Difference between transfer structure and extraction structure?

Hi Gurus,
Structurally what is the difference between transfer structure and extraction structure?
I have observed that both these structures have the same fields.
Then why do we need two structures in source system?
Please clarify ...
Thanks in advance

These links describe the differences between the two.

Relation between LIS datasources and Extract Structures

Roberto,
Your detailed information does make it very clear why the SAP creates 2 SnnBIW1, SnnnBIW2 tables, and a structure.
I have another question related to this process.
Once you create a datasource from the custom LIS structures, you can assign a Development class to that datasource.
But the automatically created 2 tables and the structure are local objects, and you cannot reassign them to other object. That is fine because when you export/import the transport, all the other objects are also transported.
But when we enhance the extract structures, it creates a structure ZASnnnBIWS which also HAS TO BE a local object. This creates a problem of how do we transport these changes?
I would appreciate your insight into this.
Thanks
InduBala

I check from LBWE maintenance structure column, and the fields are there on the left hand side for the selection criteria.
How would I check "..fields you have enhaced are ready to use...." from LBWE.
From RSA6, I would doubleclick on the LIS datasource, and I see no enhanced fields and therefore could not see if they are hidden.
"Did you check in LBWE if your strcutures have the fields ready to use?" How would I do this? Maybe this is the problem.
Thanks

Difference between source file and source structure

Hello,
I have a source file with around 60 fields. But I need to upload only 5 fields. I defined a source structure in LSMW with 5 fields and specified the file with 60 fields as the source file. But when the data is read, only 2 out of 5 fields are read. What should I do?
Thank you

Hi !!
In case you are selecting only limited fields form a file with more fields in LSMW . Please apply following consideration :
1. Add a dummy field in your source structure to make the whole structure size equal to the total width of all fields in the source file. This is because in LSMW the file is read for the length of the SOURCE STRUCTURE width only . So if i want to read only field3 in following example i still need toa dda dummy field to ensure LSMW reads a total width of source file as the FIELD3 is at absolute end of the source file from length 40 to 60 only .
For example :
if my source file ahs following firve fields : FIELD1 (10) , FIELD2(30),FIELD3 (20) .
Declare your source structure as : FIELD3 (20),FIELD_DUMMY (40) .
2. When you deifne the source file in LSMW step 7 take care to notify whether you have field names at start of file or the field order is same as
source structure .
This should close your issue or get in touch for more here buddy

Structural Authorization: Difference Between AUTSW-DFCON and AUTSW-ORGPD?

Dear All,
Can anyone explain to me the difference between AUTSW-DFCON and AUTSW-ORGPD in tbale T77S0?
And what is the relationship between these two switches?
Thanks!!

HI Mr. potato,
working off dilek's informative post you may be considering ? context vs non-context?
this image explains how context problems arise in HCM. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/b3/bfb83b5b831f3be10000000a114084/content.htm
I would say generally, when an organization decides to use structural authorizations, they also need to take into account a "context solution". This is most frequently used to "lockdown" how different parts of the HR organization has different authority access to different groups of employees (potentially overlapping). As an HR manager i might have full read access on IT0002 for the entire company (root org), but IT0008 view access only for a sub-org unit.
in this case you need to use the DFCON switch. the 'most restrictive setting for dfcon is value 2. the most iberal setting is, 4. Generally, you need to test all 4 to figure out what works for you.
settings for dfcon:

Difference between Append structure and include structure

hi can anyone tell me the difference between include structure and append structure with respect to tables defined in ABAP dictionary?
Also how to create them in ABAP dictionary?

