Update rules mapping

Hi Friends,
I have ZSTCSDF coming from transfer structure now I need to map this field with InfoCube field ZCUSTOMER.
ZSTCSDF is using ZCUSTOMER as a reference characteristic.
If it is an attribute then I can map that in update rules but it is reference characteristic instead.
Can anyone suggest me what to do in this?
Thanks,
John.

Hi Friend,
I already have ZSTCSDF this field. This gfield is using 0CUSTOMER as reference characteristic.
So, I have ZSTCSDF in communication structure.
my question is can I map ZSTCSDF and 0CUSTOMER one to one in update rules characteristics.
by referenceing source characteristic in update rules mapping options.
Thanks,
John.

Purchasing cube designing, update rule mapping for 0calday

Hi All,
Iam designing cube for Purchasing module in BW. Iam having doubt in mapping for 0calday in update rules, is it with document date or scheduline date. I have searched in SAP cube 0PUR_C01, it is mapped with 0SCHED_DATE( schedule line date). How the difference comes when we choose document date and schedule line date.
FYI, we are using only schedule line data source, which is giving relevant information.
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,
Please note:
0SCHED_DATE: The schedule line date is the day on which the scheduled quantity of the material is to be delivered.
0DOC_DATE: The date on which document has been craeted.
Use the first one for purchasing.
Thanks...

Hi,
I have added two new fileds into the view and then replicated in bw side.The two fields mapping correctly in Transfer rules.Getting error for two fileds while adding in the update rule.
Thanks,
Jayapal.

Hi Jayapal,
Hope, SAP Note 588247 will help you to resolve this issue. It is giving "Rule incorrect" error, may be because of Infoobject 0RECORDMODE is ignored.

Update rules mapping display

I need to check the update rules and its mapping for objects in production.
I clicked the next arrow button to see the mapping but not able to . It is good enought for me to just see it in display mode.
How can i see the mappings in display mode in Production system?

Hi,
Please double click on the update rule and it show the update rule in display mode .If it is a keyfigure you can see the mapping for all keyfigures and click on the Ty symbol then you can see the mapping for charachterstics.If it is a ODS then you can see the mapping for all char and whne you will double click on Ty symbol you can see the mapping for key fields in ODS.

Date to Calendar Week in Update Rules

Hi Experts,
Does anyone of you know how/where BI/BW do the mapping when translating date in to a week in update rules?
Thanks in advance,
Rose

Hi Kazmi and Ram,
In Update Rules, in Time Ref tab, we can specify the source field e.g. posting date, to get the calendar Year/Week time characteristics. My question is where does the update rule get the week basing on the source date?
This question is brought up to me because week days can be different from country to country. e.g. in US it is sunday to saturday and in Norway it is Monday to sunday. If we do reporting that consolidates data from US and Norway and probably and use week as part of that report, then we have an issue.
Can you please let me know how then the update rules mapped the date to week. If you have similar issues, can you please let me know how you address it?
Best Regards,
Rose

Map 0MATERIAL to ZMATERIAL in Update Rules

Hi all,
I have two separate InfoCubes for two different Regions. And because the both regions have overlapping Materials, I am asked to create a ZMATERIAL for the new region (Different Source System).I cannot compound 0MATERIAL to Source System since one region has already gone LIVE. 0MATERIAL is Mapped to MATNR in the Transfer Rules. If I map 0MATERIAL to ZMATERIAL in the Update Rules would that work?
Or would I need to change the mapping in the transfer rule level from MATNR to ZMATERIAL? That would mean to add ZMATERIAL into the InfoSource as well.
Cheers

You can able to MAP .. That's not a problem
The data for 2 regions passes thru Transfer rules .. thru MATNR -->0MATERIAL
Now you have 2 update rules for 0MATERIAL AND ZMATERIAL as well
UR1 - 0MATERIAL - 0MATERIAL
UR2 - 0MATERIAL - ZMATERIAL
How do you differentiate the data has to update particular region to particular material ?
If you are able to write Routine in update rule to update particular reg1 to 0material and reg2 to zmaterial .. it should be ok

