FI-AA Data Source Initialization Question

Hi,
We have initialized the asset accounting data sources as follows:
0ASSET_ATTR
Company Code (selection criteria A)
0ASSET_AFAB
Company Code (selection criteria A)
0FI_AA_11
Company Code (selection criteria A)
Depreciation Area (selection criteria B)
0FI_AA_12
Company Code (selection criteria A)
Depreciation Area (selection criteria B)
Fiscal Period (2007000 till 2007999)
ZFI_AA_12 (custom)
Company Code (selection criteria A)
Depreciation Area (selection criteria D)
Fiscal Period (2007000 till 20007999)
Since 2008 has started, we want to bring in 2008 depreciation data into BI. Hence we need a new initialization for data sources 0FI_AA_12 and ZFI_AA_12. However, we do not want to touch the existing initializations in place for 0FI_AA_11 and master data.
Please advise if this is possible and if yes, how?
Thanks and Regards,
Dhruv

Sorry guys...wrong forum I guess.

Sub reports In Crystal reports XML as a data Source

Hi,
I am facing one problem related to Sub reports functionality in crystal reports as XML as a data Source. We are using CrystalReports XI for this.
I was generated PDF's using crystal reports from ruby on rails, by using the JAVA API to produce the PDF by taking the XML,XSD,and RPT files as parameters. I succeed in this case
and the way we are communicating with JAVA API using from my Ruby on Rails application by the following link.
http://rorataspire.wordpress.com/2008/06/13/how-to-integrate-crystal-reports-with-ruby-on-rails/
Right Now my problem is as follows.
The problem with the sub reports generation from crystal reports. We had one main report file(RPT), In that we are using the Sub reports,for that sub reports need to parse the XML's and XSD's dynamically based on the report encountered on the main(RPT)file,but to send more than one XSD's and XML's dynamically based on the sub report, to the JAVA API from Ruby on Rails application I am not succeeded. So as a result PDF with the Dynamic data for Sub reports is not fulfill.
Your help is appreciable, Thanks in advance.

Is this a coding question or a data source format question?

CRM 7.0 - Enhancement of Data Sources for interactive Reporting

Hallo All,
I would like to know whether anybody has positive experience with the enhancement of CRM Data Sources for interactive Reporting. I read that the enhancement of Customer fields should be possible (Those Data Sources below the Hierarchy node /CRMBW/ROOT).
I have seen that the extract structure can be enhanced via RSA6 (as for other data sources).
Questions:
1. Which USEREXIT / BADI has to be used to fill the added fields?
2. Does it work?
Best regards

Hi!
Those DS are not meant to be enhanced manually but only by one of the following two ways:
1. Adding custom fields with the Application Enhancement Tool (AET) in the CRM UI.
2. Adding SAP fields with the Interactive Reporting Enhancement Workbench (IREW).
The AET is available since CRM 7.0. Please find more details in the SAP Help Portal:

Hyperion as Data Source

I am completely stranger to Hyperion solutions.I am currently working for a company wich already runs hyperion. They are building data marts in a Oracle Database using Oracle OLAP tools and Essbase is one of ours data source.The question is: We are reading and loading hyperion data into oracle using excel and vba macros. Is there any other way to read and load hyperion data into oracle?Thanks

You can write Essbase Report Scripts to retrieve data. Check Essbase DBA guide Chapters 34 to 37 for more details.Hope this helps.

Extraction, Flat File, Generic Data Source, Delta Initialization

Extraction, Flat File, Generic Data Source, Delta Initialization
I have couple of questions regarding data extraction.
1.     If you have Data Source a Flat File e.g. Excel file I know that you have to create Data Source at BW side. How do you upload updates, by selecting Delta Update when executing next Data Load? Do you ever u201Cconvertu201D this Excel file into Application Tables to become SAP Source 
2.     Can you please give me example of situation where you had to create Generic Data Source? What is difference between Time Stamp, Calend. Day and Numeric Pointer. Which one is most common to select?
3.     I read somewhere that Generic Data Source does not have Setup Table. I thought that you have to have Setup Table in order to load transaction Data otherwise you will lock the Application Tables. Where am I going wrong im my thinking please?
4.     What are steps in terms of IP before, under and after Delta Initialization. I belive that you can do two ways:
Full Update - Initialize Delta Process (without Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update or
Initialize Delta Process (with Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update
Am I right? What is most common method and why?
5.     If you want to add a filed in Data Source after 6 month using it, you want to do it without re-init Delta Queue. You add field in RSA6, then provide info for ABAP to populate new filed (info u2013 name of Data Source, Extract Structure, field added, name of Application Table which contains the field). How does it work now as there is no SetUp table it has been deleted after Initialisation? How does Delta Queue know that it is going to receive data which has been expanded by one field or it may does not need to know at all?
THANKSSSSSSSSSs

