Date From In infobject query BW

Hi,
I have a time dependant attribute, I want to show in my query (from the infobject) the date_from attributes, is this possible?
Or I have to create other time dependant attribute - date??
Thanks
Victoria

Hi Reddy
It is still not possible. You can not get the Date to and Date from fields in Attribute list for time dependent masterdatas.
And thus can not drag it to use in Queries.

Error while trying to retrieve data from BW BEx query

The following error is coming while trying to retrieve data from BW BEx query (on ODS) when the Characters are more than 50.
In BEx report there is a limitation but is it also a limitation in Webi report.
Is there any other solution for this scenario where it is possible to retrieve more than 50 Characters?
A database error occured. The database error text is: The MDX query SELECT { [Measures].[3OD1RJNV2ZXI7XOC4CY9VXLZI], [Measures].[3P71KBWTVNGY9JTZP9FTP6RZ4], [Measures].[3OEAEUW2WTYJRE2TOD6IOFJF4] } ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( CROSSJOIN( [ZHOST_ID2].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS, [ZHOST_ID3].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ), [ZHOST_ID1].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ), [ZREVENDDT__0CALDAY].[LEVEL01].MEMBERS ) ........................................................ failed to execute with the error Invalid MDX command with UNSUPPORTED: > 50 CHARACT..

Hi,
That warning / error message will be coming from the MDX interface on the BW server. It does not originate from BOBJ.
This question would be better asked to support component BW-BEX-OT-MDX

How to store data from a complex query and only fresh hourly or daily?

We have a report which runs quite slow (1-2 minutes) because the query is quite complicate, so we would like to run this query daily only and store in a table so for those procedures that need to use this complex query as a subquery, can just join to this table directly to get results.
However, I am not sure what kind of object I should use to store data for this complex query. Is data in global temp table only persist within transaction? I need something that can persist the data and be access by procedures.
Any suggestions are welcome,
Cheers

Thank you for your reply. I looked at the materialized view earlier on, but have some difficulties to use it. So I have some questions here:
1.The complex query is not a sum or aggregate functions, it just need to get data from different tables based on different conditions, in this case is it still appropriate to use meterialized view?
2.If it is, I created one, but how to use it in my procedure? From the articles I read, it seems I can't just query from this view directly. So do I need to keep the complex query in my procedure and how the procedure will use the meterialized view instead?
3. I also put the complex query in a normal view, then create a materialized view for this normal view (I expect the data from the complex query will be cache here), then in the procedure I just select * from my_NormalView, but it takes the same time to run even when I set the QUERY_REWRITE_ENABLED to true in the alter session. So I am not sure what else I need to do to make sure the procedure use the materialized view instead of the normal view. Can I query from the Materialized View directly?
Below in the code I copied from one of the article to create the materialized view based on my normal view:
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW HK3ControlDB.MW_RIRating
PCTFREE 5 PCTUSED 60
TABLESPACE "USERS"
STORAGE (INITIAL 50K NEXT 50K)
USING INDEX STORAGE (INITIAL 25K NEXT 25K)
REFRESH START WITH ROUND(SYSDATE + 1) + 11/24
NEXT NEXT_DAY(TRUNC(SYSDATE), 'MONDAY') + 15/24
enable query rewrite
AS SELECT * FROM HK3ControlDB.VW_RIRating;

Multiple reads of the same data from Multiprovider by Query (Bex)

Hello, guys!
We're having issue with performance of a query built on Multiprivider. During our investigation, we've found out that within one run of a Query, it several times refers to InfoProvider for the same data (see image attached).
Do you have ideas what can be a reason for multiply reads of the same data from Multipvovider?

Hello Nikita,
By "copy of a query" i meant something like this as shown below :
*Kindly click on the screenshot for a better view.
1) See the highlighted portions below in the screenshot . See Query 2 highlighted and name of the BEx query highlighted.
2) See the highlighted portions . See Query 3 highlighted and name of the BEx query highlighted.
As you can see from the above screenshots i have used the same BEx query 2 times by the name of Query 2 & Query 3 . Infact i have not attached the complete screenhsot . In that i have used it 6 times.
I have to analyze this a bit in detail but what i am guessing is that when this WEBi is called the single BEx is also called multiple times. And hence it hits the Info Provider multiple times resulting in a decreased performance.
But this does not mean that this is wrong approach. There are various areas where you can improve for example :
1) Either improve your BEx query if possible or use aggregates or something like that .
2) Use the Query stripping setting in WEBi so that unused dimensions and measures are not pulled resulting in an improved performance. It's switched on by default.
Thanks!!

