Changing Infoobjects Short and Long description on mass level

Hi,
We are trying to change the descriptions for infoobjects on mass level. We dont want to change the same in dev system and transport since its not feasible to check the consistency of the objects.
Kindly let us know if there is any other alternative for the same.
Thanks,
gaurav

Hi Siggi,
We tried changing the description using this function module and it worked in our DEV system. The concern here is when we check the attribute for this SAP standard function module it shows status "Not Released"  under General Data tab.
Can we follow this appraoch as we could not find any other impacts since it changes only the text part of infoobject.
Thanks for the inputs!!
Regards,
Gaurav

  • Short and long texts

    Dear Experts,
    I have many BW objects (like Infocubes, Infoobject catalogues, Infoobjects) for which no short and long texts are maintained in one language. Now, all these are in use in the production system. I have to edit the short and long texts for all of these objects. My intention on how to do it is to,
    1) Logon to the Development system
    2) Edit short texts manually for all of the objects.
    3) Collect the changed objects in Transport organiser and transport to the productive system.
    My only question is does we need to do any thing in the production system after transporting these objects for them to get reflected.
    Any help and other thoughts are greatly appreciated...
    Kind Regards,
    Shravan

    Transport Changes and that's all ...
    Hope it helps

  • Multi Language Description and Long description update.

    Hi Guru,
    I would like to know the possible ways to upload the description and long description in multiple languages for the existing items in mass.  For newly created items, we can enter the data in language form tied to the description.
    Is it possible to do with APC WebADI.?  or any other suggestion would be highly appreciable.

    I solved the problem by myself. It's a customizing with OBVU.
    Hope it can help others.

  • Display Key and Long Description

    Is there any way to display the Key and Long Description for a hierarcy in a query? It looks like the only option is to display Key and short description or Long Description only.
    Thanks,
    Ron

    Hi
    These are the basic steps:
    1. upgrade to BW 3.5
    2. choose to display as key and text
    3. choose key + long text
    the following links says the step by step procedure to do it:

  • Short, medium and long descriptions in BPC

    Hi all,
    I must have 3 types of descriptions in BPC members, short, medium and long.
    The only way to achieve this is using properties for two of them, or is there any other option?
    Many thanks in advance,
    JA

    Hello Ja,
    "The only way to achieve this is using properties for two of them, or is there any other option?"
    I don't understand what this mean... ?
    any how, If you are taking about master data loading from BW, then we have an option to choose description whether it is short, medium, long..
    while running the DM package in the set selection go to language tab. for reference see the below image...

  • Need table with Variant ID and Long Description

    Hello,
    I have a list of ZPAK_* infopackages that I want to translate to their Long Description names. I can search by the Variant ID in RSA1 and find the name but this is a long process and I have over 100 infopackages.
    Does anyone know of a table that has both of these fields?
    Thank you

    Thank you
    You saved me an afternoon of mindless cutting and pasting

  • Changing hosts, artwork and podcast description.

    I currently have a podcast on iTunes that was until recently hosted using Audio Acrobat. I've discontinued that podcast and will be starting a new podcast using Blog Talk Radio (BTR) as my new host.
    The new podcast on BTR will be different in brand and scope than the old/existing podcast. What I want to do is change the artwork, description, delete the old shows (that seems easy enough) and yet keep the existing iTunes feed.
    Is it as easy as entering the existing iTunes feed that I have into the spot where BTR asks for it, or do I need to submit a new RSS URL to iTunes and start over with a new feed. The BTR people were not able to help on this.
    Also, just how does a person update the podcast info if they're not going to this extreme? Does it automatically update if you change it on the host page at BTR, or wherever one might host?
    Thanks!
    Dave

    iTunes takes all the information from the feed. If you keep the feed at the same URL, change the title and all the episodes, then after a day or two the changes will be reflected in the Store (just as episodes can be added and others removed without having to resubmit, you just change the feed).
    If you wanted to move the feed to a different server while keeping the podcast the same, there is a definite procedure for this:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/whatson/podcasts/specs.html#changing
    Note that this entails leaving the old feed in place until the change has been registered.
    If you want to change the name and scope of the podcast, and change the feed URL, then frankly you will find it easier to start over from scratch and submit the new feed as a new Podcast.

