Inventory Cube -

Hi All,
I have a need for a customized inventory cube, and am planning to use BX, BF and UM extractors into the same cube. I will enhance all the 3 extractors where they have all the characteristics needed for my cube and queries to match my requirements.
I have the following questions.
1. Some of my reports will require to report weekly and some monthly and some adhoc or when ever they want to see (like daily). So we will be updating the cube every night. Since it gets loaded every night if I left 'No marker Update' unchecked, but COMPRESS the cube after daily load how the data will be kept in the cube? and the impact on the queries.
2. How to decide which key figure should be non-cumulative. I have beginning balance, receipts, issues adjustments and turn rate for each week. But I believe except beg balance rest of the key figures can be cumulative.
If you have done inventory please advice.
Thanks,
Alex.

Alex,
If I define the amount as non-cumulative (what ever the KYF) and gets calculated during the query run time and based on the time requested in the query (cal week, calmonth etc) the value will be internally calculated and displayed in the query. is this a valid stament?
--> Yes. That is the advantage of Non-Cumulative keyfigures.
--> Inventory CUBE: 0IC_C03 contains calday, week, month. Based on user selection it displays balances for day level or week level or monthe level. No need to do any speicific calculation at updaterules or transformation level.
--> Just do delta's daily and compress with marker update(means no check box).

Inventory cube 0IC_C03 ,Stock on particular date

Hi All,
 We are trying to get the stock on a particular date using cube 0IC_C03 ,but we are unable to get the total stock on a given date.
1)Ex: I want stock on 01.12.2009 ,but in the query output I am getting null values.
I am only getting the total stock quantity on the loaded date for ex:04.01.2010(which is my data loading date in to the cube).
2)And when we restrict 0calday with <=01.12.2009 ,i have to get the total stock till 01.12.2009
Thanks&regards,

Treatment of historical full loads with Inventory cube
Setting up material movement/inventory with limit locking time
1)Ex: I want stock on 01.12.2009 ,but in the query output I am getting null values.
 I am only getting the total stock quantity on the loaded date for ex:04.01.2010(which is my data loading date in to the cube).
For 2LIS_03_BX it will give the extracted date only
2)And when we restrict 0calday with <=01.12.2009 ,i have to get the total stock till 01.12.2009
try with below options.
Use :
0VALSTCKVAL " for Value
0VALSTCKQTY " for Qty
0CALMONTH " for Month
Use the above combinations in New Selections in columns and go it.
For Qty Opening:
New Selection bad drag abd drop following things
0VALSTCKQTY " for Qty
0CALMONTH " for Month and restrict with less then or equalto option variable (single value, user input) and set the offeset
 value = -1 bcoz if user will give 12.2009 , so it will display 11.2009 closing stock, this is opening for 12.2009.
For Qty Closing:
New Selection bad drag abd drop following things
0VALSTCKQTY " for Qty
0CALMONTH " for Month and restrict with less then or equalto option variable (single value, user input) .
In the same way build for Value and other Keyfigures on 0IC_C03.
And
Drag & drop
0MATERAIL
0PLANT " Give some Input Variable.
See the steps.

If it is BI 7 then for BX in in DTP in Extraction Tab you need to select Extacrion mode = NON-Cumulative option.

Inventory Cube Compression - Non-Cumulative

Dear All
I have loaded setup tables in R/3
BX as on date TAC MCNB1
BF i.e. Historical TAC OLI1BW
UM TAC OLIZBW
I have loaded the Inventory Cube form all the three Data Sources
2LIS_03_BX : Initial Status
2LIS_03_BF : Initialization
2LIS_03_UM : Initialization
The queries are fine without compression
I have compressed the cube
2LIS_03_BX : with marker update
2LIS_03_BF : without marker update
2LIS_03_UM : without marker update
After compression the data for Stock issues in 24,36,48,60 months is giving vague values i.e.. IT IS ADDING UP ALL THE PREVIOUS VALUES TO SHOW FINAL VALUE
WHAT ARE THE SETTINGS TO BE MADE FOR COMPRESSION OF NON-CUMULATIVE CUBES ?
AM I MISSING ANYTHING (STEPS) ?
Thanks & Regards
Daniel

Dear Anil
I have followed the same procedure
i.e.
BX-init: Compression with marker update
BF-init: Compression without marker update
UM-init: Compression without marker update
BF-delta loads: Compression with marker update
UM-delta loads: Compression with marker update
But surprisingly the values are not reflecting correctly
Thanks & Regards

Inventory cube non cumulative KF displaying incorrectly.

