Removing the compounding info objects

Hi Experts,
I am having  a problem with large master data tables in the production system. There are 2 custom info objects ZPCA_Doc and ZPCA_item for PCA document number & item number. ZPCA_DOC is compounded with doc_typ and ZPCA_Item is compounded with ZPCA_DOC info obejcts. The number of entries in the two info objects ZPCA_DOC and ZPCA_Item is growing everyday. The number of entries in the ZPCA_Item is nearing 20 million records. I think this is due to the compounding of the info objects. As this was developed few years back I am not sure why the compounding was done.
I need advice on:
Is it a good practice to compound the document number & document item info Objects?
Is it possible to remove the compounded info object on these info objects without deleting the infocube data?
Is there any other way to control the number of entries in these info objects?
Thanks in advance,
Shilpa

Hi,
It depends on requirements of queries. But, without compounding, if you have doc no and item no seperately in transactional data, then you will be able to report data as you wish.
My opinion is, if you have both of them in the infocube, then you can remove compounding. However, removing compounding object will require deletion of master data. you have to be careful

  • Ask fo support Authorization Compounding Info Object BW 3.5

    Hi to everyone, I hope somebody can support me >;-)
    I got a question concerning an authorization on a compounding Info Object within BW 3.5
    I would like to give authorization on the compounding Info Object 0COSTCENTER. The Info Object 0COSTCENTER is compounded, as usual, to Info Objekt 0CO_AREA.
    I already created the necessary authorization objects for 0COSTCENTER and for 0CO_AREA I even tried to create an authorization object which contains both info objects for testing and tried every possible combination.
    In RSA1 both Info Objects are marked as authorization relevant and within the RSSM both authorization objects are marked relevant for the particualr Info Provider. In the pfcg I restrict corresponding role to particular Cost Center and generate the profile.
    But executing the query I always got the authorization problem that the query do not have the authorization to read the authorization object for 0COSTCENTER.
    Please be aware of the fact that the problem is within BW 3.5 
    Thank you very much for your support in advance
    Best regards

  • I got a new iphone 5c for Xmas and my laptop is registered with my iphone 4, which I no longer use or have hence the new phone lol. How do I remove the old info and register my new phone? Will it let me?

    I got a new iphone 5c for Xmas and my laptop is registered with my iphone 4, which I no longer use or have hence the new phone lol. How do I remove the old info and register my new phone? Will it let me?

    You do not register the phone with the laptop. If you are using the same Apple ID on the new phone as the old, you will have no trouble. Connect the phone and you can restore from a backup of the old phone, or just sync your new phone if it is already set up, with the laptop, managing your content in iTunes.

  • Copying queries between multicubes without having the same info objects

    Hello all,
    I have heard that it should be possible to use the debugger in order to copy a report between two multiproviders without having the exact same info objects in both multiproviders. All the info objects in the report are off course available in both multiproviders.
    Could anyone explain to me how this should be done?

  • Spry image slideshow - where can i remove the title info from the code?

    I don't need the title info shown ever - where can I remove it so that I don't have to delete it every time I use the widget. It works great by the way!
    I looked through all the JS scripts and couldn't find it.
    Thanks!
    Janet

    You can modify the widget within the widget browser and save it as a pre-set.
    To disable the sliding titles
    To remove the main title
    Then, whenever you want to add the widget, just use the pre-set that you have created

  • Hi, dears i have a problem in itunes is not opening while i am trying to open it nothing happens i also tried to remove the sc info file but still i have the same problem

    hi dera i have a problem whit itunes is not opening.
    whil i am trying to open it nothing happens.
    i also removed sc info files still i have the same problem
    i any one know to how plz..........

