Could u please answer my question for filling the setup tables in SAP ECC purchasing the following error encountered..

Enter rate  / USD rate type M for 00.00.0000 in the system settings
Message no. SG105
Diagnosis
For the conversion of an amount into another currency, an entry is missing in the currency conversion table.
Procedure
Add the missing entry in the currency conversion table.
Execute function
You can then continue to process the commercial transaction

Hi karim,
While posting thread here, please use proper headline instead of general sentence.
Issue: seems like some exchange rates issue at ecc side.
Seek your FI or functional team to maintain proper USD exchange rates/rate type For M.
Later you can try to fill set up tables.
Once FI team done exchange rates at ecc side, do transfer global setting to bw side.
Thanks

  • Ways to reduce downtime for filling up setup table

    Hi Experts,
    Can anyone tell me the step by step process so that i can reduce downtime for filling up setup tables?
    I know that setup tables can be filled by considering sales document numbers....but the further steps are not clear with me...........specially with data loadin till PSA and then to ODS/Cube
    So plz throw some light on this.......
    Regards,
    Vaishnavi.

    Hi,
    You will need to fill the set up tables in 'no postings period'. In other words when no trasnactions are posted for that area in R/3 otherwise those records will not come to BW. Discuss this with end user and decide. Weekends are a general choice for this activity.
    You can run them after business hours so that there wont be any transactions, or in the night times or you can do it on week ends so that there is no need to take down time.
    Fill the setup tables with already closed values and then fill up again with open values.This will reduce the down time.
    Initialize  closed periods first in which users wont enter data ( for example in 2007 or 2006), this initializations can be done while users are working. Then the initialize last period at night/weekends.holidays etc.
    If you know documents that are in closed periods, and you are sure that these documents can no longer be changed, you can only fill the SetUp tables for these documents or only for these periods, by continuing to post in open periods. You then initialize only for these intervals, delete the setup table, and only then do you fill the setup table with the rest of the documents  this procedure can drastically reduce the downtimes of your system.
    However, there is a risk that user exits (and in LIS, formulas and conditions) can be used to retrieve documents that are in periods that are already "closed periods".
    One more thing what you need to bear in mind is, to check if there are any Scheduled jobs which are updating the transaction tables, which would definitely cause Data Reconciliation Issues.
    Try Early Delta Initialization
    With early delta initialization, you have the option of writing the data into the delta queue or into the delta tables for the application during the initialization request in the source system. This means that you are able to execute the initialization of the delta process (the init request), without having to stop the posting of data in the source system. The option of executing an early delta initialization is only available if the DataSource extractor called in the source system with this data request supports this.
    Extractors that support early delta initialization are delivered with Plug-Ins as of Plug-In (-A) 2002.1.
    You cannot run an initialization simulation together with an early delta initialization.
    Hope this link may make you clear about Early Delta Initialization

  • Could you please answer this questions. experts

    what is the use of cell editor?
    what are the sequence of operations carried out when transpoting object?
    why we use navigational attributes ?please elaborate

    hi..
    navigational attrib:
    From a system performance point of view, you should model an object on a characteristic rather than on a navigation attribute. The reasons for this are as follows:
    ·        In the enhanced star schema of an InfoCube, navigation attributes lie one join further out than characteristics. This means that a query with a navigation attribute has to run an additional join (compared with a query with the same object as a characteristic) in order to arrive at the values. This is also true for ODS objects.
    ·        For the same reason, in some situations, restrictions for particular values in the navigation attribute (values that have been defined in the query) are not taken into account by the database optimizer when run schedules are created. This can result in inefficient run schedules, particularly if the restrictions are very selective. In most cases, you can solve this problem by indexing the navigation attribute in the corresponding master data tables (see below.)
    ·        If a navigation attribute is used in an aggregate, this aggregate has to be adjusted using a change run as soon as new values are loaded for the navigation attribute (when master data for the characteristic belonging to the navigation attribute is loaded.) This change run is usually one of the processes that are critical to the system performance of a production BW system. This is why, by avoiding using navigation attributes or not using navigation attributes in aggregates, you can improve the performance of this process. On the other hand, not using navigation attributes in aggregates can lead to poor query response times. The data modeler needs to find the right balance.
    BEx Cell Editor: In queries with two structures, you can now reference cells at the intersections of rows and columns.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
    Apple - iPod Repair price
    A third-party place like maybe less. Google for one near you.
    Replace the screen yourself

    It has sources for the parts. You can just Google for screens too.

  • Satus bar, please answer this question. thanks

    Which of the following is not seen by the user normally in the status bar of the
    SAP screen
    a. client number/id
    b. session number
    c. data server name/id
    d. user id/name
    e. information, error, and warming messages

    " then why have the £2.99 apps not changed prices? "
    The app developers and Apple can choose to price their product however they like.  Reasons could be market conditions, costs ( legal, taxes, structure, licensing,etc), simple profit strategy, market positioning, etc.  They could just decide that they need more profit.  All businesses have this freedom and exercise it.
    "Looks to me as if I'm getting ripped off. "
    Not any more that with any other product or service you buy.  Everyone prices their product/service as they see fit.  the consumer can then deice to purchase or not.
    "Can you guys at Apple please answer this question? "
    No.  Apple will not respond to you here at all.  This is a user forum.
    They certainly will not explain their pricing strategy to your in any case, just as most any other company does not.

    MAXLOGFILES 5
    MAXLOGMEMBERS 5
    MAXDATAFILES 20
    MAXLOGHISTORY 100
    Referring to the code segment above, how do you change the MAX parameters shown?
    They can be changed using an ALTER SYSTEM command, but the database must be in the NOMOUNT state.
    The MAX parameters cannot be changed without exporting the entire database, re-creating it, and importing.
    They can be changed using an ALTER SYSTEM command while the database is open.
    They can be changed in the init.ora file, but the database must be restarted for the values to take effect.
    They cannot be changed unless you re-create your control file
    Q You need to change the archivelog mode of an Oracle database.
    Referring to the scenario above, what steps do you take before actually changing the archivelog mode?
    Execute the archive log list command
    Start up the instance and mount the database but do not open it.
    Start up the instance and mount and open the database in restricted mode.
    Kill all user sessions to ensure that there is no database activity that might trigger redolog activity.
    Take all tablespaces offline
    Q You are experiencing performance problems due to network traffic. One way to tune this is by setting the SDU size.
    Referring to the scenario above, why do you change the SDU size?
    A high-speed network is available where the data transmission effect is negligible.
    The application can be tuned to account for the delays.
    The requests to the database return small amounts of data as in an OLTP system.
    The data coming back from the server are fragmented into several packets.
    A large number of users are logged on concurrently to the system.
    Q When interpreting statistics from the v$sysstat, what factor do you need to keep in mind that can skew your statistics?
    Choice 1 The statistics are static and must be updated by running the analyze command to include the most recent activity.
    Choice 2 The statistics are only valid as a point in time snapshot of activity.
    Choice 3 The statistics gathered by v$sysstat include database startup activities and database activity that initially populates the database buffer cache and shared pool.
    Choice 4 The statistics do not include administrative users.
    Choice 5 The statistics gathered are based on individual sessions, so you must interpret them based on the activity and application in which the user was involved at the time you pull the statistics.