Hi
I have created a inventory cube which is a copy of 0IC_C03, fed from a DSO which has the all the Material documents.
I have intitialised using the BX extraxctor to the cube, then loading data from r/3 via the dso. Have MP on top of inventory and revaluation cube.
Due to an error in the code logic i had to drop the cube and reload the data from the BX PSA and subsequently the DSO.
my problem started then, the cumulative key figure have gone haywire ie they the balance display rubbish data. the data loaded into the cube is correct
also if I delete the latest request and reload the request, then the KF display correctly. strange!
I also the same problem for value as i have a revaluation cube. the inventory values are wrong, when i do a list cube from the MP all is ok.
i checked the validity slice rsdv, it is ok.
i also only have 0calday as the non cumulative setting.
Another thing i noticed was if filter the material by one plant then i get the correct value, if i try to display all plants then it all the balances go incorrect.
also if i see the balances by month only the latest month is incorrect.
if you need more info please feel free to ask.
appreciate if some can propose a solution

Hi Lawrence,
SAP suggests to upload non-cumulatives NEVER from a DSO but from the PSA in parallel to DSO and Cube.

Inventory cube - non cumulativekey fig values are showing -ve values

Hi Guru's,
For Improving the performance of inventory cube *0IC_C03
The following steps i did:
1) Created History cube by taking a copy of actual cube (0IC_C03).
2) Transferred all the four years of data (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010) to history cube(4 yr data) as a back up to do clustering and for cube remodelling.
3) After doing all these, loaded the current 3 years (2008, 2009, 2010)data back to the actual cube and kept one year data in the history cube (2007) (i.e maintained only recent 3yrs data in actual cube).
5) Created a multiprovider includes actual and history cubes and populated the existing report on top of the multiprovider.
6) After purging one year data from the actual cube, stock values in the reports are showing negative values
7) To clear that issue i loaded the 2007 year data back to the actual cube (now the cube has all years data as it was before) to avoid the negative stock value, but again stock values are showing negative values.
How to solve this issues in inventory cube..
how too eliminate the negative value in reports which was working prperly before data purging( removing the first year data from the actual cube)

Hi prayog.. 10q for answering... Yeah i went 2 the data targets. And the forumlae is already wrriten like this IF( Debit/Credit = 'H', Qty in OUn, ( 1- * Qty in OUn ) ) for Actual Consum. K.F and IF( Debit/Credit = 'H', Amt. in local curr., ( 1- * Amt. in local curr. ) ) for Amount.....
So i already said that from one of the infosource the data is flowing through ODS and then 2 CUBE. So i checked out the data in ODS with the movement type and posting date as per in the Report.. I selected the 'Debit/Credit' = H and Movement type and Posting date... But in ODS o/p the keyfig's are not displayed..... This is the problem...
Cheers,

Non Cumulative Inventory Cube Remodel

Hello Gurus,
I've existing inventory cube with non-cumulative key figures with large amount of data. We are using standard non cumulative key figures 0TOTALSTCK, 0ISSTOTSTCK & 0RECTOTSTCK.
Now I've a new requirement to report issues (0ISSTOTSTCK) & receipts (0RECTOTSTCK) based only on LB. Right now they both are in base UOM. Converting them in LB in query (on the fly) is not an option because of volume / performance of report.
I'm planning to do this in backend by adding two more key figures for issues & receipts where i'll convert standard ones in LB. I'm not going to touch any of existing non cumulative key figures. But the overall structure (F table) is going to change.
I'm concerned whether this will work? Any risks? Marker updates?
Thanks.
Abhijeet

Non-cumulative Inventory cube to snapshot Inventory cube scenario

We currently have a non-cumulative Inventory cube in production system and the stock values match to ECC data. Now we want to build a snapshot cube (to improve query performance) and the question is can we use the current cube (non-cumulative) as data source for the new snapshot cube or do we need to load it from ECC? Is there any special handling needed if it is loaded from current cube?
Thanks!

Hi,
You can use the existing cube, but make sure that you have implemented the OSS Note 1426533 before doing this.

