BCS and Multiprovider scenario

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

Can someone help me and explain how does this scenario work?

I have created a multiprovider based on the virtual and the reporting cubes.

The virtual reads the data from the total records (transactional) cube, and the reporting cube contains physical data fetched from this cube with BAdi.

This is understandable. but...

<b>How does the reporting cube show the consolidation data?</b>

The <u>FM</u> of the virtual cube <u>does not</u> work on this cube. characteristics like consolidation group <u>are not</u> part of the total records cube.

What is this <u>BAdi</u> that fetches data for the reporting cube?

Can you please provide me some links that would help me understand it?

Thank You,

Hana.

Hi Hana,

I also got the same scenario, I got a Multiprovider on one reporting cube and one virtual cube. Please keep me posted if you get the information on this.

Your help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Try BADI Definition RSU5_SAPI_BADI

with implementation RSSEM_BCS_VC_LOGIC

I believe this is generated when you use the Delta Cube scenario for BCS

The reporting cube must be populated in a specific manner as described in SAP white paper for Data Mart with BCS. The ensures that the reporting cube is populated with the virtual cube reporting logic applied. The white paper is available at SAP Service Marketplace.

This paper is a technical one. It says what to do, without the knowledge inside it.

I have defined the Data Mart exactlly as it says, and yet it seems does not work propaly.

This is why I've asked for the name of the BAdi or any other help understanding the logic inside.

Thank you, Hana.
