Time Char-remodelling an Infocube

Hi,
My Requirment is to include a New Time Chars (0CALMONTH2) into the Exisisting Cube with Historical Data by performing Remodelling.
Can we include a Time Char by Remodelling and fill the Data
Thanks

did you activate the cube after adding the new time chars? After activation, the new chars would append to the transformations at the bottom( last) of source fields

Adding time char to infocube

Hi,
What precautions i need to take to replace a time char with another time chat into a infocube and infocube is in production.
Thanks in advance

It's depend upon which Time Char. you are adding.
1) I assume that 0CALDAY already in the flow and you are including 0CALMONTH which is mapped to 0CALDAY then there is no impact on production data.
2) If 0CALMONTH already in the flow and you are including 0CALDAY then new data of 0CALDAY will come on date when you are included 0CALDAY production data.

Short Dump in BI 7.0,While Remodelling the Infocube

Hi Experts
I got the below short dump in BI 7.0 while remodelling infocube to add a new time char (0CALMONTH2)
Please update me what is wrong
Runtime Errors         GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED
Date and Time
Short text
Field symbol has not yet been assigned.
What happened?
Error in the ABAP Application Program
The current ABAP program "CL_RSCNV_ADD_CHAR=============CP" had to be
terminated because it has
come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Error analysis
You attempted to access an unassigned field symbol
(data segment 32776).
This error may occur if
- You address a typed field symbol before it has been set with
ASSIGN
- You address a field symbol that pointed to the line of an
internal table that was deleted
- You address a field symbol that was previously reset using
UNASSIGN or that pointed to a local field that no
longer exists
- You address a global function interface, although the
respective function module is not active - that is, is
not in the list of active calls. The list of active calls
can be taken from this short dump.
How to correct the error
If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
keywords:
"GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED" " "
"CL_RSCNV_ADD_CHAR=============CP" or "CL_RSCNV_ADD_CHAR=============CM002"
"IF_RSCNV_OPERATION~CONVERT"
If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
notification to SAP, include the following information:
1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
2. Corresponding system log
Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".
3. If the problem occurs in a problem of your own or a modified SAP
program: The source code of the program
In the editor, choose "Utilities->More
Utilities->Upload/Download->Download".
4. Details about the conditions under which the error occurred or which
actions and input led to the error.
Information on where terminated
Termination occurred in the ABAP program "CL_RSCNV_ADD_CHAR=============CP" -

Error when reading chars values when restricting time chars in Query

Hi all,
since a few days I am not able to restrict time characteristics in queries on a particular Multiporvider. I can restrict the time chars with variables but not with fixed values.
I am getting the following error:
Reading Characteristic Values -> Programm Error in class SAPMSSY1 -> Uncaught exception.
The problem exists only on one particular multi provider, but when checking the MP it indicates no errors.
Anyone experienced something similiar? I am appreciating your help.
Thomas

actually it is a problem associated with SAP GUI 7.0.
A solution to this problem is
Just replace the file wdbspres.dll with in the following location
C:\Program Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SapGui.
You can search for this file on google and download it.
we also had faced this problem earlier...but after replacing the wdbspres.dll...it worked..
i hope this helps you.
pls assign points if this answer is of some help

Business Content TIME Char on Cal Week

Hi Experts,
With regards to my requirment is there any time char avaliable in business content
similar to
0CALMONTH     Calendar Year/Month
0CALMONTH2     Calendar month
is there any time char avaliable on Calendar week
0CALWEEK     Calendar Year/Week
Thanks
Krishna

Hi there,
there aren't any other similar time characteristics and you cannot create other custom time characteristics. Nevertheless, you can create a custom characteristic and use as a reference the appropriate time characteristic (e.g., 0CALMONTH, 0CALWEEK, etc.)

Time Char issues

Dear BPS Experts,
I choose the Time char (eg Calendar year/Month) for the "Selection in Package"
and choose this as lead column, when i execute the layout , it prompt me
"Time characteristic cannot be used as an attribute". I am using the UPX_MNTN for my Planning Layout.
Does anybody know how to resolve this?
Thanks

Hi,
Please elaborate on the other characteristics that you have taken in the layout.

