The document is aimed at all those who are at beginner level in BW. I am trying to give some information about
Direct Update DSO and how to find process chain name which includes APD for direct update DSO. Content is
purely based on my work experience & learnings.

Applies to:
SAP BI/BW 7.0 and above.
DSO:

DSO stands from DATA STORE OBJECT. DSOs have a 2-dimensional flat database table that contains key
figures and characteristics. Data can be aggregated as well be over-written into DSO. We can use DSOs for
direct reporting but usually we use InfoCube.
Types of DSO :
Type

Structure

Data Supply

Standard DSO

Consist of 3 tables : Activation Queue,


Table of active data, change log

Via DTP

Write Optimized DSO

Direct Update DSO :


Direct update DSO ensures that the data is available quickly, and can be written to the DSO by several users
at the same time. So when we use this DSO , data get updated in active table directly which reduces time of activation
process like Standard DSO.

Re: How to find source information for many
Direct update DSOs at a time

Key Points :
SIDs cant be generated in such DSO.
Data records with same key are not aggregated in such DSO.
Every record have its own technical key.
Supports parallel load.
While creating DSO we need to specify type of DSO. So in this case choose option - Direct Update.

Finding chain for Direct update DSO

Business Scenario : When we work with Direct update DSO and we need to track data load but
we dont know how it get loaded/by which APD into DSO. We cant find chain name directly as
there are no requests in direct update DSO administration.

Hi Yogen,
Can you please clarify below points:
1. By my understanding technical keys are available in Write optimized dso, but where in Direct
update dso.
2. If technical keys are not there how parral load is possible.
3. Data is aggregated based on key fields.
Please clarify my doubts.

i) Write-Optimized DSO, the Key fields are Called Semantic keys.Along with Semantic Keys
it maintains Technical Key for every record and this key is unique.Technical Key is made by
Request ID , Package ID , Record No. & Data is loaded with help of DTP.
ii) Direct Update DSO,the key fields will be decided based on the source tables or the data
source which we are using. & Data is loaded from API's.
