SAP BPC 7.5 (MS) - The members are locked.

Problem occured when the processing time to clear down one TIME period of data took 3 hours on Fri pm.
On Monday morning, I executed a Run Package > Clear > on the same segment. It ran for 1hr and 10 minutes and I escalated to our Helpdesk for a server reboot (this has worked in the past). The server was rebooted before I executed an "Abort" on the clear function.
When the server was backup, I "aborted" the clear.
Subsequent attempts are CLEAR resulted in the message "The current members are locked::(N'ACTUAL'<N'2011.JAN")(ACTUAL,2011.JAN).
Things I had tried in order:
1) send data to one intersection of ACTUAL, 2011.JAN via EVDRE- failed - The current members are locked.
2) Full Optimize on application. then repeated (1). Same results.
3) Full Process on dimensions Category (ACTUAL) and Time (2011.JAN). Process Application. Repeated (1). Same results.
4) Tried sending data to ACTUAL 2011.FEB - success.
5) Tried copying data from ACTUAL 2011.JAN to other periods - success.
6) Tried to move ACTUAL 2011.JAN data - failed. The current members are locked.
Work status is not activate in our instance.
Thank you.

Hi Connie,
You will need your IT help desk to look at the database table called
lck<YourAppName>
in your AppSet database.
You will need to clear/delete all the records appearing in that above table.
Once that is done you should be good to go.
Thanks,
John

1. Whenever I try getting into the SAP BPC administration I get the following error. But when I click OK it gets me to the administration screen but after that Hell breaks loose
    Error on uncompressing file: Error : ActiveX component can't create object.
2. Create dimensions -
    Split File Error
3. Delete dimensions -
   OLAPConnect Error - The Database with ID = 'ApShell' doesn't exist in the collection
4. BPC for Excel (I am logging in as a system admin)
    The dimension information file cannot be created. There may be a network or security issue.
    Error Message: InitCatalog:Either the user does not have access to the ApShell database, or the database does not exist.
I am sure I will get a lot of errors once I start playing with the configuration.
Please comment.

Hi Ameya Kulkarni,
I sorry I wrong type something,
1. Whenever I try getting into the SAP BPC administration I get the following error. But when I click OK it gets me to the administration screen but after that Hell breaks loose
Error on uncompressing file: Error : ActiveX component can't create object.

You should do this step such as:
1. copy file "XceedZip.dll" into the directory SAP BPC
2. register that file into the register window using sintaks: "regsvr32"
3. If the successfully message box appears, You should open the MS.Excel or SAP BPC administration
2. Create dimensions -
Split File Error
==>
You should check the database your application in MS.SQL first please.Perhaps, It's does not open and retrieve data.
3. Delete dimensions -

My organization is jumpy about revelaing "private" information (in ths case e-mail addresses) "publically." Is there a way to create a group so that the e-mais of individual members are not listed (e.g., "undisclosed recipients""

Go to the Mail Menubar/Mail/Preferences/Composing/Addressing: Uncheck: When sending to a group, show all member addresses.

When I try to look at my groups it shows the members but says page not found, can anyone help please?

I dont understand the answer
'''''""The problem can be solved by opening FF and choosing Tools...Add On's...select the SEARCH addon and choose UNINSTALL...restart FF browser when asked, then reload Mobsters. This worked for me.

The new update of Muse allows you to use the Webforms widget with a non Business Catalyst host as well.

Using dbca to create a db and all the users are locked and expired

I create a template using dbca on 10gR2 with schema and data and when I use that to build a clone on another machine the users passwords are all locked and expired. I am doing this in silent mode from the command line and I am looking for a flag that produces the unlock users passwords feature which seems to be there if you manually run dbca from the GUI.

This is a unix script I use to unlock accouts. I should notice this script is used for educational pourposes, in a production database it is not a good practice to leave demo accounts unlocked and overall with login=password.

