Scheduling Info packages

Hello Guru's,
Please help me in one issue in the scheduling the infopackages with variables,
My requirement is actually there are actual 17 companies, so the while scheduing the infopackage they want a selection screen for entering the values for data selection.
Thanks in Advance
Kumar

Hello Vallese,
Thanks for the prompt reply, actually we were having in the same way as u said, 17 diffrent info packages for 17 diffrent companies, but the user insisting that he wants a single infopackage, and while scheduling that, he wants a Pop-up-screen so that he can select the company fisical year..etc, so he is asking for variables, please let me know how to handle it,
Thanks Once again,
Kumar

Problem while scheduling info package using HR datasource.

hi experts,
while scheduling the info package i am getting the following error.
Delete init. request
REQU_D340A67OSEQ9A6Q2B20X9SIOM before running
init. again with same selection
I think by deleting the setup it will work...
am i right or is there any other solution for this problem..
please reply soon.
its too urgent.
thanks n regards.

Hi,
You are correct there is no setup table concept in HR extractors.
But there is a cache. Usually HR extractions will be full load. But it also supports delta. There is no setup table concept in HR.Once you perform your init (with or without Data transfer your delta path is set and delta will follow else can go for Full loads alone. It will extract data from the relevant tables like generic extractors. The data will be filtered based on the selection parameters.
Except for payroll and time management rest all sub-functional areas supports only full load.
In case of full loads, old data needs to be deleted to avoid duplicated records in the target.
Auditing Information Technical name: 0HR_PY_PP_1
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/c7/532d7835db9a41b744aea58ed699ed/frameset.htm
Delta Update
This DataSource supports delta updates. The source system fills table HRMS_BIW_PPDELTA with the date and time of the first data transfer (initialization) and the date and time of all subsequent data transfers. This information enables the system to perform a delta transfer. It only selects posting runs with the above statuses whose last changed on date is after the date in table HRMS_BIW_PPDELTA.
If you use DataSources 0HR_PY_PP_2 (Posting Documents) and 0HR_PY_PP_1 (Auditing Information), you must transfer data to BW from both DataSources using the same selection criteria.

HR extraction:
The HR module enables customers to effectively manage information about the people in their organization, and to integrate that information with other SAP modules and external systems
HR broadly has the following modules:
PA (Personnel Administration) and Organization Management
Personnel Development
Payroll Accounting
Time Management
Compensation
Benefits
Training and Events
The Personnel Administration (PA) sub module helps employers to track employee master data, work schedules, salary and benefits information. Personnel Development (PD) functionality focuses on employees' skills, qualifications and career plans. Finally, the Time Evaluation and Payroll sub modules process attendance and absences, gross salary and tax calculations, and payments to employees and third-party vendors
HR delivers a rich set of business content objects that covers all HR sub-functional areas.
How the data extraction happens:
Before getting into how the data gets populated into HR info cube
Let's understand the term info type
"An info type is a collection of logical and/or business-related characteristics of an object or person"
Here the data will be extracted from an info type (PA, PD, time management etc) and for few other applications it is from the cluster tables (Payroll, compensation etc.)
HR is basically master data centric because it is always related to people related Info Objects, such as Employee, Person. In most of the cases HR master data is defined as Time Dependent to enable historical evaluation. HR R/3 system records a specific period of validity for each Info type.
Procedure to extract the HR data:
Activate Data Sources in the Source system (R/3)
Replicate Data Sources in BW system:
Activate business contents in BW.
Populate HR cubes with data by scheduling info packages.
Note: Master Data should be loaded first
Except for payroll and time management rest all sub-functional areas supports only full load.
In case of full loads, old data needs to be deleted to avoid duplicated records in the target.

Schedule Info package in background

Hi,
When I schedule my info package in background mode, it should schedule the job with my BW back ground user .
BW user is the back ground user in mysystem. But my Process Overview shows that it is scheduled as Dialogue there by utiling my dialogue processers.
Kindly let me know the reason behind it.
Regards,
Ahmed

Ok, for bi7, this is the way it works...
when you run an IP in background it will execute a dialog process on the BW side. this process is needed to execute (send the outbound messages) the background job on the R/3 part (with the BW remote user)... in prior releases a background job was also running on the BW side as long as the R/3 load was running, but with the bi7 adaptations it takes less place on bw side, hence performance has improved...

Error in Scheduling INIT Info package

Hi All,
We have a standard extractor in CRM which we have replicated to our BW system. We also had transfer rules ready as a part of the BI content, but were present as 3.x data flows. So, we migrated the 3.x data flow to 7 successfully and finally created an INIT info package since the data source was meant for delta extraction. Now, when i schedule my INIT info package, i get an error saying that "Job was terminated in the source system". I also traced this issue in the source system and i found that there was a run time error which says
Runtime error - OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED_NO
"An exception occurred that is explained in detail below. The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not caught in procedure "CRM_BW_CMG_LINKS_INIT" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the CLEAR statement."
Can anybody help me out with this? What shud i do now?

Hi Sandeep,
Thanks for the useful pointer. Can u throw some more light on this? What exactly does it mean when you say, "Replication of the connection object"? Does it refer to the replication of the Data source or is it something else?

