Hi Anoop
Even when there is no data available, the extractor expects some message which says that there is no data available. You can try to fix this by changing the traffic lights option in the infopackage menu, if there is no data available you can have the request green with 0 records, so that it prevents running the extraction forever.

I've added in 0purch_group to my cube and I want to assign it using the master data attribute selection but it doesn't bring back anything to choose from. the attribute is 0mat_plant_purch_group and I've made it navigational. any ideas?

So do you say that you dont have mat_plant included in ur cube.
Then what are trying to get into the field with out a source field. How do you want to fill the value if you dont have mat_plant - i mean which of 100 values of matplant and attribute values should be populated.

Datasource for master data attributes : QUAN fields ?

Hi,
In the datasources for master data attributes (in R3), fields type QUAN are in the extraction structure but not in the datasource (for example field LFMNG is in extraction structure BIW_MVKE_S but is not in the datasource 0MAT_SALES_ATTR).
Is there a standard way to have these fields type QUAN in master data attributes ?
Otherwise I think to this solution :
=> add a field ZZLFMNG type DEC (DEC fields are in the datasource for master data attributes) in a structure append of BIW_MVKE_S
=> in the user-exit for master data attributes : move the value of LFMNG to ZZLFMNG
=> in the infosource in BW : assign an infoobject type QUAN to the field ZZLFMNG
What do you think of it ?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I'm adding this field LFMNG too, but after I update the roosfield table an error occurs in RSA6.
This error said that the MEINS field is hide in the DataSource. But we there isn't this field there. Someone knows what should I do?
Thanks!

Define transfromation-As master data attribute

Hello experts,
I have a 3.5 data flow DS> TR> CS-> UR-> ODS.
In this flow there is a field 0WBS element mapped to POSID from source in TR and in the UR its a straight map to 0WBS element in the ODS.
I also have a ZFIELD in the ODS which has an UR as Master data attribite of above 0WBS element.
Problem faced:
Now I need to map the same in a new BI 7.0 System using transfromation (Creation of DSO done exactly as in 3.5 ).
DS--> TRANS-> DSO
Looking at the transfer rules and the Update rules I incorporated all the same as in the 3.5 system.
Now I face only problem with the ZFIELD taking master Data attribute of 0WBS ELEMWNT when I check my transfromations.
In the Transfromation 7.0 I directly mapped POSID to my 0WBS element and then for ZFIELD I am mapping to have the rule as attribute of 0WBS_ELMENT in the rule details.
I am getting the following error.
InfoObject 0WBS_ELEMT cannot be used to read master data
Message no. RSTRAN066
Diagnosis
InfoObject 0WBS_ELEMT does not have the correct attributes to read master data for the target field.
System Response
The entry is deleted and the rule is invalid.
Procedure
Enter an InfoObject that has the InfoObject from the target as an attribute.
When I check my 0WBS info obj I see my ZFIELD is available as the attribute..
Could anyone help me to fix this transfromation.
Regards,

Hi,
The scenarion you explained is very much possible in BI 7.0. There must be something which might be missing.

How to change specified hierachy node to master data attribute automatic?

Dear BW experts:
How to change specified hierachy node to master data attribute automatically? I have a retail business: I have a fixed material group hierachy in R3 Retail ,Now I will extract the material group hierachy ,my goal is that the specified material group hierachy node as dimension in query ,not show hierachy level,So I need change specified material group hierachy node to material group's attribute.
Anybody solve the requests?
Thank you for your help in advance !

If I understand your requirement correctly, you need to have a specific Material Group Hierarchy level (Say Level 2) to be an attribute of Material Group. Usually, this level represents a Brand or Segment, or something with specific meaning.
If this is correct, here are the things you need to do:
1) Create an InfoOnject for this specific attribute representing the specified hierarchy level
2) Add this InfoObject to Material Group as an navigational attribute
3) Select this navigational attribute in your InfoProvider
4) Create a transformation routine for this navigational attribute in Material Group Transformation so that the specified hierarchy level for Material Group will be found and populated. The detail of this routine will depend on your specific requirement. Also, you have to make sure Material Group Hierarchy is updated before Material Group attributes are loaded. If you are not family with ABAP, please ask an ABAPer to help you for the Transformation Routine.
5) Include this navigational attribute in your query along with other required InfoObjects.
Hope this help and good luck!

Force read/refresh of master data attributes on query

Hi there,
We're having troubles with one input ready query that changes and attribute value (KYF) of one characteristic. That works fines and whe can save changed data on the infoprovider via DTP. Problem is when data is saved we need to refresh query as whe have both values on screen (original value as char attribute on rows) new value as input ready KYF, so after save we would like to see that both values are the same.
Is there any way of force query no to read from caché as whe are changing master data attributes. I read something about IF_RSMD_RS_ACCESS class that can be implemented on Master Data access and force it there but sounds really hard so if this is the way can some of you guys give us some help.
I hope I make myself clear on the explanation...
Thanks in advance,
Regards
Carlos