HI
INCLUDE:
Includes are used to group fields and insert them together in a table or structure.
An include program has two main functions:
It contains code which can be used by several different programs.
It helps you to modularize programs, which consist of many different logically related parts. Each of these parts is stored as a separate include program.
Include programs improve the readability of programs and make maintenance easier.
Include reports contain rolled out parts of reports. They are called by the main report, and can only be run in conjunction with the main report.
APPEND:
Append structures are used for enhancements that are not included in the standard. This includes special developments, country versions and adding customer fields to any tables or structures.
An append structure is a structure that is assigned to exactly one table or structure. There can be more than one append structure for a table or structure.
The following enhancements can be made to a table or structure TAB with an append structure:
Insert new fields in TAB,
Define foreign keys for fields of TAB that already exist,
Attach search helps to fields of TAB that already exist
Just have a look at this link:

Difference between include structure and Append structure

Could you please tell me
I have bsis table and it contains append structure in 4.7 SAP System.
my program in 4.7 system contains internal table which used same structure of bsis table ( which contains additonal field in its append structure ).
I need to have same table structure in 4.6 C because I am copying the same program into 4.6 system.
As I could not append structure to bsis table in 4.6C SAP system,
instead of that shall I add the field or Shall include the structure to run .
What is the difference between Include structure and Append structure ( I forgot )
How to achieve this please help me ?

Hi ,
As you know append structure can be used only once in table ,that to at last of all entries,
Append structures are used for enhancements that are not included in the standard. This includes special developments, country versions and adding customer fields to any tables or structures.
An append structure is a structure that is assigned to exactly one table or structure. There can be more than one append structure for a table or structure.
The following enhancements can be made to a table or structure TAB with an append structure:
Insert new fields in TAB,
Define foreign keys for fields of TAB that already exist,
Attach search helps to fields of TAB that already exist,
These enhancements are part of the append structure, i.e. they must always be changed and transported with the append structure.
When a table or structure is activated, all the append structures of the table are searched and the fields of these append structures are added to the table or structure. Foreign keys and search help attachments added using the append structure are also added to the table. If an append structure is created or changed, the table or structure assigned to it is also adjusted to these changes when the append structure is activated.
Since the order of the fields in the ABAP Dictionary can differ from the order of the fields on the database, adding append structures or inserting fields in such append structures does not result in a table conversion.
The customer creates append structures in the customer namespace. The append structure is thus protected against overwriting during an upgrade. The fields in the append structure should also reside in the customer namespace, that is the field names should begin with ZZ or YY. This prevents name conflicts with fields inserted in the table by SAP.
The new versions of the standard tables are imported after an upgrade, and the fields, foreign key definitions and search help attachments contained in the append structures are added to the new standard tables at activation.
A standard table contains the fields Field 1, Field 2 and Field 3. An append structure containing the fields ZZA and ZZB is defined for this table. After activating the table, the corresponding database table contains fields Field 1, Field 2, Field 3, ZZA and ZZB.
Further Remarks:
An append structure can only be assigned to exactly one table or structure. If you want to append the same fields to several tables or structures, you can store these fields in an include structure. In this case you must create an append structure for each of these tables or structures and include the include structure there.
Adding an append structure to an SAP standard table is supported by the Modification Assistant.
If you want to insert a field that is to be delivered with the R/3 standard in the next Release in the customer system in advance, you must include it in the table itself as a repair. If you include such a field in an append structure for the table, it will occur twice when the new standard table is imported. This will result in an activation error.
No append structures may be added to tables with long fields (data types VARC, LCHR or LRAW). This is because a long field must always be the last field in the table. However, structures with long fields can be enhanced with append structures.
If a table or structure with an append structure is copied, the fields of the append structure become fields of the target table. Foreign key definitions and search help attachments appended with the append structure are copied to the target table.
Foreign keys for the appended fields must be defined within the append structure. Fields of the table or structure assigned to the append structure may be defined when assigning the key field and foreign key field.
Indexes on the appended fields must be defined in the original table.
A table or structure TAB can only be enhanced with new foreign keys or search help attachments using an append structure. You therefore cannot change an existing foreign key definition or search help attachment for a field of TAB with the append structure.
Thanks
Manju

Datasources and Extract structure

Hi guys,
I am pretty confused about DataSources and Extract structure.
Can someone please explain it me in simple words.

