Generic and Master data delta.

HI,
Will you please give me the solution for 'The differenet delats we have in generic delta,what actually is a numeric pointer.. how does it pick delat..is it something like it picks a record which has changes in it or it it each neew record..
if suppose we have 1 to 10 customers, will numeric pointer pick every new customer like (11, 12 , 13) as deltas or changes in 1 to 10 customers itself..
And Regarding master data deltas,how will the master data pick the deltas, is it every new record as customer mentioned above will be picked or something other..
the basic thing i want to know is, will it pick any changes in attributes as delta also.. if suppose we have a customer 001 with an attribute as 0ACCNT_GRP, if in any case if this 0ACCNT_GRP has change.. will it even pick this as an delata or not...
i would appreciate your response..
Thanks & Regards,
Shashikanth.

Hi Shashi,
Well....I could give some points on the master data delta..Its achieved by the ALE change pointers mechanism.
There are some tables responsible for storing the changes...CDHDR and CDPOS are good candidates for this.
Hope this helps..

Marc.

Master data delta

BW Experts,
Right now we are doing all full loads for our master data. I have heard about Master data deltas which brings only the changed and new records. what is the setting to be made in BW for this. Also what is the setting to be made in R/3 3.1i and R/3 4.7. Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ashwin

Hi,
For MD deltas to occur, the process is the same as transactions delta. On the R3 side you need to make sure that the std datasource is delta enabled (most are). If its a generic one, then you need to make that delta enabled if not already.
On the BW side, you need to set up an infopackage to do initialization without data transfer(since you are already doing full loads) and then set up the delta.
One word of caution here, would be to do a full just around the time you set up the delta, so as not to lose any delta data, as there might be new MD records or changes to existing ones that might not get captured. This is very rare, but its better to do a full around that time.
Cheers,
Kedar

How does Master Data delta works.

Can any body please explain me what is data flow in master data delta.Are the ale change pointers utilised , if yes how..And is delta queue used in master data delta.

Amit,
As you may be aware of this, ALE Change pointers are used to minimize the no of records to be sent to the extracting systemextractos. in other words the master data delta is been handled this way. It is better that you read the following that should be giving you some idea.

Master data delta load failure

hello Friends,
Today i have faced cost center master data delta load failed in my project.
The error is - Requesting the last delta for master data is not supported.
As it is delta load, I have followed below steps.
1. Request made forcefully red.
2. Triggered same infopackage and load completed successfully.
friends, can you please outline the error and why it has came, as i have checked OSS notes but still not able to find exact notes for it.
As i have to give the reason to the clilent , please your help weill appriciated.
Please suggest me this error belongs to , and why it came.
s it is completed sucessfully still i have to give details to my client.
Regards,

Hi,
There r lot of reasons to fail the master data load, the error which u got was because of failure in the source system.
The error is - Requesting the last delta for master data is not supported.
This is due if a delta is still running then it gives that message, u have to check whether it is running in the source system, if not u can make it to red then repeat the load.
for checking follow the menu path from monitor ---evironment->job over view->in source system, there u have to enter the user id password it will take to directly SM37 with that job name.
Hope it helps.

How the master data delta works

hi, experts
i want to know how the master data delta (ale pointer) works? what the principle is? for example, the 0asset_attr datasource has 20 fields, any of the 20 fields changes can triger the delta? if i enhance 3 fields to the asset master data, does the 3 fields change can trigger delta?

Application Link Enabling (ALE) change pointers are configured and used to be able to trigger processing of an outbound process, such as data extraction, and determine only those Master Data records that have changed. This is all done without the need for a program being required to determine deltas.
SAP delivered program, RBDMIDOC runs periodically and deterlines if change pointers have been updated for specific message types. New or modified Master Data records are automatically initiated via ALE. RBDMIDOC references the correct IDoc program for any given type via TBDME (the TBDME table also cross-references message types with the ALE change pointer table) so that the data goes where it should and is processed accordingly. Tcode BD60 is the interface in SAP for maintaining the TBDME table.
When a change is made to the standard content Master Data record, the delta will be identified. Any columns that have been enhanced to the Master Data will not be identified as a delta because enhancements are a post-extraction process and only get updated after the standard content structure has been populated.

