Unbilled information structures in IS-U for BW

Hi!
I am doing the configuration in IS-U for getting data for unbilled revenue reporting, simulation documents...
My problem is, the information structures needs BILLRUNNO field, that exist into the table, however, when I want to select the characteristics from table, doesnt appers.... HOW CAN I SOLVE THE PROBLEM??? How can I add the field to the structure? somebody knows... it is similar to structure standard S440 and S441
Thanks a lot

Hi, UIS and individual procedure doesn't exclude each other. Means, you can use the individual procedure with UIS also.
But if you want to do the individual procedure (and store the values on a granular level - that's often the case), UIS will run into performance issues because of the very high data volume.
That's why you shouldn't use UIS here but BW. Check also our Service Marketplace here.
service.sap.com/utilities -> Product Information -> Business Intelligence -> Cookbooks&Guidlines. There is a link to the help.docu provided.
How big is the customer you want to implement URR (# of customers, # of bills per year/customer)?

Looking for Information structure

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if there is any SD information structure which includes a field with the total amount of sales order quantity.
What I am looking for is the total amount of sales order related to a plant in a certain week.
Thanks in advance and best regards.
Thanks

Hi
I don't think there is any infostructure on the basis of Plant in the sales information system. Try difining infostrucure as a plant and for that you have to assign the key figure as incoming orders, qty, value etc

Hi,
Steps in LIS EXTRACTION:
T.code - :MC18 u2013 create field catalog
1. Characteristic Catalog
Application-01-Sales and Distribution, 02-Purchasing, 03-Inventory Controlling, etc..
Catalog category 1. Characteristic catalog, 2. Key figures catalog 3. Date catalog Select characteristic catalog and enter, click on characteristic select the source table and it will be display the relevant source field and select the source field, copy + close, copy.
Save, similarly create key figures catalog
T.code : MC21 u2013 create infostructure
Example u2013
Inforstructure : S789
Application u2013 01
Choose characteristic select the catalog, select the fields, copy + close Choose key figures catalog select the key figures ,copy + close, save and generate
T.code u2013 MC24 u2013 create updating
Infostructure : S789
Update group : 01- Sales document, delivery, billing document ,enter Select the key figures click on rules for key figures give suggest rules, copy save and generate Click on updating (activate updating) Select the infostructure set periodic split 1. Daily, 2. Week, 3. Month, 4. Posting period Updating u20131)No updating,2)Synchronous updating (V1), 3)As synchronous updating (V2), 4)As synchronous updating (V3),
T.code u2013 LBW0 - Connection of LIS Information structures to SAPBW Information structure : S786 Select the radio button-Setup LIS environment and Execute.
Select the radio button-Generate data source and Execute.
For Delta update:
Select the radio button-Generate updating and Execute Select the radio button -Activate / deactivate and Execute.
T.code u2013 SBIW u2013 Display IMG (implementation guide) Setting for applications specific data source u2013 logistics u2013 Managing transfer information structure u2013 setup of statistical data u2013 applications specific setup of statistical data u2013perform statistical setup u2013 sales.
Choose activity
Setup u2013 Orders, deliveries, billing
Choose the activities enter the infostructure (S789), give name of the run, date of termination, time of termination, No. of tolerated faulty documents. Then execute
T.code u2013 RSA3 u2013 Extractor checker
Give the data source name eg. 2LIS 01S789 and execute, result will get some records Go to BW side replicate data source u2013 Assign infosource u2013 Create infocube u2013 Create update rules u2013 create infopackage and schedule the package with initialize delta process.
For delta update :
In R/3 side
T.code u2013 MC25, set update (V1) or (V2) or (V3)
T.code u2013 LBW0, choose generate updating and execute then choose activate / deactivate and execute
BW side - create infopackage and schedule the package with delta update.
First time if your scheduling the infopackage -in R/3 side T.code :MC25 -Udating set to No update,insted of selecting the update V1,V2,V3.
If your doing the Delta update:in R/3 side T.code :MC25-Updating set to either V1 or V2 or V3. and the to T.code :LBW0 -Select the radio button Active/deactivate and Execute.
and schedule the infopackage with delta update.
Modules for LIS : SD,MM, PP,QM.
Deltas for LIS:
After setting up the LIS environment, 2 transparent tables and 1 extract structure is generated for this particular info structure. Within transaction SE11 you can view the tables u2018SnnnBIW1u2019, u2018SnnnBIW2u2019 and the structure u2018SnnnBIWSu2019 and the InfoStructure itself u201ASnnnu2018
The tables S5nnnBIW1 & SnnnnBIW2 are used to assist the delta update process within BW.
Extract structure u2018SnnnnBIWCu2019 is used as an interface structure between OLTP InfoStructure and BW
The OLTP system has automatically created an entry in the control table u2018TMCBIWu2019. Within transaction u2018SE16u2019 youu2019ll see, that for your particular InfoStructure the field u2018BIW activeu2019 has the value u2018Xu2019 and the field u2018BIW statusu2019 is filled with value u20181u2019 (refers to table SnnnBIW1).
The orgininal LIS update program u201ARMCX#### will be enhanced within the form routines u201Aform Snnnbiw1_update_....u2018 and u201Aform Snnnbiw2_update
With the transaction u2018SE38u2019 youu2019ll see at the end of the program starting at line 870 / 1006, that the program is enhanced within a u2018BIW delta updateu2019 coding
Within the flag u201AActivate/Deactivateu2018 the update process into the delta tables (SnnnBIW1/Sn5nnBIW2) is swichted on/off. In the table u201ATMCBIWu2018 is defined, which table is active for delta update.
Note: The delta updating is client dependent !

