Invalid character value for info object

Hi Experts,
Iam getting this error,when loading master data
Value 'H4-LAMPE 'for characteristic 0Material is in External Format.
0Material : Data Record 1 ('000000000009') : Version 'H4-LAMPE ' is not valid.
i have checked in transfer rule, the column Conversion is not checked. but this is disabled to check.
RSKC also does not helpfull.
in R/3 also length set to 18.
pls suggest me any solution.
Thanks
Sanjay

The issue with the data is the trailing space. SAP BW doesn't like leading or trailing spaces in the data and the routine that uses RSKC doesn't account for that. Try adding the following into your Transfer Rules:
CONDENSE field NO-GAPS.
If you're on BW 7, create a Formula in the Characteristic Rules of the Transformation for this and use the R_TRIM function.

Hi Jony2422,
From the error message, we can infer the issue is caused by the input column “INV_DT” cannot convert to the output column in OLE DB Destination.
Based on my research, the exactly cause is the data type of input column “INV_DT” can convert to the data type of corresponding output column, but the data in the input column “INV_DT” cannot convert to the data type of corresponding output column. We can
verify the issue in the Advanced Editor dialog box of OLE DB Destination.
To avoid this issue, please make sure the input column can convert to the output column in OLE DB Destination, including the all the values in the input column. For more details, please refer to Visakh's suggestions.
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

How to set the Default values for Info Objects in Data Selection of InfoPac

Hi All,
Flat file Extracion:
How to set the Default values for Info Objects in Data Selection Tab for Info Package
ex: Fiscal Year Variant Info Object having values 'K4' 'Y2' etc in Flat file
Initially default value(not constant) for this info Object value should be 'K4' in Info Package
If I set data selection value for this info object K4 it will retreive records with this selection only? how to handle
Rgds,
CV

Hi,
suppose as your ex. if you are having fiscalyear variant in the dataselection tab then specify K4 in the from column, again the ficalyearvariant row and click on insert duplicate row at the bottom . you will get another row . In that enter Y2 in the from column. now you can extract K4, y2 values .

Strange behaviour of Removal of Alpha for Info object in Quality system

Strange behaviour of Removal of Alpha for Info object in Quality system as compared to Development system.
Hi,
The data for an info object Key in the DSO was 00000000000000000000000000123. I removed Alpha for the info object and data was corrected to 123 in the DSO in development system.
Now, when i transported the info object without alpha to quality and loaded data into DSO, the data is still the same with leading zeros.
I dont want to write routine to remove leading zeros, as I have values as 0. If i write routine, all zeros will be removed and this will be blank.
Both development and quality have same patches applied and are on same level.
Why is this strange behaviour in quality system...
Any inputs?? please suggest.
Thanks.

Hi,
Did you drop and reload the data after changing the conversion?

In query i want to show the data wbs element: 1; zarbarb:100
But in fact i got in query wbs element 1; zabarb :200
I've tried to change info object exception aggregation : average all value with reference char. wbs_element, but still the result in query is 200.
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks.

Issue in Hierarchy data upload from R/3 for info object Product Hierarchy.

Hi,
I am trying to upload the hierarchy data from R/3 system for Info Object Product Hierarchy.
Insted of business content info objects (0PRODH, 0PRODH1, 0PRODH2, 0PRODH3, 0PRODH4, 0PRODH5, 0PRODH6), we are using customized objects (ZPRODH, ZPRODH1, ZPRODH2, ZPRODH3, ZPRODH4, ZPRODH5, ZPRODH6).
In transfer rules the mapped is as specified below
Fields => Info Objects.
0ZPRODH1 => ZPRODH1
0ZPRODH2 => ZPRODH2
0ZPRODH3 => ZPRODH3
0ZPRODH4 => ZPRODH4
0ZPRODH5 => ZPRODH5
0ZPRODH6 => ZPRODH6
Now, when I schedule the Info Package, it is ending with an errors
"Node characteristic 0PRODH1 is not entered as hierarchy charactersitic for ZPRODH"
"Node characteristic 0PRODH2 is not entered as hierarchy charactersitic for ZPRODH"
"Node characteristic 0PRODH3 is not entered as hierarchy charactersitic for ZPRODH"
"Node characteristic 0PRODH4 is not entered as hierarchy charactersitic for ZPRODH"
"Node characteristic 0PRODH5 is not entered as hierarchy charactersitic for ZPRODH"
"Node characteristic 0PRODH6 is not entered as hierarchy charactersitic for ZPRODH".
when i tried to load by flat file, there is no issues. But, flat file loading is not allowed for us.
Please let me know any possible solution to handle this issue.
Thanks.
Regards,
Patil.

Hi voodi,
Insted of using the info object 0PRODH1, we should use customized info object ZPRODH1 which I added already in the external characteristic in Hierarchy.

Patil.

Checkbox and ORA-20507: Invalid numeric value #:# for column

Hi All,
I'm facing problems Checkboxes in a form.
I created a form and report on a table. one of the fields on the form is a checkbox and when ever I want to create a new record or update with more than one value for the checkkbox I obtain the following error:
ORA-20507: Invalid numeric value #:# for column COLUMN_NAME Where by #:# is numbers
I think the error occurs at the processes of get_pk and process_row_of_......
how should I change the processes to accommodate the checkbox values.
Kind regards

Collecting too many objects for info-object catalog.

