Expert advice needed on Remodeling and line item Dimension
Hi All,
Scenario:
I have a cube 0FIAP_C03 for line Item. Now in this cube one of the dimensions u201CC036 -Document Detailsu201D is reaching the size of the Fact table. We are planning to use Re-Modelling and shift some of the characteristics like 0DOC_NUMBER - Sales Document, 0AC_DOC_NO - Accounting document number etc from this Dimension to another Dimension to reduce the size of this Dimension Table.
I have the following Questions:
1Will it be possible to add a new dimension and shift some characteristics from old Dimension to this new Dimension using remodeling( we donu2019t want to delete data from the cube)
2.what are the other feasible options to overcome the problem I have mentioned in my scenario( like Line Dimensions)
3.In case we can make this dimension as Line Dimension what other changes need to be made.
I am looking for a detailed explanation with all prou2019s and conu2019s, So kindly help me with your expert inputs.
Thanks,
Prafull.
Hi Prafulla,
Answers to your questions
1Will it be possible to add a new dimension and shift some characteristics from old Dimension to this new Dimension using remodeling( we donu2019t want to delete data from the cube)
No, remodelling wont work as per my understanding. ie You will have to delete and reload data
However, this also depends on the data in your dimension.....................................................
Consider the following example
Index(Dim-id).....Sales document............Sales Item............Accounting document
1......................1233456........................10.......................A123 .......end of record
2......................1233456........................20.......................A123.......end of record
3......................1233456........................30.......................A123.......end of record
Now suppose if you had to remodel the above dimension to move sales item to other dimension, then the dimension would appear as below................................................................................................
Index(Dim-id).....Sales document............Accounting document
1......................1233456.......................A123.......end of record
2......................1233456.......................A123.......end of record
3......................1233456.......................A123.......end of record
Now the problem is for the same combination of sales document and accounting document you should have had 1 row in the dimension, but you are having 3 rows(indexes) hence you are flouting the uniqueness for read and write operations to the dimension.. So logically this shouldnt be allowed...
However if your data in the dimensions is such that the uniquness of each row in the dimension is not disturbed, you could use remodelling.
You can try this in quality.
2.what are the other feasible options to overcome the problem I have mentioned in my scenario( like Line Dimensions)
I am not sure if I have understood your question. But I will still try to answer. If the dimension table has reached the size of the fact table then it is appropriate to consider remodelling.
Also you should consider embedding sales document and accounting document in the same dimension. Since there would be generally only one accounting document each sales document.
Use line item dimensioin as far as possible(restricted by number of characteristics). It reduces one step whie query since SIDs are directly present in fact table.. so you don't have to scan through dimension table.
Also have you considered archiving old dat not reported... It will reduce your dimension as well and improve performance...
3.In case we can make this dimension as Line Dimension what other changes need to be made.
-No other changes.
A safer option is to delete and reload data. Anyway remodelling also recommends a back up...
Its better to create a copy cube and use the copy cube/original cube for reporting until the other cube is getting processed to have minimal time of unreportable data.
Apologies .. Looks like the text in the post is loosing the format in which I typed hence the allignment is not correct..
Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Sunmit.

Expert Advice Needed on SSO and 9iAS
Hi All,
At work we are thinking of using Single-Sign-On
for authentication of all our intranet Applications.
We have used Oracle Portal which has SSO, but we don't really need Portal.
What I need to know is:
Does Oracle 9iAS contain SSO?
Do I need a Oracle Database e.g. Oracle 8 or oracle 9 to use SSO?
Can I implement SSO using just Oracle 9iAS and use it in my Java code e.g. JSP/Beans etc..
Thanks in advance for ANY help,

Infocube line item dimension and performance optimization
Hi,
I remodelled an infocube and line item dimension contains only one characteristics set as line item dimension.
previously the dimension as one characteristics but it wasn't set as line item dimension.
and when I checked the SAP_INFOCUBE_DESIGNS from SE38 it looks ok.
/SAP/CUBE /SAP/CUBE3 rows: 8663 ratio: 3 %
After setting it as line item the rows is now minus but it is showing red which means that there is problem with the dimension
/SAP/CUBE /SAP/CUBE3 rows: 1- ratio: 0 %
Its this a performance problem since it is showing red.
thankshi,
No,its not performance issue.
for a dimension to be line item dimension...the dimension size shouldn't be more than 20% size of the fact table size.
when a dimension is set as line item dimension,the regarding SID will be placed in Fact Table,but not the DIM ID.
may be that is the reason when your dimension is not line item dimension,it shows the number of rows and when it is made line item dimension,its not showing any rows and the ratio also null.
hope this is clear for you.

