LIS & Update Rules...?

Hi Gurus,
I am doing extraction by using generic information structure. so to create update rules for comm. structure and information structure, i have few doubts here.
For keyfigure i am taking NETWR from comm. structure MCVBAK. in general rules these is option Event and Update type. so i given the event VA.( we have to pass VA because this is related information for Tcode VA01,VA02 etc) so here what is update type...? In third block under Date field for period determination option there is two fields that "Table for data and Date field". so what it means here again..
check all this in Tcode MC24, in that double click any KF. so that you get the pop up screen, in that pop up screen there is all the above fields. please let me know from anyone what is purpose of these fields here...
thanks in advance for everyone. Please give me clear meaning for this.
Regards
swetha

Hi
Update type ;
Whether this extract tables should be updated immediately when document is changed. Or should it be updated later
Like that you mention mode of update here
MCVBAP - From this table date will be extracted when you extract data
ERDAT - This is the field for Date in that table
This is just a detailed screen for the field ...
Hope this helps
Regards

Lis--Updating cannot be tramnsported to another system

Hi All,
am very new to BW. I am having problems to extract LIS info to BW.
read all the mails in SDN on LIS extraction.
IN txn MC24 when i am trying to update my info structure i am getting the message
"Updating cannot be transported to another system"
in log i saw it asks me
"The info structure S998 has the development class $TMP and therefore cannot be transported. For this reason updating definitions for info structure S998 cannot be transported to another systems.
Procedure
It is possible to transport the update rules to another client in the same system.
If you still want to transfer the info structure, call up the function transport features in the info structure maintenance (transaction MC22) and change the development class.
when i went to MC22 and went to "Create object directory entry"...
i see package as $tmp so had selected local object...was the above problem due to it...
If i have to create another package then what do i have to do and what transport layer should i put"
hoping to get some reply. Am very confused with this LIS and LO extractions . Spend a lot of time in tryong to understand it.
Thanks
Mansi

In the past two weeks I did a bit of research but not to much avail. I noticed I had the "Locale Switcher" add on installed, and deactivated it. Switching languages in the "Languages" tab of "Add-ons" still did not work (yes, I restarted every time). I installed the "'''Quick Locale Switcher''' 1.7.4" extension (yes, I restarted), and it displays a number of locales in the "Tools" menu; still choosing one has no effect (yes, I restarted).
Then I juggled with Quick Locale Switchers "options", which actually displayed in Esperanto (so I cannot tell you what they say in English). I check the first one (saying more or less that locale switching should affect the user interface) and switched to German (yes, I restarted) -- and '''it worked'''! I switched to Esperanto -- and Firefox went to ... English!
After a lot of searching in the Web I found on "[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/esperanto-language-pack/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/esperanto-language-pack/]" that this pack is "'''Not available for Firefox 3.6.16'''". That might explain something (not everything); probably I lost my language when I upgraded from 3.5 to 3.6.
Here a little error message could save people hours of their lives...

About data transfer/update rules setup

Hi All,
After this BW loading project, I am wondering if anyone can confirm with my issues.
--What is the difference between'initail load & full load'? Examples to use them, please.
--If i use V3 to update, can I choose weekly? some expert told me that i can change the setting in OMO1 after first time loading. I tried it and it didn't work. Why???
--If we loaded into ODS and re-loaded to Cube, should I have the same loading schedules(update rules) for ODS and Cube?? (ex: both full load and weekly)?
--The update rule in OMO1 is for transfer datasource to BW and is nothing about ODS and CUBE loading, Am I right?
--Should I have the same keys for ODS and Cube?
--How can system not replicate loading? EX: every month sales order loading.
Thank you for helping me to understanding data loading in BW.

