Extracting language dependent data

Hello,
I am trying to extract master data which is language dependent ( not master data--> texts ).
My datasource has id, language, field1, field2. My master data infoobject id has field1 and field2 as attributes.
I first tried adding language also as an attribute of id. Only one record was extracted.
I then compounded id with language. Even then only one record was extracted.
The extractor checker (rsa3) however shows the correct extraction.
Please help.

Suraj

Hi,
Log onto your BW system.
From the menu, go to System-->Status. A pop-up giving the system details will come up. There will be a section called SAP System Data. There is a field for Unicode system. If it reads "No", then you do not have a unicode system.
If so, this then means you are on a single code page, i.e. the default code page, which handles English & German by default and other latin script languages (only when the respective language packs have been installed). If your source has languages other than the ones above, you will have problems extracting data.
If you are non-unicode, and the language you are trying to pull data in is not English or German, then you will need to install the language pack (if it is handled by the default code page) or if the language is, say Russian, then you will need to install a code page that handles Cyrillic.
BI 7, as a fresh install is done in unicode, whereas you did not have this in earlier versions and a decision could be made whether to go unicode or nonunicode.

Filling dependent field with language dependent

Hello Expects,
In backend(DB), I have function like, if I select number, its corresponding description filing automatically and also selecting record based on login language. Same function I need on UI.
For your information : Fields are created by EEW and current UI is 7.0
As of now, from DB properties, I am getting F4 value help, but its description is not filling and itu2019s not language dependent.
Hear I want; description should be filled automatically when I select value from f4 help.
In F4, it should show only language dependent data. I.e. login language values.
How to change F4 fucntion to dropdown function.
When I implement Get_V and calling DB search help, I could see values in language dependent, but when I select, itu2019s not selecting.
Kindly suggest, it will be great helpful.
Shakeer

Hi,
click F2 on your description field and F4 help to find out component and view.
With this information go to transaction BSP_WD_CMPWB.
Here go the your attribute and contextnode. Set a breakpoint in the SET_* Method.
If required you could redefine this method.
Our if it is a bug in SAP standard you could raise an OSS message.
Kind regards

LANGUAGE dependent TEXT data load to Infoobject

Hi,
We had Z infoobject with LANGUAGE dependent TEXT data.
We had a Z table in ECC in which the Text data of the Z info object is maintained.
Table Structure:
ZObjects : Lanuage:1-Text : Lanuage:2-Text
Now i created a data on the Z table and extracted data to PSA and sample data is like below
KEY,English Text,German Text134,potato,Kartoffel
145,chocolate,Schokolade
150,biscuit,Keks
Please update me how can i load this data as LANGUAGE dependent TEXT data of the Infoobject.
Thanks in advance

Hi Maxicosi
My understanding of the problem is you have text in english ( second field) and german ( 3rd field) while first field being the key.
If m understanding is correct please read further.
1. Your target InfoObject text table will have a structure like below
Key Langu Text
2. Create one transformation Rule Group which will have mapping.
Key ( DataSource) to Key ( InfoObject Text Table)
                                   Langu ( "EN" as constant value)
second filed   to   Short/Medium/Long text in (Text Table)
3. Create another Rule Group which will have the mapping for German.
Key ( DataSource) to Key ( InfoObject Text Table)
                                    Langu ( "DE" as constant value)
Third field   to Short/Medium/Long text in (Text Table)
Below how to document will give you an idea of Rule Group.

Problems with language dependent master data

Hi,
I created a InfoObject with language dependent master data and I am trying to upload data from a flat file.
My flat file has a 2 digit language code (EN,DE,FR,JP,ES) and when uploading the data it seems that SAP BW is only using the first digit which leads to the situation that EN and ES get treated as duplicate records.
Any help would be appreciated
thanks
Ingo Hilgefort

Hi,
ES is the Language for spanish..But the Flat file should have to represent 'S' for Spanish.
Check in Table T002 for the symbols which represent Languages and that to be used in flat file.

Language Dependent Master Data

Hi,
I Have a Info object which has data for more than 1 language, How do I control the text of the info object by language.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Kiran,
I agree with suman...
From the below tab check mark the option " Language dependent texts" in your IO.
Master data texts are language dependent (flag)
If this indicator is set, then the texts of the text table are language dependent and the text table has the language as a key field. This is also the default setting.
If the indicator is not set then the text table does not have a language field and the texts are not language dependent.

