Fiscal Variant (0FISCVARNT) missing in DataSource

[Former Member]

Hi Guru's,

I am trying to create a transformation or rules between the sales item data source and sales item ods.

After creating most of the transformation i check to see if the rules are correct. I get a warning saying "No rule maintained for 0FISCVARNT".

I have transferred the global settings from the source system and the table T009 shows the variant I am looking for.

My question is since the datasource does not have any Fiscal Variant field how do I map it to the ODS.

Should I use a constant or is there some other way?

From what I understand is that I should have a value coming in from the source system and which is then checked against the global settings in BI, which is further user for calculation of fiscal period by mapping say posting date to the fiscal period.

Pls help as I am newbie to this entire system.

Thanks

Hi Folks,

Appreciate your replies. I shall try to address each of your replies:

From what I gather is since I do not have any source field for the fiscal variant and usally an org follows a single fiscal variant, set it to constant. In my case V3.

Or

An alternative is to enhance the datasource on the CRM side and get it into the BI system.

Please confirm?

My datasource is 0CRM_SALES_ORDER_I and this datasource is missing the fiscal variant.

Thanks,

Hello Rajesh,

Are you sure you don't have the Fiscal Year variant in the source? Hw many Fiscal Year Variant values do you have? If you don't have Fiscal Year variant in the source, whats the need of retricting it to constant value in BI?

Thanks
