Mysterious Infoobject

Hi Experts,
can u please solve the mystery below.
I Checked in the metadata repository for a an Infoobject. The metadata repository says it is being used in an ODS, but when i look at the Contents tab in Manage Data Targets for that ODS, I cant find it. Moreover when i run a query on this ODS i am able to see in the query. also it has some data in the query. can anyone help me with this .. Thank u
Dave

Hi Dave,
You can check from the Infoobject maintanence (RSD1) from where used list.
And it is possible that the InfoObject is a reference Object of another infoobject.
If you are getting values in Query check the Technical name for the field and validate within the ODS fields by selecting all Charecterstic and Keyfigure, sometimes you may not be choosing all to display.
Hope this helps..
Best Regards,
DMK

Please help me solve a MultiProvider mystery...

Greetings,
Happy autumn to everyone! I have a weird situation with a MultiProvider. I added a key figure to the MultiProvider. Let's call the InfoObject ZKEY_FIGURE.
In dev and QA, there are no problems. In production, when I look at the MultiProvider from RSA1, I see ZKEY_FIGURE in the MultiProvider, and I see that it is correctly assigned to an InfoObject in a source InfoProvider.
BUT... when I open up the query designer and create a query against the MultiProvider, ZKEY_FIGURE does not show up anywhere in the query designer. It is not under key figures on the left-hand side or anywhere else. In other words, it is in the MultiProvider, but the query designer can't see it. Therefore, I can't use ZKEY_FIGURE in a query.
What do I need to do to make the query designer see that ZKEY_FIGURE is in the MultiProvider?
Thanks,
Sarah

Thanks to everybody for the replies! I truly appreciate it!
I fixed the problem by re-activating the MultiProvider in dev (even though it was already active) and re-transporting. That fixed it. I really don't know what caused this issue or why re-transporting an already-active object would fix it, but I guess it is just a mystery. I am very happy it is resolved!
Here are the answers to the questions you posed in your replies:
Question from Prathish:
Can you just try regenerating your query once again and check if the Keyfigure is displayed
Answer:
Thanks, Prathish. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "regenerate", but I did open several queries against the MultiProvider in production and run them. Whenever I did this, the key figure was not displayed in the query designer.
Also, I created queries from scratch in production. They had the same problem in which they key figure would not display.
Question from SSS:
Have you checked technical consistancies using RSRV?
Answer:
Thanks, SSS. I didn't try that, but I will make a note of that transaction for next time and appreciate the suggestion. Thanks!
Question from prashanthk:
Are you sure the key figure assignment(identification) is done in the multiprovider?
If its there in the Infocube and not visible in MP means once Cross check the identification of KF?
also check for the data is displayed for this KF using the display data or LISTCUBE transaction.
Answer:
Yes, I've triple-checked the assignment, and my colleagues have also looked at it, because I wanted a second pair of eyes to make sure I wasn't missing something.
I didn't try display data or LISTCUBE, but thanks for suggesting them. I will remember that for next time!
Comment from Anass M:
close all query designer instances
activate the multiprovider again (tcode rsa1, change, activate)
check if something wrong in tcode rsrv.
Answer:
Thanks, Anass. Re-transporting fixed it, so I didn't get the chance to look at rsrv, but I will try that next time.
Question from UPEDNEKAR:
In your post, you are mentioning that when you 'created' a query on the MP you could not see the Key figure. Now , did you created the Query directly on Production server ? How about creating a Query on the Dev. server and checking out if you are encountering similar issue ?
Answer:
Thanks, UPEDNEKAR. When I created the query in production, I could not see the key figure. When I created a query in dev, I could see the key figure. When I transported that query to Q, I could see the key figure. When I transported that query to P, the transport went to P with no problems (return code 0). But... when I opened up the query in production, I got a message that said the key figure did not exist and I had to click "Repair" to remove that key figure from the query.
Thanks again to everyone! This is what makes the online community so great! Have a good rest of the week!

Why do I have mysterious cellular data usage (Verizon) every 6 hours on all 3 of my iphone 5's?

