Unable to Delete failed requests from Infocube

Dear Experts,
I tried to uploaded the data through flat file. Since it has gone to Idle state i Killed the process. Now i Need to delete the red request from Infocube but It is not allowing me to delete the failed request. If I do so, I am getting ABAP runtime error.
Please Suggest me . Its bit Urgent
Many Thanks,
Suraj

Hi Suraj,
There is might be a deadlock detected in the system
So go the reqeust
click on the details tab
Each Package which is yellow or red has to be updated manually (right click Manual Update). This can take few minutes.
Change request status to green
Change to Status doppleclick on total status
Change from red to Delete status;back to request status
Note:
This case is only applicable, if the data are stored in PSA.

Duplicate records: Process : Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube

Hi Experts,
We are loading data in standard costing cube with standard available option Full upload. In our process chain we have included process type "Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube". In our scenario we always load yesterday and today's data. In this case after loading yesterday's data, we need to check and delete the overlapping requests and then upload todays data.
Many a times this deletion process is failing due to message "Couldn't lock cube" because it is already locked by user "ALEREMOTE". This cause system to duplicate the records in cube.
How we can avoid this?
Alok

I tried running again and it again failed. Checked in SM12 and found this entry
800 ALEREMOTE 08/14/2007 E RSENQ_PROT_ENQ CREA_INDX ZCCA_C11 DATATARGET CREA_INDX ###################################### 0 1
This locked is not released since 14th. Is there way to remove the lock using some process.

Process Maintenance: Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube

Hi Experts,
How can I open Process Maintenance: Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube Screen? What's T-code? Is that in Process Chain? Please tell me that....
Thanks in advance,

Hi
'Delete overlapping request' is an option(its a process type) in the process chains..
RSPC>Process types>Load Process and post process folder--->Delete overlapping request from the infocube..
here you can have more options like 'source systems are same',and infosources are same etc...

Problems with delete overlapping requests from InfoCube in PC

Hi guys,
Iu2019m using delete overlapping requests from InfoCube in Process Chains, but Iu2019m not being able to adjust it to my specific requirement.
For example:
I execute DTP to load InfoCube XPTO with Fiscal Year 2008 and 2009. After this I have to load again, but only for 2009.
In this specific example I want my process chain to delete the 2009 data from my first load, because it is overlapped, and leave 2008 data.
Is this possible? If yes how?
Thanks in advance
Jão Arvanas

It will not work that way.
It will look if the selections are same then it wil delete if not then it will not do that activity.
Overlapping settings which you might chosen is based on the delete overlapping for the same selections..
So in this case the selections are different and hence its not possible.
Thanks

"Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube" in a Process Chain

Dear all,
I encountered a problem when I building the process chain in BW 3.0.
In a process chain, I schedule daily an InfoPackage to load data to an InfoCube and then delete the previously loaded data by the same InfoPacckage from the InfoCube.
For example, I have 2 InfoPacakge, A and B, and schedule to load data to InfoCube C. In the process chain, I scheduled daily the following tasks in sequence:
- Delete index in InfoCube C
- Load data through InfoPackage A to InfoCube C
- Delete duplicated request previously loaded through InfoPackage A in InfoCube C
- Load data through InfoPackage B to InfoCube C
- Delete duplicated request previously loaded through InfoPackage B in InfoCube C
- Create index in InfoCube C
However, when I activate the process chain, a warning message is prompted: No type "Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube" process allowed infront of process "Execute InfoPackage" variable ZPAK_4GMFI
Would anyone tell me why such warning message is prompted?
Many thanks!
Best regards,
Marcus

Hi all,
Re Ranjan:
I previously config the process chain like that:
(1)   Delete index in InfoCube C
(2)   Load data through InfoPackage A to InfoCube C
(3a) Delete duplicated request previously loaded through InfoPackage A in InfoCube C
(3b) Load data through InfoPackage B to InfoCube C
(4)   Delete duplicated request previously loaded through InfoPackage B in InfoCube C
(5)   Create index in InfoCube C
where (3a) and (3b) is executed simultaneously.
However, (3b) often reports error. I guess it may be due to the parallel run of (3a) and (3b). So that's why I set the process chain to be executed in serial.
Re Jacob:
I found that the process chain can be run even a warning message is prompted when activating the process chain!.
Thanks you all for your kind support!!
Best regards,
Marcus

