So i have to delete the existing TR/UR's and trying to create the transformation, but while creating transformation fields mapping is not happend automatically. (For manul field mapping the transaction data is the time taking process)
We are using the spk 8 . Please let me know any one has faced the above problem .

Regarding Info cube and DSO

Hi,
Generally reporting will be done on Info Cube rather than DSO.
Suppose If we assign the same data source to Info Cube and DSO then both contains the same data.
Info cube have additive and aggregated functionality where DSO have the overwrite functionality .
Are we using cube for this functionality only ?
What about the Dimensions in Cube how they differ from data fields and key fields in DSO when we are developing same Bex Report on both ?
Please advice me .
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Ramnaresh.p

It is hard to compare Cube and DSO.
Both thier own usage.
1. InfoCube is always additive, while DSO supports overwrite functionality.
2. In InfoCube, combination of all the characteristic value is a Key in the Fact Table, while in ODS, you can specify your own Key Fields based on which you want to generate unique record in the DSO.
3. DSO supports many delta modes like D, R, N, X, after image, before image, while cube does not support all the modes. You can not delete the record based on the key from the cube by just loading the data. While DSO automaitcally deletes the record from active table and generates the reverse entry for Cube.
4. DSO is a flat structure and therefore, it is used to store information at detail level, while cube is used to store information at aggregated level.
So both the structures are very much different from each other. One can replace other at some places, but both the objects have thier own functionality.

Doughts on Infoset Joins with Cube and DSO in BI 7

Dear All,
I have a droughts on Infoset Joints.
I am working on a BI Query where I need to take 0Employee from Cube and Employee position time he holds in an Organization is coming form DSO, Apart for this I also have other requirement such as Address fields , Visa Status , are all coming from DSO.
I have created a Infoset for this where
1st is Cube and its 0Employee is linked to all DSO Employee and also Employee position I have linked with DSO and all are inner joints.
1>My doughty is that will this work with inner joins or I have to use other joints.
2>Is sequence of Data Target is correct
which is
1> Cube and in 2> all DSO in Parallel.
Please guide me on joints and sequence.

Compare creation of Datasources and JMS Queues : SAP vs (Weblogic/Websphere

I am used to creating JDBC Datasources and JMS Queues on Weblogic/Websphere thru their Admin applications.
Can someone compare/contrast that process to that on SAP's netweaver ( either using NWA or Visual Administrator).
Thanks

Hi Parag,
For the process of creating JDBC datasources and JMS resources @ SAP NetWeaver you can refer to the documents here on SDN and help.sap.com, and compare that process for yourself, thus not being influenced by others' biased or unbiased opinions.
For NetWeaver 04 and 04s these would be:

Deltas in cubes and dsos

hello, i have a question about delta-enabled datasources. there is a table roosource so in that table if i put in some datasources they are not data-enabled but when i go in bw i see cubes built off of those datasources bringing deltas how is it possible?

Hi,
You might be talking about the Delta DTP requests in Cube manage.
If you could check the source for this Cube, the source will be getting loaded with the full requests and this cube DTP will be bringing that Full load in the Delta Request.
Even if the Cube is loaded directly from Datasource, it picks the latest PSA request loaded, irrespective of its a Full request or Delta from SAP R/3. So this load from Datasource to Cube is Delta and has got very little to the type of Datasource.

BC SETS creation and usage for sap mm point of view

Hi All,
Need Information About BC SETS creation and usage from sap mm point of view.
Thanks in advance for sap mm forum guys.
Regards.
Parameshwar.

Hi,
Customizing settings can be collected by processes into Business Configuration Sets (BC Sets). BC Sets make Customizing more transparent by documenting and analyzing the Customizing settings. They can also be used for a group rollout, where the customizing settings are bundled by the group headquarters and passed on in a structured way to its subsidiaries.
BC Sets are provided by SAP for selected industry sectors, and customers can also create their own.
When a BC Set is created, values and combinations of values are copied from the original Customizing tables into the BC Set and can be copied into in the tables, views and view clusters in the customer system. The BC Sets are always transported into the customer system in which Customizing is performed.
Advantages of using BC Sets:
1.     Efficient group rollout.
2.     Industry sector systems are easier to create and maintain.
3.     Customizing can be performed at a business level.
4.     Change Management is quicker and safer.
5.     Upgrade is simpler.
To create BC sets follow the below step:
Choose Tools ® Customizing ® Business Configuration Sets® Maintenance in the SAP
menu, or enter the transaction code SCPR3 in the command field.
Choose Bus.Conf.Set ® Create.