User needs to delete a line item from old STO
Hi all,
User needs to delete a line item from old stock transfer order and would like to be advised what he needs to do to delete the line item from the STO.
On the STO, Goods Issue done and reversed also. Delivery completed indicator not checked. I aslo found that the payment has been made for the line item 40 for Freight. Carrier charges. It seems that the payment has been made/cleared to the vendor. I think Due to this reason they are unable to remove this line item from STO. They have attempted to delete or block an item that is not yet closed. All down (advance) payments made to date have been taken into account.
Can you please advice how to resolve this problem?
Thanks in advance..
Regards
SureshHi,
Delivery completed tick is also there for STO PO. If you are not getting it then check settings. Also you can mark deletion indicator for that line item. Or minimise quantity to goods received quantity.
For STO if delivery is made from delivering plant but Goods receipt not done in receiving plant then that material remains in transit. Can viewed with ME5t. In this case that line item cannot be delted or delivery completed.
Still your client wants to complete these type also better to leave decision to business if they want to reverse delivery (Stock of issuing plant will increase) or make Gr ( Stock of receiving plant will increase) Although they can adjust later with physical inventry process and make stock in system to real physical stock

Gr Ir Assignment Updation with PO and Line Item
In the GL for GR IR Account the sort key was not maintained with PO number due to which the assigment field in the line item was getting updated with the posting date and not with the PO & LIne Item details.
We have made the requiste changes and new items are getting updated properly.
But require assitance in updating the earlier line items.
As of date total line items are more than 0.15 mn.
Please suggest some method to automatically update the assigment field of the GR IR Line items with the PO Details.
Regards
MukeshHi,
You can use a substitution to update the field through FI. Use GGB4 for wirting a substitution you may need some ABAP coding to substitute PO no and line items in the assignment field. rule would be Co code =XXX and GL account =xxx and Posting date earlier than =xxxx then concatenrate EBELN and EBELP in Assigment field Zounr.
Then execute FBL3N and edit the assignment field by selecting all the documents and then save it you should see the PO line items populated. You can leave the substitution on or you can remove it after updating,