Mapping in update rules

Hi experts,
could anyone please advice on how to map in update rules for the following requirement.
I have a generic extractor, with Order date,Billing date and Delivery Date fields.
to map { Order date,Billing date, Delivery Date} - three different fields from Data source to one 'Date' info object in ODS.
If I have Order record -
> I have to get 'order date' in the
'Date' Info object of ODS.
similarly 'Date' info object should be filled as and when I have
Billing and Delivery records, it should store Billing date and Delivery Date.
Please advice

Hi,
If you are on the BI 7.0, you can achieve this by creating three different rule groups.
In 3.5 you can do this by splitting keyfigures:

Unable to map Update Rule with u201CMaster data attribu201D option

Hi,
Does anybody know the reason why sometimes, in update rules to an ODS, I cannot map an InfoObject with the option u201CMaster data attribu201D?
I have the characteristic in the ODS, and for another update rule, to the same ODS, I am able to map this field correctly, but for a specific rule, the u201CMaster data attribu201D field appears in blank when I press F4.
Strange this behaviouru2026
Can anybody help me with this issue?
Thanks,
Best Regards,
Joana

Hi Shanthi,
I didn't insert the InfoObject as an InfoProvider.
The problem is that I have two update rules for the same ODS object. For one I can map the characteristic correctly, and for the other, when I press F4 in the "Master Data Attrib", no characteristics appear.
Thanks,
Joana

Direct mapping in updates rules not functioning as expected

Hi experts,
I have a character string with only digits (NUMC) which is mapped in udpate rules of a ODS. Its a direct mapping from another ODS. Inspite of that, we are having scenarios where the source ODS is filled and the character in the destination ODS is coming as empty. The source ODS is looking up that value from another ODS.
I am wondering why is it so. I am in 3.5 enviornment.

Is it just this field coming up as blank or other fields too,
Do you any start routine or any kind of filtering in place in the update rules.
Just try to simulate a update and see if you can find anything.
/people/pavan.bayyapu/blog/2006/09/06/debugging-data-upload-in-bw
Also make sure you "No Update" is not selected in update rules for this field.

Fields missing in Update rules

I am creating snap shot DSO for inventory management and after that i created the update rules for it linking it to the info source 2LIS_03_BX. When i do this i am missing the info objects that i created to include in the DSO. How do i solve this issue as those info objects are very important and i have to create the routines for it.
I have got the units for those fields and they are mapped but the info objects itself are missing.
Thanks for any help in advance
Naveen

HI Naveen,
Yes, you can include the missing infoobject in DSO. for that you need to follow bellow steps:
a). Delete the data from DSO.
b). you have to include the infoobject in DSO.
Double click on DSO>select chage mode->select keyfield /data field node--->right click select Infoobject Direct Input.
c). Activate the DSO
Brief Description about 2LIS_03_BX :
The 2LIS_03_BX is used to extract an opening stock balance on a detailed level (material, plant, storage location and so on). At this moment, the opening stock is the operative stock in the source system. "At this moment" is the point in time at which the statistical setup ran for infosource 2LIS_03_BX.Loading the opening stock balance InfoSource 2LIS_03_BX into data target.In the InfoPackage, choose the upload mode u201CCreate opening balanceu201D.