  • Reclassification of short and long term payables and receivables in ECCS

    Hello,
    Has anyone worked with reclassifying long and short term receivables and payables in consolidation? Or anyway of using the FI automatic reclassification for closings and be able to consolidate and make eliminations in any of the consolidation tools (ECCS or SEM BCS) between company codes already in SAP and companies outside SAP.

    Hi,
    Right. After the registry key is added, all new recovery points written to tape will show they expire at midnight (12:00am) on they day they expire so any tape jobs that run later that day will be able to use that tape after the expiry
    date.
    To prevent tape jobs from failing because there are no tapes available, you can also add this registry value.
    During a new tape backup or if a tape becomes full and there are no other tapes marked free, Free (contains data) or expired in the library, DPM will raise an alert to prompt for another free tape to continue backup.  The same is true during a
    restore, if the needed tape is not in the library an alert will be raised.  By Default, DPM It will wait for
    1 hour before failing the job.
    This prompting timeout can be configured by the registry entry “PromptingTimeOut” under “HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\1.0\Prompting”
    PromptingTimeOut:REG_Dword:43200000  (dec) = 12hrs
    The Formula is   (#hrs * 1000 * 60 * 60)
    1HR =  1*1000*60*60 =  3600000  decimal
    So for each hour to wait, multiply by 3600000.
    8hrs = 28800000  decimal
    Restart the DPMRA service.

  • DPM 2010 Short and Long Term goals

    My question is related to size restrictions.
    Our existing DPM 2010 is setup with two protections groups, System State, and a Default (file) protection group. Both are set up the same. A co worker recently had to re-create a protection group due to his negligence and deleted it without looking at how
    it was setup in the first place, since then I've been having errors in backing up to tape:
    Synchronization frequency is set to just before recovery point
    Short term goals are:
    Recovery points are at 8:00 AM, 12:00PM, 6:00PM Everyday, Express Full is 8:00PM Everyday
    Long term goals are:
    Retention range 2 weeks, Frequency Weekly (1 recovery point every 1 week for the last 2 weeks)
    Full backups are set to Saturday at 11:00 PM
    Here's the thing, we have 3x3TB external drives that, historically have been swapped out weekly (Monday mornings, using Firestreamer for tape emulation). Since the co-worker broke, and re-created the protection groups, when we view DPM Console on Monday
    morning, we see that the backup jobs are failing, the 3TB drive is full. 
    Could this 3TB drive be full due to this weekly swapping out when it is set to a retention range of 2 weeks? Obviously, it could be because the protection group actually contains that much data, but I'm trying to wrap my head around sync frequency, recovery
    points and how that works into recovery goals. 
    Any help is appreciated.

  • HDD short and long test Freezes at 50%

    The laptop kept crashing and new install of Windows 7 and then Windows 8 did not fix the issue. The 'run in' test passed the ram section, but froze at 55% of the HHD test. The longer HDD test also froze at 55%. I'm assuming that there is a serious problem in the mid disk space. I'm probably going to shrink the C: disk to  maybe 25-30% will this avoid the area at 55%?  It's not really justified, on cost grounds, to fit a new or even used disk in this system as there are cheap new more powerful systems around.  However,  a working allbeit small hard disk system, would be fine for my usage.

    According to the message you have recently posted I would like to confirm that this could be a hardware issue and it looks like the sectors on the Hard Drive are being damaged. I strongly recommend you to immediately back up your data before the Hard Drive stops working completely. I recommend you to Contact HP Technical Support over the Phone for further assistance without any delay to get your Notebook diagnosed and serviced by an authorized HP Certified Engineer You can also Check your warranty Here to verify the warranty status  Hope this helps, for any further queries reply to the post and feel free to join us again  **Click the White Thumbs Up Button on the right to say Thanks**Make it easier for other people to find solutions by marking a Reply 'Accept as Solution' if it solves your problem. Thank You,K N R KAlthough I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP
