accordingly look for the base key figures for the same. I would not put a finger to many , but essentially for finance look at FI data - especially GL postings , cost center postings , AR/AP etc
for Customer Service - CRM data would help , Sales Data - SD - invoices , orders etc
Internal - HR
business processes - depends on the system
Also the key figures for the same depends on the business rather than a generic business model that would fit all. First you will have to study the business process and understand the business rules and operating conditions before proceeding.

I also have a .csv file with the name of a jpeg in one column and a text description of each jpeg in a second column. Is there a way to automatically insert one jpeg (photo) and its corresponding text, each pair on one page, into a Indesign document?

I also have a .csv file with the name of a jpeg in one column and a text description of each jpeg in a second column. Is there a way to automatically insert one jpeg (photo) and its corresponding text, each pair on one page, into a Indesign document?

I would also recommend to write the description into the meta data. This would allow to place a text frame above the image and it is possible to add meta information and file name automatically together with the image, when you place it or even in a prepared template.
Meta data information can be written easily in Bridge in the Meta File Workspace.

Domains and Logical Types in Data Modeler

Been out of serious design work for a long time. Can someone provide a good pointer to descriptions on Domains and Logical Types and presented in the Data Modeling tool?
For instance I am having trouble tracking the following distinctions:
Domain Logical Type
LongText Varchar
ShortText Char
Text Char
NText NTEXT
NVarchar NVARCHAR
CHAR and VARCHAR are listed as Logical Types but not Domains. There is a TEXT logical type, but ironically, it does not correspond to the Text Domain. Varchar2 appears in neither list. I believe I ready the N* domains/types are for international characters (multi-byte?), but basically see no pattern here so was hoping someone could straighten me out.
Thanks,
Robert Kuropkat

Hi Robert,
Logical types are abstraction for native data types in supported databases. You need logical types if you want to import from database or DDL script (mapping of native to logical is important here) or want to generate DDL script (mapping of logical to native). You can delete all logical types (only "unknown" has importance) and create your own logical types. In this case you have to map them to native database types. If you use only Oracle database then you can delete types related to other databases. Of course you can rename existing logical types if you don't like how they are named.
Domains are based on logical types - you need logical type in order to have valid domain definition. Provided domains are just sample. You can delete them - the only important here is "unknown". You can create two types of domains (it's usage point of view) - 1) per installation - common for all designs; 2) per design - they appear only for design they are defined. You also can import domains.
Also domains are automatically created during import of DDL script - it's kind of data type aggregation - domain is created for each used data type.

Get question id's and its corresponding answer id for given Doc id's

Hi,
I am trying to write a program which gets the Equality values (Questionaire - Erecruiting) like :
1) Gender
2) Care Resp
3) Care Type
4) Ethnic Origin
5) Religion
6) Disability
7) Sexual Orientation
8) Age Range
And move it to an internal table which has each Equality as a field.
I referred to the following tables in order to get the question id's and its corresponding answer id's for questionaire.
1) hrp5141
2) hrp5125
3)T77RCF_INFDAT
And i tried to fetch the equality data using the class CL_HRRCF_QA_BL. This class returns the values from hrp5141. It also returns the object id, answer id and answer text. CL_HRRCF_QA_BL class also intern calls the function module HRHAP_DOCUMENT_GET_DETAIL, which gets the set of questions and its answers. But this question id's and answer's differ for document id's (QA_DOC_GUID).
Here the problem is the object id for Doc id's (QA_DOC_GUID) are differing.
Example 1: I have taken first QA_DOC_GUID - BF2C554821CFBFF180C5DKDINGKGNSKE as input to check its question and answer using CL_HRRCF_QA_BL class.
The question id is here I am assuming is 20366558 and the corresponding answer id is 20368559 for Gender.
Example 2: I randomly picked one more QA_DOC_GUID - BAS06AE4533374F1B3CF0018F346808A. The question id here is 50368915 and answer id is 50368918 for gender which is different from the first example.
I am not able to decide on other fields as the answers for it could be generic viz., YES, NOT, Prefer not to answer etc. Whereas Gender holds the value of either Male, Female or Prefer not to answer, Religion holds Religion name or Prefer not to answer value and similarly Age holds the age range or Prefer not to answer value.
Can anybody suggest on how to get the equalities values (the question id's and its corresponding answer id's).
Appreciate quick response.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks and Regards,
Rashmi

