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.

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.

Delete Full Requests from an InfoCube with a BIA index on it

Hello all
I need to delete certain random Full requests from a cube which has both DB indexd and BIA index on it?
What will be the steps i should be following in regards to deleting/ rebuilding indexes ?
Regards
Sanjyot

Thanks Vitaliy but I have multiple requests with huge amount of data to be deleted.
So I was wondering if the following steps are correct
1. delete DB indices
2. delete BIA indices
3. delete requests from cube
4. rebuild DB indices
5. rebuild BIA indices
Are there any steps to ensure that indices are rebuilt correctly?

Deleted requests from a infocube remain in F table

I used the manage tab of the infocube to delete seleted requests. The request are no longer visible, but the data for them remains in the F table.
how can i reconcile this?

Richard,
Good thing you posted the basis person's comment. Your next steps are not going to be easy. What you have to do is selective deletion. Find out the remaining request numbers. Try to determine the request numbers you tried to delete.
It looks like the DB is not able to delete large chunks of data. So, you have to put request number and anything else (say, company code) and begin deleting data in smaller chunks.
As things get better (and there is more room for DB), you can try deleting individual requests - still using selective deletion.
Good luck!

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 Request Routine

Hello all,
Im trying to do a routine for deleting requests from the infocube after update. I was able to do some, but in some cases if the records that ran in the infopackage are less than the previous package, then it means that is wrong, even though it has the green light, and in that case I dont want the system to delete the previous package, I dont know how to specify that, cause the other ones were very simple and Im not an abap programmer, can anyone help me with this please?

Hi
Ajay,
My scnerios is to delete request while loading data into the cube. Here i am loading data from flatfile from application server, using two variants for daily and monthly loads. The monthly request will run once on 1st of the month(at best 2nd) and the request will be retained.The daily loads requst will be deleted on daily basis while loading. Now on reaching 30th of the month the daily loads will remain. Here i again i shall load the monthly load on 1st but have to delete the daily request on 30th to avoid duplication of data. I created two infosource, one for daily loads and one for the monthly loads. I gave the settings respectively but purpose is not served. Then i rgot ur code with minor modification.
data : zrnr like rsmonictab-rnr,
       zic_id like rsmonictab-ic_id,
       zlnr like rsmonictab-lnr,
       curr_Rec_count type i.
*loop at l_t_request_to_delete.
select * from rsmonictab into table rsmonictab1
where infocube = 'ZCSCRORD'.
sort rsmonictab1 by timestamp descending.
read table rsmonictab1 index 1. "get the latest req
curr_rec_count = rsmonictab1-req_insert.
zrnr = rsmonictab1-rnr.
zic_id = rsmonictab-ic_id.
zlnr = rsmonictab-lnr.
delete from rsmonictab where rnr = zrnr and ic_id = zic_id and
lnr = zlnr.
Please help me. It will be nice if u can me the code to fulfill the above mentioned scenerios.

While deleting one of the erroneous requests from some infocubes,
system is resulting in short dump "MESSAGE_TYPE_X".
This is happening only with respect to some infocubes.
Description of short dump:
Short text of error message:
System error in program RSMDATASTATE and form RSM_DATASTATE_CHECK-5- (see long text)
Can any one of you please help with this?

Nilima Rodrigues

Hi NILIMA,
I got same problem with my InfoPackage last month with same error msg.
that error come due to data inconstancy in data base table.
in my case i am unable to open my InfoPackage and after double clicking it was giving dump with same error.
If u know abap then just change the sy-subrc value from 4 to 0 before dump line code it will resolve your problem.
for this on dump screen click on debugger button then it opens your code and shows line on which u getting dump with table name check your entry in table ok
if u unable u find table then do one thing just put break point before dump line and open fresh rsa1 and go to same cube and double click it will stop on your debugger point just press f5 button it shos sy-subrc 4 convert it to 0 and press edit button and press f8 .

Hi,
You can delete the perticular request from Infocube by useing'RSICCONT'.
Goto SE16, give the 'RSICCONT' then Select your Cube and Select Execuite.
It will display the list of requests. you can select the perticular request and deleted from cube.

Delete Request in InfoCube

I would like to delete all the Request in the InfoCube and do the re-load from ECC6.
I right-click InfoCube ->Delete Content, then it will prompt me the following:
Do you want to delete the contents of this InfoCube?
I click Yes, then it prompt me the following:
Do you want to keep the data in the dimension
tables?
I click No
Is it correct to choose No?
What is the different between this Delete Contents if I delete all the Request manually in InfoCube ->Manage ->Request tab?
What happen if the Request has been compressed and also roll-up to Aggregate?
Which option should I use - 1) right-click InfoCube ->Delete Data or 2) Delete the Request one by one via InfoCube ->Manage ->Request tab?

