BW master data infoprovider authorization question

Hi,we have a user getting the below error when trying to run a new query in production. The query uses new master data infoproviders which we added to the appropriate role in Prod. Any suggestions as to any other authorizations that we need to grant?
Thanks for your help
No Authorization (Or Everything Has Been Filtered Out)

Hi
Ussually when new MD or IP are added there also Auth objects that are needed to be added to the role.
best way is to trace the query and it will point to the missing objects.
To trace -> ST01
and then login with a test user with the exact same role and run the query, also make sure the test is done with the same ver of Bex.

Loading to Master Data InfoProvider

I have scheduled a load to a Master Data InfoProvider. The processing is PSA and then subsequently to Data Target. The Load shows as successful and their are update rules created to the Master Data InfoProvider. PSA shows data but when I look at the Data for the Master Data InfoProvider there are no values. Any thoughts thanks

Hi Niten,
Goto the transfer structure and check the Conversion "check box" against the infoobject ZSODCONF. Activate the transfer rules and move the data from the PSA again. Hopefully it would work.
Bye

Invoking HR Master Data (P_ORGIN) authorization check for transaction PCP0

Hello,
We have to limit access to executives (managers) sensitive posting data in transaction PCP0 (display posting runs).
Since executives belong to a personnel area other than all other employees, I thought we can achieve this by personnel area distinction.
In order to have this done, P_ORGIN authorization check should be performed.
It looks that by standard, such check is not performed.
Does anyone have any experience of dealing with this issue?
Thanks,
Isaac

Hi,
I have a vague idea.
I remember while creating an ESS user, we did something in P_ORGIN so as to to restrict access to personnel master data.
Check the composite role : SAP_EMPLOYEE_ERP.
A Z role was created for SAP_EMPLOYEE_ERP=>the corresponding roles in it had to be copied to a z role.
Check the z-role created ; zSAP_ESSUSER_ERP.
In Authorizations tab=>Display authorization data option => ;
Expand Human Resources;
In HR : Master data, you can find the various authorization assignments to P_ORIGIN; where
Authorization level (AUTHC)
Infotype (INFTY)
Personnel Area (PERSA)
Employee Group (PERSG)
Employee Subgroup (PERSK)
Subtype (SUBTY)
Organizational Key (VDSK1)
Authorization level (AUTHC) takes the values :
R (Read) for read access
M (Matchcode) for read access to input helps (F4)
W (Write) for write access
E and D (Enqueue and Dequeue) for write access using the Asymmetrical Double Verification Principle. E allows the user to create and change locked data records and D allows the user to change lock indicators.
S (Symmetric) for write access using the Symmetric Double Verification Principle
* always includes all other authorization levels simultaneously
In your case if some has to make changes through PPCO.. it's equivalent to making changes to infotype 0001 (Organizational Assignment)
So, probably, you need the Authorization level to R for Infotype 0001.
I have no personal hands-on experience on this...since we are not allowed to anything Basis
I have seen this being done and have noted what was done... !! May or may not be correct....!!
I hope this is what you want.
Cheers and Good Luck!!

DSO as a time dependent Master Data infoprovider

Hi All
I am looking for a "How To" document on how to use a DSO as a time dependent MD provider.
I want to load a non time dependent Master Data from a non SAP source and update the DSO daily.
When ever an attribute is changing, I want to update the last status "To Date" from 31.12.9999 to today.
Hope I am clear on this one.
I don't want to use regular master data capabilities...
Thanks, Dror

