Match Data dialog window in Master Data Services Excel Add-in
Hello, I am following the Enterprise Information Management using SSIS, MDS, and DQS Together
on
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj819782.aspx. I am now in lesson 4 Task 4 on
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/13a13f03-b307-4555-8e33-6d98c459d994.
I click the Match Data button in the ribbon in step 21. According to the tutorial the Match Data dialog window should look like this:
However, the Match Data dialog window I have looks like this:
Am I doing something wrong? Or am using a different version of the Master Data Excel Add-in?
I use SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition version 11.0.3000. Master Data Excel Add-in 11.0.2100. Excel 2010. Both Master Data Services and Data Quality Services are installed. Integration between those is configured. I have a full Master Data ribbon containing
the Data Quality buttons, which indicates DQS integration is configured.
Hi Arjen,
I seem to be having the same issue i.e the Match
Data dialog window that I have looks like the one you show
I am using:
SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP1) MDS Add-In For Excel:
11.0.3393.0
SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition: Microsoft
SQL Server 2012 (SP1) - 11.0.3128.0 (X64)
Don't know if you got anyhere with the issue recently.?
I'll keep digging.
Thanks, Martin

Web report data provider change from Master data table to InfoCube
hi Experts,
I have created one report on top of multiprovider but in the selection screen when i check the values for a variable I came to know that data is coming from master data table and not from data provider(InfoCube).Can any one help to change the data selection from master data table to data provider(InfoCube) and i am sure that there is no ODS involved in the multiprovider.
Thanks in advance

Transactional Data Load without Respective Master Data in Place
Hi Folks,
Could anyone let me know if i could load transactional data without loading the respective master data. If yes, well could you give me a scenario when you do it. Also could you let me know the option of how to load transactional data without master data in place.
Best Regards,
PrithviHi,
You can load transaction data without loading master data.
You have the option in the info package to load data even if no master data exists..
You may use it in cases where your transfer rules/update rules or routines donot refer to master data tables to populate transaction data..

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,
RajkandulaHi,
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.

Complex data model question regarding master data
Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to add master data retail price and master data cost into BW.
Both amounts are based on plant and material. How do I model this?
Here is how the records are coming in via the datasource:
Plant Material UofM Cost CostFrom CostTo Retail RetailFrom RetailTo
0001 1000321 EA $1.00 5/1/07 5/9/07 $2.99 6/6/07 6/9/07
0001 1000321 CS $8.00 5/5/07 5/7/07 $9.99 8/6/07 9/9/07
Here's what I am thinking....
1. Add UofM, Cost, and Retail prices as attributes of 0MAT_PLANT infoObject
Also make those attributes time dependent.
2. Use ABAP slit up the cost info and the retail info and use the valid dates above for the time dependent from/to dates in 0MAT_PLANT
Example:
0MAT_PLANT attributes:
Plant Material UofM Cost ValidityFrom ValidityTo Retail
0001 1000321 EA $1.00 5/1/07 5/9/07
0001 1000321 CS $8.00 5/5/07 5/7/07
0001 1000321 EA 6/6/07 6/9/07 $2.99
0001 1000321 CS 8/6/07 9/9/07 $9.99
After looking at the above, I need to compound UofM with 0MAT_PLANT somehow. How would I do that?
Is this the best way to model this?
Thanks,
ChrisChris,
I wouldn't include those amounts as attributes for 0MAT_PLANT. In general it doesn't make too much sense, except in some very specific cases, to make a Key Figure an Attribute of a Characteristic.
I wouldn't either modify the 0MAT_PLANT key to compound it with UOM... Not a good idea, in my opinion.
In your case, those values can change over time, depending on the validity period. So you could have several records with different validity periods for the same Material and Plant combination.
I'd rather create an ODS with these values. The key fields would be 0MAT_PLANT and the validity dates and the data fields would be the amounts.
You could use and include this ODS in any Multicube or get the values based on the validity periods by using ABAP routines if you need to.
Another thing, as SAP recommends, an InfoObject with more than 500,000 records shouldn't be modeled as Master Data. And 0MAT_PLANT is a perfect candidate for this situation.
So I'd advise to go with the ODS solution.
Hope this helps.

But,the InfoSource 8ZPA_0022 is not problem,how can I do?thanks.Hi,
as suggested by the message, did you update the meta data by doing a replication of datasources for the source system 'myself'? If not, do so and reactivate the communication structure. Then reload.

How to compare the data in a view with data present in a master data?
Hi All,
We have loaded some data into a Master Data Object (YMETADATA) in Development system.
Now, the same data can be present in a view RSDVCHA.
Our aim is to write a ABAP program, which would read a record from RSDVCHA and look into Master Data records and show whether it is present in the master data or not?
Has anyone written such type of code earlier, If so, please do help me out in writing this code?
Thanks in advance,
Anjum.Hello Anjum,
It looks that the view is based on the master data table itself and view doesn't contain data and is a logical representation of the underlying database tables.
Moreover the view RSDVCHA is used for viewing the characteristics, basic chars and local properties.
Are you storing similar values in YMETADATA?

