Creation of Multiprovider

Hi,
I need to create a Multiprovider on Infocube and DSO. There are no common fields.
I need to Pick POD date against Sales Order and gross value. DSO has POD date and Sales Order. Cube has gross sales and a 'Z' field has been created for Sales Order. How can I create a Multiprovider in this scenario.
How system would know against which sales order it has to pick the POD date.
Also I want to suppress those sales order records where there is no POD date.
How can I do that?
Can anyone please help me.
Regards

Hi Shalini,
As you said there are no common field, how u'll connect them...it seems that you have sales order present in both of them, so use that. There are three options:
1. Use multiprovider and identify field accordingly and identify sales order from both, It will aggregate your data.
2. Use Infoset and join by sales order.
3. Write a routine for updating absent fields in cube.
Hope it helps...

Creation of custom Infocubes, extractors and multiprovider

Hi all,
Can somebody give me the information regarding the creation of custom Infocubes, extractors, and multiproviders. It would ne great if you could give me some examples regarding the above in SD.
Thanks,
Sekhar

We will go for the creation of custom infocubes
when the existing business content doesnot suite your requirement.
when u r using the one existing business content extractor and u need the same requirement for another cube u can create your own extractor of the same type without changning the existing one.
we will use multiproviders for reporting purpose. suppose if u are having some 3 infocubes and u want to display the fields from the 3 cubes then go for the creation of multiprovider.

Multiprovider containing non-cumulative KF and cumulative KF

I have two infocubes that I have placed in a multiprovidor. Infocube #1 contains one non-cumulative key figure and some cumulative key figures. Infocube #2 contains all cumulative key figures. When running a query against the multiprovider, all key figures (from both infocubes) are displayed except for the non-cumulative key from Infocube #1, in which case the value is blanks. Is there something I am missing?

Yes SAP has defined some Restriction for Creation of MultiProvider for Non Cummulatived Key Figures.
"<b>MultiProviders
When the reporting scenario is to be extended, use a MultiProvider as central interface between
query definition and basic InfoProviders. When another InfoProvider is added to the MultiProvider
definition, the technical name of a query based on the MultiProvider remains unchanged.
Use a MultiProvider to reduce the size of the basic InfoProviders. Advantages: parallel access to
underlying basic InfoProviders, load balancing, resource utilization, query pruning.
Make sure that your MultiProvider only retrieves data from relevant basic InfoProviders at query
runtime by
o Using constants in the design of the basic InfoProviders
o Using different key figures in the design of the basic InfoProviders
o Using characteristic 0INFOPROV when designing a query on the MultiProvider
Are you planning to use a MultiProvider? If so, you have to ensure that the characteristics you want
to report exist in all basic InfoProviders.
Do not use more than one non-cumulative InfoCube (InfoCube with at least one non-cumulative key
figure) because this could lead to incorrect query results.
Do not use calculations before aggregation on MultiProvider because this may lead to wrong query
results.
Do not combine basic InfoProviders having inhomogeneous data models in a MultiProvider. Use the
report-report interface between queries defined on the basic InfoProvider instead.
Avoid using only parts of compound characteristics in the constituent basic InfoProvider of a
MultiProvider. For more information, see SAP note 702542."</b>

Unable to find the ODS object while creating Multiprovider, Help

Hello Experts,
Iam facing problems while creating the MULTIPROVIDER.
I am unable to find the ODS in the list during initial selection of creation of Multiprovider. There are some ODS's which appear, while others don't.
Is there any selection on ODS that is preventing it from appearing in the list of ODS's.
Please help....Very Urgent

In ODS-change screen tick checkbox for 'BEx reporting' that appears under 'settings'.
then save and activate ODS..
after this the ODS will appear in the list while creating multiprovider.

