Unused queries & Technical Content

Hi folks,
I need to find out the unused queries (e.g. the ones that weren't used in last 13 months). As far as I know the best way is to use the technical content (0BWTC_C10); but unfortunately it's not active in our system at the moment.
Another option is, using the "Last Used" field of RSZCOMPDIR. We have another "but" here. I've figured out that this field is updated even though a query is opened in query designer.
My questions are:
1. Any ideas for defining such queries in this situation?
2. What are the disadvantages of using this technical content? (I mean the extra work load at server-side.)
Thanks.

hi pekcan,
you can run transaction rszdelete to get a list of all queries not used for a defined time.
Unused/unnecessary Queries can lead to higher times in the 'Open' &#56256;&#56526; 'Query' dialog. They also cause an unnecessary allocation of disk space.
Check regularly whether queries are really still in use. The 'Last Used' field in transaction RSZDELETE (Delete Objects) is related to table RSZCOMPDIR. 'Last Used' is updated in table RSZCOMPDIR with the exact timestamp of when queries are executed with the BEx Analyzer or Web Frontend.
to get some idea regarding technical content, use the links.

Roles and queries Technical content cube

Dear Experts,
Is anyone aware of any technical content cube that has information about roles and which queries those roles have access to?
ie. I need Roles - Query mapping
I have already looked in to AGR_1251 table but here the direct value is not present. I will have to evaluate the S_RS_COMP and
S_RS_COMp1 authorization objects. Iam looking for another method. So please dont suggest AGR_1251 table.
Thanks,
Kris

Hi Kris,
The way that is there to find out the query - mapping details is already known to you which is the best possible way. But apart from that if you would like to know the roles present in your system then you can simply use the Metadata Repository that is already there and is easily accessible.
1) Just go to the RSA1-> Left hand side bottom -> Metadata Repository -> Click on it or use tcode RSORMDR.
2) You will get list for all the Activated objects in your production system.
3) Locate the Role object from Right hand side.
4) On clicking the Role you will get all the roles that have been created in your system.
If you want the role related to a query then you can simply select the Query object from the metadata repository, you will get list of all queries & further clicking on the query will give you entire details about the query like roles etc.
Also you can use your own method.
You will need to write your own abap to get the details by writing logic which compares the data from both the tables and displays the data accordingly else the best option that is always there is using Metadata Repository.
Thanks

Slow Moving Item Scenario - Technical content for Queries

Hello
Due to preparations for upgrade to BW 7.30 we would make an analysis of not or seldom used BEx reports (queries, workbooks, etc.)
All of unused objects should be deleted in advance of an upgrade.
I checked if there is a query which shows slow moving items for queries.
Is there any technical content (query) which reports this scenario for BEx objects?
Thanks for any advise.

follow steps in this doc:

Error while trying to access data from virtual provider - Technical Content

Hi,
I am trying to install the new BI 2004s technical content. I am done with the installation I am trying to display data for the remote cubes delivered i.e. 0TCT_VC11/21 etc. but getting an error:
Error reading the data of InfoProvider 0TCT_VC11
There is still no data source assigned to VirtualProvider 0TCT_VC11
The virtual providers are of type "virtual provider based on DTP" since standard technical content didnt have any DTPs for the VC cubes I tried to create some direct access DTPs based on datasources 0TCT_DS11 but there also getting error:
Source doesnt support direct access
I saw the type for datasource 0TCT_DS11 and its using SAP SAPI and not direct access and couldnt change the type actually the same datasource is also used by cube 0TCT_C11 so changing the type probably wouldnt have been a good idea.
I found the following notes 996735 and implemented its change...but no use...
we are on SP10 and content 7.03 SP2. Can anybody please help??

Hi all,
The above mentioned solution is a good idea but in this context not appropriate as it aims at resolving an issue in the delivered Content Version of 0TCT_VC11.
In your case, you already have 0TCT_VC11 activated and you can not read any data from this VirtualProvider in queries. Right?
In that case, you have to:
1. Check that the entire data flow is active for the InfoProvider (activation should occur for the MYSELF source system): 0TCT_VC11 with InfoSource 0TCT_IS11 with DataSource 0TCT_DS11
2. Activate the direct access for the VirtualProvider (Context menu of 0TCT_VC_11 > Activate Direct Access > Source Syst. for InfoSource3.x > Mark the column with the MYSELF source system and Save).
This corresponds to Installation "Step 5.) Activate direct access for virtual providers" that is mentioned in SAP Note 934848 "Collective note: (FAQ) BI Administration Cockpit".

