Infosource changes

Hi Gurus
I made some changes in info source in BW DEV with some infoobjects. unfortunately those fields are not there in data source . So removed those changes from info source.
now when I have activated it again the routines written in original info source were deleted. so I wrote them again and deleted all the transport request generated for that infosource.
So whenevr I will transport the infosource now , will it give me some problem? I deleted all the transport request as the modification were not correct and i didn't want to transport them.
if i change some object and the request is generated then again i modify the object another transport request is poping up so can I delete the previous one or it will be overlapped?

Eric/Sidhartha
My problem is I made changes to infosource and deleted the changes .as I deleted the changes I have also deleted the request which was carrying those changes.
so now the infosource is in its original state( As I have included the required routines etc which were deleted).
So if i will make any change in the infosource tomorrow , then will it work fine? I am just worried about the transport I deleted . will it make some difference when i will transport the infosource again?

Cannot connect Datasource to Infosource (Change protected)

Hi,
I have a custom defined Infosource (with custom defined Info Objects) currently in class $tmp.
I want to connect a (previously) custom created datasource to it (which is tranported from another BW 3.5 system). Then it gives me the error:
RSAR 771 Objects can only be displayed (change protected).
The datasource is still not connected to any other Infosource.
Any idea what is happening here?
And (2) How to loose the 'Change protection'?
Best regards,
JJ
(Netherlands)

Hi Jos,
Hope some changes have happened on that data source, so please save and activate once again... after that do post processing of the data source...
Then Replicate the data source at BW system side and try to connect assign your custom define info source to that data source.

How do I upload a network hierarhcy into SAP BW?

I am trying to import a large network hierarchy with "link nodes" into SAP BW.
I'm new to SAP, and BW 7.0 is all I know. However, apparently, you can't use the new 7.0 concepts and methods to import hierarchies. You must use older 3.5 methods, including a 3.5 InfoSource.
I found some instructions at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/fa/e92637c2cbf357e10000009b38f936/frameset.htm
Which documents how do import hierarchies using 3.5 mechanisms in version 7.0.
Unfortunately, I am unable to follow these steps. I create the 3.5 InfoSource, and the docs say:
"Choose InfoSource Tree ® Your Application Component ® Your InfoSource ® Assign Source System."
However, I see no option to "Assign Source System" anywhere. Also, when I create the 3.5 InfoSource, I see the target InfoObject show up in the InfoSources tree, but I don't see a InfoSource object show up in the InfoSources tree. I'm not sure what to do.

Completely revised post.

Krzys,
Thank you so much. I was trying to use a DB Connect Source System. I created a new flat file Source System and with that, I make it past step 4.
On step 5, I get asked about three different data sources. I choose "no" to the attributes and text data sources (those are import through BW 7.0 mechanisms) and "yes" to the hierarchy data source.
On Step 6, I am on the InfoSource change screen and I try to activate. I don't know what all the settings on the InfoSource mean. When I click activate, I get this error:
"InfoObj. 0GN_IOBJNM from fld IOBJNM of dataSource CSTOB_CBO_HIER is not active but BCT ex. -> Dtl Message no. RSAOLTP236"
I attempt to follow this help text and do: "RSA1" -> "Goto" -> "BI Content"
From there I see a panel, "InfoProviders by InfoAreas". There is a large tree underneath. I do a "find" for 0GN_OBJNM but nothing comes back. I don't know how to proceed.
I also do a Google for 0GN_OBJNM. I found the Best Practices Article BS1 which mentions activating the 0GN_OBJNM object. I try to follow step 3.3.2, however at step 2.c, I get a running stopwatch cursor that lasts for several hours. I assume it's hung. CPU+Disc on SAP server are idle.
Swapna,
I tried to follow the PDF file that you linked. However, I can't do transaction SE38 since I can't get a developer code. The following steps seem similar to Krzys's suggestion where I'm getting the issues above.

