Difference between transferred and added records

Hello all,
I am aware that delta loads bring in changes. Although now I would like to understand why a delta load would transfer a given number of records and not add any?
Thank you and kind regards,
Keith

Hi Keith,
I am not quite sure about your question.
A delta will select all changed (modified, deleted) and newly created records since your last extraction. That is just standard behaviour. In the user exit (at extraction time), in the (start) routines of transfer and update rules you will be able to add/delete/change records to/from/in the datapackage as well.
Hope this helps!
regards
Siggi

Transfered and Added records at DSO level

Hello Experts,
I am always confused about Transfered and Added records at DSO level. While I was testing DSO data I observed that, Transferred records are after Transformation before End routine. Added records are after End routine added to the New data table. Can u please put some light on this.
Many thanks,
Zakir Khan.

Hi
The Transferred Records column displays the number of records transferred to the BI system. The records are usually written to the PSA first of all.
The Added Records column displays the number of records that were written into the InfoProvider. This number can differ from the number of transferred records if records were filtered out or added during the transformation

Transfered and Added Records

Hi friends,
I know that the added records can be less than the transfered records. A substantiated discussion was found in one of the earlier threads. But, I have a situation where added records are more than the transfered records. RSA3 shows me 1000 records but, added records in the cube shows 1032 records.
1. Under what circumstances can this happen?
2. How to check where the problem is in this case?
Thanks in advance
Subray Hegde

Hi,
Probably the records are split in your case in the update rules and hence more no. of added records.

Manage ODS : Difference of Transferred Records and Added Records

Hi there,
When I click on Manage ODS , I have the following fields
Transferred Records and Added Records.
Please advice the difference

Hi,
Transferred Record coloumn indicated how many records were tranferred from the source system to BW,means how many records were extracted at that point of time and another Column indicates that the total number of records added to your data target.these two cloumn vales may not be same for all the time,becoz if you have filters at the update rule level....in this case numbers records tranfered and numbers records added might be different.......
Transferred refers to the number of records that are transferred from the datasource (arrive in BW). Added is the number records inserted into the ODS. Both can be different numbers, like due to any processing of the data.
Added records refer to which is really inserted in ODS (your start routine, for example, can reduce the number of transferred records by deleting something!)
Ex
transferred records means the total records from source e.g ods. say data coming from ods
docnumber docitem customer qty
001 1 x 10
001 2 y 20
002 1 x 30 (3 records)
and your infocube has char customer and keyfigure qty, so
record added
customer qty
x 40
y 20 (2 records)
so here you have transferred records = 3 and added records = 2

Difference i transfered records and added records

Hi friends,
I have loaded data into ODS and it was succesful,but when i check in the Requests tab in mangae i found that number of records transferd is 4000 but number of records added is just 1401. can anyone please advise me where ami going wrong.
Regards
Ananth

Hi,
The reason they could be different for an ODS is because in an ODS the record is identified based on the key fields.
For example
If I have GL posting document wherein the Posting document no. is the key field in the ODS. I may have modified the same GL posting document in R/3 for 6 times but wben it is uploaded into an ODS it will just contain one record for the final staus of the GL posting document.
So in this case even if 6 records are transferred, only one record will be added to the ODS.
As a result it is not always necessary that there might always be something wrong when the transferred and added records are different.
But for ODS it is important that the key field is correctly identified, if that is not the case you might have records being overwritten (transferred records more than added records) which might be wrong.
So I would suggest you to check the Key fields, and if your totals match with R/3 or the source data.
Hope it helps
Cheers

What's the difference between Transferred Records and Added Records?

When right click an ODS or a cube to select Manage, then under the 3rd tab called Requests, there are two columns called Transferred Records and Added Records, what's the difference between these two?
Thanks

Hello KeLviN,
How r u ?
Consider a realtime example.
Assume a transfer of Transactional Data from R/3(with PSA) which is having Unit values in it.
Now, I found in RSA3 2844168 of records. In BW I saw one Data Packet with 306 error records(because of a UNIT value is not available in BW T006 table, Eg. YDD) which are automatically collected in PSA. Now in the Monitor screen you could see 2 Monitor status with GREEN Signals for 2 set of data.
1. with 2843862 records
2. with 306 records
Now, if u manage the Data Target you will get 2844168 in the Transferred Records & 2843862 in the Added Records. and the 306 error records are in the PSA.
Hope this is clear.
Best Regards....