    You can try mp3val, that might fix them up.
    Alternatively, if the files are in a standard <Artist>\<Album>\## <Name> layout then turn off Copy to iTunes Media folder when adding to library and use my script TagFromFilename to fill in the missing information.
    iTunes often has an issue handling files with multiple tags. These may be introduced by other software such as Windows Media Player, Winamp, or MediaMonkey. Files may have both ID3v1 and ID3v2.x tags, and if I read the ID3 specification correctly, there is also support for multiple ID3v2.x tags each coded for a different language. When there are multiple tags iTunes behaviour can sometimes be unpredictable. In some cases edits to the metadata can be written to one tag, and visible in Windows Explorer, but iTunes insists on reading back unchanged values from the other. In such cases you can use Convert ID3 Tag > None several times followed by Convert ID3 Tag > v2.3 and whatever iTunes knows about the file will be written back to a clean tag. Embedded artwork is erased so needs to be reattached. Using my script CreateFolderArt before and then after the tag conversions is one way to workaround that part of the problem.
    Also of note is that certain pre-defined genres are represented by a code number rather than text so that they can be presented in the local system language. There is always a possibility that Windows and iTunes have slightly different values in the look-up tables for some of these.

  • Know the created info objects which are used in which info providers.

    Hi Experts,
    How can we know the zinfo objects which are used in which info providers.

    Hi,
    Either you can check the where used list of Infoobject as suggested by Gaurav, or you can goto transaction SE16 and put the table name as RSDCUBEIOBJ and put the Infoobject name.
    You will get the list of all Infoproviders in which the infoobject is used.

  • How can i remove the measurement info bubble from displaying while using patch tool?

    When removing unwanted parts of an image or repairing older images, the tool most used by me is the patch tool. When I select a patch and move a bubble with measurements of how far I've moved this patch pops up and ALWAYS seems to be in the way. Some areas to repair are extremely magified and can make or break an image looking natural or not. The darn measurement bubble seems to place itself in the worst possible location for exact placement of small elements. How can I turn this info bubble from popping up as I'm not why it's even there?

    You can turn it off under Photoshop (Edit)>Preferences>Interface by setting Show Transformation Values to Never

  • Selection varuable on Compounded Info Object in Query Designer

    Hi,
       To identify  the inconsistencies inconsistencies in the source system abt the description
    I am Text Description of Application Status Source System dependent
    Application Status is compounded on Source System....
    There will be 3 values for Application Status
    N - New
    R - Renewal in Progress
    C - Complete
    And i had 12 Different source Systems
    As per my requirment i made selection variable on Application Status in the Query..So if the user want to see all ther complete application he has to select 12 different values (App Status is compounded on Source System)
    Is there any way that i can fix this in query designer so that user will have a option to select either of 3 Values (N,R,C)
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Yes, it is simple.You have to create a variable on "source system" too and put it on the selection screen. Make it mandatory and put it above the variable for application status on the selection screen. So after the user selects the system from which he wants the data, he will see only three options in the F4 help of the "application status".

  • How to remove constant asignemnt from 0FUNCT_LOC info object

    Hi,
    I am trying to remove constant assignment for the 0FUNCT_LOC info object but that option is greyd out. Could you please advise me how i can take out the assignment. It's in development.
    Thanks,
    Naveen

    how come that you have a hierarchy created on this IObj having a constant ?!?
    did you really empty its master data? and SID table? check in the tables if this is really the case.
    If you still have a hierachy (not empty), most likely you still have at least one entry in the SID table (/BI0/SFUNCT_LOC)
    try deleting the hierarchy and ensure the /BI0/P and /BI0/S table are really empty.
    then try to apply your change in RSD1.
    If this still doesn't work please revert but I am still believing that you'll need to empty the datatargets as well; to answer your question: datatargets like cubes/ods won't have their data deleted...
    hope this helps...

  • How to know the R/3 table field mapped to BW info object!

    Hi,
    I have an extractor which is extracting the data from R/3 using View in generic data source.
    Now i am making a documentaion of each infoobject involved in the extraction of how exactly it is mapped and how is it getting filled.
    In transfer rules i could find the R/3 find easily but i want a table as well as i need to make a screen shots as well for the documentaion.
    Example, the field AUFNR which is order number is existing in three tables namely AFRU,AUFK and AFKO ( all are used in view definition )
    Now how can i ensure that from whcih table the data is getting filled to the BW info object?
    Any suggestions would be appreciated .

  • Increasing the length of Char type Info-object ( impact )?

