SAP BPC 7.5 - Loading Directly from r/3.

Hi,
anyone which has experience in loading directly from R/3 into SAP BPC ?
are there any starterkits for this ? Only I can find are IFRS, but there are of course many starterkits which can be purchased from 3rd part.
Pro/Cons using this direcly load process instead of having SAP BW in between as a datawarehouse ?
I would appreciate all input.
Thank you,
Joergen Dalby

Hi,
It is possible to have multiple BW/BI systems for one R3/ECC systems. In order for you to load data into both 3.5 and 7.0 systems, you need to difine BI 7.0 logical system in R3/ECC just like your BW 3.5 logical system in R3/ECC. In R3/ECC, the outbound queue (SMQ1) differentiates the deltas based on the logical system name that you have defined (3.5 and 7.0) in R3/ECC system. So, in RSA7 you will see same delta queue name twice but differentiated by logical system name. So you will not have problems loading deltas. Hope this will shed some light.

SAP BPC 10 NW loading data from Infoprovider (data value issue in BPC)

Hi Experts,
We are on SAP BPC 10 - 801 NW - SP05
We are having an error when loading data from infoprovider, we tested in DEV and QA and have similar behaviour: data values which are stored in infoprovider are loaded into BPC model with no differences.
However after make a transport procedure into PROD environment and then loading data into BPC Model something happens: suppose that 100,00 is a data value stored in a BW infoprovider, after loading data into BPC from this infoprovider, different data value is loaded into BPC. E.G 100,0 is in BW , but 10000,0 is store in BPC
Is there any idea to fix it or check it?
Thanks for your answer

Hi Giovanni,
This case occurs with colombian currency and others.
Compare the table TCURX in DEV, QA and PRD.
There must be an entry for currency COP only in PRD.
Like
CURRKEY CURRDEC
COP 0
Note 1240163 explain this behavior.
If you need the value to be stored in 100,00 format in BPC, you can create a routine to convert this value.

Migration to SAP BPC 7 SP 9

Can I migrate to SAP BPC 7 SP 9 directly from SAP BPC 7 SP 7 ?
May be a silly doubt..
Advance Thanks for the answers..
Regards,
Saravana Prabhu

The only issue with going from SP7 to SP9 is, starting with SP8, they changed the authentication method for the Excel Client so your current clients will not auto-upgrade even if you have that option selected in Server Manager. You will have to manually reinstall the clients to SP9. Going forward, any new SPs will allow for auto-upgrade of the clients once again.
And just for your information, SP10 is the most current Service Pack for BPC 7.0 SP11 will be available May 11th as well.

Opening SAP BPC report on server from Dashboard 4.0

I would like to know if it is possible to open SAP BPC report/excel on server from dashboard. We should have it embeded in dashboard so that if we click on dashboard....then it should take to the underlying BPC report on server.
If it is possible the please share the ideas and process.
Thanks!
Asif AKram

Hi Asif,
We can get BPC data to Dashboard using EPM add in/Extended Analyzer depending on BPC version.But going directly to BPC report from Dashboard is not possible.

BPC - Consolidation - Data Loading - Will BS/PL accounts data ONLY be loaded from ECC?

Dear All,
In BPC, when we load data from ECC for Consolidation, my understanding is that we load only BS and PL accounts' data for/by the entity.
Apart from BS and PL data, will there be any data that will have to be loaded into BPC for consolidation?
The following three financial statements -
-Statement of Cash Flow
-Statement of Changes in Equity
-Statement of Comprehensive Income
are actually derived/calculated from the loaded BS and PL data. This is my understanding. Pls. correct me if I am wrong.
Thank you!
Regards,
Peri

Hi Peri,
Balance sheet, PL and those three financial statements are derived from BS/ PL accounts, however, there should also be "flow" information. Otherwise you won't end up with a correct consolidated cash flow or equity movement. ( or you can prefer to enter flow detail manually)
Second thing is, while getting BS & PL accounts, you will also need trading partner detail, otherwise you won't be able to do the eliminations. (or you can prefer to manually enter trading partner detail for intercompany accounts)
Thirdly, you should also consider other disclosures. (Depending on what standart you are implementing - IFRS, US GAAP, Local Gaap whatever...)
Hope this gives an idea.
Mehmet.

