Master data as a data target

Hi,
I am trying to make reporting on master data.I created a master data and in the master data/text tab I also gave the Infoarea name and I got tick mark master data as a data target,k.and master data is also appearing in the data target heading.and also My communication structure is active.
But when I tried to create an update rule it is throwing an error as given below.
this is urgent.
Plz go through below diagnosis :
Diagnosis:
The data source is not active.
Procedure:
Create the data source in the Administrator Workbench and activate it.

Hi,
When you try to create the Info source for a Master data,
at the starting you should say whether you want an Info
source for Flexible or an infosource for Direct.If you
select the Flexible option, then you will create teh
update rules b/w this infosource and Data target(Info
object).If you select the Direct option, then you ca not
create the update rules b/w this infosource and Data
target(Info object).

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

How to load data into 3 different target tables usin BODS ?

Hello Friends,
I have 5 different source tables with same field definitions, Now I want to load all the records into three/four different target tables (Flat file, SQL Server, XML, and Oracle ) Could anyone please tell me how to do this task ?
Thanks in Advance,
Bheem.

Hello Bheem,
You can create separated dataflow for each target as suggested by Bala, this is a good choice when evaluating you scenario.
If you put all targets in the same dataflow you may experience problems if one of them is down (as you have different servers as targets).
BODS will send the data simultaneously to all targets and when one fails, the load will be break and you may have the tables not sinc anyways (if you plan to use a single dataflow to avoid this situation, it won't do it).
So the best option is to create separated dataflow and put inside another one so you can run a singe dataflow that will call each one of the target and if onw fails the other will complete accordingly.
Then if you put them inside a error trapping, you may even make your dataflow to retry the load prior abend the job.
Think about cascading your dataflows and let the leaf level simple as it can be so it will be easier to schedule and debug your process.
Pay attention to datatypes and other conversions you might need when working with more than one source/target.

"Error While loading data from ODS to Target "

Hi All,
I am loading masterdata from ODS to infoobject as data target, I am getting an error message as
Error message from the source system
Diagnosis
An error occurred in the source system.
System response
Caller 09 contains an error message.
Further analysis:
The error occurred in Service API .
Refer to the error message.
DataSource 80BP_ID does not have the same status as the source system in the Business Information Warehouse.
The time stamp in the source system is 09.08.2006 10:17:24.
The time stamp in the BW system is 15.03.2006 16:44:34.
But we are getting Data till ODS, when we manually load from ODS to infoobject this error is coming up.
Please help in resolving this,
Thanks,
Sairam.

You are welcome Sairam
The generated objects are export datasources based on the ODS objects. These are automatically generated because ODS objects are a key component to a data model or datawarehouse strategy where their role is to stage the data for consolidation or harmonization purposes. The generated datasource helps you to load data into further data targets. The use of a cube as an export datasource is not as common, and so the datasource is not automatically generated for them.
Hope this helps...

Master Data and Transaction Data For DB Connect extracted Data...

Dear Experts,
I have been working on SAP NetWeaver BW 7.3 and for the first time I have extracted data from Oracle DBMS by using DB Connect. I have successfully extracted data of a View namely Sales_View into BW by creating a DataSource. This View has about 100 fields and I have been told that this view consists of Master Data and Transaction Data too. For my further reporting needs say building a Dashboard or InfoSpace I have to design a DSO and InfoCube for this DataSource. I'm bit confused about the Master Data and Transaction Data of this DataSource.
1. Should I create all custom InfoObject against all fields of DataSource for DSO and InfoCube design?
2. Do I need to create and load the Master Data for all InfoObjects or I need to create or load the Master Data for only those InfoOjects which will be
used for drill down or reporting in Dashboard or InfoSpace?
3. Do I need to load the Master Data manually by creating Flat Files and using these files for Master Data loading for required objects?
4. How should I approach the designing of DSO and InfoCube?
I will appreciate your inputs in this matter.
Many thanks!
Tariq Ashraf

Thanks!

Datacopy command copied [0] source data blocks to [1073] target data blocks

Hi,
When I ran this particular script, datacopy command executed successfully but the values did not copied (Plan1 has values). Can you please suggest.
Datacopy command copied [0] source data blocks to [10736] target data blocks
SET UPDATECALC OFF;
SET CREATEBLOCKONEQ ON;
FIX("")
DATACOPY "Plan1" TO "Plan2";
EndFIX
Thanks, UB

FIX("")
DATACOPY "Plan1" TO "Plan2";
EndFIX^^^Did you mean to have your FIX statement blank?
FWIW, you don't need the CREATEBLOCKONEQ setting at all for the purposes of the DATACOPY.
I'm a little puzzled by the log file message -- 0 blocks to 1073 (or is it 10736?). That seems somewhat unlikely -- how could you copy nothing to something. Unless it is somehow triggered by the CREATEBLOCKONEQ setting but I don't believe that has any impact beyond block creation in formulas.
Do you see an actual increase in the number of blocks in database statistics?

Catalog group code data - is it Master data or Configuration data

Hi all,
Need some clarifications between Master Data and Configuration data. In CRM we use catalog code groups and codes for ticketing systems. The code groups and codes are defined in SPRO (IMG) once and consumed in catalog schema’s at client level. I refer to this code groups and codes in SPRO as Master Data, cause it is shared across modules and does not change so frequently. However I was recently corrected by my manger that since it is transportable it cannot be Master Data, it is configuration data. And tasked to contact SAP and get the correct/official answer. Is it configuration data or master data and what is the determination.
BTW, allow me to clarify that we like to know the right answer for proper documentation and this is not the who’s right challenge J
Best,

1.server creates new client thread for each newly accepted connection Good. Make sure the server doesn't do any I/O in the accepting thread, including even construction of input and output streams.
2.if one of these client threads receives some data from the client, then:
3. this client thread creates new ControlThread object (and passes received data to it )Why? What does the Control thread do that the client thread can't do? Does the client thread really create a new Control thread per piece of received data? What's the purpose of the Control thread here?
4. ControlThread object in turn spawns a new thread Again why?
From your description you appear to be creating:
(a) a thread per connection
(b) a thread per piece of received data
(c) another thread per (b)
What you probably need for a chat server is an input thread and an output thread per connection. The output thread should read a queue and the input thread should write to the appropriate queue(s), making sure you don't create a loop by sending the client's own data back to him.
5. Finally, this spawned thread will send data to all client apps.No. Use one output thread per connection, as described above. As writing to a socket can block, you shouldn't use a single thread for writes to more than one client, otherwise the whole system can stall due to one non-co-operating client.
a) how scalable is this server app?It's about as non-scalable as it could possibly be. You will have an explosion of threads per item of data received if you've described it correctly, and you already have too many threads per connection.
b) what would you�ve done differently ( in terms of basic program structure )?Almost everything: see above.
Perhaps creating ControlThread object each time data needs to be sent to other client apps is a bad ideaMost definitely.
