Deletion of data target contents Vs delete overlapping requests

hi,
     when do we  go for <b>delete overlapping requests</b>? if it is applicable for full load as well as delta load then i would like to first come up with the full load concept, we have the other option called <b>delete data target contents</b> with this we can delete daily full load without going for delete overlapping requests.
Pls let me know exact difference between DELETE OVERLAPPING REQUESTS FROM INFOCUBE with DELETE DATA TARGET CONTENTS.

hi
When you have delta upload twice daily..the date in the previous request and the second request is same....so you might be giving this option to delete the overlap such that data is not loaded twice
Assign points dont forget

  • Deletion of data target contents

    Hi Experts,
    Could any one help me out in the folloeing.
    I have an ODS which is updating from R/3, which needs to delete contents before updating on daily basis and replace with new request.
    From few days this process is continuously giving failure and its saying that " DROP CUBE IS FAILED".
    Please let me know the resultions or sugessions to avoid this occurance.
    Thanks,

  • Unable to delete data target contents of Write-Optimized DSO in Process Chain

    Hi Experts,
    We are using SAP Net Weaver BW 7.01 version and we need to delete the entire data target contents of Write-Optimized DSO in the process chain before the next data load.
    I included this step in process chain but still it is failing with errore message"Message not found (in main memory), Drop Cube Failed In Data Target"
    This process type is working during BW 7.0 version but not in BW 7.01 version.
    However i found that we can use the program RSSM_DELETE_WO_DSO_REQUESTS to delete old requests in the Write-Optimized DSO for BW 7.01 SP07 as per SAP Note 1437407 but still it's not working even after implementing this program as the Prerequisite to delete the request is the data mart status should be updated where it is not happening for the program.
    We had an process type option to 'delete the requests from Write-Optimized DSO' directly in BW 7.3 but still not available in 7.01 version.
    Could you please suggest me on how to resolve this issue in BW 7.01?
    Many thanks for your help in advance.
    Regards,
    Madhu

    Create ABAP program as attached code.
    Then you can use that ABAP program in process chains through ABAP variant
    ABAP varaint should have following properties
    Select call mode as Synchronous; call from Local; and Program
    Give your ABAP program name in "program name" and create one program variant for each write optimized DSO.
    Please refer how to use ABAP program in process chains for further details.
    Hope this helps

  • "Completely delete data target content" setting in InfoPackage

    Gurus,
    In a Infopackage to load a cube that has 2 sources- Source 1 and source 2,there is a setting
    "Completely delete data target content" under datatargets.
    The InfoPackage is for loading data from source 1. Does this mean that the setting "Completely delete data target content" deletes just the requests related to source 1 from the cube or all the requests in the cue before making any other load.
    Please advice.
    Thanks,
    Simmi

    Hello Simmi,
    This is content from help regarding this feature and it says that entire content of cube will be deleted.
    Delete InfoCube contents completely
    Use
    With every load process before updating the data in an InfoCube, you can delete the entire content of this InfoCube. Mark field Delete entire InfoCube content for this.
    If you are using the InfoPackage in a process chein, the setting is hidden in the scheduler, since it is represented in the Process Chain Maintenance through its own process type and is maintained there.

  • Selective deletion of data target through FM

    Hi,
    I have one DSO and One Cube.Sales doc is an IO in both the Data targets. So I have to compare sales doc values in DSO and Cube. If the same doc exists in Cube .I have to delete from Cube.
    Pls tell me how to write code for this.
    Regards,
    Swathi

    HI Swathi ,
    Correct me if i am wrong , you want to delete the sales document if that document exist in Cube and DSO.
    So while loading DSO u need to chk for that document if it exist in cube or not .
    Step 1 : you will have a SID table for sales document /BI0/SDOC_NUMBER from this table you need to get the Sales document with SID ID .
    step 2 : Once you get that informaiton you need to pass this informaiton to cube table /BIC/DZSD_C001 (Cube has 13 DIM tables you need to see which dimension table your sales document exist ) .
    so you need to pass step 1 DIM ID to step 2 table if it exist , it means that cube has that sales document then you can zero out all the key figure values(qty & amounts) in DSO by negating the values (for eg. suppose u have 10 ,20 ,35.00 in ODS , u need to make them -10,-20,-35.00) and pass this delta to cube then in cube 10 +(-10) will become Zero and you can compress with Zero elemination in the cube so that all the zero records will be deleted .
    This is my thought .
    I dnt knw why you want to delete the records from cube , if you delete like this after some time your cube has zero records .I dnt know what is ur requirement .

  • Data deleted in data targets

    Hi Gurus,
    By mistake I have deleted the data in production from some data targets
    all the data is still available in PSA (for 9 months).
    This happened in two data targets from two data sources.
    No. of records are not even 1 million.
    Total no. of request for each PAS is 279.
    Is there a way I can load the data in parallel or something.
    which can complete the task faster. Right now I am selecting each request
    and loading one by one.
    Regards

    HI,
    If you are in 3.5 goto reconsturction and select all requet you need to load and go for reconstruction which will reconstruct all request one after the another. No manual intervention necessary.
    incase of 7.0 do a init without datatransfer from PSA and give a full update request for 3 months and load all the data which will help you in completing the data load faster.
    Hopet this helps for you.
    Thanks,
    Arun

  • Viewing of data target contents

    Hi,
      If i go to the Info object definition which is declared as a data target (MAster Data)   i can see No of Info Objects (40) defined as a attributes .
      Right Click ODS select manage for context menu and go to content tab there also i can see all the info objects.
      But when i execute to check the data that has been loaded i can't see any columns for 4 info objects which are in contents  list.
      How can i correct this
    Thanks

    Hi:
    Go to transaction
    LISTCUBE.
    Give the name of your ODS.
    DONT select Display SID.
    Execute.
    Here, you will see ALL Key Figures.
    All Main CHaracteristics.
    All Keys.
    You will also see the Navigational Attributes that are selected (ON) in ODS.
    THen, go to button called Field Selection for Output.
    Here, select wjat you want to see in Report.
    Hit Execute. Hit ececute again.
    You will see what you need to see.

