Multiple loads to a cube ?

hello BW Experts,
Can we do multiple loads to a cube ?
Thanks,
BWer

If it is a FULL LOAD, definitely there would be duplication of data from ODS. I think you should consider dropping of requests in a FULL LOAD scenario or implementing DELTA.
In you update rules of the cube, do you have the option of Addition or No Update checked.
if it is No Update, the report might be having a parameter of considering only the most current request. This is possible by using variable of REQUEST ID like "Most Current Data" which is an SAP Exit. In this case, if the cube is compressed the entire data would report as duplicate in your case.
It is always desirable that the cube contains non duplicate data for efficient processing.
Hope it helps.
Regards

Load to a cube

Can I carry out to an init load to a cube and than delete the contents of this load and still have a succesful delta mechanism? Thanks

Do an init without data trasnfer and you are sure that delta will work well.
Hope it helps.

Loading data from Cube to Planning area

Hi,
If I am loading data from a cube to a planning area using transaction TSCUBE,
does the system load data into planning area for the combinations that exist in the cube or does it load for all CVCs?
For example,
I have my CVC as Plant, Material, Customer
If there are 4 CVCs in the POS that were previously generated as
Plant--Material--Customer
01--M1--
C1
01--M2--
C3
01--M2--
C2
01--M4--
C5
If the cube has data like this:
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C1--
10
01--M2C3--
20
01--M2C2--
5
(doesnot have the last combination), then if I use TSCUBE transaction to load data to Planning area from this cube,
is the data loaded as
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C1--
10
01--M2C3--
20
01--M2C2--
5
Only for the 3 combinations that exist in the cube and not load anything for the last one
OR
is the data loaded as
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C1--
10
01--M2C3--
20
01--M2C2--
5
01--M4C5--
0
Load all 4 combinations and send 0 as the cube doesnot have this combination?
Hope I am clear on this question.
Thanks.

Thanks a lot Vinod, Srinivas and Harish. The reason why I am asking you is that we have a scenario where we get this situation.
We initially get data from R/3 to BW to APO like the below:
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C1--
10
Later when the customer is changed or bought out by somebody C1 is changed to C2. Some times when the business doesnot know who the customer is initially they just put C1 as dummy and then after sometime replace it by C2. Then the new record coming in is as follows:
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C2--
10
BW can identify changes in transaction data but not in Master data. What I mean by this is when Qty. 10 changes from 10 to 20, the system can identify it in deltas.
If the customer (master data) changes to C2 from C1, the system thinks it's a new record all together then if I use delta loads, it gets me the following:
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C1--
10
01--M1C2--
10
If I am looking at Plant and Material Level, my data is doubled.
So we are planning to do a full load that works like this:
1. Initial data like the below:
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C1--
10
The CVC is created and the planning area has Qty.10
Then we delete the contents of cube and do a full load into the cube with changed customer
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C2--
10
This time a new CVC is created. Then we have another 10 loaded into Planning area.
If the system loads all CVCs, then the it would send
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C1--
0
01--M1C1--
10
If the system loads only combinations in cube,
then it loads
Plant--MaterialCustomer----Qty.
01--M1C2--
10
But the system already has another 10 for Customer C1 duplicating the values.
We are trouble in the second case.
We had to go fr this solution instead of realignment as our business has no way pf knowing that C1 was replaced by C2.
Hope I am clear.

Getting error while scheduling load from one cube to another

Hi,
In which version you are.
If you in 7.0 then have you checked in DTP.
Just logooff from your server, and again relog, and try to load once again.

Getting an error while trying to load data into cube

Hello,
I am trying to load data into cube but it gives me following error:
fiscal year variant not expected.
Can someone tell what could be done on fiscal year
Cheers
Jim.

