Edited by: Jini Jayan on Jun 11, 2008 11:36 AM

Step 1. Select Source systems under Modelling in the left panel. In the right panel, right-click Source systems and select Createu2026.
Step 2. Select the FileSystem, manual meta data, data using file inte option, and then click to continue.
Step 3. Enter a name and a description for the source system, and then click to create the source system.
Now create an application component
Step 1. Select InfoSources under Modelling in the left panel. In the right panel, right-click InfoSources and select Create application componentu2026.
Step 2. Enter a name and a description for the application component, and then click to continue. (BW automatically adds a prefix of "Z" to the technical names of application components, unlike the naming system used for other BW objects.If u give the name as AC_DEMO it will be saved as ZAC_DEMO in the system.
Now create infosource
Step 1.Select InfoSources under Modelling in the left panel. Right-click the newly created Application Component , and then select Create InfoSourceu2026.
Step 2. Select the option Master data/texts/hierarchies, and then click to continue.
Step 3. Enter your infoobject name, and then click to continue.
Now you will be asked
Infosource(name) assigned to Appln component(name)?
Click continue
Now go back to workbench and see the Infoobject listed under the Application component name (under Infosource)
Right click the infoobject name and select Assign Datasource
Enter the Infoobject name as Infosource name and the source system name and continue
Now you ll get datasource assignment confirmations for Infosource_ATTR and Infosource_TEXT for master data and text.
Click yes and continue
Now you ll be taken to the Infosource(master data) change screen
Source system name will be given
Below that u need to give the datasource name u2026.._ATTR
Click Activate.
Now Click the tab transfer rules
Copy the communication str infoobject names to an excel sheet
For ex if your infoobj are IO_MATNUM and IO_MATNAME (material number and material name) copy and paste as
IO_MATNUM      IO_MATNAME
MAT001     TEA
MAT002     COFFEE
MAT003     SUGAR
GIVE YOUR DATA IN THE EXCEL. AND CLICK File Save As CSV(comma delimited) and save to ur system. Give file name as something like infosourcename_ATTR.csv
Now back to the Infosourcechange screen
Source system name will be given
Below that u need to give the datasource name u2026.._TEXT
And activate
Now Click the tab transfer rules
Copy the communication str infoobject names to an excel sheet
GIVE YOUR DATA IN THE EXCEL. AND CLICK File Save As CSV(comma delimited) and save to ur system. Give file name as something like infosourcename_TEXT.csv
Now create Infoobject to load data
Go to Infosourceu2014Appln Componentu2014InfoObju2014SourceSystemu2014rightclick->create Infopackage
Step 2. Select the DataSource Material number (Master data), enter a description for the InfoPackage, and then click to continue.
Give infopackage description as Infopackage:InfoObj_ATTR
Now take care to select the first item in datasource and click continue
In the next screen click external data tab
Click client workstation
Datafileu2026.file name (browse to give the file u saved in ur system)
There will be an option to remove header data from file.remove 1 row.
File typeu2014csv file
Now click schedule tabu2014start dataload immediatelyu2014start.
In the same way
Go to Infosourceu2014Appln Componentu2014InfoObju2014SourceSystemu2014rightclick->create Infopackage
Step 2. Select the DataSource Material number (text)enter a description for the InfoPackage, and then click to continue.

How to Create an R/3 source system and load data from there

Hello All,
Till now I have only worked with Flat files. I want to create an R/3 source system and extract data from there on to my Info Providers.
Does anyone has detailed steps for that. I am using BW 3.5 system
Thanks n Regards,
Abhishek

