BCS-BW Which transaction post in the document ODS

Question: We are implementing SEM-BCS BW based version 3.5

I was wondering how does the system knows when to post the document ODS and when does it post directly to the Total infocube.

Exemple: Currency translation does not generate anything in the ODS (Is it normal or just bad configuration on our part)

When I do a manual entry for an adjustment of reporting data (posting level 01) it does not generate an entry in the ODS. Is it the the posting level that dictates what goes in the ODS?

As you can see, I am trying to found what the rule is. I would appreciated any feedback on this. Even if you don't know the rule, I would still appreciated if you tell me which one of your transactions are creating document in the ODS. It will at least give me an ideal of the possibility.

Thank you

Answer:
ODS is updated only when a document is involved. During currency translation, excel upload and layout entry no document is created. Thus only the cube is updated with totals.

You can easily verify this by checking the customization. There is no customization for the document type for the tasks above. The same will apply to apportionment once it will be developed.

Hi there
You probably need to urgently apply note 720668 which is where the documents cube is not being updated and only the totals cube. I believe this may sort your problem. Applies to 3.2, 3.5 and 3.51

Came out last week - hot off the press...
