Assigning a diff source system
I have an infopackage which takes data from SQL server. Now I want to change it to a flat file. But the datasource,TR and Update rules remains same. Just the source system is going to be diff:
Whats the best way and steps to acheive this.........
Hi RVN,
The update rules can remain the same, but you need to change the datasource and transfer rules. Under your InfoSource you need to right click and assign the flat file source system. For flat files, there is no datasource on the source system side...you need to create the datasource which is nothing but a listing of the fields of the flat file. Make sure that the fields in both these places are listed in the same order.
Hope this helps...

Remocute ??? how to assign to a source system
hi all,
Created an SAP RemoteCube for InfoSource 0CO_OM_CCA_9 in the customer system by using the proposed characteristics and key figures from InfoSource 0CO_OM_CCA_9.
then i tried to assign a relevant source system to this RemoteCube but i am not to able to assign my source system,bcos it is in disabled mode... ..
Any way to assign my source sytem??
Ganesham following the below mentioned document to work on Reconciliation scenario.
but am not able to assign my source system to my remotecube... you may find the actual screen shot in the 15th page of this document.

Inconsistent Dev System: Infosource assigned to incorrect Source System
Hello all
Our Development box contains inconsistent assignments of infosources to source system.
When I compare the dev, quality and production boxes I find:
> Quality and Prod are consistent and all infosource systems are assigned to correct source systems - all loads execute as expected.
> However I find ips defined in the process chains in Quality and Production under incorrect source systems in the Development box.
> Also, the inconsistencies are varied for ex: SALESORG_ATTR is assigned to source system Y, while SALESORG_TEXT is assigned to source system X, while 0CUSTOMER_ATTR is assigned to source system Z ( where Z is the correct source system).
I have not been able to figure what lead to this inconsistency except that I am aware that there were plugins installed and some refreshes done followed up by BDLS.
I did try having BASIS execute BDLS to convert all logical systems X to Z ( but there were errors in the log stating that destination Z already exists - which is correct since for ex 0CUSTOMER_ATTR is assigned correctly to source system Z)
I was considering the following to rectify this situation:
1> Make the rectifications manually
1a> Identify all the infosources in all the process chains in quality/production
1b>Manually reassign all infsources/datasources to the right source system
1c>Check all the mapping rules (transfer rules) and ensure they are same as quality/production
1d> Activate the transfer rules
1e>Create infopackages
1f> Transport the ips to quality and reassign them to the process chains.
> This is a very labourious task and invovles high risk due to manual effort
2> Refresh from quality into dev
2a> Recreate the transport routes
2b> Resynchronize all the loads with the R3 dev box
> This would cause loss of version history and therefore not recommended by SAP
3> Rollback to a restore point
3a> We would need to find whether we maintain a restore point in the past before which the system were consistent.
3b> Reimport all the transports from the restore point till date
4> Rerun BDLS
4a> This might involve deleting all occurences of source system Z from the dev box
Please advise what would be the best approach / if theres a better way to address this issue.
Thankyou
EditedHi,
Goto RSA1 in yy BWQ system.
In the Menu ---> Tools ---> Mapping of Source System Names ( Shift + F6)
Change the Target Source System as BWP server.
Now move the transport to BWQ. Your BWP will be assigned as source system.

Assigning R/3 source system to BW
Hello Gurus,
could someone pls give me the exact procedure of assiging an R/3 source system to a BW system (BI 7.0). I was told that only people from the Basis are permitted to do this. Is that true, or can I also assign R/3 to BW?
Thanks,
SD
PS: Points will surely be awardedHi,
please go through the following document. You can establish the connection without the help of Basis but bear in mind this is a basis task.

Source system assignement in production
Hi all
Before importing any requests which are related to infosource , cubes and update rules into production, do we need to make any source system assignment in production system?
I have directly imported into production but there were no source system / data source assignments to these infosource.
can you please suggest what to do for these souce system assignments in production.
thanks in advance
ANHi,
you have to assign the production source system to your BW system. After replication of the DataSources, you can import your development from the BW development system.
Important is the conversion in the SPRO Transaction - Change source system name after transport. In this view you have to type in the source system name of the source system linked to your development system and the name of the source system linked to your production system. During import to production system, BW will automatically change the source system names.

Business Content Source System Assignment???
Hi Gurus,
i am installing Business content and after going thru few posts in this Forums i have been hearing about Source system assignment in the Business content screen.
but when ever i installed i never really used this option and we have only one R/3 source system
Can anybody explain me its functionality please
thankyou
harishWhen you activate Business Content, DataSources from source systems are assigned to InfoSources in SAP BW. If you do not select a source system, all source systems are automatically assigned. If you have several source systems this may take a lot of time because transfer rules have to be activated for each DataSource from each source system.
However an assignment of a DataSource to an InfoSource may not be necessary for all existing Source systems.
Assign only the source systems you need to load data from for the Business Content Objects that you are going to activate.
You can subsequently change the selection you made.
The assignment of source systems is only relevant for transfer rules, DataSources and InfoPackages. If there is more than one source system, only those objects assigned to the specified source system are collected for the transfer. Objects that have not been assigned to the specified source systems are ignored. -

Remote Cube With Source System SQL
Hello
I had create connection with SQL Server.
I had generate Datasource.
I had Create a Remote Infocube.
But I can't Assign SQL as source System
Is this possible?Hi
I think it can work for any system , for SQL server you need to create a view for BW to fetch data from the SQL tables.
when the view is ready you can create ODS or any infoprovider on it.
Hope this helps.

