Reporting on Multi Cube

Hi Gurus,
This is my first message into the forum. I am new to BW reporting and I have a question. It may sound basic to experts like you, but any explanations would be greatly appreciated and I know here thank you means POINTS...
My question is ,
I create multi cube , based oit of two ODS's(DSO).
I have some fields which are common , like sales document number , plant etc
I have some fields which are unique to ODS's, for e.g I have a field Delivery Statusand Document Category which is only in ODS A.
Now, when I do a LISTCUBE on the Multicube I see 2 records for that sales doc number.
Records 1 has sales doc number and all the details that i chose with delivery status and document category fields being blank.
Record 2 has sals doc number and delivery status and document category fields polpulated with all the other fields blank.
I checked the Identification in Mullticube and I have checked both the ODS for common fields ,sales doc number and plant.
When I develop a query and run the report I don't get values for fields Delivery status and document category. I think its because the query is loking into the first record only and does not find the values for delivery status and document category.
How can I restrict this characteristics in the report to who me values for ODS A only? I read in the some post that we need to create a structure > new selection> add the characteristics( delivery status)--> add the characteristics source system( and restrict it byODS2.
This is not working, as far as my knowledge goes , we cannot create a restricted characteristics , am i correct ?
PLease do let me know...I shall be grateful and shall assign points...
Thanks in advance..

Hi Srini,
Thanks for your response, but I am not sure how I can restrict a characteristics based no another characteristics..? Can you please let me know in detail as to how to do it.
I tried creating a struct--> new selection > sleect the characteristic i want to restrict> select the 0INFOPROV and restrict it toDSO A. IN doing that I don't get any characteristics values in the report for this selection.

Report on Virtual cube is not working.

Hi,
I created a report on virtual cube, Virtual cube is based on Function module which will pick data from Multiprovider, In the FM mention the import parameter name as " Muli Provider" Name.
Multiprovider built on SPO object , On SPO object BIA is created, If can de activate the BIA on SPO then the report built on virtual cube is working in the portal. If I can activate the BIA the report is not working in the portal.
The report is working fine in RSRT and Analyzer either BIA is active and deactive.
Regards
GK

Hi
The multi cube you created must be comprising of Info cubes, DSO and Info objects. Now this error which you are getting is it for
- a specific characteristics or
- any characterisitcs that is entered fourth in the series of filter selections or
- the fourth value in a specific characteristics
Is the characteristics and the value which you use in filter present in all the underlying objects included in the multi cube ? You can check it in each of the objects associated in the multi cube, independently. This will give you an idea as to whether the error reported by the system is genuine or not.

Hi

If you want any other objects are related to this IO U can do this with Multiprovider.

BI 7.0 can we build a INFOSET on a Multi Cube and Infoobject

Hi
In BI 7.0 can we build a INFOSET on a Multi Cube and Infoobject
Thanks

Hi,
No not possible.
You can include any DataStore object, InfoCube or InfoObject of type Characteristic with Master Data in a join. A join can contain objects of the same object type, or objects of different object types. You can include individual objects in a join as many times as you want. Join conditions (equal join condition) connect the objects in a join to one another . A join condition specifies the combination of individual object records included in the results set.

Reporting on Virtual Cube - DTP Authorisation is required??

Hi all,
Say there is a Virtual Cube V, i have multiprovider on top of it M, When i am running report on this M, it is saying as there should authorization to run the DTP's.
Is it necessary to have DTP authorizations, to run a report on Virtual cube??
Please let me know how to overcome this, other than including DTP authorizations in the User roles.
Let me know your suggestions.
Thanks,
Sowrabh

Hi Krishnan,
Yes Users needs to run the report in front end.
Can we give authoraztions for only these particular DTPs that to in display mode, so that they can run the queries??
Would there be any issues by doing so??
Thanks,

Hi,
Lets say you have two smart styles with X and Y, and runtime based on the number of pages, if you would like to modify the style, then check any standard table or structue which holds and responsible for the holding the style value.
If you can trace that, based on the coding we can modify accordingly.

What are the fundamentals concepts to know about BEX Queries on Multi Cube?

Hi ALL,
i have executed a Bex Query on a Multi Cube (2 Cubes: SalesAnalysis, SalesAnalysisHistoric) but i havn't received the same data that we have in R/3, after i have executed the same query on just one cube (SalesAnalysis) and the result it was correct.
please can Somebody explain me the basic concept relation between the datatargets when i execute a query on a Multicube? how BW server try to find data and what is the criteria and the relation between the various caracteristics and key figures of the Multicube components? there some fundamentals join?
when i create i query on a Multicube and i choose a caracteristic or a key figure how can i know that caracteristic or key figure is from one cube or another cube?
Thanks For ALL
Bilal

Hi Bilal,
Multiprovider is not a join, it is actually a union of the data. So all the data of the base data targets used in the MP will combine subject to the settings made in identification and selection screens of the multiprovider. In the query designer, the source of the KF or char is transparent to you....you cannot make out until you open the MP in the edit mode.
Hope this helps...

Using Multi-cubes in an InfoSet

SAP BI 700
Here is my problem.
Using transaction RSA1, I have a multi-cube pointing to 3 identical cubes(one cube per year) I need to join the multi-cube to another cube with matching keys.
Looks like I should be looking at using an InfoSet but I do not see how to use a Mutli-cube in an Infoset.
I know I could add all cubes from my original Multi-cube directly to the InfoSet but this would result in a join and not a union of cubes.
Any suggestions?
Tks.

