IDOC meta deta refresh related query

Hi ,
We are dealing with IDOC to file scenario. The scenario is created and transported to Production .
Suppose after that we have to add extra field in the IDOC .The ABAP guys created the new IDOC in SAP system we deleted the old IDOC imported new one in IR (dev) and done the mapping initally the field was not coming but after meta deta refresh (IDX2) the field has succesfully come in PI and sent to destination . We have transported the change ( IDOC and the message mapping ) to other env . Now do we have to refresh the meta deta manually in that environment also? or can we transport the meta deta also in other environment to avoid manually deletion/updation of meta deta in evry env .
Kindly update me
Regards,
Saurabh

thanks again
Even we were also have the same understanding that we don't need to do any thing extra for meta deta refresh in other env.
but recently we are facing issue in pre prod that the IDOC(in which extra field has been added ) get struck in ECC and does not come to PI untill we have not manually uploaded the meta deta . so the client is asking that instead of manual deletion/updation of meta deta can we transport the meta deta or make the process automated .
Regards,
Saurabh

Could not read meta deta

below is described error:

Hi skc_chat,
According to the error message, you may do not have the permission to view the metadata. Please follow the steps below to grant the permissions to the current login on the SQL Server Management Studio:
Right click on the server name and select properties.
Click on the Permissions tab.
Select the login name.
On the Explicit tap, Grant "View Any Definition" to this login.
To grant this permission by T-SQL:
GRANT VIEW ANY DEFINITION TO <loginname>
Go

Load balancing and rfc metadata repository in reciever rfc communication ch

hi.
i want to know the purpose of load balancing and rfc meta data repository in RFC communication channel.
and can u send me any examples on this load balancing.
waiting for your response.
bye.
regards.
seeta ram.

Hi Seeta Ram,
Load distribution is handled by the message server (there is one message server in an SAP System). When a user logs on, the message server assigns him or her to the application server that currently has the <b>smallest load</b>.
Well now you can understand that we use load balancing for better performance by distributing the work to different processes to balance or maintain the work load in SAP system.

Meta data and data asset management

I am looking for suggestions and or products that can support managing our footage.
Our goal is for an editor to search for a clip using the data entered in the “description” (metadata) field of clips and sub-clips that have been logged in various projects.
Here is the outline.
We record clips of high def footage and we import batches of these clips; sometimes a few dozen, and sometimes thousands. We bring these batches into a Premiere Pro CS5 project by importing the video clips from within a P2 card folder structure, or avchd, or dslr footage or ??/any format we collect...
We log a description of the clips and of sub-clips, and then we edit a film from those elements. After 1 project, or after 50 projects, we have all the detailed description (metadata) we've entered about each clip and sub-clip captured, and this data lives within the CS5 project. We can only search it from within the original project.
If we start a new project and we need to look back at footage from old projects, we can only search for footage by going into that old project . We would like to have the metadata write back to our archive (or a copy of the footage in a new archive.) If the archive and the clips and sub-clips had the metadata from the project we could search and find assets. Among the obstacles is that sub-clips share the name of the clip it comes from so there is no “place” for it’s metadata. We've tried using Project Manager>Collect Files & Copy to New Location but the subclip .mxf files created through this process are copies of the source clip despite being labeded "random.subclip001". When imported, this "random.subclip001" file shows up in Premiere as the original "random" source clip name.
We are looking at a small library – but it’s big for us. About 20 terabytes… A typical client might have 4-6 terabytes of assets we would like to look through for a shot, or an interview… Has anyone made inroads on this?
Many thanks for any thoughts and ideas.
Sincerely,
Rees Candee

Hi Abhilash,
Meta Data-
In BW the meta-data contain data about data.
It is like having information about the information.
You have the business related meta-data for example the description used in your reports or the technical related meta-data for example the rules used in the transformation or the extraction. These are the two types of meta-data you have in the metadata repository that you manage with the metadata manager
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/80/1a6197e07211d2acb80000e829fbfe/content.htm
Meta Data Repository
It is the repository which Manages Meta Data, for example like when talking about an ODS in the metadatarepository you can read about which characteristics, key figures, infosource and updaterules are used in it. And creation date, owner etc.

