Hi All, I have a requirement install business content datasources related to Overhead Projects - CO-OM-PRO and build a standard data model for the data sources below.

 

0CO_OM_WBS_1

0CO_OM_WBS_2

0CO_OM_WBS_3

0CO_OM_WBS_6

0CO_OM_WBS_7

0CO_OM_WBS_8

 

I have installed the datasources and replicated on the BW side. Please help me to find the standard DSO’s and Infocubes for these data sources.

Data sources 0CO_OM_WBS_1,0CO_OM_WBS_2 and 0CO_OM_WBS_3 are feeding to the infocube directly and 0CO_OM_WBS_6,0CO_OM_WBS_7 and 0CO_OM_WBS_8 are feeding to the 0WBS_O06,0WBS_O07 and 0WBS_O08 as per BI content.

If there any infocube on top of these DSO’s- 0WBS_O06, 0WBS_O07 and 0WBS_O08 for reporting? Thanks for your help advance.

Can we fill serial number for each record in direct update DSO through routine in APD?

Hi All,

 

We were loading data to direct update DSO through APD. Recently we are facing error as "Duplication record issue". We have tried aggregation and all similar ways, it didn't work.

Also we don't have unique data for any of the field. So, we planned to have key field as counter in Direct update DSO and this field can be filled by numbers (similar to serial numbers) in order to get unique record.

 

Could any of you can share a piece of code which will work in APD Routine.

 

Thanks,

Hi Experts,

 

There is data mismatch between material stock in the transaction MB5B in ECC with that of in BW.

 

To  match the data do I need to perform setup table filling followed by “Repair Full” for 2LIS_03_UM and 2LIS_03_BF datasource or just 2LIS_03_BF is fine or intitilaization needs to be done again 2LIS_03_UX. Kindly clarify.

Exchange rate Decimals

Hi Frenz,

 

       We got a requirement from business to match our BW Exchanges rate decimals with ECC.

 

The InfoObject that we currently use is the standard Object 0IEXRATE_ACC and it locked into multiple data targets with huge volumes of records in the data target.

 

Also, the business is expecting the changes to reflect only for Q3 and Q4 (Future only); they dont care about the Past records.

 

Do we have any successful option to change InfoObject decimals by avoiding the huge rebuild in BW?

 

We are in tight phase to close this requirement before this month end. Appreciate any help on this.

 

Can anyone please guide on this ?

 

Thanks

Increasing Keyfigure length in Production System

$

Hi Experts,

 

I want to increase the length of a keyfigure (standard infoobject) from 3 to 5. The keyfigure is used in multiple targets of production system.

 

I am planning to change the domain associated with the keyfigure with a custom domain and change the entries in RSDKYF table.

 

But i am worried about the data which is  already loaded in data targets.I just want to keep the old data as such and load future data with required decimal places.

 

I am not in a position to think about reloading.

 

Please suggest the consequences of increasing the keyfigure length.Will it work perfectly if i transport the custom domain and the keyfigure to the production system.

 

Thanks,

Hi Experts,

 

When I am trying to fill the setup table for the data source 2LIS_03_BF based on posting date (OLI1BW). It is not fetching all the records. Example jan 1st 2015 to jan 31st 2015. I see it has fetched only from 1st to 9th .There is no records in the queue or RSA7 and the setup table was deleted prior to filling. Also when I deleted and ran setup table filling for 10th to 15th jan it fetched data for those range. Not sure why it is not fetching all the records for the posting date at once (for a bigger range). Am I missing something. There is no error thrown by the system.

BW RSECADMIN: Mass creation analysis authorizations based on hierarchy nodes

$

Hello,

 

Is it possible to perform a mass creation of analysis authorizations containing an infoObject with an hierarchy node as  value in RSECADMIN in BW version 7.1 or higher.

 

I have to create a large number of analysis authorizations, each containing an authorization relevant infoObject for profit ctr as a dimension. This Profit ctr dimension should contain an hierarchy authorization. During the definition steps of this hierarchy authorization a screen in which the hierarchy node needs to be selected pops up. In this screen the profit ctr hierarchy node needs to be selected from the hierarchy and dragged and dropped in the right part of the screen: 'Selected Hierarchy Nodes'.

 

If i have to do this manually for each analysis authorization it takes a lot of time. So my question is, is it possible to do a mass creation and how?

 

Thanks in advance.

