Documentation for Restore under Source Systems

Hello,
  Can anyone point me to documentation that tells me what exactly the 'restore' under the source systems under modeling does? We refreshed our R/3 and BW systems simultaneously and now the 0material_text delta does not work. All other deltas are working fine.
Thanks,
Diane Merrill

Have you tried to:
1. replicate the datasource
2. activating infosource with communication structure and transfer rules expanded ?

  • Restoring the source system connection in BW

    Hi all,
    I’ve been trying to upload data for 2 of my infocubes, and the extractions are bouncing. The message in R/3 is told me to check the connection. The RFC are fine.  But when I tried to restore the source system connection (RSA1 in BW), it sent me the following error messages:
    1.-  Basic type ZS 118 does not exist.
    2.-  The following error in the source system:
    3.-  Incorrect IDoc type ZSAB023 in the ALE definition of the source system.
    The description in each error is:
    Error #1:
    Diagnosis                                  
        IDoc type ZS 118 could not be found.   
    System response

    They told me this IDocs are created automatically by the connection. Is that true?
    How can I fix this, so that I can restore my connection and do the data extraction?
    Thanks a lot

  • Transfer rules are not exist for ECC Quality source system in BI Dev

    Hi,
    I Connected BI Dev system To ECC Dev and installed the sales, purchasing,... data flow, but here i am not getting the quality data to show the reports, to get Quality data  I established the connection between BI Dev and ECC QA, while installing the transfer rules for the ECC QA data sources there no transfer rules are exist(only some of them exist) in the business content, but all the update rules,... are exist, when i right on the data source say create transfer rules it is proposing App praposal.
    When i select source system as ECC dev while installing the transfer rules i can see all the transfer rules, but when i select source system as ECC QA i can see only some transfer rules.
    only problem with transfer rules(some of them exist), for remaining all objects are properly existing in business content for ECC QA source system.
    Regards,
    chandra

    Hi Fayzrakhmanov
    Thanks for the quick reply. We are not moving the stuff to QA. We are only connecting QA ECC system to BI Dev. We already have datasources moved to ECC QA and created source system for ECC QA in BI Dev.
    The problem is I am not able to get Business Content transful rule for new source system. We I can find some but not all unlike development.
    Help on this would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • G/L account picked for the "wrong" source system entry

    Dear Experts,
    in SRM 7.0, Classic Scenario, i am facing the following issue with respect to G/L account determination in the SC:
    We have three R/3 systems connected to SRM. All these R/3 systems use the same Material Groups, but the G/L accounts are different in each R/3 system.
    In the Table "Determination of G/L Account using product categories", i have maintained the repsective combinations. For each combination of product category and account assignment category, the respective G/L account is defaultet for the respective source system.
    But in the shopping cart, the determination of the correct G/L does not always work. When a user enters the shopping cart initially with a line item that is accounted to his default account assignment category, than the correct G/L account for his source system is derived. But if he changes the account assignment category of the line item, than a G/L account from a "wrong" source system is getting picked up from the table.
    I have checked the GUIDs of the product categories between "Comm_category" and "bbp_det_account" and they are correct.
    What can be the reason for the picking of the G/L account from the wrong source system?
    Can the note 1357871 bring the correction?
    Thank you very much!

    Hello Dima,
    I think your problem comes from your source system for product category management.
    Could you clarify one point: if you change account assignment category, does new G/L account have to be determined for same backend system too or not ?
    If yes, correct new G/L account will be determined using your customizing (IMG: SAP Implementation Guide > SAP Supplier Relationship Management > SRM Server > Cross-Application Basic Settings > Account Assignment > Define G/L Account for Product Category and Account Assignment Category ).
    If it does not work, log an OSS message.
    If no, you need to switch value for each SC item field BBP_PDIGP-LOGSYS_FI from old backend source system to the new one. For this, use BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI.
    Then, your customized G/L account definition for product category  and account assignment category should be OK.
    Regards.
    Laurent.

  • How to retreive logical name for the OLAP source system

    dear all, i am writing an extractor for a data source and need to fetch the OLAP SOURCE SYSTEM (r3 backend) for it.
    obviously in RSA1, you can see the source system of the data source, however, i have debugged this and could not find the function or class that puts the source system in the field.
    in short i have the data source, and i know i want it to be the active version, so how can i get the olap source system of this ?
    thanks
    glen
    Edited by: gingle on Dec 2, 2008 10:22 PM

    Try tcode SM59.  I am locked out of the transaction at this client, so I can't give you any more details.
    You can also look at the source system in RSA1 ... go to the source systems tab and change it.
    Both of these steps are typically basis steps, so i would advise you to be cautious when doing anything in either of those screens.

  • Can SAP BI (BW) stand alone as a data warehouse for Non-SAP Source Systems.

