  • Adding navigational attributes to a cube

    We have upgraded to BW 7.3. Previously when we added navigational attributes to a cube we need to activate the update rules from the ods but now it appears that we don't need to do that anymore. Is this the expected behavaior?  We are using the 3.5 update rules.
    thanks

    HI,
    If you are using 3.5, after selecting nav attr in the cube, the cube structure gets deactivated. The dependent update rules also gets deactivated. You will be forced to activate all again.
    In BW 7.3, SAP would have given privilege to add without activation. It is good for us. So nothing to worry.

  • "Error determining attribute" after adding navigational attribute to query

    Hello all,
    We are getting a "Error Error determining attribute, Abort System error in program SAPLRRK0 and form RSRDR;SRRK0f30-01-" error message when running a query after adding a navigational attribute. We tried adding the attribute of the characteristic directly in the query and this works ok. But when we try using the navigational attribute we get the error. We would like to use the navigational attribute so we can filter based on this attribute.
    We've searched for notes regarding this problem and haven't found any. Any suggestions?
    Thanks, Ron

    hi,
    Please check if  number of the fields after adding the Navigationl attribute the should not cross 50.
    Check the RSRV test for the master data whose navigational attribute u r trying to add.
    Thanks

  • Adding navigational attribute in Info Object.

    My staging layer is as below.
    Data source1-> DSO1
    Data source2-> DSO1
    Data Source 3->DSO1
    From DSO1 : there are 3 Transformaitons.
    DSO -> Info Object “ABC”
    DSO1- > DSO2.
    DSO1 -> DSO3.
    That means. DSO1 , is supplying data to ABC info object and 2 more DSO's.
    I need to Enhance Data Source 1, with Field “X”  add it in DSO and then add that field in Navigational attribute of IO “ABC.
    I dont need this field “X” in DSO2 and DSO3.
    Question :
    1) I want to understand its effect on Transformations if I add field in DSO1.
    Data source2-> DSO1
    Data Source 3->DSO1.
    DSO1- > DSO2.
    DSO1 -> DSO3.
    2) Will all these be inactive ( assuming yes, )
         a. Do I need to retransport all the transformations.
         b.And if Yes, I assume we need to transport DTP’s too.
    3) Does adding of navigational attribute affect any other Cubes and DSO  or transformations ,containing the main Info Objects. "ABC"..
    Note:  This new navigational attribute is not used in any of the old cubes. it wil be used in new design.

    hI,
    1. If add any field to DSO1, then incoming and outgoing transformations will go inactive.
    2. a. Yes.
        b. Yes.
    3. No, but info ABC object transformations may go inactive.
    Thanks

  • DSO Activation Fails after adding navigational attribute

    hi Gurus
    I have created a object A using Object B as reference and added Object A into Object C as navigation attribute.
    Now my object D which is referenced to Object C also has this object A as attribute and i change to navigational attribute here.
    When i try to turn on nav. attribute check box in DSO then DSO activation fails (Error - DS Object Object D__Object A (Master data check) does not exist} and therefore i cant add it as free char. in report. Though i am getting the data in report if i keep dnt turn on nav. attribute option in DSO and activate it.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Make sure your object A has master data check box checked. For this your referenced object B should have master data check.

  • Not able to check navigation attribute in Multiprovider

    Hi Gurus
       I am trying to check the navigation attribute in the multiprovider which is built against Infoobject, ODS, & Infoset. I am not able to do it bcoz it is grayed out in the multiprovider.
    I checked in the infoobject definition, there it is turned on navigation.
    FYI, i am using version 3.1C
    Please help me out.
    Thanks
    Sansen.

    Hai San,
    If you want to make the object under Navigational in the multi provider that object should come from Cube(Possible).
    If you want to bring that object under navigational through Infoset(not Possible).

  • Help adding navigational attribute to IC

    Hi all,
    i'm adding a new nagigational attr. to a characteristic, i checked it on an already existing and loaded InfoCube. Then when opening an existing query the new nav. attr. appears so i add it to the free characteristics. I can save the query and everything looks fine, but when i run the query it shows an error saying that the nav. attr. doesn't exist on the InfoCube.
    how can i solve this ?
    i already tried exiting query designer and entering again, even doing the same on BW.

