Connecting MSSQL as new source system
Dear all,
We want to connect a MSSQL server as a new source system in SAP BW 7.0.
Does anybody has a good "How to..." Paper which helps to connect MSSQL step by step to SAP BW?
Thanks a lot.
Regards
Daniel
Follow the below mentioned steps to create a dbconnect source system.
1. Goto RSA1 -> Source systems. Right click and Create
2. Give some name and description and hit enter
3. a. Con Name : Any name (SQLSRV, etc)
b. DBMS : MSS
c. UserName : Any username which is present in the SQL Server. Eg: SA.
If you have to use Windows Authentication, there is a seperate method :
For windows authentication, you will have to add your Admin login of BI Server to the SQL Server Security logins group (For Eg: If BI Server name is BID and the admin login for this server is BIDADM, you need to add BIDADM to Logins/Users group of SQL Server and also for the specific database).
d. Password : Anything.
e. Con Env : MSSQL_SERVER=<sql server name> MSSQL_DBNAME=<database name> OBJECT_SOURCE= DBO.
For Example:
MSSQL_SERVER=ps14apollo MSSQL_DBNAME=PROJECTSERVER_REPORTING OBJECT_SOURCE=DBO
Here ps14apollo is my SQL Server name. Similarly ProjectServer_Reporting is my database name. DBO should be the Object_Source for most of the SQL Server dbs. I think it should work in your case as well.
f. DB RECO = select or let it remain unselected.
g & h Max Connections & OPT Connections = 0, for unlimited connections.

BW: Connect to new source system via special transport
Hello everyone!
I have a BW system connected to an R/3 source system. I have made a copy of the source system. Now I want all my models to be connected to both source systems. I heard that this can be achieved via special transport (i.e. place all source system dependant objects into a special transport request to be imported back into my BW system, but with the new source system assignment). Does anyone have any documentation on how to do this?
Best Regards and Merry Xmas!
Luís Andrade.Hi Luis,
There are two parts,
1) If you want to transport all your objects from current R/3 system to newly created r/3 system then you can create a TR and use it in SCC4 transaction during client copy. In the same fashion you can use RSA1---> transport connection and use the TR for system copy. After that once you release this TR all the objects will move from one system to another.
2) But if you have already moved all the objects in source system but now you want them to replicate in BI then go to SAP BI system select your source system and then from the context menu choose replicate datsources option, it will fetch everything from respective source system in BI.

Migrate Dataservices source system to new source system type in BW 7.3
Hi All,
We have upgraded our BW system to 7.3. In our old 7.0 environment we have linked Data Services 4.0 as an external source system. Now in BW7.3 we would like to migrate the developments on the old source system to the new source system type.
Does anyone know if there is any migration tool which we can use for this?
Best regards,
F. GeldofHi Valerie,
Unfortunately i didn't find the answer yet. For the moment we have kept the old connection types to our DS environment.
Good luck!

New Source System Client for BW
Hi All,
Currently we have R/3 QAS Clint 102 connected to BW QAS. We want to get rid of this Client 102 and connect a new QAS Client 100 (same server but different Client) to BW QAS. I created a new Source System (QAS100) in BW QAS and did a restore.
My question: How do I get all the Source system dependent Objects like InfoSurces, InfoPackages etc for the new Client 100 in BW QAS? Please help me and I promse to generously reward points.
Thanks, very much in advance.
SriniHi A.H.P,
I am pretty sure this will resolve the issue. I will come back again and reward 10 points once we apply a working solution.
Thank you for a quick reply.

Hello,
Our requirement is to load data from a different R3 client to which we dont have a connection yet.
The idea is to create a new connection but keep the existing one.
Is there any automated tool to do this? We would like to avoid the manual creation of all infosources and transformations from the new source system, but to copy them from the existing one.
We found that there is a tool for replacing the current source system with another one (BDLS), but we just want to create this new one in paralel with the current source.
Thanks!!
PabloHi,
what you can do is, create a transport request containing all source system related things like the infosource/datasource assignment, transfer rules... and import that transport back into your dev system. Before the import you should maintain the settings for source system after transport accordingly.

