Can't get master data text and attributes

Hi,
I have a BEx query report which is reading data from a virtual infocube in BI7.0 environment. In this query report I need to display the company code and also its long text and 3 of the company code master data's attributes.
My company code master data has been loaded and its data activated. However when I ran this BEx query report, I could not see the long text and 3 of the company code master data's attributes.
I know this is not a problem for a basic infocube but will this query report able to do the same when reading data straight from a virtual infocube?
Please let me know.

Hi
I had tried all sorts - attribute change run and manually activating the master data. Still doesnt work.

Master Data Text and Attributes

Guys,
I read some posts on sdn regarding differences between master data texts and attributes and now I am a little confused. I thought attributes define a char. then what does text do? Does it not define or describe the char as well? If both are doing the same thing then why do we need both ? I am not sure if my understanding is correct. Please help me.
Thanks,
RG

Hi Ram,
To understand in a better way little bit of R/3 work would have been helpful.
In R/3 Every entity has master data maintained like customer, material, plant etc.
If you would see a customer in R/3 you can see it has lots of information..like address,telephone number,street company name, etc.
And along with it we have customer name...i.e. description..(text)
Now in R/3...text tables are generally maintained separately then master data tables...it can be together as well.
Something like for you Ram Goswami is descrption(text) for the user ID XXXXXXX in SDN.
Email ID and company name is the master data stored here for him.
BW has used the same modelling concept to keep the text table separate from the msater data table.
It creates to separate data target for master data and text so that two seperate tables can be maintained in BW and you have to load the data in both to see the master as well as text.
Since we have separate master data table and text table in R/3 therefore we have separate data sources as well based on them.
You would like to have you master data table exactly as the master data table of R/3 so you will add attributes in the infoobject 0customer and it will create a P table for 0customer...keep adding attributes to make the columns in the table and to make the exact copy of R/3 table i.e. to bring all the information from R/3 about customer master you add attributes in the 0customer.The data soiurce based on this table in R/3 will contain the fields from the table.
Now you do the mappings with fields between infoobject and data source and load the data ...so master data is loaded.
For text...once you check the text option in infoobject..SAP creates a new table Tcustomer in the background..
Now you have to do the mappings for this as well through the data source based on the text table in R/3.
In some cases the master data table contains text as well and in that case you use the same data source based on this table to create two separate update rules one for master data object and another one for text object and do the mappings accordingly.
In this case you schedule the load to both the target at the same time and data gets loaded.
but for different data sources you will have to schedule the load separately.
Once data loaded for this...now you can use it in the report and see the text as well as master data attributes in the reports and there values.
I hope that was more then enough
Thanks

Master data text and ods

can i load the master data text and ods parallely?

Hi Abby,
If your ODS contains a characteristic value of an infoobject and you want to load master data (texts and attributes) of this IO, you'd better load master data first (not in parallel), then transaction data.
You can do it in a process chain.
Such a sequence will prevent the possible ODS activation failure.
Best regards,
Eugene

Abt master data activation and attribute change run

There is any difference between master data activation and attribute change run

Hi,
Master data activation is activating the master data once you extract the data from source system the data will be in inactive state, so in order to make the data available we will activate the master data.
Attribute change run :Its used to update the newly changed master data records to the Hierachies and aggregates.
If you are already using the available master data in aggregates in InfoCubes, you cannot activate the master data individually. In this case we will use attribute change run.
For attribute change run we have direct tcode: RSATTR or In the main menu, choose the path Tools Hierarchy/Attribute Change.

