Sparse Data Issue from APO

We are currently trying to extract data from APO into an external BI system.
The problem is that we get a large amount of data through but with very sparse values. Is there a recommended way to cut down the number of records the extractor pulls through from APO?
I am currently using the 9AMALO datasource.
Thank you inadvance for any advice offered.

In the end, used custom function module in APO to extract the data.

  • Replication of Data Source from APO to External BI

    Hi Experts,
    I want to create a data source on DP/SNP planning area & replicate it directly to External BI instead of APO BW. Is it possible to replicate data source from APO to directly External BI? If yes then How?
    Regards
    Sujay

    Hi Sujay,
          If you would like to replciate a particular Data source then Go to BW -> TCode RSDS ( Data source Repository)
    Data Source = ( specify which you would like to replciate )
    Source system = Specify source system name.
    Go to Menu option Data Source -> Replicate Data source or you can use CTRL + SHIFT + F2
    These steps will replicate only the data source which you would like to replicate.
    Thanks,

  • Automated data load from APO to SEM transactional cube

    Hi ,
    We have BW-SEM system integrated with APO system.
    I could see automated data loads from APO to SEM transactional cube ..
    Infopackage name as "Request loaded using the APO interface without monitor log" ..
    I don't see any infopackage by this name in both the systems ( APO & SEM )..
    I am not sure how it configured ..
    Appreciate any inputs on how its happens .....
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    As I mentioned the starting point will be the tcode BPS0. There will be 2 planning areas created (if I am correct) one for SEM cube and the other for APO cube. The better way to find it will be goto tcode se16 and enter UPC_BW_AREA and key in the cube names in the cube field. this will give you the planning area names now look for a multiplanning area which has the 2 areas included in them (this is available in table UPC_AREAM).
    then goto BPS0 and you will have to find which function is being used to post the data.
    thanks

  • Transferring Product Master Data Changes From APO to ECC/R/3

    Is it possible to transfer product master data changes in APO to ECC via the CIF?  If so, does it require custom coding?

    Hi James,
    In all the different clients where APO is being used with ECC systems. ECC system is always the main system (system of record) which contains all the master data and data present in ECC supposed to be the reference for APO system for planning purpose.
    Generally it is not recommended to transfer master data from APO to ECC but as mentioned earlier by some experts you may have ways to do that.
    I would be interested in the business scenario where one needs to transfer master data from APO to ECC.

  • Master Data issue from external system to BW

    Hi,
    BW Version: BI 7.0
    Source System : Oracle D/B
    The Data will be processed by some external application and the processes Data will be stored in tables in Oracle D/B.I am extracting Data from Oracle Tables to BW.
    The issue i had is in the external application for example if we created a new Location ID,The new location ID won't be avaliable in Oracle untill i use it (assing it to any employee)
    Once i assign it to employee then the Location ID and Description will be avaliable transaction tables.
    Then in this cas how can i load master data to location ID in BW.
    or
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Simply create a Location ID InfoObject that will work as Master Data. Then create a datasource for the extraction of the Location ID Master Data (at least for the attributes, and probably for the texts as well).
    You can then schedule an update of this data everynight via process chains.
    All this will update the desired information independently from the transaction data.
    Hope it helps,

  • Master Data Loading from APO--- BW System

    Hi Experts,
    I am loading master  data from the APO to bW System,after loading data into the BW System ,I found the number of data records are mismatching
    ex:APO (8340) --->BW (9445)
    and that to I tried to delet the data in InfoObject,
    only some records are deleting
    and one more doubt
    in APO i have info object ZA9MATNR CHAR 40
    With Conversion Routine PRODU
    in BW i have the same info object ZA9MATNR CHAR 40 with Conversion Routine ALPHA.
    and I have checked the Check box in transfer rules also,may be becoz of this I am getting more records.
    Could any body help me
    Thanks in Advance...
    Regards,
    Nagamani.

    Hi,
    Ideally it is impossible to get the increased count of data records when you load it into BW unless you are using the RETURN TABLE concept.
    Normally the record count decreases with the records with same keys gets overwritten/added.
    Coming to your second question, ALPHA conversion routine has nothing to do with the record count. It appends the ZEROS to the value coming in that InfoObject. For example, if the lenght of the object is 5 and data is coming only in 3 digits, it will append the ZEROS to make its length 5.
    Hope this info helps you.

