When Activate master data??

Hi.
I have a question about activating master data.
What does exactly the system do when I active the master data?
Why is it actived sometimes and inactive other times?
Thanks.

Hi,
Consider the following example :
key      objvers          Changed          attribute
1000        A                                       ABC
Now suppose the attribute value is changed from ABC to DEF.
Then the entries will be as follows :
key      objvers          Changed          attribute
1000          A                 D                  ABC
1000          M                 I                   DEF
So when you activate the master data then finally it becomes
1000           A                                    DEF.
IF you dont activate it will still show the attribute value as ABC in the reports.

Error when generating master data routines

Hello all,
I´m trying to activate 0BPARTNER but an error appears: Error when generating master data routines, and no more information is provided.
I´m working with BW 7.0.
Has anybody had this problem?
How could I solve it?
Thanks in advance.
Carmen

Hi Carmen,
I'm working with SAP BW 700 and I had also this error during a characteristic activation in my QA system. This happened when I tried to transport the activated characteristic from my DEV system.
I found also message TK425 when I was trying activation through RSDG_IOBJ_ACTIVATE program.
I solved this error message with OSS note 01458319 700SP24: "Transport fails during the impact analysis of DTP".-
I hope this helps.
Best Regards.

Error when generating master data routines when activating infoobject

Hello Gurus,
I had an issue with one of my info object.
I Created the one Custom InfoObject with Just 5 Char without any masterdata and used that in many cubes. we promoted the objects and cube to test and production systems. just couple of days back we can see the InfoObject went to inactive status even though the version is active(not sure how it happend). This is only happens in our test system and production is working fine. when i try to activate the InfoObject again the test system it gives me an error
Characteristic XXXXX: Error when generating master data routines. Tried to correct in RSD5 etc. Checked in RSRV everything is fine. Tried to re-promote the object from Development system. The transport also failed with the same error even though it is in unconditional mode.
Can you please suggest me what are the options.
i cannot delete the object as it is used in many cubes which is having data.
Appreciate your quick response.
Thanks,
Bhaskara Rao.

If your Prod is working fine, it should work in test too.
Did it ever worked in test after transport?
Is it possible some one tried to change something in test? If yes, you will get error when you will try to re-transport it as new transport can't find the previous structure.
You may try to activate the IO using FM RSDG_IOBJ_ACTIVATE

0COSTCENTER Error when generating master data routines

Hi,
Characteristic 0COSTCENTER properties are changed. Check box - Characteristic is document attrib. has been checked in. Then the same is saved and activated. Again when trying to remove the check box and activating the 0COSTCENTER characteristic, the system says 0COSTCENTER Error when generating master data routines.
The Object Status of the Characteristic is showing in "Inactive, not executable".
Erorr message is:
Error in activating the InfoObjects
Message no. R7286
Please let me know how to activate 0COSTCENTER.
Regards,
Ravi

This has been solved.
In SE14, I have also deleted the data.
Go to Tcode SE16, IO Class is BW* and then select the relevant attribute then execute, select all the line items.
Go to Table Entry ==> Delete.
Go to Tcode RSODADMIN and Tab => Go to Generate Document Properties Tab ==> Select the Characteristic ==> Click Generate Document Properties.
I am able to activate the Infoobject 0COSTCENTER again.
Hopefully, this would be helpful for others also.

Hi Siggi,
I saw your responding about 2LIS_01_S001. I have few questions about your procedure when I followed your suggestion. I am wondering if i can have your personal email address and send my question to you. It will appreciate if you can help.
Here is your posting:
Hi,
We have a SD_C01 Cube (Customer)and 2LIS_01_S001 is an Extractor for the Cube. Can any one advice me what are the steps for 2LIS_01_S001 extraction?
Please advice
Hi,
in your source system, you need to activate the datasource. Replicate it to BW and that's it, normally. Check out table S001 with transaction SE16 to see if there is already data posted to this table. If not, you need to run transaction OMO1 to check if the statistics update for SD is already active and try OLI7 to run a initial setup for infostructure S001.

Siggi

'Error occurred when deleting master data (RSDMD118)'

Helo Gurus,
When I tried to delete master data prior to the reload, its giving an error message 'Error occurred when deleting master data'. RSDMD 118.
We are currently working in BW 3.1. We checked for SAP notes for the same. But not Able to find any. So please help me to sort it out the problem as early as possible.

Hi Mathew,
Are you sure that those master data are not used in any infoproviders? As far as I know you cannot delete master data if that is used in infocubes or DSOs.
You can also try transaction SLG1 with:
Object = RSDMD
Subobject = MD_DEL
and click on "Execute", this might give you the reason why data cannot be deleted.

Csaba

Difference between a Change-run and Activate master data

Hi experts,
Could you tell me what is the difference between making a change-run on a masterdata (rsa1 --> Tools --> Apply Hierarchy/Attribute Change...), and making a right-click on this masterdata and click on "Activate master data" ?
The result seems to be the same, all rows in version M (Revised) are changed in version A (Active)...
Thanks for your help.
Tempka.

