Different types of structures

Hi all,
there are 2 types of structures
   1. global ( at infocube level)
   2. local (query designer )
how to create a global structure at the infocube level. Can any one let me know the procedure to create a global structure in bw.
thanxs in advance
hari

Hi Hari,
Global(Reusable) and Local Structures:
Structures are combinations of characteristics and key figures (of basic key figures,calculated key figures, or restricted key figures) of the InfoProvider. A structure can be used in a planned/actual comparison or in a contribution margin scheme.
Structures can also be used in several queries for the same InfoProvider. In order for this to be possible, you need to save them as reusable(global)structures.
In order to make a distinction, we call structures that are not stored as reusable
structure local structures. Local structures are only used in one query
<b>
Creating structure:</b>
Call up the context menu in the heading of the Rows or Columns directory.
Choose New Structure.
In the context menu of the new structure, choose New Selection. In the New
Selection dialog box, use drag and drop to choose characteristics and key figures
of the InfoProvider that you want to use in the new structure. Restrict one
characteristic or key figure. Define a new formula for calculations.
Select the structure that you want to reuse. Choose Save as. from the context
menu (right mouse-click) and enter a technical name and a description.
2. The saved structure is now available in the structure directory of the InfoProvider
tree. You can use the structure for the definition of new queries for this
InfoProvider.
<b>Note:</b> Changes made later to global structures affect all queries in which they
were used. If you only want to make local changes in a particular query, you
can choose Remove Reference in the context menu for the structure, and
thereby, change the reusable structure into a local structure.
Changes made later do not affect the definition of the reusable structure, nor
the queries that you made with this reusable(Global) structure.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Sudhakar

  • How load different types of file in SSIS

    could you please suggest how can we load different types of file in SSIS. The file metadata is not defined . So the SSIS
    package will read the files palced in a defined shared location or folder where based on the column value will determine the datatype on runtime and load the data.

    Hi SubhadipRoy,
    SSIS doesn’t support dynamic data access provider or metadata. That means that we need to use different source adapters for flat files (.csv and .txt) and Excel files. So, in the Control Flow, you can use three Foreach Loop Container: one to loop through
    .txt files, one to loop through .csv files, and the last one to loop through Excel files. In each Foreach Loop Container, you use a Data Flow Task to extract data from the corresponding source files. 
    If the source files have different structures, you need to use Script Component in the Data Flow Task to parse the first row of the source files and create destination table dynamically. Here are two script examples for your reference:

  • Heading for Different Types  in Query designer

    We have three different types Direct, Indirect and Others. Where Indirect and Others are fixed values and Direct types are dynamic which are getting from ECC.
    So they are expecting heading before each type and result according to these types.
    Tried so many options but not able to achieve the desired result as expected in Query Designer.
    Please find the attached document for desired output
    Please provide some inputs how can we achieve at the report level.

    hi Naresh,
    Structures are objects that you define in the BEx Query Designer. You can define reusable structures as well. they form the basic framework of a report. You can have maximum of 2 structures in a query. In such case you cannot have the same KeyFigure in both the structures.
    You can also define a structure for a Characteristic.

  • Mapping different types

    After Making some tests(Message Mapping) , Ive realized that is possible to map data-fields of different types (char v/s int) without error exists.
    is this possible for that it happens to this?
    Did I make any mistakes on steps?

    Hi Ximena,
    The Mapping does not care about types. Inside the XML structure almost all types are represented by string values. Therefore you can map each element to another element without caring about types.
    The problem with the types occurs when you want to transform the XML to another structure for example in an inbound processing of RFC adapter or proxy. If the value of an element is not conform to the underlying type, a parsing error will occur. So you have to assure inside the mapping, that this will not happen.

    Hi baddala,
    Structures which either directly or in substructures contain only fields of types C, N, D or T.
    The main characteristics of the different kinds of structures are:
    Flat structures contain only fields of the elementary types C, N, D, T, F, I, P, and X, or structures containing these types.
    Deep structures contain strings, internal tables and field or object references in addition to the elementary types.
    Nested structures are structures that contain substructures as components.
    Non-nested structures are structures that do not contain any substructures.

