SAP BC, Copying package

Hi,
I copied package one server to another server.
And I wanted to select replace some files, leave others and delete others.
So I released like an attached file 'e01.doc'.
But it failed as below.
Replace some files : success,
Leave others : success ,
Delete some files : failling.
What's the problem?
I want to release package and delete some files from the target package.
Plz tell me the way of the copy.
(I'm sorry that I'm poor in english.)
thanks.

you can add the pakages in Default package in SAP BC. With this you need to copy node and flow files in /ns folder
example
if you want to import a package name : Checklist
then go to SAP BC installation folder and then go to /server.
There you will find Default , SAP etc.
Copy your packages to Default/ ns/
and then restart Server and Developer, to make changes effective..

Error data file is empty in standard Copy package

Hi,
We have an appset that consists of four applications and we can't successfully run Data Manager Copy package in one of them. It launches the following tasks: Dump, Convert (execution fails in this step with error "Data file is empty") and Load. SSIS configuration in BIDS is defined by default and we haven't set any parameter.
We have figured out this error appears when we select any member of a dimension in "COPYMOVEINPUT" prompt except for Time dimension. Previously there was a custom Copy package based on standard BPC and it only filters by Time dimension. Perhaps this error is related to application configuration to run custom package.
We show code:
INFO(%TEMPFILE1%,%TEMPPATH%%RANDOMFILE%)
INFO(%TEMPFILE2%,%TEMPPATH%%RANDOMFILE%)
TASK(DUMP,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(DUMP,APP,%APP%)
TASK(DUMP,USER,%USER%)
TASK(DUMP,FILE,%TEMPFILE1%)
TASK(DUMP,SQL,%SQLDUMP%)
TASK(DUMP,DATATRANSFERMODE,2)
TASK(CONVERT,INPUTFILE,%TEMPFILE1%)
TASK(CONVERT,OUTPUTFILE,%TEMPFILE2%)
TASK(CONVERT,CONVERSIONFILE,%CONVERSION_INSTRUCTIONS%)
TASK(LOAD,APPSET,%APPSET%)
TASK(LOAD,APP,%APP%)
TASK(LOAD,USER,%USER%)

TASK(LOAD,DMMCOPY,1)
TASK(LOAD,CLEARDATA,%CLEARDATA%)
TASK(LOAD,RUNTHELOGIC,%RUNLOGIC%)
TASK(LOAD,CHECKLCK,%CHECKLCK%)
Any variables as %CONVERSION_INSTRUCTIONS% aren't defined. Is it a system constant?
Thanks.

COpy Package not working as it should in BPC V 5.0

Problem:-
When I choose Replace and Clear Data Values, it merges them .. I have run it few times and each time the data was duobled.
When I chose, Merge Data Values, it cleared and the numbers !!.
Possiable Cause:-
The function seems to be working in reverse order, Could this be bug in the SAP BPC v5.0?
If any of you have any idea how to fix this, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Sam

Hi Sam,
Check the modify script for the copy package by going to modify package, view script and advanced tab.
In script, in the prompt comand, '0' should be assigned to Merge data values and 1 to clear data. If it is in reverse order, change it and save it back.
Note that if you are using sql 2005, you can directly modify the script, if it is 2000, you need to modify the EVmodifyscript task in the DTS assigned to Copy package.
Hope this helps,
Kranthi

Regarding SAP PSS Business package import into NW 2004s Portal

Hi All,
    I am trying to import the SAP PSS business package into the SAP NW 2004s portal. I initially tried the SAP PSS 3.0 package. I copied this downloaded business package zip file into the
Drive:/usr/SAP/trans/EPS/IN folder structure. I then went into the JSPM folder in the Drive:/usr/SAP/SAP SID/J2EE/JSPM folder to start the deployment of the business package.
I selected the new software component and No NWDI Control as there is no NWDI control. In the next screen, I selected the SAP PSS business package's version and hit continue to proceed to the next step.
But, I am getting stuck with an error <b>"Error during validatiion of the dependencies of the selected Software components"</b>

Experiences on SAP Best Practise packages?

