TO view the data source

hi ,
i have created a generic data source on a table. but now i want to view my created data source. where i can view this data source.

Hello,
Replicate the area assigned to your datasource.
When replication ends... it should be there.

Refreshing the Data Source View in Analysis Services

I have added columns to the SQL Database table that is used as a dimension in an Analysis Services Cube. The new columns will be used as additional Property Fields for the dimension. When I attempted to refresh the Data Source view so that the additional columns are present, I am given the following error:
System.Data
Property not accessible because 'Parent Columns and Child Columns don't have type-matching columns'
I have done nothing to the columns used for the parent of child and the error message provides nothing to gon on. Does anyone have any ideas on this?
Gary

Olga,
Thanks for your response. I will try and answer your questions
1) I have not tried removing the columns yet. I will try that this afternoon but have limited hope. The two columns I added are simple text columns that will be used as attributes in the dimension. I have made no change to the parent or child columns.
2) The table I modified is the source table for a parent-child dimension.
3) The reference to the "check list" does not take me to any kind of check list.
4) The parent-child dimensions I am trying to modify have been in use for months and the parent and child columns do have the dame data types.
5) I have also check the data types between the dimension table and the fact table. they use the same data types (small int).
6) I have not made a collection for the parent key, it is a single column. The remainder of your last paragraph is not clear to me. Can you give me an example.
I am fairly inexperienced with Analysis Services, please talk slow and use small words :-)
Thanks again for your help!

Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported

Hi,
I have SQL 2012 standard edition in my local. I have developed SSAS & deployed in local. I have been asked to develop power view report in excel 2013 using this SSAS. But when I tried to do in Excel 2013 professional Plus, I am getting below error:
Power view couldn't load the model or data source because the data source type is not supported.
Does power view is supported in standard edition of SQL or it requires Business/Enterprise edition of SQL server?
Thanks in advance

What type of SSAS install are you using?
PowerView in Excel 2013 currently only supports Tabular data sources.
Only PowerView in Sharepoint 2013 supports both Tabular and Multi-Dim data sources. (provided you have the required Sharepoint and SQL updates installed)

Errors in the high-level relational engine. The data source view does not contain a definition for the table or view. The Source property may not have been set.

Hi All,
I have a cube in which i'm using the TIME DIM that i created in the warehouse. But now i wanted a new measure in the cube which is Average over time and when i wanted to created the new measure i got a message that no time dim was defined, so i created a
new time dimension in the SSAS using wizard. But when i tried to process the new time dimension i'm getting the follwoing error message
"Errors in the high-level relational engine. The data source view does not contain a definition for "SSASTIMEDIM" the table or view. The Source property may not have been set."
Can anyone please tell me why i cannot create a new measure average over the time using my time dimension? Also what am i doing wrong with the SSASTIMEDIM, that i'm getting the error.
Thanks

Hi PMunshi,
According to your description, you get the above error when processing the time dimension. Right?
In this scenario, since you have updated the DSV, it should have no problem on the table existence. One possibility is that table has been specified for tracking in the notifications for proactive caching, but isn't available any more for some
reason. Please change the setting in Proactive Caching into "MOLAP".

Trying to programmatically set the data-source for a Crystal reports report.

I've got the following existing procedure that I need to add to in order to programmatically set the data-source (server, database, username, and password) for a Crystal reports report.
I added the connectionInfo parts, but can’t figure out how to attach this to the existing
this._report object.
This is currently getting the connection data from the report file, but I now need to populate this connection data from a 'config.xml' text file.
Am I trying to do this all wrong?

Unable to view the data in infoobject

Hi all,
I am loading the data to info-obj this is the first time i am working on BI 7. everything is successfull. i had created the transformation and dtp successfully n in monitor screen its showing that the data has been loaded sucessfully. the thing is i didnt maintain a infosource as i am loading the data from the only one DS to one info obj. i am able to view the data in the psa but when i try to view the data in the infoobject its not der.
plz help me out
Thank & Regards
KK

Since you are using BI 7 for the first time., I hope you have executed the DTP after executing the infopackage.
In BW 3.5 we can load date from data source to Infoobject via PSA in one shot.
But In BI 7, we have to execute the infopackage first . This loads data from Datasource to PSA. Then you need to execute the DTP. Just double click on the DTP. You can see the execute in the third tab. When you execute the DTP, data will be further loaded from PSA to Infoobject.

