Where does Master Data Store?

Hi All,
Where does Master Data Store?
What are limitations while deleting master data?
<b>All the answers will be rewarded with points.</b>
<b>Regards,
Jackie.</b>

Hi,
Master Data is stored in the tables that are generated when you activate the Charachteristics...
You can see the tables in the infoobject maintenence ...
There are tables for Mater data Text, Attributes and hierarchy....
e.g. /BI0/TMATERIAL is the text table. You could find it in the Master data/texts tab in infoobject maintenence.
Secondly Deletion of master data is allowed in case the master data is not linked to any Transaction data within BW. This is because in the Infocubes the SID's would be generated that would point to the masterdata tables. Hence SAP does not allow the data to be deleted incase it exists in dependent tables.
Hope it helps!!!!

Master data text and ods

can i load the master data text and ods parallely?

Hi Abby,
If your ODS contains a characteristic value of an infoobject and you want to load master data (texts and attributes) of this IO, you'd better load master data first (not in parallel), then transaction data.
You can do it in a process chain.
Such a sequence will prevent the possible ODS activation failure.

Basic question on Master data reporting on ODS

Hello All,
Recently I had a requirement, where they need to see the master data report ( with its attributes and attributes of attributes (transitive attribute)). Hence I loaded the master data on a ODS, to turn on the Navigational attributes.........
For e.g.: Requirement:
Master data : 0EQUIPMENT
ATTRIBUTE: 0SHIP_TO
ATTRIBUTE of ATTRIBUTE: 0SHIP_TO_REGION
Question: The report is working fine...... but I have a doubt whether the report (built on the ODS with no Key figures) will populate the master data for which there is no Key figures are maintained in ECC???
Please let me know your ideas and views.......

Hi........
I think it will be better if u use Infoobject to store master data......here also u can turn attributes to Navigational attribute....u can activate that infoobject as dataprovider and do the Reporting as you do it now for the ods object. .........The master data approach will additionally give you the possibility to add navigational attributes to fulfil more reporting requirements..........In RSA1.............Infoprovider >> Right click >> Insert that Infoobject as Infoprovider............

Master Data uploaded to ODS not generated automatically

Hello gurus!!
I have an issue with a query that gets its information from and ODS.
After the variable selection is done the error message:
"Value '' (hex. '') of characteristic contains invalid characters"
"System error in program SAPLRRK0 and form RSRDR;SRRK0F30-01-" (BRAIN 299 )
If you go to the ODS you can see the lines correctly but you can't see them on the Bex query.. workbooks.. etc.
The issue has the following remarks:
1. Comes up on certain selection (not all)
2. The issue lies over the uploaded data from ECC system..
3. Data is loaded directly (meaning it doesn't have any other ODS or object between ECC and it self..
4. The Infopackage is loading information and it has the "Always update data, even if no master data exists for the data" flag marked. But it doesn't update master data correctly for 2 characteristcis.. meaning it updates data for most but some lines are in the ODS that don't exist in the MD..
5. Both these characteristics are texts.. and if I add a blank space or delete it from R3 and delete and reload in BW it works correctly.. But there are to many issues and its very time consumin to solve one line at a time.
6. Both these Characteristics hace there sid table but they cant be maintained since they don't have Master data table or views..
I've tried using RSRV transaction so solve it, since it detects SID issues but it doesn't work..
I've also tried marking the "Lowercase Letters" flag in the characteristics and reloading but it doesn't work eather..
I've searched for SAP notes but haven't been able to find a note that could solve this issue..
I appreciate your help.
Best regards and thank you..

Hi Jorge,
First check data in PSA, if it has any invalid charecters and then check in ODS, Problem is with data it seems

Characteristic "Master Data" setting in Query definition not working?

