Master text data in Open Hub

Hi All,
I am working on BI 7.0 and am currently working on Open Hub. I have to extract data from a cost center infocube, but i also need to send the master text data for certain fields along with the infocube data into the file server.
Is this possible with open hub services,could someone please provide me with a step by step procedure to this one.
I have been following a similar thread
Nav. Attrib in Open Hub 04s
Please let me know if it was succefully implemented by someone.
Regards
Dipali

Hi Uppala,
Following are 2 approaches to achieve this
Approach 1:
1. Create info spoke which will extract data from cube to data base table (do not use file)
2. Create one more info spoke which will extract master data text to data base table (again do not use file)
3. Create join on both the data base tables.
4. Write a ABAP program which will create a file based on the joins of tables.
Approach 2 :
1. Create multiprovider on cube and master data info object
2. Create info spoke based on the multi provider, that will extract data to flat file
For 2nd approach u have to put certain filters to avoid unwanted rows

Open Hub: How-to doc "How to Extract data with Open Hub to a Logical File"

Hi all,
We are using open hub to download transaction files from infocubes to application server, and would like to have filename which is dynamic based period and year, i.e. period and year of the transaction data to be downloaded.
I understand we could use logical file for this purpose. However we are not sure how to have the period and year to be dynamically derived in filename.
I have read in sdn a number of posted messages on a similar topic and many have suggested a 'How-to' paper titled "How to Extract data with Open Hub to a Logical Filename". However i could not seem to be able to get document from the link given.
Just wonder if anyone has the correct or latest link to the document, or would appreciate if you could share the document with all in sdn if you have a copy.
Many thanks and best regards,
Victoria

Hi,
After creating open hub press F1 in Application server file name text box from the help window there u Click on Maintain 'Client independent file names and file paths' then u will be taken to the Implementation guide screen > click on Cross client maintanance of file name > create a logical file path by clicking on new entiries > after creating logical file path now go to Logical file name definition there give your Logical file , name , physical file (ur file name followed by month or year what ever is applicable (press f1 for more info)) , data format (ASC) , application area (BW) and logical path (choose from F4 selection which u have created first), now goto Assignment of physical path to logical path > give syntax group >physical path is the path u gave at logical file name definition.
however we have created a logical path file name to identify the file by sys date but ur requirement seems to be of dynamic date of tranaction data...may u can achieve this by creating a variable. U can see the help from F1 that would be of much help to u. All the above steps i have explained will help u create a dynamic logical file.
hope this helps u to some extent.

To view the data in open hub destination

Hi all,
Can anyone help me out how to check the data in open hub destination file.
These are the details:
Destination: File
Type of file : Logical file
Application Server file name : XXXXXXX
If it was file name, i know it has to be checked in AL11 with directory name and file name.
Here its a logical file name. Which is the directory corresponding to this?
Thanks,
tinkugeo

Hi,
Question: "Are all the logical files are saved in the home directory DIR_HOME?
Please correct me if I am wrong"
Ans: When you create an Open hub destination using Physical file, the file will get created in DIR_HOME directory (by default) in AL11
And for locating the physical path in AL11. Go through the below link. it gives ans to all your ques

Data Services - Open hub read - No Open Hub DTP error

Hi,
I have created a open hub destination in BW (7.0 SP21), created transformation, DTP and process chain. In Data Services (3.2) I have created flow, job etc. and every thing seems to be as expected. However when I start the job in DS it terminates with an error:
1136 5624 BIW-230334 13-11-2009 12:28:22 Process Chain <ZTEST2> of Open Hub destination <ZTEST> at SAP system <.......> no more contains Open Hub DTP. Please reimport the Open Hub destination to execute the appropriate Process Chain.
I've tried re-activating everything in BW and also re-importing the OHD in BW, but nothing works. I've even tried to re-create everything from scratch. The process chain I've created do indeed contain an Open Hub DTP.
One addtional question: I've activated the process chain, but do I also need to schedule it in BW (like you do with e.g. process chains for time points to be used in Broadcasting)? Note, I've tried both scheduling/no scheduling and does not work either way.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Jacob

You must implement following SAP Notes in SAP systems in order to make Data Services Open Hub functionality work correctly:
SAP Note 1270828 : (Open Hub Process chain is not imported into Data Services repository).
SAP Note 1294774: (Open Hub import failed - when you call the module RSB_API_OHS_DEST_SETPARAMS, th system tries to open a GUI)
SAP Note 1330568 version 3: (This note has fixed "Process Chain <ZTEST2> of Open Hub destination <ZTEST> at SAP system <.......> no more contains Open Hub DTP. Please reimport the Open Hub destination to execute the appropriate Process Chain").
SAP Note 1079698 - 70SP16 (Enable check box "Automatically Repeat Red Requests in Process Chain" in the DTP Execute)
SAP Note 1346049: (Error 028(OSOH): Request <n> cannot be locked.)
SAP Note 1338465 #with 1293589 as pre-requisite: (The ABAP/4 Open SQL array insert results in duplicate database records.)
SAP Note 1342955: (0 data records transferred)