I have an ipad that only has wifi and I am unable to connect because all the networks are locked for access. Is there anything that I can attached to my ipad that will make it possible for me to access the internet

I need help. Just purchased an ipad with wifi service only. Is there anything that I can get that will allow me to access the internet. I keep getting network connections that have a lock which makes it unable to log on. Picking up numerous with sites with the lock. Help did I make a mistake in getting this ipad. If so, can I trade it in for one that is more network friendly.

If you expect to use a WiFi only iPad it needs a wireless network. It is customary to have your own versus using someone else's.
Nothing is more network friendly than an iPad.
You couldn't possibly have expected to sponge off a service someone else is paying for?

The arrows for my type tool controlling the size are locked out.

This occurred all of a sudden. How can I fix this? I can work around it, but would like to know why this happened and if it can be fixed.

It's anyone's guess why it happened, seeing as you didn't provide any details as to ID version, OS, etc.
If there's a fix, it's likely you'll eventually hit it via the usual sequence; replace preferences, reboot, re-install...

Error on the SAP BPC patches

Dear SAP Support,
I used the SAP BPC 5.1 SP 3 and Ms.SQL Server 2005 SP 2 in my dev environment , I have upgrade it to be SP 11 and Ms.SQL Server 2005 SP3. SAP BPC upgrade for server, Administration, and Client(office) ran perfectly and based on the SAP BPC documentation, but I really confuse when I log in the SAP BPC Administration Console, appears the error window as following:
Public member 'SetMemberSheetVer' on type 'FormMain' not found
How to solve it please ? Please expert could help me.
Best Regards,

Hi,
When you process dimension for the first time, a message window will pop up asking to select the version, 2003 or earlier, or 2007. Once this option has been selected. It creates an entry in the table tblDefaults and cannot be changed later.
If you have selected 2003 or earlier, then the dimensions will be saved with .xls extension. In this case, all the excel versions (including 2007) can open the dimension sheets.
If you have selected 2007, the dimensions will be saved with .xlsx extension. In this case, the dimension sheets can be opened only if your system has 2007. If any system has 2003 or earlier version, then they will not be able to open the dimension sheets.
In this case, you need to go to the table and explicitly mention the version in MEMBERSHEET_VERSION.
Hope this helps you.

Info Of SAP BPC 7.5 NW

Dear Expert,
I'm a newbie on SAP BPC 7.5 NW and had a knowledge of SAP BPC 7M before. I found several articles and information about BPC 7.0 NW and never ever touch in BPC NW system, I would like to make sure and maybe more tips from experts. My questions are:
1. BPC 7M have a dimension in excel format for an user enter members, BPC 7.5NW have same format with BPC 7M ? If not, could I know how an user enter members please ?
2. I read some articles BPC 7NW for load data for reports, the first step we must to do that create BPC cube which is data from BW cube. Is it correct or maybe BPC 7.5NW have new features ?
3. Regarding point no 2, Is it correct that data from SAP ECC must be in BW cube first and then create BPC cube for SAP BPC ?
Thanks in advance for your help and information. I really appreciate your help.
Kind Regards,

Hi,
In the NW version also, the members are maintained in the same way in the MS platform.
You can load transaction data from a flat file or from a BI cube or from a file in the application server.
The NW and the MS platforms are very similar with a very few differences.
Please go through the below link from help.sap for further details.

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?

SAP BPC 7.5 SP 7 - Master Data Load Detected duplicate member ID

Hi Gurus I have a requirement.
I am loading the Master data for Cost Center - initially while loading master data i didnot load hierarchy. Now I started to load the Master data with Hierarchy but when ever I tried vailidate the transformation file then it is throwing the "Detected Duplicate member "
Let me show you the transformation - what I wrote there
*OPTIONS
FORMAT = DELIMITED
HEADER = YES
DELIMITER = TAB
*MAPPING
ID=ID
*CONVERSION
ID=Master_Data_Conversion.xls
Conversion Master_Data_Conversion.xls has the following code this is to remove the spaces EXTERNALINTERNAL
*js:%external%.toString().replace(/\s+/g,"")
Let me show you how I have selected the Data type - Master Data /text from NW BW Infoobject
Selection of infoobject - 0costcenter
Format - External Format
Set Selection - first Tab - Attribute I only wante the Control Area which is 1000 so - Control Area = 1000
2nd Tab - Hierarchy - Import Text node - yes Hierarchy node - xxxxxxx Version - Empty Member ID - first member Level - Blank
3rd Tab Language - English
4th Tab Attribute list - Controling Area only is selected
Note: Let me tell you that when I am loading the Master data with out Hierarchy inthe Set Selection the loading is succesful but when I am doing it with the Hierarchy as mentioned in the 2nd Tab I am getting the error as following.
Master data (dealt by table level) has errors
Detected duplicate member ID '201100'
Also, the Master data for Cost Center in the BW is a time dependent so it is having Valid to and Valid from fields which is not there to be delt in the BPC.
Please Help

