Use of DSO Before Infocubes

Hi Experts ,
Its a general practice that i have seen is alwways data is loaded from the source to DSO and then DSO to Infocubes. Why data is generally not loaded directly to infocube?? What are the advantages if we are first loading into DSO and then into Cubes ??
Sam

Thank you all for your support.
I have developed a workaround.
I only wanted to use planning on DSO to avoid the workaround.
Many thanks.

Delta loading procedure from Write Optimized DSO to Infocube

Hi All,
We are using Write optimized DSO in our project to which I am loading data using Standard DSO 0FI_GL_12
From Write optimized DSO, we are loading delta records into Infocube, please provide your inputs to my following questionnaire:
1) I am quite interested to know how the delta records gets loaded into infocube whenever we are using 'Write optimized DSO' as we don't have any image concept in Optimized DSO
Ex: If am using Standard DSO, we have Change log table and image concept will allow to get updated value to Cube
let us assume
Active Table
111            50
111            70 (overwrite)
Change Log Table
111            -50        (X -- Before Image)
111             70    ( ' ' -- After Image) symbol for after image is 'Space'
So if we load this record to the target as a delta the above two records from change log table will get loaded to the CUBE and Cube will have 70 as the updated record
If am using 'Write Optimized',
Active Table
111            50
111            70 (overwrite)
When this record loaded to the cube, as Info Cube is always having 'Additive' feature so the total value will 50+70 =120 which is wrong?
Correct me what feature will work here to get updated value as '70' into Cube from Write Optimized DSO'
2)As the data source is delta capable and having 'ADDITIVE' delta process, only the delta records based on REQUEST ID are loaded into Info Cube with the updated key figure value?
Thanks for your inputs and much appreciated.

Madhu

Hi Madhu,
In best practice, we use WODSO in Initial layer and then Standard DSO. Just for mass data load/staging purpose.
In best practice : Data source ----> WODSO ---> std. DSO
In your case : Data source ----> Std.DSO -----> WODSO.
In both cases if data load design is not in accurate way, then your cube will have incorrect entries.
For ex: today 9 am : 111, 50 (in active table)
Data load to cube, same day 11 am : then cube will have 111    50.
Same day, value got changed in std. DSO 1 pm :   111   70(over write function @ active table).
Same day/next day if you load data to cube, it will have 2 records one is with value 50 and other would be 70. So to avoid such scenarios we should plan load in accurate way. Else make change your DTP settings as ‘source table : change log table.
Coming to your case:
Once after the load to Std. DSO, load data to WODSO by changing the DTP settings ‘Delta Init.Extraction from’ : Change log.
Now data available @WODSO from change log table, then you load to cube In delta mode.

Problem in transfering data from DSO to InfoCube

Hi,
I am trying to transfer data from DSO to Infocube. But it is giving the following message.
Last delta update is not yet completed
Therefore, no new delta update is possible.
You can start the request again
if the last delta request is red or green in the monitor (QM activity)
It is not allowing to load data to InfoCube from DSO. I checked the request number. But there is no request number in InfoCube. If request no is there I can delete the request from InfoCube and delete the data mart status in DSO and reload again.But there is no request id in IC. So plz guide me how I can tranfer data to InfoCube overcoming this problem.
Actually further updata was running from DSO to IC. But it failed. Executing Function Module : RSPC_PROCESS_FINISH, I set the chain green before loading
data to InfoCube. So it starts executing the next chain. So there is no request id. So plz guide me how I can retain this request id.
Edited by: Purushotham Reddy on Jan 28, 2008 11:19 AM

Hi Reddy,
Make the QM Status Red of the failed request even if it is red.
and then run the same infopackage used in the chain. This will ask for repeat of last delta.
If this process is understood to u then its fine otherwise read below:
the other option is check if this failed request is present in PSA. If it is present in PSA then update the failed request from PSA, here u wont need to do a repeat of last delta. This Option is easier. this u can do from the ,manage tab of the data source I think this u might be surely knowing....
Assign Points if it helps u.....
Thanks,
Nagesh.

