Filter on multiprovider

Hello,
What happens if you filter on a certain value of a characteristic, in a query based on a multiprovider, if some of the attached info cubes contain the characteristic in question and some do not?
How will the filter work in this case? Will there be a different effect if you put the filter in the free characteristics area?
Regards,
F C

Hello,
The identification is set for the IO for all the cubes in which it exists, so the filter does apply these cubes. However, since the IO does not exist in some of the other cubes, then it will not be available in the multiprovider for the filter selection.
To my understanding, this setting will filter out the relevant records from the cubes which has the IO and the filter will not apply to the cubes which does not have the IO (or ID). The filter will then be invalid for these cubes and all records will be shown.
You have however stated that nothing will be displayed from these cubes. Did I understand you correctly? For the cubes in which the filtered IO does not exist, will I still see all records from these cubes?

F C

RSR_OLAP_BADI for virtual characteristics not getting triggered!!!

I am facing a strange problem and am a little pressed for time to solve the same. Any help/guidance related to this will be highly appreciated.
I am working on BI 7.0. I have two implementations of the BADI RSR_OLAP_BADI for virtual characteristics,
(1) say A, that we implemented as a proof of concept with filter as multiprovider M1
(2) say B, that in implemented with filter as multiprovider M2
Both were working fine and I was able to put breakpoints inside the code and debug whenever required. I had used it till last week and everything was fine.
Today, I had to change implementation B due to a new requirement. So a new characteristic was added to M2 and the code in B was extended at appropriate places to fill this new virtual characteristic also. However, even though the change was successfully activated and the BADI looked fine, it was not triggered when the query was executed. I checked with another query on M2 which was the query for which the implementation was initially made. For that also the BADI is not getting triggered. I put break points in the define, initialize and compute methods but none are hit during the query execution!
I further ran the queries on M1, which shud have called the implementation A. Then also the BADI is not getting triggered. Please note that implementation A, multiprovider M1 or the queries on it were not changed at all.
I really need to fix this issue at the earliest. What am I missing? Why are the BADIs not getting triggered eventhough the implementations are active, the BADIs are error free and the filters are correctly defined?
Are there any global settings that can turn off all BADIs?
Please help.
Thanks,
Sarath

Further, when I created a fresh BADI implementation in a different system (a sandbox system), the BADI is working fine.
But in the Development system the BADIs are still not getting triggered. I made the exact same implementation as the one which worked in the different system.
Another point - when I see the Technical Information tab of queries from RSRT, or RSRT2 they have Virtual Characteristics/Key Figures "NO" in the development system.
For the queries in the prototype system in which the BADI is working this field in "Y".
Any idea how this is decided and how it can be changed to Y from NO?
One more strange thing is that there are other active implementation of this BADI used by other teams here and none of them are getting triggered. They are all active and were all working fine till the last few days!
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sarath

Query on Multiprovider with filter characteristic not in all infoprovider

Hello,
I do a query on multiprovider. I want to filter the profitcenters of the plants.
One of the cubes is a cube which doesn't have the proficenter characteristic.
When I restrict the profitcenter the data of the cube without the characteristic
profit center is completly filtered out.
I could solve this with restricted keyfigures but because all our plants have different
profit centers I would have to create a huge amount of resctricted keyfigures.
Is there a possiblity to set a filter on a characteristic and still get data out of those cubes
of the mulitprovider which don't have this characteristic?
Thanks.
Regards, Lars.

Your only choice is to use restricted key figures as you mentioned. As you already know, you can only successfully filter on multiproviders if all data targets contain the characteristic which is to be filtered (eg profit centre).
The only other solution would be to create another data target (ods) that contains plant and profit centre key combination you want to filter and add it to your multiprovider.

