Delete infoobject from an infocube with data

Hi,
I have just added an infoobject to an infocube which has data. Now, I need to delete that infoobject and I think that if the infocube has data I couldnt delete the infoobject.
How can I delete the infoobject without removing the data?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards.

Hi David,
deleting an infoObject from an database table is everytime difficult. The correct solution depends on different requirements:
How many datasets are in the infocube - how large is the cube.
Can you reload the data from a source or an DSO
Does your release support remodeling.
The best solution would be - delete the data, transport your change of datamodel to prod system and reload the data. The second solution could be: create an copy of the actual infocube, load the the data from the original cube to copy, delete the data from original cube, transport your changes to prod system, load the data from copy to "new"original cube, delete the copy.
You can also try to use the remodeling function. But there is no guarantee that this will work correct. We made some good and some bad experiences with this tool.
Cheers

  • Deleting infoobjects from Dimension in Cube

    Hi All,
    I am trying to delete infoobjects from a dimension in a cube. My constraint is that I cannot delete all the data in the cube. This dimension is a new dimension which I had created 1 month ago. So, I deleted all the requests which I had loaded after creating this new dimension, so that this Dimension table gets emptied. I have also adjusted the dimension from RSRV. The dimension table is now empty. Still, I am not able to delete the infoobjects from this dimension or delete the dimension altogether.
    Any pointers to this will be highly appreciated.
    regards,
    Saikat

    Hi,
    I had thought about remodelling. I can do it in Dev and make the changes, and transport them to Q. The constraint is that in Q there are 2.8 million records and I don't want to delete the data in Q. In case the transport fails, I cannot use remodelling in Q (to do this we will have to open up the system; not recommended).
    I can selectively delete only those requests which contained data in the new dimension. But I think the same issue will occur as in Dev currently (even if the dimension table is empty, deleting a dimension is not allowed).

    3. delete requests from cube

  • Delete Duplicates from internal table with object references

    Hi
    How can I delete duplicates from an internal table in ABAP OO based on the value of one of the attributes?
    I have created a method, with the following code:
      LOOP AT me->business_document_lines INTO l_add_line.
        CREATE OBJECT ot_line_owner
          EXPORTING
            i_user      = l_add_line->add_line_data-line_owner
            i_busdoc = me->business_document_id.
          APPEND ot_line_owner TO e_line_owners.
      ENDLOOP.
    e_line_owners are defined as a table containing only object references.
    One of the attribute of the object in the table is called USER. And I would like to do a "delete ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM e_line_owners", based on that attribute.
    How can do this?
    Regards,
    Morten Nielsen

    Hello Morten
    Assuming that the instance attribute is <b>public </b>you could try to use the following coding:
      SORT e_line_owners BY table_line->user.
      DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM e_line_owners
        COMPARING table_line->user.
    However, I am not really sure (cannot test myself) whether <b>TABLE_LINE</b> can be used together with SORT and DELETE.
    Alternative solution:
      DATA:
         ld_idx    TYPE sy-tabix.
      LOOP AT e_line_owners INTO ls_line.
        ld_idx = syst-tabix + 1.
        LOOP AT e_line_owners TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS FROM ld_idx
                       WHERE ( table_line->user = ls_line->user ).
          DELETE e_line_owners INDEX syst-tabix.
        ENDLOOP.
      ENDLOOP.

  • Delete requests in a infocube with infopackage

    Hi BW Gurus.
    I have to delete a request in a infocube during the loading and I would like to use the option "deleting request from infocube after update" inside the infopackage.
    The option "Selections are ...same or more comprehensive" is not what I need because I would like to delete only when the selections in the infopackege are equal and not when they are more comprehensive.
    For example, if I load from month 01 to month 03, I want to delete only the prevous request with the same selection and not the request that have from month =01 to month=02 selection.
    The infopackage selections are read from a custom table.
    Thanks for any help.
    S.