Transferred records and added records

in Cube manager, I see the number of transferred records and added records in each request are always different.
what's the exactly means of those two field ? I guess added records is record loaded into cube without any duplicated, right?

HR deals with the INFOTYPES which are similar to Tables in General ABAP.
There are different ways of fetching data from these infotypes.
There are different areas in HR LIKE Personal Admn, Orgn Management, Benefits, Time amangement, Event Management, Payroll etc
Infotypes for these areas are different from one another area.
storing of records data in each type of area is different
LDBS like PNP are used in HR programing.
Instead of Select.. we use some ROUTINES and PROVIDE..ENDPROVIDE.. etc
and in the case of Pay roll we use Clusters and we Import and Export them for data fetching.
On the whole Normal ABAP is different from HR abap.

Orgn related Infotypes start with HRP1000 to HRP1999.
All custom developed infotypes stsrat with PA9000 onwards.
In payroll processing we use Clusters like PCL1,2,3 and 4.
Instead of Select query we use PROVIDE and ENDPROVIDE..
You have to assign a Logical Database in the attributes PNP.

And finally,
Few notes are below:
InfoSets in the HR Application
You can use SAP Query in HR to report on HR data. Queries are maintained as described in Creating Queries. The special features of queries created for HR are described in Maintaining Queries in the Human Resources Application. The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the described procedure inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes.
InfoSet management in SAP Query is also used for InfoSet Query. For further information, see Functions for Managing InfoSets.
If you want to create InfoSets for HR, you can use logical databases PNP, PNPCE, PAP, and PCH (see HR Logical Databases). The database you must use to create your InfoSet depends on the component in which the data you want to report on is stored.
The reports you can execute using InfoSets based on logical databases PNP (or PNPCE) or PCH are similar, but differ in that they can select different objects. The following table describes the connection between the logical database, and the infotypes you can include in an InfoSet. It also provides you with one or two examples of reports that you can execute using the appropriate InfoSets.
Logical database PNP/PNPCE* PCH PAP
Selection of Persons Objects from Personnel Planning Applicants
Infotypes that can be included in the InfoSet Infotypes for· Personnel Administration (0000-0999) · Time Management (2000-2999) · Payroll infotypes · Infotypes for Personnel Planning objects that can be related to persons If the object type is specified:· Infotypes for the object type · Infotypes for objects that can be related to the specified object typeIf the object type is not specified:· All infotypes · Infotypes for Recruitment (4000-4999)· Some infotypes for Personnel Administration (such as 0001 and 0002)
· Customer infotypes
Reporting examples · Selection of all persons who participated in a specific business event, output of prices for reserved business events · Selection of all persons assigned to a specific personnel area, output of qualifications held by these persons · Selection of all business events held in London in March, output of all persons who participated in these business events · Selection of all positions assigned to a specific organizational unit, output of all persons assigned to the positions · Selection of all applicants hired last year to work on special projects, output of addresses for the applicants selected
Logical database PNPCE (PNP Concurrent Employment) functions just like logical database PNP. The procedure for creating InfoSets is also the same. It only becomes significant if you work with Concurrent Employment.
Creating InfoSets
The maintenance procedure for HR InfoSets differs from the procedure described so far in this section inasmuch as HR data fields are grouped together in infotypes. To set up an InfoSet for the HR application, proceed as follows:
1. On the initial screen for maintaining InfoSets, enter a name for the InfoSet and choose Create.
2. On the next screen, enter a name for the InfoSet and select one of the HR logical databases in accordance with your reporting requirements.
Customer infotypes can be created on all HR logical databases. In each individual case, therefore, you must decide which database to select so that you can report on customer infotypes.
This screen enables you to enter an authorization group. All of the queries that are subsequently created using this InfoSet can only be executed by persons who have this authorization group.
3. Choose .
This takes you to the Infotype Selection for InfoSet screen. You now have the option of creating field groups and assigning fields as required for non-HR InfoSets. Field groups that correspond to infotypes and already contain fields, however, are always created for HR InfoSets. The field groups are displayed in an overview tree in the top right section of the screen.
The infotypes that you included in the InfoSet are displayed in an overview tree on the left of the screen. The infotype fields that are already included in field groups are displayed in a different color, and the corresponding field group ID is displayed.
In the standard system, a field group is created automatically for each infotype that you included in the InfoSet (a field group corresponds to an infotype).
In the standard system, each field group contains the infotype-specific fields. To ensure that working with the InfoSet is as easy as possible, you are advised to restrict your use of fields in each field group to those you really require. This means you should remove fields that are not required.
An infotype's fields must only be assigned to the pertinent field group. Make sure this assignment is correct. If the assignment is incorrect, the InfoSet could be rendered unusable.
When an InfoSet is created, the following fields are transferred automatically to the first field group:
§ Logical database PNPCE or PNP Personnel number
§ Logical database PAP Applicant number
§ Logical database PCH Object ID, plan version, and object type
6. Determine the fields that must be included in the field groups of your InfoSet. If you require further information, see Assigning Fields to a Field Group.
If you want, you can change the default sequence of field groups and fields as required using Drag&Drop.
7. To save the InfoSet, choose .
8. To generate the InfoSet, choose .
On the Change InfoSet (InfoSet name) screen, you can choose Edit ® Change infotype selection to add more infotypes to the InfoSet, or to remove infotypes from the InfoSet. Remember to regenerate the InfoSet afterwards.
This screen also enables you to update InfoSets if, for example, the system contains new additional fields for specific key values. To do so, choose InfoSet ® Additional functions ® Update additional HR fields.
9. Go back to the initial screen for InfoSet maintenance.
10. Choose User group assignment.
11. Select a user group, and save your entry.
sample code

