Alternate Hierarchy Load into BI

Hi,
I have an alternate hierarchy created on Profit Center in COPA. When trying to load the same into BI, I have the following issue:
In the infopackage, under Hierarchy Selection tab, i do not see the specific hierarchy to load, although I can see other alternate profit center hierarchies.
I can see the hierarchy in ECC 6.0 in KES3 (active ). Since it is created under profitability analysis master data, the alternate hierarchy was created with a variant.
Any help is high appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks,
Sree

Hi,
In order to load the Customer hierarchy first of all check if 0Customer info object is available in BI system, if not install it with dependent object like Info source and Transfer structure from BI content. Activate the data source "0CUSTOMER_LKLS_HIER" in R/3 Replicate the data source in BI. Activate Transfer structure. Create Info Package and load the data in Hierarchy.

Master Data & Hierarchy loading into BPC from BW

HI all,
When i am getting master data and hierarchy from BW i need to replace a "-" to an "_".
These members are parents in BW.
I was able to do that using a conversion file for the master data. But when i run the hierarchy package it says parents dont exist because the nodes that were pulled before are not with a underscore and not a dash.
Ex: XXXX-XX needs to be replaced as XXXX_XX.
This member is a parent aswell. So i need to add conversion in the hierarchy load. I did that but its not taking it.
Conversion file for hierarchy load looks like this:
External Internal
XXXX-XX XXXX_XX
I am on BPC NW7.5 SP6.
Thank You all.

I think conversion file string manipulation for BW infoobject hierarchy imports has some issues. I suggest reporting the problem to SAP support by creating a message on the Service Marketplace. Please be very clear in the message about your setup and how to recreate the problem and why you think it is a bug so that you don't receive back a reply about it being a consulting issue. Expect some time to work through this with support and eventually development, with the goal of getting a correction note released to fix the issue.
In the meantime, you might try to do the string manipulation in the transformation file *MAPPING section instead of the conversion file.
NODENAME=NODENAME(1:4)*STR(-)NODENAME(5:6)
or substitute NODENAME above for PARENT if that is appropriate level with the issue.

Alternate hierarchy dimension build with load rules

Hi,
I am trying to build a alternate hierarchy dimension using load rules (I feel using EIS is easier to build ASO and multiple hierarchies but we r trying to get rid of EIS member loads). Looking at different posts my understanding is it has to be done using two different rules file first to build the stored hierarchies then use parent-child reference to build the shared hierarchy. Below is the link for the picture how I am trying to build the dimension. I've tried different possibilities but no luck, I am having a tough time to come up with a way to do this using rules file.
http://s24.postimg.org/u5hl4eyqt/basis.jpg

If your file is in a parent/child order, then you can build easily in one rule. make sure the primary (stored Hierarchy) gets built first followed by the alternate hierarchies. I suggest adding a SortID column to the source so you can sort the file to get it into the right order. You can also build the alternate hierarchies using level or generation builds in one load rule, but especially if you have a lot of alternate hierarchies or members, then the parent/child method is easiest.
Read in the DBAG about parent/child files and it will give you more info

Loading alternate hierarchy

Hi,
We have a source file that contains only the alternate hierarchy(Shared members). Finding a way to load it in EPMA dimension library. Is that possible? I couldnt find a suitable option in the import profile.
we are on 11.1.2.2.300. However it was easier in 11.1.2.0 as there was an checked box "Shared" which could create all members as shared.
Regards,
Ragav.

Celvin,
Thanks for your reply.
We are trying to import in EPMA from interface tables. We are not able to use Merge as Primary as it is creating all members as Primary members even when my source as shared. It also duplicates members when the source has a member that moved to a different hierarchy. Even Merge as Move is not suitable as it will load only primary hierarchies. Replace is also not suitable as our source does not contain the whole dimension.
How else can we achieve loading just the alternate hierarchy? Looks like lack of functionality.
Regards,
Ragav.