PO comparison with similar materila number and line items
Dear Friends,
I wish to know in a report how i classify the pos having similar material and line items in each other, Like po number is 12 and has material numbers 1, 2, 3
where po number 13 and has material 1,2,3. how i fetched the data from the table and classify them with similar material and line items, please tell me. any article, example, code will be grete help of mine,
thanking you
regards
NaimGuess you need to display report with Purchase Order nos where Material nos are similar.
On selection screen add parameters Material and Line Item no. Both should ba mandatory.
Get data from EKPO where MATNR = P_MATNR and EBELP = P_EBELP.
Display the same in report output.
Just need to check with you - Material nos can be same on multiple POs but Material, Item no combination may not be.
I can use same material in another PO with different Line Item as other PO already has some line items. Why do you need this check? -
According to PO number and Line item data should come once but its repeatin
I am calculating IR Quantity and IR value......
for a PO if there are four same line items i wanted them once but they are displaying for each and every line item
If my po is 2003000151 and line item 0010 if both are same then i wanted ir quantity 500
but its displaying like this
PO item IR
2003000151 0010 500
2003000151 0010 500
2003000151 0010 500
2003000151 0010 500
I need like this
2003000151 0010 500
2003000151 0010
2003000151 0010
2003000151 0010
If po number and line item are same IR quantity should be displayed only once..
What should be done if it should not repeat in each and every line item if both PO and line item are samei am having internal table of it_ekko.
in that i am having some data of PO no, Line Item,IR value and IR qty......
i am having data like below.
PO Line Item IR Value IR QTY
200310051 0010 1500 4500
200310051 0010 1500 4500
200310052 0010 0 0
200310052 0010 0 0
now where ever IR value and IR qty is present i wanted that to display only once against that PO and line item
i wanted like below
PO Line Item IR Value IR QTY
200310051 0010 1500 4500
200310051 0010 0 0
200310052 0010 0 0
200310052 0010 0 0
Field names for IR value and IR Qty are Menge2 and dmbtr2.
How to do that.........
I cant use
Delete adjacent duplicates of it_ekko by ebeln = wa_ekko-ebeln and
ebelp = wa_ekko-ebelp.
because i wanted that po and same line items , how many times it is like that only.....
in it_ekko table i only wanted to delete duplicates of menge2 and dmbtr2.
Pls suggest the code -
Can i change the line item dimension for remodeling ?
Hi everybody,
I want to remodeling a specific dimension of my cube.
But, it is a line item dimension and so, i can't add an other characteristic.
There exist a manipulation to change the option "line item dimension" ?
Thanks for your help !
Rodolphe.Hi Laloux,
in remodelling u can add a characteristic to the Cube
For InfoCubes, you have the following remodeling options:
For characteristics:
● Inserting or replacing characteristics with:
○ Constants
○ An attribute of an InfoObject within the same dimension
○ A value of another InfoObject within the same dimension
○ A customer exit (for user-specific code)
● Delete
For key figures:
● Inserting:
○ Constants
○ A customer exit (for user-specific code)
● Replacing key figures with:
○ A customer exit (for user-specific code)
● Delete
You cannot replace or delete units. This avoids having key figures in the InfoCube without the corresponding unit.
hope it givs u some inforamtion...

E Sourcing 7.0: Formula Pricing and Line Item Formula
Hi
I am currently working on e sourcing 7.0. Here there are new features provided in Rfx->Line Item setup called Formula Prcing and Line Item Formula
I was trying to use Line Item Formula feature to provide pricing formula for line items.I chose pricing structure as Formula Prcing and tried to advance the phase of Rfx, System gave an error that I need to create unit price formula if I choose Formula Pricing.But once I create unit price formula it makes the Line Item Formula redundant.
Moreover the problem with unit price formula is Unit Price field is only available with Line Item Formula.It doesnot allow me to create an effective unit price formula beacuse of limitations of field at exposure.
Has anybody used this feature? Kindly help me understand
Regards
Shobha
Edited by: Shobha M Narayanaswamy on Aug 12, 2011 11:02 AMHi Shobha,
I hope members who have used this feature chime in. I am only playing with Formula Pricing because we are evaluating these as well.
I was not able to use the standard fields when using Formula Pricing.
I am retracting what I said in the last post, apologies, I made a mistake in the supplier response.
From what I understand now:
If you want to have sub components of the unit price (or more important, any other calculations for unit price), you should choose "Formula Pricing" under Pricing Structure. E.g., my company asks for supplier's manufacturing costs, their purchased parts cost etc all of which contribute to make up the unit price. In this example, I created Supplier Entered Attributes for Manufacturing Cost and Purchased Parts Cost and added a Unit Price formula which was the sum of both. In addition, I created a Supplier Entered Attribute for "Freight Cost" which is not really a part of the unit price, but is an additional cost. In Line Item Formulas, I added 2 formulae, just for example.
Total Freight Cost = Quantity * Freight Cost (Supplier Entered Attribute)
Total Calculated Cost = Total Freight Cost + (UnitPrice(IncoTerm) * Quantity)
Part 1 - Quantity = 10, Manufacturing Cost = 5, Purchased Part Cost = 5, Freight = 3
Part 2 - Quantity = 10, Manufacturing Cost = 6, Purchased Part Cost = 6, Freight = 3
System correctly calculated
Part 1 Unit Price = 10
Part 1 Unit Price = 12
Part 1 Total Freight Cost = 10 * 3 = 30
Part 2 Total Freight Cost = 10 * 3 = 30
Sum=60
Part 1 Total Calculated Cost = 30 + (10*10) = 130
Part 2 Total Calculated Cost = 30 + (10*12) = 150
Sum = 280
If you do not need the sub-components of the Unit Price, we can leave the pricing structure at Unit Price. I did that for an RFX, and also added the same 2 formulae in Line Item Formulas as above. This worked fine for me.
Part 1 - Quantity = 10, Unit Price = 3, Freight = 5
Part 2 - Quantity = 10, Unit Price = 3, Freight = 5
System correctly calculated:
Part 1 Total Freight Cost = 10 * 5 = 50
Part 2 Total Freight Cost = 10 * 5 = 50
Sum=100
Part 1 Total Calculated Cost = 50 + (10*3) = 80
Part 2 Total Calculated Cost = 50 + (10*3) = 80
Sum = 160
Both the above scenarios work fine for me.
The only open item is, I could not find a way to get these added to the Total Cost and Total Price listed on the "RFX Responses tab". I don't think it is possible to do that. I think you have to view these in the "Formula View" of the respective supplier proposal.
Let me know if this helps.
Thanks,

