Infoset Question

Hi,
I want to create a report to view vendor master data and company code data. I created an Infoset based on 0Vendor, 0GN_Vendor and 0Comp_code. The key in 0GN_Vendor (i.e. 0GN_Vendor itself) is unused though. Is this correct or is there a better way of achieiving this.
The connection is:
0Vendor->0Vendor = 0GN_Vendor->0Vendor
0GN_Vendor->Comp_code = 0Comp_Code->0Comp_code
Thanks

Hi,
Sounds very good. Does that work?
Do you have a doubt or a problem?
Regards

Infoset - Performance and Design Question .

Hello BW Gurus,
I have a question regarding the infoset.
We have a backlog report designed as follows:
sd_c03 - with around 125 chracteristics and kf's - daily load will have around 10 K records at a time.
custome cube - say - zcust01 with around 50 characters and KF's.- daily full load aroun 15 K records.
My question:
1.We have infoset ontop of this 2 cubes for reporting. Can we use infoset for reporting .I used infoset for master data and DSO reporting. Do you guys see any performance issue with using the infoset instead of multiprovider. Is there any alternative instead of reporting from infoset.
2.Also I executed the SAP_INFOCUBE_DESIGNS program for the above cube and some dimesions are more then 25% like 58%, 75%,even 102%. So this has to be fixed for sure. Is it correct.if we don't change the design then what will be the consequences.
Please advise. We are in the development and the objects are not yet moved to production yet.Again thanks for your help in advance.

Hi......
1.We have infoset ontop of this 2 cubes for reporting. Can we use infoset for reporting .I used infoset for master data and DSO reporting. Do you guys see any performance issue with using the infoset instead of multiprovider. Is there any alternative instead of reporting from infoset
Multiproviders are a great tool that can be used freely to "combine" data without adding much overhead to the system. You may need to combine data of different applications (like Plan and Actual). Another good use is from a data modeling point of view...you can enable "partitioning" of the data by using separate cubes for separate years of data. This way the cube are more manageable, and with an InfoProvider on top the data can be combined for reports if reqd (instead of having one huge cube with all the data).
Also using a multiprovider as an 'umbrella' infoprovider, you can easily make changes to underlying InfoProviders with minimum imapct to the queries.
You should go for multi-provider when the requirement is to report on combined data coming from different infoproviders.
Multi-providers combines data using union operation, that means all values of underlying infoproviders are taken into consideration. On ther other hand, Infoset works on the principle of join. Join forms the intersection and only the common data from underlying infoprovider are considerd..............In terms of performance infoset is better since it fetch less number of records.........
Check this .........

If Dimensions are more it effects query performance.........its better to change the design........

Question for InfoSet

I very well know that InfoSet doesn't support conversion. However, would like to know if there is an alternative to it?
Thanks

Does your question is about unit conversion?
You have to write a program (calculate the factor based on T006 table entries)and create a formula variable with replacement path and use that formula variable in the query.

R/3 Infoset join question

I'm not a big SQ02 user, but was hoping someone who has used it more could answer a question posed by one of our analysts. They would like to create an Infoset for some reporting needs where there is a join between VBAK and VEDA. No problem with this since it makes the connection based on the sales document field. However, they only want to bring in rows from VEDA where the item is 000000, not all the individual line items. Is there a way to accomplish this in the join definition (I couldn't see any way to restrict that there)? Or would you have to build in the VEDA item field as a parameter where it can be input as all zeroes?
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks... Jody

after creating the joins in infoset in sq02, goto sq01, create an infoset query, select your infotype from your usergroup.
here, below output button you have a drop down button as 'field group' and 'field catalog', from here make the line number as selection criteria(drag and drop in the right part of screen).
you will have this item in selection screen. pass 000000 here and execute...
i hope task done. any doubt?

Creating InfoSet on ECC for first time: 3 questions

Hi,
I am testing on an ECC IDES system: To create a generic datasource, with extraction from a Infoset Query and came up with a few questions. I user sq02 to create the infoset.
1. What is the difference between SAP Query and InfoSet? Ae they the same?
2. I inserted 2 tables MARA and MBEWH and it created join based on the common primary key of Matnr
How do I choose some of the fields from both tables; I canu2019t drag and drop from left to right frame.
If I need only 2 fields from Mara and 3 from MBEWHu2026 how do I choose them?
3. Once you complete creating the infoset on ECC, how do I see the content of my Infoset? (I need to verify before I use it to create a Datasource)
Thanks

Hi AmandaBaah,

HR Infosets - switch object selection question?

Dear All,
I encounter this issue. I create a HR Infosets using logical database PNPCE. As the requirement of our HR Dept, so we need to add more extras fields (by code).
The problem when we switch on/off object selection (from menu):
- When the object selection is off: all the extras fields I add are available.
- When the object selection is on: all of them are not available.
This is my idea. All the field of infosets will be display when the object selection is on depend on SAP internal field, and the extra field we add by code will not be displayed.
But it's my opinion. So please help me with this issue.
Thanks in advanced.
Thien.

