Selective deletion on info cube taking long time.

We have a cube with line item dimension and partioned on Fiscal year. When we are doing selective deletions on the cube on 0fiscper (removing the old redundant data) it is taking quite long time (approx 10 hours) to do this selective deletions as there is huge data in the E fact table ,Request older than 4 days are compressed in the cube and it has some millions of records in this table.
Is there any way we can improve the performance of this selective deletion? Any improvements suggestions we are on sap BW 3.5 system.

Hi,
The issue is very specific .
I recommend to check if there are defined matching indexes which fit to the where clauses of the delete statements. This will make the access to the record most effient.
All other indexes need to be just deleted for the time-being and re-created after the clean is completed. This will save the time for updating the indexes.
The deletes should be performed in bulks - i.e. many, e.g. 25, 100, more at once. If deletes sqls are send from ABAP to database one by one there is huge overhead in the network traffic time.

Selective Deletion of the Cube contents in Abap Program of the PChain

Dear Experts
I need to selectively delete the contents in Basic Infocube using Process Type - ABAP Program in the Process Chain in BW 3.5
For this I have to give the Variant and Program name in the Process Type - ABAP Program in the Process Chain
The ABAP Program for this purpose can be generated automatically by the system in the the below navigation
info cube> Manage>contents > system menu(in the Top)> Status
but this abap program is changing dynamically every time and hence in the Process chain ABAP Program node is failing with error saying that that program is not available
I have tried the same way in the selective deletin navigation path also in the cube manage
Please let me know how to get the system generated program to use in the Process type-ABAP Program in Process Chain
Thanks for all in advance

Hi KSR,
Try this.. start a selective deletion on the cube. you will get a background job running. Get the job name from SM37.
Now write a ABAP program with the below code.
parameter: p_Job_Name type sysuuid_c.
CALL METHOD cl_rscrmbw_bapi=>exec_rep_in_batch
EXPORTING i_barepid = l_jobnam.
Execute the above program. Pass the job name which you got from SM37.
Create a variant with that job name.
Now schedule this newly created program. This should solve your issue.
Note : The job name might vary from one server to another (Dev / Qual / Prod). So if you are planning to move your process chain from Dev, then pass the Job name (in prod) as the variant in yr Dev system and then transport it.

Selective deletion for particler cube and rebuild of aggrigates in Psystem

Hi Friends,
1.In my manage data target screen i have 8 cubes but i want do selective deletion from 1st cube ..how i can do ..?
Im thinking like...IN DETILS column i will select.one data target and then i will go to contents tap and then selective deletion for paricler requst ID...is correct to do selective deletion for particler data target out of 8 cubes..plz tell me
2.in production ...while doing selective deletion ...aggregates are failed...means status is in red color...
now,how can i create or build or rebuild those aggrgates again...please and my qns...
Thanks in advance

Hi
1. technically Yes its ok to do selective deletion of only 1 cube, incase of delta load you will have to do selective reload to only that cube otherwise data for that perticular selection will get doubled in rest of 7 cubes.
Actually depends on situation in which you plan to do so.
2. its possible to aggreegates get affected due t selective deletion.
Just go to manage->rollup tab of cube and rebuild agreegates.
Hope this helps.

Deletion of Info cube request

Hi Experts,
Currently I am working on BI 7.0.
Here is the scenario, Actually I want a such setting so I can delete the previous Info Cube request while scheduling info package for new request.
Actually in 3.0 we had this functionality in Info package "Automatica loading of similar/ Identical request from the Info cube" where we can select the radio button to delete the previous request from Info Cube.
Do we this type of functiobality in BI 7.0?
Regards
Sujay

Hi Sujay,
Netweaver 7.0 does not support the feature you are talking about, it is possible only in 3.x.
You could however incorporate this step 'Delete Overlapping Request' using a process chain. Thats what I do, I too had an issue on this earlier.

No Selective Deletion on Inventory Cube 0IC_C03 via Calendar Day

Hi,
I need to repair my Inventory Cube 0IC_C03 for a certain date. To do that, I need to perform a Selective Deletion on the Cube and perform a FULL REPAIR REQUEST limited on that day only.
But to my surprise, I could not find a Calendar Day entry in the "DeletionSelection".
Is there a workaround or do I need to switch on anything?
--Jkyle

Hi Roberto,
You are too humble! Everybody knows you are the ONE
(he heh from the MATRIX movie)
Anyway, I dont think Export Datasource would help. As you may know, Inventory Cube 0IC_C03 uses 2LIS_03_BX and 2LIS_03_BF data sources. This CUBE is somehow special.
To cut this problem short, I'll go straight to the point. How could I perform INIT via 2LIS_03_BX and 2LIS_03_BF w/o R/3 downtime at all? The reason I came to this Selective Deletion thing is to patch up the mess the INIT would introduce when there are users around by using a REPAIR FULL REQUEST only for that single day...
I hope you get what I mean...
Thanks!

Is it possible to use same data source for two info cube

Hi,
My Problem is in BW we can not have value of material at storage location level.In R/3 also value is maintained at plant level.
Then we searched and we found out one hot to doc for summarized display of stock values on storage location level.
Problem is that we have gone live in last December and we are using " 0AFMM_C02 " and it contains around 1,81,26,000 records. and according to note we have to use
"0IC_C03".
Both the cube uses same data sources for the data.So, how to get the data for "0IC_C03".
and how to delete the data of existing info cube.And is it possible to delete data selectively from the info cube.
Pls. help.
Regards,
viren.