I have recently uncovered mysterious cellular usage on three different iPhones. I am a Verizon customer and discovered this by examining the cellular data use logs. What I found are a long series of mysterious data usage logs. I have visited the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store 3 times now to log notes and discuss the issue. It is being escalated.
The characterstics are as follows:
All my family phones have the appropriate IOS and hardware updates (verified by the GeniusBar at my local Apple Store).
This is occuring across three phones, which happen to all be iphone 5. Two are 5 and the other a new 5s. We do have one iphone 4 in the family but the issue (so far as I can tell), is not happening on it.
One iphone 5 has IOS 7, the other IOS 6. The new 5s has of course IOS 7.
Mysterious data use happens even while connected to wifi.
Each mysterious data use log entry is exactly 6 hours apart. For example: 2:18 AM, 8:18 AM, 2:18 PM, 8:18 PM, 2:18 AM ... etc. It cycles AM and PM, same times, for a day to many days until some condition causes it to change (evolve).
The times evolve. One day it could be cycling through at one time series, then it changes to another time sequence and continues until the next condition.
The data usage is anywhere from a few K to many MB. The largest I've seen is over 100 MB.
The logs clearly show these usages are not due to human interaction. It is a program.
If cellular connection is used frequently (by the owner), the pattern is hard to pick out. Luckily, my family member is very good about only using wifi whenever possible, so these mysterious use patterns are easy to pick out.
Verizon allows access to 90 days worth of data logs, so I downloaded and analyzed them. This has been happening for at least 90 days. I have found 298 instances of mysterious use out of 500 total connections to cellular. A total of 3.5 GB of mysterious cellular data has been recorded as used in that 90 days by this phone alone. Only .6 GB of the total cellular data use is legitimate, meaning by the person.
This issue is occuring across three different phones. Two are iPhone 5, and the third is a recently purchased iPhone 5s. The 5s I have not touched beyone the basic startup. I have left it alone on a desk for 3 days, and looking at the logs, the mysterious data use in the same pattern is occuring.
So ... I am speaking to both sides, Verizon and Apple to get answers. Verizon puts their wall up at data usage. It doesn't matter how it is being used, you simply need to pay for it. Yes, the evidence I have gathered is getting closer to someting on Verizon's end.
Before pressing in that direction, I am hoping someone reading this may recognize this issue as a possible iPhone 5 issue ... OR ... you, right now, go look at your data usage logs available through your carrier's web account, and see if you can pick out a pattern of mysterious use. Look especially at the early morning instances when you are most likely sleeping.
I am hoping this is a simple issue that has a quick resolution. I'm looking for the "ooohhh, I see that now ..." But I am starting to think this might be much bigger, but the fact is, most customers rarely or never look at their data usage details, much less discover mysterious use patterns.
The final interesting (maybe frightening part) thing about all this is that I discovered while talking to Verizon ... they do not divulge which direction the data is going. This goes for any use, mysterious or legitimate. Is cellular data coming to your phone, or leaving it? Is something pulling data from your phone? We know that it is possible to build malware apps, but the catch with my issue is that it is also happening on a brand new iphone 5s with nothing downloaded to it.
Thanks for your time

Thanks for the replies. It took a while not hearing anything so thought I was alone. I have done many of the suggestions already. The key here is that it occurs on both phones with apps, and phones still packaged in a box.
A Genius Bar supervisor also checked his Verizon data usage log and found the same 6 hour incremental use. Suprisingly, he did not express much intrigue over that. Maybe he did, but did not show it.
I think the 6 hour incremental usage is the main issue here. I spoke with Verizon (again) and they confirmed that all they do is log exactly when the phone connected to the tower and used data. The time it records is when the usage started. I also found out that the time recorded is GMT.
What is using data, unsolicited, every 6 hours?
Why does it change?
Why does it only happen on the iPhone 5 series and not the 4?
Since no one from Apple seems to be chiming in on this, and I have not received the promised calls from Apple tech support that the Genius Bar staff said I was suppose to receive, it is starting to feel like something is being swept under the rug.
I woke up the other day with another thought ... What application would use such large amounts of data? Well ... music, video, sound and pictures of course. Well ... what would someone set automatically that is of any use to them? hmmm ... video, pictures, sound. Is the iPhone 5 succeptible to snooping? Can an app be buried in the IOS that automatically turns on video and sound recording, and send it somewhere ... every 6 hours? Chilling. I noted that the smallest data usage is during the night when nothing is going on, then it peaks during the day. The Genius Bar tech and I looked at each other when I drew this sine wave graph on the log print outs during an appointment ...

