Enabling Journals in a Model in SAP BPC 10.0 MS

Hi,
Where does one enable journals functionality in SAP BPC 10.0 MS?
Here's the background:
I created a new Environment from EnvironmentShell
Worked on dimensions, member sheets etc. in the Consolidation Model
In the SAP Web Administration, Consolidation Monitor, I get the error Initialization Failed when clicking on the Journal item in the TreeView on the left. Clicking on the See Details, I get the error JOURNAL_NOT_ENABLED.
In the Planning and Consolidation Administration Client, I get a similar error when clicking on Define Journal Validation Rules or Define Journal Translation Rules. (Journal in not enabled in Consolidation)
I then thought I would be clever and modified the column 'Journal' in the table dbo.tblApp by putting a '1' there.
Refreshing the Planning and Consolidation Administration Client, I see that for the Consolidation Model, the Journals are specified as 'in use'. However, returning to the SAP Web Administration and clicking on the Journal option, the error I now get is 'Invalid object name dbo.jrnAddedItems', probably because my backdoor hack circumvented some code.
Where does one enable journals in a Model on the MS 10.0 platform? For the life of me, I can't find it. This despite much searching. Clearly I am missing something obvious.
Kind Regards
Nick

Hi Arnold,
Thanks. Yip, that's it. (I knew I was missing something remarkably obvious - it's just that I could not find it for some strange reason.)
Again, many thanks.
Kind Regards
Nick

  • Issue with Work status in SAP BPC 10.1 Unified Model

    Hi Everyone,
    I am are tying to setup work status functionality in SAP BPC 10.1 Unifed Model. But I am not getting any dimesions to select in the Owner dimension dropdown in the BPC Web Admin.
    Is there any pre-requiste for setting up work status in Unified Model. Is there any document related to it? Any help would be greatly appriciated.
    Thanks in advance!
    Regards,
    Ramanathan

    Hi Ramanathan,
    Had the same problem when I began using 10.1 Embedded.
    In BW you need to identify which infobject will be used as the "Owner Dimension"  to control work status, access, etc.
    To this infobject you must add an attribute to contain the string (userid in BPC) of the owner.  The name of the infobject can be anything.
    I used 0ORGUNIT as the "Owner Dimension" control infobject and added attribue ZBPCOWNR.  I maintained ZBPCOWNR with the userid's.
    This is the value to be entered into Owner Property:
    HOWEVER, this will not be presented until the Owner Dimension contorlling infobject has a HIERARCHY!  The hierarchy must have at lease one leaf node.
    Once I added the attribute, maintained the attribute, and added the hierarchy I was presented with my choices in the dropdown boxes.

  • SAP BPC MS 7.5 with Extended Analytic Analyzer and EPM connector

    Hi experts,
    I need your inputs regarding Extended Analytic Analyzer add ins.
    I installed the SAP Business Object Extended Analytic Analyzer hoping to integrate the Xcelsius in SAP BPC MS 7.5
    I am following the HTG to integrate but got lost.
    In EPM connector steps, I cannot find the option from OPERATION TYPE: Retrieve data using Analyzer Report.
    The only options available under operation type are
    EPM Report
    Retrieve Environments
    Retrieve Models
    Retrieve Dimensions
    Retrieve Dimension Members
    Input Data
    Retrieve Business Process Flows
    Retrieve Context
    Retrieve Members Property Values
    RetrieveText From Library
    It doesn't include the option Retrieve data using Analyzer Report.
    Im wondering if there are different version of the epm connector? Was my EPM connector differs from the HTG?
    And also in Excel under Extended Analytic Analyzer, the function =GETREPORTDEFINITION() is missing
    Please help me on this guys..
    Thanks in advance.

    It seems a very good oportunity to use FIM.
    FIM was designed especially for exchange data betweeen different SAP product.
    FIM will provide an easy way to do the conversion using wizards and also will assure you about data inetgrity and quality.
    This will be the way forward but more details has to be define during the implementation.
    I hope this will help you.

