Stop document posting while doing LO Initialization

Hi All,
I am using the "Delta Queue" method. Is it really necessary to stop the document posting while we do the Setup table filling?
I am asking this because, I tested it in my quality system and found the following:
- Once you clear RSA7, LBWQ & Setup table, you can start filling the setup table with OLI*BW or from SBIW.
- Any new document posted while filling the setup table goes to LBWQ.
- New documents posted while filling setup table are not collected into the setup table.
- Once filling is done, you can run the Init, and after that delta queue is created in RSA7.
- You can run the update job, to get the documents posted while filling the setup table into delta queue and the get to BW by running delta extraction.
So, if I follow these steps and not ask the users to stop document posting, will I still lose some data in BW?
Pls advise friends...

Bijesh

Hi,
It's not a requirement that the setup tables be loaded during "quiet time" on the source system, it merely a recommendation from SAP. The reason that most like to use a "quiet time" is to avoid slower response time by normal business day transactions and the potential for losing data.
If you execute an Init w/o Data Transfer InfoPackage on your BW environment just after you start xecuting the setup tables you won't risk a loss of data. You may, however, have an small amount of overlap of data. If the target for the DataSource is overwrite, then there is no issues. If it's cumulative, then you're going to have to delete the duplicate entries from the first delta PSA.
The optimal time to do the setup jobs is when you can ensure there are no transactions or batch jobs updating the tables. Since this is an impossibility with some companies, especially global companies that use a single source instance, then performing the setup when you can get the quietest time possible is your best alternative.

  • Data inconsistency: Parallel depr. area is not posted  - while doing F-90

    Dear All,
    While doing F-90 with transaction type 100  i am getting below error kidly suggest me if any thing is missing.
    Error- Data inconsistency: Parallel depr. area is not posted
              Message no. AAPO104
    Diagnosis
    For chart of depreciation 1000, you defined this area (or these areas) as parallel depreciation areas for depreciation area 01. In the current transaction, however, not all of these areas are posted. This is not allowed.
    Procedure
    Check if the transaction type is limited to certain depreciation areas. If there is such a limitation, add the missing depreciation areas for the transaction type.
    Check if the asset that is being posted manages all these depreciation areas.

  • How to stop document posting when filling setup tables for logistic app.

    Hello Boys
    I've read several threads and weblogs about data extraction from logistic applications i.e the ones which uses the infosources like 2lis_13_vditm, 2lis_02, 2lis_03, etc, etc,and now almost every thing is clear to me but one thing: how do i actually "close the system" while the process of filling setup tables i.e MC03BF0SETUP, MC03BX0SETUP, MC13VD0ITMSETUP,  are running?
    So I have some questions
    1) which is the procedure to prevent users from posting documents for an specific logistic applications (02,03, etc.) in a source system
    3) For example when using TC OLI9BW for statistical setup from billing documents (app no. 13), there is a check box "Block all billing documents?". Is this option for such pourpose?
    4) Every logistic applications has a different procedure??
    thanks (with points of course) for any help

    Hi Azael:
    Q1: usually the BW team will inform basis/secuity about the deletion and performing of setup tables. they will fix a time after the normal hours where in all users are locked out from the system. in a sense, R/3 will be down for that time.
    2. the check box which says, "block documents" is meant to block posting. for eg: you are doing setup tables late in the evening, and you assume that no user is assessing the system, but if there is a user(just by chance) who is doing some posting and when he try to save it, the system will not allow him to do save as you cheked this option.(normally we donot use this)
    3. some LO may have different procedures, for eg IM. but most of them have the same functionality.
    hope it helps.

  • Higher education cess not posted while doing migo

    Hi,
    When I do goods receipt(MIGO) higher education cess is not posted to financial accounting. I am using taxinn.
    I face same problem when i do excise invoice capturing for billing document. Balance in transaction currency.
    rang

    HI,
    There is no relation ship between your tax procedure (eg: TAXINN) and withholding tax confirguration.  Please check the does the higher education cess is getting posted or not when you post FI invoice.  If it's fine, it should post when you do MIRO.
    Withholding tax will not be posted when you do MIGO, it will be posted when you do MIRO only.
    Please use the same vendor for FI & MM invoices posting.  If still there is any issue in higher education cess posting - please check withholding tax configuration.

