Info set and multiprovider

hi friends
i know what is info set and multiprovieder but can any one give me a good senerio for each one . how you have used the info set and multi provider in you project with good example?
thanks in advance .

Hi Sridhar,
Multiproviders help you to do UNION between two infoproviders, while Infosets do INTERSECTION.
Supose that you have two infoproviders with the same (or almost the same) structure and you want to show all in the same report.
InfoProvider A
Material; Quantity
0001; 9.00
0002; 8.50
InfoProvider B
Material; Amount;
0001; 230,000.00
0002; 350,130.00
Now, the union (Multiprovider) of A and B.
Material; Quantity; Amount
0001; 9.00; 00.00
0002; 8.50; 00.00
0001; 0.00; 230,000.00
0002; 0.00; 350,130.00
And the intersection (InfoSet) of A and B.
Material; Quantity; Amount
0001; 9.00; 230,000.00
0002; 8.50; 350,130.00
In this last one, you have to define the key field (or fields) that will make the relationship, in this case is the material number.
In this example, we can get almost the same results with the Multiprovider and the Infoset, if you put the first example (union) in a report by material number, you will get the totals like the second one (intersection), but that is because the simplicity of this example and the fact that fields that are not provided (Amount in A, and Quantity in B) are set to 0. There will be cases in which you'll need to go with one or the other.
Hope it helps.

No it is possible as per SAP.
Please read follwoing help-
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/e3/e60138fede083de10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
It is talking abou the Special Features of InfoCubes in InfoSets.
For queries based on an InfoSet with an InfoCube, the system decides at runtime whether aggregates can be used for the InfoCube. This is the case if all the required InfoObjects of the InfoCube exist in an aggregate. The following InfoObjects are required:
The key figures of the InfoCube selected in the query
The characteristics of the InfoCube selected in the query
The characteristics required for a join with other InfoProviders in the InfoSet.
Furthermore, as a prerequisite for using aggregates, all the data required by an InfoCube must be readable using logical access. For an InfoCube within an InfoSet with InfoCubes, it is no longer possible to read part of the data from one aggregate and part of the data from another aggregate or the InfoCube itself.

Infoset:
An InfoSet is a special view of a dataset, such as logical database, table join, table, and sequential file, and is used by SAP Query as a source data. InfoSets determine the tables or fields in these tables that can be referenced by a report. In most cases, InfoSets are based on logical databases.
SAP Query includes a component for maintaining InfoSets. When you create an InfoSet, a DataSource in an application system is selected.
Navigating in a BW to an InfoSet Query, using one or more ODS objects or InfoObjects.You can also drill-through to BEx queries and InfoSet Queries from a second BW system, that isConnected as a data mart.
The InfoSet Query functions allow you to report using flat data tables (master data reporting).Choose InfoObjects or ODS objects as data sources. These can be connected using joins.You define the data sources in an InfoSet. An InfoSet can contain data from one or more tables that are connected to one another by key fields.The data sources specified in the InfoSet form the basis of the InfoSet Query.

Data in ODS, Info cube ans Multiprovider(List cube) are in Sync.

Hi,
My query is built on multiprovider. The data flow is data source u2013 ODS then ODS u2013 Info cube and multiprovider contains Info cube only.
Data in ODS, Info cube ans Multiprovider(List cube) are in Sync.
The query results are not tie up ODS, Info cube ans Multiprovider(List cube).
Any one let me know why this is happening and how do I resolve it.

All my hard drives (internal and external) have a small lock in the lower left corner of the icon and I don't have permissions to access. Permissions are set to 'Custom' in the get info window and I can't change them.

All my hard drives (internal and external) have a small lock in the lower left corner of the icon and I don't have permissions to access. I have 3 user accounts set up and I cannot access any of them. Permissions are set to 'Custom' in the get info window and I can't change them. Originally I had Snow Leopard installed on one hard drive and 10.5.8 installed on another. I started to have some problems accessing data between them and so I tried changing the permissions on ONE hard drive partition. The next thing I know, all my drives are locked (except the ones with the systems on them), the small lock appeared in the lower left corner of the drive icons and I don't have permissions to access any of them. In the get info window, permissions are set to 'Custom' and I can't change them.

