Diffreence Between Master Data and Transcation Data

Hello Friends,
What is the Difference Between Master Data and Transcation Data.
i know only one differnece,,ie,,
Transcation data modified frequently and Master data are not modified frequently..
can any one tell the other difference..

hi check this..
MASTER DATA=>
Master data are distributed throughout the company, they are often not standardised and often redundant. As a result it is very costly to offer efficient customer service, keep track of supply chains and make strategic decisions. With SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) these important business data from across the company can be brought together, harmonised and made accessible to all staff and business partners. As a key component of SAP NetWeaver, SAP MDM ensures data integrity via all IT systems.
Regardless of the industry, companies often work with different ERP and Legacy systems. The result: the business processes are based on information about customers, partners and products which is displayed in different ways in the systems. If the data are recorded manually, there are more inconsistencies: some data sets are entered several times, others cannot be retrieved by all divisions of the company.
As corporate applications are becoming increasingly complex and produce ever greater amounts of data, the problem is intensified further. Nevertheless, your employees must work with the inconsistent data and make decisions on this basis. The lack of standardised master data easily leads to wrong decisions, which restrict efficiency and threaten customer satisfaction and profitability.
In a word: in order to save costs and ensure your companys success it is necessary to consolidate master data about customers, partners and products, make them available to all employees beyond system boundaries and use attributes valid company-wide for the purpose of description.
TRANSACTION DATA=>

Difference between master data and transactional data

Hi experts i have just started learning BW can u plz let me know the difference between Master data and Transactional data in bw ? and why is master data is first loaded before the transactional data ? thanks .....

Hi
Transaction data represents any transaction occured between two parties like Customer and Vendor.
We maintain id's to maintain the Customer and Vendor.
When we look at the id we don't have a clue like who is the customer, where does he live,,....
So all this info is maintained in Master data in three categories:
1. Attributes
2. Text
3. Hierarchies.
Collection of Attribute, Texts and Hierarchies is called master Data in BI/BW.
Eg: 0MATERIAL, 0CUSTOMER,,,,,
Master data: is data that remains unchanged over a long period of time. Master data contains information that is always needed in the same way. Characteristics can bear master data in BW. With master data you are dealing with attributes, texts or hierarchies.

Master Data is one form of the historical data. There is no frequent changes in the data.Every application has it's own Master Data.
In BI the master Data has been divided into
Characterstics
Texts
Hierarchies
We can load Master Data through different ways.

What is difference between tha master data and tranction data

Hi, Gurus
this is sudhakar
i want to no what is the difference between the transaction data and master data give with examples .
Thanks
sudhakar

Hi,
The most important data classes are master data, transaction data, organizational data and system
data.
Master data is data that is rarely modified. An example of master data is the data of an address file, for
example the name, address and telephone number.
Transaction data is data that is frequently modified. An example is the material stock of a warehouse,
which can change after each purchase order.
Organizational data is data that is defined during customizing when the system is installed and that is
rarely modified thereafter. The country keys are an example.
System data is data that the R/3 System itself needs. The program sources are an example
for more info go through..

Replication between 130 nodes and 1 Data Center

Hi everyone.
I have 130 database nodes (Oracle Standard Edition One) with a big distance of separation, and 1 Data Center with 3 nodes (Oracle Real Application Cluster 10g R2). The connection between nodes and datacenter is through various ISP ( WAN).
I have exactly the same model design of database in nodes and datacenter.
DataCenter is a repository of data for reporting to directors and dictate the business rules to guide all nodes.
Each node have approximately 15 machines connected with desktop application.
In other words Desktop Application with a Backend Database (node).
My idea of replication is not instantly, when a transaction commit in a node then replicate to datacenter. Also over nigth replicate images because is heavy, approximately 1 mg per image. Each image correspond to one transaction.
On the orher hand i have to replicate some data from datacenter to nodes, business rule, for example: new company names, new persons, new prohibitions, etc.
My problem is to determine th best way to replicate data through nodes to datacenter.
Please somebody could suggest me the best solution.
Thanks in advanced.

