Data sources for set hierarchies

Can some one explain what this is?
i went through some documenation but didnt help.
Can someone help
THankyou

Hi,
Would you like to know what are set hirarchies or how to load them into BW ?
Example of set hierarchies are Cost Center, Profit Center or Cost Element hierarchy and there are standard extractors for them.
If you would like to extract set hierarchy which doesn't have standard DataSource you can create your own extractor. To do that you can use FM: G_SET*.

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.

Error while creating Data Source for master data attributes

Hi BI Experts,
Well its been some time for me that I have been part of Extraction in BI.I primarily handled reporting in my last assignments.
I was trying extraction with flat files in SAP BI 7(new to sap bi 7 but very much familiar with BW3.5) but failed in the activity during master data attributes and text upload in infoobject (say IOSP_Mat).
Here is the procedure that I did after creation of characteristic IOSP_Mat.I created a source system for flat file followed by data source for Master data attributes, i selected all the parameters correctly.i.e. csv file format, data seperator as ,
and other settings, now when i am trying to look at the proposed data in the next tab using Load example data.its not showing the desired result.The columns that I have maintained in Flat File is MAT_NUMBER and MAT_NAME (with say 100 data in the file)
same is the result when I am trying to load the text data too columns maintained are
(LANGUAGE MAT_NUMBER Short Description)(same 100 data).
now i used to rsa1old transaction to upload the file using 3.5 version.i created info source for master data/text/hierarchies for IOSP_Mat
now when trying to upload it using info package for master and text data,I observe its(the data) not maintained in the characteristic IOSP_Mat.
When I monitored ,I figured the data has not been even uploaded to the PSA level.
Can you BI experts tell me the answer for this.
Thanks,
Srijith

apologies to all of you for late response,
was busy with some other activities.
I don't remember the exact message,but I remember it was not loaded to even the PSA level.I will try it again and post the exact message.
Thanks again for your quick response.
Once again sorry to all of you for my late response
Thanks,

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?

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.

Problem in data sources for transaction data through flat file

Hello Friends,
While creating the data sources for transaction data through flat file, I am getting the following error "Error 'The argument '1519,05' cannot be interpreted as anumber' while assigning character to application structure" Message no. RSDS016
If any one come across this issue, please provide me the solution.
Thanks in Advance.

Hallo,
just for information.
I had the same problem.
Have changed the field type from CURR to DEC and have set external instead of internal.
Then, the import with flatfile worked fine.
Thank you.

Using MS Access as a Data Source for BW

I have used MS Excel spreadsheets and 'mainframe' databases as data sources for BW in the past.
The company I ma working with has a large MS Access database containing historical sales data (from an R/3 3.1H system) that they wish to upload into BW v3.5 for comparison purposes.
My undersatnding was that MS Access was not a valid data source for BW. Could someone point out the error of my thinking and suggest how to set up MS Access as a data source.
Thanks in anticipation

Hi Austen,
Welcome onboard!
True, as far as I know, MS Access is not supported by BW. But you can use MSSQL instead. MSSQL is supported. I think the free version of MSSQL called MSDE (Microsoft SQL Desktop Edition) is also supported (Although I have not tried it yet)
Importing MSACCESS data to a similar table in MSSQL is very easy. Just use the Data Transfer Utility bundled with MSSQL. It will bulk insert data from MSACCESS to MSSQL. Then from MSSQL, you can set up BW to connect to it and you are done...
Hope I have helped. if I did, please grant points...

Jkyle

SAP HANA as a data source for Analysis Services

I tried to use SAP's .net provider for HANA as a data source for an Analysis Services cube but to no avail.   I can connect, create a named query and preview data from the data source view designer but when SSAS actually tries to run the query,
it wraps the named query in another query and produces a syntax error.
For example, if the named query is "select * from ENTHANA.MARA",
SSAS sends a query like this "SELECT [test].* FROM (select * from ENTHANA.MARA) AS [test]" (Test is the name of the named query).
I know SSAS wraps queries and that's fine - except that brackets are not a valid way to quote an identifier in HANA. HANA uses double quotes like Oracle.
Is there any setting in SSAS that can affect this behavior?   Will HANA ever be a fully supported data source for SSAS? If so, when?

