UDA and Attribute rules

hi,
I am in the process of updating my essbase outline using load rules. I have succesfully loaded my first rule which maps the Hierarchy, however I am unable to load the Attribute and UDA properties into the outline.
Does anyone have any suggestions or know the steps on how to do this?
Thanks,

This is already discussed in the forum. please go through the below threads.

UDA and Attribute

Dears,
Appreciate your help if anybody can explain what are the difference between UDA and attribute dimensions in planning ?
Highlighting the Aggregation,sparse and Dense dimensions, and which ones can be refrenced in the data forms ?
Please note that i am working on version 11.1.2
Thanks in advance

does the documentation not provide enough information
UDA - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hp_admin/uda_tab.html
Attribute - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hp_admin/attr_man.html
This post will also be helpful :- how can we decide to assign a attribute or UDA to a member

UDA Defination in Rule file

 I am trying to create a Rule file to build my Dimensions. TheDimensions get built up properly without any issues as long as I donot have any UDA's defined in it. My dimension build data file is as follows which is ~delimited:2006~Nov-06~28-Nov-2006~D45~Tue~Business~DA38988~AAAAANow in the above file first 3 fields are of the time dimension.D45 is the UDA for 28-Nov-2006 and Tue is the attribute filed of28-Nov-2006 My rule file definition is as followsGen2,Time Gen3,Time Gen4,Time UDA4,Time WeekDays4,Time Gen2,User Gen3,User Alias3,UsersAs you can see I have defined the Rule file using Generationproperties Now when I am trying to build the Dimensions using the abovefile it gives the following error message Object [Test] is already locked by user [XXXXXX] Building Dimensions Elapsed Time : [0.79] seconds There were errors, look inC:\Hyperion\AdminServices\client\dataload.err Reading Parameters For Database [Drxxxxxx] Reading Outline Transactions For Database [Test] Declared Dimension Sizes = [4 5 11 3 2 ] Actual Dimension Sizes = [3 3 11 3 1 ] Allocated TRIGMAXMEMSIZE: [4096] Bytes.

Is it like I cannothave a UDA and an Attribute for one member i.e. in this case28-Nov-2006. ThanksSSSS54

As an added comment to the previous poster, you might want both "Allow Property Changes" and "Allow Association Changes" so that both UDAs and Attributes can be successfully updated. If your Essbase version contains the option, you will also need to check the "Allow UDA Changes" option which only becomes enabled if property changes are first enabled. As for your question regarding Declared vs. Actual dimension sizes: A "Declared Dimension Size" is a count of the total number of members in the dimension. An "Actual Dimension Size" is the same, but less the Dynamic Calc, Shared and Label Only members. The numbers you see are simply a list of the declared or actual sizes of each dimension in order.

How to test the UDA or Attribute of an ancestor member

Hi everybody !I would like to know how to test the UDA or attribute (I can use both) of the ancestor (or the parent of the parent) of the current member please ?(the current member is on level 0 et the ancestor is on level 2).I tryed some syntax but any result :(Thanks very much for your help... JaspePS : Sorry for my "bad" english, i'm french...

You can try using this IF conditional statement:if (@count (skipnone, (@uda (dimName, myUDA) and @ancest (@currmbr (dimName), -2))) == 1)where:dimName is the dimension of the level 0 member you are testingmyUDA is the UDA you are testingWhat this does is it counts the number of members that meet two criteria. First, it must have the UDA you specify and, second, it must be an ancestor of the current member at a specified level.If the current member has a level 2 ancestor with the UDA, it should return one member.

CRMD_BUS2000108 - organizational unit and attributes for org. unit

Hi all!
As I'm customizing Lead creation (and in a second step lead generation)
I would like to receive tips about "selection of organizational unit and attributes for org. unit".
I expected that, by entering a BP number of a prospect or sold-to party, the organizational unit and its attributes would be displayed automatically on the tab "organization".
This is not the case. When I start the lead creation, there is a pop-up screen inviting me to choose the organizational unit. afterwards a pop-up screen for the attributes of the org unit. Only after setting a flag in both pop-ups, I see the actual "lead" transaction. When I enter a BP number, the sales assistant and sales rep are found automatically.
Could anybody please explain how to change the customizing?
I would like to see the lead transaction (create) first, enter a bp number and than have the org unit and its attributes, the sales rep and sales assistant found automatically.
Any usefull answer (would make my day ), will be rewarded.
Thank you very much for your suggestions and time in advance!
I. Van Acker

hi
this is happening because you have not done the org data determination in your transaction,just go to SPRO and there in org data determination ,you have many standard ORGMAN rules available which you can use which will pick the data according to the user ,BPs etc.
it will enable you to first give BP and then the org data will be driven automatically from the system according to the rule in org data determination.
so first go and use rule ,try using rule ORGMAN_12
then attach this rule to the org data profile and then add this org data profile to the transaction in basic settings in transaction where you have defined your lead transaction.
it will solve your purpose

Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules//LSMW

Hello Friends,
I want to add new fields in the step.no.5(Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules).
Indetail i'm going to upload the GL balances, for DR and CR line item fields are same so system is not accepting the same field value, so i have added 1 for the CR line item fields like in the below example.
BSEG-WRBTR(Dr line item)
BSEG-WRBTR1(Cr line item)
but BSEG-WRBTR1(Cr line item) field not displaying in the step.no.5 to mapping to source field.
please let me know the solution for this.
thanks
swapna.

Hi,
I would like to ask few questions.
1. Are you using batch input recording or using any program for uploading. (through LSMW)
2. Whether all your debit or credit line items are same every transactions. I believe they should be same, because you are uploading the balances.
You should not have two similar fields for example, if it is WMBTR, then again WMBTR should not be there, it should WMBTR1 and WMBTR2. Make sure you have done the field mapping properly. When you have done the field mapping all the fileds must have been mapped. If any one of the fields are not mapped, then it will not be uploaded.
Please see the following LSMW sample guide:
http://www.scmexpertonline.com/downloads/SCM_LSMW_StepsOnWeb.doc
Maintain Object Attributes Do the recording - Make sure that you do not have two fields with the similar name. If you have two fields with the same name double click on the field name and add1 or 2 to differentiate between field names. Just Copy those fields and descriptions in excel sheet, delete the blank lines, then in excel data => text to columns, your field names and descriptions will be now in two columns. Copy them, then put your cursor on the next sheet, then edit => Paste Special => Transpose, all the columns will become your rows. Now your file structure is ready. Maintain Source Structures Give some unique structure name and description Maintain Source Fields Here you add the fields that are being used in EXCEL first sheet, just copy them and make all the fields as C (Constant) and then give length of 60 for all fields. Maintain Structure Relations Though structure relations are already created just go to this step, click on edit, then click on create structure relation, just accept the message stating that the structure relation has already been created. Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules Do the field mapping for all the fields, all the fields willl be stretched and you will see five rows against each row. In case if there is any row that has NOT stretched means, there is something wrong in the mapping. Maintain Fixed Values, Translations, User-Defined Routines There is nothing to be done at this step. You can simply ignore this. Specify Files Make you must have saved your excel file as .txt (before saving make sure you have copied data from sheet2 to sheet 3 and then sheet 3 is saved at tab delimited file. Text (Tab delimited) Select your file, make SURE that you have select "TABULATOR" radio button and say OK. Assign Files Go to this step and click on Create assignment button and accept the message and say ok. Read Data Remove two check boxes and just click on execute button. See the log. Make sure you have number of entries (lines) in your excel file are matching with this. Display Read Data Display data give 1 to 999 lines and double click on one of the line and see whether fields are mapped correctly are not. Convert Data Execute and see the log match the number of entries. Display Converted Data Display converted data, give 1 to 999 and double click on one of the line and see whether fields are mapped correctly or not. Create Batch Input Session Check on Keep Batch Input sessions check box, then execute. If you select that check box, even after execution it will be there and you can analyze what happened. Run Batch Input Session (Takes you to SM35) Go to SM35 select the batch and click on process button (execute), make sure you have checked right hand side first three check boxes and FOREGROUND (because you want to save what it is creating) Say OK Keep on press ENTER on your key board in order to move the session further. If you follow these steps along with the guide, surely you should be successful. There may be small difference between the file and what I have explained but ultimately the purpose is same. Hope this is useful and let me know in case if you have any issues.
Regards, Ravi

Re: Error in LSMW Field Mapping and Conversion Rules

2. I have assigned the fields in recording too.
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance
vivek

hi ram,
I think u have gone wrong in the first step itself............
Do like this,
1) Goto Maintain Object Attributes
2) Select Batch Input Recording and Enter Ur recording Name
3) Then Select Recording Overview...
4) Thne Press DEFAULT ALL on ur Application Toolbar or Select EDIT-> DEFAULT ALL
5) All ur Source Fields will be mapped for Recording Fields......
6) Now u can see ur Fields in Field Mapping and Conversion Step......
I hope this will work u r doing with BATCH INPUT METHOD...
Reward me if useful.......

