Master data conflict when merging 2 BW systems
Hello All,
We are currently merging 2 BW systems (one existing system and creating the objects of the other system in the new system) which are fed from 2 different source R3 systems. We have conflicts in master data number ranges between the 2 R3 systems. We explored the option of compounding , however in this case we need to delete the existing data in the BW system which is not plausible.
Have any of dealt with such a situation, if so please advise on the solution.Thanks in advance.

Hi KK,
We thought of that, but doing tht would result confusion to the end user as the material number would look different.
Thanks and regards,
Ashwin G

Master data from combination of multiple system source
Hi All,
We have a situation wherein we have to load master data from 2 different source systems. For the same Business areas ( Ex. SD, FI, etc). with most probably with same values. Since the master data is overwrite, the last load value will only be available.
Please help me out in the precautions / design change need to be done in the existing system.
Regards,
N P ReddyHi NPR,
For this the recommended scenario is using Source System Compounding for the InfoObjects. See here for full info:

Master Data conflict between different sources
Hello Experts,
We have conflict in Master data which is getting extracted from different R3 systems.
So we have maintained the transcodifiction by adding Prefix ID of logical system ID for the second R/3 system where we have a confict in the Master data. (Say in my case we have this for 0Material, 0Vendor, 0Customer).
We have done this transcodification at the Transfer rule level by maintaining a routine for both the Attribut information and text information with some codifidition. And its working fine in Production.
Now we have stuck with the Hierarchy information for this?
As in the case of Attr and Text we have option to write a routine at the transfer rule level but we dont have the same for Hierarchy!!!!
So please guide me as to what needs to be done for the Hierarchy level transcodification. (We are not maintaining this routine at the Object level but we are maintaing this at transfer rule level because of some reasons).
Help me with the solution!
Thanks
Raman
Edited by: Raman R on Mar 31, 2009 8:04 AMAre you maintaining hierarchy manually or loading via flat file ???
When you maintain you will have access to your transcoded master data hence you wil be able to maintain.
When you load from flat files you need to maintain it appropriately.
P.S : Didn't you go with compounding concept of sourcesystem or logsys to separate master data ??

Layout module master data sending to F&R system
Hi Friends,
When interface is sending layout module master data to F&R system, getting error message 'FRE_MD_LAYOUT_SEND PROCESSING DELTA E Sending release profiles - System Failure:' in FRE_UI t code.
When i am re-transmitting those backup files again error is coming 'Error during retransmission'.
When i debugged the program found out the file name format is not showing proper in SAP, the filename showing for layout module interface is '20120208204837', according to program it should be in .DAT format but in SAP not showing & file at OS level is in .DAT format.Hi,
here is more detailled information. The error message is issued in function module FRE_LAYMOD_SEND. This function module is called by the re-send function module FRE_LAYMOD_RESEND only if there is data to send. That means the data within the backup file has been read successfully before!!! You can assume the error occurs in the system connection between ERP and F&R. (ERP tries to send the data but cannot send successfully due to some missing or erroneous settings within system connection.)
Let the system administration check the system connection settings.
As well have a look to the F&R Wiki page within SAP Community Network. Some documentation is about the system connection SAP ERP and SAP F&R. http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SCM/SAPForecastingandReplenishment%28FRE%29

Master Data Loading from APO--- BW System
Hi Experts,
I am loading master data from the APO to bW System,after loading data into the BW System ,I found the number of data records are mismatching
ex:APO (8340) --->BW (9445)
and that to I tried to delet the data in InfoObject,
only some records are deleting
and one more doubt
in APO i have info object ZA9MATNR CHAR 40
With Conversion Routine PRODU
in BW i have the same info object ZA9MATNR CHAR 40 with Conversion Routine ALPHA.
and I have checked the Check box in transfer rules also,may be becoz of this I am getting more records.
Could any body help me
Thanks in Advance...
Regards,
Nagamani.Hi,
Ideally it is impossible to get the increased count of data records when you load it into BW unless you are using the RETURN TABLE concept.
Normally the record count decreases with the records with same keys gets overwritten/added.
Coming to your second question, ALPHA conversion routine has nothing to do with the record count. It appends the ZEROS to the value coming in that InfoObject. For example, if the lenght of the object is 5 and data is coming only in 3 digits, it will append the ZEROS to make its length 5.
Hope this info helps you.

