Coverting Full load to delta load

Hello All....
I have an infosource which was delta enabled, but by mistake somebody has done it Full Load.Now i dont want to teminate the job.
Can nybody tell me what will be the effect of doing full load & what should i do to convert it to DELTA load again?
Plz help...

Hi,
With a data transfer process, you can transfer data either in FULL extraction mode or in DELTA mode. In FULL mode, the entire dataset of the source is transferred to the target; in DELTA mode, only the data that was posted to the SOURCE since the LAST data transfer is transferred.
So I believe you should be fine as it would only transfer the data from change log which was LAST posted in to your changelog table of datastore.
However;this is my theory and understanding derived from SAP help,might worth taking a shot if you are in DEV or wait for some one from SAP to confirm on the same.
NOTE - Applies only if you want to MIX FULL and DELTA loads of DTP in ODS Datastore ,then activation of REQUESTS could create problem so follow below solution.
Note 967100 - P10:Activate DTP requests from full and delta DTP in DSO

Master data Full load to Delta load

HI
I have Order number (ZONDRNO)for this we are loading the Master data form BW to BW full load.
This Order number is Generi Data source
Can any one help me how to do master data Full load to Delta load.
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
Firstly you are stating that you are loading from BW to BW. How are you doing it ? Are you doing through a datamart ?
Secondly you have also told that you have created a generic datasource so from this we can deduce that you are not doing a datamart load but you are doing through a datasource.
Thirdly to achieve delta for a generic datasource you should make sure that the datasource in question here is delta enabled.
Once all these are done all you need to do is a delta init and schedule further delta loads.

Change from Full load to delta load.

Hi Gurus,
I have one ODS object which is extracting data from r/3 system.this ODS object is getting loaded on a daily basis,& it's having heavy volume data (takes almost 8 hours to load).
Now I want to change the load mode of that ODS from FULL load to Delta Load
How can I do that ?
I tried to do* Init without data transfer* from source to this ODS obejct , but while activation it's saying Full load is already loaded so no init
I want to change the load mode of that ODS object without deleting the data,as it takes lot of time to load the total data.
Is there any way to that??
Plz help.Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Kironmoy Banerjee.

RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG.
1 more question,if run that function module,will it change the existing loads in Repair full mode?
or it will load the total data again.
If you run RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG Program and give ODS name etc.. it will turn all Full loads to Repair full mode.
Steps:
1. Run that function module.
Run Program RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG
2. give ODS,data source name.
Yes
3 it will change the existing load to repair full load,
Yes
4.Init without data transfer. (i am not sure if this step is required or not.)
Yes
5.delta load.
Yes
Thanks

What is the diffrence between full load and delta load in DTP

hI ,
I am trying to load the data into CUBE from another cube using DTP ..
There are 2 DTPS ..
1: DTP with full load
2: DTP with DELTA load ..
what is the diffrence betwen thse two in DTP ...
Please can somebody help me

1: DTP with full load - will update all the requests in PSA/source to the target,
2: DTP with DELTA load - will update only new requests to the datatarget
The system doesnt distinguish new records on the basis of changed records, rather by the request. Thats the reason you have datamart status to indicate if the request has been loaded to further datatargets.

Full vs. Delta Load

Hi BI-Experts!
This is a rather general question.
Is there a recommendation when to use Full or Delta Load?
I know the functional differences but do SAP or some technical reasons say that each of them may only be used in special cases?
For example Delta Load can only be used with SAP source systems?
Best regards,
Philipp

Hi Philipp,
This is a pretty open-ended question. I will give you a few examples of when I use each ....
Delta's:
1.) If the record set is large and changes a lot daily. If you have a large initial load, let's say 2Million records and you get about 200k records per month, then you want to use a delta mechanism. There are just too many records to reload daily.
2.) If the record set is wide (many fields instead of a few), it will take less load time to run a delta than a full load.
3.) Datasource restrictions....some business content datasources don't have full loads and vice versa (some don't have deltas).
4.) Do my loads take too long? If so, I will convert full loads to delta's to shave off time here and there.
Full
1.) I gauge this mainly based on load time. If it takes 5 minutes to load 100k records, then it's going to take longer to figure out what delta's were missed (if there was a problem) than it would to just reload the dataset.
2.) Do my requirements dictate that I need to drop and reload the dataset? The best example of this would be the current year's forecast. Some companies revise the forecast and don't want to keep any previous revisions.
3.) Some data loads load a snapshot of a specific date. So, if I wanted to take a snapshot of inventory in a DSO/ODS on Monday, I would Datamart it into a Cube doing a full load for Monday's date.
Hope it helps!
Thanks,
Brian

