Hierarchy - Change Node

Hi everybody!
One big problem. I created a hierarchy and created a structure manually. I added some infoobjects but one infoobject has only a Key but no medium description in German but in English the field is filled. I try to change the description via right mouse click -> change node but I can't change anything. How can I change the med. description?
Regards, Thomas

Hi,
In the info object under the Master Data/Text there is a flag for 'texts language dependent. You can remove it from there.
Also in the transfer rules/transformation for the text you can put a constant of DE against the 0LANGU object.
Cheers,
Kedar

Account dimension hierarchy text nodes ACCTYPE property

Hello,
We have master data being populated into BPC from BW. So for the Account dimension in BPC, we use the 0GL_ACCOUNT infoobject in BW. This infoobject also has all the Financial statement version hierarchies which are being loaded to BPC. The question that I have is, how should the hierarchy text node values for ACCTYPE property be populated if I have to automate this load on a daily basis.
For the actual GL accounts, we have the account number ranges defined. Like 1* series accounts are Assets etc..So we can easily define a rule for populating the ACCTYPE property values. But not sure if there is any easy logic for populating the hierarchy text nodes as we dont have any pattern in them. Would we need to maintain it manually always?
Thanks
Gaurav

Hello Richard,
If there is really no logic behind them there is off course no way of automating this. Then I guess you will have to maintain each node separately.
Some customers are also willing to change their text node structure. For example I had one when where the rules for the 0HIER_NODE records were as follows:
*           EXP -> Starts with 32*, 311*, 312*, 321*, 3111*, 3112*,
*                  3142*, 31111*, 31112*, 311111*
*           INC -> Starts with TOT, 3000000000, 3100000000, 313*,
*                  322*, 3113*, 3141*, 31113*, 311112*
*           AST -> Starts with 1*
*           LEQ -> Starts with 2*
Kind regards,

Problem with hierarchy change run in aggregates

Hi,
I have made changes in Cost center hierarchy (infact I have included 2 cost centers in a seperate node). After it I loaded hierarchy into BW through Process chain. Process chain uses Attribute/hierarchy change run process. Consequently Cost center hierarchy is loaded into BW successfully.
In Cost center master data, hierarchy table, i can see two new records for these added costcenters in Active status. It means hierarchy change has worked properly.
I have also read that hierarchy change run automatically reflects the changes in Aggregates, that are using Cost center info objects.
But my problem is I did not find new added cost centers in any aggregate using cost center info object. Though it should be taken care by Attribute/hierarchy change run.
Please suggest, if I make any change in source system hierarchy, then how and when it will impact aggregates ? How can I test that hierarchy change has impacted aggregates ?
Thanks and Regards
Saurabh

Hi Fede
Did you manage to solve your problem?
I have a similar situation where the technical ID of the hierarchy is set as default value for the hierarchy variable in the variable input screen.
I have noticed that if I un-check the option "Suppress 'Unassigned' Node" in the Hierarchy Attributes Settings in RSH1, then the default value is gone, but I would like to have it checked in order not to display the unassigned nodes for the end users.
Any help or comments on what you have done to overcome this problem would be jhighly appriciated.
Thanks.
Regards
Peter

Hierarchy changes...

Hi guys,
we got information from our business user that there are changes in hierarchy of clothing brands.
In our BI,our master data is maintained in excelsheets.we maintain there and then RUN macro which generates csv files that will be uploaded into BI.
Now I got little doubts about how to make these hierarchy changes make available in PROD...
1.Do we maintain the data in excelsheets,then generate files(using macros) which will then be uploaded into BI or do we do changes in SAP BI hierarchy itself...the changes are more like addition of new nodes and change of child node from one parent node to the other parent node....
2.what care do we need to take when our work is regarding changes in existing hierarchies in BI?
Thanks alot.
P Olin.

In a previous project we used the same method - we had an excel macro which would generate the files and then we would load it into BW....
Precautions :
If you have multiple hierarchies against the same infoobject - make sure you do not load different hierarchies ... for example if you have a sales and product hisrerchies for material - make sure you do not load Product hierarchy file to sales hierarchy - since this is an external hierarchy - the files will get loaded and your reports will start showing funny values...

