To modify or not to modify standard business content
There is a debate going on in my company about whether or not to modify the SBC cubes. One suggestion is if it is necessary to modify them, copy them to create a custom cube and modify that, keeping the SBC in tact for future reference or use (recommended R/3 practice) and others say that doesn't make sense, just modify the SBC cubes-stay away form creating custom cubes.
Is there a strong opinion out there to do one or the other?
Anurag,
just some point to your answer...
If reporting and analytical capability that Lisa needs to achieve is available totally only through SBC std scenario, this question is out of scope!
Then,
1.
"if you copy the SBC and create your own cubes and other objects it is as good as creating a new datawarehouse"
What does it mean ?!
First of all, she has to copy only the cube and nothing else (surely not the std objects contained into it!).
Your sentence is valid if related to infosources (and, generally speacking, to extraction-side objects), but not for cube (copying the std to have a custom one to adjust it to specific needs is a common activity).
2.
If in the future SAP comes out with some new version of the same std cube, you have to pay attention to avoid that the new delivered version overwrites the custom one ! It's exactly the opposite !
3.
Upgrade to future release is easier, but what about different requirements that the std content doesn't fit ?
Bye,
Roberto

Standard business content not extarcting all data
Hello,
I am currently rolling out QN data. The standard business content for 2lis_05Q0task includes FECOD FEGRP & OTEIL (from table QMFE) fields however the data is not being pulled. All the other data is coming in ok. Is there something I need to do to get this data?
Thanks For your help
MireilleHi,
Pls Check in QMFE table if the data is present for these fields.
Take the notification no from the RSA3 extraction and
look for it in the QMFE table.

Standard Business Content Queries not found
Hi all
As i was installing the business content queries for the CRM Analytics, I have found all the Queires except two queries. When checked in the SAP Help portal i can see these two queries as newly added to the list. But they are not available in the Business Content queries list.
I am working on BW 3.5 and queries which i didnt find are
0MKTG_C01_Q7001 and 0CSAL_C12_Q002
Any help is greatly appreciated.
regards
vijaykumarhello vijay,
for each patch level of each BW version I believe a supporting OSS note is released.Please search in OSS notes stating as 'BW 3.5 patch level XY' or raise an OSS message witb this query.
In the help page for the new BC queries,does it state any detail about the required version/patch of BW?
Usually systems are kept 1-2 patch levels behind the latest SAP released patch level.
My system is at 3.5 patch 17.
I would suggest u bring system atleast to 16 or 17 as 10 is quite old patch level.
cheers,

Am I missing something here, please giude me through.

Ravi.Hello,
Crystal Reports I don't believe has anything like that, we have sample reports but not likely what you are looking for.
You should post your question to the B1 forum.

Standard Business Contents with CLASSIFICATION data
Dear All
Does standard Business contents Material, Vendor and Customer carry CLASSIFICATION DATA.
Looking at the Field Mapping for Material and Vendor I dont see any CLASSIFICATION related fields.
What would be the best option..
Regards
VickeyHi Vickey,
Minaz is right. Customer and Vendor do not contain classification info. The current Material contains the eClass and UNSPC classification. The next release for the material will cover the common ERP classification (CLFMAS), too. This is currently in development, planned release is May 2009.
Best regards

Rejected Orders in Standard Business Content 2LIS_13_VAITM to 0SD_C03
Hello Folks,
My (new) employer has implemented standard business content for SD (VAHDR, ITM, etc.), and we are trying to reconciile data to ECC.
We are running Netweaver 2004s (BI 7.0) with very recent ECC.
It seems that 'rejected orders' still reflect the original 'incoming orders value' in ZSD_C03_Q009 Query.
I can see the rejected reason in PSA, InfoSource, and transfer structure, but not shown in Update Rules from InfoSource to 0SD_C03.
I would have thought that this is standard functionality in SAP, and doesn't require any 'enhancements' to deal with it. Howeveer, if enhancements are required, has anyone done this, and how do you deal with rejects that happen in a different period from the order creation?
Am I just missing something in standard business content?
Many Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
Regards,
Martin.Hi,
Please check the record mode in the DSO for those records.
Please check the OSS :