There is suddenly a lock icon on my external backup drive!

Data comparision bt BW and R/3: Extractor using Info Set

Hi,
We have a data source which is created on a R/3 Info Set. When we go to R/3 Info Set, it is using a structure.
Now users are complaining about the data mismatch bt R/3 and BW. I am not sure how to check the R/3 data here.
I went to SQ02, but there it is giving the structure name. I am not sure how to check the data here. Any inputs will be helpful.
Thanks,
Vishnu

Hi
You can test data between BW and R/3.
How many fields being used on infoset? Just check the entries from both tables and check against BW system.

Error when activating the Info set

Hi all,
I have created an Infoset on 2 infocubes, in both of them i am having navigational attributes, but either in infoset backend or front end i am not getting the navigational attributes.
For getting these navigational attributes i added masterdata objects for which i need to get navigational attributes to the infoset and mapped them to the data target objects.
while the infoset is having only cubes the infoset worked fine expect nav attributes.when i added these masterdata objects to the infoset i am getting error while activating the info set.
It does not have any description even to find out the solution.
Please let me know the solution as soon as possible.
thanks in advance,

Hi Sarau,
I think Multiprovider ( Multi Cube ) is the best option than Infoset.......

Difference between InfoSet and Multiprovider

Hello Gurus,
Could someone tell me the difference between an InfoSet and a Multiprovider? And in what occasions we should use these?
Thank you.
DM

Hi David,
1. Infoset and Multi provider physically doesn't have any data.
2. Where they are used?
Ans: they are used for reporting.
3. Why they are used?
Ans: when we want to see a report on a data coming from two or more different tables then we go for infoset or multiprovider.
Example: suppose if there are 2 tables A which contains ( customer id, customer name..etc )
and table B contains ( customer id, material id, material name..etc )
-> if we want a report on cust id , cust name , mat id , mat name in a single report then we go for MULTIPROVIDER ( since multi provider can fetches the data from two fileds )
-> if we want a report on cust id from both tables and cust name from table A then we can go for INFOSET ( since info set fetches the data which is common in both tables and the other data from any table as per req. by using left outer join condition )
So we can go for any in this as per our requirement.
One more thing is that INFOSET can be done on Info Cube and DSO only.
MULTIPROVIDER can be done on data source, PSA , DSO, data target..etc
hope this helps u, and let me know if u need any further info.
Thanks in advance

Diff b/w Infoset and multiprovider BI 7.0 onwards

Hi gurus,
Could somebody tell me the difference b/w Infoset and multiprovider BI 7.0 onwards. I mean earlier we were not able to add cube to an infoset. It allowed us to add only ODS and info object . Since the new version allow us to add cubes too then what is the diff b/w Infoset and multiprovider. Since both of them are full filling the same purpose ?
Thanks in advance.
Ashu Gupta.

Hi,
Follow there links.
An InfoSet describes data sources that are usually defined as joins for ODS objects or InfoObjects (characteristics with master data). A time-dependent join or temporal join is a join that contains an InfoObject that is a time-dependent characteristic.
MultiProvider is a type of InfoProvider that combines data from a number of InfoProviders and makes it available for reporting purposes. The MultiProvider does not itself contain any data. Its data comes entirely from the InfoProviders on which it is based. These InfoProviders are connected to one another by a union operation.
InfoProviders and MultiProviders are the objects or views that are relevant for reporting.
Infoset- Join
Multiprovider-Union

Material Group in the Info Record and PO

We have the scenario of an info record that is "standard" and "sub-contracting". When you display the info record for either category using ME13, it has the value for material group in the general data screen. Technical Assistance tells me this value is found in EINA-MATKL. However, when I do an extract for the info record from EINA, the field is blank.
My two info records (standard and sub-contracting) in EINE were created differently. The standard one was created using ME11 and a plant was entered. Because a plant was entered, the material group value was not required. The sub-contracting info record was automatically created when the PO was created (InfoUpdate button is on). In the PO, the material group was also entered; however, a plant was not added to the info record because we do not have EVO set up to include the plant when the info record is automatically created. (This is something I can change).
This is very confusing when we are looking at these info records and it appears data should be there but it is not. This most noticeably happens with the ones that are getting created automatically and then a different category is created using ME11. Are we are missing some addl requirements in configuration when these records are being created automatically????
Can someone please explain???? I need to come up with a solution to this problem.