Hello RichR,
To setup an iCloud account, you don't need an existing email address. Take a look at this article which contains more information about iCloud email:
iCloud: Mail overview
When you set up iCloud with a new Apple ID that doesn’t use an existing email address, your new Apple ID ends with @icloud.com and is the email address for your free iCloud Mail account. If your Apple ID doesn’t end with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com, you must set up an @icloud.com email address before you can use iCloud Mail.
If you already use iCloud Mail with an @mac.com or @me.com email address, you also have an @icloud.com email address. You have an @icloud.com equivalent for every active @me.com or @mac.com email address or alias that you have as part of your account.
After you set up your iCloud Mail account, you can sign in to icloud.com/#mail and start using iCloud Mail on the web right away. To use iCloud Mail on your devices, you must set it up on each device. For more information, see Set up iCloud Mail on your devices.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Take Care,

What kind of real time problems and issues arise in Data Modelling

Hellooo experts,
I am not a BW expertise, so just want to gather some knowledge on Problems and issues related to DATA MODELLING, if any body have a document or a link can you please snd it to [email protected] or reply to this post. I promise to reward you for proper answers hope this is the way i say thanks for your help.
kishore

hi kishore,
The first and most important problem is to understand Clients requirement. Clients even some time not aware of how to utilize efficiency of BW, as they are very much use to with traditional SAP R/3 reporting. So most of time we have to suggest options to client.
If we come to technical aspect, than identifying Key Figures and Characterstics is the most important task. And how you map that to available infoobjects. Attributes also plays major roles, like which attributes is better to use as navigational one and which as exclusive attribute.
Their is long list for data modelling issues, its better you refer either Mastering BIW book by Mac'Donalds. And SAP Help Library is also having good material.

From which table check 'cost element' and its corresponding GL account?

Hi,
May i know from which could i check the cost element field and its corresponding GL account field??
Questions:
"the getting cost element should check the corresponding GL account, but I canu2019t find the
corresponding table which include these two fields. So, if you know the table in which cost element can check the corresponding GL account, please tell me ."
Is below way correct:
From table CSKA, i could get the chart of accounts related with the cost elements.
Then from table SKA1, i could get the GL account according to chart of accounts field.
Then i got an relation between Cost element with GL account??
Thanks!!

Hi
Could not locate the table, but could find that, if you come to transaction KA02, click on Environment - Display General Ledger account - In Chart of Account/ In Company Code option, then you can display the GL account for individual cost elements.

Questions on Subviews and Import/Export in Data Modeler v3 EA1.

I have a few questions about the capabilities of Data Modeler v3 EA1:
1) Is it possible to rename subviews? Would like more meaningful names then Relational_x - Subview_x.
2) Is it possible to save documents at subview level?
3) Is it possible to import/export subsets of data?
4) Having problems importing Erwin 7 .xml file, is there known problems with this import?
Judy

Hi Judy,
1) To rename a subview just right click on it in the browser tree and select "Properties". In the properties dialog change the name and click OK button.
2) You can save a subview as new Data Modeler design - from the File menu select Export -> To Data Modeling Design. In the newly opened dialog select the subview you want to export and click OK button.
3) After saving a subview as new design (see answer #2) it can be imported in some other design (File -> Import -> Data Modeler Design).
4) What kind of problems do you have with import of Erwin 7.* xml file?
Regards,
Ivan

Can SAP leverage MM and classification (CL-system) data-model?