Reporting from more than one infocube and also from multiple ODS

Hi all,
Someone please help me in these issues.
How can we do reporting from more than one cube ( if data in all the cubes are required, but only a few fields from each cube). And how to do the same with more than one ODS.
Thanks in advance,
Sekhar

Hi Sekahr
Can u jus create a multiprovider.
Before creating the multiprovider..Just check the Common charcterstics avilable in
all the ods based on that give the mapping ..
and then once u have completd the creation of multiprovider execute the same in
the tcode <b>Listcube</b> and then create the querys as per the user thats it...

Creation of Column view for Multiprovider failed

Dear Experts,
I'm facing an issue in TR import.
The TR failed with the below error message.
Creation of column view for XXXXX failed.
XXXXX - Multiprovider
System :BW on HANA (BW 7.4 SP06)
If there's a way to resolve this error, please let me know.
Appreciate your help.
Br, Harish

Hi,
Here's the workaround I have implemented for this issue.
Implemented the note 1955263 and made the below correction to the programSAP_RSADMIN_MAINTAIN.
Object = MPRO_CS_GEN_ERROR_IGNORE
Value = X
After the above customizations are done, TRs are imported without any issues.
For the OSS message I have raised, SAP has asked us to implement the note 2001969 to fix the issue.

Prob in multiprovider creation

Hi can any one guide me what are the steps of creating multiprovider
specially with the combination of dso and cube or combination of 2 cubes
I think that multiprovider is union connection of infoproviders but when i am creating multiprovider with dso and cube it gives me errors as all the keyfigures
and characteristic are not assigned
though i have assigned all of them
what could be the prob.
thanks
manan

Hi,
1. Create an InfoArea to which you want to assign the new MultiProvider.
2. Choose Modeling InfoProvider.
3. In the context menu of the InfoArea, choose Create MultiProvider.
4. Enter a technical name and a description.
5. Choose Create.
6. Select the InfoProvider that you want to form the MultiProvider. Choose Continue. The MultiProvider screen appears.
7. Use drag and drop to transfer the required InfoObjects into your MultiProvider. You can also transfer entire dimensions.
8. Use Identify Characteristics and Select Key Figures to make InfoObject assignments between MultiProviders and InfoProviders.
In a MultiProvider, each InfoObject in the MultiProvider must correspond to exactly one InfoObject in each of the InfoProviders involved (as long as it is available in the MultiProvider). If this mapping is not clear, you have to specify the InfoObject to which you want to assign the InfoObject in the MultiProvider.
9. Save or Activate the MultiProvider. Only active MultiProviders are available for analysis and reporting.
Warm Regards

Questions on Multiprovider and Process Chain

Hai All,
          I have two questions. One on Multiprovider and the other on Process chain.
1. Multiprovider:
          For example, I have 2 ODSs. ODS1 has Objects ORDER NUMBER, COUNTRY and PRODUCT, ODS2 has objects ORDER NUMBER, DELIVERY STATUS, CREATION DATE.
Now if I make a multiprovider on ODS1 and ODS2, then as ORDER NUMBER is common in both the ODSs, can I make a report like this:
ORDER NUMBER - DELIVERY STATUS, CREATION DATE?
         I have a problem here bacuase its not getting those details from the other ODS even though the ORDER NUMBER(value) is same. Am I making nay mistake or is it a system problem.
I beleive thats how a Multiprovider works.
2. Process chain:
                I have an END connector in my process chain that connects 3 processes and lets the following task start only after the success of all the above 3 processes.
The system is displaying the END connector seperately under each process. But the name and everything else is same. Is this a setting somewhere in the process chain?
Thank you.

Hi,
1. Those fields are in ODS2, you don't need to make a multiprovider.
2. You mean an AND connector. Maybe you need to refresh the screen. if this doesn't work, delete the three and connectors and insert a new one.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Diego

Doubt on Multiprovider.

