Unable to view Navigational Attributes in ODS

Dear All,
We have enabled Material Group as Navigational Attribute in Material. Material has been included in ODS as Key Field. In ODS also Material Group is switched as Nav Attr. Now when I check in Reports I am getting # for all Material Groups. I checked in ListCube. Here also I am getting # values.
I did master Data Activation and also did Attribute change run. Where as I am able to view values for Material Group in Material Master Data.
Regards
Ravi Y

Hi Ravi,
You could check if the X/Y table of material group are correct.
Do RSRV  combination check on the info object material and material group. Run all the tests...espeially the consistency of X and Y tables..
Also, you could probably check if this is some authorization issue... that you dont have authorization to view contents of material group...(may not be the case, but worth a check )...
Sounds strange though, if all is ok and u still dont see material group. (and sometimes it cud be a refresh issue as lalit suggests....., if it has to get wierd )
Hope it helps,
Regards,
Sunmit.

  • Variable on Navigational Attributes in ODS

    BW Experts,
    I have a Navigational Attribute in my ODS. In  my query design, I do not get an option to build a variable for selection on this Navigational attribute. Is it a fact with ODS that Variable cannot be built on Nav Attributes?
    Thanks
    Ashwin

    hi Ashwin,
    we have to logout and login again bex analyzer to reflect any changes on infoprovider, i guess you were opening bex and turn on ods navigation attribute and couldn't find it in bex query, then you logoff and login again and see the navigation attribute, you can have a try
    hope this helps.

  • Unable to add Navigational attribute in Qery

    Hi All,
    Am a beginner in Bex queries. I need to add a Navigational Attribute, in a BEx Query.  I did the following:
    1.  Turned ON the Navigational attribute in the Infocube.
    2. As my query is on Multiprovider, i had mapped the specific field as well.
    3. In the query, the 'Attribute' folder is added to the particular charcteristic in the infoprovider panel. When i try to drag to the navigational attribute into the 'Free Characrteristics', its not working out.
    Am not sure about the procedure for adding the Navigational attribute into the Query. please help me in resolving this.
    Thanks,
    Chitra.

    Hi Chitra,
    Check if the navigational attribute is already there in Rows or filters area. it can't be in 2 places at a time.
    First make sure the Attribute is navigational enabled at info object level.
    Enable the object as navigational at IC level.
    as you are using MP... you need to enable the navigational attribute in the MP and identify the object then you will be able to use the navigational attribute in the query.

  • Navigation Attributes

    dear All,
    Is there any thumb rule to decide whether a characteristic should be defined as an attribute/navigational attribute.
    the reason is from a realignment point of view, navigational attributes can be easily realigned by just updating the master data. For plain attributes, we need to carry out the realignment.
    Can i use navigational attributes in planning?
    regards,
    Kedar

    Hi Kedar,
                 You cant plan using navigational attributes.You can do one thing if you really want to plan using navigational attributes convert them to separate characteristics and can start planning.
    Regarding realignment , you cant do realignment for attributes you need to convert them to characteristics in order to plan.
    Please let me know if your question is answered. Please let me know if you have any questions.
    Thanks ,

  • Unable to view columns for attribute views created

    Hi all,
    Here are the list of errors I am facing while creating attribute views and while adding multiple dimensions (Product dim and Employee dim) to an attribute view.
    I am unable to activate my attribute view. I don’t get any error message other than:
    Message :      STS.STS_ATTRIBUTE_VIEW: one or more columns of Table: DIMSUPPLIER have invalid ABAP name
    2. When I added DIM.Product attribute to the attribute view STS_ATTRIBUTE_VIEW, I am unable to see any column names for the DIM.Product to add them to output fields. Same with employee dimension also. Now my question is, Can I add more than one dimension to the same attribute view or do I have to create a new attribute view for every dimension. While I think I can add more dimensions to the same attribute view but I asked this question because I am unable to see any columns listed out in the dimensins Product and Employee.
    3. In Employee dimension when I click on the data preview, I don’t get any data. Its all blank. But there is data in the table and its visible when I preview in table.
    4. When I right click on the attribute view or the attribute itself I don't see any other options other than "Configure Table" but I remember 2 days back when I worked I was able to see other options like "Data Preview" and few others.
    Why am I unable to view the columns of the Product and Employee dimensions? Should there be a common primary key between all the dimensions to be able to view the data in the attribute view?
    Please note that my attribute view is still in grey inspite of hitting on save and validate and save and activate several times. And I am getting a warning message, "Some services are not started" on my hdbsystem and the system is showing yellow colour.
    Please advise.
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Pavan.

