Master data and text

hi ,
I have a Info Object (IO) called AA.
This AA has a Compounding Character CostCenter and Controlling Area.
I have created my own extractors in the R/3 side seperately for Attribute and Text.
When i pull in the Attr and Text extractor :
they both form 2 diff rows / records in the MAster data Table.
And i am hoping to get the attr and the descript in the same line.(that s the normal way -rigth ??)
Is it Due to Compounding ??
If so In the Transfer Structure for Text,
I have linked Costcenter , AA and AA's description.
Thanks,
GG

Hi GG,
When creating a compoundig infoobject at the database level system with create a table with Compounding primary keys. IN this example we have COSTCENTER, CONTROLLING AREA AND AA as a Compunding primary Key. So we need to see that the Text and Attributes loaded with same keys (ie COSTCENTER, CONTROLLING AREA AND AA) otherwise will be shown as two diff records.
Ex: Attr
COSTC     CA    AA         attr
1000000 1000   10001       Attr1
Text
AA      Text
10001    text1
will be shown as diff records because these two have diff primary keys.
Let me know if you need more info.
Regards,
Varma

QM action not allowed for DTP requests in master data and Text tables

Hi,
I have a master data object load request which has failed, returned error in st22 and job finished.
BUT the request has not turned red in the monitor - it's still yellow. That means that I can not delete request nor start new load to infoprovider because it believes a request is still running. But it's not, I've checked both sm37, sm50 etc.
When trying to manually change QM status to 'red' it says 'QM action not allowed for DTP requests in master data and Text tables'
How can I force QM status to red so that I can move on?
Running NW2004s BI (7.0) Patch 15.
I searched for this question but there is no answer
Thank you

Folks
I know how frustrating this problem is even in netweaver 7.0 environment. I found a solution for this problem atlast and it works but a not direct way of resolving this issue.
When this request is in yellow status and not able to change / delete the request, its actually in a pseudo status and it is a bug in the program. This request sits in table RSBKREQUEST with processing type as 5 in data elements USTATE, TSTATE and this 5 is actually "Active" status which is obviously wrong.
All we need is, ask your basis person to change the status to 3 in both these data elements and then it allows to reload the delta. Once the delta is successfully loaded, you can delete the previous bad request even though it is still in yellow. Once the request is deleted, the request status gets updated as "4" in table RSBKREQUEST.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Loading GL Master Data -- Attributes, Text, Hier ; and Transaction Data

Hi all,
Could any one give me the steps individually to load the following type of data in BI 7.0:
1. Master Data with Attributes
2. Master Data with Text
3. Master Data with Hierarchy
4. Transaction Data
Do I have to create the Transformation and DTP's individually to load all the above kind of Data?
Please give me the information as much as you can.
Thanks,

For master data when you create tranformation it will prompt infoobject to act as infoprovider, and then you create DTP to schedule data to it. It works fine with attribute and Texts, though hierarchy dosn;t support much features of 2004s at my side. Like i am not able to migrate Hierarchy datasource to 2004s, and even when i replicate it, it comes as 3.5 datasource only.
For transaction data follow Gokuls step, or try to find on forums you will get lot of discussion on it.

Master data medium text

Hi,
Master data medium text and long text is not appearing eventhough i checked Medium and long texts in the master data /texts tab page.Plz let me know the solution.
Thanks,
Sr

Hi,
Where is it not appearing...in the reports??
Just check the business explorer tab for this infoobject and see what is the text maintaned there...if it is short text then you will have to change it to long or medium...the way you want.
Check in the tables and do the mappings and load the data in these two fields...you will get an option to map them in trnasformation.
once loaded and activating the master data and making the settings in the business explorer...you should be able to see it in reports.
Thanks

Difference between Activating Master Data and Attribute Change Run

Hi
Is there any difference between Atribute change run and Activating Master data functionaaly???
if wha it is???
can any one explain clearly?
Thanks
Chinna

