Setting an ODS Update Type

I need to create a new ODS that allows a 'D' recordmode to come through.
At the moment, whenever a 'D' recordmode is loaded via a delta in to an existing ODS, the 'D' recordmode changes to an 'R'.
How can you set the new ODS up to receive the 'D' recordmode and not convert it to an 'R'?

If you use 'R', then the key will be removed from the active table of the ODS, and the change log will result in a reversal of what was there to be sent to future targets (like cubes). To get they keys out of the cube, you could either compress the requests in the cube (removing zeros) or do a selective deletion.
If you use 'D', then the key will be removed from the ODS, but nothing will be noted in the change log. If the ODS is the only place the key exists, then that might be fine.
Once the key no longer exists in any InfoProviders, you can remove the data from the InfoObject.

Cube and ODS update types

Hi all. Please tell me in brief about update types for ODS and InfoCube. I know there is something Addition,No update,overwrite. But I do not know how they work.
regards
rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
No Update means - no data is updated into the target (Cube or ODS).
Overwite - Only for ODS, not possible for Cube. this iwll overwrite the exisiting enrty in the ODS with the new values.
Aditive - The records would be summed up ... Cube can only work either in Additive or No Update mode.
Hope this helps.

UPDATE TYPE IN ODS...

Dear all experts,
I know update types available for ODS are.. addition, Minimum, Maximum, and Overwrite.
Can anybody please tell, where do we do this setting, for update type in ODS.
As per my knowledge, for Cube, we are having updation for key figures, from that respective, key figure will get updated.
Your help will be rewarded, surely.
Waiting

Vinay.

Hi Vinay,
Creating update rules: Right click on ODS -> create UR.
Select the Infosource Radio Button (u can use datatargets also). In the next screen keep the cursor on any datafield and click on Details button just above that table. there u can specify which update type u want.

Addition and Overwrite update types for ODS

Hello BW Experts ,
I have an issue.
For a particular Order and Cost element on R/3 side I have Four cost Figures .
When I do full upload from the related standard data source to ODS with update type Overwritten I am getting only the last cost figure of the same order and Cost elemet.
I am loadind data from this ODS to infocube further.
Now the problem is I want the sum of all the cost figures for the same order and same cost element.
But as the last cost figure is overwritten in ODS I am not getting the correct sum.
So i have made changes to the update type from Overwrite to Addition.
Now I am getting the addition of all cost figures correctly .
Now I am doubtful that If I add further data to ODS by full upload then all cost figures will get doubled.
Please explain me what to do in such a case.
Thanks in Advance,
Amol .

Hello Amol,
check if the datasource supports delta!! you can see it in the rsa6 datasource display. check for the delta checkbox. also from the roosource table this can be found out.
if yes, shift to init-delta loads from full loads.
only the init may take some time but the deltas on daily basis should not take much time.
also one more thing to add to the earlier responses is you can automate the deletion of similar request in infopakcage setting so that u need not manually delete the full upload request daily( if u are working on full uploads on daily basis).
hope it helps..

ODS 2 IC can't change update type

Hi,
I need to load data from a ODS to a InfoCube, in the IC i defined a keyfigure with an equivalent data on the ODS (same characteristic). The problem is that when i create the actualization rules for the IC the ratio don't letme change the update type from "No update", how can i resolve it.
thanks in advance

Hi,
when E&M signaling is configured on digital interface like the VWIC is, 2 or 4 wires operation is not applicable because there are no wires at all, and reported only for compatibility with the analog E&M card.
Consequently, you cannot configure that and it will not make any difference to effect of the connection.
Please rate post if it helps!

Addition vs. Overwrite for Update Type in Update Rules

I have an ODS that is updated by transaction data. A key figure in the ODS is set to "Addition" (not overwrite) in the update rules. My question is, if a transaction record is changed in ERP - only a characteristic in the record, not the key figure, when I load the ODS using a delta extraction, will the key figure be added again to the existing value in the ODS? or will the key figure match ERP?
If update type "addition" does not work with delta extractions, what is it used for?
Many thanks for your help.

Hi,
it depends what the ERP datasource will send as delta for this KF:
- if it was 10, the document is changed to 12 and your delta sends 2 then this wroks peoperly. Usually the delta will send -10 +12, which is the same.
- if the delta just resends the "after image", the 12, the your KF should be overwrite since an add would mess it up.
Your last Q is answered with the first point, right?
hope this helps...

