Hi Everyone,
can any one tell me, How do we use attributes of master data in update rules..need syntax for using attributes of customer.... like comm_structure-/bic/......etc
post code is attribute of customer, How do I use it in update rule
thanks

Hi!
if you have customer as attribute in your Infosource and Postcode as acharecteristic in your data target then you just need to select ther 3rd type of update rule "MAster data attribute of" and specifxy 0Cusotomer beside

How to use Master Data Attribute of in Update Rule's Formula

Hi experts.
In update rule, there is an option to use Master Data Attribute of. However, due to user requirement, I need to use that in Formula instead.
Field to update:
Profit Center
Logic:
If Cost Center is empty
Then Profit Center
Else
Master Data Attribute of Cost Center
I use the following formula at the moment but it is not 100% correct.
IF( Cost Center = '', Profit Center, Cost Center )
Appreciate if anyone could help me out.
Thanks!

Hi,
The easier thing to do will be to use a Update Routine.
Logic will be as follows :-
If Cost center iss initial.
Result = Profit Center
else.
result = Cost center.
endif.

Map My Update Rule from a Master Data Attribute

Hello experts,
I haven't tried this scenario yet, hope you can help me, the Issue is this
I have 2 InfoObjects ZPSCHRCHY and 0PROFIT_CTR from InfoCube WBS cost and allocations I want both the InfoObjects to be mapped to 0PROFIT_CTR attribute of 0WBS_ELEMT master data object, I have tried the Master Data Attribute but only 0PROFIT_CTR is an attribute of the Master Data.how can I mapped ZPSCHRCHY and 0PROFIT_CTR to 0PROFIT_CTR?, Is creating a start routine for it must be used? Thank you very much

Can routine replace "master data attribute of" update rule for performance?

Hi all,
We are working on CRM-BW data modeling, We have to look up agent master data for agent level and position for each transaction data. So now we are using "Master data attribute of" update rule. Can we use routine instead of "Master data Attribute of" ? Will it improve the loading performance? Since we have to load 1 lack transaction records , where as we have 20,000 agent details in agent master data.My understanding is, for each record in data package the system has to go to master data table and bring the agent details & store in cubes. Say one agent created 10 transactions, then this option "master data attribute of" will read the agent master data 10 times even though we are going to pull same details for all 10 transactions from master data. if we use routine, we can pull the agent details& storing in internal table removing all duplicates and in update routine we can read the internal table.
Will this way improve performance?
let me know if you need further info?
Thanks in advance.
Arun Thangaraj

Hi,
your thinking is absolutely right!
I don't recommend to use the standard attribute derivation since it will perform a SELECT to the database for EACH record.
Better implement a sorted table in your start routine; fill it with SELECT <fields> FROM <master_data_table> FOR ALL ENTRIES OF datapak WHERE OBJVERS = 'A' etc...
In your routine perform a READ itab ... BINARY SEARCH.... I believe that you won't be able to go faster...
hope this helps...

Using "Master Data Attribute of" in the Update Rule

Hi,
In my update rule of, i want to replace the master data attribute of my characteristic instead of using its source characteristic. For example. InfoObject ZSTORECODE has an attribute ZSTORENAME. My objective is to use the Store Name instead of a Store Code.
I initially thought of using "Master Data Attribute of" in the update rules. However, I always end of with having an error of "No Values."

Hope you guys can help me with this!

Is it possible to update master data attributes from an ODS?

HELLO ALL,
we have records coming into our ods like the following:
costcenter1, subcostcentera, subcostcenterb, manager responsible, costs (kf).
This is a custom flat file load from a legacy system.
We would like to just create an update rule from the ODS to the cost center mater data characteristic attributes.
Is this possible?
thank you

Yes its possible to update the master data attributes from an ODS.
Define your master data characteristics as a infoprovider.
Create a update rule on Characteristic with ODS as a source and do general mapping.
For step by step, pls refer..

Cant fully load updated data to Master data attribute

Hi BW expert,
I meet an issue here, I am not able to load updated data to master data attribute. My loading selection is based on employee number range.
e.g employee number 00001 to 10000
However the data is successfully loaded to master data but lot of the attribute data are not updated. e.g 056, 057, 098, 0100.
I checked in PSA, there is no data updated for the attribute.
I checked in RSA3 in R/3, there are attribute data extracted.
Please advice, why attribute data is not updated when I load it in a range number. The attribute only work when I load one employee number.
Thanks.

Wesley Koo

Update Master Data Attributes yellow in DTP

Hi All,
After loading the master data DTP, the request becomes greeen but the "Update Master Data Attributes" step is still yellow. Let me know how to overocome this error
Thanks,
Sathya

Hi,
This is a master data full load and it updates more than 1 lakh records. Technically the Overall and technical status of my DTP request becomes Green but when i go to the details tab and drill down the data package the "Update Master Data Attributes" still remains yellow so i dont think my load will update the attributes for my info object successfully.
Is there a solution to overcome or did anyone face this similar issue?
Thanks

Updating Master data attributes through BPS

Hi All,
Can we modify master data attributes via BPS? Like we have some Attribute characteristics for 'vendor' say 'class(good/bad/ok)' and we want that to be updated via BPS (not from R/3) then how it can be achived?
Please help by explaining this.

