Modeling document date in BPC MS...

BPC only has CHAR data type. I need to define an object that will store fields like document date, posting date etc. so that detail level transactions can be reported on by the dates. I am at a loss as to how to handle it in dimensions. Any advise?

Hi Matt,
Your question actually leads me to understand the data modelling, you wish to have.
Do you want to the posting dates different from the usual dates in the Time dimension?
The main idea is that you need to identify the transactional record, you wish to have. The number of fields in your transaction data should be equal to the number of dimensions in your application. So, if you want to have only one field in your transactional data for storing the dates, then you can go with the usual time dimension (you will have to maintain the appropriate master data in the time dimension). If you want to store the posting dates separately, then you need to have a separate dimension for that.
Hope you got my point.

Delete the records which have the Data values are NULL before load data to BPC model

Hi Everyone,
I am loading the data from flat file to BPC Model (10.0 Version).
Source data (Flat file) looks like below:
RP_Employee RPT_Currency Data
Test                USD                   8
Test1              USD
Test2              USD                    6
My user requirement is that to delete the records which have the Data values are NULL before load data to BPC model.
So,Please let me know how can i meet to this requirement.
I am thinking that,it is possible by using start routine BADi. If i am correct please let me know process like creation of class and BADi implementation.
Thanks in advance!!

Hi Nilanjan,
Please see my source data below:
Account      Client       Employee     Time                Data
123              XYZ            Vishu            2014.01               300
456                                                       2014.01
789              ABC         Alexander      2014.02               200
If you see the second record,
If data value is ZULL, then the Employee or another dimension is also NULL.
So I want to delete second records.
If it is Start routine please share the code and steps to do.
Thanks in advance!!

How to retract data from BPC Netwaver to SAP R/3

Hi all,
I have three questions concerning the retraction of data from BPC to R/3:
1)Can someone explain me how i can send data from BPC to R/3 (via SAPBI)??
2)What's a better choice => Can i do this from an infocube or a DSO?
3)And what is the role of the BAPI's "BAPI_0050_CREATION" and "BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT"
Or are those not important?

hi,
The push principle shows a workaround to start an extractor from the source system.... for this you can try APDs (esp for CRM system)and open hub destinations(OH).
or
kindly refer to below document which describes about the COPA retraction as an example for the same

What is the best practice for doing this?
I have read the "How To... Retract data from BPC 7.5 NetWeaver to SAP ERP Cost Center Accounting, Part I", but this is prepared to transfer data to Cost Center accounting. Will General Ledger be populated automatically?
What is your opinion on this?

Retraction cost center plan data from BPC to ECC

HI Experts,
We are integrating BW-BPC.
The client wants to Retract the data from BPC to ECC System for reporting purposes.
u201CIn order to be able to calculate standard costs correctly in production plants planning data from BPC is needed in SAP ECC.
The data needed is the planning data on cost centers which are currently entered into SAP manually via transaction KP06. This data will now be entered into BPC instead and therefore it is required to get an interface between BPC and SAP ECC for transferring data.
A description of the process and the data needed is available in the section u201CSAP ECC Screen Dumpu201D sectionu201D including screen dumps from ECC
If this interface is not created the task of entering in the planning data will double as the data must be entered both in BPC and SAP ECC. The process of entering in the data twice I estimate will add 1 u2013 2 extra days of work for each subsidiary involved in this.u201D
What is the options to support this Business Process of getting data from BPC to SAP ECC.

Retract data from BPC 10.0 to ECC

Hi All,
We are attempting to retract data from netweaver BPC 10.0 to ECC. We have followed the how to guide (How To... Retract data from BPC 7.5 NetWeaver to SAP ERP Cost Center Accounting,) which details steps for version 7.5.
We have attempted to implement the transport in the appendix of this guide which implements class ZCL_BPC_RTRCT_SUPERCLASS. This transport fails as it is missing method GET_APPL_DATA. Has anyone had any experience with this class in 10.0, or even 7.5? Alternatively, does anyone have guidliness for implementing retractionto ECC in BPC 10.0?
Many thanks,

Document date for time zone of user

We have modeled the date of documents 0CREATEDON (document header and item details) to time dimensions of InfoCubes. The 0CREATEDON date reflects the system date i.e. CST. The report user wants sales document based reporting to reflect his/her time zone date.
We have added an additional field to the sales document header extractor that records time zone date of where document was created. This does not exist for document details extractor.
Has anyone come up against this problem? How have you modeled the data to provide such a reporting capability? Is there date conversion routines for reporting that would convert time zone dates?

