Delta from infoobject to cube

Hi All,
I need to load a cube from an infoobject. I know it is a wierd requirement. But if i create a transformation from infoobject to cube, is it possible to have a delta load from an infoobject to cube using transformation ?
Regards,
Satya

Hi,
Yes, this is possible. What you should do is:
Select the InfoObject. Right mouse click and select Additional Functions -> Generate Export DataSource
Go to datasources and select the material datasource. Right mouse click and choose Create Transformation and choose the InfoCube as target. Create the rest of the rules.
Go to infoproviders and select the InfoCube. Right mouse click and select Create Data Transfer Process. On this screen you can choose Delta.

Doubt on Deltas from ODS to CUBE

Hello Experts.
I have few Questions on Deltas. from ODS to CUBE
I have 3 Cubes ( X, Y, Z ) which gets Deltas from ODS ( A ) . i have extended the cube X so i have deleted data and Reloaded it. I have to do Deltas from ODS to Cubes from now on.
in the ODS manage ( there is Tick all connected data Targets to this Request is been Delted now ).
if i reinitalize the delta with out Data Transfer. will only the data which come now on to ODS( A ) will be going to cubes( X,Y,Z ) are all the data in ODS will go to Cubes.
Please Advice me.
Thanks
Sharp

Hi,
When you are loading the delta from the ODS, the data is taken from the changelog. These records are the + and - records generated as a result of the new data loaded and activated in the ODS. So, if there were any changes made to the existing records these will flow to the cubes as well.
If you do the init without data transfer, you need to couple that with the full load to create the initial status of data in the cubes.
Hope this helps...

Restore failed delta from ODS to cube

Hi All,
I have started a delta load from ODS to cube but it has failed abruptly, for some reason, with out extracting even a single record.
I want to restart/re-schedule the load but I am confused how to do that(just a delta or repair/repeat delta).
Can someone please suggest how to proceed.
Rgds,
RPK.

Hi Ravi,
I had to stop the request because of some other issues and now I have to start it again. There is no particular error.
Hi PB,
Thanks a lot for the reply. Are you sure that I have to delete this failed request first? Will it prompt for a repeat delta when I try to schedule it again?
Sorry for asking these questions but just want to make sure about it.

Mixed Full and Delta from ODS to Cube

Hi,
we're facing the following problem:
We're loading data from an ODS to a Cube via Delta, every night. Due to reporting needs it's
nessesary we have to write some Infoobject-attributes to the cube.
This attributes will change sometimes. To display the current truth, we have to delete the old
assignments from the cube and update them with the new attribute values.
My idea was the following:
1. Identify the lines in the cube with the old attributes
2. Delete them via "selective deleting"
3. Load the lines with the new attributes from the ODS to the Cube
4. Proceed with delta upload from the ODS.
Is it a possible way or any better ideas.
Kind regards
Lars

Hi,
thanx for your reply. Of course we update the attributes:
For example:
Today Infoobjekt IO (Value IO-Value) has Attribute A with the value B.
Row in Cube: IO-Value, B, Keyfigure.
Tomorrow: Today Infoobjekt IO (Value IO-Value) has Attribute A with the value C.
So I have to correct the value of the attribute in the Cube.
Navigation Attributes can't be used.

Repeat delta from ODS to Cube.

Hello All,
The data is coming from ODS to InfoCube...
Load for 24.05, 25.05 and 26.05 is successfully uploaded in ODS (full Upload) from R/3 system.
But the load for date 25.05 failed in InfoCube due to invalid chs. in one of the field.
The infocube is Z_CAD (Delta upload) and is fetching data from ODS Z_AD.
How do I make sure that I delete the request in InfoCube. and repeat the load from ODS for 25.05 and 26.05.
Kindly explain step wise.
I also have to make sure that the data mart status is set for further loads.
Kindly reply.
Regards,
Nikekab

Hi,
Since your data is available in ODS.
Delete the request for that day from Cube by making the request red in both Manage and Monitor screen.
Then rectify the invalid characters issue either by maintaining it in Tcode RSKC or by writing routine for it.
Then you can do a reconstruction as the reconstruction tab will available in the manage screen.
Kindly let me know in case further details are required.
Thanks,
Amit Kr.

Reg Delta from ODS to Cube

Hello , experts.
I am doing delta Load from ODS1 to Cube1, delta got failed. and in the ODS we have data. i want to reload it or i want to do repeat delta .
Problem is in the ODS its Marked that request as updated to data targets. in this case how should i proceed to repeat delta. i need steps to do this.
Thanks

Hi Sharp,
try to remove the mark (via ODS - manage - remove the 'mark' and update the data from ODS to the target cube again (ODS - right mouse click - check delta update option).
Hope it helps.

