Manage data audit BPC

Hi experts,
What kind of control you could have in BPC using the manage data audit over an application?
As the configuration indicates you can choose the tasks and category you want to audit but i don´t know what kind of information you will have.
Can anybody give me some useful examples of auditing?
Regards.

The audit functionality in BPC is designed to capture information about 6 types of user interaction with BPC. Based on security rights, the Audit report provides data on "what" has happened in the system during a specific period of time. The process must be enabled by one of the 6 functions by category, and scheduled to move from a temporary table to a reporting table on a schedule. The main goal is to use this to monitor interactions from a user / admin perspective with the tool. It doesn't provide any any other functions than capture and report the information with Webexcel.
Hope this helps.

EData and Manage Data in BPC for Excel Hanging

Hi -
Running BPC NW 7.0...was working fine and this morning, anytime go into eData or Manage Data options, BPC for Excel hangs, until we have to go into Task Manager and kill the process. Is there anything (on the server or client side) that could cause this? Other e-menus appear to be working okay. Any ideas to resolve?
Thanks,

Hi,
We are also facing the same issue in QA system. However we are on BPC7.5 SP05 Patch 1.
The system hangs when we go to eDATA. We then have to kill the session from Task Manager.
Any suggestions?

Data Audit

Hi,
I want to get the audit of what data entered(either using Input schedule or script logic) and when it is entered exactly.
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
G.Vijayakuma

Hi,
For this, first you need to set up the activity auditing and then data auditing.
Activity auditing allows you to track the administrative tasks performed in the system. Once activity is recorded, you can run a report that shows system activity, based on specified criteria. The report shows when the task was performed, and by whom. If enabled, BPC tracks activity for the following functional tasks:
Application set and application setup, User and team setup, Member access and task profile setup, Business Process Flow management, Adding, deleting, and modifying business process flows, Saving business process flows to new names, Data audit maintenance and activation of data audits, Document type and document sub-type setup, Activation of activity audit
You can set up data auditing to record an audit trail of BPC activity. You can set it up by application and category. You can select from the following tasks:
BPC for Excel, Data Manager Import, Data Manager Clear, Logic Execution, Live Report, Journals
Hope this helps.

Analysing Task Audit, Data Audit and Process Flow History

Hi,
Internal Audit dept has requested a bunch of information, that we need to compile from Task Audit, Data Audit and Process Flow History logs. We do have all the info available, however not in a format that allows proper "reporting" of log information. What is the best way to handle HFM logs so that we can quickly filter and export required audit information?
We do have housekeeping in place, so the logs are partial "live" db tables, and partial purged tables that were exported to Excel to archive the historical log info.
Many Thanks.

I thought I posted this Friday, but I just noticed I never hit the 'Post Message Button', ha ha.
This info below will help you translate some of the information in the tables, etc. You could report on it from the Audit tables directly or move them to another appropriate data table for analysis later. The concensus, though I disagree, is that you will suffer performance issues if your audit tables get too big, so you want to move them periodically. You can do this using a scheduled Task, manual process, etc.
I personally just dump it to another table and report on it from there. As mentioned above, you'll need to translate some of the information as it is not 'human readable' in the database.
For instance, if I wanted to pull Metadata Load, Rules Load, Member List load, you could run a query like this. (NOTE: strAppName should be equal to the name of your application .... )
The main tricks to know at least for task audit table are figuring out how to convert times and determing which activity code corresponds to the user friendly name.
-- Declare working variables --
declare @dtStartDate as nvarchar(20)
declare @dtEndDate as nvarchar(20)
declare @strAppName as nvarchar(20)
declare @strSQL as nvarchar(4000)
-- Initialize working variables --
set @dtStartDate = '1/1/2012'
set @dtEndDate = '8/31/2012'
set @strAppName = 'YourAppNameHere'
--Get Rules Load, Metadata, Member List
set @strSQL = '

      cast(EndTime-2 as smalldatetime) as ''Time End'', ServerName, strDescription, strModuleName

Next to Only Export Base-level Transaction Data from BPC 7.5 NW

Hey Experts,
I've finally got a Export process configured out of Data Manager that is just about right. However, when I run it, we're getting both base-level trasnaction data and records at the parent level for 2-3 dimensions which we need to specify as "<ALL>".
Is there any way to filter or restrict the output for just the base-level members?
Thanks in advance,
Garrett

Hi Gersh,
I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. To clarify, the trouble I'm having is when Running a Data Manager package from BPC Excel, I can't select just the base level members from clicking the Member Selector and doing Refresh/Use Filter.
The system seems like it accepts this selection, but does not apply it when running the package.
Does that make sense?

