Loading Master Data - Select the 'right' attributes

Hello everybody,
hopefully some expert can answer my question.
I want to load Master Data for the InfoObject 0CRM_PROD.
When I look at the tree beneath the 0CRM_PROD attributes following DataSources are listed:
- 0CRM_PRODUCT_ATTR
- 0CRM_PROD_ATTR (obsolete)
- 0CRM_PR_MAT_ATTR
- 0CRM_PR_REST_IN_ATTR
- 0CRM_TR_CONTROL_ATTR
- 0PRODUCT_ATTR (obsolete)
- 0PRODUCT_GENERAL_ATTR
- 0PRODUCT_STATUS_ATTR
- 0PR_BASE_UNIT_ATTR
- 0PR_COMMERCIAL_ATTR
- 0PR_IL_PROREF_ATTR
- 0PR_PROD_VAR_ATTR
- 0PR_PURCHASE_CATEG_ATTR
- 0PR_SALES_CATEG_ATTR
Now my question is which attributes for 0CRM_PROD do I have to load?
Are any of them mandatory or basic attributes?
And how do the attributes 0CRM_PRODUCT_ATTR and 0PRODUCT_ATTR differ from each other?
Thanks in advance!
Chris

DTP to load master data, gives the message 'No more data available'.

hi,
when i execute the DTP to load master data from DSO, it executes and gives the message 'No more data available'. The request is green but no data is transferred from the DSO to master data.
I want the DSO data to get into master data how do i do it?

Hi Hardik,
Since the request is green, there is no error in extraction. But, as they've rightly pointed out, the Update mode of the DTP must be Delta and there must not be any new Master data that you are looking for.
Compare the data and check if the Delta DTP should bring anything at all i.e. new records. If there are no new records, then the Delta DTP will not bring any more data. Else, change mode to Full and check again.

Problem while loading Master data load

Hi,
i am loading master data for 0PROJECT. for attributes and text we do have delta.
for text after load added records will be 0 eventhough few records there and they are transferred records. i checked in RSA3 it has records.
can any body tell me the reason for this?
Thanks,
Vijaya

for full load only no of added records are 0 where transferred are 26.
i checked in master data table and all these records already present... may be becoz of that reason if i do full load and delta ...added is 0 only.
am i right in this? plz let me know.

Error while loading master data from R/3

Hi Friends,
            I'm just trying to load master data for the infoobject of type "0BUS_AREA", but i have got data into PSA, but not got into char, i have got an error stating that
Record 1 :No source system ID exists for source system (logical system) RD1CLNT100
In tran structure there are two objects not being populated 0LOGSYS & OSOURCESYSTEM, which might cause the problem.
Pls waiting for your replays
Thanx in advance
Balaji K.

Hi Aswin,
           Thanx for your replay, in that one column is there, "source system id" but it is empty, how to generate that two digit source system id and also there are three kind of tabs like
"Release IDs that are in use" "Suggest Source System IDs" & "Maintain Logical Systems"
         How to use and which one to use, and how to follow step by step to run loads once again by populating "OLOGSYS" & "OSOURCESYSTEM" ?
Pls clarify this problem
Regards.,
Balaji K.

While loading master data to infoobject Load failed due to Duplicate record

Hi Experts,
While loading master data to the infoobject load failed .
The error it is showing is 24 Duplicate record found. 23 recordings used in table.
Pls help me to solve this issue
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Gopal.

In infopackage settings u will find a checkbox for 'delete duplicate records'.
I think it appears beside the radio button for 'To PSA',and also tick checkbox for 'subsequent update to data targets'.
This will remove the duplicate records(if any) from the PSA before they are processed further by transfer and update rules.
Use this and reload master data.
cheers,

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
Kiran

I checked other records as well they were a lot of smallcharecters upper case charectres ,numeric special charecters .but nothing stopped ...when the system is even accpeting all other charectres like smallof caps or numeric... why on this record is creating an issue...
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)
Can you tell me what my mistake is numebr or records are not tallying in SE16 and PSA..

Loading master data attributes

Hi.
When I am loading master data attributes, DTP process takes long time (approximately 30 minute) .
Although records count is just 193.
What may be a reason of this?
Information about system:
Software component   Release    Level
SAP_ABA                      700          0023
SAP_BASIS                   700          0023
SAP_BW                        700          0025

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

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

Loading Master Data with compounding attributes

Hello All,
I have a characteristic, "Commission Code", compounded to "Product" and "Commission Code" is an attribute of the InfoProvider, "Sales Rep".
Now, I'm not able to load data into the master data for "Sales Rep" from a flat file because as I get the same sales rep with two different commission codes I get an error caused by "duplicated keys":
below an extract of the flat file which goes in error :
SalesRep (key)     ///     CommissionCode     ///     Product
1000                    ///       10%                      ///    ProdA
1000                    ///        20%                      ///     ProdB
how to load the master data in the proper way ? Where I'm wrong ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
Sales rep infoobject should be compounded by commision code. I think you will get the compound of commision code (product) as well in the compound.
This will make the records unique and you would be able to load same sales rep with two different commision code.
So your key then would be sales rep, commsion code and product together.
Hope it helps,
Regards,
Sunmit.

Error while loading master data attribute

Hi Guru's
I am getting below mention error while loading master data attribute.
0MANU_MATNR : Data record 1035 ('000000000000229058 '): Version 'BDM755s ' is not valid
Please sugggest how to resolve ?
Regards
Karan

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 .
or
ALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
EXPORTING
    INPUT         = 0MANU_MATNR
IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        =   Result .
Thanks

DTP error: Lock NOT set for: Loading master data attributes

Hi,
I have a custom datasource from ECC which loads into 0CUST_SALES. I'm using DTP & transformation which has worked for loading data in the past for this infoobject.