Hi John,
Here are the answer
--What is the difference between'initail load & full load'?
Ans:-Initial load means initialization which is one time activity if you do not provide any selection criteria while initialization ( this will take your all data to BW depends on extractor you are using ) once that is successful you need to switch your load to delta when you do this only records which are changed will be fetched.
Full load means al records will be fetched and will be aggregated whether you should go for initialization or full load depends on your data requirement.
--If i use V3 to update, can I choose weekly? some expert told me that i can change the setting in OMO1 after first time loading. I tried it and it didn't work. Why???
Ans :--> I think if you are using Lo then you can change this in LBWE job control . OMO1 is if you are using LIS and you want to switch your update in LIS delta tables then the procedure is to go in LBW0 first deactivate your delta mechanism by putting your infostructure name then go to OMO1 and change your control parameter to schedule your delta mechanism on.
--If we loaded into ODS and re-loaded to Cube, should I have the same loading schedules(update rules) for ODS and Cube?? (ex: both full load and weekly)?
Ans:--> Not compulsory but good to have same schedule I mean as soon as ODS is loaded successfully start the load for cube.
--The update rule in OMO1 is for transfer datasource to BW and is nothing about ODS and CUBE loading, Am I right?
Ans -->yes you are right but let me make some correction
in OMO1 update parameters are for switching of delta tables of LIS .
--Should I have the same keys for ODS and Cube?
Ans--> Not compulsory depends on your business logic.
--How can system not replicate loading? EX: every month sales order loading.
Ans--> question not clear for me.
Hope this will help you .

User exit for update rule of info structure

Hi gurus,
Can anybody tell me how to implement a user exit of update rule for LIS info structure, for ex,S140.
Thanks
Eric xu

There is no user exit and we are not allowed to modify the update rules of the standard SAP info structures. However, you can create your own info structure with the same or similar configuration and then apply a formula or a requirement in the update definitions (MC25 transaction), as you please.
After that you can just turn off the update of S140 (in OMO1 transaction) and use your own info structure instead in MCSI transaction.

LIS Update Problem

I have a problem with LIS reporting which i am not able to rectify . Its a Automotive business, we have 3 order types, ZCKD, ZCBU for Vehicles and ZSPT for Spare parts. All three have same item category YTAN and item category strategic group 1, also all three order types are assigned to order type strategic group 1. All there order types uses same customer and in all customer strategic group 1 is assigned, All materials of CKD, CBU, and Spares have strategic group 1. All assignment at header and item level are done for all sales areas.
Problem is that in LIS reports CKD and CBU values are updating successful but for spare parts even after almost 1000 order it is only shows the Customer name, material sold dates, but no value, all the values are 0, I have checked S001 to S001 in Se16 and for all the spare parts material values are 0. I have done checked at header level and item level update in customizing but it is showing no error, I am not able to find the reason, I also made another order type copied from OR and new spare Part material, and new customer but still no result. Please guide if I am missing something or doing something wrong.
I have also executed Oli7 , 8 ,9 , but no result. I hope I have stated the problem clearly.

LIS
The LIS is a central integrated information system where one can create specific tables that are updated at specific stages and that can be used to report on values contained in specific fields. SAP has standard information structures for reporting purposes. The std info structures can be accessed via: LOSDSISStandard analysis. The reports use the following characteristics: customer, material, sales org, shipping point, sales employee, and sales office.
IMG menu path for SIS: IMG>Logistics General>Logistics Information System (LIS)
The Logistics data warehouse is divided into two main sections: data basis and updating. Data basis is responsible for the actual design of the info structure, that is, what key fields are reported on or displayed. Updating is responsible for the updating rules used by the system, determining how the info structure is to be updated, and when this updating is to take place.
Task 1: Create Self-Defined Information Structure
Use transaction code MC21 (menu path Logistics Data Warehouse>Data Basis>Information Structures>Maintain self-defined information structures> Create) to create a Self-Defined Information Structure. Give a customer-range number 990 (any available number between 501 and 999). To make it easier, use copy from to copy structure from S001.
Task 2: Maintain Update Groups
SIS IMG>Logistics Data Warehouse>Updating>Updating Definition>General Definition Using Update Groups>Maintain Update Groups
You can use the existing system-delivered update groups. Use Update Group (UpdGrp) 1 for the standard order process of: SIS: Sales Document, Delivery, Billing Document and use UpdGrp 2 for the SIS: Returns, Returns Delivery, Credit Memo.
Task 3: Maintain Update Rules
SIS IMG>Logistics Data Warehouse>Updating>Updating Definition>Specific definition using Update Rules>Maintain Update Rules>Create Create (transaction code MC24). To make it easier, use copy from to copy update rules from S001.
Please make sure the Source information is properly updated for all the characteristics. Since you copied the rules, the sales order and item rules are defaulted too. Make sure appropriate changes are made for events VC (delivery) and VD (Invoice).
Task 4: Maintain Statistics Groups
Maintain Statistics Groups
Maintain Statistics Groups for Customers, Materials, and SD Document Types etc. Most of the pre-defined settings are enough. Make sure that settings are updated for customized objects too, e.g., SD document types for your organizations.
Also, make sure that the customer (sales view) and material Master records are updated with appropriate Statistics Groups.
Maintain Statistics Groups for Customers, Material and Sales documents. Assign Statistics Groups for relevant Sales Document Type, item type, delivery type, item type, Determine Billing Document Types Relevant to Statistics.
Update Customer Master for Statistics Relevancy
Transaction Code XD02 (Sales view, field Cust stats.Grp)
Update Material for Statistics Relevancy
Transaction Code MM02 (Sales 2 view, field Matl statistics grp)
Task 5: Assign Update Groups to Header and Item Levels
Assign Update Groups on Header and Item levels
For combinations of Sales Area (Sales Org, Distribution Channel, Division), assign Update groups (transaction codes OVRO and OVRP).
SIS IMG>Logistics Data Warehouse>Updating>Updating Control>Settings: Sales>Update Group
- Update Groups at Item Level
- Update Groups at Header Level
Task 6: Activate SIS Update
Lastly, Activate SIS Update for the Structure (transaction code OMO1)
SIS IMG path: Logistics Data Warehouse>Updating>Updating Control>Activate Update>Choose Activity as Sales and Distribution.
Last update our SIS structure S677 with period as Month and update option of Asynchronous Updating (2).