Aggregating data loaded into different hierarchy levels

I have some problems when i try to aggregate a variable called PRUEBA2_IMPORTE dimensinated by time dimension (parent-child type).
I read the help in DML Reference of the OLAP Worksheet and it said the follow:
When data is loaded into dimension values that are at different levels of a hierarchy, then you need to be careful in how you set status in the PRECOMPUTE clause in a RELATION statement in your aggregation specification. Suppose that a time dimension has a hierarchy with three levels: months aggregate into quarters, and quarters aggregate into years. Some data is loaded into month dimension values, while other data is loaded into quarter dimension values. For example, Q1 is the parent of January, February, and March. Data for March is loaded into the March dimension value. But the sum of data for January and February is loaded directly into the Q1 dimension value. In fact, the January and February dimension values contain NA values instead of data. Your goal is to add the data in March to the data in Q1. When you attempt to aggregate January, February, and March into Q1, the data in March will simply replace the data in Q1. When this happens, Q1 will only contain the March data instead of the sum of January, February, and March. To aggregate data that is loaded into different levels of a hierarchy, create a valueset for only those dimension values that contain data. DEFINE all_but_q4 VALUESET time
LIMIT all_but_q4 TO ALL
LIMIT all_but_q4 REMOVE 'Q4'
Within the aggregation specification, use that valueset to specify that the detail-level data should be added to the data that already exists in its parent, Q1, as shown in the following statement. RELATION time.r PRECOMPUTE (all_but_q4)
How to do it this for more than one dimension?

Regards,

Mel,
There are several different types of "data loaded into different hierarchy levels" and the aproach to solving the issue is different depending on the needs of the application.
1. Data is loaded symmetrically at uniform mixed levels. Example would include loading data at "quarter" in historical years, but at "month" in the current year, it does /not/ include data loaded at both quarter and month within the same calendar period.
= solved by the setting of status, or in 10.2 or later with the load_status clause of the aggmap.
2. Data is loaded at both a detail level and it's ancestor, as in your example case.
= the aggregate command overwrites aggregate values based on the values of the children, this is the only repeatable thing that it can do. The recomended way to solve this problem is to create 'self' nodes in the hierarchy representing the data loaded at the aggregate level, which is then added as one of the children of the aggregate node. This enables repeatable calculation as well as auditability of the resultant value.
Also note the difference in behavior between the aggregate command and the aggregate function. In your example the aggregate function looks at '2005', finds a value and returns it for a result of 10, the aggregate command would recalculate based on january and february for a result of 20.
To solve your usage case I would suggest a hierarchy that looks more like this:
DEFINE T_TIME_PARENTREL RELATION T_TIME <T_TIME T_TIME_HIERLIST>
-----------T_TIME_HIERLIST-------------
T_TIME H_TIME
200401 2004

3. Data is loaded at a level based upon another dimension; for example product being loaded at 'UPC' in EMEA, but at 'BRAND' in APAC.
= this can currently only be solved by issuing multiple aggregate commands to aggregate the different regions with different input status, which unfortunately means that it is not compatable with compressed composites. We will likely add better support for this case in future releases.
4. Data is loaded at both an aggregate level and a detail level, but the calculation is more complicated than a simple SUM operator.
= often requires the use of ALLOCATE in order to push the data to the leaves in order to correctly calculate the aggregate values during aggregation.

Load rule to update alternate hierarchy with shared members more than once

I have a aso cube with an alternate hierarchy that is not stored because the shared members appear more than once. Below is how my alternate hierarchy looks.
Dept
Class
VolumeLevel
StoreNum
where StoreNum is the shared member.
I build the cube using eis every weekend. The VolumeGroup changes everyday, so I was thinking of using a sql load rule to update the outline everyday. Assuming that the data and the aggregation does not get cleared. Is it possible to do it using sql load rule?
Thanks,

You can check here if you are satisfying the conditions for creating shared members under the Hierarchy (refer to Alternate Hierarchies). Plz note that rules for shared members are different in ASO world.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_dbag/frameset.htm?acrtapdb.html
Otherwise there is no reason why you should not be able to create a shared member.
I am able to create a hierarchy using a sample file like this ->
EN_MAIN, EN_500000
EN_500000, EN_49999
EN_ALT, C_500000
C_500000, EN_49999
ENTITY (Multiple Hierarchies Enabled)
|-EN_MAIN (Stored)
|--EN_500000
|---EN_49999
|-EN_ALT (Stored)
|--C_500000
|---EN_49999 (Shared)
The rule file has only "Allow Property Changes" on.
Thanks,

Reporting on Alternate Hierarchy master data (HR-BW) thru DSO object

I have a quick question. I would appreciate if you know of any direction to approach this.
We have a hierarchy in a external system that we want to bring into BW as alternate hierarchies. The hier nodes are a bunch of leagacy hierarchies and the leaves will be 0COSTCENTER (R/3 values). After loading this hierarchy in BW, we need to manipulate and add 0POSITIONS to the 0COSTENTER hierarchies from R3 and store this back as another hierarchy (with 0POSITION as leaves below 0COSTCENTER). Now we need to report on this hierarchy and get stats like # vacant position, occupied position, etc.
Have you seen anybody doing this kind of manipulation, reading hierarchy data into DSO object, reporting, etc?
Any idea will be appreciated.
Thanks
Raj