Error in Securities DBT update types

Hi experts
We are using securities module (Transaction manager) to manage our stock (equity) transactions.
We have defined the update types for (DBT_E001 and DBT_B001) as not relevant to posting as i do not want to post the gain / loss on sale of securities in some companies (say A) using these DBTs.
However for a few other companies (say B) i have to post the accounting entries. Hence we have made the update type relevant to posting.
But with this it generates accounting entries for co code A as well as B.
I have also tried to make "offline" in control of online calculation of DBT. but it only postpones the flow generation. i have to generate and post the flows before i do key date valuation.
I want to activate DBT flows for co code B but not for A.
Please suggest
Regards
Gaurav Gupta

Hi Gaurav,
Your rqmt can not be addressed by making update types relevant for posting, as update types are not cocd specific. You need to use following specifications seperately for each company code:
a. seperate Accounting Code for each cocd if the valuation class is same for both cocd, else maintain different valuation class.
b. Different Position Management procedure for each Company Code based on few Key fields (Accounting code/Val Class)
c. Assignment of each PMP to respective Acct Code/Valuation Class
d. Then you copy existing update type DBT_E001 and DBT_B001 and make a copy.
e. Mark newly created update type not for posting
f. Assign newly created update type in Dervied Business Transactions of new PMP instead of DBT_E001 and DBT_B001
By setting above, for both cocd the flows generated by system will be same but with different update type and one set of update type is already marked for posting and other not.
Otherthan this, another alternative is to maintain dummy GLs in Acct Determination so that no amount will post to actual GLs based on Cocd.
Hope this will solve your problem.

Error in ODS Update Rules.

Hi,
We have an abap routine in an ODS Update rules to get FISC YEAR (type NUMC 4) with a field FISCPER(numc 7) from a table. This routine worked fine. But now we moved the abap routine to cmod program in r/3, and when I am doing a direct mapping of fiscper to fiscyear, I am getting this error message 'Fiscal year variant missing for time conversion of characteristic 0FISCYEAR'. I already did a direct mapping of Fiscal year variant in the update rules.
Am I missing some thing here?
Thanks!

Yes, I am getting fiscvar as V6 from cmod program in r/3, and did a direct mapping in update rules.

Assign Internal Orders to Update types

I am trying to post my bank fees to multiple internal orders under one Cost Element. When running t-code TBB1, the draw fees are posted automatically for the respective transactions based on what was entered in t-code FTR_EDIT on the Other Flows tab. We use the same Cost Element for all our fees and have a default Internal Order set up in OKB9 for that Cost Element for our Cash Management area. The use of different Internal Orders is needed as the draw fees are associated with the Treasury area. Is there a way that I set up which internal order will be used dependant on the update type?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Wayne

Assign update types to Posting Specification under valuation area

Hi Friends,
Under account determiination , in Dialog structure ( left side), there are two area for ' ASSIGN UPDATE TYPES TO POSTING SPEC ' . I had to make assignment in both the area for spot transactions FX for posting spec 11100 & 11200 and update types FX1000+ and FX2000-.
But the one grouped under 'Valuation area' is not required I think. Pl let me know if i have missed some settings. that the system is asking me to do assignment in BOTH places.
Thanks
kamala

Hi,
Normally, we customize system with single valuation area (Operative) only. You need to complete customization in Valuation area category if you are maintaining multiple valuation area under single legal entity. In case of multiple valuation area settings, it is better to give account determination setting too seperately for all VA. Generally, parallel valuation may have very few accounting like MTM valuation etc, else all update type with parallel valuation can be marked "Not relevant for positng"

TPM44 Error: No Update type defined for reset

Hello Experts,
Need your help on the TPM44 error I encountered. When I tried to execute TPM44 it mentioned this:
No update type defined for reset (003,L419,001,510,51A,MM1905-)
And the procedure is to define the update type for the reset flow.
But I verified my config and I already did set it up. under Assign Update type for Accrual/Deferral.
Can you please advise what else is missing?
Thanks.
Katherine

Hello Ravi,
I was able to fix his one by populating the deferral update type as well.
Thanks for your advise but now I have a new error:
Please maintain same amount for FC and GC. FC and GC same currency
The FC and GC Ive maintained in the Assignment of Valuation Area to Accounting code is both USD.
Im not sure why Im encountering above error.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Katherine

Update types in infopackage for generic data source

Update Types...

Hi Gurus,
Can you please Explain the difference between Update Types...
We found in the Cube Level only two Update Types..
Addition
No Update
ODS Level we have Three Update Types...
Addition
No Update
*Overwrite
Please Explain...
Thanks
Prakash

Hi Prakash,
Consider an example
Char1    Char 2     KF1

A           B            20... incoming in DTP
in the Cube Level only two Update Types..
Addition - The key figure brought in the new record would be added to the key figure value of the record in the cube having the same value for the characteristics of the cube.
Result
A     B       30
No Update -
No value is put in for thekey fig or the key fig is left blank
Result
A     B         ' '
ODS Level we have Three Update Types...
Addition
Same as above..Incoming records key fig is added to the DSO key fig for the same key.
No Update
No value is populated.
*Overwrite
Previous value is overwritten by the incoming records key fig value.
Result
A      B   20
