Copy Package: Different number of members

When I do a standard copy package of two categories into one, I get a warning:
Warning: Different number of members
Is this new to OS 5? I don't remember having this issue with 4.2. Can you not copy data from two categories into one?

Even in 4.2 the standard copy packages would only support 1:1 member relationships.  We always ended up writing either a custom package or a short logic script to combine data.  If you were doing this in 4.2 and it was working, then it was something customized.

  • BPC 10 Copy Package - One to Many members

    Hi all
    The standard BPC copy package only allows you to copy data on a one to one relationship.
    Our user would like to copy a value from a specific member to several other members.
    The system prompts to says "The number of selected members in the source and destination should be the same".
    Is there an easy way to do this without diving into the world of BADI's ?
    Any help or examples would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks, Ian

  • Client copy with different number of tables.

    Hi,
    I want to do a client copy between Client '100' and Client '200'. There are 121 tables in Client 100 and 101 tables in Client 200. Is the client copy possible. If yes what are the steps.
    Another question is. Is the reverse possible ie copying of client 200 (with 101 tables) to Client 100 (with 121 tables). If yes how. And also i would like to know what will be the state of 20 tables( not available in client 100). What i mean is, will these 20 tables become empty(data erased) or will contain the data as was before the client copy.
    Regards
    Naeem

    Dear Naeem,
    Kindly let us know are you doing local client copy or remote client copy . If you are doing client copy then system is on same PS level . If you are doing local client copy just perform test run and find out the differences .If it is remote client copy ,Its better to perform client export and import .
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Aura Vs Yaourt different number of out-of-date AUR packages

    After seeing the release announcement for Aura 1.2.0 I figured I would try it out and see what I thought of it.  There are a lot of differences between the two usability wise, one of the biggest that will take some getting use to separation of Pacman repos and AUR which makes sense.  One thing that I am worried about is that Yaourt and Aura gives different number of AUR packages that are out of date.
    Yaourt says aur/foomatic-db-foo2zjs is out-of-date, but Aura states "No AUR package upgrades necessary."  Does Aura track AUR packages differently than Yaourt or is this due to something else?

    Such nonsense.... all packages should be installed/removed by pacman, regardless of the helper. Any helper that doesn't use pacman correctly should be ashamed of itself.
    I recommend you bin both of them and use cower.

  • BPC Copy Package

    Hello:
    I'm trying to make a standar Copy from one source to a multiple destination in time dimension. For example:
    Source: 2009.NA
    Destination: 2009.JAN,2009,FEB,2009.MAR
    When I Run the package, it shows no errors, but when I see the results, it only copy the values on the first value in the destination ( 2009.JAN only).
    Is it the way it works? I'm using Merge values instead of clear because I have not actived the Work Status.
    Thanks,
    Luciana

    Hi,
    The number of members mentioned in Source must be the same as in Destination. You may instead write a simple script logic to do this copy.

  • Error while using Copy Package

    Hi,
    I want to copy data from category BudgetV1 to BudgetV2,
    I have tried to use Copy Package but I always get error with
    error message "The file is empty".
    Can anyone help me with the problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Please check if you have data in category BudgetV1. This error normally occurs when there is no data in source specified in COPY package. Make sure to select appropriate members when you specify other source dimensions.
    Hope this helps.

  • Copying Packaging Spec

    When I am copying packaging spec, the fields  'Category', 'Sub-Category' & 'Group' are getting copied over, however the fields under 'Available UOM', 'UOM Conversions' and Cross Reference' are not getting copied, whether I choose to keep the copied Spec linked to the Template or not. [Both the Spec copied from and the Template used has those UOM/Cross reference fields defined] . Aren't those UOM/Cross reference fields suppose to be copied over to the new Spec?  When I create a new Spec from Template, system brings over all fields [UOM/Cross reference etc.] from Template, so I was expecting the same behavior while copying too, since I am linking to the Template during the copying process. Can someone shed some light on this issue please?

    I believe that the functional use cases are different. When you are copying from a Template, you are not copying a real existing specification - rather, you are creating a spec with values that should be there by default. These values from a template are typically not meant to be specific to one single specification, but rather to a grouping/classification of specs. Perhaps a Beverage type specification, created from a Beverage template, would have certain Available UOMs that a Sauce specification would not. Cross References on a template may be used for pack size purposes, which may also be specific to a template.
    When you copy an existing specification, the assumption is that the specification is linked to some external system(s) using the cross references - if those were copied over, you could have an possible discrepancy. Also, since you are doing a copy and not a new revision, we assumed the UOM info would be different so is is cleared out.

