Monitoring data loads can be considered as a recurring daily activity for any BW Support Organization. In some cases it is also required to have a deep-dive into the DTP Monitor Log, e.g. for observing any “data related issues”. Often this task is assigned to a Functional Application Manager or Business User who might not have access to the BW back-end. It would be convenient to automate the process by sending DTP Monitor Log entries by e-mail to one or several receipients.

In this blog I would like to introduce a comprehensive ABAP Add-on which I developed for facilitating this process. Please refer to my document Implementing an Add-on for Sending DTP Monitor Log to E-mail for detailed implementation instructions.

DTP Monitor Log Entries

The screenshot below shows an example of a DTP Monitor Log.

Figure 1: DTP Monitor Log

As you can see the Expert Routine sent some warning messages to the DTP Monitor Log. The message log can be displayed by double-clicking on the log icon.

Figure 2: DTP Monitor Log messages

For each message you can show more information by clicking on the question mark icon. Next to an optional long text, you can find here the Message Class (i.e. the first part of Message No. - in this example ZILL) and Message Number (i.e. the last three digits of the Message No. - in this example 004).

Figure 3: Example of a detailed message

E-mail Add-on

The E-mail Add-on is an ABAP program which is intended to be included in a Process Chain. The program must run after the DTP for which you want the Monitor Log to be sent via e-mail. The next screenshot shows the selection screen of the program.

Figure 4: Selection screen

The program retrieves the latest DTP request according to the selections made on the selection screen. Subsequently, the monitor messages are filtered based on the Message Class (please see figure 3 for an example) and Message Type (e.g. Error, Warning, etc.) which can be optionally specified on the selection screen. If you don’t specify any Message Class and/or Message Type, all messages will be collected. It is mandatory to enter at least one E-mail Address and an E-mail Subject.

Furthermore, a word about the Abort flag. It is meant to influence how the program must behave in case of an e-mail send failure. I suggest to activate the Abort flag if sending the e-mail is crucial for the Business Users. The program terminates in such a case, the Process Chain becomes red and requires manual intervention.

Note: be aware that as a prerequisite the SAPconnect configuration must be OK. This configuration is not described here. Please refer to t/code SICF and SCOT.

As the last step the program displays a log of what has been executed.

Figure 5: Log at the end of the program

The program log will be stored as a spool request. This log can be viewed retrospectively by the BW Support Organization if required.

Last but not least, you can check out the outbound e-mail messages using SAPconnect Administration (t/code SCOT).

Conclusion

In this blog I introduced the E-mail Add-on. It is an ABAP program meant to automate the process of sending DTP Monitor Log entries by e-mail to one or several receipients. Please refer to my document Implementing an Add-on for Sending DTP Monitor Log to E-mail for more information re. implementing this E-mail Add-on.

hi

My requirement is to do selective deletion of data from dso based on a range of fiscal week for example current week - 53 till current week -1.

So, I tried using delete_facts program but I am unable to see the D option for the DSO. For cube , it is working fine.

Kindly help.

Thanks

Hello Gurus,

I have an issue with the routine level values Below is values in DSO level where 0transtype is ***, PLN and 230. When I have

transtype 230 ( can be any number) I need to delete the *** and PLN. When I do not have 230 I need to delete PLN and

display only ***. The below code works fine for single records but when I load them in bulk it does not work. If *** (2007)

and 230 (2007) for transtype are in the same year both are displayed. In this case only 230 needs to be displayed. I am unable to

figure out the issue within the below code. I request you to let me know your suggestions on this.

HI,

I have getting short dump(ST22) when i run my DTP.

In the short dump it says , ORA-00060 error. i have applied the sap note 84348, but still am facing the issue. i am attaching a part of the dump

I have checked that DTP is running in

Processing mode :- parallel extration and processing

Extraction mode :- Full

Parallel Extration is checked.

And number of parallel batch jobs is 3.

SAPNW 7.3

Database :- oracle 11g

And we are using partition table

After the batch job completion(some failed due to dump and oters finished. ) the request is showing in yellow but when i access the request id to check which datapackage fails it turns red. is it due to the locks ??

Tried to run the DTP in process chain but same issue.

Need your help.

below is part of dump which i found relevant, can post more if anybody require more data to analyse the issue.

Error analysis

    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.

    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB', was not caught

     in

    procedure "WRITE_ICFACT" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.

    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the

    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.

    The reason for the exception is:

    Database error text: "ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource"

how to create partitioning over the cube by regions logically ?

Hello,

Can anybody help please:

Why is my BEx Report showing ERROR after each figure in each cell please

Dear Guru's,

I have requirement needs to be done which is we have got cube( which hold information about bar's)

1 hold's twelve years worth of data (253,296,530 million records)

2 basically it has got customer ship to number, number of taps according in each outlet(customer ship to) according brand of beer.

3 i have to create a new value field which is nothing but value field populated by posting a value of £X depending on brand of beer ( example if it is carling new value field should be multiplied by £3 for number of tap's available) and this should be back posted to twelve years worth of data .

4 we have about ten different beer brand so can this be done by creating one value field or ten different value fields?

5 is this achievable using Remodelling concept ?

6 is it better if it done at reporting level?

your help on this will be much appreciated......

Kind Regards,

Shanmugam.

Hi Experts ,

i want to create badi for my IC SPO which has 3 partitions.

when i run t-code RSLPO_MASS_ACT, it should fulfill the partitions as below:

at first run ; partition1 should have 2013, partition2 : 2014 and Partition3:2015 data.

at second run; partition1 should have 2016  ,

at third run ,Partition2 should have 2017 data.

i guess on the GET_T_PART_CRIT method correnponding code has to be written.

can anyone help me on that code ?

thanks in advance.

Hi Guys,

when i am using RRMX tcode in SAP bw i am getting the below error.

run time error "53".

file not found- wdba.dll

Good Morning,

we had some troubles with the data source 2LIS_11_VAITM. Now it is fixed. But we discoverd that records for at least two weeks in december are missing.

We run the datasource on a daily delta. It is possible to reload the whole december with a full update to get the missing records?

Can you please guide me?

Thank you very much!

Hi All,

Need to mask the characteristic values with "Confidential" for a column field to a set of users without missing the row in Bex report during runtime

Confidential users                          

CNO       CTRY Name       Email

101        US                     abc@mail.com

102        UK                     def@mail.com

103        US                     ghi@mail.com

Non- Confidential users

CNO       CTRY Name       Email                 

101        US                      Confidential

102        UK                      Confidential

103        US                      Confidential

These confidential users are maintained in a field (ZCONFUSR)  based on which the email ID need to masked but the records/row should be seen for non-confidential reports.

The regular Authorization Based on Characteristic Value  will actually hide the complete records but in my case I want to mask only the characteristic values in a column with confidential.

How to achieve the above scenario ?

Ver: SAP BW 7.3

Thanks,

Mahesh

HI Experts,

My client is asking for database size in BW table for few reports, their idea is to calculate how much is the DB size for cubes for each report on monthly basis to find the DB growth for few critical reports. please suggest me how to calculate the DB size of CUBE for month. is there any formulas to calculate DB size for month based on Record count?.

HI everyone,

on 15.01.2016 i  loaded data from Datasource 0FI_AR_4 in source system to Infocube 0FIAR_C03 in BW with Full-update Info Package.

today i need to load new data into the Cube. so i am creating 2 Infopakages; init infopackage with out data transfer and delta infopackge.

My question is that: do i need to make full load onces again before initial load without data transfer and delta load?

Because if i make the initial load and then delta load, the system will load only the new data from today

Thanks