Join and Project Rules & Sync Rules?

hi,
We are using declarative provisioning to provision data to various target systems. Data is imported from the HR source database. However, on the HR MA, we don't have any Join or Projection Rules. If we are using declarative provisioning, do we still need
Join and Projection Rules on the MA itself?
The reason I ask is that we are getting the following errors on a Full Sync of the HR MA...and I wonder if this error would disappear if we had a Join rule in the MA:
sync-rule-flow-provisioning-failed
Microsoft.MetadirectoryServices.ProvisioningBySyncRuleException: An object with DN "kbob001" already exists in management agent "XYZ MA".
thank,
sk

When you project the object into the metaverse (from HR MA), your object match the declarative rule in of your synchronization rule and FIM try to provision the object in "XYZ MA" and it's failed because you have already an object with the same anchor "DN=kbob001".
One way to resolve this is to do a two step synchronization, the first for the projection and the second for the provisioning. You can achieve that by change your declarative rule. Once the object is projected, you can try to join it from "XYZ MA" before applying
the declarative rule.
For example, the declarative rule could be an attribute calculated in FIM Portal, like "IsPresentInFIM=True"

SAPKW70016 bugs with reference characteristics and attributes

Hi, experts!
I have very big problem.
When we've imported SAP BW SP 16 somthing went wrong as of reference characteristic and attributes.
1) If InfoSet contains reference characteristic, it can't be activated. (Error message RSO404)
2) If transformation rule is "read master data" and source characteristic contain compounded characteristic wiht same attribute as target field, and componded characteristic is above lexicographical then source characteristic. When you save this transformation this source field is removed from transformation rules? transformation can't be activated!!!
3) When you use in compounded characteristics which are reference characteristic and you want to use this source characteristic in rule "read master data" you'll get dump.
Now about reason and trials to resolve this problems.
2) The reason is incorrect sorting and reading internal tables with characters in source fields in transformation with attribute target field. Problem is resolved with using rule "ABAP", FM "RSAU_READ_MASTER_DATA".
3) and 1) The reason is program look for name REFERENCE character in table in field BASE characteristics names. Problem was resolved only fo happen 3) with disable "better" functionality "lookup_master_data" (note 1092539).
Problem 1) is still open...
What can I do?
Thanks for all replies!

Master Data Text and Attributes

Guys,
I read some posts on sdn regarding differences between master data texts and attributes and now I am a little confused. I thought attributes define a char. then what does text do? Does it not define or describe the char as well? If both are doing the same thing then why do we need both ? I am not sure if my understanding is correct. Please help me.
Thanks,
RG

Hi Ram,
To understand in a better way little bit of R/3 work would have been helpful.
In R/3 Every entity has master data maintained like customer, material, plant etc.
If you would see a customer in R/3 you can see it has lots of information..like address,telephone number,street company name, etc.
And along with it we have customer name...i.e. description..(text)
Now in R/3...text tables are generally maintained separately then master data tables...it can be together as well.
Something like for you Ram Goswami is descrption(text) for the user ID XXXXXXX in SDN.
Email ID and company name is the master data stored here for him.
BW has used the same modelling concept to keep the text table separate from the msater data table.
It creates to separate data target for master data and text so that two seperate tables can be maintained in BW and you have to load the data in both to see the master as well as text.
Since we have separate master data table and text table in R/3 therefore we have separate data sources as well based on them.
You would like to have you master data table exactly as the master data table of R/3 so you will add attributes in the infoobject 0customer and it will create a P table for 0customer...keep adding attributes to make the columns in the table and to make the exact copy of R/3 table i.e. to bring all the information from R/3 about customer master you add attributes in the 0customer.The data soiurce based on this table in R/3 will contain the fields from the table.
Now you do the mappings with fields between infoobject and data source and load the data ...so master data is loaded.
For text...once you check the text option in infoobject..SAP creates a new table Tcustomer in the background..
Now you have to do the mappings for this as well through the data source based on the text table in R/3.
In some cases the master data table contains text as well and in that case you use the same data source based on this table to create two separate update rules one for master data object and another one for text object and do the mappings accordingly.
In this case you schedule the load to both the target at the same time and data gets loaded.
but for different data sources you will have to schedule the load separately.
Once data loaded for this...now you can use it in the report and see the text as well as master data attributes in the reports and there values.
I hope that was more then enough
Thanks
Ajeet

Co-rellation rule and confirmation Rule

Hi All
Can you please explain me the corelation and confirmation rules???? if possible please write some code for that??
Thanks

Hi,
A correlation rule only the Active Sync attributes for each event.
A sample rule is
 <list>
 <new class='com.waveset.object.AttributeCondition'>
 <s>employeeId</s>
 <s>equals</s>
 <ref>account.badge</ref>
 </new>
 </list>A confirmation rule uses the full view of an IDM user. As a result it is more costly to use.

