COPA datasource - Infoobject identification / automatic generation

Hi,
I have generated COPA data source in R/3, replicated in on BW side and now I'm trying to map fields to infoobjects (+undestand which ones are key fields for the staging DSO). Data source is deplicated as 7.0 one.
My planned flow is: data source -> write optimized DSO -> standard DSO -> Cube.
I have pdf on COPA extraction from sdn by SAP which says, that BW shoudl automatically either match or generate new Ifobojects for all fields that were direcly maintained in COPA - there should be en option application proposal
Here is the excerpt:
"InfoObjects are only created automatically for value fields and user-defined characteristics if the DataSource is mapped to an InfoSource using the source system view in the SAP BW Administrator Workbench. In this case, a dialog box appears in which you can choose Application Proposal. With this function, any missing InfoObjects are created for value fields, measure unit fields, and the user-defined characteristics described above when the InfoSource is generated."
I assume this si only when data source is 3.5 one? Does it mean that I need to create all infoobject myself (the ones for which I cannot identify business content) as I have 7.0 data source? Is there any benefit for using 7.0 data source?
Second question - are fields like VV001 Intercompany Price - caluclated in COPA? I have several fields that follow the patter VVxxx (xxx being a number) for which I cannot find corresponding content infoobjects.
Could you also give me corresponding infoobjects for fields PRABA (Price reduction - 0PRICE_RED?) and VRPRS
(Stick Value or CoGS - no ide here)?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Voodi,
I followed ur instructions and tried to create a transformation between 3.x infosource and 7.0 datasource. system prompted to create new infsource and copied all the infoobjects which were part of the 3.x standard infosource.
But still system does not propose any infoobjects for the value fields starting with VV* . In BW3.5 for all VV* fields, system used to propose infoobjects strating with 0GV*. Did u get system to propose these infoobjects?
Thanks for ur help

Base on the above characteristic fields how can i consider the infoobjects from BW to laod masterdata.
Do i need to consider the base tables for characteristics and for value fileds apart from CE1XXX,CE2XX,CE3XXX,CE4XXX tables.
Please give me your ideas on this.
Thanks,

Hi Durgesh,
Thanks for your response,
Data is coming perfectly in RSA3 for COPA datasource.
There is a confusion while reconciling the data with ECC system.(transaction KE24).
Functional consultant has reconcile one transaction with a reference document number and with certain currency type(Company code currency/Operating concern currency).
But still i confuse with the Masterdata Loading.
Because masterdata attribute fileds are taking directly from the operating concern in COPA which is normally won't happen with the other scenario.
(Say for CUSTOMER attribute are CUSTOMER GROUP and COUNTRY, In COPA scenario these are directly available in operating concern which will be available for datasource.But for other scenarios for CUSTOMER GROUP and COUNTRY fill with the CUSTOMER attributes hence my idea is whether we need to load masterdata in BI or not.)
Please give your valuable o/p.
Thanks,
Satya

Enhance COPA datasource

I need to enhance a COPA datasource but I cannot add fields in COPA structure as it is already full. So Need to write a code to populate the fields. We require partner function fields from VBPA table and populate the data.
I cannot create generic delta based on VBPA as this does not contain timestamp field.
When writing the code and populate the data, Will this fetch Delta data for COPA datasource? for ex. if someone changes the partner function for sales order will that be captured as a delta? If not then please suggest what should be the approach for above.
Regards,
Girish

Hi,
Look up will work. it will be another way for you.
but delta on partner function will won't work thru LO data sources.
LO data sources are standard one and will work on their own delta function.
You need to understand more functionally about partner function.
this won't be the unique for one record. same function will may have multiple records.
in such cases we don't have any option to make partner function as delta relevant field thru custom data source.
Another work around:
Create one custom data source on table VBPA with less fields along with partner function.
load custom data source data to bw DSO(xyz).
create multiprovider on custom DSO(xyz) and copa cube.
At data source - you need to run daily full load only(info pack and dtp)
Thanks

Question on automatic generation of PO's through ME59 ??

hi all,
while automatic generation of PO's from Pr's through me59n i need to check if the PR has OA ( outline agrement ) or contract assigned to it. if only OA or contract is assigned to PR then PO needs to be generated else PO should not be generated.
to summerize for PR's which does not have contract assigend to it. it should not generate PO's how do i restrict . please let me know.
Thanks,
Shiva..
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Mar 4, 2008 2:44 PM

