Data source and infoPackage needed
Hi all,
When I install some object in BI content. there are just the datasources for text have predefined infoPackage. the others data sources (for attr or hierarchy) don't have any predefined infoPackage.
so do we need to create infopackage for each attr and hierarchy?
and why they do not predefine the infoPackage for those datasources?

Hi,
Some of the datasources will not have default Infopackages for them.You can create the infopackages according to the requirement.There is no big deal for creating Infopackages.You can go ahead creating them.

Generic Data Source and InfoPackage Data Selection
Hello, I'm trying to extract data from a generic data source (composed of a view joining 4 tables) using the Data Selection Criteria in an infopackage. Sometimes the selection criteria is ignored and more data is pulled than expected. The number of selectable items in the generic data source has been reduced (in case this was an issue) and for a short time the infopackaged pulled the expected number of records. Then another change was made to the generic data source and the problem returned. In any case, the transported generic data source does not work in the target system either. I'm not sure what is causing this to happen. Any ideas??? BW 3.5.

Sue

Create two or more data sources and mapping to DSO
Hi,
I´m using SAP Netweaver BI 7.0.
If there are two or three data sources which have to be mapped to DSO which field from Data Sources has to be mapped to which field in DSO?
Is it possible to have only one DSO or should it be three DSOs because of the three Data Sources?
The thing is I have created one view out of three tables. For the view I have created one DSO. Everything worked fine. But now the requirements have changed because of currencies.
The view I have created is now mixing currencies because in the view is only one currency field, which is filled from the three tables. Two tables have different currencies and one table has one currency.
The one currency of the one table is important and should stay like it is.
I´m thinking about something like three different currency key fields in DSO which are mapped from data source. Also for every field of data source mapping with corresponding field in DSO.
Some hints? I have found articles in SDN about creating data sources and so on but they don´t help me in this matter.
Thank you in advance!Thank you guys for explaining! I´m new to SAP BW and trying to better understand.
I`ll try it also with the view. It sounds "easier".
But if I´m doing it with the 3 data sources, that means that for each currency field of the data source I will need an corresponding currency field in the DSO for mapping.
Is it possible to have 3 times the 0Currency field in the DSO and each data source currency field will be mapped to the DSO?
If that would work the 0Currency has to be contained in the key figures.
But if the 0Currency is contained in each key figure will the assignment of currency work correct?
+For example:+
Data Source1:
Turnover in Euro.
(All currency is in Euro)
Data Source2:
Profit in Dollar.
Profit in Euro.
Profit in Yen.
Profit in different currencies available.
Data Source3:
Sales in Dollar.
Sales in Euro.
Sales in Yen.
Sales in different currencies available.
For mapping from DataSources to DSO if it is possible to have 3 times 0Currency in DSO:
Data Source1 currency fiield ---> DSO 0Currency
Data Source2 currency fiield ---> DSO 0Currency
Data Source3 currency fiield ---> DSO 0Currency
Does it make sense? -
Create a ReportingServices data source and upload to a data connection library
I have installed reporting services 2012 in SharePoint 2013 integrated mode. I need to create a report data source and upload it to a data connection library using
C#.
As I know it uses the ReportingServices2010 class but I cannot explore a reporting server url.
There is a ReportingServices2010.asmx file in the 15 hive though.
Also it works fine when I manually set the data source.Hi,

Help to read a table with data source and convert time stamp
Hi Gurus,
I have a req and need to write a ABAP prog. As soon as i excute ABAP program it should ask me enter a data source name, then my ABAP prog has excute teh code, in ABAP code i have to read a table with this data source as key, sort time stamp from table and should display the data source and time stamp as output.
As follows:
Enter Data Source Name:
Then user enters : 2lis_11_vahdr
Then out put should be "Data source :" 10-15-2008.
The time stamp format in table is 20,050,126,031,520 (YYYYMMDDhhmmss). I have to display as 05-26-2005. Any help would be apprciated.
Thanks,
RamHi Jayanthi Babu Peruri,
I tried to extract YEAR, MONTH, DAY separately and using
EDIT MASK written it.
Definitely there will be some STANDARD CONVERSION ROUTINE will be there. But no idea about it.
DATA : V_TS TYPE TIMESTAMP,
V_TS_T TYPE CHAR16,
V_YYYY TYPE CHAR04,
V_MM TYPE CHAR02,
V_DD TYPE CHAR02.
START-OF-SELECTION.
GET TIME STAMP FIELD V_TS.
V_TS_T = V_TS.
CONDENSE V_TS_T.
V_YYYY = V_TS_T.
V_MM = V_TS_T+4(2).
V_DD = V_TS_T+6(2).
V_TS_T(2) = V_MM.
V_TS_T+2(2) = V_DD.
V_TS_T+4(4) = V_YYYY.
SKIP 10.
WRITE : /10 V_TS," USING EDIT MASK '____-__-________'.
/10 V_YYYY,
/10 V_MM,
/10 V_DD,
/10 V_TS_T USING EDIT MASK '__-__-__________'.
If you want DATE alone, just declare the length of V_TS_T as 10.