Delete overlapping requests from infocube

Hi ALL,
I have loads to infocube from 5 diffrent infopackages loading adhocly or randomly from same source sytem and same infosource.
Note:infopackages have dynamic selections.(ex calweek,product)
My requirement: If i load infopackage-1 today,and when i load the same infopackage next time the prevoius load should be deleted .
I need the same functionality for other 4 infopackages.
So at given point of time i should have only 5 requests in the infocube.
These are the settings i have done.
1)At infopackage level i have selected option Delete existing requests : overlapping
   Without selecting any conditions like infosources,source sytem are same.
2)Added process type in the process chain delete overlapping requests from infocube
   selected option: Delete existing requests : overlapping.
   Without selecting any conditions like infosources,source sytem are same.
Are these settings are enough or is there in best way to do this .
Please suggest me ...

Kishore,
Delete overlapping requests means, delete request with same selection only. If data selection not same, i dont think it will delete any previous request.
You can select infosource, source system. No issues. System only deletes request if data coming from same infosource or from same source system for same selection.
But in your case selection changing every day or for every load. I dont think it works.... Try once in DEV.
If i understand correctly, as you only needed latest 5 requests only, why cant you delete data completely before loading / starting new set of requests...?? This is easy, quicker and better approach.
But only problem is data will not be available during loading of new set of requests.

Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube: Before or After the Generate Ind

Hi,
Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube Before or After the Generate Index of the Infocube? Why?
I think "After", but the system (transaction RSPC)suggest 1.Generate Index 2.Overlapping Requests from InfoCube ...
Thanks
Alessandro

Hi Alessandro,
Bottom Line Index will speed up the Process. While loading the Data you need to delete the Index.
Index will degrade the performence while updating or modifying DB Entries(Loading). Index will improve the performence while reading the DB(Reporting).
It's not with BW. all RDBMS need this.

Deleting failed request from DSO leading to delete of INIT of DSO to Cube

data flows from ds1, ds2 and ds3 to dso1 as delta. the data is then taken from dso1 to cube1 via delta
data flows from ds3 to dso2 as delta. the data is then taken from dso2 to cube 2 via delta.
when a data is loaded from ds1 or ds2 or ds3 to dso1.. or when data is loaded from ds3 to dso2.. now if we try to delete this un activiated request from lets say dso1. it gives and error that the init from dso1 to cube1 would be deleted as the data has already been data marted.
this happens even if the request in dso1 is inactive successful or inactive failed.
i did an init of ds1,ds2, ds3 to dso1. and also did an init from dso1 to cube1. but the problem persists.
though if all goes good. like no failures in the load, then all is well.
but if the load failed. say ds2 to dso1 failed. then when we attempt to delete this request from dso1, it says that it has already been uploaded to cube1 and the init will have to be deleted. here when we checked the datamart sign in dso1, it looks like the newly loaded n unactivated data is somehow assosiated with the dso1tocube1 init.
any thoughts?

Please give more info.
How have you connected DS01 and Cube 1? Transformation or update rules? How have you done the initialization?
What is the version SAP BW that you are using?
Have you checked any relevant SAP Notes?
Thanks,
Krishnan

Unable to delete a request from a Cube which is loaded by Open hub to flat

Hi,
We have one Cube from which we are transferring data to a flat file by open hub.
the DTP for the OPEN HUB is delta DTP.
Now when i am trying to delete a request from Cube its not allowing me.
Its giving error as request is already updated to the target so delete the request from target first.
I tried deleting the open hub request entry from RSBKREQUEST table.
but still its not deleting the request from the Cube.
Can you please help me in solving this problem.
Thanks in Advance,

I think request is having datamart, which is not allowing it to delete.
You can try to reset (delete) the datamart by clicking on it in cube request and then try to delete.
Or if it does not work, you can delete it from RSICCONT table, which will delete the request from cube also.

Unable to delete the request from ODS

Hi All,
I have loaded a request to ODS from flat file and the load got success, the request is activated and is available for reporting. Now the problem is i want to delete the request, but the request is not deleting.
I tried to delete the request by going in to the cube manage and changed the QM status and the technical status to red and delete, but it is not deleted.
Thanks in advance for your reply

Hi Prem,
If the ods has datamart status & has been used to load data to a cube, then u cant delete the ods request. In this case, first, change the QM status of the request in the cube to red (delete) & then it wud be possible to go with the deletion of ods request.
Also check this thread as well
Request unable to delete from ODS.