How to archive information structure?

hi,
There are some Archiving Object for information structure in ECC 6.0, however I can't find this in the version ECC5.0 and R/3 4.6C,I want to know if it means we can't archive information structure in these version?
Thanks in advance.

Error 4 occurred while information structure S001 was being updated.

Hi experts,
I set up the environment for the 2LIS_01_S001 DataSource (InfoCube 0SD_C01) accordingly these steps (as mentioned in another thread):
1) Activating LIS update - goto OMO1 transaction code
In the Updating Info Structures(S001) - double-click the Updating radio button for Info structure S001.
In the Parameters dialog box select Synchronous updating and choose ok.
2) Goto OLI7 Transaction code - run the statistical update.
3) Goto OLIX transaction code - setup version &( will be copied to actual version 000 for reporting
4)Go back to OMO1 do deactive the LIS Update, check radio button to "No Update"
5)Now goto LBW0 and choose option "Deactivate" Delta updating in LIS.
6) In BW, Replicate DataSource, and run info Package with Initilization.
7) Now again in R/3 we need to "Activate" Delta option from transaction code LBW0.
8) and last step is to goto OMO1 to activate LIS Update to Synchronous updating and save.
But in step 2 , I am getting an error i.e
Error 4 updating info structure S001
Message no. M2022
Error 4 occurred while information structure S001 was being updated.
The update was attempted with the following key:
&V3 0100000000000000290658
I am not understanding this error,so cant proceed further.
waiting for ur replies.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Colum
I have two systems in both i am doing the same process.
But in my one system i am getting error
but in my other system i am not getting error and my set up table is filled with records.
According to that note key figures sequence in S001, S001BIW1 & S001BIW2 should be same.
but i my other system, key figure sequence is different and i am fine working with it.
so why it is not able to fill my set up table for my other system ?
thanks in advance.

How can a structured frame be used for translating books to foreign languages?

I keep reading about how a structured approach can improve the translation process (from english to foreign languages), however, i can't seem to find specifics about a particular method or tutorials about how to go about it (specifically). My question is, how (specifically) can structured framemaker be used for translation from english to foreign languages? Links to tutorials on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

