Requesting advice on how to initialize (delete) APO transaction data

Hello experts,
We are working on a project to implement a "clean", master-data-only APO system.  The APO system is to be created by doing a full backup of an existing APO system and restore as a new instance (then BDLS to change the system ID).
My question involves the removal of all transaction data (purchase orders, released production orders, sales orders, purchase requisitions, etc) from the new APO system.  We've tested several delete programs to try to remove these documents from APO (/SAPAPO/DELETE_PP_ORDER, /SAPAPO/RLCDELETE, /SAPAPO/SDRQCR21, /SAPAPO/SDORDER_DEL, /SAPAPO/OM_DELETE_INCON_ORDERS to name a few) with limited success.
Instead of removing these documents individually is it possible to simply re-initialize APO so that all transaction data is removed but all master data (PPMs, locations, products, transportation lanes, rules, etc) is kept intact?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hi David,
If you find the comprehensive solution, let me know!
I have had best luck with deactivating ALL IMs, then running CCR and deleting all marked as no active  model.  Then run the programs mentioned in your posting, as well as anything designed to make data 'consistant'.  After that, there are usually some aggravating bits that don't want to go away, which I have had to chase down and delete manually.  It is a tedious process, one that usually takes me a couple of days.

    HI.
    Do you mean refresh the client ? if that is the case, i think you are posting in wrong forum since this one is for People Centric User Interface. Try in   Customer "Relationship Management (CRM) - General & Framework".

    Do you mean iTunes library?
    iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.
    It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
    No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
    Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

  • How can we delete SID table data and Text table data

    Hi,
    How can we delete SID table data and Text table data of any
    InfoObject.

    Hi,
    Go to transaction SE14, give the technical name if the table:
    /BIC/T<InfoObject Name>   for Text Table
    /BIC/S<InfoObject Name>  for SID Table
    Select "Table" in the given 4 options below  &  hit Edit button.
    in the next screen select "Direct"
    & also select "detele data" radio button.
    & hit  "Activate & adjust database".
    this will delete the complete data from the tables.
    Note: before deleting the SID's make sure of the consequences & after effects.
    Also the SID gets generated the next time you load master data/transaction data only for those records which were loaded..

  • Why APO transaction data is not stored in tables

    Hi All,
    Why APO transaction data is not stored in tables.
    can u explain me.
    Babu

    Good question Babu,
    There indeed are tables for master data in APO database whereas the transaction data (qty, amount, dates and document numbers) are stored in a denormalized data base called livecache. But the master data too is identified with GUID's.. a cryptic and unique number given to e.g. a location, prodcuct, t/lane, customer and documents. This is because of speed of access if e.g. an external system is to fetch an information from APO using a unique session ID, instead of making a sequential read in APO tables, it read the live cache by called the GUID's that the calling characterics of the event. If one or more ECC system or an external execution system is connected to APO and one of the system collapses and rebuild again or if a system is assigned to a new business system group etc.. then its likely that systems can be out of sync and its where the live cache syncs up the data with APO tables again. If you still want to see tables in human readable format.. there are views available e..g the tables for locations LOCID and table for products MATLOC would take only GUID as inputs but the view V_MATLOC will show you the materials and locations by the numbers you know.
    Hope I was able to explain. But yes the why part is still something of a mystery to me.. becasue with transparent tables it is easier to create local reports in APO and thats what probably SAP doesnt want. SAP can answer best as to what were the initial user and commercial considerations when developing APO

  • How to divide the CRM transaction data by company cord?

    How to divide the CRM transaction data by company cord?
    CRM transaction have not company cord, so how to divide the data on BI report by company cord?
    Do I have to get the sales organization from customer master?
    Some transactions have not master data like lead. I want to know your experience.

    Hi
    This is self reply.
    I should use the sales organization instead of company cord.
    But some business like lead from contact from customer can not separate the company, in situation one call center for multiple companies.
    We should use another field to divide the company. Ex. Product, campaign, etc.
    If someone knows better way to solve this issue, let me know the reply.

    Hello!
    I've just purchased an Iphone 5 from a new carrier. Now I should like to sell my former Iphone 4 but, obviously, removing all my personal data (contacts, photographs, etc.) .  How can I transfer the ringtones that I purchased from by Iphone 4?
    How can I do it? Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

    backup the device and restore it as new.
    If you already have or don't need a backup:
    Erase your device
    Erasing all content and settings will delete all the data from your device, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. All device settings are restored to their factory condition.
    To remove all settings and information from your device, tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. For more information about this feature, see iOS: Understanding 'Erase All Content and Settings'.
    If you are unable to erase your device, restore the device using iTunes.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  for the exact steps.
    Transferring ringtones isn't supported, as far as I know...

    Hi turintest2
    Thanks for taking the time to respond - however your reply didn't really help as you haven't explained how to delete the compilation album that had been created.
    I managed to sort it out by doing the following (I'm posting this so that it may help others).  I don't know if this is the simplest/most elegant solution - but it works.
    In iTunes, find the compilation (in my case, the 153 songs) and, starting with the first song, follow this procedure:
    On the iPhone go to 'Songs' and scroll down the list until you find the first song that was listed in iTunes (above).  You should notice (as in my case) that the song will have the correct title (and artwork too if you'd found this previously before making the compliation) but the wring artist.
    Swipe LEFT and press the 'Delete' button.
    Repeat with second song in iTunes list, deleting the individual songs from the iPhone, one by one.
    Although tedious, this seemed to work for me.  Reason for doing down the iTunes list is that it is in a pseudo-alphabetical order and I wanted to make sure I'd got every one.
    Now busy re-importing the original albums from CD.
    Thank you APPLE for making this such a laborious process.  Why can't designers actually TEST the products they design so that they can appreciate first-hand the likely problems?
    Anyhow, thanks turintest2 for trying to help me - it was appreciated.

  • How do I delete my app data?!?!

    With some apps you can simply go to to the settings and there will be some way of deleting your data and starting from level 1, But from what I've seen there's no way to do that with this app. If it helps the app is called Fast and furious 6 the game or something. I want to start from the beginning. I've tried even reinstalling the app, but it apparently SAVES all the data (even though it clearly says that by uninstalling an app it will delete the data.) And I just want to flipping' reset it. That's all. It's there any way of deleting the saved data of just ONE app?

    You should be able to delete the application data of a specific application from Setting>General>Usage.  Some application will allow you to swipe the Documents & Data and select Delete. If this does not allow you to do so attempt deleting the application from here and re-downloading it. Also if you do not see the application immediately from Usage it may take a moment to load depending on how much content you have stored and may even require you to select Show all Apps at the bottom of the list. Hope this helps.
