Start routine update rules

Hi Gurus,
We are nw04s BI SP10 and I've completely implemented Note 981194. I can't seem to get my start routine update rules to convert using Transformation Erzeugen. I tried several scenarios, and still no success.
If somebody has code for BI 7 transformation start routine for datasources 2LIS_03_BX, BF and UM to the 0IC_C03 cube, I would greatly appreciate an email to [email protected] . Points will be assigned. I can cut/paste the routines from the update rules, I just need the start routines.
Kind Regards,
Alex

Don't trust the converter - you have to check it all from end to end anyway so might as well do it manually.
I did the whole of _BF yesterday.
Here's the start routine.
*<2004s code>
    field-symbols:
           <fs_SOURCE_PACKAGE> type tys_sc_1.
only movements from to evaluated stocks are concerned
if stock-category is not intitial -> Delete from data-packag
or Header of generic article      -> Delete from data-packag
    loop at SOURCE_PACKAGE assigning <fs_SOURCE_PACKAGE>.
      if not <fs_SOURCE_PACKAGE>-bsttyp is initial
      or ( <fs_SOURCE_PACKAGE>-bwvorg = '450' and
           <fs_SOURCE_PACKAGE>-bwapplnm = 'IS-R' ) .
        delete SOURCE_PACKAGE.
      endif.
    endloop.
*</2004s code>
Cheers

Convert ABAP code in start routine/update rule to transform. start routine

Dear BW ABAPers,
I have created a custom purchasing info cube (YCP_PURC1) based on 0CP_PURC1 standard cube. I would like to convert this new data flow to BI7 (from 3.x), and convert the standard update rule to transformation. I would need to rewrite the below start routine from the standard update rule to a start routine ABAP code in the newly created transformation / start routine. My ABAP knowledge is limited. Will you please help?
*this is the start routine from the update rule. As a side note, the data source is 2LIS_02_SCL.
LOOP AT SOURCE_PACKAGE.
    IF (     SOURCE_PACKAGE-cppvlc EQ 0
         AND SOURCE_PACKAGE-cppvoc EQ 0
         AND SOURCE_PACKAGE-cpquaou EQ 0 ).
      DELETE SOURCE_PACKAGE.
      CONTINUE.
    ENDIF.
no_scl is initial ( e.g. for good receipts, billing)
value has to be set depending on storno
    IF SOURCE_PACKAGE-no_scl IS INITIAL.
      IF SOURCE_PACKAGE-storno = 'X'.
        SOURCE_PACKAGE-no_scl = -1.
      ELSE.
        SOURCE_PACKAGE-no_scl = 1.
      ENDIF.
      MODIFY SOURCE_PACKAGE.
    ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
if abort is not equal zero, the update process will be canceled
ABORT = 0.
Many thanks and look forward to your kind feedback.
Kind regards,
Csaba

Dear All, Durgesh,
thanks to you all for your valuable input. Mainly the ABAP part was more interesting for me.
Durgesh, thanks for your input, it was useful. I just had to change the info objects to data source fields and add the lines before the loop:
DATA: I_PACKAGE TYPE TYT_SC_1.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS <i_package> TYPE tys_sc_1.
    I_PACKAGE[] = SOURCE_PACKAGE[].
    LOOP AT SOURCE_PACKAGE assigning <i_package>.
      IF ( <i_package>-BWGEO EQ 0
      AND <i_package>-BWGEOO EQ 0
      AND <i_package>-BWMNG EQ 0 ).
        DELETE SOURCE_PACKAGE index sy-tabix.
        CONTINUE.
      ENDIF.
no_scl is initial ( e.g. for good receipts, billing)
value has to be set depending on storno
      IF <i_package>-NOSCL IS INITIAL.
        IF <i_package>-ROCANCEL = 'X'.
          <i_package>-NOSCL = -1.
        ELSE.
          <i_package>-NOSCL = 1.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.

Start Routine / Update Rule ABAP

Hello Gurus
I am trying to write the code to do the following but I am not getting very far:
Two parts:
Load from DSO1 to Cube1
Only when DSO1-Product also exists in DSO2
Also lookup a field, FIELD1, from DSO2 which is not in DSO1, but is in DSO2 (based on Product which exists in all three)
There may be more than one FIELD1 per Product.
Any help appreciated.
NB I am in 3.5

okay , here is how it can be done..
Step 1:Create an Internal table for SOURE_PACKAGE, DSO2
Step2: populate the data in the internal table of DSO1 & DSO2
Step3: create a type to store the list of products and the list of additional fields present in DSO2. move the entries to this table from DSO2.
Step4: create a range that stores the list of products present
Loop at IT_Source_package
delete source where product = range
move corresponding values from type table to IT_source_package
Endloop.
Append IT_Source_Package to Source_Package
hope this helps.