1. Type Transaction WE30. Check iDoc types
2. Type Transaction SM59. Maintain RFC destinations
a.) Open the RFC Destinations. b.) Find your Source System and double click on it. c.) Technical setting should contain information regarding yoursource system d.) Logon Information should contain source system client and name & password for you remote logon. We use RFC_SAB for BW logon to R/3 and RFC_AAE for R/3 logon to BW. Password for both is always xxxxxxx. e.) Execute your 'Test Connection' & 'Remote Logon'. You should NOT be prompted for a password, if you are then the logon info is incorrect. f.) Repeat above to verify RFCs for other systems (CRM etc)
3. Type Transaction WE21. iDoc Processing Ports.
a.) Select 'Ports' and then 'Transactional RFC'. b.) Click on the Port # for you source system. c.) Verify description & SAP R/3 version.(BW 2.1C should be release 4.x) d.) RFC Destination should be one created in SM59. If non-existent then create one
4. Type Transaction SE16. Data browser (for R/3  BW Connections)
5. Type Transaction SM30. Msg Types & Assignment to iDocs
Enter 'EDIMSG' in the Table/View field. Click on the 'Enter Conditions' option for Restrict Data Range. Click 'Maintain'. Select Message Type. Then enter 'RSSEND' in "From' field. Verify that the Basic Type matches what is in your RSBASIDOCtable for each of your connections. If any are missing any entries you must create them as follows: Create another session and type Transaction WE30. Enter IDoc Type (ZSBAXXX) in Obj. Name field (Suggestion: Start new type with 'ZS' + Transfer Structure Prefix + (3)#'s) Select Create. Select "Create from Copy'. Enter 'RSSEND" in 'Copy From' field Enter Description (i.e. IDoc Type for BW Development) Execute (Green Check). Repeat for other missingentries.
6. Go to the SM30 main screen. Clients Overview
Enter 'T000' in the Table/View field. Click 'Maintain'. Verify correct Client and Description. If incorrect enter.
8. On BW Type Transaction WE20. Partner Profiles
9. On R/3 Type Transaction WE20. Partner Profiles
10. Check all is correct

Problems Creating R/3 46c Source System in BW3.50

Hello.
Does anyone know if there is a way around opening up your R/3 system when creating it as a Source System in BW? I have no problems when creating the Source System in DEV, but when I attempt to create it in QAS and PRD, I get the message "Changes to Repository or cross-client Customizing are not permitted". Also, short dumps for ALEREMOTE "Dynpro Send In Background" occur in the R/3 system after each attempt.
If there is no way around this, I guess we will just open the systems up to these type of changes and then lock them back down afterwards, but I am hoping there are alternatives.
Thanks for the help.

Hi Mike,
You must open the system for changes, there is no way around this. This is usually not a major issue but if the security people are concerned, you can open a trace on the admin user in the OLTP source system.
I have been involved in cases where the security guys had to open the system and watch the source system creation - not sure they learnt anything but they signed off on it!
Cheers,
Mike.

Error : Modification not possible- while creating source system in BI7

Hi BI Guru's,
We are using BI7 and source system ECC6 ,We are about to move to production, When creating the source system in BI PRD system we getting the Error Modification not possible.we created RFC connection, background user and remote connection works fine.
Is there any body put some light on this issue
thanks in advance,
Regards,
Mohan

Mohan,
Check if your logical systems are in place in SCC4 and also in the transport connection.
Also check if you are connecting to the source system by IP Address or by logical name.
Accordingly you would have to maintain the source system connections.

Link between SAP BW and SAP R/3 (Source System)

Dear all,
I want to create a source system connecting BW to Sap R/3.
I have, I think, correctly fill the different fields.
But I have an issue regarding activation of this source system.
I can not activate the source system, I have the following error message : Result of the destination check: Client 602 is not available. Please choose an existing client RSAR 375.
Is there someone who could help me to resolve this issue.
Best Regards,
Gregory

Seems that client 602 does not exist.
Are you sure that client 602 exist in R/3 system?
If it does then check if you are pointing to the right R/3 system, otherwise provide a valid client number.
Hope it helps,
Andreu

Error when creating transfer structure in source system

We have just had a copy of the ERP production system done and connected it to our existing QA system (done by our service providers) for a test go-live of our ERP upgrade.
Now I cannot activate the transfer rules as the transfer structure cannot be created in the source system.
I have checked the settings in table RSBASIDOC and they look okay, I can only assume that our wonderful basis people have done everything they should have but cannot be sure they've done it all correctly.
The sourcesystem is active, the RFC's are fine.
And help for a desperate man please. I've got to get this working in 1 day as basis need the system back to do an Oracle upgrade.

