How to maintain master data with 3 different IS components

Dear Gurus
We have got 5 companies and we are implementing SAP with 3 IS components.
1) We are implementing IS-EC&O (DIMP).
2) Implementing IS-DBM (Dealership Business Management system)
3) We have IS-Real Estate.
The companies will have shared services such as HR, group Procurement and Finance, This functionality will reside on a main ECC 6.0 system.
Can someone explain:
1- How and where would master records reside?
2- How are the various databases will communicate?
3- Can all the 4 above systems share a single database?
Thanks in advance
Regards

The companies will have shared services such as HR, group Procurement and Finance, This functionality will reside on a main ECC 6.0 system.
Can someone explain:
1- How and where would master records reside?
On the master ERP 6.0? on an MDM server? there are various possibilities.
2- How are the various databases will communicate?
The databases won´t communicated but the systems on top.
3- Can all the 4 above systems share a single database?
They can share the same database software using MCOD (http://service.sap.com/mcod) - with all pros and cons but you will need to have the same master data in all instances though.

  • How to load master data with text into infoObject in BI 7.0

    Hi all;
    I have an infoobject 0employee ( this is for employee number ,8 character long), with medium text option.
    I would like to load Employee name as a text option for employee number.
    How do I load this mater data into this 0employee object,
    Please help.
    I did look for something similar in the forum and there are many of them, but I couldn't find anything that for BI 7.0 and really clear help for me. Sorry to ask a question that been asked before.
    thanks.

    hi rainnie,
    check this link t oload master data in BI 7
    Re: BI 7.0 flat File extraction
    as you are using SAP defined infoobject you can start from the creation of datasource.
    text format for the flat file is
    LANGUAGE,INFOOBJECT,TEXT
    EN,0EMPLOYEE,RAINNIE
    You have to create ,infopakage, transformation ,dtp for both the attribute and text.
    hope this helps
    cheers

  • How to maintain master data attribute of 0WS_QUEST & 0WS_QSTNNR SRM Web Sur

    Hello All,
    We are implementing BI reporting based on SRM Adhoc analysis.
    Info-object 0WS_QUEST & 0WS_QSTNNR has both Master data & Text.
    I could only find the Text data source in system for 0WS_QUEST (0WS_QUEST_TEXT) & for 0WS_QSTNNR (0WS_QSTNNR_TEXT).
    Is the Master data for 0WS_QUEST & 0WS_QSTNNR  is maintained via ETL ? If so, what data source need to be used ?
    Or Master data for 0WS_QUEST & 0WS_QSTNNR is maintained with in BW via some special transaction ? If so, what is the T Code to be used ?
    For Example - Like for 0SR_VE_GID1 - Master data maintenace via T Code - SRM_VE_GROUPING & Text via ETL (Data source 0SRM_VEGRID_TEXT)
    Appretiate your input.
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Regards,
    Viresh

    Dear All,
    The text flow for 0WS_QUEST & 0WS_QSTNNR is sufficient to make available Criteria from source system questionnaire in BW.
    After the text load (even it does not generate SID) we can already use Tcode SRM_VE_GROUPING & SRM_VE_WEIGHTING for customization of groupping and weighting in BW.

  • How to maintain Master Data through Web Application Designer layout.

    Hi.
    I’m Internship and I have to do something that it doesn’t work.
    I explain to you.
    I have to make a layout via Web Application Designer to permit users to add a line in the master data XST_RFC.
    For that, I did two things:
    First I followed this url : http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/607193d5-cdd5-2b10-c699-8ff04c3124f6?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true&38392712686871
    The result; I have a problem with the appendix of method execute “DATA : ZL_WORKTEXT Type ZFREETEXT”. Here, SAP doen’t permit me to put XST_RFC (my characteristic to add by the user) but just /BIC/PXST_RFC… So, I tried with that and at the moment of the test in the Wad, the application say me “no Master Data in XST_RFC”. I know that there are no MD in my char, I just want to add once…
    So it doesn’t Work.
    Secondly, after testing, the Function Module test works. When a put an ID in the test page of SAP Logon in parameters, the FM put this ID and create a new line with this new ID. So I had an idea, use directly this function module in a Fox Formula but, when a call my function, I have a problem with variable/parameters type.
    My variable is TYPE XST_RFC , but my parameters is TYPE  /BIC/PXST_RFC….
    My Fox Formula
    DATA NEW_RFC TYPE XST_RFC.
    NEW_RFC = VARV(XVOU_RFC).
    CALL FUNCTION ZBWDSST_XX_MASTERDATAMAINTAIN
    EXPORTING
    VAR_RFC = NEW_RFC.
    My error message Types of parameter VAR_RFC () and variable NEW_RFC(C) are inconsistent
    If you can help me, I work on this issue for 4 days and I waste my time.
    Thanks.