Change of sign while extracting data using Open hub

Hello All,
We are extracting data from Info cube to a file in the application server using Open hub.
While extracting data, if there is any negative value for the key figure, negative sign is appending on the right side of the value(Eg: "123.67-"), which is the standard behaviour but I want the sign to be on the left side of the value (Eg: "-123.67") while extracting to the file at application server.
Could any one please let me know if there is any setting to do this change ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Changing the SIGN position from one side of the NUMBER to the other side can happen in following ways.
1) After the file is place in the application server. Deploy a OS SCRIPT file (for .csv) for obtaining the required changes to the required COLUMN [Basis team will have more idea on this]
2)This is time consuming idea. well deploy a routine at the Open hub -Infospoke level.

Filtering data in Open Hub

In the info-spoke definition, is there a way to make filter values dynamic in the 'Selection' tab. For example, we have an info-spoke that we extract data to monthly - by fiscal period. Since the Production instance is a closed system, we cannot change the filter value directly in Production, but would have to change it in Development and transport it up to Production. I have read in some SAP documentation that there is a plan to have variables available as selection criteria but it was not mentioned when this would be available. Thank you for your help.

Hi Celine,
   Why you want to change the selections.... why cant you use delta...?
   If you want to do selection accourding to ur fiscal year create a BADI and create a variables from system data. and restrict according to ur selection.
   for more info check at www.service.sap.com/bi -> infoindex -> O(Open hub destination).
I hope this helps.

Can we download aggregate's data through open hub?

Hi,
Can we download Cube Aggregate data to file or infospoke? If yes then send me detailed steps?
Ritika

Hi Ritika,
Thier is no staright forward, way of extracting data from Aggrgates table, as the OHD can be build on following Object types: Datasource, infosource, DSO, Infoobject & infocube.
So you can it a try by creating a generic datasource on the desired aggregates table, and use it in a Open hub destination.
Hope this helps,

New Infoobjects with Master & Text Data

Experts,
I am creating ZInfoobjects based on fields from R/3.
How does one decide i.e. on what factors should the ZInfoobject be:
a. Master Data
b. Text Data
C Hierarchy.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi Rajesh,
Based on base tables you can not say that you need master data or not. If you load master data it improves the performance of the dataloading as system finds SID's in master data quickly. If you do not load master data while loading transactional data anyway it will create entries in the master data table automatically slowing the transactional data load. In your case,
VGABE (Transaction/event type, purchase order history.)
Suppose values are as AS, EW,XY. In report while selecting the transaction type ( via variable) in F4 help if user sees only AS,EW they will not understand what the type exactly mean. If you load Tet master data for VGABE( zinfoobject) you will be able to see text along with the value.
In addition if user wants to see key figure values distributed in the hierarchy as e.g for 0material,
material            Qty.
Childrenwear     30
   womenwear    40
in such case you need to build hierarchy.
Hope this helps.

Change Info Object Master/Text data in PROD to Time dependant

Hello Experts,
I have an Info Object used in ODS and Cube. Both ODS and Cube has data in it. The Info Object has Text data.
I need to change Info Object Text data as Time dependant.
What are best way to make this change? If I make change to Info Object, how it's going to effect Cube and ODS.
Please advise.
Thanks
Padma
Padma Reddy

Bhanu,
Yes I am selectiong the check box to make IO as time dependant.
May be I am over complicationg this. Here is my understanding, correct me if I am wrong.
The IO is used in cube. It belongs to Dimension1. This dimension table is nothing but dim id's and SID's. So the Dimension table is built based on the exist SID values.
When I make change to IO, the data and SID's will change. Doesn't it cause some data inconsistancy ? And also the IO text table will have multiple rows with the same data but with different validity periods.
As I said I may be thinking too foolish or technical.
Please advise.
Thanks
Padma

Customer Master Text data label display in BEx query

Hi,
In my query output i have the customer number and its text displayed. The data comes from customer master infoobject.
But the label is displayed only for customer number.
But I need the label for text also needs to be displayed.
Kindly let me know is there any possibilities to display the label for the text.
Regards,
Indhu

Hi Induja ,
For 0CUSTOMER , name attribute is there so it will work fine, for others like 0MATERIAL, 0COMP_CODE etc. you can follow the steps which i have posted in above reply.
Use the same steps for 0Material, creation of Z- infoobject with reference char. of 0Material.....
Create one custom 'z' InfoObject lets say ZCUSTOMER with Reference Characteristic of 0CUSTOMER and add it to the data target, map it with same field for which 0CUSTOMER is mapped and load data into target (DSO, cube) or if you are reporting on multiprovider then assign it.
Because ZCUSTOMER is created with reference of 0CUSTOMER and mapped with the same source field , ZCUSTOMER will act as copy of 0CUSTOMER.
In query designer drag 0CUSTOMER and ZCUSTOMER. change display setting
0CUSTOMER display as Key only
ZCUSTOMER display as Text only.