Hi Jonathan,
Try to replicate the DS once again and the run the program RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL to activate your transfer structure. Hope it helps.
Thanks and Regards

How to create DataSource for BI Source System in RSA1?

I have a BI Source System defined, however I can't figure out a way to create a new DataSource for it. I can create DataSource objects for all my other Source Systems, but I can't figure out how to do this for this BI system.
I select my BI Source System, right-click, choose "Display DataSource tree". When I right-click from the DataSource tree, I expect to get "Create Application Component" and "Create DataSource" options, but instead I only see "Replicate Tree Metadata" and "Replicate DataSources" options.
How can I create DataSource objects for my BI system?

Hi,
I guess you want to create a custom developed source in BI itself. For that you need to create the data source in RSO2 and inside you need to give the specific aplication component under which you want this DS to be in. Generate a data souce and then go to BI My self Source system and then replicate that particular appl component o view your data source.
Hope this helps

Srini

Re: Create new R/3 Source Systems

Hi Gurus,
In my current project implementation configuration moved to production. Almost ready to Go Live. Then the requirement change and data need to be pulled from a new R/3 client.
The Source system is not created in BI Devlopment client. I created RFC connection.
Trying to create a new source system. Give required parameters. The connection was not successful.
These are the parameters
Background unser in the source system : ALEREMOTE
Background user in BW : ALEREMOTE
Is this set up correct?
What would be the password to be given for the:
Background user in the source system
Password for BW user
Kindly advise.
Thanks

Sapuser,
You should give the ALEREMOTE user password for bg user in teh source system. This is because the user may not have the background job execution authorization.

Question Related to Source System of BI7 Technical Content

Hi Experts,
I activated BI7 Technical contents using SPRO Transaction.
Activation is successfull.
My question is that I could now find two source systems for
each activated Datasource of Technical Content(One BI self source system and another R3 source system).Is that right?
I thought that BI statistics wil be based on only BI as a
source system.
Please help me in this.
Thanks,
Senoy
Edited by: senoy laxman on Aug 19, 2008 3:29 PM

This is because, before actiavtion of technical content, those TWO source systems were already assigned (Check Boxes 'ON')...under
RSA1 --> Business Content --> 'EDIT" menu --> Source System Assignment --> see those check boxes 'ON' for BI self source system and R3 source system.
U r right..BI statistics wil be based on only BI as a source system.

How to create Source Systems in BI or RFC ??

Hi Gurus,
I want to load data from an R/3 connection to BI.
Now i have modified my Datasources in R/3 side.
Question is how i connect R/3 to BI ?
I will have to create RFC Connection , Yes ?
I did following steps , so far, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO ???
1 To call the RFC we have to create destination.
Means Source system and Target system.
Source System: From where we are calling the RFC i.e. Source system. = R/3
Target System: To where it is calling i.e. Target system. = BI
2. In Source System, create DESTINATION
Goto SM59 to Create a RFC Destination.
3. In SM59 First screen you will get list of RFC Destions
Select R/3 Connections and Click on list(+)symbol it will gives already created Destions, Select R/3 Connections click on Create buttion, it will takes you into another screen to create Destionation.
Name, Password, Logon details.
once it is saved you can test it. Click on Test Connection Button
if it is executed successfully your destinatio is established
NOW WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO IN BI SIDE ????
i went to RSA1 -> source systems
Here i dont see my R/3 in source systems...
please give me step by step instructions.