We are considering applying a specific SAP Best Practise package on top of ECC6. It will be a new ECC6 installation.
I have read the BP faq pages http://help.sap.com/bp_bw370/html/faq.htm and read note 1225909 - How to apply SAP Best Practices - and the specific note and the specific installation guide for required Best Practise package.
I understand that applying a BP package is something not that easy but should speed up the implementation process.
If you have been participating in a project that implemented SAP Best Practises on ERP, would you please share your experiences with me.
Here are some topics for discussion:
(BP=SAP Best Practise package)
BP implementation could make constraints to your future EHP or SP upgrades, while BP is tightly linked to certain EHP and SP-level?
SAP support?
Installation process including config steps according BP installation guide is longer than usual, while there can be multiple activation and configuration steps done by others than basis consultants?
BPs are country dependent. What if your application is used multinationally?
What if you later find BP unneccessary?
generate difficulties in the beginning but did considerably speed up reaching the final goal compared to ECC6 without BP.
traps to fall in?
typical issues that basis staff has to notify when preparing/installing a ERP system to be with BP?
positive/negative things
I am not saying above statements are true or false. Just wanted to charge you giving comments.

Hi,
Make sure your web service URL correct in Live Office connection and also in Xcelsius data manager.
Did you check all connection in refresh button proprties? you may try selecting "Refresh after component are Loaded" in Refresh button properties Behavior tab.
I think Xcelsius refresh are serial refresh so it may be possible that first component refresh is still in progress but you are expecting other component to refresh.
Click on "Enable Load Cursor" in data manager's Usage tab, it will give you visibility of refresh. If anything refreshing you will see hour glass.
Cheers

Error while using Copy Package

Hi,
I want to copy data from category BudgetV1 to BudgetV2,
I have tried to use Copy Package but I always get error with
error message "The file is empty".
Can anyone help me with the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please check if you have data in category BudgetV1. This error normally occurs when there is no data in source specified in COPY package. Make sure to select appropriate members when you specify other source dimensions.
Hope this helps.

Standard BPC Copy Package Fails

Has anyone experienced the standard copy package failing in BPC? I get the error message: 'Object variable or With block variable not set'.

I tried to submit data via an input template and received the same error (Object Variable or With block variable not set). I checked the security and the ID has all functionality access. The member is a base member. I also had the server rebooted and still no luck.
Below is the detail log of the copy pkg:

Copying Packaging Spec

When I am copying packaging spec, the fields 'Category', 'Sub-Category' & 'Group' are getting copied over, however the fields under 'Available UOM', 'UOM Conversions' and Cross Reference' are not getting copied, whether I choose to keep the copied Spec linked to the Template or not. [Both the Spec copied from and the Template used has those UOM/Cross reference fields defined] . Aren't those UOM/Cross reference fields suppose to be copied over to the new Spec? When I create a new Spec from Template, system brings over all fields [UOM/Cross reference etc.] from Template, so I was expecting the same behavior while copying too, since I am linking to the Template during the copying process. Can someone shed some light on this issue please?

I believe that the functional use cases are different. When you are copying from a Template, you are not copying a real existing specification - rather, you are creating a spec with values that should be there by default. These values from a template are typically not meant to be specific to one single specification, but rather to a grouping/classification of specs. Perhaps a Beverage type specification, created from a Beverage template, would have certain Available UOMs that a Sauce specification would not. Cross References on a template may be used for pack size purposes, which may also be specific to a template.
When you copy an existing specification, the assumption is that the specification is linked to some external system(s) using the cross references - if those were copied over, you could have an possible discrepancy. Also, since you are doing a copy and not a new revision, we assumed the UOM info would be different so is is cleared out.

SAP SD- ABAP- Package

Hi Everyone.
This question is more specific to SD- ABAP.
I have a small doubt.
When saving tables (v/03) SAP asks for packages.
If we are aware of the package, we can give it. However, at times I have found it blank.
How we can come to know which package we should apply for which table?
Moreover, if we keep at as blank also and click on local object, the tables gets saves? Where the data of the table gets saved? And if is saved is it on temporary basis?
Can anyone tell me the difference?
Would request you to please not use technical language. I am a functional consultant and have tried to search on google, however was not able to understand in a simple way.
Text Removed
thanks and regards.

Please dont add such text while posting

Hi Shekhar
Please don't write such statement in your question. It is not going to attract some user in fact it goes negative in your favor because it is not as per forum rules to tempt someone to answer your query and you will reward. If possible edit your text.
For your query let me be very honest with you. I am also functional and dont know where it is saved if we save it with local package. I know only this that if you give local package it can't be transported in some other system i.e. QAS or PRD. May be it is just for testing purpose within one system in a landscape. Difference is that local package table can't be transported and your Z package tables can be transported.
I have created many tables and I always used ZSD package which our technical guys gave us to use for all SD related customization. Whenever I create some table or any other ABAP customization I use this package. You can also use standard ones but again system wont recommend that and will give you warning message. It is similar if you use SAP name space for some condition type or document type name.
Bottom line is that ask your technical guys to give you a package which you can use for all SD customizations and use that for all tables.
Thank$