How to transfer all the transfer structure to new source system ?
Hello

Hi All,
I am trying to create a new source system in BW for the new R/3 client which is a copy of PRD.
So now new R/3 client is 200 and also PRD is 200. I did all necessary steps and i found difficulty when i am assigning logical system based on client. I found key is only client, so as PRD system is already mentioned with client 200 i am not able to create new entries and i hope this causing me error.
So by creating RFC destination directly in SM59 and when i tried to create it says PRD Client already available. Though i have specified new client server name.
Kindly advise.
This is quite urgent.
Thank You.
Best regards,
Bhuvana.hi,
it seems rfc connection between bw and r/3 not established properly, check with transaction sm59 (ask basis help if no authorization), choose r/3 source system rfc and menu test->authorization. check if user name and password, hostname/ip address are correct.
this doc 'bw r/3 connectivity' may useful http://help.sap.com/bp_biv235/BI_EN/BBLibrary/documentation/B84_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_DE.doc
hope this helps. -
Hi
We are trying to connect new Source System to BW. It is ECC 5.0.
When I try to activate the Source System, it generates the following error:
<b>EDI: Partner profile not available
Entry in inbound table not found
Entry in outbound table not found
Entry in outbound table not found</b>
I checked WE20, it looks good. This is very similar to the current R/3 System (4.6). I was able to REPLICATE the DATASOURCE with no issues.
Can you please let me know, how this could be resolved.
Regards,
GPK.Hi Guru's
The OSS note mentioned was a good one. I did check that OSS to ensure we were on track. There was no loop hole i got in regards to this issue.
I cannot say why it worked for me but I could tell what I did.
1. Deleted the source system, I creted.
2. Created the Source System back again.
3. It worked, but the only difference I noted was that, the icon of the source system is like the BW and not like the r/3 icon. I don't know WHY??
Thank you all for your support and advices.

Steps for creating new source system
Hi guys
We are on BI 7 and ECC 6 now...We are planning to get the data from other source systems (R/3 4.6)which are existed in different place.
Now my question is what are the steps to get the data from this new Source system and whats BI developer role for this...
Example: Inorder to establish the connection between BI and R/3 we need an RFC connection (Is this done by BASIS / BI )? If its BI , then what do I need to ask for ?
afterthat what are all the questions or points that I need to raise to the folks in the meeting...
Please advice
regardsHi
refer to this link below
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/ac/4a4e38493e4774e10000009b38f889/frameset.htm
Exactly this will be taken up by BASIS team so that at any time if we have any issues with RFCs like RFC connection failure we will not get any data to our targets.
Then we have to raise ticket to basis stating this failure -
Change Default Background User In BW When Creating New Source System
Hi all,
I would like to create a new Source System in RSA1.
In Source Systems > SAP > Create > Connection of source system to BW
the Default background user in BW is u201CALEREMOTEu201D.
How do I change this to another user?Just want to say thank you. I could fix a problem with your information.
I was searching to change the background user from ALEREMOTE to BWREMOTE as all our process chains were running on ALEREMOTE. -
Connect BW to another Source System
Hello Gurus,
I have a problem. We have to connect a BW Dev System to R3 Dev System, but I want to do some DEMOS to my client so I need to connect the same BW DEV System to another DEV System (IDES). When I finish the DEMO I should connect this BW DEV System to R3 Dev System again.
Somebody knows some procedure to achieve this?
Thanks
GustavoI Think you should create a new Source system, and activate the content again in this new source system (RSA5).
Then you do the demos with the data of the new souce system.
Hope it helps.

Activating transfer rules for new source system
Hi
we are having 2 R/3 source system in BI. I had activated all the transfer rules with the first source system and now i have created a new source sytem connecting to a different R/3 client. I tried to change the transfer rules point to the new source system using the program RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL giving the new source system and the infosource name. But i get the error "No Transfer Structure Selected" when i execute the prg.
how can i change the source system without creating the transfer rules for the new source but use the existing transfer rules and just change the source system assigned to it????
Regards
SujaiHi Sujai,
There are many cases when this program is used.
When the Trans rules get de-activated due to impact,we need to first replicate the data source and activate the TR using this program.This generally occurs during the data loads in prd.
It does not makes sense to transport it when there r no changes done to the TR.So simply,u can use this program to activate.
If the program does not work,then you are left with the transport option.
Thanks & Regards,

Datasources . problem with the new Source System
Hi friends!
The ECC client were copy and now I have a new source system for this.
If I select source system / verify, the msg is: ok
In can read some data from the new ECC (ie: exchange rates updated), but I can not read any records using the datasources.
The replication in Bi were done, and the data in source system is ok.
-> What is wrong?
Thanks!Check the profile parameters in WE20,We21... and also check scc4

Transport InfoSources to New Source System
Hi.
When implementing BW in our QA environment, all InfoSources, and their related InfoPackages, Transfer Rules, Update Rules, etc.) were created using a temporary R3 QAS source system mapping (ex.TMP). We are now removing this temporary client and I now need to change my InfoSources (along with customized Start Routines, InfoPackages, etc.) to point to a new QAS source system (ex. PRM).
Note that this new source system is already identified as a source system for BW and all DataSources created on TMP have been transported to PRM. Subsequently, all DataSources have been replicated from PRM to BW.
However, I'm having trouble on the BW end. I can't easily
transfer the InfoSources, etc. to the new source system. I've asked some BW / Basis folks and they suggest transporting the InfoPackages out-of and then back-into the BW QA client. Is this possible? Is there a better way to push my InfoSources, InfoPackages, etc. from the old source client (TMP) to the new one (PRM)? Thanks!Dear Dave
Please do not attempt to change the logical system name your self, as I feel that you have not tried it before.
This is some thing that your basis people have to do. Depending on the size of database this change can take from 2-24 hours (not exact times, but just some thing to show the magnitude of the task).
Good luck
