Use of infoobject in multiprovider

HI Gurus,
What is the use of infoobject in multiprovider. I created a multiprovider which has one infocube and one infoboject. ZCOMP_CO is the master data and created as a datatarget. In infocube, ZCOMP_CO is in the dimension.
1. I assigned the ZCOMP_CO to infocube and excuted the multiprovider.
2. I assigned the ZCOMP_CO to both infocube and infoobject and excuted the multiprovider. Both the result for 1 and 2 are same.
So , what is the use of assigning the infoobject in multiprovider. And how the multiprovider will extract the data.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Multiprovider with InfoCube and InfoObject: You have an InfoCube with your products and sales. You combine this InfoCube with the 0MATERIAL InfoObject. This allows you to display any "slow-moving items", since products that do not result in sales are also displayed.

  • How to use currency infoobject

    Hi SAP Gurus,
    Can u please tell me how to use currency infoobject.I have already created currency key figure ,by assigning fixed currency INR.but what to do while transformation and datasource?Do i need to use any rule in transformation?
    Please tell me.
    Regards
    Meenu

    Hi,
    Thanks for the solution.But I am unable to use fixed currency info objects.The scanario is:
    In Infoobjects: i have 4 characterstics i.e Mat Number,Mat Name,Mat description and 1 key figure i.e Zprice which has fixed currency INR.
    In my flat file there are 5 fields: Mat Number, Mat Name,Mat Description,Price and Currency
    When I run PSA it executes fine except Currency field is blank and when I run infocube I don't even get currency field, but get the data for rest of the field.
    Also, In transformation,rules detail I have assigned fixed currency as INR.
    please tell me what do i need to do to get all the records in infocube.
    Regards

  • Inactive InfoObjects in MultiProvider based on InfoSet after Upgrade NW04s

    We are upgrading our sandbox environment from BW 3.5 to NetWeaver 2004s or BI 7.0. We have done a technical upgrade and are currently using the obsolete authorizations. In testing we have discovered that our MultiProviders that are based on InfoSets contain inactive InfoObjects. Has anyone else had this problem. In running a query that uses this MultiProvider we get the message to activate our MultiProvider again.
    Is it necessary to activate all existing MultiProviders based on InfoSets after upgrading to NetWeaver 2004s?
    Thanks for your help,
    Jeri

    Hi Jeri,
    Yes this is sometimes required.
    Infosets are sometimes deactivated because additional checks are available after the upgrade or because new attributes become part of your info-object.
    When you change something to an underlying data provider of a multiprovider, the multiprovider is automatically inactivated and you have to reactivate it.
    I also had this problem with other upgrades.
    In general, activation is not too much of an effort.
    Please assign points if this solved your problem,
    Best Regards,

  • Use of Dimensions in Multiprovider?

    Hi Experts,
    Can any one let me know while creating Multiprovider,why we should again select the infoobjects(from sub cubes) in to Dimensions(in MP)?Is it necessary?what are the Pros and Cons of this concept?
    Thanks
    James

    Hi James,
    The dimensions have no significance in the multiprovider, since during the query execution the data is fetched from the data targets involved int he multiprovider.
    What I normally do is create one dimension for each of the data provider in the multiprovider and include all the characteristic's of that data provider in that dimension. The common chars are included in the first dimension and the next dimensions will have only the chars that are unique to that data provider.
    In toto the number of dimensions will be equal to or less than the data providers included in the multiprovider. The query performance will be decided based on the basic cubes dimensions and not based on the dimensions of the multiprovider.
    Assign points if useful

  • Cannot add InfoObjects into Multiprovider definition??

    Hi all,
    I had created a Multiprovider somtime back and am trying to add a Time Unit and some Characteristics from my InfoCube into the Multiprovider using Drag & Drop. But I cannot drag & drop anything into the Multiprovider Dimensions. Is there some solution for this? I'm workingin BI 7.0.
    Thanks. points will be awarded.
    SD

    Hi Sebastian,
    Instead of Drag and drop, try giving the name of the Infoobject directly.
    Hope it works.

  • Use of 0REFPER in multiprovider reporting with virtual provider in BCS

    Hi all,
    We're using the multiprovider reporting option in BCS 6.0 / BI7.
    As you may know the data in the 'closed periods' provider is populated with closed requests, which need not necessarily be for individual periods (this is different to BCS 4/BW3.5)
    As far as I understand from my discussion with the BI team, in the 'closed periods' provider each reference period is populated with ALL data for the year (so a January record appears in 0refper = 01,2008 and also 0refper = 02,2008, whereas a February record only appears in 0refper = 02,2008).
    Reporting on a specific reference period will provide data relevant to the hierarchies effective at that reference period.
    BUT when the virtual provider is taken in to account for March, surely the reference period is now 03,2008 - so how will the multiprovider choose any records from the 'closed periods' cube?
    What I'm not sure about is how the BI report should be structured in terms of 0REFPER selection to ensure that the relevant closed period data is selected alongside the virtual provider data.
    I haven't found anything in the help documentation, or the SDN forum - has anyone found a useful source of guidance from SAP?
    If not, has anyone got experence of this?
    (of course, points will be provided for all useful answers).

