Adding a table (JCDS) to a copy package

We have used TDMS many times now, and our end users have identified a table they would like to add to our transfer. Table JCDS.
Question, Does anyone know how to add a table to a copy package?
The step "Select Tables for reduction" does not appear when we choose to copy an existing package to transfer data again.
Thanks,
Anthony

I am assuming you mean TDTIM type package though not sure how you can re-use a TDTIM package.
You may not find this table in the reduction activity since it may be defined as u201Cno transferu201D in Config.
To set it transferable go to transaction CNVMBTCOBJ and set this table as transferable by unchecking No Trans flag.

Very urjent (What is the procedure for adding a table documentation to IMG)

Hi abapers,
It was very urjent,
What is the procedure for adding a table documentation to IMG entries.
(It does not have "deletion" information, but there is a section on making changes to Z tables and then updating the IMG, which presumably could be expanded for deletion of objects.)
I having the procedure, But that is not clear.
Can any body tell me step by step.
With regards.

Hi,
Assign IMG Documentation
Prerequisites
You have opened the IMG structure in change mode and created an IMG activity.
Procedure
Choose the Document tab in the Assigned objects group box.
If you want to create a new document for the IMG activity, enter a name for the document and choose Create.
The name can contain alphanumeric characters and the special character "_".
You go to the text editor. Specify a package class when you save the text. You return to the previous initial screen with Back.
To use an existing document, choose the Assign other document pushbutton to the right of the document name. Choose an existing document and choose Copy.
Save the changes with IMG activity Save.

Adding a table to an existing table results in wrong link

This is the code being used to add a table to a report:
private ISCRTable AddLinkTable(ILinkTable linkTable, string sourceTableAlias, ConnectionInfo connectionInfo)
{ // construct a new Table from its name
ISCRTable newTable = new Table();
newTable.ConnectionInfo = connectionInfo.Clone();
newTable.Name = linkTable.LinkTableName;
newTable.Alias = linkTable.LinkTableName + "_ThisIsTheLinkTable" + LinkTableId++;
if (_dataServiceSettings.DataProvider == DataProvider.Oracle11G)
newTable.QualifiedName = _dataServiceSettings.DatabaseUserName.ToUpper() + "." + newTable.Name.ToUpper();
else
newTable.QualifiedName = "dba." + newTable.Name;
// add a field to this new Table
newTable.DataFields.Add(AddDbField(linkTable.DataField, newTable.Alias));
// join this table to another one named sourceTableAlias, using linkFields TableLink
tableLink = new TableLink();
tableLink.SourceTableAlias = sourceTableAlias;
tableLink.TargetTableAlias = newTable.Alias;
tableLink.JoinType = CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeEqualJoin;
Strings sourceFields = new Strings();
Strings targetFields = new Strings();
for (int i = 0; i + 1 < linkTable.LinkFields.Length; i += 2)
sourceFields.Add(linkTable.LinkFields[i]); targetFields.Add(linkTable.LinkFields[i + 1]);
tableLink.SourceFieldNames = sourceFields;
tableLink.TargetFieldNames = targetFields;
TableLinks tableLinks = new TableLinks();
tableLinks.Add(tableLink); _report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.AddTable(newTable, tableLinks);
_report.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.VerifyTableConnectivity(newTable);
//AddFieldToReport("{" + newTable.Alias + "." + linkTable.DataField + "}");
return newTable;
This is the resulting query SELECT "Article"."ArtId", "Article"."ArtDescr", "ArticleGroup"."AgDescr1", "Article"."ArtPurchLevel", "Article"."ArtMaximum", "Article"."ArtAbc", "Article"."ArtContext", "Article"."ArtPurchPrice", "Article"."ArtServOutUnt", "ArticleSite"."ArtsSitId", "Article"."ArtRecStatus"
FROM (dba.Article "Article" LEFT OUTER JOIN dba.ArticleGroup "ArticleGroup" ON "Article"."ArtAgId"="ArticleGroup"."AgId")
INNER JOIN "10_78_00"."dba"."ArticleSite" "ArticleSite" ON "Article"."ArtId"="ArticleSite"."ArtsPurch" WHERE "Article"."ArtContext"=1 AND ("ArticleSite"."ArtsSitId"='63'
OR "ArticleSite"."ArtsSitId"='64') AND "Article"."ArtRecStatus">=0 ORDER BY "Article"."ArtId"
the link field artspurch is not the field I declared . It happens to be the first column of the table ArticleSite. This seems to be a bug. has anyone ever experienced anything like this?

