Attribute /hierarchy change run

Hi,
I have to run the Attribute/Hierarchy change run for only one infoobject. When I click on "Infoobject list", the list is empty even though some changes were made in the hierarchy. How can I get the infoobject list?
Thanks.

Hi.......
The easiest method is ........use the Program : RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN.........there give the infoobject name.........Then in the top Program tab >> Execute in background...........then u can monitor the Job in SM37........the job name will be RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN..........
But logically if changes has done to the Master data......Transaction RSA1 --> Tools --> Apply Hierarchy/Attribute Change... --> InfoObject List & Hierarchy List ............this List should contain the list of infoobjects.............if nothing is there..............it means no changes has been done.............and there is nothing to be activated............So also check whether the changes hav been done properly or not.....................then use this program............it should be done........

Debjani......

Attribute / Hierarchy Change Run and BWA Index

HI!
During my analysis to the perocess chains in our BW/BWA systems, I noticed that Change Run either rollup or update BWA indexes. I am not sure what Change Run exactly does for the indexes, so if you please can help in that it will be great. because we are inpecting that this may caused us a failure in BWA indexes before.
Thanks,

Problem with hierarchy change run in aggregates

Hi,
I have made changes in Cost center hierarchy (infact I have included 2 cost centers in a seperate node). After it I loaded hierarchy into BW through Process chain. Process chain uses Attribute/hierarchy change run process. Consequently Cost center hierarchy is loaded into BW successfully.
In Cost center master data, hierarchy table, i can see two new records for these added costcenters in Active status. It means hierarchy change has worked properly.
I have also read that hierarchy change run automatically reflects the changes in Aggregates, that are using Cost center info objects.
But my problem is I did not find new added cost centers in any aggregate using cost center info object. Though it should be taken care by Attribute/hierarchy change run.
Please suggest, if I make any change in source system hierarchy, then how and when it will impact aggregates ? How can I test that hierarchy change has impacted aggregates ?
Thanks and Regards

Hi Fede
Did you manage to solve your problem?
I have a similar situation where the technical ID of the hierarchy is set as default value for the hierarchy variable in the variable input screen.
I have noticed that if I un-check the option "Suppress 'Unassigned' Node" in the Hierarchy Attributes Settings in RSH1, then the default value is gone, but I would like to have it checked in order not to display the unassigned nodes for the end users.
Any help or comments on what you have done to overcome this problem would be jhighly appriciated.
Thanks.

Table for log of attribute/hierarch change run

Hi Guys,
Can someone please tell me the table name where all the attribute/hierarchy change run log is stored? Early reply is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

hi Joseph,
what are you going to do with the log ?
attribute/hierarchy change run has no special log table,
it used the same one like other application log, BALDAT and other BAL* tables.
if you want to check the log, you can click 'log' in attr/hier change run screen ? (rsattr)
or view with SLG1, object RSSM, sub object MON.
specify date.
to delete log, you can use SLG2.
hope this helps.

Hierarchy change run

Hi Gurus
I came to know about Hierarchy change attribute change run. I was told that I need to load the Hierarchy and then go to RSA1>>>Tools>>>Apply Hierarchy attribute change
so would you pl tell me what is this for? Also when I click on Hierarchy list after going into attribute chnage run, there is no Hierarchy available so pl tell me how can I populate the hierarchy for which I need to do this attribute run or will it take all Hierarchy by default?

Hi Krishna,
You just need to execute this. You can make a selection for InfoObject names (if more than one are mentioned here) but you cannot manually add another InfoObject here. The system knows if changes have been made and need to be activated.
Hope thid helps...

Attribute change run error in daily job (BI 7.0 SP 23)

Hi All,
We are facing an Attribute Change Run error in one of our daily batch job.we donnot see any locks in SM12.and a dump occurs in ST22.we also donnot have any master data load running at that time .We executed the the FM RSDDS_AGGR_MOD_CLOSE,but the Change run error occurs frequently .How to get the root cause of this issue as we donnot have any master data load running at that time.
regards,
maria

If you are sure that your master data is 0MATERIAL then GOTO-RSA1>Tools in Top>Select Attribute Hiearchy Change Run>Select Info Object List>Select 0MATERIAL>Execute.Then message "Attribute/Hierarchy change run scheduled" will appear in the Tab on your User ID.Once its finished your masterdata is activated.
For Activate Master Data we can do another method like "Right click on the particular Infoobject which need to activate and click "Activate Master Data".
The above steps is for manual activation of master data changes..
If you want to automaize the above steps "Need to add Attribute/Hierarchy Change Run" in the process chain.When execution of Processchain it will activate all the master data in the list one by one and also realign the Aggregates which using the master data objects.

