Data source for getting PM order cost.

Dear all,
I have created a DSO and used the data source 0PM_OM_OPA_1 - this is done to get a report which will give details of the planned and actual cost orderwise and with value category description.
I am only getting one cost when checked in the data in the target - how can i get both planned and actual cost in my report?
Experts suggestion will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
M.M

Hi,
the CO-Sources (and PM is similar there) deliver plan and actual costs in different rows separated with the characteristics 0VTYPE and 0VERSION (this one separating different versions of plan data) in your case you will get in your transactional data:
ServiceOrder   0VTYPE    SWG (i leave the rest of the keys and attributes out)
SO1000          20             15.000    for your plan date
SO1000          10             10.000    that are your actual data
so what wil happen if 0VTYPE is not a Key in your DSO is that first the plan record is updated in DSO and then the second actual record overwrites this value becaus both have the same key SO1000.
You have to define carefully what keys you use in DSO to avoid this. If you can try create a test-Cube on base of the DataSource fields and look how the data are displayed in there because a cube regards all fields as key's.

Data source for Open Sales Order Variances.

Hi Friends,
I would like to know if there is any content avaible to report on Open sales order variances at a Customer PO level , it would be really appreciated if someone can send ur feed back , I need this info quite urgent.
Thanks alot to all ,

Hi Rakesh,
You have to check the tables in R3 and then compare with the Datasources in BW.
For Examples
VBAK table in R3 for Sales Order on BW-2LIS_11_VAITM
VBRK table in R3 for Billing iin BW-2LS_13*
Check for that day how many sales order were there in VBAK table and there in BW.

Std data source for sales Order

Hii Experts,
I have one issue related to SRM data source. I want to know the standard SRM data source for the Sales Order Report for Vendor in BI.
Thanks in advance
Neha

hi Arun,
i experienced many times when we 'forget' to maintain in transaction bwa5, no delta in queue.
with transaction bwa5, check in column 'active' for your data source 0CRM_SALES_ORDER_I, if not active,
choose the data source and click button 'copy datasource' (activate icon).
following I quote the explanation from doc
BWA - BW Adapter will check changes when delta-init has been done and fill it to queue (rsa7).
CRM-Specific Extraction Using the BW Adapter
Initial upload (initial load): BW requests business data for a specific CRM object from the CRM database.
Delta upload: When the delta process has been initialized, the BW Adapter checks changes that have been made to existing objects and forwards them to a specific queue. 
Tasks of the BWAdapter 
Relevance check: Is the business document relevant for the BW upload (for example, to extract only sales orders with a specific status)?
Completeness check: Adds information from the database to those BDocs that contain changed data (network field communication).
Mapping module: Responsible for assigning the BDoc structure to the BW DataSource. The same mapping module (assignment logic shipped by SAP and customer-specific BAdI implementation) is used for both the initial upload and the delta upload. Table SMOXHEAD contains the name of the mapping module. Table SMOXRELP contains the mapping metadata.
Service API: BW component on the CRM side, which calls the object-specific extractor to retrieve data in packages. After the mapping process, the service API receives the data in extraction structure format and saves it in the BW delta queue.

Few of these are the delta datasources but simultaneously few are full uploads. Please suggest me on the same.
Thanks and Regards,
Sangini Mathur

Thanks Manjunath,
That is fine, for example I have a datasource 0CO_OM_WBS1 to 0CO_OM_WBS6 which seems to be repetitive with delta funtionalities incorporated. I want to saagrigate these...
I have master data source like "0WBS_INH_ATTR - Inheritance Data for WBS Elements" and "0WBS_ELEMT_ATTR - Work Breakdown Structure Element (WBS Element)" which one to use as I need to have those User defined fields also which is not there in wbs_attr data source but in inheritance data source, but few fields are there in wbs_attr data source but not in inheritance data source.
Thanks for the reply,
Sangini.

Generic Data Source for Hierarchies

Hi guyz,
Can any body tel how to create generic data source for hierarchies, plz give me the steps to do it.
Thanks & Regards
Veera

