COPA DS enhancement

Hi,
I want to enhance COPA DS. Normally the operating concern has to be modified and the the COPA DS needs to be recreated after deleting the old one. But my client doesnt want that operating concern should be touched. he is ok if i append the extract structure.
Are there any points that should be taken care of while doing this or while transporting the COPA DS like reinit delta etc or anything specific to copa that needs to be taken care of...
There are many threads in SDN on COPA DS enhancement but i could not get the exact one..

I have an ODS and then the cube in the flow. How do i take care that the new fields have the data in the cube. How do i make sure that old records have the value for the appended fields
Do i need to delete data from the ods first and the cube can you please clarify this........ As the cube is already in the production please confirm what steps do i need to take care to make sure the complete set of data is available

  • Enhancement of COPA extractor

    Hi All,
    I need to add a field "Exchange Rate" in COPA extractor so that it pulls data in BW (ODS). I have checked, the field is present in COPA table CE1BOCE (where BOCE is my Cost based operating Concern). But when I recreate the COPA extractor (1_CO_PA_BOCE_12) using KEB0, the field "Exchange Rate" is not present for selection. How do I add this field in COPA datsource?
    I have found out two options. Please do let me know, is there any other approach or which one of the following is correct to implement.
    1) Enhance the datasource in RSA6 to add a new field (Exchange Rate) and populate using CMOD.
    2) Add the field in operating Concern and re-create the COPA datasource.
    It is recommended to add a field in Operating Concern?
    Thank You.

    Hi,
    You cannot enhance COPA DataSource directly if you want to add the field directly to the CO-PA data source. You need to delete the data source and then need to re-create using KEB2 transaction.
    Advise your CO person to enhance to operating concern first and hence this shall reflect in COPA tables,
    and then re-create ur COPA datasource.

  • FI to COPA Value fields Currency translation

    Hello All,
    We are having the following situation.
    1) The company code currency is RUB
    2) Operating concern currency is EUR.
    3) Second local currency as EUR.
    we are using a customised program to run the settlement. This program calls the KE21 transaction and creates the settlement line items.
    The program passes the amount in the document currency to Ke21 transaction and the transaction inturn  does the currency conversion to operating concern currency EUR.
    The issue is that because of this there are some differences in the Amount in FI and Amount in CO-PA in EUR currency because the RUB exchange rate  is volatile.
    The userexit COPA0004 will give control only to the exchange rate type that can be defined.
    Please let us know whether there is any user exit or any other way to have a control on the date of the currency conversion.
    We tried sending the Second local currency,in this case the amount in EUR(Operating concern) is correct but the amount in the company code currency-RUB in COPA (Ke23)is not matching with the FI amount.
    Hence our assumption is that if we can have a control on the date of the conversion then the FI and COPA amounts will match.
    Please let us know incase the above requirement can be achived in any other way.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards
    Pavan M

    You should be able to achieve this by implementing the COPA valuation enhancement.  Enhancement COPA0002, EXIT_SAPLKEAB_001 can be used to populate value fields.  To use the exit you first must assign an exit number to your valuation strategy (t-code KE4U), which you then use in the exit.  You can find documentation for the enhancement there as well.
    thanks,

  • How to Activate at least one part of the Business Content of CO-PA

    Dear Experts,
                   Is ther any chance of Activating at least one part of the Business Content of CO-PA, like  Info Objects and key figures in the BI Content, berore replicating the CO-PA Data source?
    As the structure of the info cube should correspond to that of the related  operating concern, But BI
    donot support predefined Business content for any operating concern.
                Experts kindly sugest in this point of view. And also kindly provide live senario's with CO-PA

    If i got your question properly
    If you are talking about any operating concern BC Data sources , we dont have any BC Ds for COPA operating concern

  • 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

  • Data source enhancement. for COPA

  • COPA Data Source: possible to enhance using exit?

    Hi BI experts,
    I got a question about if it is possible to enhance COPA data source by using user exit (just like the way to enahance other data sources in the business content).
    The background:
    I have to include several new fields in COPA data source. Since COPA data source is generated (not a data source from business content like LIS data sources).
    My questions:
    1) Is it the recommended way to enhance the existing COPA data source using exit?
    2) or it would be better to delete the existing one and create a new one with the two additional fields?
    3) any potential issue to be expected?
    Your feedback and help is highly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Sally

    Hi
    1) Is it the recommended way to enhance the existing COPA data source using exit?
    Yes, we can enhance COPA DS via User Exit, Provided the fields should be from other different tables which are not from Segment Tables.
    2) or it would be better to delete the existing one and create a new one with the two additional fields?
    If the fields are from Segment Tables, it is always better to delete the existing one and Recreate the same
    3) any potential issue to be expected?
    Appending/Enhancing fields are always bit difficult and my lead into errors in future, based on the critical functionality we use.. But I recommend DELETE THE DS AND RECREATE WITH COPA always.Hope it helps

  • How to enhance copa data source.