With ABAP you can use the function "CONVERT TIME ZONE". If you type this in a test-program with se38 and then press F1 while the cursos is on the wordt CONVERT you will get all necessary explanation.
Note: I think that the timezone of the user is available in one of the sy-fields. The daylight savings indicator is available as a sy-field for sure.

Remove 0 records when Exporting TXN data from BPC

BPC Experts,
I m trying to export transaction data from BPC from one MODEL , While exporting i wanted to ignore the records whose aggregated value is zero for the dimension member combination.
Where i can restrict or set , EXPORT only for SIGNED DATA <> 0.

Hi,
Performance point of view optimization is required. As i mentioned in previous post lite optimization Closes the open request, compresses without Zero-Elimination and indexes the cube, and updates database statistics for the BW Info-Cube.
As per my understanding there are no such prerequisite , but for safer side you can process all dimension of model.
Also go through the links that are shared. If you required more details you can search on forum. There are lot of threads on lite optimization.

Calculating local currency based on document date in goods receipt

We have a requirement in Poland that the local currency PLN should be calculated based on the document date when doing goods receipt, and not standard SAP posting date. I can only find note 619330 according to this requirement, but this note requires use of material ledger which we are not using. We have implemented note 574583 for the same requirement in transaction MIRO.
Since there are no notes from SAP according to the requirement in transaction MIGO, are there any enhancements available for using the document date instead for posting date when calculating local currency?
Best regards,

Problem with material and document date in sales order

Hi All,
I am working in ECC 6.0 .I am facing problem with two fields when in enter in to sales order(tcode:va01)
1.A material comes automatically in line item.
2.Document date also comes as 27.03.2008 instead of todays date in each order i create.
I think its not related to configuration.I think its related to some modifications through exits or enhancement points.could someone suggest me a where to check and solve that.
Your's suggestion is appreciated.

Open items yet to be cleared which have 2-3 years old document date

Sap Experts,
This is my first post and would like to ask for a help .
I would like to clear all the open items which have Zero balance and belongs to Fiscal year 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010.
In F-04 T.code, When I put the document date, it does not allow me to clear it.
Please give me the best solution you think of any other alternative which is right or please provide me with steps to clear by using F-04
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
LSD

Thanks Atif & Sanil for your quick reply,
But the problem is when I enter the GL account, it is giving me error, stating that "there are no open items managed in Account XXXXXXXXXX". I have checked the control data in FS00 and only Line item Display is ticked.
I have recently joined this place, and the items are open from the day SAP was implemented. So they do not use Auto clearing.
Some points I am thinking below,
Q1. Does it mean that the control data must have open item to be "ticked"?
Q2. The A/c i am trying to clear is Non-current Trade receivables, so can we clear such accounts.
In terms of Clearing the data from 2007 till date,
Q3. Do I have to open the old periods or can I clear in current period.
Further info will be very helpful.
Cheers

Running Aging reports based on Document date in 2007

Hi All,
I have an issue while running the Receivables aging report in the 2007 version. The customer usually runs the reports based on the document date. Document date holds more importance in their case.
However, in the 2007 version, the aging report is totally governed by the posting date. For example, if I change the aging date, the posting date also changes to the aging date and viceversa. If I want to change the aging date to 01/31/09, the posting date u2018Tou2019 automatically changes to 01/31/09 and when we run the report, it will bring in all transactions until the posting date of 01/31/09.
But, the requirement is to leave the posting date as blank and give the document date u2018Tou2019 01/31/09. This will then pull all transactions until the document date of 01/31/09 irrespective of the posting date.
As a result, when you run the balance sheet with the document date of 01/31/09, receivables show a different balance. This discrepancy is due to the fact that AR Receivable aging report forces to keep the Aging date = Posting date.
This was not the case in SAP 2005 version where we were allowed to key in the aging date and the document date to get results based on document date.
This is very critical as they have recently upgraded from 2005 to 2007 and they are unable to reconcile the balances out of Balance sheet and Aging.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Payal

Hi Jitin,
We tried that as well but no luck. There is still a discrepency between what the aging shows and what the BS shows. When we put the Aging date as 01/31/09 and Document date as 01/3109, the posting date 'To' is automatically filled with 01/31/09, so it basically searches for all transactions with the posting date 01/31/09 and document date 01/31/09. This is not the requirement as we do not want to consider the posting date at all while running the aging.
I also have some screenshots if I can share. I am not sure if I should report this to SAP for further investigation or am I missing something here.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Payal