Open Interface for Approved Supplier Lists and Sourcing Rules

Is there an open interface or an API available for Appeoved Supplier Lists and Sourcing Rules.
Thanks and Regards,
MPH

Hi sandeep,
I prefer to use the API mentioned.
However this is in Oracle Manufactirung and we dont use that module instead I want to define them in Oracle Purchasing.
can I still do it in Purchasing using the same API.
Further as per the document there are 3 entities
01) Sourcing Rule/Bill of Distribution
02) Receiving Organization
03) Shipping Organization
Do I need to define all 3 in order to make it work?

Mail - Forwarding attachments manually and with rules - how do I keep my attachments?

I have the latest updates of Lion on by MacBookPro (late 2010 model). I use mail to receive mail from my business account (Exchange account) and my personal account (IMAP account). Up until this summer, everything was working peachy with the system. I have multiple folders in my accounts and many rules to sort the mail and some that automatically forward mail messages to other people in my office who are also on exchange server.
Since this summer, we really noticed in August, we have noticed that the attachements are sometimes missing from emails I send out either automatically through rules (attachements never appear in the emails on the receiver's end) or manually, sometimes they receive, sometimes they don't (most of the times, but not always, when they don't work, it is a pdf in attachement, although it has happened on occasion with docs and jpgs or other graphics files). The bizarre thing is that on occasion a receiver replies to my email telling me there is no attachement, and although the email I receive doesn't show a paperclip, the attachament is actually embedded in the email!
If I write a new mail, and manually add an attachement, it seems to work.
My IT guy, who runs the exchange server says that it is bizarre because he can see the attachement in my email, but when it is delivered it disappears, but if he opens it at the server, it reappears. He has made all the latest updates and has trolled the support sites, but has found no solution.
I receive a newsletter everyday, which is a rather large 8-10 Mb pdf. My rule tells it to automatically forward to the receptionnist so that she can send it out to her mailing list. The message I receive always has the attachment, but in the forwarded message the attachment dissappears. In this case, when I look at message in my sent mail folder - there is no attachment. I tried using re-direct instead of forward as a rule and it still did the same thing...
I guess I want to know if anyone is experiencing the same issue, and if anyone has any other solutions to make forwarding work better.
P.S. When I use the IMAP account, the forwarding doesn't seem to be a problem, however I can't figure out how I could run a rule for an email I receive on my exchange account so that it forwards via my IMAP account. Also this would not be ideal, as then all my business contacts would get mail from my personal account...
Thanks for any help you could provide.

But you'll still have to navigate around the icon.

Error in Asset Accounting Specify Intervals and Postings Rules

Hi,
I am configuring for Asset Accounting and when I go to this part:
Asset Accounting > Integration with the General Ledger > Post Depreciation to the General Ledger > Specify Intervals and Postings Rules
I get the error "Company code XXXX is not defined" (message no. AC519).
The company code specified in the error was deleted in the system before. I am thinking that there is a table where this company code is not yet deleted. How can I solve this? Thanks a lot.

Create the company again, make your changes and delete the company again

Creation of Service Product with Set Type and Attribute

Dear All,
Please guide me with proper step by step process,
How to create the product with the set type and attribute for service industry in sap crm 7.0
Regards,

Hi Nitin,
Before creating the Service type of product, you have to define the Base category for Service type product. Generally the category for service will be created under the R3 hierarchy R3PRODSTYPE. You can create this category using the TCode:
COMM_HIERARCHY. Here you have to select the product type as Service and have to assign the set types to the category.
You can create a service product using the transaction : COMMPR01 -> Click on Service ICON -> Select the Category for Service Type. Then fill in the details for Service Product description, Service ID(Based on number range settings for products), Language.
Also fill other details like Base Unit of measure, Pricing condition for different sales areas for the service product.
Since you are using CRM7.0, you can do all these activities using a POWER USER role.
For more information about Set types and hierarchies please refer the following help link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm70/helpdata/EN/46/57672501a208e7e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm
