hi,

i have read help links and so many blogs in sdn before doing lo extraction

right now i need to do init and delta for purchasing (02)

i want to follow these steps

correst me if i am wrong

step1:

i will fill set up tables for init extraction during that i will stop users for posting documents

step2

after fillling setup tables, in lbwe transaction i will select delta mode as 'queued delta' and run a v3 job for every hour

step3

documents which are new or modified or deleted are collected in lbwq transaction for one hour and transferred to rsa7 as 1 luw

step 4

when i do delta this luw will be extracted to bw

correct me if i am wrong?

if this is correct

if i modify my data source when my deltas are running

what should i do in bw and r/3 side?

Hi Venkat,

Yes you are correct.To add to you these are the steps given in SAP IMG

<b>LO Cockpit Step By Step</b>

<b>LO EXTRACTION</b>

- Go to Transaction LBWE (LO Customizing Cockpit)

1). Select Logistics Application

SD Sales BW

Extract Structures

2). Select the desired Extract Structure and deactivate it first.

3). Give the Transport Request number and continue

4). Click on `Maintenance' to maintain such Extract Structure

Select the fields of your choice and continue

Maintain DataSource if needed

5). Activate the extract structure

6). Give the Transport Request number and continue

- Next step is to Delete the setup tables

7). Go to T-Code SBIW

8). Select Business Information Warehouse

i. Setting for Application-Specific Datasources

ii. Logistics

iii. Managing Extract Structures

iv. Initialization

v. Delete the content of Setup tables (T-Code LBWG)

vi. Select the application (01 – Sales & Distribution) and Execute

- Now, Fill the Setup tables

9). Select Business Information Warehouse

i. Setting for Application-Specific Datasources

ii. Logistics

iii. Managing Extract Structures

iv. Initialization

v. Filling the Setup tables

vi. Application-Specific Setup of statistical data

vii. SD Sales Orders – Perform Setup (T-Code OLI7BW)

Specify a Run Name and time and Date (put future date)

Execute

- Check the data in Setup tables at RSA3

- Replicate the DataSource

Use of setup tables:

You should fill the setup table in the R/3 system and extract the data to BW - the setup tables is in SBIW - after that you can do delta extractions by initialize the extractor.

Full loads are always taken from the setup tables

Hope this helps

thanks for answering then what about the luws in lbwq and rsa7 for deltas which are already there should i delete them?

Hi Venkat,

Those are the requests which are loaded before enhancement.They will not carry any data for enhanced fields.So better delete them and then do it again.

Hi Venkat,

If you change the datasource extraction structure while the data is already in the delta queue you may have problems in V3 jobs. It's not a recommended practice. Refer to SAP note 328181 for the steps to make changes in LO extraction structure while data having data in delta queue.

i am referrimg to loading sequence at r/3 level and also at bw side

wheather i need to delete all luws in lbwq and rsa7 transaction

and at bw side whether i need to delete the init and re do it again and then run deltas

can u be more precise with ur answer so that i can understand better

regards,

vishal

Hi Venkat,

If you want all the historical data to be populated for the enhanced fields then you have to do the entire process again.That means you have to fill the setup tables and you have to run the init again.The entire process has to be repeated.

Hope this helps now

thanks for answering

can u tell me for this

if i modify my data source when my deltas are running

what should i do in bw and r/3 side?

Hi,

To make your changes done to datasource to reflect in BW you have to replicate your datasource.This is the care taken when the DS os changed.

Hi Venkat,

To extract data from LO Cockpit follow this steps

1. Log on to R/3

2. execute Transaction LBWE (to get in to LO Cockpit)

3. After u are in LO Cockpit. Expand the desired extract

structures(eg:SD,MM etc..)

4. Click on Maintainence to Maintain Extract Structures

5. Add and remove fields like (MCVBAK, MCVBAP)

6. Generate Data Source by clicking on the data source and then

Select/Hide/Invert fields.

7. Activate Extract Structure by clicking on inactive.( If its already

active you have to deactivate it by clicking on active before step 4)

8. Then execute transaction LBWG to delete the content of setup

tables(Select the application 01 for sales etc)

9. Now execute transaction OLI*BW to fill the set up tables ( where *=7

for sales and *=9 for billing etc)

10. check the data in setup table RSA3

11. Go to BW and Replicate the Data Source

12. Maintain the transfer rules, comm struct, schedule infopacks etc...

13. For delta go in r/3 then LBWE then you application(eg: Sales) and

click on delta and then select DIRECT, QUEUED, or NON SERIALISED V3

And before everything.. after you log on to R/3 transfer the Master

data for your application for Eg: for SD go to SD-IO and transfer it by

using transactions RSA5, RSA6 and RSA3 in that order.