Multiprovider report problem

Let me explain you the Multiprovider report with example .
Multiprovider is created based on Basic cube and DSO . Basic cube has Billing doc number in line item dimension .
DSO has Billing document number , Item number and Partner function as primary key.
I have Created one diemension on Multiprovider where I have assigned Billing document number , and other 2 data fields from DSO which are not available in Cube . Is it correct design ?
DSO have below records .. - Doc no , Item and PF are primary key of DSO .
Billing doc no      Partner function     Personal Number    Customer number
100                                 ER                                1
100                                 Y1                                                              555
100                                  Y2                                                              111
In Cube I have below records -
Billing doc no     Sales Org          Netvalue            Total sale
100                      001                      $ 3000               $3200
200                        001                    $ 5000                $5100
When I execute the report based on MP by partner function i should get below result.
Billing doc   PF    Personal Number    Customer number Netvalue   Total sales
100             ER         1                              555                       3000          3200
Is it possible ?
Let me know if my question is not clear .

Hi
Multiprovider is a union of infoproviders.So you can achieve the report you want by building a Multiprovider with the Cube and DSO.You have to assign the Billing doc no to both Cube and DSO during the craetion of the Multiprovider.
When you execute the report on the MP on Purchase Order, all the values of Billing doc no will be fetched from both cube and DSO(as MP is a union).
According you can set a filter to fetch only specfic data from a specific part-provider of the Multiprovider.
Also At query Designer level a InfoObject : 0INFOPROV will be available which will give and option to fetch the data only from a specifi part provider of MP if required.

MultiProvider report not functioning - overwriting protected field

Hello,
I have a multiprovider that combines data from the Sales Overview cube (0SD_C03) with a custom plan cube (data from COPA and SIS). In writing queries off of the (active) multiprovider, short dumps occur except when only running against one infoprovider. In other words, if the query is restricted to only show Sales data (0SD_C03), it works fine. If the query is restricted to only show Plan data (custom plan cube), then it works fine. However, the intersection of the two does not work - which is the entire functionality of the multiprovider (a join).
I've cut the query back to the very basics: Fiscal Year and one Key Figure (that is present in both source infocubes).   Without specifying or splitting out the InfoProviders, it should combine the data (total the two), but instead creates a short dump. Using a structure to split Actuals from Plan also results the short dump. The only way to get the report to actually execute and return is to restrict it to just one InfoProvider. I tried copying the MultiProvider and starting over, but that did not improve the situation. The failure occurs after the variable screen has been filled in. (Also tried w/out variables.)
Using LISTCUBE, the data is found in a single execution (no filter applied to 0INFOPROV) and splits out to the two infoproviders w/ approp. fiscal year and Key Figure totals. So there seems to be something at the reporting layer malfunctioning.
Here's the ST22 short dump:
Does anyone have any ideas?

Report on Multiprovider # values problem

Hi Experts,
I am doing report on Multiprovider which has got 5 cubes. Let us say, data comes from Cube1 and Cube2. I have Notification number as the common field in both. I am having 2 more characteristics Item from Cube1, Completion date from Cube 2. Similarly 2 keyfigures Qty from Cube1 and no.of defects from Cube2.
     Notific ||      item        ||date            ||defects     ||     Qty
     10001 ||       001            ||       -                  ||     2    ||                -
     10001 ||           -            || 10/02/2009        ||     -    ||                5
Now when I execute the report it gives # values where item is not present, similarly for Comp date also. User wanted to see both records in one line. I tried to use " Constant selection" option, and exclude # values in the filter, but it is working fine if any one of the above characterstic is in drill down but not both, in case of both it shows no applicable data.
Because If I exclude # values for both chars at a time, then obiviously no data comes.
How do we achieve this scenario, with 2 characteristics in drill down which are not common in 2 cubes? I can' t go for infoset now, because design is already happened. Very long back I have seen Prakash Darji's reply on the same issue. I could not get that thread. Please assist me on this ?
Regards
Sreekanth S

Hi,
You can either use infosets or use constant selection.
For constant selection, check the blog below:

Query takes long time on multiprovider

Hi,
When i execute a query on the multiprovider, it takes very long time. it doesnt show up the results also. It just keep processing. I have executed the report only for one day but still it doesnt show any result. But when i execute on the cube, it executes quickly and shows the result.
Actually i added one more cube to the multiprovider and ten transported that multiprovider to QA and PRD. Transportation went on successfully. After this i am unalbe to execute the reports on that multiprovider. What might be the cause? your help is appreciated.
Thanks
Annie

Hi Annie.......
Checklist for the performance of a Query........from a DOc........
1. If exclusions exist, make sure they exist in the global filter area. Try to remove exclusions by subtracting out inclusions.
2. Use Constant Selection to ignore filters in order to move more filters to the global filter area. (Use ABAPer to test and validate that this ensures better code)
3. Within structures, make sure the filter order exists with the highest level filter first.
4. Check code for all exit variables used in a report.
5. Move Time restrictions to a global filter whenever possible.
6. Within structures, use user exit variables to calculate things like QTD, YTD. This should generate better code than using overlapping restrictions to achieve the same thing. (Use ABAPer to test and validate that this ensures better code).
7. When queries are written on multiproviders, restrict to InfoProvider in global filter whenever possible. MultiProvider (MultiCube) queries require additional database table joins to read data compared to those queries against standard InfoCubes (InfoProviders), and you should therefore hardcode the infoprovider in the global filter whenever possible to eliminate this problem.
8. Move all global calculated and restricted key figures to local as to analyze any filters that can be removed and moved to the global definition in a query. Then you can change the calculated key figure and go back to utilizing the global calculated key figure if desired
9. If Alternative UOM solution is used, turn off query cache.
10. Set read mode of query based on static or dynamic. Reading data during navigation minimizes the impact on the R/3 database and application server resources because only data that the user requires will be retrieved. For queries involving large hierarchies with many nodes, it would be wise to select Read data during navigation and when expanding the hierarchy option to avoid reading data for the hierarchy nodes that are not expanded. Reserve the Read all data mode for special queriesu2014for instance, when a majority of the users need a given query to slice and dice against all dimensions, or when the data is needed for data mining. This mode places heavy demand on database and memory resources and might impact other SAP BW processes and tasks.
11. Turn off formatting and results rows to minimize Frontend time whenever possible.
12. Check for nested hierarchies. Always a bad idea.
13. If u201CDisplay as hierarchyu201D is being used, look for other options to remove it to increase performance.
14. Use Constant Selection instead of SUMCT and SUMGT within formulas.
15. Do review of order of restrictions in formulas. Do as many restrictions as you can before calculations. Try to avoid calculations before restrictions.
16. Check Sequential vs Parallel read on Multiproviders.
17. Turn off warning messages on queries.
18. Check to see if performance improves by removing text display (Use ABAPer to test and validate that this ensures better code).
19. Check to see where currency conversions are happening if they are used.
20. Check aggregation and exception aggregation on calculated key figures. Before aggregation is generally slower and should not be used unless explicitly needed.
21. Avoid Cell Editor use if at all possible.
22. Make sure queries are regenerated in production using RSRT after changes to statistics, consistency changes, or aggregates.
23. Within the free characteristics, filter on the least granular objects first and make sure those come first in the order.
24. Leverage characteristics or navigational attributes rather than hierarchies. Using a hierarchy requires reading temporary hierarchy tables and creates additional overhead compared to characteristics and navigational attributes. Therefore, characteristics or navigational attributes result in significantly better query performance than hierarchies, especially as the size of the hierarchy (e.g., the number of nodes and levels) and the complexity of the selection criteria increase.
25. If hierarchies are used, minimize the number of nodes to include in the query results. Including all nodes in the query results (even the ones that are not needed or blank) slows down the query processing. The u201Cnot assignedu201D nodes in the hierarchy should be filtered out, and you should use a variable to reduce the number of hierarchy nodes selected.

How to find list of Queries built on Multiprovider &steps to transport quer

Dear Experts,
I got a task to Check if any queries are built on a multiprovider and to change the filter condition on 0INFOPROV to restrict some more Infoproviders in all the queries built on multiprovider .
Request you to help me out how can i find list of queries created based on Multiprovider wise and steps to be followed to restrict 0INFOPROV.
And one more doubt is, what are steps to be followed to transport the queries.
Thanks in advance for favorable assistance.
Thanks & Regards,
Ramesh - Kumar.

