Data storage and aggregation levels

Hi,
I want to know, in facts and dimensions, where is data stored? Is it on multiple levels of aggregation? Or it does not depend from aggregation and it is stored at the lowest level?
Thank you.

hi,
It is not stored as aggregations,the data is stored as de-normalised format and that data is picked up by BI server and process the data accordingly applying the conditions and coming to aggregations it will push down the functions applied on that to lower level.
hope it clears your doubt.

Data storage and read

Hello all,
I got a problem in data storage and read. I used the combination of "Open data storage", "Write data" and "Close data storage" to store some data as an array as shown below.
And used the inverted combination to read data as shown below:
As shown the data file is in tdm form. This works fine in my computer, both the VI and the stand alone application. However when I run the stand alone application in a target pc, the storage file can't be generated!
I don't know if it's the problem of my code or the problem of the target pc, since the target pc has tiny memory card with few drivers installed. I'm wondering if anybody could help me fix this problem. If there's other way I can store and read the file? or if I can make the target pc generate the tdm file.
Thanks!
Chao
Solved!

What error is being presented when the file isn't being generated? Is it an error with permissions? Or an error with a folder not existing? Can you manually make a file in the location where you expect the file to be generated?

DP Disaggregation and Aggregation levels

Hi all,
I have a question regarding disaggregation and aggregation levels.
KFu2019s and disaggregation setup:
KF001:
Calculation type: I (not relevant)
Disag. Key Fig.: KF000 (not relevant)
Time-Based Disaggregation: K (not relevant)
Time-Based Disag. Key Figure: (not relevant)
KF002:
Calculation type: I
Disag. Key Fig.: Keyfigure001
Time-Based Disaggregation: P
We are now interested on the KF002. KF002u2019s disaggregation is based on KF001. I am trying to copy KF001 values to KF002 with a macro that is attached to a background job. Macro doesnu2019t do anything else than copy values from KF001 to KF002.
Background job setup:
Selection:
Sales organization: 2000AB
Location: 1000EF
Product: 1 to 2000 (consists 2000 products, including products that do not belong to above location)
Excluded values:
Customer group 1: 2500AB
Aggregation level:
Sales organization
Location
Product
Customer group 1
What I try to accomplish (through background job - mass processing):
I am trying to copy values with above setup so that the most detailed level which is Customer group 2 would have values through disaggregation. I have successfully copied values to product level, location level, sales organization level but the customer group 2 level values are not as KF001u2019s. Values are right in the SUM level, but not disaggregated right to customer group 2 level.
I get right results when I choose Customer group 2 to the aggregation level but this is not something we can do as it causes way too long runtimes. What I am also interested in is that how come the disaggregation does not work properly or does it? How can I get the disaggregation work so that I only have to select the aggregation levels which are defined in the selection and get proper results through disaggregation to customer group 2 level?
Thanks in advance,
Juha

Hello Juha,
You do not need another macro, just make the above change to your original one, and the macro should work.
Your aggregation level in the job should also be OK.
Since you mentioned that the values at detailed level are not the same as key figure 1, it sounds to me that the system did a pro rata disaggregation. Do you have the key figure 2 totally cleared out before copy? Since you're using disaggregation type 'I', it only disaggregates based on another key figure when the key figure value is initial.
So my suggestion is, you can try to change the key figure's disaggregation tyep to 'P' and check if the macro works.
Or if you have to use type 'I', you should add a step in the macro before the copy step, to initialize key figure 2 first.
To initialize a key figure, just put the row in the step, and for the 'Change Mode', select 'Initialization'.
Best Regards,
Ada

Forecast, selection and aggregation level

Hi gourous,
I'm working on APO 4.1.
Forecast runs in background as following:
- Aggregation level: Sales organization / distribution channel / division / product size.
All these four characteristics are part of the characteristic combination.
- Selection ID is defined on: sales organisation / sales statut / standard - promo indicator / product size
Sales statut and standard - promo indicator are attributes of the characteristic material (sales view).
However there is forecasts on promo SKUs even if they aren't in the selection ID (standard - promo indicator as value egal to standard in the selection ID)
My question is: how is it possible? is there a conflict between the selection ID and the aggregation level?
I check the assignment of forecast profiles and there is no profil assigned on the ID selection.
Thank you for your return.
Sophie