    1) Can we create Excel Reports from Excel interface (EPM Add-in)?
    2) Once we create the Unified model, can we see this unified model in BW? as a cube?
    3) How to make Unified model in to Auditable status? Currently my unified model is showing RED dot under Auditable status. Will it show GREEN if its Auditable ?
    4) I am trying to create Input Template. I have navigated through "LIBRARY"-->"Input Forms" and then I have given input form name and Model name. But the "next" button is disabled because..its shows empty "No Data" for Name: and InforProvide. Its has "Search", "History", "All" options.
    What should I do here?
    5) Can we write a Script logic / BADI to perform a calculation in Unified model? Do we have Data Manager Packages in 10.1?
    6) How give Security access like Task Profiles, Member access profiles?

  • Xcelsius 2008 on top of SAP BPC

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to use Xcelsius 2008 on top of SAP BPC.
    I want following functionality in my dashboard:
    1. There is a drop down in the dashboard for Year-Month selection.
    2. Based on that selection, the BPC query to be refreshed for the selected month and my dashboard will show data for the selected month. While integrating with WebI using LiveOffice, we used to do this by binding the prompt to a cell in excel and selecting on demand refresh option. Can we do the similar thing while integrating with BPC ?
    3. Can we create multiple BPC reports in the same excel file to build the excel model for my dashboard ?
    Can these requirements be achieved by using Xcelsius on top of BPC using EPMConnector.xlx ?
    Many thanks,
    PASG

    Hi Sanjay,
    You need to use different operation types of the EPM Connector for this.
    Have a look at this how to guide:

  • Issue while creating Virtual provider based on HANA Model in SAP BI

    Dear Experts,
    I try to create a Virtual Provider based on HANA Model. However receive below error "Unable to find SAP HANA information model".
    I tried to assign the appropriate package and HANA model while creation of Virtual provider in SAP BI using RSA1 Transaction.
    Do I need to enable any services/ settings, so that I can able to use HANA Models in SAP BI?
    Do I required any specific authorizations either from BI or HANA side?
    Could some one kindly help to resolve this issue.
    Thanks,
    Khader

    Hi Srinivasan,
    Thank you for your response.
    I have already gone through the content provided via above links.
    However I face issue while activating the virutual provider with warning message"Unable to find SAP HANA information model". Due to which I am not able to see any data from Virtual Provider in BW.
    Do we need to have any special access/ role in BW or HANA system in order to consume HANA models in BW (Vitual Provider in this case)?
    I am trying to consume HANA Models in BW for the first time.
    So any more clues can be helpful.
    Thanks,

  • MDX Statement error in sap bpc 10.1 admin when opening a report

    I have restored a previously created environment that was built on the sap bpc 10.1 platform and am receiving the following errors when accessing my reports and clicking refresh.  I also received an error when restoring the environment that says "Error occurred in expanding member formula".  I don't believe these would be related but I am unable to access the member formulas in the model.  I am however able to access all dimensions, etc.  I am not able to create any new reports though.  Any ideas on a solution.

    Hi Kudzai,
    The error you're getting in BPC 10.1 is because the environments were migrated from BPC 10.0 or older version using transaction UJBR and it was not migrated to 10.1 after the restore.
    SAP Note 2052538 provides resolution for this. Please follow the instructions of Upgrade Guide for BPC NW 10.1:
    Execute migration program UJT_MIGRATE_100_TO_101 to migrate 10.0 data to 10.1 if the restored environment was backed up from a BPC NW 10.0 system
    Execute migration program UJT_MIGRATE_75_TO_101 to migrate 7.5 data to 10.1 if the restored environment was backed up from a BPC NW 7.5 system
    Thanks

  • What is the Data flow in SAP-BPC NW

    Hi All,
    Could any body explain me how the data is flowing in SAP-BPC NW.
    and what are the steps for Planning
    and what are the steps for Consolidation
    Regards,
    Setty