Hi..
Follow the steps below:
1) Goto RSA1 -> Metadata Repository -> Select Multiprovider -> Find (Cntrl+F) give your object name -> Double click on search result object, this will give you detailed view of used that particular Objects.
2) To restrict infoprovider within that Multiprovider for Query reullts, Double click on Multiprovider -> choose Change mode -> You'll be able to select/deslect the check boxes under the Infoprovider Tabs (Infocube, DSO, Info Objct, Infosets, Aggr levels) there you can check the infoproviders as per your requirements then selelct the display options with Display All Infoproviders (1st option) at down then continue and save the settings.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Ramanan.

Multiprovider is not acting properly

Hi Gurus,
Need some help on the following issue.
A multiprovider built on 4 cubes and profit centre info objects. For a new reporting requirement on this multiprovider, i had to filter based on navigational attribute. i found after filtering using that navigational attribute one key figure is not populating in the report at all. After detail analysis on the issue i found that the navigatinal attribute is enabled on the multiprovider level but in one of the cube where the unpopulated key figure is based, the navigational attribute is not enabled. So, i enabled the navigational attribute on the cube level. But the key figure is still not populating in the report.
I did the list cube both on multiprovider and on the infocube,
In the infocube's listcube the navigatinal attribute is populating along with key figure.
In the multiprovider's listcube i choose all the field along with field infoprovider to see from which cube data is coming.
I found that navigational attribute is populating for all the cube except for the infocube where the key figure is based on.
I have done some analysis in RSRT using the report. I have run the report with multiprovider explain option. It shows in the infocube some genenal restriction for the navigational attribute. That is why the navigatinal attribute is excluded.
Please help me.

Hi Mitu,
Right click on the navigational attribute in the multiprovider and choose identify/assign.
Check the assignment of the navigational attribute of the infoprovider(cube) with respect to the navigational attribute of the multiprovider.
The checkbox for the assignments should be checked for all the four infocubes.
Hope it helps,
Best regards,
Sunmit.

How to create suitable aggregates for queries on multiprovider ?

hi all,
goal reduce db time of query and improve performance
i have queries on a multicube. I have 5 cubes under the multiprovider. I having performance issue with one of the cubes. it had
high slection/transfer ratio. The same cube had high 94% DB TIme. All the BW and DB indexes and stats are green. I chose
the path of aggregates. when i tried suggest from proposal it is giving me query time and date range and i gave last
3 days and query time 150 sec. it is suggesting huge number of aggregates like 150 of them and not getting reduced much
when i tried optimize funcitonality.
The faulty cube had nearly 9 million records and 4 years of data
1. generally how many aggregates do we need to create on a cube?
2. how do i use propose from last navigation? it is not creating any aggregates
3. is there a way for system to propose less number of aggregates?
4. if nothing works i want to cut the volume of the aggregates base on years or quarters. how do i do that?
i created with time charactersitic 0calquarter and dragged in ocal day and 0calmonth. activated and filled in ..but
query is not hitting it when i do a monthly selection. i tried bringing in all the other dimensions...except line item
dimenisons....no use ...it is not hitting the manual aggregates in RSRT.the slection on 0calquarter is * .
5. should i change it to fixed value and bring in the line items too and create it?
6. I wanted to try propose aggregate from query option..but my query is on multiprovider...and not able to copy it to cube..
plz help me how to find the suitable aggregates for query on multiprovider
7. should i create any new indexes on the cube using the chractrestics in the where condiotion of select statment...but in
that case, select statement changes with drill down.......how do i handle it ?
8. how will i make sure the aggregates work for all queries run time imporvement?
9. plz suggest other approaches if any with procedures
this is a urgent problem plz help...
<b>thanks in advance
points will be assigned for inputs</b>