Hi,
1. If you have Data Source a Flat File e.g. Excel file I know that you have to create Data Source at BW side. How do you upload updates, by selecting Delta Update when executing next Data Load? Do you ever u201Cconvertu201D this Excel file into Application Tables to become SAP Source
Once you create Datasource for A flat file extraction then it is file source system specific hence you cont change to Application table source Data source
In info package you can change the source as application server instead of desktop no need to change the DS
2. Can you please give me example of situation where you had to create Generic Data Source? What is difference between Time Stamp, Calend. Day and Numeric Pointer. Which one is most common to select?
When we don't find any standard extractor then we can go for Generic(if i want information sales along with finance information in a data source then generally we dont get standard one hence we can go for generic DS)
Check the below link for More about generic DS .
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BI/Generic+Extraction
for Delta capturing you can use
Timestamp(if the table has time stamp filed so it can stamp the last changed record in that table hence it is easy to get delta based on the time stamp)
Calday- (If the table doesn't have the Timestamp filed then search for Calday where you can stamp the delta based on the date when documents are changed )
Numericpointer : If the table doesn't above both then we go for this option where you can the numeric value change stamp )
3. I read somewhere that Generic Data Source does not have Setup Table. I thought that you have to have Setup Table in order to load transaction Data otherwise you will lock the Application Tables. Where am I going wrong im my thinking please?
Generic datasource nothing but we extracting data directly from the database table without any interface between the application/systems
4. What are steps in terms of IP before, under and after Delta Initialization. I belive that you can do two ways:
Full Update - Initialize Delta Process (without Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update or
Initialize Delta Process (with Data Transfer) u2013 Delta Update
Am I right? What is most common method and why?
Correct
5. If you want to add a filed in Data Source after 6 month using it, you want to do it without re-init Delta Queue. You add field in RSA6, then provide info for ABAP to populate new filed (info u2013 name of Data Source, Extract Structure, field added, name of Application Table which contains the field). How does it work now as there is no SetUp table it has been deleted after Initialisation? How does Delta Queue know that it is going to receive data which has been expanded by one field or it may does not need to know at all?
Once you add the new field to structure(DS) you will get the data as on date onwards not historical data hence what is the concept of setup table ( delta records come from the Delta Que not from the setup table )
If you want histaric data to new field then you need to setp table deletion ...etc...
Hope it is clear..

Excel 2007 = Refresh All = Error Message "Initialization Data Source Failed"

Excel 2007 => Data Tab - Refresh All => Error Message "Initialization Data Source Failed
2nd Error message:
The following data ranged failed to refresh: ExternalData1 - Continue to refresh all
How do I resolve this? Trying to connect to Oracle DB environment 12C

What will happen if you rebuild the PivotTable/Table ?
Make sure the external database is available and the Oracle Provider for OLE DB is installed correctly.

Question on Dynamic Query Data Source and Form Folders in Oracle Forms 6i

Hi there -
I have one interesting requirement in Oracle Forms.
This is what I wanted to do.
1. Have a LOV and Go button on Form.
2. From LOV, I will select a pre-defined custom table and click Go.
3. Based on the selected custom table, I have to populate the Block (Tabular Format).
4. User should be able to do update, delete, insert on this block.
5. User should be able to use the Oracle Form folders functionality (select only necessary column and save views etc. Std folder functionality).
6. If user selects a different custom table name in the LOV on top, I need to refresh the data from the block based on this new table. Remaining functionality should be as it is (steps 3 to 5).
You can see here, I am going to have dynamic query data source (Table Name as well as column mapping) on the block. I do not know before hand how many columns the user selected table has!
This is what I have planned for this so far but I have some major questions before I can move on with this design:
1. I am going to create a table structure with fixed number of column in form (40 cols assuming that the custom table will not have more that 40 cols). (Kind of limitation but it's okay as of now).
2. Dynamically populate the block based on the table name selected by the user from LOV. Dynamically change the table column names based on the table selected etc.
3. Perform insert, update, delete using PL/SQL package.
So far it looks okay.
Now my real question is,
Can user still be able to user "Folders" functionality here? I have never done this kind of development before and I doubt the dynamic column naming, dynamic column data source will really work for "folders"!
Also, I am not really sure whether user will be able to save these "folder" queries?
Okay so form experts, can you ppl suggest me if this is really going to work? Are there any better ways to do this?
Initially I tried to do this in OA Framework but I got stuck at because as per OAF developer guide "I cannot user OAF personalization for dynamic items, regions etc".
For more info on that thread see this link...
Re: setUserCustomizable issue!
Thanks in advance for the help.

Any suggestion anyone?

