Inventory Managment Scenario - Need help

Question

Hi,
I have following Scenario,
On BW Side:
1) Data is loaded once from DataSource 2LIS_03_BX in Cube1.
2) Data is loaded from DataSource 2LIS_03_BF in Cube1 using 'Initialize Delta Process'.
3) Data is loaded from DataSource 2LIS_03_UM in Cube1 using 'Initialize Delta Process'.
4) Data is loading every week from DataSource 2LIS_03_BF in Cube1 using 'Delta Update'.
5) Data is loading every week from DataSource 2LIS_03_UM in Cube1 using 'Delta Update'.
On R/3 Side:
Outbound Queue MCEX03 (LBWQ) is filling correct and Delta queue (RSA7) for DataSources 2LIS_03_BF und 2LIS_03_UM contains delta data correctly.
So Cube1 is filling correctly und Query on Cube1 is working also correctly.
NOW, we have a new InfoCube (Cube2) which should filled the data from same DataSources 2LIS_03_BX, 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM (same R/3-System) from now onwards.
So,
I have to fill the Setup table for 2LIS_03_BX on R/3-Side, to load Current Stock (opening balance) once in Cube2. Later the delta data from DataSources 2LIS_03_BF und 2LIS_03_UM will be loaded simultaneously in both InfoCube (Cube1 and Cube 2). In RSA3, 2LIS_03_BX contains right now no data!
Question:
When I can fill the Setup table for 2LIS_03_BX on R/3-Side? Or when is the appropriate time to fill the Setup table for 2LIS_03_BX on R/3-Side? Outbound Queue MCEX03 (LBWQ) and Delta queue (RSA7) for DataSources 2LIS_03_BF und 2LIS_03_UM must be empty when I fill the Setup table for 2LIS_03_BX on R/3-Side?? No material postings must be carried out during the process (filling the Setup table for 2LIS_03_BX)?? Any useful suggestion??
Thanks for the answer

Hi Moha,

--> You are loading directly to cube from 2lis_03_BX/UM/BF datasources. So update queue should be empty at time of setup. For that system(R/3) should be locked for postings.
--> And also SETUP takes lot of time.
--> <i><b>You can try this: I think you already have data in BW.</b></i>
--> Stop V3 job(to pull data update queue to delta queue)
--> Pull remaining detla into BW(CUBE1).
--> Now delete initialization and re -Initialize datasources for both cubes(CUBE1 and CUBE2).
--> Push Historic data from CUBE1 to CUBE2 by creating export datasource on CUBE1.
     No need of setup, No need of system downtime.
--> Continue delta's to both cubes.
Hope it Helps
