MDX Queries , Webservices in SAP BI7.0

In BI we have a Query and that query is being used by .NET Application. Now we need to do some changes in the query. While i made a change in the query in Q-Sys that change is not reflecting in the .NET Application[Q-Sys]. From the .NET Person i received some MDX Queries which are using for retrieving the data from the query. I used the TCODE : MDXTEST while im going to give that MDX Query and run it is showing the data, but that data is not similar to the query o/p(changed query), it is showing the data (as of before modifying the query).
Any one please help me out, regarding this MDX Queries, What is the WebService part in BW,
When XMLA, SOAP, WSDL ... come into picture as of BW side.

Mdx-queries: how to optimize their processing?

hi there. I have a problem with mdx-queries processing. For now mdx-queries are processed as follows:
if I refer a dimension in an mdx-query the OLAP processor while creating a cube downloads into internal memory the whole SID-table and then the whole P- and Q- tables for the corresponding charachteristic are being downloaded as well. And it doesn't take in account any filters used in a query on this stage, i.e. the whole axis is downloaded.
Does anyone know if there is a possibility to optimize the mdx-queries processing in SAP BW? How to make it take in account filters on the stage of downloading master data for the cube?
We use the SAP BW 3.5 version.

Request MDX syntax for BOE XI3.0 and SAP BI7

Hi,
Does anyone know that where I can find a document to specify the MDX syntax that can be used for BOE XI3.0 and SAP BI7?
I found a related topic on:
Resources for customizing SAP Universe objects with MDX
But after go through the above thread, the feeling is that we can only get the answer by testing each of the syntax.
Could anyone share any ideas to this topic?
Thanks and regards
nora

Hi Ingo,
Here is the example that customer gave:
Per you request, a real example. The following objects were created,
when an universe was set up against a BEx Query:
Notation A: [0LOCNOTA].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTA].[Value]
Notation B: [0LOCNOTB].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTB].[Value]
Notation C: [0LOCNOTC].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTC].[Value]
Notation D: [0LOCNOTD].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTD].[Value]
User Status: [0LOCUSTA].[LEVEL01].[20LOCUSTA].[Value]
Want to be able to create an object, CFact, defined in the universe as
(shown in Oracle syntax here, but of course we have a SAP OLAP
universe thus our request for a MDX syntax for BO and SAP BW/BEx Query):
decode([0LOCNOTA].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTA].[Value],'Y','FAIL;','')
||decode([0LOCNOTB].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTB].[Value],'Y','CDMN;','')
||decode([0LOCNOTC].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTC].[Value],'Y','BSFR;','')
||decode([0LOCNOTD].[LEVEL01].[20LOCNOTD].[Value],'Y','ERR;','')
||substr([0LOCUSTA].[LEVEL01].[20LOCUSTA].[Value],1,4)
Say, if values for the objects are 'Y', 'N', 'Y', 'N',
and 'INACESSIBLE', respectively, CFact would have the data
FAIL;BSFR;INAC
Hope the above provides you with enough detail.
thanks and regards
nora

MDX queries : BW statistics are inconsistents

Hello,
We are implementing BO on top of SAP BW 3.5.
We had some major performance issues , and now we're tryning to investigate in detail.
The queries were first launched on BO only, and afeterwards on SAP BW, using the transaction MDXTEST, we measured a similar amount of time.
Now now want to have a closer look at the distribution of the time spent. (DB%,Frontend%;Network%, etc...)
The problem is that when we have a look at transaction ST03 in BW analysis, the statistics of MDX
queries are inconsistents :
I've join a concrete example :
The left column is a BO statistic executed on SAP using MDXTEST,
The right column is a traditional BEX query.
When I do the addition of the different time %(percent total) the results is 100 % for the Bex query ...and 44% for the MDX query.
I know that many fixes for MDX have been delivered on BI.7, but what about 3.5, I searched the sap notes but I couldn't find any note descrybing this symptom, nor any fix for our BW release.
Do you know how I should interpret thoses results, in other worlds, where ar the missing percentages in MDX queries ?
thank you in advance for your help.
Regards.

Hi Raoul,
in regards to the BW statistics values I would suggest you open a OSS case.
in regards to the performance improvements - correct they are done for BI7 and the XI 3.1 release.