  • Data movement from R/3 DB to APO DB and to Live cache

    Dear APO Experts,
    I have few questions on live cache and how it works, I understand that Live cache is memory resident database. below are my questions.
    1) What sought of data move from R/3 DB to APO DB and then to Live cache DB
    2) When data moves from APO DB to Live cache, till how much duration that data stays in live cache
    3) And how does data gets pulled in to live cache from APO DB
    4) Why do we require live cache logs while data never gets commited to hard disk
    5) Do we ever add a datafile to Live cache DB
    any info that you provide on this will be really helpfull to me
    Thanks,
    Chetan

    Hello Chetan,
    As you know, itu2019s MAXDB/liveCache forum.
    What is the version of your system?
    The is documentation available at:
       SAP liveCache technology
    < Please review document u201CWhat is SAP liveCache technology?u201D >
    Sap documents at service.sap.com/scm -> Technology:
    u201CliveCache overviewu201D and u201CIntegration overviewu201D
    For SAP liveCache documentation also see the SAP note 767598.
    Go to SAP link Best Practices for Solution Management: mySAP SCM at   SAP liveCache technology ...
    And Review the document u201CManage APO Core Interface in SAP APO (3.x) / mySAP SCM (4.x/ 5.0)u201D
    1. As you saw in the reference documents the data transferred from the connected R/3 system to APO.
    And the transactional data could be uploaded to the liveCache, if you downloaded them
    to the APO database cluster tables first. This procedure steps are running during the
    system upgrade < for example, from SCM 5.0 to SCM 7.0 ) u2013 report /SAPAPO/OM_LC_UPGRADE_70 steps. Or you want to migrate the          
    liveCache to another operating system or convert your system to Unicode,  
    and therefore you want to back up the liveCache data first so that you    
    can reload it into the liveCache afterwards - SAP Note No. 632357.                              
    2. Could you collaborate more on this sentence. Could you give examples?
    3.  u201CAnd how does data gets pulled in to live cache from APO DBu201D
        The data are not pulled from the APO DB to liveCache.
         When you changed the APO data on the system the LCA procedures have been called from ABAP. The objects stored in the class containers in liveCache can be accessed and manipulated only via LCA routines. The registration of the LCA routines is done automatically when the liveCache is started by the LC10. The LCA procedures in the LiveCache are written in C++                          
    and shipped to the customers as binary LCA libraries(LCA build) together with the LiveCache.
    < See more details in SAP Note No. 824489 or 1278897 as of SCM 7.0 >
    4. See the SAP notes:
                   869267     FAQ: SAP MaxDB LOG area
                 1377148     FAQ: SAP MaxDB backup/recovery
    5. You could run the quicksizer & estimate how much data you are planning to have in liveCache.
         Also the amount of data could be increased by the creation of the new data in APO by users
         Or another reason u2026
         In general you will add the datavolume to solve or prevent the DB_FULL issue,
         See u201C17. What do I do if the data area is full? u201C in SAP note 846890.

  • APO/BW: How to get back from APO to BW/ How the send data from BW to APO

    Hi,
    1. I read that BW is the “data layer” for APO DP and therefore, I expected data to flow from BW, the data layer, to APO DP but not the reverse. Yet, I also read that “data can be transferred from ‘Livecache’ back to BW by using the ‘extractor technology’ from BW. Can you clarify this for me?
    2. If possible, please provide the steps to use this extractor technology to extract data back to BW in detail so that I can try it.
    Thanks

    Hi Amanda,
    1. The data flow is from BW to APO, and from APO to BW.
    from bw to apo, to feed planning area, characteristic value combination, in APO we have infocube to feed the data, as we know APO has BW inside (all the tcodes RSA1 etc are valid), datamart scenario is used here, we create infocube in APO, update rules, infosource and assign datasource from BW.
    The data flow from APO to BW, to get the plan data inputted by user, we generate datasource in APO from planning area (compare with 'generate export datasource' from infocube), transaction /SAPAPO/SDP_EXTR. 'extractor technology' here in practice is just like when we are using datasource
    take a look
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/c9/199170f13711d4b2f20050da385632/frameset.htm
    2. as mentioned in #1, you can use the transaction /SAPAPO//SAPAPO/SDP_EXTR to handle planning area-datasources in APO, or /SAPAPO/MSDP_ADMIN - planning area; choose your planning area, and menu extractor tools (or generate datasources), again datamart scenario is used here, after the datasource generated in APO, it's replicated in BW (APO act as source system), the rest steps are just same as when extract data from other SAP source system
    simply what you need to practice is /SAPAPO/SDP_EXTR to 'generate export datasource', the rest steps should be familiar already for you
    check
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_scm50/helpdata/en/8f/9d6937089c2556e10000009b38f889/frameset.htm

  • RE : BI APO Question Reg Data feeding from cube to Planning area.