When u load master data and its attribute to ur data target and if u change any data or attributes of ur master data,in order to update new data to ur data target attribute change run is performed.
When u create a characteristic and if u keep it as master data and activated..it is master data activation
Activating Master Data
When you update master data from an SAP system the master data is imported in an inactive state. You must activate the new master data so that it can be accessed and used for reporting purposes.
For more information, see Versioning Master Data.
Choose the path InfoObject Tree Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate Master Data.
Upon Activation there are two scenarios to choose from:
The Corresponding Master Data Is Already Being Used in Aggregates in the InfoCube:
If you are already using the available master data in aggregates in InfoCubes, you cannot activate the master data individually. In this case, proceed as follows:
1. In the main menu, choose the path Tools Hierarchy/Attribute Change.
2. Proceed as described in System Response upon Changes to Data: Aggregate.
The system now automatically restructures and activates the master data and its aggregates.
Please note that this process can take several hours if the volume of data is relatively high. Therefore, you should simultaneously activate all of the characteristics that are affected by changes to their master data, at regular intervals.
The Corresponding Master Data Is Not Used in Aggregates:
Choose the path InfoObject Tree ® Context Menu of Corresponding Characteristic Activate.
The system now automatically activates the master data so that it can be used directly in reporting.
If there is any change r newly added records in master data..then that particular data will not b avialable for the reporting unless u do activate master data...
if u r using aggregates and then there is any change in master data ...then that particular master data change wil not b available for the reporting unless u do arrtibute change run for that info object.(T-code RSATTR)
Master data attributes and hierachies are used in cube aggregates also. So to do update the latest master data attributes values in the aggregtes attribute change run need to be performed.So Attribute change run also updates the master data attributes in aggregates which is not apart of master data activation.
Text loads do not need attribute change run. Attributes, hierarchies and aggregates need attribute/hierarchy change runs. If you do not have aggregates, just activating the master data is same as attribute change run.

How can we delete SID table data and Text table data

Hi,
How can we delete SID table data and Text table data of any
InfoObject.

Hi,
Go to transaction SE14, give the technical name if the table:
/BIC/T<InfoObject Name> for Text Table
/BIC/S<InfoObject Name> for SID Table
Select "Table" in the given 4 options below & hit Edit button.
in the next screen select "Direct"
& also select "detele data" radio button.
& hit "Activate & adjust database".
this will delete the complete data from the tables.
Note: before deleting the SID's make sure of the consequences & after effects.
Also the SID gets generated the next time you load master data/transaction data only for those records which were loaded..

Iliyas

Difference between master data and transactional data

Hi experts i have just started learning BW can u plz let me know the difference between Master data and Transactional data in bw ? and why is master data is first loaded before the transactional data ? thanks .....

Hi
Transaction data represents any transaction occured between two parties like Customer and Vendor.
We maintain id's to maintain the Customer and Vendor.
When we look at the id we don't have a clue like who is the customer, where does he live,,....
So all this info is maintained in Master data in three categories:
1. Attributes
2. Text
3. Hierarchies.
Collection of Attribute, Texts and Hierarchies is called master Data in BI/BW.
Eg: 0MATERIAL, 0CUSTOMER,,,,,
Master data: is data that remains unchanged over a long period of time. Master data contains information that is always needed in the same way. Characteristics can bear master data in BW. With master data you are dealing with attributes, texts or hierarchies.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/58/a4513ce4af0a40e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Master Data is one form of the historical data. There is no frequent changes in the data.Every application has it's own Master Data.
In BI the master Data has been divided into
Characterstics
Texts
Hierarchies
We can load Master Data through different ways.
Pls. find the below link

What is Master data and how do I use ut

Hi!
I am not familiar with the use of master data, so I need some help please...
1. What is masterdata?
2. When do I use Masterdata?
3. How does masterdata works technicaly?
3. Can someone give me an example on us of masterdata
Thanks

Dear Helge..
1.Master data is one which doesnot change frequently...for ex...our name..Master data is data that remains unchanged over a long period of time.
2. Master data contains information that is needed again and again in the same way
3.Master data contains texts,,attributes and hierarchies.
For ex..Person ID,Person Name can be maintained as master data...
The technically validations can be explained in Star Schema..which uses dimension Tables and SID 's as main parameters..
some Points:
When you create a characteristic InfoObject, it is possible to assign attributes, texts, hierarchies, or a combination of this master data to the characteristic. If a characteristic bears master data, you can edit it in the BI system in master data maintenance.
Hope this heps u...
Assign points if needful,,