Difference bet cube indexes and dso indexes

hi,
1.can any tell me the difference between cube indexes and dso indexes?
if we have aggregates on the cube it improves the performce of the query created on it
2.so why to create indexes on the cube?
for creating indexes on the dso i right click on dso and click create indexes
it is asking two options
1.unique key 2.non unique
4.what is the functionality of these two?
i will assign points if ur answers clear my questions

The BW automatically defines multiple indexes on your cubes, based on the dimensions you have defined. You do not need to create any additional indexes on your Fact tables. It can somtimes be helpful to create a secondary index on dimension tables or master data tables depending on their size and the queries. There is not BW wkbench tool to do this, it usually requires a DBA in most shops.
Secondary indexes on DSO/ODS can help some queries substantially, again, depending on the data and the queries. You can define secondary indexes on DSO/ODS from the BW workbench.
Aggregates are another tool for query performance, by summarizing the data, it can reduce the number of rows that must be read by a query. Again, it dpends on the query and the data as to how much an aggregate helps.

Creation of Add-on package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One Client

Please help me creating package for 64 bit and 32 bit SAP Business One. If Add-on executable is compiled with x86 option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 32 bit SAP Business one and if Add-on executable is compiled with Any CPU option then there is no issue of connecting Add-on with 64 bit SAP Business one. Problems are mentioned as below
1. My Add-on uses MS ACCESS connection and the connection is read using Jet OLEDB 4.0 provider. It works fine for x86 compile mode but not when compile mode is Any CPU. I searched for the issue on Google and found a solution to change MS ACCESS connection provider to ACE.OLEDB.12.0 but again ACE provider is installed according to the Office version i.e. 32 bit or 64 bit office suite. If I install 32 bit ACE provider then Add-on executable compiled with x86 version is working fine but with Any CPU option throws error as provider is not registered on current machine.
2. Secodly, our license validation activex dll is build using vb 6.0 and therefore when Add-on executable is compiled using Any CPU option, Add-on EXE cannot read from license dll. Any suggestion, how the activeX dll can be compiled whose component can be created from for X86 compiled exe and any cpu compiled exe.
Please help because we are stuck in this issue and cannot move forward.
Thanks.

Hi Alejandro,
That is one solution but did your add on used ms access connection? if you used Jet oledb to connection string or ace oledb connection string? what if 32 bit office is installed and what if 64 office is installed? how did you found the office version in install script? after determining the office version how did you installed Microsoft redistributable for ace oledb (32 bit or 64 bi )?
I am sorry that I asked many questions but these are the problems where I am stuck with the addon installer?
Thanks

Fields in infocube and DSO?

Hi Experts,
                 I need some information regarding maximum number of fields in infocube and DSO?
     According to my knowledge, in Infocube - characteristics --248
                                                                         Keyfigures--233
                                                In DSO - key fields - 16
                                                              Data fields -749
             I thought dat DSO has 3 tables. maximum number of columns in a table is 255. So 255 * 3( 3tables in DSO) is 755.
                                             755(total fields)-16(key fields)= 749(data fields).
Is it correct?can anyone clarify my doubt pls?
Thanks in Advance
Jani Sk.

Hi,
       In cube , table consists of 255 columns, in which 6 are internally used by SAP,16 for dimensions and the remaining 233 are for Key figures. Each dimension key connected to 248 master data tables at max through dimension and SID tables.So, We can analyse the data at 16*248 dimensions.
ODS/DSO is a two dimensional flat structure.It consists of total 1024 columns, out of which 16 are used for Key fields and remaining 1000 are for data fields.
Thanks,
Sandeep

How to decide whether to use a cube or dso?

Hi,
If any requirment is given ,Based on what conditions we decide which data target(i.e a cube or dso) to be used ?
As of my knowledge,
1) DSO has the property of Over write option and cube have additive property.
2) DSO can have delta records and cube can not have.
Do we need consider these also?while we decide to load?
help me how to decide the data target for a particular requirment
Regards
Naresh.

Hi,
If you have to report on a data target, you should always use Cube (give us better performance).
For intermediate storage, we use DSO.
Another thing is that DSO can also be used in additive mode. Regarding Delta, cube can have delta loads and can also provide delta to another target.

BI 7.0 can we build a INFOSET on a Multi Cube and Infoobject

Hi
In BI 7.0 can we build a INFOSET on a Multi Cube and Infoobject
Thanks

Hi,
No not possible.
You can include any DataStore object, InfoCube or InfoObject of type Characteristic with Master Data in a join. A join can contain objects of the same object type, or objects of different object types. You can include individual objects in a join as many times as you want. Join conditions (equal join condition) connect the objects in a join to one another . A join condition specifies the combination of individual object records included in the results set.
