Generic datasource technical settings: Data class : Transaction or Master?

Dear Experts,
I am not sure what is the difference in datasource technical settings (in R/3) : Data Class = Appl1 (transaction data) vs Data Class = Appl0 (master data).
The reason for asking is i have a z-table used as the table of a generic datasource and this table contains master data.
The Data Class is set as Transaction data.
It works. So, what is the difference if its set to Master data as the Data Class? Is there performance difference during data extraction?
Please advise.
regards
Pascal

Hi,
Data classes are assigned during table creation and are maintained in technical settings,
Data class: By choosing data class some space will be allocated to the table in the database when it is created.
Each data class corresponds to a physical area in which all the tables assigned to this data class are stored.
There are 3 main data classes:
a) APPL0- Which is the master data. Data which will be rarely changed.
An example of master data can be like name, employee number and telephone number.
b) APPL1-Which is transaction data. Data that is frequently changed.
An example of transaction data is the goods in go down which will change as per the purchases.
c) APPL2-Which is organizational data. Customizing data that is defined when the system is installed and rarely changed.
Example may be table with country codes.
By assigning the data class to the table we can retrieve the data very easily.
There are also 2 more data classes USR and USR1, which are provided for the customer.
These are for the user developments. The tables assigned to these data classes are stored in a table space for user developments.

Generic Datasource Delta Settings Change

Hi Experts,
Currently the delta field in generic datasource is set to timestamp (LOCAL) and Upper limit is blank.
I need to change the delta settings to timestamp(UTC) or set the upper limit to 1000 seconds.
Can anyone tell me how to change this in production. Do i need to change this in dev and transport this to production.
If i do the changes to generic datasource, do i have to initialise the delta again?
Pls provide me the step by step solution.
Regards,
Anand

Ananda, What about the delta initialization? After transporting the datasource from R/3 dev to R/3 production, I have to replicate the datasource right.
In that case what will happen to my delta?.
One more thing incase i need to change only the upper limit value. Even for this, do i have to change it in dev and transport to production?

Anand

Regarding Generic DataSource loading transaction data

What I have done:
Create a Generic DataSource from a table, replicate it to BW.
Create a standard DataStore object, and create InfoPackage, and DTP.
Now I want to load data, What's the steps I need to do?
Start InfoPackage and execute DTP. But I can't see data in the DataStore. What's Wrong?
And Another Questions
I want to load data partially. I find Data Selection in InfoPackage, and enter values, and then what?
<removed by moderator>.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi,
You did right, but please check whether data is available in the table for which you created generic data source.
If data is available in the table, then schedule the info package and check whether data came to PSA or not.
If data is available till PSA then execute DTP.
To load data partially:
We can do at 2 levels. a) at infopackage level and b) DTP level
a) To load data selectively give particular selections at PSA level, which will brings the data to BW as per our selection.
b) We can load all the data till PSA without any selections at infopackage level and give selections at DTP level which will load data to the particular DSO/CUBE as per selection.
Hope this helps you.

Error while extracting data from Generic datasource

Hello Gurus,
I have encountered an error "Errors in source system" with status red while extracting data from generic datasource into DSO.
I have done below things:-
1. Checked the jobs in source system, the job is successfully completed
2. The generic datasource is active and supporting delta with calender day in source system.
3. No TRfc error and no idocs stucked.
4. No short dumps in source system.
5. The delta queue(RSA7) is showing 0 with status as green.
6. Replicated the datasource On BW side and also activated the transfer rules by RS_TRANSU_ACTIVATE_ALL
The problem has not yet solved. Could you guys please suggest me what might be the reason for this error......
Thanks,
Sonu

Hello,
I have used the generic delta using calender day.
Safety upper limit : - 1
Safety lowerr limit : - 0
I have made the entries in va01 transaction, but the delta queus is not getting updated which should show 1.
Do Generic extraction require any job to transfer data from Database table to delta queue.
We are not able to get the delta records on BW side. Please suggest.
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Sonu

Problem while attaching master data source to generic datasource

Hi All,
I have created a generic datasource using three tables in crm systems. the tables are CMSD_CB, CMAD_LO_PRICE AND CMSD_LO_QUANT.
i have loaded data to bw system and want to attach 0ORGUNIT master datasource to the generic datasource. so that i can get 0ORGUNIT hierarchy and sales grp/office details.
could some one help how to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Mahantesh

You don't have to attach the master data datasource to your generic datasource.
Master data is loaded separately from transaction data, so you will see your hierarchy from the moment you loaded it with the 0ORGUNIT hierarchy datasource into your infoobject 0ORGUNIT.