    Hi,
    1) Attributes describe master data like a customer. The country where the customer resides, the industry etc. describe and classify the customer. Attributes are not just the structure/metadata of the characteristics. They are also the content. The following table should visualize what i mean:
    customer-no. | name
    112 | mcpherson inc.
    113 | donalds inc.
    2) I think, you are asking about the laods from infopackage. We dont have types of infopackage. But we have one thing called Infopackage group, You can create the IPG with the selction of all infopackages in RSA1-Modelling Area to automate those loads automatically. That means it will trigger only those IP's which have been pooled up in that IGP...
    Basically there are three types of loads in Infopackage
    Full Upload: This will bring all the records in the BW irrespective of how many times you load.
    Init Delta: In this you have 2 options: a) Init with data transfer and b) Init without data transfer. Init without data transfer will just setup your delta and when you do the delta load it will bring all the records. Init with data transfer is similar to the full upload. This brings all the records for the first time and will also setup the delta process. Once the Init is done; you have to do delta for all the subsequent loads.
    Delta: This will bring only the changed / modified / added / deleted records from the source to BW.
    Hope it helps..

  • SAP BPC 10 NW loading data from Infoprovider (data value issue in BPC)

    Hi Experts,
    We are on SAP BPC 10 - 801 NW - SP05
    We are having an error when loading data from infoprovider, we tested in DEV and QA and have similar behaviour: data values which are stored  in infoprovider are loaded into BPC model with no differences.
    However after make a transport procedure into PROD environment and then loading data  into BPC Model something happens: suppose that 100,00 is a data value stored in a BW infoprovider, after loading data into BPC from this infoprovider, different data value is loaded into BPC. E.G 100,0 is in BW , but 10000,0 is store in BPC
    Is there any idea to fix it or check it?
    Thanks for your answer

    Hi Giovanni,
    This case occurs with colombian currency and others.
    Compare the table TCURX in DEV, QA and PRD.
    There must be an entry for currency COP only in PRD.
    Like
    CURRKEY CURRDEC
    COP 0
    Note 1240163 explain this behavior.
    If you need the value to be stored in 100,00 format in BPC, you can create a routine to convert this value.

  • SAP BPC 7.0 - Microsoft Platform - SP Upgrade Question

    Hi Experts,
    I was tasked to upgrade the SP of our client's SAP BPC 7.0 -Microsoft Platform System from Release 7.0.116 (SP07) to SP09. Details are below
    Prod System:
    Multi Server : 2 Servers
    Application Server:
    Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Ed SP2 32-Bit
    IIS Web Server
    SAP BPC 7.0 Release 7.0.116
    Database Server:
    Microsoft Windows Server 2003 x64 64-Bit
    MS SQL 2008 64-Bit
    My question, since Server Manager Version 7.0.116 is equal to SP07, do i need to download SP08 and SP09, and then apply SP08, and the underlying patch on top of SP08, then SP09, or can i just simply download only SP09 and then install it only in our App Server, since it was mention in the Upgrade Guide that SP of SAP BPC are cumulative. And if there are any configuration settings that i need to take unto consideration? I'm new to this one since I'm accustomed of SP Upgrade in SAP ECC Systems in TxCode SPAM.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    After performing the steps Nilanjan suggested you may want to look at the Post-Installation Steps recommended by SAP. They are as below:
    Post-Installation Steps
    1. If you already have an application set in your previous version, do the following:
    a) After installing this support package, update existing reports by choosing Publish Report on the Web Administration page.
    b) If you have already enabled Insight, update existing reports by choosing Build Report on the Insight Dashboard page.
    c) To apply fixes available for business rules, choose Modify Application within the Administration Console. Do not select options related to desired application.
    2. This support package contains an appset parameter called RETRIEVE_ON_OFFLINE. To restrict data retrieval while an application set is unavailable, access the Appset Parameter page within Web Administration, then add a key named RETRIEVE_ON_OFFLINE with one of the following values:
    1, which allows retrieval or data export while the application set is unavailable.
    0, which prevents retrieval or data export while the application set is unavailable.
    Log off and then logon to BPC for Office if the system offline message displays after setting the application set to Available. This downloads the dimension cache file if a dimension member or structure has changed while the system was offline.
    3. We recommend changing the syntax of dimension formulas related to CSS message [IM 1249006] Data Integrity Issue with Account dimension / 4 Hierarchies as follows:
    a) Use [%dimension%].[%current hierarchy%].CurrentMember. Level.Ordinal>0 instead of [%dimension%].[%the other hierarchy%].[All %dimension%.%the other hierarchy%] in dimension formulas to check the status of the current view of the current hierarchy because the current member may have been changed as a member of another hierarchy within multiple hierarchy dimensions.
    b) Use 0 (zero) instead of NULL in IIF statements when the member from the current view does not match the condition of the IIF statement, as NULL may return an incorrect value. For example, if the hierarchy is the third hierarchy, #iif([Account].[H3].CurrentMember.Level.Ordinal>0,%Arg%, 0).
    4. To run the Management Console in multiple server environments, change Authentication and Access Control of the ManagementConsole virtual directory in IIS from Integrated Windows Authentication to Basic Authentication. You can find the virtual directory on the Application server in the Directory Security tab of the virtual directory's property in IIS.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to use the RateEntity dimension in SAP BPC?

