Reconciliation and data verification approaches for data in sap r/3 and bw

Hi
Cam anybody suggest what are the different reconciliation and data verification approaches to assure that BW and R/3 source data are in sync.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Nisha.

Hi
What you can do is, go to R/3 transaction RSA3 and run the extractor, it gives you the number of records extracted and then go to BW Monitor to check the number of records in the PSA.
if it's the same, there you go.
there is an HOW-TO Document on service market place "Reconcile Data Between SAP Source Systems and SAP BW".
Check this document as well which is very helpful.
There is another HOW-TO document "Validate infocube data by comparing it with PSA Data". this is also a good document.
Hope it helps.

Data migration approach for Scheduling Agreements

Gurus,
Can anyone provide guidance on the data migration approach for Scheduling Agreements? How can we migrate the open delivery schedules and the respective cumulative quantities? The document type being used is "LZ".
Can correction deliveries (Doc type - LFKO) be used update the initial cumulative quantities?
Any help in this regard is higly appreciated.
Regards,
Gajendra

Hi Zenith
You might find useful information here: IS-U data export (extraction) for EMIGALL.
I've done numerous IS-U migrations in the last 10+ years, but never one from IS-U to IS-U.
One main questions to start with: Are the two systems on the same release level?
If they are not and it would be too much effort to get them onto the same release level I would think creating your own extract programs and using the Migration workbench (EMIGALL) is the way to go.
If they are on the same level, there might possible other ways to do it, dependent on the differences between the two systems (mainly around customising). Assuming there are significant differences - otherwise why would you bother migrating? - there's the high probability that using EMIGALL is the way to go as well.

Connection verification failed for data source using mySQL

Hi,
I having problem with mySQL datasource and getting the above error. This is only happening in our staging server. We are using ColdFusion 8 running JRUN4 and trying to connect to mySQL v 5.1.41. I tried adding DSN from my localhost using ColdFusion 9 developer edition and I am able to connect without error.I know that mysql server, username & password is valid. I can access the mysql also using mySQL gui tool from different pc and it works fine. I'm believe that this has something to do with mySQL driver? Can somebody shed some light on how can I fix my DSN connection problem? Thank you.
here's the error:

Also make sure your firewall has the required port open (1433
default) and if you are running 2003 on the SQL box, especially if
you ran the security Wizard, make sure the IPSec is allowing the CF
box to communicate with it, and vise verse.

I cannot find anything online on how to fix this! HELP!!!

Hi,
Is that SQL Express edition? If so perhaps TCP protocol is not enabled. Is Windows firewall turned on? Check port 1433 is open.
Normally you would not create a datasource to apache port 8500, that is a web server not database server port.

HT201250 Can I partition my external hard drive and use one partion for time machine and the other one for data that i may want to use in different computers?

I have this doubt. I've just bought an external drive, especifically a Seagate GoFlex Desk 3 tb.
I want to know if it is recomendable to make a partion exclusively for time machine and let another one so I can put there music, photos, videos, etc that I should need to use or copy to another computer.
May half and half, 1.5 tb for time machine and 1.5 tb for data.
I have an internal hard drive of 500 GB (499.25 GB) in my macbook pro.
Any recommendation?

As I said, yes. Be sure your Time Machine partition has at least 1 TB for backups.
1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to two (2). Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.

Each time technical people and top managers promised that this issue will be resolve tomorrow and they will cal me. Nothing happend!! I can not even cancel my service not just to upgrade it. Completely locked.
Any advice?
Thanks.
Alex.

Cannot figure out what your talking about since it makes no sense.
If you are the account owner you can go to the My Verizon web portal http://www.verizonwireless.com
You must log in with your cell number and your my Verizon portal password. Not the account pin.
Once there you can change your plan and services. However repeated incorrect login attempts will lock you out of the site. It a fraud prevention measure.
1-800-922-0204 call support with your cell number and or account number and account pin and they can assist you.
If you don't have the information then there is nothing they can do.
If you can verify who you are they may be able to reset your account access. But only if you are the account owner.
Good Luck

Can we assign 2 IPs for a SCCM 2012 primary site server and use 1 IP for communicating with its 2 DPs and 2nd one for communicating with its upper hierarchy CAS which is in a different .Domain

