.
But when i look at the same in the master data for 0cust_sales i can see the values for the navigational attributes too!!
Thanks
Pooja
