hi activated a std cube and i see few update rules for the cube which r not active n once i try to activate it gives me error mssgs sayonf the source system is filled from the communication structure.
and all the key figures r red n gray.
can someone tell me the steps to create and activate update rules i did check the sap documention but it wasnt clear enough for me need help
Thankyou

Hi,
You need to make sure all the structures from transfer rules to datatarget is selected while you install the business content.
Please follow the link below to successfully install BC,

Where is the option "create update rule" in BW 7.3?

Hi, all.
We have updated our BI sandbox to BW 7.3. After installing cube 0PT_C01 from the BCT, I realized that infosource 0HR_PT_3 is not linked to the cube. So I was trying to manually create the update rule. But that "create update rule" option is nowhere to be found. Can you please advise?
Thanks,
Jonathan.

Hi jonathan,
you are implementing time and labour 0PT_C01.
for that we have only 2 standard data sources
1 is 0HR_PT_1
2 is 0HR_PT_2
in addition to the above data sources we can also use 0HR_PT_3 data source for the info provider 0PT_C01.
PL check the below link

DSO error while creating update rules

Hi All,
i am new to BI 7.0 , while creating update rules for datastore object , i have given the infosource name, and tried to activate it, then i got the error,
ERROR: infoobject 0recordmode is missing from the infosourse
Can any one help, points are assured for the suggestions
Thanks in advance
Peddinti

Hi,
Add 0recordmode info object to your info source and again try to create DTP, 0recordmode is requried in DSO to keep data with history.(like before image,after image,etc), by adding this you dont have any problem, at the time of creating info source itself system will prompt you that this info object is missing do you want to add here say yes.

Cannot Create Update Rule from Infosource to Cube

Hello;
I am a beginner to BI and am learning. This may be a very basic question, but I got stuck.
In the create update rule screen, I get an error message that says
Data Source (whatever the name is) not maintained. (check your entries)
Could some one help as to where I went wrong?
Thx,
Sushma
Su

Goto your InfoSource and open DataSource Structure and transfer structure. Check if the structure is correct, make the necessary changes if required and activate it. Then create update rules providing correct infosource name. Until you create /activate your transfer structure, you won't be able to create update rules.
Reward point if helps.

Problem when creating update rules

Hi Friends..
I'm actually having a problem when I'm creating update rules from my cube to my Infosource. This infosource is created by Dierct update of Master data (ZXXXX) Infoobject. the error which is popping up is ,
Data source ZMMOBJ1 not maintained (check your entries)
Message no. RSAU252
Diagnosis
The data source is not active
Can some one guide me, How I can resolve this error.??
and where the problem must have been??
Thanks alot in advance,

Hi,
Check the infosource you are using for the cube. you cant use direct update infosource.
'Direct update of master data' infosource updates into the infoobject.
you will not have update rules for this direct update.
you use update rules only when you use flexible update infosource.
hope its clear.

While creating Update rules -"Error Info source does not exist"

While creating an update rule I am getting an error that Info source doesnot exist though the inf source is active.
here is error:
No communication structure exists in version abc... A
Message no. RSAU251
Diagnosis
In order to be able to maintain the update rules an active communication structure must be available.
Procedure
This error message can have two causes.
No active communication structure exists.
Activate the communication structure in the Data Warehousing Workbench.
No communication structure exists for the InfoSource.

Hi Vasu,
as it clearly shows below message
No communication structure exists for the InfoSource.
Create a communication structure in the Data Warehousing Workbench for the InfoSource.
Create an info source first and assign it to your datasource and map the fileds in transfer rules and activate it.
Then try to create the update rules between your target and info source.
Hope this helps.

CX_RSR_X_MESSAGE when creating update rules

Hi,
I'm trying to activate SAP Demo scenario for procurement, infocube 0D_PU_C01. I have activated everything except for update rules. Activation of update rules fails with CX_RSR_X_MESSAGE short dump. When I try to create UR manually I get the same error after filling the first screen.
I'm getting pretty out of any ideas. I debuged the error, the deepest I could get was the RST_TOBJ_DERIVABLE function module, called with parameters:
I_TIMNM_FROM = '0CALDAY'
I_TIMNM_TO = '0CALMONTH'
The FM goes like this:
*... ist überhaupt eine Zeit ?
IF cl_rsr=>check_time( i_timnm_from ) EQ rs_c_false.
e_subrc = 4. RETURN.
ENDIF.
The first line with method cl_rsr=>check_time with parameter '0CALDAY' falls into short dump.
I tried to go deeper, inside the cl_rsr=>check_time method the function module RRSI_VAL_SID_SINGLE_CONVERT is called with parameters:
i_iobjnm = '0IOBJNM'
i_chavl = '0INFOPROV'
- that's where the short dump occurs. The error is quite deep and I dont't see the logic of the code. I just checked for existence of these infoobjects - 0INFOPROV is active, 0IOBJNM doesn't exist (not even business content version).
Anybody help please... Our version is SAP NetWeaver BI 7.0, latest support package SAPKW70012.
Thank you,
Marek

OK, problem solved, I had to reactivate 0IOBJNM infoobject (RSD5).