Problem loading Applets from Jar files on 64 bit machine

I am developing an applet (extends Applet but uses swing components) using JDK 1.6 (Though these problems still happen in JDK 1.7) and I am unable to get the applet to load on a 64 bit machine in most cases. The web server(s) are running on localhost and I am connecting on the same machine using a local network ip address (such as 192.168.*.*)
Below are all of my test results. Can someone provide a suggestion for repairing this? The Windows Server machine is a clients computer I access to it via remote desktop but I can't do much with it though I do have administrator rights. The Windows 7 machine is my development platform so I have been able to do extensive testing on it.
This problem is presenting in the following environments when trying to load an applet from JAR files in a HTML document using the Applet or Object tag.
Windows Server 2008 (Intel Chipset)
Tested Browsers:
Internet Explorer 9 (32 bit) - Shows it is blocked by default then simply shows an x when loaded from a web page, same result when loading from local drive.
Windows 7 Home Premium (AMD Chipset)
Tested Browsers:
Firefox 6.0.1 (32 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner, after a few minutes there is finally an error that a class in the jar was not found
Internet Explorer 9 (32 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner, after a few minutes there is finally an error that a class in the jar was not found
Internet Explorer 9 (64 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner and most of the windows desktop manager freezes, keyboard is the only thing that responds so you can alt-tab to another app to regain control of the desktop.
Chrome (32 bit) - Java logo shows with spinner, after a few minutes there is finally an error that a class in the jar was not found
The only way I have been able to get a Java applet to run on a 64 bit machine are the following ways.
Firefox 9 nightly (64 bit) works perfectly! Go Firefox!
Internet Explorer 9 (32 bit) loading directly from drive (c:\...)
Chrome (32 bit) loading directly from drive (c:\...)
Firefox 6.0.1 (32 bit) loading directly from drive (c:\....)
Can someone please help! I've been fighting with this bug for over a week and I can't find anything that will solve it, I have noticed that in some cases if my jar has very little code in it than it will run on the server, but the minute I start adding things to it the jar won't load anymore.

To clarify...
1. You have tried it on 32 bit machine? Exactly which OS?I tested this on Windows Vista Business which is in 32 bit mode and the applets run without any problems
>
2. Your only 64 bit tests have involved 2008/Win7?
If so then I would suspect something with windows not java. Probably permissions.
The web server(s) are running on localhost and I am connecting on the same machine using a local network ip address (such as 192.168.*.*)
Yes, I haven't tried running the jars on other operating systems.
>
I don't understand that. If you are running on localhost then you should connect to localhost. If running on an IP then you should connect to that. Perhaps you meant that you have tested using both of those?I'm testing using the lan ip address but I'm connecting from the same machine. I've tried localhost and that didn't work so I tried lan ip since that will likely have a different java security context than localhost. At first I was blaming the IIS server but I downloaded the jar directly and using HTTP fox was able to verify that the jar is being sent with the correct mime-type and that the server can upload the jar file without a problem. This leaves me to believe the problem is with Java.

IE 11: Javascript files are not loaded correctly from cache?

Since installing Windows 8.1, I have been experiencing issues with script loading in IE 11: When the server responds with "304 Not Modified" in response to a script request, bad things happen. Specifically, I encounter script errors that would
normally be caused by a missing script reference or having references in the wrong order (e.g. "Unable to get property 'foo' of undefined or null reference"). Doing a force-refresh (i.e. Ctrl+F5) corrects the issue until the next page load.
Based on what I see in the IE 11 developer tools, it looks like the scripts are loaded correctly. I can open them in the Debugger view and the content appears to be correct. Perhaps IE is just not loading them in the correct order in this scenario?
I noticed this problem myself and then someone else (who has also recently installed Windows 8.1) informed me that it appears he is experiencing exactly the same issue on a different site.

I'm fairly certain this issue represents a bug in IE 11. The same problem(s) do not occur in IE 9 or IE 10. The same problems occur on unrelated websites accessed from separate machines. Doing a force-refresh (Ctrl+F5) always fixes the issue.
I took your advice about opening the console to look for error messages during page load. When loading normally (i.e. not doing a force-refresh), the console shows the following:
HTML1300: Navigation occurred.
File: TimeEntry
DOM7011: The code on this page disabled back and forward caching. For more information, see: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=291337
File: Dashboard
SCRIPT70: Permission denied
File: modernizr-2.5.3.js, Line: 468, Column: 9
SCRIPT70: Permission denied
File: jquery-ui-1.10.0.js, Line: 252, Column: 1
SCRIPT70: Permission denied
File: knockout-2.2.1.js, Line: 48, Column: 5
SCRIPT5007: Unable to get property 'extend' of undefined or null reference
File: knockout.validation.js, Line: 30, Column: 5
When loading the page via a force-refresh, only the 'Navigation occurred.' message is displayed. It does not make sense that IE would apply a more restrictive security policy to scripts loaded from cache vs. scripts loaded directly from their original location,
yet that appears to be what is happening.
Post questions about html, css and scripting for website development to the IE Web Development forum.....WITH A LINK TO YOUR WEBSITE OR A MASHUP THAT SHOWS THE ISSUE...
looks like you have a sandboxed iframe on your page.
the first step in troubleshooting IE issues is to test in noAddons mode.

