Delta Upload

Hi Experts,
I m going to upload Master Data via Delta-Upload.
In source system (R3) relevant data a stored within a Z-table. Z-table contains the field timestamp.
Therefore timestamp is the delta maintaining field.
In BI two InfoPackages exist - one with a Delta-initialization (with upload) and another one with Delta-Update.
First I load data with the Delta-initialization InfoPackages. As a result data are uploaded and a timestamp is set with deltaqueue in R3.
But, and here is my problem. When starting the second InfoPackage no data are selected (even the Z-table in R3 contains new data with a younger timestamp).
What am I doing wrong?
Question: The timestamp within DeltaQueue is stored like 08.10.2008 14:52:16 while timestamp in Z-table is stored in internal SAP format (20.081.008.115.348).
BR,
Thorsten

Hi Thorsten,
Maintain safety interval and try.
Work around: Instead of delta you can make ti selective full based on date(from yesterday to today) as you are loading master data only. You can write simple routine in infopackage.
Please check : [How to ... Write Infopackage selection Routine|http://sapbwneelam.blogspot.com/2007/09/how-to-write-infopackage-selection_5355.html]

Delta uploading job get cancelled in SAP R/3

question, during delta loading from SAP R/3 to BW, if the delta uploading job get cancelled twice for some reason, will I lost some delta data??
Pls advise!
Many Thanks!
rajatina.

Hi,
If your delta jobs are getting error out in BW then you don't need to worry about, because till that time your delta pointer in source system is not yet updated. But if you make any request green by chance in BW monitor then your delta pointer will get updated and you might loose some delta.
You can request repeat delta multiple times without any issue.

Thanks & Regards
prajith P

Hello
These 2 load are performed for the data loading in CRM from other SAP system like ECC. Initial download is the activity that to be performed when you want to download the master data 1st time.
Delta load is performed automatically if we make any change in the master data records.
For the more depth knowledge you can go through the below mentioned links.

3. there are already communication structure and transfer rules activated but when i am creating update rules for the ods..i am getting the message 0recordmode missing in the infosource.
4. so i went to infosource and added 0recordmode in communication structure and activated but the transfer rules in yellow colour..there was no object assigned to 0recordmode but still i activated.
5.again i went to ods and created update rules and activated (tis time i didnt get any message about 0recordmode).

RSA7 shows zero records for delta upload of 2LIS_03_BF Datasource

Dear Professionals,
I am having constant issues with inventory management DataSource (2LIS_03_BF). I scheduled delta upload in r3 production using LBWE, keeping in mind that in LBWE there is no options for posting dates, ETC... In RSA3, there are records, but when i check RSA7, it is showing 0 records. What could be the problem. Do i need to do anything/activation anywhere in LBWE or RSA7 to see the records. Please advise.

Hi,
Normally there should be a collective run which transfers data from the application-specific queues to the BW delta queue (RSA7), just like this workflow:
MCEX03 queue==> RMBWV03 (Collective run job) ==> RSA7-Delta queue => BW
It is necessary to schedule the job control regularly - see point 3 of SAP Note 505700.
Check also these SAP Notes:
869628     Constant WAITUPDA in SMQ1 and performance optimization
728687     Delta queued: No data in RSA7
527481     tRFC or qRFC calls are not processed

Routine,delta upload

Hi experts,
i am new to bw and sdn .
can u answer for my questions ,i was asked in my interview.
1)what is the scenario of start routine?
2)how to generate a report for present year and previous three years?
3)what is the mechanism behind delta upload?
thanks in advance
regards
krisna

Hi Krishna,
1) Start Routine - Start routine is executed prior to executing of transfer rules, so if there is any global variable to be used in all transfer rules then it is better to declare that in start routine.
After start routine execution is over then transfer rules r executed.
Start routine are at two levels
1. update roule
2. transfer rules
start routine is processed once per data package load .For ex : you want to eliminate a set of records based on dome criteria you can do that with start routine . But update rules or transfer rules are processed once per data record where you can manipulate each single record .
There is an internal table called data_package which will have all the data available for processing you can later store all the data in another internal table (you can declare) which can later be used in update rules .
3) Delta Upload Mechanism - Regarding the Delta upload mechanism, it's simply the mechanism that helps updating only the changed data, and not the full update. The field 0RECORDMODE determines whether the records are added to or overwritten. It determines how a record is updated in the delta process: A blank character signifies an after image, X a before image, D deletes the record and R means a reverse image.
You can check following link for details.

