Info spoke /Open Hub

Hi Friends
I need to extract few fields to a  flat file(excel).that file needs to be up loaded to APO DP .
The issue i am facing is data belongs to 3 infocubes. 2 are transactional and one is basic. so i cant use open hub which supports only for 1 cube/ods at a time.
I created a Multi cube on top of the 3 cubes and tried to extract the data using RSCRM_BAPI by creating a report on the multiprovider.
But i am facing issues as
1) Multi provider has TYPE which is not supported.
2 ) one more is my report conatins the STRUCTURE elements. the out put in RSCRM_BAPI is not displaying the structure elements.
please help with some solution to this.
regards
praveen.

Hi Praveen,
If you are on BW 3.5 then You can use APD to write the data you want into a transactional ODS and then create an export datasource on that ODS and use in APO.
You can schedule this at whatever time you want.
However APD is not supported in process chains in 3.5 but it is supported in BI 7.0 I guess.
Bye

  • Open Hub Destination - SAP CRM

    Hi,
    We would like to transfer bulk data from SAP BI (Data Store Object) into SAP CRM. Performance of APD has been very poor. As an alternative, we are checking the feasibility of using InfoSpoke/Open Hub service to transfer data from data store object to ADS (analytical data store i.e. custom table in CRM).
    Has any one tried this before?
    Can we use remote database (i.e. not SAP BI) in open hub destination?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi ,
    Yes I have used Info Spoke/Open Hub service to transfer data from my SAP BI to other Sap system.
    We have a process chain which has start node and 3 parallel node extracting data from 3 different ODS.
    All 3 nodes are connected to a AND node , after then there is a programmer  (Unix script) which has does FTP, Abap program can also be used for this.
    While doing FTP , give destination address CRM system.
    I am sure this will work.

  • BW Open Hub Services...

    Hi All,
    We need to load Master Data in SAP BW to our SAP CRM system. Someone recommended Open Hub Service in BW (using InfoSpokes). I want to know if it is possible to load the data directly in SAP CRM, instead of using a Flat file generated in Open Hub.
    Someone said we can use DB Connect for this, please validate and give me some help links where i can find more info in Open Hub and DB Connect functionality
    Thanks & Regards,

  • InfoSpoke ( OPEN HUB SERVIVE)

    Hi Everybody,
    I would like to use an InfoSpoke to share aCube Information with a CRM System.
    I will try to explain the scenario I would like to achive..
    I want that the CRM system checks every defined time if there is information to move into its system. Once the CRM System has picked up (or collected) the information from BW , CRM has to initiate a process to deleted the Information in the InfoSpoke.
    1)
    It is possible to do that, and how could CRM people to "program" something that do that?  is there something standard (I mean ...that one does not need to write a program..)that do that on the CRM side?
    2)
    It is possible to enhance the InfoSpoke structure on the BW side?? I would like to add a SYSDATE to the structure just to write on each record when it was written (created) on the InfoSpoke...
    I am going to appreciate any idea and comments.
    Regards,
    FedeX

    Hi Fedex,
    1)
    It is possible to do that, and how could CRM people to "program" something that do that? is there something standard (I mean ...that one does not need to write a program..)that do that on the CRM side?
    You can generate files into an application server and every time it will ger overwritten if file name is same. Why you wannt to delete the files...??
    2)
    It is possible to enhance the InfoSpoke structure on the BW side?? I would like to add a SYSDATE to the structure just to write on each record when it was written (created) on the InfoSpoke...
    You can add the new field in BADI by enhancing target structure(adding new field) and populating using ABAP code in BADI.

  • Difference bw open hub destination and info spoke ???

    Hi,
    what are difference b/w open hub destination and info spoke ???
    Thanks In advance.
    Regards
      Nitin

    Hi,
    The open hub destination is the object that allows you to distribute data from a BI system to non-SAP data marts, analytical applications, and other applications. It ensures controlled distribution across multiple systems.
    The open hub destination defines the target to which the data is transferred.
    An InfoSpoke can extract data in two ways:
    1.Full mode (F): the data corresponding to the selection criteria of the InfoSpoke is transferred from the data source into the respective destination.
    2.Delta mode (D): records that were added since the last extraction only are transferred in this mode. This is only possible for the source objects InfoCube and DataStore object.
    See the below Articles:
    InfoSpoke: Part -1

  • What is the difference between Open hub destination and Info spokes

    what is the difference between Open hub destination and Info spokes?
    Please seacrh the forum before posting a thread
    Edited by: Pravender on Aug 16, 2010 11:17 AM

    Hi,
    When a user initiates open hub extraction by creating an InfoSpoke, behind-the-scenes activity involves OO ABAP which is calling classes to determine each of the different components involved in making the open hub extraction possible.  In particular, this enhancement will focus on 2 standard classes: one used to determine file destination name and path and the other to control the user interface of the InfoSpoke which will ultimately allow the user to enter his/her own filename and path.
    The open hub service enables us to distribute data from an SAP BW system into external data marts, analytical applications, and other applications. With this, we can ensure controlled distribution using several systems.
    The central object for the export of data is the InfoSpoke. Using this, we can define the object from which the data comes and into which target it is transferred.