Hi,
To provide you with further information
i need the following data in my BW report
HRP1000 - OBJID, OTYPE, STEXTBEGDA
HRP1007-STATUS
HRP1011-SOBID, RELAT
HRP1005-TRFGL
PA0002 NACHN, VORNA
PA0007 - WOSTD ( Number of hours per week)
HRP1011 - MOVAG (Number of hours per month)
Some one in HR Fourms told me that these tables are master data tables and i am reporting on master data
So Anil,Quick question if the data i need is master data can i use the cube u suggested
Please update me on this
Thanks a lot

Alternate hierarchy in but through the EIS

We use the Integration Services to load, and we need to put an alternate hierarchy in but through the EIS part I’m not clear on how to do it. I was wondering if you had done that?

In the meta-outline, go into dimension properties and go to the Outline Build tab.
There is a section for duplicate member names, select 'add as shared member'

GL ACCOUNT hierarchy load

Hi BI Guru's,
Could someone help me to understand a strange issue on my customer BW.
I mantained a GL_ACCOUNT hierarchy for my P&L on SAP R/3 ECC 6 throw t-code ob58.
As a test I created a simple structure with only 10 account under Profit node.
Save and load into BW.
Now, a strange issue appear.
The accounts under Profit Node are showing correctly but I have the same 10 accounts under "Unassigned nodes"!Only the 10 accounts are showing twice!
If I load into BW the standard P&L hier (complete of all the nodes) ALL THE ACCOUNTS are duplicated into "Unassigned nodes"!
I have to make a precisation: I don't need to see GL ACCOUNT Hier into a bex query, I've to load it into BPC 7.5 with dedicated package.
Someone can help me to solve the issue?
Thanks and sorry for my english!
Andrea
Edited by: Andrea Davoli on Sep 23, 2011 6:22 PM

Thanks to all for your replies.
I try to clarify: the structure under R/3 and under BW are the same.
So the nodes and the account under standards nodes are the same. But under unassigned nodes into BW I've all the account that are under the other nodes but in R/3 the unassigned node is empty (I suppose that node is populated by system at runtime when abap report is run).
BW
+ Asset
++ 1000001 - Asset
+ Unassigned nodes
++ 1000001 - Asset
R/3
+ Asset
++ 1000001 - Asset
+ Unassigned nodes
It's possible to have some customization under R/3 customizing?

Change InfoObject value in flat file for Hierarchy load

Hi Guys,
I am loading hierarchy for an infoobject from flat file. I have the field InfoObject (IOBJNM) whose value needs to be changed before loading into the hierarchy. Can somebody tell me how can I do that through formula or routine.
The InfoObject loads 0HIER_NODE and a leaf infoobject values from flat file.
The hierarchy transfer rules does not contain IOBJNM field., though the Hier Structure under Transfer Structure tab contains IOBJNM.
In transfer structure I see only NodeName, Date From, Date To, and eaf infoobject.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Try using the IDOC method while loading the hierarchy and make sure you have this IOBJNM in the external charactersitics for the Infoobect to which you are loading this hier.
Thanks,
Peter

Problem during hierarchy load from ECC 6.0 to BW

Hello,
I encountered a problem during hierarchy loads from ECC to BW:
I get the following in BW:
Error when updating Idocs in Source System
Diagnosis
Errors have been reported in Source System during IDoc update:
Once I go into ERP and look at the IDocs I get the following message:
Idoc Error 26:
EDI: Syntax error in IDoc (segment cannot be identified)
Message no. E0078
Diagnosis
The segment E1RSSH does not occur at the current level of the basic type (extension ).
This error can have several reasons:
The segment E1RSSH is assigned to a group whose header segment does not occur.
The segment E1RSSH does not exist in the syntax description of the basic type (extension ).
The sequence of segments in the group in which the segment appears is incorrect.
Previous errors ('mandatory' segment or group missing) may be due to this error.
Procedure
Please check the IDoc or the syntax description of the basic type (extension ).
Can anyone help?

The most basic setting in a BW system is its connectivity with the R/3 system (which is a basis team activity, but BI consultant can always help).
Issue: While creating source system, I am getting an error "Segment E1RSSH does not exist".
Diagnosis
Segment E1RSSH is in the syntax description, but it does not exist.
The issue was that some of the entries in the table EDISEGMENT were missing.
As this a standard table, it is recommended to restore the table from Backup or from another BI system. (Please ask your basis team to do it.)
Now, the significance of the segments: We all know that we require 3 message types in total to communicate with R/3 system. RSRQST, RSSEND and RSINFO.
Now each of the message types has some segments which help in communication.
You can see this segment types in the t-code we30. Just enter the basic idoc type and click on display.
This error is not a common error, but can be useful if at any stage of implementation or support, the table gets disturbed and you have issues with source system connectivity.
Thanks

BIA Index Loading into Mmeory (for SAP) ....

