Characteristics into a multiprovider

Hi:
I'm making a Query based in a multiprovider (two cubes). I would like to know if this cubes must have exactly the same characteristics to display key figures from both cubes, or it's enough to have one or two characteristccs in comon, like 0COMPANY_CODE or 0EQUIPMENT.
Besides this when i put a characteristic contained only in one cube as a navegation attribute¿ Does it only display the key figures of his corresponding cube?
Points for helpful answers.
Thanks

Hi,
If you want to display the key figures from both the cubes then make sure that whatever char you are using in the rows of the reports should be present in both the cubes.
If it is present only  in one cube then only key figures from that cube will show agains respective char and key figure values from the other cube which doesn't contain that char will show up in #.which will not help in any sense.
In identification you do not need to have evrything from both the cubes only those chars which are supposed to be used in the drill down and are used in the rows are needed to be present in both the cubes.
for navigation question yes it will only pick the values from one of the cube and will put there values against respective chars.others will pile up against #.
Hope it helps
Thanks

  • Transfer of Material Class characteristics into Batch

    Hello,
    Is there a way to transfer the material specific class characteristics ( maintained in material class 001) into Batch, while creating a new batch?
    For e.g. for Material A, i have Material Class Characteristic = COLOR, with a value RED.
    So if i create a new Batch for Material A, the COLOR characteristic in Batch should get defaulted to RED, instead of manually entering.
    Pl let us know, if this is possible.
    Regards,
    Mangesh
    P.S: I know there is Default check at the characteristic value level, but that doesn't help, as each material will have different value.

    Dear,
    You can use function module exit EXIT_SAPLV01Z_014  SAP enhancement SAPLV1ZN when assigning characteristic values to batches with EXTENDED_CLASSIFYING parameter. You use this to classify user-defined characteristics in the background when creating a new batch using the central function module VB_CREATE_BATCH during activated batch classification.
    Refer IMG>Batch Mngmt>Characteristics Value Assignment>...using function module
    Please try and come back.

  • Making selected copy transfer its characteristics into an already made style

    Hi,
    I often have a task of artworking a file from designers into a proper artwork file, where I use a master template with built in stylesheets or styles, as they are called in ID. I always wanted an option to select, say, a heading from a text box and tell it to transfer its characteristics to an already made style on my list.
    Example: I copy text boxes from the original design file with all the text broken from their original style (break link to style), effectively making it "No style", into my template and I click in a paragraph and  I want to call it Heading 1, which I already have in my template.
    The essence of this need is I use GREP styles in my template, but I don't want the tedious task of manually selecting the font, size, colour and any other characteristic of the selected text into my styles. I want to do two things in one go.
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    You're still not entirely clear, Are you saying you want to redfine the style to use the font specs from the unstyled text while retaining other attributes, like GREP and Nested Styles?
    If that's the case, redfine the styles first to use the parameters you want, then use Find/Change to find the text that has the parameters you want to assign that style to.

  • Loading time-dependend characteristics into an info-object ?

    Hello,
    I have one infoobject with 10 characteristics, 9 of them are not time depended, 1 is time dependend.
    When loading the infoobject (daily) with a transformation and a DTP the system creates always new entries in the table of the infoobject (validity from the actual day till 31.12.9999; limiting the old entry to the valid-to-date of yesterday), although the entry has not changed.
    Why is that so ? Why doesn´t the system only create a new validity-period if there has been a change in the time-depending information ?
    Does anyone have experience concering that ?
    Regards,
    Martin

    I was able to load data, but however I changed the way I am loading data. Now I have another issue, when I load the name, it loads the name to other records where the TODATE is not the date I am checking.
      SELECT SINGLE TXTMD
        INTO mname
        FROM /BIC/TZBUSEMP
        WHERE /BIC/ZBUSEMP = TRAN_STRUCTURE-EMPLOYEE   AND
              DATETO = '99991231'.
    though I have the DATE RANGE is specific it update the name for all records? How can I avoid this?

    Hi,
    Multicube is based on Join and therefore all the charateristics which are part of the report like rows of the report or in the drill down of the report..... should be part of the both the cubes.
    Either you can have same char and key figures from both the cubes in the report or char from both the cube and key from any cubes.Then only the values will come in single records.
    Its not possible to combine the char from one cube and key figure from others in case of multicube and will give you result in two different rows.
    You should go for infoset for those cases.
    Thanks

  • Cannot add InfoObjects into Multiprovider definition??

    Hi all,
    I had created a Multiprovider somtime back and am trying to add a Time Unit and some Characteristics from my InfoCube into the Multiprovider using Drag & Drop. But I cannot drag & drop anything into the Multiprovider Dimensions. Is there some solution for this? I'm workingin BI 7.0.
    Thanks. points will be awarded.