  • Deleting Cube data takes up all DIA processes

    Good day
    We are in Bi 7.0 and I have a problem that I cannot find an answer for.
    I have created a process chain where I delete cube data with event "Complete deletion of Data Target Contents" among loading data again etc.. When this process chain starts and get to the deletion part it will use up all the DIA processes in production (SM50) and bring it to its knees for more than an hour. If I do the same thing in DEV and QA, with the same amount of records (1 200 000), then it deletes within a few seconds. I deleted the contents manually in prod as well and the same thing is happening.
    What can I do to rectify this or where can I check why this is happening?
    Thanks in advance.
    Cj

    CJ,
    Have you ever used the transaction RSBATCH?  It controls how many processes are allocated to particular BW batch functions (e.g. DTP loads, Data deletes, etc.).  In RSBATCH, go into  the Mass Maintenance of All Settings for Parallel Processing.  You should be able to find the delete that you're having an issue with by selecting the appropriate process type and the correct process variant.  Compare the settings in Prod to your more manageable settings that exist in Dev and QA.  This would most likely be the place I'd start looking.
    Hope this helps.
    Peace,

  • Question on Deleting data from data target

    Hello Experts,
    I have one quesiton, what is diffrence when we right click on data target and " delete data" and when we right click on data target and go to manage and delete particular request.
    is it same thing or diffrent ?
    Please help.
    Regards
    Krish

    Hi Krish,
       If you right click on data target and choose delete data option then you have the option of deleting data from Fact table alone or from Fact table and the Dimension tables too.
    The other options will delete the data only from the particular request Fact table.
    Thanks and regards

  • Selective Data target deletion - Job

    Hi,
    Is it possible to do selective deletion of data targets for a scheduled intervals.
    For example,
    On 1st of every month, a job has to get scheduled deleting the past 15 days of record from the infocube. And subsequently, updated data for the last 15 days will be pushed in to the infocube from an RFC.
    Please let me know for any clarifications.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi there:
      The alternative we took is based on this Wiki.
    "Using Selective Deletion in Process Chains"

    To avoid using hardcode we created a Custom Table that is read by an ABAP Program located on the InfoPackage, on that Table we store the input parameters: InfoCube Name, any Characteristic present on the InfoCube, Operator (EQ or BT) and start/end values in case of a range.

  • How to delete master data via process chain

    Hi All,
    I have to delete master data before loading it again via a process chain.
    In the process chain I chose the process " complete deletion of the data target content" but here I did not find infoobject as the data target option to delete the data.
    Please suggest how to solve this.
    Thanks,
    Harini

    Hi Harini,
    P_CHABNM - It is for the reference characteristic.
    I think if you dont have a ref characteristic then give the info-object name.
    This is what I fetched fom help.
    Reference characteristic
    The reference characteristic has the technical properties of a characteristic such as data type and length, as well as the master data (attributes, texts and hierarchies). The characteristic itself also has buinesses semantics.  Several characteristics can refer to the same reference  characteristic. Such characteristics automatically have the same technical properties and master data.
    Example:
    The characteristics sender cost center and receiver cost center use the reference characteristiccost center and with it the same values and the same texts.

  • Deleting Master Data via Process Chain

    I am in the midst of creating a process chain and am able to create process for deleting ODS Contents, but am not able to do the same for Master Data. Is this possible?

    Firstly, why do you want to delete master data.
    You cannot delete master if the same is used across other transaction and master ( attr )data.
    You may use :
    Prg - > RSDMD_DEL_BACKGROUND
    FM - >RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_ DATA.
    To my knwldge you cannot delete MD using process chains.
    You can delete data in PSA periodically..is that you are looking for ?

  • Deleting master data after loading transactional data using flat file

    Dear All,
    I have loaded transaction data  into an infocube using a flat file . While loading DTP i have checked the  option "load  transactional data with out master data exists" . So transactional data is loaded even if no master data is there in BW.
    While loading the flat file, I made a mistake for DIVISION Characteristic  where original master data value is '04000' , but i loaded the transactional data with value '4000' .Then i later realized after seeing the data from the infocube and deleted the request. then i reloaded data with value '04000'. Till now every thing is fine.
    But when I see the master data for DIVISION , i can see a new entry  with value '4000'.
    My question is how to delete the entry value '4000' from DIVISION. I tried deleting manually this entry from 'maintaining masterdata' , but it is not allowing me to do so .
    I have also checked if any transactional data exists for that value '4000' , as i said earlier I have deleted the transactional data with that values. even tried to delete the entries from the master data table, but i donot see a option to delete entries there.
    Please suggest me on this.
    Regards,
    Veera

    Hi,
    Goto RSA1 right click on the Info object and select Delete Master data. This will delete the master data unused existing in the table.
    If this master data is not used any where else just delete the master data completely with SID option.
    If even this doesnt work you can delete the complete table entire in SE14. But this will wipe out the entire table. Be sure if you wanna do this.
    Hope this helps