Deleting data package entries in start rout/update rule

in my logic in the start routine , i wish to delete all records form data_package where data_package-fieldx = somevalue .
can i do it using a single statement in one shot ? if yes , how ?
or do i have to loop through the entire package , check the condition and then delete .

create internal table with 2 fields, billno and item
loop at datapackage
read internal table to see if it is there,
if not, add the record,
if yes, delete the datapackage.
endloop
This way, your datapackage will have only the 1st record for each set.
Good Luck,
CL

Is it possible to read a third ODS in update rules between two ODS?

Hi,
       I have ODS1 and ODS2. I need to have data coming from ODS1 to ODS2. But there is a field "F" in ODS2 that doesnot exist in ODS1. I need to get this from a third ODS3. Is it possible to write a routine in the update rules for ODS2 to read the "F" from third ODS3 and return it in "ODS2"? If so how?
I appreciate if anybody can refer me to any documentation. Also my id is [email protected]
Thank you.

hi Visu,
yes, it's possible.
say the ods name is zods1, zods2, zods3, you can write a start routine update rules like following :
PROGRAM UPDATE_ROUTINE.
$$ begin of global - insert your declaration only below this line -
TABLES: /bic/azods300
/bic/a[odsname]00 or /bi0/a[odsname] is the ods active table name /bi0 for business content, /bic for customize
DATA: l_tabix like sy-tabix,
it_ods like /bic/azods300 occurs 0 with header line.
$$ begin of routine - insert your code only below this line        -
fill the internal tables "MONITOR" and/or "MONITOR_RECNO",
to make monitor entries
data : it_data_package like DATA_PACKAGE occurs 0 with header line.
select * from /bic/azods300
into table it_ods.
loop at data_package.
l_tabix = sy-tabix.
move-corresponding DATA_PACKAGE to it_data_package.
read it_ods with key [field name] = it_data_package-[fieldname]
if more key add it_data_package-[fieldname] - without AND
if sy-subrc = 0.
   it_data_package-F = it_ods-F.
   modify data_package from it_data_package index l_tabix.
endif.
endloop.
hope this helps.

Update Routine & Start Routine in BI 7.0

Hi Experts,
We have recently upgraded from BI 7.0 , I am confused about where to write start routine & update routine in transformations of BI 7.0?
Please mention any pointers?
Thanks.
Sharat.

Hi
When you open the start routine you will see a routines info which gives you help on this.
A summary would be:
Update routine in transformation.
RESULT = source_field-material.
Basically you can acess the value of the record by using source_field.
Start routine.
The data comes in the form of an internal table with name SOURCE_PACKAGE.
You can access the values by looping into a work area.
LOOP AT SOURCE_PACKAGE assigning <source_fields>.
ENDLOOP.
End routine(This is a new feature in BI 7.0 where you can modify data when transformations are complete and before data is updated to info-providers)
The data comes in the form of an internal table with name RESULT_PACKAGE.
You can access the values by looping into a work area.
LOOP AT RESULT_PACKAGE assigning <result_fields>.
ENDLOOP.
Hope this helps you to understand the basics of the abap used in the transformations .

Samarpita

Start Routine in Update Rule

I want to replace all '# ' values showing up in a report with space. For this I plan to write a Start Routine in the Update Rules which should scan all the data coming in into the cube and replace all null or '' with space.
What is the best way to write this routine. It should check all data in all the fields of the data load coming in.
Thanks

Hi,
     The space is shown as # in the BW Reports, to confirm check the value in the cube for this field, so
      you need to change that to some other character like X or Y or explain your end users that SAP
      designates a space as # and it will be displayed that way in the reports.

Raj

Calculations in Update rules/Start routine/End Routine

Hi Friends,
I have loaded data to a DSO and i have three fields in to it. Lets say Filed1, Filed2 and Field3. Field1 and Field2 are being populated through an update rule in transformation. Aggregation type for these two fields are "Summation".
Now, after the transformation executed, the Field1 and Field2 are filled with values. I want to calculate the value of Field3 as follows:
Field3 = Field1 - Field2
Can anyone tell me where can i do this calculation? I know we can do this in End routine and in Query but i want to know if there is any other place i can do this calculation in transformation? In try to do this calculation in the update rule for Field3 in transformation, i dont see Field1 and Field2 as these are not source fields. I can not write formula also because we can write formula only on source fields not the data target fields.
Your help will be appreciated in terms of points.
Thanks,
manmit

Hi,
in the start routine in the global section define the two fields:
data: g_amount1 type /bic/oi<your keyfigure name>,
g_amount2 type /bic/oi<your keyfigure name>.
in the routines to your 2 keyfigures store the result in that fields too.
routine for field1.
g_amount1 = result.
routine for field2.
g_amount2 = result.
and in the routine to field3
result = g_amount1 - g_amount2." or whatever calculation/derivation has to be done.
kind regards

