Master Data Selective Deletion

Hi,
Is it possible to delete master data selectively?
SE14 or DB02 can be of help?
Regards

Hi,
Please have a look at the below points:.
1.You can only delete the master data record if there is no transaction data exist
for the master data that you need to delete . otherwise you wont be able
to delete the master data.
2.While loading we load the master data first followed by transactional data,
but deletion is opposite ie first transactional data and then master data.
3.You need to find it out where it is used by just go to info object and
where used list it will give you all the detail about that info object.
4.When you manually go to info object right click and delete it will ask fro two
thing one is with Sid or without Sid,i think delete with "with Sid",
while doing this you will get some message that some of the master data is
not deleted. Then just ignore this warning as this is due to still some transactional data exist.
5.You need to again find it out So,then goto tcode SLG1-- enter Object: RSDMD and
Subobject: MD_DEL and User: ur userID and F8 and go to next screen expand it and
double click it will give information about what all objects using the
Sid of master data.
6.After getting the list of object you need to delete the corresponding
particular data from the various objects.
7.Use Tcode RSRV -> Tests in Transaction RSRV -> All Elementary Tests -> Transaction Data -> Entries Not Used in the dimension of an InfoCube (Dbl Click)From the right side window, expand u201CEntries Not Used in the Dimension of an InfoCubeu201D Node &Enter InfoCube (like 0SD_C01), click u201CTransfer Now, click u201CExecuteu201D (Toolbar)u2026 and the results displayed in the right side window..Now, click u201CCorrect erroru201D (Toolbar)
Hope this is helpful.
Also give it a try like go to maintainace of master data and select the row that you want
to delete and in the above select the delete button and save it.
Thanks,

Error in DTP (The master data is deleted in the Background)

Hi,
while loading the data to Data target (0chrt_acct_attr) through DTP...... I got the Error " The master data is deleted in the Background". Plz advice me it is an urgent issue.

Does the log in SLG1 say any more details?
Use RSDMD as Object & MD_DEL as Sub Obj. Leave the other field to *.
Is it happening for 1 specific object or for all? What type of data (attr or text)?

E-Recruiting Master Data physically deleted in ECC but how to delete in BI

Hello,
I'm sure this problem has been encountered by others and I'm wondering what to do about it. E-Recruiting is mostly made up of master data. The InfoSets are built on master data. The issue I'm having is that a requisition can be physically deleted in the ECC 6.0 system but it remains in BI 7.0 never knowing that is has been deleted. This poses a problem for reporting. We may be reporting on things that have been deleted in the source system. I am considering totally deleting all of the data prior to the load daily. The business content loads are all full loads. There is a step available for the process chain for deleting DSO and InfoCube data but not master data. What has anyone else done about this?
Thanks for any insight,
Diane Merrill

An alternaitve approach to deleting master data:
- Add a navigational attribute to the requisition master data 'deleted' value Yes(x) / No (blank)
- Before loading master data from e-recruitment set 'delete' to true (x) for all records
(to do this create an export datasource from requisitions and feed this back to update requistions)
- Load data from e-recruitment and for every record loaded mark the deleted attribute to false (blank)
After this has been carried out all requisitions still in e-recruitment will have a value blank for the 'deleted' attribute and all requisitions no longer present in e-recruitment are marked with an 'X'. You can then exclude with a query restriction deleted requisitions.