Hi Datta,
Let me go further with my data model first.
Selection criteria:
Sales organisation = CZ01
Sales statut = active
Standard / promo = standard
Product size = A, B, C, D, E
Aggregation level:
Sales organisation
Distribution chanel
Division
Product size
What I understand of the 546079 OSS notes:
Distribution chanel and division are to be out of the aggregation level. Moreover in my case, there is only one value possible.
What I understand of the 374681 OSS notes:
The system searches for all the characteristics of the sales organisation * product size (of the aggregation level) that match the selection. At that step, APO should select only active and standard skus for CZ01 sales organisation and A, B, C, D, E product size. Afterwards the system searches for all the characteristics combinations that fit the chosen aggregation level and aggregates its values.
My question is: does APO disaggregate on the ID selection?
The characteristic combination I see in the job log are those defined on the aggregated level taking into account the sales organisation and product size restriction defined in the selection ID.
Thank you for your return.

Data Visible At Aggregated Level but not at Leaf Node Level in ASO

Hi,
I am facing an issue in Essbase Version 7. I have a BSO - ASO partition. I have 4 dimensions Customer, Accounts, Product and Time. When i try to view data across customer, time and accounts the data is visible at the leaf node level and the aggregated level. But when i include Customer in my analysis the data is visible at an aggregated level for the customer but not a the leaf node level. What could be the cause of this? I am not getting any errors during my data load in ASO as well as when i run the aggregation in ASO...
Any inputs on this issue are highly appreciated....

Without having complete information, I'll guess you are trying to look at the data in the BSO cube. I would look at the partition definition. One of two things is most likely happening
1. You only have the partition defined to look at the top level of customers
2. THe member names of lower levels of customers is not consistent betweent he two cubes and you don't map member names.
You can prove that is it a partition definition problem by doing the same retrieves from your ASO cube. If you get back data you know it is a partition definition problem. If you don't get back the proper data you have different problems. One that would not seem logical unless you had odd formulas on your ASO cube.

Filter and aggregation level in bi 7.0

hi friends,
what is aggregation level and filters option in bi 7.0 reporting when i open reporting that options are there. i observed in filter we are creating some variables.

Data storage and retrieval

I am working on a project that requires the storage and retrieval of about 70 unique values per class. There are also about 60 different instances of this class- all with 70 unique values.
For security reasons, I am reluctant to use a separate database to retrieve and store these values and have opted for Collections, using Hashmaps or Treemaps to store and retrieve. Is this the only way forward?
Have been working on Java for only 18 months so still a bit green. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks

I do need persistant variables and a database is certainly the tidiest option however, the data security required is not only to preserve the data integrity but it is also of significant commercial worth, hence the attraction of going down the hashmaps/treemaps route. The aim is to deploy the software without needing to reference an external or local database.
I'll do a bit more research into database security before scrapping the idea altogether.
Thanks

Input-ready query and aggregation level or multiprovider

Hi,
is it true that input-ready querys can only be created based on an aggregation level and not a multiprovider?
thanks.
regards
P.Rex

Hi,
Input Ready Queries can only be built on aggregation levels.
If you want to create an input ready query on a multiprovider, first create an aggreagtion level on top of this multiprovider and build your query on this aggregation level.
If you have any problems in getting the input readiness, you can always revert.

Fields in Input Ready Query and Aggregation Level

Hi All - New to IP. What if we dont include all the fields of Aggregation level in Input Ready Query.
Supose there are 4 fields in Aggregation level and we are including only two in Input Ready Query.

Hi Harry,
For a Keyfigure to be input ready, all the characteristics of the Aggregation should be filled with some values at the time of input.
The characteristics should be either in Static Filter, Dynamic Filter, Row, Column. New Selection.
If a characteristic is not there in any of the above area then it is considered to be null and query will not be input ready.

S6 IPSec Service Data Storage and WiFi Calling

Hi,
Can any other S6 owners tell me the storage size of the IPSec Service application.
Then can you tell me if you have wifi calling enabled.
I am getting the run around between EE and Samsung as I think there is a data leak in the wifi calling.
My IPSec Service application is taking up 5.16GB and there is no way to clean this other than a phone reset.
Cheers
Ian

I have the same issue. Only 1.6gb though. I heard this is some sort of memory leak and 5.1.1 should fix this issue. But being EE and a Samsung device, who knows when the update will arrive!