    Hi,
    We are on BW3.5 version and we have a custom defined Info-object ZP_REPORT(say )whose length is 3 now as all the three digit series will be used up in near future we have a requirement to increase the length of the characteristic.
    This Info-object is used Navigation attribute of 0Material. And also this info-object is used as Navigational characteristic in few Info-cubes.
    Can any one please let me know what would be the impact of increasing the length?
    1)Do I need to delete the master data from this ZP_REPORT?
    2)DO I need to delete the master data from 0MATERIAL?
    3)Will there be any impact on Info-Cubes?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Ajay

    Hi Ajay,
    It is always big challenge to change the existing info object lengh or type or anything that have gone live already..........
    But if we will be very careful at the time of changing length and transport, we can do it succefully......
    Lets come to your scenario... In my understanding
    i) Your scenario is going to change the info object length that info object is only available for attribute. It is not at all used anywhere in the dimenstion table. So your cube will not be affected.... If problem will come your master data only will be affected.... Verify more than one time your info object is not at all used in any cubes. (Go to infoobject change mode check in where used list)
    ii) Before changing the length in development, data should be available in development cube as well as master data.. Because you can verify it in development itself whether the data will be deleted or not at the time of changing the length and activate the info object.
    iii) At the time of transport transport only the particular info object. Dont sent any other info objects. That might have related with any cube.
    iv) For safety purpose check whether your info cube is having which type of load. Either Full load or Delta. Most of the cubes will be having delta. If it is full, then we dont have more worry on that.
    v) Finally if possible, create one backup cube and back master data and load data from your existing cube to that cube. If the data will be more that 2 GB it is not a simple task to take a backup..... This is only for safty purpose......
    Please let me know your status...............

  • Restricting Authorization for a specific Info-object

    Dear All,
    I have a scenario where I have to restrict the account managers by specific channels.
    I have 2 info-objects, Sold-to party and Sales Channel. Sales Channel is defined as attribute of the the Sold-To Part info-object.
    I was exploring the BI authorizations concept in SCM 2007.
    I created a authorization called "Test" and assigned the info-object Sales Channel in the authorization and restricted it for one value. This authorization along with 0BI_ALL I have added to the role under BI authorizations.
    However in interactive demand planning, I cannot restrict by the sales channel. It allows me to load data for all the channels.
    If I remove 0BI_ALL object, then I cannot load anything in interactive planning.
    Does anyone have a step by step proceedure for using the BI authorization concept?
    Regards,
    Kedar

    Yes, 0TCAACTVT (activity), 0TCAIPROV (InfoProvider) and 0TCAVALID (validity) have to be made authorization relevant. For the info objects you want to use to control security, also make them authorization relevant in RSD1, imagine the object you want relevant is ZZ_VKORG (sales organization).
    Then use RSCEADMIN transcation and 0BI_ALL will include the objects from above, copy 0BI_ALL into a object such as Z_1000 and then change the value for the specific info object that you want to control, imagine that you want sales org 1000 only to be allowed within Z_1000.
    Now, you have 2 choices: You can use the normal security maintenance (SU01, PFCG) and you can asssign RSRS_AUTHBIAUTH and set BIAUTH requal to Z_1000 or you can use user maintenance directly within RSCEDAMIN and assign Z_1000 to the user. Either way, it becomes part of the authorization of the user.
    You may find that you need to introduce colon authorization concept ( for mixed levels of data and that is just a matter of adding a second line to the allowable values and setting it like "EQ :".
    Things to consider:
    1. This authorization concept is water tight and will do everything you need, but will do at the expense that if you don't model it first, you will kill yourself trying to make it right. This becomes evident when you trace a security issue (via RSCEADMIN) because the way BI7.0 works is that it will build a minimized superset of authorizations, so it is best to know where you want to get to, rather than starting off by where you know you need to go.
    2. To control change or display mode, you will need to influence 0TCAACTVT, even though you might think to use C_APO_SEL3 for ACTVT, the BI7.0 concept works within the BI space and 0TCAACTVT doesn't impact it.
    3. If you activate more info objects, 0BI_ALL will get updated automatically but your custom  authorization objecst will not. So, it is best to activate them all at the same time so that you don't have to manually change them.
    4. Do the work in development and transport it to the TEST/QA/PROD environments, there are transprt tools within the RSCEADMIN.
    This is probably enough to get you going, reply back if you have specific questions or issues.
    I've been thru this in a painful way, sometimes the best things learned are learned the hard way