GET pernr.
rp_provide_from_frst p0000 space pn-begda pn-endda.

Difference between classic and ECC pca

Hi All,
Could someone please tell me what is the difference between Classic and ECC PCA?
Regards
Suresh

Hi
Enhancement of new general ledger flexibility, that is you can enter user-defined fields and update the corresponding totals (Profit Center / Segment / Region). Many standard reports can evaluate the information from the user-defined fields.
Due to the new document splitting function (Online Split) you can create financial statements, if required, at the company code level as well as for entities, such as the Profit centers / Segment.
Using the u201CDocument splittingu201D function (online document split), you can create balance sheets for company codes as well as for further entities such as the profit center . The balance is then set to 0 for each document for the profit center.
There are no longer any time-consuming reconciliation tasks between FI and CO for the end of period, since in real-time in Controlling, the system transfers cross entity processes into the new general ledger.
Transactions 3KEH and 3KEI from the classic Profit Center Accounting for maintaining proposal profit centers for balance sheet and P&L accounts are no longer used to set the profit center.
Display of receivables and payable's per profit center real time ( if document splitting is active).
Detailed information for the setting the Profit Center accounting in the New General Ledger:
Define the update of the characteristics u201CProfit Centeru201D and u201CPartner Profit Centeru201D in the ledger by selecting the scenario u201CProfit center updateu201D.
Define the field u201CProfit centeru201D as a splitting characteristic in the document splitting.
Set the u201CZero balanceu201D indicator again for the added field u201CProfit centeru201D and you therefore have to create balance sheets on the profit center.
Activate the required entry field check to ensure that the profit center is set in all postings.
EC-PCA Profit Center Accounting u2013 Profit center accounting forms an interface between the operative controlling (CO) applications and the Enterprise Controlling (EC) module It reflects the actual and plan postings from operative controlling and settlements components with which it is in targeted in real-time. It then summarizes this data according to profit centers, which reflect the internal structure of areas of responsibility within the company code

What is the difference between MOVE and WRITE TO ststement?

Hi
What is the difference between MOVE and WRITE TO ststement?
When do we use both of them?
Thank You

Hi,
MOVE
Syntax
MOVE source {TO|?TO} destination.
destination {=|?=} source.
Effect
Both these statements assign the content of the operand source to the data object destination. The variants with the language element TO or the assignment operator = are valid for all assignments between operands that are not reference variables, and for assignments between reference variables for which the static type of source is more specific than or the same as the static type of destination(narrowing cast).
Variants with the language element ?TO or the assignment operator ?= (casting operator ) must be used if the source and destination are reference variables and the static type of source is more general than the static type of destination (widening cast). For assignments between operands that are not reference variables, use of the question mark ? is not permitted.
The data object destination can be any data object that can be listed at a write position, and the data object source can be a data object, a predefined function or a functional method (as of release 6.10). The data type of the data object destination must either be compatible with the data type of source, or it must be possible to convert the content of source into the data type of destination according to one of the conversion rules.
Notes
If source and/or destination are field symbols, then, as in all ABAP commands, the system works with the content of the data objects to which the field symbols point. The actual pointer content of a field symbol can only be changed using the statement ASSIGN or the addition ASSIGNING when processing internal tables (value semantics). If source and destination are reference variables, the reference contained in source is assigned to destination (reference semantics).
Strings and internal tables are addressed internally using references. When assignments are made between strings and between internal tables (as of release 6.10), only the reference is transferred, for performance reasons. After the assignment, the actual string or the actual table body of the source as well as the target object are addressed (sharing). When the object is accessed to change it, the sharing is canceled and a copy of the content is made. The sharing is displayed in the memory consumption display of the ABAP debugger and in the Memory Inspector tool (as of release 6.20).
Obsolete Form: MOVE PERCENTAGE
Exceptions
Catchable Exceptions
CX_SY_CONVERSION_NO_NUMBER