Enterprise Service Repository

Hi,
I like to know the differences in between Enterprise Service Repository and Integration Repository (XI)?
Thanks & Regards,
Kamaljeet Singh

hi Kamaljeet,
ESR is a meta data repository, meaning that it stores data that describes other data. The meta data inside the ESR is then used by development tools, modeling tools, operational management tools, and by other services to help them do their jobs. The ESR has also been given the job of storing descriptions of business objects and models that show how services work together in process components.
Perhaps the best way to quickly understand the ESR is to list all the different types of metadata stored in in and quickly explain how that data is used.
Type of data and How it is used as follows:
Web Services Definition Language (WSDL) files These files describe the service interfaces of enterprise services and are used by development tools and during run-time to look up interface definitions.
Business Object Descriptions Business objects are used in modeling to show what structures exist in an application that are implementing services.
Process Component Models This data describes models that show how enterprise services work together to implement business processes. These models show how a service is used and what business objects implement the service.
It is important to remember that services are not implemented in the ESR. The ESR holds descriptions of services that are then implemented in applications that are separate from the repository.

BW meta data repositary - toolset

Hi,
I would like to suggest a toolset for our users to search on the various KPI's, Formulas, InfoObjects available in BW currently. This should be an easy search - without much need of any training.
Can you suggest any toolset? Can Information Steward be used? Has anyone used it before for creating such a meta data repository.
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Purbali

The Metadata Management module of Information Steward is the recommended tool for your needs. Section "3.3 SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse Metadata" of the SAP Information Steward User Guide gives an exhaustive description of related features and functionality. Happy reading!

IDoc meta data load problem in IDX2

I have been trying to load meta deta for some idocs and am getting message 'Basic type <idoc_type> is unknown'. Interesting to note is that I could load ECMMAS01 idoc type but other idoc types like MATMAS01 ..04, ORDERS01 ...04, DOCUMENT_LOAD01 ... and many others that I tried, I got the same message. The config has been done in IDX1 and IDX2 (that's how I got the ECMMAS01 in).
There is an OSS note '0000751839 IDoc Adapter: Basic type 'XYZ' is unknown. ' It seems we are already on that patch level. Can't verify if the note has been really applied or not for authorization issues for now. The note also mentions about a workaround to set the category level to '0' (i.e. blank) in the Integration server configuration. But that doesn't seem to help either.
Anyone else had this problem and resolved it?
Harshad

Problem stands resolved. I realized that the RFC destination in XI for the R/3 system had a problem. What still is not answered is how come I was able to import ECMMAS01?!?! One explanation could be that the RFC connection was ok then. Don't know, but I am happy that it works now.

MetaData Repository in SAP BW

Hi,
I am from SAP BW. Actually, we used to create transformation and docement it. But documenting with lot of flows is tough so we used meta data repository.
But meta data reporsitory only shows mapping between two objects like datasource to isnforsource, i am looking for datasource to infosource to dso to infocube means covering whole flow.
This is presently not available.
So, can any1 tell me which ABAP code is running at backend???

Hello,
As of 7.30 the BW Metadata Repository has been designed as a WebDynpro Application. It can also run as an imbedded process in the Analytic Workbench (RSA1). Due to the nature of this technology
a separate login to the WebAS is needed to establish a Web-Session on the local WebAS. However if Single Sign On for the target system is activated the WebAS may be customized to use it as well. In this case you would see no login screen when calling the BW Metadata Repository. Please also note that also all relevant ICF-Services for BW must be active (i.e. all Web Document services) to be able to use the repository normally. Please find here some useful links to relevant ICF and ICM
documentation which might help you to properly set up your system:

License policy for separate Repository database

Oracle App Server includes Oracle Database to store repository. It annonce that this database does not require separate license intil it used only as repository.
On the other hand there is concurency between database and application server,
thus for high perfomance solutions this repository database has to be moved from Oracle Application server to separate server
(the new database creating and uploading Repository schemas).
How do you think this new database, does it require the separate license?
If require should it be App Server License or RDBMS license?
The same situation with WebCache module of Application Server. If I move it on the separate server, should I pay a separate license?
Does anybody knows?

Apps server licenses do have many gotchas.
Oracle App Server includes Oracle Database to store repository. It announce that this database does not require separate license intil it used only as repository.
On the other hand there is concurency between database and application server, thus for high perfomance solutions this repository database has to be moved from Oracle Application server to separate server (the new database creating and uploading Repository schemas).
How do you think this new database, does it require the separate license?
If require should it be App Server License or RDBMS license?
Apps server infrastructure server - This is the part of the application server that contains the need for a Oracle database server. It is used for the meta data repository.
A part from the Toplink ed all Application server licenses include the following restricted use license +"The Oracle Database is provided for use with iAS Infrastructure for storing product metadata. Storing any other data in the Oracle9iAS Infrastructure database requires a full use license of the Oracle Database. "+ Thus you do not need a separate database license.
N.B. However moving the database to a shared oracle databases server will require a license as you are not allowed to mix the different types of licenses on the same server.
Thus I would recommend you use a infrastructure server with Apps server infrastructure and database unless you go for ultra high availability which requires RAC meta database repository and primary and secondary infra server.
However that is a totally different can of worms when it comes to licensing.
Remember that your infrastructure server requires a App server license. Just which one depends on what you are doing.
If you give more details I can offer advice. Will need to know server and apps component info.
The same situation with WebCache module of Application Server. If I move it on the separate server, should I pay a separate license?
WebCache is a product that would be nice to split onto a separate server BUT Oracle AS license scheme does not make it cost effective. A point i have been making to Oracle for years :0 .
WebCache servers require their own App server license.
Just what license is again down to what you are using it for.
Does anybody knows?
Well I hope from my answer you may have guessed I get asked a lot of questions about licenses but that is why we have architects and OSC.
Thus I think I can say I know but may be someone from Oracle Business Continuity in your home country should have given you the answers also. If you can ever contact them ;-).
Good Luck

