Duplicating the existing sourcesystem assignments to a new source-system

Hi all
We have another new sourcesystem (logical system) in our BI system.
This is a copy of the productive erp-sytsem, upgraded to EHP4.
Now we want to test the connectivities and data load procedures.
Is there a possibility to "copy" all the existing datasources/transformations of an existing system
to this new system without using transports?
We already tried using report 'RBDLSMAP' but it seems to overwrite the existing assignments.
Any idea??
Thanks
Thomas

Hello Thomas,
You have to use a transport , to transport the source system dependent objects normally the following procedure is used:
RSA1
Transport Connection
Button 'Collection mode'  set to 'start manual collection'
Press 'Source system assignment' button (it's the one left of the
'Request BEx' button)
Select the source systems you want to save the transfer rules for
Continue
Button 'Grouping' set to 'Save for system copy'
At the left border click on 'Object Types'
Extend tree  'Source system' LSYS
Double click on 'Select objects'
Select the source systems you want to collect objects for
the source system is now displayed in the right box
Press collecting button ('gather dependent objects')
this may take a while
Right click on the root of the tree and select
Transport all below
Expand the whole tree and check if there isn't an object which is locked
by an other open transport request !!
(the column 'Transport request' has to be empty (BEFORE deleting the corresponding source system
connection!)
Kind Regards,
Des

  • 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

  • Add new source system to BI

    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!!
    Pablo

    Hi,
    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.

  • New source system - same BI system - time estimate

    Hello,
    The project management of my current project has decided to create a new ECC QA system as copy from existing ECC QA with no data. The BI QA system will remain as it is.
    How much work will this create for us in order to re-map the transfer structures in BI to the new system. Will I be able to use the same info sources (off course with new source system)? Any more work needs to be done?
    We have about 8 info cubes including stock, sales, purchasing, PCA, loading data via 15 info sources + all masterdata..
    Is this a quick and easy fix or a time consuming task?
    Regards,
    F C

    Hello,
    Yes, I agree. Just needed a second opinion! Thanks! This is a fresh installation so the amounts of data are quite small..
    It should be possible to use the same info sources with some modification on source system and that's it.
    Agree?

  • 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

  • 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
    Sujai

    Hi 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,

  • 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. Geldof

    Hi 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!

  • 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

  • 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.
    Regards,
    Durgesh.

  • 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.

  • Creating New Source System

    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.

    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.

    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.
    Regards,