Loading Variable from a file in BI 7.0 queries

Hi All,
When we run BW 3.x queries through RRMX, we get option to load the variables values via import from file means loading the variables values from a file. Do we have this option available in case of 7.0 queries also as 7.0 queries directly run on portal.
I know via RSRT, i have that option available for 7.0 queries as well.
Thanks in advance.
Sumita.

Hi,
In 7.0 it is not possible to load directly from a flat file when you run the query in the portal. However, I don't think it was an option in 3.x either. In het analyzer, both 3.x and 7.0 have that option, only the copy paste functionallity is gone in 7.0, you have to use a flatfile now. Also, in 7.0 portal you can add indivual values for a variable sperated by a ; sign. So you can use excel to create a ; seperated csv file and copy and paste from that.
Kind regards,
Alex

My iPad music seems to be corrupt. Can I delete everything including the back up so I can re-load afresh from my iTunes library

My iPad music seems to be corrupt. Can I delete everything including the back up so I can re-load afresh from my iTunes library
In my iTunes library on my Macbook Air everything is OK but whenever I syncronise after an update a back up is made and then re-loaded.
Can I delete this back up somehow and load direct from my iTunes Library ?

Depending upon what problem that you are having with the Music app, have you tried closing the Music app via the iPad's taskbar and seeing if that helps ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the Music app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Music app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't help then you can delete your music from your iPad and re-sync it back to it. A device's backup doesn't contain the contents of the Music and Videos apps, when you do a restore it gets those from your computer's iTunes library and not from within the actual backup, so deleting the backup shouldn't make any difference to that - if you want to delete the iPad's backup from your Mac then go into iTunes > Preferences (command-comma), and on the Devices tab select the iPad backup and click the 'Delete Backup' button.

SAP BPC or OutlookSoft Books

Hi Gurus,
I am searching for any books for SAP BPC 5.1 or OutlookSoft from which I can get a good idea of where does SAP BPC fit in an enterprise and how to work on it. Unfortunately I couldnt find any books to purchase. Please list any good books for SAP BPC or OutlookSoft I am really eager to gothrough this.
Thanks to everyone in advance !!

Along with the link that Umesh provided, you can find further information under the tabs above, (i.e., downloads, elearning, ...). Other than the wealth of information provided under this network you will need to enroll in SAP-BPC training ($$$).
Please don't take the following personally, you have some very good and valid questions.
I have seen the mess created by people, (some very smart) trying to implement BPC without any real training or experience. I don't recommend it!
I see so many people trying to implement BPC and the questions they post on this forum only demonstrates the individuals lack of knowledge of BPC to the whole world. Don't forget, this is a public forum and many companies/clients/users read the posts to this forum.
This is a great forum for the exchange of information and ideals by people that have anywhere from fundamental to high level expertise with the BPC; there is information posted here you will not find elsewhere. I know some of the people that use to monitor and respond to questions, (some great stuff) now refuse to be bothered because of the people seeking to use this forum for training/education.
Please excuse my venting!
Thanks!

SAP BPC 7.5: Master Data and Hierachiy Load from InfoObject

Hallo Forum Participants,
I am going to load Master Data from a "Clarity" Reporting Tool in BW to SAP BPC 7.5 via Process Chains (/CPMB/IMPORT_IOBJ_MASTER, /CPMB/IMPORT_IOBJ_HIER) delivered from SAP.
These Process Chains load the Master Data and Hierarchies from an InfoObject. To find out more about Ticking of BPC I have performed a following test. So, on BPC Admin Interface I have duplicated the Dimension u201CAu201D and called it as Dimension u201CBu201D (in BW site InfoObject u201CAu201D and u201CBu201D). In the Member Sheet of Dimension u201CBu201D I have implemented the several changes und tried to load Master Data from BW namely from infoObject u201CBu201D into BPC Dimension u201CAu201D. Therefor I created a transformation file and mapped one for one IDu2019s. The data Manager started these chains, but resulted nothing (Status: red X).
What are the features of BPC InfoObjects in Comparision with regular InfoObject?
How can I load Hierarchies into InfoObject?
What else I must take into account?
Why does not work this simple test?
Regards.
Alisher
Edited by: Alisher Babaev on Jan 6, 2012 1:59 PM