  • Transports issue regarding navigational attribute

    Hi,
    I used to have some navigational attribues in somecubes and Multiprovider but as per the latest requirement from the customer again converted them as display attributes in masterdata so that automatically removed from cubes and multiprovider with out even our interventions as we know..
    So assigned to transport request and transporting into further systems then we r getting error as
    "Navigation attribute XYZ  does not (actively) exist
    Message no. R7748"
    but when i do check of cube it does not give any error but when i am transporting it is again loooking for those navigational attributes in target system..
    I am not sure why it is giving problem like this ...Just i am guessing is it because i did not remove navigational attribute flag first from cube instead of just master data directly ...but that should not be a problem as per my knowledge...
    Can any experts reply to me asap if you come accross this kind of problem ....
    Thanks & Rgards,
    BRK

    Editted as I understand the solution now.
    If you want to delete navigational attributes from a multi provider, cube and master data it needs to be done in the order:
    - remove navigational attribute from MultiProvider
    - remove navigational attribute from Cube
    - set navigational attribute to be display attribute on InfoObject
    If you don't follow this order e.g. just set navigational attribute to be a navigational attribute on master data then you get problem where every time you transport cube it says nav. attribute is inactive even though (as far as you can see) the nav. attribute does not exist.
    btw, if you have dug yourself into a hole then you need to re-create the navigational attribute on the InfoObject and then add it back to the cube and multiprovider - transport this and then follow correct order.

  • Unable to add Navigational attribute in Qery

    Hi All,
    Am a beginner in Bex queries. I need to add a Navigational Attribute, in a BEx Query.  I did the following:
    1.  Turned ON the Navigational attribute in the Infocube.
    2. As my query is on Multiprovider, i had mapped the specific field as well.
    3. In the query, the 'Attribute' folder is added to the particular charcteristic in the infoprovider panel. When i try to drag to the navigational attribute into the 'Free Characrteristics', its not working out.
    Am not sure about the procedure for adding the Navigational attribute into the Query. please help me in resolving this.
    Thanks,
    Chitra.

    Hi Chitra,
    Check if the navigational attribute is already there in Rows or filters area. it can't be in 2 places at a time.
    First make sure the Attribute is navigational enabled at info object level.
    Enable the object as navigational at IC level.
    as you are using MP... you need to enable the navigational attribute in the MP and identify the object then you will be able to use the navigational attribute in the query.

  • Is it possible to change 0currency as navigational attribute

    Hi Guru's,
    It is possible to make 0CURRENCY as navigational attribute.
    Please Clarify.
    Thanks,
    Deepika

    Thanks Satya
    Your answer gave an understanding.
    My Actual problem is
    I have requirement to show Annual Salary which is attribute of 0Employee in the report along with currency.
    Report is based on Multiprovider which contains 0Employee in one of its dimension.
    And this 0EMPLOYEE_ZSALARY is part of Free Chars of Report.
    As Annual Salary (0ANSALARY) is Keyfigure If I add this as attribute it will be display attribute
    then it is not possible to bring it to multiprovider level and show it in the report.
    So, I have created ZSALARY Characteristic added it as navigational attribute of 0EMPLOYEE but if I do
    this how can I show currency along with ZSALARY.
    ZSALARY Char cannot have 0CURRENCY by default as this is character not a keyfigure.
    One more problem here is 0CURRENCY is also display attribute.
    Any ideas please help.
    Thanks,
    Deepika

  • Identifying attributes in multiprovider from different cubes?

    I have added 2 infocubes and 1 infoobject (masterdata) into my multiprovider, but fields  i need in my report are attributes of infoobject.All the fields are getting displayed in query output except these attributes.
                       Please provide me the reason..
    BTW: I have declared them as navigation attributes in my infoobject and checked for navigation in multiprovider,

    Hi
    For those particular attributes, have you done the mapping correctly? Also check this Addind a cube and infoobject in the multiprovider
    Also check the design of your MP. Can you see these values in listcube transaction?
    Cheers

  • Added new attribute to WBS

    Here is my current issue.
    I added a "deleted indicator" to the WBS_ELEMT_ATTR on r/3, then created a new infoobject in BW (did not flag it w/master data) and added this new infoobject as a navigational attribute to the WBS_ELEMT infoobject in BW.
    Went to the infosource for WBS_ELEMT and added it to the transfer structure and the comm. structure. Activated it. Then reloaded the master data for WBS from r/3. Went to "Maintain Master Data" for WBS_ELEMT and I can see the new field is populated correctly in the new field I added to WBS_ELEMT.
    Then I went to the cube 0PS_C04 and marked the new attribute I added to WBS_EMEMT as a navigation attribute and re-activated it and the update rules.
    The problem is in the query and when viewing data with list cube or cube contents the field is blank. But its not blank with maintain master data for WBS_ELEMT.
    Does anyone have any clues as to my mistake or what I need to do. I'm needing to restrict a query based on 0PS_C04 by this new attribute I added to WBS.
    Will reward points as always.
    Richard

