BI Business content in BI 7.0 flow

Is there any place where the release plan for BI Content is available?
The basic thing that I want to know is when will be the BI 7.0 Version of Business Content be available? This would help in deciding to activate the current BW 3.5 flow or wait for BI 7.0 flow.
I am planning to implement the Business Content for Plant Maintenanace (PM). I know that now the content is in BW 3.5 version, but no idea when will it be available in BI 7.0 flow.
TIA
Abhishek

Hi
My question is whether SAP is providing the Business Content for PM in BI 7.0 flow or not? We have to install the Business Content on BI 7.0 system. So if SAP is providing the content in 7.0 we will install that directly and enhance it when required.
Otherwise we have to install the 3.5 content and then upgrade to BI 7.0 flow as and when we modify/enhance the content. The only problem here is we will have to understand the custom routines in the content and migrate them to BI 7.0.
I hope you understand the requirement.
Regards
Abhishek

Short Dump during Business Content Installation

Hi Gurus,
       I'm working on SAP BI 7.0. I'm getting a Short Dump Error stating " Program error: ASSIGN with length 0 in program "SAPLSNR3". " while I'm try to install the Business Content.
      I'm getting this error when I'm trying to install Business Content with Grouping Option " Data flow Before ", but I didn't face any problem when I started off with the Grouping Option " Only Necessary Objects ".
     I tried analysing this problem by going to ST22 transaction & during my analysis I found that in the said program " SAPLSNR3 ", there's LSNR3F01 include in which line number 178 is having a ASSIGN statement, where its trying to assign a computed value to some data variable. Now i understand that there's some problem with the value getting computed in the ASSIGN statement.
     I also tried finding some SAP Notes for the same problem, but to my misery I couldn't find anything appropriate. Could anyone of you who had faced similar problem help me out.
     For further assistance in making your replies much easier here in I'm adding the information about BI 7.0 system components.
           SAP ABAP:               Level 12
           SAP BASIS:               Level 12
           SAP BW:                   Level 14

Waiting for a early solution from U guyz.........

Business Content not Loaded?

Hi Folks,
Is it possible that during a BI install certain business content does not get loaded into the system? Is there a way to reload missing business content. The problem I have is as follows:
When activating business content cube 0CRM_C08 with data flow after I get an error while collecting business content. The error is
"Object 0PH_C01 (InfoCube,CUBE) could not be collected for object 8GKZ2KVI3EB2XK75QSDO85Q4Z (Query,ELEM)"
Now when I go to take a look at the available cubes in the meta data repository 0PH_C01 does not exist.
Anyone else have similar issues with business content not being loaded in the system? I find that I have this problem in both our BI7.0 system and our BI 7.0 IDES system
Thanks.

HI
I have checked in my system also. 0CRM_C08 This InfoCube contains date about the CRM activity items. It is based on the Activity Items ODS object (technical name: 0CRM_ACTI).
As you mentioned like that The cube is not based on the another cube(0PH_C01). And it is not available in Metadata Repository also.
May be you are looking in wrong way. Please check it once again.
Any furhter questions are there please let me know.
Thanks & Regards,

Is there a Purchasing Business Content Data Flow

Hi, I'm looking to install the Purchasing Business Content. 0PUR_C01, 0PUR_O01, 0PUR_O02, etc...
Is there anywhere that SAP might have a Data Flow Graphic of how it all flows? I wouldn't think it would be that difficult for them to include something like this.
Thanks!

Hi please check the below url.

Data Flow Question in newly Migrated Business Content Install

Hi, I just converted my Purchasing Business Content from 3.5 to 7.x. This Content Loads the InfoCube directly from the Data Source. After my DataFlow Migration I am left with still having an InfoSource.
Here is a picture of my Data Flow
http://i55.tinypic.com/258b7zs.png
I thought I would not have an InfoSource after all of this. Is this correct?
Thanks for any help with this...

Hi, Kenneth,
I beleive it's absolutley correct result after migration.
I had the same thing with infosources when migrating 0sd_c03 and never had issues with that.
Infosurces can be used in 7 data flow as sometimes it's a good thing to have additional transformation between source and target (allow for more flexibility in data transformation)
By the way your infosurce also migrated as its a 7.x infosource now. I beleive it has a different object type compared to old 3.x infosurce. You can actually check the object type in se11, Tadir, select by your infosurce name.

How to get zdata flow for business content data flow

Hi Experts,
i have done business content installation for mttr/mtbr i.e OPM_DSO2 which gets loaded from 0PM_DSO1 and 0PM_DSO1 gets loaded from
2LIS_17_I0NOTIF and 2LIS_18_I0NOTIF i want to change the whole dataflow to zdataflow
so i have created zinfosources with copy of original infosource and done the datasource assignment , and created the update rules for them and finally want to create update rules from 0PM_DSO1 to 0PM_DSO2 , here my question is i cant get standard routines here so how do i create z dataflow
please advise

Hi,
First understand existing standard routine, based on that you can maintain custom routine for zdata flow. Take abap expert help.He can analyze for standard routine function and will write required logic at zdata flow.