1. Generate the DataSource for FI-SL sets using the BW IMG (Transaction BW07).
2. FI-SL sets are not compounded in OLTP. If you want to extract FI-SL sets for a coumpound characteristic in BW, proceed as follows:
a) Select the 'BW InfoObject (characteristic) is compounded' field and enter a data element (compound information of the meta data).
b) After generating the DataSource, execute compounding in a customer exit. To do this create, a project for the SAP enhancement RSAP0001 in Transaction CMOD, and program EXIT_SAPLRSAP_004 (ZXRSAU04) as described in the attachment.
3. Execute the following steps in BW:
a) Update the meta data for the FI-SL sets in the InfoSource tree.
b) Maintain the transfer structure and transfer rules.
c) If the extracted set hierarchies contain intervals, you must allow intervals in hierarchies for the characteristic in BW. Check the hierarchy properties of the characteristic in Transaction RSD1 and set the "Intervals in hierarchies allowed"
4. With this solution you can only extract sets created in Transaction GS01 (set class 0000).
If the hierarchy list in BW for the set data source is empty, first check in the OLTP system whether set class 0000 contains suitable sets at all. To do this, start Transaction GS02 (not GS03!). Field Set class may be displayed; if this is the case, enter 0000 there. Position the cursor on field Set name and select F4. Enter the table and field name you specified in Transaction BW07 in popup "Select sets" and select "Continue (Enter)". If message GR003 "An appropriate object was not found" is displayed, the hierarchy list in BW is also empty.
5. For CO groups (set class 01xx), the following DataSources are contained in the standard delivery
·     0ABCPROCESS_0107_HIER                    Business process
·     0ACCOUNT_0109_HIER                       Account number
·     0ACTTYPE_0105_HIER                       Activity type
·     0COORDER_0103_HIER                        Order
·     0COSTCENTER_0101_HIER                    Cost center
·     0COSTELMNT_0102_HIER                     Cost element
·     0PROFIT_CTR_0106_HIER                    Profit Center
·     0STKEYFIG_0104_HIER                      Stat. key figure
On principle, sets can also be created for the DDIC fields of these objects in R/3 GS01.
From Release 4.0, this no longer makes sense since the CO groups can then be used anywhere in FI-SL.
With regard to the conversion of sets to CO groups in Release 4.0, please refer to the FI-SL-VSR Release Information for 4.0A and Notes 92029 and 51132.
6. For other set classes, no DataSources are delivered.

Standard BI Data Source for FMGLFLEXT

Hello Friends,
The standard data source for the Financials New Legder is 0FI_GL_10 General Ledger: Leading Ledger Balances, which fetches the data from the FAGLFLEXT Table using the Extract Structure FAGL_EXTSTRUCT_LEAD. However there has been a migration of the FAGL table to FMGL table. And now the FAGLFLEXT is no longer populated with any FI postings data. And the new table which is getting the update is the FMGLFLEXT Table. GL Migration from FAGL to FMGL is a standard procedure. However I am not finding any Standard Data Source to fetch the data from the FMGLFLEXT Table.
Can anybody let me know if there is any standard datasource for this or should we create a custom data source to fetch the data from FMGLFLEXT using the FMGL_EXTSTRUCT_LEAD Extract Structure.
Appreciate help in this regard.
VB

Hello,
The requirement is resolved by the following:
If you want to use your own totals table (in this scenario FMGLFLEXT) as your basis, you first have to create the corresponding extraction structure using transaction FAGLBW01. In this way, all fields of the totals table are transferred into the extraction structure. Further In the OLTP system, call up transaction FAGLBW03 and Configure the DataSource and save your settings.

Trying to change the data source for a Crystal Report.

The method below represents my best attempt to programatically change the data source of a Crystal Report. The goal is to have a routine that will update the data source for reports after they have been distributed to production servers. So far I have not been successful in saving the report back to the CMS. No exceptions are thrown, but when I view the Database Configuration of the report in the CMC nothing has changed.


Am I missing a step, or is there another way to accomplish this?


Thank you.

Justin,

Thank you for the reply. Time constraints have not allowed me to post back to this tread
till now. I will try your suggestion. My assumption is that Save the report back to the
info store refers to IInfoStore.commit(IInfoObjects).


I'm afraid that I do not understand why I don't want to change the report client document,
or why successfully exporting the report with the new login/password is not what I
want to do. Any explanation on that statement would be appreciated.


I did find a way to accomplish my goal. It involved adding the SSOKEY property to the
logon property bag. Below you'll see my revised code which modifies the report logon and
server. I have no idea what
this does, and SAP support has not been able to tell me why it works. However, what I
discovered is that if I changed the report option, Database Configuration -> When
viewing report:, in the CMS to Use same database logon as when report
is run from Prompt the user for database logon, then the
SSOKEY property had been added to the logon property bag having an empty string as its
value. This allowed me to successfullyupdate and save the modified logon back to the CMS.


So I took a chance and added code to always add the SSOKEY property with an empty string
as its value, and I could then successfully modify and save the report's logon info
and server. Again, I don't know what this means, but it has worked so far. If anyone has
some insight or comments, either are welcome. Thank you in advance.

