Convert Char. to Master Data

Hello Experts,
I have a char. in the system. And I would like to convert it to  master data. Because I am going to add to an attribute.
What should I do?

Hi ,
1- Go to Transaction RSD1 and Enter the technical name of your Info Object and select the change option .
2- go to Master Data/ Text Tab of Info object .
3- Select the check box With Master Data and if you need text of master data then select the With Texts check box also .
You can select short ,medium and long text as per your need .
4- Now you can see that Attribute Tab has been appeared for the Info object . You can enter display or navigation attribute as per your requirement .
Do not forget to re-activate the info object again .
Note : If your object is already used in Info provider , system will not allow to make above changes . So First remove it from Info provider and then do this changes .
Hope it helps .
Regards

  • Pupulating Char with Master data attribute

    Hi,
    I need to populate the characteristic with a master data attribute value at the tranfer rules.
    Can anybody send me the code to do so.
    If it is at Update rules we have the option of Master data attribute of.
    But I need to do it at transfer rules.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Indira,
    It is difficult to give the exact code but, here is the pseudo code:
    In the start routine:
    select * from /bic/m<characteristic>
    into itab for all entries in datapak
    where ..............
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    sort itab by....
    endif.
    In the mapping for the info object, create a routine and the following code goes in there:
    read table itab with key ......
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    result = itab-********
    endif.
    Make sure you handle time dependencies if the master data attribute is time dependent.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi
    1. You can edit it in PSA and go ahead with the load for quick fixing of the issue.
    2. Allow these chars in RSKC , make sure if the following are updated in your RSKC:
         #${}¬`"£~@:;'|><,./.,$%^&*()ALL_CAPITAL_PLUS_HEX 
    3. You an use aroutine aswell to allow the char if you want.
    Hope this helps.

    Hello Guru,
    I have NW BPC 7.5 installed on BW server. Currently i have started to work on one application where i have to load master data first. I am loading master data for cost center.
    I looked into the process chain "BPC: Import BW InfoObject master data" and i found that few processes are  in GREEN color and few are in RED color (Display). is that correct or not ? then as per some of the thread i went to "BPC: Convert BW infoObject master data" --> SOURCE_TYPE = IP  and added one parameter "FORMULA_FILE_NO". Then i saved this process chain and activated it.
    I created transformation file in BPC and it got created successfully but while i try to load packages it throws me error.
    Q. Do i need to have entire process chain with all processes in GREEN to have the master data in BPC ?
    Q. Do i need to activate any BADI's for this or not ?
    I appreciate your help in advance. I trie

  • Report problem when show attribute only Characteristic text master data

    I want to show the attribute only Characteristic in report. In report, it shows "Not assigned" for the Char row, but other data show properly. I checked the Char text master data. It looks fine. I don't what's problem?

    hi robert,
    some of your characteristics probably don't have the attribute assigned (meaning they have a blank value for that attribute). i don't know if this is configurable, but blank entries all display as '#' and the text 'Not Assigned'.
    (as an additional comment, if you take a look at the masterdata of the attribute you used (which i presume exists), there should be a blank entry there.)
    for example, in the case of the deletion flag of an article, not all articles are flagged for deletion. if you create a report that displays the article number and the deletion flag attribute, you'll see quite a bunch of 'not assigned'/'X' in your output.
    let me know if that helps.

    under it..u will see list of char in that dimension..
    for some characteristics u will see an arrow beside it..expand it..u will see further list of char..(with yellow icons)..
    these are the list of attributes for that particular characteristic..
    for char that have no attr..there will be no arrow beside it..