Is there settng source system level for master data delta loading perfo

Hi Viwers,
Good Morning,
I am loading data from the source to target level for Master data it is taking too much time,I would like to know the how to increase the master data delta loading performance.
I would like to know the source system level is there any setting requited & target system level also.
Please give your inputs..........
Thanks & Regards,
Venkat Vanarasi.

Venkat -
Are u deleting the indexes of data target before delta loading ? If not,delete the indexes of data target before delta loading and recreate them after delta loading is done.This procedure increase load performance.You can perform whole procedure in process chain.

REPEAT DELTA WILL WORK FOR MASTER DATA DELTA LOADS

Hi Guru's,
REPEAT DELTA WILL WORK FOR MASTER DATA DELTA LOADS?
AS I AM NEW TO SAP-BI CAN ANY ONE GIVE THE DETAIL EXPLANATION ON IT.
IT WILL BE GREAT AND HELPFULL.
Thanks and Regards,
CM

Hi CM,
yes you can perform the repeat delta even for the master data if the datasource which was supplying the data was delta capable.
You can do the repeat delta only in case if your previous request was erroneous and dont forget to make the request red in the status,so that system will treat like you are requesting the failed request once again where in case you will miss the previous request, i,e erroneous request if you dont make the request red.
when you make the request red manually in the status,the pointer will move to the previous request once again in the delta queue and there will be no chance of missing the delta records.
This process was same for both transaction as well as master data.

Sunil...

Managing Org units and Master Data in project structure

How are Org units and Master data managed at the project structure? What would be the appropriate place holders for them in the structure. Should we manage it at the top of the project structure or within the business scenarios/processes. On what basis should we decide this? How would this impact in case of a global template rollout?
Please share your experiences regarding this.
Thanks.
Mike

any talented guy do this way.
i think that ur working in E2E project work
before singoff ur business process u should give to ur users master data templets..they collect for masterdatas in before realization phase...that time u should know how many specifications is there and in spections how many in quantitative and how many qualitative u will indentify. if any query let me back.

Bi 7.0 for cube and master data steps

hi friends,
can u give me step by step comparision between bi 7.0 and bi 3.0 for cube ods and master data, ple explaing me what are the steps difference for those in bi 7.0 .
and reporting is same or any difference in bi 7.0 .
other than sap.help.com material, if u have any other or any screen shots. ple send me.
Thanking u

what abt master data, in master data we are using only transfer rules, here also we are using transformation and dtp again.
Yes we would be using transformations and DTP's on the masterdata too. but the system would prompt to make IO a infoprovider in order to use the new functionality. There is another work around for it, but we can discuss it later, orelse search the forum for that option, i have replied to couple of questions regarding that.
what abt reporting any things other than calculated kf restricted kf, filters rows columns, free chaststics, variables, any chnages in screen.
The basic functionality of all the above mentioned objects havent changes, and the query designer itself, there are hell a lot of changes in the appearance and it will take a while to get used to it and find your way with all the functionalities.
i have doubt bps menas businees planning simulation what is this, bec i have idea we can use transactional cube and transactional ods for write accress for planninmg also
BPS is something I have no clue abt... (you dont see me answering in Business planning forum)

Transformation of transactional and master data (in BW/BI or PI/XI?)

Dear all,
I have the following requirement:
I frequently transfer transactional as well as master data between various systems. From what I heard, SAP XI/PI is a plattform to handle the transformation and distribution of such transactional and master data. Unfortunately, the data quality is often not sufficient.
As a consequence, some records need to be manually modified/completed. Let's assume order data needs to be exchanged and an order is characterized by a customer. When the order record contains a faulty CustomerID that does not exist, the CustomerID in the order has to be manually adjusted by a person. And this would require some user interface.
Could I implement something like this in SAP XI/PI? Or would I require another SAP solution?
Some of my relevant applications are in SAP BI/BW. There, I could implement something like this using an ODS for the "problematic" records and some maintenance views. Would you rather suggestion such a solution in BI/BW. But what would I do with the transformation between non-SAP systems?
Best regards, Daniel

Hi Daniel,
I prefer JAVA mapping.
There is lot you can do with message mapping (the graphical mapping editor):
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/49/1ebc6111ea2f45a9946c702b685299/frameset.htm
with the predefined standard functions:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/c4cdfc334824478090739c04c4a249/frameset.htm
If this is not enough you can write your own so called user defined functions in JAVA:

