I want to learn to work on Data warehousing workbench in SAP 6.0. The course fee for it is very high so i am thinking of learning it online. Can anyone guide me how to start and from where to start?
Thanks

Hi,
first enter the t code - RSA1 in bw system - it is the modeling screen.
but in BW 7.0 we are not using the info source it is the optional
we are using the data source.
please fallow the below steps.
I am thinking if your are loading the data through flat file (excel form.CSV)
creating info area
creating info object catalog
creating char and key figures
creating the data source -> info package - once run the info package you will see the data in PSA
after create the DSO and CUBE
then after create the transformations -> it will map the form source to target.
run the DTP -> after running the DTP data move form PSA to CUBE.
if you don't knowledge on SAP BW take the help with your BW friends
hope it will help.
Thanks,
Phani.

What is Web Dashboard Design in Data Warehousing Workbench?

Hi Gurus!
I am tired of trying to find out this since last night. What is this Web Dashboard Design that is available through Data Warehousing Workbench RSA1? Any ideas will be given points. Please urgent!

Jaya your answer is something that I already figured out for Bex but my question was for the WB and not BEx. However I have awarded 6 points for your attention to this question and also your link was very elaborative on the BEx side. Thanks a lot.

DBW70E BI - Delta Enterprise Data Warehousing SAP NetWeaver 2004s

BI Experts,
Does any one happens to have a PDF of DBW70E - BI - Delta Enterprise Data Warehousing SAP NetWeaver 2004s.
Thanks
Ashwin

Hi,
Just to launch the discussion
1) We can still use the old ABAP environment to publish your Web Queries, but only the 3.x ones !
 If you want to switch to BI 7 Queries (or other BI 7 Web components) then you will have to use the SAP Netweaver Portal (call it SAP Portal, SAP Enterprise Portal, SAP Netweaver Portal, BI portal... it still is EP 7.0)
The SAP Netweaver Portal is the runtime environment for all BI 7 Web elements.
2) Yes, you can use Visual Composer (available with the SAP Netweaver Portal....)
Best regards,
Guillaume

What are the uses of diffrent concepts in data warehousing

What are the uses of diffrent concepts in data warehousing? Why?
naveen

Hi,
Your statement is correct. To be crisp, the portal offers a single point of access to SAP and non-SAP information sources, enterprise applications, information repositories, databases and services in and outside your organizationall integrated into a single user experience. It provides you the tools to manage this knowledge, to analyze and interrelate it, and to share and collaborate on the basis of it.
With its role-based content, and personalization features, the portal enables usersfrom employees and customers to partners and suppliersto focus exclusively on data relevant to daily decision-making processes

License server in data transfer workbench

Dear All Experts/Gurus,
I have a problem about log on to data transfer workbench (DTW). I don't understand why I must put numbers in license server field before log on to Data transfer workbench ? In the license server field of license administration form, I've seen the license server is words for example jimmymc, then beside it 40000.
I log on DTW, I fill jimmymc in the license server field but I've got error message:
"connection to jimmymc has failed. Error code 100000001. Connection with license server failed"
I don't understand why it succeeds if I fill numbers for example 130.1.2.5:40000, it works successful. What actually the function of license server field ? why could it be different with license server in the license administration form ?
I apreciate your answer. TIA
Rgds,

Jimmy,
The net-net is that ... the way you log into the DTW as of the 2005A version is different becasue the overall licensing mechanism used by SAP Business One for 2005 changed from what was used in version 2004. The licensing mechanism now uses CORBA. This allows connection without having to have an IP Address, but you can still use one as you have seen. When you install the License Server for Business One, the default connection "port" used and is defaulted to in the License Server is 30000 ... although you can change this to any port not being used. Again ... the net-net is that is how it works and that is what is now required for connection or use the IP.

Tranform templateu00B4s Excel files into *.txt for Data Transfer Workbench

I have some problems transforming the data files to import since Data Transfer Workbench.
I haven't the extructure of de Excel templates of SAP BO.
What is more important: I'm transforming the data with Access consults, and I use Access for convert the Excel to *.txt files. So, somebody could tell me another way to do this?

Hello,
You can have the structure of all DTW templates in C:\Program Files\SAP\Data Transfer Workbench\Templates.
They are in csv format, but I think this is more easy to save them in txt format (with tab), because you will be able to use "," in the numbers easily.
For more help on how to fill the templates, you can have a look at DI API help (in the SDK folder). You will find the explanation of every column of your templates.