Unable to automate deletion of old data (requests) from InfoCube using a PC

Each week I copy open Notifications into a 'SnapShot' cube, from the Transaction Cube, using the current date to make it a unique copy/snapshot for that week. This is then reported on showing, amongst other things, the trend of open Notifications throughout the year.
In an effort to ensure this doesn't grow too big, I will only keep a rolling 52 weeks of data. I thought I could use a feature available when creating Process Chains called 'Delete Overlapping Requests from InfoCube' to manage the amount of data held (52 weeks only).
The variant used to delete the requests has been created linked to object type 'Data Transfer Process' (DTP) and the actual DTP used to load the 'SnapShot' cube ... I then click the 'delete selections' button. On the next window I select 'Request Selection Through Routine', then click 'Change Routine'. I entered the following code, which I borrowed from another thread:
data: datum(16) type c,
date type sy-datum.
date = sy-datum.
date = date - 365.
break-point.
concatenate date sy-uzeit into datum.
loop at l_t_request_to_delete.
delete l_t_request_to_delete where timestamp gt datum.
endloop.
append l_t_request_to_delete.
p_subrc = 0.
I get a message saying "No Requests for deletion were found'. Any ideas?

HI Tony,
Please check whether the timestamp value you are popolating i filed datum with the following statement:
concatenate date sy-uzeit into datum.
has same data format and type as the timestamp for the request.
If this is not same then you will not be able to find any request corresponding to timestamp.

Delete overlapping requests from cube not working in processchain.

In a process chain, 'deletion of overlapping requests from the cube ' step is used.
Before this step a DTP step runs with a full update to load the cube. This process chain is scheduled every day.
Issue is, the process chain failed at the DTP step and after correcting and repeating, the step got executed.
However, the next step after the DTP,'delete overlapping requests from the cube'
gets executed but without deleting the previous day's request.
In the step details a message that 'No request for deletion were found' can be seen.
Then next day when the DTPstep is executed without any problem the 'delete overlapping requests from cube' step is successful
and the previous requests from cube are deleted.
the deletion selections in the step ' delete overlapping request from infocube' is
Delete existing requests
Conditions:
only delete requests from same DTP
Selections
Same or more comprehensive
Because of this issue on a particular day because of the presence of 2 days requests the data is getting aggregated and shown as double in the reports.
Please help.

Hi Archana,
When you delete the bad request from target and before repeating your DTP in PC, make sure the bad request deleted from table RSBKREQUEST also.
If you find the same request in table, first delete the request from table and repeat the DTP in PC.
Now Delete overlapping step should work.
As this is not the permanent solution, please raise an OSS for SAP

Process Chain - Unable to delete overlapping request

Hi Gurus
I'm in the mid of creating process chain to load transaction data in which I need to delete the previous load that loaded in using the same DTP previously
In the process chain , i have included a process "Delete Overlapping Request from Infocube" . Once i'm in the screen of maintain variant for this process, i selected DTP as the object type but unable to find the DTP that i have created under the object name.
Can someone point out what is missing
Thank you

Hi,
Looks like you need to give the the techincal name of the DTP. if you are un able to find the technical name of the DTP you can find that in the transport organizer.
just drag and drop the infoprovider ( with dataflow before) you will ge the DTP as required.
note the technical name of the DTP .
include the technical name in the process and activate the process.

Process Type - Delete overlapping requests from an Info Cube

I have read many threads on this topic, still have some questions. To give you background, I will be doing delta load (delta process chain). But before delta, I want to do setup initialization (init process chain). I want to use this process type in my init process chain to delete all data in my cube loaded from a specific ods. I cannot use delete all contents process type because many odss feed the same cube.
1.     Do you put this process type after Load Data or before Load Data. I have seen both cases in SDN forums.
2.     Variant of this process type is an info package. Does this info package have to be same as in load data step or it can be different.
3.     I want to delete all data in cube which was loaded from my ods. Term overlapping is confusing to me. Will this process type delete all data or not.
Tanks in advance.

Yes, you can do that. Goto RSPC - under process types Load Process and Post Processing, you will see DELETE OVERLAP REQUESTS FROM INFOCUBE option is there.
Select the proper check boxes like same sourcesystem, same datasource etc...
If it is one time deletion, why not do that manually?
Also check: How to delete most recent request in a Cube by using process chain
Hope it helps..