Hello Lynn,
Deleting the Dimensions or keeping then depends on if the data you load again will be similar to what you deleted. Since
the data loaded are normally very equal to the data you loaded before it makes sense to keep the Dimension tables
and than most SIDs/DIMIDs in the Dimensions are existing and the loading is faster.
If you want to 'cleen up the cube complety though (maybe you completey redesign it) then its better to delete the
Dimensions. If you keep dimemsions you also need to check that there ratio to the size of the fact table do not
get too large, you can check this by executing the Transaction RSRV >Transaction Data > Multiple Entries
in Dimensions of a (Basis) InfoCube and Entries Not Used in theDimension of an InfoCube.
If you manually delete the entries from the fact table the difference is that the data will not be deleted from
the E fact table (this is where the compressed data is stored).
If you want to delete all data from the cube then the best option to use is to right click on the cube and select the
option "delete data".
Best Regards,
Des

With out deleting request can we reconstruct

Hi,
can any one tell me With out deleting request can we reconstruct the request.

Hi,
loads that come through PSA move to reconstruction tab after deletion so that it can be edited in PSA and loaded again. This is mostly done for delta requests to make sure that we do not loose data in any case.
There would be no point in reconstructing the load which is already there in the target guess you cant do it rather.
Thanks

Deleted Red Request Reappears in Infocube

Hi all,
We are facing one peculiar problem in which, When we delete one Erroneous request from Infocube, It gets deleted. But, again going to manage and if we check, this request reappears. We deleted all the data from Infocube. We checked Job log which shows that, Request is deleted. Still that request appear in Infocube. Please help us to solve the problem
Thanks and Regards,
Harpal

Hi,
Through SM37 select the job and stop it...it won't stop if it running from long time...for long running job go to SM50 see the process running from your ID....there could be more then one process running ...one is for your session in the system and you cannot kill that....check for the other one and go inside the log to see if it is the right one ...which you want to cancel....just select the process and in the top left you have the option to cancel without core....
In BW, u could do that by forcing the STATUS to RED Signal.
You have to stop the load in the source system if u r loading from R/3 System, for that use transaction SM50 or SM51 to kill the process.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Raj

How can I delete all loads for a specific infopackage in a process chain?

Good day all,
I've got a BW 3.5 system. and I have a cube which is loaded by two infopackages, I will call them "Current" and "History" which load each month. On an ongoing basis I only want one "Current" infopackage load and many "History" infopackage loads. At the beginning of a month before I load a new "Current", I would like to delete any loads in my cube that were loaded by "Current". It's not an overlapping selection request, so the automated delete won't work - so I'm open for suggestions.
Thanks, Ken

In the InfoPackage settings - Data Target tab, use the Automatic loading of similar/identical requests option.
Instead of deleting "overlapping", you can request selection through the routine using the following tables:
rsreqdone contains the request numbers and the InfoPackage technical name.
rsseldone contains request numbers and their selection criteria.
Use something like this:
TABLES: rsreqdone, rsseldone.
DATA: itab_rsseldone TYPE rsseldone,
 itab_rsreqdone TYPE SORTED TABLE OF rsreqdone WITH NON-UNIQUE
 KEY rnr WITH HEADER LINE,
 v_date TYPE sy-datum.
*selecting all requests from RSREQDONE that were loading from this infopackage
select rnr from RSREQDONE into table itab_rsreqdone
where LOGDPID = 'Current Infopackage Technical Name'.
loop at itab_rsreqdone.
*selecting all these requests + selection criteria from RSSELDONE
select single * from rsseldone into itab_RSSELDONE
where rnr = itab_rsreqdone-rnr.
if sy-subrc EQ 0.
v_date = sy-datum.
*if the Month Selection criteria is less than the current system month
*then delete request from target.
if itab_RSSELDONE-low(6) < v_date(6).
*all requests remaining in l_t_request_to_delete are deleted from the data target
l_t_request_to_delete-rnr = itab_rsreqdone-rnr.
append l_t_request_to_delete.
ENDIF.
ENDIF.
endloop.
*do not delete the actual request
DELETE l_t_request_to_delete WHERE
rnr = l_request.
clear p_subrc.

Deleting Request from cube based on Selection Condition

HI All,
I have a scenario where i have three selection condition while i update from ODS to CUBE . I keep getting differnet versions of the file so the latest version should replace the old version , to do this i tired using the option
Delte Request from Info Cube after Update in the Data Tagets tab
And the Radio button Overlapping is checked . ( This is not working )
The three selection conditions in Info Pacake are
Reduest id from ODS : 11111
Cal Month                 : 20072
File Type                   : B
The selecion condition for the second Version in Info Pacake of the same file that should replace the first file in cube is
Reduest id from ODS : 22222 ( The request id is RID in the ODS for second file )
Cal Month                 : 20072
File Type                   : B
so can any one let me know how can i achvie this ........

