Business scenario:

In our business scenario, we  needed an ABAP program which can delete the data from the WO DSO’s based on the day interval or the number of the requests needed to be deleted from a given specified date. For eg if in a WO DSO’s we want to delete the request for September and October months, then we will provide the details as 1.09.2012 and 31.10.2012 for the deletion of data or if we want to delete the latest request for the month of October then we will put 31.10.2012 and request count as 1.In case two requests are needed to be deleted then we can give 2 as request count. Detail explanation is provided below:

User Manual:

As shown in the selection screen below, we have to specify the WO DSO’s name and Date-To as they are mandatory parameters.

Date-To: specify the date below which data will be deleted.

Date From: specify the date after which the data will be deleted.

Request Count: specify the number of requests we want to delete from the respective WO DSO’s.

Both these dates are inclusive and will be included during data deletion.

Validations:

  • Between Date From or Request count, only one of them should be mentioned        

    

    

  • Both Date From or Request count shouldn’t be mentioned simultaneously

        

    

  • Date To should be greater than Date From

    

    

Demo1 :Using Date To and Date from in the selection screen

Executing the program

In the Selection screen, enter the WO DSO’s names and the values for Date To and Date From as shown above.

Before Image:

DSO1

DSO2

Expected Result: So according to the criteria specified above, request id 6919830 should get deleted from the  DSO1 and request id 6919829 should get deleted from the  DSO2.

Program Output:

After the program completion a message will trigger showing the details of the request deleted from the WO DSO’s as shown above.

After Image:

DSO1

DSO2

Actual Result: Same as expected result.Requests 6919830 & 6919829 from DSO1 and DSO2 got deleted successfully as shown above.

Demo2 :Using Date To and Date from in the selection screen

Executing the program

In the selection screen enter the WO DSO’s details, then the Date To and after that Request Count. According to the above selection criteria, the first request present in the WO DSO’s corresponding to date less than equal to 23.10.2012 will get deleted from both the WO DSO’s . For e.g. if we have two requests which was updated on the WO DSO’ s on 23.10.2012  then the request which got loaded later deleted. Also if we don’t have any request loaded in WO DSO’s on 23.10.2012 then the requests for the date less than 23.10.2012 will be checked and deleted i.e. if we have request for date 22.10.2012 and 21.10.2012 then the 22.10.2012 request will be deleted depending upon the request count in the last loaded first deleted basis.

Before image:

DSO1

DSO2

Expected Result: So according to the criteria specified above, request id 6837629 should get deleted from the  DSO1 and request id 6837628 should get deleted from the  DSO2.

Program Output:


After Image:
DSO1

DSO2

Actual Result: Same as expected result.


Other Utilities:  It can be used in process chains to delete the overlapping requests from the WO DSO’s.

As shown in the below screen, we have used the ABAP program to delete the over lapping requests from the WO DSO’s DSO1 and DSO2.

For the field name Date To Click on the button highlighted above, a new window will appear.In this window choose Dynamic Date calculation.

Now click on the button highlighted above, a new screen will appear, here choose current date.

      Hi Jai,

      I have a similar case but bit different requirement scenario. Let me explain .

      We have daily drop and reload from Master data View (Oracle system) through info package to DSO. This is historical data load that run 6 times a day. Every time the process chain runs it will drop the data from DSO and then FULL load from MD client. In every full load there will very little change in data volume.

      To avoid every time full load, we need to load only for the incremental data based on load date / Time selection , which would reduce the run time as well as not make the report blank momentarily (report based on this DSO) which is happening currently when this chain executed in system.

      So is there any way that we can run the load only to bring the incremental change of data from MDC OR Delete the previously loaded request from DSO after the next load on the same day.

      Please suggest me how I achieve this requirement.

      Regards,

      Kishore

      Hi,

      thank you very much for the code. However, it shows me an error: at line 159

      I tried to implement the code you suggested me, but there is the following error:

      Line 159

      Field "L_REQCNTL_REQCNT" is unknown. It is neither in one of the following specified tables nor defined by a "DATA" statement.

      Thank you

      Hi Regys,

      L_REQCNT is the field (it is repeated) and then is L_REQCNT2.

      Gorka.

      can this be used to delete request from ADSO's acting like cube?

       

      Thanks
