30. What are Cleansing Packages?

Answer:

These are packages that enhance the ability of Data Cleanse to accurately process various forms of global data by including language-specific reference data and parsing rules.

31. What is Data Cleanse?

Answer:

The Data Cleanse transform identifies and isolates specific parts of mixed data, and standardizes your data based on information stored in the parsing dictionary, business rules defined in the rule file, and expressions defined in the pattern file.

32. What is the difference between Dictionary and Directory?

Answer:

Directories provide information on addresses from postal authorities. Dictionary files are used to identify, parse, and standardize data such as names, titles, and firm data.

33. Give some examples of how data can be enhanced through the data cleanse transform, and describe the benefit of those enhancements.

Answer:

Enhancement Benefit
Determine gender distributions and target
Gender Codes marketing campaigns
Provide fields for improving matching
Match Standards results

34. A project requires the parsing of names into given and family, validating address information, and finding duplicates across several systems. Name the transforms needed and the task they will perform.

Answer:

Data Cleanse: Parse names into given and family.
Address Cleanse: Validate address information.
Match: Find duplicates.

35. Describe when to use the USA Regulatory and Global Address Cleanse transforms.

Answer:

Use the USA Regulatory transform if USPS certification and/or additional options such as DPV and Geocode are required. Global Address Cleanse should be utilized when processing multi-country data.

36. Give two examples of how the Data Cleanse transform can enhance (append) data.

Answer:

The Data Cleanse transform can generate name match standards and greetings. It can also assign gender codes and prenames such as Mr. and Mrs.

37. What are name match standards and how are they used?

Answer:

Name match standards illustrate the multiple ways a name can be represented.They are used in the match process to greatly increase match results.

38. What are the different strategies you can use to avoid duplicate rows of data when re-loading a job.

Answer:

Using the auto-correct load option in the target table.
Including the Table Comparison transform in the data flow.
Designing the data flow to completely replace the target table during each execution.
Including a preload SQL statement to execute before the table loads.

39. What is the use of Auto Correct Load?

Answer:

It does not allow duplicated data entering into the target table.It works like Type 1 Insert else Update the rows based on Non-matching and matching data respectively.

40. What is the use of Array fetch size?

Answer:

Array fetch size indicates the number of rows retrieved in a single request to a source database. The default value is 1000. Higher numbers reduce requests, lowering network traffic, and possibly improve performance. The maximum value is 5000

41. What are the difference between Row-by-row select and Cached comparison table and sorted input in Table Comparison Tranform?

Answer:

Row-by-row select —look up the target table using SQL every time it receives an input row. This option is best if the target table is large.
Cached comparison table — To load the comparison table into memory. This option is best when the table fits into memory and you are comparing the entire target table
Sorted input — To read the comparison table in the order of the primary key column(s) using sequential read.This option improves performance because Data Integrator reads the comparison table only once.Add a query between the source and the Table_Comparison transform. Then, from the query’s input schema, drag the primary key columns into the Order By box of the query.

42. What is the use of using Number of loaders in Target Table?

Answer:

Number of loaders loading with one loader is known as Single loader Loading. Loading when the number of loaders is greater than one is known as Parallel Loading. The default number of loaders is 1. The maximum number of loaders is 5.

43. What is the use of Rows per commit?

Answer:

Specifies the transaction size in number of rows. If set to 1000, Data Integrator sends a commit to the underlying database every 1000 rows.

44. What is the difference between lookup (), lookup_ext () and lookup_seq ()?

Answer:

lookup() : Briefly, It returns single value based on single condition
lookup_ext(): It returns multiple values based on single/multiple condition(s)
lookup_seq(): It returns multiple values based on sequence number

45. What is the use of History preserving transform?

Answer:

The History_Preserving transform allows you to produce a new row in your target rather than updating an existing row. You can indicate in which columns the transform identifies changes to be preserved. If the value of certain columns change, this transform creates a new row for each row flagged as UPDATE in the input data set.

46. What is the use of Map-Operation Transfrom?

Answer:

The Map_Operation transform allows you to change operation codes on data sets to produce the desired output. Operation codes: INSERT UPDATE, DELETE, NORMAL, or DISCARD.

47. What is Heirarchy Flatenning?

Answer:

Constructs a complete hierarchy from parent/child relationships, and then produces a description of the hierarchy in vertically or horizontally flattened format.

Parent Column, Child Column
Parent Attributes, Child Attributes.

48. What is the use of Case Transform?

Answer:

Use the Case transform to simplify branch logic in data flows by consolidating case or decision-making logic into one transform. The transformallows you to split a data set into smaller sets based on logical branches.

49. What must you define in order to audit a data flow?

Answer:

You must define audit points and audit rules when you want to audit a data flow.

50. List some factors for PERFORMANCE TUNING in data services?

Answer:

The following sections describe ways you can adjust Data Integrator performance

Source-based performance options
Using array fetch size
Caching data
Join ordering
Minimizing extracted data
Target-based performance options
Loading method and rows per commit
Staging tables to speed up auto-correct loads

A: Employers often use their own formulae to calculate the rate for overtime. SAP has implemented the following formula in the GB Model Company to provide a template:

The valuation basis /005, which calculates the rate at the formula rate, has been implemented, and a new wage type M019, which pays at double that rate for overtime on Bank Holidays. The formula is implemented in calculating valuation basis /005 in personnel calculation rules G010 and G013 in the schema G000 (subschema GT00).