Hi,
You can't create update rule from PSA.You can create from the infosource or from ODS or from cube to cube or ODS to ODS.
In your scenario, what you can do is create update rules from the ODS to the new cube and then transfer the data from there. Or from the Infosource create rules to the new data target and then upload the full data and then set up the delta.
Third option is to create update rules from the existing cube to the new cube and then load all the data one time. Then you can deactivate the update rules as that was needed only for 1 time data transfer.

How to do a infocube selective deletion in a process chain ?

Hi all,
I encounter a little diffculty : I have a process chain that allow me to load daily R/3 datas into a BW/APO infocube, that works perfectly. The problem is that the volume of datas naturally keeps on growing, so I'd want to create a new step in the process chain, that would allow to make selective deletion in the cube.
For example, after every data loading in the infocube, datas of the cube that are dating of more than x days should be removed. I just can't find a process that allows me to do that, but only"complete deletion of data target contents", or "delete overlapping requests from infocube".
I'm quite sure there's an easy way to do that but.... Anyone go an idea please ?
Many thanks !
Fabrice

Hi Fabrice,
To my knowledge, there is no standard process type in process chian that can do this. You can include a program that can delete the old records. I am sure it is a simple login in it. You can do selective deletion in infocube manually but I wish we have a variant that can be created at this screen and refer in a process type. But at this time, I see only the program as solution.

How to delete the compressed Request ID in the info cube... ?

Hi BW Gurus,
one of the info package will upload the request in to three data targets and failed due to error with duplicate records. I am able to delete the bad request in two data targets and facing problem with one data target due to the request is available in green and got compressed.
The reasons why i am unable to delete the request in that data target is it is already got compressed and rolledup.
I tried with selective deletion based on same request ID i have done that successfully but the request still presents in the data target. I have checked in listcube and found no data for the request id.
now i have one more question like the request has bring down to status not ok in the monitor and done selective deletion will it be a problem on the data missing please advise me if any data missing will occur for the particular data target.
can any one help on this. Thanks in Advance.
Venkat.

Hi Venkat
You have one way to delete the compressed request
But this is possible only if u have the request in PSA
If the request is in PSA, do reverse posting
This will nullify the particular bad request by changing the press sign into - and - sign into + for all the records went in the cube for that particular request

Deleting Request from cube based on Selection Condition

HI All,
I have a scenario where i have three selection condition while i update from ODS to CUBE . I keep getting differnet versions of the file so the latest version should replace the old version , to do this i tired using the option
Delte Request from Info Cube after Update in the Data Tagets tab
And the Radio button Overlapping is checked . ( This is not working )
The three selection conditions in Info Pacake are
Reduest id from ODS : 11111
Cal Month                 : 20072
File Type                   : B
The selecion condition for the second Version in Info Pacake of the same file that should replace the first file in cube is
Reduest id from ODS : 22222 ( The request id is RID in the ODS for second file )
Cal Month                 : 20072
File Type                   : B
so can any one let me know how can i achvie this ........

Hi Abraham,
   You select the variable deletion conditions when you schedule the InfoPackage that is going to load the new data. On the Data Targets tab page in the Automatic Deletion of Similar/Same Requests from InfoCube column, you click on the pushbutton to go to the Deletion of Requests from the InfoCube After Update dialog box.
Here you determine under which conditions existing requests are deleted from the InfoCube:
·        You can include update modes, InfoSources, DataSources, and source systems for requests.
Example
Requests are deleted when the appropriate deletion conditions are met if existing requests and new ones were loaded from the same DataSource.
·        You can determine whether the selections for the new request need to be the same as or more comprehensive than the selections of the request that is to be deleted, or whether the selections for the new request need to completely or partially overlap the selections of the request that is to be deleted.
·        You can specify deletion restrictions according to date. This means that, when the deletion conditions are met, only those requests that were loaded within a specific time period are actually deleted.
Example
If you choose Data for the Request from the Last Seven Days, only those requests are deleted that have been loaded in the last seven days.
·        You can specify situations in which a request is not to be deleted, even if the appropriate deletion conditions are in place.
Example
If, under Exceptions, you choose the Today is the Last Day of a Month, existing requests are not deleted, if the new request is loaded on the last day of a month.
·        Another option for determining deletion conditions is creating a user routine for the InfoPackage and the InfoCube. In this routine you can exclude requests from a deletion process or include additional requests for deletion.
Check conditions again, it will work, if selection and data source is same.
Hope it Helps

How to delete selective data in a cube

Hi all,
Can any one tell me, how to delete selective data in a cube. For example if i want to delete data corresponding particular Matrial Id or particular Customer ID (say C400) ? And even deleting the data based on particular Request numer.?
Sandy.

Hi,
RSMO > Infocube > Manage > contents tab > selective deletion
Then define your selections for deletions (Matrial Id or particular Customer ID (say C400)).
Request based deletions can be done directly from Request tab.
Thanks,

Deleting the latest request from info cube.

Hi All,
In our project, we have data from May 2012 to till date. Data is freezed and there is no change of data till May 2014. And there is change in data for current month only ie) June 2014. So i have pulled the full load from May 2012 to May 2014 and loaded in the Info cube.
I am deleting the current month data and loading only the current month data to Info Cube. So i want to delete the current request in the info cube before loading and load only the current month data.
Can you pls guide me how to achieve this through Process chain. I am unable to identify which process type will suit my requirement.
Thanks.

Hello Vincent,
As mentioned by you, that there is no change in data from May 2012 to May 2014, you can keep the request which contains this data(for Example Req1). If Request2 contains data from May 2012 to June 2014 then you need to delete this request i.e Req2 and load only data for June 2014. Later you can follow below mentioned process.
Now coming to option which you are looking for process type to achieve this via process chain, there is a process variant called "Delete Overlapping Request", which is used to delete data from the target based on certain condition depending requirement.
Hope this resolves your issue. Below document explains steps to achieve the same.
