Open Hub - Infosets as source and 'template fields' button

Hi all,
Two questions re Open Hub on 04s (we are on SP8). I've surfed OSS, help.sap.com and SDN with no luck re answers to these:
- I've defined an infoset as my source of an open hub destination. It appears I must create a transformation, but it generates no proposal, and I'm not sure how/if I can add a virtual object (such as an infoset) as a source in a transformation. It appears that the DTP requires this transformation to be defined. Am I missing something? So far, testing on all other objects has been successful.
- How does one use the button 'Template Fields' when defining fields in an OHD? I expected to see options to insert groups of fields (ex. all fields of an infoobject and its attributes), but I don't see any options available.
Thanks!
Lonnie

Update:
I was able to create the transformation (issue found btw keyboard and chair).
New problem: I am unable to activate my DTP. When choosing the source for my DTP, I get a popup window (as normal) to choose the possible sources, but the infoset is not available for selection. Only the 'pieces' of the infoset (the two DSO's that comprise the infoset), and this doesn't help me because my source is the infoset, not the indivudual tables of it.
Also, I cannot change the extraction mode to FULL. Only delta is available.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Issue in mapping the same source and target fields

Hi All,
I am working on PI 7.0 and currently I am connecting to PI 7.0 via citrix desktop . Problem here is : in the mapping , direct mapping option that is available to map the same source and target fields is disabled . I do know that this is due to some java version issue .
What I want to know is there any possibilty of solving this issue without installing an updated java version ?
Regards
Vinay P.

I've faced the same for many times and all of that were due to Java version.
1st of all, you have to check the authorizations you have. If you have enough (DEVELOPER_J2EE, CONTENT_ORGANIZER_J2EE, and so), and - obvious but very often forgotten - you have to assure you're trying to change it in the message mapping change mode On.
Then, last shot should be downgrade your Java version.
The 1.4.2 JRE version allow you to use not only the Mapp the Identical field but also Dependencies, Clear Mapping and some other tools/buttons. As mentioned above, if there's a fix in the new Java releases, I do not know (hope so) and would appreciate if you could let us know.
Tks.

Open hub destination of text and attribute for Functional Area

Hi Expert
I have a requirement to accommodate both attribute ( 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR) and text ( 0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT ) for functional area in open hub destination .For this a DSO has been created from both 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR, 0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT data sources .Problem is that DSO has 0FUNCT_AREA ( Functional Area ) as only key fields . So text for both english ( EN ) and Dutch ( NL) for particular 0FUNCT_AREA not getting loaded .If we assign both 0LANGU and 0FUNCT_AREA as composite key of dso , data from attribute transformation is loaded as blank as there is no language filed in attribute data source ( 0FUNCT_LOC_ATTR ). Please let me know how can I design to accommodate both text for different language and functional area for open hub destination .
I know that I can create separate open hub destination for master data TEXT and Attribute.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards
Saikat

HI Saikat,
You can create an additional characteristics counter and make it a key field in the DSO.After that we can populate this characteristics in the end routine .It value would increase by 1 everytime different text comes for the same functional area.
Sample code
data: counter type n,
w_farea type /bio/oifunc_area.
Sort result_package by func_area.
count =0.
*checking whether we have the same functional area or we have a different functional area.
Loop at result_package assigning <Result_fields>.
if w_farea is initial or w_farea = <result_fields>-func_area.
count = count +1.
else
count =1.
endif.
w_farea= <result_fields>-func_area.
<Result_fields>-zcount = count.
ENDLOOP.
Clear w_farea.
This way the value of counter would get increased by one everytime a new text comes for the same functional area.We can have any number of texts for the same functional area by this method.
The only issue would be when some delta update comes for the existing text in this method.If you are doing a full load to the DSO from the datasource, then there would be no issue with this method.