Generic datasource by function module to fetch data from multiple tables?

I'm writing a function module to fetch price, for generic datasource.
At first, extract test is OK. But InfoPackage never stop when loading data to PSA in BW.
And I find the example codes:
     OPEN CURSOR WITH HOLD S_CURSOR FOR
      SELECT (S_S_IF-T_FIELDS) FROM SFLIGHT
                               WHERE CARRID IN L_R_CARRID AND
                                     CONNID IN L_R_CONNID.
    ENDIF.                             "First data package ?
* Fetch records into interface table.
*   named E_T_'Name of extract structure'.
    FETCH NEXT CURSOR S_CURSOR
               APPENDING CORRESPONDING FIELDS
               OF TABLE E_T_DATA
               PACKAGE SIZE S_S_IF-MAXSIZE.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
      CLOSE CURSOR S_CURSOR.
      RAISE NO_MORE_DATA.
    ENDIF.
    S_COUNTER_DATAPAKID = S_COUNTER_DATAPAKID + 1.
ENDIF.
There using Cursor to fetch data package by package, and raise exception NO_MORE_DATA to stop the loading process.
Now I fetch data from multiple tables, I don't think I can use Cursor.
Then How can I handle this?
Thanks a lot.

Thanks

Table Technical settings for transfer data from developemnt to Quality

Hi All,
Please let me know which table techinical settings required for to transport table with data from development to quality?
Thanks & Regards,
padmaja.

Hi,
You do not require technical settings to transport data from dvlpmnt to quality.
However, you can transport any tables entries with a simple trick:
(1) Create a workbench request
(2) Change the request (or its task) and add the following entry: R3TR TABU <name of table> =>
(3) Enter the key values you want to transport, e.g.:
- <client>* for all entries of the current client
- add additional restrictions for the table entry (<client><bukrs>* for all entries of a given company code)
Best regards,
Prashant

Generic Datasource with Fuction Module with delta on Created Date

Hi Experts,
I have created a generic datasource using Function Module RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA. I have copied this function module and created a my own Function Module. I want to load delta using this. But I don't know how to handle delta in the code.
my code is working for full load but not for delta. I have seen that in ROOSOURCE tabel the Delta field is showing the AIE instead of D and extraction method is showing as F2. I have searched a lot of forums and articles but didn't get how to handle this.
Please advice.

Hi Amit,
Go through the link as suggested by AKhan which lets you understand the concept of offsets and the last extraction status.
In case of Table or View based GDS, the system takes care of the deltas based on the selections you make in the "Generic Delta" screen whereas in case of FM based DS, it is your responsibility to handle this part. Within your code, capture if the load is a Delta load (I_UPDMODE = D). Since your delta is on Created Date, maintain a Z table with name of the DS as the Key and a field representing the current value of the Delta field(created date in this case). When you first load the delta, there will be no record for your DS in this table. Create an entry with the current day. Next time when you load a delta, take this value, compare it with sy-datum and get all the records falling within these days. This has to be done in the Select stmt. Once selection happens, replace the value in the Z table with sy-datum. This way you can simulate the delta. The Z table can be used for other FM based Datasources also as it has DS as the key.
It would be easy if the exact SAP table where RSA7 delta field status is stored is known. Otherwise, the above method can be used.
Revert for any further queries.

What is data Class ?

Hi.
I need to know what is "data class". I am aplying a hot package in SAP, and it generated a error because el data class USR34 not exists associated with cdhdr table. The note says that I must create it, but I don´t know how I must to do it.
And I don't know if I can associate other data class that exists as USR33.
Thanks for your help.
Maria C.

Hello Maria,
Data class is a technical attribute of a table.
Data class in technical settings
    The data class defines the physical area of the database (for ORACLE the
    TABLESPACE) in which your table is logically stored. If you choose a
    data class correctly, your table will automatically be assigned to the
    correct area when it is created on the database.
    The most important data classes are (other than the system data):
    o   APPL0    Master data
    o   APPL1    Transaction data
    o   APPL2    Organizational and customizing data
    Master data is data which is frequently read, but rarely updated.
    Transaction data is data which is frequently updated. Organizational und
    customizing data is data which is defined when the system is initialized
    and then rarely changed.