  • Different types of tables and purpose

    Hi,
    Could someone explain me the different types of tables an what data they store.
    Sonali

    hi Sonali,
    These are the different types of tables in MDM
    Flat Tables : It is a simple table consisting of record and fields ( rows and column) .
    Hierarchy Table : A hierarchy table organizes information in a hierarchy, where each record is related to a parent record (even if the only parent is the root) and may also be related to sibling records and/or child records.
    Taxonomy Table : A taxonomy is the classification scheme that defines the categories and subcategories that apply to a collection of records. Categorizing records enables you to isolate subsets of records for various organizing, searching, editing and publishing purposes.
    Qualified Table : A qualified table in MDM stores a set of lookup records,and also supports qualifiers, u201Csubfieldsu201D that apply not to the qualified table record by itself, but rather to each association of a qualified table record with a main table record. MDM supports multiple simultaneous qualified tables.
    Tables are also Categorized as Object Tables like :
    Images : This table is for storing Images
    Sounds : This table is for storing Sound File.
    Videos : This table is for  storing Video Files .
    Binary Objects : This table is for storing Binary Objects.
    Text Blocks : This table is for storing  block of text.
    Copy Blocks : This table is for storing  block of text interpreted as a Copy.
    Text HTML`s : This table is for storing  block of text interpreted as a HTML.
    PDFs : This table is for storing PDF files.
    There are various types of Special Tables , i have mentioned below:
    Image Variants : Used to define the structure
    and format of each of the variants for each image. Each variant is a modified version derived from an original image; the original image is never modified.
    Masks : In this defined subset of records are included in Mask i.e. in any scenario whether new records are added or deleted in the repository the records in the Mask remains the same unless edited by the user.
    Families : Used to further partition main table records in each category into smaller groups based upon the values of other fields and/or attributes.
    Relationships : Used to define each of the different record-level relationships. Each relationship can be either bidirectional (sibling) or unidirectional (parent-child).
    Workflows : Stores the workflows of an MDM repository, where each workflow is stored as a record in the table.
    Name Searches : Unlike Masks in case of Name search there are again a defined set of records but those records are selected on the basis of Search Selection. In this case if a record is added then the record is checked whether it fulfills the particular search criteria if it does than it is added to the Name serach else not.
    Data Groups : Stores the hierarchy of data groups used to break the entire set of objects in the MDM repository into manageable subgroups.
    There are various types of System Tables :
    Roles : A single table named Roles. One of three tables used to implement MDM repository security and access control. Each role can selectively grant or deny access to any MDM function and to any table or field. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
    Users : A single table named Users. One of three tables used to implement MDM repository security and access control. Each user can have one or more roles. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
    Connections : A single table named Connections. One of three tables used to implement MDM repository security and access control. Contains an entry for each currently connected MDM client application, which can be terminated by the MDM Console user. This table is not visible in the MDM Client.
    Change Tracking : A single table named Change Tracking. Allows you to specify the fields for which adds, modifies, and deletes should be tracked and stored in the Change Tracking table.
    Remote Systems : A single table named Remote Systems. Used to define the different remote systems for import and export. Each specifies whether it supports inbound, outbound, or both. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
    Ports : A single table named Ports. Used to encapsulate the logistical and configuration info for inbound and outbound processing of MDM data, for consolidation and distribution respectively. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
    Links : A single table named Links. Used to specify the URLs that can be used as the target of an embedded browser in the Web tab in the MDM Client. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
    XML Schema : A single table named XML Schemas. Used to identify the XML schemas for import and syndication. Each XML schema is the name of an .xsd file. This table is managed in the MDM Console and is not visible in the MDM Client.
    Reports : A single table named Reports. Contains an entry for each report file generated by the various MDM repository operations, which can be accessed and viewed by the MDM Console user. This table is not visible in the MDM Client.
    Logs : A single table named Logs. Contains an entry for the log files generated by the MDM Server, which can be accessed and viewed by the MDM Console user. This table is not visible in the MDM Client.
    In MDM SP06 5.5 we can have only one main table, but in MDM 7.1 version we can maintain many main tables.

  • The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information. Outcome: Unknown Error

    Received this error (The workflow could not update the item, possibly because one or more columns for the item require a different type of information.) recently on a workflow that was
    working fine and no changes were made to the workflow.
    I have tried a few suggestions, i.e. adding a pause before any ‘Update’ action (which didn’t help because the workflow past this action without incident); checked the data type being written
    to the fields (the correct data types are being written); and we even checked the list schema to ensure the list names and the internal names are aligned (they
    are), but we still cannot figure out why the workflow is still throwing this error.
    We located the area within the workflow step where it is failing and we inserted a logging action to determine if the workflow would execute the logging action but it did not, but wrote the same error message.
    The workflow is a Reusable Approval workflow designed in SharePoint Designer 2010 and attached to a content type. 
    The form associated with the list was modified in InfoPath 2010. 
    Approvers would provide their approval in the InfoPath form which is then read by the workflow.
    Side note - items created after the workflow throws this Unknown Error some seem to be working fine. 
    We have deleted the item in question and re-added it with no effect. 
    Based on what we were able to determine there don’t seem to be any consistency with how this issue is behaving.
    Any suggestions on how to further investigate this issue in order to find the root cause would be greatly appreciated?
    Cheers

