Master Data Reporting (DATA MODEL)

Hi,
I need to bring 15 to 20 more attributes of 0material/0matplant infoobject from R/3 to BW through 0matplant_attr/0material_attr extractors. Right now this extractors is brings 20 feilds and i dont know still how many i have to bring. So i need to take a decision wheather to enhance those feilds to the master data extractor or create a view on those tables and then generic data source out of it and load it to the infoobject.
Now the issue comes here, i need to do a reporting of those newly added attributes. What should be the best design, wheather to do a reporting on the infoobject or create a ODS on top of infoobject to do report. Daily we are loading these inforobjects as a full load and its around 2 million records.
Please help me out, Your input will be highly appriciated.
Thanks,
Lasya.

hi,
1. creating a view and use it for creating the generic datasource and do the loads. y cant you go for delta instead of loading full loads daily?
2. make the material and matplant as infoproviders(insert char as data target) and report on them. this is because ods will have to do activation and reporting on ods is not advisable.

Master Data Reporting........data flow model

I will be working on Master Data reporting. I heard that this can be done by loading data from a Datasource into an InfoObject. I would like to see a data model for this scenario. Can anyone help me on this?

Hi:
If you want to be more specific.
Open the InfoObject in change mode.
Go to Tab - Master Data/Texts
Here, if you go down, you will see a box for "InfoArea". Open this box and pick an InfoArea.
THis will do2 things.
1) It will allow you to create reports in the InfoObject.
2) It will allow you to Update the Master Data using any InfoSOurce.

Best Practice for Master Data Reporting

Dear SAP-Experts,
We face a challenge at the moment and we are still trying to find the right approach to it:
Business requirement is to analyze SAP Material-related Master Data with the BEx Analyzer (Master Data Reporting)
Questions they want to answer here are for example:
- How many active Materials/SKUs do we have?
- Which country/Sales Org has adopted certain Materials?
- How many Series do we have?
- How many SKUs below to a specific season
- How many SKUs are in a certain product lifecycle
- etc.
The challenge is, that the Master Data is stored in tables with different keys in the R/3.
The keys in these tables are on various levels (a selection below):
- Material
- Material / Sales Org / Distribution Channel
- Material / Grid Value
- Material / Grid Value / Sales Org / Distribution Channel
- Material / Grid Value / Sales Org / Distribution Channel / Season
- Material / Plant
- Material / Plant / Category
- Material / Sales Org / Category
etc.
So even though the information is available on different detail levels, the business requirement is to have one query/report that combines all the information. We are currently struggeling a bit on deciding, what would be the best approach for this requirement. Did anyone face such a requirement before - and what would be the best practice. We already tried to find any information online, but it seems Master data reporting is not very well documented. Thanks a lot for your valuable contribution to this discussion.
Best regards
Lukas

Pass a reference to the parent into the modal popup. Then you
can reference anything in the parent scope.
I haven't done this i 2.0 yet so I can't give you code. I'll
post if I do.
Oh, also, you can reference the parent using parentDocument.
So in the popup you could do:
parentDocument.myPublicVariable = "whatever";

In QA and Prod I see custom dictionaries in the Custom Reports Data Model, in Test there are none.
Dictionaries and Sevices marked Reportable are not showing up under Dictionaries and Services Dimensions.
I rerun the ETL and the scheduled tasks, but no luck. any suggestions?

Do you see any error when you run the ETL, i.e. the Java ETL embedded with the app server?

Withholding tax master data report changes in SAP FI

Hi All,
In our client according to new audit requirements improvements have to be done for the withholding tax report. According to the the requirements changes only functionality has to be added to the main selection screen of the withholding tax master data report.
Changes only functionality has to be added to the selection screen of the report, the report has to display changes made to the tax master data with in a range of period, this was achieved easily by making program changes. Only issue now is when we do it in development client its showing us properly but when we do it in production it is not working because when ever we do any configuration changes we do it in the development client and transport it to production client so the changes done to any configuration with respect to WHT are not recorded in the production environment as they are transported from development client.
So, we are unable to achieve this in production client, please help me out with this issue.
Tthanks in advance

hi

withholding tax exemption no, exemption from date, todate, Exemption reason,
as a master data it is saved in vendor master data > withholding tax accounting
but i need where it is saved in transaction data.
thanks

