BPC 10.0 NW - Transport of cubes

Hej gurus,
I want to know what happens, if we delete a cube in the production environment and transport the cube from DEV to PRD. The technical name of the cube in DEV is not equal to the technical name of the cube in PRD.
Will BPC be able to adjust to the new technical name and use this cube for the future, or will BPC crash?
Best regards,
Mikkel Kristensen

Hej Raju,
Thank you very much for your reply.
I have not yet done anything, but we have a problem, because the technical names of the cubes in DEV and PRD are not the same at the moment.
I know the note you have pointed out, and I have imported it, and set the parameters as described in the note. However, when I run a transport, the technical name is not changed.
Do you know anything about the note, and have you tried to use it? Do we need to clear the cube before the transport to enable the aligning of names?
My idea of deleting the cube is just a result of not succeeding in aligning the technical names using the above note.
Best regards,
Mikkel Kristensen

Error while transporting the cube

Hi all,

Hi Mukul,
This is an RC=12 issue.Contact the basis team or raise ticket basis team stating that your specified transport request is got terminated.Basis team will resolve the issue and then you can Import the transport into your acceptance system.
I hope it will help you.

How to collect the BPC parameters into a transport

Hi All
We are in process of transporting out environment for the first time. How are we going to collect all the entries of the BPC parameters in a transport request.
I want to collect all the entries of the UJ0_PARAM_APP table to a transport request. is this we need to do or It has to be manually done when the system is installed in higher environments.
Please advise.
Thanks in advance
AK

Hi AK,
First of all, not all BPC parameters are transportable. Main reason is that they don't always have to have same value across the landscape. For example, you might want having LOG and STATS set to ON in Dev, but not in Prod. Another reason is that some of them will be generated during first write-back.
Most of the parameters are included in transport if you check Configuration check mark in BPC transport collection.
If you still have some parameters that didn't come over you can manually include them in the transport as Type "Table Entry".

The Creation of Export DataSource Failed Error while transporting ODS Cube

Hi All,
I am facing this issue from last 1 week.. i had developed an ODS cube in APO-DP BW which will fetch data from SAP R/3 and its working fine in APO Dev Server. But when i transport this cube into APO PAC(Prodn Server) the below error i am getting..
   Start of the after-import method RS_ODSO_AFTER_IMPORT for object type(s) ODSO (Activation Mode)
   The creation of the export DataSource failed
   Password logon no longer possible - too many failed attempts
   Password logon no longer possible - too many failed attempts
   Error when creating the export DataSource and dependent Objects
   Error when activating DataStore Object ZANAUTSL
I also updated the transport conversion tables but still problem not resolved.
Immediate help is hightly appreciated.
Thanx
AJ

Hi AJ,
Looking at your error, it seems that the RFC user's password is locked and hence connectivity from R/3 towards APO BW is broken.
You know the name of your export datasource (from R/3 to APO BW). Find out the name of your R/3 source system e.g. PACCLT000, by scrolling to the right against teh export data source.
Take help of your Basis or EAI team to identify the RFC destination corresponding to the connectivity from the R/3 source system (PACCLT000) to your APO BW system. (If needed ask for help from your BW team, I am not very sure how connectivity would be set up from R/3 to APO BW, I guess this would be independent from CIF connectivity)
For this RFC connection from R/3 to APO BW, see which RFC user is maintained in SM59 in APO and ask your security team to reset (or unlock) the password of this RFC user in R/3, and then if required update the user password details in SM59 in APO also.
After this, your issue should get resolved.
Thanks - Pawan

How to transport a Cube after a remodeling activity?

Hi
I did a remodeling in a cube, where I´ve added 2 new fields.
It´s being working pretty well in Dev, also the update rules, Cube, ODS, infopackage, everything looks fine, but when I closed the request with the remodeling activity and transported to QA, the changes did not appeared.
My question is, should I transport the Cube again? In this case, should I add in the transport package, update rule, ODS, whatever it´s depended of this Cube?
Thanks
Rody

Hi
Guys Thanks for all the support until now! But did not work at all.
I tried this load several time, each time I´ve tried to bring less records setting some restriction in the Infopackage, but did not resolved either.
I´m creating a new request with everything, Cube, Update, Info, fields, and see if this time it will go ahead.
I´ve also tried other load that uses the same logical source system and it worked, so I guess it´s something related to this specific change.
Any clue will be appreciated.
Thanks

BPC 10.0 NW - Change technical cube name during transport

Hej gurus,
One of our users have run a full optimization, and therefore the technical names of the cubes in DEV and PRD are no longer the same.
We have looked at the SAP notes, and found the following.
1689814 – “Stabilize InfoCube's technical name in the modeling process”
We have made sure the note is on both DEV and PRD, and we have enabled "ENABLE_FIXED_CUBENAME" on all models. By doing this the notes states that: "If the InfoCube technical names of the model are different between source and target system, the technical name of the InfoCube on target system would be changed to the same as the technical name of the InfoCube on source system."
When I run the transport, the transport is succesfull, but the technical name has not changed.
Therfore, I would like to know, if anybody have tried using this note and successfully changed the technical name? If yes, what did you exactly do? Did you transport everything for making it work? clear the database?
I hope somebody can help us.
Best regards,
Mikkel Kristensen

Hi Mikkel,
Did you have any luck with this? The only time I had any luck was changing the target structure (adding a dimension in the target), when the transport went through it changed the structure and reset the technical name to the source name. It doesn't appear to work if the technical name is not due to be reset.
Best,
Chris

Error while transporting standard cube

Hi
We are facing errors while transporting a standard cube and all relevant objects.
While collection it throws errors saying certain routines are not active, whilst unable to find those routines.
If we ignore and transport the same, transformations es are not being transported.
How to resolve this., please provide inputs.
regards
Lavanya