Filter Delta Upload from CRM into R3

Hi SAP gurus,
How can i set the filter for delta upload from CRM into R3? As far as i know, the filter settings in R3AC1 is only applicable for data exchange from the source system R3. What if i would like to filter the data where the source is CRM instead? Did i miss out anything in the configuration? I have been able to filter data coming from R3, but NOT data from CRM going into R3.
Would appreciate your help on this.
Thanks. Points will be rewarded.

Do you set all req.customizing in tr smoeac?

Delta Upload Problem

Hi All,
I have a ods which feeds the cube, i designed this to facilitate delta capability to cube.i loaded 17000 records(delta upload) to ODS and it says transfered-17000 and added-17000 but only 12000 records have been transfered to the cube and there are no routines in the update rules of cube from Ods, i am not sure why its only transfered 12000 records to cube when the added records in ODS are 17000.
Thanks,
Shetty.

Hi Shetty.
   If you are having Keys as key1 key2 key3 key4 and Qty and value. If you want to make it overwrite you have load in overwrite mode.
It works like this:
key1 key2 key3 key4 Qty value
A     B   C    D    10 100 -->> already there
if you are loading new data from Flat file in overwrite mode contains below data then,
It works like this:
key1 key2 key3 key4 Qty value
A     B   C    D    15 150
A     B   C    E    20 200
After this load your ODC data will be
key1 key2 key3 key4 Qty value
A     B   C    D    15 150
A     B   C    E    20 200
Hope it Helps

Delta upload in XI and calling Infopacakages in Inbound Proxy

Hi All
I have a scenario where File--->XI----->BW
In this scenario I have to pick a file compare and send it to BW system. Before sneding into the BW system I have to apply the logic of delta upload in XI.
Requirement: the recent file picks the data for the current week and previous week . We have to eliminate the data of the previous week and send the recent weeks data to BW in file format i.e. data of recent week will be sent eliminating the data of previous weeks.
I have one more query
How to call the 6 different infopackages in ABAP Proxy.
Do anyone know the process for doing the same??

Delta upload from external tables in BI 7.0

hi guys!
i need to create a delta upload reading the data from an external db
what are the options that i have?
there is someway to use the timestamp that i have in the source tables
and make a comparison between the timestamp in ods and the timestamp into the PSA?
i have to use the rso2 transaction or simply a DTP?
in bw i don't have the field type timestamp
but only time or date
how can i take the source timestamp into bw?
if i try to define the timestamp fields as char 14 a don't receive any data in that fields with the preview
what kind of data type i have to use?
thanks in advance
Emiliano

Dear Emiliano,
1. Have two fields in BW, one each for date and time.
2. Separate the time-stamp in the source system in to Date & Time fields separately. For this try creating a view.
3. Else, write a two small routine (for each of the two transformation) to read the time-stamp in BW.
Hope this helps!
Thnx & Regards,
Ramesh

Init and delta uploads using process chain

Hi,
I have a scenario where for the first upload i use init upload for that i have an infopackage now for the subsequent uploads i.e delta upload i get the option for the same only once i have run the init upload.
so the doubt is can i use a process chain defined to carry out the whole task?????
Regards

Hi Virat,
AS init is a one time activity, so what you can do is.
1> set the init in infopack and run the process chain.
2> remove the infopack and then include a new infopack with delta option or change the existing infopack to delta option.
3> schedule the infopack.
whatever you are expecting is not possible.
Hope I answered your question.
THanks and Regards,
Suneel

How to re-init a delta upload?

