Business content extraction

hello gurus
i have a problem with business content extractor 0fi_gl_10. i have activated the extractor and trasfered. and then build a cube and transfered the data. now requirement is like that i have to append the structure and extract those feilds data to cube. i appended the structure in rsa6 and in extract structure i can see the data of those two feilds where as i couldn't see the feilds in my trasfer structure. may i know where i went wrong. ( i replicated the data source in bw source system still i can't see the feilds) may i know what is the problem how to approch .

Hello Rad,
Sorry, but have you transferred the field from the right hand side to left hand side in the datasource/transfer structure tab in the infosource & and also added it in the communication structure.
then you need to go ahead and maintain the transfer rules in the transfer rules tab.
Please let us know.
Hope it helps..
thanks,

Hi Dear Friends
When we go for Business content extraction and when we go for LO/COPA etc.extractions
Thanks
Learner

Hi,
It depends on the KPI you are extracting for,if Business Content Extractor provides you with those then there is no need for generic extractors.
In CO-PA the KPI for profitability differs from client to client.You have Business Content for CO-PA also...

Need info on CRM Business Content extraction

I'm working on extraction of Standad CRM Objects for reporting Telecom KPI's etc...plz help me with the best way forward.

Hi Nishant the link below summarizes your concer..
http://help.sap.com/bp_biv335/BI_EN/index.htm
Further look if the Business COntent are standard SAP business contents, then simply form an RFC connection between the BW(R/3) Server and CRM server.
Transport the objects to CRM Bus Content repository and then activate them for use as required for Object modelling.
You can form Telecom KPI based standard reports like Churn,Profitability etc from such objects..
Further refer to following links..

Bussiness content extraction

HI Frnds,
Iam new to BW as well as new to this forum.
could any one give an idea on what is Bussiness content extration?In which scenario we go for this extraction.
any help is appreciated...
Praveen

Hi,
BW Extraction
we have two types of extractions 1) Application specific 2)cross application
under applicatin specific -->we have customer genenrated and business content extractions
under customer generated means LIS, CO-PA, FI-SL(i.e no ready made data source in business content so we have to generate datasource)
Business content means there is ready made business content datasource so we can use it
LIS,LO --> when ever we go for extracting logistics informatin
CO-PA--> for financial info
under cross Applicaion
Generic extraction-->table, view, infoset query, function module
Generic extractors are of 3 types:
1. Based on table/view
2. Based on Infoset Query
3. Based on Function module
The first 2 are straight forward extraction.
The basic difference between LO and FI is:
LO extraction works based on Update Tables where as FI extraction works based on Timestamp table.
Business Content
You can check your standaed objects in RSA1 > BI content tab in left hand side.
Find your standard object and install it.

goto rsa5 in R/3 -- select 0FI_AP_4 and click install...if you goto RSA6 and see this datasource there then it means it is installed..
now come to B/W ...goto source system...right click on source system and replicate datasource...
on the left side you would..modeling...transport organizer etc... goto business content tab...
goto grouping and it should be set at 'Only necessary objects'.
click on object type on the left side...and it will see..goto Infocube ...select the one which i mentioned below..select it and drag to the right side..similarly do this for ODS, infosource, UR, TR...and click install you should be set...

BUSINESS CONTENT AND LO EXTRACTION

Hi ,
Please tell me
1) what is the main difference between BI content and LO extraction.
2) What happens when we install business content and what happens when we do LO extraction.why are we doing this extraction.?
3) Which process must be done first.
and LO is for logistics extraction i.e. SD,MM etc.(please correct if i am wrong)
4) what about extraction with respect to finance is there anything like LO extraction for finance also?
please explain in simple english.
regards
lap.