Data migration Tally to SAP B1

Hi Friends
I need a information about data migration from tally to sap business one.
can anybody guide me how to do ?

Hi Kamlesh,
AFAIK, there's no standar tool released by SAP to do the data migration from Tally directly. The possible is export the legacy data to MS Excel, format into DTW format, and import into Business One via DTW.
DTW - Data Transfer Workbench.
I don't know if any partner has developed add-on for this purpose.

Regarding Migrating data from Legacy to SAP

Hi All,
We are in Migration Project. We have to upload data from legacy to SAP, either using BDC or Cross-Applications in the following SD scenario's.
1. Customer Master
2. Inquiries
3. Quotations
4. Proposals
5. Sales Order
6. Goods Issue
I would like to know, which concept is better for each of the above scenario. Each option have advantages and disadvantages. So, I need suggestion regarding this.
Regards,
Sathya.

hi
LSMW and BDC are vastly different.
BDC (Batch Data Communication) is a technology used for data transfer. it is meant for transferring data thru SAP transactions itself. when u use BDC for data transfer, the sequence of steps is the same as when u use standard sap transaction screens for data upload. the only difference is that u can use different options for foreground/backgrou nd processing.
LSMW on the other hand is a tool that helps migrate data from a legacy system (non-sap system ) to SAP system. it offers u various options to use either batch input, direct input, BAPIs or idocs. it involves a series of some 17-18 steps to migrate data.
BDC:
Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.
Features :
BDC is an automatic procedure.
This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is available in electronic medium.
BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.
Types of BDC :
CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
CALL TRANSACTION
BATCH INPUT METHOD:
This method is also called as CLASSICAL METHOD.
Features:
Asynchronous processing.
Synchronous Processing in database update.
Transfer data for more than one transaction.
Batch input processing log will be generated.
During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
Features:
Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
Transfer data for a single transaction.
Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
No batch input processing log is generated.
LSMW:
The LSM Workbench is an R/3-based tool that supports You when transferring data from non-SAP systems ("Legacy Systems") to R/3 once or periodically.
The tool supports conversion of data of the legacy system in a convenient way. The data can then be imported into the R/3 system via batch input, direct input, BAPIs or IDocs.
Furthermore, the LSM Workbench provides a recording function that allows to generate a "data migration object" in an entry or change transaction.
The main advantages of the LSM Workbench:
Part of R/3 and thus independent of individual platforms
A variety of technical possibilities of data conversion:
Data consistency due to standard import techniques:
Batch input
Direct input
BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces)
IDocs (Intermediate Documents)
The import technique to be used in an individual case depends on the business object.
Generation of the conversion program on the basis of defined rules
Clear interactive process guide
Interface for data in spreadsheet format
Creation of data migration objects on the basis of recorded transactions
Charge-free for SAP customers and SAP partners

Data warehousing VS database

pls help me in knowing the differences between database and data warehousing in detail
send me links and PDF if u have
thanks

Hi Ranjith,
A data warehouse is, primarily, a record of an enterprise's past transactional and operational information, stored in a database designed to favour efficient data analysis and reporting (especially OLAP). Data warehousing is not meant for current, "live" data.
A database is a collection of information stored in a computer in a systematic way, such that a computer program can consult it to answer questions. The software used to manage and query a database is known as a database management system (DBMS). The properties of database systems are studied in information science.
[http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/D/data_warehouse.html]
BW is an analytical tool where reports from various module of business can be handled easily and very faster .
ABAP reports will make burden on OLTP server.
BW data is designed for reports.

Round values using data transfer workbench

Hi,
I'm using data transfer workbench to migrate some data, and some values are being rounded wich generates errors in the system.
Can sombedoy please help me with this issue? i'm using sap business one 2005 patch 18.
Thanks a lot

Angie did you created the template using EXCEL?
When you edit templates with MS EXCEL you must make sure that the cell properties are properly configure, because if the cell is configure as a number with no decimal it will round the number, the same goes when the cell is a string, if a cell has a comma it will include double quotes when it saves the excel file.

I see now. I changed my call from
BrowserLauncher().openURLinBrowser("http://www.google.com");to
new BrowserLauncher().openURLinBrowser("http://www.google.com");And the earlier error message is now replaced with this one:

BUILD FAILED (total time: 0 seconds)I am fairly sure I am using the proper import statement as another help article here used the same call:

}I'm trying to read documentation on Exception handing from
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/exceptions/index.html
but it's rather a tough tutorial and I'm not quite sure how to go about it.
Any other ideas? Thanks again.