Hi Henk,
What was the SQL before you added the table?
I reformatted your code but you may want to confirms it correct or simply copy it into Notepad and then paste into this post.
I find the easiest way to confirm is ad the table and joins in CR Designer first and then look at what Debug mode returns using this:
btnReportObjects.Text = "";
string crJoinOperator = "";
foreach (CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.TableLink rasTableLink in rptClientDoc.DataDefController.Database.TableLinks)
 //get the link properties
 btnCount.Text = "";
 int y = rptClientDoc.DataDefController.Database.TableLinks.Count;
 btnCount.Text = y.ToString();
 string crJoinType = "";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeAdvance)
 crJoinType = "-> Advanced ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeEqualJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> = ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeGreaterOrEqualJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> >= ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeGreaterThanJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> > ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeLeftOuterJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> LOJ ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeLessOrEqualJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> <= ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeLessThanJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> < ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeNotEqualJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> != ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeOuterJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> OJ ->";
 if (rasTableLink.JoinType == CrTableJoinTypeEnum.crTableJoinTypeRightOuterJoin)
 crJoinType = "-> ROJ ->";
 textBox1 = "Only gets Link type:" + rasTableLink.SourceTableAlias.ToString() + "." + rasTableLink.SourceFieldNames[0].ToString() +
 crJoinOperator + "." + crJoinType + rasTableLink.TargetTableAlias.ToString() + "." + rasTableLink.TargetFieldNames[0].ToString() + "\n";
 btnReportObjects.Text += textBox1;
 btnReportObjects.AppendText(" 'End' \n");
There are some join types RAS is not capable of.
Attach the report before and after you manually add the join and I'll see if I can get it to work also.

( PS - use the Advanced option to attach files and rename the reports to *.txt. )

Error with standard Copy package

Hello!!
When I run the standard copy package selecting the option "Replace & clear data values" the execution finishes with status error and I receive the next error message in the log:
Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: '[Invalid time Member] - EN_NONE|DSP_INPUT|2004_UPA_SEPT|' Key being added: '[Invalid time Member] - EN_NONE|DSP_INPUT|2004_UPA_SEPT|'
If I run the package with the option "Merge" it executes OK.
Anybody help?
Thank you in advance

Hello,
You probalby get this error message beacuse you have not setup the Work Status for this application. Please defined the Work Status you want to use on the appset level and then define the dimensions you want to use to control the work status on the application level. That should solve your issue.

Adding additional tables to the extractor configuration

Hi Experts,
Can you please help me adding additional tables to the SAP extractor and to configure the field data in the orgstructure to show a flag against the position.
Luke - I have tried using the option said by you from Application-wide Settings-->Data Centre --> Read SAP Table, it has properly save the added table, but not able to see it from SAP extractor configruation and not able to extract any data. Also, can you please guide me how to use the fields from this table (HRP1010) to write a small piece of logic to show a flag for a particualr position based on data.
Thanks in advance,
Purandhar

Hi Purandhar,
I have tried using the option said by you from Application-wide Settings-->Data Centre
--> Read SAP Table, it has properly save the added table, but not able to see it from
SAP extractor configruation and not able to extract any data.
This has probably added a data element - I would check in the dataelementconfiguration folder in your build's .delta folder. IF so then you have the first step completed. Now you need to add the necessary configurations to use the data that comes through this data element.
Go to your orgchart/hierarchy and navigate to Views. Here select your view (or your first view if this needs to be done for more than one view - if so you'll need to repeate these steps but not the step you already did in the Data Centre), and then click the + icon next to Design Details. Here you can add a new linked detail to your view detail. Simply give it a name, select the detail to link it to (usually the top level detail which is in blue), select a link field and then select your data element that was created in the Data Centre.
Now if you try to add a section to your view inside the Design Details view designer you will see your new detail added. You can then select it and add fields from this detail.
Also, can you please guide me how to use the fields from this table (HRP1010) to write
a small piece of logic to show a flag for a particualr position based on data.
Once you have been able to add the data in the views designer you will probably need to do some XML and XSL editing because you cannot edit XSL files in the AdminConsole and you will need to do this to get your icon/flag to show.
First of all you need to create a new XSL file and put it into a folder in your .delta\root folder. For example, My_XSL_files. Here you need to write the code to render your flag based on your variable. You can find plenty of examples in all of the pre-existing XSL files. Then you need to copy PresentationResources.xml to .delta\root\XML and add the reference to your new XSL file.
Go to your build's .delta folder and go to detailconfiguration. Find the detail you just created and open it. You'll find a section in their that you just added with a reference to an XSL file (e.g. if you added a Simple Caption section it will probably be something like SimpleCaptionXSL). Change this to the reference in the PresentationResources.xml.
Load your build in the AdminConsole and hit Publish. Once done you should see your icon. Sometimes if your XSL is invalid or the code doesn't work you won't see anything. This is not unusual as the whole process can be quite tricky - even for us with lots of experience!
Good luck!
Luke