How to import hierarchy text node from BW infoobject

I tried to import hierarchy from BW InfoObject through process chain /CPMB/IMPORT_IOBJ_HIER.
But BPC complains the hierarchy text node haven't been dimension member.
As result, I have to export the hierarchy text node to a flat file and import again which is not convenient.
Does anyone have some best practice for this?
Thank you.

Hi,
You can follow the steps mentioned in the below How-to-Guide of sdn. This explains the steps to be implemeted to inport hierarchies.

How to get the Change node in Production Server!!!!!

Hi Guys,
Kindly let me know how to get the Change node in Production Server for the Transaction Code Pe03 for generating the Acknowledgement No for the year 2008 .
Plz provide me the steps how to get the Change Node for Acknowledgement No so tat i can get the configuration done.
Regards
Ansuman Mohanty.

Hi Mr!
If you want to generate the e-file feature 40ACK, do it in our Customization client box (Golden box) & save the request & move to Quality & production.
Still if you need to workout only in Production, than with the help of Basis people you can get the Production change mode for 5 to 10 min time & can generate it. But mostly Basis people wont give us change mode for Production box ... with ur request they can do..try it.
Did u collected 4 quarter TAN no's for 2008 Quarter...if not collect it & generate it at a time.
All the best:-)

Type2 scd hierarchy change

I am using OWB10.2. I want to find out the correct way to implement type 2 SCD with hierarchy change. Say I have an employee dimension with two levels: employee (employee id, emp_name) and deparment (depart_id and dept_name). The employee_id and depart_id are business attributes. I define a hierarchy with employee at the lowest level. If an employee changes a department, I want to preserve the employee department history, so I add two timestamp to the employee level.
OWB document says that SCD can only be defined on level attributes. Therefore, I can remove the hierarchy and define only one level with employee_id and departement_id as business attributes or I can preserve the hierarchy and add a business attribute redundant_depart_id to the employee level.
Both of these options are not attactive. What is the best way?
By the way, the depart_name is faked constant, because I am only interested in the depart_id in the department level. If I remove the depart_name attribute and the department level only have business attribute. I can pass validation on the dimension creation, but I can never pass the mapping valildation. So to fool OWB, I added a constant to depart_name column. It is bad, but I don't know what to do.
Thanks

Hi Boris,
to understand how PR_CONTACT_WID is populated on the W_REVN_F, you must use Informatica (PowerCenter Designer) and view the backward link path.
You could see that PR_CONTACT_WID is search in the Lookup LKP_W_PARTY_PER_D_With_Geo_Wid (mapplet mplt_SIL_RevenueFact) :
- table W_PARTY_PER_D
- Query : SELECT
LOOKUP_TABLE.ROW_WID as ROW_WID,
LOOKUP_TABLE.GEO_WID as GEO_WID,
LOOKUP_TABLE.INTEGRATION_ID as INTEGRATION_ID,
LOOKUP_TABLE.DATASOURCE_NUM_ID as DATASOURCE_NUM_ID,
LOOKUP_TABLE.EFFECTIVE_FROM_DT as EFFECTIVE_FROM_DT,
LOOKUP_TABLE.EFFECTIVE_TO_DT as EFFECTIVE_TO_DT
FROM
W_PARTY_PER_D LOOKUP_TABLE, W_REVN_FS
WHERE W_REVN_FS.PR_CONTACT_ID = LOOKUP_TABLE.INTEGRATION_ID
AND W_REVN_FS.DATASOURCE_NUM_ID = LOOKUP_TABLE.DATASOURCE_NUM_ID
ORDER BY
LOOKUP_TABLE.DATASOURCE_NUM_ID,
LOOKUP_TABLE.INTEGRATION_ID,
LOOKUP_TABLE.EFFECTIVE_FROM_DT,
+LOOKUP_TABLE.EFFECTIVE_TO_DT --+
- Condition : EFFECTIVE_FROM_DT <= IN_DATE AND EFFECTIVE_TO_DT > IN_DATE
So your value for PR_CONTACT_WID is dependent of the value of IN_DATE ( --> IIF(ISNULL(CLOSE_DT), EXCH_DT, CLOSE_DT)).
You must verify for one record where you think there is an issue the CLOSE_DT and EXCH_DT on the table W_REVN_F (CLOSE_DT and U_RVN_EXCH_DT)
Hope it helps,
Benoît

Attribute /hierarchy change run

Hi,
I have to run the Attribute/Hierarchy change run for only one infoobject. When I click on "Infoobject list", the list is empty even though some changes were made in the hierarchy. How can I get the infoobject list?
Thanks.