Unable to 'set the default source system' to Install Business Content

Hi,
Maars here. This is my first post hoping that in future ones I'll also be lending a helping hand.
I am trying to 'Install Business Content' under the BUSINESS CONTENT section in txn RSA1. I am doing this after 'Transfer Data Sources' in R/3 and I can now see all the data sources (under the application component hierarchy) for the source system. But I am not able to see the Info Objects in the Business Content.
When I try to set R/3 as the default source system (got this screen after clicking a icon in the standard tool bar), BW is not saving the settings ie., I set the R/3 as the default and then click on OK. If I go back to the same screen again, I find that my settings were NOT saved.
Could you please help me out?
Thank you.

Hi,
It seems to be a bug in version 3.5.
Do like this:
After you open the screen to <i>choose the dafault source system</i>
Clcik on 3rd button(F6) available in the bottom of the scrreen.
And then select teh tick mark for required system.
And then click on Continue button
You have do this step before you drop the cube to right side of the cube.
Ok, even after all these steps , if you reopen the screen you would not see Tick mark u have done just before. DONOT WORRY ABT it.
Drag and drop required cube with dat flow before.
Now you can see the Transfer rules with selected Source system only in the collected Objects.

Taking too much time incollecting in business content activation

Hi all,
I am collecting business content object for activation. I have selected 0fiAA_cha object,while cllecting in the activation but it is taking too much time and then it asks for source
system authorisation and then throws error maximum run time exceded. i have selected data flow before there.
What can be the reason for it.
Please help..

Hi ,
You should also always try and have the latest BI content patch installed but I don't think this is the problem. It seems that there
are alot of objects to collect. Under 'grouping' you can select the option 'only necessary objects', please check if you can
use this option to install the objects that you need from content.
Best Regards,
Des.

DataSources
New DataSources have been created for NW 2004s BI Content Add-On 2 and SRM 5.0. These are described here, along with their extraction logic.
The following graphic shows the data flow from the DataSources to the DataStore objects
Structure
Each DataSource has an extraction structure and a data extractor. Generally, this is an RFC-capable function module.
There are two types of extraction: Specific extraction and generic extraction:
Specific extraction is strongly oriented towards the data model of the BI System and the necessary extract structure. It executes DataSource-specific processing steps.
The logic contained within the generic extraction is implemented centrally and can therefore be reused by the specific extraction modules. The generic extraction deals with access to the SRM database and is similar for each DataSource.
Generic and specific extraction
Extraction logic in detail
Data extraction involves the following six function modules:
InitLoad
InitLoad is called as soon as an initial upload is started in the BI System. In other words, it is executed when data is loaded into the BI System for the first time. The module can restrict the data extraction according to filter criteria that were defined in BI during extraction (for example, extract the data for a particular timeframe). InitLoad packages the data before it is transferred to the BI System.
DeltaLoad
DeltaLoad is called when a document is modified in the SRM System. The module writes data that has accumulated since the initial loading to a delta queue.
Data Collector
The Collector reads the required data from the database in the source system. For performance reasons, the data is then buffered in system-internal tables. The tables have the same structure as in the database. This saves time and effort, because data conversion is kept to a minimum.
Data Consolidator
The Consolidator groups data that belongs together from a business point of view. The consolidated data is stored in internal tables and is prepared for further processing.
Data Normalizer
The Denormalizer prepares the source data for the BI System. It calculates key figures that are required for the report but are not contained on the database and converts data types in the source system to data types of the BI System. Depending on the BI data model, the system now decides how each row is filled with data.
Data Mapper
During mapping of the data, the system defines which fields of the denormalized data structure are assigned to the fields of the extract structure. In this way, flat and one-dimensional lines are generated from the data.
The following table shows the technical names of the function modules of the individual DataSources:
Description
0SRM_TD_PO
0SRM_TD_CF
0SRM_TD_IV
0SRM_TD_PO_ACC
InitLoad

Business Content for Bill Up transaction in CRM system

To all Experts,
I'm currently working on a project that requires Bill Up transactional data ( Source Table: CMSD_BU ) to flow from CRM to BW system. I'm looking for Business Content that can fulfill this requirement. However, till to date, I couldn't find any information of such Business Content. I'm not sure if such BC exist. Can anyone help if you have experience implement this data flow?
When searching for the DataSource / Extractor, I found BW Extract Structure CMST_BU_BW and CMST_BU_BW_C in the CRM system. But couldn't find any DataSource for both extract structure. Not sure if we need to install any support pack in order make the BC available in the system. Please help if you have any idea.
Thanks in advance.

