Each SPO is made of multiple data providers of the same type with
identical structure.
While defining metadata for the SPO, the definition is being made
implicitly to the master provider, which is then used as a template to
create the part providers
The part providers are read only, changes to them can be made
only via the master provider

Qu1 : Is it possible to perform above on existing DSO, or we need to create a new DSO
and move date from old to new ?
Qu2 : What about multiple fiscal year variant data ? If data in DSO is having 2 fiscal year
variants, then how SPO can be handled?
Thank-You in advance.

vinod:
In step 7 above, you can either place a single value into a partition definition
or multiple. So, in theory you should be able to put multiple fiscal variants
into that box to define the partition.
OR,
You could create a whole new partition for the second fiscal variant by
clicking the +PARTITION button and defining it there. Ive played with this
(using different fields than fiscal variant) and it works great.

Good One
Daniel Ray
we have a dso to infocube flow. do we need to create spo only on the infocube right ? No
need to do SPO on the dso ?
2nd question, we need to build a MP on the infocube. Do we need to build the MP after
the spo partition or does not matter ? the Multiprovider will automatically get converted
from the existing infocube if SPO is built on it ? Please update.
thanks

Hello PAMARTHI
It was very good Document for SPO and it is very interesting to read and understand is
well
After going through this document, i got a doubt like for example if there is data from
2000 to 2015 and we created a multiple partition to load each year data separately, and
if we required to load next coming year do we required to create a new partition for the
upcoming year??

Hi Pamarthi
you can maintain the existing SPOby changes the filter conditions. i
would say you should create s separate partition for this.

Hi Vishnu,
I am trying to create New template of SPO. While creating I am getting the below error
as reference structure does not contain any characteristics. I have included the key fields
and data fields in the DSO. But still I am getting the error. Can you pls help.
2. Can you please provide steps to add new fields in all partitions of SPO.
Thanks.

May I know that you had already fixed the issue, if it is so then i can ask you
one question about the SPO, suppose if there is a requirement that you
need to create a multiple and number of SPos if there any FM to do this
and any program ??
Thanks
Siva
