Addition of new field in existing cube which has data?

I Have service provider field in ods and which is populating data on daily basis.
Now I need to populate that field into cube and then reportingu2026u2026..
For this do I need to delete the data from the cube and add that new field and need to load the last 6 month data? Or else with out doing deletion of data can I add a field in cube?
Regards

Remodeling is a new concept introduced in BI 2004s to manage changes to the structure effectively in an infoprovider, where the data is loaded and running. As of now we can make changes to the Infocube only. The same would be extended to the DSO and InfoObject in the future releases.
Before you proceed to experience the remodeling process, letu2019s bear in mind few of the golden rules given by SAP.
--> As a precaution, make a back-up of your data before you start remodeling.
Before you start remodeling, make sure:
--> You have stopped any process chains that run periodically and affect the corresponding InfoProvider.
--> Do not restart these process chains until remodeling is finished. There is enough available table space on the database.
--> After remodeling, check which BI objects that are connected to the InfoProvider (transformation rules, Multiproviders, queries and so on) have been deactivated. You have to reactivate these objects manually.
You can go for remodelling. If you still have doubt, try the same in your Sandbox and repeat the process in Production as you are saying you have time of 1week.

Adding new fields to existing cube

Hi all,
We have a cube with data, now we added 2 new fields to the datasource. And want to add two more fields in the Cube to correspond to the new fields. What would be the impact on the data that is already there in the cube? Can I go ahead and add the fields in the cube and start extracting data? What I want to know is what would be the implications in such a scenario?
Any insight or help would be appreciated and fully rewarded.
Thanks,
Mav

Hi,
At least from the experience I had there were no performance issues. The only issue would be in terms of the time taken to transport. The larger the amount of data ,longer the transport time.
You can continue extraction of data for those 2 fields from that point on. No need to empty the data from the cube and reload again. Only thing is that the data in the past for these 2 fields may not be mapped to the existing data in the cube. If you want to do that dump the cube and reload. Otherwise the data will be mapped from the time you start extracting the new fields with the data in the cube.
Cheers,
Kedar

Addition of new fields to existing Infotype: Error in Quality Server.

Hi Experts,
I have added new fields by adding custom include to Infotype 4000 using t-Code PM01. It is working perfectly fine in DEV. But, in QLT, the custom Include is not attached to the P4000 structure. Independently, CI_P4000 exists in QLT.
I have checked all the Transport Requests, nothing is missing. However, The structure of P4000 is not getting modified as per requirement. What should I do?

Hi Experts,
The Error was coming with Infotype 4000. I tried adding the same field by updating Infotype 4001 and it worked. So, I have used that only, and my requirement is fulfilled.
But, I am still not sure if we can add field in similar way in Infotype 4000.
Thanks to all for providing me with possible solutions!!

How to add a new field in the cube and load data

Hi,
The requirement is
We have ZLOGISTICS cube , the data souce of this filed has REFDCONR-reference dcument number filed . We have to create a new field in cube load data and get this new filed into the report also.
Please any one can help me with the step by step process of how to do?
How to get the data into BW and into the report.

Hi,
So you need that this new field have data in old records?
1.- If you are in BI 7.0 and the logic or data for that New field are in the same Dimension, you can use a Remodeling to fill it. I mean if you want if you want to load from a Master Data from other InfoObject in the same Dim.
2.- If condition "1" is not yours.
First add the new field, then create a Backup Cube (both cubes with the new field) and make a full update with all information in the original Cube. The new field willl be empty in both cubes.
Create an UR from BackUp_Cube to Original_Cube with all direct mapping and create a logic in the Start Routine of the UR (modiying the data_package) you can look for the data in the DSO that you often use to load.
To do that both cubes have to be Datasources ( right click on Cube-> aditional function-> and I think is "Extract Datasource")
Hope it helps. Regards, Federico

Addition of New Fields to CG36VEN Transaction - Import of Vendor MSDS

Hi Guys,
I have a business requirement for addition of New fields (text field and check box) in the CG36VEN transaction (Import vendor MSDS) in SAP EHS.
(Something like in the attached screenshot )
Are there any User Exits/Enhancements points available for the same? (we tried checking but couldn't find any).
If no, should we copy the function group into a custom function group and make the changes?
Please suggest the best way forward. any pointer are really appreciated.