Hi,
May be you have not mapped anything to fiscal variant or not included fiscal variant in the cube but you have used fiscal period inside it.
You should load fiscal variant if you wanna use fiscal period.
Map fiscal variant to a constant K4 or from the source if present and then see the result.
Generally it is K4 except for FI-CO cubes .
In the transfer rules, select field '0fiscvarnt' 'Tp' click
Enter K4 for Constant................Save and Activate
Iam sure you'd fix the issue.

Your data is in lowercase.. either change the data to UPPERCASE from source..
or delete the request in cube and edit PSA data from lowecase to UPPER CASE if they are few records only.
or make the infoobject setting lowecase checked,

I need format for data in excel file load into info cube to planning area.

Hi gurus,
I need format for data in excel file load into info cube to planning area.
can you send me what should i maintain header
i have knowledge on like
plant,location,customer,product,history qty,calander
100,delhi,suresh,nokia,250,2011211
if it is right or wrong can u explain and send me about excel file format.
babu

Hi Babu,
The file format should be same as you want to upload. The sequence of File format should be same communication structure.
Like,
Initial columns with Characteristics (ex: plant,location,customer,product)
date column (check for data format) (ex: calander)
Last columsn with Key figures (history qty)
Hope this helps.

Inventory data load from Inventory Cube to another Copy Cube

Hello Experts,
I am trying to load Inventory data from the Inventory cube(say YCINV) to a copy cube say YCOPY_CINV(copy of Inventory cube), but the results appear inconsistant when I compare the reports on these 2 cubes. I am trying to populate a fiield in copy cube so that I can populate the same data back to the original cube with the new field in it, I am doing this reload back and forth for historical data purpose only.
I have seen lot of posts as how to run the setups for Inventory data, but my case does not need to perform set up runs.
Does the note 1426533 solve the issue of loading from one cube to another ? we are on SAP BI 7.01 with SP 06 ,but the note specifies SP 07 ?
I have tried note 375098 to see if it works, but I do not see the options as mentioned from step "Using DTP (BW 7.x)" in BI to perform this note
Please advise on whether to go with implementing note 1426533 or is there any other way to load inventory data from one cube to other.
Regards,
JB

Hi Luis,
Thanks for your reply,
I do not see any setting like Intial stock in DTP except "initial non-cumulative for non- cumulative". I did try using the option "initial non-cumulative for non- cumulative" ,but the results still do not match with the inventory cube data.I do not see the check box for marker in the copy cube (under roll up tab). Please let me know if we can really implement this solution ,i.e. copying from inventory cube to copy cube and then re-loading it back to inventory cube for historical data. Currenlty, I am comparing the queries on these 2 cubes, if the data matches then I can go ahead and implement it in Production, other wise it would not be wise to do so .

JB

Issues using multiple load-config files with ant

Hello,
Not sure if this is the correct place...
I am creating an ant build script to compile our flex application. I am trying to use the default flex-config by doing <load-config filename="${flex.sdkPath}/frameworks/flex-config.xml"/> and project specific config file add the datavisualization module and any other libraries we might need in the future. I am trying to do this as I don't want to modify the flex-config.xml
The issue I keep running into is I get a compiler error saying "unable to locate specified base class 'spark.comonents.application..". if I place the custome load-config file above the adobe default flex-config it gives errors stating it the "SeriesSlide" type
<mxmlc file="${project.sourcePath}/FBApp.mxml"
         output="${project.output.binaryPath}/${project.output.fileName}.swf"
         locale="en_US"
         static-link-runtime-shared-libraries="false"
         static-rsls="false"
         use-network="true"
         accessible="false"
         debug="true">
         <load-config filename="${flex.sdkPath}/frameworks/flex-config.xml"/>
         <load-config filename="C:/Hudson/.hudson/jobs/FB 2.0 Flex/workspace/FBApp/FB-config.xml"/>
         <source-path path-element="${flex.sdkPath}/frameworks/libs"/>
         <source-path path-element="${project.sourcePath}"/>
         <library-path dir="${flex.path}/sdks/${flex.sdkVersion}/frameworks/locale/en_US"
            includes="*"/>
         <library-path dir="${project.libraryPath}"
            includes="*"/>
         <keep-as3-metadata name="Protected"/>
      </mxmlc>
the following is my FB-config.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<flex-config>
   <runtime-shared-library-path>
<path-element>C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plug-in\sdks\4.1.0\frameworks\libs/datavisualization.swc</path-element>
<rsl-url>http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/swz/flex/4.1.0.16076/datavisualization_4.1.0.16076.swz</rsl-url>
<policy-file-url>http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/swz/crossdomain.xml</policy-file-url>
<rsl-url>datavisualization_4.1.0.16076.swz</rsl-url>
<policy-file-url>.</policy-file-url>
   </runtime-shared-library-path>
</flex-config>
It seems to be that the first "load-config" ant runs into is the only one that gets used. When looking around the internet I have multiple cases of where people say they have successfully used multiple load-config files.
This one in particular.
http://flashdevelop.org/community/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=5629&view=previous
If I had to guess on what was wrong I believe my FB-config.xml file is incorrect but I can't find an example of anyones custom configuration file.
Any guidance would be apprecaited.