well,
I think you don't have to care too much about what did the R/3 consultant; of course what they have configured will be reflected in BW. The configuration impacts on how the data is populated and if your business objects are populated in R/3. It may or may not fit with the business requirement and sometimes it gets complicated to represent the data in BW.
But that's why we have the business content.
So you activate BC objects you need to report on in BW. LO datasources and extractors will be part of this activation. Then you connect both systems and extract this data. You'll have to check with your business req if your extraction reflects the R3 data as wanted by definition.
I a fresh server, you will then just customize and implement all the workbench necessary (IObjs, Cubes, ODS, transformations....). if your system is empty then you won't data to check! But you'll move your developpment to a BW QA or PROD sys which will be connected to a client in R3 having data (otherwise your SD consultants wouldn't be able to test either...)
Replication: when a DataSource has been changed in the source system (R3), the BW receiving structure has to be adjusted. this is done via the replication procedure.
The source system keeps a timestamp of when the DataSource has been reactivated the last time. BW has also this timestamp in its DataSource. When you change your DS in R3, the timestamp will be updated. If you request now data in BW from this DS, the system will complain because both DS (in BW and in R3) have different timestamps. That's why you have to replicate prior loading.
The replication may inactivate follow up objects like extract structure, transfer structure and TRules.
hope that helps...

Finding fields in R/3 for data extraction VS Business content

Hi all,
I am doing my first BW project after my training and I am finding it difficult to locate some fields that should be part of my report.
The Consultant says Sales Group, Inco terms, Open orders, Account assignment group, Sold to party, ship to party, Payment terms, Document currency and base currency, Complete deliver indicator, Order type and Count of Complete deliveries required should all be in the Order while transmission type and number of transmissions should be in NAST.
I have gone to R/3 - RSA6 to look at datasources and found 2LIS_01_S260 (Sales order) to have most of the fields but not payment terms, complete delivery indicator, open orders base currency and count of complete deliveries required. Also in Sales document header data, these fileds are not there.
Is it a case of not understanding the correct name of the fields if they are described in a different manner in R/3 or I have not done the proper thing? Can I just use an infocube in BW business content to get all the required objetcs -(infocube, infosource, datasource).
Thank you

Hi,
Finding the correct Infoobject and it's mapped field is a job of BIW consultant. But the problem is how to find them and how to frind respective R/3 field and it's table. You will be familar with them as your experience increases.
So you need to list of fields you require and then find out the Datasource/s which can give these fields by going through the Business content help or using LBWE Tcode in R/3.
The datasource you mentioned is obsolate one. i.e 2LIS_01_S260 .
You better to go wtih new DSes like 2LIS_11_VAITM,2LIS_11_V_ITM.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_bw31/helpdata/en/8f/36f338472b420de10000000a114084/frameset.htm
If allmost all fields are avialable in a DS , then you can check the possibility of enhancing the DS for remaining Fields.
With rgds,

Business content datasource enhancement

Hi Experts,
I am new to HR.
We are implementing HR modules Personnel development and Personnel administration, while I was looking into business content extractors 0HR_PA_0 and OHR_PA_1, I found that there were only few fields in the extract structure but there were many fields in the cube.Do we need to enhance the datasources? how it works?. If anybody did the enhancement to these datasources, please give me the information with examples.
Anita

No, it is no necesary to enhance standard data sources. Those datasources extract, basically employee and date. Most infoobjects in cube are calculated from 0PERSON and 0EMPLOYEE attributes, having in count the date and employed extracted, because most in HR is time dependent.

DataSources
New DataSources have been created for NW 2004s BI Content Add-On 2 and SRM 5.0. These are described here, along with their extraction logic.
The following graphic shows the data flow from the DataSources to the DataStore objects
Structure
Each DataSource has an extraction structure and a data extractor. Generally, this is an RFC-capable function module.
There are two types of extraction: Specific extraction and generic extraction:
Specific extraction is strongly oriented towards the data model of the BI System and the necessary extract structure. It executes DataSource-specific processing steps.
The logic contained within the generic extraction is implemented centrally and can therefore be reused by the specific extraction modules. The generic extraction deals with access to the SRM database and is similar for each DataSource.
Generic and specific extraction
Extraction logic in detail
Data extraction involves the following six function modules:
InitLoad
InitLoad is called as soon as an initial upload is started in the BI System. In other words, it is executed when data is loaded into the BI System for the first time. The module can restrict the data extraction according to filter criteria that were defined in BI during extraction (for example, extract the data for a particular timeframe). InitLoad packages the data before it is transferred to the BI System.
DeltaLoad
DeltaLoad is called when a document is modified in the SRM System. The module writes data that has accumulated since the initial loading to a delta queue.
Data Collector
The Collector reads the required data from the database in the source system. For performance reasons, the data is then buffered in system-internal tables. The tables have the same structure as in the database. This saves time and effort, because data conversion is kept to a minimum.
Data Consolidator
The Consolidator groups data that belongs together from a business point of view. The consolidated data is stored in internal tables and is prepared for further processing.
Data Normalizer
The Denormalizer prepares the source data for the BI System. It calculates key figures that are required for the report but are not contained on the database and converts data types in the source system to data types of the BI System. Depending on the BI data model, the system now decides how each row is filled with data.
Data Mapper
During mapping of the data, the system defines which fields of the denormalized data structure are assigned to the fields of the extract structure. In this way, flat and one-dimensional lines are generated from the data.
The following table shows the technical names of the function modules of the individual DataSources:
Description
0SRM_TD_PO
0SRM_TD_CF
0SRM_TD_IV
0SRM_TD_PO_ACC
InitLoad
BBP_BI_PO_EXTRACT
BBP_BI_CF_EXTRACT

