Information on 0CS_ITEM: Item info object

Hi All,
I am trying to build one infocube, in one of the dimensions, i have used characterstic 0CS_ITEM(which is used in cube: 0BCS_C10). When I use this info object to build a dimension, 0BCS_INITEM and 0CS_CHART are automatically adding. I also observed that 0CS_CHART is a compounding object for the other 2 objects.
-can you please explain, why 0CS_CHART, and 0BCS_INITEM objects are adding automatically?
-If i remove these added characterstics, will there be any problem in the infocube design?
Many Thanks,
Sunitha.

In continuation Headsup...
Functionally 0GL_ACCOUNT(General Ledger) in BI world is same as 0CS_ITEM(Item) in the BCS world.
similarly 0CHRT_ACCTS(Chart of Accounts) in BI world is same as 0CS_CHART(Consolidation Chart of Accounts) in the BCS World
Main Highlight/Difference or the rationale behind having though the different object
is that in BCS you can post documents at NODE level of 0CS_ITEM(Text Nodes to be technical) whereas in BI you cannot post Documents at NODE(Text) levels,in BI you have to post documents at Object level(0GL_ACCOUNT level) itself.
Also the company code(0COMP_CODE) in the BI world is same as 0COMPANY ,since in BCS we have the ELIMINATION companies fundamentals we make use of 0COMPANY ;however in BI world we call that elimination company as infoobject Trading Partner(0PCOMPANY)
You will see this when you build your Consolidation Basis that the mapping done is
0CS_ITEM to OGL_ACCOUNT
0COMPANY to 0COMP_CODE
and so on ....
Note - In the FERC(Federal Energy Regulatory Commission) module 0GL_ACCOUNT is called natural account and FERC account is called as REGULATORY account.
Hope it Helps

  • Removing the compounding info objects

    Hi Experts,
    I am having  a problem with large master data tables in the production system. There are 2 custom info objects ZPCA_Doc and ZPCA_item for PCA document number & item number. ZPCA_DOC is compounded with doc_typ and ZPCA_Item is compounded with ZPCA_DOC info obejcts. The number of entries in the two info objects ZPCA_DOC and ZPCA_Item is growing everyday. The number of entries in the ZPCA_Item is nearing 20 million records. I think this is due to the compounding of the info objects. As this was developed few years back I am not sure why the compounding was done.
    I need advice on:
    Is it a good practice to compound the document number & document item info Objects?
    Is it possible to remove the compounded info object on these info objects without deleting the infocube data?
    Is there any other way to control the number of entries in these info objects?
    Thanks in advance,
    Shilpa

    Hi,
    It depends on requirements of queries. But, without compounding, if you have doc no and item no seperately in transactional data, then you will be able to report data as you wish.
    My opinion is, if you have both of them in the infocube, then you can remove compounding. However, removing compounding object will require deletion of master data. you have to be careful

  • Line item type Info Object ????????/

    Hi friends
       just for clarification is there any 0 Info Object available for Line Item Type field (i.e,  LINETYPE (char 5) in FAGLFLEXA Table)....or do I need to create a custom object...
    Thanks

    Hi,
    No need to waste much time here. If you are not able to find any relevent IO in Buisness content also , then create a new z-info object.

  • Upgrade to SCM7.0 DP info objects (Characteristics) long/short text issue

    Hi All,
    We have upgraded from SCM4x to SCM7.0. The info objects characteristics customized long and short text is not updated in SCM 7.0.
    Example: Info object 9ALOCNO standard long/short text is APO location. But in SCM4x they have changed to Plant. After upgrade this text is set to APO location, not the plant. Like this many chars text have been changed to SAP standard.
    When I try to change text of info object creates transport request.
    Is this standard behavour when we upgrade?
    Please share your thoughts and let me know for more information.
    Thanks,
    Sreeni

    Sreeni,
    With every upgrade the customization is lost. We will have to make a list of all customized objects and make the change again in the upgraded system.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Issue with Info Object Transport after changing Data Type

