SAP BI Technical Content

Hello Forum
We have a requirement to know how frequently a particular query is used.
I came across few tables which gave me the time stamp when the query was last used however could not find any table to get the logs of query execution.
Can anyone please advice how this can be achieved ?
Regards
Ashish

Hello Ashish,
Have you used ST03n? You should be able to find your answers there.
Or if you have the BI Admin Cockpit: [Technical Content|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/46/f9bd550d40537de10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]
Thanks,
Nick

Install SAP Technical Content

I have heard about installation of Technical Content.
Can any one tell me how to install SAP Technical Content and why we used it.

Hi
After a new install or upgrade, Technical Content will be installed automatically after you run TCODE Rsa1 (BI_TCO_ACTIVATION) for the first time. It is used for the BI Stats and authorization to mention a few.
See OSS note 979581 for more details.
Thanks

Unused queries & Technical Content

Hi folks,
I need to find out the unused queries (e.g. the ones that weren't used in last 13 months). As far as I know the best way is to use the technical content (0BWTC_C10); but unfortunately it's not active in our system at the moment.
Another option is, using the "Last Used" field of RSZCOMPDIR. We have another "but" here. I've figured out that this field is updated even though a query is opened in query designer.
My questions are:
1. Any ideas for defining such queries in this situation?
2. What are the disadvantages of using this technical content? (I mean the extra work load at server-side.)
Thanks.

hi pekcan,
you can run transaction rszdelete to get a list of all queries not used for a defined time.
Unused/unnecessary Queries can lead to higher times in the 'Open' &#56256;&#56526; 'Query' dialog. They also cause an unnecessary allocation of disk space.
Check regularly whether queries are really still in use. The 'Last Used' field in transaction RSZDELETE (Delete Objects) is related to table RSZCOMPDIR. 'Last Used' is updated in table RSZCOMPDIR with the exact timestamp of when queries are executed with the BEx Analyzer or Web Frontend.
to get some idea regarding technical content, use the links.

Error while trying to access data from virtual provider - Technical Content

Hi,
I am trying to install the new BI 2004s technical content. I am done with the installation I am trying to display data for the remote cubes delivered i.e. 0TCT_VC11/21 etc. but getting an error:
Error reading the data of InfoProvider 0TCT_VC11
There is still no data source assigned to VirtualProvider 0TCT_VC11
The virtual providers are of type "virtual provider based on DTP" since standard technical content didnt have any DTPs for the VC cubes I tried to create some direct access DTPs based on datasources 0TCT_DS11 but there also getting error:
Source doesnt support direct access
I saw the type for datasource 0TCT_DS11 and its using SAP SAPI and not direct access and couldnt change the type actually the same datasource is also used by cube 0TCT_C11 so changing the type probably wouldnt have been a good idea.
I found the following notes 996735 and implemented its change...but no use...
we are on SP10 and content 7.03 SP2. Can anybody please help??

Hi all,
The above mentioned solution is a good idea but in this context not appropriate as it aims at resolving an issue in the delivered Content Version of 0TCT_VC11.
In your case, you already have 0TCT_VC11 activated and you can not read any data from this VirtualProvider in queries. Right?
In that case, you have to:
1. Check that the entire data flow is active for the InfoProvider (activation should occur for the MYSELF source system): 0TCT_VC11 with InfoSource 0TCT_IS11 with DataSource 0TCT_DS11
2. Activate the direct access for the VirtualProvider (Context menu of 0TCT_VC_11 > Activate Direct Access > Source Syst. for InfoSource3.x > Mark the column with the MYSELF source system and Save).
This corresponds to Installation "Step 5.) Activate direct access for virtual providers" that is mentioned in SAP Note 934848 "Collective note: (FAQ) BI Administration Cockpit".