Access Violation when trying to read from Open Hub in BW

Hi,
Can someone help me out. I use BODS version 14.1.1.210. I have setup the connection to BW source and imported metadata for my OpenHub - no problem.

Hello Erik,
not sure about it, but did you see this post some hours after yours?
DS 4.1 job aborts with Access Violation
Also, did you check ST22 to see if it generates any dump?
And if you're able to check the BODS log files, it might me helpful. They're located at %LINK_DIR%\log directory. Check the names with the execution of the job.
Hope it helps!

Open Hub with DataSource as Source of Transformation

Hello,
I have created an Open Hub Destination to a database table and activated it. I now try to create a transformation with the new open hub as the destination and a custom datasource as the source of the transformation.
I get an error message that says "Cannot connect DataSource to an open hub destination". We are on BI 2004s service pack 12. I was able to perform this task successfully on previous support packs.
For instance, I cannot open an existing transformation from a datasource to the open hub that was created before the application of the support packs. I get the same error message.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help,
Jason

Hi Michael,
I was loading directly from the DataSource into a database table because I was only going to use the table as a lookup table in a transformation. The data doesn't really need to be in a BI object.
I did the same procedure one other time while we were on service pack 6, and it worked fine.
Anyway, I have loaded the lookup data into a DSO and everything is fine. Thanks for your helpful response.

Jason

LSMW Source and Field Mapping

Hi,
I'm trying to use the LSMW. What is the fastest way to maintain the source field and relationship?? Is it possible to define the source field and length in a text file and load it in the LSMW??
Regards,
Kit

Hi Kit,
u can create source fields in faster way.
menupath
In the 3rd step i.e., Maintain source fields
source fields -> table maintenance
here u can fill all the fields at a time.
u can also maintain the fields in a file and copy and paste them in the Table maintenance .
In 5th step i.e., Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules
Extras -> Auto field Mapping
Now u get the auto field mapping setting pop-up.
click ok.
Now u Get the auto field mapping proposel pop-up.
Here check Target field and Source field and click on Accept proposel push button for all the fields.
with this the source and target field mapping are done automatically.

OpenHub using Infoset as source

Hi gurus,
which is the best approach to use an infoset as a source of an OpenHub destination? Any experiences on this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Inaki,
You can create openhub destination based on Infoset, I dont' have any realtime exp. but I just read throug tech. documents,
1) Create a Open hub destination, on the same screen it will ask you the template. This template will be used to select the fields for your openhub destination.
2) Once you select all the fields and create open hub destination activate it and goto context menu from RSA1 to create transformation on this open Hub destination.
3) Select the source of transformation as InfoSet, do the field mapping.
4) Create DTP and you are ready to do data loading.

ABAP routine in Open hub transformation

Hello Experts,
My BW consultant created a Open Hub service. For creating a .csv file from a cube.
For that he had a transformation defined between the source and destination fields.
I was asked to write a routine to bring the negative sign to front for one of the fields.
I wrote the following code.
>    DATA V_OUT(25).
>
>   CLEAR V_OUT.
>
>    V_OUT = SOURCE_FIELDS-G_AVVWHC.
>
>      CALL FUNCTION 'CLOI_PUT_SIGN_IN_FRONT'
>        CHANGING
>          VALUE = V_OUT.
>
>      RESULT = V_OUT.
there was no error in the syntax check.
Now, when the open hub is created/ran without routine(direct assignment) it works fine.
But when the above code is ran, it TIMED OUT!!!!
I am unable to find any reason for that.
Could anybody please provide some guidance on this.
Regards,
DNP

Open Hub Destination question

Hi,
We want to be able to extract data from a cube and would like to use Open Hub Destination for it. We also want to extract deltas.
The question is ..
Should we be making a single info package for this with delta capability ..
or 2 separate info packages .. 1 for full mode and another for delta mode.
Regards
Vandana

Hi,
Yes what you said it is write
from which cube do u want to retract the daat that cube will be the source
first create the open hub in RSBO tcode and
in open hub destination select aht and create the transformation between the table( to where u want to export)
then create the DTP between the cube to the table
and directly u can use the delta DTP first all the records will come and later onle delta records will be updated.