Error while uploading flat file

Hello
My flat file(.csv) has 3 columns.But when i am uploading and when i check Master data, it just shows me the first column.Why is it so?
When i maintain Master data, do i have to maintan attr, text and hierarchies?In mapping and transfer rules?What should I map, Attr or text or hierarchies or all the 3?
Thanks

Hi,
Let me make some guesses about your situation.
You use an IS with Direct Update for text master data upload. In this case in Master Data maintenance you'll see the IO's code and its attributes. To see IO's texts you need to click on a 'Text' icon, with a pencil or glasses.
For direct update of master data you need to create an IS with direct update (the last radio button in the 'Create Infosource' screen).
Then right click on an IS - Assign Datasource, choose flat file source system, confirm all system 'Save changes' proposals.
In Infosource change screen press 'Activate'.
Number of datasources for a master data will depend on the settings for the IO. If this IO has master data, texts and hierarchies, then you'll have 3 DSs.
In the 'Datasource' field of the screen you can see what is this DS for. Click on this field and choose another DS. Press 'Activate'. Do it the 3rd time if you have 3 DSs.
Then during an infopackage creation you'll be able to choose an option (Master data attributes, texts, hierarchies) and upload the appropriate data.
Best regards,
Eugene

Error in Simulating load from PSA to InfoObjects

Hello ALL,
in my Transfer Rules i have mapped 5 R/3 fileds (120 char) to my 5 infoobjects (60 char)
i have loading correctly in PSA a long text with "ALL TYPE OF CHARACTERS"
i'm doing a simulate registration from the monitor to load these data in my bw InfoObjects
my infoobjects have this characteristics:
- only attribute , flagged to accept Lower Case, conversion routine ALPHA, no master data, no text
the objective is to load this long text into the sid table and show it in query like attribute of my master data: 0NOTIFICATN.
the simulation return error like this:
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_02 contains the value non conforming to alpha 0723789
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_02 contains the value non conforming to alpha 9
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_02 contains the value non conforming to alpha 0
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_02 contains the value non conforming to alpha 240
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_02 contains the value non conforming to alpha 2
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_02 contains the value non conforming to alpha 85
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_02 contains the value non conforming to alpha 50
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_03 contains the value non conforming to alpha 320165
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_03 contains the value non conforming to alpha 0
. the infoobject /BIC/ZTESTO_03 contains the value non conforming to alpha 00
i don't understand why i receive only errors messages linked to ZTESTO_02 and ZTESTO_03!!!
i have 5 identical infoobjects ZTESTO_01, ZTESTO_02, ZTESTO_03, ZTESTO_04, ZTESTO_05
in the PSA you have to consider i have all type of characters: Lower Case, Upper Case, number, *, . #
blank......
Can anybody help me please to resolve this problem
thanks a lot
Bilal

Hello Pankaj,
i tried to fix this problem in Infopackage by Handling error ==> registering records without control, green light, it's a Long Text Description and i don't need to control any character in detail.
but i have another problem in InfoSource: when i mapp 1 R/3 120 char to 2 Infoobjects 60 char,
at the right side in Transfer Rules i find my R/3 field linked only with the first infoobjects
for example:
my infoobjects are ZTESTO_01 , ZTESTO_02
R/3 field: ZZTDLINE
i mapp:
ZZTDLINE ==> ZTESTO_01
ZZTDLINE ==> ZTESTO_02
at the right side i find: ZZTDLINE:ZTESTO_01
at the left side i find:
infoobject "ZTESTO_01" rule "ZTESTO_01"
infoobject "ZTESTO_02" rule "ZTESTO_01"
for my second infoobject i tried to write a routine to specify:
RESULT = ZZTDLINE+60(60).
i have values only in my first infoobject: ZTESTO_01, no values for my second ZTESTO_02
it seem that the system don't consider my routine
i tried another test without routine and waiting to get the same 60 char for ZTESTO_01 and ZTESTO_02
but nothing, it seem that the system consider only the association at the right side in transfer rules
ZZTDLINE:ZTESTO_01
for that in my start routine, at the declaration of transfer structur i don't see any reference for my:
ZTESTO_02 infoobject
do you think that is some PATCH PROBLEM, we have a new 7.0 installation with no patches.
i will bypass this problem monday asking the Abap Developer to divid the long text only in 60 char R/3 fields, and in infosource i can mapp 1:1 , 10 R/3 fields to 10 bw infoobjects and in the query
i can choose how many attributes i need to view for my long text.
if you have some further idea to test in Infosource (change mapping, routine) i will do that
thanks a lot for your help