Using an SAS2008 Cube as a data source for BI Publisher errors

Hi All,
I am trying to use a SAS 2008 cube as a data source for a report in BI Publisher. When I defined the data source under the admin section I gave it the following details:
Data Source=ntsasqa01;Provider=msolap.3;Initial Catalog=WWPR_SMG
With a username / password that has access to the cube.
When I try and test the connection the OC4J instance stops running and the test does not finish or error. If I use the data source and then setup a report and then try and view data I get an error like the one below:
/app/oracle/OracleBI/xmlp/XMLP/Admin/DataSource/msmdacc.dll ( 0509-022 Cannot load module /app/oracle/OracleBI/xmlp/XMLP/Admin/DataSource/msmdacc.dll.
0509-103 The module has an invalid magic number.)
I am not sure if the error is related to the initial issue of not being able to complete the test.
I need to find a solution though as I have to make use of MDX to access the cubes.
Please could someone give me some advice.
Thanks,
Kim.

Hi Kim
1. SAS cubes are not currently supported - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e10417.pdf. Unless SAS cubes can use the MS drivers?
2. If you try and pursue it you might check the permissions on the ddll in the error to ensure you have rights over it.
Either way you are not supported with a SAS cube so you are kinda on your own. Sorry I dont use SAS so Im not going to be much help other than stating the obvious :0)

Tim

Using Oracle BI Server as a Data Source for Third Party Tools

I have been researching how to use the Oracle BI Server as a data source for two days now. I have not yet found a solution to my problem.
We have a remote user who is pulling data from one of our Oracle databases using automated tools. This data base is essentially being replaced by Oracle Analytics. However, we do not want this user to get at the physical tables of Analytics, rather, we want the user to be able to connect to the Oracle BI Server itself, and issue Logical SQL to pull data.
Here are the requirements which I need to be fulfilled:
1) The ability for a remote user to connect to the BI Server as a data source.
2) The remote user must be able to do this on a Unix box.
3) The remote user must be able to automate the process of issuing SQL to the BI Server. (Command line interface is preferable)
4) The solution needs to be easily implementable, that is, this solution will be implemented many times over.
I found many articles explaining how to set up a Windows box to connect to the BI Server in this way. However, these articles outline how to use tools like Excel and Microsoft Query to pull data from the BI Server. Our current user is using SQLplus.
If possible, I would like the user to continue using SQLplus as the tool for connecting to and retriving information from our BI Server. I have tested using SQLplus many different ways to no avail. I have also tried using other tools, such as Oracle SQL Developer.
Is there a program out there that will fulfill the needs I have outlined above? Or, does someone know of a way to use SQLplus to connect to the Oracle BI Server as a data source? Or, is there a series of solutions which will fulfill the needs outlined above?
Edited by: user11177366 on Jun 11, 2009 11:46 AM

I agree it would be inefficient but only because you are using OBIEE for something it was not designed to do. You are basically asking for a "DB feed" and that should designed using PL/SQL, DB Links, Web Services or whatever is your entreprise standard to send data from one system to another. Using OBIEE for this seems a bad architecture decision to me.You are correct, the BI Server is not really intended to be queried like another Oracle Database remotely. However, the reason we are trying to do it this way is twofold:
1) We want to enforce data level security.
2) The BI Server has been fine tuned for high performance.
Forcing the end users to go through the BI Server rather than directly to the physical tables or other sorts of systems built on top solves both of these issues.
I think you are wrong. I don't see why SQLPlus should be able to query the BI Server. The BI Server can sit on top of many different DBs not just Oracle, even flat files etc. So you can't really expect the BI Server to able to translate all that into Oracle SQL output so you can query it using SQLPlus. The BI Server is not an Oracle RDBMS.You're right again. The BI Server isn't an Oracle RDBMS, and I have been wanting to treat it like one. From the data I have gathered SQLPlus can't query the BI Server.
However, my research has led me to realize that the BI Server supports the JDBC API. Therefore, (I should have went down this route in the first place) one can use the JDBC driver provided by Oracle (bijdbc14.jar) to interface with the BI Server. There are many programs and applications out there that support the JDBC API and let us connect to BI Server the way we want to. Furthermore, these programs are mostly platform independent, as they are mostly written in Java.
Lastly, from what I understand the NQCMD program can be installed on any platform as well (provided by Oracle). This is another option to connect to the BI Server as well.
Thanks for your help and your comments as I went through this process of discovery.