Error when generating master data routines when activating infoobject
Hello Gurus,
I had an issue with one of my info object.
I Created the one Custom InfoObject with Just 5 Char without any masterdata and used that in many cubes. we promoted the objects and cube to test and production systems. just couple of days back we can see the InfoObject went to inactive status even though the version is active(not sure how it happend). This is only happens in our test system and production is working fine. when i try to activate the InfoObject again the test system it gives me an error
Characteristic XXXXX: Error when generating master data routines. Tried to correct in RSD5 etc. Checked in RSRV everything is fine. Tried to re-promote the object from Development system. The transport also failed with the same error even though it is in unconditional mode.
Can you please suggest me what are the options.
i cannot delete the object as it is used in many cubes which is having data.
Appreciate your quick response.
Thanks,
Bhaskara Rao.If your Prod is working fine, it should work in test too.
Did it ever worked in test after transport?
Is it possible some one tried to change something in test? If yes, you will get error when you will try to re-transport it as new transport can't find the previous structure.
You may try to activate the IO using FM RSDG_IOBJ_ACTIVATE

Integration connections to bring master data into APO and BW system.
Hi All,
Can somebody give step by stip activities to be done FOR creating integration connection for following requriment.
1) To bring master data from R3 System to APO system through BI CUBES using BI type connection
2) APO/R3 type connection R3 system to APO system.
RegardsNikhil,
Request you to let me know how can basis person helps in this.
If this is an existing system, the applications team (APO and BW) will not require much assistance from you. You can mostly sit back and watch them do all the work.
I suggest that you read the help link in its entirety provided by expert Datta. Much of the info there is helpful for both solutions.
For the APO interface (question 2 in your original post) there is a complete step-by-step guide provided by SAP. Check these two docs out.
http://help.sap.com/bp_scmv250/BBLibrary/Documentation/B02_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_DE.doc
http://help.sap.com/bp_scmv250/BBLibrary/Documentation/B05_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_DE.doc
If you are being asked to select from one of the two scenarios you outlined, the standard Core interface is by far the simpler to implement. Plus, it has the advantage that SAP will support you when something goes wrong.
The BW solution is different, in that the developer (you?) MUST have detailed specifications before he can proceed. Which master data? At what organizational levels? How often refreshed? What will be the ultimate use of the data, and how must it be stored? Where will it be stored? How to deal with inconsistencies? Etc etc. SAP support will only solve technical problems in your solution, they won't solve errors of design or logic, unless you happen to get a very accommodating support person when you raise your message.
But in case a basis person need to create RFC how can it be done for above scenario.
The instructions for creating all the RFC stuff is contained in the connectivity doc I cited above.

Master data from Multiple SAP source systems
Hi Gurus,
In my present project we are having an ECC6 and r/3 from which we need to extract master data.
ex: vendor
same vendor has different entities in the systems.
I am aware of the data inconsistency as it would be overwritten.
We don't want to use MDM,compounding or transfer duplicate records options.
MDM - not in use
Compounding - expensive Option
transfer duplicate records - not reliable
Merging r/3 in to ECC6 is also under consideration but it would be late 2010.
I am sure some of you might have been through this scenario and your help is appreciated and will be rewarded.
Thank you,
Ram.We went with Compounding option.
Can you justify Expensive ????
We compounded 0LOGSYS,infact you can use 0SOURCESYSTEM.
So that 0SOURCESYSTEM will have the server details.I mean your ECC6 or R3.
or
Some crude solution would be add some character to the beginning of your master data like from ECC 6 append E.
or
Have you heard of Consolidated infoobjects Concept.You can go with that too.
Hope this helps.

