Query on a virtual provider (nearlined) locks indexing
Hi,
We have a few queries that are on the virtual providers. These are nearlined (SAND) data. When a user execute this query, a lock is established in SM12 on the RSDDTREXDIRTABL table with the virtual provider name as the argument. Due to this lock, any SIDs that are part of the virtual provider are not able to index in BWA. Since the queries on the virtual providers are usually long running ones, the indexing waits and finally fails. We plan to increase the wait time settings in the RSDDTREXADMIN table.
Why does a virtual provider query locks the SID? Is it because, the queries simulate a realtime data load from the nearline storage and in the process simulate SID generation (eventhough these SIDs are existing in BW and not yet archived).
Anyone dealt with a similar issue? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Murali
Hello Murali,
I don't think this scenario has been tested much. Please open a customer message so SAP support can analyze the issue.

Virtual provider with services
Hi experts,
we have the same query on virtual cube(with services) and BW loacal cube.Both local cube and virtual cube contains the same data. But both are showing different query results.
that is virtual provider query is not displaying all the values in master data table.
for example we have 10 brands under one company code, the virtual cube query is only showing 5 among them. I would like to see all the values without any restrictions, so can you please guide me.
when i checked from tcode /listcube it is displaying all the values without any restriction.
Thanks for your time.Hi Anupama,
My question is if u have same data in the both cubes ( virtal&Basic) u can create querry on u r basic cube only. But this not answer.
R u using same conditions on both cubes. Means In querry designer.
When u r using the virtual cube(with services) it is generally create on function module, this module properly maintainning the complete master data or not? Check it.
Hope this will help

Issue with Query on a virtual infoprovider
Hello,
I am getting the following error message while executing a query on a virtual infoprovider. We have recently gone through upgrade from BI 3.5 to BI 7.0 EHP1 (SP5) and from SEM BCS 4.0 to BCS 6.0.
EVersion not specified or not unique UCR0 006
EError reading the data of InfoProvider ZBCS_CV11 DBMAN 305ZBCS_CV11
EError while reading data; navigation is possible BRAIN 289
I>> Row: 11 Inc: RAISE_READ_ERROR Prog: CL_RSDRV_VPROV_BASE RS_EXCEPTION 301CL_RSDRV_VPROV_BASE
this query has been running fine before the upgrade. In the selection screen there are two fields - version1 and version2, if I am specifying same value in both the fields then the query runs fine and if I am providing different values then the above stated error message appears.
I have tried different settings with properties - Read mode: H,A,X and also different combination from the properties of the virtual infoprovider - with and w/o hierarchies; with and w/o navigation attributes but it did not workout.
the only thing which has changed on this virtual provider is that I had enabled delta caching as this was supposed to be used in a multiprovider.
Has anyone experienced similar issue or have an idea as to what is going wrong here. Please advice.
Regards,
ManishHi Manish,
I have exactly the same issue with a query on a virtual infoprovider after upgrading from BI 3.5 to BI 7.0 EHP1 (SP5) and from SEM BCS 4.0 to BCS 6.0.
Would you be so kind to tell me how you fixed this. (other queries seem to be working)
Kind regards,

BI: Virtual Provider for ECC Report with same selection parameters
Dear all,
I have attached screen shot of ECC report selection screen with contain Material, Plant and Dates. As report is bit complex and I need to use just ITAB (internal table) of it for further use in BEx Query and for Dashboard purposes.
Problem: I need to call this report by creating Virtual Provider in BI so that I get data from ECC at runtime as it is shares report so I can't able to save any data in transparent table as report calculated opening balances at runtime.
It is possible for me by using function module i can get itab by submit return and then create Data Source for it ?
As i make copy of FM ZZRSAX_BIW_GET_SIMPLE i cannot use submit there due to OPEN CURSOR mechanism there.
Kindly anyone suggest how it is possible to call report with same selection parameters for creation of virtual provider.
Please mention if i miss any point in explaining problem.
Feel free to ask for any query.
Many thanks.
Hoping for positive and quick responses.please create 2 reports as given below.-
REPORT ZSZP_00007.
parameters a(5) .
parameters b(5) .
parameters c(5) .
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
LOOP AT SCREEN.
IF screen-name = 'A' or screen-name = 'B' .
get parameter id 'aaaaaaaaaaa' field a.
get parameter id 'bbbbbbbbbbb' field B.
screen-input = 0.
MODIFY SCREEN.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
start-of-selection.
your logic
REPORT zszp_00005.
PARAMETERS a(5).
PARAMETERS b(5).
START-OF-SELECTION.
SET PARAMETER ID 'aaaaaaaaaaa' FIELD a.
SET PARAMETER ID 'bbbbbbbbbbb' FIELD b.
your logic
SUBMIT zszp_00007 VIA SELECTION-SCREEN.
i hope this approach will solve your problem.
thanks

