Load Master data attribute with Text Data (Urgent Please)

Hello Experts,
I created a new navigational attribute to one of the master data object and now I want to load that particular new navigational Attribute from the Master data Text (Medium description).
In brief, I need first 4 letter of master data text (medium description) to load in to the navigational attribute. How
How is this possible? Can you please help me to get it solved.
Thanks and Regards,
Harish Mulaka

Hi Apparrao,
Add this attribute to your infoobject's attributes list.
Make sure it comes in the communication structure for the infoobject.
Then in the transfer rules write a routine. You will have to read the text table to get the medium text(field TXTMD) and pull the 4 characters from the beginning and populate your new attribute.
Do a full load and run the attrbute change run.
Hope that helps.
Regards.

  • Error while loading master data to attribute ZMAJORGU(Major organisational unit)

    Hi Experts,
    While loading master data to  ZMAJORGU(MOU)(info object texts) from  datasource (ZOS_HRP1000)datasource iam getting error in DTP.
    below is the error...
    Diagnosis
        Data record 349 & with the key 'Ship &' is invalid in value 'Ship &' of
        the attribute/characteristic ZMAJORGU &.
    System Response
        The system has recognized that the value mentioned above is invalid, and
        has processed this general error message. A subsequent message may give
        you more information on the error. This message refers to the same
        value, even though it does not state this explicitly.
    Procedure
        If this message appears during a data load, maintain the attribute in
        the PSA maintenance screens. If this message appears in the master data
        maintenance screens, leave the transaction and call it again. This
        allows you to maintain your master data.
    Please find the below screen shots
    I have done the following regarding the issue ....Looking at the error i have gone trough the transformation and i didnt find any routines or formuales
    I have checked the PSA and down loaded the data to spread sheet and put a filter on SHORT and STEXT assuming i will find the value
    'Ship &' as mentioned in the Diagnosis description. However i was not able to find the relavent data(i went to se16 gave teh request ID from PSA and displayed the entire data)tarting with Ship .The closest  value i could find in both the fileds was was AVP Shipment .
    I have the following questions
    1)In the screen short 2 it says record number 349 is it right to go to PSA table and check against the record number 349(i tried that but i was not able to find the error against that record)
    2)why am i not finding the value 'Ship' in PSA ...but this is the value wich is creating a poblem in updating to the target ....does it mean the record value is Ship or it starts with Ship or is ir part of some word?
    Please find the attached PSA data file (u have to convert it to Excel)
    I request people to help me analyse the issue and fix the issue.
    Regards

    please have a look at error stack
    and i have one more question when i look at PSA there are close to 300000 records
    but when i do an SE16 with request id i see only close to one lakh records (i came to conclusion b dragging down and the last record number was (below screen shot)

  • Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes error

    Hi experts,
    We were encountering this error before when trying to load master data.  When we checked the system we could not find any locks at the time, and activation or kicking off the attribute change run failed again.  We finally solved the problem running FM RSDDS_AGGR_MOD_CLOSE which sets the close flag to 'X' in table RSDDAGGRMODSTATE.  I have read that it is possible this lock error happens when two change runs happen at the same time.
    My question are:
    1. is it possible to find out what process exactly "caused" the lock? the table RSDDAGGRMODSTATE does not have a reference to any object or job. I am curious as we are trying to find ways to avoid this in the future...
    2. in our case, when we could not find any locks, is running this fm the only work around? is this a best practice?

    Hello Catherine
    I have had this problem in the past (3.0B) --> the reason is that our system was too slow and could not crunch the data fast enough, therefore packets where loacking each other.
    The fix: load the data into the PSA only, and then send it in background from the PSA to the info object. By doing this, only a background process will run, therefore locks cannot happen.
    Fix#2: by a faster server (by faster, I mean more CPU power)
    Now, maybe you have another issue with NW2004s, this was only my 2 cents quick thought
    Good luck!

  • Where to set lock while loading master data attributes

    Hello Experts,
    I have two different datasources from ECC which loads into 0CUST_SALES attributes. I'm using two different DTP & transformation which are loading data in the this infoobject attributes.
    When i try to load data, the DTP fails with an error message at "Updating attributes for InfoObject 0CUST_SALES Processing Terminated" & the job log says: "Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes".
    Here what exactly  LOCK means?
    Thanks in advance.
    Zakir Khan.

    Hi,
    The lock means that some program is updating the master data (a table) and at the same time other program can not update that same master data. When the first program completes the updation it will release the lock so that the other program can update this.
    In your case you and schedule the DTP one after another.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I think there is problem with "0MANU_MATNR" Data, check the records 1033 to 1036 and find the differnce between 1035 record and other records, some values is giving problem so by looking at other reocrds i.e 1033,1034,1036. Check in PSA in Monitor. 
    Note: If any problem with Upper/Lowe case then use TOUPPER in Transfer Rules
    If need use Conversion exits in transfer rules.
    ALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
      EXPORTING
        INPUT         = 0MANU_MATNR
    IMPORTING
       OUTPUT        =   Result .

