Non-updating of commodity code in the VEFU or document

Question

Hi,
Could anyone help  me solve the problem as to why the document in the VEFU is not updated after the material master had been corrected already.
Thanks

Answer 1

If u are sure that, the old 0COMP_CODE, 0PLANT keys aren't longer valid then better to delete master data (with SIDs) from 0COMP_CODE, 0PLANT and do a fresh extract from R/3.
If data targets (0FIAP_C03, 0FIAR_O03 etc) are already loaded.. then deleting master data is bit time taking process. U have the following options..
Option 1:
If it is development system, simply u can delete data from infoproviders and infoobject (0COMP_CODE, 0PLANT) and reload.
If it is production system, u can do the same before that daily load starts... (our process chains run only on working days based on factory calender...So, we handle these kind of issues on Sundays i.e. before the daily load PC starts)...
Option 2:
If u have less no.of values (for 0COMP_CODE, 0PLANT) to delete, then follow below process to delete master data.
While deleting particular value from any infoobject (say 0COMP_CODE), and the log (SLG1)says, SID exists in DIM table (like /BIC/0FIAP_C031).
First delete (selective deletion) that value from cube (0FIAP_C03)
Use Tcode RSRV  Tests in Transaction RSRV  All Elementary Tests  Transaction Data  Entries Not Used in the dimension of an InfoCube (Dbl Click)
From the right side window, expand u201CEntries Not Used in the Dimension of an InfoCubeu201D Node &
Enter InfoCube (like 0FIAP_C03), click u201CTransferu201D
Now, click u201CExecuteu201D (Toolbar)u2026 and the results displayed in the right side window..
Now, click u201CCorrect erroru201D (Toolbar)
======================================================================
Now, try to delete same value from infoobject (say 0COMP_CODE), and if the log says SID used in some other DIM table, follow the above process.
If the log says, the SID uesed in DSO/Cube, then goto manage (of DSO/Cube) and do the selective deletion.
