Analyzing BW ObjectsReport to Report Interfaces (RRIs)

RRI Name DESCRIPTION

Status: Analysis For the selected BW object, you can view the number of erroneous requests orrecords. Erroneous requests or records are records or requests that cannot beaggregated or activated

Manage Starts InfoProvider Administration for the selected BW object. You can view thedetails of requests on which the BW application is built. Can view details, such asthe request ID, request status, number of records transferred, number of recordsadded, and source system.

Display Opens the Display page for the selected BW application. You can editthe on which the BW application is built as well as the structure.

Change Opens the Edit page for the selected BW application. You can viewthe on which BW application is built as well as the structure. For example, can view the dimensions, key figures and attributes for.

Object Overview Opens the Display Characteristic page for the selected BW Object. For example,you can view the general properties, master data properties, and hierarchyproperties for the BW object.

Data Flow Opens the Display Data Flow page of the InfoProvider on which the selected BWapplication is built. You can view the data flow diagram on this page.

Aggregate Maintenance Opens the Maintenance for Aggregate page for the selected InfoCube. You canbuild new aggregates and maintain existing aggregates defined on the InfoCube.

Process Chain Log Displays the Process Chain Display Log for the selected process chain intransaction RSPC.


1.End User XYZ getting very high runtimes for a query named SUPPLYDEMAND.

He reports this to the administrator.

2. Administrator takes a look at the ADMIN COCKPIT and tries to see where the problem lies.

3. He goes to the Query Runtime Statistics and then to BW Application Object Statistics.

4. He notices the execution time (OLAP and Data Manager time).

Demo Scenario1 : Manage InfoCube

3. With just a click, he goes to the InfoCube on which the Query is based with the option ofManage InfoCube in the context menu of query SUPPLYDEMAND.You reach the InfoProvider Administration page of the InfoCube.

4. The administrator explores the ROLLUP Tab. As The company does not have the BW Accelerator ,the administrator decides to try the option of Creating Aggregates to decrease query runtime.(With the BWA, you would not have to create/maintain aggregates.)

Administration Cockpit: Data Load Status


You can display the execution andrequest status of processes, processchains, InfoProviders and BW objectsfor a selected BW system. You usethis information to:

? Identify the status of processes andprocess chains

? Identify the number of incorrectrequests or records

This allows you to:

?Minimize failures when loading datainto the system

? Detect problems in the system

status details of? InfoCubes, DataStore objects, Master data (only flexible update)? PSA tables

status details of Process Chains, Data Transfer Processes, InfoPackages, DataStore object activations,InfoCube compressions, Hierarchy and Attribute change runs and other processes

with various key figures and characteristics ? Total numbers of requests, Last request, Time-stamp of last change

New Technical Content for Data Load Status:QueriesTechnical content queries for analyzing

each for the several criteria? All requests Not activated(only for DataStore objects)? Qualitatively not OK (not for PSA) Not compressed (only for InfoCubes)? Technically not OK (filter criterion) Not aggregated (only for InfoCubes)