@Vinay let me tell you when the BW is having the master data which is time dependent then it will have this Duplicate member as we will have duplicate cost center names which are compounded with the Time, so BW will not show an error as there is compounding but BPC do not have that feature.
The was raised with SAP and they resolved this issue.
SAP Note 1641529 - Loading Master Data gets duplicate error in special case
When running Data Manager Package 'Loading Master Data from BW
InfoObjects', 'Duplicate Members are found' error may be reported in below
case:
o In the source BW InfoObjects, there are master data that have
different lengths, and their IDs are all numeric characters. And
o If the members are sorted by their lengths first and then IDs gets
a different order compared with the one if they are sorted directly
by their IDs. Take member '122' and '1101' for instance. In BW,
they are sorted as [122, 1102]; if they are sorted directly by the
IDs, the order is [1102, 122]. And
o when running the package, the members are in both 'Attribute' and
'Hierarchy' selection, and the option Filter members by Attributes
or Hierarchies is used. And
o Select 'External Format' when running the package.
Other terms
DM, Loading Master Data from BW, Duplicate Members
Reason and Prerequisites
It's a program error.
Solution
Please apply this note or upgrade to SP11.
I hope this will help you else let me know the entire requirements so that I can provide some kind of assistance.
Do check how the master data in ur BW is then how the hierarchy nodes and costcenter nodes are there?
Good Luck

Installing SAP BPC 7.0 FOR MICROSOFT on VM (60 GB) Disk Space- Test

All,
We are on SAP BPC 5.0 Sp10 and we are planning to upgrade SAP BPC 7.0 Microsoft in next year. We have one VM server which has 60 GB Disk. We are wondering that can we install SAP BPC 7.0 on it.
As per SAP installation guide , it is clearly mentioned that we should have 200GB Space to install it. Installation guide talks about real time system since we are building up a test system for a small team which consists of only 6 people.
Any body have installed SAP BPC 7.0 Microsoft this way or Can any body verify it will installed and work successfully ?
Also share, what is the minimum disk space requirement to install SAP BPC 7.0 Microsoft.
Thanks,
Saquib Khan

SAquib,
Not sure where you are getting the 200 gig requirements, but on the Microsoft install guide, it states less than that. See section 3 of the install guide (check on your server requirements). I have attached the link for your convenience.
https://websmp203.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000552952009E/SAP_BPC_70_SP04_M_Install.pdf
As for minimum, I am not sure any qualified installer will quote you a number without going through all of the requirements.. Typically, they would assess the requirements and then come up with a "recommended" space amount and number of servers. This would factor into number of users, number of applications/appsets, data volume, page caching, planning or consolidations (or both), etc.
After sitting through a few 7.0 Microsoft installations, I think 60 gigs VM should be more than sufficient to be installed for "testing" purpose. As stated above, some folks have been use single server 20 gig vm partition for their "sandbox". Keep in mind that the performance will be a little bit slower than install on actual server so any bench mark that you're trying to assess may be a little bit off. In addition, when upgrading from 5.1 to 7.0M make sure to add the property "ISBEGINNING" with value of 10 to the Time Dimension.
As for deciding whether to go with NW or MS, I think the deciding factor would be data volume, and number dimensions that you would need to maintain on your appset, and desire to have integration with SAP components.