Jurgen is right...
For an after image based extractor containing the latest view of the world - you basically can do this
DSO 1
Customer - Key
Sales Persion
Date to
Date From
last_date = 31.12.9999 (constant)
load date = sy-datum
First load:
customer A, Sales Person X, To Date = 31.12.9999 , from date = 12.03.2010
Second load a week later
customer A, Sales Person Y, To Date = 31.12.9999 , from date = 19.03.2010
Change log generated is
customer A, Sales Person X, To Date = 31.12.9999 , from date = 12.03.2010 record mode before image
customer A, Sales Person Y, To Date = 31.12.9999 , from date = 19.03.2010 record mode after image
What you can do now is feed master data timedependant object or another dso.
If it is another DSO then the structure is this
DSO 2
Customer - Key
Date from - Key
Sales Persion
Date to
You need the date_from as part of the key because you are going to use the overwrite facility to play with the data depending on the record mode of the changelog entries
but in the start routine make sure the semantic keys are correct so you get both images in the same packet
Then use field symbols to load the data package in to sort and then find the opposing after image and before image then
if record mode = before image
To date = from date from after image MIINUS 1 day
endif
Then the data going out of the start routine is this
customer A, Sales Person X, To Date = 18.03.2010 , from date = 12.03.2010 record mode before image
customer A, Sales Person Y, To Date = 31.12.9999 , from date = 19.03.2010 record mode after image
And the records stored will be this
After initial load
customer A, Sales Person X, To Date = 31.12.9999 , from date = 12.03.2010
After next weeks load
customer A, Sales Person X, To Date = 18.03.2010 , from date = 12.03.2010
customer A, Sales Person Y, To Date = 31.12.9999 , from date = 19.03.2010
Or something like that - but you get the idea.. and yes I have done it before

Putting a Master Data InfoProvider in an ODS to create a query

I have another problem now which is that the queries brings back the result set but in the ODS I have included an InfoObject as a Data Fields. This InfoObject has attributes but it does not show these attribute values. I have also included the attribute in the Data Field. The ODS is not being updated with the Attribute but the InfoObject which is also an InfoProvider is being populated with the attribute value. It is not shown in the query thanks?

Hi Niten,
In your query you should be able to find this attribute under the chars on the left hand side. Alternatively in your report you can goto Local change mode and look at the attributes by right clicking your char. Is this attribute navigational or just display?
Hope this helps...

Parallel load of InfoProvider master Data

Hi, I have a Master Data object configured as an infoprovider. I am trying to load the object from 2 different sources in parallel in my process chain. This seemed to work in my dev environement, but one of the loads is failing because of master data lock.
There are no duplicate characteristics between the 2 sources so no conflicts exist there. Is it just that I cannot load 2 sources into the master data infoprovider at the same time?
ThankS!

Hi Kenneth,
On the following (parallel) processes lock situations can occur:
- Hierarchy and attribute change runs is locking temporarily parts of a BW system
- Loading master data for the same InfoObject (risk when loading in parallel master data out of several source systems)
( Can be avoided (if wanted) by applying note 421419)
- Rolling up data of the same InfoCube
- Selective deletion on InfoCube and parallel loading
- Activation or deletion of ODS object data and loading it
Best regards,
Eugene

A question on DataSource for Master Data example 0plant,0customer etc...,

For transaction data, transaction LBWE is there,similarly is there something like this for master data.

Master data without change run

Hello Gurus,
our data flow for sap bw is " sap datasource>PSA>infoprovider for some infoobject-->OHS ", our purpose is to extract data from sap datasource and send it to external data warehouse through OHS. but I found for some infoobject, after loaded with data, without change run, then directly transfer to external data warehouse through OHS. I know master data is not activated without change run. but does it make sense for my scenario without change run before sending data out?
Many thanks

Hi,
You don't have to include attribute change run after every master Data load. This has to done only when ever you do some changes to master Data viz. adding attributes or deleting attributes and so on.
Check with the business if the master dta is changing on frequent basis.
Check below links:

Create custom transaction on the base of RSDMD to populate bw master data

Hello All,
my client is asking me if there is a possibility to create a custom transaction on the base of standard transaction RSDMD to populate the master data manually allowing the users to see only selected master data.
we have a SAP BW and APO on the same system.
the client ask if we can have a control level if the master data call other infoobjects for example (hierarchy market call the infoobjects LEV1, LEV2 etc) we can do in a manner that is not possibile to insert new valus but only to combine existed values?
Thanks for All
Bilal

Make all master data infoobjects authorization relevant and custom profile accordingly to the users in the standard authorizations and analysis authorizations.
This will enable users to see only certain master data in their queries ( analysis authorizations ) and in their data display ( standard authorizations) instead of custom transaction.