1. generally how many aggregates do we need to create on a cube?
it depends on your specific needs, you can need none or several.
2. how do i use propose from last navigation? it is not creating any aggregates
Can you elaborate?
3. is there a way for system to propose less number of aggregates?
In any of the menus of screen for creating aggregates you have an option for sytem propose aggregates for one specific queries i am not sure it worked with multicubes.
4. if nothing works i want to cut the volume of the aggregates base on years or quarters. how do i do that?
You should delete 0calday from aggregates in order to accumulate data for any greater time unit. Other solution for times is to study try to do a partition in cube.
5. should i change it to fixed value and bring in the line items too and create it?
Can you elaborate?
6. I wanted to try propose aggregate from query option..but my query is on multiprovider...and not able to copy it to cube..
Answered before, maybe you can create a query only with data on that cube that appears in multicube query in order to proposal any aggregate in thath cube.
7. should i create any new indexes on the cube using the chractrestics in the where condiotion of select statment...but in
that case, select statement changes with drill down.......how do i handle it ?
is not recomendable create new indexes in multidemensional structures. Try avoid selections for navigational attributes, if necesary add navigate attributte as dimension attributes, put filters in filter section in BEX.
8. how will i make sure the aggregates work for all queries run time imporvement?
try transaction st03
9. plz suggest other approaches if any with procedures
Some other approches yet answering
Good luck

How to create @prompt filter at universe level for my Webi reports

Dear all,
I am using BO XI 3.1 SP3 with SAP BW 7.0.
I have created an open[big] query based on a multiprovider for my OLAP universe.
OBJECTIVE: to create LOV prompts for Calender year, for my webi reports, which takes 2010 as input then offsets the input year and then shows Gross sales for the prompt year [2010], 2009 & 2008.
ISSUE: if 2010 is selected in webi prompt filter, then it doesn't display any data for any other year, lets say gross sales for 2009.
ALTERNATIVE: i tried to create a prompt filter in the universe with this syntax,
<FILTER KEY="@Select(Calendar year\Calendar year).[TECH_NAME]"><CONDITION OPERATORCONDITION="InList"><CONSTANT TECH_NAME="@Prompt('Enter year','N',,Mono,Free,Not_Persistent)"/></CONDITION></FILTER>
it worked fine. but i also want to create a measure or dimension which subtracts 1 from the above filter and return a result with a previous year.
e.g
PROMPT: 2010
PROMPT-1: 2009
Universe structure
[TIME]                         class
[Calender year]        class
     [Calender year]     dimension ( type:string)
Please guide me with correct procedure and syntax.

masood44 ,
I think you should just prompt for year and capture and use the selection at the webi report level.
say you have calendar year(convert it into numeric) prompt at webi level. say user selects 2010 capture it in a variable var1:userresponse('enter year'). then create a variABLE (var2) with formula :
if(isPromptAnswered('enter year')='yes';([year] where year inlist(var1;var1-1;var1-2);null)
build your report with var2 and gross income
Thanks,
Karthik

Multiprovider displays zero value for Key figure

HI,
Multiprovider contains 3 cubes, in which one keyfigure (YDAYS) presents in two cubes and assigned to multiprovider from two cubes. But iam getting zero value in the multiprovider level. But in the cube level getting the data. This problem iam getting in testing system.
When i compated Develoment system and Testing system everything is correct, mapping, assignment .
Any ideas what might be the problem
Thanks / Venkata

Check the report to see if it has any filters that is available in only one of the infoproviders. if thats the case then move the filter and make it restricted.
Use RSRT to see which infoproviders are being hit when you execute the query. Look in detail. I had the same problem once and careful investigation revealed a filter that was at the report level instead of kf restriction level.

