Master Data Attr

Hi All,
We need to have attribute of a master data in a DSO. For that we need to go for either Lookup from master data (End Routine) or we can have mapping of 'Read Master Data' in transformation.
Please suggest which one will be good option in terms of performance.
Thanks in advance,
Tony

Hi,
The Read master data is field level mapping so, it has to update record by record.
Where in the END Routine you can take all the records into an internal table at one shot and then you can update to DSO.
So, i think the END Routine is better option on LOAD PERFORMANCE. but you have to make sure that no much logics or IF or Else or While conditions involved in the END Routine as these conditions may cause the performance.
and also While loop can take much time.
And also please make simple on the END Routine part.
If the End routine is simple, then this will be better in performance aspects.
But the Read master data is an User friendly option which can easily opt..
hope you understood. .

"Master data attr. of" un change source of update rule.

hi,
What is the importance of following in "change source" (characteristics) in update rules.
1. master data attr. of
2.initial value
3. Source chars
4. constant
When and why these are used.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Avneet

Hi Avneet,
Lets say Material group is an attribute of 0MATERIAL. You cube contains Material and also Material Group as a separate characteristic (not as navigational attr) becasue you want to store the value of material group as it was during the time the transaction happened.
But here you transactional data coming from the source brings Material values, not values of Material Group. So in the update rule for Material Group, you can specify "Master data attribute of" 0MATERIAL. What the system will do is take the value of 0MATERIAL on this record and populate Material Group taking the value that is present in Material Master data.
So if Material = M100 and Material Group is MG01 in master data, it will supply MG01 to Material Group char in the cube.
Hope this helps...

Master data attr./text/hier. loading

According to best practice for Headcount and Personnel Actions( 0PA_C01), we have to do several process after infocube activation. e.g. active Query, query view, and loading transaction data.
The question is when should we load master data attr./text/hier. ? Why does SAP do not put it on the best practice document?

Hi,
You should always load Master data before transactional data. This helps in loading transactional data faster as the SID tables are already populated once you load the master data and helps master data load performance. Make sure that the loaded master data is followed by an attribute change run always as if this step is not executed, the loaded master data will not take effect.
Also in terms of reporting, if any users are accessing the queries and master data is missing at that point of time (might be loaded later), then the reports for those characteristics are going to show up as # (not assigned) and make no sense for reporting.
If the referential integrity box is checked during transactional data load, the loads will fail if relevant master data is not loaded first.
So, always load master data first, followed by attribute change run and then load the transactional data.
Cheers,
Kedar

Loading data from one master data attr.to another master data in production

Hi all,
I have two two masterdata attr info objects A and B( have time dependent attr.).
according to businees requirement i have included 8 objects of A TO B to make them as time dependent.
all reports are designed on infosets only having these A and B ,some other ods objects.
I have done mapping in infosets and made changes in queries according to changes.i when moved from dev to quality and checked all infosets and queries all changes are reflecting in infosets and queries in quality.
*QUETIONS * :
1. while executing queries i am getting 'no data' in the reult of query output.
2. How can get 8 fields data from A to B, because A has lot of data for that 8 fields in A in production
Regards,
Chinna.

Hi chinna
first of all maintain the master data to attributes and these attribute converted into Navigational Attributes
in this way u can get master data at query output
thanks

Error while realigning aggregates through master data attr. change run

Hi all,
We are using Sales Overview cube (SD_C03) on which we have built aggregates. now during the master data attribute change run it tries to realign the aggregate once the master data is loaded via Process chain. In this step we are facing an error:
"Error while procesing aggregate <aggregate technical name>"
From ST22 we can find
Database error text........: "ORA-14400: inserted partition key does not map to any partition"
Internal call code.........: "[RSQL/INSR//BIC/F200009 ]".
Whereas from SM21 we can find out:
Database error 14400 at INS access to table /BIC/F200009.
/BIC/F200009 is the fact table of one of the aggreates we have. really looking forward to your valuable suggestion.
Thnaks,
Abhishek.

Master Data Attr not showing in query

Hi SDNs
Iam having some queries in Bex built by previous developer. We recently enhanced customer master by three fields. When I wanted to add it in queries, I can only able to see those address fields in one query rest of 5 queries are not showing the new enhanced attributes.in fact I cant see any attribute (eg: 0sold_to has 20 attributes but its just showing 0country as the attr) I dont know why the rest are not showing. Also, when I tried to create a new query, I can able to see all the attributes for 0sold_to , 0ship_to etc...but the existing query doesnt showing the attributes ? Does any body know why the attributes are not shwoing in current query / do i need to uncheck something / unhide something in Bex for the existing query...I want to add the new fields only in existing query,I dont want to create a new one...
Thanks

Hi Sam,
If you go to the report and do Change query global definition then you should be able to see the new attributes on the left side of the query designer and then you drag and drop them on the right side. If your attributes are navigational then you will have to turn them on as navigational in the Cube/DSO too, then only you can see them in the query.

