BW and SEM BCS Ides

Hi,
Are there any BW and SEM BCS IDES available?
If yes, where can I download them?
Thanks.

  • Master Data synchronisation between BW and SEM BCS

    Hi,
    Can any one guide me how to synchronize data between BW and SEM BCS.
    Master data like Cost centre, Segment, Profit centers and all other sub assignments are created in BW  from source ystem i.e SAP.
    Now when I upload data into BCS, i am facing errors l;ike master data doex not exists.
    Currently I am Flexible upload for updating into BCS.
    So pls suggest me hoe to proceed this approach in Production? IS there any synchronisation program which does this automatically from BW to BCS?
    Regards,
    Richard

    Hi Scotsman,
    The issue is, here we have created Sub Assignments, where the master data for these sub assignments will increase on daily basis.
    Can say atleast 50 Sub assignmenrs are created as new master data, example: Customer is a sub assignment, but it is assigned only for few accounts, so taking sub ledgerlevel data inco is not an issue.
    Now when transaction data is posted in to BCS, the sub assignments master data is created automatically.
    Now the question is how to get the data in BW for the specific sub assignmnets into BCS.
    Currently I planned to use the [program UCMDSYNC to do this.
    Pls do suggest me if any other option available for me.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Richard

  • SEM-BCS Statistical FS Items (Statistical: Balance and Statistical: Flow)

    Hi,
    SEM-BCS 4.0 and SEM-BCS 6.0 both have 2 types of Statistical FS Item (Financial Statement item); "Statistical: Balance" and "Statistical: Flow".
    I note that these are treated differently, e.g. in Balance Carryforward task, Statistical: Balance are carried forward automatically while Statistical: Flow are not.
    My question is, what is the difference between these statistical item types?
    And what are they (or could they be) used for?

    Hi,
    I'll try to explain you like the following:
    Balance is a value that is derived from beginning balance plus movement. Flow is the movement itself.
    Trial balance is an example of balance, while movement type is an example of flow.
    When you do balance carry forward, system add all the flow type that you define to make a balance, and carry forward the balance only.
    Hope it helps.

  • Concept of Integrated Consolidation Unit of SEM BCS

    HI Experts,
    I'm now in the SEM BCS 4.0 and BW 3.5 implementation. Previously I was the ECCS specialist and before the FI and AM specialist.
    Now I'm in SEM BCS implementation.
    I have one question in connection to the integrated consolidation unit. As the reference, I take the concept of this using the ECCS.
    As you might know, the creation of integrated consolidation unit for using realtime update method in ECCS, is pulled from FI company ID.
    Meanings if I set the configuration properly, I can pull out the company master data as the consolidation unit master data in consolidation monitor.
    Now, in SEM BCS, I want to do the same thing. I mean, off course I can create company ID in R/3 and then create the consolidation unit manually using UCWB. But this scenario can create inconsistency, and I also think this is not the right concept of doing integration between R/3 and SEM BCS.
    My question is : what is the concept of this master data integration, and what is the proper way to do it?
    Any advise on this question is highly appreciated.
    Thank you in advance.
    regards,
    Halim

    Hi Halim,
    You need to build properly your data basis in data model.
    Assign your company to a consolidation unit role:

  • Inconsistent Query Result in SEM-BCS using Virtual Info Provider

    We have just upgraded to BW 7.0 and SEM-BCS 6.0. When we run an existing 3.5 BW query for BCS through the Virtual Info Provider against the basic consolidation cube, we are getting inconsistent results. Sometimes we get the correct result, and other times our results are not rolling up correctly causing an out of balance on our balance sheet query. We did not make any hierarchy changes between the query executions. Has anyone else experienced this? We cannot see the cause of the inconsistency. Everything looks good when running through RSRT DEBUG. Any help on pushing us in the right direction to solve this would be appreciated. 
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Hi Rob,
    Could you please let me know how you have resolved this issue? Thanks.

  • Any landscape recommendations for 2004s BI & SEM-BCS 6.0 ?