Creating a update rule

I've created an ifoobject and i need to create a rule for it in the update rule. I've addede the inforobject to my communication structure but where do I go to create a rountine for it? I went to the update rule under chars and it isn't there to create one

let me know whether you are asking about Master Data or Transaction Data.
If Master Data, how you created InfoSource, I mean, is it Direct Update or Flexible update? Because, for Direct Update there will no update rules.
If it Transaction Data, you can create update rule by right click on the Data Target.
You will have option "Create Update Rules".
Thanks

Key Figure missing in update rules

Hi All,
A Key figure is missing in Update rule of ODS & Infocube.
But it is listed in infosource ( comm. & transfer structure) of ODS.
Why it is so . Any suggestions.
infosource->ODS_>infocube.
Please help me.
Edited by: anand k on Mar 24, 2008 12:16 PM

Hi,
I will give the process that I followed (as you specified) now:
1. I deleted the Source System Assignment for the Infosource.
2. Next went to Source Systems. Right click on source system and replicate it.
3. Select the InfoSoucre and assign the Data Source.
4. Here I automatically got the Field(ZZMBGBTR).
5. I added the field in the Communication Structure. and then assigned the Transfer Rules. Next activated the InfoSource.NExt checked the InfoCube for the KeyFigure. That InfoObject ZQTY is available.
6. I activated the InfoCube. Right Click and select Create Update Rules. Still I didnt got that InfoObject.

DATA Transformation Vs Update Rules ?

Hi guys,
I have a scenerio , where I need to have data from 2 DSOs in to one combined DSO. Lets Says the 2 DSOs as DSO A and DSO B. and the Third as DSO C.
I want to get DSO C Structure as exactly as DSO A. and DSO B structure is only few fiew fields from DSO A (Key Fields are same). I have loaded the data in to DSO A and DSO B using Transformation and DTP . Now How to load DSO C data I mean combined data of DSO A and B.
1.If I create update Rules to DSO C using DSO A and DSO B. Iam not getting any data in to DSO C. (Do I need to make any settings in DSOs to update the data of A and B in to C ?).
2.If I create 2 transformations between DSO A -C and DSO B-C. I am sure I need to create DTPs to get the corresponding data. When I do that Iam getting 2 separate sets of data for DSO C. But I need data as one set from DSO A & B in to C.
Please help me ASAP and let me know if you need more information on it.
Thanks in advance

Hello Harish,
I just got confusedwith the requirement. When u r loading from 2 sources (here it is DSO A and DSO B), then obviously u will get 2 rows whne u manage your DSO C.
But, in case u r referring to data, then there should be some commonality between A, B and C, thenonly it will not come as seperate rows in your report.
Can u send the details of DSO A, B and C ?

Harish,
as i told you earlier, if the fields you are looking from DSO B is not available in DSO A, you can create transformation usign respective DSO if your Key fields are same in both DSO A and DSO B..
assume...F1, F2, F3 are key fields in both DSO A and B.
DSO A:
F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7.
DSO B:
F1, F2, F3, F8, F9.
DSO C:
F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9.
If you load data from DSO A to DSO C, it will create one record in DSO C with updation of F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7(because f1, f2, f3, f4, f5, f6, f7 only mapped).
If you load data from DSO B to DSO C, it will <b>Update</b> existing entry using Key fields for other 2 fields(which mapped from DSO B to DSO C).
Change log table of DSO C update with 2 records(i'm talking about Standard table).
write optimized works differently.
all the best.

Transporting Update Rules

Hi,
I am transporting update rules for a Cube.
The InfoSource has been generated from a DSO and created update rules to the above said Cube.
In the transports I am getting the below error.
Start of the after-import method RS_UPDR_AFTER_IMPORT for object type(s) UPDR (Activation Mode)
Update rules 46H2HBH6BRHP9R29L0XREHQP3 read in version M

The InfoCube(It is already there in Q apd P) has been locked in a different user transport as he added a field to it and not yet transported.
Is this the problem?
Thans in advance..

Hi indira,
make neccessary changes to the request if u created earlier i.e u can delete the original request or change the discrption to "Dont delete" and release it, if u unable to delete each task in that particular request.
Second step is activate all the infosources and cubes and Update rules.
Then create transport request individually i.e One for IS and One IC and another for Update rules..It would be easier to trace in case of any error.
Release the requests 4m DEV, and important thing is import these requests in Q or P in hierachiel manner i.e
1. IS
2. IC
and the Update rules request.