Error loading master data attr and text for 0material

Hi gurus,
I am new to BI, I am getting an error RSDMD- 194 when i am loading 0MATERIAL_ATTR and TEXT.
It is showing for nearly 100 records in the error stack.
Can anyone explain some basics,
1) why do we need to add 0MATERIAL to a particular Info area to start loading its ATTR and TEXT
2) Are the info objects that appear in the attributes tab of 0MATERIAL the same as the fields of 0MATERIAL_ATTR datasource, basically what i don't understand is are we mapping the 0MATERIAL_ATTR datsource fields to the info objects appearing in the attributes tab of 0MATERIAL info object.
3) Also when i added 0MATERIAL to my Info Area , there were some extra info objects that got in, are there any dependent objects that get added ?

Hi,
"Error RSDMD- 194 when i am loading 0MATERIAL_ATTR and TEXT.RSDMD- 194"
Please check if there is any external characterstic in those 100 records, correct it and load again.
1) why do we need to add 0MATERIAL to a particular Info area to start loading its ATTR and TEXT
It does,t matter where the 0Material is. Info area in kind of Folder to easily locate and put the all the related objects at one place.
2) Are the info objects that appear in the attributes tab of 0MATERIAL the same as the fields of 0MATERIAL_ATTR datasource, basically what i don't understand is are we mapping the 0MATERIAL_ATTR datsource fields to the info objects appearing in the attributes tab of 0MATERIAL info object.
If it is a business content infosource, it will automatically map the attribute to data source field. If you are modifying or creating your own object, you should map it manually based on field name and description.
3) Also when i added 0MATERIAL to my Info Area , there were some extra info objects that got in, are there any dependent objects that get added ?
If you will move any objects all the compounded objects will also come to the info area.

Kams

Master data Text/ATTR

hi,
Please suggest the master date attr for the below CRM infoobjects
0CRM_RSN_CO Activity Reason Code
0CRM_RSN_CO Activity Reason (Code Group)
0CRM_RSN_TY Activity Reason (Catalog)
0CRM_LEAIMP - priority
0CRM_PRCCAT - Process Category
The above are either blank in reports or show the key values.

Hi,
You may search for data sources in RSO2 tcode. You may use name of attribute with wild charateristics (*).
You will find alll available ATTR and TEXT data sources as per your need.
I hope it will help.
Thanks,

Process Chain - Master data Reorganizing and Realignment

Hello Experts,
1) Could you provide me the best practice on using the Re-organizing the master data for Time independant and time dependant attributes/texts.
2) In addition to attribute change run for Master data attr/hier/texts, how significantly it would help by adding Re-organizing the master data process step to the master data load process chains ? Is it mandatory to have this step at all ?
3) Is it sufficient to run the realignment for attributes alone or you have to run it again after loading the hierarchies ?
4) Advice whether to add Re-organize master data step for every single attribute and texts since it cant be grouped like other process types such as attribute realignment run!
Look forward for your updates!
Thank you, Vijay

Hallo
Please have allok at the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/e60138fede083de10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm
Probably it is not mandatory but if your masterdata is a mess than it would be better on performance

Loading data from SAP BW standard table to master data text

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me the steps to load data from SAP BW standard table to master data text?
How should the data source be created?
Thanks in advance.

Hi aparajith,
Have you loaded the master data attr ?
ECC Steps
then load the attr text
create the ztable using standard table using generic data source using table function.
there you can select the which field you required
check the data in RSA3
BI STEPS: -
check the source system connection.
replicate the data source
create of find the master data object for text (including attr)
map the transformation
run the info package
create the DTP.
check the data in target object.
Thanks,
Phani.

Master data request id?

Hi all,
I need to check the values of the master data(attr) request by request. How to view the values of the master data(attr) of a particular request only?
or
can anyone tell me in which table the master data request id or request no. is stored?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Hi,
There are 2 scenarios for master data load
One is direct update and other if flexible update.
The request will show up in the manage of IO if is a flexible update of master data.
The request will not show up in the manage of IO if you are doing a direct update of master data. In that case goto the infopackage > On the top left hand side there is the monitor button click .this will show RSMO for that infopackage. See the header tab.It and you will get all details about your load request.
Or simply goto RSMO and filter using target name and you can see the loads.
RSMONICDP--Contains the request-id number by data target
RSREQICODS--Gives the list(ODS/CUBE) including the requests which are compressed
also try RSRREPDIR
Hope this helps u..

To implement MDM without MDM box...I dont think its possible. Never heard of that.
In BI, We can clean our master data through some routines, though.

