BEx setting in an ODS

At the moment I am loading to an Inventory Snapshot ODS which does not have the BEx reporting flag set.
After the loads are complete am I able to change the setting and switch the BEx flag on and thereafter be able to report on the ODS or would I need the setting checked before the load? Thanks

Hi Niten,
It's better do before the data load. Because you may not activate ODS again with BEx flag set after data load.

Significance of BEx Reporting flag in ODS objects

Hello Masters,
I would like to know in detail, the Significance of BEx Reporting flag in ODS settings. What happens if we flag, and hat happedn when we dont ?
If, Transaction Data is loaded into the ODS, without loading the relevant Masterdata in advance, are SID's created, as it happens in cube ?
IS there a connection between SID's and ODS objects ?
best wishes,
i BI

Hi,
From SAP help : With the BEx Reporting indicator, you determine whether the ODS object is immediately available for BEx queries. If the indicator is not set, no SIDs are generated for the new characteristics when the data in the ODS object is activated. This optimizes the performance of the activation process, but the ODS object is not available as an InfoProvider for queries. Turn the indicator off for all ODS objects that are only being used for further processing of data in other data targets or that are being used in InfoSets.

How do I set up an ODS for InfoSpoke

When I go into Tranx RSBO and create a new InfoSpoke, I can't find my ODS in the list. I know that I didn't configure something but what is it? Let me know.

HI:
Please note that in the current version, SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0, InfoSpokes are obsolete. Instead, use Open Hub destinations, along with transformations and DTPs for open hub processing.
Thanks for any points -

How to make standard DSO available for reporting?

In previous version I have Bex setting to make ODS for reporting but in new DSO I don't see this kind of seeting. Any Idea?
Actually I want the DSO in the query designer to create an adhoc report.
Thanks in advance.
York

hi,
that option(bex reporting) is taken out from this version in the settings of dso object.
by default all the three types of DSO object provide reporting on it.

Setting an ODS Update Type

I need to create a new ODS that allows a 'D' recordmode to come through.
At the moment, whenever a 'D' recordmode is loaded via a delta in to an existing ODS, the 'D' recordmode changes to an 'R'.
How can you set the new ODS up to receive the 'D' recordmode and not convert it to an 'R'?

If you use 'R', then the key will be removed from the active table of the ODS, and the change log will result in a reversal of what was there to be sent to future targets (like cubes). To get they keys out of the cube, you could either compress the requests in the cube (removing zeros) or do a selective deletion.
If you use 'D', then the key will be removed from the ODS, but nothing will be noted in the change log. If the ODS is the only place the key exists, then that might be fine.
Once the key no longer exists in any InfoProviders, you can remove the data from the InfoObject.

Bex Property of Info object doesn't work when Infoset is Used

Hi,
When I use Business partner info object ( example 0CRM_SALESP or 0BP_ACTIVIT etc) in a query build directly on a ODS(DSO) or infocube, the Bex setting "Query Def Filter Value Selection = Only Values in Info provider" defined in the 'Business Explorer" tab of the infoobject, works perfectly. This means that if the info object has 1 Million records in the master data table, but in the transaction data only 100 are involved, when you define a varialble restriction for the info object , in the selection screen the F4 will only show these 100 data as help.
Although this feature works fine when the query is directly developed ON THE INFO PROVIDER. However when I define a infoset on the same ODS and define a similar query, the F4 value shows all the data from the master data table instead of the ocurance in the transaction data( info provider)..
Is there any way , I can get over this issue.
Thanks
Arunava

Hi,
I guess, I couldn't ecplain the issue properly earlier.
What I am saying that even though I have the proper setting in the BEX tab ("Query Def Filter Value Selection = Only Values in Info provider") for the info object , It behaves differently if the query is defined directly on ODS then on the infoset which is built on top of the ODS.
When the query is build on the ODS the setting works fine
However when the query is defined on the Infoset, the F4 help get the value from the info object master data.
My question is , why this two different behaviour for the same info object? And how do I over conme this to get the same bahavious in info set as of the ODS.
Thanks
Arunava

ODS activation error after the structure change

Hi all,
      I am getting a short dump with " "DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_RSQL" CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DBC " error when I am trying to activate an ODS after changing its structure. Do I need to change any setting before loading the data in to the ODS after adding few more fields to it. Exact error says
An exception occurred. This exception is dealt with in more detail below
. The exception, which is assigned to the class 'CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB', was
neither
caught nor passed along using a RAISING clause, in the procedure
"ACTIVATE_SIDS" "(FORM)"
Thanks

The above-described symptom is due to a program error during the transfer of error messages. The problem can occur, for example, if a hierarchy is activated during the activation of an ODS object.
If the indicator 'BEx Reporting' is set for the ODS object, entries are created in the SID tables of characteristics involved during the activation of requests for this ODS object. Newly-created SID values must then be inserted into hierarchy tables. This is not possible for reasons of consistency if a hierarchy is activated at this time. The RRHI_CHAVLS_REQUEST_TO_HIERA function module is used for inserting newly-created SID values in hierarchies.
To simplify the search for the cause of the problem, additional error messages are now displayed in the monitor. If the problem is triggered, for example, by the simultaneous activation of a hierarchy, the error message RH 14 is issued. As described in note 717967, this error message contains the name of the affected hierarchy. If the activation of an ODS object is cancelled due to a serious error, this now also causes additional entries in the log of transaction SM21 (Syslog). These entries start with the character string '> RSDRO':.

How to find out the Queries Generated for a particular ods?

