Performance in Updating a Master Data

Hi gurus,
I'm confused about the architecture of our project...We used to have a functional who can easily guide me what to do... but now I have to understand the flow...
My client has a third party repository db. We are thinking of transfering those data to SAP db or Web. So everytime there's a modificaton in the 3rd Party repository, say Vendor Name, it could easily retrieve or update the Vendor Dropdown List (RFC). If we will use 3rd Party-> SAP is it possbile or easy to have a real time or batch input? Though batch input is not advisable because it would take time before you can proceed for the updated vendor list.
What can I suggest to the client?
Points fo the helpful ideas. thanks!

hi,
>>>>So from this solution,I have to create customized RFC
no, you can use stadard BAPI RFC to vendor creation or change
unless you need to do some special processing
in this case I'd suggest to create an RFC wrapper for standard RFC
(in which you will do your processing and at the end call standard BAPI)
you can also post an IDOC from your NET application to R3
this will give you one great feature - error handling and monitoring
you will be able to monitor those vendor changes in transaction WE02
so it would look like this:
3rd party -> web service -> net -> IDOC -> R3
Personally I'd recommend IDOC option (for mentioned reasons)
and not RFC if possible but the it's your call

Remote and direct update of master data at the same time

Data load error during updation of master data

Dear all,
While updating the master data from the PSA , the following error is appearing and the load fails.
"The time interval ['20050313'/'20050313'] & (from/to) for the data
records 1 & and 2 & overlaps in characteristic 0EQUIPMENT &."
What could be the reason for this error and how to correct the same.
I am able to understand that the valid from and the valid to date are same. in R/3 whenever a change record is created for the equipment the valid from and the valid to date will be the same as shown below.
Creation of record (for example today) valid from :- 02.06.2008 and valid to 31.12.9999.
Change of record (for example tommorrow) Valid from :- 03.06.2008 and valid to 31.12.9999
In the above case the valid to date of the creation data will automatically change from 31.12.9999 to 03.06.2008.
How could this be solved.
Regards,
M.M

Hi Magesh,
Please look at /BIC/*Equipment table in SE16.
Find the record with a key = ********* and notice what values have Date_from and Date_to fields. The interval they determine, overlap with ur date_to and date_from.
You need to supply correct date_to & date_from values.
thanks
Assign points if this helps
Note: this is a common scenario in time dependendent master data.....it happens because you have two records for the same values of master data and also they have overlapping time interval.....you cannot have two values of master data at the same time.

Problem updating infoobject master data from a dso.

Hi all,
i'm updating the master data of an infoobject from another ods, the two table have the same key.
When i update the infoobject with full repair i get errors about duplicate records and the data load stops, when i delete the request and launch the infopackage again all goes well but it seems it doesn't insert any new record in the master data, what could be the problem?
If you need more info ask me.
Thanks a lot.
Stefano

Hi Sadeesh,
i checked the master data table and it seems it has been updated, i check some order number with recordmode N added today in the dso and the entries were in the infoobject, though i don't know why in the request tab it shows 0 added records.
To be completely sure tomorrow i will check again the number of entries in the 'p' table of the infoobject.
Anyway this is the exact error message i get:
7 duplicate record found. 6478 recordings usedin table /BIC/XZDOCDSO
7 duplicate record found. 6478 recordings usedin table /BIC/PZDOCDSO
After that i run the change run for the IO and when i launch again tha data load it goes well.

BAPI/function module to create/update vendor master data

Hi
We are on ECC 50 and have a need to update vendor master data through a programatic interface ( non-dialog ) with ABAP. What is a good function module that can be used to create/update vendor master data - I looked at BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE and did not find any input interfaces that can be passed to this BAPI.
Previous experiences with the right BAPI for this purpose that can be shared is appreciated. <REMOVED BY MODERATOR>
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 26, 2008 5:58 PM

Hi Kiran,
If you want to load the vendor data into sap its better to go with LSMW batch input program.
object 0040
method 0001
program name RFBIKR00
Program type B
this would be a good choice. Recently i did the same.