Urgent - "Vendor balances carried forward and line items report."
Hello,
Is there any report which will give me the vendor balance carried forward and the line items during that period.
==============================================
Format-
eg: statement taken from 1.8.2006 to 30.9.2006 is required as
Bal b/f 25000 cr.
3.8.2006 Purchase Inv XXX 3000 cr.
5.9.2006 Payment Chq XX 26000 dr.
Bal c/f 2000 cr.
==============================================
Please advise on this.....
Regards,
Jthanks for the response, but i have already tried those transactions.
FK10N will give me the periodic bal statements and NOT line items display which will also have balance carried forward.
F.41 and F.43 again gives the periodic and line items...but i want the vendor balances to be in the format given above..
like say, account statement.
Please advise............

G/L Balance and Line items difference
Dear Mates,
We have a Inventory-Spare Parts G/L account
When i see the FS10N g/l balances ,there is a figure appearing as 25,82,887/- in the period February and when i double click on the above said figure to see the line items whose total comes to 30,89,627/- with doc.type: WA.
Can please tell me ,what could be reason for the difference between Balance appearing on the initial screen and line items total.
Please treat it very urgent as auditors are sitting on my head.
Thanks
SubbuHi,
First let me know the SAP R/3 version and fiscal year.

S_ALR_87012247 - Customer Balances and Line Items in Local Currency
Hi All,
This report S_ALR_87012247 - Customer Balances and Line Items in Local Currency is not displaying line items for customers in ECC6. Is there any configuration required to get the line items? Please help
Thanks
SrideviIf you see this report S_ALR_87009950, you will get
Opening Balance at the start of fiscal year
Debits and Credit during the reporting period
and the Cumulative Balance.
Please note the above report will not give you line item details.
S_ALR_87012247 report is specifically for poland, in the description it is mentioned that the line items will be displayed, unfortunately, for other countries, there are no line items visible. Therefore, you may explore the possibility of copying this report and changing the code in order to bring the line items along with the totals. -
What is line item dimension and cardinality in BI 7.0
Can u plz suggest me what is line item dimension and cardinality in BI 7.0..
Thanks in advance.
VenkatHi Babu
Line item: This means the dimension contains precisely one characteristic. This means that the system does not create a dimension table. Instead, the SID table of the characteristic takes on the role of dimension table. Removing the dimension table has the following advantages:
¡ When loading transaction data, no IDs are generated for the entries in the dimension table. This number range operation can compromise performance precisely in the case where a degenerated dimension is involved.
¡ A table- having a very large cardinality- is removed from the star schema. As a result, the SQL-based queries are simpler. In many cases, the database optimizer can choose better execution plans.
Nevertheless, it also has a disadvantage: A dimension marked as a line item cannot subsequently include additional characteristics. This is only possible with normal dimensions.
Note: In SAP BW 3.0, the term line item dimension from SAP BW 2.0 must a) have precisely one characteristic and b) this characteristic must have a high cardinality. Before, the term line item dimension was often only associated with a). Hence the inclusion of this property in the above. Be aware that a line item dimension has a different meaning now than in SAP BW2.0.
SAP recommends that you use ODS objects, where possible, instead of InfoCubes for line items.
Hope this helps.