Hi,
Can we assign 2 IPs for a SCCM 2012 primary site server and use 1 Ip for communicating with its 2 DPs and 2nd one for communicating with its upper hierarchy CAS . ?
Scenario: We are building 1 SCCM 2012 primary site and 2 DPs in one domain . In future this will attach to a CAS server which is in different domain. Can we assign 2 IPs in Primary site server , one IP will use to communicate with its 2 DPs and second
IP for communicating with the CAS server which is in a different domain.?
Details:
1)Server : Windows 2012 R2 Std , VM environment .2) SCCM : SCCM 2012 R2 .3)SQL: SQL 2012 Std
Thanks
Rajesh Vasudevan

First, it's not possible. You cannot attach a primary site to an existing CAS.
Primary sites in 2012 are *not* the same as primary sites in 2007 and a CAS is 2012 is completely different from a central primary site in 2007.
CASes cannot manage clients. Also, primary sites are *not* used for delegation in 2012. As Torsten points out, multiple primary sites are used for scale-out (in terms of client count) only. Placing primary sites for different organizational units provides
no functional differences but does add complexity, latency, and additional failure points.
Thus, as the others have pointed out, your premise for doing this is completely incorrect. What are your actual business goals?
As for the IP Addressing, that depends upon your networking infrastructure. There is no way to configure ConfigMgr to use different interfaces for different types of traffic. You could potentially manipulate the routing tables in Windows but that's asking
for trouble IMO.

Table Onwers and Users Best Practice for Data Marts

2 Questions:
(1)We are developing multiple data marts that share the same Instance. We want to deny access to the users when tables are being updated. We have one generic user (BI_USER) with read access through one of the popular BI Tools. The current (first) data mart we denied access by revoking the privilege to the BI_USER, however going forward with other data marts the tables will get updated on a different schedule and we do not want to deny access to all the data marts. What is the best approach?
(2) What is the best Methodology for table ownership of tables in different data marts that share tables across marts? Can we create one generic ETL_USER to update tables with different owners?
Thanx,
Jim Masterson

If you have to go with generic logins, I would at least have separate generic logins for each data mart.
Ideally, data loads should be transactional (or nearly transactional), so you don't have to revoke access ever. One of the easier tricks to accomplish this is to load data into a shadow table and then rename the existing table and the shadow table. If you can move the data from the shadow table to the real table in a single transaction, though, that's even better from an availability standpoint.
If you do have to revoke table access, you would generally want to revoke SELECT access to the particular object from a role while the object is being modified. If this role is then assigned to all the Oracle user accounts, everyone will be prevented from viewing the table. Of course, in this scenario, you would have to teach your users that "table not found" means that the table is being refreshed, which is why the zero downtime approach makes sense.
You can have generic users that have UPDATE access on a large variety of tables. I would suggest, though, that you have individual user logins to the database and use roles to grant whatever ad-hoc privileges users need. I would then create one account per data mart, with perhaps one additional account for the truely generic tables, that own each data mart's objects. Those users would then grant different roles different database privileges, and you would then grant those different roles to different users. That way, Sue in accounting can have SELECT access to portions of one data mart and UPDATE access to another data mart without granting her every privilege under the sun. My hunch is that most users should not be logging in to, let alone modifying, all the data marts, so their privileges should reflect that.

Date difference issue for Purchase order in R/3 and APO

Hi,
I am sending the purchase order from APO to R/3. When I transfer the data through CIF and see the curresponding entries in stock requirement list in R/3, purchase order is 1 day earlier than in SCM.
However, when this purchase order is CIFed back to SCM, date appears correct in SCM ( as what it was before). Is this something because of timezone that difference in date appears in SCM and R/3.
Can someone who came across date issues for transaction data transfer between SCM and R/3 elaborate in more detail please.
Thanks,
Sanjay

Hello Somnath ,
I am also facing the same issue which sanju was facing earlier in PRs .
In APO I am not able to understand how system calculates the opening , start and end date .In my case the transportation time is 48 hrs , planned delivery time is 1 day and all calenders are 5*24 , GR proceeeing time .01 day . When I am creating PR at destination location on 06/06/2008 , 24:00:00 Hrs . System calculates the dates as follows :-
Start date -06/05/2008 , 00:45:00 , end date -06/06/2008, 24:00:00 , opening date -05/20/2008 ,23:25:00 Hrs . I tried to understand the formula given by you in your reply as Opening Date = Requirement Due Date - GR Time - Planned Delivery Time
Start Date = Requirement Due Date - GR time - Transportation Duration
End date = Requirement Date.
But I am not getting the desired results.
Could you let me know why the system is behaving in such way.I also want to know does system can create orders in such a way the opening date lies in past. If yes then can we restrict that ?
Regards ,
Mukesh

