Hi All,

From SAP R/3

From SAP BW

3)     Select appropriate modules (e.g. BW DataSources ->SAP Application Components-> Sales and Distribution for SD)
4)     Right click and select Replicate DataSources
Error message or few windows confusion:

Hi Singh
1. In RSO2, custom datasource is created. For doing so, you need to specify the table or view on which your datassouce would depend. If its Function module based datasource, then you would need to create a structure and mention it there,
2. In SE11, a view or a structure can be created, as per the need. A view is a combination of tables as you might want multiple fields acros base tables in your datasource.
3. For example, if you are creating a asset master datasource, you might create views on ANLA and ANLZ which are base tables.
4. A package is a collection object which collects all devlopment objects. You would need this to transports requests into target systems. Right now you would be in development phase. When you want all your objects in Test and Production systes, you would need to transport these requests which ultimately get assigned to one package.
To create a package, go to se80 and create one.
YOu seem to be totally new to SAP and BW. All d best!
And remember, assigning points is a way of saying thanks on SDN!!