    Hi Experts,
    We have a DSO which is running past 5 years. And recently(3 days back) we added new fields into that DSO. Delta loaded for last three days and new info object (Say XXX) data populated into DSO.
    Now the problem is, We identified that, info object data type is not correct. We used data type NUMC  instead of CHAR.So Character information is missing for that field.
    Example:
    Data from ECC: ABC123
    Data Loaded to DSO: 123 (Missed character ABC)
    So we deleted data from DSO and changed the info object data type in Development system.
    And also I have deleted only last three days delta records from DSO and transported my info object to Production. But its giving error as: Info object contains data in DSO".
    But that info object field is empty in DSO. I have already deleted last three days delta.
    Do I need to Delete all 5 years data from DSO to change the data type of recently added new info object ?
    Please give me your solutions and ideas to solve this issue.
    Thank you,
    Best Regards,
    Santhosh

    Hi Raman,
    Thank you for your answer.
    When I changed the data type of info object in Dev, I deleted the content of DSO. And same thing transported to QA as well. Before importing changed info object, I just deleted the content of DSO from QA. So transport done successfully QA.
    But in Production we have a history of past 5 years. So I cant delete all contents of DSO.
    So just deleted only the delta request's which contains data for that info object(3 days back, we moved that info object(NUMC data type) to production,So last 3 days delta only loaded for that info object). And tried to transport it. But it was failed. I am sure we need to drop all data from DSO, if I am interested to go with same info object.
    I have some comments on your first approach,
    1. If we delete info objects from Dev DSO and transport to Production will give transport failure, Why because, my previous transports errors clearly saying that info object contains data in DSO . So it wont allow to remove that info object from DSO.
    2.We are using same info object technical name in BO Data federator also. So if we change add new info objects again we need to make changes with BO as well. I am thinking this point as my last option if i cant find any other solution.
    Thank you.
    Best Regards.

  • How to know corresponding info object for R/3 field and viceversa

    Hi....
    How to know corresponding object for a filed in r/3 data source and viceversa..While defining transformations.
    We can't do mapping of all objects to fields with the definition......!!!
    In 'rsosfieldmap'' what information we should give to know the proper tranformation...?
    thank u.....

    Hi,
    There are two ways to know the corresponding info objects in R/3 fields:
    1)  goto se11 t-code, enter RSOSFIELDMAP and enter display button. in the next screen click contents and give the field name or info object name as per your requirement, and excute.
    2)  first go through the field description in r/3 and identify the similar description in BI. For your easy understanding use excel sheet , in that you can copy the data source fields and target info objects ( master data or transaction data ). then it will be easy to identify the similar description.
    Thank you.

  • Infocubes and info objects

    Hi guys,
            i'm new to BI. can any one differentiate between Infocubes and info objects..
    please be a bit specific.....

    Hi,
    An InfoCube describes (from an analysis point of view) a self-contained dataset, for example, for a business-orientated area. You analyze this dataset in a BEx query.
    An InfoCube is a set of relational tables arranged according to the star schema: A large fact table in the middle surrounded by several dimension tables.
    Use
    InfoCubes are filled with data from one or more InfoSources or other InfoProviders. They are available as InfoProviders for analysis and reporting purposes.
    Structure
    The data is stored physically in an InfoCube. It consists of a number of InfoObjects that are filled with data from staging. It has the structure of a star schema.
    The real-time characteristic can be assigned to an InfoCube. Real-time InfoCubes are used differently to standard InfoCubes.
    ODS versus Info-cubes in a typical project scenario
    ODS
    why we use ods?
    why is psa  & ods nessasary
    InfoObject: Basic building block of BW.. ( Its like a field )
    Definition
    Business evaluation objects are known in BI as InfoObjects. They are divide into characteristics (for example, customers), key figures (for example, revenue), units (for example, currency, amount unit), time characteristics (for example, fiscal year) and technical characteristics (for example, request number).
    Use
    InfoObjects are the smallest units of BI. Using InfoObjects, information is mapped in a structured form. This is required for constructing InfoProviders.
    InfoObjects with attributes or texts can  themselves also be InfoProviders (if in a query).

