BO 4.0 Extract info from SAP BW Table

Hello Guys,
we would like to join SAP BEx Query with SAP BW Table. I thought of using the Information Desing Tool.
Do you know if Information Design tool can connect a SAP Table?
Thanks and regards,
Markus

Hello Markus,
the Information Design Tool is able to create a relational Universe on top of InfoProvider which will show the tables from the cube, but the Information Design Tool in the current release is not able to show the tables from the ERP system.

Steps:
1) Activate the application component hierarchy (tcode RSA9). Changes made to the application component hierarchy in the CRM system can be transferred to the BW using the "Edit Application Component Hierarchy" (SBIW - Postprocessing of DataSources).
SAP Note 434886 must be implemented in CRM 3.0 before the application component hierarchy is activated.
2) Activate the Business Content DataSources (tcode RSA5).
Select/enter the application component and choose Execute (F8).
To compare the shipped and active versions, choose the 'Select Delta' pushbutton. If there is no active version of the DataSource, it is selected automatically.
To activate the shipped version, choose the 'Transfer DataSources' pushbutton.
3) Management of the versions of the BW-Adapter metadata (tcode BWA5). All DataSources are displayed that are managed by the BW Adapter.
As in transaction RSA5 (Service API Metadata Activation), the 'Select Delta' function can be used to select the inactive DataSources or compare shipped and active versions.
You can also go directly to the screen for maintaining DataSources that are managed by the BW Adapter.
The 'Compare Version' function makes a detailed comparison of the shipped and active versions.
All BW-Adapter metadata is considered when versions are compared:
Header information (Table SMOXHEAD)
Mapping information (Table SMOXRELP)
Global selection conditions (Table SMOXGSEL)
Attribute key fields (Table SMOXAFLD)
Datasources used in CRM-BW extraction are:
0crm_sales_act_1,
0BBP_STSMA_TEXT
0CRMFOCST_TEXT
0CRM_ACCPLN_ATTR
0CRM_ACCPLN_TEXT
0CRM_BILL_BLCK_TEXT
0CRM_CANC_PARTY_TEX
0CRM_CANRSN_TEXT
0CRM_CATEGORY_ATTR

0CRM_ITM_OBJ_TYPE_T
0CRM_ITM_TYPE_TEXT
0CRM_JRGUID_TEXT

There many more!
Check the datasources in rsa6 of crm system under CRM node. Documentation is available in SAP help.

How to extract data from SAP in FDM 11121

I came across some documents from version 11113, says there is a SAP adapter, however ,when I check 11121 there's no such adapter, does anyone know how to extract data from SAP in FDM 11121?

I download a package from Bristlecone, but I dont see any xml files in it, just a bunch of dll and I didn't find any instructions on how to set up/configure in FDM, it just explained how to register in SAP app server and client.
Hyperion 11113 has readme on sap adapter(Hyperion Readme Template), but I cannot find the same readme file in 11121, all I can find is ERP Integration Adapter document. any idears where I can find at least a readme document?

Extracting Data from SAP ERP using BODI/Data Services 4.0

HI,
I am trying to extract data from SAP ERP via SAP extractors using BODI/Data Services 4.0.
I do not have my own ERP system so I am renting remote access from one of the many available on the internet.
I am able to connect BODI to the ERP system and import the extractors metadata.
The problem I am experiencing is that when I run job to extract the data I get the following error:
Vendor-supplied function module <Z_AW_RFC_READ_EXTRACTOR> not found. Ensure that you can execute the function module in SAP via transaction /nSE37.
How do I create the function? Or is the function a SAP standard function?
SAP ERP system being used is: ECC6 EHP4
User has SAP FULL and DEVELOPER authorizations.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Problem in Excel after extracting data from SAP Report

Hello,
I have a problem with Excel file after extracting it from one of the SAP report.
When my client extracted data from SAP in to excel he is coming across minus symbol on both sides of the number.
for ex: -447492177-
When i extracted same SAP report in to excel i didnt face any such problem.
Please share your inputs on what could be the problem.

1. Make sure your client and you are using the same version of Microsoft Excel
2. Let your client try to OPEN the exported xls file from a existed workbook instead of double-clicking the file directly.

How to Extract Data from SAP and Load it into Essbase

Hi All,
Can you recommend some ways to extract data from SAP and load it into Essbase?. I have no knowledge about SAP, not sure how I can perform this task. Can I use ODI for this job?
Thanks

hi,
Not sure if this helps but give a try
you can create connection from EAS to SAP .. using a plug-in .. if you have access to oracle Support go for [ID 968961.1]
or
below are steps
1. In EASPATH\console, open components.xml in a text editor.
2. Under <PluginList>, enter <Plugin archiveName="SAP" packageName="com.essbase.eas.sap.ui"/> before the closing </PlugIn> tag.
3. Save and close the file.
4. In EASPATH\console\bin, open admincon.lax in a text editor.
5. Search for lax.class.path= and append ;..\lib\sap_client.jar;..\lib \sap_common.jar to the entry. Save and close the file.
6. In EASPATH\server\bin, open adminsvr.lax in a text editor.
7. Search for lax.nl.java.option.additional, and append -DRFC_INI=EASPATH\server\saprfc.ini. Save and close the file.
8. Create a new environment variable, RFC_INI, with a value of EASPATH\server\saprfc.ini
9. Copy librfc.dll andsapjcorfc.dll to EASPATH\server\bin. You may need to obtain these files from SAP.
let me know if it works :)