Hallo pkrishna,
so it is successed with master data load, but without hierachiies.
My Master Data Properties on Dimension Sheet are:
-ID
-EVDESCRIPTION
-PARENTH1
-CURRENCY
I have mapped as below:
ID=ID
CURRENCY=/CPMB/CURR
/CPMB/CURR- my technical id in BW.
In the Note you advised transformation file has been mapped like below:
-NODENAME=NODENAME
-HIER_NAME=HIER_NAME
-PARENT=PARENT
-ORDER=ORDER
After executing of package i get whether rejected list or log file. No data can be retirieved from InfoObject.
Have you any Idea?
regards

Reports from SAP BPC NW 7.5

Hi All,
Our Landscape:
SAP ECC EhP1
SAP BW 7.10
SAP BOBJ XI 3.1 (WebI/Crystal/Xcelsius)
SAP BPC NW 7.5
We are new to BPC. We would like to know where do we need to develope the reports on BPC data. Can some one help me on this. If some one have any best practices or options that where we can develope the reports, pls let me know
Like we can do reporting directly on BPC with only couple of reports from BW/BOBJ or all reports from BW/BOBJ.
Here we are planning to use BW as warehouse solution and BOBJ tools for reporitng on BW data.
Thanks,
Bala

Hi Bala,
BPC is a planning & a reporting tool. It can also be used for Consolidation. As mentioned in the previous reply, the data in BW has to be made available in BPC Application (cube) to be able to report it out.
You might need to create transformation files and conversions files between your BW cubes and the BPC cubes to realise the data transfer to BPC application (cube). Note, BPC cubes are automatically generated when you create an application from the BPC front end.
Please refer to some good introductory blogs available on SDN to get to know the BPC terminology and BW terms. Then BPC has an reporting tool in itself. You can create reporting using EVDRE for example which displays the data landed in BPC cubes. This typically will have actual data (loaded from BW), plan data (planned through Input Schedules or flat file data loads).
Hope this give some brief idea.
Thanks

Data (Master Data Changes and Transaction Data) from SAP BW to SAP BPC 5.1

Hi guys
I have seen posts on this forum describing data transfers from SAP R/3 to SAP BPC. I assume the procedure for data transfers from SAP BW to SAP BPC 5.1 should be the same i.e. using SSIS packages.
However I have some unique requirements -
1. DATA AT DIFFERENT AGGREGATED LEVELS - I need data from SAP BW at different levels - Some data comes at Product level while other at Customer level and some at Project Level. The current procedure takes BW queries output in excel sheets (6 files) and then use the data manager package to load the data in SAP BPC 5.1 using appropriate transformation and conversion files. This procedure is highly manual and I am looking at using SSIS package to do this. However, because of having data at different levels, it becomes a little tricky. How can we achieve this using SSIS?
2. UPDATING MASTER DATA - I need to update the master data (dimension members) in SAP BPC 5.1 at the start of every month. The current procedure compares (in MS ACCESS) the data from the queries mentioned in 1 to the dimension members in SAP BPC 5.1 and spits a file with the new entries which needs to be manually updated in the appropriate dimensions using Admin Console. I am looking at automating this task. I cannot just replace all the contents of a dimension with the members coming from SAP BW since the dimension members contains some dummy members which are used for planning.
3. HIERARCHY CHANGES - What is the best way to capture the hierarchy changes in SAP BW into SAP BPC 5.1?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Ameya Kulkarni

Hi Ameya,
how did you solve the described problems? Can you give some hints about uploading master data and updating the hierarchy?

Best practice to Load FX rates to Rate Application in SAP BPC 7.5 NW

Hi,
What is the best practice/approach to load FX rates to Rate Application in SAP BPC 7.5 NW? Is it from ECC or BW?
Thanks,
Rushi

I have seen both cases.
1) Rates coming as a flat file from external system, treasury department, and ECC and BPC both loads in to respective systems in batch.
2) ECC pushes rate info to BW and data in turn get pushed to BPC along with other scheduled process chains.
How are rates entering your ECC?