Hello all,
I went to www.sdn.sap.com and chose Business Intelligence from the left menu.
In the BI Knowledge Center (Right side), I chose BI Accelerator, which is under Key Topics section.
Then I opened a document "SAP Business Intelligence Accelerator (PDF 154 KB)".
Go to the section "SAP BI Accelerator at Work", which is at page# 5. The third point says like this -
BI accelerator indexes are loaded into memory where the query is processed. In memory, joins and aggregations are done at run time. Loading of indexes into memory happens automatically at first query request, or it can be set for preloading whenever new data is loaded.
I had an understanding that it will be loaded into memory only when query was first executed. But this says it can be set for preloading as well wherever new data loaded.
My question is that where this setting can be done for preloading?
It says that preloading option is available whenever new data loaded so does that mean that it can only be set for rollup of BIA Index and for initial load, it will still load data into memory when the query is first executed.
I would appreciate if somebody has knowledge of this as it is new technology.
Others, who has a knowledge can also answer.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you to everybody in advance.
Sume

Hi,
I found it.
It is an option on BIA Index Property button in the wizard. It appears only after the initial load is done. There is check box for to keep the BIA Index in main store. I thin it is only applicable to Roll-up.
Thank you.

Thanks

I was never a big fan of using DW to FTP. There are several FTP programs that you might find work better than DW. For example Filezilla, free and works pretty darn well.
http://filezilla-project.org/
For me, being able to graphically see my local site on one half my screen and the site as it sits on the server on the other half of the screen really helps me quickly spot problems if I upload something and it doesn't display.
Anyway... DW is not the only option for loading files to your server.

Qosmio F - Unable to load into Windows or anything

Yesterday, while studying other day outside another student bumped the table I was studying on. I would say "tapped" as it was not that hard. The normal message appears where it says the laptop will move the harddrive to a safe location etc.
Shortly after maybe 10-20mins, I get a message on the laptop screen asking me to "backup the laptop" as there was some major error or failure. I clicked on the "additional information" and it basically said all my drives C:, G: and whatever I had disk failure or something. Unable to backup the laptop as I did not have CD's present to back it up with I took it home to do i today.
The laptop is refusing to even load into windows at the moment. Unable to back up or anything. Keeps loading into options about system repair, restore, memory diagnostics etc. nothing fixes it.
I've only purchased the laptop since oct/nov of 2010. Didnt start using it till jan/feb of this year also. Should I attempt to open up the HDD as it might have loosen out at the back or? Should I send it back to manufacturer to look at? It's critical exam time for me and this is devastating! Also flying overseas late June after exams and wishing to take the laptop over there. Please help! Thanks advance for all advice and suggestions.

Hi Kyo,
Your posting is a little bit hard to understand and a screenshot of this error message would be useful but if you get an message about defective HDD and all partitions you should contact an authorized service provider in your country.
Your notebook should be still under warranty so the guys can replace the HDD for free. If you need some important data you can ask if they can rescue some files and do a backup. Alternative you can try it yourself if you buy an external HDD case for example. Then you can connect the HDD via USB to another computer.

How can I reference the main timeline on a swf once it was loaded into another?

I have an swf with some custon animation functions using actionscript 3. I'm refering to the main timeline with Movieclip(root) and it works just fine.
However, this swf is going to be loaded inside another (a custom player), and when that happends, everything stops working.
I think it's because the Movieclip(root) is now referencing to the loader swf and not the loaded anymore, but I just can't find any information on how to fix that.

This is basically what I´m doing here:
I'm placing this code on frame 1, and calling the function textAnimate() whenever I need to insert some text.
// This is a variable I created for tracking the timeline
var base:MovieClip = MovieClip(root);
function textAnimate(movieName:String, espera:Number):void {
          //var espera:Number = 1; //Waiting time
          var objeto:MovieClip = base[movieName]; //Variable to select the object
          var posFinal:Number = objeto.x; // Object position
          var posEnter:String = "-160"; // Animation start (relative)
          var posExit:String = "+160"; // Animation end (relative)
          // enter animation
          TweenMax.from(objeto, 1, {x:posEnter, alpha:0, blurFilter:{blurX:40}, ease:Back.easeOut});
          //call exitAnimation() after X seconds
          TweenMax.delayedCall(espera,exitAnimation);
          //exit animation
          function exitAnimation() {
                    TweenMax.to(objeto, 1, {x:posExit, alpha:0, blurFilter:{blurX:40}, ease:Back.easeIn});