You should fill the setup table in R/3 system & extract the data

to BW .... the setup tables is in SBIW....after that you can do

delta extraction by initialize the extractor.....Full loads are

always taken from the Setup table.

Setup table concept applize only to Lo-Extracion.

Steps for Lo-Extraction:

LO-EXTRACTION

• T-Code: LBWE

• First we need to check which data source suits the client's

requirements in LBWE.

• Check whether it is in Active version/Modified version. If it is

in M version go to RSA5 and select our data source and press on

Transfer. Then go to RSA6 and see whether the datsource is been

transferred.

• If the datasource is already in active version then we need to

check whether the datsource is already extracting data in to BW.

• If the datasource is extracting the data then we need to check the

data existence in Setup tables (use SE11 to check the setup tables

data. For every extract structure one and only one setup table is

generated whose technical name is Extract structure name+ setup, for

eg. If extract structure name is MC11VAOHDR then set up tables name

is MC11VAOHDRSETUP) and Extraction Queue (LBWQ) and Update tables

(SM13) and Delta Queue (RSA7). If data exists in any of these T-

codes we need to decide whether we need the data in BW or not. If we

need the extract it as we do in LO-Extraction below. I f we don't

need delete the data.

The dataflow from R/3 into BW:

• We nee to generate the extract structure by selecting the fields

from the communication structure in LBWE.

• Generate the datasource and select the selection fields,

cancellation fields, hide fields that we want.

• Replicate it into BW. Then we need to attach Info source(Transfer

rules/communication structure) to the datasource. We got 3 methods

to attach the infosource..

1) Business content:: Business content automatically proposes the

transfer rules and communication structure, we don't have to do

anything manually.

2) Application proposal: Here too proposal is done but some objects

will be missing which we need to assign in the transfer rules.

3) Others: here we need to create the transfer structure, rules,

comm. Strct from the scratch.

• Modeling like infocube, Infosurce attachment,….

• Then activate the extract structure.

• We need to fill the setup tables for the first time loading. In

filling the setup tables we can select between Full load and delta

initialization loads.

Filling Set up table:

T Code : SBIW

Settings for Application-Specific DataSources (PI)->Logistics--

>Managing Extract Structures>Initialization>Filling in the Setup

Table -->Application-Specific Setup of Statistical Data --> in that

Youcan perform the Setup (Example : SD-Sales Orders - Perform Setup)

and execute .. or else direct T Code : OLIBW ( means based on your

application like sales order/billing/ purchase etc)• For setup

tables T-Code is OLI*BW where * equals to application number like 02

fro purchasing,08 for shipment…..

• First we need to decide whether we want delta loads to be

performed in the future. If we want to do delta loads, then we need

to go for Delta Initialization process or else do full load.

• When we perform setup tables extraction, since setup tables are

cluster tables, we can't see the data in the setup tables. So we go

for Extractor checker (RSA3) just to see the setup tables data

(full/delta initialization).

• Then create infopackage and select Full or Delta initialization in

Update tab and schedule it.

• Delete the setup tables data by using LBWG.

• Now we need to do delta loads.

• Delta load data flow differs with various delta update methods. We

got 3 delta update methods as u know.

• If we select "Queued Delta"update method then the data moves to

Extraction queue(LBWQ). Then run Collective update to move the data

from LBWQ into Delta Queue (RSA7). Then schedule the data using the

infopackage by selecting Delta Load in the update tab.

• If we select "Direct delta" then the delta data moves into RSA7

directly.

• If we select "Unserialized V3" method then the data goes

into "Update tables(SM13)", then run Collective update to move the

data from SM13 into RSA7. Schedule the data using infopackage.

• If we click on Maintenance, we can generate the extract structure.

• If we click on 2LIS_02_CGR button, then we we can generate data

source

• Inactive under Update column: we can make a extract structure as

active or inactive.

• If we click on Job control button the we can maintain the

collective update parameters like, start time, and is it hourly once

or dialy once ……

• If we click on Queued delta button under Update mode then we can

select among 3 delta update methods.

    • Only Full/Delta initialization data loads only moves into setup

tables. Delta load data doesn't move into setup tables.

**RSA3 contains only setup table's data

    • Only Delta update data moves into RSA7/LBWQ/SM13 no full/delta

initialization loads data.