Data is not coming correctly through delta from DSO to Cube

HI All,
When there is change in Org. Unit, Job or any characteristic of employee then the the delta of data source picks that change records.
I have used DSO before Cube. Now in DSO active table have one record against the Employee and same Schedule hours as ECC have.
But while loading to the cube, this data of schedule hours will get added to existing schedule hours of Cube , which makes the schedule hours double for that Employee. For exmaple.
DSO Data.
Emp NO.     Date Org. Unit     Sch. Hrs
1                    ABC                              16
CUBE Data
Emp NO.     Org. Unit     Sch. Hrs
1                    ABC               16
Now Employee Org. Unit get changed to XYZ.
DSO Data.
Emp NO.     Org. Unit     Sch. Hrs
1                    XYZ               16
CUBE Data
Emp NO.     Org. Unit     Sch. Hrs
1                    ABC               16
1                    XYZ               16
I need data as it is in the DSO.
Please help, thanks in advance.
Arvind

Hi Arvind,
DSO and Infocube works different for char values......you can define Key Fields in DSO...
whereas in Infocube each Characteristic value work as Key Field.....that's the reason if there is any change in any characteristic value ...
DSO Active data will not change if Key field has not change..... the newly updated Data field value will be available in DSO Active Table.....whereas in Infocube... it will create a new entry......
In order to get the updated value each time you need to explore some other options .....like complete deletion of Info cube data and full load everyday.......
Other options depends on design and data volume and other parameters.
Hope this helps........

Delta from ODS to cube

Hello Gurus:
Is it possible to give slection criteria during 'Delta Initialization process' ?
I just saw that -- for full load, I see selection criteria in Infopackage. But, for Delta Init selection criteria is protected. Can you suggest why?
I will be happy to assign points.
Thanks

Dear KK,
From what i know ..
Due to it's delta ..
Delta is the methods for fetching the data that has a new/modified type. So off course it will be protected ..
It will be different w/ full-upload, where you can define the selection as you wish..
Hopefully it can help you a lot.
Regards,
Niel
thanks for the points you choose to assign.

New field added to cube, delta DTP from DSO to cube is failing

Dear all,
Scenerio in BI 7.0 is;
data source -delta IPs-> DSO -
delta DTP---> Cube.
Data load using proces chain daily.
We added new field to Cube --> transformation from DSO to cube is active, transport was successful.
Now, delta from DSO to cube is failing.
Error is: Dereferencing of the NULL reference,
Error while extracting from source <DSO name>
Inconsistent input parameter (parameter: Fieldname, value DATAPAKID)
my conclusion, system is unable to load delta due to new field. And it wants us to initialize it again ( am i right ?)
Do I have only one choice of deleting data from cube & perform init dtp again ? or any other way ?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Akshay Harshe

Hi Durgesh / Murli,
Thanks for quick response.
@ durgesh: we have mapped existing DSO field to a new field in cube. So yes in DTP I can see the field in filter. So I have to do re-init.
@ Murli: everything is active.
Actully there are further complications as the cube has many more sources, so wanted to avoid seletive deletion.

Akshay

Semantic Partitioning Delta issue while load data from DSO to Cube -BW 7.3

Hi All,
We have created the semantic partion with the help of BADI to perform Partitions. Everthing looks good,
first time i have loaded the data it is full update.
Second time i init the data load. I pulled the delta from DSO to Cube . DSO is standard where as Cube is partition with the help of semantic partition. What i can see is the records which are updated in Latest delta are shown into the report rest all are ignored by the system.
I tried compression but still it did not worked.
Can some has face this kind
Thanks

Yaseen & Soujanya,
It is very hard to guess the problem with the amount of information you have provided.
- What do you mean by cube is not being loaded? No records are extracted from DSO? Is the load completing with 0 records?
- How is data loaded from DSO to InfoCube? Full? Are you first loading to PSA or not?
- Is there data already in the InfoCube?
- Is there change log data for DSO or did someone delete all the PSA data?
Sincere there are so many reasons for the behavior you are witnessing, your best option is to approach your resident expert.
Good luck.

Delta between DSO and Cube

Hi All,
I have been working on a scenario where in we have to realign org structure information of some sales orders , now we have existing sales orders data in DSO , which feeds to a cube . As part of the realignment some master data attributes, more specifically Customer Master attributes, will be changed in R3 for those Sales Orders.
These attributes are part of the transaction data load which is happening to the DSO from the source, now since this transaction load is taking time, to speed up the process of realignment in BW I have used a routine to lookup the masterdata attributes from 0CUSTOMER in BW.
so before BW pulls the realigned data ( Sales Orders ) from R3, I will run a self loop in the DSO where in it will do a lookup in the 0CUSTOMER master data in BW to get the updated customer attributes (ofcourse the 0CUSTOMER load will happen before we do any realignment of the source data) .
Once the self loop transformation is completed and the sales orders are updated with the updated customer attributes, I will load the data to the cubes. (delta load)
Now once the sales order realignment is finished in R3 , I will pull the same set of data in the DSO .
Now the question is, is it necessary that I do a reinit of the cube before I load the second set of data to the cube?
I guess it is not necessary.
Please share your thoughts.