Hi Zubin,
Data Source is a consoliated list of fields available and the extract structure is a data dictionary structure which illustrates the fields with additional technical elements like DATA ELEMENT , DOMAIN ans so on...
To make it more clear look at this description from F4 help:
A DataSource is an object for retrieving data. The DataSource is localized in the OLTP system.
It has
an extract structure,
an extraction type, and
an extraction method.
The extract structure describes the fields of the internal table that contain the extracted data. The extraction type describes which type of extractor the DataSource uses. The extraction method extracts the data and transfers it into an internal table with the same type as the extract structure.
The DataSource also contains information on the type of data that it stages, for example, attributes, transactional data, hierachies, or texts. It can also support different types of data update.
Extract Structure for a DataSource
The extraction structure for a data source shows the format in which the DataSource, or the extractor for the DataSource, transfers its data.
A data element must be assigned to each field of the extraction structure. This allows in the Business Information Warehouse an intelligent mapping between field names and InfoObjects using just this data element.
The extract structure must be created in the DDIC as a dictionary structure or transparent table. A view is not permitted here since it would then not give you the option to add an append.
Appends enable you to convert your individual requirements and own "Business Logic" in the extraction process. You can fill the fields in the append using function enhancements.
Hope this helps
Thanks,
Raj

DataSources and extract structures generation

Hi,
How would I generate the DataSources and extract structures using transaction LBWE? It seems that there are no push buttons to say to generate the DataSources and extract structures from LBWE? Would clicking on the DataSources and extract structures and click on the continue button be enough?
Thanks

I check from LBWE maintenance structure column, and the fields are there on the left hand side for the selection criteria.
How would I check "..fields you have enhaced are ready to use...." from LBWE.
From RSA6, I would doubleclick on the LIS datasource, and I see no enhanced fields and therefore could not see if they are hidden.
"Did you check in LBWE if your strcutures have the fields ready to use?" How would I do this? Maybe this is the problem.

Difference between backup, sync and transfer?

I've read the iPad book and a few Apple tech notes on this but am still not 100% clear on the differences. It seems we can sync, backup and transfer our iPad data to our computers.
Frankly, I don't understand why there isn't just one process that "backs up" your iPad to your computer so there is a mirror copy of data in case you need to restore your iPad, existing or new one if lost.
Can some one summarize the difference between the 3 and a strategy to have ALL your iPad info on your computer? I use MobileMe BTW so my contacts and calendar are always synced using Push.
Thanks. Steven

A backup only backs up up certain items. Other items are synced from your library and other places. See the following for what is in a backup:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079
The transfer only transfers/copies iTunes purchases to a computer. It is useful when you buy items directly from the itunes store from your iPad. It is also very useful when your computer crashed and you do not have a backup. Thus, you can transfer music (which you can't redownload for free unlike app where your can).
Unless you cancel it, a backup is made every time you sync. Doing a backup alone is useful if you computer crashed and you do not have a backup. That way you can, along with doing other things like transferring purchases, get your iPad back to syncing with a "new" computer.

Difference betwin Allacation sttucture and source structure

< MODERATOR: Message locked. Please post in the correct forum. >
Hi friends any one explian the difference betwin allocation structure and source structure.

Hi
allocation structure defines the cost elements to be settled by cost elements. A source assignment is assigned to the allocation structure.
The source structure is used to settle costs incurred on the sender to various receivers, split by cost element. In this way, the source information is retained.
The source assignment defines the assignment of the debit cost element(s) to a receiver. More than one source assignments are summarized in one source structure

Difference between Field symbols and field group

Hi experts,
Can you please advice me what is the difference between field symbols and field groups.
Thanks in advance,
Logu.

