To enable delta in generic data source

Hi,
There is a generic datasource created on top of PRPS & RPSCO tables. Currently the extraction mode is 'full update'.
There is no time stamp field available in RPSCO, Please suggest how can I enable delta?

Hi
Make sure at least you have Numeric pointer or time stamp field in your table to make the data source enable.
If you created view on these two tables, then in RSA6 --> open the data source --> goto edit mode.
here you will delta enable check box --> select this check and you can give the field which has to be used for delta.
If you using FM, then you have to write to code in functional module.

Error while doing DELTA Extraction (generic data source)

Hi BW Experts,
In my R/3, I have a generic data source ZBUT_VW.
It receives data from a View which is created based on couple tables.
When I do full load to the corresponding ODS, it is successful.
But after that I delete the ODS and created CUBE with DELTA
I have Initialized delta.
When I do DELTA extraction, it fails.
The error The ALE inbox of the SAP BW is identical to the ALE outbox of the source system
and/or
the maximum wait time for this request has not yet run out
and/or
the batch job in the source system has not yet ended.
I delete the initialization load and trying to do DELTA extraction again and it Fails.
With the same error
Please let me know how can I resolve this problem.
URGENT
gaurav

I dont think it is possible to have to additive delta with creation date.
Try a full load to cube to check if the extractor is working.

Delta for Generic data source.

Hi,
I have created a generic data source for which I have taken the change data as generic delta in CRM4.0. But the problem is delta is not getting initiated. like we are not getting any records in delta. Kindly guide me what else i have to do to get this delta
Thanks
Naveen

Hello Naveen,
What is the delta method you have used, is it Time stamp or ALE Pointer?
See this SAP Note 539547 Generic delta with date does not work

Generic data source delta settings

HI
i have to create delta for Generic data source based on 2 fields like "created on" and "changed on" fields.
how to set this
try avoid numeric point & Whit out using function module
and what is the safety interwell (Please use simple words)

Hai Sudha,
Safety inteval is nothing but for ex you have updated your data from R/3 to bw at 11 am If client want the data in between 11.1min to 11.4min the records which are going to present in between the 1 min to 4 min that records only can updated if and ony if your data source is going to make as an generic delta.

How to enable the Delta for the data source 0CO_OM_OPA_7

Hi Experts,
I have a business content data source 0CO_OM_OPA_7 and I need to activate and enable Delta for this data source.
This data source is activated (but not delta enabled) and used for full load in my system for the past three year. As this is a full load this data source is carrying more than 4 million records every day with adding 2 millions records every year. The load takes every day 4 to 5 hours for completion.
Now I need to enable the delta for this data source. To enable the delta for this data source I used the transaction RSA5 and clicked on the 'Activate DataSources' but the data source is not enabled the 'Delta'
I have also checked in the RSA6 transaction, the check box for 'Delta' is not checked for this data source.
Can anybody help in enabling the 'Delta' for this data source.
Thanks in Advance
Narendra

Hi,
DS "0CO_OM_OPA_7" won't support deltas, so load to ODS then to Cube. Else delete the overlaping request then load this you can set in InfoPackage level.
You check any Period/Month fields in 0CO_OM_OPA_7 then write simple routine in Infopackage and the set the overlaping deletion.
Use the followng code and change it for your requirement in Infopackage level.
I'm using 0CO_PC_01 DataSource, so it won't have delta so I'm using the following code in InfoPackageag and set delete overlaping req. So eveyday it will delete the old req for that period and then it will load data againg for that period (Full loads).
DATA: l_idx LIKE sy-tabix,
        zzdate LIKE sy-datum,
        zzbuper LIKE t009b-poper,
        zzbdatj LIKE t009b-bdatj,

How to enable delta in a generic Data Source

Hi,
   I am developing a Generic Data Source (Z) based on a view.
   How can i enable it to delta capable...
   What is the concept of Calanderday......timestamp....pointer
   How can i make a decesion (what factors do i need to consider) to go for Calanderday......timestamp....pointer
Please provide me detail steps & description on this as this is my first data source
Thanks

1. Time stamp - The field is a DEC15 field which always contains the time stamp of the last change to a record in the local time format.
2. Calendar day - The field is a DATS8 field which always contains the day of the last change.
3. Numerical pointer - The field contains another numerical pointer that appears with each new record

Delta field not enabled for selection in generic data source

Hi
I have created a generic data source for the table VBFA....and for the delta pick up i have put the delta option as CALDAY on the field ERDAT...and i have selected that field for the selection option. but after i made it delta enabled the selection option got disabled.
Now when i check the info package delta selection tab that date column is not apperaing.
But when i have to run the info package for the first i dont want all the data as it has a huge set of data.
I wanted to take only this months data.
So is there any option to be set to enable this selection in info package.
please suggest.
Regards
Shilpa

Hi there,
That's the stardard behaviour. If you use delta based om ERDAT, that field won't be available for selecting.
You could for example try to build a view over VBFA, and let the field ERDAT there and another field, for example ZERDAT (that is just another alias for ERDAT). Create the delta based onyour view over the field (ERDAT), but you can still control the restrictions over the extractore with your ZERDAT.
I don't know if this is possible, this is only an assumption.
Another option could be first to create an extractor based on the table VBFA but without delta, that field ERDAT would be available. Do your full data restricting it, and after that, change your datasource to use deltas based on ERDAT. It will be unavailable than, but since you've already loaded previous full data, you could than use your delta like it is. But here, remember, your deltas will bring new and change data based on ERDAT. If it brings delta based on changed data over ERDAT to a record that you didn't brought over your full (only some data), it will be incorrect records.
Also just an assumption, did not try it.