Error while trying to Change an Infosource

I get the following error while trying to change an Infosource. I am not able to get to the change screen and it displays the following message 'Infoobject MPVPOPR not available in the Active Version'.
I did the following to try and debug the issue...but with no luck..
1) I checked for the Infoobject MPVPOPR and did not find it anywhere (Metadata, Transport Connection, Infobjects)
2) I am able to load the data using an infopackage into the ODS.
3) Communication structure and all is Active...
I just cannot get to the Change Screen for this Infosource and it displays the error 'Inobject MPVPOPR not available in the Active Version'.
Please provide any Suggestions
Thanks and Regards
Andy

Andy,
For the confirmation whether your infosource contains MPVPOPR or not.
Just goto RSA1 > InfoObjects > search MPVPOPR > double click on found > there is an option "Where used" , just click and check whether your infoobject is present in the infosource or not.
And let me know for the solution.
Thanks
Ramu

Change source system in Infosource

Hi
I am working on BI7. I have one isse. For an infosource source system has been assigned to client 100. I would like to change it to 200. Pl let me know how to make this change.

Hi
I didn't get your question,how a infosource is assigned to source system,your data source will be assigned to source system and your infosource and data sourece will be assigned to each other..
delete the datasource from source system 100 and create a data source in 200 and assign it to your infosource(i am considering both 100 and 200 source systems are assigned linked to your BW system via RFC(SM59))..
Hope it helps
Thanks

Change comm struct in InfoSource

Hi All,
I am having real trouble trying to enter change mode in an InfoSource.
I want to add an object to the communication structure but it is greyed out and cannot be changed. I have also released all transports which had changes in them related to this info source.
What else could be locking changes to the comm structure?
Any help much appreciated.
Cheers,
Sean.

hi Sean
if that IS is not a Flexi update so .. u U just go to the ZCUSTOMER infoobject and add the new Infoobject as Attribute or Nav attribute

Changing standard infosource

Hello,
I added cost center field to the standard profit center cube, 0PCA_C01. I need to make changes to the infosource. Can you please list the steps to change the infosource and the datasource. Thank you.

1. If the Cost Center field data will be coming from R/3, add the field in data source (check/uncheck with rsa5 if you found the field in existing source, otherwise use user exit)
2. Add the field in Transfer structure /transfer rules and activate it.
3. Re-create the update rules using modified InfoSource. It should automatically collect the new field.
That's it. Try loading data and check if every data is loaded in correct order.
Reward points if it helps.
Regards,
Ashok

Change 7.0-InfoSource

Hi,
I'm looking for a ABAP-program to change a 7.0-InfoSource. I want to sort the infoobjects in my own direction - for excample by:
- infoobject typ
- datatype of the infoobjects
- by description.
I found
- the class CL_RSKS_TRCS
- the methods FACTORY, GET_INFO, IF_RSTRAN_TARGETGET_LIST, IF_RSO_TLOGO_MAINTAIN_INTCOPY_VERSION, IF_RSO_TLOGO_MAINTAINSET_OBJSTAT, IF_RSO_TLOGO_MAINTAIN_INTSAVE_INTERNAL, UPDATE_ACT and IF_RSO_TLOGO_MAINTAIN~ACTIVATE.
- and the function module ENQUEUE_E_RSISOURCE to set a SAP lock.
With the method IF_RSTRAN_TARGET~GET_LIST I get the list of the InfoObjects. Then I sort the internal table L_T_FIELD in my way - and change the field POSIT. And I think I can save it with UPDATE_ACT. But after the activation the InfoSouce is not in the new version.
Can everybody helps me to write the correct ABAP?
Sven

What should BASIS do for an InfoSource transport for Souce System change?