Hi,
Create two variables one for vendor and other for status (variable of type attribute), give both the variables in the folder. User will select the vendor and the attribute status value in selections. Create an exit planning function to update the attribute.
Import parameters
i_area type upc_y_area
i_variable type upc_y_variable
i_chanm type upc_y_chanm
Export parameters
eto_charsel type upc_yto_charsel
tables
i_t_attributes structure rsd_s_iobjnm optional
i_t_data structure rsndi_s_chavl optional
In the code, Read the above two variable values selected by user. Then delete the existing entry of MD by calling the function RSNDI_MD_DELETE.
Now update the master data with the new attribute value selected by the user in the variable by calling the function
RSNDI_MD_ATTRIBUTES_UPDATE. After this activate the master data by calling RSDMD_MD_ACTIVATE.
Hope this solves the issue.

Error while uploading master data attributes thru flat file

while uploading master data attributes thru flat file i am facing the below errow. can nyone let me know plz.
Error 8 when compiling the upload program: row 227, message: Data type /BIC/CCDEIO_MAT5_ATTR was found in a new

This just means that you changed the transfer rules/transfer structure and have not refreshed the workbench yet. The infopackage data hasn't been updated ... this is similar to a datasource update, where you need to replicate to make sure BW knows the latest version.
The best way to correct this error is to reload RSA1. Every time I make a change to the tr/ts, I always run /nrsa1 to refresh the workbench.

Error when scheduling the infopackage for loading Master data attributes

Hi,
Iam getting the following error message when scheduling this Master data Attributes ZIP_0PLANT_ATTR_FULL..( Flexible update of Master data info objects)..
In Data load monitor error i got this following error message.
Error message when processing in the Business Warehouse
Diagnosis
An error occurred in the SAP BW when processing the data. The error is documented in an error message.
System response
A caller 01, 02 or equal to or greater than 20 contains an error meesage.
Further analysis:
The error message(s) was (were) sent by:
Update rules
Thanks

HI,
A caller 01, 02 or equal to or greater than 20 contains an error meesage This is an Idoc error. Please check the Idocs :
1) SM37 job log (In source system if load is from R/3 or in BW if its a datamart load) (give request name) and it should give you the details about the request. If its active make sure that the job log is getting updated at frequent intervals.
Also see if there is any 'sysfail' for any datapacket in SM37.
2) SM66 get the job details (server name PID etc from SM37) and see in SM66 if the job is running or not. (In source system if load is from R/3 or in BW if its a datamart load). See if its accessing/updating some tables or is not doing anything at all.
3) RSMO see what is available in details tab. It may be in update rules.
4) ST22 check if any short dump has occured.(In source system if load is from R/3 or in BW if its a datamart load)
5) Check in SM58 and BD87 for pending tRFCs and IDOCS.
Once you identify you can rectify the error.
If all the records are in PSA you can pull it from the PSA to target. Else you may have to pull it again from source infoprovider.
If its running and if you are able to see it active in SM66 you can wait for some time to let it finish. You can also try SM50 / SM51 to see what is happening in the system level like reading/inserting tables etc.
If you feel its active and running you can verify by checking if the number of records has increased in the data tables.
SM21 - System log can also be helpful.
Thanks,....

Transofmration : Master data attribute

Hello,
I am on NW 2004S BI and ECC 6.0.
In the transformation rule types, i can not find "Master data attribute of" .
If this is the case in this version,in the infocube, how to load the data for a particular IO, which is an attribute of another IO ?
In the older versions, in the update rules, i can select either source, constant, master data attribute of,routine etc ..
Any advice?
Regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
We have "Master Data Attribute" as a Rule type of Transformation in NW2004S BI also.
Where in the previous version BW3.x you have option to create the Master Data Read Rule only between
DataTarget to DataTarget
or
Infosource to DataTarget.
But, The New Enhancement of NW2004S BI is, Even you can read the Master Data Attribute in Transformation have builded between DataTarget (InfoCube or ODS) and DataSource also.
How to assign the InfoObject for Master Data Read?
Select Target Field.
Select the source InfoObject from where you want to read Master Data.
When you have to choose the "Master Data Read" as the Rule Type. Then You will get the entry block next to Rule Type.
Click F4, then it will give the Attribute automatically.
Hope this helps you.

Vamsi

Define transfromation-As master data attribute

Hello experts,
I have a 3.5 data flow DS> TR> CS-> UR-> ODS.
In this flow there is a field 0WBS element mapped to POSID from source in TR and in the UR its a straight map to 0WBS element in the ODS.
I also have a ZFIELD in the ODS which has an UR as Master data attribite of above 0WBS element.
Problem faced:
Now I need to map the same in a new BI 7.0 System using transfromation (Creation of DSO done exactly as in 3.5 ).
DS--> TRANS-> DSO
Looking at the transfer rules and the Update rules I incorporated all the same as in the 3.5 system.
Now I face only problem with the ZFIELD taking master Data attribute of 0WBS ELEMWNT when I check my transfromations.
In the Transfromation 7.0 I directly mapped POSID to my 0WBS element and then for ZFIELD I am mapping to have the rule as attribute of 0WBS_ELMENT in the rule details.
I am getting the following error.
InfoObject 0WBS_ELEMT cannot be used to read master data
Message no. RSTRAN066
Diagnosis
InfoObject 0WBS_ELEMT does not have the correct attributes to read master data for the target field.
System Response
The entry is deleted and the rule is invalid.
Procedure
Enter an InfoObject that has the InfoObject from the target as an attribute.
When I check my 0WBS info obj I see my ZFIELD is available as the attribute..
Could anyone help me to fix this transfromation.
Regards,

Hi,
The scenarion you explained is very much possible in BI 7.0. There must be something which might be missing.