Error while copy of Update Rules from ODS 0SD_O03 to InfoCube 0SD_C13

Hi all,
I work on a NW04s SPS9 System I would like to simply copy Update Rules (from an ODS to an InfoCube) from the BCT to the 1:1 Z-Copies of these Objects.
To do so, I copied the InfoProviders 0SD_O03 and 0SD_C13 to Z-Versions. In SAP BCT the InfoCube is updated from the ODS. The ODS itself is updated from InfoSource.
After successfully copying the two InfoProviders as next step I tried to copy the Update Rules from the Content version Objects to the Z-Version Objects to link them.
Similar to copying update rules in 3.5 I tried
- right click on "ZSD_C13"
- choose Additional Functions - Create Update Rules"
- choose DataSource: ODS Object "ZSD_O03"
- choose Copy from: InfoCube "0SD_C13"
This result in the error "0SD_C13 is not suitable as a template for copying update rules".
Some hints that might help:
1. The very same error occurs if I try to copy the Update Rules from 0SD_O03 to 0SD_C13.
2. I also tried to copy both Update Rules (to C12 & C13) on a BW 3.5 system where it worked fine: The update rules from both Z-ODSs to both Z-Cubes were copied correctly 1:1 and without any errors.
3. In the NW04s System I was able to copy the Update Rules from the InfoSource 2LIS_11_VAITM to 0SD_O01 (as well as from 2LIS_11_VAHDR to ODS 0SD_O03). So I only cannot copy Update Rules from ODSs to InfoCubes while it is possible to copy Update Rules from InfoSources to ODSs.
4. During copy of 0SD_O03 the system warned: "InfoObject 0FISCVARNT needs to be in key for DataStore object ZSD_O03". No matter whether I move this IO to the keys of the Z-ODS, the Update Rules copy does not work.
- This warning does not show up on BW3.5 when I copy the very same ODS. Can anyone explain this?
- This warning is not displayed during the copy of ODS 0SD_O01, just for 0SD_O03.
5. Obviously during a preceding test I actually must have been able to copy the Update Rules for another copy of 0SD_C13 (as I can see the Update Rules in the SAPGUI). I stopped this first test as I was not able to do the Update Rules copy for 0SD_C12.
Yet as of today I cannot copy Update Rules this for both cubes 0SD_C13 as well as 0SD_C12. So yesterday there was no error on copying the Update Rules to InfoCube ZSD_C13, but today there is. To my knowledge nothing has been changed in the System Setup / Customizing in the mean time.
6. For both cubes ZSD_C13 as well as ZSD_C12 it is possible to copy Update Rules that map from the BCT ODS to the Z-InfoCbes. So I can copy Update Rules from 0SD_O03 to ZSD_C13 and from 0SD_O01 to ZSD_C12. This would point in the direction that the copied ODSes are the source of this behavior?
I am not sure whether this is a special NW04s behavior and how to use it correctly so the Update Rules can be copied.
Please could you help on how to copy these Update Rules in NW04s or share your experience if you had similar?
Thanks a lot,
Werner

Hi Vinod,
Check the update rules for the original cube. Are they active? It appears that they contain a formula...check this too.
Hope this helps...

"Old" update rule from ODS not working

Hi Gurus,
I need to set up the "old" fashioned update rule to load data from an ODS1 to another ODS2.
The thing is that I need to set up an update rule because I need to implement a Return Table Routine that is not supported (as far as I know) by the new Transformation/DTP.
When I select option (through the right mouse click over ODS1) "Other Options" - "Create Update Rule" it takes me out of the RSA1 and leaves me in the main menu making it impossible to create a new update rule.
The strange thing is that I have this working from and ODS to an InfoCube.....
Suggestions, a workaround??
Andrea.

Hi Jerry,
Just to confirm that this is not working. The tys_TG_1 structure only shows me the target infoprovider structure. Check that in the how to, to be able to derive employee first you need to assign eache source_filed to the result_field leaving employee blank.
I need to have in the same place, the source_field structure (source infoprovider field structure) and the result_field structure (target infoprovider structure). That is what the "old" return table gives me as in the same place I can have the communication_structure (source infoprovider field structure) with the return_table structure (target infoprovider structure).
Just to understand, in the source infoprovider I have 12 Key Figures (1 for each period) and I have to split each incoming record to 12 records. If I work only with the result_field structure tys_TG_1 and the result_package tyt_TG_1 I'm not able the see those 12 KF.
So... return table functionality is not fully supported by BW 7 as far as I know.
Any other ideas why I'm not able to create the old Update Rules from an ODS?
Regards,
Andrea.