Vasanth

Table without technical settings

Hi everyone,
can anyone tell me how to suppress this message ......Message no. E2173....so i shall activate my table which dont have any technical setting...( i know that we can create the table without technical settings and i want solution)..
Thanks
Edited by: priya patil on Jun 30, 2008 10:13 AM

hi priya,
The technical settings of a table define how the table will be handled when it is created in the database, that is whether the table will be buffered and whether changes to data records of the table will be logged.
The most important parameters are:
Data class: The data class defines the physical area of the database (tablespace) in which the table should be created.
Size category: The size category defines the size of the extents created for the table.
When the table is created in the database, the required information about the memory area to be selected and the extent size is determined from the technical settings.
Buffering permission: The buffering permission defines whether the table may be buffered.
Buffering type: If the table may be buffered, you must define a buffering type (full, single-record, generic). The buffering type defines how many table records are loaded into the buffer when a table entry is accessed.
Logging: This parameter defines whether changes to the table entries should be logged. If logging is switched on, each change to a table record is recorded in a log table.
The Convert to transparent table flag ( transparent flag) is also displayed for pooled tables or for tables which were converted into transparent tables earlier on with this flag.
Now,the point is that table can't be maintained in the database without these above mentioned things.That's why answer to yr question is simple that we can't activate an table without techinacl settings.

Delta issue on a Generic Datasource

Hi
   I had a Generic Datasource on a Z table.
   The Z table had a Date field on which Delta is based.The Postings are performed manually.
How to solve the delta issue in the below scenario.
Ex; A user made a manual posting with a date 09AUG2010 today and delta is extracted to BW.
    But tommorow a used made another posting with a date 14JULY2010....
Currently that record is not being extracted....how can i resolve this
Thanks

Hi,
Once the data source is created you will extract the data till that date and as the delta is set it will fetch the newly updated records .But i dont think one can post with the back dates in R/3 side.
If i'm not wrong if you are asking regarding record got missed out them wht need to be done?
Then do the repair full request and pull the missed delta records and it wont effect the delta settings.

How to create a generic datasource from function module?

Dear experts,
I have created a generic datasource from function module. For this extrator, I created a function module and a structure.
I have now some difficulties to continue:
In this function module, i get data from different transparent tables. Then i put these data into an internal table.
I just don't know what is the relatioin between the structure i defined and this internal table.
I should make "iTab structure AA" in the source code?
Thanks

Hi..

Generic Extraction via Function Module
/people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2005/09/29/generic-extraction-via-function-module
1. Create s structure with the fields that you need from the 4 tables . Activate.
2. Goto SE 80 Select The Function Group , Copy , Select the Function module
" RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE " and Give a New name starting With
Y or Z .
3. SE37 ->Your Function module name -> Change , In table tab give your structure
name by deleting the associated type given in " XXXX " .
4. Now select source code and Do the coding . Give Data source name in Coding .
In your case you have to take data from more that 1 table .
5. Activate the Function Group .
6. In RSO2 Create the Data source , Give the Function Module Name , And Save.
7. RSA3 -> Give data source name and Check for the Records .
Creation of custom datasource. (Using function module)
.Create a function group .
. Structure ZTXXXX
Create function module (i.e. ZTESTXXX) .
. Create the data source using transaction (RSO2).
. If structure exists for the table parameter of your function module then ok else create a structure for the table parameter .
Test the datasource in R/3 using transaction RSA3.
Transfer the data source to BW System and replicate it in the BW-System.

Horizontal Bar in the RSA3 is not showing up for Generic Datasource.

Hi There,
Created a Generic Extarctor based on a two tables PAYR and REGUH.
Included 60 fields in the Generic datasource. Everything is fine and when i check the data in extract checker
RSA3, the horizontal bar is not showing up and i could only see 15 fields. I couldn't able to see the rest of the fields.
Can someone suggest what should i do to see all the fields in RSA3? Why Horizontal bar is not showing up?
Out of 60 fields only very few are hidden and it should show atleast 40 fields, but not happening..
Thanks
Vandana

HI There,
Thanks for all your responses.
1 - Tried to change the layout by going into Menu Settings --> Layout ---> Current, but no option to change.
2 - If I check the value of a particular field in the magnifier, then I could able to see all the fields
3 - After executing the RSA3, tried to change to ALV Grid by going into LIST, but again no option available to change.
4 - Checked the RSA2, and to my surprise all the fields are ticked as Key. Is that something why i'm able to see all fields in
     the browser?
5 - But when the check the datasource in RSA6, only 3 were ticked as Key and those three fields i can see before
     extracting the data using extract checker RSA3.
6 - Why all fields are ticked and showing and Key in RSA2 ?
The above is the current status of this issue. Can anyone please suggest how i should go head?
Thanks
Vandana