  • Reg:Copy package problem BPC 7.5

    Hi Experts,
                        i am using standard data manager COPY Package to copy data from one category to another .While copying i use merge functionality but it clear all data in destination category and replaces the data.not sure its BI issue or BPC issue?
    Regards,
    Vikram

    Hello,
    I know this post is old, but maybe someone is still looking.
    In order not to lose data, you need to try and restrict the dimensions in the left side of the prompt to the members that you want to change, because the copy package first removes all data from destination and then writes the new records. It considers that if you want to copy something over, then data is already present so it doesn't need the old data. The records that will be deleted are selected using the key defined in the right side.
    If you want to change a record with key ACC1+B1 to ACC1+B2, you need to specify on the left side ACC1+B1 and on the right side ACC1+B2 (obviously) and data on ACC2+B2 ACC3+B2 and ACC4+B2 will not be deleted, BUT only if this 2 fields represent your entire key.
    If the key in your BPC Model contains also other dimensions, and you do not specify a member for them (left side ANY and right side SAME), the package will first delete all data using the right key and then copy the records from the source.
    Let's say you also have the dimension TIME, so we need to copy ACC1+B1+2014.01 to ACC1+B2+2014.01, and we already have a record ACC1+B2+2014.02 present. If you set filter to ACC1+B1 on the left side and ACC1+B2 on the right side, the package will first use the right key ACC1+B2 to delete all data present (so the record ACC1+B2+2014.02 present will be removed) and then copy your data changing B1 to B2. However, if you also specify the field TIME in your filter, then the package will use the combination ACC1+B2+2014.01 in order to delete the data present in the system (at this point nothing) and then copy the data.
    Hope it helps,

  • BPC copy package doesnt consider selections

    Hi all,
    we work with BPC 7.5 Frontend- & Backendpatch 07 on NetWeaver.
    We use normaly load_infoprovider package on process chain "/CPMB/LOAD_INFOPROV_UI" to load initial data in our BPC-System. After that loading process we copy the loaded data to other dimension members; for example from "2011.JAN" into "2011.FEB". We always start these two packages with a packagelink which loads the data first and then copy it.
    One of our users told me, that he made selections in these packages (in both of it) and the package doesnt consider these selection. For exaple he gave in some selection for a specific month in the copy package of the package link and the package link didnt consider these selection and loaded the data for all month. When I look at the packagelog --> no selections are listed.
    Does anybody ever heard about such a problem with these two packages? Maybe its an issue about the package link?!?
    Thanks in advance

  • Powershell Script to Copy an Unknown number of Files in a Directory

    I need to be able to copy an unknown number of files in a folder to an FTP site.  I have the FTP components figured out and working, but am running into a problem when there is only 1 file for upload.  The folder is a queue that users manually
    copy files to, so i do not have control of how many files may be pending.  And the file names are always different.
    My script performs the following steps.
    1. Get a list of files in the directory with the a attribute.  (this prevents subfolders from being processed)
    2. Loop thru the list, copying each file.
    Here is my problem.
    no files. nothing happens. normal and expected
    2 or more files. all files upload correctly.  EXPECTED
    Filename returned from variable = "True".  File does not exist and upload fails.  ERROR
    This is what the script looks like. (There are several Write-Output statements for debugging purposes.
    $ftpUploadPath = "$ftpServer/claims/"
    $localUploadPath = "$localDir\claims\"
    $localSentPath = "$localUploadPath`Sent\"
    $listFile = "$localDir\uplist.txt"
    Write-Output "Uploading Claim files to $ftpUploadPath ..."
    #1 get list of claim files to upload
    $list = Get-ChildItem -Name $localUploadPath -Attributes a   
    Write-Output $list
    Write-Output " "
    #2 loop thru list and upload files
    if($list.Length -ne 0){
        #Write-Output "  Getting files from list"
        # download each file in the list
        foreach ($file in $list -cne "") {
            Write-Output $file
        } # end foreach file
    } #end if($list.Length)
    else {
        Write-Output "  No files for upload"
    } #end else($list.Length)
    Thanks in advance,
    Greg