How do I change the Data Source? Please help

Hello Everyone,
Can anyone provide me the steps to change the extractor for a data source? Here is the situation; we have a Z data source and under data source display transaction RSA2, I see that the extraction methods is V (Transparent table or DB View) and the extractor is a Z table which we maintain in R/3 for mapping the SAP g/l accounts to Hyperion accounts. Since, we have introduced/created a new Z table in R/3 for SAP to Hyperion accounts mappings because of changes in Hyperion reporting system the BW system has no latest data/data from that is maintained in new Z table hence, it is appearing to me that once I update the data source with new Z table in the extractor will update BW with mapping information that is in the new Z table. Please let me know if I am wrong and suggest me the right way to deal with the above issue.
If updating the data source solves my problem then how do I go about doing that? Can I make the changes in R/3 production system directly or have to come through transport? Please provide me the steps to make those changes. Points will be awarded for the help.
Thanks in advance,
Kumar

Hi Ravi,
Here is what I meant for change in mapping and new mapping
1. For example R/3 account 1234 is mapped to Hyperion account ABC in old Z table and that was copied to new Z table since, we want to use that new Z table going forward but, in the new table the mapping is changed i.e., R/3 account 1234 mapped to Hyperion account XYZ
2. All new accounts created in R/3 after we started using new Z table are mapped to the Hyperion accounts only in the new Z table, meaning all the new mappings are only updated in new Z table.
Please reply.
Thanks,
Kumar

Trying to change the data source for a Crystal Report.

The method below represents my best attempt to programatically change the data source of a Crystal Report. The goal is to have a routine that will update the data source for reports after they have been distributed to production servers. So far I have not been successful in saving the report back to the CMS. No exceptions are thrown, but when I view the Database Configuration of the report in the CMC nothing has changed.


Am I missing a step, or is there another way to accomplish this?


Thank you.

Justin,

Thank you for the reply. Time constraints have not allowed me to post back to this tread
till now. I will try your suggestion. My assumption is that Save the report back to the
info store refers to IInfoStore.commit(IInfoObjects).


I'm afraid that I do not understand why I don't want to change the report client document,
or why successfully exporting the report with the new login/password is not what I
want to do. Any explanation on that statement would be appreciated.


I did find a way to accomplish my goal. It involved adding the SSOKEY property to the
logon property bag. Below you'll see my revised code which modifies the report logon and
server. I have no idea what
this does, and SAP support has not been able to tell me why it works. However, what I
discovered is that if I changed the report option, Database Configuration -> When
viewing report:, in the CMS to Use same database logon as when report
is run from Prompt the user for database logon, then the
SSOKEY property had been added to the logon property bag having an empty string as its
value. This allowed me to successfullyupdate and save the modified logon back to the CMS.


So I took a chance and added code to always add the SSOKEY property with an empty string
as its value, and I could then successfully modify and save the report's logon info
and server. Again, I don't know what this means, but it has worked so far. If anyone has
some insight or comments, either are welcome. Thank you in advance.

Adding field GAMNG ( Target Quantity )in the Data Source 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL

We are adding field GAMNG ( Target Quantity ) in the Data Source 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL ( Work Center View from PP/PP-PI )
The field GAMNG is available in the communication structure maintainace.
The problem is- We are not able to drag & drap field GAMNG from the Communication structure LBWE. Getting the error - End phase 002 ***********************************************************
Message no. D0322 ..
We deleted Setup table , Meins field already exist in comm str.
1. How we able to drag the field from the communication structure as getting the above error. We searched SDN & try to follow that method but not working.
2. We can add the field in SE11 - Structure -Manually, then we have to write ABAP code.
Kindly suggest correct answer.
Edited by: sk kamaruzzaman on Dec 20, 2011 2:08 PM

Hi,
There could be a number of reasons why you are getting the error:
1. Fields are not assigned to datatypes.
- Check structure in SE11 and assign to datatypes.
2. There are inactive appends in the extract structure.
- Double-click one of the includes. You will get a new screen with the INCLUDE structure. Click the button append-structure. Check if the append is inactive.
3. The appended structure is in a different development class from the one of the structure it is being appended to.
Please review and apply the following notes carefully :
766603 Activation problems with extract structures
623411 LBWE: Gener. terminates with D0 322 (end phase 002)
757923 LBWE: Generation terminates with D0 322 (end phase
600708 D0 322: End phase 002
It is not possible to enhance the datasource 2lis_04_MATNR with the field GAMNG (so its possible that its the same for 2LIS_04_P_ARBPL) because GAMNG has the reference field AMEIN, which has a STATE F (forbidden) in table TMCEXCFS .
Check to see if this is the same on your system.