I am embarrassed to say that your solution answered my question.
I was about 10 min away from rewriting my Ant script to just use the mxmlc.exe directly instead of the mxmlc ant tag. I kept running into the -flex-config+=YourConfig.xml for the command line option but never saw the xml variant.

http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=configuring_environment_3.html
Does Flex have any documenation that shows all the different tags that are available like the Ant documenation?

How to delete perviously loaded request from cube

Hi All,
I am loading a standard cube from r3 w/o PSA through DTP.
1 ) how to delete data automatically from cube w/o using Process chains.( previously we have a facility in Infopackage to delete old loaded data ) .In BI7 how to delete the same automatically.
2) How to schedule the DTP to run on daily basis( w/o process chain ) .I am not able to schedule it via RSRDA ?
What might be the reason ?
Regards
KK

Chivukula,
I'm curious as to why you aren't using the process chains. There's now a "delete overlapping request" process type within rspc.
You are right thought, the DTP does not offer a facility to delete out the old loaded data. This feature is not in BI 7.0
As for scheduling a DTP to run daily, there's no way I know of to run it daily without rspc. Yes I understand that rspc could get very messy but just create a separate holding area, say DAILY DTPS and put your DTP's in there.
Cheers,
Pom

Multiple loader component instances

Hi everyone, I'm having some problems with the loader
component... I'm trying to create multiple loader instances
dynamically, but only the last instance is showing. I can't figure
out how to solve that... I've already tried to use
duplicateMovieClip, and it didin't work also.
This is the code I'm using, thanks in advance!

Thanks everyone, I found the problem.
old code:
createClassObject(mx.controls.Loader, "tempLoader" + i,
1, {contentPath: images[ i ], scaleContent: true, width: 80,
height: 60, _x: ((Stage.width-10)-80), _y: (i*70)});
new code:
createClassObject(mx.controls.Loader, "tempLoader" + i,
i, {contentPath: images[ i ], scaleContent: true, width: 80,
height: 60, _x: ((Stage.width-10)-80), _y: (i*70)});

Loading time to cube

hello all,
i am facing a unique problem.
when loading to the ODs the load takes place successfully but when activating the load it fails but in the monitor it still shows yellow and i am unable to make out where the error is occuring. Also when i am loading to the cube from the ODS it seems to get caught when inserting into the /bi0/smaterial and i am not sure what needs to be done. i ran RSRV on the infocube and checked the SID .
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated
thanks
amit

Hi all,
I checked the status tab of the monitor and it doesnt show me any errors. But it keeps failing when i trying to activate the data. I went to transasction ST22 and saw some runtime error.
it says dbif_rsql_invalid_rsql .
Also checked the rsrv for 0material and it says the following error 1 value from S table does not exist in P table. There is no option to correct the error in RSRv.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
thanks