Hi BW Experts,
I am just creating the Multiprovider.After selecting the two Cubes, I am trying to activate the Multi provider. While Activating, I am getting the error as "Assignments for Info Object has not yet been Maintained"
Currently we are using the BI7.I dont find any Check Options to maintain the Common fields.
The Error Message :
Diagnosis
The MultiProvider definition contains an InfoObject that has not been assigned to the relevant InfoProviders.
Procedure
Choose Identification and highlight the assignment for InfoObject Z_SOFTH, or remove the InfoObject from the MultiProvider.
Please help on this.
Thanks,
Jelina.

Hi,
Creation steps :
1. Go to the info area where you want the multi provider; right click and chose create multi provider.
2. Chose a technical name and also choose the info providers that you make part of this multi provider.
3. When you confirm your entries, you will get a infocube maintenance screen; on the right side, you will see the characteristics available in al the basic cubes that you choose in the first step.
4. Select the chars that you wish to be in the multiprovider and similarly for time chars, key figs, and nav attributes ( if any).
5. Choose to create dimension and you will get a system msg whether to create from any of the basic cubes.
6. Either select to create your own dimension and insert all the chars in to the approprate dimensions.
7. Go back to chars tab and there will be tab for "idendification" click that and here is where you specify which are the chars form each cube you want into the multiprovider. And likewise for the key figure.
8. Activate the multiprovider.
Hope it helps

Nav Attributes not seen during creation of RKF in Query Designer

Hi
SCENARIO
I have a Char InfoObject POSTFI[POSTFI is Navigational Attr] with 3 Navigational Attributes included in the InfoCubes.
1. ZINREPIND Reporting Indicator
2. ZFITMCD01 Statement 01 Financial Item
3. ZPCNR1 Profit Center Indicator
NOTE: All the above mentioned Nav Attr are properly set as Nav Attr and Active, Check and Rechecked.
We have 2-InfoCubes Current and Historical[both have same Structure].
A MultiProvider is build using the above 2-InfoCubes and the Char InfoObject PostFi is included in the MultiProvider.
Now I am trying to Create a Report using Query Designer and in that I have to Create a RKF[GrossSales1] and
the Condition for which is KeyFigure=FINAMT, where POSTFI_ZFITMCD01 = 5010, POSTFI_ZPCNR1= Y
PROBLEM
I can see the Nav Attr ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1 in the main Screen of the Query Designer's LeftHandSide Pane containing KeyFigures and Dimenions under Dimension Financial=> PostFi=> Nav Attr ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1.
While creating the RKF on KeyFigure FINAMT I am just able to see the InfoObject POSTFI[in its resp Dimension] in the
Display RKF GrossSales1 Screen in the Left Hand Side Pane where we see the KeyFigures and Dimensions.
But I am NOT able to see the Nav Attr's ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1 anywhere in the LHS Pane of the Display RKF GrossSales1 Screen.
Now I cant Create the RKF bcoz I cant see the 3NavAttr's of Char InfoObject PostFi it the LHS Pane and the 2-Nav Attr required for creating the RKF.
Can anyone PLEASE let me know How can I see/bring these Nav Attr ZINREPIND, ZFITMCD01, ZPCNR1 in the LHS Pane of the RKF Creation Screen to add them to make my RKF ?
Thanx in Advance

Hi
As per your explanation, below are the details
POSTFIPOSTFI --- This is navigational attribute which has below 3 objects as navigation attrs.
1. ZINREPIND Reporting Indicator
2. ZFITMCD01 Statement 01 Financial Item
3. ZPCNR1 Profit Center Indicator
first one, could you please confirm whether POSTFIPOSTFI is main info object or it is attribute of another info object.
If it is attribute of another info object, then the last attibutes(3) are called Transitive attribute(attributes attribute).
Reporting on Transitive attributes is only possible with the creation Info Sets.
If my guess is correct, then create Info Set based two info cube now create the query.
Hope it will work

Venkatesh.