Diff B/W master data and transaction data

Hi all,
What is the main Diff B/W master data and transaction data. give me some example ?
Thanks in Advance
Krish...

hi krish,
MASTER Data is the data that exists in the organization like employee details, material master, customer master, vendor master etc. These are generally created once.
Master data are distributed throughout the company, they are often not standardised and often redundant. As a result it is very costly to offer efficient customer service, keep track of supply chains and make strategic decisions. With SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) these important business data from across the company can be brought together, harmonised and made accessible to all staff and business partners. As a key component of SAP NetWeaver, SAP MDM ensures data integrity via all IT systems.
Regardless of the industry, companies often work with different ERP and Legacy systems. The result: the business processes are based on information about customers, partners and products which is displayed in different ways in the systems. If the data are recorded manually, there are more inconsistencies: some data sets are entered several times, others cannot be retrieved by all divisions of the company.
As corporate applications are becoming increasingly complex and produce ever greater amounts of data, the problem is intensified further. Nevertheless, your employees must work with the inconsistent data and make decisions on this basis. The lack of standardised master data easily leads to wrong decisions, which restrict efficiency and threaten customer satisfaction and profitability.
In a word: in order to save costs and ensure your companys success it is necessary to consolidate master data about customers, partners and products, make them available to all employees beyond system boundaries and use attributes valid company-wide for the purpose of description.
TRASNACTION Data - These are the business documents that you create using the master data - Purchase orders, sales orders etc

Downloding the SAP master data and transaction data to a flat file

Hello All,
Is there any SAP standard method or transaction to download the SAP master data and transaction data to flat file.
With out using ABAP development, SAP had provided any tool or method to download the SAP system master and transaction data to flat file.
Thanks,
Feroz.

hi
as of now up to my knowledge no.

Using a sum formula with a data and text row?

In 9.3.1 Financial reporting.
One row is retrieving values from essbase connection and is a data row
the second row is a fixed amount (390K) and was entered as a text row.
The third row is the formula row that sums up row 1 and row 2
However the total shows only the value of the data row (row 1)
I read the doc and it doesn't say you cannot do a formula between data and text rows but it doesn't see to work. Anyone get by this without having to create a dimension to dump a fixed number in to report off of?
JTS

You are right on.. A text row by definition and functionality is to be considered as a text, and not as a number [Even though the text can be number based].
Did you try something like this?
sum(row[41],390)
As you referred, you can always add a member in essbase DB
Cheers

SAP BPC 7.5: Master Data and Hierachiy Load from InfoObject

Hallo Forum Participants,
I am going to load Master Data from a "Clarity" Reporting Tool in BW to SAP BPC 7.5 via Process Chains (/CPMB/IMPORT_IOBJ_MASTER, /CPMB/IMPORT_IOBJ_HIER) delivered from SAP.
These Process Chains load the Master Data and Hierarchies from an InfoObject. To find out more about Ticking of BPC I have performed a following test. So, on BPC Admin Interface I have duplicated the Dimension u201CAu201D and called it as Dimension u201CBu201D (in BW site InfoObject u201CAu201D and u201CBu201D). In the Member Sheet of Dimension u201CBu201D I have implemented the several changes und tried to load Master Data from BW namely from infoObject u201CBu201D into BPC Dimension u201CAu201D. Therefor I created a transformation file and mapped one for one IDu2019s. The data Manager started these chains, but resulted nothing (Status: red X).
What are the features of BPC InfoObjects in Comparision with regular InfoObject?
How can I load Hierarchies into InfoObject?
What else I must take into account?
Why does not work this simple test?
Regards.
Alisher
Edited by: Alisher Babaev on Jan 6, 2012 1:59 PM

Hallo pkrishna,
so it is successed with master data load, but without hierachiies.
My Master Data Properties on Dimension Sheet are:
-ID
-EVDESCRIPTION
-PARENTH1
-CURRENCY
I have mapped as below:
ID=ID
CURRENCY=/CPMB/CURR
/CPMB/CURR- my technical id in BW.
In the Note you advised transformation file has been mapped like below:
-NODENAME=NODENAME
-HIER_NAME=HIER_NAME
-PARENT=PARENT
-ORDER=ORDER
After executing of package i get whether rejected list or log file. No data can be retirieved from InfoObject.
Have you any Idea?
regards