    Hi,
    I have to enhance copa data source 1_co_pa300beka_o01. Actually I have to add one field vstel from VBAP table to this data source.
    Can you tell me full procedure about enhancing data source ?
    It can not be done directly. I think i have to delete and re-create data source in R3 system.
    For this i have to do all thing in KEB0 .
    Am i right?
    So please tell me full procedure to enhancing copa data source also tell me if i enhance copa data source , which type of problem can be come at BW side.
    Thanks
    Devesh Babu

    I'm not sure if we can enhance CO-PA datasources. Even if you can enhance, whenever there are changes to the Operating concern in R/3 you would have to delete and re-create the datasource. While doing this you would have to re-do the appends again. DS 2lis_11_VAITM extracts data from VBAP. Check if the datasource already brings this field. Otherwise enhance it. In the CO-PA dataflow lookup the DSO which has VBAP data from the datasource and get the necessary field.
    Other option is to ask functional folks to add the field to the CO-PA operating concern.

  • Incoming orders in COPA not working if Sales Order blocked for Credit Check

    Hi all,
    We need to build a report showing all incoming sales order by entry date and/or change date (change of values or quantities later on). COPA allows to do this, but the problem is that COPA line item table is only updated if the sales order is released from credit check (VKM3). I am looking for a solution to be able to record sales orders in COPA even if they are still blocked for credit check. By doing that we will be able to report all sales orders entered from COPA and provide basis for commissions calculation to the business.
    I have investigated possible COPA enhancements like COPA0005 but it doesn't seem to be used at the time of sales order save.
    Thanks.

    Hello ,
    Thanks for the reply
    As you said , the credit check in the service order is information message "Credit check (maximum percentage for ope
    exceeded)" .
    If you enter and come out this message then one more message will come , i.e., "The business transaction can not be carried out" detail message -  System status CNOK is active (ORD XXXXXXX).
    with the above message , system will not allow to do the Service order release.
    In this particular case , we have done the VKM1 for the sales order to unblock the order from credit check . But again system is checking the credit check at service order (created w.r.t sales order) . we are not able to control this .
    we also suggested the solution to the customer , saying removal of credit check for service orders . But customer requires credit check to happen at both the documents.

  • Billing document to COPA partially

    I would like to make some billing documents generating FI and COPA document, and some would generate FI document only.
    Does anyone know
    1) Is it possible in SAP by seperate different billing type or etc.
    2) how does SAP determinate to generate COPA document or not.
    Thankis in advance.
    Best
    Kyle

    Hi,
    Check SAP note # 20254, on prerequisites for value flow to CO-PA from SD.
    Cost element has to be either '11' or '12' to transfer values to CO-PA from SD. However, it is possible to stop posting to CO-PA for certain documents using CO-PA enhancements.
    Try using KE4S transaction in 'Test mode' to understand what the issue is.
    Hope this helps.

  • Credit Memo Assignment in COPA

    Dear SAP Experts,
    I am serving in electronics company.we give incentives (Discounts) to our customer. The procedure is
    we create credit memo with reference to material in SD and after checking of Memo ,credit note is posted. kindly note that these discounts are not quantity related but are incentives to increase the sales.
    Now as we create credit note, in COPA, quntity used in credit memo as reference is deducted from actual quantity sold which is not desireable as we are only using material (quntity) for refernce purposes
    please note that we have seperate number range and document types (sale order and billing type) for credit memos
    kindly advice how to exclude these transaction from COPA reporting for accurate /real results
    please reply urgently

  • Problem in COPA re-initialization - Kishore Seereddi

    Hi Kishore or other Gurus,
                   I have an issue on my COPA values. KE24 doesn't reconciled with the values on my COPA cube. My initial conclusion is that some of the records created on October 2, 2008 and posting date on September 30, 2008.
                   Is there an issue with the creation and posting date? or is there an issue on reinit because there is a reinitialization happen on October 2, 2008. I am not the one who do the reinitialization I am just supporting the issue.
                  I mentioned Kishore here because I read on the thread below that he mentioned that we need to run the delta load up to 3 times the delta load retrieved only 0 records before doing init without data transfer and full repair. What is the reason behind these?
    Re: COPA Enhancement and Reinit of Delta
                 I asked because the guy who re-init the data delete the records of the cube and then just do init without data transfer and then full repair.
                 Then the data where not synched between KE24 and COPA. The datasources is 1_COPA****.
                 Hope you can help me asap. I will assign points asap too.
    Thanks and regards,
    Raymond

    Hi,
    As i understood that the Delta need to be loaded for 1 or more time in case of LO dataextraction, by doing so we clear the delta queue in LBWQ T-code. so this will not cause problem duplication of records in our next delta extraction.
    For the CO-PA and FI the extraction method is different in compare to LO extraction. so there is no need to do the delta extraction before reinit of data.
    Please check your filters in KE24 and BW are same during reconciliation. Because selection filters are important in COPA.
    If you are looking for sales information, in KE24 check the corresponding invoice numbers created on date of intrest are available in COPA infocubes. this is one of the method.
    Regards,
    Vishwa.