Can we change the Data source in AO ?

Hi Folks,
Environment: SAP HANA on AO
I have the following scenario , Am creating a report on one Calculation View: CV and have done some analysis where I have pulled in some dimensions and kept some background filters.
Now I have to generate the same report on another Calculation View: CV2 ( Similar to structure of CV ) and compare the reports. Is there any way to edit copy the previous report and change the data source? Can you guide me on that?
Regards,
Krishna Tangudu

Hi,
You can exchange the calc view by clicking on the button next to the data source name in the tab "components", but when you do this, the new data source will overwrite the settings and filters from the previous data source. So no, there is not a supported way of exchanging the datasource and keeping the filters of the previous data source.
Best regards,
Victor

Problem in activating the data source using a web service

Activated the created web service.
Later i tried creating a data source based on this web service source system and tried activating the data sources.
But it is throwing an error saying that error generating the Web Service /BIC/CQWEB_SER_000020000 and error while activating the data source.
Can any one say why is this happening and is there any pre requisites to be done while creating the web service?
what is the use of Type and Release while creating the webservice?

Changing the Data source in Business Objects XI

Hi,
Is it possible to change the data source(not universe) in runtime to generate business objects reports. I am using BOXI 3.1.
Below is the code I am using to change the universe in runtime. I would like to change this so that i can change the data source instead of changing the universe. My intention is to generate report from multipple database using same universe. Right now I am using multipple universes connected to multiple datasources to achieve this. I am using Report Engine SDK(Java).
 if("Webi".equals(mDocKind))
 // Added for multiple database support
 DataProviders dataProvs = documentInstance.getDataProviders();
 try{
 //To support multiple queries in BO reports
 for(int count=0;count<dataProvs.getCount(); count++){
 DataProvider dp=dataProvs.getItem(count);
 DataSource ds= dp.getDataSource();
 infoUniverseObjects = getUniverseObject(infoStore,NewUniverseName);
 infoUniverseObject = (IInfoObject)infoUniverseObjects.get(0);
 String newDsCuid = infoUniverseObject.getCUID();
 dataProvs.changeDataSource(ds.getID(), "UnivCUID=" + newDsCuid, true);
 if(dataProvs.mustFillChangeDataSourceMapping())
 // Re-map data source to target Universe objects
 ChangeDataSourceMapping mapping = dataProvs.getChangeDataSourceMapping();
 ChangeDataSourceObjectMapping[] maps = mapping.getAllMappings();
 dataProvs.setChangeDataSourceMapping();
 }//for dataProvs.getCount()
 }catch(Exception e)
 mLogger.info("BOReportObject","createReport","Inside multiple data providers loop"+e.getMessage());
Thanks in advance

Edited by: Shameertaj on May 20, 2009 3:08 AM

Hi Shameer,
I think this is only possible with the Universe Designer SDK (which is only available in COM).
Please kindly refer to the API reference for the Universe Designer SDK for more details:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/bodessdk.chm
Also, please note that changing the universe connection when viewing a document on-demand is not recommended because this could lead to possible issues.
For example:
Two users trying to view documents that uses the same universe at approximately the same time.
But user A wants to use connection X and user B wants to use connection Y.
This could lead to an error while openning the document or while refreshing/retrieving the the data.
Hope this helps.

Dan

Data View and Data Source buttons Greyed out

I have Site Admin permissions on an On Prem SharePoint 2013 site.
In SharePoint Designer 2013 the Data View and Data Source buttons are greyed out.
Can anyone shed some light as to why this is occurring?

Hi grantzre,
Could you provide a screenshot about the location you want to insert the Data View web part and Data Source?
I think you may put the mouse cursor in the incorrect place to add the data view web part, please try putting the cursor before the tag </ZoneTemplate> and see if "Data View" button is enabled, then you can insert an empty
dataview web part and then insert the data source in tag <DataSources> by clicking ribbon button "Data Source" (also click the ribbon button "Parse HTML" of the page if needed).