Upgrade to SAP NetWeaver BW 7.3x

 

Upgrade to SAP BW 7.40

 

 

ASU Toolbox (incl. BW Specific Content) and BW Upgrade pre/post Task List
With the ASU (application specific upgrade) toolbox, customers get one single truth for all pre/post upgrade steps regarding the technical upgrade to SAP BW 7.0x  and all following releases.
More detailed information about the ASU toolbox can be found in note 1000009. This tool has been available since 2008 (see the TechEd Presentation and the new Upgrade to SAP BW 7.30 Presentation) has been enhanced and now allows application specific and technical resources to work together for a successful upgrade to SAP BW 7.30
With SAP NetWeaver 7.30 JAVA, the Functional Unit Configuration UI (former CTC BI-JAVA Template) is available.
New:
Together with the BW Housekeeping Task List,there are also additional Task Lists available to simplify preparation of the application-specific part.
Implement the following SAP Note to enable usage of task list SAP_BW_BEFORE_UPGRADE via transaction STC01
(contains manual report ZNOTE_1734333_PRE_70x/ZNOTE_1734333_PRE_70x, and NO automated steps applied with SNOTE)
With the release of SAP BW 7.30 new and innovative capabilities have been added to SAP's EDW premium solution. SAP BW 7.30 as the backbone for a successful usage of SAP BusinessObjects Platform and SAP Business Warehouse Accelerator - BWA is the heart of the SAP Business Intelligence Architecture. The updated presentation SAP NetWeaver 7.0x - Upgrade to SAP NetWeaver 7.30 ABAP BW (full version with complete technical details) provided you with must-know delta information to quickly and effective upgrade to SAP BW 7.30 including existing information from the resources of this page and the updates for SAP NetWeaver 7.30 EhP1 (7.31).

 

See also the changes to the existing BEx Versions 3.5 and 7.x after Upgrade to BW 7.30 or 7.31
Be sure to read these notes prior to the technical upgrade in order to prevent any unwanted incompatibilities or unforeseen changes.

BW ABAP and BI-JAVA Installation

The Software Provisioning Manager 1.0 (SWPM) can be used to install all SAP NetWeaver 7.30 based instances onwards. See the details of the Software Logistics Toolset 1.0 here.

 

See SAP NetWeaver BW Installation/Configuration (also on HANA). This document also includes the complete SAP BW basis customizing settings, together with an example configuration of the system parameter. The guidance raises no claim to completeness.
New: It is now possible to install the ABAP CI as well on the HANA Appliance!

     SAP HANA Blog - SAP BW on HANA on one server

     BW_HANA_MCOD_s.JPG

See all SAP First Guidance Documents here -SAP BW on SAP HANA First Guidance Collection

 

With the release of SAP NetWeaver 7.30 all previous J2EE stacks are now synchronized in one platform. BI JAVA 7.30 is still available with the usage type BI-JAVA to connect to an existing SAP BW 7.30 stack for the classical usage of BEx Web or the native dashboards (former Xcelsius). The presentation SAP NetWeaver 7.30 – BI JAVA Implementation shows the new SAP NetWeaver 7.30 installation and configuration options with the functional unit configuration UI (former CTC BI-Java Template) All informations are also valid vor SAP NetWeaver 7.30 EhP1 (7.31).
Technical configuration is an elementary part of setting up and operating SAP system landscapes. For example, you have to perform initial technical configuration to bring a newly installed system into operation. But also during the lifecycle of an SAP system, technical parameters have to be set and adapted.

 

SAP NetWeaver 7.0 - Deinstalling Java Add-In (also valid for SAP NetWeaver 7.30 JAVA Add-In)
The separation of the dualstack (ABAP and JAVA in one instance) into two separate stacks is a SAP recommendation. An option available since SAP NetWeaver BW 7.0 is the de-installation of the Java Add-In with SAPInst. This presentation provides details and guidance about the process to prepare for upgrade to SAP NetWeaver BW 7.30, concentrating on the ABAP stack.

 

As a successor for most scenarios, we offer the combined export of the Java system, de-installation of the Java Add-In and installation of a new Java system using the dual-stack split tool available as part of the SL toolset 1.0 (SP05). For more information, see "Dual-Stack Split".

 

If you are running SAP NetWeaver 7.30 JAVA Add-In you can use the software provisioning manager 1.0 (SWPM) as part of the SL toolset for the de-installation process, as this always contains the latest software components (Note 1680045). Note that the dual split process is not supported for SAP NetWeaver 7.30 systems (Note 1655335)

 

With SAP NetWeaver 7.3x JAVA the Functional Unit Configuration UI (former CTC BI-JAVA Template) is available

 

In Advance check the WebAS/SSO Settings after the Upgrade to NetWeaver 7.3x. The settings are almost identical to NetWeaver BW 7.0x

Migration to SAP BW on SAP HANA

DMO is an option of SUM (Software Update Manager) for a combined update and migration: update an existing SAP system to a higher Software Release and migrate to SAP HANA database including the unicode conversion of the source database. The procedure is only available for systems based on AS ABAP, hence the executable SAPup is used in background. DMO migrates from an existing relational database type (“anyDB”) to SAP HANA. Software Update Manager (SUM) is the tool for system maintenance: Release upgrades, EHP implementation, applying SP stacks.

SAP NetWeaver BW Near Line Storage solution (NLS) based on Sybase IQ

Improve decision-making capabilities by bringing unprecedented performance to SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse with SAP HANA for current data and SAP Sybase IQ for historical data— achieving the perfect balance of cost and performance. The adapter for Sybase IQ as a near-line solution is delivered with the BW system. Integration of Sybase IQ makes it possible for you to separate data that you access frequently from data that you access rarely, thus making fewer demands on the resources in the BW system. The near-line data is stored in compressed form. You can thus reduce the costs incurred by data that is accessed less frequently.

 

To reduce downtime for your production landscape, one of the recommended migration paths of SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (SAP NetWeaver BW) to SAP NetWeaver BW on SAP HANA comprises a system copy of your SAP NetWeaver BW system. The system copy procedure of SAP NetWeaver BW systems and landscapes is complex for a number of reasons however. A large number of configuration settings are involved for example (such as connections and delta queue handling for data loading), as well as system copy scenarios of SAP NetWeaver BW (each with different landscape aspects) that have to be handled as part of every system copy, regardless of whether the system copy is part of the migration to SAP HANA or you want to perform regular system copies of your SAP NetWeaver BW landscape.

 

To achieve this, SAP NetWeaver Landscape Virtualization Management offers preconfigured "task lists" used by the ABAP task manager for lifecycle management automation.
You can also enable SAP BW powered by SAP HANA to “go productive” with parallel operation of your existing production system, both connected to the same back-end systems. This is achieved with a special and unique automated solution for delta queue cloning and synchronization on production systems.
SAP Note 886102 (SMP login required) thus becomes obsolete. Using the post-copy automation for SAP BW (BW PCA) in the migration process of SAP BW to SAP BW on SAP HANA, this process can be shortened by weeks and becomes easier, faster and more reliable.

 

The presentation Teched 2012 - Session EIM300  illustrates the migration to SAP BW on SAP HANA from an end-to-end perspective.
Please Note that since Q1/2014 the Presentation - Migration to BW on HANA - First Guidance concludes all of these manual efforts now.

 

 

 

eim301_pic5.JPG

SAP BW System Copy

 

Since Release 7.30 SP05, it is now possible to perform a heterogenous system copy (incuding unicode migration) to migrate existing systems based on SAP  BW 7.30 SP05 and higher to SAP BW on SAP HANA (HDB) based systems.
With this major step forward, a new procedure called "Post Copy Automation (BW PCA)" now supports customers with what can often be complex post-steps before and after the homogenous/heterogenous BW system copy. This presentation is the delta information to the existing document "SAP NetWeaver 7.0 - BW Systemcopy ABAP" shown above. The technical Improvements with the leaner data model provides advantages with BW on HANA too.
To ease this generic step of BW system copy, a new procedure called "BW Post Copy automation (BW PCA)" is available, which supports customer now in the complex pre and post steps during the homogeneous/heterogeneousBW system copy (information from the SAP ALM group) procedure.
Please note that these procedure can be used independently from your BW and Database Version starting fromNetWeaver 7.0x

 

 

 

We distinguish between two use cases explained in the FAQ for BW-PCA:
- initial copy based on an existing original BW system and connected BW source systems
  Task Lists - SAP_BW_COPY_INITIAL_PREPARE (BW systems only)
   and
SAP_BW_BASIS_COPY_INITIAL_CONFIG
- refresh of an existing system based on an existing BW system and connected BW source systems
  Task List - SAP_BW_BASIS_COPY_REFRESH_CONFIG

 

Updating to the minimum level of the mentioned Support Stacks is recommended to minimize the manual effort.

For both cases the BW-PCA Tasklists support the customer together with the software provisioning manager 1.0 (SWPM) in these software lifecycle management tasks. BW-PCA is embedded in the SAP NetWeaver Landscape Virtualization Management

BW Housekeeping Tasks

 

In this session, you will learn about various housekeeping activities that should be part of the operational concept of your Enterprise Data Warehouse. These housekeeping activities will support you in removing unwanted and unneeded data as well as unused metadata. Scheduling these activities regularly in the system will ensure optimum utilization of system resources while at the same time increasing the overall system performance.

 

New: SAP First Guidance - SAP BW Housekeeping and BW-PCA

 

(contains manual steps ZNOTE_1829728_PRE_70x/ZNOTE_1829728_PRE_73x, and automated steps applied with SNOTE)
The newly released Housekeeping Task List (Pre/Post Steps) allows you to automate mandatory tasks prior to upgrade/migration with DMO to ensure the quality of the migration process and the health of your BW System.
