  • DSO - What key fields and data fields in dso

    Hi experts,
    I need to create a dso in between the cube and 2 data sources(2lis_11_vaitm, 2lis_12_vcscl) to stage the data. My question is: what key fields and data fields to choose for the dso? is there a standard dso to copy? please explain in detail the model to set up, whether to connect both the ds's to dso and then to cube or one ds to dso and the other to the cube. more details will help.

    Check this for standard DSO:

  • Key fields and data fields in a DSO  ??

    i have a question regarding key fields and data fields in a Standard DSO...
    i am using 2 datasources to build a open sales report 2LIS_11_VASTH  and  2LIS_11_VASTI   i am pulling in data from these 2 data sources to a DSO and i am wondering what infoobjects should be in the key fields and data fields .....does this reflect back to table VBUK and VBUP tables and does the key field in the DSO have to be the key fields in VBUK and VBUP tables  ????  or what really should be included as key fields and data fields   ????  
    please help....

    If you look at the various SD tables, VBELN and POSNR are commonly used as the document number and document line item.
    For VBAP and VBUP, it's referring to the Sales Order Line Item with the columns VBELN and POSNR as the key for both tables. However, if you look at the LIPS table, which is the Delivery Line Item table, it too has VBELN and POSNR as the key. Likewise, the VTTP table, which is the Shipment Line Item table, also has VBELN and POSNR as the key.
    While using RSOSFIELDMAP as a map is a fairly good "rule of thumb", it still needs to be used with a level of skepticism.

  • Prerequsites for deciding Key fields and data fields

    Hi
    I would like to know the criteria to decide upon KEY fields and Data fields for an infoprovider.

    Hi,
    What is a Key field in a Database and How should I choose one?
    Keys are crucial to a table structure for many reasons, some of which are identified below:
    They ensure that each record in a table is precisely identified.
    They help establish and enforce various types of integrity.
    They serve to establish table relationships.
    Datafields may be Charecteristics and it may be keyfigures

  • Chart report Condition fields and Data fields

    Hi all,
    i have tried chart report by adding two condion fields and one data field, the report is more meaning full in this scenario. the first condition field is taken as x-axis, the 2nd condition fields is taken as legend.
    while adding more condition fields and data fields, i feel its not showing meaningfull data.
    can anyone explain how the condition fields and data fileds are manipulated by crystal report.
    i am using CR XI R2 Server.
    Thanks
    Padmanaban V

    i am using Crystal Report XI R2 RAS Embedded in my server.
    as we can add any number condition fields programatically using the method
    ConditionField.Add(FieldObj), i would like to know how these fields are manipulated internally by the RAS server.
    that means, what is the significance of condition fieldobject 1, condition fieldobject 2,condition fieldobject 3 etc...
    if i add more than two condition fields , RAS Chart Report always returns 0 as legend value for all legends.
    Thanks in advance

  • Identify key fields and data fields

    Hi
    i have datasource 0co_om_cca_9 .
    i want build 1 DSO, how can i identify what are key fields and data fields to build DSO based on that datasource.

    Hi sunnel,
    The DSO are like 2-D database tables.
    We use the technical keys here in counterpart to the business keys in Infocubes.
    The key fields are the one based on which the records are identified uniquely in the database table.
    And the data fields are the ones which are aggrgated or summarised or overwritten based on the value in key filed.
    For example:
    The ID no.s of the employees will be unique and it can be used as a key field.
    The feilds like the Salary taken by the employee every month :"SALARY"
    and the no. of leaves they taken: " NO. OF LEAVES" can be used as data fields.
    So that the salary or the leaves taken by a particular employee can be aggregated based on her/his ID no.
    The key fields in DSO doesnty mean Key figures.The key field means any unique key or a key based on which the records are sorted in the DSO
    And key figures are the data fields.Some of the Characteristics can also be data fields in DSO.
    Please give points if u r satisfied wit the information
    Also let me know if u hav any doubt and if any thing is wrong.

  • Defining Key -field and data fields

    Hi all
    i have to define Key-Fields and data-Fields for a DSO(say DSO3).
    DSO1 is a combination of DSO2 and DSO3..
    DSO1 and DSO2 are SAP defined DSOs.
    DSO3 is a User defined DSO.
    my assumption:
       DSO3 has 30 fields
       DSO2 has 16 fields.
       can i create the DSO3 with remaining 14 fields which is there in DSO1?
       or i have to create the DSO3 with 30 fields(all DSO1 fields).
    can any body explain....
    Thanks & Regards
    krishna

    The problem is not how many fields you create where, the issue is where is the data is going to come from.
    Since you data is going from DSO3 to DSO1and if the field is already getting populated in DSO1 from DSO2, then you don't have to worry about populating those fields again, unless and otherwise you want to overwrite them.
    Remember any fields exist in both DSO3 and DSO2 which overlapping will be overwritten by the latest update.
    Again, going back to your question, you should consider does your datasource has missing fields (14 of them).
    thanks.

  • EEWB : in CRM 4.0 adding  field with data element = table type

    Hi,
    Do you have experience in CRM4.0 to add a customer field with data element that is a table type ?