Hi,
We can hide those options by implementing the Layoutsets. If you need to hide those options for standard admin user itself, then you need to change the standard Layoutsets, which is not recommended. These options are defined in the "Command Group" of the Layoutsets.
You can Navigate to Layoutsets thru below path.
Sys Admin -> System Configuration -> Knowledge Management ->Content Management -> User Interface -> Settings -> Layoutset
Tweaking over the Layoutset Command group properties will hide the options which you mentioned.

A question about transport of the change to InfoSet

Hello Expert,
I made a change to the infoSet MMIV03 by Transaction SQ02 and add MKPF-USNAM into the field group INVENTORY MANAGEMENT. Then I clicked Save button, but there is no pop up window to ask me to save into transport. I clicked "Generate" button, and there is no popup window,too. I create a new infoset and the system aslo doesn't ask me to save into transport.
I need to transport the change to testing system, can any expert tell me how to include the change into transport?
Thanks in advance,
Regards, Johnny

Dear John,
try this, when you are in SQ02. Go to SAP Menu "Environment" and then "Transports". Choose "Transport InfoSets" and selects which InfoSets you want to transport. Then Execute with F8.

Peter

Question on Infoset

Hi,
     I have two DSO's with data like eample below
DSO1 Contains
Doc No     Doc Date        Customer No
100001.....01/01/2012.......5000
100002.....01/02/2012........5001
100003.....01/03/2012........5002
DSO2 Contains
Doc No      Item     Doc Date       Customer No Quantity
100001........1........01/01/2012......5000...............1
100001........2........01/01/2012......5000...............2
100002........1........01/02/2012......5001...............10
I want to create the info set so that only the data present in DSO1 that is not present in DSO2 should display like below
InfoSet:
Doc No       Doc date     Custmer No
100003.......01/03/2012......5002
I tried to create with left outer join, but it is displaying all the data present in DSO1. if we have any solution Can you please let me know.
Thanks,
Sneha

Hi Sneha,
Both Multi Provider and Info Set works based on joing condition.
You require data which doesn't have joining(data in DSO1 but not in DSO2). This is not possible with Info Set and Multi Provider.
You need to go for ABAP routine.
Create Info Cube based on this DSO1 and while loading loading data from DSO1 to Info Cube, use the look up tp compare Documnets in DSO2 with DSO1.
If particular documents is not matching with document in DSO2, then it should be upload to Info Cube.

Question on infoset/quickviwer

May I know was it possible to use infoset or quickviwer to extract all the latest sales order, table VBEP, whereby I will filter by the latest schedule line number?
For example :
salesorder pos schedule_line
1120 20 1
1120 20 2
so, i need to get data for the 2nd one based on the highest schedule line no.
Please advise how can i do it using infoset or quickviewer. Mark will award.

Hi
You can't put conditions like what we write in Report in the infoset/query's
If you want you can fetch all the sales order data scheduled lines from VBEP and display it by linking/joining this Infoset with VBAP with VBELN and POSNR fields

Infoset Query Question

I created an Infoset Query showing Quantity, Net Value and Exchange Rate. Is it possible to add a field to add a calculation NetValue*ExchangeRate?
Thanks,
Dipen.

This is how you do this. Goto SQ01. Go to the next screen till you come to FIELDS section. Here in the menu EDIT you will get an option of Short names->switchon/off. Click and enter short name for Net value and Exchange rate.
Then use the option in the menu
Local fields->Create. Enter the name of the local field, description,heading. Select a suitable attribute for the field.Select Complex calculation and click on the button. Here you can put condition if you want to otherwise enter formaula using short names in the Otherwise section. This local field will now start appearing in the fields section. You need to selct this and use it.
Hope this helps.

Question about infoset query with code

Hi experts.
I always appreciate your help. Today, I have some problem. I made infoset query using SQ01 and got some data. Those data include WBS no but some of them didn't. So I tried to put some code into the infoset query that any data has not WBS has some value, for example 'X', in WBS no field.
I needed to know what field or table I should control to display value 'X' in WBS no field in case that WBS field has no value.
I tried to put code at "END-OF-SELECTION(before display)" and control %dtab. But I met error message there is no such table %dtab. So, I define %dtab then during runtime, I also met error message %dtab has already been defiend.
How can I do? Is it impossible thing?? I'm wating for your answer.
regards.

Hi, if you just want to fill the field if it is blank, you can do this in the Record Processing Section.
I'm not familar with the WBS number, so for this example, I will fill the BISMT in MARA during the "Recording Processing" Section.
if mara-bismt is initial.
mara-bismt = 'X'.
endif.

Question regarding adding new field to an infoset.

