Character " within record AND as escape sign for FF master data

I have a flat file for attributes for master data. A field for address contains the character ( " ) This is also the escape character for the CSV file. In BI 7, when loading into the PSA, the load aborts because it is trying to split the file in the middle of the record. The 3.5 version of BW loads this file without problem. I have the character included as an allowed special character. What can I do to make BI 7 load the record? Am I missing a setting?

Hi
you can change the operator to some other sign , available at extraction tab of infopackage. make data format to " Seperated with seperator ( for example CSV )" and then change data seperator to some other isgn. I genrally use , .
Make sure while saving the file you save it as csv , comma delimited.
thanks,
Monika

Export and import change document for user master data

Dear Gurus,
I have two queries on change document for user master data:
1. Are there any approaches to export and import change document for user master data?
We often do system copy from PRD to QAS for UAT and troubleshooting. Before system copy we export the user master data from QAS and then import after the copy process. We would like to keep the change document for user master data on QAS from being refreshed from PRD for security reason.
2. Change document for Role change in QAS
When the role is created or modified in DEV and then transported to QAS, the role change document doen't include this change log. The role change document in QAS only records those role changes directly made in QAS.
Could you advise this is by SAP design or are there any approaches to record this transported role change in the role change document in QAS?
Thanks
YBY

1. Perhaps you want to consider a system copy to a "virtual system" for UAT?
2. Changes in QAS (as with PROD as well) will give you the delta. They should ideally be clean... You need to check the source system.
Another option is to generate the profiles in the target system. But for that your config has to be sqeaky clean and in sync, including very well maintained and sync'ed Su24 data.

Hold down the on/off button and the home button for 20 to 30 sec, when the iPod starts and the Apple logo is on the screen release the on/off button but continue to hold the home button until you see the plug into iTunes screen. Connect the iPod to iTunes and you should be good to go.

Message Type for Material Master Data Changes

Hi all
I'm managing Message Types for Material Master Data extraction from R\3 system to BW system, in order to load on BW only the changes done to some fields of MARA table that are delta relevant.
Now from R/3 BD50 Transaction I can see that there is a message type that refer to changes done on MARA fields: RS0044.
I would like to replace this message type with another one (RS0020) in order to align different systems.
Now changes to material master data in R/3 system are recorder with both message types but only those with RS0044 message type are processed and loaded into BW system.
So I would like to know:
1. How is the message type related to the DataSource 0material?
2. is it possible to replace a message type for BW?
3. if yes, how can I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Oscar!
At the moment I'm using Delta queue of 0MATERIAL. I know that in the queue there are all the new and changed records.
But I would like to be able not to load all the changed records, but only those that refer to some fields of MARA table.
E.g. if the gross weight of a material is modified I don't want to load this change on BW with Delta loading .
I've seen that from R/3 Transaction BD52 you can set only delta relevant fields referred to a specific message type and to delete the other fields.
As I'm able to do this directly in the Development system and Test System, I haven't got the authorization of doing it in the Production system.
That's why I need to include this setting in a CR and then ask to transport it from Test to Production system.
But message types referred to MARA field changes are different between the two systems.
And it seems they are automatically created.
Is it true?
Thanks
Elisa

Delta for cubes & master data

Bonjour,
I am a bit confused about some concepts of BW. Hope to get clarified here in good ole SDN.
1. Infocube is said to be ADD only. Yet, its data deletable eg. by request. How do I interpret this? Is it deletable only by requests? How about selectively as detail as single records? How about field level deletion (instead of a whole record)?
2. Is a 'new' image (rec mode "N") = 'after' image (rec mode " ")?
3. How is Repair Request compared to Pseudo Delta? Are they both only and must selectively delete by month / time char only? Can either be deleted by single records?
4. Master data is said to be usually overwritten. How is it so? What Delta type(s) are we talking about by this? How is Master data aggregated? Can it be? What does serialization and duplicate master data processing mean? How can master data prevent duplicates?
What's the usual and possible practices to manage delta for Master data attr,txt,hier?
Awaiting your reply.
best regards,
Pascal Gabin

1. Infocube is said to be add only because it is different from ODS or master data where you can 'merge or overwrite' data. When 2 records are loaded into an Infocube, if they are different in any one field, they will be stored as 2 seperate records (in the fact table of the cube). Whereas if 2 records are loaded into an ODS, and the records are similar in terms of the key of the ODS, only 1 record will be created in the ODS with the second records details overwriting the first if there is a clash.
From a cube you can delete data either selectively by specifying ranges or delete an entire request. You cannot do field level deletions.
2. No they are different. Let us say there is a record with 2 fields Customer and Amount being loaded into an ODS. First record loaded is (Pascal, 10.00). Then there will be a New-image record (Pascal, 10.00,N). After this a second record (Pascal, 15.00) is loaded. After this there will be 3 records.
Pascal, 10.00, New Image
Pascal, -10.00, Before Image
Pascal, 15.00, After Image.
All 3 add to 15.00.
3. Not able to understand your question. Deletion of all requests are I think the same. Selective deletion can be done only for a Infocube not for an ODS. See answer 1.
4. Master data usually changes very little. For eg, a customer 100013 is always 100013. Once in a while his phone number might change. When it does, it is picked up by the delta and the existing record in BW is overwritten. There is only one type of delta for master data. Not sure of what is the exact name. Master data is aggregated by specifying the key to the master data table.
The best practice is to maintain delta only for large master data objects (Customers, Materials etc). For all of these SAP has provided delta-enabled datasources which can be used. For the rest, full-uploads suffice.

How to use LSMW on CRM for bulk master data creation?

Hello Experts,
I need your help to able to use LSMW on CRM for bulk master data creation. Below is described my detailed requirement; -
We have CRM 2007 integrated with SAP ISU (ECC6.0). As per business process all Business Master Data (BP details, Business Agreement details etc) and Technical Master Data (Connection Object, PoD etc.) is created in CRM and then it is replicated in ISU. We are going to start Assembly Test soon. Now we need to have all master data in place. Tool we want to use is LSMW.
Now can you help me right from scratch on how to use LSMW for bulk master data creation in CRM?
Please give me documents / links etc that is relevant.
Regards,
Rohit

Hi,
I have looked into your query.
These are some information which might be useful to you.
What is LSMW?
Legacy System Migration Workbench or LSMW is SAP standard program that can be used to easily load / change master data or transactions in SAP without any programming at all. It can be used to upload data at cutover, such as: open orders, contracts, materials, vendors, stock on hand. It can also be used in a production system to make changes to existing data. Very limited authorization checks are available on the transaction, so the use of it must be very well controlled.
One input file can be used to create all the views of the material master. For all the material types. Even if different views and fields are used for the different materials.
Steps to take
1. Create text file with data to be loaded
2. Set up and run LSMW
The following link will provide good information on LSMW Idoc method:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ad/2d54a41d7011d2b42e006094b944c8/frameset.htm]
I hope this helps.