Hi,
For automatic PO creation check the following steps.
1) Material Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box
2) Vendor Master purchasing view tick automatic PO check box.
3) Maintain Source list for Vendor & Material.
4) Maintain Purchase Info Record.
5) Create a Purchase Requisition.
6) Use T.Code: ME59N & execute for PR for vendor, you will be able to create automatic PO.
Note:
1.Ensure that Purchase Info Record should be there.
2.If you have more than one vendor then fixes only one vendor in source list.
3.During PR creation select the check box of Source Determination

Automatic Generation of classes with required attribute names

Does SRM/ROS or PPS addon support automatic generation of digital certifica

Hi Experts,
Does SRM / ROS or PPS addon support automatic generation of digital certificate for suppliers when they get registered in SRM? if not, is there any Badi or standard enhancement spot for the same?
Otherwise, how the digital certificates are communicated to suppliers to open the digitally signed documents from buyer side?
Thanks in advance,

But I would like to know is,
1. why its working in DEV?
2. How to fix this error in QA?

How to add new column to COPA datasource?

Dear all,
It seems we have to delete the COPA datasource and regenerate it when we need add new column, if so,we should regenerate the initialIzation for the delta.
Beacause only the new delta data need have value for new column,so I do not want to reextract the historical data,do you have any solution?
Best regards
Simon

Hi Simon
You are correct, COPA DS need to be regenerated.
Initialize without Data Transfer might help you. But was thinking how do you manage the 'lost' delta in between the processes?
I m not sure about your flows i.e how data moves from PSA to cube but I think at least you should
Initialize the delta for the current fiscal year ( with Data Transfer) and then continue with delta.
Which type of COPA you are using? Account based or Cost Based? For Acc Based delta initialization starts from summarization level , so you also need to fill up summarization level at least for the current year.

Selection of 0CURTYPE in a copa datasource

Hi everybody,
I'm being asked to give a hand to a colleague of mine....
he has a problem with the copa datasource...Unfortunately
i've always worked on extraction from modules sd and mm...
and I don't know how copa exctraction works... I've found
a lot of documents... read some of them... but now I need
your help...
his problem is related to 0CURTYPE...the requirement is
to exctract only the company code values..I thought then that
if the 0CURTYPE was available as selection field in the
infopackage... the problem would be easily solved.... but
at the moment it is not a selection field and
moreover to make it a selection field it would mean recreate
the datasource and apply the oss note 390146. I'm told that
we're not allowed to recreate the datasource... so I was wondering
now if I could make this selection in R3..adding some code in the
CMOD...something like...
case...
when 'COPA'
delete data_package where CURTYPE NE '10'....
or something like that....
will the "delete data_package" work here?...have you got
any other idea?
they would filter the data directly in the R3 environment...
thank you very much for your help

To stop automatic generation of excise invoice for

Dear Experts,
I am creating Profroma Invoice just after Sales Order in export cycle. While saving the proforma invoice, system automatically generates excise invoice.
Will you please guide me how to stop the Proforma Invoice from automatic generation of excise invoice?
With regards,
Jhelum Roy.

Check the excise group for the transaction.
The follow the following path in SPRO:
IMG - LG- Tax on Goods Movements-India-Basic Settings-Maintain Excise Groups
There uncheck the box EXCISE INV DURING BILLING
As, this will create Excise Invoice automatically. So, it instructs the system to automatically create an outgong excise invoice immediately you create a commercial invoice or a pro forma invoice. The system creates the excise invoice in the background.
Also, If you want to make use of this function, you must also define the default plant, excise group, and series groups in Customizing for Excise Duty, by choosing Business Transactions -> Outgoing Excise Invoices -> Maintain Default Excise Groups and Series Groups.
If that is uncheck already, create & post inv single step indicator
As, this is automatic posting for J1IS and it instructs the system to automatically verify and post excise invoices that you create using the Excise Invoices for Other Movements transaction.
Thanks & Regards

Can't display COPA datasource...message table entry doesn't exist

Hi,
I am trying to display my COPA datasource and it's giving me a message stating it can't because a table entry is missing. In debugging I can see the table entry it's reading is tkebwlgn.
I've tried everything, but cannot display/delete this.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I resolved this by executing RSA6 and making a "change" by selecting a field as selectible and saving. Then went back in and unchecked it and saved it.
The table entry then appeared and the datasource could be viewed.
Just in case someone else comes across this problem.