    Hi Pavan,
    To much words and no picture, this doesn't help you to obtain community feedback.
    Can you sintetize your question, maybe even split it in minor questions.
    I confess I failled to understand what you are facing.

  • Navigation attributes while creating the ODS

    Hi all.
       can you pls let me know what is the use of navigation attributes folder while creating ODS.& also about index folder.
    Kind Regards,
    sami.

    Hi,
    Navigational Attributes folder: If you have info-object like 0Material in your ODS then attributes of info-object 0MAterial which are marked as navigational comes under this folder and there is an option of check marking these navigational attributes. If you check mark this navigational attribute it will be available in reporting just like another info-object(means you can put filter on this navigational attribute).
    Index Folder: Basic reason to have index folder is same as "indexing" this improves the reading from this ODS. Like if you are pulling records from this ODS or you have written select query on this ODS in your routines, indexing on this ODS will improve reading drastically. you can pull info-objects into index folder on the basis of which you are reading data from this DSO, it will improve reading.

  • How to see Navigation attribute in Report

    Hi ,
      I am working on BI7.0.
      In my Query , material is a characteristic which has 3-4 Navigation attributes. But when I execute the report , I can only see Material data displayed (because only material is in the rows). I also want to see data of its attributes in report results. I dont have authorisation to change the query.
    Also I am unable to open the Query in Local view (some connectivity issues).
    Can you please suggest How I can drill-down those attributes.??
    Also these attributes are not visible in free characteristics.
    Thanks,
    Su

    Hi there,
    To use the navegational attributes with drill down, they have to be available in either rows, columns or free characterisitic.
    For that you have to edit the query. There's no other way.
    But each navegational attribute is also a display attribute.
    Therefore, you can after executing the query, right-click over material and select properties. You'll see a tab named attributes where you can add the avilable attributes to the left (so they will be displayed), and change the settings of each one of them (see only key, key and text, etc.), but you can't filter by any of those attributes, or do any drill down options over them. They are only display attributes.
    Hope this helps.

  • Adding navigational attributes to a cube

    We have upgraded to BW 7.3. Previously when we added navigational attributes to a cube we need to activate the update rules from the ods but now it appears that we don't need to do that anymore. Is this the expected behavaior?  We are using the 3.5 update rules.
    thanks

    HI,
    If you are using 3.5, after selecting nav attr in the cube, the cube structure gets deactivated. The dependent update rules also gets deactivated. You will be forced to activate all again.
    In BW 7.3, SAP would have given privilege to add without activation. It is good for us. So nothing to worry.

  • Need help on Authorization on Navigational Attribute.

    Hi All,
    I am working on Authorizations.
    I am using the info Object "Material group" which is the Navigational Attribute of 0MATERIAL.
    In Reporting, I have created the Authorization Variable for Material group.
    And after this, i have created the Authorization Object in RSECADMIN and added the info Object "Material group" and harded coded the value as "1000". After this, i have created the Authorization Role in PFCG and added this authorization Object over there.And this role is assigned specific User.
    While Running the report on specific User, for Material group, filteration is not happening over there (Material group = 1000). It is showing all values for this user.
    Can you please help on this issue.
    Thanks,
    Shahina A

    Thanks for your reply. I was on leave for the past 2 days. I have checked as you suggested.
    In 0MATERIAL, 0MATL_GROUP is the attribute and i have made Authorization Relvent for this Attribute.
    And i activated the Info object 0MATERIAL.
    Then i have run the query in RSRT and found an error while running the Report.
    Can u pls help on this issue.
    Diagnosis
    The system determined the authorized characteristic values for the characteristic 0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP. It determined that you do not have the (analysis) authorization to view transaction data for any characteristic values or range.
    System Response
    If this situation occurs when a variable is being filled, the query cannot be executed.
    Procedure
    You must have authorization for at least one characteristic value for the characteristic 0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP.
    Create the appropriate analysis authorizations for the user.
    If you are only authorized for evaluations that aggregate using the characteristic 0MATERIAL__0MATL_GROUP (for ":" authorizations), use a query without this characteristic. If the characteristic is not used as a filter or in the drilldown, variables should not be used.

