i have to import bulk data in SAP HANA without using data services. is there any methods from which bulks of data can be loaded?

Things that i have done :

One time load of bulk data with ctl files using HANA studio by storing the ctl and csv on the HANA server.

things that are to b implemented:

How to automate the task of loading the updated csv files into the HANA server.

How to automate to load the contents into the database without using HANA studio.

i have set the date hierarchy in the Attribute view in HANA but whenevr i try to view in the analysis edition tool it doesnot drill down unlike if i see the same in excel wher i can easily able to drill down the hierachy.

does anyone set the hierarchy and have used it well in the analysis edition.?

thanks in advance.

Dear Team,

We are trying install a HANA DB on host where already 4 HANA database instances are installed (This MCOS option is fine since it is sandbox purpose)

When we installing new system, we ended up with below error

Hi,

I'm currently putting together a decision table and have come across a bit of a challenge. I have a decision table that is setup as follows:

DECISION TABLE

I've applied some basic rules and the decision table in principle is working well. Where I've hit a brick wall is where I want to apply the return value to other rows in a table. The example I have is:

I have a table with the following rows:

FOUNDATION TABLE

The rule I'm trying to model is, if Field 1 is X and Field 2 is A then set the value for Field 3 to 100 for Rows where Field 1 is X and Field 2 is A, but also, set Field 3 to 100 where Field 2 is B. I've thought about transposing Field 2 to seperate columns in my foundation table, however, this would considerably widen my table.

Am I trying to model the impossible, or is there something that I am missing.

Thanks for any help.

Regards,

Gary

Hi folks,

I'm looking at the SQL behind some of our larger tables replicated from SAP and see some have extra concatenated attributes similar to this;

ALTER TABLE "OURSCHEMA"."MSEG" WITH PARAMETERS ('CONCAT_ATTRIBUTE'=('$LGORT$MATNR$WERKS$',

          'LGORT',

          'MATNR',

          'WERKS'))

Does anybody have any further documentation about this, why it exists exactly and what the benefits are?  At first I thought it was simply a concatenation of KEY fields (and most indeed are) but some of the fields being concatenated are not KEYS.  Some of these concatenated attributes seem like common ways I might want to join to other tables so I wonder why they wouldn't just all be KEY fields to begin with as well.  So I'm wondering the logic behind this and if SAP has pre-chosen all of these combinations.  The other reason I'm asking is I was told by SAP in the past, when looking into huge memory consumption issues for BSEG for example - ie: noticed in some cases record count growth did not directly tie to memory consumption growth) that some additional memory is required for concatenated attributes.  So I just want to understand this better and can not find any documentation anywhere on this.  I noticed some very old SQL Script guides (HANA SPS 01!) had very vague examples of CONCAT_ATTRIBUTE but it was removed in later documentation.

Thanks for any information you may have on this subject,

Can we use java script as a source in BODS?

We have a requirement where we are getting source in a java script and tranform this and load it in Oracle DB

We are using BODS version 3.2.

Please suggest.

I am new to this area so looking for some information from folks who have implemented HANA in their company.

1. When you connect SAP HANA to R3 system. Do you load entire SAP R3 Database into SAP HANA or load selective Tables/ Data.

2. How is frequently data is loaded in Hana so that one can say "REAL TIME DATA". Do we run jobs to keep loading data every minute . Hows is this process of data load  done .

3. Reporting. Do we report directly on hana database or use BO as front end tool to run report out of Hana . What is the SAP recommendation when its come to reporting.  Should we install SAP BW on Hana and then use BO to report or Directly load Data in Hana and run reports.

4. Does Hana Appliance are good enough to provide standard reporting needs.

Would appreciate if members can provide information on what they have seen or implemented

Thanks

Dear HANA Gurus.

What is faster in HANA for selecting -  varchar(9) field or integer field?

With high cardinality values. By example order number.

Hi Friends,

we  are having requirements for caliculation on picking date based input variable(date variable) in this case what ever the date we enter it shoud caliculate with picking date(KODAT) if it is >2 that is routing    between 4 to 3 shipping more than that loaded to ship based on the dates i need to cliculate total amount of value is shiiped , routing  that values i have to post in another column of calicuted view.

We are in the process of building a solution based on BW on HANA with a green field approach. Everything is new. The first goal is to deliver KPIs from data extracted from ECC and enable flexible reporting for power users.

So far our approach has been to use BEx queries to feed the data to Dashboards (Xcelsius) via BICS. Also BEx super queries have been created containing every KPI in scope, so in the future (in theory) a dashboard can be easily connected to this query when using a KPI on a new dashboard is needed.

I'd like to validate if this approach is OK, since we've had internally several discussion regarding the need og having BEx queries: some are of the opinion that they're needed in order to leverage new OLAP in memory abilities and other are of the opinion that with Calculated and Analytic views is enough to get the job done to feed the dashboards.

Also, som are of the opinion that BEx queries are still there just to provide backwards compatibility on non green field instalations: e.g. migration from BW to BW on HANA.

Your opinions are hihgly appreciated.

Hi All,

While trying to activate the data source 2LIS_11_VAHDR and 0MATERIAL_TEXT in the BW System for DXC consumption I get the following error -

Error in HANA DB system: Unable to modify DSO table '2LIS_11_VAHDR': no key field defined (at least one of the defined columns must be a key column)

How can the data source keys be maintained.

Pl assist. Thanks.