Last I checked, Streams and multi-master replication require enterprise edition databases at both ends, which rules them out for the sort of deployment you're envisioning.
If a given table will only ever be modified on nodes or on the master site, never both, you can build everything as read-only materialized views. This would probably require, though, that the server at the data center have 130 copies of each table, 1 per node. For schemas of any size, this obviously gets complicated very quickly. For asynchronous replcation to work, you'd need to schedule periodic refreshes, which assumes that you have relatively stable internet connections between the nodes and the data center.
I guess I would tend to question the utility of having so many nodes. Is it really necessary to have so many? Or could you just beef up the master and have everyone connect directly?

The Difference between "Cell Data" and "Dimension Data"?

What is the difference between the tab "Cell Data" and "Dimension Data" in SSAS?

Article quote: " SSAS provides the way to secure analysis services database/cube data from unauthorized access. Analysis services provides secure access by creating object called "roles". After creation of role, user's windows login credential can be used
to enroll into particular role because analysis services identifies user from their windows login credentials . You can protect your data in roles at two levels:
1) Dimension level
2) Cell level
If user has been assigned more than one role, analysis services loop through all assigned roles after login. Analysis services finds all permission level for the particular user and union all the permission levels.
If two roles has contradictory access for user then particular access will be allowed. Suppose role1 says Australia data access and role2 denies Australia data access then access to Australia data will be allowed. "

Just subtract the dates from each other and you will get the number of days. I have used it and it works prefect
try this:
DATA: date1 like sy-datum,
date2 like sy-datum.
data I type i.
date1 = '20070301'.
date2 = '20070228'.
i = date1 - date2.
write: / date1, date2, i.
date1 = sy-datum.
date2 = sy-datum - 30.
i = date1 - date2.

Diff B/W master data and transaction data

Hi all,
What is the main Diff B/W master data and transaction data. give me some example ?
Thanks in Advance
Krish...

hi krish,
MASTER Data is the data that exists in the organization like employee details, material master, customer master, vendor master etc. These are generally created once.
Master data are distributed throughout the company, they are often not standardised and often redundant. As a result it is very costly to offer efficient customer service, keep track of supply chains and make strategic decisions. With SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) these important business data from across the company can be brought together, harmonised and made accessible to all staff and business partners.

TRASNACTION Data - These are the business documents that you create using the master data - Purchase orders, sales orders etc

This function provides a method to get the difference between two dates in the given locale. The dates need to be in "yyyy-MM-dd" format. This function supports only the Gregorian calendar. The syntax is as follows:
<?xdoxslt:date_diff(‘format’, ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, ‘YYYY-MM-DD’, $_XDOLOCALE, $_XDOTIMEZONE)?>
where
format is the time value for which the difference is to be calculated

Master Data and Transaction Data For DB Connect extracted Data...

Dear Experts,
I have been working on SAP NetWeaver BW 7.3 and for the first time I have extracted data from Oracle DBMS by using DB Connect. I have successfully extracted data of a View namely Sales_View into BW by creating a DataSource. This View has about 100 fields and I have been told that this view consists of Master Data and Transaction Data too. For my further reporting needs say building a Dashboard or InfoSpace I have to design a DSO and InfoCube for this DataSource. I'm bit confused about the Master Data and Transaction Data of this DataSource.
1. Should I create all custom InfoObject against all fields of DataSource for DSO and InfoCube design?
2. Do I need to create and load the Master Data for all InfoObjects or I need to create or load the Master Data for only those InfoOjects which will be
used for drill down or reporting in Dashboard or InfoSpace?
3. Do I need to load the Master Data manually by creating Flat Files and using these files for Master Data loading for required objects?
4. How should I approach the designing of DSO and InfoCube?
I will appreciate your inputs in this matter.
Many thanks!
Tariq Ashraf

Document Date: The document date is the date on which the original document was issued. Ex: Inv date, Bill date etc.,
Invoice Date : Usually the date when goods are shipped. Payment dates are set relative to the invoice date.

Pick list date must be between order date and cancellation date

Hi all
A client gets this error:
Pick list date must be between order date and cancellation date Message[173-89]
The date is between that range.
What else could be the reason for it.
Thanks

Hi
Since the message you received is very user friendly - date must be between....
I guess you have two situation
1.Either operation is incorrect
- Create a similar scenario in your test environment
-Are you receiving same error
-Test with only one item so far
-Check what is the result
2 . You probably need to upgrade your patch level
It might be coming from Application error
Hope this helpls