Open Hub Destination error

Hi,
I am working on Open Hub (first time ofcourse). And performing following steps:-
Modeling>Open Hub> InfoArea> Create Open Hub Destination> Output to File .csv. field names>DIrectory> activate> Create transformation> activate Transformations>Create DTP..Here I am getting an error that destination Open Hub is not active.
Can anyone please tell me am i missing any step here?
Thanks

Hi...
Always bear in mind that the OHD, once created, should be saved and activated, before creating any transformations or DTPs for it.
And each time the OHD is changed, all the objects corresponding to it... (The transformations and the DTPs) should be activated.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Open Hub - Add header line to file on server.

Hi All,
How can I add header description to the file being generated in the server from the Open Hub. The open hub generates a fiule with data fields only, however i want a header line.
Example
IF my data fields are displayed as below,
John M 12 2344
Thomas M 17 8960
Lin F 10 8467
Jan M 12 4323
I need to add, description as NAME above John, Thomas, Lin etc.
as GENDER above M,M,F etc.
as CODE above 12, 17,10 etc. and
as EXTENTION above 2344, 8960,8467 etc
Can anyone help.
Points will be assigned

Hi,
i don't think this can be done even in BADI.
what you can do is once the Infospoke run is complete and the file generated , run a custom report for this.
in the custom report open a file dataset , write header and then close the file dataset.
then again open the file dataset in append mode , writhe the file that the infospoke generated and close the file dataset.
include this custom program after you infospoke run in the process chain.

Neeraj.

Open Hub fetching data from Change log table

Hi Gurus,
I have a scenario where in I have an Open Hub destination whose source is a DSO, and we are sending data into SAP Data services. We found that the data being sent is from the change log table. Is this how an Open Hub with DSO as a source works ? Or is there any possible way we can send data from the Active table of the DSO, when the DTP is run.
Kindly help. Thanks in advance !
Regards
Snehith

Hi,
For Extraction from the DataStore Object, we have the following options for Delta init Extraction:
Active Table (with Archive)
The data is read from the active table and from the archive or from a near-line storage if one exists. You can choose this option even if there is no active data archiving process yet for the DataStore object.
Active Table (Without Archive)
The data is only read from the active table. If there is data in the archive or in a near-line storage at the time of extraction, this data is not extracted.
Change Log
The data is read from the change log of the DataStore object
We can select any of these options for data trasnfer.

Sample source code for fields mapping in expert routine

Hi All
Iam writing the expert routine from dso to cube for example I have two fields in dso FLD1,FLD2
same fields in infocube also ,can any body provide me sample abap code to map source fields to target fields in expert routine,your help will be heighly appreciatble,it's an argent.
regards
eliaz

Basic would be ;
RESULT_FIELDS -xxx = <SOURCE_FIELDS> -xxx
you have the source fields as source, and result fields for as the target. In between you can check some conditions as in other routines of transformation.
BEGIN OF tys_SC_1, shows your source fields ( in your case DSO chars and key figures)
BEGIN OF tys_TG_1, , shows your result fields ( in your case Cube characteristics)
Hope this helps

Open Hub - Change from File to Database table

Hello Experts;
I want to change the Open Hub Service that we create from File to Database table.
We are using the Delta Update. However, after I change the Open Hub, Activate the transformation and DTP, when I run it, I don't have any value in the table.
If I run a new delta into my cube, in the table I only get the data from delta.
Can anyone knows how to upload all the requests that I have in my cube for the first time I run the delta DTP?
Thanks and regards;
Ricardo

Create a new Full DTP and execute, so that you can dump all of the current contents of the InfoCube into the table and push/pull that table to the target prior to the next delta retraction.