Error with standard Copy package

Hello!!
When I run the standard copy package selecting the option "Replace & clear data values" the execution finishes with status error and I receive the next error message in the log:
Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: '[Invalid time Member] - EN_NONE|DSP_INPUT|2004_UPA_SEPT|' Key being added: '[Invalid time Member] - EN_NONE|DSP_INPUT|2004_UPA_SEPT|'
If I run the package with the option "Merge" it executes OK.
Anybody help?
Thank you in advance

Hello,
You probalby get this error message beacuse you have not setup the Work Status for this application. Please defined the Work Status you want to use on the appset level and then define the dimensions you want to use to control the work status on the application level. That should solve your issue.

Adding a table (JCDS) to a copy package

We have used TDMS many times now, and our end users have identified a table they would like to add to our transfer. Table JCDS.
Question, Does anyone know how to add a table to a copy package?
The step "Select Tables for reduction" does not appear when we choose to copy an existing package to transfer data again.
Thanks,
Anthony

I am assuming you mean TDTIM type package though not sure how you can re-use a TDTIM package.
You may not find this table in the reduction activity since it may be defined as u201Cno transferu201D in Config.
To set it transferable go to transaction CNVMBTCOBJ and set this table as transferable by unchecking No Trans flag.

Reg:Copy package problem BPC 7.5

Hi Experts,
i am using standard data manager COPY Package to copy data from one category to another .While copying i use merge functionality but it clear all data in destination category and replaces the data.not sure its BI issue or BPC issue?
Regards,
Vikram

Hello,
I know this post is old, but maybe someone is still looking.
In order not to lose data, you need to try and restrict the dimensions in the left side of the prompt to the members that you want to change, because the copy package first removes all data from destination and then writes the new records. It considers that if you want to copy something over, then data is already present so it doesn't need the old data. The records that will be deleted are selected using the key defined in the right side.
If you want to change a record with key ACC1+B1 to ACC1+B2, you need to specify on the left side ACC1+B1 and on the right side ACC1+B2 (obviously) and data on ACC2+B2 ACC3+B2 and ACC4+B2 will not be deleted, BUT only if this 2 fields represent your entire key.
If the key in your BPC Model contains also other dimensions, and you do not specify a member for them (left side ANY and right side SAME), the package will first delete all data using the right key and then copy the records from the source.
Let's say you also have the dimension TIME, so we need to copy ACC1+B1+2014.01 to ACC1+B2+2014.01, and we already have a record ACC1+B2+2014.02 present. If you set filter to ACC1+B1 on the left side and ACC1+B2 on the right side, the package will first use the right key ACC1+B2 to delete all data present (so the record ACC1+B2+2014.02 present will be removed) and then copy your data changing B1 to B2. However, if you also specify the field TIME in your filter, then the package will use the combination ACC1+B2+2014.01 in order to delete the data present in the system (at this point nothing) and then copy the data.
Hope it helps,
Ana-Maria

Launch Copy Package for OWNERSHIP app from within the FINANCE app

Is it possible to launch the standard COPY package from within another application?
My case is:
I have an OWNERSHIP application with the standard dimensions ENTITY,TIME,CATEGORY,OWNACCOUNT,INTCO. I would like to copy my ownership data from one period to another as it is faster than doing data input for all my entities
Now the challenge:
I would like to launch this standard COPY package that copies OWNERSHIP data from within the FINANCE application. Otherwise the user always needs to switch from applications.
I know it was possible in v4, but I seem to forget something when trying it v7.0 SP7.
Any help is much appreciated

Dear Shoba,
I tried the following macro
Sub copytest()
Application.Run ("MNU_eData_SelectPackage(""Copy"",""system files/Copy.dtsx"",""Company"",""Ownership"")")
End Sub
When I was in the legalapp, copy package was opened but with the dimensions of the legalapp
When I changed of to the ownership and tried the macro again, it gave me the good dimensions, but that was not the purpose
When I copied the package and changed the %APP%ù it didnt work either
I even changed %dim% to ownaccount,time,category,legalentity,intco and then the good dimensions appeared when launching the package but he gave an error when selection ownaccount, as it is not a dimension of the legalapp.
Do you see other possibilities?
br,
Benjamin

The record count would be correct, but even though it says accepted, the data is not in the database when I check. I can manually enter data into the period in question and the copy package is identical to the one in the consolidation application where it works just fine.
Does anyone have an idea what the problem could be?