Hi,
I am having a problem with a query definition. (BI 7.0)
The query comprises the following definition which relate to displaying Milestone dates for respective projects in a time series so the dates are populated in the correct column in a time series:
Filter
Project Definition = Fixed Single Project Definition
Fiscal Year Variant = K4
Project Profit Centre = Hierarchy Node
Project Plant = Fixed Single Value
Free Chars
Network
Network Activity
Activity Element
Rows
Project Plant
Project Profit Centre (With hierarchy)
Project Definition
Milestone Type (Setting in characteristic to pick up Master Data)
CSR Relevant    (Setting in characteristic to pick up Master Data)
      Structure
           Actual
           Scheduled
    (Actual: Value type = Actual, Origin = Manual ,Event = Start)
    (Scheduled: Value type = Actual, Origin = Scheduled ,Event = Start)
Columns
Key Figure structure of 12 key figures in a time series
Selection
Key Figure = Date
Fiscal Year/Period = Current Fiscal Year / Period (SAP EXIT) (With Offset 1 to 12)
FYI
When I run the above it comes back correctly. However when I add "MILESTONE" (Characteristic setting (Posted Values) to the Query Definition immediately after the "Milestone Type" and before CSR it does not work it just is hanging for a considerable time.
I am not using "Master Data" for the "Access Type for Result Vales" for the additional characteristic "MILESTONE" just "Posted Values".
I was expecting that it would just show all Milestone types as per Master Data but just the Milestones that are posted for this result.
I would appreciate a solution to this issue and an explanation to why it hangs when I add the "MILESTONE" characteristic to the definition as explained above.
Thanks in advance..
Stevo

Hello there,
Putting Milestone in the rows in the query definition is not being hang there (i.e., while creating and saving the query) right?
It is stucked while executing the query isn't it so?
That's because you have too many records to be desaggregated by milestone characteristic, and this is indepently of posted values in the characteristic settings.
Putting milestone characteristic in the free characteristics will allow you to run the query, but desaggregate it (add it to the rows) will be to much information to read from your dataprovider (this is just a guess).
If it is being stucked in query execution whike milestone is in the rows. Try this for example:
Add milestone to the free chars. Execute the query. Filter milestone characteristic while still in the free rows and choose a value that you are pretty sure has the smallest records in the Dataprovider (could be for example value #). Than drill down milestone to the rows. You'll see that it can be executed without any problem.

Master data values(navigational attributes) are not turning up in the cubes

Hi all,
I have a cube, which contains 0cust_sales as master data and i have clicked on the navigational attributes of 0cust_sales like customer grp1, 2,3,4,5 etc
But then i have the 0cus_sales number 6100034 with all the navigational attributes turning up when i look up at the master data in the quality system.
But then for the same customer number i can see the customer number but no navigational attributes are turning up!!
I have activated master data and the master data contents are active!!
Can anyone pls update me on this!!
Thanks
Pooja

Hi
It is not part of dimension only 0CUST_SALES is part of dimension,
And ocust_sales-customer grp1, 2,3,4,5 are navigational attributes in the info cube. I have just included them as navigational attributes enabled in the info cube.
And when i loaded the data for customer say 6111035 from the ods to the cube. I can see the data for customer 6110035 but cant see the navigational attributes getting populated.
But when i look at the same in the master data for 0cust_sales i can see the values for the navigational attributes too!!
Thanks
Pooja

Loadin Master data Attribute from ODS

Hi experts,
I have a Master data as Infoprovider:
CASE with attributes at1 and at2.
I loading master data.
Another infoArea, I have and ODS ( case, field1, field2) that is loading with DELTA.
After loading the delta, I want to update the AT2 from CASE master data.
Which is the best option to loading an attribute from ODS? FULL? DELTA? What happend if the duplicate key error appears??
I believe that with a DELTA Update from ODS to CASE will not be an error.
thanks a lot!

Hi,
I dont think so there sould be problem in further update from ODS to Attribute.
It would be better to keep the Delta in Further update.

Queries based on Master data for the particular periods not working

Hi,
My Queries are based on master data and for 2007 we did not have customer groups define hence for the historical also we would like to display the customer groups hence we are reproting based on master data. But when iam executing my reprots for each and every month for the 2007 , i can able to execute the reprot properly but same when iam giving the values in ranges with the help of input filed ( calender month -interval) its taking hours but unable to retrieve the data for the 6 months at a time even if iam restricting the values in the queries still the problem is same...
Can anyone has an idea what would be the problem .. its only for 6 months
Thanks

Hi
Master data report consumes much time. try to see the Query Statistics and make the performance tuning.
Recheck your data flow for routines at TRules/upRules level.
Recheck on the Query designer for formula/ Cmod Variables.
The report fetching time even depends on the NO.of records too.