If you want to enter diff ordre unit than in the PIR
In this case in the material master purchasing screen you have to activate the var order unit
enter 2 here
now go to your info record and on general data screen you will see the field var ordre unit
here enter 2
than click on conditon from menu
system will popup the order unit screen
here keep cursor on box and click choose
now it will allow you to maintain the box price also
once you do this than it will automatically defult in the Po upon selection.

How to make the price in PO to adopt from info-record and not changeable?

Hi Xperts,
Can somebody explain to me how to set the PO price to be adopted from the info-record and is NOT CHANGEABLE at the creation and change of PO screen. I know that i can configure the field selection for the PO type to be "price as display" only. Any other solution?
Thanks.

Hi!
tick the check box info-update at the item detail under master data tab in a PO.
its significance is as follows:-
Info record update
    Determines whether the prices and conditions of this purchase order item
    are suggested in future PO items.
Use
    Selecting InfoUpdate causes one of the following situations to occur:
        -   If just one info record (with or without plant) exists, it is
            updated.
        -   If no info record exists and "plant condition requirement" was
            specified in Customizing, an info record with plant is created.
            Otherwise, an info record without plant is created.
        -   If two info records exist (that is, one info record with plant
            and one without plant) the info record with plant is updated.
Dependencies
     You can specify that prices and conditions in purchasing info records
     are only allowed at plant level in the Purchasing IMG, under Conditions
     -> Define Condition Control at Plant Level.
Hope this helps you,

Archit.

SAP Query Alias Table in Info-set not working

Hi Guys,
I'm having a bit of trouble with a query I'm writing in SQ01.
I am trying to create a standard margin report between two different costing variants that we use.
n order to do so I have had to employ the use of alias tables.
I have named the alias tables KEKO_2 and KEPH_2 accordingly and joined them in the info set with the same joins as the original tables (Left Outer to MARC on MATNR and WERKS)
However, when I have come to test the query in SQ01 I get a runtime error which states the following:
The following syntax error was found in the program
AQA0MASTER_DATA=STANDARDMARGIN :
"Field "KEPH_2-KST001" is unknown. It is neither in one of the specified
tables nor defined by a "DATA" statement . . . . . . . . . ."
But it is in a specified table! My alias table.
How can I make this query work?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

How to create code for an additional field in an info set

Hello,
I have an info set in tra SQ02 and the area is HCM with version ERP2004.
I need to create an additional field to show "Work permit" in ad hoc queries. I know that the infotype 0016 has a standard field P0016-ARBER which contains a date if that person has a work permit. System should select the latest record or the one which is valid during reporting period.
The requirement for this new field is that it should just has X if the field P0016-ARBER contains a date (i.e. that person has a work permit). If the field P0016-ARBER is empty, then the new field "Work permit" is also empty. So, the date itself is not enough.
I am not an abaper. I have tried to create a code for my field but there is always problems with the code. I have tried without the lineinto but checker says I need to. I have tried different places for statement ENDSELECT but without success. How should I do this?
What I have so far is (TYOLUPA = Work permit) is shown below:
select SINGLE ARBER
into TYOLUPA
from PA0016
where pernr = P0016-pernr
and ENDDA = '31129999'.
clear TYOLUPA.
if ARBER ne ''.
then TYOLUPA = 'X'.
endif.
Thanks for your advice!
Regards,
Pipsa

pia,
In extras tab create column "workpermit" in infoset and add that column to Field groups.
Then under record processing event...
DATA : TYOLUPA like PA0016-ARBER.
Under Record processing event.
select SINGLE ARBER
into TYOLUPA
from PA0016
where pernr = P0016-pernr
and ENDDA = '31129999'.
if TYOLUPA ne ' '.
WORKPERMIT = 'X'.
endif.
Don't forget to reward if useful...