Update open sales order values. - Update rule.

Hi
In library below information given for the updation of open sales order value in infostructure. Can any one please explaing how can we configure below two rules.
An update rule describes the set up of the open sales order value, i.e., the open sales order quantity. The second update rule describes the reduction of open sales order value, i.e., the open sales order quantity by the corresponding deliveries.

Error while Activating update rule in BW

Hi,
I am getting an ABAP dump while activating an update rule. The rule is from DSO to cube.
"MESSAGE_TYPE_X" " "
"%_T020N1" or "%_T020N1"
"INSTANTIATE"
I have added some new fields in a DSO. The rule is from DSO to cube. While activating it, I am getting this ABAP dump. There are few other rules from this DSO to other DSO which got activated but this one is causing dump.
Any ideas/suggestions on this would be really helpful.
Thanks,
Naveen

Hi
Check if your Cube , DSO and UR's are active. If not reactivate them. Ideally you could recreate the UR's and check the status by running the extraction.
I would also recommend to use elimination method to check if any particular field is creating an issue. While recreating the UR's , create them for a few fields - active - check extraction - this will also let you know if the issue is within any oif the rules.
Cheers

Error while Transporting Update Rules.

hi xperts,
   I am getting Error while Transporting the Update rules,i already transported the INFOCUBE,INFOPACKAGE EVERYTHING.
    Start of the after-import method for object type R3TR ROUT (Delete Mode)
Errors occurred during post-handling RS_AFTER_IMPORT for ROUT L
The errors affect the following components:
    BW-WHM (Warehouse Management)
Is the error,I didn't change any thing in the Cube or changes to Update rules.
Can anybody Help me?.
   thanking you,
                               with regards,
                               Narendra.

Hi,
Are you still facuing the issue ?
No need to worry about the routines, once you save the update rules if there is any routines in it it will be saved in the same request. If you want to check the routines you can check in the transport connections. Transfer the update rule to the right hand side of the screen and you can see all the routines that belong to the UR.
If you know the technical names of the routines you can check in the TADIR table.
Have you transported the info-sources for this update rules ? why not you again capture the info-source and the update rule in a single request and transport again.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Soumya

Simple creation of Update Rule from BW Data Source

Hi guys,
 Pertaining standard SAP Business Content extractors
 I am referring to InfoCube : 0PA_C01(Headcount and Personnel Actions)
 I am attempting to create an Update Rule from Info Source : 0HR_PA_PA_1(Headcount)
 This Info Source : 0HR_PA_PA_1(Headcount) is connected to BW Data Source(Not R/3!) 0HR_PA_PA_1
 I have created an Info Package for this Info Source and managed to get 15 records{In Contrast to my 68800 Records from Info Source : 0HR_PA_0(Employee)}
 So, when I create an Update Rule to Connect Info Cube: 0PA_C01(Headcount and Personnel Actions) to Info Source to Info Source : 0HR_PA_PA_1(Headcount), I get the following error
ERROR : IC=0PA_C01 IS=0HR_PA_PA_1 error when checking the update rules
Could you please also advice, why do I only get 15 records for Data Source 0HR_PA_PA_1 ?
P/S : I am on BW 3.5