    Marie,
    I don't believe it is possible in CRM 4.0.  Another drawback of the EEWB is that you can't add currency or quantity fields using the EEWB tool.
    Good Luck,

  • Sharing a folder between LR and PS Elements

    Hi there-
    Im pretty new to LR, and have been experimenting moving photos back between LR and PS Elements 7. I cant seem though to find a way to get them to 'share' a single folder, rather it seems I need to have the same RAW file in 2 places.
    First I import my RAW files into LR, call it C:\Lightroom.
    I work on the pictures in LR, and while changes are made, there is no boxcar file added to c:\Lightroom. I have no idea how LR tracks or stores the changes.
    If I ask PSE 7 to import the files from c:\Lightroom, it will not recognize that any changes have been made, as there is no boxcar.
    If I ask LR to export the photos to c:\Lightroom, it refuses to overwrite the source file, and doesnt include the boxcar.
    I can ask LR to export to a different folder, call it c:\My Pictures. PSE7 can read those files with Boxcars fine. But any changes I make in PSE7 (for example I delete the file) will have no impact on LR, as those files are all in c:\Lightroom. And it does mean that each picture takes up twice as much space, one RAW file in c:\Lightroom and one in c:\My Pictures.
    Is there any way both programs can effectively use the saw RAW file in the same folder, with a minimum of hassle?

    That got me on the road, but now there seems to be another problem. In LR I now have a '?' in the upper right of the pciture which indicates 'sidecar file missing', and when I click on it its looking for the jpg, yet I dont think I ever created one, and I didnt see any in the folder before this.
    All I had done after toggling the XMP on is open up the pictures in Elements (where they opened up fine) and deleted one of them. Not sure why LR is on about a JPG.

  • What is the difference between olap and data warehouse..?

    Hi All,
    Is their any difference between olap and data warehouse..? Please let me know your knowledge about these. Thank you..
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Please mark it as complete, if you get the solution with this reply. TQ.

    A data warehouse is a database containing data that usually represents the business history of an organization. This historical data is used for analysis. Data in a data warehouse is organized to support analysis rather than to process real-time transactions
    as in online transaction processing systems (OLTP).
    OLAP technology enables data warehouses to be used effectively for online analysis, providing rapid responses to iterative complex analytical queries. OLAP's multidimensional data model and data aggregation techniques organize and summarize large amounts
    of data so it can be evaluated quickly using online analysis and graphical tools.

  • What is domain and dataelement.....diff b/w domain and data element

    dear all
    what is domain?
    what is data element?
    In one domain how many data elements are possible to used?
    with out data element how can u create a table? explain briefly.

    To clarify it little further the Data element and Domains are used in combination where similiar type of data fields are to be used with some more additional characteristics to each Data element.
    For example consider creating a table which contains Employee details. The Columns Name1 and Name2 are to be of type char and length 40. There are 2 ways to do this,
    1. You can assign the fields Name1 and Name2 directly to CHAR40(as the data element) in SE11. But this will make both the fields to have same characteristics with no difference among them.
    2. The other way is to assign the columns Name1 and Name2 to seperate Data elements say DE_NAME1 and DE_NAME2. This method has tha advantage of adding further charectristics and labels to the data element. Hence in this case you can add a label "Name1" for the data element DE_NAME1 and "Name2" for data element DE_NAME2. And both these data element will point to the same domain CHAR40, hence length and type is same.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Description of field from data element in table control

    hello people !!! I need help !!
    I’m using a table control in my module pool program. I create this table through wizard, taking the fields from an internal table. This internal table was defined like this:
    Table Control ; posting items
    DATA: t_postitems  TYPE stucture_fd OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
    Where  <b>stucture_fd</b> is strucuture with the fields.
    The problem that I have is that the titles of the fields does not take their description from the data element.
    How I create this table control from the internal table and that takes the description from the data element? It is very important this, because this development will be used in different languages.
    From already I am thanking for any answer.
    Thank so much.
    Best regards, Esther.

    Gracias, es mas facil para mi en espanol.
    tables: tab_prb.
    types: begin of <b>ti</b>.
               include structure <b>tab_prb</b>.
    types: end of <b>ti</b>.
    data: <b>ti_b</b>kpf type table of ti,
             <b>wa_bkpf</b> type ti.
    Explicacion:
    tab_prb, es una tabla transparent que contiene la estructura <b>struct_fd</b> que tiene los campos mas un flag para la seleccion de fila (flag).
    Defini esta tabla transparente, para que los campos tomen su decripcion desde los elementos de datos.
    Si creo el TB directo de la tabla tab_prb, no me permite seleccionar el campo flag como campo de seleccion, cuya funcion es marcar linea simple.
    Si yo hago la definicion anterior en mi programa, cuando creo el TB, va todo bien, hasta <b>ti_bkpf</b> que seria mi tabla interna, pero cuando me pide el work area, le ingreso <b>wa_bkpf</b> me indica que no esta definido en mi programa o ne es una estrucutura.
    Espero haber aclarado un poco mi respuesta.
    Muchas gracias !!!