How to delete multiple InfoObjects in one shot?

Hello Experts,
Is there any way to delete a bunch of InfoObjects / ODSs in one shot?
Scenarios:
1. We have thousands of custom IO which are no use any more and we want to get rid of these IO to save space. How to do it?
2. We have thousands of custom ODS too which need to be deleted. We want to delete ODS which are not used any more and also the InfoObjects in ODSs which are not used by any other ODS or any other places. How do I do that in one shot?
BTW way our BW is 3.1 version but will be upgrading soon.
Regards,
Mau

Hi,
goto RSD1 and mark the option "Free Selection of IObjs"
Hit the Maintain button In the next screen Select your IObjs to be maintained (at this stage the system will lock the selected IObj !!)
In the next screen mark the IObjs you want to delete
Then Menu Characteristics / Delete (shift + F2)
this should work.
Alternatively, try developping an ABAP based on function module RSDG_IOBJ_MULTI_DELETE.
hope this helps...

Concatenation of Data from 4 infoobjects into a single cell in Bex Report

Hi,
I have loaded ODS with the description data. The source system for loading the ODS is the flat file. The ODS data should be a replica of the flat file.
In the flat file, there is a description field corresponding to a particular ID. This Description is greater than the standard 60 char length. So, I had to split the description while loading the flat file using single line routine in the Transfer Structure.
So, while loading different the data, I split the description field data from the flat file into 4 infoobjects and the flat file data was loaded into the ODS.
Now, from the reporting point of view, I need to display the entire description data from the 4 info-objects into a single cell in the Bex report.
Please suggest a solution for this.

Error while assigning constant to infoobject in open hub transformation

While assigning constants(in rule details) to infoobject in a transformation in a open hub I am getting an error "The Object Name is not allowed to be empty"
Can anyone tell my why this is happening? What should I do now?

Hi,
In the transformation, have you connected that rule to any target field of your destination? If not, then do that and then try to create the routine.

Error while activating all inactive infoobjects in DEV

Hai
Im trying to activate all inactive infoobject by using program RSDG_IBOJ_ACTIVATE. But it says the following error
System error in lock management
Message no. AD025

A system error has occurred in the lock management function.
The system was unable to determine whether a lock entry existed for the selected object.
System Response
The selected object could not be locked.
Only display mode can be used.
Procedure
Make a note of the error code and inform your system administrator.
why it is like this
how can i activate all inactive infoobjects in development server.
kumar

Hi,
It seems objects are locked in transport request. Check the 'object directory entry' for the object and find out the transport request/task under which objects are locked. Remove the objects from TR or release the request and then try to activate.
Hope it helps.

MASS CREATION OF INFOOBJECTS IN BI 7.0

Hello Gurus,
Here is my scenario:
we have more than 100 new Z fields in R/3 (Tables: KONV, KONP, VBRP) and we are populating those. We maintained the Datasources with that fields. Now we need to develop new infoobjects in BW for those Z fields. Is there any possible way for mass creation of infoobjects.
I searched about this, but most of them were used only for 3.5 data source.(eg: CTBW_META - transaction for mass creation of infoobjects in bw 3.5)
Please anyone help me in solving this !
Thanks in advance .

Hi,
One option I thought of, but never applied in practice. Create an excel with all the field related information in the structure of table,
RSDIOBJ Directory of all InfoObjects
RSDCHABAS Basic Characteristics (for Characteristics,Time Characteristics, and Units)
*RSKYF Key Figures
RSDTIM Time Characteristics
RSDUNI Units*
And upload this table with the flat using function module etc.
But then you would need to update below tables to with relevant details.
RSDIOBJT Texts of InfoObjects
RSDIOBJ Directory of all InfoObjects
RSDIOBJT Texts of InfoObjects
RSDATRNAV Navigation Attributes
RSDATRNAVT Navigation Attributes
RSDBCHATR Master Data Attributes
RSDCHABAS Basic Characteristics (for Characteristics,Time Characteristics, and Units)
RSDCHA Characteristics Catalog
RSDDPA Data Package Characteristic
RSDIOBJCMP Dependencies of InfoObjects
RSKYF Key Figures
RSDTIM Time Characteristics
RSDUNI Units

SAP R/3 Fields to BW InfoObjects Mapping Documentation

Hello everyone,
As a newbie, one of many challenges that I face is to map SAP R/3 fields to its corresponding InfoObjects in BW. I've learned that we can run transaction SE11 and view table RSOSFIELDMAP, in order to know the mapping between OLTP Source Fields and InfoObjects.
However, there are many fields that have not been mapped in this table, like PAYR-CHECT, PAYR-ZBNKN and PAYR-ZBNKL, to name a few.
So I just wonder, has anyone out there compiled this mapping into a document or published it on any web site?
Appreciate if you could let me know about this.
Thanks!

Hi Fulham,
In help.sap.com, you can check out the datasource and the fields mapped from which table. Just check the business content section.
eg. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7a/c3143c26b8bc00e10000000a114084/frameset.htm and click on any of the available links under datasource.
I find this extremely helpful when I need to find out the objects and the tables. Hope this helps.
Cheers,

Overwrite data of master data infoobject

Hi all,
We have one master data infoobject ZASRYHMA. This infoobject does not have any attrbiutes but it has two compounding fields ZSITE and 0DISTR_CHAN.
Now customer has a requirement in which value of ZASRYHMA can change for a particular site and distribution channel. Generally if this value changes then system creates a new entry in tables /bic/pzasryhma and /bic/szasryhma.
What they want is to overwrite the existing entry.
Is it possible to achieve? It's a master data infoobject.
Please provide your kind help.
Regards,
Nilima Rodrigues

Hi,
You have three fields as key field in table as shown below along with values,
ZASRYHMA     ZSITE         0DISTR_CHAN
A-1                     B-1            C-1
A-2                     B-2            C-2
now if you want to change the value of say second row to
A-3                    B-2             C-2
right?
This is not possible just by overwritting in the info-object master data. Because these are key-fields system will treat A-3 as new value and create new entry, on top of this your A-2 master data values must have been used in transactional data.
Only way I can think of is to delete the transactional data where ever A-2 is used and then delete ZASRYHMA master data and then upload master data for ZASRYHMA with new values. And then transacional data.

Unable to provide input value to InfoObject in SEM-BCS

Hello BI Experts,
I have created an infoobject 'ABC' in BI and have flagged 'With Master Data' and 'With Text'. This infoobject has an navigational attribute 'XYZ'(XYZ also has 'With Master Data' and 'With Text').
When I go to T.Code UCWB(BCS Workbench), I could able to see the infoobject 'ABC' and when I try to create master data for 'ABC', I do not see the input field for 'XYZ'. I want to input values in Infoobject 'XYZ' through this screen(SEM-BCS) and not through BI(right-click on infoobject 'Maintain Master Data). Please let me know, if I am missing anything.

Hi Shekar
I find the ICD setup very 'picky'! If you get one thing wrong, it doesn't work. I have detailed below the steps I usually advise people to tek. Check your setup and see if this helps.
1. Define Plan Type, Compensation Category = Others.
2. Define Plan. Link to Plan Type. Plan Usage = May not be in program. On Not in program Tab - define sequence, currency, enrollment rate (per pay period?), activity reference period (Monthly). Your settings may need to be different. On Plan details tab, enter plan years.
3. Plan enrollment requirements. On the general tab, plan sub tab, make sure the method = EXPLICIT. this allows the user to enter an input value for the ICD. THIS MAY WELL BE THE SOURCE OF YOUR PROBLEM!
Make sure the CERTIFICATION region is UNTICKED. This can also cause ICDs not to work.
ALLOWS UNRESTRICTED ENROLLMENT must be TICKED. Otherwise there is no eligibility to the ICD.
On the rates subregion, make sure the run strt date is set to ENTERABLE.
4. standard Rates form. Make sure the ACTIVITY TYPE and TAX TYPE are entered. Select the ELEMENT and the INPUT VALUE and TICK the ELEMENT AND INPUT VALUE REQUIRED field.
On the processing Information tab - TICK ASSIGN ON ENROLMENT, DISPLAY ON ENROLLMENT and PROCESS EACH PAY PERIOD. Enter PER PAY PERIOD AMOUNT in VALUE PASSED TO PAYROLL and OTHER in COMPENSATION CATEGORY.
Let me know if this works!

Unable to generate "Export data source" for Master data infoobject

Hi Gurus,
I'm in BW 3.5
I need to generate "Export data source" for a master data info object.
I followed below steps:
I ticked the checkbox "Characterist. is export data source" in the master data Info object maintenance screen.
In the Infosource area, for the desired Infoobject --> Right click --> Generate export datasource --> a dialog box displays saying "The generation of DataSource was successful"
Problem:
Even after refreshing, etc.. I couldn't find the generated datasource 8**** for the above master data. I also tried to replicate the datasource from the myself source system, but couldn't find it even there. I don't know where the generated export data source is hiding ???
Could anyone please help ????
Thanks,
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
I guess that after creating an export datasource for infoobject this DS should appear in the RSA1-Source systems - MYSELF - datasource overview (with name starting with 8). Since it's a datamart, it should appear also as system generated infosource. And in this case you would be able to assign in URs of data target the appropriate infosource (make sure that in Infoproviders tab of RSA1 you have inserted your infoobject as a data target).
However, there are some bugs related to export data source. CHeck if you see you export data source in RSA6.
If you don't see it - consider applying OSS Note #816892 - "30BSP26: Export DS for master data is not generated".
Note #876845 - "30BSP29: InfoObject change: Export DataSource not adjusted" is also may be useful.

Unable to add new Infoobject from Infoprovider to multiprovider

Hello Experts,
I have a multiprovider which joins four different Cubes. Now, I added a new Infoobject to one of those Cubes but I am unable to transfer that InfoObject from the Cube to the multiprovider. I tried the identify characteristics option in the edit multiprovider mode but I was unable to see that Infoobject in the base cube to which it is added. The only unusual thing about this Infoobject is that it is not linked to any source field and set to initial in the update rules as I am populating it using a ABAP code in the end routine. I am not sure if this has got to do anything with the problem
Any help in this regards will be appreciated and points will be duly assigned.
Thanks
Rishi

HI,
Try this,
Deactivate and activate the MP again.
Also Try this Program,
RSDG_MPRO_ACTIVATE
Hope this helps...

USB 6009 - mysterious problem

Have mysterious problems with my new USB 6009.
I'm using LabView 7 on MacOS-X 10.3.8.
All vi's of DAQmx show "ERROR 15 - Ressource not found".
Then I tested:
- "lsdaq" shows the device
- "nidatalogger" works
- "mxbaseconfig" doesn't recocgnize it!
I realy have no idea know what to do now?
Thank you for helping.
Greetings,
Stephan

I happend to stumble over the same issue and found a solution.
The problem really seems to be the firmware in the USB-device. There is
only one way (I think) to make USB600x devices work with linux:
You have to start MAX (on a Windows-box) , go to tools - NI-DAQmx configuration - NI-DAQmx USB Driver Selector.
Press "Switch" and select the BASE-Driver for your USB-Device. This
seems to write something into the device's flash memory. After this
procedure you can use the device with linux and DAQmxBase
Funny thing is, mxbaseconfig still can't see it, but nidatalogger finds it.
Hope that helps, even though this thread seems to be rather old...
