Add Characteristic to Active DSO

Hi, We want to add a characteristic to an existing and actively loaded DSO. We are adding the characteristic to the end of the DSO and plan on populating the new characteristic with ABAP.

Will we run into any problems transporting this changed DSO into Production when it's loaded with data? I'm thinking it should transport fine and all we should have to do is reactivate the transformations.

Thanks,

Hi,

you can include char to the active DSO, there is no problem DSO is nothing but a table. after transport make sure all objects in the data flow are active else activate them. as this is new to DSO, for this object history data will not be available.

So transporting this DSO Change will not impact the existing data in Production? I am wondering if it will take longer because the DSO has 5 million records in it....

Thanks

Hi,

Transport will take normal time may be another few more minutes. but make sure your transport contains all the objects of the DSO data flow, and they moved in sequence.

Thanks, but I'm thinking I'll only need to Transport the DSO and the changed Transformation Rule.

Can you confirm?

Thanks!

WHen you change a transformation, the DTP is deactivated too.. So you need to send the DTP as well..

When you are transporting the same into production - the transport will adjust your existing DSO structure - this requires a lot of space on the Undo tablespaces.

Make sure that there is enough free space in the undo tablespace in production atleast equal to or greater than your table size. ( Table would refer to Active table )