Add Attrib to Master data

Hi,
I have to add a new attrib to the Master data object, the question is:
- will the Aggr have any effect without data or with data
- if this Attrib is not needed in the Aggr, do i still need to rebuild those Aggr
Thanks

adding an attribute will not affect aggr
also if u do not need this new attribute in the aggr, no need to rebuild it

Editable Analysis Grid: Handling of New Master Data

Hi folks,
I've an analysis grid that is editable using a BEx WebTemplate in SAP BW Integrated Planning environment. The table contains a characteristic, that has to be qualified before a user can save the data entry. The problem is, that the values, the user can choose for this characteristic, have already to be maintained as master data. My question is, if there is a way to avoid this behavior. A user should entry any value for this characteristic and after he has saved the whole entry, the master data table should be extended with the new values.
Anyone here with helpful hints for me?

Hi,
In BW IP, using characteristic relationship you can restrict the user from entering invalid characteristic values.
But your specific requirement can achieved by any one of the following solutions,
1. You can create a characteristic relationship of type "Exit" and you can write the necessary ABAP code to include your new user added characteristic value in to the master data table of that particular characteristic. Kindly refer the below link for more details,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/43/1c3d0f31b70701e10000000a422035/frameset.htm
You can use the class, 'CL_RSPLS_CR_EXIT_BASE' and then you have to implement the methods u2018CHECKu2019, u2018DERIVEu2019 and u2018CREATEu2019. Among these methods, in the 'DERIVE' method you can write the code to add the characteristic values in to master data table.
2. You can convince the user to add the new characteristic values in to the master data table by developing a ABAP report. You can ask the user to enter the values and then execute your report.
Hope this solves your issue.

Balajee

Master data query display limited to 10000 records

Hi,
When I run a query based on master data objects like 0CUSTOMER, the query displays only 10000 records instead of about 50000. This happens with all other master data items. This happens after the upgrade to 2004S. We still use frontend 3.5. Transaction data displays are correct. Has anybody faced this problem? Can someone suggest the solution for this?
Thanks.
Param

Hi
Check out note -
<b>955487</b>- Master data InfoProvider reads only 10000 records
Implement the advanced corrections as SP-09 is too far to be released.
Hope it Helps.

Master data reading does not work

Hello,
Having as a source for a transformation an infosource, masterdata reading (i.e. enhance master data with attributes) produces less data records than a simple transformation without reading master data attributes.
Question: Is the reason for this behavior, that an infosource is no info-object based data provider as is written in the RKT docu?
Thank you + regards,
Ingo

Hi Ingo,
please open an customer problem message, since this seems to be a bug. It might be that it happens only in certain scenarios. Nevertheless it should be investigated by development.
Cheers

What is the use of master data listed in infoprovider?

Dera sirs,
I noticed that some master data is listed in infoprovider. If someone can explain me in which cases this master data listed in infoprovider is used for report.
sorry to post this question but I don't find the response in this forum.
Thanks in advance for you help.

Hi Santo,
Welcome to the SAP world.
Take your thread data/question data of SDN for example
Master dara here is: User ID ( your user id ) Name, Country etc which can not be changed
Transaction data here is: Number of Views on this thread by other users ( daily increases)
Points given by you etc.
With the help of master data we can easily find out who is this user of this question and his contact details etc.
Post as many threads as you can your master details will not be changed in the SAP SDN.
Thanks,
Ram.

Basic question on Master data reporting on ODS

Hello All,
Recently I had a requirement, where they need to see the master data report ( with its attributes and attributes of attributes (transitive attribute)). Hence I loaded the master data on a ODS, to turn on the Navigational attributes.........
For e.g.: Requirement:
Master data : 0EQUIPMENT
ATTRIBUTE: 0SHIP_TO
ATTRIBUTE of ATTRIBUTE: 0SHIP_TO_REGION
Question: The report is working fine...... but I have a doubt whether the report (built on the ODS with no Key figures) will populate the master data for which there is no Key figures are maintained in ECC???
Please let me know your ideas and views.......

Hi........
I think it will be better if u use Infoobject to store master data......here also u can turn attributes to Navigational attribute....u can activate that infoobject as dataprovider and do the Reporting as you do it now for the ods object. .........The master data approach will additionally give you the possibility to add navigational attributes to fulfil more reporting requirements..........In RSA1.............Infoprovider >> Right click >> Insert that Infoobject as Infoprovider............

Debjani.......