    Hi,
    I understand that the reusable workflow doesn’t work properly now. Have you tried to remove the Update list item action to see whether the workflow can run without issue?
    If the workflow runs perfectly when the Update list item action is removed, then you need to check whether there are errors in the update action. Check whether the values have been changed.
    Thanks,

    Our SPF 2010 server is relatively small to many setups I am sure. The list with the issue only has 4456 items and there are a few associated lists, eg lookups, Tasks, etc see below for count.
    Site Lists
    Engagements = 4456 (Errors on this list, primary list for activity)
    Tasks = 7711  (All workflow tasks from all site lists)
    Clients = 4396  (Lookup from Engagements, Tslips, etc)
    Workflow History = 584930 (I periodically run a cleanup on this and try to keep it under 400k)
    Tslips = 3522 (Engagements list can create items here, but overall not much interaction between lists)
    A few other lists that are used by workflows to lookup associations that are fairly static and under 50 items, eg "Parters Admin" used to lookup a partners executive admin to assign a task.

  • Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter issues (2 different types, no info from Apple)

    as you can see below, I have an iBook G4 1.2GHz
    three weeks ago I got a Mini-DVI to Video Adapter
    there were two different types in the Apple Store because there are two generations of Mini-DVI outputs, therefore some close inspection and it was easy to get the right part.
    Now, three weeks later, all that stuff is off the shelf so it looks like they only have up the more recent size plug. Thus, I cannot find the slightly smaller Mini-DVI to DVI Adapter. (typical Apple, probably just wants me to spend more money on a new machine)
    Anyone have a line on where to buy the older type of adapter?
    be very careful out there. They are pimping the heck out of the newer generations. I'm looking for the older one.
    (if not, I'll probably just stop buying Apple stuff. No need for the headache any more since they are no longer really different products. Just fashion)

    I have both an iBook G4 and a MacBook, which use each of the adaptors you have described. I found the information on the Apple site by identifying the Model iBook I had, Dual USB, and looking at he detailed views of each model to identify the type of 'video output port'. I obtained a '2 input' VGA switch from Tiger Direct to be able to switch my monitor from iBook to MacBook.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can I get the program to recognize two different types of thermocouples?

    I am using a PCI-4351 card with a TBX-68T terminal block. I was having trouble writing and finding a program that would give me more than one reading/sec. I found a program on the NI website called "435x_logger_triggering", and so far it is the only program that I have found that will actually collect data at 60 Hz. Unfortunately, this program only lets you specify one mode for your thermocouples. This is a problem because we are using two thermocouples, one is type K and the other is a type R, so we get bad readings from one of the thermocouples depending on which mode it is set on. I would like to know how I can program in a seperate mode for each channel in this program. Un
    fortunately, some of the sub VI's in this program are password protected, so I don't know if this is possible. Everything is entered correctly in the Measurement and Automation explorer, so that isn't the problem. I will attach a copy of the program that I am using. I have modified it slightly from the one I got off the NI website, so that the thermocouple readings have a time stamp and are saved to disk. Any assistance you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Jordan

    Jordan,
    You should be able to sample two different thermocouples in the example that ships with the 435x driver called "Getting Started with multiple tranducers Continous". Simply put each type of thermocouple in a different index . Each index of the Transducer Group Array can have a different type and specify the channels that correspond to that type.
    One way that you can speed this VI up is to place a wait inside of the while loop. This will reduce the number of times the software polls the card if it has available data(increasing the overhead). I would suggest about 500 ms. The data that you receive will all have the same delta t because the sampling clock is hardware driven not software, so it does matter when the data is polled.
    You will not be
    able to get 60 samples per second when you are measuring multiple channels anyway. The sample rate for multiple channels is about 9/(# channels). This is explained in the 435x Users Manual.
    I looked at your code and noticed that you tried to change some of the enumeration controls. Unfortunately you will not be able to change these because they are password protected on the low level subVIs, which is where they are defined.
    The way you select if you want the notch filter is in the 435x Config you specify fast or slow. If it is slow then it will select 10Hz as the nitch filter. If you select fast the it will select either 50 or 60Hz You would then use the function "435x Set power line frequency"
    Good luck,
    Mike

    It has a list of the algorithms, which are pretty disappointing, I must say. No Random Forests? No ensembling methods? Given that it's using R algorithms, I must say this is a missed opportunity to beat products like SPSS and SAS at their own game. If SAP were to include this functionality, they would be the only BI vendor capable of having a serious predictive tool integrated with the rest of the platform.... but this looks pretty weak.
    I can only hope a later release will remedy this - or maybe the SDK will allow me to create what I need.
    As things stand, I could built a random forest using this tool, but I would have to use a lot of hardcoded SQL to make it happen. And if I wanted to go down that road, I could use the algorithms that come with the Microsoft/Oracle software.
