Macro Question: Possible to change master data?

I have found a few macros that supposedly work to change the master data for infoobjects (MATLOC_SET()...etc.) however when lauching these in the planning book i can see no change in the infoobject master data.
The idea is to change an attribute of an infoobject to remove the item from the selection within the planning book (i.e. change the planning type from A to B). The client wants this done directly from the planning book via a macro. Is this possible with the macro above or do I need to use a Bapi?
Thanx!

Thank you for the response!
The macro that I am using is directly from the 9Aexamples template. When executing the macro it asks for the field name and the value to be entered, trying various field names we have seen no change in the master data.
The reason for this is that we are working with a client that has thousands of products with various profiles. The client would like to have the capacity to execute a macro and remove the product out of the selection directly from the planning book. We thought this would be possible by changing the master data for the infoobject navagational attributes via a macro.
Any additional help would be appreciated!  Thanx again!

  • Question to recruitment/Appl. master data u2013 PB40.

    Hi, I have a question to recruitment/Appl. master data u2013 PB40.
    Maybe someone can help?
    I have created an own candidate action similar to the SAP action u201CInitial entry of basic data.u201D
    The Customizing of the new action is the same like that of the SAP action.
    The problem is that the masks are different:
    The original SAP action "Initial entry of basic data" starts with:
    Transaction: PB40
    Program (screen): SAPMPAP4
    Screen number: 100
    Program (GUI): SAPMPAP4
    GUI status: FAS1
    The action I created starts with:
    Transaction: PB40
    Program (screen): MP400000
    Screen number: 2000
    Program (GUI): MP400000
    GUI Status: INS
    Why do the program, the screen number and the GUI status differ and how to change it?
    Thanks in advance!
    Yours sincerely,
    Thomas

    any talented  guy do this way.
    i think  that ur working  in E2E project work
    before  singoff ur business process u should give to ur users  master data templets..they collect for  masterdatas in before realization phase...that time  u should know  how many specifications is there and  in spections how  many in quantitative and how many qualitative u will indentify. if any query let me  back.

  • Change master data of business consolidation directly in the quality system

    Dear All,
    I need to change master data of business consolidation directly in the quality system.
    Anyone an idea?
    Kind regards,
    Marilia

    Welcome to SDN.
    There are SAP Notes 933024, 804057 and 592239 that provide a means of opening UCWB only for master data objects.
    Another possible work around is to make the updates in BW and use the synchronization programs UGMDSYNC and UGMDSY20. However for FS Items and Cons Groups all of the master data elements such as breakdown category and period of first consolidation are not available for entry in BW so for these characteristics the maintenance must still be completed in UCWB.

    Which OIM version are you using ?
    If 10g then you can set Object permissions for Form
    If OIM 11g, Not possible in current release. You can achieve in some other way.
    Workaround:
    You have a field say "ROLE" on Request Dataset
    End User will select value for ROLE while raising request.
    Create one more field say "APPROVER ROLE". It would be "approver-only" field (It is a property in Request Dataset"
    If approver wants to change some data then he'll select some value in "APPROVER ROLE" field.
    In you approval workflow you can handle if "APPROVER ROLE" is not NULL then use this field else use ROLE field.
    It is just a wrokaround.

  • Change master data setting - Vendor reconciliation account

    Is it possible to change the configuration of a G/L account currently setup as a vendor reconciliation account (that has a balance) to a regular a balance sheet sheet account?
    If yes, what actions do I need to do?
    Are there any risks in doing this?
    Can I perform a similiar change for a G/L account currently setup as a regular balance sheet account that I instead want to use as a vendor reconciliation account?
    Thank you in advance!
    Best regards Susan

    Hello,
    Answers to your questions:
    Question:
    It is possible to change a reconciliation account into a balance sheet account but the current items in the reconciliation account should be manually moved to another account
    Answer:
    If there is a single line item posted(whether the balance is zero or not), it WILL NOT allow you change the reconciliation account in the GL master record.
    Question:
    -New postings will however be posted to the new reconciliation account set up in the vendor master
    Answer:
    If you want to update a new reconciliation in vendor master, then create a fresh GL Account as reconciliation type for Vendor and update the vendor master with new GL Reconciliation Account. When you have done the new postings, new entries will flow to new Reconciliation Account, but the old entries will remain be there in the old reconciliation GL Account. To move the old reconciliation entries to new reconciliation entries executed F.5D (Balance Sheet Adjustment). Please read the documentation available on transaction code F.5D
    Question:
    -What inconsistency in data are you referring to below? - No Inconsistency
    -What reports would these differences appear in? - No differences
    -Is there any risk of making a balance sheet account into a vendor reconciliation account (when baalnces exist)? - Vendor Reconciliation Account is a Balance Sheet Account only. This is a liability account in your Trail Balance.
    Hope this clarifies your doubts.

  • What are the effects of changing master data in bw

    hi gurus
    we have changed a plant (#1234) master data it was under comapany code(12) now it is under comapny code(59) on the r3 side, now there is data in the cubes already which was loaded before the change, and we still want to use it, but since master data has changed and reloded, what will happen when i run reports on the old data,
    secondly i know i can use time dependant objects but my question is what will happen if i dont use it. will the old data run fine under the new comapny code?  and what other things will this change effect.

    ok whats confusing me is that suppose we have this record in the cube
    Comp Code       Plant     kf
       16                   9823     45
    comp code & region is an attr of plant and this is the new master data
    plant     comp code  region
    9823        39              CA
    and this is old master data
    plant     comp code  region
    9823        16              TX
    now when the user tries to drill down by region on that transaction record what will he get for region

