Reporting in BCS

Hi,
  We are implementing BCS,but the data need to be load from SAP R/3 , flat file load to cube,and user entry data,as the cube is virtual cube how can i load data to this cube,i need to create reports on it.
  Can any one give some information on it.
Thanks,
Bala

Welcome to SDN!
As voodi pointed out, your cube on which you build your queries is virtual. It means that the functional module module built in the cube reads the content of the real-time cube, transforms the data and shows it to a user.
It might depend, but in many cases, you just install from the business content the 0BCS_C11 cube, copy it to your custom cube and customize it. This customized cube is your real-time cube where you'll load all the data (from BW or flat files).
The virtual cube doesn't contain any data, it just shows the query result.

  • Funds Managment - BCS Reports

    Hi -
    We are implementing BCS in ecc 6.0, System specifically pops up that former budgetting is not suggested for new customers etc. now, my question is can I use reports under formar budgetting menu even after specifically configuring BCS.I am not convinced with the reports available under BCS node of informatin system. Most importantly , I dont see any drill down reports under BCS, where as i see them under former budgetting for e.g. Overview ( Former budgetting). Currently testing in Sandbox.
    When I run FMB_PT01 - Total records  under Commitment and Actual with Budget (BCS), Report doesn't show up the name of commitment item or fund center.
    Please advise
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You should not use any FBS reports under BCS regime. Former budgeting use different tables, thus making their reporting unuseful for BCS. What reports exactly do you miss in BCS? Keep in mind, that for the commitments/actuals reporting there is no difference between FB and BCS, the reports are different only for budget and AVC tables.

  • Export BW-BCS data to the ECC

    Hi,
    I got request to create this customized report: ECC-BCS GL Statement Report in ECC. Basically in this report, user can compare the total GL figure in both server: ECC and BCS. At the same time, user also can track all the adjustment done in BCS via UCMON.
    List of report fields:
    below list is from ECC table
    1. Company Code
    2. GL Account
    3. GL Description
    4. Total GL in ECC
    below list is from BCS table
    5. BCS-00 --> for posting level 00
    6. BCS-01 --> for posting level 01
    7. Total GL in BCS (00 + 01)
    8. ECC-BCS Diff (4 - 7)
    To get the BCS data into ECC, my plan is to create the RFC programming.
    I managed to get field 1 til field 4 by calling tcode F.01. To get field 5 til field 7 is from List of Totals Records report in UCMON.
    At first I thought to use BDC to call the the report in UCMON. Then i got problem on the screen handling.
    My last choice is to find the exact table for that report in BW. then using select statement, I pull data for field 5 til field 7. But then, until now I can't find the table that keep all the BCS data. I managed to display the data from the cube (ZBCS_C11). Now I need to know how to export the BCS data to the ECC.
    Appreciate if you could share some input on this. Otherwise my user have to maintain download the GL number from ECC and BCS. Using both information, user need to v-lookup to match the BCS to ECC
    thanks

    Hi Alisher,
    You are refering to transformation file for record count. But in transformation file we mention the IDs which are displayed in some other format and we want to change them to the other.
    In your case, would like to know, do you have some property in dimension which displays the record counts? If you have then you can design it using transformation and conversion files. But incase you dont have any such property then you can not add new column in the export file.
    Hope this clarifies.

  • Hierarchy in RSA1 and cargo to the SEM BCS

    Dear Friends
    If I create a hierarchy in RSA1 in BW and loads it into the SEM BCS hierarchy I can use is to Consolidation?
    tks Regards

    When a hierarchy is created in BW for BCS purposes it must be synchronized into BCS via program UGMDSY20. However it may not be complete enough for BCS purposes as BW is for reporting and BCS needs additional information for cons group hierarchies. For example, BCS needs period and year of first consolidation. Therefore you can synchronize BW to BCS but then update BCS after the synchorization is complete.

    bye

    COPA Infocube exist with data. Client is keen to compare the COPA data only with BCS data.
    COPA data has company code and costing based COPA model strucutre.
    This is being compared with BCS Item to derive the differences since  auditer beleives there is a difference between the COPA report and BCS report. Ofcourse this is a mindset which causes to have a concern like this.
    They donot want to compare to any other cubes.
    My thought is to data mart the copa data and using transfer rules map the copa keyfigure to items in a staging  cube. Can we map the keyfigure to charecteristic master data in the data model and compare the similar data.
    Please let me know any suggestions on this.