Extract Category, Attributes data in Multilingual

Hi experts,
I'm using the MDMGX to extract the Categories data using the F/M "MDM_COMM_CATEGORIES_EXTR".
data is populated (in debug mode) in all languages but, when the XML file created its showing only English language data. did I left any configurations / parameter values ?
Same with the CategoryAttributes data, using F/M "MDM_COMM_CAT_ATTRIBUTES_EXTR".
Let me know how to extract the Category data & Attribute data in multilingual and also explain the use of SETTYPES in the extraction part.If there is another way to extract data ? Please guide me.
Regards,
Rupesh K

Hi Rupesh,
For given port code define lang dependant field to be extracted under LANG_FIELDS field
e.g. for extracting country related data the entry should be like given below
MDM_PORTCODE = LT_Countries
Table_name = T005T
LANG_FIELDS= SPRAS=langkey,LANDX=Name,NATIO=Nationality
here it will fetch data from T005T table from which spras field will be mapped to langkey, landx will be mapped to Name & Natio to Nationality.
Just check data u entered under 'LANG_FIELDS' .
Refer to standard upload files given by SAP delivered with MDM Business content.

How to display the 'language code' for language dependent 'Short text' ?

Hi,
I am new to BW.
Can somebody help me with the following issue?
I have an attribute 'Material category description' and I chose short text exists and made it language dependent. I had loaded the master data successfully.
Now I want to know how to check the 'language code' for this material category description. When I display the data, will the language code display by defalult?
I had checked the text table using SE11
It displays the following fields over there.
/BIC/TS1_MCT_DS   [ /BIC/TS1(InfoObject name) ]
LANGU
TXTSH
I appreciate your help!
Thank you
Sekhar

Dinesh,
I went to RSD1 -> info-object -> Master Data/text tab. It shows my language selections there (Short text selected, language time dependent etc.) with everything grayed out.
In SE16, I could display the data in the following format.
/BIC/ST_PRID                TXTSH                 TXTMD
P01                                   umbrella                 rainyday
P02                                  tent                         waterproof
etc.
I want to see the 'language code' as one of the columns in this table.
Can you help me do that?
Thank you,
Sekhar

Time dependent data load to BW using Fixed Time Interval selection

Hi,
I'm facing a problem in extracting time-dependent master data to BW. I would really appreciate if anyone can help in this regard.
We have a table in R/3 which has time-dependent data. For example, for a single OBJID we could have multiple records with different BEGDA/ENDDA and different attributes. When we try to load this data into BW InfoObject, we see a time-dependent data selection in update tab of infopackage. We need to select BEGDA/ENDDA in datasource since otherwise during loads we would get a "DUPLICATE RECORDS" load error in BW.
The problem is when we enter a Fixed-time interval Start Data and End Date in the InfoPackage, only the records with that StartDate and EndDate are loaded. Ideally I would want to see all the records whose BEGDA/ENDDA falls in the range of StartDate and EndDate.
I tried modifying the ROOSFIELD table for the data source. I made the BEGDA SELOPTS as GE(16) and ENNDA SELOPTS as LE(64). But still it doesn't seem to work. I checked if the change to ROOSFIELD has any affect in RSA3. Unless we give a range for BEGDA it doesn't seem to behave as expected. Could someone let me know how I can load all records to BW whose BEGDA/ENDDA fall in the range of StarteDate and EndDate.
Thanks,
Anil.

Anil,
If you are using a custom dataSource, make sure the dataSource fields for begda and ennda are labeled "datefrom" and "dateto".

Time-Dependent Data in InfoPackage

Hi, Experts,
I tried to load CO Master Data from R/3, I got some issues as follow:
1. In the InfoPackage creating, what is the meaning of Time-Dependent Data, How can I know what are the properly value range I should entry.
2. After I excuted the Infopackage, I got red color in Monitor, I checked the PSA, some of the data's status were green, some were red which the system said that the records time overlapped, but I couldn't verify this is true anymore. Could you please give me some idea?
By the way , does any body have the documents associated with BW-SD including extraction, Business Content and query design. Thanks a lot

Hi Ryan,
Time-dependent data means data varies from time to time. For example one employee may work in US from Aug - Feb and in Canada from Mar - Jul. Then to maintain such data you have to declare them as time-dependent.
Time-dependent data has date-from and date-to fields. In your case the date-from and date-to have multiple entries thats the reason for the error.
Bye

LANGUAGE DEPENDANT TEXT

WHAT IS THE USE OF MARKING TEXTS AS LANGUAGE DEPENDANT UNDER THE MASTER/DATA TEXTS TAB WHILE CREATING CHARACTERISTIC INFOOBJECTS? AND HOW DOES IT AFFECT THE TRANSFORMATION?