Inventory data load from Inventory Cube to another Copy Cube

Hello Experts,
I am trying to load Inventory data from the Inventory cube(say YCINV) to a copy cube say YCOPY_CINV(copy of Inventory cube), but the results appear inconsistant when I compare the reports on these 2 cubes. I am trying to populate a fiield in copy cube so that I can populate the same data back to the original cube with the new field in it, I am doing this reload back and forth for historical data purpose only.
I have seen lot of posts as how to run the setups for Inventory data, but my case does not need to perform set up runs.
Does the note 1426533 solve the issue of loading from one cube to another ? we are on SAP BI 7.01 with SP 06 ,but the note specifies SP 07 ?
I have tried note 375098 to see if it works, but I do not see the options as mentioned from step "Using DTP (BW 7.x)" in BI to perform this note
Please advise on whether to go with implementing note 1426533 or is there any other way to load inventory data from one cube to other.
Regards,
JB

Hi Luis,
Thanks for your reply,
I do not see any setting like Intial stock in DTP except "initial non-cumulative for non- cumulative". I did try using the option "initial non-cumulative for non- cumulative" ,but the results still do not match with the inventory cube data.I do not see the check box for marker in the copy cube (under roll up tab). Please let me know if we can really implement this solution ,i.e. copying from inventory cube to copy cube and then re-loading it back to inventory cube for historical data. Currenlty, I am comparing the queries on these 2 cubes, if the data matches then I can go ahead and implement it in Production, other wise it would not be wise to do so .

JB

Loading to inventory cube - LBWQ ( entry MCEX03 missing )

Dear Guru's,
My main idea is to store only last 1 years of data in inventory cube .
I do not want to load the movements & revaluation data from ECC but reconstruct.
I have successfully initialized only 2LIS_03_BX and filled the set up table and further loaded in to BW.
For movements data i wanted to recontruct , so i reconstructed .
BW --> opening stock is correct.when compared with MB5B
Movements ( some data missing ) -- If i check for the historical stock , results does not tally.
I further checked and found some transactions missing in the cube ( when compared to MB51 movements list )
I tried to bring in these into BW using full load of 2LIS_03_BF.
it fetched 0 records.
I deleted the initialization request from info package in BW for 2lis_03_bf earlier
RSA3 --> also 0 records.
LBWE --> Job control scheduled to run every 1 hour.
RSA7 --> found job scheduled.
LBWQ --> no entry for MCEX03
I have run init with out data transfer and then tried to load full . still 0 records .
Also at rsa3 0 records.
Please help to advise how i can fetch these missing movements / records in to BW
Thanks & regards,
Sudhir.

Hello Janardhan,
When ever a full update is complete, the next records i.e. delta records moves into the Extractor Queue (LBWQ ) and after this moves through Scheduled process in delta Queue ( RSA7) .
The role of Setup tables is limited when you need the full extraction from the Application tables . Setup tables are restructuring tables .. basically are pooled tables which are introduced in the LO Extraction to ease up the extraction . Here System doesn't need to look for the Application table for data , this saves down time and consistency of records.
From Reconstruction it is relevant in 3x. Could you please elaborate what you tried to do..!
You can refer to the below links
Setup tables
LO Cockpit data extraction
Hope this helps...!

Inventory cube load: can I use full load?

hi,
I have an inventory cube with non-cumolative chars. Can I use full load option or I thave to load with delta for non-cumulative KFs?
Regards,
Andrzej

Hi Aksik,
The load will not matter in the Addregation option.You can load by full or delta.
Now the reports creation has to be done with this in mind that the figures has to come correctly.Specify the aggregation required in the properties of the keyfigure in the query.If required use a ODS in the data flow.

Inventory Cube Stock Quantity/Value Issue

Hi Experts,
I have an issue regarding inventory cube about the stock value and quantity.
The Issue is:
1. I Loaded the 2LIS_03_BX first to initialise the materials opening balance, after compressed ther request with the Marker (checked) .
2. I loaded the 2LIS_03_BF with Initialize without data transfer infopackage and compressed in the cube
3. And I did full load 2LIS_03_BF and compressed with check box selected for marker update.
The issue I have is, when the stock quantity/value of a material ( BX , for example is taken on Dec.2011) is calculated(non cumulative key figure ex.0VALSTCKVAL/0VALSTCKQTY in the inventory cube) backwards based on Issues and received stock/value of material , I am not getting the value/stock equal to the value when the business started ( i.e for example Dec.2009, time at which the material opening stock is counted and entered in the system).
example: When I loaded BX ( intialize opening stock), let us suppose for Material A , have 1000kg in Dec 2011. When the non cumulative key figure (0VALSTCKQTY/0VALSTCKVAL) is calicualted for each month or day , at the end of the period for example Dec.2009 the stock should be 100, but I am getting more than 100 like 150 for example, even though all the issued,received and 0valstckval/0valstckqty are correct upto Dec.2009.
am i missing any steps or please let me your thoughts on this one.
Regards
Vamsi

Hi,
Please follow the steps mentioned in this link.I think 2LIS_03_BX full load should not be compressed with marker update only deltas to be updated in marker table of BF and UM.