    Hi Rathna,
    Just put the SP like this, without the -- before the IF. A -- marks the line as a command therefore you need to uncomment and it will work.
    IF @OBJECT_TYPE = '59' AND (@TRANSACTION_TYPE = 'A' or @TRANSACTION_TYPE = 'U')
      BEGIN
       IF EXISTS(
        SELECT T0.Price FROM IGN1 T0

  • Can we restrict a master data characterstic using another master data chara

    Hi All,
    Can we restrict a master data characterstic using another master data characterstic, if they were both compounded together. There are two fields viz.., A,B  in r/3 master data table in which A and B combinely serve as a key. In BW side i have created a master data object for A and compuded object B ot it. So that i am getting all the data from r/3 table. But in query designer when i am trying to restrict object A values by object B, in a structure i am not getting any data. If i do same out of structure i am getting data in report. Please help in overcoming this problem.
    Regards,
    Rajkandula

    Hi,
    Yes it should display data, but it is not displaying. If i am doing the same restriction out side of a structure i am getting data. But whilr trying to do so, i am not getting that. The reason why i am bothering about structure is 'Objext B have 10 different values and i want 10 coloumns in report in whicg Obj A must display respective data when i restrict it by B' , whicg i can do this only if i use structure else i can't restrict B that many times .
    I hope u got my problem and plz give help me in this.

  • Leading zeros-master data

    Hi All,
    We have a characteristic 'Material'(custom defined master data infoObject) of length
    10,Conversion routine:ALPHA, datatype :CHAR,& output length:10.
    Requirement is Material number should be displayed as 10 digit number(characters ) in Bex
    report.
    but for some of the materials,we  don't have 10 digits for example we have a material
    123(this 123 should be seen as 0000000123 in Query output).
    When i am displaying infocube contents or master data contents i could see 123 as
    0000000123. but with F4,it shows 123 as 123  and in Query output also as '123'
    1.actually How data will be stored in infocube and master data tables? (either 123 or
    0000000123)
    2. one soution to display matarial as 10 char in report is  with  transfer/update routine by
    adding leading zeros.
    Is there any other way to achieve this without using routine ?kendly let me know.
    correct me if my above asumption is wrong.
    thanks

    Hi Murali,
    the Alpha Conversion ist used to convert data between an internal and an external view. The internal view is how the data is physically stored in the database. The external is i.e. how the data is displayed in reports.
    At some point the Alpha Conversion (if defined for the characteristic) is automatically used - you can not change it. This means that in this cases you can only see the external format. The BEx Reporting is one place and the F4 help another.
    In some places within the BW system (no enduser view) you have the option to see the data in the internal format. One of these places ist the cube content. There you have a flag "Do not use any conversion". If this flag is activated you will see the data in the internal format. But this is NOT the format a user will see in reporting.
    In your case the internal format is the value "0000000123" and the external "123".
    Hope that helps
    Regards
    Adios

  • Master data load prob from flat file

    hi to all .........
    here i have some q which are very basic.
    1)  i have defined a char "purchase order date" and i have defined the data type as "DATS " . now i am trying to load master data to this. so i went to the infoprovider's infoarea and right clicked and choose "Insert characteristics as infoprovider" it says " it is not base char so it cant b a data target. then h to load data master data to this.
    2) while define the DSO where should i place the characteristic in key fields or in the data fileds ,  where should i put the key figures,   since its dso i should include record mode na , where should i insert it.
    thank u in advance

    HI,
    1) i have defined a char "purchase order date" and i have defined the data type as "DATS " . now i am trying to load master data to this. so i went to the infoprovider's infoarea and right clicked and choose "Insert characteristics as infoprovider" it says " it is not base char so it cant b a data target. then h to load data master data to this.
    Character stics we can convert as infoprovider which are independent, Date field is time characterstic it is not independent it is depnds on some charasterstic(like based on customer, material,plant these type of objects u can conevert as info provider)
    in your case u want to load data to DSO
    2) while define the DSO where should i place the characteristic in key fields or in the data fileds , where should i put the key figures, since its dso i should include record mode na , where should i insert it.
    Never keep the keyfigurs in key fields column.
    remaining characterstics (all even date characterstics aslo) u can keep in  keyfields
    in keeping key fileds u should analuse on which basis combination the records  should be over written based on that u can decide
    eg: matreial no , customer number  is unique then u can keep those in key fields
    even date also unique (means on same date same material , same customer not there) then u can keep  date also in Key fields,
