IS_Data Insight View Data Function Limitation

Hi Experts,
Is there any limitation to view data of a table using View Data function in Data Insight module in Information Steward. I come across a strange issue with this, the details are explained below.
I am trying to perform Data profiling on table, as part of this I imported table into a Data Insight project. When i tried to view data of a table using View Data function, it is showing blank like (0 from 998987). I am able able to see data in database and even in DS designer too.
Then i created a view on top of this table by selecting all columns and tried to view data, again showed blank. Then i removed some columns in view and tried, now it showed data. The table contains 150 columns, I used around 110 columns in view.
My question here is, is there any limitations in Data Insight for viewing data apart 500 records. Will View Data function consider the number of Rows or the size of data to display the data. If it consider these two, is there any option available in IS to control these two parameters i.e., increase / decrease the size or no of rows.
If anyone come across with this issue, could you please help me if any solutions to fix this.
Thanks,
Ramakrishna Kamurthy

Hello Rama,
In IS 4.2 this limitation is actually stated.
See here: IS_421_user_en.pdf in Related Information section pg 44 which states that:
The software displays only 500 records when you view data from an SAP table. 
Also more details available in section: 2.5.10.2 Limit of 500 records when viewing data from SAP tables.
The software displays only 500 records when you view data from an SAP table.
Views that contain SAP tables have the potential to be quite large, especially when they are joined with other SAP tables. The limit of 500 records when viewing data prevents your computer from hanging or never completing the task because the tables were too large.
In addition to the 500 records limit, you can take steps to enhance performance in the following ways:
● Reduce the size of the file by mapping fields, join conditions, filters, and so on to limit the data in the table to information that you really need.
● Use SAP ABAP-supported functions in forming expressions in views. Using non-supported functions is allowed, but doing so may adversely affect performance.
● Use the View Data filter tools when you view and export data from SAP tables.
With the 500 records limit for viewing SAP table data, there is a potential for no records showing up in the View Data window.
This could happen, for example, when the view contains a child view, the child view contains one or more SAP tables, and a join is set up to join the entire data set.
A message appears at the top of the View Data window that instructs you to export the data to an external source (text file, CSV, or Excel file) to view all of the records.
I hope this is helpful.
Mike

    Hi
    well that makes sense, I did't see the transport files you mentioned in the Transport Queue in the
    ERP system.
    But, in KB 1971036 it is explained that the newer transport files should be imported from
    OSS Note 1916294 after deleting the functions /BODS/BODS. (see attachment)
    Do you think I should import first the transport files from the Admin
    directory, then reimport those from note 1916294 or not ?
    Regards,
    Robert

  • Copy function limitation - data volume

    Hi All,
    Its related to data collection function called "COPY"
    I would like to understand the copy function data volume limitations & Maximum Run time.
    Please tell me where & how can I find out.
    Thanks
    Kamal

    Hi Dan,
    thanks for the reply. the requirement is about copying data from one version to other in the same consolidation area.
    There are 2 option I am looking at
    1. Loading from loading from data stream / Loading data into totals cube 
    2. Using data collection task - COPY..
    Here the question is about the volume of the data, I am sure Copy function would do better than the data loading /Load from data stream.
    Can you please advise
    Thanks

  • How do I view data from OLAP DML program or statement?

    Hi
    I'm struggling to find any information on this topic anywhere on the net:
    How to view data produced by an Oracle OLAP DML program or statement.
    Background :
    I am using the latest AWM to create and maintain dimensions, cubes and measures. However, I've noticed that AWM, Discoverer OLAP, BI Beans, Excel Plug-In et al only provide a fixed set of formula and expressions.
    For example, I wanted to created a Standard Deviation (STDEV) on measure. After much searching I learnt that I could do this by creating a custom measure in AWM by importing a measure defined in an XML dcoument as it's not provided by AWM. The output in Discoverer OLAP on the surface seems to give the correct results, however when drilling from high level to lower level of time time dimension hierarchy Discoverer includes the parent value in the calculation and renders the values incorrect.
    My alternative is to use OLAP DML, as it provides a richer range of formuale and calculations possibilities and I was hoping to use this functionality to do create the measures. I have the distinct impression, however, that OLAP Worksheet is the only interface out there to do this.
    It seems very primitive and limited with regards to data output, almost like SQL*Plus in many ways.
    The burning questions I have are :
    1) Do I need to write DML programs to perform these custom measure calculations and add them to cubes or do I import the custom measures via AWM and XML?
    2) If the answer to question 1 is DML programming, is there a way of viewing the OLAP data output through a GUI interface without embedding the statements in SQL.
    3) Has anyone experienced or noticed the same problem with Discoverer OLAP, AWM Viewer that I mentioned above? i,e, statistical functions performed on whole dimension hierarchy rather than lower levels.
    I'm hoping someone out there knows what I am trying to do or get at. Keith, any ideas or suggestions?
    Thanks
    Kind Regards
    Greg