Meta Data About Query

Hi Friends,
If we create a query , where meta data about this query will be stored ?
was it stored in bi server ,if it stored how can we find?
Thanks & Regards,
Ramnaresh.P.

Hi,
Meta data means data about data
it will show the technical information,description and graphical view of any object which is a part of Business content or activated objects in BW.
The meta data will be stored in the meta data repository,
To see the meta data > go to RSA1 > Meta data repository > you can see the Business content objects and activated objects.
if you have a technical name for the query , you can find out and double click on the description of the query, for which you want to see the meta data and you can anlalyse here.
you can also use RSRT t.code to see the information for the query.
i hope it will be helpful for you
Thanks and regards.

How can we define the Repository in OBIEE

Hi All,
I am a new user of OBIEE. Can someone tell me what exactly the Repository is?
Also, can I say that the OBIEE is a super set of Discoverer? Or we can not compare these two products?
Any other information on OBIEE is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
CAH

hi,
A meta data repository is a database of data about data . The purpose of the meta data repository is to provide a consistent and reliable to data. The repository itself may be stored in a physical location or may be a virtual database, in which meta data is drawn from separate sources.

How to find what planning sequences/functions update data in a cube?

Hi, Experts:
We have a real time cube being updated by planning sequences/functions. How can I find what planning sequences/functions are updating this cube?
Thanks,
Jenny

Hi,
You can go the transaction code: rsa1 and then select "Meta data Repository" option on the left side.
You can use Meta data repository to view the dependent objects for a infocube or any other BW object.
In your case, you can select "Infocube" option on the left side and then go on selecting your infocube.
Now you will get all dependent objects created on this infocube, which will include your plannign functions also.
Refer top the following link for more details on "Meta data Repository",

Data Quality - Failed to create connection to MDR.

Hi All,
I have installed Data Quality 11.7.2 on windows 2003 server using SQL 2005 (Both SQL 2005 server and Data Quality are in the same server) , The install was successful. But when I try to Open 'Data Quality Project Architect' it throws an error
Failed to create connection to MDR.
Driver error messgage = qodbc_mssql:
Unable to connect, Database error message =] [microsoft][odbc sql server driver]
[ tcp/ip sockets] sql server does not exist or access denied
I checked the ODBC connection and tested it successfully too.
I am not able to pass through the 'Meta Data Repository Connection' as its failing in 'Setup SQL connection option'
Any help is appreciated !!!
Thanks
Ranjit Krishnan

Hi Paul,
Thanks for you reply, OBDC connection was created under System DSN, also tired the users DSN option too, but did not work.
Recreated the ODBC connection many times still no luck.
The 'Project Architect' client and the MDR (SQL 2005 Server) are on the same machine.

How to find WBS-Elements of CO-DOC-Numbers

Hi,
I need to know, whether a wbs element exists for a CO doc number / CO item number, or not.
I have to create an extractor to load the doc number - wbs element mapping into BI.
Do someone have some R/3 table proposals?
Exists a meta data repository like in BI or a used-in function for R/3?
DataSource 0WBS_ELEMNT_ATTR extracts wbs elements as field POSID.
DataSource 0CO_OM_CCA_9 extracts CO doc number as field BELNR.
DataSource 0CO_OM_CCA_9 extracts CO item number as field BUZEI.
Field 0AUXACCVAL is not useable in case of error in R/3: PM orders with wbs elements will not get an valid 0AUXACCVAL value.
Thanks and regards,
Wolfgang

Depends upon your interpretation of "number of elements in the array"
int[] numbers = new int[10];
numbers[0] = 42;
numbers[1] = 666;Number of elements in the array is 2 not 10.
</pbs>If you used something other than a primitive type for the array element type you could have a case. A value of integer zero for the other elements is still a value, so there are indeed 10 elements there.Even if it were not primitive, every element would have a value. That value would either be null or a reference.