This option is there to help load different language text for same master data. Say there is one material and this has it's description maintained in 3 languages. And based on users login language we want the language to be selected in report as description for this master.
So, in this case language dependent text can be used.
Now say the data to load from source is coming with master value and the description and the language key (EN for English, DE for German, RU for Russia and so on and so forth).
Scenario for 3.5
=============
To load the Text for this material you can use this data. Add 0Langu, Master Object and 0Txtsh (is you are using short text or accordingly Business Object for long and medium text) in communication structure.
In transfer rule map master object with master data field, 0Txtsh with description data field and 0langu with language key data.
If only one data key say EN is there and so language key is not part of incoming data then you can just set that language key, EN in our example, as constant value.
Scenario for 7.0
=============
For this also the mapping will be same. Only that the mapping will have to be done in Transformation.
Hope this helps!!!

Language Dependent Text datasource

I have a language dependent generic text datasource mapped to my language dependent infoobject in BW. In my source system, I have 68 records; 34 English and 34 French. I am only pulling 34 English records to BW but not the 34 French records. In my extractor checker (RSA3), I pull all the 68 records. Any reason why I am not pulling all the records from the text table. To reiterate, I have the flag "Texts language dependent" checked in my text infoobject. What is the reason why I am only pulling 34 English records and NOT all the 68 records?

1. Check the selections at the Infopackage level whether you are pulling only EN or there is no selection at the language field... in the data selection tab.
2. Check whether your system is unicode or not? Use RSCPINST program to check the same and also check French language is already installed in your system.. Execute the program, you can see the installed languages in left side and and uniode (*or non unicode at right side).
3. Also check the program in R/3 system and based on that we can conclude the next step...
Hope this helps..

Extract the classification data into internal table

Hi all,
I having requirement to extract classification data for material number.
1) Provide the selection option for material number (MATNR).
2) Based on the material number, then extract all that data into internal table as below layout. My problem is how to retrieve the following data from different table based on the MATNR (material number).
Please provide the sample code for select the following data. Thanks.
Classification table
OBJEK (from AUSP table)
MAFID (from AUSP table)
KLART (from AUSP table)
CLASS (from KLAH table)
ATWRT (from AUSP table)
MSEHI (from CABN table)
OBTAB (check if class type=002, set it as MARA)
STDCL (from KSSK table)

Hi,
if I understand, you´re trying to get information from the classification system for the material. You can use the following code:
DATA: clases LIKE TABLE OF sclass WITH HEADER LINE,
      datos LIKE TABLE OF clobjdat WITH HEADER LINE.
CALL FUNCTION 'CLAF_CLASSIFICATION_OF_OBJECTS'
     EXPORTING
          class              = 'DESK'               "clase a buscar
          classtype          = '001'                "tipo de la clase
          features           = 'X'
          language           = sy-langu
          object             = 'PM00A000C055'       "Material
          objecttable        = 'MARA'
          key_date           = sy-datum
          initial_charact    = 'X'
          change_service_clf = 'X'
     TABLES
          t_class            = clases
          t_objectdata       = datos
     EXCEPTIONS
          no_classification = 1
          no_classtypes      = 2
          invalid_class_type = 3
          OTHERS             = 4.
loop at datos.
endloop.

Infopackage time dependant data fixed time interval

Hi,
I have issue with infopackage. When I tried to load the master data attribute itu2019s not loading the changed data.When I checked the infopackage it has update tab and in this time dependant data section,it was marked as fixed time interval.The changed data in R/3 actually falls under the interval what was entered in the fixed time interval period.But it was not extracted.
I found that if we enter the exact specific dates interval in the fixed time interval,it fetches data.But we canu2019t enter each dates interval for all changed data in R/3. It needs to fetch all the data.When I try to remove the fixed time interval,it is not allowing as it is mandatory field.
Please suggest me how to fetch all the records for time dependant data.I tried other options like routine and variables.But it doesnu2019t work and it is fetching data only if we enter the exact dates interval.
Regards,
Ramana
