Master Data Deletion problem

Hi
i am trying to delete master data for 0STRGE_BIN,ZSUTYPE..i am getting this message:Some master data cannot be deleted.if i say ok then ok this message is coming.The system is unable to delete all of the specified master data,because some of it is still in use. (See log:Object RSDMD, sub-object MD_DEL ). may i know the reason.
Thanks in Adavance.

Gona

Hi, In your case your Master data or the master data attributes (if present) are getting used in Some info Cube (or data target).
What you can do, go to the object, then click on the "where used". This will give you the detail of the targets where your Object is still used.
Either remove this Object from The cube or just delete the data of the cube you will be able to delete the complete master data once again.
Note: Please load the master data first and then load the cubes(Transactional laods).
Hope this helps you.

  • Master Data Deletion

    Hello Experts,
    I know this is not a new topic to be posted in forum as we can find lots of threads on the same. But i tried different ways and could not succeed and so there is no other way except to post what i did and get suggestions from you all. Any help will be greatly appreciated and rewarded.
    Now coming to the scenario where i am in: There are two invalid master data values in SID table (no attributes for this, => SID and value). I tried deleting the two values
    1. using functional module RSDDCVER_USAGE_MDATA_BY_SID. But this resulted in short dumps with messsage INVALID TAB NAME
    2. using program RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA: Though i could delete values in development in few seconds, this program took more than 3hrs and did not complete. When i checked the process in SM66, it was deleting unused dimension Ids in other dimension of infocube in which this object is being used.
    3. i could not try "maintain master data" of infoobject from RSA1 since i dont have authorization to do it.
    i think the only way is to delete using a custom program. Any thoughts, any experiences please share and do let me know in case of any details.
    thanks,
    Madhav

    Hi Madhav,
    I don't have a specific answer for you, but I had a similar problem with master data deletion.  It was with 0Vendor and I just wanted to delete all the unused entries, but running the RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA program would always give a short dump.  Same think if I tried to delete using the Delete Master Data button on InfoObject.
    Applying the latest SPs worked for me.  We are on BW 3.5 (NW2004), SP 18.
    Good Luck.

  • Issue with master data deletion

    Hi,
    In one of our report, there is a filter option on country.The help values on this filters shows some country codes along with country Text values.These codes were once used before the codes with text were maintained.We dont want these codes to appear in the selection options.
    Filter looks like this :
    AE
    AZ
    Austria
    Australia
    B
    Belgium
    Now, once the texts were maintained, we deleted the data from cube and reloaded it however, the filter option still shows those codes.
    I checked in the cube entries and these codes are no where used.
    These codes are however, still lying in the dimension table.
    how can we get rid of these country codes in the selection option.
    Query already have option of having only posted values in Infoprovider as selection input.
    I hav tried RSRV elementary test "Entries not used in dimension table" n this didnt work.
    Any clue ?
    Regards,
    Tapish

    Dbl click 0COUNTRY infoobject, under 'Business Explorer' tab, select Only Values in InfoProvider' for 'Query Def Filter Value selection' & 'Query Execution Filter Value selection'. See whether this works.

  • Master Data Deletion using ABAP

    Does anybody have an idea of which function is called when master data is deleted?
    I would like to automate master data deletion
    Any suggestion is welcome!
    Thanks
    Ioan

    Hi Ioan !
    Try to look at the FM 'RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA'(in the pgm LRSDMDU12)...but pay attention to the other elements that the system certainly checks in order to complete this type of process !

  • "master data deletion for requisition" before master data loading

    Hello Gurus,
             in our bw syetem , for   process chains for loading  master infoobjects, all include "u201C master data deletion for requisition" ABAP
    process  except for one process chain. my question is:
           why that process chain for master data loading is different from others as for lacking "master data deletion for requisition" in it?
    so it does not matter if you include " master data deletion for requisition" ABAP  process in process chain for master data loading ?
    Many thank.

    Hi,
    ABAP Process means some ABAP program is being executed in this particular step.
    It's possible that for all of your process chains except for that one requirement was to do some ABAP program processing.
    You can check which program is executed by following below process:
    Open your process chain in planning view -> Double click on that particular ABAP process -> Here you can see program name as well as program variant.
    Hope this helps!

  • Master Data Deletion in SAP BW

    Hi,
    We are having HR Master Data in BW - 0EMPLOYEE. User has deleted some of the personel numbers in the source system (SAP HR system) as the contract of the employee was ended.
    My problem here is that the Personnel numbers are still existing in SAP BW - 0EMPLOYEE master data. Eventhough when i am trying to delete these un wanted personel numbers in maintain masterdata screen, that are not allowing me to delete as they have used some other placess in Transaction data.
    Can you please suggest me, how to delete this specific Master Data in SAP-BW?
    Best regards,