    How to demonstrate monthly budget when compared with actual?

    Hi,
    First of all, the standard reports in BCS are not that useful; you have to build one yourslef by ReportPainter (4FM library). Second, there is no standard report for monthly representation of the budget.

  • Changing BDC / Assigning new BDC

    Hi,
    We are planning to change Item Master data BDC assignment and change BDC. This we are doing to take out Assets/Equity overview reports from BCS.
    1-Changing Existing BDC to include Movement Type of Type 02 (Reqd,if blank default)
    2-Assigning BDC with Movement Type of type 02 (Reqd, if blank default) to items
    3-Assigning BDC with Movement Type of type 03 (Reqd, default allowed) to items

    Hi UR,
    In my experience I had a lot of problems when changed any BDCs and tried to inverse some entries posted with the old BDCs.
    In your case, if you are sure that there will not such situations in the future, I'd go ahead. Cannot be sure on 100%. I'm ready to be corrected if anyone has more experience in the question.

  • Use of 0REFPER in multiprovider reporting with virtual provider in BCS

    Hi all,
    We're using the multiprovider reporting option in BCS 6.0 / BI7.
    As you may know the data in the 'closed periods' provider is populated with closed requests, which need not necessarily be for individual periods (this is different to BCS 4/BW3.5)
    As far as I understand from my discussion with the BI team, in the 'closed periods' provider each reference period is populated with ALL data for the year (so a January record appears in 0refper = 01,2008 and also 0refper = 02,2008, whereas a February record only appears in 0refper = 02,2008).
    Reporting on a specific reference period will provide data relevant to the hierarchies effective at that reference period.
    BUT when the virtual provider is taken in to account for March, surely the reference period is now 03,2008 - so how will the multiprovider choose any records from the 'closed periods' cube?
    What I'm not sure about is how the BI report should be structured in terms of 0REFPER selection to ensure that the relevant closed period data is selected alongside the virtual provider data.
    I haven't found anything in the help documentation, or the SDN forum - has anyone found a useful source of guidance from SAP?
    If not, has anyone got experence of this?
    (of course, points will be provided for all useful answers).

    Thanks Dan,
    I would caution about the use of 0refper for the multiprovider scenario.
    Have you used the multiprovider scenario? There is good documentation from SAP on how to set it up but nothing on how the queries/reports should be built. When BCS generates the multiprovider and virtual provider, it adds in 0refper (and the others)
    It is my understanding that the closed-period records are stored with cons group as opposed to those of the virtual infoprovider where cons group is only included for posting levels 02, 12, 22 and 30.
    + Thus if the organization/cons groups are changed, it could cause reporting issues unless the closed-period infoprovider is repopulated using the new or changed cons groups.+This was my understanding too, but the BI team are telling me it is NOT required in BCS 6 / BI7.
    I will investigate further an post my analysis back here.
    In the meantime if anyone else has experience of the multiprovider scenario reporting, espcially in BCS 6 / BI7. Then please do post your experiences here.

  • SEM-BCS (BW Reporting)

    Hi All,
    I would like to know how SEM-BCS stores data (balance values) in BW cube. If I have to generate a B/S report, how would I restrict the Key Figure to show balance as of the 2nd quarter?  The issue is the ranging of the Posting Period.  Is it (4 to 6) or 6(Last month of quarter) or (1 to 6)?
    Thank.

    it depends what you want. you want to show cumulative balance or non-cumulative balance from ytd.
    since it is balance sheet, i would assume u r refereing to the cumulative balance from ytd ( which also includes the balance carry forward.)
    in that you can restrict it to period 1 through 6.
    other case:
    you report only shows the monthly balances or transactions in the month. then you can go for period restriction period 6.
    hope this helps.
    Regards,
    BWer