    I recognize that the answer to this question depends on the version of SAP BW we are discussing. My question is one being posed to determine how SAP BW fits in with the BI world and the other tools available.
    - Can a company implement SAP BI without also having the SAP ERS applications?
    - If so, will SAP BI effectively support 3rd party source systems and what is needed to make it effective (NetWeaver XI, NetWeaver 2004s)?
    Thanks for your expertise.
    Denny

    hi dear,
    clearly the most valuable input given by BW is a native integration with all SAP world...
    well, you can manage a BW without having a SAP ERP as source system:

  • Change a migrated DataSource for DB Connect Source System

    Hi,
    I have created a DataSource for a DB connect Source system with transactioncode RSDBC as follows:
    1. select database TableView
    2. choose Edit DataSource
    3. fill in the field Application Component (default stated NODESNOTCONNECTED)
    4. generate datasource
    Result: the datasource has been created in the right application component. As I want to migrate to BW 7 I have migrated the datasource (with export) and afterwards activated it. Now we need to add more fields to the database TableView. After the fields have been added I want to make these fields also available in the DataSource created before.
    How can I do this ?
    When using transaction code RSDBC I found out that the application component is stated again NODESNOTCONNECTED instead of the application component filled before. Is it possible that changes in the TableView will always lead to create the DataSource all over again (new InfoPackage, new Transformation rules, new DTP).
    Thank you in advance for your help. Kind regards, Minouschka

    Hello,
    We have basically the same problem. An existing data source from a DB-connect client and now need to add a new field but edit mode BW does not provide the ability to add or delete existing fields.
    Were you able to complete this and if so how did you do it?
    Thank you,

  • 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
    regards

    Hi
    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

  • NO PSA for InfoSource and source system 120 : Maintaing Transfer Rules

    Hello BI Experts ,
    I am working on Generic data source extraction.
    Earlier I mapped all fields infoobjects in Transfer Rules and then loaded data to ODS properly.
    But later on I made few changes in Generic data source view and exits in the R3 and replicated the data source to BI.
    Then Remapped the fields to infoobjects in Transfer Rules.
    Now I can see Transfer Rules Green and all fields are mapped properly.
    But when I activated Transfer Rules I am getting message that ,
    "There is no PSA for InfoSource ZPS_DATA_BB and source system 120 "
    Data source is active in R3.
    Communication Structure and Infosource are Active in BI.

  • How do I clone a fully operational system that relies on Windows 7 for the underlying operating system?

    I'm a retired IT professional desiring to assist a friend who owns a small business who recently experienced very malicious attacks on her computers from unknown parties operating anonymously on the Internet. Because
    of her lack of preparation for such events, her future ability to continue to conduct her business was seriously threatened. The incident revealed, to my friend, the need to be prepared to deal with spontaneously occurring problems that create suspicious conditions
    that arise with modern computer software before they can be analyzed in a sufficiently comprehensive manner to have an opinion regarding the appropriate course of action for obtaining a permanent remedy. In that, the ability to quickly react on the basis of
    only suspicion is the goal.
    I want to recommend an approach that involves maintaining an offline image of an operational system that is capable of running any of her computers. This image needs to include all of the software required to run
    her business. In that, it is not limited to the operating system. This single image could then be used to restore any computer to a known reliable state should the need arise. This technique will also insure that each computer has sufficiently similar capability
    to allow them to substitute for each other. Insofar as image restoration is itself an operation susceptible to causing unacceptable business delay I'm also recommending that each of the identical computers (i.e., from a hardware perspective) operate in a multi-boot
    environment where a virtually offline backup can be instantiated via a simple reboot (i.e., an operation that all users of the Windows operating systems turn to when strange behavior is first observed). My intention is to limit the cloned system (i.e., partition
    or C: drive) to the operational software. The business data along with storage for temporary data will be isolated on other partitions (i.e, mounted with other drive letters) accessible by each instance of the software eligible for multi-boot operation.
    This kind of operation is something that I know how to setup on older versions of the Windows operating system. However, Microsoft has now dropped support for all of those operating systems and my much more limited
    experience with the currently supported operating systems reveals that changes to the boot process will necessitate making changes to the specific preparations needed to build such an environment.
    Before recommending that my friend replace all of her computers with new ones, that includes paying for new operating system (i.e., Windows) licenses, I need some assurance that the new operating systems are as
    good as the old ones in this respect. These need to be relatively inexpensive desktop computers and we're only talking about a few of them. Let's say fewer than half a dozen. My friend is a sole proprietor and even though her business has become completely
    dependent on what was once called personal computers she must operate on a fairly tight budget. This especially includes the budget for technology.
    The articles I've been able to find on the Microsoft support websites seem to treat multi-boot as a situation where someone is running different versions of possibly difference operating systems whereas my need
    to produce a single image that will both run on multiple computers as well as multiple partitions on the same computer. I'd appreciate finding some technical advice that applies to building such a system using a supported version of Windows.