    Hello everbody,
    I am implementing a consolidation process using SAP BPC. I want to use the RateEntity dimension, to translate a same currency into different exchange rates depending on the company.
    I want the company which ID is GFU (which is from Brazil) in LegalEntity dimension is converted using a special exchange rate. I have added a GFU member in RateEntity dimension, and I have entered the exchange rates for the member GFU and for the member Global in RateEntity dimension.
    But the problem is that after I run the FX Restatement package, converted data for this company is not the proper one, because Global exchange rates have been used instead of GFU exchange rates. Does anybody know why? Do I have to do anything else? 
    Thank you very much for your time

  • Reports from SAP BPC NW 7.5

    Hi All,
    Our Landscape:
    SAP ECC EhP1
    SAP BW 7.10
    SAP BOBJ XI 3.1 (WebI/Crystal/Xcelsius)
    SAP BPC NW 7.5
    We are new to BPC. We would like to know where do we need to develope the reports on BPC data. Can some one help me on this. If some one have any best practices or options that where we can develope the reports, pls let me know
    Like we can do reporting directly on BPC with only couple of reports from BW/BOBJ or all reports from BW/BOBJ.
    Here we are planning to use BW as warehouse solution and BOBJ tools for reporitng on BW data.
    Thanks,
    Bala

    Hi Bala,
    BPC is a planning & a reporting tool. It can also be used for Consolidation. As mentioned in the previous reply, the data in BW has to be made available in BPC Application (cube) to be able to report it out.
    You might need to create transformation files and conversions files between your BW cubes and the BPC cubes to realise the data transfer to BPC application (cube). Note, BPC cubes are automatically generated when you create an application from the BPC front end.
    Please refer to some good introductory blogs available on SDN to get to know the BPC terminology and BW terms. Then BPC has an reporting tool in itself. You can create reporting using EVDRE for example which displays the data landed in BPC cubes. This typically will have actual data (loaded from BW), plan data (planned through Input Schedules or flat file data loads).
    Hope this give some brief idea.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    New  SP was released in February, and now most of the new bugs should been caught ,This has a Central Note. For SP06 it's Note 1527325 - Planning and Consolidation 7.5 SP06 NetWeaver Central Note to fix any issues. Most of the improvements in SP06 were related to performance, especially when logging on from the BPC clients.There you should be able to find a big list of fixes/improvements and Notes that describe those. Some of the Notes even have test description how to reproduce that issue in the old version.
    hope this will help you

  • Custom Process Types not working in SAP BPC 10.0

    Hi Experts,
    We have migrated from SAP BPC 7.5 NW to SAP BPC 10.0 NW.
    We have three Custom Process Types created in BPC 7.5NW using the super class CL_UJD_SIMPLE_ACTOR as super class.
    It has been made Obsolete and Final class in BPC 10.0NW and the Custom Process types are not running as expected.
    Can you please suggest if there is any alternative for using the existing custom process types? Or do we have any alternative for creating custom process types?
    *Note: We have tried replacing the superclass with CL_UJD_ACTOR instead of CL_UJD_SIMPLE_ACTOR but of no use.