Hi David,
According to your description, you are creating a SQL Server Analysis Services project, now what you want is using SAP HANA as the data source, right?
SSAS support many type of data source. However, as you can see on the link below, SAP HANA data source was not listed on that link. So this type of data source is not supported in current version of SSAS. Microsoft will update that document when it is supported.

Data Source for reused bounded task flow

Hi,
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.4.0.
I have a project from which I exported a bounded task flow to be used in other projects.
When I include that bounded task flow in a separate project, its data source does not appear in the Databindings.cpx of the project in which it is reused.
How will the data source for the reused task flow be set in the separate project?

I have a project from which I exported a bounded task flow to be used in other projects
By that you mean that you have crated a adfLibrary from the the task flow?
When I include that bounded task flow in a separate project
By that you mean you have added the adfLib created above to the other project from the resource palette, right click and 'add to project'?
How will the data source for the reused task flow be set in the separate project?
Once you have added the project you refresh the data control and the other task flow should show up.

Data source for this data connection isn't registered for Power BI

Hi, I am getting this error when I set Schedule Data Refresh to refresh data from db. How do I register my connection to the data source? Is this a fix on SQL server or Power BI?

Thanks for your help.

I'm running into the same issue, I did configure the Gateway and then the data source in Power Bi.
When I go to the Power BI Admin Center and click on "Test Connection" it seems to be working. But when I refresh the data from Power BI it doesn't work. Now if I edit the spreadsheet in excel and refresh the data in PowerPivot then it works. So
not sure why the solution doesn't refresh from the automated service in Power BI without this useless error.
Thanks
Fabian
In case it helps this is the actual error:

Also further information I have found so far is that the Gateway is receiving the requests for the refresh and it shows the message below, so the data source is found and communication seems to be happening from server to client and back, not sure why server
doesn't seem to like the data the Gateway is sending back to server.

Data source for report

Hi guys.
Can somebody let me know how to set data source for report?
I did import "import.zip" and "bootstrp.zip".
I did run "HFPBMMAK.PRO".
I did create model connection of "HFPBM"
Best Regards,
Chul.

Chul,
You only have to import either import.zip OR the bootstrap.zip, not both.
I don't know if you have SSM 7.5 or SSM 10, this will be for 7.5
If you have followed the set-up correctly, you should be able to open the demolauncher -
http://localhost:50000/strategy/pilotworks/demolauncher.htm
Where localhost = server 50000 = port
You should open the Administrator interface of your demo and Set Scorecard Defaults. For a context make sure that the PAS Model Connection is set for the model connection you set - HFPBM.
You also need to make sure that Manage Application Groups have your user added for the context you selected.
(For 10 the application groups are managed in NetWeaver)

Bob

Doubt in Generic data sources for hierarchy & text

Hi All,
I have a couple of doubts as mentioned below.
1 . Why we canu2019t generate generic data source for hierarchy?
2. While creating Generic datasource for text there is one more option is available i.e. "Extraction from domain"
what is domian please explain .
Thanks & Regards,
Saurabh Bansal

Hi,
1.We can't maintain Hierarchies in ECC, Because the Database design of the OLTP system is based on ERM(Entity Relationship Model),i.e Tables are connected via Primary and Foriegn key relationships, Whenever we need 1: Many connection divide the data in different tables,connect them using the primary and foriegn key relationships.
2. Domain will provide the technical properties of the Field of the R/3 table.
for Eg: length,data type of the field.

Is it possible to use same data source for two info cube

Hi,
My Problem is in BW we can not have value of material at storage location level.In R/3 also value is maintained at plant level.
Then we searched and we found out one hot to doc for summarized display of stock values on storage location level.
Problem is that we have gone live in last December and we are using " 0AFMM_C02 " and it contains around 1,81,26,000 records. and according to note we have to use
"0IC_C03".
Both the cube uses same data sources for the data.So, how to get the data for "0IC_C03".
and how to delete the data of existing info cube.And is it possible to delete data selectively from the info cube.
Pls. help.
Regards,
viren.

Hi,
You can't create update rule from PSA.You can create from the infosource or from ODS or from cube to cube or ODS to ODS.
In your scenario, what you can do is create update rules from the ODS to the new cube and then transfer the data from there. Or from the Infosource create rules to the new data target and then upload the full data and then set up the delta.
Third option is to create update rules from the existing cube to the new cube and then load all the data one time. Then you can deactivate the update rules as that was needed only for 1 time data transfer.
Cheers,
Kedar