ARCHIVING MASTER DATA or DELETE

Hellow Masters,
I need to do "archive" or "delete" of some Master data already marked for deletion, how i do it... A friend say something about tcode "Sara", this the right path, somebody know ?
Thank's once more,

Hello there,
It depends on whether you simply want these objects to be locked and not used or whether you want to achieve an actual archiving of this data. If you are ok with the first option, go to processing the rental object (RECN, REBDRO, REBDBE, REBDPR, etc.) and then from menu Edit - Change Status - Archive - Set Deletion Flag. Thus, these objects will have DLFL status set.
If you want to archive the objects, refer to the steps described in the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/fb/1cb1897a90e54a8a2e075781aff4c5/content.htm

Master Data row delete problem

Hi.
I have an UDO(master data with details) form, I use code below to remove single detail line and to keep row numbering correct, for which UserDatasource is used, "row" is a currently selected matrix row number.
form.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@MYDETAILS").RemoveRecord(row - 1);
for (int i = row - 1; i < form.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@MYDETAILS").Size; i++)
         form.DataSources.UserDataSources.Item("udsRowNo").Value = (i + 1).ToString();
         form.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@MYDETAILS").Offset = i;
         matrix.SetLineData(i + 1);
matrix.DeleteRow(matrix.RowCount);
if (form.Mode == BoFormMode.fm_OK_MODE) form.Mode = BoFormMode.fm_UPDATE_MODE;
This code work fine, but when datasource(so matrix too) contains just one line and after RemoveRecord(row-1) form.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@MYDETAILS").Size returns 0, after forms Update (Update button click) form.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@MYDETAILS").Size again returns 1.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.

Delete unused master data of a characteristic in BW7.30

Hi
I try to delete some master data entries in a characteristic.
Unfortunately I got an error message:
Lock of master data attributes deletion is set.
Then BW 7.30 set an entry for the characteristic in the table RSMASD (Lock Table for Master Data Deletion) and I canu2019t delete the master data.
I try to delete the master data via a job (maintain master data) and manually (select the wrong master data in the table -> delete and save the table), but I get the same error message above.
I also delete all open lock entries in SM12 and try again, but wonu2019t solve the issue.
Can someone explain me why BW 7.30 set the master data lock and how I can delete the unused master date of this characteristic?
Best regards
Tobias

Anyone with a solution for this? We have the exact same problem.
Can the record in RSMASD be deleted?
I created a new InfoObject and inserted a new masterdata text record. Then I tried to delete it immediatly, and i got the same error. If the object is in RSMASD, it gives a shortdump in ST22. If there's no record in RSMASD, then it gives a error (Lock not set...)

     come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Error analysis
    In the Open SQL work area operation used, the work area in the key part
    must be convertible to a database table.
    For Unicode semantics this means the Unicode fragment views must
    correspond in length to the databse key.
    In non-Unicode systems, both structures must be flat for the length of
    the database key, with the exception of string components. This means
    that the key parts may not contain either references or internal tables.
    In this case the key of the database table has a width of 14 bytes.
Thanks.

Master Data Deletion / Function Module RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA

I need to develop an automated way of deleting some data from 0employee master data InfoObject. The data we need to delete from the InfoObject is held in a separate ODS.
I believe the only automated way is to create an ABAP program which uses the function module RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA.
Can anyone please advise what FM RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA is designed to do.
I'm also not an ABAP'er so I'm unsure how to code what I need. Can anyone help me with this?
Many thanks,
Mark.

Hi,
if you need to delete master data selectively, then use the mentionned function module: RSDMD_DEL_MASTER_DATA
check this thread:

from which you'll get the code:
TYPES: ly_CHAVL         type RSCHAVL.

"the above will fill your inttable.

Master data deletion - Issues

Hi Experts,
0WBS_ELEMT info object data was populated through 3.x transformation, my client has loaded 400+ incorrect data which appear now when selecting the master data during reporting. At this stage not intending to delete entire data set as the volume is huge, In parallel there is a process chain run happens. Following are the issues:
1. Deletion of one record takes nearly 15 minutes.
2. Used the program RSDMDD_DELETE_BATCH which will delete the data selectively.
3. Timeout errors occurred due to wp_run time was set 600 seconds --> Basis to increase the time.
Please advise is there any other way we can easily delete the erroneous data without impacting the system in large?
Kind regards,
Las.

Hi,
check the with the your source team modify the in source side.
before deleting the master data first delete the transaction data with reference master data.
be aware the deleting the master data.

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.