Excel data source and the use of add command
HI, Looking for suggestions on how to work with multiple inputs that cannot be joined directly. Here's the background.
The Report currently reads in two different Ecel files and uses 3 SQL commands to query an Oracle Database. I need to join the 5 data sources and am having issues with the 2 excel files. In one file I need to be able to derive a field based on another column in the file In order to create the join condition to the SQL commands. I'd equate this to a case statement in SQL, but how goes one do that using the 'add command' feature? What is the syntax?
Next I would need to join (left outer) the two excel files using two fields from file A (a1, a2) and 3 fields from file B (b1,b2,b3), where a1=b1 and b2 <= a2 <= b3 when rows from A exist in B. If row A does not exist in B then we still want it in the report and available to left outer join to the 3 oractab data sources.
runtime is also a concern.
Any Suggestions?hi Elena,
in this case the use of subreports is not recommended. that's because you're exporting to excel and you need data in columns across the report. subreports will not, unfortunately, give you what you need.
this would bring you back to joining the datasources. what i would recommend is looking into using 'oracle database link' to link your oracle db to excel files. here's one article as an example but you may be able to find a better one. if you have questions on this please ask them on an oracle forum as the syntax that you need will be database specific.
a lot of databases have this type of technology which allows you to create a view to other data. sql server has 'linked servers', sap hana has 'smart data access'. essentially you are creating a non-materialized view to the external data. then this view is available on the main oracle server where you established this connection. this should be a lot easier than trying to bring a bunch of command objects together off independent datasources inside of crystal.

How to make a Infocube as data source and upload data? urgent
Hi all,
I have 2 same InfoCubes, and I want to make the test InfoCube(ZCO_1T) as data source and upload data to another Cube(ZCO_1), Now I has Generated Export DataSource on ZCO_1T and create a update rule between ZCO_1T and ZCO_1. what will I do the next step? Thanks.hi delve,
once u generate datasource from test cube it acts as an data source for further upload.
now u choose update target3.x in additional functions in context menu of the test cube.
u will get an infopackage pop up with data target to the cube ZCO_1,processing to datatarget only.
selection criterion can bve selected from the first tab.
under schedule tab you can start extraction.

i added 0AMOUNT in generic data source and in rsa3 i am seeing the data ..but i am not seeing any data in target table..
what would be the causeHi,
I guess you mean the target table in BW, correct?
First replicate your DSource in BW
Open your TRules. In tab Transfer structure/Datasource locate your field in the right pane (should be greyed, not blue); move it from to the left (to the transfer structure); reactivate and reload.
You should now see the field in your PSA table.
hope this helps...

The error below makes absolutely no sense! I'm using Enterprise Core...yet I'm being told I can't use remote data sources:
w3wp!library!8!03/05/2015-19:08:48:: i INFO: Catalog SQL Server Edition = EnterpriseCore

Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database." is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.;
Really? This totally contradicts the documentation found here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.110).aspx
That article says remote connections are completely supported.
ARGH! Why does this have to be so difficult to setup?!?Hi jeffoliver1000,
According to your description, you are using Enterprise Core edition and you are prompted that you can’t use remote data sources.
In your scenario, we neither ignore your point nor be doubt with what you say. But actually we have met the case before that even though the SQL Server engine is Enterprise but the reporting services is still standard. So I would recommend you to find the
actual edition of reporting services you are using. You can find Reporting Services starting SKU in the Reporting Service logs ( default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\<instance name>\Reporting Services\LogFiles). For more information,
please refer to the similar thread below:

By the way, have you installed the other SQL Server edition before?

Create a data source and database tables using WSAD
Hi, guys:
the following is from a tutorial:
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/techjournal/0306_wosnick/wosnick.html
"To create the data source and Cloudscape database tables automatically, right click on the HelloWorldServer in the Servers view, and select the Create tables and data sources menu item. A dialog will then display showing that the data source and database tables were created successfully (Figure 5)."
I am using WSAD 5.0 trial version. I cannot find Create tables and data sources menu item if I right click on the HelloWorldServer in the Servers view. I am wondering if this is because trial version does not have this feature?

Hi Experts
Can anyone tell technical difference between data source and info soure ? Where data source will be and where will be info source .
KumarHi Kumar,
DataSources include extraction source structures and transfer structures. Data is staged in the extraction source structure and the transfer structure, and transferred into the BW system by ALE or tRFC.
An InfoSource is always a quantity of Info Object that logically belong together. The structure in which these are stored is called a communication structure.
There are basically two types of InfoSources.
InfoSources with flexible updating
Info Sources with direct updating

Data source and Extract Structure
Hi all,
I have a doubt on Data source and Extract Str,
when i used one info cube with some char and kf's
after i did extraction shall we change the extract strcuture prequently other wise better to use all the predefined extract strcuture hide in data source.
if i hide in datasource after extraction i want to use some of hide fields, so we can use it? if we can use how can we extract data for that specified hide fields to bw side.If you wont to create the genaric data source at that time
you can create cube with some char and kf.
after extraction you wont to modify the structure ? if you mofify
the structure then replicate the data source and delete the data
and upload the data from r/3 to bw.its not correct way every time modifying the
structure.if you put hide means that fields are not coming to
bw side.if put modify the hide field ,first goto rsa6 edit data source
remove the hide check box and save after come to bw replicate the data source
delete the data and load the data (if you wont full data for hide field)
if you dont load full load means only available upto data only what ever field you modify the
hide to unhide,
Maybe you are looking for