Basic question on Master data reporting on ODS

Hello All,
Recently I had a requirement, where they need to see the master data report ( with its attributes and attributes of attributes (transitive attribute)). Hence I loaded the master data on a ODS, to turn on the Navigational attributes.........
For e.g.: Requirement:
Master data : 0EQUIPMENT
ATTRIBUTE: 0SHIP_TO
ATTRIBUTE of ATTRIBUTE: 0SHIP_TO_REGION
Question: The report is working fine...... but I have a doubt whether the report (built on the ODS with no Key figures) will populate the master data for which there is no Key figures are maintained in ECC???
Please let me know your ideas and views.......

Hi........
I think it will be better if u use Infoobject to store master data......here also u can turn attributes to Navigational attribute....u can activate that infoobject as dataprovider and do the Reporting as you do it now for the ods object. .........The master data approach will additionally give you the possibility to add navigational attributes to fulfil more reporting requirements..........In RSA1.............Infoprovider >> Right click >> Insert that Infoobject as Infoprovider............

Debjani.......

What happened to Effort metrics in the Custom Reports data model?

What happened to Effort metrics in the Custom Reports data model?
Is there any way to use the Custom Reports data model to report on task effort? This was a metric captured in the Standard Reports Data Package, but looking through the metrics in the Custom Reports data model (particularly the ServiceTask Fact table) I do not see any effort related metric.

Ed is right. The Custom Report data model on pre-2007.1.1 did not contain task effort data but it is added as a fact to report against in the 2007.1.1 release. You will get this once you upgrade to 2007.1.1 and turn on the task effort entry setting in site administration.

Error while creating a new report data source in Sharepoint Document library

I installed SSRS(sql server 2012 SP1) in my sharepoint 2013 farm(single server installation).
I have installed SSRS addin for report also.
I created a document library and included the report data source content type, report builder report and report builder model content types. On click of any of these content types i get the below error.
"new Document requires a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation-compatible application and web browser. To add document to document library, click on the 'Upload' button."
I am using windows 7 64-bit operation system with Google chrome and IE 8 64 bit.
Any help would be appreciated.

Rakesh, is this an SSRS question?
This doesn't look like Power View.

Getting 401 error while creating a Report Data Source with MOSS 2010 Foundation

I have setup SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services with SharePoint 2010 Foundation in SharePoint integrated mode. SharePoint Foundation is in machine 1 whereas SQL Server 2008 R2 and SSRS Report Server are in machine 2. While configuring Reporting
Services - Sharepoint integration, I have used Authentication Mode as "Windows Authentication" (I need to use Kerberos).
My objective is to setup a Data Connection Library, a Report Model Library, and a Reports Library so that I can upload a Report Data Source, some SMDLs, and a few Reports onto their respective libraries.
While creating the top level site, "Business Intelligence Center" was not available for template selection since SharePoint Foundation is being used. I therefore selected "Blank Site" as the template.
While creating a SharePoint Site under the top level site, for template selection I again had to select "Blank Site".
I then proceeded to create a library for the data connection. Towards this, I created a new document library and selected "Basic page" as the document template. I then went to Library Settings for this newly created library and clicked on
Advanced Settings. In the Advanced Settings page, for "Allow management of content types?" I selected "Yes". Then I clicked on "Add from existing content types" and selected "Report Data Source". I deleted the existing
"Document" content type for this library.
Now I wanted to created a Data Connection in the above Data Connection library. For this when I clicked on "New Document" under "Documents" of "Library Tools" and selected "Report Data Source", I got the error "The
request failed with HTTP status
401: Unauthorized.".
Can anybody tell me why I am getting this error?
Note: I have created the site and the library using SharePoint Admin account.