Hi Abraham,
   You select the variable deletion conditions when you schedule the InfoPackage that is going to load the new data. On the Data Targets tab page in the Automatic Deletion of Similar/Same Requests from InfoCube column, you click on the pushbutton to go to the Deletion of Requests from the InfoCube After Update dialog box.
Here you determine under which conditions existing requests are deleted from the InfoCube:
·        You can include update modes, InfoSources, DataSources, and source systems for requests.
Example
Requests are deleted when the appropriate deletion conditions are met if existing requests and new ones were loaded from the same DataSource.
·        You can determine whether the selections for the new request need to be the same as or more comprehensive than the selections of the request that is to be deleted, or whether the selections for the new request need to completely or partially overlap the selections of the request that is to be deleted.
·        You can specify deletion restrictions according to date. This means that, when the deletion conditions are met, only those requests that were loaded within a specific time period are actually deleted.
Example
If you choose Data for the Request from the Last Seven Days, only those requests are deleted that have been loaded in the last seven days.
·        You can specify situations in which a request is not to be deleted, even if the appropriate deletion conditions are in place.
Example
If, under Exceptions, you choose the Today is the Last Day of a Month, existing requests are not deleted, if the new request is loaded on the last day of a month.
·        Another option for determining deletion conditions is creating a user routine for the InfoPackage and the InfoCube. In this routine you can exclude requests from a deletion process or include additional requests for deletion.
Check conditions again, it will work, if selection and data source is same.
Hope it Helps

Delete request in Process chain in BI 70

Hi Experts,
I have a load request for the past 12 months in a cube. Since the data can be changed retroactively in the source during 12 months, I have to delete the previous request and load a new one every month. We used to do that in 3.1 by using Process type "Delete Overlapping request" in combination with the InfoPackage, but it does not work in 2004s.
What are the right parameters that we should use in the DTP, the InfoPackage and Process Type?
Currently, DTP is Delta, InfoPackage is Full, Process Type is "Delete Overlapping Request" (InfoSource and dataSource are the same. But the previous request does not get deleted.
Thanks,
JL

Hello Jean-Luc,
As it looks for me the problem ist that "Delete Overlapping Request" is working only with Full DTPs but not with Deltas in 7.0.
(check note 1147766 herefore).
According to note 1336410 it is possible again. But then you need to set flag 'Only Get Delta Once' in your Delta DTP.
If you need this see if you are able to implement note 1336410.
Hope this helps you.
Kind regards

Delete Request using a Routine in the Scheduler

Hi all,
I have an infocube. Data are loaded into this cube on a weekly basis according to the following requirements.
Example:
Let's assume we are in Apriland April has 4 weeks:
Week 1 of April - Data for week 1 are loaded
Week 2 of April - Data for week 1 and 2 are loaded
(request for week 1 is deleted)
Week 3 of April - Data for week 1, 2 and 3 are loaded
(request for week 2 is deleted which were the data for week 1 and 2)
On the 2nd day of the following Month (in our example this would be May 2nd) Data for week 1, 2, 3, and 4 of April are loaded.(request for week 3 is deleted which were the data for week 1, 2 and 3).
These April data (loaded on the second day of the following month) should stay in the cube then and not be deleted any more.
The procedure for the following Months (i.e. for May etc) should be the same.
This means
Week 1 of May - Data for week 1 are loaded
Week 2 of May - Data for week 1 and 2 are loaded
(request for week 1 is deleted)
etc.
On the 2nd day of the following Month (in our example this would be June 2nd) Data for week 1, 2, 3, and 4 of May are loaded.(request for week 3 is deleted which were the data for week 1, 2 and 3).
These May data (loaded on the second day of the following month) should stay in the cube then and not be deleted any more.
CAN ANYBODY HELP ME WITH THIS REQUIREMENT AND TELL ME HOW I CAN DO THAT?
CAN I DO THAT USING A ROUTINE IN THE SCHEDULER ON TAB DATA TARGETS TO DELETE THE REQUEST BASED ON THE LOGIC DESCRIBED ABOVE? DOES ANYONE HAVE SAMPLE CODE FOR THAT?

But my problem is I want the deletion sections Is yesterday or today, only delete request from same DTP, New request will be loaded on (2 day of a month) BUT I dont want the selection restriction, because every day I want the last view (sy-datum - 1). I only want to save the last day of the month.
example

load from 03.10.2010 ...
any suggestion?
regards,
victoria

Hi,
Check the process "Delete overlapping requests from infocube".
Select radio button "Edit All infocubes with following delete selections" & press button Delete Selections > Delete existing requests>conditions : data sources are the same --> selections are : same or more comprehensive -->Request date is in the current month --> Exceptions : new request will be loaded on 1st day of the month (if it's running everyday including weekends)