Adding to Tables in CS4

I'm having some issues with adding to tables in my files. These are pre-existing files i'm being asked to edit, and there are no table or cell styles set up. I feel dumb asking this, as i'm sure it's a simple answer, but tables are one area of Indesign I haven't explored all that much.
I have tables that look like this- here's a working and preview view sample:
My issue is i'm having to insert new locations/dates into the tables- you can see where i've tried- but I can't get the formatting the same, with the two column setup with "Event Date" and then the course name. I can't just copy and paste a section of table- or at least any method I try doesn't work, I just end up pasting into a cell. There are no styles set up, and i'm not sure how to replicate exactly what's there. I'm not an Indesign newbie, but I am a newbie to using tables- my work just hasn't called for it much in the past. Help!? There's got to be a simple solution...

When I'm doing tables like that
I'll insert new rows, then I'll Right Click (cmd click on mac) and then choose "Unmerge Cells"
I can then highlight a range of other cells (as long as it's the same row count) If I select two rows to copy then I make sure i have 2 unmerged rows to paste into.
Then I copy into those by highlighting the empting cells and pasting.
Usually works for me.

Copy Package

Hi,
I have following issue: I want to launch a copy package which copies dimensions of another application.
So being in the finance application I want to launch to copy members of the Ownerhip application which has of course other dimensions (for example Ownaccount)
Someone knows how to do this?
Br,
Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,
I think, if you're familiar with SSIS, you will have better to build a specific package for that, using back-end SQL tables called "mbrAccount" and inject the new member into "mbrOwnAccount" (via a SQL query).
I think standard packages cannot do that.
Hope this help.

Patrick

Error while using Copy Package

Hi,
I want to copy data from category BudgetV1 to BudgetV2,
I have tried to use Copy Package but I always get error with
error message "The file is empty".
Can anyone help me with the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please check if you have data in category BudgetV1. This error normally occurs when there is no data in source specified in COPY package. Make sure to select appropriate members when you specify other source dimensions.
Hope this helps.

Shoba

Error data file is empty in standard Copy package

Hi,
We have an appset that consists of four applications and we can't successfully run Data Manager Copy package in one of them. It launches the following tasks: Dump, Convert (execution fails in this step with error "Data file is empty") and Load. SSIS configuration in BIDS is defined by default and we haven't set any parameter.
We have figured out this error appears when we select any member of a dimension in "COPYMOVEINPUT" prompt except for Time dimension. Previously there was a custom Copy package based on standard BPC and it only filters by Time dimension. Perhaps this error is related to application configuration to run custom package.
We show code:
INFO(%TEMPFILE1%,%TEMPPATH%%RANDOMFILE%)
INFO(%TEMPFILE2%,%TEMPPATH%%RANDOMFILE%)
TASK(DUMP,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(DUMP,APP,%APP%)
TASK(DUMP,USER,%USER%)
TASK(DUMP,FILE,%TEMPFILE1%)
TASK(DUMP,SQL,%SQLDUMP%)
TASK(DUMP,DATATRANSFERMODE,2)
TASK(CONVERT,INPUTFILE,%TEMPFILE1%)
TASK(CONVERT,OUTPUTFILE,%TEMPFILE2%)
TASK(CONVERT,CONVERSIONFILE,%CONVERSION_INSTRUCTIONS%)
TASK(LOAD,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(LOAD,APP,%APP%)
TASK(LOAD,USER,%USER%)
TASK(LOAD,FILE,%TEMPFILE2%)
TASK(LOAD,DATATRANSFERMODE,4)
TASK(LOAD,DMMCOPY,1)
TASK(LOAD,CLEARDATA,%CLEARDATA%)
TASK(LOAD,RUNTHELOGIC,%RUNLOGIC%)
TASK(LOAD,CHECKLCK,%CHECKLCK%)
Any variables as %CONVERSION_INSTRUCTIONS% aren't defined. Is it a system constant?
Thanks.

Standard BPC Copy Package Fails

Has anyone experienced the standard copy package failing in BPC? I get the error message: 'Object variable or With block variable not set'.