Master Data Atrribute of another Master Data
Hello Gurus,
I have the below scenario.
Master Data with Text ZMDATA1 with Attributes ZMATTR1 and ZMATTR2.
Master Data With Text ZMDATA2 with Attributes ZMDATA1 and ZMATTR3.
when I load Master data to ZMDATA2, will it automatically update ZMDATA1 Master Data as well or not.
Could you please explain more about this scenario.
Thanks,
AarthiHi all,
Thank you so much for your replies.
Sarma:
I found that when data is loaded to ZMDATA2, it is not even creating an SID for ZMDATA1.
so, are they completely independent ? Is there any way to update the Master Data ZMDATA1 automatically when new values come across while loading data to ZMDATA2.
Does any one have good documentation on this topic ?
Thanks,

Data Source creation for Master Data from Flat File to BW
Hi,
I need to upload Master Data from Flat File. Can anybody tell step by step right from begining of creation of DataSource up to Loading into Master Data InfoObject.
can any body have Document.
Regards,
Chakri.Hi,
This is the procedure.
1. Create m-data with or without attributes.
2. Create infosource .
a) with flexible update
or
b) with direct update
3. Create transfer rules and assign tyhe names of m-data and attribute in "Transfer rules" tab and transfer them to communication structure.
4. Create the flat-file with same stucture as communication structure.
5. if chosen direct update then create infopackage and assign the name of flat-file and schedule it.
6. if chosen flexible update the create update rule with assigning name of the infosource and the schedule it by creating infopackage.
Hope this helps. If still have prob then let me know.

Difference between text data and attributes in master data?
Hello,
a charcteristic in BW maintains texts, hierarchies and attributes.
What exactly is the difference between texts and attributes?
Attributes describe master data like a customer. The country where the customer resides, the industry etc. describe and classify the customer. Attributes are not just the structure/metadata of the characteristics. They are also the content. The following table should visualize what i mean:
customer-no. | name
112 | mcpherson inc.
113 | donalds inc.
Texts contain contain the description of a characteristic. Texts define a characteristic. An example is the customers name. It does not describe the customer but defines him/her.
Is my understanding about these two parts of master data right?
What else except the customer's name belongs to the texts?
If I set up a characteristic like the customer in SAP BW, do I have to create an attribute "name". The name belongs to texts, not to attributes?? If I upload master data then, how does it work?
Thanks in advance.Hi,
If your analysis includes country and region then country and region should be included in the Infocube.This is required because only if you include these characteristics then you can restrict your queries for country and region.You may need to select some particular countires/region and show the report.Then you have to restrict your queries to only those countries/region.This is possible only if you have these characteristic in your infocube.
I am just envisaging your model like this.
Characteristic in the Infocube
Customer
Country
Region
Customer Attributes
Customer Number (SID which is self generated)
Customer Address1,2 ,3
Registration No
Date of Registration
Deposit Amount
etc ...
Region Attributes
Region Number (SID)
Total Customers
Sale Office Address
Number of Sales Persons
Customer Attributes
Customer Number (SID)
Total Customers
Head Office Address
Number of Sales Persons
GDP
Total Population
So the conclusion is whichever entity you want to restrict or analyse should be a part of Infocube.It is very difficult to do analysis based on attributes as I mentioned in my earlier post that they are only "Display attributes" (u can just show that's it).
Yes!! there are methods available for analysis based on characteristics in attributes table and you have to do either with virtual characteristic or replacement path or with writing code in customer exits.But a good design and earlier study of all possible report combination and having a good design will avoid good amount of development time and changes.
I have suffered when I had only 0CALDAY in my cube and when I want to take a monthly analysis, I was unable to do it and then I have to redesign my whole cube.
Please anyone, correct me if I am wrong.

Insert data in a user master data Table
Hi every body,
I've created a User Master data table named 'MyTable'. i want to add data to this table but there is an error which occur : 'to generate this. First Define the Numbering Series in the Administration Module'. I want to add data to this table using C# code, without using UDO.
Is it possible?
Thank you for helping me
HaifaHi,
thank you for your answer.
I didn't understand very well, i will ask the question in an other way.
it is possible to insert records in a master data table by using the code C#
I mean :
usertable = _Company.UserTables.Item(tablename);
usertable.Code = code;
usertable.Name = name;
usertable.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_ContCode").Value = ContCode;
usertable.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_CardCode").Value = CardCode;
lRetCode = usertable.Add();
without encountering the problem of numbering series.