Help needed in storing data in DSO or InfoCube

Hi Experts ,
   I have a set of data which comes from R/3 in the following Format:
FG     Base Model     Option 1     Option 2     Option 3
FG1     BM 1                       Opt1       Opt2         opt3
FG2     BM1                       Opt 1       Opt2        Opt 4
FG3     BM3                       Opt5       Opt6        Opt7
The data gets stored in the PSA in the above format.
But i want to load the data from the PSA to the DSO or InfoCube in the following format.I want that if i do a display data in the DSO or the Infocube the output should look like the below :
FG     Base Model     Option
FG1     BM1                      Opt1
FG1     BM1                      Opt2
FG1     BM1                      Opt3
FG2     BM1                      Opt1
FG2     BM1                      Opt2
FG2     BM1                      Opt4
FG3     BM3                      Opt5
FG3     BM3                      Opt6
FG3     BM3                      Opt7
Is there any way to do this please help. Thanks in advance...

Hi Samir,
Use transformation rule group in the transformations.
Here is one of the examples...the way you wanted.

Error while creating transformation from DSO to InfoCube

Hi Gurus,
When i am creating tranformation from DSO to InfoCube getting an error, " The unit/currency 'Source Currency 0CURRENCY ' with the value 'space' is assigned to the key figure 'Source Key Fig. ZAMT_PLC ' with the value
'8.50 ' "
ZAMT_PLC is created with 0CURRENCY.
On checking we found that there is no value stored for Currency field in table level itself. Now in this case how do we avoid this error.
I want to know why is this we need to have value for 0Currency field???
Thanks & Regards,
Anup

Hello Anup,
If you load a key figure which has a unit assigned to it,
then for every records where the key figure has a valid value
(value 0) the corresponding unit has to be delivered as well.
Additionally please check note 1366474 regarding the RSTRAN 312
error message:
"The corrections contained in Note 1165168 are incomplete.
Depending on the sequence during loading, the system may not issue error
message RSTRAN 312 even though data regarding the assigned unit or
currency "space" is incorrect."
This means actually, that the system should have issued the RSTRAN312
error message even before the upgrade, but for some reason this
check found no issues in some constellations. This means furthermore
that your system behaved incorrectly in the past, that this
error message was not triggered if you loaded key figures without
any unit.
I'm sorry to tell you, but the system behaves and works as designed
as it should be even before the correction from note 1366474.
Please change your transformations for key figures which
have a unit assigned, that the unit field is filled correctly.
with the corresponding units, otherwise the system will abort
the processing of the data with the above mentioned error
message.
Best Regards,
Des

Error while loading data from DSO to Infocube for 0Fiscvarnt

Hi All,
Could you please help me any one to resolve the below error.
*"Fixed value discrepancy with InfoObject 0FISCVARNT value 'K4 ', expected 'K2 " (MessageClass RSAU).
We have two Staging DSO's upto Second level DSO FiscalyearVariant both K2 and K4 updating, but second level DSO to infocube data loading we had a above problem. all are direct mapping, no routiunes or constants at all transformation level.
But we checked R/3 side both K2 and K4 variants are available.
Thanks,
Ramesh

Hi,
It's a constant issue I met before. I guess you have assigned a constant value K2 in your target ODS.
Please change the constant back. Go to RSA1, change target ODS, find 0FISCVARNT, right click it and choose 'Provider-specific Properties', remove K2 from 'Constant'.
Now try the reload and I'm sure no more issues. If you really want the constant then you have to change data or transformation.
p.s. Don't forget re-activating transformations and DTP
Regards,
Frank

Error in uploading data from DSO to Infocube in 3.5(rsa1old)

While uploading data from DSO to Infocube, I selected Initial update option
In schedule tab when I clicked start, an error occured it says:
Delete init request
REQU_D4YTAGX8PEOUQJLSKOEPH9EV before running
init. again with same selection.
Can anyone let me know how should I delete that request.
Thanks,
Soujanya.