BI7 : Change full load to delta load - things to do?

http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/profile/2007/04/30/Differencebetweenfull,intialanddeltaupdatemodes
Difference: Full load, Delta Load & INIT load in BW
Hi.
Since am not familiar with BW request clarity as to how to achieve the following :
We are on BI 7.
On our BW server, One of the Existing process chain loads data as full load daily Till date.
This schedule runs for about 4 to 6 hours during the nights. And the data seems to be growing.
And doing full load, now seems, not that meaningful for data analysis.
So we now feel we need not do a full load every day. But do only the incremental load.
How to make this effective in our existing process chains.
I went thro the 2 links above, but a few things am not clear.
What exactly needs to be done to change a full load into a delta load.
Also do not wish to have any data loss happening.
We run the schedules on a particular process chain for BW around 1 am.
Say from tomorrow I want to have the data loading as delta.
What exactly are the steps to be followed.
Precautions to be taken
So that we have the correct data load and no data is lost - while doing this.
Things to do am not clear :
do initialization with data transfer / or without data tranfer ?
The make it delta?
So that from tomorrow all data loading becomes delta ?
Or
since in our scenario,
daily basis it is full load.
Just make it delta load,
so that whatever changes will run in the next days schedule.
What all things are to be done stepwise.
if anyone could advise.
That would be very helpful.
Also any documentation which explains all these if someone could share the link please ?
Many thanks

Hi,
Kindly look at following links as well
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/44/9821620553053de10000000a1553f6/content.htm
Generic Delta
If a field exists in the extract structure of a DataSource that contains values which increase monotonously over time, you can define delta capability for this DataSource. If such a delta-relevant field exists in the extract structure, such as a timestamp, the system determines the data volume transferred in the delta method by comparing the maximum value transferred with the last load with the amount of data that has since entered the system. Only the data that has newly arrived is transferred.
To get the delta, generic delta management translates the update mode into a selection criterion. The selection of the request is enhanced with an interval for the delta-relevant field. The lower limit of the interval is known from the previous extraction. The upper limit is taken from the current value, such as the timestamp or the time of extraction. You can use security intervals to ensure that all data is taken into consideration in the extractions. After the data request was transferred to the extractor, and the data was extracted, the extractor then informs generic delta management that the pointer can be set to the upper limit of the previously returned interval.
The delta for generic DataSources cannot be used with a BW system release prior to 3.0. In older SAP BW releases, the system does not replicate DataSources for master data and texts that were made delta-enabled using the delta for generic DataSources.
Determining the Generic Delta for a DataSource
       1.      Choose Generic Delta.
       2.      In the subsequent dialog box, specify the delta-determining field and the type for this field.
       3.      Maintain the settings for the generic delta:
                            a.      Specify a security interval.
The purpose of a security interval is to make the system take into consideration records that appear during the extraction process but which remain unextracted (since they have yet to be saved) during the next extraction.
You have the option of adding a security interval to the upper limit/lower limit of the interval.
A security interval should only be specified for the lower limit when the delta method results in a new status for changed records, in other words, when the status is overwritten in BW. In this case, duplicate data records that could arise in such a safety interval have no affect on BW.
                            b.      Choose the delta type for the data to be extracted.
The delta type is used to determine how extracted data is interpreted in BW and which data targets in which it can be posted.
With the delta type additive delta, the record to be loaded for summarizable key figures only returns the change to the key figure. The extracted data is added in BW. DataSources with this delta type can supply both ODS objects and InfoCubes with data.
With the delta type New Status for Changed Records, every record to be loaded returns the new status for all key figures and characteristics. The values are overwritten in BW. DataSources with this delta type can write the data into ODS objects and master data tables.
       4.      Save your entries.
Delta transfer is now possible for this DataSource.
After generating the DataSource, you can see this from the marking for the field Delta Update on the DataSource: Customer Version screen.
In systems from release 4.0B, you can display the current value of the delta-relevant field in the delta queue.
Thanks and regards