  • Question about Extraction of master data from R/3 into BI 3.5

    Hi there,
    i want to extract master data, let's say customers or material, from an R/3 system into BI 3.5.
    Now I know that SAP delivers ready-to-go DataSources for certain SAP applications that can be used for this type of situation. These DataSources will map some R/3 table fields for example to the according Business Content objects in BI.
    My question is:
    Is there some ready-to-go DataSource for the master data i want to extract? Let it be customer data. Or "business partners" is the appropriate expression i think.
    When I use Tcode SBIW to activate the DataSource I need for the extraction, I kind of have problems finding the right one. But for some simple master data I assume there must be a standard DataSource that I can use without bothering to change anything.
    Or am I thinking the wrong way and it is easier than I think?
    Cheers,
    Stefan

    Hi Stefan,
    Some DataSources are 0MATERIAL_ATTR - 0ARTICLE_ATTR - 0MAT_PLANT_ATTR - 0ART_PLANT_ATTR - 0MAT_SALES_ATTR...
    Consider that in some cases (Retail for example) you can find Master Data with 50mln of records, in this case you need absolutely delta upload method, offered by these extractors.
    And above all you can always enhance these extractors.
    You can built your custom extractors, on MARA - MARC - MBEW - ..., but you will not have delta capabilities and support from SAP for maintenance.
    Ciao.

  • S_AHR_61016380 - Change master data

    Hi Experts,
    I have a query......In the standard report S_AHR_61016380 the report gives the data of employee whose master data have been changed and by whom it has been changed.
    Now on double clicking the data it gives the indepth information as to who has changed the data / date/old value /new value etc...
    Now my user says that they would be running the report every month which will be for all ees which is very difficult to see each line item individually...and even on generating the data into excel it does not refleft the data inside.
    Kindly suggest how is that possible or what is the alternate solution for the same.
    Regards,
    Ritika

    This report is  to double check the previous values and compare the current values and how exactly the payroll is effecting the master data.
    But if the client wants to check every employee and monthly then they have to check individually.There is no other go

  • Change Master data

    Hi every one
    a cube has a characteristic which has master data and long text, the master data and long text will be updated to characteristic when the data upload to the cube.
    My question:
    Can i delete all the master data of the characteristic, and then upload same data which has been deleted to the characteristic's master data? will it impacts the cube?

    U can only delete if the data is not used in any other object , if used u need to delete the data first and then u need to reload .
    normally u do re-inits if there is a change in the structure ,, but if it is in BI7 u can remodel witout deleting the object ...

  • Changing Master data table keys

    Hello,
    I have a custom extractor (built by someone else)on R/3 that gets data from table HRP1001.  This extractor contains data I need to implement "job relationships" for HR in BW. 
    I am trying to extract the data into a master data object on BW.  One job in the HRP1001 table (OBJID on R/3) can have multiple relationships (or object types, OTYPE on R/3).   However, since the key of the master data for 0JOB is just JOB, OBJVERS, and DATETO (and does not include OTYPE), the load fails due to duplicate records. 
    Since to modify the master data table for 0JOB would be an SAP mod, I created my own "Z" object from 0JOB.  I have been manipulating the /BIC/M, /BIC/P and BIC/Q tables to try to adjust the key to include at least the OTYPE.  I can successfully change the key of the Z object's master data to appear as I want it, but the new objects I added as keys are "flagged" after the load fails due to duplicate records.  (Checks of each /BIC table are okay and activated changes.  Also performed SE14 adjustment of each table)
    So my questions are 1) does anyone know of a business content item that for storing this type of data that I have missed?  and 2) If not, can anyone recommend how I can correctly modify the key fields of a master data object?
    Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Kelley

    Hello Kelley,
    If you want to enhance the key of your master data table, include the infoobject in compounding. All the infoobjects included in compounding will be included in the key of master data table.
    Hope it helps.

  • Changing master data record while loading Transaction data

    Hello All,
    We have a requirementt to change one of the master data field(FLAG) while loading on the transaction data.
    we get the material info in the Master data. and in the sales order item data also we get the material.
    While loading the Transaction data, I have to set a FLAG field has "s" in the Master data material based on the Key selection:
    Master data -  MAterial = Tramsaction - Data Material.
    I have written the code.. and implemented.. i get the correct records but i face huge performance issue. can any one guide me please
        DATA: itab1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF /bi0/pmaterial,
               wa_itab1 TYPE /bi0/pmaterial,
               w_tabix TYPE sy-tabix.
         IF itab1 IS INITIAL.
           SELECT * FROM /bi0/pmaterialINTO TABLE itab1.
         ENDIF.
         LOOP AT result_package ASSIGNING <result_fields>.
           READ TABLE itab1 INTO wa_itab1 WITH KEY
                              material =  <result_fields>-material.
           IF sy-subrc = 0.
             w_tabix = sy-tabix.
             IF <result_fields>-/bic/paa1c2033 IS NOT INITIAL.
               wa_itab1-FLAG = 'S'.
               MODIFY itab1 FROM wa_itab1 INDEX w_tabix TRANSPORTING FLAG .
             ENDIF.
           ENDIF.
         ENDLOOP.
         IF itab1 IS NOT INITIAL.
           MODIFY /bi0/pmaterial FROM TABLE itab1.
         ENDIF.

    Here are some performance tips:
    Add FOR ALL ENTRIES IN result_package WHERE material = result_package-material to your select statement
    After your select statement, add IF SY-SUBRC = 0.  SORT itab1 BY material. ENDIF.
    In your read statement, add BINARY SEARCH to the end of it
    At the end of your end routine, make sure to CLEAR itab1.
    You can also increase the number of parallel processes for your DTP, and DSO activation (assuming your target is DSO).