Question - Best practice data source for Vs2008 and Crystal Reports 2008

I have posted a question here
CR2008 using data from .NET data provider (ADO.NET DATASET from a .DLL)
but think that perhaps I need general community advise on best practice with data sources.
In Crystal reports I can choose the data source location from any number of connection types, eg ado.net(xml), com, oledb, odbc.
Now in regard to the post, the reports have all been created in Crxi 6.3, upgraded to Crystal XI and now Im using the latest and greatest. I wrote the Crystal Reports 6.3/ XI reports back in the day to do the following: The Reports use a function from COM Object which returns an ADO recordset which is then consumed fine.
So I don't want to rewrite all these reports, of which there are many.
I would like to know if any developers are actually using .NET Class libraries to return ADO.NET datasets via the method call or if you are connecting directly to XML data via whatever source ( disk, web service, http request etc).
I have not been able to eliminate the problem listed in the post mentioned above, which is that the Crystal Report is calling the .NET class library method twice before displaying the data. I have confirmed this by debugging the class lib.
So any guidance or tips is appreciated.
Thanks

This is already being discuss in one of your other threads. Let's close this one out and concentrate on the one I've already replied to.
Thanks

Initialize Data Source errors

Hello,
We are running EP6 SP2 Patch34. We have a custom DataSource xml file so that we can connect to 2 different MSAD Domains.
This morning the account we use in one of the domains was set to expired so we were getting the following errors in the console logs
<i><b>Warning data source is not initialized</b></i>
We have since fixed the issue with the ID, but we are still getting these errors in the logs.
Does anyone know how to Initialize the datasource again without restarting the portal?
Thanks,
Keith

Thank you for reminding me what I already knew but in my haste to post out a reply I had forgotten to consider looking at the provider properties.
Today I did and the linked database still failed. The though occurred to me a little later to delete and recreate the linked db and bingo I had a working linked database to Oracle. Now I have three of them and the developer should be working with them now.
This is the first time I ever had to change a provider property to get the provider to work. I would have thought that when the Oracle client install process registered the OLE provider with SQL Server 2005 it would be set with the proper defaults to work.
Thanks again to everyone

Newbie Table Data Source Question

Hi,
I have a question about table data sources. I can set them up OK but I can't find the answers I'm looking for in the documentation or online.
With a table data source, the content column is the one that's indexed right? Are the attribute column sindexed as well? If the content column is null, will the attribute columns still be indexed?
Thanks in advance
Mark.

The attribute column is indexed along with the content column. However, the attribute column will not be indexed if the content column is null. That is, empty document is not indexed.
The workaround is to at least fill in a few space characters to the content column.

Quick Question re Data Source

Hi
I have a quick question re datasource login.
I havent touched my Crystal Reports for about a year. Since I created the reports (which users have been using through Crystal Reports server) I have changed my PC.
I need to make a change in the formulas of the reports so I have reinstalled Crystal Reports 11 onto my PC and opened the reports. The forumula change is simple but I am having a nightmare with the data source login. The report runs against an SQL database. From memory all I did the last time was create an ODBC connection on my PC (which used the the SQL login sa account) and configured the reports to use that ODBC connection. When I open the report it asks me for the data source location which I tell it to use the one I created and the report runs fine.
If I close Crystal Reports and and then re-open, I press F5 to run the report and it gain asks me for the data source credentials.
Any ideas, I'm sure it is something simple I am missing?
Thanks

Guys
Thanks for your help
Ive managed to fix it but not really sure how although I'm sure a few of the things you have mentioned is what I have done.
I basically restored the reports from last nights backup (before I did the changes), re-did the changes and saved and now it seems to work. I think the difference here is that I had created the odbc connection prior to changing the reports - if that makes sense?
What I would like to do is fully understand how this data source connection works.
Don, when I open the report now and hit f5 the report presents me with the parameters and not the database login screen as it was doing before - how is this? What credentials is it using? The SQL sa account (which I configured the ODBC connection to use) or is it my domain account of which I assume permissions for this account must be set on the actual SQL database?
As you and Jeff suggested when I look at the datasource connection screen it shows "trusted Connection: 1" - what does this mean and how is this configured, have I configured this in Crystal somewhere?
Thanks
Andy

BI 7.0 Data Source Question

I have requirement in Funct spec from Tables EKKO , EKPO . The data sources 2lis_02_itm ,2lis_02_scl etc will have these tabels data . But in BI 7.0 there is a data source called 2LIS_06_Inv which provides data from all these data sources.i.e,
The new DataStore object of Invoice Verification (0LIV_DS01) is supplied with data by the new DataSource 2LIS_06_INV, whereas previously the relevant invoice verification data was only supplied by the three DataSources of Purchasing 2LIS_02_HDR (purchasing data (header level)), 2LIS_02_ITM (purchasing data (item level)), and 2LIS_02_SCL (purchasing data (delivery schedule line level)).
Iam already using this elis_06_inv in my other data model for another req. So my question here is instead of wasting time with creating this with 2lis_02_itm /hdr /scl Can I just use the new one that Iam already using for other req.
Thanks

Hi Harish,
You can use the same datasource to load data into different infoproviders. Just create new transformation rules and DTP assigning source as your datasource, for the new infoprovider. In the infopackage, schedule the data transfer to PSA and then execute the DTP to load the data, for the required infoprovider.
Hope this will help resolve your query.
