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 !

BPC Master Data Deletion through ABAP code

Hi All,
I have a requirement of deleting the orphan nodes for one of the dimension in BPC using ABAP code.
Please let me know any standard program or classes for deleting the master data from dimension.

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

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.
Dave

"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!

Nilima

Identifing duplicate master data records using the MDM Import Manager

hi all
I read the Topis "How to identify duplicate master data records using the MDM Import Manager</b>"
i tried to create import maps and to set rules. but when i import them it creates the new vendor records for each rule with rest of the fields blank.
when i import vendor data all the three fields i.e Match rate , match type and match group are blank.
My Question is :
I am getting vendor data from SAP R/3.
In which source (in lookup xml file or data xml file) do i have to include these above three fields and how all the rules will be reflected in repository?

Hi Sheetal
Here we go when do you Import any data (vendor master) please follow the following steps;
1. First of all apply the map to the source data
2. In the Match Record tab there are 3 possiblities
   a.[Remote Key] : Checks the current source rec with
     repository along with all the fields - This is
     default
   b.Remove [Remote key] - by double click the same; and
     choose any single fields like Vendor Number or
     name - Then the current record will be matched
     with the repository based on the field.
   c.Instead of single field you can choose combination
     also.
3. Based on the Match results, match class will be set
   automatically;
   a. None
   b. Single
   c. Multiple
4. Then Match Type
    a.Exact-All the individual value matches are Equal.
    b.Partial-At least one value match is Equal and at least one Undefined; no value matches are Not Equal.
    c.Conflict-At least one value match is Equal and at least one value match is Not Equal.
5. then chek the Import status and Execute the import.
Hope this helps you.
cheers

Can we restrict a master data characterstic using another master data chara

Hi All,
Can we restrict a master data characterstic using another master data characterstic, if they were both compounded together. There are two fields viz.., A,B in r/3 master data table in which A and B combinely serve as a key. In BW side i have created a master data object for A and compuded object B ot it. So that i am getting all the data from r/3 table. But in query designer when i am trying to restrict object A values by object B, in a structure i am not getting any data. If i do same out of structure i am getting data in report. Please help in overcoming this problem.
Regards,
Rajkandula

Hi,
Yes it should display data, but it is not displaying. If i am doing the same restriction out side of a structure i am getting data. But whilr trying to do so, i am not getting that. The reason why i am bothering about structure is 'Objext B have 10 different values and i want 10 coloumns in report in whicg Obj A must display respective data when i restrict it by B' , whicg i can do this only if i use structure else i can't restrict B that many times .
I hope u got my problem and plz give help me in this.

Rajkandula

Changing Field Label length for Data Element using ABAP code.

Hi Experts,
We have a scenario where we have to update the maximum length of the various Field Labels (Short, Medium, Long..) for a Data Element using ABAP code.
Does anyone know how to do this ? Is there a Function Module available for this purpose ?
Appreciate your valuable inputs.

Hi ,
Use the view
DD03M
Give
TABNAME as table name,
DDLANGUAGE = EN / sy-langu
and order by position. (for correct sequencing)
You will get description of the fields (short,medium, long etc). You will also get the length and other details.

Master data sharing using ext. star schema

Hi,
I have undetrstood the concept of extended star schema.
I understand,
One of the advantages of extended star schema is, that the master data can be shared, meaning, since the master data is stored separately, other star schema's can also share this master data provided it is of the same relevance( with same infoobjects used in this star schema).
Confirm if my understanding is right and if right,
Any idea or suggestion how to demonstrate this ?
Points will be given for good answers.
thanks.
bwlearner

Hey,
If u could map this with programming.
MASTER DATA Tables are like GLOBAL declaration and InfoCubes (Fact Tables) are like LOCAL declaration. Any number of IncoCubes can access one particular Master Data Table.
Assume Sales data coming from 5 regions. Here 0CUSTOMER & its attributes will update the same Master Data Table. The data fields will be stored in the Infocube. So all the 5 InfoCubes access the same Master Data tables using the Dimension & SID tables.
Clear ?
Best Regards....

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.
Regards,
Durgesh.