    Hi,
    in addition to our ERP 2005 we plan to set up a separate central BI 7.0 for following integrated NW2004s scenarios:
    - Enterprise wide central reporting, query and analysis.
    - BI Integrated Planning (successor of SEM-BPS).
    - SEM-BCS 6.0.
    <u>Question:</u>
    Should the BCS be installed on a separate system, because of patch interdependencies with the central BI?
    If yes, does BCS still need its own local BI, or can it run remotely with the central BI (like the old BW-BPS)?
    Similar sap recommendations exist only for SEM-BPS, which we won't use in favor of BI Integrated Planning.
    I searched the whole sap.marketplace for this, in vain.
    The installations and combination-possibilities are beautifully explained, but no official recommendations about what should all be put on one central BI and what should be better kept apart.
    Rumors say you should keep SEM out of your central BI and give it its own BI, to avoid painful patch/release dependencies.
    What about the "single point of truth"-conecept in one central BI then?
    Thank's for any hints ...
    Robert

    Hi Eugene,
    thanks for your callback. Here an example:
    Say, you need a BI-Patch (urgent bug-fix) or may be a BI-Upgrade to be able to use new functionalities for your Enterprise wide central reporting, query and analysis (since you don't use the BI only for BCS).
    So, you would have to wait, until the same is also available for SEM-BCS, as it it tightly coupled to the BI (e.g. direct writing to transactional cubes, query via virtual cube augmented with data at query-runtime).
    Notes like 727776 and 317339 just make me suspicious.
    A similar SAP Help-hint is only available for BW-BPS (but we will use BI integrated Planning)
    http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_02/helpdata/en/44/584041b02e4c0de10000000a1550b0/content.htm
    Since more and more SAP-Applications need a BI, i am desperately missing a comprehensive overview, which of them should not be placed in the same BI for technical reasons (e.g. one sap-note says Bank-Analyzer and SEM-BCS should not be on the same BI).
    Regards

  • SEM BCS in SAP ERP 6.0

    Hi Experts
    have you worked with ERP 6.0 and SEM BCS into the ERP?
    in ERP 6.0 all SEM components like BCS, BPS, CPM are in the same system as "add on" or I dont Know, is posible to work with this componentes from ERP?
    I think is necessary install SEM BW and plug ins, I will apreciate your comments about this..
    Thanks in advance

    I realize that this is a BCS SEM forum and I do believe that OLAP is a better technology than OLTP for consolidation functionality, but there are "equivalent" BCS transactions in ECC as well. UCMON is "roughly" CX20. The consolidation menu is CX00(N) and customization is CX01(N). Both have been visible directly after entering  "/n" in OK Code input field.

  • Diference between R/3 ECCS & SEM BCS

    <b>Hi all,
    We ve to compare the two systems R/3-ECCS and SEM-BCS in detail as we are goin for consolidation using SAP. Could you people suggest something regardin this.
    It will be very nice if you could suggest some parameters based on which these to be compared.</b>

    The main difference is that you don't have to pay additional licence fees for R/3 EC-CS, because it is part of R/3. As long as you didn't buy mySAP ERP or the mySAP Business Suite you would have to buy an additional SEM license to use SEM BCS.
    As far as I know, R/3 EC-CS offers all necessary functionality for consolidation and is a sophisticated product.
    But in the end, SEM BCS will be the path to the future, even if the implementation might be not so easy today.

  • SEM-BCS  vs Hyperion

    My client is unable to take a decision on software selection between Hyperion and SEM BCS - 4.0 for consolidations. The company is already implemented SAP -4.6c and wants to go for consolidation implementation. Hence, client is in dilemma for choosing software. Can anybody face the situation where SEM-BCS is superior than Hyperion software. if so, Please forward me the presentation/ comparison to support the SEM-BCS implementation.
    thanks

    Hello
    SEM BCS and ECCS both are consolidation applications of SAP System.
    ECCS is based on R/3 where as SEM BCS is based on BW. 
    There are no special circumstances, however SEM BCS is the latest version. Moreover the recent direction of SAP is towards BPC u2013
    Business Planning & Consolidation.
    Hope this helps.

  • Difference SEM-BCS and BO PLanning & Consolidation

    Hi all,
    as announced in the subject. I was wondering what the difference between SEM-BCS and BO Planning & Consolidation is(so referring to the consolidation part)?
    Is BO Planning & Consolidation = BO Planning + SEM BCS
    Looking forward to your ideas!
    Best regards
    Hagen