Change the Full load to Delta load

Hi All,
I am loading the data form R/3 to BW with full load by using the generic data sources.
Now I need to change the full load to delta. But I get the data 2 views and one FM.
Some what I have got the solution, that is going RSO2 there generic delta will be available
If I click I will get the one wind there 3 deltas form there I took time stamp. Then I need
Select the field name.
1) Now only my problem started in that field name there is no creation
Date and last changed data, based on this we need to get the data from R/3 to BW.
2) In that 3 datasorce I used the one DS function module in this also that field name is not
available .
3) In safety interval what I need to give.
After doing all the changes in R/3 side wht are the change i need to in BW
Please help on above 3 issues.
Thanks
Edited by: kumar reddy on Oct 19, 2008 4:09 AM

Hi,
1.) based on these fields you will get delta records from r/3 to BW.
3.) safety interval :more clearly--- lower limit corresponds to last extraction
time and upper limit specifies to the current extraction time. This is regarding the date .

Full load to Delta load for 0ASSET_AFAB_Text load

Hi Experts,
Standard extractor is not enabled to change the mode to Delta.
Is it possible to change the Standard Extrator from Full to Delta. if so how we can do it?? Full load it taking long time so want to change the process to delta.
Please suggest me any other options too......
Thanks in advance,
rCm.
No Luck

Hi,
0ASSET_AFAB_TEXT Datasource will fetch the Data based on the Function Module ARBW_BIW_GET_MASTER_DATA
SAP has not provided the Delta Functionality for this Datasource,

Full Load and delta loads of HR Data using ABAP Program

Hi All,
I need to write an ABAP program that will pull some HR data from some of the infotypes.When i run it for the first time it should pull all the data for all the employees but in the subsequent runs it should run only the delta changes
for example
inital run is on 04/30 it should pull all the data for all the employees
next run 05/02 then it should pull onlly the infotypes for which there is a change between 04/30 and 05/02
Please let me know the solution
Thanks
Bala Duvvuri

Rob,
I understand that I need to AEDTM field but the problem is
during the initial load i will not have any control date stored in the z table so i will fetch all the records using the select queries on various infotypesin the if condition but the problem is i need to repeat the same queries by adding the AEDTM condition in the else condition where control date is not initial(not an initial load) so it will be a duplicacy of all the select queries.
is it a good programming style?please let me know your thoughts on this
if p_ctrl is initial " Initial load
select queries
else " subsequent runs
same select queires with AEDTM condition
endif.
Thanks

Converting Full Load - Delta load

Hi Experts,
I am trying to convert ODS from Full Load to Delta Load.
The problem is already there are full req so its not allowing me to activate delta.
I have tried running the program "RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG" which would convert full req into repair req and then I should be able to load Init/Delta.( see OSS Note 689964)
Problem is even after running the program succesfully I m getting same message and not able to activate Init.
I again tried running running the prog but now progr does nt show any req which could be converted to Repair req.
So how to proceed from here and Full load ODS -> Delta...???
All help would be appreciated and awarded by points...
Thanks in advance!!!
Sorabh

Hi Ajai,
I checked RSREQDONE; in tht Qm status of req is Green...I dont know what I shud check in this table..
Also as per my understandings loading thru reqs in PSA is another way (if the request still exist in PSA)apart from the program given.
Program shud work in any condition whether req is there in PSA or not.
Correct me if I am wrong..
but again struck ..on same issue...:)..
Thanks,

Difference between delta load and full load

HI,
i am getting confused with full load and delta load.
The scenario is as follows:
I have 4 records which i need to pass to DSO.(Standard DSO)
These are the fields and records.
IO_amount          io_QTY         0UNIT     0CURRENCY     Matnr
1519     195     EA     USD     MM01
2643.85     12     EA     USD     MM02
3580.4     10     EA     USD     MM03
6049.8     12     EA     USD     MM04
Now i need to change the record as
IO_amount          io_QTY         0UNIT     0CURRENCY     Matnr
1500     195     EA     USD     MM01
2643.85     12     EA     USD     MM02
3580.4     10     EA     USD     MM03
6049.8     22     EA     INR     MM04
When i passed it as full and delta load but could not make out any difference..
I can see the data only in active data and change log tables.how can i see that in DSO?
please help out,Points for sure.