    Hi BW Experts,
    iam working in an Implementation project for SCM in BW prcisely working with APO Bw..
    For that I have taken historical data as a flat file and loaded it in to the external BW Infocube and its fine...
    Second step I have created generate export datasource on topr of BW infocube and replicated in to Bw and used this export datasource as datasource for APO BW Infocube which is inbulit BW System from External Bw..
    also I have created tranformations and data is loaded in the BW cube in APO system.Also Included Version charecterstics..
    When I try to fed the APO Cube data to planning area Iam gettinga the following  warning itsnot an error:
    1.Key figure copy: InfoCube - planning area (DP) 01.01.2010 to 31.12.2010-- Successful
    *2.No data exists for the selection made (see long text*

    For the second point I have time charecterstics filled in the infocube which Iam feding to a Planning area like 0CALMONTH,0CALWEEK,FiscVarnt,0CALMONTH
    3.Characteristic assignment: No data copied --- Message
    Can you please help me with your thoughts so that i wll try to corner the issue I will be highly obliged

    Hi,
    As I understood, you have loaded data from external BW cube to APO BW cube and now loading planning area from APO BW cube.
    I hope your settings in /SAPAPO/TSCUBE transaction code would be correct and you have selected the correct planning version with correct cube.
    Check if Data in APO BW cube is available for reporting or not and data is avilable for given selction (if any but I guess you are not giving any).
    Thanks,

  • Using ABAP DATA FLOW to pull data from APO tables

    I am trying to use an ABAP Data flow to pull data from APO and receive error 150301. I can do a direct table pull and receive no error, but when I try to put it in an ABAP data data flow I get the issue. Any help would be great.

    Hi
    I know you "closed" this, however someone else might read it so I'll add that when you use an ABAP dataflow, logic can be pushed to ECC - table joins, filters, etc.  (Which can be seen in the generated ABAP).

  • Error during extraction data from APO system

    HI Gurus,
    We are extracting data from APO system at regular intervals. As poart of business requirement, we enhanced the data existing data source in APO dev system and replicated the same in BW dev system and activated the Tx structure and Tx rules.
    When we checked it is working fine in dev environment.
    Now we moved the same in Quality system, and we tried to extract data, it throws error " error in data selection in source system".
    We tried to check in RSA3 in APO and found that the extract program still refers to the old extract structre and gives dump " Extract structure unknown".
    Could anybody throw some light on this issue.
    Tnx in advance.
    Guru

    Hi,
    Have u collected all the objects in R3,like the Table/View , DS,Extract Structure.
    And
    Has replication been done in BI side for the same.

  • How to delete Master Data transferred from ECC to APO via CIF

    Hi, all
    I'm connecting SCM 5.1 with ECC 6.0 via CIF.
    When activating Integration Model in ECC, the following error occurred;
       "Location 0001 of type 1001 (BSG 592BUSGP) already exists in APO"
    This is because Location 0001 was already transferred from different ECC client via CIF, and not cleared.
    I'm now trying to initialise master data transferred from ECC to APO via CIF, but in vain.
    I suppose I have to first delete all master data CIFed from ECC in APO, or have to execute initialisation of APO master data with ECC data in ECC.
    Please tell me how to do this.
    For details, please read the followings;
    I connected APO client with ECC client 590.
    I transferred Plant and Material Master from ECC to APO via CIF.
    After that, I wanted to change ECC client from 590 to the other.
    I created the other client (592) by client-copying from 590 with SAP_ALL copy profile.
    I deactivated Integration Model in ECC 590, and activated the same in ECC 592.
    Here, I faced the problem.
    The initial data transfer failed due to the duplicate of data.
    Now I'm wondering how I can initialise master data in APO and transfer initial data from ECC.
    Due to testing purposes, I have to change ECC clients from one to the other this time, but I cannot initialise master data in APO and cannot tansfer initial data from different ECC client.
    thanks in advance,
    Hozy

    Hi all,
    Thank you very much indeed for lots of your replies.
    Thanks to all of your advices, I'm getting to understand what to do.
    Well, I'll say I have to create one more client for testing with other ECC clients or I have to rebuild the client by client-copying from 001 and implementing all transportation requests, for marking del flags to each master data and running del programme sound like tough work, and sound like odd ..
    Then, I've got next issue here.
    In SCM-APO, I use BI objects, and , if I have to create several clients for testing, I have to set up clients where you can use both BI objects and CIFed master data.
    I suppose I have to change 'BWMANDT' in RSADMINA and make RSA1 accessable in other SCM clients and implement tests.
    Also, I have to register BI System for newly created SCM clients in RSA1-SourceSystem.
    Well, if you have any experiences on this kind of use, and if you have any advice on it, please give me any tips.
    Particulary, I'd appreciate very much if you give me advice on which way you have chosen; creating several clients or rebuilding the one client in SCM-APO when you use both BI objects, CIFed master data and Demand Planning.
    Thanks in advance.