Hi,
Go to RSRQ and enter the request then execute. This should bring you to Monitor u2013 Administration Workbench. From there you will see the InfoSource (usually has u201C8u201D as a prefix). Get the InfoSource name. Go to RSA1 to find the InfoSource. From here it gets a bit tricky. Go to the datasource and drill down to the related InfoPackage. Go to Infopackage scheduling. Then go to Scheduler Menu, the Initialization Options for Source System should be open. You can see from there the request with error. Let me know if this answers your question.

What is the difference between DSo and Infocube

Hello,
Kindly tell me what is the difference between DSO and Infocube?
And please tell me how to take the desicion that in whichi case we can use DSO and in which case we can use Infocube..

Hi ,
DataStore object serves as a storage location for consolidated and cleansed transaction data or master data on a document (atomic) level.
This data can be evaluated using a BEx query.
A DataStore object contains key fields (for example, document number/item) and data fields that can also contain character fields (for example, order status, customer) as key figures. The data from a DataStore object can be updated with a delta update into InfoCubes and/or other DataStore objects or master data tables (attributes or texts) in the same system or across different systems.
Unlike multidimensional data storage using InfoCubes, the data in DataStore objects is stored in transparent, flat database tables. The system does not create fact tables or dimension tables.
Use
The cumulative update of key figures is supported for DataStore objects, just as it is with InfoCubes, but with DataStore objects it is also possible to overwrite data fields. This is particularly important with document-related structures. If documents are changed in the source system, these changes include both numeric fields, such as the order quantity, and non-numeric fields, such as the ship-to party, status and delivery date. To reproduce these changes in the DataStore objects in the BI system, you have to overwrite the relevant fields in the DataStore objects and set them to the current value. Furthermore, you can use an overwrite and the existing change log to render a source delta enabled. This means that the delta that is further updated to the InfoCubes, for example, is calculated from two successive after-images.
An InfoCube describes (from an analysis point of view) a self-contained dataset, for example, for a business-orientated area. You analyze this dataset in a BEx query.
An InfoCube is a set of relational tables arranged according to the star schema: A large fact table in the middle surrounded by several dimension tables.
Use
InfoCubes are filled with data from one or more InfoSources or other InfoProviders. They are available as InfoProviders for analysis and reporting purposes.
Structure
The data is stored physically in an InfoCube. It consists of a number of InfoObjects that are filled with data from staging. It has the structure of a star schema.
The real-time characteristic can be assigned to an InfoCube. Real-time InfoCubes are used differently to standard InfoCubes.
ODS versus Info-cubes in a typical project scenario

why we use ods?
why is psa & ods nessasary

Data not loading for new Fields InfoObjects from DSO to InfoCube

Hi Gurus -
               I have a DataSource that is providing data to existing DSO then to Infocube. My client asked me to added couple fields to DataSource and get the data to DSO and then DSO to InfoCube.
Here is the Old scenarion:   DataSource -> DSO -> InfoCube.
Here is the New Scenation:
     DataSource ( Added new fields) -> DSO (added new InfoObjects for Corresponding DataSource FIelds) -> InfoCube( Added new InfoObjects to mapped from DSO)
I added the new fields to DataSource, added the corresponding InfoObjects to DSO and InfoCube.
I successfully loaded data from DataSource to DSO. Data is populating for the new Fields/InfoObjects in DSO.
But when I load data from DSO to InfoCube, I don't see any data for New Fields InfoObjects in the InfoCube.
Data from DSO to InfoCube is loading fine for the Old InfoObjects Fields but not for the New InfoObjects I added in InfoCube.
-Sonali

Hi,
Why dont u debug the load through DTP debugging and check what happens to the source field and target field once it passes through the transformation. You can easily trace back where the fields are becoming blank.
The loads which you have mentioned earlier did it have values in Added Records/Transferred Records column for the cube.