Perfromance problem when using MDX queries in Crystal

Dear All,
I am using Crystal reports together with an MDX query from the BI system. When I run the report in the Web then it takes 60 seconds to get results. When I use this query through MDX into a crystal report the query runs very long and in most cases ends up with the message :
Database connection error: 'No more storage space available for extending an internal table"
It looks like there is something going on with the definition of the query on the database when using the MDX drivers. Is There a way to solve this ?
I hear rumours that upgrading to EHP 1 Stack 3 solves performance problems arround MDX queries, but I cannot find prove anywhere. Without proof or an official statement I cannot advise the Customer.
Please Help,
Marcel

Hi Ingo,
This feature I did not use yet ;-).
The MDX looks like :
SELECT {[Measures].[4B78DNZSKX3JQCWJKSS9S421C]} ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0TERR2__Z0SALEM].MEMBERS, {[Z0TERR2__Z0SALEM].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0CUST].MEMBERS, {[Z0CUST].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([0DOC_NUMBER].MEMBERS, {[0DOC_NUMBER].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0TERR2].MEMBERS, {[Z0TERR2].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0ORDITEM__Z0CNVMAN].MEMBERS, {[Z0ORDITEM__Z0CNVMAN].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0CICL__Z0IMLG18].MEMBERS, {[Z0CICL__Z0IMLG18].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0DUMOVEN__Z0MOVDECR].MEMBERS, {[Z0DUMOVEN__Z0MOVDECR].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0BUSTRW].MEMBERS, {[Z0BUSTRW].[All]}), CROSSJOIN(EXCEPT([Z0BUSTSTW].MEMBERS, {[Z0BUSTSTW].[All]}), EXCEPT([Z0IBUSTRW].MEMBERS, {[Z0IBUSTRW].[All]})))))))))) DIMENSION PROPERTIES [Z0CUST].[20CITY], [Z0CUST].[2Z0CUST], [0DOC_NUMBER].[2Z0SALCRON] ON ROWS FROM [Z0SD_M04/Z0SD_M04_Q0021] SAP VARIABLES [0P_COAR] INCLUDING [0CO_AREA].[3100], [0P_COCD] INCLUDING [0COMP_CODE].[3110], [0GMFROM] INCLUDING [0FISCPER].[Y42009002], [0GMTO] INCLUDING [0FISCPER].[Y42009002], [!V000005] INCLUDING [Z0REJECFP].[Y42009002], [!V000006] INCLUDING [Z0REJECFP].[Y42009002], [ZP_CSDAT] INCLUDING [0CALDAY].[20090311]
Running the query in MDXTEST transaction with Flattening gives data in 10 minutes.
Running the query in multidimensional mode gives the same result.
How to proceed ??
Kind regards

How to use Webservices in SAP 7.0 SP 17

Hi,
I am having issues calling the webservices in SAP 7.0 SP 17.
I am following the below mentioned tutorial to call a webservice from a portal project (PAR).
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b449e790-0201-0010-1188-ff17840712d3
I have been successful to a point where my websevice needs authentication. I am not sure how to do this.
Here is the code of doContent()
public void doContent(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
         try
              logger.infoT("Inside doConent()...");
               UserProfile up = pushUserProfileAttributes();
               logger.infoT("After pushUserProfileAttributes()...");

              catch (Exception e1){logger.errorT("Error in calling webservice...."+ e1.getLocalizedMessage());
Its failing at RegisterUserResponse res = port.CreateExternalUserProfile(up);
and the error I am getting is

Automatic authentication with a webservice in SAP

hi all
I have a flex application which uses SOAP webservices from SAP to retrieve data.
Everytime one of the SOAP webservices is called the user have to enter a name plus password
I would like to make this automaticly. So that the user haven't got to fill this in. But Flex already filled it automaticcally.
But how do this work? How can you set this in Flex?
kind regards
Anton Pierhagen

hi Sathyamoorthi. That is correct. But i'd like to suppress this one time login for the user.
My wish is that during the calling of the webservice in SAP, a system user is automatically login in the background just like the retrieving of the data.
So the user who uses the flex application has no idea that a webservice in SAP is used for the retrieving of the data.
Do you have any idea how to solve this?
Kind regards,
Anton Pierhagen

Teradata and SAP BI7.3 Connection

Hi experts,
I have requirement to extract data from Teradata to SAP BI7.3, I have gone through some of the links in SDN which was suggest to go for UD connection with JDBC
1.In SAP BI7.3 is there any other way of connecting Teradata ( As all links referred to old version i.e BW3.5 and UD Connector)
2.Does any body have step by step document,
3.What are the Pros and Cons of using UD connector? Can I use DB connector ? and which is the best possible way to get data from Teradata.
Thanks and regards
Sri

Hello
You need to deploy the JDBC drivers for Teradata
Once done you need to create a connection string in the Java stack under the Connector Container.
There is a document available on the Teradata site with the complete steps.
The procedure is same like for other databases. Follow that