Hello
In our Quality Box , I need to change the source system connection (from QR1 to QR2). I created the new connection successfully. Now the issue is all the Transfer structure still using OLD connection ( i.e QR1) . I run BDLS and it did not word. How can I re-assign the new source system (QR1) to all of my Transfer structures in one go. Is there any report ?
FarooqHello,
You cant directly convert the existing objects for a source system to the new source system.
For that you need to do a transport of the objects to the QA box while maintaining the entry in BDLS to convert to the new source system.

How to verify the Source systems connectivity with BWQ System.
Hi All,
I have diff source systems. And my requirement is to check the source systems connectivity with BWQ (BW Quality sys). please any body tell me the steps how to check the source system connectivity ?
Thanks & Regards,
ManjuHi Manjula,
If you encounter problems when establishing a connection to your target server, check the following:
A message box appears while performing one of the following actions:
Setting connection by choosing Apply to local session.
Testing connection settings by choosing Test settings.
Creating SAP TSQL objects
If errors occurred, they are displayed in the respective message box.
Check developer trace files in ST11.
Test connection:
For RFC related errors, check the RFC connection via SM59
For database multi-connect errors, check if you can connect to the target SQL Server with the SQL Server Query Analyzer. Also check if the DBCON entries are correct.
Regards,

I created a source system for our R/3 QA client. The RFC connection works ok between R/3 and BW. I've done the following steps:
Define client administration
Define Logical System
Assign Logical system to client
Create RFC User
Connecting BW with R/3
In the last step I selected Replicate Metadata and chose Only Activate
I get the following error message:
No metadata upload since upgrade RSAR 672

Restore transfer rules after source system deletion
Hello,
due to several reasons I had to cut source system assignment.
The source system is now new connected to BW.
My transfer rules and datasources are lost.
Is there a programm, t-code, ....available to restore that stuff?
Points will be assigned.
Best regards.
PascalHello,
Just go to transaction rsa13 right-click over your source system and choose "Restore"

BW linked to two ECC source systems
Hi,
We are planning to create a sceneraio in whih our BW quality (client 350) will be linked to two different ECC clients (550 & 590).
Earlirer 350 was linked to 550 only.
Now the question is while transporting request from BW development (client 310) to BW Quality (350), will it ask the source system??
For which source sytem request will be transported, 550 or 590???
Pls. clear the concept.
Thanks in advance
Shilpi GuptaHi Shilpi,
It seems you are bit confused about the connection and the transport.Let me try to add some more points.
Your source system is ECCDEV (540) and the target source system is ECCQUALOTY (590) . Your BW Quality is 350.
BW quality is connected with two source system (590 and 550).
All your BW objects are source system independent other than Transfer rules. So whenver you transport any objects from BW development to Quality (like InfoObjects,InfoSource,InfoCube ,ODS,update rules etc) there is no problem with the source system connection. It just appears in your BW Quality .But your transfer rules is dependent on the source system. So when you transport the transfer rules,you need to make sure that which source system (Qty) should carry that changes i.e.transfer rule mappings.
So you need to maintain this settings in the above mentioned transaction code,even if you use only one source system.
Then only your transport changes will appear in your quality transfer rules.Even though your quality BW system is assigned to two source system ,only one system will carry that transfer rule mappings.Hence this mapping is required for any case.
You can change the mapping anytime (from 590 to 540) using this tcode to get the transfer rule mappings for the other system.

Edited by: caoq2009 on Sep 24, 2009 10:48 AM分步检查,缩小范围:
1、确认BW的源系统连接是有效的:BW系统的RSA1->源系统->选择你需要的源系统,用鼠标右键点击check。
2、如果源系统有问题,可以用sm59测试看看RFC连接是否正确。
3、如果源系统没问题,可以重新复制数据源。
4、正常此步骤后复制过来的数据源应该就是正确的。 -
Error while assigning source system to SAP Remote cube
I need to do a query using remote cube and the source sys is flat file.
it wont let me assign the source system to the remote cube.
the r/3 system icon is seen next to the remote cube technical name...
I can't see my flatfile source system
can somebody help me.Hello Kiran,
I don't think its possible to use Remote cubes for PC_FILE or FLAT FILE as Source system.
You can use Virtual Providers in these different scenarios
Virtual Providers based on DTP => used for SAP source systems
Virtual Providers based on BAPI => used for non-SAP or external systems
Virtual Providers bsaed on Function modules => You use this VirtualProvider if you want to display data from non-BI data sources in BI without having to copy the dataset into the BI structures. The data can be local or remote. You can also use your own calculations to change the data before it is passed to the OLAP processor. This function is used primarily in the SAP Strategic Enterprise Management (SEM) application.
Use InfoObects as Virtual Providers
Your case is none of these.