    Hi Greg,
    There are two ways to achieve what you want. Both require the use of custom calculations which cannot be created via the calculation wizard within AWM. To do this the easiest way is step outside of AWM and use the Excel Calculation utility that is on the OLAP OTN home page:
    Creating OLAP Calculations using Excel
    http://download.oracle.com/otn/java/olap/SpreadsheetCalcs_10203.zip
    Readme
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/olap/OLAP_SpreadsheetCalcs.html
    (Oracle OLAP DML Reference contains a list of all the OLAP functions that can be used to create a custom calculation. http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/olap/OLAP_DML_10.2.zip)
    The Excel tool lets you assign your own formula to a measure and then uploads that measure definition into your AW. It is possible to import a custom calculation template into AWM using the menu option on the Calculated Measure node of each cube, but it is safer to use the Excel Worksheet as this directly uses the public XML API and is always best to use a public API rather than hacking XML templates.
    There are two types of custom calculation:
    1) Formula: using a formula you can directly call any of the OLAP functions. For example to create a measure that returns the standard deviation for a measure then you would enter the following as the formula for your calculated measure:
    stddev(sales_revenue, time)
    The easiest way to test if the measure is working as expected is to use the data viewer within AWM.
    2) Programs - if the function you need is not provided or you want to do special processing to return a result you can create an OLAP DML program which can return a result. To do this use OLAP Worksheet to define the program and add a datatype to the DEFINE statement, such as :
    DEFINE PRG_SD_SALES PROGRAM DECIMAL
    In the program return the value you have calculated within your program. Within the program you can do just about anything but be aware that your program is going to fire for every cell within your virtual cube so it must be efficient and fast to execute. For a measure then you would enter the following as the formula for your calculated measure:
    prg_sd_sales(time, products, geographies, channels).
    The actual program code would look something like this:
    DEFINE PRG_SD_REVENUE PROGRAM DECIMAL
    PROGRAM
    argument T_TIME TIME
    argument T_PRODUCT PRODUCTS
    argument T_GEOGRAPHY GEOGRAPHIES
    argument T_CHANNEL CHANNELS
    variable D_RETURN decimal
    TEMPSTAT TIME, PRODUCTS, GEOGRAPHIES, CHANNELS
    do
    limit PRODUCTS to T_PRODUCT
    limit CHANNELS to T_CHANNEL
    limit GEOGRAPHIES to T_GEOGRAPHY
    limit TIME to T_TIME
    limit TIME add descendants using TIME_PARENTREL
    limit TIME keep TIME_LEVELREL 'CAL_MONTH'
    D_RETURN = stddev(SALES_REVENUE)
    doend
    return D_RETURN
    END
    This code computes a standard deviation the all months within the specified time range, at year level for all 12 months, at quarter level for the three months within the quarter ans returns NA at the month level.
    As the code executes within a implicit loop you can only change the status fo dimensions that for part of that implicit by using the TEMPSTAT command. To test the program at the command line use the OLAP Worksheet and the SHOW command to just return one cell of data, DO NOT SIMPLY USE THE RPR COMMAND because you will have to wait for the whole cube to be returned. If you want to use the RPR command make sure you limit your base dimensions first! You can use PRGTRACE to debug your program code it is not working as expected. Again, the easiest way to test if the measure is working as expected is to use the data viewer within AWM, although this will not return debug information so send all your debug output to a file to capture any errors and/or trace the execution flow.
    Hope this helps

  • How to view data in tables by selecting the synonym from the database objec

    I could not figure out how to view data in tables by selecting the synonym from the database objects navigation tree. I had to first choose the synonym, view the details of the synonym to determine the table name, and then select the table from the database objects tree. Is this the only way available?

    This functionality currently does not exist. I don't see it on the 1.1 statement of direction either, so perhaps someone from Oracle can give some insight as to when this could be expected.