Hi all,
There are atleast 10 queries generated for a Particular ODs zyyyyy. I would like to know what are the queries generated for a particular ods.
I have used the where use list of the ods. But it did not displayed the queries generated for that ods.
I have looked at the bex query for that ods but cant find any query being generated on that ods??
Is there any way to find out what are the queries generated for a particular ods?
thanxs
haritha

Hello Haritha,
Please follow the path.
Go to RSA1 -> Metadata Repository ->DataStore Objects(ODS) -> Find you DSO(ODS) there and click on that, you will get all the details(Queries, Objects - Char, Key figures, update rules,etc..) related to that particular DSO(ODS), same is the case for Cube as well.
Please assign points.

Transfer of data from ODS to ODS

Hi,
I have update rules set up from ODS 1 to ODS 2. I would like to take all ODS data into the ODS 2. In BI 7.0 we use transformations for this. How do we do this in the older version?
Thanks

Hi,
If the system is still 3.5 then you will have to go to generated infosource object for this DSO in Infosource tab.
Find the generated infosource for the source DSO1 begining with 8* like 8DSO1.
Create an infopackage here at the data source below this infosource.
Now you can schedule a full repair load from DSO 1 to DSO2.
Its just like scheduling the data load from data source to PSA in BI 7.0.
The only difference is here is with infopackage you can schedule the data directly into the targets and not till PSA only.. as it is case with BI7.0
Create a new a new infopackage- init without data transfer .
Create another infopackage-Full repair
Here give selections if the data is huge and cannot be scheduled at one go.and load selectrion by selection.
Hope it helps
Thanks

ODS data activation problem

Hi,
I have to load description from the flat file into the ODS since the ODS data needs to be a replica of the flat file.
As the description is greater than 60 CHAR, I have split the description into 3 infoobjects in the transfer rule, using the individual line routine.
After data is loaded into the ODS, the technical status as well as the total status is green, but when I activate the request for that corresponding load, the activation fails i.e. the data is present in the 'New Data' table, but it is not moving into the 'Active Data' table.
Then, I tried a different method.
I activated the setting in the ODS; 'Activate ODS object data automatically' and tried to load the same data with the same conditions to the ODS.
This time the loading failed, giving multiple errors like;
1) Value 'Absence Transactrion Dataload Failure ' (hex. '416273656E6365205472616E7361637472696F6E204461.
2) Value 'ifying days ' (hex. '696679696E672064617973 ') of characteristic Z_LDES2 contains invalid cha.
3) Activation of data records from ODS object DES3_ODS terminated.
4) System error: RSDU_ANALYZE_TABLE_ORA/ ORACLE.
5) Error getting SID for ODS object DES3_ODS.
6) Error when assigning SID (details in long text).
7) Error when assigning SID (details in long text).
Please provide a solution for this.
<b>*********Points will be rewarded*********</b>

Hi Praveen,
Thanks for the soltion.
I checked in RSRV. There were no errors.
So, I tried loading the data again. This time, I got the same error.
But when I checked the contents of the Active table of ODS, the data was loaded, although in RSMO the status was RED.
The laoding was successfull as of now, but lets hope this problem doesnt occur again.
Please help, if you have any idea regarding this problem.

Query on Cube jumps to Query on ODS ; Query on ODS takes Long time

Hi All,
Perormance Issue: Query on Cube jumps to Query on ODS.
Query on ODS taking long time.(JumpQuery)
Specific to ODS Query: When i have checked the Query on ODS(individually) also taking longer time
Actually ODS contains quite huge data. Indexes already maintained.
I have checked the RSRT- Execute SQL and Debug Option also. Indexes maintained Perfectly .
Order of objects in ODS indexes are matching the order of Objects in SQL stat of RSRT Trans. Inspite of that taking long time.
I have checked both the ways jumpquery aswellas individually .
My question is when the query is jumping from cube to query on ODS how to check the performance, how the query is executing in background when switching over to the second query, Moreover calculated keyfigure has been used for jumping to the target query.
How can query(ods query) time is optimized or improve performance when jumping from query on Cube ?
can any body help?
Rgds,
C.V.

What i understand is that you need to optimise the Query jumping time . But this will be very less compared to the time taken by the query on the ODS.
Ideally you shouldnt be making a BEx Query on the ODS , as this takes a long time. What you can do is try executing the Bex Query on the ODS to find out as to where the issue lies. If this query is taking a long time , there is not muich that you can do here.

Urgent Help plzzzzzzzzz Hierarchy in Bex displaying like Not Assigned Mater

Hi Experts,
plz solve my problem like displaying Hierarchy in Bex ,
I loaded hierarchy from R/3 system into Bw 0Mterial.
In Bex 0material Properties I Selected heirachy on Material , this heirarchy having 8 levels,
but in the out put it showing only one level displayng
like Not Assigned Material.
i did all the bex setting well, but i dnot know why i am getting this ...
plz any one help..
Thanks in advance
Anil

Hi Anil,
Your query is built on an infoprovider, right? The way the hierarchy is displayed depends on TRANSACTION DATA IN INFOPROVIDER. To display the hierarchy normally you need to have in the provider not blank values of the characteristics you used in the query and not blank material code. Unassigned node means that this requirement doesn't met.
If would be much more useful if you describe what you have in the query and what - in the provider.
Best regards,
Eugene

Workflow status missing in ODS held & sample documents

Dear experts,
we are trying to create a Bex report on the ODS for held & sample docs. For this report we want to be able to filter on the workflow status. The problem we have is that the workflow status (0BCS_WFSTAT) is missing in the ODS. It is available however in the virtual cube for held & sample documents.
Wha can give us some advise?
I know that there is a report in the workbench to check this as well, but we want a bex report also.
KR, Ewald

Sorry Ewald, I don't really understand what is your issue. Actually, the BCS best practise is to develop your BEx report on the virtual cube, not directly on the direct update DSO. The purpose is to have the correct data (with consolidation logic applied) in your reporting.