  • Master data access problem

    Hi All
    I  have a master data object  ..it is a z object where it has customer as the key and  the attributes are salesoffice, sales dist and sales group.
    I am using this master data object in one of my req where  in the transaction data i get only the customer and from there i am pulling the sales office,sales dist and sales group from this master data object using the option  READ MASTER DATA at the transformation level in the Rule details.
    The problem is that i am able to get the data for  all the customer's except  5 customers but when i get in to the master data and check the sales off, sales dist and region is maintained there, but still it is not picking only for those 5 customers and for rest of the customers it is working fine..
    so i thought i should be some master data problem and i deleted that master data using delete master data option with out sid's and reloaded it again and after that i reloaded the transaction data back..but still it is having the same problem but at the object level the data is there...
    Can any one suggest me as to wat would the problem can be?
    Please i appreciate your quick repaonses.
    Regards
    Shilpa

    Hi Shilpa
    May i suggest an alternate solution?
    Instead of reading values into your infoprovider using Read master data, you can enable the attributes as navigational attributes and include them in your infoprovider. You will be able to see them in reporting and also use filters or variables on the attributes too.
    You can also check if the attribute change run for the loaded master data is done before trying to run the report.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Master Data Deletion (Very Urgent)

    Hi Guys,
    What might b the problem, when "not all the master data can be deleted".
    Please respond soon

    Hi,
    you cant delete the master data if its being used by any infoproviders or by a query by including or excluding a value of material. Make sure to delete the master data from all the places then only the system would allow to change the char. I know its pain. backdoor approach, create a ABAP program to delete all the data in the related master data tables S/P/X
    If you have deleted the master data and still not able to change the conversion, activate the object.
    During activation you will get a screen to repair and click that and it will be activated.
    But make sure, you delete all the data in the info provider that uses this obj

  • Master Data Deletion - Data used in query

    Hi all,
    I work with BI 7. I noticed a strange thing. I wanted to delete data from a master data object, but the operation is not allowed. If I see the logs for "where used list", I see a query. I deleted data from DSO objects and infocubes, and I thought it was enough.
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hello Gianluca,
    To be able to delete master data, no transaction data must exist for this master data, the master data must no longer be used as attribute value, hierarchies to this master data must not exist, and it must not be used in a query.
    If you look at a record in the SID table, you can check the usage flag DATAFL. If the value is X, it is used or has been used by another BW oject.
    But to answer your question, do delete the master data, it must no longer be used in a query.
    Best Regards,
    Vincent

  • Master data deleted dispite it is used in other Cubes

    Hello everybody,
    I deleted master data by the classic way: right-click on the characteristic --> delete master data --> with sid.
    (not with other ways!!!)
    Thinking that the system will not delete the master data that is used in Cubes.
    I reloaded new master data.
    After a complaint from a power user that he cannot make a drill down with this characteristic in one report, i begin to investigate.
    Firstly, i tested all the reports where this characteristic is used and all the reports did the same error.
    After i went is to display data of one of the infocube where this characteristic is used and when i select this characteristic for the output, nothing returns as result.
    After that i checked the values of the characteristic sid's in the cubes and i see that the range of the char sid's in the cube do not correspond to the range of the sid's in the sid table of the characteristic.
    In fact, none of the characteristic sid of the cube where present in the sid table of the characteristic.
    Why? probably because when i deleted the master data, the system deleted all the records, but why also those that are present in the cube?
    When i go to SLG1 and select the correct Object,  as message for this deletion: "All entered data was deleted"
    Any suggestion, advise is welcome.
    Thanks
    Regards,

    Hi,
    The way you have used, I would expect that it will not delete the used master data in other cube. If possible reload your master data but I think this will not resolve your issue as new SID values will get created. Just give a try.

  • Data Load Error  due to Master data deletion

    Hi,
    While doing the transactional data load I am getting following error.
    +Master data/text of characteristic ZFOCUSGRP already deleted Message no RSDMD138   +
    ZFOCUSGRP  is  an  InfoObject (with Text). Last week we changed the source system from CRM to R/3 during that time we deleted all the Texts in ZFOCUSGRP manually from the table.
    This error is not happening always some time it load properly. I executed the RSRV for  InfoObject ZFOCUSGRP and InfoCube still this error happening.
    Is there any way to fix this error?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Delta enabled master data - Deletion of data sets

    Hello,
    is it possible to automatically delete a certain data set of a master data bearing InfoObject which is delta enabled ? Does a delta load for master data InfoObjects  allow to fully delete a certain data set?
    Example:
    Delta Master InfoObject: Z_Test
    Attributes: Z_Name, Z_Region, ....
    Data sets:
    (1) 12345, Name1, Region1, ....
    (2) 23456, Name2, Region2, ....   (this data set should be completely deleted)
    (3) 34567, Name3, Region3, ...
    Expected result:
    (1) 12345
    (2) 34567
    I just want to know whether the deletion can be performed through a delta data load or not?
    Thanks in Advance.
    Marco

    Hi Marco,
    Welcome to SDN!!
    You can goto RSA1 -> Info-object -> maintain master data and delete the unwanted records and loads the ones you need. If the no. of records are more then you may need to write an ABAP program. But before all this deletion make sure the master data is not used in any other Data target.