  • How to export/import data with different nls_lang???

    hello
    now i try to run my forms by APPLICATION SERVER to view the forms as web forms i success but data appear unreadable that it is arabic and i use the nls WE8ISO8859P1 so i change the nls to arabic like AR8MSWIN1256 but i faild so i create new database with charset UTF8 and nls_lang is AR8MSWIN1256 and try to insert new data when i do query about data ......the new data appear readable but the old unreadable so what can i do???
    i think that if i do export data and import it with new (charset and nls_lang) it will be success....but how can i do it??
    thank u
    regards

    Hi did you already exported data from SQL SERVER? if not using SQL*LOADER you cannot export data. SQL*LOADER is only mean for importing data from flat files(usually text files) into ORACLE tables.
    for importing data into oracle tables using sql*loader use below steps
    1) create a sql*loader control file.
    it looks like as follows
    LOAD DATA
    INFILE 'sample.dat'
    BADFILE 'sample.bad'
    DISCARDFILE 'sample.dsc'
    APPEND
    INTO TABLE emp
    TRAILING NULLCOLS
    or for sample script of control file search google.
    2) at command prompt issue following
    $ sqlldr test/test
    enter control file=<give control file name which you create earlier>
    debug any errors (if occured)

  • How to maintain master data when new depreciation engine is activated?

    Dear Experts,
    We have 4.7 to be upgraded to ECC6.0 and new depreciation engine will be activated.
    For the changes of dep. keys, do we have to create a new master for each asset or is it possible to maintain the current masters by changing depreciation keys in master?
    I appreciate your prompt reply!
    Best regards,
    S MK

    Hi,
    Thank you for the prompt replies!
    I forgot to add that according to the law changes, we have to change depreciation keys.
    So we are going to use new depreciation engine with changed depreciation keys.
    Is it still possible to keep current masters without creating new ones?
    Best regards,

  • How to modify master data with BPS

    Hi experts,
    Our customer would like have the posibility to enable/disable the materials they are using for planning.
    Disabled materials should not be available for planning.
    To do that we are thinking in adding another characteristic into the cube as a flag to determinate which material is enable or disable, and later use that infoobject to filter the planning layout.
    We wonder how can we change the values for a characteristic using BPS. Is that possible? So far, we are only able to modify keyfigures.
    Thanks in advance,
    Pablo

    To disable a material from getting planned, proceed as follows:
    1. Have material in the area and also in level and package.
    2. Create a data slice on material and set the material that you wish not to be planned by the planners and save the model.
    This configuration will meet your requirements.

  • How to change funcionality "Maintain Master Data" to RSA1 instead WebDympro (BW 7.4)

    Hello Gurus,
    Someone could help me?
    In SAP BW 7.4 (Support Package 7) the BW master data maintain function moved from SAP GUI into web dynpro screen.
    Can we use it (maintain master data) in SAP GUI RSA1 like SAP BW 7.3?
    Is it a configuration in SPRO?
    Thank you guys.
    PS: It is my first project with SAP BW 7.4