Data audit issue 10.0 MS

Hi experts,
I have switched on audit for my appset and configure the audit for different categories. this is the current configuration:
After configuring data audit, I have run BPC, run reports, run different packages and saved data with input schedules. After which I run the data audit reports and works fine for the info modified with packages but the audit report doesn't show the info about the records saved and modified through the input schedules.
I must be missing something obvious but can't figure it out.
thanks in advance
Iker.

Hi Roberto,
I am sure I have sent data to ActRvd and also to other categories because users are currently working with the Model.
I have checked with the audit report if there is any info modified by add-in but there isn't.
I think the next step shuld be to report some info by add-in and then check directly in the database if there is some record created, but the problem is that I don't have rights to access to the database.
Regards
Iker.

Data audit report in BW

Hi All,
I am using NW 7.5, Sp15 and have turned on Data audit for a category in my bpc application. Is there a way to look at the detailed report in BW?
When i use transaction UJU_AUDDATAHDR, it only tells me if a package was run or data was entered. But i'm trying to get the detailed log of the signed data changed for each intersection. I remember seeing this detailed level activity by going to view data audit report in web interface but for some reason when i run the report in web interface it just opens a blank page. I was wondering if its stored anywhere in BW tables as a backup?

Hi Neeti,
Please read this discussion about audit tables: Timestampe required on transaction records

Export Master Data from BPC to BW

I am about embark on creating a solution to export master data from BPC to BW (NW7SP6) and I was wondering if anyone out there has covered this ground previously and has any information on this process that they wish to share?

As of now, you could export the dimension memebr data and upload to BW info object; you may be able to do it with data manager / process chain.

Extraction and loading of Training and Event Management data (0HR_PE_1)

hello,
I've got the following doubt:
before BI 7.0 release, extractor 0HR_PE_1 extracts event data (eventid, attendee id, calday,...) but if you load straight to cube 0PE_C01, as Calendar year/month needs a reference date (for example, event start date), you'll get total duration of event in hours or days refered to event star date.
So in a query filtered by month, you get total duration of an event that starts in the filtered month but it couldn`t end until few months later o year later, so you don´t get appropiate information.
Example:
Event calday Hours
10004377 20081120 500 but from event_attr event end date is 20090410.
In a query filtered by 200811 you get total duration time (500 hours when in 200811 event hours have been 20) or if you filter by any month of 2009 you don´t get information of duration of that event.
I had to create a copy of standar cube (without calday, only Calendar year/month, Calendar year in time dimension) and disaggrate data creating as many entries for an event as months lasts and adjust calculation of ratios duration of event (duration of event in each month/ total duration of event).
The question is: Is there any improvement or change on business content in BI 7.0 to treat Training and Event Management data? Has anybody had to deal with that?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
TEM data is stored in HRP tables.
You can load the catalog by creating LSMWs for objects Business event group (L), Business event types (D), Locations (F), Organizers (U) as per requirement.
LSMW for tcode PP01 can be used to create these objects.
To create Business Events (E) you can create LSMW for PV10/PV11.
To book attendee create LSMW for tcode PV08 as here you can specify the actual business event ID which reduces ambiguity.
tcode PV12 to firmly book events
tcode PV15 to follow up
Hope this helps.

Did you add a System DSN or a User DSN? If you added a User DSN from your own login, the asp.net application will not be able to use it unless its application Pool in IIS is configured to run under the same credentials that you used for creating
the DSN. It's better if you add a System DSN.
Also, be careful to ensure that you are using a 64 bit DSN, unless you configure the application to run in 32 bits. If the 64 bit application attempts to use the 32 bit driver you get the same error message "Data source name not found and no default
driver specified". See this KB article:

Getting Training and Event Management Data using IT0031

Scenerio:
One of the Employee Is Retired. Now we hire it again for the same role ( extending its period after posting it as retired).
So the good thing that we can use the IT0031 "Reference Personnel Numbers" to get the desired ITs and found that can get other cutomized ITs by checking in the "Copy Infotype" attribute of IT records.
Now this seems to be valid if we are in the same module
but waht if i want to get this magic "Referencing of ITs" done for the "Training and Event Managment" Data of the employee.
Is it Possible Automatically ... or have to go fro ABAP... (I will not prefer ABAP)...
I hope i have stated the problem clearly ...
Feedback ... need it ASAP ...

How to extract data from BPC InfoCube via ABAP program?

Hi experts!!
I tried to extract data from a BPC InfoCube via ABAP program, but I did'n have succeed.
I used the function 'RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ' to extract data from standard InfoCubes such as '0COPC_C07' and it run OK! However, when I change the InfoCube name to '/CPMB/WAIX8NE' (BPC InfoCube), everything goes wrong...
Is there any difference between extracting data from BPC and standard InfoCubes?
Thank you all!