    Hi...
    Check the Package size in the DTP......try to increase or decrease it.....if it makes any differerence......
    Secondly....in the DTP in the tab "Update" select the option " Valid records update, No reporting"....then the "Semantic Groups" in the tab " Extraction" will work.....it will improve the performance....

  • What are the tables will update while loading Master data ?

    Hello Experts,
    What are the tables will update while loading Master data ? And requesting you to provide more information about Master data loading and its related settings in the beginning of creation infoobjects. 

    It depends upon the type of Master data u r loading....
    In all the master data loadings, for every new value of master data an SID will be created in the SID table /BI*/S<INFOOBJECT NAME> irrespective of the type of master data.
    But the exceptional tables that get updated depending on the type of master data are.....
    If it is a time Independent master data then the /BI*/P<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the loaded data.
    If it is a time dependent master data then the /BI*/Q<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the loaded data.
    If the master data is of time Independent Navigational attributes then for every data load the SID table will get updated first and then the /BI*/X<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the SID's created in the SID table (NOT WITH THE MASTER DATA).
    If the master data is of time dependent navigational attributes then for every data load the SID table will get updated first and then the /BI*/Y<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated with the SID's created in the SID table (NOT WITH THE MASTER DATA).
    NOTE: As said above, For all the data in P, Q, T, X, Y tables the SID's will be created in the S table /BI*/S<INFOOBJECT NAME>
    NOTE: Irrespective of the time dependency or Independency the VIEW /BI*/M<INFOOBJECT NAME> defined on the top of /BI*/P<INFOOBJECT NAME> & /BI*/Q<INFOOBJECT NAME> tables gives the view of entire master data.
    NOTE: it is just a View and it is not a Table. So it will not have any physical storage of data.
    All the above tables are for ATTRIBUTES
    But when it comes to TEXTS, irrespective of the Time dependency or Independency, the /BI*/T<INFOOBJECT NAME> table gets updated (and of course the S table also).
    Naming Convention: /BIC/*<InfoObject Name> or /BI0/*<InfoObject Name>
    C = Customer Defined Characteristic
    0 = Standard or SAP defined Characteristic
    * = P, Q, T, X,Y, S (depending on the above said conditions)
    Thanks & regards

  • Order of loading Master Data - Fact or Fiction

    I understand that for loading Master Data for InfoCube 0FIAA_C01 (or any other) you should load starting from the lowest level.
    That means for every characteristic in the cube you have to check and see if any of the InfoObjects have Master Data attributes, and if any of those attributes have attributes, and so on. This quickly becomes a multi-level structure.
    Part of the tree structure for 0FIAA_C01 would look like:
    0FIAA_C01                                     
    ..........0COMP_CODE                              
    ....................0CHRT_ACCTS                           
    ....................0C_CTR_AREA                             
    ..........0ASSET_AFAB                                
    ..........0ASSET                              
    ....................0ACTTYPE                        
    ....................0BUS_AREA 
    <snip>
    So does that mean that 0bus_area should be loaded first before 0asset?
    Is this fact or fiction?
    If its a fact I am wondering what tools SAP has for determining the order of loading Master Data.
    Discussion points and tools for facts awarded!

    Hi,
    My master data loads are largely in the area of HR.
    The only order I follow while loading master data is for a particular infoobject with regard to text, attributes and hierarchy - The order being text>>attributes >>hirerachy.  Frankly, I have not checked doing it otherwise.
    Across different master data infoobjects I see no need to have any order atleast in HR.  Generally speaking a master data object has data that has an independant existence as extracted from R/3 or other sources and not derived from any other master data object in BW.
    Master data as its name implies should not have referential integrity checks with other master data. 
    It would be good to know if someone has real experience to the contrary.

  • Why we load Master data first before loading Transaction data

    why we load Master data first before loading Transaction data, specify any reasons for that ? Is it mandatory to load MD first ?

    Edited by: Nagireddy Pothireddy on Mar 10, 2008 8:17 AM

    Hi Nagireddy,
    I hope this helps....
    The bottom line for building cubes it to view facts against dimensions. When i say facts these are the key-figures i.e sales volume, Sales vat etc against some characteristics like sales Area,  Cost center , plant.
    Basically charateristics are those against which key-figures are measures like Costcenter, plant, material etc.
         Dimensions are a grouping of related characteristic. So basically a cube has a central fact table with dimesions associated to it in a relational schema. Imagine now you want to view a key figure Sales Volume against a dimension plant. when you consider plant , it has a distribution channel, purchasing organisation , company code, sales area, region etc associated with it. So which form the attributes of plant and also have some or the other description (texts) and aslo hierarchy. first we load the master data and then the transaction data follows.