Scheduling from info package

Hi,
I want to scheule a load at later time today from the infopackage.I created one info package with background job,in the scheduling options I have given date and time.I would like to confirm whether it works?
Could some one clarify this?
Thanks
Manish

After specifying the scheduling option, did you execute(pressed 'start') it, or just saved it?
If you pressed 'start', it will run it at the specified time. To check this, you can see a job in 'released' status with that start time, you can see that in SM37.

It seems l_rfclogsys and p_logsys differs... not sure why this situation, may be the way system connection (source) is defined.

How to Schedule the info package groups?

Hi,
To scheudle the info package group is it enough to shcedule at infopackage group level or do I need to schedule each info pcakages?

Hi ,
You can execute at Group level.
Plz find teh steps for creation and sheduling of IP Group,
1. GO to Adminsitrator workbench RSA1 > Infosources
2. Create your infopackage do not select option but select data load
immediately get out of infopackage prior to going to step 3
3. Click on icon show infopackage groups
(icons are update tree, monitor, display node log, search in subtree,
legend, and show infopackage groups)
4. This will create another window. Now you can create your infopackage
groups. Right Click on folder (infopackage group)
enter long description name, go back to your infopackage and pull it
to the infopackage group
(it's a drag and drop to long description name you just created and
remember it will be on the bottom of the list most likely)
5. Click on infopackage group and its time to select which on to run
first and time your going to schedule it.
INFOPACKAGE
a. Execute package should have a check mark without it itwon't run.
b. Start Sequence (depends on which one you want to run
first for my example its) 1
c. Selection exists (is created when you pull youinfopackage to group)
d. Maintain infopackage is a pencil and will take you therefrom hereInfopackage is your name from the infopackage you pulledover
e. Data type (is created when you pull your infopackage togroup)
Check whether contents was updated without errors beforeyou start next request
(I highly recommend you check this because if will stopyour process if a infopackage fails)
f. Delay until the start of the next request (not necessaryto check)
g. Technical name
Schedule
Selection Options: Immediate (now)Date time (preselected time) if youcheck period and period valueshere it can be run eachday or specific dayAfter job

Steps to create Info Packages in BI 7.0

Please Give Steps top create new Info packages in BI7.0

Hi,
Steps to create Generic data source:
If you want to extract the data from MM table in BI Please follow the below steps.
1) Create a view on that table By going in to se11( Do this for future purpose, no need of joining conditon as of now why because view is containing only one table at this juncture)
2) Go to RSO2, create generic data source based on view and designate this datasource under mm application component, it helps to replicate easily from the source system in BI side.
3) While Creating datasource make sure that field selections and selection criteria for fields.
4)Assign it to a package(specified by the team) for transportation purpose. Make sure the dependencies also will be going through request other wise the request may fail.
5) Replicate the generic datasource in BI System(by going in to the mm appln comp under r/3 source system)
6) After replication do create info package, transformations and dtp also.
7) Trigger the Info package and then DTP.
now data will be there in your data target in BI system
Steps to create standard data source
1> Go to RSA5 ,Select what data source u want , CLICK Transferstructure.
2> After dooing this u can see the structure in RSA6 , if u want to do any customozation by adding extra fields u can do it her , if not no need.
3> go to RSA3 and check if the structure is pulling data or not .
BW SIDE
4> Select Source system ->Replicate data source
5> create Transfer rules , update rules and cube and u are done
6> u can create a infopackage and schedule ur data load into the cube or ods.
Hope this helps you

Info Package-'Repair Full Request'

Hello,
In the info package o the scheduler menu there is an option 'Repair full request' what is this for.Could you please give when i can use this option
Thanks

Hello
How r u ?
very important regarding deltas.
Regarding updating data in the enhanced fields
Data can be loaded to a data target even if the data target already contains data from an init load or delta for this DataSource/ source system combination and has overlapping selection criteria.
This option is very useful when doing a full load to an ODS. If you don't mark a full load as Repair when loading to an ODS, you will not be able to do an Init for it.

ABAP routing in info package

Hi All,
I have a requirement where about 1000 document numbers are to be used in the info package. I can wite an abap routine at the info package. Since there are many documents numbers, can I create an info object and load the numbers in it and use a simple select on the info object and compare it with the document no inside the abap routine. Though I have the idea I have not done anything like this before. Does anyone know how I can use l_t_range internal table with many individual document numbers?
Example code will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex.

If you already have the document numbers, I guess it is easier to load it from a text file instead of creating an Infoobj.

Any log for Info Package

Dear Experts,
I have a info package which has been included in the process chain. It scheduled everyday.
Now somebody changed some settings in InfoPackage like data selection and processing tabs.How do i know that who has changed the settings.
If i look at the info package it says ALEREMORE becoz everytime its been triggered by process chain.That means you have last change name only.
If i want to find out last one weeks changes, HOW DO I ?
Please help me.
Rgds,
Sin

Dear Aadil,
I have checked in the given table, Unfortunately there was only one record there which was done by ALEREMOTE(i.e Today's log). Since i told you that i need a log for entire last week.
That means rsldpio table maintaining last changed time only.but i need complete log list for the last one week.
Please help me