Master data maintenance and attributes for GTIN/EAN

A review of the SAP documentation indicates that "You can use the consistency report to change the attributes (for example, quantity, length, height, and so on) of certain materials". The "and so on" seems to imply that the attributes can be user defined. If this correct, where is this data kept? Or do the attributes only include the fields from the Basic data 1 Dimensions/EAN data and Plant Data storage General data?
I would expect we can use LSWM to mass update the GTIN for our existing material numbers. However, for new material master creation is there a function module that would be able to pull the next available GTIN number from the internal number range? Please note that we use LSWM to create all our material numbers. We would like to have the LSWM insert the next available GTIN number.
Thank you for your response

Extract InfoObject data, Text and attributes

Hi guys,
I have a need to extract InfoObjects data for 3rd-party use
I mean the whole snow flakes schema including the 'P' table and all accompanied 'T' tables,
I can do it with database view through SE11, but it is a lot of "dirty" job.
I also know that I can export infoobect data through openhub but it gives me either text or attributes only, I cannot combine them.
Does anyone have an idea on how to accomplish that?
Regards
Shlomi

Hi Sven and Vikram
As I wrote in my first post,
I know that I can create a view in SE11 but my problem was that it is a long process as I have over 30 tables and that's only to 1 Infoobject, I will need to do the same to many Infoobjects.
I was looking for a faster way.
Maybe there is already database view that is created automatically or there is another way without having to analyze all tables and join them manually.
Regards
Shlomi

How can i get Master Data Server?

Just follow the link as mentioned below:
https://websmp207.sap-ag.de/swdc
then click on Download>Support Packages and Patches>Entry by Application Group>SAP NetWeaver> SAP MDM>SAP MDM 5.5>Master Data Server
i cant find it!
then the correct link is:
Download>Support Packages and Patches>Entry by Application Group-->SAP NetWeaver.....
who can tell me the link of mdm for netweaver 2004s for java ?
thank you!

hi ketan,
you tell me the path that cant be found at marketplace.
it has been changed ,i think.
now,the correct path as below:
Installations and Upgrades> SAP NetWeaver>SAP NETWEAVER-->SAP NETWEAVER 7.0
and ,i find
"SAP Master Data Management (MDM) is a component of SAP NetWeaver and has to be ordered separately and will be licensed separately. SAP Solution Manager is a component of SAP NetWeaver and available to all customers worldwide via the official ordering channels."
can you tell me the relation of MDM and SAP Solution Manager??
thank you!

HT5824 I've lost my iphone, it has iCloud back up, how can I get the data restored and on to my laptop without a new iphone

I've lost my iPhone and have not got the finances to buy a new one, investigating insurance options but only 6 months left on contract so may not bother, however I want to get all my info off iCloud but can't work out how to get it, I'm not very computer savvy to be honest.

You can only restore the backup to another iOS device. Also, Apple will delete an iCloud backup after 180 days of inactivity so it won't be there forever.

Open hub destination of text and attribute for Functional Area

Hi Expert
I have a requirement to accommodate both attribute ( 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR) and text ( 0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT ) for functional area in open hub destination .For this a DSO has been created from both 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR, 0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT data sources .Problem is that DSO has 0FUNCT_AREA ( Functional Area ) as only key fields . So text for both english ( EN ) and Dutch ( NL) for particular 0FUNCT_AREA not getting loaded .If we assign both 0LANGU and 0FUNCT_AREA as composite key of dso , data from attribute transformation is loaded as blank as there is no language filed in attribute data source ( 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR ). Please let me know how can I design to accommodate both text for different language and functional area for open hub destination .
I know that I can create separate open hub destination for master data TEXT and Attribute.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards
Saikat

HI Saikat,
You can create an additional characteristics counter and make it a key field in the DSO.After that we can populate this characteristics in the end routine .It value would increase by 1 everytime different text comes for the same functional area.
Sample code
data: counter type n,
w_farea type /bio/oifunc_area.
Sort result_package by func_area.
count =0.
*checking whether we have the same functional area or we have a different functional area.
Loop at result_package assigning <Result_fields>.
if w_farea is initial or w_farea = <result_fields>-func_area.
count = count +1.
else
count =1.
endif.
w_farea= <result_fields>-func_area.
<Result_fields>-zcount = count.
ENDLOOP.
Clear w_farea.
This way the value of counter would get increased by one everytime a new text comes for the same functional area.We can have any number of texts for the same functional area by this method.
The only issue would be when some delta update comes for the existing text in this method.If you are doing a full load to the DSO from the datasource, then there would be no issue with this method.

