How to automatically add a dummy member under parent in MD to load the actuals of the parent while loading the MD from BW infoprovider?

[pankajkumar_gilda79]

Hello BPC Gurus

   I am trying to load the actual from BW info provider. The DMP run with Warning as status message. There were some rejected records when drilled down I found that there are actuals at parent level captured in ECC. To overcome this issue a dummy member has to be added below the parent level of each WBS Parent member i.e. R_FR01_01 should have a dummy member R_FR01_01_DM.  I want this to automate while loading the MD from BW to BPC. As in future the client may add n number of WBS set in real time.

    Can you please advice me on how to do this? Is this has to be done at Transformation > Mapping or at Conversion file.

Look at the WBS structure:

The concept of using Start and End Routines  (BADI) in Transformation Files is described in Detail here: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-4230

For this you need ABAP know how.

Kind regards,

If there is some logic to separate required parents then you can create additional master data load with conversion file to create extra members...

Vadim,

Yes I can separate the parents. But can you show me how in Conversion file I make use so that I can create the extra member.

For Ex:

My parent member is R_R101

New dummy member can be R_R101_D

Thanks in advance Vadim.

Not extra member - one line - one member!

Even in transformation file you can use something like:

WBS=WBS+*STR(_D)

in Conversion:

JS: %external% + "_D"

Hi KMG,

Use routine in your transformation file to create extra nodes.

You need ABAP knowledge to resolve this issue.