  • Publisher name in Item info for PDF is not displayed

    Hi All,
    Publisher name in Item info for PDF is not displayed (shows; unkown publisher) in Adobe Digital Editions. The Adobe Acrobat Professional does not have "Publisher" field to add Publisher name; it facilitates user to provide "Title", "Author", "Subject" and "Keywords" into the Document Properties (Ctrl+D)
    Some one please guide, to get Publisher name in "item info" for PDF in Adobe Digital Editions.
    Cheers
    Vikas

    For PDF the Publisher name comes only from the encryption information that is included when a PDF file is packaged for use by Adobe Content Server.  If this information was not included at packaging time there is no end user method for adding it in after the fact.

  • Mechanism for Info Object Data elements inherit source documentation?

    Say I am in ECC. I go to SE11, give table name MARA and then doubleclick on the dataelement 'MATNR'. Then I click on documentation. I get a popup with Short text " Material Number" and Definition "Alphanumeric key uniquely identifying the material'.
    I am interested in the latter information that is 'Definition' - &  in general whatever documentation comes up for data element in ECC/CRM/SCM/SRM.
    Now I log into SAP BI. I find that under characteristic 0Material, the data element is /BI0/oimaterial. When I double-click this datamaterial and press the documentation button, the system says 'No documentation'.
    My Questions:
      1. IS there a switch we could turn on in source [ECC/SRM/CRm/SRM] so that the data element in SAP BI inherits the original source field data element documentation.
    { I am not too convinced of the argument- that in BI we have info objects in ECC we have fields - since I am talking of data element level information- I would tend to think of this as an oversight of the designers [or de-prioritization] !!}.
    2. Could we have an ABAP workaround? That is, in BI we identify the tables that house the mapping between the source and destination data elementsa and take out this information. Then we extract the dataelement documentation [by function DOCU_GET] and use the mapping info above to link SAP BI data element with source data element documentation.
    WHY do I want to punish myself as above? My use case is, we take out SAP BI Table, field, metadata etc and create a model in a modeling tool and physical implementation in a 3rd party DW database as our own canonical, application-agnostic corporate datawarehouse. I would want the source data element documentation to flow to this last system as well as the modeling tool.

  • To switch on the Navigational attribute feature in the info object

    Hi there,
    I have a sceanario where I created an info-object to extract the KNKK table information.
    I am using the datasource 0fi_ar_9 to do flexible update to this info-object.
    The issue is that: I am adding the required infoobects as attributes to this infoobject.
    I want to switch on these attributes as  navigational attributes.
    But to some of them I am getting the option to switch it on as Nav and not all. Like 0C_CTR_AREA has got the icon Navigational attr on/off. Also 0CRED_GROUP has got this icon across it.
    But objects like
    0LST_INT_RV -Last Internal Review
    0LST_REVIEW -Last Review (external)
    0REPR_GROUP -Credit management representatives group
    0NXT_REVIEW-Next Review
    do not have the Navigational attribute on/off icon across them.  So I am unable to change them to Nav.
    Any advise why is the behaviour different for different objects ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind Regards,
    Kate

    Hi There,
    Many thanks for the answer.
    It really solved my doubt about this.
    This means that I need to create customised info objects
    to add them as navigational attributes.
    Just wanted to know what is the advantage of creating infoobjects as reference charateristics of standard infoobjects.
    Thanks once again.

  • Show Item Info gives wrong numbers

    On my iMac 20" Core Duo with OS 10.4.6, the hard drive data shown in the Finder with the Show Item Info option selected is incorrect. For example, the internal drive shows 232.57 GB with 47 GB free. Activity Monitor or Get Info both show the correct amount of 162.38 GB free. Same thing happens with external drives. Graphics show the correct dimensions, though. On my iBook with OS 10.3, the item info is shown correctly.
    Apple suggested reinstalling the system, but this seems like overkill for such a minor problem.
    I was just wondering if anyone else is seeing this?

    I have noticed this problem on my iBook and eMac for the free space available on my iDisk and Hard Disks, but here is an easy workaround.
    Go to the force quit item in the apple menu. Select the finder and relaunch. When the finder refreshes, the information will be accurate.