Hi experts
I have done a delta initialization, and delta updates; but after occurs some troubles and then I must do a full update. Now when i want do new deltas uploads, the system tell me that can't find the last "mark". Im try to do an "initialization with out transfer data", but the message is that already exist delta loads for the same period in the id request 25910 (this id is the first inicialization)
How can I do a re-init delta upload?
Thank you in advance

Sorry, I think that I dont understand you well..
Please check if this right: "I can delete the init with Id request 25910 (in the way that wou tell me) , and the data in this id requist NOT will be delete in the Infocube" is this true?
In need to the re-init because when I run the delta actualizations the error msg is "Nº RSBM103 - Delta upload is possible after successfull init"
Anyway, I understand that when is do a full update i lost the mark. Is this true?
Your commets are very helpful!!

What Im a doing wrong? Maybe it is the caracter FULL in the CSV-File provoking this?
Thanks for any help.
Aart

Aart-
I think your idea is correct regarding the "FULL" indicator.
Refer the SAP help document here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_ccm20/helpdata/en/index.htm
We leave this blank when doing delta uploads - that works for us.
Here is the comment from the help file to support this change:
The identifier full, if you want the CSV file to completely replace the existing catalog
If you leave this column blank, SAP Catalog Authoring Tool treats the CSV file as an update file: only those catalog objects (for example, schema, categories, items) that are contained in the CSV file are replaced. All other catalog objects remain unchanged. This means you cannot use an update to delete catalog objects.
Example
SAP CATALOG CSV 2.0 <|> full
The separator is | and this upload replaces the existing catalog.
End of the example.
Note
If you use Microsoft Excel to create a CSV file (with ; as the separator), you must ensure that the content of the first line is located in the first column (the first cell of the worksheet).
End of the note.
Regards-

How to do Delta upload and consolidate in SSM, how to use transformer.ini

Hi,
Can anybody explain me how to do Delta data upload and also how to do delta data consolidation in SAP SSM.
Also how can i create and use transformer.ini file.
Thanks and reagrds
Edited by: Himanshu Bisla on Mar 25, 2009 2:09 PM

Hi,
Where from are you planning to upload data?
When you mention a delta upload, does it mean loading new data for a new PERIOD, where no data yet existed, or loading values to measures for periods where data already exists, doing a SUM?
When loading from an external source, you use a READ command, which by default replaces existing values with those that are being loaded. If you add the parameter ADD or SUBTRACT to that IDQL command you are able to change this default behaviour to enable delta loads (with SUM or SUBTRACTION operations).
As for the CONSOLIDATIONS, you can define a date range for the consolidation, or run it for a single period (month, quarter) if needed, or restrict the number of measures you want to consolidate. There is no way to automatically define that only the measures and periods that have new data will be consolidated. This has to be made explicit in the CONSOLIDATE instruction.
Regarding the Transformer.ini, are you planning to use PAS as an ETL tool? Unfortunately, I can only point you to the information that is available on the PAS Help, but that's probably where you found the reference to this function in the first place...
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Ricardo

After deletion ODS change log, Delta upload OK?

Hi all,
Now I am reducing data from BW server. For this purpose, I will delete ODS change log. Both of data "from ODS" and "to ODS" are uploaded by Delta Upload.
If I delete change log after last delta initialization, is there any problem to next delta upload?
For example, the last delta initializing was done April 1. And I delete the change log up to April 30. After this operation, can be expected any problem to Delta upload?
Bamboo Shampoo

I dont think it will cause any issue with next delta loads.
Data goes from ODS to its targets from change log table.
But I think better have strategy like..'delete change log data only for requests older than say...1 month or 2 months..'
so that if u have problems with recent data loads..u can reload easily..
u can also try cleaning up old requests from the PSA tables in the system..
cheers,
Vishvesh