    Hi Gareth,
    I have made the code changes as suggested by you but there is some kind of inconsistency.
    After maintaining master data ,If I go back one step it works fine
    But if I type /nRSA1 or any other tcode on the same screen,it gives a dump.
    Below is the dump.
    Short Text
        The current application has triggered a termination with a short dump.
    What happened?
        The current application program has detected a situation that should
        not occur. A termination with short dump has therefore been triggered
        by the key word MESSAGE (type X).
    What can you do?
        Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
        To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
        administrator.
        Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
        at and manage termination messages, and you can also
        keep them for a long time.
    Error analysis
        Short text of the error message:
        ControlFrameWork: Maximum number of sessions reached
        Long text of the error message:
        Technical information about the message:
        Message class....... CNDP
        Number.............. 011
        Variable 1..........
        Variable 2..........
        Variable 3..........
        Variable 4.......... " "
    How to correct the error
        Probably the only way to eliminate the error is to correct the program.
        If the error occurs in a non-modfied SAP program, you might be able to
        find a solution in the SAP Notes system. If you have access to the SAP
    Notes system, check there first using the following keywords:
    "MESSAGE_TYPE_X"
    "SAPLOLEA" bzw. LOLEAU02
    "AC_SYSTEM_FLUSH"
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself, please send the following
    information to SAP:
    1. This description of the problem (short dump)
    To do this, choose  System -> List -> Save -> Local File (unconverted)
    on the screen you are in now.
    2. A suitable system log
    To do this, call the system log in transaction SM21. Restrict the time
    interval to ten minutes before the short dump and five minutes after
    it. In the display, choose System -> List -> Save -> Local File
    (unconverted).
    3. If these are programs of your own, or modified SAP programs: Source
    code of these programs
    To do this, choose  More Utilities -> Upload/Download -> Download in
    the Editor.
    4. Details regarding the conditions under which the error occurred or
    which actions and input caused the error.

  • How to read data with different XML schemas within the single connection?

    I have Oracle 11g database
    I access it through jdbc:oracle:thin, version 11.2.0.3, same as xdb.
    I have several tables, each has one XMLType column, all schema-based.
    There are three different XML schemata registered in the DB
    I may need to read the XML data from several tables.
    If all the XMLTypes have the same XML schema ,there is no problem,
    If the schemata are different, the second read throws BindXMLException.
    If I reset the connection between the reads of the XMLType column with different schemata, it works.
    The question is: how can I configure the driver, or the connection to be able to read the data with different XML schemata without resetting the connection (which is expensive).
    The code to get the XMLType data is textbook implementation:
    1   ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery( sql ) ;
    2   String result = null ;
    3    while(resultSet.next()) {
    4   SQLXML sqlxml = resultSet.getSQLXML(1) ;
    5   result = sqlxml.getString() ;
    6   sqlxml.free();
    7   }
    8   resultSet.close();
    9    return result ;

    It turns out, that I needed to serialize the XML on the server and read it as Blob. Like this:
    1    final Statement statement = connection.createStatement() ;
    2    final String sql = String.format("select xmlserialize(content xml_content_column as blob encoding 'UTF-8') from %s where key='%s'", table, key ) ;
    3   ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery( sql ) ;
    4   String result = null ;
    5    while(resultSet.next()) {
    6   Blob blob = resultSet.getBlob( 1 );
    7   InputStream inputStream = blob.getBinaryStream();
    8   result = new Scanner( inputStream ).useDelimiter( "\\A" ).next();
    9   inputStream.close();
    10   blob.free();
    11   }
    12   resultSet.close();
    13   statement.close();
    14
    15   System.out.println( result );
    16    return result ;
    17
    Then it works. Still, can't get it work with XMLType in resultset.On the client unwrapping XML blows up when trying to switch to different XML schema. JDBC/XDB problem?

  • Incorrect result between maintain master data and bex query, how can i fix?

    Hi ALL,
    i get some messages from the users there is incorrect result between SAP R/3 and Report on BW. i controlled the monitor and i saw there was a job for 0CUSTOMER_ATTRIBUTE that it finish correctly but the processing it was only in PSA, i started the full update immediately from PSA into Data Targets and is finished correctly. after when i control the content of the 0CUSTOMER (right click maintain master data) i get the correct attribute result that match the data in SAP R/3, but the problem is when i execute a query Bex on this master data it will not return the same attributes data.
    Can SomeBody Help please
    Bilal

    hi,
    For any master data attributes loaded you will have to run "Attributes Change Run" for that.Execute for Master data 0CUSTOMER.
    The same is avilable in rsa1->Tools(top menu)->apply hierarchy/attribute run.
    hope it helps,
    regards,
    Parth.

  • Bank detials Maintained in Vendor master data with out Sort code / Bank Key

    Hi
    We have a Requirement of creating Japanese bank details in Vendor Master Record. But No Bank key / sort code is available.
    Even for Russian Bank accounts we donu2019t have any bank key / sort code available from client.
    System does not allow to create vendor bank details with out providing Sort code/ Bank key details.
    Is there is any way of creating bank details in Vendor master data with out giving Bank key details.
    Regards,
    Karunakar.

    Hi,
    I assume you fill in Sort Code in bank number field.
    In my company, our bank number is set not to duplicate bank key.
    So bank key is simply a reference.  And our bank number field is not mandatory.
    If you follow these settings, you can create an abitrary bank key for your vendor bank account.