Dear all,
At the moment Im working for a telecom company, setting up the Functional Management department activities to manage 2nd line support calls, and general overall application functional support.
One of the issues is simplifying the work of monitoring Item (products, articles etc.) Master Data. Below you can see the data model where Items, their classes, the characteristics of classes and prices are stored.
The Legacy system has the following data-model (as ERD, <a href="http://sapparking2007.freehostia.com/LegacyModel.JPG">LegacyModel</a> )
Main Product (i.e. Nokia 6110)
 - has zero, one or more Characteristics (i.e. 220v cord, 3v battery etc.)
 - has zero, one or more Variants (i.e. Nokia 6110i, Black, Red etc.)
 A Variant (Nokia 6110i, Black)
 - has zero, one or more Characteristics (i.e. 200h stand by time etc.)
 - has zero, one or more Deliveries (i.e. we sell a package)
 A Delivery (certain combination of a package : Nokia 6110i, Red, Prepaid, 1 year)
 - Has zero, one or more Characteristics (i.e. prepaid simcard, free service etc.)
 - Has zero, one or more Delivery Prices (i.e. prices)
 A Delivery Price
 - Has zero, one or more Characteristics (i.e. 1 month warenty)
 - Has zero, one or more Prices (i.e. offer price, sales, periods)
Well, almost perfectly normalised data-model.
The implementation in SAP is as follows:
Main Products , Variant and Deliveries are all stored in table MARA.
Product is Artikeltype Z01A,
Variant is type KMAT,
Deliveries is type HAVA and DIEN.
See image:
<a href="http://sapparking2007.freehostia.com/Model01.JPG">Current Data Model</a>
The Characteristics are stored in table CABN etc
The prices are stored in the SD table KONP .. (price condition). etc.
The MARA table is connected to Classes table (KSSK) via the INOB table.
Classes are connected to Classes with in de KSSK table.
The filed that stores Class in the KSSK and the field that stores the Class below are 2 different type of fields (18C , and 50CN) and they would simply wont join in a SAP query.
The filed that stores Item to Class in the INOB and the field that stores the Class in the KSSK are 2 different type of fields (18C , and 50CN) and they would also wont join in a SAP query.
Therefore we have created extra Z. Tables (Types actually) that does the join for us.
Functional Management personnel are not ABAP and SQL people. So we have to keep it simple.
After a training session it proved to be still too complicated. After a Change Request, to create the product structure in a separated, single table, has resulted in a batch job, that create the file periodically, but not all of it. And at the end, you never know if your data is up-to-date.
To me it seems logical to add a (derived) field to the KSSK and the INOB to accumulate the underlying class with the same attributes as the MARA and KSSK, so it can be properly joined. But here there is too much resistant in conjunction with SAP releases etc. AND it seem to be impossible (not sure) to define a type table with a derived field.
To let programmers produce more ABAP is not a clean option either, and yes I realise one can create a sap query on a single table, and add a long SQL statement on Record level.
So the question:
- Is this implementation the best possible in SAP?
- How to overcome the unjoinable friendly database?
In other query tools it is possible to create tables as output (on the fly), where the tables can be used as input tables in a next query, and can be joined further.
- Is this somehow possible in SAP?
I wonder if anyone can shade some light on this approach. We have 2 FTE to monitor 2.5 million products combinations, and the propagation of this data to over 30 sales channels daily.
Thank you in advance for taking the time!
Kind Regards,
Doron.

SEM-CPM Balanced Scorecard and time-variant results/scores

Hi everyone!
I have successfully created a basic Balanced Scorecard with SAP SEM 4.0. By configuring the "Value Fields" and using "Formula Result-Score Assignment", I have specified which results are equivilant to what score. As an example, a have defined that a process cycle time of 25 minutes is equivilant to a score value of 85 (out of 100) and a process cycle time of 20 minutes is equivilant to a score value of 100.
Since I want to use my Balanced Scorecard for strategic planning (along with SEM/BW-BPS), I want these result-score assignments to vary of the upcoming period. As an example, in 6 months time a process cycle time of 20 minutes should be a score of 100 (as above). But since I want to improve my operational performance, in 12 months time a cycle time of 17 should be 100 (as my process cycle time should have improved by then). In other words, my planning targets should be dynamic (depending on time) and not only static (always the same).
My question is now, how can I define different Result-Score Assignment (in other words: goals/targets) for different time horizons? Can I do that with integrating SEM/BW-BPS?
Best regards, Daniel

ECC Client export and import with BW data model

Dear BW Expert,
We are now have BW QAS system which is connecting to ECC600QAS.
Now we are going to:
     First >> Export data ECC600QAS.
     Second Drop this client
     Third Create client with the same logical name as ECC600QAS and then import again with the same logical system name is ECC600QAS. Ofcourse we will re-establish again connection between ECC600QAS and BW QAS.
In this case, do we need to create all data model or mapping data in BW again. Please help on this.
Thanks and Regards,
Kim Cheo.