Item descriptions update on Master Data

Hi there,
Item descriptions update on master data does not get read into existing sales orders and subsequently when delivery dockets and invoice are generated, they are all not updated. Could the SAP programmer analysts please fix this bug? thanks.
Similarly if item's GL account is set by item group and the item group is changed after an item is processed on sales order, the change in GL posting is not reflected when invoice is subsequently processed. Please also fix this bug, thanks.

Hi Amy,
for both issue nothing to do from SAP MDM side, You need to take help of SAP Technical Consultant(Programmer) which analyst the problem and fix it for e.g. SAP Notes updation for program or assign/change SAP standard program for message type etc.
Thanks,
Jignesh Patel

Sales order updation if master data is incomplition

is there any solution for sales order updation if master dat is incomolish.
Ex.we r created material master without account assingment group. while creating sales order it is showing in incomplition for gl a/c and we saved it. and we made POs on order.
now with out deleting POs i want clear the sale order
thanks
sreenivas

Hi,
You have two options
1) Goto Material master data maintain account assignment group.
2) create billing document for that sales order. In billing Item level, click on item details tab.
In accounting segment select material account assignment group and save it. System will create accounting document.
If you don't maintain any account assignment group in material master, system will give incomplete message in sales order, complete the G/L account. You don't want to maintain account assignment group in material master then choose table '2' in VKOA and maintain G/L accounts. so system will not give any incomplete messages at sales order level.

What exactly is Update method Master data attrib with a Time dependency ?

Hi Experts,
I have a Update rule in which i have an Update Method "Master Data Attrib of " with Time dependency
basically we are loading (update rule of )   0PAYROLL AREA ,
              at Master data attribute of we have 0EMPLOYEE
              at Time Dependency When reading Master Data END radio button is checked
              frm it is mention as 0CALDAY.
please explain what is function of 0calday here?
I understand that 0PAYROLL AREA is a attribute of 0Employee and since from R/3 we are getting only 0EMPLOYEE so we are filling it from 0employee but what is the significance of 0CALDAY here?
Regards,
RG

Hi RG,
It fills the valid value of 0PAYROLL for a particular 0EMPLOYEE in a particular time frame.
Elaboration.
Say Employee          Payroll                  Valid from          Valid to
        RG                    1000000                 01.01.2007        31.12.2007
        RG                    2000000                 01.01.2008        31.12.2008
        RG                    3000000                 01.01.2009        31.12.2009
The if your transaction data has RG employee in it with a transaction on 0CALDAY = 12.05.2007 then the valid payroll at that time would be 100000.
On Calday 05.05.2009 your payroll would be 300000.........
So for different days different payroll values would be valid.
You require calday to find out which payroll value is valid in the timeframe of a transaction.
In your update rule it is bringin the value of valid attribute value for the time of the transaction.
Hope it helps,

Sunmit.

How to regularly update the Master data/Text/ Hierarchy for BW DEV?- Urgent

Hi Experts,
Can anyone help me to understand how to update the Master data/Text/ Hierarchy regularly for BW DEV.
Since all the new query developments are taking place in DEV, users are not finding the latest Masterdata/ Texts /Hierarchy in the DEV system.
I have searched in SDN and got a document "HOW TO DOWNLOAD A HIERARCHY TO A FLAT FILE". However, is there any other way to upload the master data automatically on periodical basis.
Please help urgently.
Advance Thanks,
BW USA

If you want to extract master data from PRD in order to load in DEV, i suggest to do this (its a tricky thing):
For example, you want to download 0EMPLOYEE
1-In PRD, transaction RSD1
2-Enter 0EMPLOYEE
3-Copy the Master table for 0EMPLOYEE (/BI0/MEMPLOYEE)
4-transaction SE16
5-Enter the table name /BI0/MEMPLOYEE
6-in the selection screen, go to "Options" Menu and select "User parameters", and now select "Standard List SE16"
7-Execute
8-Now its show's up the 0employee data, go to "System" menu - List - Save - Local File
9-After you have the flat file, only rest create Infopackae in DEV Env. and load it from the flat file.
Asigns points if useful.