Hello Susmitha,
You are right & your view of data is also correct
But only thing here is ODS which you are using mait have Overwright option in its Update Rules /Transformations
Here Q is
Which fields are in KeyFields in DSO Design
If
this Field Values are same in Delta are Full Upload
it will overwrite the records in ODS / DSO
If not
it will add the records to DSO /ODS
Comming to Delta & Full Loads
If you use Full always all data Present will be loaded
if you use Delta always changed & New records will be updated
This happens through Pointers Set ( Snap Shot of Previous Load )
Some tables where you can see RSOLTPSOURCE,RODELTAM etc
Try to wiew this ,Its tough to get
Thanks

Give difference between full load, delta load, repair full load

Can i run full update after delta load?? if yes tell me a scenario??Can anyone tell me the difference between all three & when to use these??
Regards,
Asish

Hi,
For Repair full load please check OSS note 689964 which is about repairing the full load by executing the program RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG.
Basically in this you provide your ODS, Data Source and Source System name and execute the program RSSM_SET_REPAIR_FULL_FLAG and hit Repair full load.
It will repair the full load.
But after this you cannot go directly for delta load which is for new added records or changed records. Before delta load do initialization without data loading and then go for delta load.
So delta load will run after init run (without data transfer) and add new added record or changed records to exisitng full upload records.
Technically you cannot go for delta load with out init load.
So, If you have already done full load, you can go for delta load after doing initializing (init load) without data loading.
Hope it helps.

Mona

Delta loading basic question

Hi guys,
since I'm learning and testing the SAP Netweaver BI 7.0 I'm loading with full upload to the targets (DSO, InfoCube).
Now I have read about loading with delta load.
As I have undetstood the delta load enables me to load only new data to the targets.
Now I'm wondering that in some forum threads people are writing that more Infopackages are neccessary if you want to load with delta.
Is it correct that more Infopackages are neccessary for delta load and why?
Is a How-to within SDN available? I couldn't find anything.
Thanks!

Hi,
To do the Delta one must load the INIT.
You can do inti in two ways
1. INIT with Datatransfer
2. INIT Without Datatransfer
The following are the general steps to load Delta
1. One IP for Init without datatransfer
2. One IP for Full Load
3. Another IP for Delta Load
You can also do
1. Create an Infopackage to do the INIT with Datatransfer(This is equivalent to INIT without Datatransfer+FULL load)
2. create another infopackage & make it delta in the update mode
Hope it is clear & helpful

Initialize Delta Load in Info Package

Hi,
I want to create 2 info packages for my load from datasource.
One with setting " Initialize Delta load with data transfer " in info package for my first load.
Second info package should be with " Delta Lad " which i am not finding in the second info package i am creating. Can you please tell me how can i get this setting as i am getting only Full or Intialize delta load only.
Regards
Syed

Make sure the following:
1) DataSource is Delta Enabled
2) An Init (or an Early Init) has already been done successfully. You should see the entry in RSA7 of the Source ERP
You should then be able to get the Delta option in the InfoPackage

Issues with Delta Loads.

Hi All,
I hope you don’t mind to provide a suggestion about the delta load of Purchase Orders.
There was a request from Procurement team and they complaint that the data is not looking right.
For example: for a given purchase order the exemption flag is displayed as ADE.
Before change:
Purchase Doc Number
Puchase Exemption flag
90002106
ADE
They want this to be displayed as:
After Change :
Purchase Doc Number
Puchase Exemption flag
90002106
So ABAPER has included the logic in ECC Functional Module to populate the Extract Structure for Data Source to display above result. But the overnight run didn’t pick up the changes to above record in BW. The loads are delta loads.
So my Question is:
· This load for the Infocube Purchase Orders is delta load. Does change to Function Module will pick up the changes to old records as well? I mean if we are doing delta load does the old records gets changed and updated in CUBE or should I delete the data from all the PSA and Infocube and run the load into CUBE to pick up the changes. Am bit worried about deleting the data from Infocube as it may have history data (because of delta load). Total records in cube are 800000 records.
· Another question does the process chain trigger the function module to load the data into Extract Structure of data source in ECC (am bit confused about this process in ECC)?
Please suggest me how can I capture those changed records?
Any help would be much appreciated. Please let me know if you need more info.
Thanks in advance
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
I am little confused from your post. You are using 2lis_02_SCL or the generic FM datasource?.
Also it looks like new custom field added in your client. I never saw any purchase exemption flag even though i am working in purchasing flow for last 2 years.
W.r.t purchasing , deletion flag will be there which will come from EKPO and have the values S or L ( Deleted or Blocked).
You can block or delete a PO aslong as GR was not happened. Other wise you can do it. So use the EKPO-LOEKZ for your use.

Rajesh