Hi Reddy,
All your notes do not mention anything about in case Client refresh with the same logical name.
Our case is that we do:
      Step 1:         Export client logical name is "ECC600QAS".
      Step 2:         Drop client "ECC600QAS"
      Step 3:         Import again and create the same client logical name "ECC600QAS".
      In this case do we need to create again all data model, mappying rule or transformation.
      Really, I can not found any idea there in all your note.
Thanks and regards,
Kim CheolYeon Lee.

OCM, the Balanced Scorecard, and Fostering Collaboration

Many organizations try to implement a management methodology, like the Balanced Scorecard, in order to improve performance and meet the shifting needs of the marketplace.
When developing a scorecard, the organization identifies what it believes are the key performance indicators that are driving the business. And while it is easy enough to formulate a plan with shared goals and teamwork, realizing and executing on that plan can be more challenging.
During every step of this process, from communicating the goals, to identifying KPIs, to executing on the strategy, requires attention to change management.
How does an organization move toward a unified set of objectives when that means getting collaboration between departments and functions that typically compete for attention, turf, and resources?
Do you have any examples of how Organizational Change Management was effectively used to better the cooperation and interaction between departments? Were there any good lessons learned?
Bob

Hi Bob,
We have used the "Portfolio" approach effectively to address the competing needs of various departmernts,functions.
A portfolio of the plans / initiatives under progress with the details in terms of money,Time etc is drawn and discussed in the workshop of the stake holders.The dependencies are also identified and discussed in detail.This is signed-off.
Based on the above it is easy to draw a heat map in terms of sensitivity and significance.This largely helps in bringing under control the competing departments etc.
If still the problem exists or in case of a tie,we can apply other constraints like money-cost of capital-,pay back period,skill set requirement, higher ROI relevant to a particular plan etc.
If we apply the yard stick logically in terms of the "value creation",the job of change management is half done.
In practice i have seen the delayed execution of the plans,the quality problems,the delayed collection of cash,bad relationship with the client really upset our plan.There should be a good governance in these areas.In a portfolio of "Resource constrained projects" the above will have a telling effect.
Lesson learned:
The Managers who fight for priority on logical reasoning in fact do good to the firm.They bring in the scenarios -often real time-and potray the effect.On the other hand the pliable Managers accept to every thing resulting in to missed oppurtunities, abnormal idleness in terms of idle time,idle resources,thus allow changes to happen at a very high price.In the process they inflict an irreversible damage.
Often the "good will" considerations prevail,meaning,even if the project is ranked last in the portfolio,if the customer is powerful or is potentially important from a future point of view,then these low ranked projects pierce thro' the filter at the cost of the "good ones" to the detriment of the organization.The significant side effect is,the performing departments get demoralized,frustrated with the poor allocation of the resources,delay etc.This sets a domino,which may threaten the very "business continuity".Resource buffering is essential to counter these.
In Change Management "For every Prize,there is a Price".This has to be examined from the value perspective.otherwise we are lost.

What is the best way to create a SSRS Report with Header Data and its associated child data

So I have Member Information...Member ID...Member Addressing...etc.. I want to display this in the top part of the report like...
Member Name:
Member ID:
Member Address Line 1:
And then below I want to report on all the claims associated with a Member ID that is chosen by the Parameter. Obviously the Claim Data will be in Table format. Do I necessarily have to associate the Member Information with the Claim Information or simply
use the same parameter? And what is the best Toolbox item to use to display the Member Information on top?
Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated by this newbie.
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.
ITBobbyP

Hi ITBobby,
According to your description, you want to display all Claim Data for each Member. Right?
In Reporting Services, we can use a table to display those Claim Data and make them group on Member ID. If you want to display the Member Information, we can put the data fields on parent group level. Then we can use create a parameter to filter the Member
ID we need. We have tested this scenario in our local environment. Here are steps and screenshots for your reference:
1. Create a DataSet(DataSet1) which contains the data fields of Member and Claim.
2. Create a table and drag the Claim data into the table.
3. In Row Group. Right click on Details and add a parent group.
4. Select Member_ID in Group by.
5. Right click on the textbox of Claim data. Select Insert Row->Outside of Group-Above. Drag the MemberName into the inserted row.
6. In Report Data, right click on Parameter-> Add Parameter.
7. Type Member_ID in Name and Prompt, select allow multiple values.
8. In Available Values, select get data from a query. Choose DataSet1, select Member_ID in values and label. You can also set this in Default Values if you need.
9. Save and preview.