Virtual Provider not getting executed in LISTCUBE
Hi,
Initially, my virtual provider was not transported successfully, but now it is transported after I transported by unlocking my objects in QA system.
But when I execute the Virtual provider in listcube, I am getting the following errors:
Error reading the data of InfoProvider ZIP_RC_01
System error: Syntax error in program SAPLZBW_IP
Error in substep
How to go about solving these issues.
Thanks & Regards.Hi,
I have just tried to transport the following:
InfoCube
Data Transfer Process: Active Version
DataSource in BW
Communication Structure for Transformation
Transformation
And no program was included in the transport request.
Note: I am trying to execute a Virtual Provider in LISTCUBE T.Code and I am getting this error when I do it.
And I tried to transport with the following options:
The object was locked in a request in BW Qual system and hence we were getting an error when re-transporting. So, we have released the same in BW QUAL and then transported with the options 'Overwrite Objects in Unconfirmed Repairs', 'Import Transport Request Again' and 'Overwrite Originals' when importing the request.
Please advise. -
Virtual provider 0TCT_VC01 - ST03N Gives Dump
Hi,
Have installed BI7.0 Technical contents and have loaded query statistics data using process chain. Everything is working fine except for one scenario.
In one of SAP docs its specified that 0TCT_VC01 is used to take delta statistic records from database view RSDDSTAT_OLAP. When there are no new delta statistics available in this view (i.e, once all data are loaded into basic cube), a dump is seen in ST03N transaction when BI workload for the current day is selected. Dump says "SAPSQL_SQLS_INVALID_CURSOR"
Has anyone faced this issue?
Regards,
Vidhya.AHi Chetan,
Thanks for the reply!
Have already done all the steps specified like "activating the direct access". I am able to see the correct values in ST03.
The only problem happens in one scenario where,
Scenarion1 : Load the process chain TCT* to get all report statistics - this gets all delta records from database view and hence no delta record is available for the virtual cube to read and hence we get a dump in st03n transaction.
If a execute a report then new statistics data would be available in Database view and virtual provider can read those. In this case there wouldn't be any dump. My issue is with the first scenario only.
Hope the issue is clear.

Virtual provider cube ABAP Code to read the Characteristics
Hello Friends. We have a virtual provider cube that is connected to the basic real cube for the GL. We want to populate three Characteristics in the virtual provider which are Material Codes, Code1 Code2 Code3 which change very frequently, every alternate day in ECC.
I want to write the Code in Func Module of Virtual Prov Infocube
that read the Mapping DSO for the Values of Material Codes, Code1 Code2 Code3 and Populate it in the Virtual Cube at RUNTIME of the execution of the Query built on the virtual provider.
If you have implemented this functionality can you pls. provide the step by step details.
Thanks
SoniyaHi,
I have used ABAP for hierarchy but it is in BPS. I have used some of the CLASS given by SAP.
For your requirement, you can use the CLASS CL_RSR_HIERARCHY

Error in virtual provider?( is it possible from flat file)
hi friends,
this step i am using my flat file extraction.
i created DS and under extraction tab i gave direct access allowed, i didnt create infopackage.
i created virtual provider and applied transformations , i created DTP and activate it.
but i didnt execute it . right click my virtual provider activate direct access. now i am tryning to see data in virtual provider, i am getting this error.
please let me know what i done is correct or not, if correct how can i solve this problem

