I have read the first guidance document about inventory cubes in relation to BW on HANA(SAP First Guidance – SAP Netweaver BW 7.30 on HANA Inventory InfoCubes).
I was trying to establish the first scenario(simple table and 3 dtp's) which is described in the document. But I have to say I have some issues and I am thinking that it must be something which I am doing wrong (I have tried it in two systems on 7.4 sps08 and sps09 respectively).
I have the three types of data in the source table
I - Init record (only 1)
H - History record(2 of those)
D - Delta record(2 of those)
And I load in the above sequence. After loading all of the 5 records(before compression) have the following recordtypes:
1 record with the record type 1 (the init one)
2 records with record type 2 (the historical ones)
2 records with record type “ “ (blank - the delta records)
On hana everything is in partition 4 for now - as expected ;-)
Once I run the compression I get my delta and historical records mixed into the same partition - I expected that these would be in separate partitions. When displaying the data in BW the record type for the delta and history is 2 (the blank value on deltas was overwritten with 2).
Does anyone have some pointers ?
Best regards
Michael