We are on BI 7.0 and I'm collecting info-object catalog for 0FIAR_CHA01 & 0FIAR_KYF01.
Grouping is set to Only necessary objects.
Collection Mode is set to Collect Automatically
Info area & info-object folders are collected.
There is a Package name shown but no previous transport number listed.
It is not $tmp.
What is this indicating?
No objects are checked in the transport box.
I manually check the folder levels so everything is checked.
I create the transport.
I then go to SE10 and check the transport objects and I see several additional objects in the transport that did not appear in the collector window.
Example:
   Application Components
   LOIO
   PHIO
Why were these added to the transport when they did not show on the collection window?
Your expertise is needed.
Thanks
Den

Hi Dennis ,
The system is by default picking up all object types.Actaully ideally it should pick up the Info Objects from the same Catalog.
In Transport connection after you select and move the Info Object catalog for collection ,When you select Package the System is Proposing all Objects as a part of Select Objects for Changing Package.
Effectively you can click on Change Package Icon and see and for Info Objects you selected only should be present in this selection.
Package ID is R3TR anad Object is IOBJ and the object name , Deselect all objects selected and select only your objects. Then it would work.
This will fix your issue and assign points if it heps

Alpha Conversion in node 00000010 for info object 0COSTCENTER

Hi Masters,
I am getting the problem in process chain hirachies. Info Object 0COSTCENETER hier loading the data through process chain sucessfulyy completeed, when saving that hieracies process chain i am getting the error . the problem is " Alpha conversion in node 00000010 for info object 0COSTCENTER".
please give me some solutions
thanks in advance.....
kk

kk,
You can solve by writing an alpha conversion routine in the transfer rules for that infoobject and then load the data.
DATA: l_s_errorlog TYPE rssm_s_errorlog_int.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
EXPORTING
INPUT = TRAN_STRUCTURE-0COSTCENTER
IMPORTING
OUTPUT = RESULT.
returncode <> 0 means skip this record
RETURNCODE = 0.
abort <> 0 means skip whole data package !!!
ABORT = 0.

Hex character value for InDesign frame break

I have been able to identify that the hex value for a carriage return in InDesign is "000D". Is there a specific hex value for InDesign's frame break character?

Through internal magic. There are more codes that are "magic" inside an InDesign document. \u0016 for example, is the code for a table, and you can search for it too. But you cannot insert a table by putting "\x16" in the Replace field. Same with anchored object -- \uFFFC -- and various other magic markers.
I promised "a tip or two" but the only way to bring a frame break in from beyond ID itself is through a Search-and-Replace in ID after you loaded your text. Insert some unique code in your software in place of these frame breaks (something simple like "{FrameBreak}" ought to do it; unless your text may already contain this particular sequence, then you have to make up something on your own), and after placing the text into ID, search for this text and replace it with the code "^R", which is "Frame Break" according to the Find/Replace Text drop down menu.

F4 not working for info object in web analyzer

Hi Everyone,
We have one report, the F4 is working fine for info obect in BEx analyzer but in case of Web analyzer the F4 is getting stuck for the same info object.
Can you please suggest what steps I need to follow to correct it.
Thanks
Kind Regards
Anukul

Hi Everyone,
Yes, value help for variable.
One of variable info object of query, the variable shows the value help in BEx analyzer but in Web analyzer it does not shows the value help for same info object.
When we press F4 in web analyzer for that info object, the screen is getting stuck for long time and not shows any values against that variable.
Please suggest experts, what actions need to take.
Thanks

Id column values for null objects

If I have something like the following, where B.id is mapped to an INTEGER
column in A's table, Kodo wants to store a NULL value into the column. This
doesn't work if the column is specified as NOT NULL. Is there a way to
configure Kodo to use some predefined integer value instead, such as 0
or -1?
class A {
int id;
B b;
class B {
int id;
A a = new A();
a.id = 123;
a.b = null;
pm.makePersistent(a);
pm.currentTransaction().commit();

I'm not sure what you mean by "value mapping." In my case, I am mapping a
null reference to another object. I am using application identity. Here's a
more complete example (still very abbreviated, but hopefully complete
enough):
class A {
static class Id { int id; }
int id;
B b;
class B {
static class Id { int id; }
int id;
int value;
create table A (ID integer not null, BID integer not null)
create table B (ID integer not null, VALUE integer)
<jdo>
<package name="test">
<class name="A" objectid-class="A$Id">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="table" value="A"/>
<field name="id" primary-key="true">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="data-column" value="ID"/>
</field>
<field name="b">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="id-data-column" value="BID"/>
</field>
</class>
<class name="B" objectid-class="B$Id">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="table" value="B"/>
<field name="id" primary-key="true">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="data-column" value="ID"/>
</field>
<field name="value">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="data-column" value="VALUE"/>
</field>
</class>
</package>
</jdo>
A a1 = new A();
a1.id = 123;
a1.b = new B();
a1.b.id = 456;
a1.b.value = 999;
pm.makePersistent(a1);
A a2 = new A();
a2.id = 789;
a1.b = null;
pm.makePersistent(a2);
pm.currentTransaction().commit();
The inserts for table A look something like this:
insert into A (ID, BID) values (123, 456)
insert into B (ID, VALUE) values (456, 999)
insert into A (ID, BID) values (789, NULL)
The NULL value fails because the column is specified as NOT NULL
(pre-existing schema scenario).
What I need to be able to do is specify what value gets inserted for null
object references. Kodo is inserting NULL. I need to insert -1.

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.