  • Admin Tool Error When Viewing Data in Physical Layer nQSError: 43093

    I am trying to view the data in my Admin Tool in the Physical Layer, I am getting:
    [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred.
    [nQSError: 43093] An error occurred while processing the EXECUTE PHYSICAL statement.
    [nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 904, message: ORA-00904: "STUDENT_NUMBER": invalid identifier at OCI call OCIStmtExecute.
    [nQSError: 17010] SQL statement preparation failed.
    I know why I am getting the ORA-00904 error (the data structure in the external database has changed the the column STUDENT_NUMBER does not exist). However, I am getting TNS Listener errors when trying to re-import the changed data structure (import -> through server). I have checked my ODBC connection and it seems that is not the issue. This functionality existed before (I did pull in the data structure, that is where my error is originating from). Is there something I am missing?
    Any insight is appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Kyle

    Hi,
    After an upgrade, these kind of issues can happen for several reasons as below
    1. Wrong OCI Call Interface. If ODBC 3.5 has been used an Interface in 10g, then the upgraded .rpd might still be using the same even when you have got a number of different options to choose from in 11g. To resolve issues of this type change the underlying database version in the physical layer of the .rpd. Once, you make this change you can see a variety of changes in the queries, performance etc for good.
    2. After you did a 'View Data' on the table, go through the NQQuery.log to see the query it is firing (Yes, you need to have log level set for this user though) and analyze it from the DB end. See, if you run the query in the DB it is fast, but if it is the Admin tool that hangs up with this query. In this case check the network speed, database settings, system DSN driver etc.
    Hope this helps.
    Thank you,
    Dhar

  • *Look Up Help and the function limitations

    Hi Experts,
    I have been working on the look up function in my script logic and faced with certain issues. To give you an insight into the requirements, We have a list of products in 'product' dimension  and whose raw material prices are maintained in another application called "Norms".
    As there are 10 different and unique norms, the current design is to maintain each product's raw materials as 'properties' of the product dimension. We are now doing a look up at the "Norms" application with 10 look up ids in a single look up statement to multiply raw material prices with production quantities planned.
    The script logic is successfully validated ( for testing used only 5 look up ids). However, the end result in the cube is populated only for 3 instances. All the look up ids after 3rd instance is ignored. Is this the look up function limitation in BPC? We are on NW 7.0 SP 06. Please find the logic below.
    Kindly suggest if indeed it is look up function limitation or not? Also kindly suggest if there is an alternative way of acheiving this as in our case our look ups are restricted to 10 only.
    *LOOKUP Norms
    *DIM AAA:PRODUCT="MR1"
    *DIM BBB:PRODUCT="MR2"
    *DIM CCC:PRODUCT="MR3"

    Hi All,
    Any help here. I am sure this would be a very common scenario wherein to compute certain accounts, the reference data is stored in a different application.
    Here we are trying to calculate raw material cost based on sales quantity budgeted. Each product's rawmaterials are maintained as properties against the product. The code has to look for matching raw material IDs in the look up application and calculate the raw material cost.
    The above code is validated. But not seeing the complete results upon execution. Please suggest if there are any errors.
    Thanks,
    Santosh

  • View data in client B from client A in the same SID without a valid logon?

    Hi Folks
    We are planning on upgrading our 4.6C system to ERP 6.0, and are initialy considering having two clients in the same sandbox SID.  One would be for the developers to perform code remediation checks (client A), and one would contain a copy of production data for performing testing of functionality over live data (client B).
    Would it be possible to view data in client B from client A in the same system without a valid logon to client B or RFC connection to client B from client A?   For example via the use on an ABAP program to SQL the database?
    I know one can use transactions like SM30/SM31 to view, compare, and adjust data between clients, but this requires an RFC connection and valid logon to the target client.
    Regards
    Kevin.

    Short answer: yes.
    If someone has the right to write and execute ABAP reports on the system he is able to access the data of all clients. So I don't think that this setup is advisable. Don't mix development and production data in one system.

  • Data Federator Universe Date Functions

    Hi,
    I created a Data Federator Universe from target tables (Source Tables from: Sql Server 2005 and Oracle 10g). Now, I want to create a object in the universe: "Days between 2 dates"(coming from 2 different target tables). I don't see any other date functions other than CURDATE(). How to create my object?
    Alternatively, Can I create a caliculated column in the existing target table? For Example, I want to create a new column "Days between 2 Dates" from 2 different tables by using a formula in Default mapping of the target table.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Peter

    Hi Amit,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Ok. So, Universe on top of Data Federator has limited functionality.
    And, other option you mentioned is on report level. I am creating an adhoc universe and I have few objects which will calculate days between 2 dates coming from 2 different tables.
    But, how can I achieve this on Data Federator level. I have no function there to find Days Between 2 dates. I see lot of time and date functions but not the one I required. Also, I added a column in the target table and tried to apply the formula there in the default mapping area. But, I see only the selected target table. I need another date column from another table, which is not displayed in the default mapping area.
    How can I achieve this?

  • Error : The ORDER BY clause is invalid in views, inline functions, derived

    Hi All,
    I am on 11g 6.2, Windows Server 2008, my db SQL server 2008, I am facing the error for the reports in which I am trying to edit one the column formula and do something like 'abc/sum(abc)*100'.