    Thanks Dan,
    I would caution about the use of 0refper for the multiprovider scenario.
    Have you used the multiprovider scenario? There is good documentation from SAP on how to set it up but nothing on how the queries/reports should be built. When BCS generates the multiprovider and virtual provider, it adds in 0refper (and the others)
    It is my understanding that the closed-period records are stored with cons group as opposed to those of the virtual infoprovider where cons group is only included for posting levels 02, 12, 22 and 30.
    + Thus if the organization/cons groups are changed, it could cause reporting issues unless the closed-period infoprovider is repopulated using the new or changed cons groups.+This was my understanding too, but the BI team are telling me it is NOT required in BCS 6 / BI7.
    I will investigate further an post my analysis back here.
    In the meantime if anyone else has experience of the multiprovider scenario reporting, espcially in BCS 6 / BI7. Then please do post your experiences here.

  • Aggregation Issue when we use Hierarchy InfoObject in the Bex Query.

    Hi All,
          I have created a bex Query having some Char's and one hierarchy Infoobject in Rowa and RKF's. I haven't used any Exception aggreagation Objects in RKF. but, when I execute a query in the Over all result it's showing the Exceptional aggregation based on the Hierarchy Object.
    Briefly Illustrated my problem here.
    OrgUnitHierarchy     EmpID       RKF
    Root                          1                1
    RootA1                     1                1
    RootA2                     1                1
    Root                          2                1
    RootB1                     2                1
    RootB2                     2                1
    Root                          3                1
    RootC1                     3                1
    RootC2                     3                1
    Over all result                              3
    In the above example the Sum of the RKF is 9. but its showing only 3. When I Connect this with crystal report is the sum of RKF is showing 9. Please help me which is the correct one and why it's not aggregating child nodes?
    Is there any Config needs to be done to aggregate all the nodes of the Hierarchy? Thanks for your support in advance
    Regards,

    Hi,
    is this related to BEx Analyzer or BEx Web Reporting ? if so then I would suggest to post the entry into BEx Suite forum as this forum is for the SAP Integration Kit from BusinessObjects.

  • Use of  RRKMULTIPROVHINT in multiprovider

    Hi All,
    Could you explain me what is the use of the above table?
    I was reading a document named "How to create efficient multiprovider queries". It says
    In the RRKMULTIPROVHINT table, you can specify the MultiProvider and a
    characteristic for partitioning and if a query has restrictions on this characteristic, the, OLAP processor will check which InfoCubes can return data for the query. The data,manager can then completely ignore the remaining InfoCubes. This is handled by the OLAP processor.
    What I would like to know in our office we have one multi provider where data comes 3 basic infocubes( say 1 cube has asia data,2 nd one europe, 3rd one africa data). How can I use this table so that when user selects example  Asia content (variable created for continent), it should use corresponding infocube only?
    Thanks in advance

  • How to use the infoobject in multicube?

    I want to use the attribute of a infoobject in the query, but this infoobject is not in any of the base cube of my multicube, this infoobject is the combination of 0material and 0country which all in my base cube, how can I do this? I know I can add this into my base cube and reload data, but I do not want to reload. Experts, please advise.

    Thanks for your information, can you please give me more help on how to create such as infoset? Multicube can not be conponent of infoset, so I want to create a infoset links the infoobject and base cubes first and then add it back to the origina multicube, but how shall I join this infoobject with these basic cube? only link the 0material/0country from basis cube and infoobject? Anything need to link in terms of the KY?

  • Using a Infoobject (fiscweek) in columns and rows

    Hi SDN,
    We have a requirement where Zfiscweek of type NUMC to be shown in columns so I have restricted it with a char variable (user entry, and gave a offset value range as 52 weeks) i.e, if a user enters particular week then the O/P must have 52 weeks,
    And
    one row showing past 8 weeks of quantity (basic key figure)
    and another row showing 18 weeks in future (including that week which we have entered).Now after putting the Zfiscweek in columns when I try to restrict row (quantity ) the system is not allowing me to do so. but if I remove the Zfiscweek from columns the design goes wrong. would please give your opinion on this.
    THank you,
    Prasad

    Use structure in rows.
    It should have selction as follows:
    1. Prior 8 weeks
    2. Next 16 weeks
    Use offset settings on value ranges on variable to get those ranges (-8 and +16)..
    Add fisc week in colums.
    Since you don't want to show next 16 weeks in first row, use cell referencing to suppress the display if required.

    Thanks so much for the reply.
    Before I posted my code, I double-checked my syntax and think I found the problem. I using Fragments at the beginning of my page, and at the end, to construct a wrapper table where I can put some fancier graphics, etc. I'm using the fragments and plain old HTML because using another gridpanel on each page is a bit cumbersome, and also I need the flexibility of possibly doing some dynamic things to this table... Because each fragment doesn't have matching tags to complete the page, I think that's screwing up the designer, as you suggested. For instance, here is my fragment at the top of each page :
    <TABLE WIDTH="100%" BORDER="1">
    <TR>
    <TD ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP">
    <TABLE WIDTH="595" BORDER="2" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0" BORDERCOLOR="#184266">
    <TR>
    <TD WIDTH="50%" ALIGN="LEFT" BGCOLOR="#184266"> </TD>
    <TD WIDTH="50%" ALIGN="RIGHT" BGCOLOR="#184266"> </TD>
    </TR>
    <TR>
    <TD COLSPAN="2" ALIGN="CENTER" VALIGN="TOP">
    <!-- WIZARD GRID BEGINS HERE -->
    Any suggestions on a better way to use includes to break out some necessary HTML??
    THANKS very much!