How to Map the Unit field in case of DSO and INFOCUBE

Dear Experts,
I have a issue ,Please help me to solve this
I have DSO as provider ,
And, i have to map transformations btw the Datasource and DSO.
In generic Data source, i have unit fields like BASME,MEINS (Quantity units) & STWAE (currency field)
and normal Quantity fields like KWMNG,OAUME(quantity related),OAUWE (value related).
In DSO data fields as Key figure info objects like 0Quantity (which have 0Unit as unit of measure) and some other key figures which have there respective unit of measure in info object definition.
So you Please tell me how to map the Quantity ,Amounts, unit fields to key figures that we have.
(How it will be for both DSO and Info cube is there any difference?)
Edited by: AnjunathNaidu on Jan 18, 2012 1:20 PM

Navasamol ,
If it is works ,will u please tell me what is the difference ,if the transformations btw data source and DSO and
what is the difference btw data source and info cube and btw DSO to Infocube or cube to cube .
And i have seen the Quantity fields and there respective unit fields are mapped directly to key figure info object
in case of Info cube . Its working fine .
If only 1:1 mapping allowed in DSO data fields key figures and there respective unit of measure characteristic.
why this difference btw DSO and Info cube can any one explain me in detail.
Expecting your valuable suggestions.
Thanks & Regards,

Issue while loading of data from DSO to InfoCube

Hi Experts,
Can you tell me what might root casue if data is coming into DSO from R3 its correct and fine as required but while loading it to InfoCube from DSO its showing wrong data like some of Line Items that were closed were shown open in Cube AND also KF values were not right
Also there is no Routine code involved b/w DSO and InfoCube.
Thanks in adv .

Hope you didnt delete some req from DSO without deleting change log . This might cause inconsistency.
If so , delete data from dso by right click delete data and reload .

I have upgraded my iPhone using IO6. Before doing this operation the advises to me is to back up the phone, which I did using iCloud.
When I tried to restore the back it does not access my password which I have given to restore my password.

if you cant remember the password of your back-up encryption, you can't back it up
You will have to restore as a new phone

It's a phishing attempt to get your account and payment details, it's not from Apple - if you clicked on the links in it and entered your details then you should change your password immediately e.g. by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad and selecting 'view apple id' on the popup and signing into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com
If you still have the email then you could forward it to Apple : [email protected]

Did this back along to mine. Plug it into itunes on your pc (or Mac) and click on the ipod icon on the left hand side. When the device options come up on the main screen, click on restore. Follow the steps and it should restore to factory settings. If you had icloud activated on the ipod all previous purchases should be in the cloud and ready to download onto the ipod afte rit has been restored to factory settings, otherwise you'll have to download them all again. Hope it helped.

How to use Time Machine before and after installing a new hard drive

So basically I'm buying a new hard drive for my Macbook pro and I have a lot of files on my computer that I would like to save. I have never used Time Machine before so I need help on how to set it up before AND after installing the harddrive so my files get transferred onto the new hard drive. Thanks in advance

Me, I would never use Time Machine to do this. What I'd suggest you do is get an exterior enclosure for your new drive. Then use either Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper to clone your existing drive to your new drive. Once done, verify your clone is bootable & all of your data present. Then swap drives & use your old drive for Time Machine backups(after erasing it). Then get another drive & exterior enclosure to regularly clone your new drive to.
Unless he was swapping for a lower capacity HDD or to a lower capacity SSD, then the old drive would make a lousy Time Machine disk. However, whenever I swap out a disk I do exactly what you do. CCC to get the ol drive onto a new one. Test by starting up to the new (but still external drive). Then replace the internal drive.
I usually just sell the old drive on eBay. My Time Machine backup is always 2X the size of the internal drive, which I believe is a bit above recommendations, but works for me. The price of large external drives is almost the same as smaller internal ones.