Slow Moving Item Scenario - Technical content for Queries

Hello
Due to preparations for upgrade to BW 7.30 we would make an analysis of not or seldom used BEx reports (queries, workbooks, etc.)
All of unused objects should be deleted in advance of an upgrade.
I checked if there is a query which shows slow moving items for queries.
Is there any technical content (query) which reports this scenario for BEx objects?
Thanks for any advise.

follow steps in this doc:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/11291595-0501-0010-c881-e02c27261b55

Technical Content Activation failed

Hi guys,
I tried to activate Technical Content via SPRO's Activate Technical Content in SAP NetWeaver BI.
However, I am facing with these problems:
1. If I choose only Activate SAPI DataSources, I will get a time out.
2. If I choose only Activate Technical Content, I will get the following error message:
Runtime Errors         UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION
Exception              CX_RS_VERSION_NOT_FOUND
Date and Time          23.07.2008 09:38:27
Short text
     An exception occurred that was not caught.
What happened?
     The exception 'CX_RS_VERSION_NOT_FOUND' was raised, but it was not caught
      anywhere along
     the call hierarchy.
Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not
     adequately responded to, the running ABAP program
      'CL_RSSM_LOADING===============CP' has to be
     terminated.
What can you do?
     Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
     administrator.
Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
     at and manage termination messages, and you can also
     keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_RS_VERSION_NOT_FOUND', was not
     caught in
    procedure "CHANGE_VARIANT" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
     clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    Object   could not be found in version
How to correct the error
If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
    find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
    keywords:
"UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION" "CX_RS_VERSION_NOT_FOUND"
    "CL_RSSM_LOADING===============CP" or "CL_RSSM_LOADING===============CM00G"
    "IF_RSPC_TRANSPORT~KEY_CHANGE"
If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
    notification to SAP, include the following information:
1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
2. Corresponding system log
Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
     Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP
program: The source code of the program
     In the editor, choose "Utilities->More
Utilities->Upload/Download->Download".
4. Details about the conditions under which the error occurred or which
actions and input led to the error.
The exception must either be prevented, caught within proedure
"CHANGE_VARIANT" "(METHOD)", or its possible occurrence must be declared in the
RAISING clause of the procedure.
To prevent the exception, note the following:
Can someone help to me solve both problems???Thanks!!

Hi,
Aks your Basis person to look into the dump in tcode ST22. Also you can check in the SAP notes for error message displayed in the dump. There you find the correction notes.
Mostly this problem is related to Service packs.

Technical Content Activation Failed in BI7

Dear experts,
Basically, I have posted this question in another category but the response is very disappointing. So I though of moving the question to here.

Statistics technical content activation issue with MD process chain in BI7

Hi,
Let me give you history of the issue first.
I had to activate the Statistics in BI7. I followed the SAP Note 965386 and activated the Technical Content.
Faced activation issues in MD process chain, Content Master Data-0TCT_MD_C_FULL_P01. It dint get activated, Followed the SAP note 1065919, which asked me to remove the below process from RSPC and activate it.
Load data- Process Variant Attribute and
Load data- Process Variant Text.
I did the same and it got activated after removing them.
Issue is. Later knew that manually activating the Process chain from Content would have activated those Infopackages aswell.
Now how should I get those processes into the chain and activate? Based on your suggestions, I can let you know what all I have been trying to fix it?
Relying on you for solution.
Thanks
Pavan

Thank You Neethika,
I have this issue solved. I replicated the data sources, activated those infoPackages manually and then added those variants into the process chain manually. So my MD chain now has all the necessary process.
Now i need to schedule them and see if it runs with out any errors. I will keep this thread open till i run it to take your help if i get any errors while running them.
Thanks
Pavan

Activating technical content in BW7.0

Hi,
We are in the process of upgrading BW 3.5 to NW 2004s. We followed OSS note 965386 to activate technical content. We assigned all the required authorization to the user and followed the following path to activate the content:-
SPRO>SAP NW>Business Intelligence>Setting for BI Content>Business Intelligence>BI Admin Cockpit>Activate technical content in SAP NW BI
When we went to SPRO we did not see the last step i.e. Activate technical content in SAP NW BI.
Any help in this regard? Also, why not we can activate the technical content from RSA1.
Regards,
Anil

Its just like installing any other BI content. Just check what are the cubes you would be needing. If you are not sure and want to have latest and greatest, you can stick with the MultiProvider(0BWTC_C10) that is delivered comprising of all the six individual technical content cubes. While installing system would prompt you whether to install the datsources, say yes and provide ur credentials. That would take of activating DS. After installing, replicate the datsources from the source system. You are all set to go.
or alternately run program RSTCC_ACTIVATE_ADMIN_COCKPIT to install all this stuff automatically instead of collecting all the objects in BI content screen.