How to find the size of the master data objects in the BW system?
Hi,
We would like to understand the size of the master data tables overall for a specific source system (Logical name is Ex.ABCD, which supplies all master data to BW). Can you please advise the procedure to find out this?
Is there any table that will allows to see all the master data objects related to specific sources system so that we can find out that table size? Thanks.
For example, we have many Texts, Hier & Attributes.
0COUNTRY_TEXT
0REGION_TEXT
0PERSON_ATTR
0MATERIAL_LPRH_HIER
Advance Thanks.
Edited by: BW USA on Feb 2, 2010 10:52 AMHi,
You can find out all the master data tales used in the BW system by
Tcode : SE11
Enter as /BIC/P* for master data tables and press F4 which gives list of master data tables currently used in BW system.
Similarly for Texts /BIC/T* and press F4
Similarly for Hierarchies /BIC/H-* press F4
and can know the size of the all tables.
Thanks,

Can I use export my SAP created master data in a non-SAP system?
Hello,
I am about to start a large integration solution with my SAP customer and they are concerned about licensing. What they want to do is export their GL, cost centre and WBS master data to an external system via integration (probably custom ABAP, or home built BAPI/RFC). The external system then uses the accounting data to determine where to post FI or MM documents back into SAP via custom ABAP, BAPI or maybe IDOC).
Is this OK? Are there any licensing issues with master data used externally and posted back in via custom ABAP or standard BAPIs/IDOCs?
Thank you in advance,
GeoffHello Geoff,
Yes, even indirect access to SAP transactions or data needs to be licensed properly with SAP. Your customer should contact their SAP account rep to discuss the exact use case. Indirect access via certain types of certified integrations may qualify for Platform User License pricing, but there is no generic answer, and it is best for the customer to discuss their specific case directly. -
Modeling the Data model when multiple source systems
Hi gurus,
i have a scenario where i am getting data from multiple source systems all R/3 but from different locatins.
my doubt is if i have to do reporting on the data available.
1. do i have to build seperate infocubes for each source systems or build seperate data designs for each source system .
2. How can i consolidate the different source sytems data into one and report sensibly as well as without loosing the source system identification.
thanks and regards
NeelHi all,
thanks for your focus, ya i am also thinking of have a flexible solution where in i can do it easily as well as we don't have much of complexcity, but wanted to try different options as well so that we can go for best one.
I thought of multiprovider at first when RafB suggested, and i agree with you as well Lilly, that data volume will be a problem, so keeping all this in view i want to build a solution where in it will be sensible as well as not confusing in reports ( i mean clear and readable reports)
[email protected]
please kindly forward any documents which might be helpful for me in this scenario
thanks and regards

Master data load from 2 source system
Hi all,
I am working on a project which has 2 source systems.
Now I have to load master data from 2 source systems without making 0LOGSYS as compunding
attribute. Because all the objects which i want to use compunding attribute are reference
objects for lot of other info objects. So, i dont want to change the business content
objects structure. Please guide me
ThanksHi,
I cube there is nothing to do with compounding attribute, it will be handled in MD IO level. As your requirement to separate the transaction happen in different source system then make add another info object as Zsource and make it as nav. attribute then design your report based on nav. attribute.
Note that this separation is only possible in Material Related transaction not for others.
Thanks

Transport of exported (master data) datasources to BW test system
Hi,
I exported datasources from 0ACCOUNT, namely, 80ACCOUNTM, 80ACCOUNTH, 80ACCOUNTT in a certain BW development system . I then assigned these to ZACCOUNT and loaded ZACCOUNT (master data, hierarchies and texts).
The transfer rules have a start routine and some other routines as well.
I need to know the following :
1. Is it possible to transport the generated datasources and the transfer rules and respective infopackages to a test system ?
2. If yes, how ?
Best regards,
Anuradha
PS : I know it can be done for exported datasources from ODS for example.Hi Maik,
Which object type do you think should be used to perform the selection?
We mánaged to exported datasource(not for 0account) transferred but the generated extract structure which belonged to $tmp did not get transported!
Thanks