Aggregates on Technical Content

Hi Guru's,
I have installed the Technical Content Cube ( 0BWTC_C05) ,which is for ware house performance monitoring, Now I have to create a process chain to load data into this Infocube. As we are not using the Multiprovider,we cant have the standard queries on this cube. I have created a Query to get the data necessary . I want to create an aggregate for this infocube . How to manage this in the process chain ,and My doubt is if we create the aggr in Dev system, will this be carried to QA system and prd ?? I will be really Glad if any of you can send me the PC Chain used to load this Infocube, as I am not sure what process to include .
Thanks,
Krish

Hi Krish,
You can transport the aggregates created in Dev to QA and Prod boxes. Also most of the projects do allow the creation of aggregates in Prod/QA also so you can create the aggregates there.
The load steps for 0BWTC_C05 would be like this:
1. Load all the attribute/text associated with the cube 0BWTC_C05.
2. Aplly Hier/Attr Change.
3. Load the data for 0BWTC_C05.

Variable in technical content

Hi all,
In the TECHNICAL CONTENT of my system I have a variable for the Exchange Rate Type (0RTYPE)called Z_RTYPE. When I run a query that use the currency conversion type this variable pops up in the variable screen, but it is not specifically added to my query.
Because this is not added to my query I cannot see this variable in the "Query Properties", which I need to be able to sort it.
Is there some way to add this variable from the technical content to my query?
Best regards,
TMV

Hi Pank,
For all the Queries/Workbooks for which you want to collect Stats and see them in Reports, you have to activate or mark them/relevant Infoproviders in Datawarehousing Workbench.Tools> BI Statistics Settings.
For the new statistics, you have to determine the objects for which you want to update the statistics and to what level of detail. You call this dialog from the Data Warehousing Workbench. It has changed completely from the previous statistics functionality.
In addition, you can manually assign a priority to the queries, InfoProviders and process chains. This priority is evaluated in the statistics. This can be used to establish a ranking or to exclude objects from the display in a report.
Please search in SAP Help, you will get more stuff.

Technical Content - Query Execution

Hi,
I have recently activated the Technical Content.
How do I identify the number of the times the query has been executed by the user? I found one column 'Number of Navigations' in the BW-Statistics workbook. What is this meant for ?
Thanks
Ramesh Ganji

hi Ramesh,
oss note 130696 -Performance trace in BW-Helps may explain the meaning.
to identify number of times query executed, there is keyfigure 0TCTSTAUIK - frequency,
check if helps business content query 0BWTC_C10_Q021
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/68/84353cf261303de10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
you can utilize infoobjects OTCTQUERY, 0TCTSTAUIK (frequency), 0TCTUSERNM, 0TCTNAVCTR from multiprovider 0BWTC_C10
most user-run queries
130696 -Performance trace in BW-Helps
Symptom
How can you monitor the performance of a query in BW?
Other terms
Performance, tracing, BW, query, report, time
Solution
1) Activate the saving of statistical data for each InfoCube
-> BW Admin Workbench - Tools -> BW Statistics for Infoproviders ->
Select the "OLAP" field for the InfoCube.
3) Execute report/query
2) Analyze the RSDDSTAT table using Transaction SE16
Access, for example, using the InfoCube name or the user name or the
timestamp
1. Times that are saved:
QTIMEOLAPINIT
Time of the initialization of the query (for example, loading query in OLAP, compiling if required)
QTIMEOLAP
Time that the OLAP processor required
QTIMEDB
Time the database + network required to select the transaction data. The time is measured from when the SQL command is send to the database, and it is stopped when the requested data reaches the application server. This time therefore includes the transport on the network and the selection on the database.
QTIMEVARDP
Time the user required to enter the variables
QTIMEUSER
Time the user required between the navigation steps
QTIMECLIENT
Time of data formatting in the frontend
The time measurment starts when the OLAP processor has completed the data formatting. The data is then sent to the frontend (EXCEL). The time is stopped when the frontend (BW add-in in EXCEL) has inserted all data in the worksheets (writing the contents and formatting cell, if required). The time therefore includes the transport on the network with the RFC connection and the output in the frontend.
TIMECHAVLREAD
Time required to read master data
TIMEAUTHCHECK
Runtime of the authorization check.
TIMEREST
Time that could not be assigned in more detail (should be equal to 0; if this is not the case, something in the internal processing of the OLAP processor occured differently than expected.)
QRUNTIMECATEGORY
Time of a navigation step (QTIMEOLAPINIT + QTIMEOLAP + QTIMEDB + QTIMEEXCEL + QTIMECHAVLREAD) rounded to the next higher scaling (1,10,100,1000 ... seconds). As of 1.2B, this is rounded to 1,2,3, ... 10,20,30,...100,200,300,... seconds.
1. Data regarding the size of the query:
QDBSEL
Number of the records that had to be read on the database
QDBTRANS
Number of records that the database transferred to the server
QNUMCELLS
Number of cells that were transferred to the frontend
QNUMRANGES
Number of formattings that were transferred to the frontend
RECCHAVLREAD
Number of master data records to be read
1. In addition, the following is saved:
QAGGRUSED
Name of the aggregate used
QNACHLESEN
Indicator: Query reads during each navigation step
1. Administrative information
STATUID
Key of the table; link in view RSDDSTAT_V
QSESSION
All data for a call of the frontend (between start and end of the frontend) is compounded with this unique GUID.
QNAVSTEP
The navigation steps of a QSESSION are numbered in ascending order
QNUMOLAPREADS
Number of read operations OLAP processor for each navigation step
HANDLE
In the frontend, each embedded query has a separate, sequential number (handle)
If you want to analyze a certain query, start it and filter the values from the table afterwards: Selection options: infocube, user name, queryid (can be determined in the report monitor (Transaction RSRT)-> Technical information). The STARTTIME (UTC time) tells you whether you have found the correct session.
You can recognize a session because the QSESSION is always assigned the same ID. The sequence of the navigation steps is saved in QNAVSTEP. However, you can also determine it using the STARTTIME.