Data (Master Data Changes and Transaction Data) from SAP BW to SAP BPC 5.1

Hi guys
I have seen posts on this forum describing data transfers from SAP R/3 to SAP BPC. I assume the procedure for data transfers from SAP BW to SAP BPC 5.1 should be the same i.e. using SSIS packages.
However I have some unique requirements -
1. DATA AT DIFFERENT AGGREGATED LEVELS - I need data from SAP BW at different levels - Some data comes at Product level while other at Customer level and some at Project Level. The current procedure takes BW queries output in excel sheets (6 files) and then use the data manager package to load the data in SAP BPC 5.1 using appropriate transformation and conversion files. This procedure is highly manual and I am looking at using SSIS package to do this. However, because of having data at different levels, it becomes a little tricky. How can we achieve this using SSIS?
2. UPDATING MASTER DATA - I need to update the master data (dimension members) in SAP BPC 5.1 at the start of every month. The current procedure compares (in MS ACCESS) the data from the queries mentioned in 1 to the dimension members in SAP BPC 5.1 and spits a file with the new entries which needs to be manually updated in the appropriate dimensions using Admin Console. I am looking at automating this task. I cannot just replace all the contents of a dimension with the members coming from SAP BW since the dimension members contains some dummy members which are used for planning.
3. HIERARCHY CHANGES - What is the best way to capture the hierarchy changes in SAP BW into SAP BPC 5.1?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Ameya Kulkarni

Hi Ameya,
how did you solve the described problems? Can you give some hints about uploading master data and updating the hierarchy?

Customer Exit in query on aggregation level

Hi,
I try to have variables filled with a customer exit.
The coding of the customer exit is correct, this have been tested in queries on multiproviders.
Unfortunately it is not working when these variables are used on level of aggregation levels.
What I would like to achieve:
We have some planning queries on aggregation levels. Different users can plan on the same query (and aggregation level), but not for the same set of data. Therefore the query should be restricted to the authorized values. Unfortunately we can not switch to the new authorization concept (analysis authorizations) yet, but we already need this functionality very soon.
The customer exits are the only possible option. Unfortunately it seems that the customer exits are not being executed when the variables are used in queries on aggregation levels.
The variables are not ready for input and should be filled in I_STEP = 2
Is this normal? If so, is there a work around?
Thanks in advance for quick replies!
Kind regards,
Bart

Hi,
You can debug your query by putting the break-point in your exit code and execute the query in RSRT. This way you will be able to find if your customer exit is actually being called or not. If it is being called then there can be some logical problem with your code due to which the variable values are not getting populated.

Input Ready query based on aggregation level

I have an input ready query that reads data from an aggregation level, based on a multiprovider that contains a cube for planning and a cube with real data.
There are two columns of data, two of them for read-only and another for input.
I´m selecting different fiscal year/periods for each column.
The problem is that, when I select fiscal year/periods and the real data cube doesn´t contain any data for this filter, it doesn´t show me a line to input data anyway..
how do I configure the query so that it understands that eventhough I don´t have data for the selected period, I still want to be able to perform the planning?
Thanks,
Cris.

Hi Christina,
Even though there is no Data in the Real time Cube the Query must allow you to Input values. I guess the Query you have designed is not enabled for input yet.
Kindly check the following Points before proceeding.
1. In the Query properties under Planning tab, make sure the Start Query in change mode is turned On.
2. Make sure you have used all of the characteristic in the aggregation level in the Query and is restricted to single value.
3. make sure the columns are Input ready under the Planning tab in its properties
Hope this Helps.
Regards.
Shafi.

Access on aggregated levels with virtual key figures

Hi all,
I need access to the aggregated view of a BEx report within user-exit RSR00002 for processing virtual key figures. Currently I only get access to the lowest non-aggregated level.
My requirements in detail:
I get certain key-figures (250 historical values)on the lowest aggregation level - so-called folders. Then I have to aggregate this vector of values at the next hierarchy level up to the top-level, say along-side a company's business department structure. Drill-down, slice&dice should be possible. So far so good - this is done easily with standard BEx features.
Then, on each aggregation level, i.e. hierarchy node, I need to get the third lowest of the 250 aggregated values to assign this to my vkf. This is not an issue of the algorithm but of the internal data representation or access to the OLAP processor because I don't get this vector on the same aggregated level such as I could see it in my BEx report but on the lowest non-aggregated folder level.
The question is now:
a. Is data access on aggregated levels and drill-downs because of the internal representation generally not possible within this user-exit and would I have to supply the aggragation logic myself or
b. do I have overlooked something critical - did I miss the trick?
Every idea or hint is deeply welcome!!
Thanks a lot,
Michael