Hi,
Thank you for your detailed description. According to the description, I noticed that the report server was not part of the
SharePoint farm. Add the report server to the
SharePoint farm and see how it works.
To join a report server to a SharePoint farm, the report server must be installed on a computer that has an instance of a SharePoint product or technology. You can install the report server before or after installing the SharePoint product
or technology instance.
More information, see

Missing Connection Types in Report Data Source Properties

I am running three installations of SharePoint 2013 with SQL 2012 for Business Intelligence, with Kerberos working.
I have been having intermittent issues with SQL Reporting Services in a multi-server configuration, but finally had it working in all three environments. We discovered many of our issues were caused by master page customizations which we have now disabled
temporarily while we work on function issues.
However, we started having a new problem with Reporting Services on just ONE of the environments, and we are not sure what happened. Most everything appears to still be working, except Reporting Services. I have verified that features are enabled
in both the farm and the site collection, as well as insured managed content types are being allowed on the target document libraries. I also verified the Reporting Service properties and database connections. However, I have found two clear symptoms
which I can find no other information regarding (in logs or in online searches):
1) If we try to create a new "Report Data Source" using the SharePoint UI, it will open a new Data Source Properties window, but in the "Data Source Type" field, there are no values available for me to select my connection type (e.g.,
Microsoft SQL Server).
2) In Central Administration, while administering the Reporting Services Service Application, I can manage a majority of the settings, including System Settings, Manage Jobs, Key Management, etc. However, if I click on the link for "E-mail Settings,"
I get the dreaded "Sorry Something went wrong screen," with an error saying that "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object."
So I am hoping someone has an idea of where I can look for additional information on this issue, or even better, knows what I am missing to get Reporting Services functional again in this environment!
Thanks in advance for any help provided.
Elohir

However, we started having a new problem with Reporting Services on just ONE of the environments, and we are not sure what happened.
Hi Elohir,
I assume you are installing Reporting Services SharePoint mode for SharePoint 2013, you need to:
1. Install "Reporting Services – SharePoint" and "Reporting Services add-in for SharePoint Products" on the SharePoint server that the SSRS service will run on. All other SP servers only need the "Reporting Services
add-in for SharePoint Products."
2. Run the Insall-SPRSService and Install-SPRSServiceProxy on Central Admin and SSRS server.
3. Start SSRS Service only on desired SSRS servers.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219068.aspx
Since the issue occurs only to one of the environments, please provide more information about your multi-server configuration, and point out the server where the issue occurs.

To create a Power View report, start Power View from a
data model file in SharePoint Server 2010 or 2013. Models, or connections to models, can be in a SharePoint Server document library or in a
Power Pivot Gallery, a special purpose SharePoint Server document library that provides rich preview and document management for published Microsoft Excel workbooks that contain data models.

Unable to generate Power View report out of Multidimensional report data source

Hi,
I have created 'Report Data Source' connection to point to Multidimensional cube on Share Point site. But when I try to create a new Power View report out of it, I get following error message :
"An error occured while loading the model for the item or data source 'http://*********/PowerPivot Gallery/TestCube.rsds'. Verify that the connection information is correct and that you have permission to access the data source."
I can see following message in the <moreInformation> section :
<Source>Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services</Source><Message>Errors in the metadata manager. The current model can only be expressed when the client is requesting tabular view metadata with VERSION restriction of 2.0 or later.</Message>
Following are the System configurations :
1) SSAS : SQL Server 2012 + SP2 (version 11.0.5058)
2) Share Point 2013
As mentioned in one of the MSDN documents this configuration supports creation of Power View reports on multidimensional cube.
Can any one suggest what might be the issue?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Dipti,
According to your description, you get the connection failure when creating a power view report, and it throws information "Errors in the metadata manager. The current model can only be expressed when the client is requesting tabular view metadata with
VERSION restriction of 2.0 or later." Right?
Based on the error message, the issue should be the SSRS on sharepoint metadata version mismatch when sending to SSAS. There's someone mentioned in a similar thread that this issue can be solved by installing the full package of CU4 for SP1.
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/133558cd-ffc8-4608-ae45-fdff01770c6d/powerview-sql-2012-sp1-cu4-cannot-connect-to-dimensional-metadata-version-11?forum=sqlreportingservices
Even you already have SP2 installed, it supposed included CU1~CU9 for SP1. However, it has reported that SP2 doesn't fix all bugs which supposed to be fixed in CU for SP1.
SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 is available - but there's a catch!
So please re-install the full CU4 for SP1, restart the services and try again.
Best Regards,
Simon Hou
