Procedure which I am following
Right Click on InfoObject (iademo) -> Select Create InfoObject Catalog -> In Edit InfoObject Catalog Dilogue box Iam giving InfoObjCat, Short Test and InfoObject Type as Char -> Click on Create ->
In Template area I am getting a msg Not Set (Select using Pushbuttons)
I don't understand wether my approach is wrong or is there any software problem.
Please help me out.
Thanks for your help in advance.

  • Creating InfoObjects using program and assignment under InfoObject Catalog

    Hi All,
    There is a FM BAPI_IOBJ_CREATE which can create an Infoobject but the problem is it is not having provisions to get assigned to a particular " Infoobject Catalog".
    Is there any other program or some way by which we can do it using the same FM.
    Thanks in advance

    To assign your Infoobject you must use a separate BAPI:
    BAPI_IOBC_CHANGE
    This function module changes an existing InfoObject catalog. Enter all the InfoObject catalog properties in the DETAILS parameter
    If the Catalog doesn't exist you have another BAPI:
    BAPI_IOBC_CREATE
    This function module creates a new InfoObject catalog. You have to give all the InfoObject catalog properties in the DETAILS parameter

  • Error installing Business Content: InfoObject Catalogs

    just new in this community and hope you can help with my encountered problem regarding Installation in BI content.
    I'm trying to activate:
    InfoObject Catalog (technical name) : 0CHANOTASSIGNED
    InfoObject Catalog(description)        : Unassigned characteristics
    upon installation here is the job log that i got:
    Message text | Message class | Message no. | Message type

    what seems to be the error here?
    thanks and regards,
    karl

    hi chintamanim,
    thanks for the response.
    i verified the objects included on the BI content objects window and noticed that the object 0CUST_CLASS_TEXT "active version" is not available and i tried finding 0CUST_CLASS_TEXT_BA and cannot find it.
    does this have an effect on the error i got from activating and receiving the error upon activation?
    The object R3TR ISTS 0CUST_CLASS_TEXT_BA does not exist
    I did follow a document for Building Block Configuration Guide:
    B03: General Settings for BI Integration
    and the step is included here:
    Activating Business Content: InfoObject Catalogs:
    1.     On the Data Warehousing Workbench: Business Content screen:
    a.     At the top of the right hand frame, choose Grouping and select In Data Flow Before.
    b.     At the top of the right hand frame, choose Collection mode and select collect automatically.
    c.     In the left hand frame, select Object Types.
    d.     In the middle frame, expand InfoObject Catalog and make a double-click on Select Objects.
    2.     In the Selection of Query Objects dialog box.
    a.     Select the following InfoObject catalog:
    0CHANOTASSIGNED
    b.     Choose Transfer Selections.
    c.     If a dialog box Remote Activation in the Source System <…> occurs, choose OK and log on to the source system on the following screen.
    d.     If a dialog box appears Exceeded runtime when collecting objects choose Continue.
    3.     At the top of the right frame, choose Install and select Install in Background.
    4.     In the Install Business Content in the Background dialog box choose Yes.
    5.     In the Information dialog box choose Continue.
    6.     Choose Exit.

  • Creating InfoObjects-Characteristics

    Hi,
    can anyone explain how to create infoobject characterstics??
    Regards,
    Vivek
    Edited by: Arun Varadarajan on Feb 11, 2009 2:43 PM

    Hi Vivek,
    In RSA1-> under Infoobjects -> under Infoarea (like Supply chain management), you can create your own Infoarea, under that two catalogs needs to be created one for charecteristics and another for Keyfigures.
    under Charectertics Infoobject catalogs -> right Create infoobject-> you can create -> new one with complete new properties or use template or refernce infoobjects.
    Characteristic infoobjects can be of typesm Char, Number, time and date.
    for more information look for SAP help.

  • Creating Infoobjects for the existing Infoprovider

    Hello,
          Can someone give me the steps to follow while creating infoobjects. Example - while working on a query realized that addition of 2 more infoobjects would make a lot of sense. So how do i go about creating infoobjects for the already existing infoprovider. I mean do i need to make the initial changes in the ODS or Infocube? Its just a doubt so please any amount of explanation would be of great help.
    Thank You,
    Anjali

    Hi Anjali,
    I agree with Sreenath.
    Few Suggestions:
    If these two fields are the part of Transaction Data then you need to add them in Transfer Structure and Infoprovider.
    If you want to use these objects as only Navigational Attributes then you need not add these fields to the Infoprovider, just make them as navigational attributes in the master data characteristics.
    Hope that helps.
    Regards

  • Create InfoObject KeyFigure of data type CUKY 5

    Hi,
    I have requirement where i need to create a custome infoobject keyfigure to map the source field which of type CUKY Length 5.
    can any please let me know how do i create a Infoobject keyfigure whose type is CUKY and length 5.
    regards,
    Prem

    Hi,
    CUKY - is the reference field of any Keyfigure infoobject.
    You just create a unit Keyfigure as a reference unit under unassigned unit infoobject catalog.
    Then use this unit characteristic as reference to a KF.

  • How to create a Catalog (Product/Service) & TAX issues

    SRM Guru's
    Product Ver: SRM 5.0 : ECC 6.0  ( No CCM or Service Master )
    TAX S/w: Vertex ( O )
    As of now:    We are planning to implement a vanilla SRM-ECC (in ext. classic). We are into Indirect procurement w/limit orders.
    Catalog:
    I want to create a Catalog ( UNSPSC or 1 level company catalog),
           1. Can this be created in ECC  (with out Products ) and replicated to SRM (EBP)
           2. How to go about creating it ?
           3. Can it be done with out CCM, if so how
           4. How to replicate it ? ( no CCM or middleware )
           5. Can i create it in EBP ? if so, plse say how..
    TAX:
    Vertex mentioned that, Tax codes will be mapped to services, in our case, since we don’t have Services except a free form text describing what service is provided ( eg: "Payroll Service" ), what can be done ?
    In a normal scenario, i can imagine having Service Master with all "Services", but in our situation, how can we use catalog to map to TAX codes. ?
    PS: If you could, please describe/break down the relationship between

    Try Holding down the shift key while to start the organizer - that should bring up the Catalog Manager.