We just create a change request for an InfoSouce. Now we transport this change request from DEV system to TEST system. But when this change request was imported on TEST system, got the "Method Execution" red error which can be checked through STMS in log. The red error msg is "Source system A does not exist", where A is our R3 DEV server. Actually we need the source system B which is R3 TEST server in the InfoSouce transported into BW TEST system, but the problem is that the change request was created on BW DEV which uses A as Souce System in the InfoSouce, then how to make the InfoSouce has B on BW TEST after the transport?
Thanks

hey Roberto,
I think this setting should be conducted on DEV system other than the target TEST system as you said, am I right. Since we conduct the transport on DEV through the Transport Connection and the settings of the mapping of the source system should be set on DEV, right?
Our BASIS know nothing about BW that we can't depend on them even if this is BASIS work.
Thanks

Start routine error - infosource 2LIS_13_VDITM

Hello,
During the activation of the standard InfoCube 0SD_C03 (Sales: Overview), I have encountered a problem in a transformation between the infosource 2LIS_13_VDITM and the afrementioned Cube (this transformation has been transferred during the activation of Business Content).
The transformation is inactive after the installation (other dataflow structures, for other datasources attached to this Cube have been automatically activated). When I try to active it, an error message appers, informing that:
a) Initial update has been set for some of the key rules (e.g. for target field 0VERSION) - but that is a minor obstacle; the bigger problem is that
b) there is a syntax error in the start routine for this transformation
Checking that start routine results with the following error:
E:In PERFORM or CALL FUNCTION "ROUTINE_9998", the actual parameter
"SOURCE_PACKAGE" is incompatible with the formal parameter
"DATA_PACKAGE".
Since I'm not an ABAPer, that info is a bit vague to me.
I have tried to find an answer in the forums but with no success. So if anyone could provide a solution this problem or point me to a thread where it has been answered, I would be very grateful.
I can provide more details should those be needed.
Best Regards,
Alek

Thanks for the info Umesh,
Just to be sure - I should simply change "SOURCE_PACKAGE" to "DATA_PACKAGE" in the code of the start routine? "Source_Package" is present in two places in that code:
METHODS
      start_routine
        IMPORTING
          request                  type rsrequest
          datapackid               type rsdatapid
        EXPORTING
          monitor                  type rstr_ty_t_monitors
        CHANGING
          SOURCE_PACKAGE              type tyt_SC_1
        RAISING
          cx_rsrout_abort.
and then after that in:
Migrated update rule call
Perform routine_9998
TABLES
    SOURCE_PACKAGE
CHANGING
    l_abort.
Or should I revert to the 3.5 version? (as a side note, that Data Source (2LIS_13_VDITM) has been activated in 7.0 version by default, when I replicated data sources in BW).
Praveen, as to your remarks, I have the datasource 2LIS_13_VDITM (in version 7.0) active, along with the appropriate Infosource. Transformation between the DataSource and InfoSource is active, and only the transformation between the InforSource and the Cube poses problems.

Error While loading data for LIS InfoSources.

Hi All,
I am repeatedly receiving load failure errors while loading data using 2lis_01_s001 (This is the case with all the InfoSources).
The error message is:
An error occurred in the source system.
Note
If the source system is a Client Workstation, then it is possible that the file that you wanted to load was being edited at the time of the data request. Make sure that the file is in the specified directory, that it is not being processed at the moment, and restart the request.
in our Quality system, we disabled the LIS Updation to No Update(R3) and loaded data and then again changed the Update Mode for No Updating to Asynchronous Update(R3). But now we are doing dataloading in Production. How to proceed. Should we have to disable the LIS Updating whenever we have to load the loads from R3 to BW.
Regards
Jay

Hi Jayanthy,
Pls. check the order of the fields in the two set up tables for the S001 structure. The order of fields in both the tables should be the same.
You can see the structure in the TCode - SE11.
If the order is different, then you bneed to ask the BASIS person to change the order so that the order of fields in both the setup tables is same. This should fix the issue.
Thanks,
Raj