  • How to design Master datas?? Whats is Time Scenarios???Explain..

    How to design Master datas?? Whats is Time Scenarios???
    Can anybody explain about Time Scenarios???

    Hi..
    to tell it is huge ..
    but a slice of it 
    Design          – Create design documents
    Prod.          – Make the product
    Quality          – Confirm quality of product
    Sales          - Market the product
    Purchase                    – Procure the items
    Accounts                       To control the cost of Mfg
    These steps should be understood as a general approach. To what extent they must be carried out depends
    on the actual situation and the experience of the project members involved.
    After deciding on the business process being dealt with, the basic steps to implementing a BI based solution
    are:
    1. Focus on the structure of information
    Develop a complete understanding of the underlying business processes. Create an Entity Relationship
    Model (ERM) of the business process
    The ERM as a function of the information
    2. Focus on analytical needs - Overcome model complexity
    Create a valid data model. Translate the ERM to the Multi-Dimensional Model (MDM) / Star schema
    The MDM as a function of the analytical processing
    3. Build the solution as a part of an integrated data warehouse
    The Star schema on the BI stage are the InfoCubes. Translate the MDM / Star schema to one or more
    InfoCube.
    coming to time ..
    How real-world changes are dealt with, i.e. how the different time aspects are handled is the most
    important topic with data warehouses.
    The attributes of a characteristic that will reside in its master data table are determined in the modeling
    phase. Each attribute can be defined individually as being time dependent:
    There is one ‘time dependent’ check box for each attribute in the ‘attribute’ tab page section.
    Time dependency of an attribute allows you to keep track on the changes over time of the relation of the
    characteristic and the time dependent attribute values.
    In terms of technical implementation, two master data tables exist if we have both non-time dependent
    and time dependent attributes.
    One master data table stores all relations to non-time dependent attributes (name of the table:
    /BIC/P<InfoObject name>) and
    One table stores relations to time dependent attributes (name of the table: /BIC/Q<InfoObject
    name>).
    The time dependent attributes master data table has additional DATETO and DATEFROM system
    attributes. In queries the different constellations are addressed using the key date ( Query properties).
    The validity attributes are not available for navigation.
    The text table, or better the description attributes, may be defined as time dependent.
    SID tables with respect to master data:
    The SID table is always generated if an InfoObject is not defined as ‘attribute only’ (tab page general).
    This table is used if the access to an Infocube or DataStore Object uses a navigational attribute or if the
    access is via a characteristic without attributes. Name of the table: /BIC/S<InfoObject name>
    The non-time dependent attribute SID table of a characteristic for access via non-time dependent
    attributes. Name of the table: /BIC/X<InfoObject name>
    The time dependent attribute SID table of a characteristic for access via time dependent attributes.
    Name of the table: /BIC/Y<InfoObject name>

  • How to load master data and hierarchies from R/3 systems

    HI all,
    how to load master data and hierarchies from R/3 systems.
    Please explain the steps.
    Thanks,
    cheta.

    HI,
    Its normally done following: Transferring the master datasources in RSA5 to RSA6 and then replicating the DS into BW and assignment of DS to Infosource and cretaion of Infopackage and load it into the master tables.
    Generally, the control parameters for data transfer from a source system are maintained in extractor
    customizing. In extractor customizing, you can access the corresponding source system in the source
    system tree of the SAP BW Administrator Workbench by using the context menu.
    To display or change the settings for data transfer at source system level, choose Business
    Information Warehouse &#8594; General Settings &#8594; Maintaining Control Parameters for Data Transfer.
    Note: The values for the data transfer are not hard limitations. It depends on the DataSource if these
    limits can be followed.
    In the SAP BW Scheduler, you can determine the control parameters for data transfer for individual
    DataSources. You can determine the size of the data packet, the number of parallel processes for
    data transfer and the frequency with which the status IDocs are sent, for every possible update
    method for a DataSource.
    To do so, choose Scheduler &#8594; DataSource &#8594; Default Settings for Data transfer.
    In this way you can, for example, update transaction data in larger data packets in the PSA. If you
    want to update master data in dialog mode, smaller packets ensure faster processing.
    Hope this info helps.
    Thanks,Ramoji.