Problem while installing a query from Business Content

Hi all of you,
I am trying to install this particular query Inventory Turnover from the cube 0IC_C03 (Material/Stock Movements) from Business Content. Now in the third pane in Business Content under Active version available column across the name of this cube there is a calendar symbol.
a.     So does it mean that the cube 0IC_C03 (Material/Stock Movements) is installed along with all the objects that are dependent on the cube and all those objects on which the cube is dependent. (NOTE: I had selected the grouping option as In data flow afterwars)
b.     When I collapse Query Element I find that some of the queries are not installed. So I expanded Inventory Turnover query, right clicked on it and selected Install All Below.
c.     I am getting this error, Abort system error in program SAPLRRI2 and form LI_SETZEN-01- when I execute the query Inventory Turnover. However in Business Content when I installed the report Inventory Turnover under the cube Material Stock/Movement I didnt get any error anywhere. Everything was activated successfully without any errors.
Please tell me how do I install this Inventory Turnover from business content and how do I execute this report from BEx.
Thank you.
TR.

Hi Arun,
Thank you for that quick reply. I want to activate only the query and not the cube. I did as you advise me but still I am getting the same error when I run the Inventory turnover report from BEx.
I am able to run other reports from the cube IC_C03. But not this report Inventory turnover. I have also checked the cube and there is data in the cube.
Kindly adivse what to do.
Thank you.
TR.

ERROR while activating the Business Content of Sales Cube 0SD_C03

Hi,
iam facing an error, iam getting the error while activating the Business Content sales info cube and Inventory info cube with the collection option DATA FLOW BEFORE. In my system the service pack was 14, what shall be the approach. Here iam getting the error like some 0DB-- objects are not available in the D version. if u have any solution for this please share with use also.
Please treat this as an urgent, because we are unable to proceed with the further Business Content Activation.
Thanks,
Prabhakar.

Hi Raj,
I have searched for those objects in the BI content for activating those objects, but those objects are not available in the BI content.
In general while activating the info cube if any object is in inactive means we will activate the object seperatly and we will activate the info cube it will resolve the issue. but here those 0DB-- objects are not available in the BI content.
While activating the sales and inventory info cube it was throughing the short dump, In the short dump it is showing these message.
ASSIGN_LENGTH_0 " "
SAPLSNR3 or "LSNR3F01"
LOCAL_BUFFER
please treat this as urgent.
Thanks
Prabhakar.

Error during activation of business content

Hi
I am facing problems during the activation of the standard business content.
I am trying to activate the infocube 0ic_c03 material stock movement. We are using BW version 3.5 patch level 13.
while activating the business content and using the grouping "in data flow before" there are several errors which come up during the simulation install such as
infoobject XXX is not available in version A
Error when reading data target XXXX
Data source XX not mantained
Key figure XXX is not available in version D
In order to avoid activating pre-installed objects i have deselected them.
I am in urgent need of some help. So any ideas that will help to resolve my problem are assured of being rewarded handsomely!!
thanks in advance!

Hi Everyone!
Thanks the responses have been encouraging and i do see a glimmer of hope
since i am fairly new at this I wanted to know
1. does it make sense to install (or activate) the infoobjects which are shown as not available in version A individually and then trying the install of the infocube. It does remove the errors associated with the infoObject as i saw with one infoobject. Does this have any other impact
2. For the data sources i went to rsa5 on the source r3 system. but the data sources listed in the errors were not found (the data source errors that are shown are of the type 0DBDUNS_IMPORT_XXX). Also it is my understanding that the data sources that are required for the inventory cube are 2lis_03_bx , 2lis_03_bf and 2lis_03_um. Is this correct? I do not see them indicated in these errors. What do i do once i am in rsa5 and i select these datasources?
thanks in advance!

BI 7 Activate Business Content Best Practice?

Guru,
Could you share your experience on how to activate business content in BI 7. In 3.x, I used to activate business content based on infosource then crate ods and infocube based on in infosource. Now in BI 7 infosource is no longer necessary. Please share your thoughts of best practice on activate business content in BI 7.
Thanks,
John

Hi,
To actiavte the objects in the BI content u can select which ever object u want and then select the collection mode as all the objects before and after....
this will ideally activate all the objects that are required for the functionin of the object that you have selected .......
In simpler way....
RSA1-> Business Contents-> Select your objects-> On the right hand side, select "automatic collection" under "collection mode" and Select "before and after data flow" -> Right Click the selected objects on the left hand side and right click -> Insert Objects for collection-> Once the selected objects comes to the right hand side, select "install" and click "install in background".
See this also....