Retrieving data from a BW Query runs endlessly in Crystal

Hi,
I have installed Crystal Reports 2008 SP2 with SAP BO Integration Kit 3.1. When I create a new file from a SAP BW 7 Query I everything works fine (field selction etc) until I run it and try to extract data from the database. I can enter the parameters and enter the login data for the BW connection. After that I can see the entry "retrieving data from the database" in the status bar and that's it. The screen kind of freezes and I don't get any result. I can wait for 2 hrs no result. In the end I cannot even get back to screen. I have to close it through taskmanager.
I have tested the query with transaction RSRT and the same parameter value I chose in Crystal reports and there I get a result. Therefore the entry values should be fine.
Did I install anything wrong, did somebody encounter this problem as well?
Thanks a lot in advance for any help provided
Kind Regards,
Melanie

Hi,
I entered the SQL statement in transaction MDXTest but it is running since 7 minutes.
>> Transaction MDXTEST has an option to generate a test sequence and is not there to test SQL statements. You need to enter a valid MDX statement.
Function module "/Crystal/MDX_GET_STREAM_INFO" not found
>> then I would suggest you make sure that all the Transports from the SAP Integration Kit have been properly imported - see the Installation Guide for the SAP Integration Kit for details.

Spool out data from tables by querying user_tables

I want to write a script to export data from tables that I query out of user_tables.
like
for all the tables returned by this query
select table_name from user_tables where table_name like '%LK';
I want to run a select * from on them and print the data out.
Is it possible to do this?
Thanks,

I have a nice filedump routine that takes any query provided and produces a flat file. You have options regarding headers, separators, trailing separators, append vs. write mode, etc. Simple to use and works great. I built it into a mail routine that I worked on. We use it regularly in our production environment without issue.

The function of IP: write back data from layout or query into DSO?

hi,guys,
I am very wondering that if BI-IP has the function of adding or modifying data directly into DSO ?which like the function of BPS layout writing data back to infocube? If it could ,how?
Alough I don't think it's possible,I hope someone could give me a certain answer.
Thanks a lot,
johnson.

Hi,
Please search the forum before posting - this question has been asked quite a few times earlier.
IP can read data from multiple types of infoproviders (including DSO) but it can write back data only to real-time infocubes.

Stuck trying to sort data from CONNECT BY query

Hi,

How to copy data from a Input query to real time Infocube

Hi All, I need some help on IP related stuff. The details are as below:
I am using two real time infocubes and one Multiprovider on them.
First Infocube u2018PRODUCTu2019 with the following Objects:
Product Group ,Product,Region ,Fiscal Year , Fiscal Year Varient ,0currency
Gross Sales
Second Infocube u2018C_PRODUCT u2018 with the following Objects:
Product Group ,Product,Region ,Fiscal Year , Fiscal Year Varient ,0currency
Gross Sales and Forecast Sales
( u2018Forecast Salesu2019 in the extra object in the second Infocube. Remaining objects are same in the both the cubes)
First Infocube u2018Productu2019 has data but the second cube does not have any data.
I have created a Multiprovider ZMulti and in that I have included these two cubes. On this Multi Provider, I have created a Aggrigation Level(The details of the aggregation level is provided in the next page).
On this Aggrigation level I have built a Input Query by which I run the report.
(In the Rows area, I have taken Product Group, Product, Region and Fical year.
In the Key Figure section, I have taken Gross Sales and Forecast Sales( which is part of the second Infocube C_Product). These two Key Figures are made Input as Input ready. And the Query is Input ready query. In the Filter, I have taken Fiscal Year Variant. )
Data available in the first cube and no data currently in the second cube. Now executed the report and report displayed information from the first cube.
EX:
Product     Product     Region          Year     Gross Sales     Forecast Sales
Group
PG01           Beer           North           2008           10000           u2026u2026u2026
PG01           Beer          South          2008          20000           u2026u2026u2026
PG01          Beer          East          2008          15000           u2026u2026u2026
The second column is empty and there is no data for the Forecast sales Key Figure in the column.
Things look OK till the above.
Now based on the Gross Sales, I am entering forecast Sales values and I need to save the entire record to the second cube.
For this in the report, I have given the Forecast sales values in the second column and right clicked the mouse and form the menu which I got, selected the u2018SAVEu2019 Option to save the data. For some time, I can see u2018Processingu2019 message and later values at u2018Forecast Salesu2019 are disappearing.
Data is not saving to the cube second cube.
====================================================
Am I missing any thing?
In the Query, Do I need to provide InfoProvider and restrict it to specific value?
In the query, Do I need to include, 0currency object?
Could you please guide me on this?
=============================================
Details of the Aggrigation level.
            I have created an Aggrigation Level ZAL_Prod on MultiProvider.
            Selected all the objects and activated.
            In the Filter, I have taken 0Fiscal Year Variant and saved it.

Restrict Forecast sales to the Plan cube in the Query.
that should fix it.

Why some columns are not read into Power Pivot when reading data from a SQL query

I have this SQL query that I want to use to read data to PowerPivot from:
SELECT Score.FieldCount as fieldcount, Score.Record.GetAt(0) as predicted_gender, Score.Record.GetAt(1) as probability_of_gender, Score.Record.GetAt(2)
as probability_of_m,
Score.Record.GetAt(3) as probability_of_f, Score.Record.GetAt(4) as customerkey
FROM
SELECT * FROM dbo.myCLR1(
dbo.MyCLR2('c:\fILES\MLSM.xml'),
'SELECT * FROM [dbo].[Customer]') Input
) Score
After I click 'Finish' in "Table Import Wizard", I can only get 1 column (FieldCount) in Power Pivot window. Why don't I get the other 4 columns? If I save the result to a table I do get all columns but my goal is to dynamically present the result
so that's not an option. Can anyone shed some light?
Thanks,
Chu

Utility to export selected data from an SQL Query?