Error occured when selecting a filter value on the query

hi,
after the execution of the query on a multiprovider, i select a filter value for a particular characteristic then i get a pop up error message "Error reading the data of infoprovider ZTC_SUV12"
could anyone of you help me

Unwanted LOVs - Universe on a BEx query on top of a Multiprovider

BO XI 3.1
BW 7.01
OLAP Universe on a BEx query
BEx query on top of a Multiprovider
Multiprovider on 2 DSOs; lets say DSO1 and DSO2
BEx query has a global filter for "INFOPROVIDER = DSO1"
BEx query has a user input variable defined for "Field1" (Field1 is present in both DSOs)
In BEx, F4 on Field1 variable entry gives the values of Field1 from DSO1. (which is what we want)
Expected LOVs for the generated prompt for Field1 in the WEBI report: Values of Field1 from DSO1
Problem:
Actual LOVs returned in WEBI report: Values of Field1 from both DSO1 and DSO2
Has anyone faced this before?
Thank you

That is correct. The BEx properties do not carry over to the BO side. In Webi 3.1 here are the default selections for LOVs (as far as I know)
OLAP universe against BEx query on an infoprovider (Infocube, DSO, Multiprovider) - Only values in Infoprovider
OLAP universe against BEx query on an Infoset - Values in the master data table
My understanding now is
OLAP universe against BEx query on a Multiprovider - Only values in ALL Infoproviders under the Multiprovider

I have seen this note before and according to it you can set an RSADMIN parameter MDX_JOIN_CUBE_DIME and have more control over the LOVs.
MDX_JOIN_CUBE_DIME = "A" -> The read mode for all LOVs is Only values in master data
MDX_JOIN_CUBE_DIME = "I" -> The read mode for LOVs is either master data or infoprovider depending on the infoobject settings

Well, that would work but it would defeat the purpose of having a Multiprovider for logical partitioning, wouldn't it?

How to restrict the data with Filter in Query - Updated the description

Hi all,
Free Characteristics: u2018Service Orderu2019 & u2018Statusu2019.
Key Figures: u2018Response Timeu2019 & u2018Data Record Counteru2019.
Calculated Key Figure: u2018Resp Time > 1 hru2019.
Only u2018Plantu2019 is in ROWS and u2018Resp Time > 1 hru2019 & u2018Data Record Counteru2019 are in COLUMNS section.
The report looks like the below:
Plant---Resp Time > 1 hr -
Data Record Counter
100--1--
2
101--1--
3
After dragging the u2018Service Ordersu2019 from u2018Free Characteristicsu2019 , the report looks like the below:
Plant---Service Order -
Resp Time > 1 hr ---Data Record Counter
100--111--
1
100--120--
1
101--130--
1
101--141--
1
101--150--
1
I want only records whose u2018STATUSu2019 is u2018Yu2019. The u2018STATUSu2019 is u2018Blanku2019 for Service Orders 12, 13 & 15
and those records should not be there in the report.
The report should be like the below:
After dragging the u2018Service Ordersu2019 from u2018Free Characteristicsu2019, the report looks like the below:
Plant---Service Order -
Resp Time > 1 hr ---Data Record Counter
100--111--
1
101--141--
1
After creating the Restricted KF u2018Countu2019 on u2018Data Record Counteru2019 by restricting u2018STATUSu2019 to u2018Yu2019 and
dragging the u2018Service Ordersu2019 from u2018Free Characteristicsu2019, the Count shows ZERO :
Plant---Service Order -
Resp Time > 1 hr ---Count
100--111--
0
100--120--
0
101--130--
0
101--141--
0
101--150--
0
If I keep the Filter (globally) on 'STATUS = Y' then it returns 'NO Data'.
If I keep the u2018Service Ordersu2019 is in u2018Rowsu2019 and the Filter on u2018STATUSu2019 (u2018Yu2019) then it works fine, but the report should be based on PLANT.
Thanks in advance.
Reagrds,

Hi Gurus,
Thanks for u r all prompt replies...
Got the Solution...
Actually no need to work at query level...
iN Multiprovider.... we can select the WBS element Char for which ever cube data we want... just drop down the char in to the dimension which we need and R/click the Char select identification of participating char.. un-select the check box for char WBS element for the Cubes which we dont require the data......
Thanks to all
Cheers