Technical content for the BI statistics

Hi Guru's
What is technical content for the BI statistics and where do I find this???
I want to know what is the procedure to know which query is mostly executed in the system and by how many users.
Thanks & Regards.

Hi,
What is technical content for the BI statistics and where do I find this???
you can enable this facility
go to RSA1> tools >bw statistics>here we have two options like OLAP,WHM ,if you chk OLAP for the respective cube,now it will display all the related infromation i.e all the details of the queries pertaining to the cube
WHM will store all related data staging related information
want to know what is the procedure to know which query is mostly executed in the system and by how many users
the below cubes will meet your requirement
0BWTC_C10_Q011 OLAP Use per User
0BWTC_C10_Q506 OLAP Use per User (Total Number of Records)
0BWTC_C10_Q505 OLAP Use per User (Total Time)
0BWTC_C10_Q503 OLAP Use per User (Time)
chk the below link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/88/3e1f3b5839e10fe10000000a114084/content.htm
Once you install technical content you can use the features of BW statistics etc..

Steps in Technical Content (0TCT*)

Hello,
Please let me know the steps are correct or something is missing.
1) Activate the Technical content just like business content (say activating cube 0TCT_C03: Data Manager Statistics )
2) Check the extractor in BW, t-code RSA3 (self system) to see number of records
3) Load the data using infopackage and schedule delta
4) Run the standard query on this cube
Just need some clarification on "Activating Data Transfers for BW Statistics". This can be found in menubar Tools --> BI Statistics Setting. I can understand that here you can activate and de-activate individually the processes for saving and transferring data. But if we dont do this, can't we see the data in reports. Is this mandatory?
Please advice
Regards

Datasources Missing when Installing Technical Content for BI Admin Cockpit

Hi,
I have installed the Technical Content for BI Admin Cockpit in our QA systems, for BI7, using SPRO, and it seems that there are some missing datasources, transfer rules, etc.,
The one's that are missing are:
=> 0TCTPRCSVAR_TEXT
=> 0TCTPRCSVAR_ATTR
=> 0TCTBWOBJCT_TEXT
=> 0TCTBWOBJCT_ATTR
Does anyone know if this is a known issue, that these are not available?
Please let me know if they're required, and if there's a fix to get them back.
Thanks,
John

Hi John,
In my system the symptom is the same. So I just installed them myself in RSA1->BI Content.
I don't think it's a big problem because the queries on the MultiProviders can run without these master data. For example, you may find the text of query is missing but you can see query's technical name.
I remember when I activate 0TCTBWOBJCT_TEXT and 0TCTPRCSVAR_TEXT, these datasources are in BI 7 version but there's no transformation. So I create myself.
Please let us know if you have other questions.
Regards,
Frank

Technical Content BI Stat`s missing Transfer Rules for 0TCT_CA1

Hi,
I installed the new 7.0 technical content and had several glitches. Some are fixed with the new SP16, that we installed.
We are at BI Cont 7.03, patch 8.
There is no business content for the Frontend & OLAP Statistics (highly aggregated) 0TCT_CA1 transfer rules - although the cube and communication structure are there - as well as the virtual and multi cube with a lot of queries etc.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks!
Kathleen

Hi Kathleen Cooke ,
I am having similar issue now, can you please let me know if you know the solution for the below problem..
I am trying to activate the Business Content for BW Statistics, but the datasource and the Transfer Rules are missing for the 0TCTPRCSVAR_TEXT and also a couple of BW Statistics objects...
I am on
BI_CONT 703, level 0005, Support Package SAPKIBIIP5
SAP_BW 700, level 0012, Support Package SAPKW70012
Thank You,
Varun.

Reactivation or Transportaion ??? for BI Technical Content? Dev-- Prod

Hi,
I had activated Technical content in Develop system and there by All Queries,DataTargets and Process chains were activated in the system!
Now what shud i do to have the same in production???
shud i do the same steps in production or Transport every object to production??
Raj

Hi,
Since you have activted everything in Develop system, the next step will be to check if they meet your requirements or you need to enhance or customize them.
Once done you need to transport them to Quality and test them.
After the testing is over you can transport them to Production.
You dont directly activate them in Production.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