I tried to submit data via an input template and received the same error (Object Variable or With block variable not set). I checked the security and the ID has all functionality access. The member is a base member. I also had the server rebooted and still no luck.
Below is the detail log of the copy pkg:

COpy Package not working as it should in BPC V 5.0

Problem:-
When I choose Replace and Clear Data Values, it merges them .. I have run it few times and each time the data was duobled.
When I chose, Merge Data Values, it cleared and the numbers !!.
Possiable Cause:-
The function seems to be working in reverse order, Could this be bug in the SAP BPC v5.0?
If any of you have any idea how to fix this, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Sam

Hi Sam,
Check the modify script for the copy package by going to modify package, view script and advanced tab.
In script, in the prompt comand, '0' should be assigned to Merge data values and 1 to clear data. If it is in reverse order, change it and save it back.
Note that if you are using sql 2005, you can directly modify the script, if it is 2000, you need to modify the EVmodifyscript task in the DTS assigned to Copy package.
Hope this helps,
Kranthi

Copying Packaging Spec

When I am copying packaging spec, the fields 'Category', 'Sub-Category' & 'Group' are getting copied over, however the fields under 'Available UOM', 'UOM Conversions' and Cross Reference' are not getting copied, whether I choose to keep the copied Spec linked to the Template or not. [Both the Spec copied from and the Template used has those UOM/Cross reference fields defined] . Aren't those UOM/Cross reference fields suppose to be copied over to the new Spec? When I create a new Spec from Template, system brings over all fields [UOM/Cross reference etc.] from Template, so I was expecting the same behavior while copying too, since I am linking to the Template during the copying process. Can someone shed some light on this issue please?

I believe that the functional use cases are different. When you are copying from a Template, you are not copying a real existing specification - rather, you are creating a spec with values that should be there by default. These values from a template are typically not meant to be specific to one single specification, but rather to a grouping/classification of specs. Perhaps a Beverage type specification, created from a Beverage template, would have certain Available UOMs that a Sauce specification would not. Cross References on a template may be used for pack size purposes, which may also be specific to a template.
When you copy an existing specification, the assumption is that the specification is linked to some external system(s) using the cross references - if those were copied over, you could have an possible discrepancy. Also, since you are doing a copy and not a new revision, we assumed the UOM info would be different so is is cleared out.

Added 3 tables in Entity framework

I added 3 tables to my EF: 2 tables for data and the third for connection between them (= 3 columns in this table, first ID as
the primary key, and the second and the third are FK to the other two tables).
But the problem is that the third table was added with just the first column (= ID).
Why is that?

Hello shirley111,
>>But the problem is that the third table was added with just the first column (= ID).
Could you please tell which approach you are using, code first, model first or database first? And how do you define these three tables? Please also share them with us. Currently, we cannot understand what exactly happens on your side.

Reg:Copy package problem BPC 7.5

Hi Experts,
i am using standard data manager COPY Package to copy data from one category to another .While copying i use merge functionality but it clear all data in destination category and replaces the data.not sure its BI issue or BPC issue?
Regards,
Vikram

Hello,
I know this post is old, but maybe someone is still looking.
In order not to lose data, you need to try and restrict the dimensions in the left side of the prompt to the members that you want to change, because the copy package first removes all data from destination and then writes the new records. It considers that if you want to copy something over, then data is already present so it doesn't need the old data. The records that will be deleted are selected using the key defined in the right side.
If you want to change a record with key ACC1+B1 to ACC1+B2, you need to specify on the left side ACC1+B1 and on the right side ACC1+B2 (obviously) and data on ACC2+B2 ACC3+B2 and ACC4+B2 will not be deleted, BUT only if this 2 fields represent your entire key.
If the key in your BPC Model contains also other dimensions, and you do not specify a member for them (left side ANY and right side SAME), the package will first delete all data using the right key and then copy the records from the source.
Let's say you also have the dimension TIME, so we need to copy ACC1+B1+2014.01 to ACC1+B2+2014.01, and we already have a record ACC1+B2+2014.02 present. If you set filter to ACC1+B1 on the left side and ACC1+B2 on the right side, the package will first use the right key ACC1+B2 to delete all data present (so the record ACC1+B2+2014.02 present will be removed) and then copy your data changing B1 to B2. However, if you also specify the field TIME in your filter, then the package will use the combination ACC1+B2+2014.01 in order to delete the data present in the system (at this point nothing) and then copy the data.
Hope it helps,
Ana-Maria