Time Conversion - DataSource to User Defined Time Char w/Ref

Hi, I have a Transformation into a DSO and i have created User Defined Time Char w/Ref.
ZSSDCALW     0CALWEEK     Sched Ship Yr / Week
ZSSDCALM     0CALMONTH     Sched Ship Yr / Mon
ZSSDCALM2     0CALMONTH2     Sched Ship Month
ZSSDCALY     0CALYEAR     Sched Ship Year
ZSSDCALQ     0CALQUARTER     Sched Ship Yr / Qtr
ZSSDCALQ1     0CALQUART1     Sched Ship Quarter
The source of these fields is not an InfoObject for an InfoObject to InfoObject assignment. The source of these fields is a date field zzschedate from 2LIS_11_VAITM and are currently set to direct assignment.
In the Transformation assignment only the 1st 2 new fields (ZSSDCALW and ZSSDCALM) show up with the Conversion Exit PERI6. The others do not show a conversion exit being assigned. Note: I read something about Function RST_TOBJ_TO_DERIVED_TOBJ, but not sure if this comes into the equation automatically.
Questions:
Can I directly assign the date field into all of these user-defined characteristics and conversion will automatically take place?
Or will it do it incorrectly because they are user defined date fields with reference?

I just wrote the routines in ABAP to finalize this question

Current Time of Load on Infocube available in query report

Hi Gurus,
I just want to ask if there are available method to include in the query report the most recent time and date of loading of infocube. The requirement is when extracting the bw report, it would show the last time of loading from the infoprovider, from the infocube.
Initial plan is to add a field but where exactly will be the source of the time and date of the infocube loading.
Your inputs are very much helpful.

Hi
if the endgoal is to have in the webi, it is even easier.
Just create your statitistics query in the query designer and insert it as a new query in the webi (in webi you can have more than 1 query) they run sequentially but in my cases just one 1 sec tops. So even no workbook needed.
for the statistics check : (I think i used MP 0TCT_MC01)http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c0e5ca3b-95ce-2b10-4d94-864ab29a8b63?overridelayout=t…

Dataloading taking more time from PSA to infocube through DTP

Hi All,
when i am loading data to infocube through PSA with DTP, it taking more time. Its taken already 4 days to load. Irrespective of the data the previous loads were completed in 2-3 hrs. This is the first time am facing this issue.
Note: There is a start routine written in Transformations
Plz let me know how to identify whether the code is written in global declaration or local. If so what is the procedure to correct.
Thanks,
Jack

Hi Jack,
To improve the performance of the data load, you can do the below:
1. Compress Old data
2. Delete and Rebuild Indexes
3. Read with binary search
4. Do no use LOOP withing LOOP.
5. Check sy-subrc after read etc.
Hope this helps you.

Remodeling an InfoCube in BW 3.5

Hallo experts!
What is the best way to remodel dimensions of an productive InfoCube?
What I know:
- copy InfoCube A to InfoCube B
- generate an exportDataSource on A
- load data in B from A
- delete data in A
- remodel
- generate an exportDataSource on B
- load data in A from B
Is this the best way? Any other Ideas? If I have a very large InfoCube, is it the best way to have an InfoCube as B? Wouldn't be an ODS-Object better because It maybe is faster to write in and read from a flat table?
Is it a problem if the InfoCube is compressed?
Anything else I should know?
Best Regards,
Peter

Peter
In my opinion you have the best way of doing and proceed with this model. info cube is better than ODS because you are copying data from Cube to cube so that structure will be the same.
I didn't get your compression question correctly but there won't be any issues if you copy data from existing compression cube to other cube.
Hope this helps
Thanks

Ods without time char

hi,
1. can i create an ods without time characteristic.
can anyone explain me with one such scenario.
2. i need to maintain a table in bw just for lookups in a prog.how do i maintain this.should i create an ods for this or should i use a ztable loading it via abap code.
the no . of records in this table is just 10.it gets updated every month.which is the best method.
thanks in advance.

Hi Shiva,
You can create an ODS without a Timerefference Char.
If your are in 7.0 then You can Create a Cube in the same Fasion wiht out a Timeref Char.
Comming to your exercise i suggest that you kep the data in a ODS insted in a Table.You can automate the loads to ODS by scheduling the Infopackage.
Comming to Egg:-
In our Proj we have maintained the same Data for a Curency Key's in an ODS which might change once in a Month.
And this ods table was taken as a reference for all other datas comming to other Datatargets to convert the Currency Names from Keys.
DSO :- Contains.
KEY      TXT
14          INR
01          USD
02          EUR
And the Transaction data comes as 14, 01, 02 for all the Currencies and we use this table to identify the Currency names and disply in repporting.
This Currency Key values are given by the client in a flat file.
Hope this helps you...........!!
Best Regards,
VNK.