@Ian Proudfood
A well organized XML based project will definitely save translation costs. There are many advantages to the XML approach to translation management including:
Almost zero DTP rework costs - make the EDD/Template do all of the work!
Translation is application version independent - no need to wait for the Translation Memory/CMS system vendor to support the latest version of FrameMaker.
»... a well organized XML based project will definitively save translation costs.« – I have read sentences like this from a lot of consultants. And I have consulted/supported a lot of customers after those consultants left the stage. I always hear more or less the same from all of those clients. No question, I hear a lot of arguments for working with XML in tech doc, most of the arguments you mention included. Most of the tech writers are happy with the new structured FrameMaker and enjoy writing. And, cross your heart: Finally there's no alternative to XML in the long term if you take your tech writer job seriously. No question – working with pure XML in a professional information architecture in a structured, guiding editing environment like FrameMaker is cool, fun, faster and produces more open, more accessible, more reusable, more reliable, more consistent, in a nutshell: more valuable data.
But what I have never ever heard, and I'm talking about several hundred companies, is: We save more money on translation now. You might imagine that this is surprising me since many years. This is why I always ask: Did you save any costs in your translation projects? Surprisingly the answer is always: No. Actually some – no, wait: many – tell me, that their translation agency even charges more now, because they have a lot of new costs:
Costs, to customize their translation memory system to the clients custom xml,
costs to follow badly or not documented changes in the client's xml structure (DTD/Schema changes) in the TMS,
costs because of more engineering work like
valididating xml in advance,
fixing invalid xml exports,
fixing invalid translations due to – sometimes massively – increased amount of tag errors because of tagging differences of "old" (legacy mif) and "new" (xml) tags,
dealing with just too big XML files that need to be carefully split, so that the TMS has a chance to read it, or alternatively:
"glue" the ten-thousand xml "snippets" to more handy chunks,
project managers and translators that need to do additional checks, validations, verifyings - and often not knowing what to do with those cryptic error messages, meaning additional support costs
Of course, many if no all of these and many other problems I did not mention here can be solved. And many are not exactly system immanent problems but communication problems (like introducing or renaming elements/attributes but not documenting this and not communicating this to the translation service provider) or would apply to any system change (e.g. also when switching from Word to Frame). However, I do not know of any single translation company on this planet (and I know virtually thousands of them from countries all over the world) that reduced the price per word for just a single pence, just because the client switched over from Word/Quark/FrameMaker/InDesign/Whatever to XML.
Just ask your translation service provider: Will you charge me less per word if I send you XML instead of MIF? I would really be surprised to hear a "yes". And frankly, if you have ever compared a professional FrameMaker document with the same document in xml format in a professional system like Trados: There is actually no difference that would justify any price difference. The text is the same, the amount of words identical, the number of tags is identical, it even looks identical in the translation system (I can post screenshots if you like). From the translation perspective there is no single reason why a translator should charge a single pence less.
So, it's a modern myth, that switching to xml reduces translation costs. That might be true, if you come from a really medieval documentation szenario with MS Word or the like, with manual formatting without any styles and so on (I see tech docs every day where even the TOC is typed in manually!!!) and swith from there to a modern structured xml authoring in combination with other supporting tools like authoring memory / authoring assistance, controlled language, translation memory and terminology managent and control, snippet based content management and so on. That will increase the consistency and quality of your data, which will reduce translation costs in the long term. But the truth is: This has nothing to do with XML per se, but with professional writing and professional management.
So, what's left in the money saving story? No more DTP in the target languages? I always hear, that with XML and FrameMaker you do not have to "format" the translated document. The truth is: If you have a professionally formatted (unstructured) document, you don't have to take care of it, too. Modern tools like Trados keep 100% of the formatting 100% correct in the translated document. If the underlying template is intelligent enough to take account of text amount changes due to longer translations, and if you don't have too many local formatting overrides, the DTP is actually zero and can be reduced to a few mintes/hours for "flying" of the document to check out for unexpeted problems wich can occure in both structured and unstructured documents.
Just to give some numbers on this: We are processing every day technical documentations for a quite big company. A typical documentation from them is about 250 pages in unstructured FrameMaker 9 (source language is English). Until now they were resistent to all my XML pushing. The Documentation is based on a straight, simple template (with our help "reduced to the max") and there are no formatting overrides (a script automatically checks this). The post translation Quality Assurance effort is - depending on the target language - usually something between 1 to 4 hours – that's a few seconds per page for the languages where already a lot of past Quality Assurance Steps went back into the Translation Memories and up to a minute per page for more "problematic" languages).
So, again: XML will not save you a single pence on translations. But it might help you to produce more open, more accessible, more reusable, more reliable, more consistent, in a nutshell: more valuable data. But if you already have properly set up (ustructured) FrameMaker Documents and already work with a professional translation memory system, you will be quite disappointed to learn, that the impressive money saving promises you recently saw on that great PowerPoint slides melt down to a few bucks over a couple of years.
Kind regards,
Stefan Gentz

Accessing Information Structure

Hi,
I have created an info structure to be used for my customer forecast in the planning table. Once I have actual sales, I want to be able to compare actual sales with the forecasts. Currently, i can get the fields from actuals and forecast using planning type. However, i do not know how to populate the data from the actuals? How do you set it? Can I access the info structure data?
Thanks.