Attribute change run---imp--urgent

hi experts,
when i am trying to run attribute change run for master data infoobject, always it gets cancelled, the reason system shows for cancelled attribute change run is "Hierarchy/Attribute change cancelled (protocol/Shortdump)"
what is the reason for this and secondly when i try to do the manual activation of that particular infoobject, it gives a pop-up window saying " The infoobject XXXX is already active" which means that though we are doing the manual activation, it is not doing the activation. Why i am strong in saying this is beacuse there were new records entered into that infoobject and after the data loading when i activate it manually because attribute change run is not running successully, it shows that infoobject data is already active.
why is it so ? what could be the reason?
would appreciate your quick responce

Hi,
Are you able to schedule the Attribute change run from Tools-> attribute Hierarchy change run? I hope you still able to see your Info object in the list.
Check the shortdump. May be you can find a clue as sometimes some aggrgetaes cause problem while adjusting. If you find such aggrgeate, deactivate it and run teh change run.
You can also check in the Attribute change run monitor. There also youw ill find clues as which aggrgeate is causing the problem.

Difference between Activating Master Data and Attribute Change Run

Hi
Is there any difference between Atribute change run and Activating Master data functionaaly???
if wha it is???
can any one explain clearly?
Thanks
Chinna

When u load master data and its attribute to ur data target and if u change any data or attributes of ur master data,in order to update new data to ur data target attribute change run is performed.
When u create a characteristic and if u keep it as master data and activated..it is master data activation
Activating Master Data
When you update master data from an SAP system the master data is imported in an inactive state. You must activate the new master data so that it can be accessed and used for reporting purposes.
For more information, see Versioning Master Data.
Choose the path InfoObject Tree Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate Master Data.
Upon Activation there are two scenarios to choose from:
The Corresponding Master Data Is Already Being Used in Aggregates in the InfoCube:
If you are already using the available master data in aggregates in InfoCubes, you cannot activate the master data individually. In this case, proceed as follows:
1. In the main menu, choose the path Tools Hierarchy/Attribute Change.
2. Proceed as described in System Response upon Changes to Data: Aggregate.
The system now automatically restructures and activates the master data and its aggregates.
Please note that this process can take several hours if the volume of data is relatively high. Therefore, you should simultaneously activate all of the characteristics that are affected by changes to their master data, at regular intervals.
The Corresponding Master Data Is Not Used in Aggregates:
Choose the path InfoObject Tree ® Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate.
The system now automatically activates the master data so that it can be used directly in reporting.
If there is any change r newly added records in master data..then that particular data will not b avialable for the reporting unless u do activate master data...
if u r using aggregates and then there is any change in master data ...then that particular master data change wil not b available for the reporting unless u do arrtibute change run for that info object.(T-code RSATTR)
Master data attributes and hierachies are used in cube aggregates also. So to do update the latest master data attributes values in the aggregtes attribute change run need to be performed.So Attribute change run also updates the master data attributes in aggregates which is not apart of master data activation.
Text loads do not need attribute change run. Attributes, hierarchies and aggregates need attribute/hierarchy change runs. If you do not have aggregates, just activating the master data is same as attribute change run.

Continuation of aborted change run failed in BW 3.5

Hello experts,
everytime when an attribute / hierarchy change run has been aborted (by means of unexpected runtime errors) I failed in starting it next time. Error RSENQ 2 ("Lock not set for: activation of hierarchy") occured in this case. I found a way to overcome this by manually setting flag CLOSEDFL = X in table RSDDAGGRMODSTATE.
Now I found SAP note 903886 which forbids to do so by reason of potential inconsistencies.
Does anybody know how to handle the specified situation in a right way?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Oliver

Hello Shabar,
I implicitly postulate that the reasons for the failure always have been detected before trying once more.
For example, implementing a wrong SAP note (1006192) caused runtime errors. After resetting the note implementation the error disappeared.
Sorry, this was not my question!
The point is that change run failes as long as the flag has not been set in RSDDAGGRMODSTATE even if the reason for the failure has been fixed.
Yours,
Oliver

Attr change run cannot preceed Data Load?

Hi, all
I need to make attr change run before loading data, because these active MD should be used in data loading routines. When checking this chain BW shows message " A type "Attribute Change Run" process cannot precede process "Execute InfoPackage" var. ZPAK_E5NXARYHE6BXRST2FD3YZAN7B in the ch".
Why? Is that because change run only activated and chain doesnt wait for change run end and starts next process?
Or I can suppress this warning?

2 Gopikrishna eriki 
Why? I think it isn't for no particular reason.
2AHP
normaly attribute/hierarchy change run is performed after all data loading finished, it should put after the infopackage process.

But here I need to schedule another load after this change run. And I want to use results of this change run in this load.
BTW, when running this chain I have dump on this infopackage load with OPEN_DATASET_NO_AUTHORITY on lines
OPEN DATASET L_PFILENAME FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE
 ENCODING DEFAULT
 IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS.
When I schedule this package manually everyting is OK.