Dear All,
The recent days that I tried working on changing master data attributes through BPS didn't work out.The Primary reasons was that some of the attributes that I needed to change were not present in the transaction or planning cubes and the characteristics that are not part of your cube on which the planning area is based then you can not do changes on them.
This is my undestanding .Please correct me if I am wrong.
Besides , I was also thinking if we can do the same through portal.i.e retriving the master data infoobject ( based on the value seleceted for that infoobject by the user ) and its attributes in the portal , edit them and save them back so that the updated values goes back to BW master data infoobject data base tables and updates the value.
Eg . I have Natural Account master data infoobject in the BW with attributes fucntional area and expense center.Based on the user selection of any values for the Natural account lets say 01110 , then for 01110 natural account the portal should display the correspoding attributes values of fucntional area and expense center.Lets take this values as 10 , 20 respectively for fucntional area and expense center . What I want to do now is to change these attrbute values to 30 and 40 and I would like to save it back as the changed attribute values for that natural account for 01110 with new attribute values 30 & 40 respectively for fucntional area and expense center .
Is this possible through portal and BW?
Any idea on this would be appriciated.
Regards,
Ankit

Error while creating Data Source for master data attributes

Hi BI Experts,
Well its been some time for me that I have been part of Extraction in BI.I primarily handled reporting in my last assignments.
I was trying extraction with flat files in SAP BI 7(new to sap bi 7 but very much familiar with BW3.5) but failed in the activity during master data attributes and text upload in infoobject (say IOSP_Mat).
Here is the procedure that I did after creation of characteristic IOSP_Mat.I created a source system for flat file followed by data source for Master data attributes, i selected all the parameters correctly.i.e. csv file format, data seperator as ,
and other settings, now when i am trying to look at the proposed data in the next tab using Load example data.its not showing the desired result.The columns that I have maintained in Flat File is MAT_NUMBER and MAT_NAME (with say 100 data in the file)
same is the result when I am trying to load the text data too columns maintained are
(LANGUAGE MAT_NUMBER Short Description)(same 100 data).
now i used to rsa1old transaction to upload the file using 3.5 version.i created info source for master data/text/hierarchies for IOSP_Mat
now when trying to upload it using info package for master and text data,I observe its(the data) not maintained in the characteristic IOSP_Mat.
When I monitored ,I figured the data has not been even uploaded to the PSA level.
Can you BI experts tell me the answer for this.
Thanks,
Srijith

apologies to all of you for late response,
was busy with some other activities.
I don't remember the exact message,but I remember it was not loaded to even the PSA level.I will try it again and post the exact message.
Thanks again for your quick response.
Once again sorry to all of you for my late response

Where to set lock while loading master data attributes

Hello Experts,
I have two different datasources from ECC which loads into 0CUST_SALES attributes. I'm using two different DTP & transformation which are loading data in the this infoobject attributes.
When i try to load data, the DTP fails with an error message at "Updating attributes for InfoObject 0CUST_SALES Processing Terminated" & the job log says: "Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes".
Here what exactly LOCK means?
Thanks in advance.
Zakir Khan.

Hi,
The lock means that some program is updating the master data (a table) and at the same time other program can not update that same master data. When the first program completes the updation it will release the lock so that the other program can update this.
In your case you and schedule the DTP one after another.
Thanks

Ignore duplicate records for master data attributes

dear experts ,
how & where can i enable "ignore duplicate records" when i am running my DTP to load data
to master data attributes.

Hi Raj
Suppose you are loading master data to InfoObject and in PSA you have more than one records for Key.
Let's assume you are loading some attributes of Document NUmber ( 0DOC_NUMBER) and in PSA you have multiple records for same document number. In PSA this is not a problem, as Key for PSA table is technical key and which is different for every record in PSA. But this is a problem for InfoObject attribute table as more than one records for primary key ( here 0DOC_NUMBER) will create Primary Key consraints in database.
This issue can be easily avoided by selecting "Handle Duplicate Records" in DTP . You will find this option under *update" tab of DTP.

Read from master data attribute

Hi BI experts,
Here is a challenging question.
One of the FIGL infoprovider do not have infoobject 0company. Added 0company and set up update type 'overwrite'. Update method 'Master data attribute'. So 0company should read from the master data attribute of 0Comp_code.
Master data attribute loaded for 0comp_code. Did transaction data load for FIGL infoprovider.
But 0company is blank in FIGL ODS.
Any thoughts..
Thanks in advance

It should ideally pull the 0company, Otherwise try doing it thru Start routine ..
Create an internal table, pull company code and company from the master data table of Company code into this table.
Read from this table in your update routine and corresponding to the company code read the company and populate in your ODS.
It will also be better in performance compared to a master data look up !!!!!!!
Regards.

Transofmration : Master data attribute

Hello,
I am on NW 2004S BI and ECC 6.0.
In the transformation rule types, i can not find "Master data attribute of" .
If this is the case in this version,in the infocube, how to load the data for a particular IO, which is an attribute of another IO ?
In the older versions, in the update rules, i can select either source, constant, master data attribute of,routine etc ..
Any advice?
Regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
We have "Master Data Attribute" as a Rule type of Transformation in NW2004S BI also.
Where in the previous version BW3.x you have option to create the Master Data Read Rule only between
DataTarget to DataTarget
or
Infosource to DataTarget.
But, The New Enhancement of NW2004S BI is, Even you can read the Master Data Attribute in Transformation have builded between DataTarget (InfoCube or ODS) and DataSource also.
How to assign the InfoObject for Master Data Read?
Select Target Field.
Select the source InfoObject from where you want to read Master Data.
When you have to choose the "Master Data Read" as the Rule Type. Then You will get the entry block next to Rule Type.
Click F4, then it will give the Attribute automatically.
Hope this helps you.

Vamsi