My battery died and then when i charged the phone it is asking me to connect to itunes and restore. if i restore how can i get my data back

My iphone battery died and on charging the phone it asked me to connect to itunes and restore the phone.
If i restore the phone how can i get my data back and how can i check when i last backed up my phone

If you have been syncing regularly as the iphone is designed, then you can sync the data back.
Regardless you will have to restore the iphone.

Master data loads for Attributes and texts failing

Hello
Master data loads for Attributs and texts are failing. The error is
1. Lock Not set for Loading master data attributes
2.Table /BI0/YAccount does not exists (this error is for 0Account master data - attribute load)
3.Error 1 in the update.
We had faced this error few days ago and rebooting the server resolved the error but it has recurred after 4 days.
RS12 and SM12 do not show any locks. Activating the info object has also not resolved the error.
Any insight is appreciated.
Thanks

SID table in the general tab and master data/text tab

Hello Bi Experts,
For example 0material Info-object:
There is a SID table in the general tab i.e /BI0/SCOMP_CODE
There is another SID table Attribute in the master data/text tab i.e /BI0/XCOMP_CODE,here there are Nav attributes with name S__0COMPANY.
When i got 0company info-object it got its own SID table i.e /BI0/SCOMPANY
Can some body explain me what is significance of SID table Attribute in the master data/text tab and what is difference with SID Table of attribute?
Cheers,
Stalin

Hi,
SID is surrogate ID generated by the system. The SID tables are created when we create a master data IO. In SAP BW star schema, the distinction is made between two self contained areas: Infocube & master data tables/SID tables.
The master data doesn't reside in the satr schema but resides in separate tables which are shared across all the star schemas in SAP BW. A numer ID is generated which connects the dimension tables of the infocube to that of the master data tables.
The dimension tables contain the dim ID and SID of a particular IO. Using this SID the attributes and texts of an master data Io is accessed.
The SID table is connected to the associated master data tables via teh char key
Sid Tables are like pointers in C
Tables Starting with Description:
M - View of master data table
Q - Time Dependent master data table
H - Hierarchy table
K - Hierarchy SID table
I - SID Hierarchy structure
J - Hierarchy interval table
S - SID table
Y - Time Dependent SID table
T - Text Table
F - Fact Table - Direct data for cube ( B-Tree Index )
E - Fact Table - Compress cube ( Bitmap Index )

Can routine replace "master data attribute of" update rule for performance?

Hi all,
We are working on CRM-BW data modeling, We have to look up agent master data for agent level and position for each transaction data. So now we are using "Master data attribute of" update rule. Can we use routine instead of "Master data Attribute of" ? Will it improve the loading performance? Since we have to load 1 lack transaction records , where as we have 20,000 agent details in agent master data.My understanding is, for each record in data package the system has to go to master data table and bring the agent details & store in cubes. Say one agent created 10 transactions, then this option "master data attribute of" will read the agent master data 10 times even though we are going to pull same details for all 10 transactions from master data. if we use routine, we can pull the agent details& storing in internal table removing all duplicates and in update routine we can read the internal table.
Will this way improve performance?
let me know if you need further info?
Thanks in advance.
Arun Thangaraj

Hi,
your thinking is absolutely right!
I don't recommend to use the standard attribute derivation since it will perform a SELECT to the database for EACH record.
Better implement a sorted table in your start routine; fill it with SELECT <fields> FROM <master_data_table> FOR ALL ENTRIES OF datapak WHERE OBJVERS = 'A' etc...
In your routine perform a READ itab ... BINARY SEARCH.... I believe that you won't be able to go faster...
hope this helps...