    Hi Collet,
    Sorry I have no time to make a full-fledged comparison SEM-BCS and SAP BPC as you asked.
    Regarding your last link: very interesting information. Thank you very much.
    The citation from the article:
    Known Limitations
    In SAP BusinessObjects Planning and Consolidation (BPC), organizations (i.e. entities and groups/consolidation scopes) car vary according to Category and Time. However, all the other dimensions are static, which means they have neither category nor time dependency. As a result, the model presented here will use static Profit Center and Intercompany Profit Center dimensions.
    Eliminations (so called Automatic Adjustments in BPC) are primarily driven by Legal Entity and Intercompany dimensions. As a result, when it comes to Matrix Consolidation, each elimination will still occur based on this fact. So, basically, an elimination is triggered if both an Entity and the Intercompany entity are being consolidated under the same node (i.e. Group or Consolidation scope). In other words, BPC does not evaluate as such the Profit Center and Intercompany Profit Center dimensions when it comes to performing eliminations. Amounts will be eliminated based on the Legal Entity view. However, it is possible to analyze and group eliminations by Profit Center later on. As a result, Matrix consolidation will heavily leverage the reporting/filtering capabilities of the product.
    I'm afraid that in SEM-BCS' sense the Matrix consolidation has much more deep meaning than that presented here.

  • Differences between SEM BCS and SAP BPC

    Hello All,
    Can you please let me know the differences between SEM BCS and SAP BPC. What I know is SEM BCS is an SAP product for Financial Consolidation (Legal and Management). SAP BPC is the new product taken over from Outlooksoft. It also features the consolidationa and planning functionalities. Can you please suggest which is a better product.
    Regards
    Vikram

    There is nothing like better or worse product.
    BCS has some strong features like consolidation monitor, investment consolidation and for most consolidation functions, configuration is very easy. In BPC, you may have to write scripts.
    BCS has BW as the backbone  where for BPC 5.1 there is none. Howveer, in  BPC 7.0, the BPC will rest on BI and things will be much better.

  • Remote Extractor and Real Time Infocube for SEM BCS

    Hi Experts,
    I have somes doubts about the integration between SEM and BW.
    There is a cycle that have the next processes:
    1.- begin in R/3 with the movements in FI, CO and/or general ledgers
    2.- Activate the extractors standards for replicate/extract data to BW. For example, 0FI_GL_XXXX.
    3.- Configure a method for take the information from BW to SEM.
    4.- My doubt begin here... For take the information from SEM to the real time infocube, where I configure?  What Have I for configure?
    The real time infocube, What is the proposal? Where take the data?  Here, Do the remote extractor begin to apply?
    Thank you very much for your collaboration.
    Regards,
    Jeysi Ascanio

    We're using 0FI_GL_20 to read directly from FAGLFLEXT into SEM-BCS via a BI remote cube.  There are some basic transformations in BI to "populate" the remote cube, then a standard Load from Data Stream in BCS to do final mappings.  In the BCS workbench, just create a source data basis off the remote cube.
    This works at my current project due to fairly low ECC data volumes.  If you are doing any complex mapping on the Company or Fiscal Year / Period infoobjects, you may need to create a inverse mapping routine in the remote cube to transfer selection criteria.  If you see messages in the monitor following a data load such as "xx,xxx of xxx,xxx records ignored", that means that you are reading too much data from ECC and it is only getting filtered on the BCS side.  We had this problem with a custom extractor and adding an inverse mapping routine cut the load from ~5min to 30sec.  (Basically, the custom, template-delivered, extractor only had 0FISCPER, not 0FISCPER3 and 0FISCYEAR, so we would read all 17 K4 periods into BI, map them into BCS, then BCS would throw out the unneeded periods.  Unfortunately, we did not have the option to change the extractor, so this was the best approach.).
    If I had large data volumes, I would use a regular BI basic cube for staging (or possibly a multi-cube with a mix of basic and realtime, depending on the load requirements to BCS).
    If you use 0FI_GL_20, I would strongly recommend you implement OSS Note 1245822, or be on SAP_APPL 603.0002 or later.
    Hope that helps,
    - Chris

  • SEM-BCS - SAP Netweaver BI 7.0 and SEM-BW 600 -add on install issue

    Dear BCS Consultants:
    My client has installed NWeaver BI 7.0 and SEM BW 600 - add-on.
    However, when I tried to access BCS, it says 'lock table overflow'.
    Am I supposed to configure something before I access BCS or it is a Basis issue?
    Is there any other support package to be installed?
    Please guide me.
    Thanks ins advance.
    SAI2

    Yes..This is a Basis Issue. I got the same error and the Basis resolved it.
    Btw...Did you guys install SEM 6.0 on top of BI 7.0 right ?
    Please confirm as my client basis is in confusion on this..
    Thanks in advance,
