How to make a field under Selection column in DataSource from dimmed to ...

We try to make an InfoObject shows up in Data Selection of an InfoPackage to restrict the data load based on the range of this InfoObject.  In order to do this, we will have to go to the source system to run RSA6 to edit the datasource to make this field checked under the Selection column.  However when we get to the screen, find this field's Selection column is dimmed.  Is there anyway to make it from dimmed to editable that it can be checked?
Thanks

hi Kevin,
try to check table ROOSFIELD, fill OLTPSOURCE with your datasource name and OBJVERS 'A', what's the value for SELECTION ? you may change the value with 'X'.
use abap code :
UPDATE ROOSFIELD SET   SELECTION = 'X'
               WHERE OLTPSOURCE   = 'datasource name'   AND OBJVERS = 'A'.
can i know your datasource name (if it's business content) ?
Properties of a DataSource Field
If a request for a DataSource is scheduled in the Business Information Warehouse, selection conditions are specified across certain fields. The property that determines whether a selection in BW using a field
is possible or required is established in the DataSource in the Source System.
In addition, the visibility of the field in BW can be set.
A field that is not visible (or that is hidden) cannot be transferred into the transfer structure.
Definition of the individual values:
'A': Field is hidden in OLTP and BW, property cannot be changed  the customer.
'M': The DataSource requires a selection across this field before it is able to extract data (Required field for the generation of a request); property cannot be changed by the customer
'X': The Data Source can select across this field. The customer can change selections and visibility (the field is currently visible and selectable, compare with 'P', '3')
'1': Pure selection field for the DataSource. The customer can change the selection, but not the visibility (the field is currently selectable , compare with '2').
'2': Pure selection field for the DataSource. The customer can change the selection, but not the visibility (field is currently no selectable, compare with '1').
'3': The DataSource can select across this field. The customer can change selection and visibility (the field is currently not visible not selectable, compare with 'P', 'X')
'4': The DataSource cannot select across this field. The customer can change visibility (the field is currently not visible, compare with ' ')

  • How to make slicer to remember selected values while moving from report to another

    I have Power View on SharePoint 2013 and OLAP Cube on SQL Server 2014 solution.
    1) I select slicer values and graphs are updated
    2) I move to next page on same Power View file and use slicers.
    3) I come back to original reports. My slicer valuers are empty.
    Is it possible to make slicer to remember selected values while browsing from reports to another?
    Ken
    Kenny_I

    Hi Kenny_I,
    This seems to a by design issue. The selected values within a slicer will be stored in Memory. When we go to another report, the memory will be released.

  • How to get a Field for Selection in 8 Datasource

    Hello All,
    We have a scenario where in we need to change the Generated Export Datasource (8Z******) and check one more field for Selection, so that it appears in the Data Selection tab in InfoPackage.
    But I am not able to do that. I tried to change the transfer Structure for the same but to no luck. I also tried to change the Data Source in RSA6, but even that dint helped.
    In Ideal cases it should have taken all the Characteristic fields as Selection when the Export DS is generated, but for this particular case it took only 6 fields by default. I need to have one more field.
    Can anyone help me with this..??
    NOTE: We are working on 2004s.
    Regards
    Rohit Rakhan

    Hi,
    for Export DataSources, you can only use selections for Full-Update mode, when using the 3.x functionalities.
    But in 2004s, you can assign selections in your DTP.
    So the you'll export via export DataSource into the PSA and then perform selections via DTP onto the PSA-Data.

  • How to make warehouse field inactive for all users in all documents autom.

    Hi All,
    Can anyone pls tell me "**how to make warehouse field inactive for all users in all documents without having to do it through form setting** "for each and every user. It should be visible but inactive
    Thanks & Regards,
    Mukesh Agrawal

    Hi,
    As a work around create a warehouse SelectWH and map the mandatory acoounts as a On hold account(in chart of accounts).So there will not be any posting on this account.
    And set this warehouse as default warehouse for all users.
    So without selecting the appropriate warehouse the user can not add the document.
    I think this might resolve you issue.

  • How to make a field mandatory in billing

    How to make a field mandatory in billing document,if m right with the help of incomplition log but how.....
         plz reply the full configuration.

    Hi Mohan,
    We normally create a billing document with reference any other document say Order or delivery.
    so, all the necessary information in the invoice will be taken from preceeding doucments. Thats way in the order level we check for incompletion log. If any important data is missing in the order level then the succeding documents will not be created.
    Thats way in the billing documents all the necessary information will come automatically either from preceeding documents or from master data.
    Still you want to make any field mandatory, you can do these by modifieing Billing documents user exists,you can make which ever the fields are mandatory and to be checked before saving. so when you are going to save the invoice, it will check if these fields are maintained or not.
    Hope this is clear.
    Reward if helpful.
    Thanks,
