Hello!
the related characteristics should be kept together in one dimension so that combination of these characteristic values should remain mininmum possible in dimension table
this increses the performance
you should never keep irrelevant characterstics in one dimension which will create huge entries in dimension table
eg: you can keep 0MATERIAL, 0MAT_PLANT, 0MATL_TYPE, ZPRD_HIER in one dimension

    Customer ID pulled in and also for "TYPE", I want a value of "CUSTOMER".  When I maintainthe Dimension, I want to see
    th followingvalues:
    ID                          EVDESCRIPTION                                   PARENTH1                         TYPE
    0000000001         WALMART                                            CUSTOMER                        CUSTOMER

    How can assign a Fixed value to the member Propert?  Can I achieve it in Conversion file....? 
    ( My atempts failed...).
    Any suggestion recommendation would be gretaly appreciated.
    Munna.

    Hi,
    For adding fixed values to the properties, you can use the transformation file. In the mapping section, you can specify a constant value. This value will be written to properties of all the members while importing master data. However, for parenth, its a bit different. First thing is that, you need to have a member called CUSTOMER, then only you can have CUSTOMER in the parenth column. Even if you add it and use the mapping section for this purpose, then it will write CUSTOMER to parenth for all the members (even to CUSTOMER member). And this will be wrong. So, you will need to write it manually.
    Hope you got the idea.

  • How to assign more system memory in PE 10?

    PE10 has crashed a number of times and will not allow use of Ken Burns.  Searches retrieved information on how to assign more system memory in previous versions of PE, but the methodology explained could not be used for PE10 as the relevant actions could not be located.
    What worked in a previous version of PE:
    > Edit > Preferences > General
    In addition, the guidance suggested 1.5 should be enough but if the recommended amount for PE10 should be different (particularly for Ken Burns), advice would be most welcome.

    Hello Shabbir
    1) First create 'PLANNING hierarchy' using T code MC61. Specify the custom infostructure and do not enter any characteristics in the next scree. In  the next screen enter the pan data level by level for all characteristics.
    2) Now get into MC93 to create planning. Enter your custom infostructure in the opening screen for 'Planning Type'. Enter the characteristics as needed and click enter. Enter the plan data in the next screen and save the version.
    3) Now use MCSI with your custom infostructure and when the standard Analysis: Basic list is displayed, go via menu option Edit/Comparisons/Planned/Actual to see the comparison.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to assign Tab Set manually

    Hi,
    I created form on table with report. My report page does not show tab set , Can someone advice how to assign Tab Set manually to a page .
    I tried editing report page and adding tabs from shared component section but looks likes that is not the right place because it allows to add item to tab set and not tab set to page .
    Thanks in advance
    Aalishan

    Hi Aalishan,
    On your page, click on the "Edit Page Attributes" icon in the top-right of the Page section. On there, check what the setting for "Standard Tab Set" is - it should be pointing to the tab set you want to use.
    You can also check, through Shared Components, Tabs, that the tab itself shows the page number for your report page in the "Tab page" setting

  • How to assign numbers in external number range?

    Dear experts,
    Since NUMBER_GET_NEXT can only be used to assign numbers in internal number range, how to assign numbers in external number range?
    So far, I only know the NUMBER_CHECK function module to deal with external number ranges and it only check a number whether it lies in any external number range or not, but it doesn't update any number range status. What I need is a function module like NUMBER_GET_NEXT that supports external number range.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Haris
    Edited by: harissahlan on Oct 19, 2011 5:44 AM

    With external number range, there is no updating of the number range objectt. The only thing you need to know is whether the number you wish to assign is allowed according to the external number range. And also check if there isn't already an object/document with the same number in the database.

  • How to assign a task to Reuestor in OIM 11g

    How to assign a task to a requestor (who has raised a request for other user).
    I created a Task assignment adapter and mapped variable in Process definition as
    Map To: Request Info
    Qualifier: Requester User Login
    Still it returns null and default task is assigning to System adminstrator. I am pasting the Task Assignment code here. User key value coming as Null.
    Do you have any idea what is the exact mapping required in Process definition.?? Pls note: I am using OIM version 11.1.1.5.0
    public class TaskAssignmentToUserAdapter {
         Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("COM.IDM.PROV.COMMON.ADAPTERS");
         public String getTargetType(String targetType){
              return targetType;
         public String assignTaskToUser(String userKey,tcDataProvider dataProvider ){
              System.out.println("The user key value:" +userKey);
              return userKey;
         }

    Not sure what sample code I can give you, but you need to do a query in your adapter like:
    select REQUEST_KEY from OIU where ORC_KEY='?'
    Here ORC_KEY should be mapped to the process instance key.
    Once you have the Request key, you can use RequestServcie APIs to get the requester information. http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14571_01/apirefs.1111/e17334/oracle/iam/request/api/RequestService.html#getBasicRequestData_java_lang_String_
    Or if you don't care then get the requester key from the request table. Thus you can have the final query as:
    select USR_LOGIN from USR where USR_KEY=(select REQUESTER_KEY from REQUEST where REQUEST_KEY = (select REQUEST_KEY from OIU where ORC_KEY='?'))

  • How to assign an order to a GL account

    Hi all,
    Can anybody please let me know how to assign an order to the GL account?
    Thanks,
    S.Sumana.

    Hi,
    There is no such an assignment. When you post a document, you define your G/L accounts and cost objects. If you want to make a default internal order for certain cost element, you can go to KA02 or OKB9 and define the defaults there.

  • How to assigne multiple value in key of read table

    Hi gurus,
    I want read table xxxx with key field1 = ' xxx' or field1 = 'yyy'.
    how to assign multiple value as key for the same field while reading internal table.
    Regards
    sagar

    Hi ,
    You can loop the internal table like
    loop at  <table xxxx> where field1 = ' xxx' or field1 = 'yyy'
    or you can write two read statements to read the internal table in wrk area.
    read table   <table xxxx> with key field1 = ' xxx'.
    if sy-subrc <>0
    read table   <table xxxx> with key field1 = 'yyy'.
    if sy-subrc = 0
    endif.
    else.
    do your data processing.
    endif.