I would like to know if there is any utility available in Oracle that I could use to export data selected on the basis of a query? Our requirement is to export the selected data to .dat file.
This should be besides imp or exp built-in utilities available in Oracle.

Hello,
you can spool the results of your query to file.
eks
spool c:\....
select * from emp;
spool off;
If you have a tool called Toad, you kan click on the results and then you can save the data in different format.

SuPM - Data from SAP BW Query(Automatic) and Manual not displayed in KPI

Dear Forum,
I am also, currently working on a project implementing BO SuPM Version 1.0. Landscape is ECC -> BI -> SuPM dashboards.
I have created a KPI in SuPM dashboard.
Case 1 : Automatic data collection - This KPI is marked for Automatic data collection. So, maintained Scripts with Connectivity and SAP BW Query name. I save this KPI and include in a new report and Run it. There are no records displayed.
Case 2: Manual data collection - This KPI is marked for manual data collection. So, maintained values in SuPM portal itself. I save this KPI and include in a new report and Run it. There are no records displayed.
Could you please help me how KPI in SuPM be filled manually and automatically ( from BW Query)?
Thanks,
Best Regards
PhaniRaj

Dear Phani,
First of All, you should have a framework created and assign the Core KPI to that framework and specify the frequency of the framework (Say Monthly) and Activate it.
Upon Activation, if it is a Manual Data Collection, then you should perform Role Assignment ie specifyinfwho would be the Business Contributor & Approver for ur Manual KPI.
After this, you have to run this program [/SRCORE/DATAREQUEST] in SE38 in the backend system which wil create a data request,
Later you should login as Business Contributor and go to MY Data Requests and then provide the data for the Month specified. Then login as Approver and under Approvals option, you should Approve the data. Now, you should go to SuPM application and select that Month in the dimension and KPI and then RUN the Report.
For Automated Data Collection, you should have to initially creata a Query (SAP/ BW) and specify the name of the query in SPRO--> Sustainability Performance Management --> Automated Data Collection --> Maintain Queries (SAP/ BW) --> Specify that Query name and the Connector ID (SM59).
Now go for KPI creation and specify the Query name in the KPI and then Assign the KPI to the framework and activate it.
Upon Activation, You should RUN the program /SRCORE/AUTO_DATA_COLLECT. Now, select this KPI in the report and RUN the report.
If you perform these actions, you will get the values in the report.
It can be checked in the backend application, either by checking the Process chain[RSPC] or by checking the Infocube if the data is loaded into the Infocube or not.
Let me know if you face any problems...

How to access Previous Records' Data from within a Query?

Hi All,
I am making a report in which I need to compare my "Registration Start Date" with "Registration End Date" of previous registration of same customer. This is to check if there are gaps between any customer's registrations.
In scenario shown below, I want to filter out RegID '1' as it comes after a gap from previous registration(RegID '3') of the same customer.
RegID CustID Registration Start Registration End
1 1 01/04/2005 07/04/2005
2 2 01/03/2005 29/05/2005
3 1 21/03/2005 29/03/2005
4 1 01/03/2005 21/04/2005
I created the join of this table with itself to pick previous records. it is something like:
Current_Rec.Cust ID = Prev_Rec.CustID AND
Current_Rec.RegStart > Prev_Rec.RegEnd
But this gives wrong data if customer has 3 back-to-back registrations. i.e. Shows last registration in query results as their is a gap between 3rd and 1st registration. But ofcourse there was another record between these two(which was 2nd registration).
It would be so nice of you guys if you can suggest a solution to this. Any oracle function?
Thanks & Regards,
Ahsan

I Assume the following is your sample data
Table Name: Tab1
RegID CustID Registration_Start      Registration_End
1      1      01/04/2005           07/04/2005
2      2      01/03/2005           29/05/2005
3      1      21/03/2005           29/03/2005
4      1      01/03/2005           21/03/2005
Note : For the Regid "4" I have changed the Registration_End to 21/03/2005. It was earlier 21/04/2005.
Coming to the query, you need to generate the list of regid that have gaps.
Try the following query:
SELECT c.*
FROM tab1 c
WHERE c.reg_id NOT IN (
SELECT a.reg_id
FROM tab1 a, tab1 b
WHERE a.cust_id = b.cust_id
AND a.registration_end = b.registration_start
Note: I am sorry I didn't have access to the data base to execute my query. Correct me if I am wrong.

How to load data from one Infobject into another in the same system??

Hello All,
i need to load hierarchy data (already existing in 1 Infobject) into another newly created Infobject in the same BW system.Is there a way to do it without involving flat files??
Thanks soo much in advance
Regards,
Priya

hi
say there are two infoobjects X and Y.
X is existing infoobject and Y in new one.
go to infosurce-search for X-create export datasource - map the rules and load the data.
This is one way.
Other way is u can use X as a reference object of Y so that both of them have same structure and both objects will share common database tables in BW which are exsting for X.
Hope this helps.
Kindly assign the points if it helps.