Hey Rohini,
 This Data Source: 0HR_PA_PA_1(Headcount) is tricky to me because it`s a BW Data Source.
 Exact Error Message is as follows :-
"Error Message : RSAU461
 IC=0PA_C01 IS=0HR_PA_PA_1 error when checking the update rules "
 My Exact Problem is that I don`t see any values for the following fields in my Info Cube : 0PA_C01(Headcount and Personnel Actions)
Country;
Country Code;
Gender;
Nationality;
Language;
Postal Code;
Region;
Position;
Job;
Payroll Area;
Payroll Group;
Pay Scale's;
Pay Grade's
This is because, this information is supplied by InfoSource : 0HR_PA_PA_1
But I don`t have an Update Rule for this InfoSource in my InfoCube : 0PA_C01
So, that's why I am attempting to create this additional Update Rule
 And also, could someone enlighten me why would SAP not include such a standard Update Rule when they have already idenfied those needed fields in a Cube ? This is suppose to be a STANDARD workable Business Content right ?
P/S: I have applied Note : 336229

Error in activating the update rules

Hi All
I am getting an error while activating Business Content update rules.
I have activate Cube and corresponding InfoCube and was trying to select update rule for the Cube and installing it.
It however gives an error saying Update Rules (Technical Name) are not found.
Anyone encountered this in the past.
If yes let me know the remedy
Regards
PB

Hi P B,
This might be a long shot, but I still want to see if I can be of any assistance:
Have you encountered SAP note 789272 and SAP note 787875?
They should be contained in SP 19 for BW 310, and your errors do resemble those we encountered, albeit using a different version of BW. These notes are relevant for both mine and your version.
Otherwise, I'll gladly have a look at your error messages you can send over here.
Best Regards,
Daniel

Error in activation of update rules.

Hi,
I get an error - 'IC=0PP_C02 IS=2LIS_04_P_MATNR error when checking the update rules' while activating the update rules in BI content. Rest all the data flow is activated except update rules.
Can anyone throw some light on this?
Thanks & Regards,
Manisha

Hi ,
Check the update rule.
In that there are two routines.
In the first one Goods being processed & 2nd one as well , there is syntax err.
/BI0/APP_O010 doest exist.
Mostly it is fetching some data from some dso in this routine.
So it should be activated.
Then update rules will be activated.

Using an internal table from a strt rountine in an update rule

I created a start routine and i now want to take the value from the internal table and set my result to it in my update rule. I try that and it says it isn't a header table but I defined it this way. here is the code
DATA: T_BILL_DATA LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF /BIC/AZBIL_O5300,
 Ls_data like line of T_BILL_DATA.
$$ end of global - insert your declaration only before this line -
FORM compute_key_field
TABLES MONITOR STRUCTURE RSMONITOR "user defined monitoring
USING COMM_STRUCTURE LIKE /BIC/CS2LIS_12_VCSCL
 RECORD_NO LIKE SY-TABIX
 RECORD_ALL LIKE SY-TABIX
 SOURCE_SYSTEM LIKE RSUPDSIMULH-LOGSYS
CHANGING RESULT LIKE /BIC/VZSD_C51T-SALESORG
 RETURNCODE LIKE SY-SUBRC
 ABORT LIKE SY-SUBRC. "set ABORT <> 0 to cancel update
$$ begin of routine - insert your code only below this line -
fill the internal table "MONITOR", to make monitor entries
result value of the routine
READ TABLE T_BILL_DATA WITH KEY
DOC_NUMBER = COMM_STRUCTURE-DOC_NUMBER
S_ORD_ITEM = COMM_STRUCTURE-S_ORD_ITEM
REFER_DOC = COMM_STRUCTURE-DELIV_NUMB
REFER_ITM = COMM_STRUCTURE-DELIV_ITEM
BINARY SEARCH.
RESULT = T_BILL_DATA-SALESORG.