    When I create a calculations in 11g like abc/sum(abc) in the column formula for a column then i get this error.
    What does this error mean? Does OBIEE 11g doesn't support using these expressions in the report and the fact that it applies the order by clause to the reports, the report fail?
    Could anybody please explain the issue. There is very limited information on this over the web.
    Thanks in advance.
    Ronny

    Thanks svee for the quick response, actually i had resolved the issue by unchecking the EXPRESSION_IN_ORDERBY_SUPPORTED option in the database. I want to understand how does that makes the difference?
    What does EXPRESSION_IN_ORDERBY_SUPPORTED mean? Does it mean that if I give any expression in my answers report and since obiee uses a order by for all the queries, the expression won't be supported?
    Please explain.

  • Date function problems with dates from core not recognized as dates

    Our core provides dates in two formats: YYYYDDD and MMDDYY (YYYYDDD for today [2/21/12] would be 2012052).  We have determined that Crystal Reports is not viewing them as dates, but rather numbers. If querying on just a specific date, no problem. But if I want to use a date function like DayOfWeek, then things don't work.
    I need a report to always provide yesterday's data - except on Monday, where it needs to look back at Friday.
    I tried a criteria of:
    if DayOfWeek(CurrentDate) = 1 then {DDMAST.DATOP7} = CurrentDate - 2 else
    if DayOfWeek(CurrentDate) = 2 then {DDMAST.DATOP7} = CurrentDate - 3 else
    {DDMAST.DATOP7} = CurrentDate -1
    {DDMAST.DATOP7} is the date field from our core.
    I tried this but got an error message of "A Number is Required Here" and it highlights the CurrentDate - 2.
    Since we believe that Crystal Report is not viewing our dates as dates - but viewing them as numbers, what do I need to do to correct this?  Someone suggested I'd need to extract each date portion (month, date, and year) and create variables to "build" a date that Crystal Reports would understand.  Any suggestions?

    Hi, 
    You're correct.  There appears to be two branches in this thread. 
    To address your issue, Crystal only recognizes actual date types, ie. Months, Days and Years.  Your serial date isn't a recognized date type so we have to: 
    1)  Determine which format your date field is
    2)  Convert your number to a date using the appropriate formatting. 
    I am assuming your dates will either be 6 (MMddyy) or 7 (yyyyddd) characters long.  If there are other patterns you'll need to determine that. 
    The problem I found is what does your date for today (March 6, 2012) look like in MMddyy format? 
    Any month before October would never have a leading 0 if your date is stored as a number.  So you should take that into account as well using my logic. 
    I added that into the logic by checking for a length of 5. 
    NumberVar Full := 030612;
    StringVar myDate;
    myDate := ToText (Full, 0, "", "");
    Select Length (myDate)
        Case 5: Date (2000 + ToNumber (myDate [4 to 5]), ToNumber (myDate [1]), ToNumber (myDate [2 to 3]))
        Case 6: Date (2000 + ToNumber (myDate [5 to 6]), ToNumber (myDate [1 to 2]), ToNumber (myDate [3 to 4]))
        Case 7: Date (ToNumber (myDate[1 to 4]), 1, 1) + (ToNumber (myDate [5 to 7]) - 1)
        Default: Date (0, 0, 0);
    If you edit the first line and change it to: 
    NumberVar Full := 2012066;
    You will also get today's date.

  • How to delete MRP view data after create in Material master data ?

    Hi all ,
          After user  create a useless MRP view data in Material master data , how to remove it ?

    Hi
    Material master once created cannot be deleted.Only thing u can do is to mark it for deletion
    Go to Logistics > Materials management > Material master > Material > Flag for deletion > Immediately.
    Give the necessary data that is needed for the view you want to delete.
    Press and flag the view you want to delete.
    Now the view is flagged for deletion. This means that it's use is limited and it will be cleaned up or really deleted at the next clean up of the system.
    regards

  • Set data function

    hi folks,
    i'm new to flex and that is why i don't know when the set data function of item renderer is called. means what causes the call for set data function of item renderer?
    i inherited a flex application (the developer left) and i am wondering why the set data function of one item renderer is called when an item of the item renderer was clicked but the set data function of another item renderer is called just one time (when the view is created) but never again even if an item of the item renderer was clicked.
    so please can someone explain me or mention a good ressource for reading about how it works?

    Whenever data changes in some way, for example when the dataprovider is changed, the set data function is called automatically.
    Some tips:
    1. Make sure the dataprovider is bound (<s:List dataprovider="{myDataCollection}"/>
    2. If you change the dataprovider, call the refresh() function (like when the dataprovider is a IListCollectionView)
    3. override the set data function in your itemRenderer to do additional things there.
    Hope this helps
    Dany