Message Type inconsistent for Master Data Deltas

Hi All,
I have a question regarding the message types for the master data deltas. What I noticed on our server was that the message types (TCODE: BD52) is different for different severs for the same master data deltas (mostly they would begin with RS. If you do a wild card search RS*, you would find them for the different master data delta enabled extractors). Is this standard or is there something that we can do about it? I only ask because we modified the message types for one of the extractors to create a delta for the enhanced field on our extractor. This was done to create a delta when the enhanced field changes when nothing else changes on our standard extractor.
Please advise. Also let me know if you want me to clarify something above.
Regards,
Ashmith Roy

RSnnnn message type is created/assigned(in the source system) first time you initialize the delta for the master data. Hence it is normal to have different no assigned to different master data depending on when the particular master data was init (on that system).
When you say you enhanced the message type, what did you do?

Problem in Master Data and Master Data Lines

Hi All
I'm facing a big problem...I have a UDO with object type as Master.....As master table and master data line table has code field in common the value for this column should be same....but the problem arises here...it happenes that when i enter the data Code field of master data table has different value from code field of master data lines...
Any one can please help........

Hi Pati,
After posting the message did you get a delivery confirmation reply? If not, you need to open a new message saying you have yet to get a answer for your previous message (and state the previous message number).
Then sill you get no answer, you need to get in contact with your SAP Business Partner (if you're a customer) or your Channel Partner (if your a SAP Business Partner).

Diffrence btw configurable and master data?

can anyone pls tell me the difference between configurable data and master data?
thanks
Edited by: tracey_hrecc6.0 on Sep 30, 2010 5:20 PM

Configuration Data is what is created by the people who work on the software (an example would be the data created in various tables while creating Periodic Work Schedule Rules and the DWS & PWS behind them)
while the Master Data is what is created by the users of the software (an example would be the data created when a user saves the IT0007 that identifies what Periodic Work Schedule Rule an employee is assigned to).

Difference between earliest master data and master data change bonus

Hi,
Can anyone tell me what is the exact difference between earliest master data change and master data change bonus? Whenver any infotype is changed, why are the dates updated in both the fields? Is it not enough if only Earliest master data change field is updated? I was thinking that Earliest master data change bonus field is updated when IT267 is created, but even if i change the time data both the fields are getting updated. Please advise?
Thanks

Hi,
Earliest master dat change date is date beyond which no master data change can be put in for employee in infotype.
It is used to restrict any master data entry beyond certain date as restriction for employees that client has set and is moreover controlled at control record level but ocassionally used at employee level whenever payment was hold for long time and so on.
Master data change bonus date is date which gets automatically filled in whenever there is any master data change.
This date cannot be past earliest master data change date and will throw error if tried for employee to input.
Thanks,
Ameet

InfoObjects both appear in transaction data and master data

Hi,
If your transaction data has say infoObjects MMM, EEE, and TTT that you're loading daily or weekly, would you also enhance the infoObject MMM to have EEE and TTT as attributes. MMM has master data (attribuets and texts), and EEE and TTT are not key figures. If yes or no, what would be the reasoning for it?
Thanks,
Will

Hi:
Thanks for the clear explanation. I am working with the material 0MATERIAL. I am enhancing some other InfoObjects for 0MATERIAL_ATTR and 0MATERIAL and at the same time those InfoObjects are being loaded as transactional data too. I am wondering and perplexed about why the requirement would include a view of the data based on the transacitonal load date and the master data load date per your explanation link? Would it have to do something with historical tracking of data?
1) Since most of the time, we use Business Content, IF it comes with oading both Master Data & Transaction Data same time, we go with it becuase we don't want to unnecessarily change deliverd Content.
2) ANother good reason is Rememner, Master Data (e.g., for 0material) is not ONLY for the Cueb you are working on, BUT, its shared among other Cuebs in BW landscape. So, there si a agood chance that other Cube will use 0material, but doesnot have e.g., 0MATL_GROUP as transaction data. So, you should have Master Data that will be shared by all the Cubes/InfoProviders using it.
3) Next, if your Master Data changes (and your Master Data is not Time Dependent), then you can go to Cube and see what was the value on the day you laoded the Cube (I guess I already said this info in prevous post, just to repeat).
Have you come across or implemented this requirement and why would anyone want to implement this approach to see data from the transactional and master data point of view in terms of the load date?
Yes, I had come across many examples similar to the one that I just stated.