Problem in Activating Hierarchy Attribute change run through process chain.

Hi All,
I have the problem in Hierarchy change run processw running through process chain..and also process chain completes successfully without any error..
Even hierarchy change run completes successfully the hierarchy objects are not activating,
so daily when i have to activate hierarchy objects manually..
and what i did was in one attributechange run process i have included 10 hierarchy object is it correct or else i have to separatly create 10 attribute change hierachy proceess in the process chain.. pls through some lights on this issue
With regards,
Hari

Hi venkat,
Yes.. i already include the save hierarchies process in process chain...
my main problem is hierarchy infobject are not activating using process chain and also even process chain is not giving error message.. and in which log table the hierarchy objects are maintained (such as run time, date , status etc..).
IS there is any other settings to be made in process chain..
with regards,
hari

Aggregates in Production System and Change Run Hierarchy

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me, Why should we create Aggregates in Production System nd How?
What is Change Run Hierarchy nd How to perform this?
Reply back me to [email protected]
Regards,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
Aggregates are nothing but a subset of your Infocube... when a query is executed, it firstl looks for the presence of the data in your aggregates and if found then it fetches the reocrds from there itself.. Else not, it'll search teh entire infocube and then fetch the records which is at a high risk of time consumption and the performance of the Query execution slows down or becomes worse significantly.. for this purpose, you build aggregates.. how do you decide whether you should go for aggregates or not is based on the following criteria...
if the %Data Base time is > 30% and if the KPI ratio (selected to transferred records) is > 10, then you go for the aggregates... you can get these details in the ST03N transaction by choosing Expert mode and selecting BI Workload... you can find all the statistics related to the Query execution starting from the front end time to db time/...
thats all about your aggregates...
Attribute or Hierarchy change run is done so that any changes to your Master data Attributes will have to get effected in terms of your reporting...
say for eg.. ur name is XYZ and loc is in India.. this is how it'll be reflected in your reporting also.. but at a later point in time, if you have changed your location from India to Europe, then for that to be reflected in your reporting, you'll have to perform an Attribute change run for that Characteristic...
Hope it solves your issue..

Problem with Customer master Attribute change run

Hello Experts
Master data load process chain for 0Customer failed in system at attribute change run step.
Because of that failed instance when ever we try to reload data get error message
"Attributes of characteristic 0CUSTOMER are locked by terminated change run 468502640"
"Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes"
It seems that last attribute change run step had locked master data object and lock is not yet released.
Kindly advice resoluiton to this problem.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Sudeep

Failed due to lock issue. check in SM12 you can find lock with respect to your change run 468502640.
Looks like master data step is running.
Wait till the masterdata for attributes of 0CUSTOMER completes and them repeat the attribute change run step.
To repat the attribute change run
Rsa1 --> Menu Tools -->Apply Hierarchy/change run or use transaction RSATTR
Click on monitor and Start Terminated Changes Runs(monitoring of Change runs)
Here you can check the failed Attribute change run object in red status.
after completion fo the master data and check the locks and click on execute button over there.

Attribute Change Run Process

Dear All,
I have scheduled a Process Chain Run in BI7. All the Process has run successfully. But there is some problem with the Attribute Change Run.
At the start of the Process Chain all the colors of Process was green and gradually all the Successful process is turning from Green to Normal Color,but in the attribute process change run the Green color is not yet gone. So i am not getting any idea if my attribute change run has run successful or it is still running?
Plz help

Hi Anup,
What is the status of the attribute change run for your infoobject? whether it is successful?
If it successful then no issues. The attribute change run happened.
coming to process chain. there might be some problem in updating the process chain coloring.
Dont worry about the process chain coloring just chk whether the described job is completed or not.
orelse chck in SM37(background jobs) so that you can know whether the process event attribute change run happened or not?
Rgrds,
Ravi

RSA1 Setup and Hierarchy / Attributes Change Run Activation

I have perfomed a Hierarchy / Attributes change run in RSA1, but althought it shows no errors; in some transactions (reports) its not updated or rather it still shows the previous and the actual hierarchy values overlapped.
One of the possible solutions its to deactivate and reactivate aggregates, I already entered 0 in transaction RSCUSTV8, also try to find info objects and click on activate master data but none has the option and they are not assigned.
I been reading some solutions that involve making changes to the data that shows in different parts of transaction RSA1, the problem is that in my case there are no data in the transaction just shows some unassigned info objects.
In fact SAP ask me to provide a System Logical Name prior to use transaction RSA1. So problably there are more set up steps missing.
Does somebody knows where should I look for answers.
Thanks
Best Regards,
Carlos