    I tried the image creation/restoration described by Jared.  I don't think it makes much sense to rely on an operational system to do such a restoration therefore I opted for method 3 which involves using a "System Repair Disk".  My first
    reaction is what a crude tool.  The image creation process had no trouble putting the image on a simple network share.  However, it appeared as though the restoration couldn't even connect with the device.  I then copied the files to a USB drive. 
    In this case the repair disk said it couldn't find the files even though they were there.  It offered no mechanism to even look and see what was there.  It appears as though it will only find the image if it is located in a folder by the certain
    name used on creation and it is in root directory.  Not very handy.
    As ugly as all that was when we finally come to the point of making the restore it looks like the only option is to restore the entire disk, which in my case would mean also restoring both the windows partition and the recovery partition.  This just
    isn't what I want to do.  It is also something I wouldn't even consider doing unless it was the only possible way to recover from a failed hard drive.
    In summary, unless I've completely failed to notice how it works that just isn't going to work.
    I hope there is something better than this.  What about WinPE and ImageX?
    Absent anything useful from Microsoft it will be necessary to try using other software.  Time to try Acronis!  I guess.

  • Source system restore - Source system does not exist

    Hello friends,
    We have a problem. Now we have a new test system QA2. From BW system source system connection was configured for older test source system QA1.
    We needed to route this source system to new system. I tried with changing RFC of QA1 to QA2 details.
    Now, when i check RSA1 source system Check for QA1, i get this error :
    Port 'A000000103 ' of type 'ALE ' does not exist
    No destination exists to source system QA1
    I can see this source system in RSA1 in BW. However, in WE21 port is not available now.
    Please suggest.
    I do not have to lose transfer rules/PSA tables..etc.
    thanks
    ashish

    I get this when i try to restor connection :
    Source system does not exist
    Message no. RSAR175
    Diagnosis
    You have specified that you want to restore source system QA2. This source system is not known in BI.
    System Response
    The source system is not restored.
    Procedure
    Recreate the source system.
    If the source system should be known to BI, the name of source system QA2 may be incorrect. Rename the source system and try the function again.

  • RSA1 - Source system(R3 - BI) restore issue

    HI Everyone,
    I am trying to restore my source system(R3) from BI from RSA1. iam getting some error.
    Error:
    Source system cannot use any of the proposed connection names
    Message no. RSAR362
    Diagnosis
    Every connection to a source system is named using a unique two-digit identifier. Source system SAPSQ1 does not accept any of the proposed values.
    The last proposed value was BA.
    System Response
    Source system has not been connected.
    Procedure
    If you want to recreate the source system from BI information, then you can only use a single value, namely BA, because the connection already has this name in BI.
    Delete the existing connections in the source system or contact a BI consultant.
    I checked the table RSBASIDOC also. The Target BI logical system is not present. CHecked the partner profile & IDOC Ports also.
    RFC connection is also working fine
    We recently performed R3 system refresh
    please help me resolve this issue since its a critical issue which neds to be resolved immediately
    thanks & Regards,
    Siva

    If you have done system refresh then to restore the connections you have to follow the below note as per your scenario
    Note 886102 - System Landscape Copy for SAP NetWeaver BW
    Only then the connection can be restored

  • Source system activate/restore

    I have created an R/3 source system in BW. Have checked SM59, WE20, WE21 many times and could log on to the source system. Have also replicated the source system. However, when trying to activate or restore the source system I keep getting:
    First, the status message: Update source system application component hierarchy
    Second, RSAR error 375: Result of the destination check: Timeout
    And the activation is terminated.
    My OSS Note 140276 search yielded nothing as well.

    Hi Greg,
    A. In the R/3 source system delete the entry in RSBASIDOC table for the associated BW sytem. This will delete the obsolete BW system connection.
    B. In the associated BW system, RSA1>Source System>Restore will re-establishes the connection for the R/3 source system.
    For more info, refer to OSS note:184322 (it's not relevant for your situation, but should help in restoring the connectivity). Hope it helps,

  • Problem restoring source system connection post BW system copy

    Hi.
    I am having problems restoring the R/3 connection in our BW system.
    This is the scenario.
    We need to move our BW production system onto a new system, but keep both BW connected to R/3 production for testing etc until cutover to our new BW system.
    Basis performed a system copy and restore of BW production to the new system and ran BDLS.
    When I try to restore the R/3 connection via RSA1 I am getting the following error at the end-
    "A connection already exists there ......." and the message refers to our current/live BW system. The options are to delete the existing or not delete. I have only chosen "do not delete" and therefore the connection is not restored. My concern is that if I choose "delete" this will damage my existing connection between R/3 and the currently live BW system which is we cannot afford to do.
    In our newly copied BW system we are using the existing R/3 SM59 (from system copy), and in R/3 we have created a new SM59 for our new BW system.
    It seems from the error message information that is complains that BW sent R/3 some sort of ID (value = "WS") and that is already taken by the existing BW system. I tried to find where and what this WS value is referring to and the only thing I have found is that in table RSBASISIDOC "WS" is the suffix for transfer structure for that R/3 system. ??? Not sure if this is related for what.
    Thanks for any help

    Hi ,
    Please check with basis or if you can ,then try to restore the source system in BI/BW.This should correct the  inconsistencies between the two systems which is being caused by different Idoc types
    Also check the table RSBASIDOC in the BI system and compare this to R/3 system ,the "basic type" field should be same.
    A restore should work,it has always worked for me.