Hi.......
The easiest method is ........use the Program : RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN.........there give the infoobject name.........Then in the top Program tab >> Execute in background...........then u can monitor the Job in SM37........the job name will be RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN..........
But logically if changes has done to the Master data......Transaction RSA1 --> Tools --> Apply Hierarchy/Attribute Change... --> InfoObject List & Hierarchy List ............this List should contain the list of infoobjects.............if nothing is there..............it means no changes has been done.............and there is nothing to be activated............So also check whether the changes hav been done properly or not.....................then use this program............it should be done........

Debjani......

Hierarchy change run

Hi Gurus
I came to know about Hierarchy change attribute change run. I was told that I need to load the Hierarchy and then go to RSA1>>>Tools>>>Apply Hierarchy attribute change
so would you pl tell me what is this for? Also when I click on Hierarchy list after going into attribute chnage run, there is no Hierarchy available so pl tell me how can I populate the hierarchy for which I need to do this attribute run or will it take all Hierarchy by default?

Hi Krishna,
You just need to execute this. You can make a selection for InfoObject names (if more than one are mentioned here) but you cannot manually add another InfoObject here. The system knows if changes have been made and need to be activated.
Hope thid helps...

How to make Attribute Change run alignment & Hierarchy changes in Aggregat

Hello
I want to understand that How to make Attribute Change run alignment & Hierarchy changes in Aggregate?
I posted previously the same question but there were not good answers and i was not able to understand clearly .....
If there is Process chain XXY which makes Attribute change run for Master Data 0SPELLING ?
Now there is Aggregate TRT which includes :
0SPELLING , Fiscal Period , Purchase Product, Purchase Category ?
Now pls answer following question ?
1) Does the Process Chain XXY which makes only attribute change run alignment for 0SPELLING , Will this process chain automatically do the Change run alignment for 0SPELLING in Aggregate TRT ? YES or NO
2) If Yes, then we are just suppose to do Roll up for Aggregate TRT after Process chian XXY completes and finish job ?
3) If No, then what steps are suppose to be DONE so as to make sure that Aggregate TRT has new values and perfect values for 0SPELLING ?
Please answer and coorect if i have any wrong question....

for e.g.
u have 0spelling whicha has attributes x,y and z on day 1 with 10 records
so do ur aggregates on day1 with same values
now on day2 u had new values of attributes y,z,s,d and new hierarchies and so u add new records
with data load u will load the data with version M of modified and is not available for reporting
If u do attribute change run then this modified version is activated to A i.e. active version .
It will also do the change run alignment for Aggregate for new attribute values and new hierarchy values for aggregate.
now in order for this data to be available for reporting u will need to do the roll up of aggregate.....
if u roll up aggregate before attribute change run , new data is not avaialable for reporting
if u roll up aggregate after attribute change run, then data is available for reporting
if u dont roll up aggregate eventhough new data is in dataprovider, still new data will not be available for reporting.
this is how it works

Tracking Hierarchy Changes

Hi,
May I know whether is there something like a change log/ report to track what is the changes done to a hierarchy in BW?
If not, what should I do if I need to know how has a BW hierarchy changed?
Thanks.

Hi Fang,
Most of the times the hierarchy data is overwritten unless version is maintained for hierarchy. You could find out the dates if you look at the logs in the Apply hierarchy/attribute change screen and find the hierarchy info-object.
Bye

SAP BI - Hierarchy Characteristic Node key not displaying Web Analyzer

I am using 0COMP_CODE as a characteristic node in my 0COSTCENTER hierarchy. Using BEx analyzer works fine, but in Web Analyzer the 0COMP_CODE key shows as a "#" in a query display regardless what I set the characteristic or hierarchy node to display.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If S0001 is a subtree node of A0003, then change the 'type of authorization' to 1 (subtree below node) for A0003 in your analysis authorization. Currently in your case, I guess its 0- selected node only (default type).
Thanks