Inventory cube compression

Hi
We are live with Inventory cube filling and delta of material movements, for past 1 year, However we had not automated compression of cube with marker update, What are the steps to automate rollup & compression of inventory cube, is this recommended as a standard practice?.

Dear Anil
I have followed the same procedure
i.e.
BX-init: Compression with marker update
BF-init: Compression without marker update
UM-init: Compression without marker update
BF-delta loads: Compression with marker update
UM-delta loads: Compression with marker update
But surprisingly the values are not reflecting correctly

Inventory Cube Issue

Hi Experts,
We have created a copy of 0IC_C03 with more no of fields added to the copy cube CIC_C03. We had lot of data mismatch in the earlier stage & now after a long time this copy cube is working fine in production. We have not yet compressed the deltas in the cube.
Now, later there was a field to be added in the inventory cube which takes data from an ODS. For this we created one more copy cube as we didnot want to disturb the inventory cube in production, hence we created one Zcube which is the copy of CIC_C03 with an added field. In the update rules we have a routine which fills with data from the ODS. The CIC_C03 acts as datasource for this Zcube.
My question is:
1) I dont feel that after a month or so, we require the data in CIC_c03 as the same data comes in ZCube. So will deletion of data from CIC_C03 affect my data?
2) The intial data in CIC_C03 are compressed whereas the deltas are not yet compressed. Should the full upload to Zcube take after compression only?
3) Suppose we delete the data from CIC_C03 after 2 months after a full upload is taken till that point. After deletion, the deltas will be coming in CIC_C03, canl these everyday delta be transfeered to Zcube?
Waiting for reply.
Regards,
Vaishnavi.

Hi,
The note(637927) is saying that the KFs which represents the values of Stock-in-transit (issue, receipt, current) are deleted in the cube . But still the cube is containint the KF which represents the quntity of Stock-in-transit (issue, receipt, current) .
So the deleted KF are :
0VALTRANSST - Stock-in-transit value
0RECCCNSVAL - Stock-in-transit issue value
0RECTRFSTVA - Stock-in-transit receipt value
Available KF are:
0TRANSSTOCK - Stock in transit Qty
0RECTRANSST - Receipt quantity: stock in transit
0ISSTRANSST - Issue quantity: stock in transit
So to find out the value of Stock-in-transit , you will use the Stock in transit. The scenario has to be used in this calculation is same as explained in note:589024.

Inventory Cube - Historical Movement Data

Hi experts
In the Inventory Cube 0IC_C03 there seem to some problem with the Historical Movement Data. Now I want to execcute the Query by ignoring the Historical Data. My question is
1. How can I ignore the historical movent and execute a query on Inventory Cube.
2. Can i get the correct Closing balance.
Thanks in advance.
Dinesh Sharma

Hi,
For 0IC_C03, you can't execute the reports without proper Historical data. If you run reports without proper dataloads, you can't get good results. Because all keyfigures are Non-Cumulative Keyfigures, so you must habe proper data in 0IC_C03. It is not like a 0SD_C03 Cube, here you can restrict Month or day then run the reports, but in case of 0IC_C03, you must have perfect data.

Inventory cube adding fields

HI,
What If I will add two new fields(key figures) to the standard inventory cube 0IC_C03.
These two fields for opening stock, closing stock and end value.
regards,
Balarm

Hello Srikar,
To populate those 2 fields for the History data:
1 If you have those 2 fields coming in from some Master Data, then you can probably have a look up to those master data and load the fields.
2 If you have those fields coming from modified Datasource, then you have to delete and reload the data to have those fields populated in the Cube.
I hope this helps.

Rohit

Inventory Cube Optimization.

Dear All,
As I am having the requirement as per the following, need your inputs.
Datamodell:
Inventory Cube 'X1' with data from source system S1 since 2007.
Inventory Cube 'X2' with data from source system S2 since 2007.
Problems:
Queries are defined on X1 and on X2. And the performance of queries are poor due to high volume of data in cubes.
Requirements:
1. In order to avoid the above said problem, I have to create a new cube(History) and move data from X1 and X2 to new cube
(History) with data selection of year 2007 and 2008 and delete the respective data from X1 and X2.
2. Is it possible to do the above said requirement? Regarding the special function of the marker update in inventory cubes and the
calculates key figures?
I have some ideas that we can't delete data in Inventory cube due to the market update concept.
Any inputs and suggestions from your side will be really helupful.
Regards,
Kanagaraj.S

u can archive the dormant data
i.e u can say unused data
create ur report
if u again want ur data back then again reload the data from the sap work directory to the same infocube