Hi
Change run will update the master data changes in Aggregates and update the object master data as well.
Activate master data will only activate the new records and it will not update the aggregates.
check out the below thread
Attribute Change Run VS Master data activation

Transaction to activate master data

hi,
is there any direct transaction code, which can be used to activate master data?
like we can maintain master data using RSDMD, anything to activate the data?
going into RSA1 and finding for the infoobj and activating it is taking a lot of time
it is BW 3.5 that i am working on

Pradhiba

hi..
You can activate them using an ABAP program. Create an ABAP program and use the funtion module RSDDS_AGGREGATES_MAINTAIN inside to activate the master data. You can create a job (in sm36) to run the program using the "after job" option. In the "after job" section give the job name existing in the Infopackage groups.
or else..
The attribute and hierarchy change run activates you master data and reflects changes to navigational attributes and/or hierarchies in the aggregates of the cubes!
hope this helps..

When to activate master data

Hi experts,
I just loaded master data in Prod and want to know when to activate it? Is it before transaction data loaded or after transaction data loaded?

Hi Latha,
Before transaction data is loaded.
If you have master data table being looked up at in the routine, then inactive master data would not be considered and you may get errors while loading the data.
Hope it helps,

How to only update existing records when loading master data ?

Hello experts, I need your lights one more time.
Here is my need :
I have created an infoobject (IO) which is a very simple version of 0material, let's call it Znewmat --> Znewmat has material type and trademark as attributes, those two fields are available in 2 different datasources :
- 0MATERIAL_ATTR for material type (field MTART)
- 0MAT_SALES_ATTR for trademark (field MVGR2)
When loading my new IO from 0MATERIAL_ATTR I use a filter (at DTP level) to get only a few material types (I get something like 1000 records),
here is my issue : when I load from 0MAT_SALES_ATTR the field "material type" is not available to keep the same filter as for 0MATERIAL_ATTR and existing records are updated with the trademark, but I also get 5000 records I don't need, and my master data is "polluated" with useless lines.
*and my question : is there a way while performing the second loading to ONLY UPDATE EXISTING RECORDS AND NOT ADD ANY
NEW RECORDS ? (i didn't find anything in main options of my DTP)*
(I'd like to avoid the solution to update the 0MAT_SALES_ATTR datasource to add the missing field)
Thanks in advance for any help, points will be distributed.
Guillaume P.
Still no idea ?

in the start routine of transformation from 0MAT_SALES_ATTR to znewmat do the following:
select materials from /BIC/PZNEWMAT into i_mat
for all entries in source_package where material eq source_package-material.
loop at source_package.
p_ind = sy-tabix.
read table i_mat with key material = source_package-material.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
delete i_mat index p_ind.
endif.
this way you'll only update records that have previously been loaded by 0MATERIAL_ATTR DS
loading sequence:
first load ZNEWMAT from 0MATERIAL_ATTR. then activate ZNEWMAT. then load 0MAT_SALES_ATTR to ZNEWMAT.

Issue when maintain master data in BW 740

Hi guy ,
When I want to maintain master data by right clicking info object in DEV system, It pop an IE application ,

It want me to login QAS system.I check my host configuration parameters ,i think it's no problem.

Hi
Please check this
From BW 7.40 SP5 Master data maintenance is moved from SAP GUI to WEBDynpro application. When I was trying to do the same it gives below error. I think It requires some settings to configure web services in BD7. Please check and activate the same. Please find the relevant links and SAP Notes which might help you.

How to Assign a Constant Value to a Dim. Member when pulling Master Data?

BPC Gurus:
I am trying load Vendor and Customer Master data into BPC dimension. My Dimesnion has memebrs: ID, EVDESCRIPTION, PARENTH1, TYPE. I have successfully pulled the ID and the description from 0CUSTOMER and 0VENDOR. However, I
need to have a ttext value for 'PARENTH1' and 'TYPE'. For Customers, I want to add a FIXED value "'CUSTOMER' for every
Customer ID pulled in and also for "TYPE", I want a value of "CUSTOMER". When I maintainthe Dimension, I want to see
th followingvalues:
ID                          EVDESCRIPTION                                   PARENTH1                         TYPE
0000000001         WALMART                                            CUSTOMER                        CUSTOMER
0000000002          TARGET                                               CUSTOMER                        CUSTOMER
and so ON
Since we have Vendor Numbers in the same Diemsnion, when I pull Vendors, I need to have similar values as:
ID                          EVDESCRIPTION                                   PARENTH1                         TYPE

0000005051         BASF                                                    VENDOR                            VEDOR
and so ON
How can assign a Fixed value to the member Propert? Can I achieve it in Conversion file....?
( My atempts failed...).
Any suggestion recommendation would be gretaly appreciated.
Munna.

Hi,
For adding fixed values to the properties, you can use the transformation file. In the mapping section, you can specify a constant value. This value will be written to properties of all the members while importing master data. However, for parenth, its a bit different. First thing is that, you need to have a member called CUSTOMER, then only you can have CUSTOMER in the parenth column. Even if you add it and use the mapping section for this purpose, then it will write CUSTOMER to parenth for all the members (even to CUSTOMER member). And this will be wrong. So, you will need to write it manually.
Hope you got the idea.