Delta for cubes & master data

Bonjour,
I am a bit confused about some concepts of BW. Hope to get clarified here in good ole SDN.
1. Infocube is said to be ADD only. Yet, its data deletable eg. by request. How do I interpret this? Is it deletable only by requests? How about selectively as detail as single records? How about field level deletion (instead of a whole record)?
2. Is a 'new' image (rec mode "N") = 'after' image (rec mode " ")?
3. How is Repair Request compared to Pseudo Delta? Are they both only and must selectively delete by month / time char only? Can either be deleted by single records?
4. Master data is said to be usually overwritten. How is it so? What Delta type(s) are we talking about by this? How is Master data aggregated? Can it be? What does serialization and duplicate master data processing mean? How can master data prevent duplicates?
What's the usual and possible practices to manage delta for Master data attr,txt,hier?
Awaiting your reply.
best regards,
Pascal Gabin

1. Infocube is said to be add only because it is different from ODS or master data where you can 'merge or overwrite' data. When 2 records are loaded into an Infocube, if they are different in any one field, they will be stored as 2 seperate records (in the fact table of the cube). Whereas if 2 records are loaded into an ODS, and the records are similar in terms of the key of the ODS, only 1 record will be created in the ODS with the second records details overwriting the first if there is a clash.
From a cube you can delete data either selectively by specifying ranges or delete an entire request. You cannot do field level deletions.
2. No they are different. Let us say there is a record with 2 fields Customer and Amount being loaded into an ODS. First record loaded is (Pascal, 10.00). Then there will be a New-image record (Pascal, 10.00,N). After this a second record (Pascal, 15.00) is loaded. After this there will be 3 records.
Pascal, 10.00, New Image
Pascal, -10.00, Before Image
Pascal, 15.00, After Image.
All 3 add to 15.00.
3. Not able to understand your question. Deletion of all requests are I think the same. Selective deletion can be done only for a Infocube not for an ODS. See answer 1.
4. Master data usually changes very little. For eg, a customer 100013 is always 100013. Once in a while his phone number might change. When it does, it is picked up by the delta and the existing record in BW is overwritten. There is only one type of delta for master data. Not sure of what is the exact name. Master data is aggregated by specifying the key to the master data table.
The best practice is to maintain delta only for large master data objects (Customers, Materials etc). For all of these SAP has provided delta-enabled datasources which can be used. For the rest, full-uploads suffice.

Master data error while loading data

Dear Masters
Im getting below error while loading delta update for master data(Attr) through infopackage to only PSA. Im in BI 7.0
When I checked Error message, Im getting 2 errors. They are
1) Update mode R is not supported by the extraction API
2) Error in source system.
I checked source system is fine. im getting data also in RSA3
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.
Procedure
How you remove the error depends on the error message.
Note
If the source system is a Client Workstation, then it is possible that the file that you wanted to load was being edited at the time of the data request. Make sure that the file is in the specified directory, that it is not being processed at the moment, and restart the
Could you please help me to resolve this issue.

Process chains might fail if the data source is not in sync between the source and the BW system. In such a case, go to the 'Source Systems' in transaction RSA1, find the datasource, right click and select 'Replicate Datasources'. Once this is done, the transfer structure needs to be activated as well. To do this in production, run the report RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL with the source system name and the infosource name. This will activate the transfer structure.
NOTE: For master data using direct upload the infosource name is the name of the info object itself.

BPC 7.5 : Master Data Attribute mapping to PARENTH1

Hi,
I loaded G/L account master data attr/text and maintained some members manually. G/L account has the attribute G/L account group.
Can I populate the G/L account group data into PARENTH1 column? Please advise me whether it is possible or not.If it is possible please provide the steps.
Note : In ECC system G/L account hierarchy is not properly maintained.
Thanks
Prasad

Hi Nilanjan,
   Thanks for your inputs.
I'm working on BPC 7.5 and SP04.
I have G/L account hierarchy in BI system. I tried to load G/L account master data attr/text into BPC and successfully loaded but hierarchy node ID's and description are missed. I followed the below steps.
1) Loaded master attr,text and hierarchy data from ECC to BI and activated the master data.
2) Used the below transformation and conversion file.
3) Selected the hierarchy in selecetion in data package while loading data into BPC.
Transformation File:
*OPTIONS
FORMAT = DELIMITED
HEADER = YES
DELIMITER = TAB
AMOUNTDECIMALPOINT = .
SKIP = 0
SKIPIF = 177000
VALIDATERECORDS=YES
CREDITPOSITIVE=YES
MAXREJECTCOUNT=
ROUNDAMOUNT=*MAPPING
*MAPPING
ID=ID
*CONVERSION
ID=ACCT_ID_MD.xls
G/L Account compounded to chart of accounts (10+4) and has total length 14 and hierarchy node ID's have length 32.
I used the below conversion file.
External                                                         Internal

Please suggest anyone how can I load node ID's and description.
Note: I followed the same above process for 0PROFIT_CTR and 0COSTCETER and successfully loaded master, text and hierarchy data.