Hi Lavanya
The error log says these objects are in repair mode in this system. I searched the system for the trnsformations, but they are not present. How do we resolve these
This only means that the objects were changed directly in the target system (could be QA or prod) and are captured in some request. You need to find the relevant request on the target system and take the appropriate action. You could chose to delete the request or transport it from QA to Prod.
Find the requests on the target system and you will see the tranaformations collected. However, it is not going to be an easy taskl for you to find as the TR will be with the technical name. But this is definitely the reason for the error.
Cheers

Error while Transporting the cube to Testbox

Hi All,
I Have enhanced my cube with new Keyfigurs & transportinmg to Test box .It is giving errors like:
Key field DIMID has num. type INT4: Buffering not possible, Transport restricted
The SQL statement was not executed
Table /BIC/FZBKUPC (Error adjusting the database)
Table /BIC/FZBKUPC could not be activated
Errors occurred during post-handling RS_AFTER_IMPORT for C
ZBKUPC InfoCube could not be activated etc........ in Method execution of Transport Request uncder se09.
eventhough infocuibe is active in Developement ,But now it is inactive in Test Box & update rules also inactive in Test Box.
Very thanks in advance.
Please suggest me what i need to do.

Thnaks alot Vikram,
In se11 ,when i was trying to activate the /BIC/FZBKUPC , it is showing the warnings like
Key field KEY_ZBKUPCP has num. type INT4: Buffering not possible, Transport restricted.What it means.
In PErformance Window it is showing like:
A numeric type was used for a key field. A table of this sort cannot be buffered.When buffering, the table records for numeric values cannot be stored in plain text.
Procedure
You can enter "no buffering" as an attribute of the technical settings and then repeat the activation process. The table is not buffered.
If you want to buffer the table, you must replace the type in the key field by a character type, i.e. that you must modify the table.
Please adivice with your valueable suggestyions.
Thanks Vikram.

Error when transport Info Cube(0SD_C01)

Hi Experts,
whenever i tried to transport the infocube i came across the following errors. But good thing is that all my object related to cube is in active mode. I had used "data flow before" during transportation. Please note that datasource 0Vtype_text is not present in the R/3 development either. Is this a serious error or can we proceed further without worrying about it? Please find the following error
"Start of the after-import method RS_ISMP_AFTER_IMPORT for object type(s) ISMP (Activation Mode)
DataSource 0VTYPE_TEXT does not exist in source system FGLCLNT850 of version A
Mapping between data source 0VTYPE_TEXT and source system FGLCLNT850 is inconsistent

Problem in transporting cubes

Hi All,
We have transported few cubes along with transformations,DTPs.
All went fine to quality except one property.
In the infoprovider properties(Environment->infoprovider properties->Rollup)Do not coolapse aggregates is selected in Development but when it is transported to quality it is unchecked.This happened before also.Please let us know why it is happening?(All others including formulae,routines are being transportd correctly).Should we change any settings to avoid this problem?
Thanks,
Manohar

Hi,
These are the new cubes.So overwriting issue will come into picture,I guess.
Any how import of requests into BQA is automated.So I don't have exact information.
Thanks,
Manohar

Documents attached to cube: transport?

We want to attach technical documentation to a cube. Problem is that this technical documention will not be transported when we transport the cube.
Any idea on how we can include documents in a transport (manually or automatically)?

Use program RSOD_CTO.

How to do Transports in Microsoft bpc version ? is there any transports?

Hi all,
I am new to Microsoft Bpc version, is there any transports ? for microsoft?
And how the changes are moved from development to quality and from quality to production.
Can anyone brief me about it
Thanks
Pooja

Hi,
In accordance with the above responses provided by the experts, BPC MS doesnt support transports. The MS version doesnt have the lifecycle management.
At the initial phase, when the application set needs to be migrated to the production system, you can take a backup in the dev system and manually copy the backup files to the production system and then restore them using the BPC manager.
At the later stages, if you want to transfer few of the changes, taking backup once again might be troublesome, because in that case, the transactional data in the production system will be overwritten by the backup. In this case, you need to follow a different approach.
Few of the objects like the member sheet, script logics, reports, etc are stored in the webfolder. These can be directly copied to the production box. Apart from these, the BPF related stuffs, work status, etc are not stored in the webfolder. These are stored in the tables. So, either you need to make these adjustments explicitly in the production box or you can export and import these tables in the production.
Hope this helps.

Data load from BPC into BI 7 cubes for Bex reporting

Hi,
Can we pull BPC planning data into the BI cubes so that Bex reports can be created for combined data from BPC cubes and BI cubes?
Also can we create Bex reports on BPC cubes just like we create for BI reporting cubes?
Let me also give an example of the scenario we face.
We have actuals data in a BI 7 basic cube(Actuals cube). Planning is done in BPC, so I understand that the planned data gets automatically stored in a BPC cube in BI7 system. I want to load the data from this BPC cube to BI Actuals cube and create a combined Bex report to show actuals and plan data.
Please let me know.
Thanks,
Archana

AS of now, if you report data in the BPC7NW cubes through BEx, you may not get the same result as you get from BPC reports. The reason being BEx won't do the same calculations (for example sign reversals) that BPC client would do. In addition, you won't be able to report the results of the dimension member formulas when you report through BEx. If you have to get data out from BPC cubes to other cubes, you can go through SQE (shared query engine) and that way, yyour results will match with what you get in BPC reports. Once you get data out through SQE into other cubes, you can use BEx to report if you wish.
More functionality will be available in near future to accomplish BEx reporting for BPC data.