Missing "Add Records" and "Refresh Records" options for data sets post domain re-import

We recently had to re-install the Endeca server and as part of which had to export and re-import the data domains. Everything went fine except for the fact that newly re-imported data sets showcase just the "Manage Attributes" and the "Delete Data Set" options for an administrator login in. The previously available options to "Add Records" and "Refresh Records" beyond manage attributes/Delete Data Set are missing.
Thoughts? Is there a security setting to enable these?

So are you talking about the Add Records and Reload Records options for a data set in Studio?
There are no separate security settings for these options. If a user is an application administrator (is able to edit the application), then they should have access to these options.
The options are only available for data domains created using the Provisioning Service (created by uploading a file or from the JDBC or BI Server data source from the Data Source Library).
I don't know if the process of exporting and re-importing the data domains (not sure how you did that) could somehow cause the data sets to no longer know that they were created by the Provisioning Service, in which case those options would not be enabled.

Best approach for Data Modelling.

Hello Experts
I am building a Customer Scorecard involving SD and Marketing in BI 7.0.
There are a couple of existing DSOs, some pushing the data into InfoCubes and some don't. All the reporting is happening from MultiProvider sitting on top of these Data Targets.
The team has a primitive design which says that I additional DSOs be created to extract data from the above mentioned couple of DSOs based on only the Objects that are needed for Customer Scorecard reporting.
This means, I am creating a couple of DSOs as per the current design which is in place.
Upon suggesting to only create a Customer Scorecard MultiProvider on top of the already existing couple of Data Targets (avoiding to recreate addtional DSOs and the hassles of loading and activating them and then loading the data into InfoCubes) and then create the BEx Queries on top of them, the Lead expressed his concerns about the impacts it could have on the existing Data Model and subsequent transports once the Model is complete..!
What is the best practice to handle a situation like this? I see there are 3 ways to go ahead with this:
1. Do as the Lead said, which means creating additional DSOs (extracting data from a couple of required existing DSOs, push this data into 1 InfoCube and then create a MultiProvider on top of this (be aware that there is another similar data model that I need to create which will also be embedded into this MultiProvider) and create BEx Reports from there.
2. Create only the InfoCubes which will extract data from the already existing DSOs (avoid creation of additional DSOs) and then create a MP from where BEx Reports are created.
3. Only create a MultiProvider on all the required and already existing DSOs and InfoCubes, making sure if reporting needs aggregated data for reporting or not and then create BEx Reports from there (avoid creation of additional DSOs, & ICs).
Note: We use Rev-Track to do the Transports.
Which one do you think would be the best way to go and what could be the implications? Eventually, the reporting is done in WAD.
Thanks for your time in advance.
Cheers,
Chandu

Hi,
Case 1 and 2 have similarities. But its purely depend user needs.
I think you may be know the difference between dso and cube.
DSO - holds detailed level data
Cube - holds aggregated data.
As per you needs use any one target only, no need to use DSO---> cube flow for existing flows.
you can decide which you want use DSO or Cube only.
Case 3. if your requirement will suffice with existing dso and at reporting level if you can manage to get the required out put then you can with it. But as my guess with existing target your requirement may won't suffice your needs.
About transports:
You can create one Rev track and assign multiple transports to it.
you can add and release transport one by one rather than all at a time.
if you release all at a time you may get some inconsistency issue and TR won't be released.
Thanks

Is it a good idea to install an SSD as the main drive and a regular HD for data?

Please help me make the best decision on making my machine faster without having to purchase a new one!

Nothing is going to make that system any faster. The Speed of any system it determined by the speed of the CPU, RAM and Graphic processor. The speed of the hard drive or SSD has little to do with the overall speed of the system.
Yes with a faster hard drive and certainly with a SSD the system will boot faster and load programs faster, and with some programs that use the storage media (HDD or SSD) to store files while running, which will SEEM to make the whole system faster, but in reality it is not. The CPU and memory can only do so much in any given time period. With newer systems that speed is faster then with older system and there is nothing you can do to make an older system as fast as a newer system with a more modern, faster, CPU and faster RAM.