How to debug start routines of update rules from ODS to InfoCube

Dear gurus,
I have an update rule from ODS to InfoCube. I wrote a start routine in the update rule. Now I want to debug it. I went to monitor and simulate update the data package and only got the prompt "No data exists in the corresponding PSA table". So how can I debug this start routine?
Thanks in advance.
Jin Ming

Jin,
In order to use PSA between ODS and InfoCube, you may have to use an exclusive InfoPackage and load separately. In that InfoPackage, choose the radio button to use a PSA.
I think you are currently updating the InfoCube directly without using a separate InfoPackage.
Look for an InfoSource under DataMarts (search for 8<ODS Technical name>) and create your InfoPackage there.
Good luck.

Deleting rows with missing values in field in start routine of update rule

Hello experts,
how can I delet rows with missing values in a specific field in the start routine of update rules?
I think ABAP code should look something like this:
delete ... from DATA_PACKAGE where Z_NO = ''.
thanks in advance for any suggestions!
hiza

Write:
delete data_package where field = value.
Hope it helps.

ABAP Help at start routine of Update rule

Good After Noon All,
My requirement is that cube ZAPO_C24M theres an UPDR flowing from 8ZAPO_C24M back to itself so to speak.The request is to change the data in the cube from Fiscal Year Variant Z3 to Z4.
But in start routine i have to take the existing record and reverse all of the key figures, and also change the RECORDMODE of the record to indicate it is a reversal record. This for specific Country KR and for these country the Fiscal variant is Z3. Again in the start routine, create a new record identical to the existing record that has Fiscal Year Variant Z4 instead of Z3.
So the idea is wed load from the cube and send back to the cube one record that reverses out the existing data, and another record that contains the same data but with Fiscal Variant Z4 instead of Z3.
Please Help me.
Points will be awarded for the right answer

Hi Vaishali,
In the start routine copy the DATA_PACKAGE to a local table.
Select the records where the specific country is KR.
Delete all other records.
Then read the records in loop, Keep one record same and just change the fiscal year variant.
And for the same multiply all the key figures by -1.
Transfer the content of the local table back to DATA_PACKAGE.
maintain one to one mapping in the update rule.
I am sure it will update, but you need to be sure that if you change Fiscal year variant then probably your fiscal period value should change. In that case you have to update it accordingly in the start routine.
Regards.

ABAP assistance - start routine logic in update rule

I have used an existing update rule and have based my logic around the same. The purpose of the rule is to look up customer master data and get a subset of customer numbers from the transaction records so that the values for customer number from the transactional data will not be updated if it does not match with existing master data customer numbers.
The loads are full and we drop the data before we load.
I have listed the logic below (the number at the front is to be considered as the line number) and a list of open questions that I have thereafter:
Start routine logic:
1 DATA: l_index LIKE sy-tabix.
2 DATA: BEGIN OF ls_customer,
3        customer TYPE /BI0/OICUSTOMER,
4        objver TYPE RSOBJVERS,
5     END OF ls_customer,
6      lt_customer LIKE TABLE OF ls_customer.
7 REFRESH: lt_customer.
8 LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
all customers from data package
9    ls_customer-custno = DATA_PACKAGE-custid.
10 ls_customer-objver = 'A'
11    APPEND ls_customer TO lt_customer.
12   ENDLOOP.
12 SORT lt_customer.
13 DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM lt_customer.
14   IF NOT lt_customer[] IS INITIAL.
15    SELECT /BI0/OICUSTOMER RSOBJVERS
16      FROM /BI0/PCUSTOMER
17      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_customer
18      FOR ALL ENTRIES IN lt_customer
19      WHERE ls_customer-custno = DATA_PACKAGE-custid
20      AND ls_customer-objver = 'A'
21    SORT lt_customer BY customer ASCENDING
22 ENDIF.
Questions
Line
1 - what is the purpose of this line? What is it that is being declared
2 - in some code I have seen this line with OCCURS 0 at the end what does this mean with and without the term?
4 - I am using the Data Element name is this correct or should I use the field name?
3 - 5 here I declare an internal structure/table is that correct?
6 - here I declare a work area based on the internal table is that correct?
7 - What would happen if I avoided using the REFRESH statement?
8 - 12 - Is this syntactically correct, I am trying to get a set of data which is the customer numbers which match the master data customers and the master data record is án active version and than appendíng to the work area?
13 - My understanding is this will reduce the number of records in the work area is this correct and needed?
14 - 22 I am trying to identify my required set of data but feel I am repeating myself, could someone advise?
Finally what logic would I actually need to write in the key figure object, could I use something like:
Result = lt_customer.
Thanks
Edited by: Niten Shah on Jun 30, 2008 8:06 PM