Field symbols: are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
Field Groups:
A field group is a user-defined grouping of characteristics and basic key figures from the EC-EIS or EC-BP field catalog.
Use
The field catalog contains the fields that are used in the aspects. As the number of fields grows, the field catalog becomes very large and unclear. To simplify maintenance of the aspects, you can group fields in a field group. You can group the fields as you wish, for example, by subject area or responsibility area. A field may be included in several field groups.
When maintaining the data structure of an aspect, you can select the field group that contains the relevant characteristics and basic key figures. This way you limit the number of fields offered.
A field group combines several existing fields together under one name
like
FIELD-GROUPS: fg.
then you can use one insert statement to insert values in fields of field-group.
INSERT f1 f2 ... INTO fg.
Field symbols
If u have experience with 'C', then understand this to be similar to a pointer.
It is used to reference another variable dynamically. So this field symbol will simply point to some other variable. and this pointer can be changed at runtime.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS>.
DATA FIELD VALUE 'X'.
ASSIGN FIELD TO <FS>.
WRITE <FS>.

EXACT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FULL LOAD AND REPAIRFULL LOAD?

HI Champ,
Can anyone explain me the exact difference between full load and Repairfull load?Give e some senario where we can go for this?Please.....
10zin

Hi,
Full repair can be said as a Full with selections. But the main use or advantage of Full repair load is that it wont affect delta loads in the system. If you load a full to a target with deltas running you again will have to initialize them for deltas to continue. But if you do full repair it wont affect deltas.
This is normally done we when we lose some data or there is data mismatch between source system and BW.
Check the OSS Note 739863 'Repairing data in BW' for all the details
Symptom
Some data is incorrect or missing in the PSA table or in the ODS object (Enterprise Data Warehouse layer).
There may be a number of reasons for this problem: Errors in the relevant application, errors in the user exit, errors in the DeltaQueue, handling errors in the customers posting procedure (for example, a change in the extract structure during production operation if the DeltaQueue was not yet empty; postings before the Delta Init was completed, and so on), extractor errors, unplanned system terminations in BW and in R/3, and so on.
Solution
Read this note in full BEFORE you start actions that may repair your data in BW. Contact SAP Support for help with troubleshooting before you start to repair data.
BW offers you the option of a full upload in the form of a repair request (as of BW 3.0B). If you want to use this function, we recommend that you use the ODS object layer.
Note that you should only use this procedure if you have a small number of incorrect or missing records. Otherwise, we always recommend a reinitialization (possibly after a previous selective deletion, followed by a restriction of the Delta-Init selection to exclude areas that were not changed in the meantime).
1. Repair request: Definition
If you flag a request as a repair request with full update as the update mode, it can be updated to all data targets, even if these already contain data from delta initialization runs for this DataSource/source system combination. This means that a repair request can be updated into all ODS objects at any time without a check being performed. The system supports loading by repair request into an ODS object without a check being performed for overlapping data or for the sequence of the requests. This action may therefore result in duplicate data and must thus be prepared very carefully.
The repair request (of the "Full Upload" type) can be loaded into the same ODS object in which the 'normal' delta requests run. You will find this request under the "Repair Request" option in the InfoPackage (Maintenance) menu.
2. Prerequisites for using the "Repair Request" function
2.1. Troubleshooting
Before you start the repair action, you should carry out a thorough analysis of the possible cause of the error to make sure that the error cannot recur when you execute the repair action. For example, if a key figure has already been updated incorrectly in the OLTP system, it will not change after a reload into BW. Use transaction RSA3 (Extractor Checker) in the source system for help with troubleshooting. Another possible source of the problem may be your user exit. To ensure that the user exit is correct, first load a user exit with a Probe-Full request into the PSA table and check whether the data is correct. If it is not correct: Search for the error in the exit user. If you do not find it, we recommend that you deactivate the user exit for testing purposes and request a new Full Upload. It If the data arrives correctly, it is highly probable that the error is indeed in the user exit.
We always recommend that you load the data into the PSA table in the first step and check the result there.
2.2. Analyze the effects on the downstream targets
Before you start the Repair request into the ODS object, make sure that the incorrect data records are selectively deleted from the ODS object. However, before you decide on selective deletion, you should read the Info Help for the "Selective Deletion" function, which you can access by pressing the extra button on the relevant dialog box. The activation queue and the ChangeLog remain unchanged during the selective deletion of the data from the ODS object, which means that the incorrect data is still in the change log afterwards. After the selective deletion, you therefore must not reconstruct the ODS object if it is reconstructed from the ChangeLog. (Reconstruction is usually from the PSA table but, if the data source is the ODS object itself, the ODS object is reconstructed from its ChangeLog). You MUST read the recommendations and warnings about this (press the "Info" button).
You MUST also take into account the fact that the delta for the downstream data targets is created from the changelog. If you perform selective deletion and then reload data into the deleted area, this may result in data inconsistencies in the downstream data targets.
If you only use MOVE and do not use ADD for updates in the ODS object, selective deletion may not be required in some cases (for example, if incorrect records only have to be changed, rather than deleted). In this case, the DataMart delta also remains intact.
2.3. Analysis of the selections
You must be very precise when you perform selective deletion: Some applications do not provide the option of selecting individual documents for the load process. Therefore, you must first ensure that you can load the same range of documents into BW as you would delete from the ODS object. This note provides some application-specific recommendations to help you "repair" the incorrect data records.
If you updated the data from the ODS object into the InfoCube, you can also delete it there using the "Selective deletion" function. However, if it is compressed at document level there and deletion is no longer possible, you must delete the InfoCube content and fill the data in the ODS object again after repair.
You can only perform this action after a thorough analysis of all effects of selective data deletion. We naturally recommend that you test this first in the test system.
The procedure generally applies for all SAP applications/extractors. The application determines the selections. For example, if you cannot use the document number for selection but you can select documents for an entire period, then you are forced to delete and then update documents for the entire period in the data target. Therefore, it is important to look first at the selections in the InfoPackage exactly before you delete data from the data target.
Some applications have additional special features:
Logistics cockpit: As preparation for the repair request, delete the SetUp table (if you have not already done so) and fill it selectively with concrete document numbers (or other possible groups of documents determined by the selection). Execute the Repair request.
Caution: You can currently use the transactions that fill SetUp tables with reconstruction data to select individual documents or entire ranges of documents (at present, it is not possible to select several individual documents if they are not numbered in sequence).
FI: The Repair request for the Full Upload is not required here. The following efficient alternatives are provided: In the FI area, you can select documents that must be reloaded into BW again, make a small change to them (for example, insert a period into the assignment text) and save them -> as a result, the document is placed in the delta queue again and the previously loaded document under the same number in the BW ODS object is overwritten. FI also has an option for sending the documents selectively from the OLTP system to the BW system using correction programs (see note 616331).
3. Repair request execution
How do you proceed if you want to load a repair request into the data target? Go to the maintenance screen of the InfoPackage (Scheduler), set the type of data upload to "Full", and select the "Scheduler" option in the menu -> Full Request Repair -> Flag request as repair request -> Confirm. Update the data into the PSA and then check that it is correct. If the data is correct, continue to update into the data targets."