S125 Information Structure with no values

Hi everyone,
Since I have realized that in our ystem the information structure S125,
I would like to know which are the steps we should follow in order to activate that tructure so it takes values for example when I create a sales order.
Thanks in advance and best regards.
Ben.

Hi,
You need to do the basic settings for LIS :
Logistics Data Warehouse
   Data Basis
     Updating
        Updating Definition
        Updating Control
                Activate update
                Settings: Sales
                     Statistics Groups
                     Update Group
               Assign update group on item level
               Assign update group on header level
1). Maintain the relevant Statistic group in Customer and Material Master
2). Assign the Update group based on the Sales Area , Customr Statistics Group , Material Statistic Group, Sales Document type statistiv group, Item Cateogry Statistic group & Relevant Update group
3). Assign the Update Group based on Sales Area , Statistic Group for Customer, Statistictics group for sales document type.
Please check with these basic settings and confirm
Reward points if this helps.

Archive Information Structure purging

Hi All,
We have a requirement to automate the Archive Information Structure (AIS) purging.
Currently its been done manually from the transaction SARI.
The Suggested solution involves recording (SHDB) the above manual process and write a Call Transaction program for purging multiple info structure.
Are there any alternatives for purging AIS other than using recorded SARI transaction?
Can this be accomplished by calling some function modules?
Thanks & Regards,
Abhijith P.K

hi,
Thank you so much,that's just what I want,however the transaction may be MCSX.

QM , Working with Information structure and standard Analyses

I have created a Information structure S950 copying Information Structure S068.I have fews issues in the newly crerated information structure.
1) When I generated standard analyses and assigned the transaction code for it.
The descrption present in the transaction code is not shown on the selection
screen. Can anyone let me know how do Change the description on selection
screen of the standard analyses. Or how do we create "Analysis" for Standard
Analyses.
2) When I run the MCVA transaction (Standard Anaylses for Vendor - Info structure S068) I can see few Rate fields being caculated .Ex: Rejection rate . This fields are not stored phisically in the S068 but coming dynamically. I want the same fields in my transaction as it is the copy of S068. I believe this calculation are made in Supplementary Key figures. Can anyone let me know where is this supplementray key figure OR how do we set the supplemetary key figure in Custom information Structure.
I will really appreciate if any one could help me on this.

Credit management Information structure

Hi All,
The credit-relevant data is updated into information structures S066 and S067, where it
is accessed and updated.
How to see structures S066 and S067. I mean what is the transaction to see this?
Regards
Nidhi

Dear Customer,
there is no special transaction to see the S066 or S067.
In this case have the possibility to create your own report for the evaluation.
But you can see the sales values in transaction FD32 or FD33 but only for the relevant
customer.
The other possibility is transaction SE16.
Hope that the information are helpful.

Do you have any more information about the Lightroom Mobile for tablet? [was:Information]

Hey just doing a check. In. Do you have any more information about the Lightroom app for tablet? Like when it is coming out, what features will it have? Because I can't Waite. Especially for editing a raw file on a tablet. Excited.
I do have a Few questions. 1. Will the app have a library mode that allows the photographer to display the raw files on the app like how photo shop touch does. Example. When your import a photo from the iPad it shows up in the photo app that Apple makes. But when you take that photo into photo shop and save it as a psdx file, the project or photo does not show up in the original photo app by apple.
2. Will the app use the smart previews when you import a raw file on to the iPad the same as you do with a computer?
3. Do you have to Waite to go home to edit a raw file or can you edit on the tablet once you import the photo from camera to iPad? Instead of going home import to computer into Lightroom 5, then to adobe cloud, then to iPad.
4. Will the app display catalog, book, etc modes like Lightroom 5 has?

At this stage, we don't know any more about Lightroom Mobile than Adobe revealed in Sep 2013
http://laurashoe.com/2013/09/09/on-the-adobe-horizon-lightroom-mobile/
Adobe will reveal more when they're good and ready.