    Hi Sebastian,
    Instead of Drag and drop, try giving the name of the Infoobject directly.
    Hope it works.

  • Copying Calculated Key Figs into Multiprovider

    I have two cubes ZAC_CUBE and ZPL_CUBE the structure of the cubes is not same...
    By using these cubes I have a MULTIPROVIDER (ZMUL_CUBE)am currently creating queries using the multiprovider.
    I would like to use the Calculated keyfigures from the cubes (CAN I COPY) into a MULTIPROVIDER.. Its taking a lot of time to create the same Calculated keyfigures with another Technical Name... Any Suggessions..Please..
    Preetham...

    dear pritham
    if u are sure about the containt of multiprovider then u can do one thing, add all the objects from the source cube to the multicube, tehn transfer ur queries from baic cubes to the multicube. Now a note of caution: key fig technical names are unique in a system so while copying by RSZC the technocal names will be incremented by either by next available digit or get appended last by '_1', but u can identify ur calculated KFs and Restricted KFs by their Text (I mean Title).
    Now u can remove unwanted objects from the multicube.
    may this will help u out.
    kindly assign the points if it helps.

  • Multiprovider design (InfoObject assign) and query dehavior

    Hi experts,
    we have a hetergenous  multiprovider, it has several InfoCube as the basis cube.  when execute the query, it will display some duplicated records.
    1) the two duplicated records are exactly the same, including characteristics, navigational atrribute, key figures.
    2) the two duplicated records have the same characteristics, navigational attribute, with some of different key figures .
    It's very hard to identify the root cause why for some of the records, it will have duplicated records.  Meanwhile, I have some question for the multiprovider design..
    For example, now we have 4 InfoCube..
    In those 4 infoCube, we have the 0Material inside. at Multiprovider level, 0Plant are assign from those 4 infoCube
    Only 3 of the InfoCube, have the 0Plant inside. at Multiprovider level, 0material are assign from those 3 infoCube.
    1) what will happen , if I include 0plant and 0material as the rows in the query designer, will this cause some duplciated records ?
    Now , 0Material, have the navigational attrribute, 0mateiral_0matl_type,  If I only 3 Cube has the
    0mateiral_0matl_type Open and assign into the Multiprovider..
    In my query, I use the 0material, and also 0material_0matl_type as the variable , both could input the values, and display in the rows
    What will happen ? if not all the navigational attribute are assigned at the Multiprovider level, but the master data InfoObject 0material it self are all assigned at the multiprovider level.
    2 ) Is there any influence to retrieve the record ?  I am not sure if 0Material are correctly assigned, 0material_matl_type will influence the result (number of records), or will this cause duplicate records ?
    I think in some of the case, in the sub -cube, not all the required InfoObject, or navigational attribute are avalable at the ALL Cube level, but in the query level, they are used.
    Finally, what could be the reason for duplicated records ?? they should be merged after execution..
    Please share your comments.  Thank you very much.
    Best Regards,
    muwenziwu

    HI muwenziwu,
    If you iunclude any characteristics or a navigational attribute which is not common in both the infoproviders
    then the it will show the result in a seperate line ,
    But you have a option to overcome this , refer the How to document in the below link

  • Doubt on Multiprovider.

    Hi BW Experts,
    I am just creating the Multiprovider.After selecting the two Cubes, I am trying to activate the Multi provider. While Activating, I am getting the error as "Assignments for Info Object has not yet been Maintained"
    Currently we are using the BI7.I dont find any Check Options to maintain the Common fields.
    The Error Message :
    Diagnosis
    The MultiProvider definition contains an InfoObject that has not been assigned to the relevant InfoProviders.
    Procedure
    Choose Identification and highlight the assignment for InfoObject Z_SOFTH, or remove the InfoObject from the MultiProvider.
    Please help on this.
    Thanks,
    Jelina.

    Hi,
    Creation steps :
    1. Go to the info area where you want the multi provider; right click and chose create multi provider.
    2. Chose a technical name and also choose the info providers that you make part of this multi provider.
    3. When you confirm your entries, you will get a infocube maintenance screen; on the right side, you will see the characteristics available in al the basic cubes that you choose in the first step.
    4. Select the chars that you wish to be in the multiprovider and similarly for time chars, key figs, and nav attributes ( if any).
    5. Choose to create dimension and you will get a system msg whether to create from any of the basic cubes.
    6. Either select to create your own dimension and insert all the chars in to the approprate dimensions.
    7. Go back to chars tab and there will be tab for "idendification" click that and here is where you specify which are the chars form each cube you want into the multiprovider. And likewise for the key figure.
    8. Activate the multiprovider.
    Hope it helps