    You are writing way too many lines for such a simple task. Try this:
    Get-ChildItem -Name $localUploadPath -Attributes a |
    ForEach-Object{
    Write-Host $_ -fore green
    $_
    \_(ツ)_/

  • OutlookSoft 4.2 SP3: Copy Package on DataSrc dimension

    Greetings,
    I'm trying to use Copy package to copy previous month's balances for balance sheet accounts into a open balance member of data source dimension. My data source dimension has following members: Total adjustments has two children: input and opening balance.
    I am not able to copy total adjustments ( calculated member) into next months opening balance member. I can only copy non calculated data source members. Is there a workaround?
    Thanks,
    Roman

    Here's what i found in Logic help for the CALC_EACH_PERIOD instruction.
    Example:
    *CALC_EACH_PERIOD
    *WHEN ACCOUNT
    *IS OPEN_BALANCE, MOVEMENTS
    *REC(ACCOUNT=CLOSING_BALANCE)
    *REC(ACCOUNT=OPEN_BALANCE,TIME=NEXT)
    *ENDWHEN
    The above sample logic performs a carry-forward of the closing balance of each period into the opening balance of next period.
    I think this is exactly what I need. Is the sample above assumes separate open balance and closing balance account for each GL account? For example, GL account Cash has two children: Cash_open and Cash_closing.

  • Copy Package

    Hi,
    I have following issue: I want to launch a copy package which copies dimensions of another application.
    So being in the finance application I want to launch to copy members of the Ownerhip application which has of course other dimensions (for example Ownaccount)
    Someone knows how to do this?
    Br,
    Benjamin

    Hi Benjamin,
    I think, if you're familiar with SSIS, you will have better to build a specific package for that, using back-end SQL tables called "mbrAccount" and inject the new member into "mbrOwnAccount" (via a SQL query).
    I think standard packages cannot do that.
    Hope this help.

  • Merging two separate Tables into One - different number of rows

    Hi. I have a problem. Oracle 10.2.0.4.0
    7 years ago when i was learning how to query my teacher told me that is possible to creata some kind of report where results could be combined in 1 view(report) witch in different variable could have different number of rows.
    I just remember that there is needed to use group by function and some join?
    Please help
    In link there is a sample sample view
    I need to combine Table A using D variable with Table B to become Wynik(result)
    Tables create
    CREATE TABLE "TABELA_A" ( A NUMBER,B NUMBER,C NUMBER,D NUMBER ) ;
    INSERT INTO "TABELA_A" (A, B, C, D) VALUES (123, 1, 70, 999)
    INSERT INTO "TABELA_A" (A, B, C, D) VALUES (123, 2, 80, 999)

  • Different number of rows for different columns in JTable

    hi
    I need to create a JTable with different number of rows for different columns...
    Also the rowheight should be different in each column...
    say there is a JTable with 2 columns... Col1 having 5 rows and column 2 having 2 rows...
    The rowHeight in Col2 should be an integer multiple of Rowheight in Col1
    how do I do this ??
    can anybody send me some sample code ?????
    thanx in advance

    How about nesting JTables with 1 row and many columns in a JTable with 1 column and many rows.
    Or you could leave the extra columns null/blank.
    You could use a GridBagLayout and put a panel in each group of cells and not use JTable at all.
    It would help if you were more specific about how you wanted it to appear and behave.

  • HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text

    Z10 HowDoI copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
    Help Please. It should be so simple but in the maze of approaches to contacts from the phone or home screen which ever way you get there; how do I select a phone number, copy it and paste it into a text message to another contact so that I can send it on?
    The logic of the interface is totally baffling to me most of the time. Can't there just be one contacts interface so that when you enter it from anywhere it presents the same options to edit etc. Cannot the three blobs be called up to allow a proper edit menu - copy/cut/paste/delete.
    Can the favourites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
    Can it be set up so that contact pictures do not show to save screen space?
    Any help on any of these - much appreciated.

    Hey jbee,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    How Do I copy a phone number from a contact and paste it into a text message?
    The only option would be to to select the edit option on the contact and hold your finger on the number and select the copy option on the left side panel.
    Can the favorites be held permanently in screen at the top with the rest of the contacts scrolling below them?
    This feature is currently not available.