Gaurish Dessai

Dear Gaurish
if you check the normal process to upload "pdf" files using SAP standard import you are able to create additional data (using a SAP standard class; but you can change that using a custom specific class) by standard without the need to "modify" screens etc. . I would prefer to do the upload in a "document" class and not to ESTDH as the use of a class is standard; but yes you can use append fields in ETSDH (or use custom driven own table); In e.g. DOC-X and similar interfaces you can download then the data from the class (e.g. as in your case for "reuse" in a different data base). PLease check SAP online help or the many threads which are related to the topic of "mass bulk download of pdf SDS/MSDS files (e.g. Bulk MSDS Download))
The "correct" (best solution depending on the real customer needs) solution depends a little bit on your further use of the "on top" data which you would like to upload (and the potential risk that after e.g. 6 months user would like to get a third, fourth etc. checkbox inthe screen).
E.g. the two check boxes could be implemented as "identifiers". The "pro" of this solution is this:
a.) you can execute easily inquiries in EHS database
b.) you can extract the identifiers easily (e.g. as part of an output variant or other similar options (combination of ALE with XI/PI)
Second option: you can generate an own EHS class as part of the property tree; then you can use as well inquiry options (and ALE or other options to download the data).
As mentioned before: the "best" option (near to the SAP standard) is to use a customer exit in Cg50 (check e.g. Customer Exits in SAP EHS MANAGEMENT
and these two exits as mentioned there:
C1G20001
EHS: Menu exit 1: Report management
Yes
C1G20002
EHS: Menu exit 2: Report management
Yes
One "disadvantage" of the transaction CG36VEN is that you can upload only one document in one run. Using the exists as mentioned you can generate a more "user friedly" option to do mass uploads as well (based e.g. on key files (similar to the "Standard option" but more user friendly)..
Using this option you are as well flexible to use own customer document classes (e.g. you can/could define per "document type" one class; e.g. for REACH exposure scenarios you can use a different class in comparison to SDS upload.
A well known shortfall of transaction CG50/CG54 is the limitation in the available search options. You could not select reports based on the "check" boxes in your screen (therefore if you use "append" fields for ESTDH there is very limited option available to sue an inquiry standard SAP function to select reports of a specific type)
Therefore in most cases it is better to change your process or your approach (how you would like to store the data); e.g. to store the check boxes data on spec level (e.g. as identifier) and then by using CG02 "switch" to CG54/CG50 transaction (which is now easily possible) to check the reports (and content of the reports).

Add a new field to existing Table

Hi , We want to add a new field to existing table from ECC and populate historical data .
We have already extracted data from ECC to VBAK Table . We have to add a new field - Incoterms in HANA . This field exists in ECC .
Please guide.

Hi Vicky,
I dont think you can add new fields to the condition table once you have activated the condition table.
SAP says you can only make limited changes to the condition table, like changing the description, fast entry screen, header and footer fields, but not able to add new fields to the table, and I think that is the correct approch or else for the same table you will have two sets of condition records.
Please refer to the below link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/de/7a8534c960a134e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm
What you can do is create a new condition table with additional field and assign this table before the currently used table in the access sequence.
Hope this helps.

I have a new computer, and want to put the new music from there to my existing ipod (which has an existing library that I don't want to erase)

I have a new computer, with some new music on it in my Itunes Library. How do I put that new music from here onto my existing ipod (which has a ~1500 song library from an old computer which is no longer accesible, and which music I do not want to erase)?

I'm not trying to put the music from my old ipod onto my new computer!!!! I don't really want to do that!
I would like simply to see if there is a way to put the new music from my new computer onto my old ipod without erasing all my existing music that I have on there.

I added an Interactions button and in the Actions on Success I open an URL or file. I have placed the video on our web server. In the URL I point to our web server "http://www.wmabhs.org/Media/Add Client 3rd Party Coverage.mp4". If I run this from any browser it works. So what do you think I have done wrong?

The music you just downloaded tonight to your new computer is safe. The music you purchased on your phone is safe. You shouldn't feel gutted. It's your other music that you should have taken better care of. That would include any music you ripped yourself or purchased outside of iTunes. That you can't get back.
It has always been the user's responsibility to back up and protect downloaded music. If you didn't have a backup of your computer before it started acting funny, that's your fault. It would be no different than if you lost a music CD. It would not be a record store's responsibility to replace if you lost it. Digital music is no different. Similarly, a phone is not a backup medium. Phone's break, get misplaced or stolen all the time and are not a substitute for a backup copy of your music and media.
Computers WILL break. Hard drives WILL fail. That's why you back up your data.

I have a brand new 8gb iPod touch 4g which has 0.43gb of other data right out of the box.

I have a brand new 8gb iPod touch 4g which has 0.43gb of other data before I've even put anything on it.I appreciate the OS takes up about 1.5gb, but this is in addition to that. There is absolutely nothing on the iPod and I've already done a factory reset.
The amount of yellow "other" data seems to go up and down if I click sync (although it is not syncing anything). There is no other data on the device. Is this normal?

That is about right. Normally it is about 1/2 GB. If can grow because of corrupt files. Then it is necessary to restore the iPod sometimes from backup works but sometimes a restore to factory defaults/new iPod is required. The other is made of ite items that do not fit the other categories listed.

How to add new infoobject to existing cube or dso?

Hi all,
Can we add new infoobject to exixting cube in BW 3.5 ver? if yes how can we add? Please provide me steps.
Thank you.
Sunil

Hi Sunil,
If you want to add new info object to the IC or DSO which is already holding data - then you need to make a copy of that particular DSO/IC and load the data into dummy.
Now delete the data from the IC/DSO to which you want to add the new info object. once the data is deleted it will allow you to add new info object to you IC/DSO.
save it and activate the IC/DSO
load the data from Dummy DSO and from new run on wards the newly updated info object will also get updated(historical data will not be updated if its newly added to DS as well).
If you want the historical data for the newly added field then you need to drop the compelte data and need to extract from source.
Note: You can't include the new info objects are change the existing info objects if there is data exist in the IC/DSO
Regards
KP