An employee is on an annual salary of £10,000 and works 40 hours per week.

Normal overtime rate = 10000 x 7, divide by 365, divide by 40 = £4.79

If the employee works on overtime on Christmas Day, he or she will get double that rate, so in effect will be paid at £9.58 per hour.

· You can include information on a different payment with the employee remuneration information. If you do, the specified wage types are valuated according to the different pay scale group/level or the different position, for example, further on in the payroll run.

· This enables you to use this component as an interface to external time management systems. In this case, a Business Application Interface (BAPI) is used to supply the employee remuneration information with time wage types.

· You can use the Cross-Application Time Sheet to supply Human Resources with information on bonuses (for example, travel allowance).

61. Differentiate between Positive and negative Time?

A: Positive T.M: a method of time recording which not only uses deviations from monthly work schedule ( absences, O.T),but also actual clock in /out time of an employee to determine attendances and absences time.

Negative T.M: Record only deviations from the work schedule.

EX:- Illness, schedule and record substitutions and enter employee’s standard annual leave.

62. Mention the processing types in Time evaluation?

A: An indicator in time evaluation and time data processing in payroll that controls the selection of wage types.

Example

You can select different wage types for times determined in time evaluation to have the processing type "M" (for overtime) than for times for which the processing type "S" (planned working time) was determined.

63. Give brief information about time wage types and balance reflects into cluster tables

A: Primary wage type that: The system makes available by means of time data information.

Time wage types are selected by the system using time wage type selection in Time Evaluation.

Time wage types are only written with a number (usually of hours) to the payroll program and, it is only at this point that they are evaluated.

Example

The standard system contains a model wage type Overtime Bonus 50%. You can use the customizing system to define conditions that must be met before the Overtime bonus 50% time wage type can be assigned to an employee.

Such conditions could be as follows:

The employee must have worked at least 2 hours of overtime.
The employee must have worked on a weekend.
The employee must have worked on a public holiday.

Whenever the conditions you defined are met, the system automatically selects the time wage type Overtime bonus 50% for the employee in question.

Using the report Display Cluster NS (RPCLSTNS), you can display the content of the Cluster NS for a certain evaluation period. Based on this data, you can answer the following questions for the personnel number you selected:

How often did the employee work nightshifts of heavy labor during the month?
How often did the employee work nightshifts of heavy labor during the leave year?
In how many leave years is the employee entitled to additional leave?
How often was the employee absent from (planned) nightshifts of heavy labor?
How many months are added to the employee’s entitlement to a special pension?

The cluster NS was created/updated by running the report RPTNSHA0 (Nightshift Heavy Labor Law [NSchG]) for the employee in question.

64. Where you will find the Error Message?

A: The database log is a central log file, in which critical actions and error messages are stored. You must check this log when analyzing errors.

Procedure

1. In the System Administration Assistant click or call Transaction ST04.

3. Choose Database message Log.

4. In the next window that appears choose Diagnostic error messages.

5. The system displays the contents of file E:\db2<sid>\db2dump\db2diag.log if it is available. (The path is based on Ready-to-Run systems.)

6. Repeat steps 1 to 3 and now choose Alert Messages. The file E:\db2\<SID>\db2dump\db2alert.log is displayed if it is available.

7. Compare any error messages you see to the DB Message Reference

65. What are the infotypes data involved in Time evaluation

A: 0001, 0002,0007,2001,2002,2006,2007,2011,0050

66. Time events and Time pairs are stored in which tables?

A: The time postings stored in the SAP system, such as clock-in and clock-out or start and end of working time, that employee enter at a time recording terminal. Time events are uploaded from a time recording terminal to the SAP system. Time pairs are formed so that time events can be processed in time evaluation and each duration of time worked can be determined.Tables to maintain time events are: T705F; T705P

67. How to valuate the time wage types

A. You need this function to valuate time wage types.

During the payroll run, the system reads various time wage types from tables. These time wage types contain only one number (NUM). To calculate the amount (AMT) of the time wage type, the number must be multiplied by a rate (RTE). The system calculates the rate for each unit

 using averages

An employee has 14 days leave. The vacation allowance should be made up of the pay and 10% of all overtime bonuses from the last six months. To do this the system must calculate an average value .

 using a valuation basis

Your employee works overtime between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. In accordance with the company agreement, these two hours of overtime entitle the employee to an overtime bonus in addition to his or her basic remuneration.

Your Time Management system provides you with a Bonus for overtime wage type, which only contains the number of hours of overtime (2 hours in this example). The payroll program requires a rate by which to multiply the number in the Bonus for overtime wage type. To do this, you must define a valuation basis

71. What is use of Day rules

A: The rule for day types is used to determine whether the day in question is a working day, Saturday, Sunday or public holiday

72. What are the partial period factors

A: The factor required to calculate partial remuneration.

The factor is a variable value, calculated using different formulas depending on the company and situation. During the customizing, partial period factors are defined in personnel calculation rules for a specific situation and assigned to wage types for a particular period.