Difference between Session method and call transaction

Hi,
please give me the differences between session method and call transaction,
briefly explaining synchronus , asynchronus, process, update.
Thanks in advance

Hi Vijay Kumar
CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
CALL TRANSACTION
BATCH INPUT METHOD:
This method is also called as CLASSICAL METHOD.
Features:
Asynchronous processing.
Synchronous Processing in database update.
Transfer data for more than one transaction.
Batch input processing log will be generated.
During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
Features:
Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
Transfer data for a single transaction.
Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
No batch input processing log is generated.
http://www.sap-img.com/abap/difference-between-batch-input-and-call-transaction-in-bdc.htm
Among the two methods call transaction is better compared to session bcoz data transfer is faster in it.
Differences between call transaction and session.
Session Method:
1) Data is not updated in the database table until the session is processed.
2) No sy-subrc is returned.
3) Error log is created for error records.
4) Updation is always synchronous.
Call Transaction Method:
1) Immediate updation in the database table.
2) sy-subrc is returned.
3)Error need to be handled explicitly.
4) updation can be synchronous as well as asynchronous.
2) ya u can use using the N mode no screen.
3)u can't handle multiple transaction in call transaction.
4) u can handle multiple transaction in session using the BDC_INSERT fm.
5)When u go to SM35 u can able to see the error records.
Which is best?
That depends on your requirement. Both of them have there advantages.
According to the situation u can choose any one of these.