1. This line is not required
2. OCCURS 0 is the OLD way of defining an internal table with that structure. As it is, it just defines a flat structure.
3. Data element is usually best
3-5 Yes
6. No. Here you are declaring a table of the type of the flat structure. Just as the ABAP says!
7. Nothing. But by putting this in, you ensure that you know the state of the table (empty) before you start looping through the data package
8-12. You can tell if it is syntactically correct by pressing Ctrl-F2 when in the editor. Looks ok.
13. Ensures your list of customers contains no duplicated. The code up to this point is building a list of all the unique customers in the data package.
14-22. Goes to the database and brings back ONLY those customers which are found in the master data. Looks ok.
This is a start routine (that's why you've got a data package). You don't use result. You should update the datapackage. But this you haven't done. Double click on the table name /BIC/PCUSTOMER to get the correct field names.
So you have to loop through the data package again, and check if the customer in the datapackage is lt_customer. If it is, fine, otherwise you blank it and report an error, or set an error message or whatever.
I wouldn't do it like this. I'd do something like this:
STATICS: st_customer TYPE HASHED TABLE OF TYPE /bi0/oicustomer
                              WITH UNIQUE KEY TABLE_LINE.
* st_customer retains its value between calls, so only populate if empty
* In one run of the infopackage, this will mean you do only one read of
* the master data, so very efficient.
IF st_customer IS INITIAL.
SELECT customer FROM /BI0/PCUSTOMER
                          INTO TABLE st_customer
                          WHERE objvers EQ 'A'. " Only active values
ENDIF.
* Go through data package
LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
* Check whether the customer exists.
READ TABLE st_customer TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS
              WITH TABLE KEY table_line = DATA_PACKAGE-custid.
CHECK sy-subrc IS NOT INITIAL.
* If you get here, the customer isn't valid. So I'm just setting it blank
CLEAR DATA_PACKAGE-custid.
MODIFY DATA_PACKAGE. " Updates the datapackage record
ENDLOOP.
Even this is not fully optimised, but it's not bad.
I strongly suggest that you get yourself sent on the basic ABAP programming course if you're going to do a lot of this. Otherwise, read the ABAP documentation in the help.sap.com, and, from the editor, get the cursor on each ABAP keyword and press F1 to read the ABAP help.

How to get the PSA name in a Start Routine in the Update Rules of a Cube.

Hi all.
I have an InfoSource that loads data directly in an Infocube.
In the Start Routine of the Update Rules I need to retrieve the PSA table name for that InfoSource, to access it and check some data.
I can't use the PSA name you seen in the DataFlow because it will change once the update rules are transported to another system.
Please advice.
Thanks!!!

Hi,
we do it as follows:
first get the request ID:
DATA: tp_request(30) VALUE 'REQUEST'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <wa> TYPE ANY, <tp_req> TYPE ANY, <tp_dtp> TYPE ANY.
READ TABLE datapak ASSIGNING <wa> INDEX 1.
IF sy-subrc <> 0. ABORT = 4. ENDIF.
ASSIGN COMPONENT tp_request OF STRUCTURE <wa> TO <tp_req>.
IF sy-subrc <> 0. ABORT = 4. ENDIF.
requnr = <tp_req>.
then we get the table with
SELECT odsname_tech FROM rstsodspart WHERE request = requnr.
you may need to adjust this code, I've just pasted the relevant parts...
another way is to get this info from RSTSODS where the different versions are maintained...
let me know if you need further detail about this stuff...
hope this helps...

Filtering records using a start routine inside the update rules for a dmart

Hi
I am using a start routine inside the update rules. I want to filter out all records that have 0 in all three fields. My problem is that it not only filters these records, but also filter records with negative values, which I do not want. Only 1 field has a negative value, the other 2 have 0.
I have tried:
DELETE DATA_PACKAGE where /BIC/ZBILLCONS = 0 and /BIC/ZBREVPRIM = 0 and /BIC/ZBREVSUBO = 0 .
DELETE DATA_PACKAGE where ( /BIC/ZBILLCONS = 0 and /BIC/ZBREVPRIM = 0 and /BIC/ZBREVSUBO = 0 ).
also tried:
delete DATA_PACKAGE where /BIC/ZBILLCONS IS INITIAL and
/BIC/ZBREVPRIM IS INITIAL and /BIC/ZBREVSUBO IS INITIAL.
The records are going to 1 cube and 1 ODS, I only have the start routine in 1 update rule. I view the filtering in the PSA.
Has anyone ran into this before?

Try
delete data_package where /BIC/ZBILLCONS = '0' and /BIC/ZBREVPRIM = '0' and /BIC/ZBREVSUBO = '0' .
OR
delete data_package where /BIC/ZBILLCONS EQ '0' and /BIC/ZBREVPRIM EQ '0' and /BIC/ZBREVSUBO EQ '0' .
Good luck!