Creation of Shopping cart from CPPR

Hi,
While creating shopping cart from Collective processing, we have implemented BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI for validations. Now, after this BADI, in the standard process the messages are being appended in the /SAPSRM/IF_SOA_MSG_HNDL~GET_ERROR_CODE. The creation is failing in Quality system but it is successful in Development system. Can you please tell me reason for difference in Error Handling process in both the systems.
The messages are getting cleared in Development system in BBP_PDH_MSG_INTERNAL_SAVE while in Quality system, it is not getting cleared. I found a parameter IV_METHOD in this FM and the sequence of calling this FM with IV_METHOD is differing for both. Are there any SAP notes?
In Brief,the error message from the BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI Implemention are being cleared in Development system and not getting cleared in the Quality system.
Please provide me some points to resolve this.
Thanks inadvance,
Deepthi

Hi Dennis,
I really appreciate for quick response. Please input your feedback on the below situation:
We are currently using the shopping Cart DSO along with PO Account Assignment DSO for reporting (on Multiprovider). Due to heavy load and constant change in user requirements there have been performance issues in the past. Now the end users want separate reports on Shopping Cart and PO Account Assignment. So I came with up the idea of building the Cube on top of Shopping Cart DSO and then built separate Report.
Present situation of the report:
Variable Entry:
Created on Date, Cost Centers, Internal Orders, Purchase Group, SC Created By, Goods Recipient, Requestor, Vendor
Some of the Characteristics we are using in report:
Shopping Cart Date, Shopping Cart Number, Purchase Order Number, SC Created By, SC Requestor, Goods Recipient, Purchasing Group, Controlling Area, Cost Center, Chart of Accounts, G/L Accounts, Order, Vendor, PO Line item Number, SC Item Number, SC Status, Shopping Cart Name & many custom fields pulled from the SRM system.
Please let me know for this scenario the good practice (Reporting on DSO or CUBE)
Thanks,
SAPBWI

MM - P2P process Multiprovider

Hi Gurus,
We have a requirement from MM & FI as follwos.
The ability to look at data from Shopping cart creation to invoice paid will show clearer visibility of where the issues are in the P2P process. Also indicate how long the process is taking from start to finish identifying where business improvements are required. Will provide the business with a clear picture of all aspects of spend and whether predicted or paid.
For the above requirement we were asked to build a Multi Provider using the following 3 ODS's
1.     0BBP_SC - Shopping Cart - Individual Documents
2.     0PUR_O01 - Purchase Order Items
3.     0FIAP_O03 - FIAP: Line item
We built the Multi provide, but we are not able to get the required data.
Please let me know whether I need to add other ODS or Cubes to get the required financial data for the shopping carts.
Your help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sri

Hello.
The requirement you are facing is very broad, as it sounds like your client wants a complete spend analysis. This can be done, but it's not enough to put three DSO's in a multiprovider - you will have to customize a lot more than that in order to offer all sorts of analysis... But if you "just" want a report on the time it takes from the creation of a purchase order to when the resulting invoice is paid, you can take the clearing date of the acc.doc in the AP DSO and substract the PO creation date from the PO DSO. You will have to go through the GL to match the PO number to the acc.doc.
Once you give your client this kind of analysis, they obviously want more details, fx on invoice handling. You can get some info from the workflow, but you will have to create a custom extractor for this...

OLAP cube not visible in the list during universe creation

Hi
I am trying to create universe on a BI query which is build on a multiprovider. During universe creation step 4 i need to choose the OLAP cubes, but unfortunately i didn't see the multiproivder in the list. If i see that multiprovider i can expand the tree and can find my query in it. But i don't know why the multiprovider is not in the OLAP cubes?
by the way mutliprovider is Z multiprovider which i created, not a standard one.
Do i need to change any settings for the multiprovider just like what we do for query (Allow external access)
Thanks

Yeah I did that, but during the universe creation first we need to choose the multiprovider and when we expand the multiprovider we can see all the queries in it. Here in my case i am not able to see the multiprovider in order to select query in the next step.
I have checked the external access in the query advanced options also.
Thanks
