Automatic Further Processing (SAP Library

Automatic Further Processing

Use

If you would like to use the InfoCube as a data source for another InfoCube or an ODS object, it is recommended that you make automatic settings to simplify further processing.

Functions

Setting the quality status to OK

You can specify that the quality status of the data is automatically set to OK after is loaded in the InfoCube. This is the prerequisite for processing the requests further.

Roll up

You can automatically roll up and transfer into the aggregate requests in the InfoCube with "green traffic light status", that is, with saved data quality.

Parallel data update in an InfoCube results in errors when automatically rolling up in the aggregates. The error is that not all data requests of the loading process are rolled up in the aggregates. In this case, delete all aggregates for the InfoCube and create them again.

To avoid this error, you can do one of the following:

do not carry out the data load in parallel but update the data packets in serial, or
do not automatically roll up when carrying out the data load in parallel and instead carry this out manually after loading has been successful, or
use InfoCube Roll Up in the event chain functionality on the tabstrip.

Compressing the InfoCube

You can compress an InfoCube for technical reasons of memory space or reporting performance, by deleting the request IDs.

This function is critical, as the compressed data can no longer be deleted from the InfoCube using its request IDs. You must be absolutely certain that the data loaded into the InfoCube is correct. For information about this, read Compressing InfoCubes.
