How to see data in a transaction ODS

Question

Hi all,
I am populating data into my Transactional ODS through the function module RSDRI_ODSO_INSERT_RFC . But not able to see the data in it. as there is no manage option to the ODS. and by default an export datasource is created for the ODS. do i have to create one more standard ods and use this export datasource as update rules and see the data?
Please let me know how to see the data. and also and detail document on Transaction ODS?.

Hello Satish,
Data loaded through Planning Application eg. In Transactional ODS will not have manage option or request. You can view the data using following methods.
Since transactional ODS objects cannot be filled with BW data using staging (data is not supplied from the DataSources), they are not displayed in the Scheduler or in the Monitor. Transactional ODS objects can therefore not be updated in the same way as standard ODS objects.
If you switch a standard ODS object that already has update rules available to a transactional one, the update rules are set as inactive and are no longer processable.
As no change log is generated, no delta update of data stored at the end of the process is possible.
You cannot set the indicator for BEx Reporting when creating a transactional ODS object.
1.) In order to report this, you can create an InfoSet and then execute a BEx query for it.
2) You can also download the data from your transactional ODS object using the download function. You can find this function in the administration of the ODS objects, Tab Page Contents -> Active Data.  Choose Execute to display the data. Using the main menu Edit -> Download, you can download the data in different formats.
Hope it helps.