Hi all!
Actually i am not a programmer but HR functional, but i need to add an additional field to my infoset.
I wanted to do it myself without ABAPers help.
I have already added new field to an infoset and included a code:
TABLES HRP1000.
SELECT SINGLE short INTO ORG_UNIT_SHORT
FROM hrp1000 WHERE objid = p0001-orgeh.
And it almost works. The thing is, when on the report (sap query) a person have value '00000000' in the p0001-orgeh the report enters value into ORG_UNIT_SHORT from the previous record (of another employee).
How to avoid this? i suppose i have to assign this field an initial value at the begining of the code (how?).. or?? as i said i just try to make first steps in abap programming...

Ok, i have found a solution (clear statement)

Infoset Design question

hi
in 1 ods i have data like
date...........order....price$$...region
1/1/10........1001.......100.........east
2/1/10........2001.......100.........east
3/1/10........3001.......100..........west
4/1/10........4001.......100.........east
6/1/10........1001.......100.........east
so user runs query for Quarterly data
so for region East for Quarter 1 the price$$ are 200...
in ods2 i have data like
region.....Price$$....quarter
east........200..........q1
west.......200..........q2
now user want to see data in 1 BW Query as
Region....actual $ ...quarter.....plan$....
east........200.............q1............200$
how do i combine 2 ods data
i thought with INFOSET it will bring me the data as it shows above....
infoset join is on Reqion
but that design is not working
mutliprovider will not work as the structure of 2 ods are a lot different...

Hi,
i do not think infoset is proper for your requirement. Here is what happens with different joins for infoset. Inner or outer you would get wrong data. Each row/record of the actual DSO links up the same record from the plan DSO again and again.
Region....actual $ ...quarter(Act)........quarter(Plan).....plan$....
east........100.............q1...............................q1...............200$
east........100.............q1...............................q1...............200$
You could create another DSO on top of actual, add quarter, remove order, date, etc and maintain same granularity as the plan DSO and create an infoset. That should work.
Or you may try loading both DSOs to a cube and create a report on it.

I need to load an InfoCube from an InfoSet - Is this possible in 2004s?

Greetings,
This question looks long, but it's really not. I'm just trying to give a lot of detail about the screens that I am seeing. Anyway, here goes:
I am in 2004s. I want to load an InfoCube from an InfoSet. I know that an InfoSet is just a view and does not physically store data, but recent documentation published by SAP seems to indicate that this is
possible in 2004s (There is a document called "Developer Guide - 2004s" that says the following:
"InfoSets are an additional, easily manageable data source for generic data extraction. They allow you to use logical databases of all SAP applications, table
joins, and further datasets as data sources for BI". )
So... that led me to believe an InfoSet could load an InfoCube. In other words, the InfoSet would be the source and the InfoCube would be the target. I am in RSA1, and I right-click on the cube that I want to be the target. I select the "Create Transformation" option from the context menu. In the "Create Transformation" screen that pops up, I enter "InfoCube" in the target object type field and the name of the InfoCube in the target name field. I enter "InfoSet" in the source object type field and the name of the InfoSet in the source name field.
I get a pop-up that says "Cannot generate proposal". I click the green arrow, and then I get an error message
that says "Transformation does not exist (see long text)".
When I click on the error message, I get the following information in the Performance Assistant:
"Transformation does not exist (see long text)
Message no. RSTRAN010
Diagnosis
The transformation specified by transformation ID , source and target , does not exist.
System Response
The system terminates processing."
Any help would be much appreciated! It seems like it must be possible to use an InfoSet as a source in a data load, or else it would not be an option in the "Create Transformation" screen. ????
I've also tried right-clicking on the cube and selecting "Create Data Transfer Process". I enter the same information on this screen: the types and names of the source and target. Then I get a pop-up that says "Source and target have not been linked with a transformationDo you want to generate a default transformation?". There are two buttons I can click: one labeled "Yes" and one labeled "Abbrechen". I choose "Yes", because I have no idea what "Abbrechen" means.
Then I get the same pop-up from before: "Cannot generate proposal". I hit the green arrow, and I'm back in the
"Create Data Transfer Process" screen. So... I'm stuck in an infinite loop of screens that I can't get out of.
If someone could help, I would be grateful! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Thank you so much, Ram! I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP!
I am wondering if it possible to manually create a node in RSA6 for the InfoSet. I tried it by doing the following:
I went to RSA6 and clicked on the white icon for "Create Node". I then entered the number "8", followed by the name of the InfoSet. (I entered an "8", because all our DataSources seem to start with an "8". I'm not sure why.)
The DataSource now shows up, but when I double-click on it, nothing happens. When I select it in the hierarchy and then click the icons for "Display" or "Change" or "Check", I just get an error message that says, "You have not selected any DataSources."
Also, do you know where I can get my hands on the white paper?
Thanks again!

Sarah-Jane