Runtime Error: MOVE_TO_LOOP_REF
Write
Syntax Diagram
WRITE - TO
Syntax
WRITE {source|(source_name)} TO destination
 [int_format_options].
Effect:
This statement assigns the formatted content of the data object source, or the formatted content of the data object whose name is contained in source_name, to the data object destination. The data objects source_name and destination must be character type and flat. source_name can contain the name of the data object to be assigned in upper or lower case. If the data object specified in source_name does not exist, the assignment is not executed, and sy-subrc is set to 4.
The statement WRITE TO has the same effect as the statement WRITE for lists. This statement formats the content of source or the source field specified in source_name as described in the field. It does not, however, store the result in an output area of a list in the list buffer, but instead stores it in a variable. The output length is determined by the length of the variable.
The same additions int_format_options can be specified for formatting the content as in the statement WRITE for lists, except for NO-GAP and UNDER.
System fields
sy-subrc Meaning
0 The data object specified in source_name was found and the assignment was executed.
4 The data object specified in source_name was not found and the assignment was not executed.
For the static specification of source, sy-subrc is not set.
Note:
If destination is specified as an untyped field symbol or an untyped formal parameter, and is not flat and character-type when the statement is executed, this leads to an untreatable exception in a Unicode program. In non-Unicode programs, this only leads to an exception for deep types. Flat types are handled as character-type data types.
Example:
After the assignment, the variables date_short and date_long receive the current date in the order specified in the user master record. The variable date_long also contains the defined separators, as the output length is sufficiently long. The content of the variable date_mask is formatted according to the formatting addition DD/MM/YY.
DATA: date_short(8) TYPE c,
 date_long(10) TYPE c,
 date_mask(8) TYPE c.
WRITE sy-datum TO: date_short,
 date_long,
 date_mask DD/MM/YY.
Exceptions
Non-Catchable Exceptions
Cause: Negative length specified for offset/length
Runtime Error: WRITE_TO_LENGTH_NEGATIVE
Cause: Negative offset specified in offset/length
Runtime Error: WRITE_TO_OFFSET_NEGATIVE
Cause: Offset specified in offset/length specification is longer than the field length.
Runtime Error: WRITE_TO_OFFSET_TOOLARGE

Difference between LSMW and CATT

Hi all,
Can anybody tell me the difference between LSMW and CATT?