Data extract/convert from SAP system and load to Unix system - Urgent

Hi,
I have a requirement that I need to extract data from SAP and each data field will have some conditions and need to map/Load it to the Legacy Unix system.
there are four kinds of data objects of HR system, need to extract them individually and map those into Unix system.
Can anyone please suggest me step-by-step how to go about it....like
do we need to write a report for that?
do we need to use Function modules? etc.,
How to set mappings of that Data to a file?
How to map that file to Unix system?
Need to run those on daily basis and after first run, only changed data file need to be loaded. how to do this?
thanks
Alankaar
rewarded with the points.

Hi
I can't say this becouse I don't the problem, anyway u have to do it by yourself.
U should create:
- a document where u define the file format: data type, size and name of the field of the unix system;
- a document for the mapping: link between SAP fields and Unix system fields
Based on these document you'll create a structure on the report:
DATA: BEGIN OF STR_UNIX_SYSTEM,
             FIELD1 ...,
             FIELD2 ...,
             FIELDN....,
           END OF STR_UNIX_SYSTEM.
and the code to transfer the data from SAP to legacy:
MOVE: <SAP TABLE>-FIELD TO STR_UNIX_SYSTEM-FIELD1,
So all steps have to be defined in the report before downloading the file.
So I don't know which legacy system you're speaking about, after creating the file the legacy should read it in order to upload the data.
U can create a daily job for that report, if you need to transfer the changed data only you should read the change document table (CDHDR and CDPOS) but I don't know HR so I'm not sure these tables are available for HR.

Using SQL Server 2012 SSIS to Extract Data From SAP

Hi
What is the current best practice for using SQL Server 2012 SSIS to extract data from SAP R3? Please note we are looking for a solution that does not use SAP BW or SAP OHS.
Ideally we would like to build our ETL SSIS process to make a .NET call to an SAP RFC procedure and avoid using web services.
With SS2012 can we use any of these without using SAP BW:
- SAP .NET Connector
- MS ADO .NET
- BizTalk .NET 3.0 Adapter
Thanks and take care,
Shayne

Hi Shayne,
You can use the .NET Framework Data Provider for mySAP Business Suite along with SQL Server Integration Service (SSIS) to import data from an SAP system into SQL Server database tables, flat files, or other compatible destination types. You can create an SSIS
package that can be executed to import data from an SAP system.
You must use the SQL Server Import and Export wizard to import data into the SQL Server database. You must provide a select query to specify data to be imported. The query must confirm to the semantics supported by the Data Provider for SAP. You can start the
SQL Server Import Export Wizard either from the SQL Server Management Studio or from an Integration Service project in Visual Studio. Detail steps please see:
Importing SAP Data Using SQL Server Management Studio:

Extract Data from SAP BW

Hello Experts,
We plan to extract data from SAP BW and load it to SQL server. I went through the guide 'xi32_ds_sap_en' which talks about a few functions that need to be installed in SAP server, these functions are present in 'C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Data Services\Admin\R3_Functions\transport'
1. Do we need to install all 4 scripts in this directory? to extract data from SAP BW
2. our objective is to Extract data from SAP BW using the open hub destination service, is this the best way to read huge volume of data? or are there any good alternative ways.
Thanks

Hi Ranjit,

Different aspect to extract data from SAP retail.

Hi Gurus,
I will working on SAP retail system , including SAP retail/POSDM, please tell me how to extract data from those systems, is it different from the way to extract data from SAP ECC , eg SD/FICO etc?
Many Thanks,

Hello ,
Retail will use Inventory Data Sources, Extraction is same as that of inventory or LO. There are few DS in Retail those use FM, so for those DS it will behave like FI DS.

Help Required -- Can we use SQL Query to READ data from SAP MDM Tables

Hi All,
Please help.........
Can we use SQL Query to READ(No Creation/Updation/Deletion just Read) Data from SAP MDM tables directly, without using MDM Syndicator.
Or direct SQL access to SAP MDM tables is not possible. Only through MDM Syndicator can we export data.
Thanks in Advance
Regards

All the tables you create in Repository comes under A2i_CM_Tables in Database named as your repository name. So the tables names are fields of table A2i_CM_Tables. Now i tried it but cant make it.
Now, I dont think its possible to extract all fields in tables and there values using select query. May be pure sql guy can do that or not.
But there is no relation of data extraction and syndicator. Data is viewed in Data Manager. and you can also store data in a file from DM also.
