As you may have noticed, there is NO native option to manage load requests for the SAP BW Open Hub in transaction RSA1. However, there is an alternative way to perform this maintenance and load management easily, as I will show in this post.

“Manage” loads for Open HUB

The administration of the loads for Open Hub will be carried out from the DTP (Data Transfer Process) that loads the data.

The Open Hub basically follows the flow shown in the figure below, where we have a data source and the destination (the Open Hub itself) and the DTP transferring this data.

As the Open Hub does not have the “Manage” option in the RSA1 transaction, as it happens in all other data targets, the administration of load requests will be done within the DTP.

Enter the DTP settings, go to the “Goto” menu –> “DTP Monitor”:

DTP screen, in sap bw, in RSA1, Go To menu, DTP Monitor
DTP screen, menu Goto -> DTP Monitor

The list of all load requests made from this DTP to the destination Open Hub will be displayed.

💡Tip: click on the button below “New selection” to change and filter the desired period:

Select the request you want to delete to enter the DTP monitor:

Click on “Overall Status” and mark the request as “Status Erroneous” (Red):

Change Global Status to Incorrect Status (red) screen on Open Hub load

After marking as incorrect status, note that a new button (trash) appears on the DTP process monitor display:

Open hub DTP monitor screen showing global status wrong incorrect red and trash icon to delete, erase, delete sap bw open hub load requisition data

Click on the trash button and select “Yes” to delete the request:

Screen shows DTP Monitor, Delete Load Request for Open Hub
DTP Monitor, Delete Load Request for Open Hub
Open Hub DTP Monitor screen with Global Status deleted, deleted, purged
Request deleted from Open Hub

Once this is done, the data will be physically deleted from the Open Hub table for that request.

💡Tip:

If there is more than one DTP and you are not sure which one is being used, you can check by accessing the Manage ADSO Data source, clicking on “Show Connections”, and then on “Show DTPs” as shown below:

Please note that the DTP used to send the data to the Open Hub Services destination will be displayed.

SE14 – Option 2

A second option, a bit more aggressive, is to delete the entire content of the Open Hub table via transaction SE14.

Access the Open Hub configuration screen in transaction RSA1 to obtain the technical name of the Open Hub table:

screen showing rsa1, modeling tab, option Destination open hub, destination open hub display: synthesis and overview
RSA1 -> Modeling -> Open Hub Destination Display: Overview

Access transaction SE14 (Utilities for Dictionary Tables) with the obtained table.

Select the option “Delete data” and then click on “Activate and adjust database”:

The data in the entire table will be deleted.


Conclusion

In this post, we learned an alternative way to delete data from Open Hub by managing the loads through the DTP request monitor. This option is safer and does not require using transaction SE14, which is usually a restricted transaction. However, we also discussed using this transaction as an alternative 2.