  • Report Does Not Display Data from Non-BCS Cube

    Hi,
    I have the following scenario.
    I have a MultiProvider with two real-time cubes. Cube A is used to store Actual data and Cube B is used to store Budget data.
    Cube A is used by BCS, so the real-time load behavior is set to "Real-Time Data Target Can Be Planned; Data Loading Not Alllowed".
    Cube B is not used by BCS, so data is being loaded using BW InfoPackages, with real-time behavior set to "Re-Time Data Target Can Be Loaded With Data; Planning Not Allowed"
    My BCS has two Consolidation Group hierarchy. One is for Legal reporting and another one is for Business Segment reporting. So, if I have a Consolidation Unit, COMPANY1, it would belong both hierarchies, e.g. LEGAL1 and BSEG1.
    In my query, I have no problem displaying Actual data when I specified Reporting Mode (0BCS_REPMOD) = Standard. (S). However, Budget data does not get displayed. FYI, I have uploaded data twice for each record i.e. LEGAL1 and BSEG1 in the Cons Group (0SEM_CGCOMP) characteristic.
    Any idea on how can I get the budget data displayed?
    Thanks.

    Hi Jyoti,
    The totals are stored in FMBDT for budget and in FMAVCT for AVC.
    The budget lines are stored in FMBDP (FMBH for headers).

  • SEM BCS-BW Reports development

    Hi All,
    I need help and suggestion from your side .
    We have X -reports in SAP-BW whcih are actual & planning cubes based .
    We have  Reporting & Total cubes in separate system (SEM-BCS)
    So req is that we need to develop Y-new reports in SEM-BCS as it is the X-reports which are avialable in SAPBW.
    Problem is that while developing new Y Reports in SEM-BCS many Char Infobjects & Time Char,Key fig are missing in SEM-BCS cubes .
    Please suggest me how to proceed.
    Thanks&Regards
    Venkat

    Hi Venkat,
    I'm afraid that there is not much we can help you with. Everything in your case depends on the specifics, details.
    I can give only some suggestions. In many cases it's either impossible or meaningless to build all the reports from one reporting cube. That's why, first of all, try (yourself or with the help of functional people) separate all the reports you need to build into 1. using non-consolidated data (it might be a simple sum of all ConsUnits figures, without eliminations) and 2. using consolidated data.
    For 1st category, I beleive, you may use just BW cubes. For the 2nd one - BCS cubes. Take into account that the BCS cubes have some limitations on the key figures and time chars usage. And it's not prudent (or feasible) to insert such non-standard (for BCS) infoobjects. Insist on reasonable limitation of reports to be built from the BCS cubes by those which are really relevant for consolidation.
    Another investigation to be considered is: examine if planning, forecating and actual data are comparable -- I met such a situation when details and subassignments of budget data was significantly different from those of actual.

  • How can we disable a particular field in BI,BCS Report in Portal

    Hi Friends,
    I have one doubt in Portal.
    How can we disable a particular field in BI,BCS Report in Portal depending up on user.
    For Exam: In Our Application can we divided in to 3 Categories. Managerial, Regional and Supervisor.
    Manager having all authorizations. So here I donu2019t have any problem.
    When Regional Manager logs in portal Depending up on that Regional Plant number will be in Disable mode.
    EX: India Regional Manager logs in portal Plant number Files == IND123 Like in BI Report
           UK Regional Manager logs in portal Plant number Files == UK154   Like in BI Report
    When Supervisor logs in portal Depending up on that Regional Plant number will be in Disable mode and also Company Code also in disable mode
    EX: India Supervisor logs in portal Plant number Files == IND123 Like in BI Report and also Company code input file is ABC is in Disable mode
        In India Another Supervisor logs in portal
    India Supervisor logs in portal Plant number Files == IND123 Like in BI Report and also Company code input file is ASD is in Disable mode
           UK Supervisor logs in portal Plant number Files == UK154   Like in BI Report and also Company code input file is XYZ is in Disable mode
    This is my Req; How can we do there. Could you help me.
    Give me these Ans:
    1. Is it Feasible in portal.
    2. Depending upon user we can disable particular filed in Portal.
    3. Can we find out who is login in Portal. by Using BI System. in WDJ We can Find out Like IUSER Code Same as BI Developer also Find it. Is it Possible or not.