Master data attribute Vs ODS

Hello BW Experts,
having the objects as attributes vs having them in the ods. which is faster in terms of reporting. ?
-- how do we decide if certain objects needs to be part of master data vs certain infobjects needs to be part of ODS itself.
Suggesions appreciated.
Thanks,
BWer

Hi BWer,
If from our logical model that we have derived as Infoobject is a Business Object that is required to many Infoproviders then the are defined as Master data and if they are required for the ODS on business reporting needs then they are placed in ODS.
But when it comes to reporting i think it is ODS it makes faster than reporting for an IO.
Hope it helps...

Master data modified at SQL end not reflecting in Info object master data

Hi All,
we have done some data modification at SQl end where the modified data not reflecting in infoobjects master data.
for example:
we have split/skills numbers like 1-1000 in the data base and now we did some modifications to that particular split/skills numbers and uploaded that data successfully in the SQL end.now the problem is that modified data is not reflecting in split/skill info-objects and showing the same old data but not the modified one.can you please explain me how to reflect that modified data in BI side.
regards
Vamshi D Krishna

Hi vamshi ,
what is type of data load to master data infoobject (Full / Delta), if you know the split/skills numbers, try to load with repair full till PSA and check the data. if data is correct you can load to infoobjects and data will be overwrite, after loading data into infoobject -> in RSA1 -> infoobjects-> right and select "Activate master Data" ( this is not a mandatory step, if there is any M and A version data is there that will be adjusted.) and updated data will be available infoobject master data.

Master Data Issue affecting ODS

Hi,
We have Master Data ENGMDLNBR with Product Code as one of the Characteristics. ENGMDLNBR is the Unique key in this table. There are ODS objects which accesses the Product codes through the ENGMDLNBR Table through Transfer rules.
Eng MDl Nbr is loaded with flat files from different systems.
The PROBLEM is below:
We have recently found out that there can be Two product Codes for the Eng Mdl Nbr. So we have to include Product Codes to be part of the KEy for ENGMDLNBR Table.
This will affect all the ODS...
What will be the process to correct this problem with the ODS data...Will we need to Drop the ODS data entirely and reload again.. Please provide your valuable suggestions.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Andy.

Hi Andy,
There is no other way than deleting the data from ODS and reloading. If the data is critical and cannot be extracted again from source, I can suggest you some solution to save the data.
1> You can download the complete ODS data into a Flat file. After modifying the ODS, create a new flat file interface and load the file.
2> Create a new backup ODS for the existing ODS, do a full load from the existing ODS to new. After making modifications in the ODS, you can load the data again from backup ODS.
Again, these solutions are useful, if your data is critical and cannot be retrieved from source system again.

Master Data Services Add-in will not stay enabled

Using Excel 2013 x64 with the 2012 MDS add-in.
The master data services add-in works but when I shut down Excel, the add-in is soft disabled and I have to re-enable it every time I start Excel. I've tried disabling everything and then just enable MDS and that doesn't help.
How can I troubleshoot this? I can't roll out 2013 to my users if this problem persists.

I have finally found a solution for this problem! Every time I opened Excel (unless I ran as administrator) I would have to activate the MDS add-in; this was time-consuming and annoying. It seems like there was no solution posted online anywhere! Well
after much aggravation, I have finally found a solution:
Fixing the Microsoft MDS Excel Add-In so it Stays Enabled
Press the Start button (Windows button)
In the search bar type “REGEDIT”
Open regedit.exe
A pop-up will ask permission for the Registry Editor to make changes to the computer, select Yes.
In the Registry Editor expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER
In the HKEY_CURRENT_USER folder, expand in the following order: Software -> Microsoft -> Office -> Excel -> Addins
Select Microsoft.MasterDataServices.ExcelAddIn
Double-click on LoadBehavior in the right panel
In the Edit Value popup, change the value to
Press OK
Exit the Registry Editor
The excel add-in should now be active anytime you open Excel. If multiple errors occur while using the add-in, the Load Behavior may change back to 0. If that occurs simply follow these steps so the add-in will be active when Excel starts up.
I hope this helps some of you avoid the long hours of trying to find a solution to this silly problem.
Cheers!
Tony

How does Master Data delta works.

Can any body please explain me what is data flow in master data delta.Are the ale change pointers utilised , if yes how..And is delta queue used in master data delta.

Amit,
As you may be aware of this, ALE Change pointers are used to minimize the no of records to be sent to the extracting systemextractos. in other words the master data delta is been handled this way. It is better that you read the following that should be giving you some idea.

hi,
ru talking about to ignore the duplicate records if yes..
u can do it in Infopack scheduler screen select the tick mark 'Ignore duplicate records'