  • To date for document date field in setup initialization

    Hello All,
    We are filling setup table for 2LIS_02_SCL and we are giving the restriction on document date in transaction oli3bw. Since there is a very large amount of data, we are restricting the start document date by 18.06.2009.
    We would like to run regular deltas after initialization. So should we enter an end date ?
    Can we enter 31.12.9999 as the end date ?
    Please suggest  the end date for the document date selection.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Radhika

    There is no need to setup an end date on your InfoPackages because once you create and schedule the delta job for this extractor in LBWE, it will capture the deltas for you no matter the dates on the purchasing document.
    When doing your initialization on BW, don't put any selections. Just do an Init w/o Data Transfer and then do concurrent Full Repair extracts using the same selection criteria you did for the setup jobs. You'll get improved throughput by doing this, especially if you execute multiple InfoPackages, with different selection criteria, in parallel.
    Once you have your delta job scheduled, you can then execute a delta InfoPackage.

  • Accounting document while doing Post Goods Receipt

    Hi,
    The scenario is like this.
    1.     Sales order1 is created.
    2.     Delivery document created; PGI (post goods issue) is done. Here the movement type is 601.
    I want to get back the material (equipment) for some reason; I want to check the material for its condition. If there is any damage, I have to charge the customer.  So, the material will be received to Return stock by return sales order with reference to the first sales order1 (Movement type 651); then will be sent to Quality (Movement type 457); if it is not damaged will be sent to unrestricted stock (Movement type 321) by transaction code MB1B.
    When I am doing the PGI, the accounting document is created; the Inventory account is credited and COGS (Cost of goods sold) is debited.
    When I am doing PGR (Post Goods Receipt), the accounting document is not created (Movement type 651).
    I have created a new u2018Schedule line categoryu2019 (YL) for the return process with the movement type 651.
    I want to get an accounting document while doing PGR. The inventory account is to be debited; the COGS is to be credited.
    Can I get the accounting document by changing the movement type in Schedule line category u2018YLu2019?
    Please guide me in this regard.
    Regards,     
    K Bharathi

    Hi
    Can I get the accounting document by changing the movement type in
    Schedule line category u2018YLu2019?
    Yes in your schedule line category if the movement type is not 651 then an accounting doc will be created
    For movement type 651 there wont be any accounting document
    In returns (651M.Type)  If a returns delivery exists, the return should be posted in the Sales (SD-SLS) component, not in the Inventory Management component.
    Depending on how Customizing for Sales is configured (the movement type is configured in the step Define Schedule Line Category), the delivery is posted to the following stock:
    - Blocked stock returns (non-valuated, not unrestricted-use) (movement type 651)
    - Unrestricted-use stock (movement type 653)
    - Quality inspection stock (movement type 655)
    - Blocked stock (movement type 657)
    If the given quantity is posted to blocked stock returns first, you can make a manual goods movement posting in the Inventory Management component to transfer the quantity to valuated stock.
    So, when the goods arrives in so called "Block stock returns" it is not your property, it belongs to the customer (the ownership has not changed) - it is not valuated. Whiles you post the goods to your own (plant) stock by 653/655/657 it becomes your property that's why it is valuated and material document will be created

  • How can we change delivery document while doing shipment

    Hi all,
    How can we change delivery document in background while changing shipment document.My requirement is to change the netweight in delivery while doing shipment.Actually it gets blocked when we open the shipment.
    Thank You,
    Regards,

    Hi,
    if you have done the PGI(Post Goods Issue), you can't change the delivery.
    If you want to change the devlivery Qty, you should create the delivery with Partial Split (= X) and you can deliver the splitted qty with a new delivery.