Business Content for Bill Up transaction in CRM system

To all Experts,
I'm currently working on a project that requires Bill Up transactional data ( Source Table: CMSD_BU ) to flow from CRM to BW system. I'm looking for Business Content that can fulfill this requirement. However, till to date, I couldn't find any information of such Business Content. I'm not sure if such BC exist. Can anyone help if you have experience implement this data flow?
When searching for the DataSource / Extractor, I found BW Extract Structure CMST_BU_BW and CMST_BU_BW_C in the CRM system. But couldn't find any DataSource for both extract structure. Not sure if we need to install any support pack in order make the BC available in the system. Please help if you have any idea.
Thanks in advance.

Error while loading external data using Business Content

Hi,
I am new to BW and I'm stuck up with this problem.
I'm trying to load data from external file using business content cube(0PUR_C01)and infosources(2LIS_02_ITM/S012/SCL).
I first installed the above mentioned cube and data sources.
Then I activated the update rules and transfer rules, without any changes.(I don't know what changes might be required!)
Monitor is showing successful load but the cube has 0 enteries.
Even the simulation of update is showing data in the data target.
Can someone please guide me through this ?
Its really urgent....
Thank you all in advance.

Hi anitha
TRy this
To transfer and activate a DataSource delivered by SAP with Business Content, in transaction SBIW in the source system choose Business Information Warehouse à Business Content DataSources or Activating SAP Business Content àTransfer Business Content DataSources.
The following figure displays the DataSources in an overview according to the application component.
       2.      Select the nodes in the application component hierarchy for which you want to transfer DataSources into the active version. Do so by positioning the cursor on the node and choosing Highlight Subtree.
The DataSources lying under the subtree and other subtrees are selected.
       3.      To check for differences between the active and delivery versions of the DataSources, choose Select Delta.
DataSources for which differences were found in the check (for example, due to changes to the extractor) are highlighted in yellow.
       4.      To analyze the differences between active and delivered versions of a particular DataSource, select the DataSource and choose Version Comparison. The application log contains further information regarding the version comparison.
       5.      To transfer a DataSource from the delivery version into the active version, select it in the overview tree using the button Highlight Subtree and choose Transfer DataSources.
If an error occurs, the error log appears.
Regardless of whether data has been successfully transferred into the active version, you can call the log by choosing Display Log.
       6.      To provide the active version of the DataSource in the connected BI systems and to enable data extraction and transfer, replicate the DataSource(s) with a metadata upload to the BI system.
and in RSA1 in businuess content search ur required cube and select all the req fielsds in the next colums and select before and after is a must..in the selection field..
this will solve ur issue..

FI AR Business Content

Hi Gurus
Our Project will be having a requirements of using FI-AR BW 3.5 objects. Also there is a forthcoming BI 7.0 upgrade project. Can you provide me some details/materials on the effects of BI 7.0 upgrade from BW 3.5 in the FI-AR (e.g. 0FI_AR_4 infosources) Business Content objects (Cubes, ODS's, InfoObjects, InfoSources/DataSources)? e.g. in terms of plug-ins, transformation, delta/extraction method and etc...
Also has anyone work on 'Account Receivables: Days Agreed / Days Taken' query? If yes, can you provide me materials on specifications on that because the specifications on the help.sap.com are not complete.
Thanks,
Raymond

0FI_AR* and 0FI_AP* all are dependent on FI_GL in BW3.5
In Bi 7.0 all are independent.
However when FI_GL*( general ledger) extractor is used a dependency is created between AR GL and AP datasources to maintain consistency