Hello Partho
I understand your KF are overwrite in DSO. But in BI7 flow delta from DSO to cube is request based.
When you will do a self-loop, same records ( I guess you have already loaded them to cube) will have different request id.
As a result your Change Log table will get different id after activation. So same record will get loaded to cube and which will make all your KF in cube doubled.
I believe to make correction in historical records in cube either you have to delete cube content and then run delta from DSO to cube. As first time delta will read Active table of DSO you will get all KF correct in cube..
Else, you have to delete all those previously loaded record from cube selectively.

Automatic loading from ODS to Cube in 3.5

Hi All
I was under the impression that in version 3.5 in order to load delta from ODS to Cube you had to run the 8 series Ipak.
However I have recently noticed that this ipak is running automatically after a delta load into the ODS even when the load is not via a process chain.
Can somebody where and how this setting is maintained.
Regards
A

Hi,
Go to ODS display mode and check if "Update Data Automatically" is ticked in Settings.

Delta records not updating from DSO to CUBE in BI 7

Hi Experts,
Delta records not updating from DSO to CUBE
in DSO keyfigure value showing '0' but in CUBE same record showing '-I '
I cheked in Change log table in DSO its have 5 records
ODSR_4LKIX7QHZX0VQB9IDR9MVQ65M - -1
ODSR_4LKIX7QHZX0VQB9IDR9MVQ65M -   0
ODSR_4LIF02ZV32F1M85DXHUCSH0DL -   0
ODSR_4LIF02ZV32F1M85DXHUCSH0DL -   1
ODSR_4LH8CXKUJPW2JDS0LC775N4MH -   0
but active data table have one record - 0
how to corrcct the delta load??
Regards,
Jai

Hi,
I think initially the value was 0 (ODSR_4LH8CXKUJPW2JDS0LC775N4MH - 0, new image in changelog) and this got loaded to the cube.
Then the value got changed to 1 (ODSR_4LIF02ZV32F1M85DXHUCSH0DL - 0, before image & ODSR_4LIF02ZV32F1M85DXHUCSH0DL - 1, after image). Now this record updates the cube with value 1. The cube has 2 records, one with 0 value and the other with 1.
The value got changed again to 0 (ODSR_4LKIX7QHZX0VQB9IDR9MVQ65M - (-1), before image &
ODSR_4LKIX7QHZX0VQB9IDR9MVQ65M - 0, after image). Now these records get aggregated and update the cube with (-1).
The cube has 3 records, with 0, 1 and -1 values....the effective total is 0 which is correct.
Is this not what you see in the cube? were the earlier req deleted from the cube?

Delta with reversal into cube from LO extractors

Hi SDN,
In our LO extraction design we have write-optimized DSO used as EDW as the first layer in BI. Then data is sent to Business Content infocubes, such as 0PUR_C01 though we are using their copies and instead of Update Rules/Transfer Rules, we are using PSA, Transformation, Write Optimized DSO, another transformation and onto the cube. DS and all other objects in the data flow are BI 7.
What we are not clear about is the role or ROCANCEL when passed to both STORNO and RECORDMODE and its impact on the cube after the write-optimized DSO. Some key figures are reversed for 'R' but others are not.
We had thought that 2LIS_02_ITM via a Write Optimized DSO will pass on STORNO and RECORDMODE to the cube which should have reversed all key figures in the cube if the value is 'R'. But it is not happening. Whatever key figures were reversed in the source system, they remained reversed, others are still there and adding another row in the cube with some positive values.
Can anyone shed light on this or provide reference to documentation regarding delta processing in the cube, especially from LO extractors like 2LIS_02_ITM, etc.?
Thanks
SM

Friends,
Thanks for the reply.
My question is more fundamental.
In 3.5 There was expected to be no DSO between Source system and the cube. How were the Update, add and delete handled then?
As I see it, write-optimized DSO is no hindrance because essentially the data is coming into the cube as if there was no DSO in the middle. I do not see SAP suggesting a DSO anywhere between the source and business content cubes, especially in our case dealting with 2LIS_02_ITM, SCL, etc. to handle delta.
Are you saying that no delta management is possible without inserting a DSO before the cube? Please realize that WO DSO only brings data request by request without any summation and overwrite confusion.
What I puzzled at is the lack of comprehensive unfied and detail information either in documentation or a blog.
Please advise.
SM

Error in delta loading from a planning cube

hi all,
I am using a delta load from one planning cube to another.When the changed records are of a magnitude of 100 then it is successful but when the records are of magnitude of 100000 then it stays yellow with no data records sent and eventually fails.the packet size is 20000.
any help is appreciated.

Hello Ajay,
Have you checked that your Request is closed in the planning cube? FM RSAPO_CLOSE_TRANS_REQUEST will do it
It is a customizing issue to tell the infopackage to end "green" when it has no data.
Transaction Spro ==> SAP Netweaver ==> SAP Business Information Warehouse ==> Automated Processes ==> Monitor Settings ==> Set Traffic Light Color. There you have to set the Traffic light on green if no data is available in the system.
Hope that helps
best regards
Yannick