  • Unable to view enhanced field in Data Source

    Hi All,
    We recently upgraded our R/3 system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0. Now when we are enhancing the data source, the field is visible in the Extract Structure. But we are unable to view it in the data source. We checked out in RSA2 the enhanced field attribute is specified as 'Field in OLTP and BW Hidden by SAP'. We have written code to modifiy the ROOSFIELD table to make the enahnced field visible. But this is the problem with all the data sources. Whenever, we have to enahnce, we have to go thru this process to make the enhanced field visible.
    Is it like that we missied out any patch in ECC 6.0 while upgrade? If any person faced similar situation, please help us.

    Hi Ravi,
    I think you are missing a step here. As soon as you enhance your datasource with new fields, by default, those 2 check boxes are checked ( Hidden and Field in User exit only). You go to RSA6, edit your datasource and here, you can uncheck these added fields so that you can use them. You do not need to write any code to change the fields settings in ROOSFIELD table. Do the step I mentioned above after enhancing and you should be good. Hope it helps.

  • Data issue with Navigational Attribute in the report

    Hi Experts,
    We have a report which has Material and Material Group in the report. Material Group is a navigational attribute of 0Material. We have some 31 material groups in the ODS. However, the report is diaplaying only 3 material Groups. If I use Material Group directly( not as an attribute of material) then it is displaying all the 31 material groups correctly.
    We have a hierarchy which is loaded through Flat file on Material Group. We need the hierarchy to be displayed for all the material groups in the ODS. Please let me know what could be causing this issue?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Kavitha Jagannath

    Hello Kavitha,
    Check if the Material Masterdata is having these Material groups. If not then load this Material masterdata and activate it.
    As your query is using Material group as Navigational attribute then the data should come from this Material Masterdata.
    If your Material has only 3 of th eMat Groups then report will show only 3. Better update this Material masterdata.

  • Navigational Attributes in InfoSets[based on InfoCubes] - BI 7.0

    Hi Gurus,
    I am using BI 7.0. We tried creating a MultiProvider based on three SD Cubes[Orders/Billing & Delivery] but since the result was being displayed in 3 rows instead of 1, we tried using an InfoSet to see if this would get the results to be displayed in a single line.
    In the MultiProvider, we had mapped some of the 'Navigational Attributes' from the underlying InfoCubes after turning them 'ON', but in the InfoSet, I am not able to view the Navigational Attributes of the Cube anywhere.
    Are we not able to add 'Navigational Attributes' to InfoSets? Is there a work around for this?
    Thanks
    Arvind

    Hi Arvind,
    Check note 1124036 @ www.service.sap.com . Check if you need to apply this.
    Also you can add infoobjects themselves in the infoset and join them by keys.

  • How to add Navigation attributes values via ABAP while creation of CVC

    Hi,
    I have a requirement like, I have to add navigational attributes to the cvc record while CVC creation ( /sapapo/mc62 transaction).
    There were two scenarios: 1. Usually when they load master data from BW side those navigation attributes available and when we do CVC creation it's automatically picks those values. If NOT then i have to bring Market segment and Business unit navigational attributes values from ECC via RFC function module by passing MPN and End customer division as a input.
    I am facing problem when BW side if business unit and Market segment were blank.
    Do we have any Function modules available to add navigational attributes data and should update corresponding master data tables.
    Please help me step by step process on this.
    Thanks

    Michael,
    Are you intending this as a commercial solution or a work around?
    To take an existing equivalent, one would build a view in the database tailored for each grid in an Oracle Forms application. Or a separate query layered over tables for each form/grid in a Delphi or Access application? Even if it is ninety nine percent the same over half a dozen forms/grids?
    And now you've added a whole slew of "slightly different" rowSetInfos to maintain.
    So if you wanted to add a column that needs to appear everywhere... you've just increased the workload multi-fold?
    That would be a management nightmare, wouldn't it? Not to mention yet more performance cost and a slower system?
    Hmmmm..... I'm not sure I like where this is headed... someone needs to do some convincing...