CATT
SAP users use CATT frequently to upload master data or to
make changes to master data records. SAP Consultants and
Abapers tend to use it for creating test data. The
transactions run without user interaction. You can check
system messages and test database changes. All tests are
logged. The CATT records your keystrokes while performing
the actual transaction. You then identify the fields that
you wish to change in that view. Then export this data to a
spreadsheet to populate with the data required. This is
uploaded and executed saving you keying in the data
manually.
To perform CATT, it has to be enabled in your production
environment (your systems administrator should be able to
do this - SCC4). You will also need access to your
development system to create the CATT script.
The process of uploading data with a CATT:
Activate CATT in your client
In transaction code SCC4 - click the change button
Double click on the client number
In the Restriction section, tick Allows CATT processes to
be started.
Upload data using CATT
1. Create Import variant for the fields you need
Transaction SCAT
Goto Parameters
Create Import Variant
Goto Variant -> Edit
Goto Variant -> Fast entry or F9
Duplicate 01
2. To change the MRP Group for a list of Material
Assuming that I want to change the MRP Group for a list of
Material.
My text files should look something like this:
[Variant ID] [Variant Text] &ZDISGR &ZMATNR
--> Parameter texts MRP group Material
--> Default Values M1 A001
Changes to the default values displayed above not
effective
#01 M1 A001
#02 ''     A002
#03 M1 A003
Note : '' denotes a blank in the field. e.g. Material A002
MRP group will be replaced by a blank.
3. Configure the recorded entry fields to read from the
imported text file data
In the CATT : Maintain functions test case Screen
Double click on the Object Name
Double click on the screen number with your desired fields
Park the cursor on the fields
Click Edit -> Details
Fill in the Parameters Name and Field Contents
Finish Save it.
Assign your text file data.
In the CATT : Execute test case Screen
Click External from file and choose your text file
CATT will now read from your text file and update whatever
data you have specified.
LSMW
Using LSMW you can update any kind of data but no changes to database are allowed, where as CATT tool can update only master data, which also allows changes to the master data and also a significant testing of data is possible. LSMW is a tool that offers you 4 ways to import data into SAP, they are BDC, Direct Input, BAPI(BO), IDOC.It is used for migrating the data b/w the Non-SAP and SAP application to do for that we can take the Non-SAP application data and Converts the data into the Legacy data. After the Legacy data creation convert the data in to the "Flat file". That flat file is in the form of text file or excel format.If the file is in the form of text format
we can create the ".txt" file ("ABC.txt")and in the form of
excel ".xls" file is created. flat file for dos and .xls
file for IBM. The converted file (.txt/.xls)is either upload or download. The Upload functionality if used for .txt file to SAP and where as Downloading is the concept while SAP to .txt/.xls file.
Execute the transaction LSMW to start transfer of data,Before using the LSMW we should have good knowledge about the business object and the fields that will be transferred.
There are 14 steps that are normally used and these are :
1)   Maintain Object Attributes.
2)   Maintain Source Structures.
3)   Maintain Source Fields.
4)   Maintain Structure Relations
5)   Maintain Field Mapping and conversion rules .
6)   Maintain Fixed Values,translations ,user defined routines.
7)   Specify Files .
8)   Assign Files .
9)   Read DATA.
10) Display Read Data.
11) Convert Data.
12) Display Converted Data.
13) Create Batch Input Session.
14) Run Batch Input Sesion.

What is difference between modify and update i am using

hi
what is difference between mofify and update
my requiremen is to have three condition checkec while mofifying or updating from a internal table
the three fields are
cus no
status
date these all are primary key in the database table
so which sould i use modify or update
there might be entry already existing in database table or new entry to be created if already existin it should check on the primary keys and updatat if not it should add a record
pls suggest whihc to use and how to implement the check on teh threee primary key
like if modify ztable from table it_test
now where condition ? can be used or not with modify? and if yes how
if not should i use update will update create a new entry if no entry is there and please give syntex
regards
Arora

Hi Nishant Arora,
Modify: It works in performing two actions.
They are: Insert + Update.
For Example If a record that is exited in database, so you are modifying that record, it updates that particular record.
Similarly, If the is not existed in the database, you are modifying it, it inserts a new record.
Update: Update means just it updates the status, I mean it only updates the record. It doesn't inserts any new record if that particular record is not present in the database.
These are the cases you need to write these statements.

Difference Between HashMap and HashTable

Difference Between HashMap and HashTable
Please explain with an example

I have a situation in Java Collection and i am not
able to figure a good solution. I am scared about the
performance and memory that wil be used
I have 5 List objects with thousands and thousands of
records in it. The List is populated by a database
query using jdbcTemplate which return like 200,000
records
Each record is identified by POLICY_ID. They may be
List with multiple records for a POLICY_ID
I want to extract each POLICY_ID from all the 5 List
and make a single List object for each POLICY_ID and
for each List and pass it to a print job which will
print the data for a POLICY_ID
Example
Let say we have POLICY_ID = 15432
List1 has one record for 15432
List2 has one record for 15432
List3 has one record for 15432
List4 has three record for 15432
List5 has three record for 15432
From the 200,000 records in List1 i want to generate
a seperate list with 1 record for policy id 15432 and
let name is Listperpolicy
after this logic we have
Listperpolicy1
Listperpolicy2
Listperpolicy3
Listperpolicy4
Listperpolicy5
call print job ( Listperpolicy1, Listperpolicy2,
Listperpolicy3, Listperpolicy4, Listperpolicy5)
Please let me know
Thanks a Lotttttttttdon't worry about performance until you've got a working application. second-guessing what the performance bottlenecks will be is futile