Delta Enabled Generic Data Source

Hi All,
I have created one Delta Enabled Generic Data Source with
Function Module. The Delta field is Date Field. The Data source picks data from R3 to BW.
In RSA3, I executed the Extractor with the Delta Type "C" i.e Delta Initialization ... but it is throwing the error "Errors occured during the extraction". I also checked the Display Log and the error message is "Could not determine BW release of logical system".
Moreover I am not able to see the Delta Attributes in
RSA7. I checked with the other delta enabled generic extractors which uses Views .. is found to be working fine ... and I also able to see the Delta Attributes in RSA7.
Any suggestions?
Bye
Dinesh

Dinesh,
Once you have generated transfer rules in BW for the datasource, delta init can be tried out in RSA3. It iwll not create the delta queue though. Only test the initialization.
To do this, once you have created the transfer rules in BW, specify the logical system name of the BW system in the target system field. After that the extractor can be run in RSA3. It is flagged as read only so delta queue will not get created.
Cheers
Aneesh

BW Master data delta generic data source for further update in BW

Hi BWers,
I am looking for an option to load delta from Master data to another master data within BW. Export data source option for master data only has full load option but no delta update possible.
I tried creating generic data source delta enabled on view of master data (/BI/M). But the problem I am facing now is master data contains quantity field as attribute and this field refers another table RSDKYF for unit. To be able to create data source on view / table no field should refer field in another table.
Did anybody create delta for master data for further loading within BW or came across similar issue with key figures, please let me know the best procedure in this scenario? Appreciate your quick response.
Regards,
Madhav

In your master data attribute have a date field which will be filled by the R/3 load as sy-datum - then create an export datasource and in the infopackage - give a selectoion for the date field as sy-datum and sy-datum -1..
Not exactly a delta but then usually master data is not kept as delta because the volumes are usually less - you can achieve delta by this method...

Generic Data Source delta is not extracted

Hi,
There is a problem in extracting the delta records using Generic Data Source. Delta records ( New / Modified records ) are not posted in the RSA7.
I'll Explain you the Scenario I have done. Created a generic data source in R/3 using view. In the view there is a field Sales Order No. I have enabled the delta update for this field. In the generic delta i have chosen delta type as Numeric pointer.
Extracted the entire record using full update and after initializing the Delta, it extracts the delta record well ie. it only extracts the sequence of Sale Order No. First I extracted nine records(i.e 10001 to 10009) using full update. again I entered a record in underlying table with sale order no as 10011-10013. It extracts those records into BW system. Then again I made an entry in the table with sales order no 10010. But the record is not extracted. Even though I tried of specifying safety lower limit as -3. Still it not extracting the record(10010).
And what if I posted a value of sale order 10014 with the same. what should I do?? Help on this plz.
--Durai.S

Hi SVS,
Thanks for your reply.
I followed this in my scenario. But I don't understand why it is not extracting? even I specified the safety limit of upper and lower values in the generic delta.
Here the below explanation shows that the delta record can be extracted even if the pointer value is greater than the posted value.
Numeric pointer (last extracted value 10011; Data in underlying table (Max value = 10025) )
Data would be extracted from a min-value of 10010 (lower limit adjusts the last counter 10011 by specified value u2013 1)
max-value of 10020 (after adjustment for upper safety limit u2013 by 5). The current pointer would now indicate 10020 in
RSA7.

Delta On CALDAY Filed for Generic Data Source

Hi,
I have enabled delta option on CALDAY Field for Generic Data Source.
I thought of giving Safety Interval for Upper Limit as 1 and Safety Interval for Upper Limit as ZERO.Would you please advise me on this, This fetches all delta data?.
Would you please advise me on this.
Thanks and Regards,
K.Krishna Chaitanya.

Hi Krishna,
If your delta enabled field is Date then try this,
Safety Interval Upper Limit Calend. Days
Safety Interval Lower Limit 1 Calend. Days
Then test your delta, will get good result.
I created 4 GDS with this safety interval and working fine for me.

Delta Option for Generic Data Source

Hi ,
My requirement is Delta Option for Generic Data Source. This Data Source is getting Extracted from Function Module.
For this requirement I have followed below steps.
1) Added the Field (On which Delta gets enabled) to the extract structure by using Append Structure
2) Enabled Delta On this Filed.
3) If I try to save the Data Source, I have gone to a screen where I am able to see 4 coloumns
a) Selection
b) Hide Field
c) Inversion
d) Filed Only known in User Exit.
By default Hide Field and Filed Only known in User Exit check boxes have been checked.
Would you please tell what is the use of Filled Only known in User Exit check biox.
As My data source is getting the data buy using the Function Module, Shall I uncheck this Check Box.
Thanks and Regards,
K.Krishna Chaitanya.

Hi Krishna,
The "FIELD" should be checked if we write any enhancement in CMOD, so that system can identify that this particular field has enhancement written to it,
But even in real time systems i usually find that even though we check the "FIELD" or not , there is no effect .
So Checking "FIELD" or not will not impose any isses .

Krishna

Delta method preferable for generic data source

Hi All,
I'm working on APOBW ,i need to pull primary sale data into apobw .So ABAP er created a program to pick the data from tables vbrp,vbrk,knvv,mara,marc,t179 and populating into a transparent table.I have created a generic data source using that ztable and then loading data to infocube in APOBW.I need to pull data daily twice.I have fields data and time in the Z table.
Please suggest me how to pull the delta data and let me know if DSO is needed in between before loading to Infocube.
Thanks.

Hi,
For Enabling Delta, while creating the Generic Datasource you have an option of Enabling it to be Delta capable. Select Generic delta at the top and then you would see 3 options of how you want to get your delta records.
It is based on
1) Timestamp
2) Numeric Pointer
3) Calendar Day
Depending what you have in your Table, you can select on what your delta would be based.