    Hey Richard,
    WBS_ELEMT is a navigational attribute in 0PS_C04 and "deleted indicator" is a navigational attribute of WBS_ELEMT. So, "deleted indicator" is a second level navigation attribute for 0PS_C04. This will not show you any data in the query even if you can see the data for this field in WBS_ELEMENT. One more thing is that in the update rules for 0PS_C04, you have mapped only WBS_ELEMENT but not "deleted indicator". Hence, the data is not displayed in the report.
    You can handle this in 2 different ways.
    1. Add "deleted indicator" to the cube directly and map it all the way down to the data source.
    2. Add the "deleted indicator" to the cube and in the update rules, map it as an attribute of WBS_ELEMENT.
    Unless it is mapped to the cube from the comm structure in the update rules, you can not see the data in the report.  Try one of these and let us know if it works.
    Thanks and Regards

  • How to show data for navigational attribute in a report ?

    Hello all,
    I have a hierarchy info object A which has a navigational attribute(hierarchy) B. I need to filter on B for a particular node.
    I have added A in the filter column and selected B as the attribute. How can i restrict B for a particular hierarchy node ?
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    S N

    Hi,
    Have you defined 'B' as Navigational attribute at InfoProvider Level?
    You can Restrict B for a Particular Value once it is defined as Navigational attribute at InfoProvder level.
    Go to InfoProvider maintaince>click 'nav attributes'>enable it (check the box).activate the InfoProvider.
    Then you can see it under same dimension where 'A' is assigned and its name would be  A_B.
    Drag and drop in to rows and restrict(include/exclude) with required value.
    thanks

  • Virtual infoprovider with services - Navigational attributes

    Hi all,
    I have a basic cube in BI system- X , and created a virtual cube in another BI system Y with services to read data from basic cube of BI system X . In BI system Y we built a report on virtual cube. This report (on virtual cube in BI system Y) is using a characteristics say Product group ( which is a navigational attributes of prodect in BI system X).
    DataFlow is as under:
    Basic cube in BI system X:
    Product
    Year
    Amount
    and Product group is switched on as navigational attributes in this basic cube.
    Virtual cube in BI system Y:
    Product group
    Year
    Amount
    Report in BI system Y:
    Product group in rows
    Amount in column
    This report is not working.
    If I do the the following changes as follows then it works:
    1.Use Product instead of product group in report
    2. Switch off navigational attributes in basic cube.
    We are in BW 3.5 and navigational attributes option is ticked on for virtual cube.
    In summary, If I do not use navigational attributes in report and switch off navigational attributes from basic cube then report shows data.
    Could you please help me to figure out the issue.
    Thanks,
    Harry

    Thanks Naga,
    Yes, I tried adding product in virtual cube as well but it did  not work. Secondly, we do not want to add product in virtual cube because of data aggregation.
    Most strange thing is that, once we switch on any navigational attributes on basic cube, function module stop working (paasing any data to virtual cube report). report says no appropriate data found. We are using sap standard function module "RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ_RFC". I debegged this code and no data in internal tables.
    If we switch off all  navigational attributes from basic/source cube this function module provide data to internal tables in code.
    Why function module is behaving like that.
    You guys experience/support/any clue will be appreciated highly.
    Thanks,
    Harry

  • Need help on Authorization on Navigational Attribute.

    Hi All,
    I am working on Authorizations.
    I am using the info Object "Material group" which is the Navigational Attribute of 0MATERIAL.
    In Reporting, I have created the Authorization Variable for Material group.
    And after this, i have created the Authorization Object in RSECADMIN and added the info Object "Material group" and harded coded the value as "1000". After this, i have created the Authorization Role in PFCG and added this authorization Object over there.And this role is assigned specific User.
    While Running the report on specific User, for Material group, filteration is not happening over there (Material group = 1000). It is showing all values for this user.
    Can you please help on this issue.
    Thanks,
    Shahina A

    Thanks for your reply. I was on leave for the past 2 days. I have checked as you suggested.
    In 0MATERIAL, 0MATL_GROUP is the attribute and i have made Authorization Relvent for this Attribute.
    And i activated the Info object 0MATERIAL.
    Then i have run the query in RSRT and found an error while running the Report.
    Can u pls help on this issue.
    Diagnosis
    The system determined the authorized characteristic values for the characteristic 0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP. It determined that you do not have the (analysis) authorization to view transaction data for any characteristic values or range.
    System Response
    If this situation occurs when a variable is being filled, the query cannot be executed.
    Procedure
    You must have authorization for at least one characteristic value for the characteristic 0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP.
    Create the appropriate analysis authorizations for the user.
    If you are only authorized for evaluations that aggregate using the characteristic 0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP (for ":" authorizations), use a query without this characteristic. If the characteristic is not used as a filter or in the drilldown, variables should not be used.