Virtual Provider with function Module
Hi,
I have one Querry which is built on Virtual Provider.But due to huge amount of data , it goes to dump.The Query fetches only one single record , summation of all the key figures.
Currently Virtual Provider is built on DTP Based on DTP/3.x InfoSource.
If i create Virtual Provider on Function Module,which will calculate the sum of key figures , will it solve my problem.Or is there any other option.
I dont wnat to do any analysis on it , just for Reconcilation purpose
Regards,
AnitaThe query execution will be fast if your code to get the data is tight and the SQl is tuned - same as anythign else really
Step by step -
create a generic datasource on BW using FM
code the FM to get data from the cubes/ODS objects
replicate the datasoruce on the BW box on itself
create a virtual provider that uses the datasource
create a transformation between the datasource and the virtual cube
create a direct access DTP between the virtual cube and datasource
create a query
however - you may still have response time problems using the virtual cube
Can you use aggregates to get the response time down without using a virtual cube?
When you analyse the SQL and check the query execution path in RSRT - are the stats up to date?
If you could SQL against the tables better than the OLAP processor does - then you use a virtual cube
This should be a last resort - you ned to go through all the normal options first -
Error when using RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ in Virtual Provider
Hello,
I Have a Virtual Provider built using a function Module. In that function module i am reading data from an infocube using RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ.
When i execute a query built on the virtual provider, i have an error telling me a nested query is not allowed.
I am trying this on BI3.5. I have this working on BI7.0.
Is this not possible in BI3.5? Is there a workaround or a Sapnote?
ThanxTake a look at OSS Notes 832019 & 918131.

Virtual provider and Inverse routine
Hi guys,
I have a strange problem.
I've implemented a virtual provider over data source in ECC
and it works fine when I filter the query.
I get the filters in my inverse routine.
But when I try to restrict the data via restricted key figure,
I cannot get the restriction in my Inverse routine.
Any ideas?
Regards
ShlomiHi,
You create inversion routines for virtual provider in order to pass query selection criteria to the source system. This helps to improve your performance.
In case of restricted Key figures the restrictions will not be passed to the source system, but will be applied to the dataset fetched from the source system for selections given in query selection criteria. Hence you will not see the restrictions in transformations.
Note:
Inversion routines are used to pass only the selections provided in query.

Creating OHD for Virtual Provider
Hi,
I want to read data from SAP BW using OHD and Third party tool.
I am using SAP BW 7.4
My question is can we create OHD for Virtual Provider in BW 7.4
Thanks in advance
PoornimaHi,
thanks for the guidance.
Yes, I tried to implement exactly as in the article.
Yes, I defined the filter for the Infoprovider, as ZV*
Are you suggesting that at this point, if in the method if_ex_rsr_olap_badi~define, I change the value of
"ZV_ZIPER" to my DSO or Cube, I should now see the virtual key figure in my query?
Based on this understanding, I modified the method as follows, (my cube name is 2LIS_11_VASCL):
method IF_EX_RSR_OLAP_BADI~DEFINE.
DATA: l_s_chanm TYPE rrke_s_chanm,
l_kyfnm TYPE rsd_kyfnm.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
<l_s_chanm> TYPE rrke_s_chanm.
Insert Code
CASE i_s_rkb1d-infocube.
CASE i_s_rkb1d-2LIS_11_VASCL.
WHEN '2LIS_11_VASCL'.
l_s_chanm-chanm = 'ZVAR_SHPR'.
l_s_chanm-mode = rrke_c_mode-read.
APPEND l_s_chanm TO c_t_chanm.
l_s_chanm-chanm = 'ZVARDT'.
l_s_chanm-mode = rrke_c_mode-read.
APPEND l_s_chanm TO c_t_chanm.
APPEND 'ZV_20DV' TO c_t_kyfnm.
ENDCASE.
endmethod. "if_ex_rsr_olap_badi~define
After activation, I checked the query and still I am not seeing the virtual key figure in the query for selection.
Any more ideas?
Thanks

Hi friends,
what is virtual provider? when we use this ? please tell me any instance where we use virtual provider in realtime scenario?.
regards
MiluHi Milu,
A Virtual provider is a logical definition of an object which does'nt exist at the data base level.
Virtual provider does'nt have a physical data base table they extract the data innstantly from the source at the query execution time.
A Virtual provider is mostly used when there is little amount of data to extract and this is mainly operational data i.e showcasing real time data very frequently can be made possible with virtual providers.
For ex : You can have a virtual provider to depict the daily sales orders on a hourly basis.