    Hi. Thank for the reply.
    I can't use this option.
    Look at the example:
    I have a request with "from month 01 to month 02" selection and I would like to load a request with "from month 01 to month 03" selection.
    The option "'deleting requests with same or more comprehensive"  deletes the request because month 01 to month 03 is more comprehensive than from 01 to 02 month.
    The option 'deleting requests with overlapping selections' deletes the request because because month 01 to month 03 overlapp  from 01 to 02 month selection.
    It could be good to have a "delentig request with same selection" option and not with "more comprehensive" in the same option.

  • Remove fields from ODS objects with data

    Hi
    Is there a smartway to delete the infoobjects from an ODS without deleting contents? These fields are just added to ODS, and activated the ODS. But, now we donot want them and want to delete these objects from ODS. Any ideas???
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If it will not be possible for you to reload the data to the ODS after deleting, you can try to create a copy of this ODS, move the data from original to copy, delete data in original, make changes and reactivate, and then move data back from copy to original.
    Hope this helps...

  • Copy of an InfoCube with Data

    Hi,
    I want to make a copy of an infocube with the data.
    I tried creating the cube by copying it from the original one. The new cube got created but without data.
    Can anyone please help.
    Thanks
    Ramesh

    Hi,
    Actually you can try these options:
    1. since you have created a similar cube with hope fully similar info source,
        then you can go to the info package and this time select your new cube
       as target and reload the data..
    2. Other wise, generate export data source from the original cube, make a copy
        cube from the original durig the update rule creation for second cube select
        the souce as info cube and put the name of the cube..
    3. Then go to the data mart info source area for copy cube create a package
        and then run the init/full load..
    Hope it helps..
    thanks=points.

  • Deleted files from the Original and Data folders - help?

    Hello,
    I imported my fiance's iphoto library to try to recover photos that I lost from when my hard drive crashed. They first were not importing into iphoto (while the files were on the harddrive), so I placed them in my Originals/Data iphoto folders. Now I have 6-8 versions of files that I don't even necessarily need, mostly thumbnails and a few of the original files.
    I know I have made a lot of mistakes... so at this point what do I do- I've stopped manually deleting folders from these categories, but I do not want to lose what precious pictures I had from before the harddrive failure, and how do I get back to a iphoto library without duplicates?
    Please advise!!! Thank you!

    My library still opens within iPhoto- will it continue to do so? Do I need to do anything now (since I have already messed with the Originals and Data folders?)
    In addition, iPhoto now shows me blanks for some pictures/events, is there a way to have iPhoto scan the entire computer and realize files are missing and to ignore them?
    Therefore it is not a fully functioning iPhoto library - it is corrupted
    3 - if you do not have a fully functioning iPhoto library then quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library to the desktop, launch iPhoto and create a new library and then open the bad iPhoto library on the desktop and open the originals folder and drag each folder from it onto the iPhoto icon in the dock (or the iPhoto event window) to create events with all of your photos, then back up and run duplicate annihilator
    Since you have corrupted your library you can do anything you want to it before you create a new one from the remaining photos

  • Pdf form for data from another form with data, xml or pdf, tables not expanding

    Sir,
    I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and LifeCylce to do these forms. I have made several subforms for a Risk Assessment for the mission they fly. I have also made up another form with tables that would connect with each subform data. This form also will give me and others a % of the values received from the data to help us with seeing problem area towards Safety.
    I am able to connect the data to the form from the Risk Forms but when I go and add another group of data it over writes the data that was already in the data collection form. The tables are dynamic and able to expand with the generated data but when I compile several Risk Forms, xml. data into one single data group, the receiving tables will not except this data. To compile the data I am in Acrobat and using the form-manage form data-merge data to spreadsheet than enter as a report that is xml. Still not working. I also tried to save the form, with data already in the tables, and then opened it again and add data to it, it will over write the existing data in the form. This form does work great with the generated data in LiveCycle.
    Any suggestions???

    Thanks Paul
    Did as you said and for each subform binding tab made sure I have "Repeat subform for each data item" checkbox and still no change when I add the data.
    I even tried to combine the xml data and that file just has the main page and not the data pages. just another problem that is happening.
    Any other suggestions on this expanding tables and receive single forms one at a time.