Yes MP will be used in your case you want to have Union not infoset:
Check this example:
Consider.
InfoProvider 1:
0CALMONTH 0 //PLANT// STOCK
200601 PLANT_1 100
200602 PLANT_1 110
InfoProvider 2:
0CALMONTH //0PLANT //0VENDOR //ORDER_QUANTITY
200601 PLANT_1 VENDOR_A 70
200602 PLANT_1 VENDOR_B 60
And You 3 infoprovider:
If you design a MultiProvider having all the 3 characteristics:
0CALMONTH, 0PLANT, and 0VENDOR.
But as a matter of fact, it'd be useless.
MultiProvider:
0CALMONTH 0PLANT 0VENDOR STOCK ORDER_QUANTITY
Union of the data in the MultiProvider:
200601 PLANT_1 VENDOR_A 0 70
200601 PLANT_1 # 100 0
200602 PLANT_1 VENDOR_B 0 60
200602 PLANT_1 # 110 0
As you see, the stock data are thoroughly assigned to the vendor code # (i.e. not assigned). That's expected, as the stock data (in InfoProvider 1) are not at the vendor granularity level. On the other hand, the order data have the vendor detail.
An InfoSet with the right join condition would present these data:
0CALMONTH //0PLANT //0VENDOR //STOCK//ORDER_QUANTITY
200601 PLANT_1 VENDOR_A 100 70
200602 PLANT_1 VENDOR_B 110 60

Hiding Variables in new Multi Cube

Hello Experts,
we will develop a new Multi Cube but with less fields but with the same Info Objects. Therefore I don't need all of the existing variables. Is there any possibility to hide the not required variables for the new Multi cube?
Thanks in advance.
AK

Hello,
first, my name is Anastasios
We have a MC with for example 100 Info Objects. Now we want to use just 60 of them in another MC but I don't want to use all the variables.
Example:
IO1 has 10 variables in MC1
IO2 should have 3 variables in the new MC2
Is this possible? If yes, how could I do this?
Thanks and Regards,
AK

Multi Cube In BI7

Hi,
How to create Multicube in BI7 version .
Thanks,

Hi,
Yes, Both multiprovider and Multi cube are same.This is a virtual provider.
In BIW 3.5 we say it as Muticube (which you can create on cubes only)
In BI7.0 we say it as Mutiprovider(which can be created on combination of any infoproviders)
To create an Multiprovider click on the info area and in contextmenu you will find the option to create the Multiprovider

Pass parameter to ssrs report based on cube

hi folks:
I am working on a weekly report based on cube. Users are able to pull out data by themselves using excel. Now they want this to be scheduled to run on a weekly basis via SSRS. The date hierarchy (date.calendar) is like this: Year -> Quarter
-> Month -> Week
I want users to be able to pick any week (only one week) they want and run the report. I understand I need to create a parameter @week .
The problem is how to populate this parameter @week in mdx since the source is a cube db.
Any idea?
Thanks
Hui
--Currently using Reporting Service 2000; Visual Studio .NET 2003; Visual Source Safe SSIS 2008 SSAS 2008, SVN --

Thanks Charlie, your solution is pretty close now. When I try out the shareddataset via cube, I found the following statement in the query via query designer:
WHERE ( [Checkoutdate].[Fiscal Year Calendar].[Week].&[23]&[2014]&[2]&[6] )
23 is the week no, 2014 is the year, 2 is the quarter and 6 is the month. I intend to create 4 parameters so that users could pick year, quarter , month and week.
The question here is the sequence, do I have to strictly follow the sequence [week - year - quarter - month] or it doesn't matter?
SELECT {STRTOMEMBER("[Date].[Calendar Weeks].[Calendar Week].&["+@Week+"]&["+@Year+"]&["+@quarter+"]&["+@month+"]
")} ON 0
or can I go like this as it's more intuitive:
SELECT {STRTOMEMBER("[Date].[Calendar Weeks].[Calendar Week].&["+@year+"]&["+@quarter+"]&["+@month+"]&["+@week+"]
")} ON 0

Does BEX Report supports Multi Languages????

Dear Gurus,
Does Bex report supports Multi Languages???? I mean, I had developed a report for the client and client wants the report for their different locations globally. Is there any way in BI, so that we can provide the same report into Spanish, French....
Thanks in advace....

Sure. It is supported.
Just a point to be mentioned here.
You have to maintain the laguage desired installed on ABAP side first.
You can chck this on RZ10 - Parameter: zcsa/installed_languages.
Ex: zcsa/installed_languages - ED
it means English and Deutsch
Well, open Query Designer. On Logon screen, select the language desired, like Spanish - ES.
After that, go to each keyfigure and characteristic of the query and on Properties -Description Field (Descripción on spanish),
put the spanish name of the object.
Save the query and test on both languages (original and spanish or french)...
This will solve your issue.

Report on multi provider

hi ,
i have created a report on a multi provider which contains 1 basic cube and 3 trans cubes.
when i generate a report on this mp i am getting the report in this manner .the field r not coming on the same line.

002 cde 1500
003 ghi 2000
1000
1700
1800
2500
like this i am getting.i want see them on the same .
can anybody suggest me a solution.
and what si the use of integration tab in multi provider.why do we need to check some of the chars in that option.
thanks
sridhar

Hi Sridhar,
1)In Multiprovider Tab Characteristics there is a button: "Identification", here the system ask you to define how the different IO of the different cubes have to be related. If the cubes are identic you have to flag all the flag for the same IO for every cube (pay attention to IO and Nav Attribute).
2)When an IO is in a Cube but it is not present in the other cubes, for avoid the null symbol in query, you have to right click on the Key Figures on your query and select "Properties --> Constant Selection" or, in case of RKF, select "Constant Selection" for the IO in the RKF.
Ciao.
Riccardo.