  • Open Hub and Info Spoke

    Hi all,
    We have a bunch of Info Spokes created in our production and we want to delete them based on last used date.
    Can anyone tell me in which table in BW are the Info Spokes stored
    Also like aggregates where we can find out last used is there any tables where we can see when was the Info Spoke last used. I know we can check this at Monitor but when we are talking about hundreds of Info Spokes it can be very tedious to check from monitor
    would really appreciate your answers
    Surya

    Hy surya,
    so far I know, the useability will not be recorded in the database. Eventually you may find some info in the InfoCube for technical content, but your question gives me the feeling, that you have a modelling problem, because normally if you have your infoSpokes in process chains you better track the useability. Further, When having so much InfoSpokes as you told, could be that most queries are similar?
    Anyway, if you use a file as target, you can see the last creation date. I hope you can follow the relation between InfoSpoke and the target.
    Cheers

  • Open Hub does not work after upgrade

    We just upgraded our BW production system from 3.0b into 3.5 and we are running support package level 09. Now we are facing serious problems with Open Hub.
    After upgrade Open Hub delivering data from infocube into
    csv-files does not work. When running the InfoSpoke it
    will deliver 0 data records even though it should bring considerable amount of data.
    There is no error message or short dump, it just do not deliver any data. InfoCube has data in place and it is available for reportoing. Extraction is made in FULL-mode and there is no transformations. Funny thing is that extraction from ODS or InfoObject works perfectly fine.
    Has anyone idea how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance,
    JL

    We ran into the same issue as Jari Laine today.
    We just upgraded our BW sandbox environment from 3.0b into 3.5. We are running support package level 13, though. Now we are facing serious problems with Open Hub.
    After the upgrade, our Open Hub which delivers data from an info cube into CSV-files does not work any more.
    When running the Info Spoke it will deliver 0 data records even though it should bring a considerable amount of data.
    There is no error message or short dump, it just does not deliver any data. The Info Cube has data in place and it is available for reporting.
    The Extraction is made in FULL-mode and there are no transformations.

  • Master text data in Open Hub

    Hi All,
    I am working on BI 7.0 and am currently working on Open Hub. I have to extract data from a cost center infocube, but i also need to send the master text data for certain fields along with the infocube data into the file server.
    Is this possible with open hub services,could someone please provide me with a step by step procedure to this one.
    I have been following a similar thread
    Nav. Attrib in Open Hub 04s
    Please let me know if it was succefully implemented by someone.
    Regards
    Dipali

    Hi Uppala,
    Following are 2 approaches to achieve this
    Approach 1:
    1. Create info spoke which will extract data from cube to data base table (do not use file)
    2. Create one more info spoke which will extract master data text to data base table (again do not use file)
    3. Create join on both the data base tables.
    4. Write a ABAP program which will create a file based on the joins of tables.
    Approach 2 :
    1. Create multiprovider on cube and master data info object
    2. Create info spoke based on the multi provider, that will extract data to flat file
    For 2nd approach u have to put certain filters to avoid unwanted rows

  • Filtering data in Open Hub

    In the info-spoke definition, is there a way to make filter values dynamic in the 'Selection' tab.  For example, we have an info-spoke that we extract data to monthly - by fiscal period.  Since the Production instance is a closed system, we cannot change the filter value directly in Production, but would have to change it in Development and transport it up to Production.  I have read in some SAP documentation that there is a plan to have variables available as selection criteria but it was not mentioned when this would be available.  Thank you for your help.

    Hi Celine,
       Why you want to change the selections.... why cant you use delta...?
       If you want to do selection accourding to ur fiscal year create a BADI and create a variables from system data. and restrict according to ur selection.
       for more info check at www.service.sap.com/bi -> infoindex -> O(Open hub destination).
    I hope this helps.

    Hi,
    You can use the table RSBSPOKET which contains List of all InfoSpokes with the Short & Long Descriptions (only one of these can be maintained). 
    The list of all table related to info spokes are as follows: Might be helpful for future use
    RSBSPOKESELSET  InfoSpoke Directory and Selection Options
    RSBSPOKEVSELSET  InfoSpoke Directory with Selection Options and Versioning 
    RSBSPOKE  List of all InfoSpokes with attributes maintained with transaction RSBO which include the name of
    the Source & Target Structures 
    RSBSPOKET  List of all InfoSpokes with the Short & Long Descriptions (only one of these can be maintained). 
    RSBSTEPIDMESS  Contains all the messages that have been recorded during the execution of an InfoSpoke. This table can
    be added to using the ABAP Class/Method i_r_log->add_sy_message.
    Hope this helps.