Hi LMM,
The definition is not correct, your table doesn't have header line.
try this,
DATA: T_BILL_DATA LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF /BIC/AZBIL_O5300 with header line.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Soumya

Start Routine in Update Rule

I want to replace all '# ' values showing up in a report with space. For this I plan to write a Start Routine in the Update Rules which should scan all the data coming in into the cube and replace all null or '' with space.
What is the best way to write this routine. It should check all data in all the fields of the data load coming in.
Thanks

Hi,
     The space is shown as # in the BW Reports, to confirm check the value in the cube for this field, so
      you need to change that to some other character like X or Y or explain your end users that SAP
      designates a space as # and it will be displayed that way in the reports.

Raj

Can you help me interpret the following lines in UPDATE rule?

Hi,
Can you help me interpret the following lines in UPDATE rule?
1. What is the role of role of u201CCHANGING RESULT.u201D and u201CCHANGING lc_local_value.u201D?
2. What is the role of the CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY', in particular the Exporting and Importing parts?
3. Can I say that u201CCOMM_STRUCTURE-ORDER_VALu201D in the subroutine is passed to u201Clc_document_valueu201D in the u201CFORM loc_curr_convertu201D; and further passed to u201Cforeign_amountu201D in the u201CCALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_TO_LOCAL_CURRENCY'u201D?

5. Also, if there are 3 different subroutines in the INCLUDE and I am making the change described in #4 above, how do I know which of the 3 subroutines to call?
===============================

So I am reviewing a transfer routine in for u201CActual Goods receipt quantityu201D and routine an INCLUDE statement: INCLUDE RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES.

HI,
Thanks so much the explanations.
I just verified again on our dev system and the update rule for 0GR_QTY (Actual goods receipt quantity) include the following:
    perFORM QUANTITY_CONVERT
       USING    COMM_STRUCTURE-CPQUAOU
                COMM_STRUCTURE-po_UNIT
                COMM_STRUCTURE-base_uom
                COMM_STRUCTURE-numerator
                COMM_STRUCTURE-denomintr
       CHANGING RESULT
Now, in the include, I also found:
FORM QUANTITY_CONVERT
USING    QC_SOURCE_VALUE
           QC_SOURCE_UNIT
           VALUE(QC_TARGET_UNIT)
           QC_UMREZ
           QC_UMREN
CHANGING QC_TARGET_VALUE.
i. Does it mean it actually does quantity conversion?
ii. If you have access to the INCLUDE I will appreciate some hints on what the subroutine QUANTITY_CONVERT is doing. It does not appear do to be saying anything about quantity conversion; but it is supposed to be doing something with the parameters being passed from the update routine.
iii. In your response to #5, after all the computation in the INCLUDE, what comes back to the Update rule i.e. what comes back to become the value of 0GR_QTY?
Is it the u201CRESULT.u201D in the update rule or u201CQC_TARGET_VALUE.u201D in the subroutine in the INCLUDE.
iv. So, am to create an Update rule for 0PSTNG_DATE and the source is BUDAT; and I need to write a routine using the include INCLUDE RS_BCT_MM_UPDATE_RULES.
I looked through the INCLUDE and identified all the subroutines in this INCLUDE as follows:
QUANTITY_CONVERT
LOC_CURR_CONVERT
GET_WEEK
WEEK_DAY
QUARTER_DAY
--Does it mean that to use this subroutine, I can only use the USING parameters of one of these listed subroutines?
--Also, does it mean that because 0PSTNG_DATE is a date, I can only use one of
GET_WEEK
WEEK_DAY
QUARTER_DAY
--Or, are there other includes to be used for 0PSTNG_DATE
Thanks

Can not view update rules on production BW server

This can be quite a time-consuming problem as I can't always tell if the latest update rules are successfully transported to production.
Most every where else in production I can choose to DISPLAY however this is not the case with update rules only.
Is this a typical setting for most companies? Can I turn off this setting so I can at least DISPLAY the update rules?

hi,
as far as I know you can only see any rules (transfer, update etc.) in BW in change mode.
if you know where to change this setting (i.e. to see rules) - do it
you only have to remember to change it on dev and transport.
Regards,
Andrzej
ps. work around would be to debugg it with simulate data package processing, how to do this?