  • Working of a Multiprovider

    Hi All,
    We have created a multiprovider using purchasing (0pur_c01) and quality managemtn infoproviders. We are fetching purchase order number from 0pur_C01 only and material from all other info-providers.
    When the query is executed giving PO numbers as 75* the report also gives materials for whom there are no POs in the said number range. These extra mats have POs in 35* number series. Is this correct behaviour of the MP. To the best of my understanding if the report is run for 75* it shud give data only for materials with POs in the said range and not any other range. If this is an anomaly how can this be rectified ?
    Regards,

    A union operation is used to combine the data from these objects into a MultiProvider. Here, the system constructs the union set of the data sets involved. In other words, all values of these data sets are combined. As a comparison: InfoSets are created using joins. These joins only combine values that appear in both tables. In contrast to a union, joins form the intersection of the tables
    In a Multiprovider, every characteristic in each of the Infoproviders involved must correspond to exactly one characteristic or navigation attribute (wherever these are available). If it is not clear, at the MultiProvider definition stage, you have to specify to which InfoObject you want to assign the characteristic of the MultiProvider.
    The MultiProvider contains the characteristic 0COUNTRY and an InfoProvider contains the characteristic 0COUNTRY as well as the navigation attribute 0CUSTOMER__0COUNTRY. In this case, select exactly one of these InfoObjects in the assignment table.
    Select a key figure contained in a MultiProvider from at least one of the InfoProviders involved. In general, exactly one of the InfoProviders provides the key figure. However, there are cases where it is better to select from more than one InfoProvider:
    If the 0SALES key figure is stored redundantly in more than one InfoProvider (meaning that it is contained completely in all value combinations of the characteristics) you must select from exactly one of the InfoProviders involved (otherwise the duplicated value is added incorrectly in the MultiProvider).
    However, if 0SALES is stored as an actual value in one InfoProvider and as a planned value in another InfoProvider so that there is no overlap between the data records (in other words, sales are divided separately between several InfoProviders) then it makes sense to make a selection across several InfoProviders.

  • Steps to create Multiprovider and infosets..

    Hi gurus,
                 Can anyone post me steps to create multiprovider and infosets..
    Points will be awarded.
    Thanks in advance,
    Venkatesh

    A MultiProvider is a type of InfoProvider that combines data from a number of InfoProviders and makes it available for analysis purposes.
    The MultiProviders itself does not contain any data. Its data comes entirely from the InfoProviders on which it is based. MultiProviders only exist as a logical definition. These InfoProviders are connected to one another by a union operation.
    One can combine InfoCube, ODS objects, InfoObjects and InfoSets in a MultiProvider.
    A union operation is used to combine the data from these objects into a MultiProvider.
    Here, the system constructs the union set of the data sets involved. In other words, all values of these data sets are combined.
    InfoSets allows reporting on several InfoProviders by using combinations of InfoObjects (master data-bearing characteristics) and ODS objects via a join condition.
    An InfoSet can have following join conditions
    Inner Join
    Left Outer Join
    Inner join and left outer join are only different in the situation where one of the involved tables does not contain any suitable record which meets the join conditions.
    steps for creatin multiprovider.
    Step1: Enter Transaction RSA1. Right Click on Infoarea and select u2018Create MultiProvideru2019. Provide technical name and description for the MultiProvider.

    Step3: Select the Characteristics which should be part of the MultiProvider design.
    Step4: Select Time Characteristics and Key figures.
    Step5: Create dimensions and assign the characteristics to the dimensions.
    Step6: Identify the characteristics, time characteristics and key figures in u2018Identificationu2019 tab.
    Step7: Save and Activate the MultiProvider.

  • Prob in multiprovider creation

    Hi can any one guide me what are the steps of creating multiprovider
    specially with the combination of dso and cube or combination of 2 cubes
    I think that multiprovider is union connection of infoproviders but when i am creating multiprovider with dso and cube it gives me errors as all the keyfigures
    and characteristic are not assigned
    though i have assigned all of them
    what could be the prob.
    thanks

    Hi,
    1. Create an InfoArea to which you want to assign the new MultiProvider.
    2. Choose Modeling InfoProvider.
    3. In the context menu of the InfoArea, choose Create MultiProvider.
    4. Enter a technical name and a description.
    5. Choose Create.
    6. Select the InfoProvider that you want to form the MultiProvider. Choose Continue. The MultiProvider screen appears.
    7. Use drag and drop to transfer the required InfoObjects into your MultiProvider. You can also transfer entire dimensions.
    8. Use Identify Characteristics and Select Key Figures to make InfoObject assignments between MultiProviders and InfoProviders.
    In a MultiProvider, each InfoObject in the MultiProvider must correspond to exactly one InfoObject in each of the InfoProviders involved (as long as it is available in the MultiProvider). If this mapping is not clear, you have to specify the InfoObject to which you want to assign the InfoObject in the MultiProvider.
    9. Save or Activate the MultiProvider. Only active MultiProviders are available for analysis and reporting.