1) synchronous processing.
2) can tranfer large amount of data.
3) processing is slower.
4) error log is created
5) data is not updated until session is processed.
Call transaction.
1) asynchronous processing
2) can transfer small amount of data
3) processing is faster.
4) errors need to be handled explicitly
5) data is updated automatically
For session method,these are the function modules to b used.
BDC_OPEN_GROUP
BDC_INSERT
BDC_CLOSE_GROUP
For call transaction,this is the syntax.
CALL TRANSACTION TCODE USING BDCDATA
MODE A or E or N
UPDATE A or S
MESSAGES INTO MESSTAB.
Take a scenario where we need to post documents in FB01 and the input file has say 2000 records (2000 documents, not line items in FB01 but 2000 records)
In the BDC call transaction method
We call the transaction FB01 2000 times (once for each record posting) and if the processing fails in record no 3 it can be captured and start with reocord 4.
Eg: Loop at itab.
call transaction FB01
capture errors
endloop.
In the session method.
We do not explicity call the transaction 2000 times, but all the records are appeneded into a session and this session is stored. The processinf of the session is done wwhenever the user wants it to be done. Hence the errors cannot be captured in the program itself

Batch Input Session method is asynchronous as told by others here. But the advantage of this is that you have all the error messages and the data for each transaction held persistantly. You don't have to code anything for processing them or writing the logs.
But at the same time, the same feature can be disadvantageous if you need to react to an error or if there are too many errors to manually correct in a session. Since the session are created in the program and its execution is done seperately, you loose the trackability of such transactions.
With a call transaction, what was a disadvantage above will become an advantage. Call transaction immediately gives you messages back and you can react to it in your program. But the disadvantage is that, if you have several hundreds of transactions to run, running them from within the program can be resource crunching affair. It will hamper the system performance and you cannot really distribute the load. Of course, you have some mechanisms with which you can overcome this, but you will have to code for it. Also, storing the messages and storing the errored transaction data etc will have to be handled by you in the program. Whereas, in batch input session, your program's job is to just create the session, after that everything is standard SAP system's responsibility.
Ideally, you should do a call transaction if the resources are not a problem and if it fails, put the errored transaction into a session.
You can decide based on the data volume that your BDC is processing. If data volume is high go for session else call transaction will do.The call transaction updates will be instantaneous where as session needs to be processed explictly after creation.
Session Method
1) Session method supports both small amount of data aswell as large amount of data
2) data processing is asynchronus and data updation is synchronus.
3) it process multiple apllication while perfomaning validations.
4) in session method data will be updated in data base only after processing session only.
5) system provide by default logfile for handling error records.
6) it supports both foreground aswell as background process
in bdc we use FM ...
bdc_open_group " for creating Session
bdc_insert " adding transaction and bdcdata table for updating database
bdc_close_group " for closing Session
Call Transaction
1) Call transaction exclusively for small amout of data
2) it supports only one apllication while perfoming validations
3) there is no default logfile, We can explicitly provide logic for creating logfile for handling error records.
we can create logfile by using structure....BDCMSGCOLL
4) it doesn't support background processing.
5) data processing is synchronous and Data updation is Synchronous( default), in
this method also supports daya updation in asynchronus process also.
syntax:
Call transaction <transaction-name> using BDCDATA
mode <A/N/E>
update <L/A/S>
messages into BDCMSGCOLL.
BDC:
Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.
Features :
BDC is an automatic procedure.
This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is available in electronic medium.
BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.
Types of BDC :
CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
CALL TRANSACTION
BATCH INPUT METHOD:
This method is also called as CLASSICAL METHOD.
Features:
Asynchronous processing.
Synchronous Processing in database update.
Transfer data for more than one transaction.
Batch input processing log will be generated.
During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
Features:
Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
Transfer data for a single transaction.
Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
No batch input processing log is generated.
