Look up and V lookup

Hi Gurus,
What is Lookup.At which instances is it used?Do we have any Look up in BW?could any one help me with the info pls??
With Thanks,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
The concept of look-up can be used in BW to populate a field in Target Infoprovider when poplating via an Update Routine.
Means Source Data does not contain the field and the data for the field needs to be looked-up from some other source using some key fields.
This can be implemented in Update Rules by writing a Update Routine for that field and performing a look-up there.
For example Shipment Delivery ODS does not contain Sales Order Number, do using Delivery we can perform a look-up on delivery ODS to capture this data.
I hope this is meaning of look-up, if anything else, please excuse me.
Thanks
CK

    May be I'm too foolish to follow those links, I got issues of each links.

    Refer the Lookup document - Easy Lookup in Process Integration 7.1
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/20befc9a-aa72-2b10-ae9b-b0988791d457
    The first step is "Create an RFC Enabled Function Module for look up", but where can I create the function module? Should I use ESB, IB? or use transaction 'SE11' ?

    Very good links for RFC lookup with 7.0/3.0

    At page6 "PI Development/Configuration", it saies "You are on the design maintenance screen in the Integration Builder.Expand the subnodes for the software component version for which you want to import interfaces".
    What is "design maintenance screen" ? My IB version is: Service Pack:08 Release:NW07_08_REL.
    When I open IB, it display a screen titled with "Configuration: Intergation Builder", I did not find "software component version" node on the left tree.

    The Prerequisites state:
    The JDBC channel to be used for the lookup must be configured and activated in the Integration Directory.
    The definition of the table used for the lookup must already be imported into the ES Repository as an external definition
    But I don't know how to create a JDBC channel and define the table.

    what is lookups
    Lookups are used to identify / request the data from mapping , i mean interupting the process and looking for data which was stored in some where and get that data and comback to process and continue with that data.
    why we can use for lookups.
    We will use these type of lookups in Message mapping for refering DB Lookup for data base which is not SAP, RFC lookups for SAP data
    Look up tables
    In the error handling topic we have seen the different validations which need to be performed on file.
    This can be done through Lookup.
    Some use cases:
    • Look up employee information.
    • Lookup for raising an alert.
    The purpose of the lookup may be:
    • To perform application-level validation of the data, before sending it to the backend.
    • To populate fields of the XML document with some additional data found in the backend application.
    There are two ways in which we can do lookup:
    • Call lookup method from GUI mapping.
    • Call lookup method from XSLT mapping.

    Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

    Assuming you do not have access to the "original" video/project and the YouTube video is the only copy, there is a method. Try "YouTube Downloader" which is a free software that allows you to download clips from YouTube as .mp4 files. You can then edit with Premiere, and re-encode again for upload to YouTube. Just keep in mind that you are re-compressing the video so there will be some quality loss. The better the quality of the original, the better the copy will hold up.

  • I want to go back to Firefox 3.6. It did everything I wanted a browser to do and I didn't have to learn a whole lot of new stuff. Firefox 4 looks alien and hostile to me.

    I want to go back to Firefox 3.6. I just downloaded and installed Firefox 4 and it looks alien and hostile to me. I am not computer literate and do not want to have to learn a whole lot of new navigational skills, having just had brain surgery. Firefox 3.6 was performing adequately and I mistakenly thought an "upgrade" would provide something that would be easier, not harder, to use. I guess I was just being naive.
    How to I get rid of Firefox 4 and go back to the latest edition of Firefox 3?

    I see a lot of people talking about how to make 4 LOOK like 3.6..big deal...I want it to BEHAVE like 3.6...like not taking up 2 gigs of RAM if I leave it open more than 90 minutes.

    Under the Effects-Lumetri Looks-Desaturation choose a B and W effect. Then add the luma corrector from the Video effects-colour correction section. Adjust the brightness and contrast to get the effect you want.

  • On Google Chrome the Adobe edge web font looks fuzzy and broken-up. Is there a way to fix this?

    I have created a website with Adobe Muse and I am using an adobe edge web font that looks great on all browsers except for google Chrome... On chrome the font looks fuzzy and broken-up. Is there a way to fix this??? Thanks.

    Thank you Sanjit,
    I have redone the site using using the font TREBUCHET. The font that I was using that was giving me the problem was EXO which is an Adobe Edge Web font. I'd rather use EXO... Here is a screen shot of a sample page, areas where the type looks especially messed up are circled in red.
    This only happens when opened in Google Chrome on a Windows PC. However it looks fine with Chrome on my MAC.

Its rainy and humid where I stay this time of the year. Apple guys are you reading this? does the management go through this website.? Hey Apple guys, can you replace my phone for me.Its so slippery and slides out very easily from my hands. I have owned smartphones before but yours is a real slimy slider. so while I was shooting pics in varanasi in march it fell out of my palm (it was drizzling) and the rear screen (the section next to the camera) kinda cracked real ugly and obviously due to this the camera is behaving kinda crazy too. can you guys help me out here.?

    If your phone is defective (aside from the accidental damage) Apple will fix or replace the phone. You saud you purchased the phone in January so it is still under warranty. 
    If you have an Apple Store in your area, make a Genius Bar appointment.
    If not, Contact Apple Service Center:

  • How to avoid hardcoding in RFC Lookup and JDBC Lookup during transport...

    Hi All,
      We have RFC and JDBC Lookups in some of our scenarios(JDBC to RFC synch)....Now problem is during transport of design objects, we have to change the business system and channel name manually in UDF in target environment....as it wont change although we define the target group in SLD.....we want to avoid this hardcoding.....one idea is we can use a business service inspite of business system and assign the comm channel to it.....this business service will be generic for all environment(dev,qua and prod)...and hence we dnt hav to hardcode....pls let me knw how to achieve or its possible or not....
    waiting for ur inputs....
    Regds,
    Pinangshuk.

    Hi,
    For RFC lookup you might be doing hardcoding for Business system and RFC channel name.
    Options are
    1) Create value mapping for Business system. So you can maintain it in Directory part.
    2) Keep the RFC channel name same for all system (Development, Quality, Production)
        The details of channel can be changed in the Directory part of the respective system