Popup screen it is updating the master data

hi all,
when I open sales order and open header information part or Partner tab and if I am double clicking on payer I get an popup screen in this I can see the address details but if I am changing the Name of payer in that popup screen it is updating the master data. I am not able to get how It is happening.
Is there any problem with the customer creation ? or is it an SAP bug .
Need you advice .

Hi mayank,
Option of changing the data in the customer details at the partnertab is a standard functionality.
But that will be limited to that particular document only.
It shouldn't impact the customer master. Kindly check again.

Update material master data BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA

Hi All,
I am using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA Fm to update the material master data .
I want to change material type vend (which already existed) to HIBE material type .
Even though Basic data view populated its not updating in Material master .
Which views do i need to populate to change material type one value to other value?

if you use FM - BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVE DATA ,you can not update material type , use bdc program to update material type ,
See the transaction : MMAM - No BAPI to update material type
you need to use BDC Program.
Reward Points if it is helpful
Thanks

Hey XK02 is for Vendor Master change.
Make sure if you write BDC check the flag No BatchInput in SHDB recording.
Or else Use the MASS transaction for doing so.
Since you want to change only one field data LSMW is also simple way to do it.
Hope this Helps,

Effect of 'No update' for master data texts

Hello all,
I am using flexible update - update rules - for master data text. I want to confirm effect of 'No update' in following scenario
In the fisrt set of update rules -from first source system -I have mapped both short text and long text
Key | short text| long text
......| overwrite| overwrite
K1 | some SHTX| some LGTX
In the second set of update rules, I have selected 'No update' for Long text
Key | short text | long text
......|overwrite| NO UPDATE
K1 | some SHTX |
My loading sequence is first source system followed by second source system
what should be my ultimate long text and why?
Many thanks in advance!
Regards
Sanjyot

Hi surekha,
your long text will not get changed.
Take the example you mentioned
Key | short text.....| long text
........| overwrite......| overwrite
K1 | some SHTX.. | some LGTX
In the second set of update rules, I have selected 'No update' for Long text
Key | short text... | long text
........|overwrite......| NO UPDATE
K1 | some SHTX. |
In the second set of update rules, you mentioned "No UPdate", So, when a record with the same key is found n Masterdata, it is not going to make any changes to the field Long text.
Where as short text will get overwritten.
Take some data for ex with the above mentioned type
data from source 1 : 2000 Maggi Noodles
data from source 2 : 2000 Feasters
when the data from first source system arrives, data will be 2000 maggi noodles
when the data from second source suystem arrives, as there exist this records with same key(2000), it checks for the other fiels
short text will be over written with the value in second system (according to rules its in overwrite mode)
Long text will not be updated as the rule says no update.
hope this helps,
Cheers,
Srinath.

Unable to update item master data after upgrade

Greetings,
I have just upgraded from 2005A SP01 PL22 to 8.81 PL05.
After the upgrade, I am unable to update any field in the item master data.
Error message:
In "Warehouses - Setup" window, on "Accounting" tab, choose sales-type revenue account , '_SYS00000001165' [Message 131-52]
I have checked all the warehouses accounting tab and all the revenue account is a sales type account. I have also checked the GL for _SYS00000001165 and it is a COGS GL. After I change its type to "Sales", I am able to update. This shouldn't be the case.
I have also tested creating and update new item master and I have no problem. However, I will have the same problem if i add a new item via duplicating from an old item.
Any advice?
Thank you.

Hi,
Can you also check whether the Item which you are trying to update has Manage G\L Account by as Item, Item group or Warehouse?
If you have checked for the Warehouses, check for the Item Group and at the G\L Determination > Inventory tab as well.