    Hi
    Go through the below process to extract Master Data Attribute from R/3
    Hi,
    Maintaining Generic DataSources
    Use
    Regardless of the application, you can create and maintain generic DataSources for transaction data, master data attributes or texts from any transparent table, database view or SAP Query InfoSet, or using a function module. This allows you to extract data generically.
    Procedure
    Creating Generic DataSources
    1. Select the DataSource type and specify a technical name.
    2. Choose Create.
    The screen for creating a generic DataSource appears.
    3. Choose the application component to which you want to assign the DataSource.
    4. Enter the descriptive texts. You can choose any text.
    5. Select the datasets from which you want to fill the generic DataSource.
    a. Choose Extraction from View if you want to extract data from a transparent table or a database view. Enter the name of the table or the database view.
    After you generate the DataSource, you have a DataSource with an extraction structure that corresponds to the database view or transparent table.
    For more information about creating and maintaining database views and tables, see the ABAP Dictionary Documentation.
    b. Choose Extraction from Query if you want to use a SAP Query InfoSet as the data source. Select the required InfoSet from the InfoSet catalog.
    Notes on Extraction Using SAP Query
    After you generate the DataSource, you have a DataSource with an extraction structure that corresponds to the InfoSet.
    For more information about maintaining the InfoSet, see the System Administration documentation.
    c. Choose Extraction Using FM if you want to extract data using a function module. Enter the function module and extraction structure.
    The data must be transferred by the function module in an interface table E_T_DATA.
    Interface Description and Extraction Process
    For information about the function library, see the ABAP Workbench: Tools documentation.
    d. With texts you also have the option of extracting from fixed values for domains.
    6. Maintain the settings for delta transfer, as required.
    7. Choose Save.
    When performing extraction, note SAP Query: Assigning to a User Group.
    Note when extracting from a transparent table or view:
    If the extraction structure contains a key figure field that references a unit of measure or a currency unit field, this unit field has to be included in the same extraction structure as the key figure field.
    A screen appears on which you can edit the fields of the extraction structure.
    8. Edit the DataSource:
    &#9675; Selection
    When you schedule a data request in the BI scheduler, you can enter the selection criteria for the data transfer. For example, you can determine that data requests are only to apply to data from the previous month.
    If you set the Selection indicator for a field within the extraction structure, the data for this field is transferred in correspondence with the selection criteria in the scheduler.
    &#9675; Hide field
    You set this indicator to exclude an extraction structure field from the data transfer. The field is no longer available in BI when you set the transfer rules or generate the transfer structure.
    &#9675; Inversion
    Reverse postings are possible for customer-defined key figures. Therefore inversion is only active for certain transaction data DataSources. These include DataSources that have a field that is marked as an inversion field, for example, the update mode field in DataSource 0FI_AP_3. If this field has a value, the data records are interpreted as reverse records in BI.
    If you want to carry out a reverse posting for a customer-defined field (key figure), set the Inversion indicator. The value of the key figure is transferred to BI in inverted form (multiplied by –1).
    &#9675; Field only known in exit
    You can enhance data by extending the extraction structure for a DataSource by adding fields in append structures.
    The Field Only Known in Exit indicator is set for the fields of an append structure; by default these fields are not passed to the extractor from the field list and selection table.
    Deselect the Field Only Known in Exit indicator to enable the Service API to pass on the append structure field to the extractor together with the fields of the delivered extract structures in the field list and in the selection table.
    9. Choose DataSource ® Generate.
    The DataSource is saved in the source system.
    Maintaining Generic DataSources
    &#9679; Change DataSource
    To change a generic DataSource, in the initial screen of DataSource maintenance, enter the name of the DataSource and choose Change.
    You can change the assignment of a DataSource to an application component or change the texts of a DataSource. Double-click on the name of the table, view, InfoSet or extraction structure to get to the appropriate maintenance screen. Here you make the changes to add new fields. You can also completely swap transparent tables and database views, though this is not possible with InfoSets. Return to DataSource maintenance and choose Create. The screen for editing a DataSource appears. To save the DataSource in the SAP source system, choose DataSource ® Generate.
    If you want to test extraction in the source system independently of a BI system, choose DataSource ® Test Extraction.
    &#9679; Delta DataSource
    On the Change Generic DataSource screen, you can delete any DataSources that are no longer relevant. If you are extracting data from an InfoSet, delete the corresponding query. If you want to delete a DataSource, make sure it is not connected to a BI system.