DTP Vs Update Rules Error!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Hi guys,
I have a scenerio , where I need to have data from 2 DSOs in to one combined DSO. Lets Says the 2 DSOs as DSO A and DSO B. and the Third as DSO C.
I want to get DSO C Structure as exactly as DSO A. and DSO B structure is only few fiew fields from DSO A (Key Fields are same). I have loaded the data in to DSO A and DSO B using Transformation and DTP . Now How to load DSO C data I mean combined data of DSO A and B.
1.If I create update Rules to DSO C using DSO A and DSO B. Iam not getting any data in to DSO C. (Do I need to make any settings in DSOs to update the data of A and B in to C ?).
2.If I create 2 transformations between DSO A -C and DSO B-C. I am sure I need to create DTPs to get the corresponding data. When I do that Iam getting 2 separate sets of data for DSO C. But I need data as one set from DSO A & B in to C.
Please help me ASAP and let me know if you need more information on it.
Thanks in advance

Harish,
as i told you earlier, if the fields you are looking from DSO B is not available in DSO A, you can create transformation usign respective DSO if your Key fields are same in both DSO A and DSO B..
assume...F1, F2, F3 are key fields in both DSO A and B.
DSO A:
F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7.
DSO B:
F1, F2, F3, F8, F9.
DSO C:
F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9.
If you load data from DSO A to DSO C, it will create one record in DSO C with updation of F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, F6, F7(because f1, f2, f3, f4, f5, f6, f7 only mapped).
If you load data from DSO B to DSO C, it will <b>Update</b> existing entry using Key fields for other 2 fields(which mapped from DSO B to DSO C).
Change log table of DSO C update with 2 records(i'm talking about Standard table).
write optimized works differently.
all the best.

Error when activating update rule

HI BI Expert,
The original transfer rule for 2LIS_11_VAITM was deleted accidently and I created new one and mapped with the existing infosource. The system always generates the following error at the time of transport to another client.
Error when activating update rule D1GOAPD9O0P9CFOY8KBSOUDFA
Activation of the update rules for ZO_SOP_1 ZT_SOP_SALO_ITM
IC=ZO_SOP_1 IS=ZT_SOP_SALO_ITM error when checking the update rules.
Would you kindly be able to suggest me what steps I need to take so as to correct this issue?
Thanks.

Hi,
When you say that update rule was accidently deleted, was that attached to transport request and transported to your QA & PRD at that time.
Because it may happen that, your old rules are still there in QA & PRD and the new rules are failing to overwrite that.
If it is the case, then you may have to open the client for QA & PRD and delete the existing update rule (doesnt sound good practice though), and then create a fresh update rule and transport.

Vikram.

"Error when activating update rule" after changing ODS key

Hi Gurus,
I have problem when transporting in productive system an existing ODS & the update rule linked. The message is : "Error when activating update rule".
This is when i move one field from the key to a simple field of the ODS.
Before transporting requests, i deleted data in the ODS by right-click on ODS --> Request tab --> select the request --> click on delete....
I don't understand because i did the same in Qual environment and everything is OK : transport request & ODS loading...
Please help.....

Hello,
Please try to check/perform the following steps:
1- You must ensure for the update rule have mapping between infosources
   and ODS/CUBEs correct, this means that also these objects need
   to be of the same version in the source system of the transport as in
   target system.
2- Please ensure all infoobjects in the cube are active.Please
   reactivate all the objects again in source system.
3- Ensure all infoobjects are found in the communication structure.
4- Please try to collect the update rule via BW transport connection
   with the grouping option "only necessary objects" and then transport
   those objects again.
Could you please reactivate the infocube and its update rules again
and then create a new transport for this infocube and transport it
again.
Best regards,
Paula Csete

How to add a new char in Update rule

Hi Gurus:
I copied update rules from an old cube. This new cube is a copy of old cube - almost.
One of the char is missing in the new cube when compared to old cube. There is a small update routine for that char which I need to introduce to new cube.
My problem is, I'm not able to figure out how to add the new char in the update rule & start the mapping process..
Thanks & Regards

Dear Bhanu: This is what happened.
When I copied - it defaulted this char with what present in comm structure. Basically the old cube has a routine for this char...
And the position of this char in the update rule for chars..got realigned.
I'm sorry - I should have check it properly.
Thanks a LOT for your time & input...I will assign the points
Best Regards