Variable in technical content

Hi all,
In the TECHNICAL CONTENT of my system I have a variable for the Exchange Rate Type (0RTYPE)called Z_RTYPE. When I run a query that use the currency conversion type this variable pops up in the variable screen, but it is not specifically added to my query.
Because this is not added to my query I cannot see this variable in the "Query Properties", which I need to be able to sort it.
Is there some way to add this variable from the technical content to my query?
Best regards,
TMV

Hi Pank,
For all the Queries/Workbooks for which you want to collect Stats and see them in Reports, you have to activate or mark them/relevant Infoproviders in Datawarehousing Workbench.Tools> BI Statistics Settings.
For the new statistics, you have to determine the objects for which you want to update the statistics and to what level of detail. You call this dialog from the Data Warehousing Workbench. It has changed completely from the previous statistics functionality.
In addition, you can manually assign a priority to the queries, InfoProviders and process chains. This priority is evaluated in the statistics. This can be used to establish a ranking or to exclude objects from the display in a report.
Please search in SAP Help, you will get more stuff.

I have checked old 3.X statistics, i think, its the same issue there aswell.

Hi Srilatha,
I have applied the SAP Note 1088038 and tried loading 0tctprcsvar_text.
When i have checked in PSA, i can see the descreption of the Ipak.
But, if i maintain the master data and see that, the long descreption is blank.

BI 7.0 Technical Content Activation

We have performed the technical upgrade from 3.5 to 7.0 and are in the process of performing the Post Upgrade steps. We are currently updated to level: SAP_BW 7.00 SP15.
One of the Post Upgrade steps referenced in the "How to ... Checklist: Rapid SAP NetWeaver 7.0 BI Technical Upgrade with BI Accelerator Implementation" SAP document references the the activation of BI Technical Content (even if there are no plans to use it). Our problem occurs when we attempt to activate the required Technical Content objects via IMG (TCode SPRO). When the activation reaches the Process Chain activation a couple of the Process Chains reference objects that are not available at our content patch level.
I have researched and understand the workaround discussed in OSS 1134944. My question is more general. Is the activation of the Technical Content absolutley required - even if we have no plans to make use of it initially? If so, can someone please explain why this is the case.

Ramesh,
I understand the purpose and usage of Business Content in BI. As I stated in my thread, the Post Upgrade How To Guide implies that the activation of the Technical Content (a component of BI Business Content) is required in 7.0 - even if there are no plans to use it. Since we are having problems with the activation of the Technical Content my question referred only to its objects. We are trying to understand why (if) this component of the Business Content is actually required as the document implies.

Technical content in BI7...

Hi,
We upgraded to BI7 and now trying to install the Technical content in BI7. I read few forums and im confused.
Right now, we have all 3.x technical content installed, but we are not using them to capture the stats. So we can completely discard them.
I found that we have 2 scenarios in which we can install the Tech content:
1. T-code - RSTCO_ADMIN: When I first logged in to BI system after upgrade, the status in this T-code was 'Not Activated' (RED).When I tried to do it manually again, it still shows the same status and the error message in the app log is:
InfoObject 0TCTUSERNM: You are not authorized to change authorization relevance
Message no. R7B295
Diagnosis
You want to change the authorization relevance for InfoObject 0TCTUSERNM. You do not have the right authorization for making this change.
Procedure
Contact your system administrator. You can find more information in the documentation for authorization object S_RSEC.
The above message is concerned to -TCTUSERNM and we get different messages for diff objects.
I guess we need to have few roles/auth objects added in to my user id to install the Tech content!
2. SPRO
What is the difference between the two.
We are in SP17 and does installing using SPRO effects any of the other objects like 0calyear/0calweek!
We are not on portals, so we dont have to install the Admin Cockpit right!
When we use SPRO-->Activate Technical Content in SAP NetWeaver BI, in the Source system assignment do we need to go for just BWMYSELF are even the R3 systems too!
please suggest.

Hello Ram,
Both paths lead to the same result; You will be taken to the same screen in both events as it is the same program being called.
As for authorization error try adding SAP_BW_BI_ADMINISTRATOR to your roles.
