Extracting Data from SAP ERP using BODI/Data Services 4.0

HI,
I am trying to extract data from SAP ERP via SAP extractors using BODI/Data Services 4.0.
I do not have my own ERP system so I am renting remote access from one of the many available on the internet.
I am able to connect BODI to the ERP system and import the extractors metadata.
The problem I am experiencing is that when I run job to extract the data I get the following error:
Vendor-supplied function module <Z_AW_RFC_READ_EXTRACTOR> not found. Ensure that you can execute the function module in SAP via transaction /nSE37.
How do I create the function? Or is the function a SAP standard function?
SAP ERP system being used is: ECC6 EHP4
User has SAP FULL and DEVELOPER authorizations.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

  • How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?

    How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?
    For eg:
    data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
    select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
                                                      and bdatu = '31129999'.
    thanks.

    Hi Ramesh,
    Specify the date format as YYYYMMDD in where condition.
    Dates are internally stored in SAP as YYYYMMDD only.
    Change your date format in WHERE condition as follows.
    data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
    select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
    and bdatu = <b>'99991231'.</b>
    I doubt check your data base table EQUK on this date for the existince of data.
    Otherwise, just change the conidition on BDATU like below to see all entries prior to this date.
    data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
    select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
    and <b> bdatu <= '99991231'.</b>

  • Acquiring sales data from SAP ERP

    (While evaluating Lumira, after watching promoclips, reading papers and working with the free trial some questions are still unanswered. I kindly ask you for help… Supporting a clear structure, I decided to open a separate thread for each question.)
    How’s about connecting Lumira to a SQL-based SAP Instance to analyze sales data? Does SAP provide a “Business Content” similar to SAP-BW or do I have to join all the affected tables manually?
    How would the scenario above be if I connect Lumira to a HANA-bases SAP Instance?
    Any help would be appreciated, thank you in advance!

    Hi,
    there are a couple of similar threads already, which might give you suggestions:
    Retrieve Data from ERP Infosets
    SAP Lumira: Getting Familiar Freehand SQL Against SAP ERP - then to iPad
    both those links discuss using 'freehand sql' drivers in Lumira to connect to ERP Infosets . (a kind of ECC query)
    a similar approach, going via Business Objects BI 4,  would be to have a Universe ontop of Infoset, and Lumira connects to BI4 to consume the Infoset Universe.
    In both cases, the prerequisite is the definition of said 'infoset' - the creation of which would be handled by content creators within ECC environment, not likely the Lumira user.

  • Fetching Data from SAP ECC to BODS 4.0

    HI,
    I am trying to fetch tables like LFA1 and ADRC into BODS from ECC. I am able to connect to the ECC system from BODS.
    In Data services Designer I go to Datastore and add a new datastore as SAP Applications.
    I am able to connect to ECC using this. After that when I select the datastore and select import by name i get the following error

  • How could we read the XML data from a table using BODS.

    Hi Guys,
    My requirement is , As the OLTP system  consists of a table called person which consists of a column demographics. so how could i read this XML data which is in one column of an SQL table called persons. As this XML data will populate the remaining fields in my target using BODS.
    Regards,
    Amjad.

    Hi Amjad,
    I am afraid there ain't any direct method to extract XML field from a data base.
    Indirect way could be converting the whole table (instead of one field) into XML format and then extract one field from it!!

  • Error while loading data into SAP BW using BO Data Services......

    Hello All,
    I have a job to load data from SQL Server to SAP BW. I have followed the steps got from SAP wiki to do this.
    1. I have created an RFC connection between two servers(SAP and BODS Job Server)
    when I schedule and start the job immediately from the SAP BW, i get this error and it aborts the RFC connection....

    Thanks
    Praveen...

    Hi Praveen,
    I want to know which version of BODS you are using for your development of ETL jobs?.
    If it's BODS 12.2.2.2 then  you will get this type of problems frequently as in BODS 12.2.2.2 version , only two connection
    is possible to create while having RFC between BW and BODS.
    So , i suggest if you are using BODS 12.2.2.2 version  , then upgrade it with BODS 12.2.0.0 with Service PACK  3 and Fix Pack3 .
    AS in BODS 12.2.3.3. we have option of having ten connection parallely at a time which helps in resolving this issues.
    please let me know what is your BODS version and if you have upgraded your BODS to SP3 with FP3 , whether your problem is resolved or not..
    All the best..!!
    Thanks ,

  • Extract Data from SAP BW

    Hello Experts,
    We plan to extract data from SAP BW and load it to SQL server. I went through the guide 'xi32_ds_sap_en' which talks about  a few functions that need to be installed in SAP server, these functions are present in 'C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Data Services\Admin\R3_Functions\transport'
    1. Do we need to install all 4 scripts in this directory? to extract data from SAP BW
    2. our objective is to Extract data from SAP BW using the open hub destination service, is this the best way to read huge volume of data?  or are there any good alternative ways.
    Thanks

    To read data from BW Open Hub Destination is only available option at present.

  • Loadind data from SAP ECC 6.0 system

    Hi!
    I am about to implement SAP Best Practices scenario "B34: Accounts Receivable Analysis".
    Therefore I load the data from SAP ERP IDES system into SAP NetWeaver 2004s system.
    My problems are:
    when I try to load the transaction data for Infosources 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_AR_6 from SAP ERP system the following happens:
    the status is getting u201Cyellowu201D (194 from 0 records)
    at the next day the status is getting u201Credu201D and I received the following error:
    Errors while sending packages from OLTP to BI
    Diagnosis
    No IDocs could be sent to BI using RFC.
    System Response
    There are IDocs in the source system ALE outbox that did not arrive in the ALE inbox of BI.
    Further analysis:
    Check the TRFC log.
    You can access this log using the wizard or the menu path "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system".
    Error handling:
    If the TRFC is incorrect, check whether the source system is fully connected to BI. In particular, check the authorizations of the background user in the source system.
    Comment:
    I did not find any entries on "Environment -> Transact. RFC -> In source system"
    The Source system connection EC6CLNT100 is OK
    Can some one help me to solve this problem?
    Thank you very much!
    regards

    Jgen,
    check the t-code BD87 in BW and see if there is any IDOC pending...try to manually execute them.
    Its a connection issues as the IDOC's are not getting exchanged between the system.
    may be you are running out of processes and your job is just waiting.
    check the partner files as well in WE20 and see if everything is OK.
    take the help of your SAP basis team as well.
    Also check whether user ALEREMOTE exists in the source system in R/3 and give him all the authorization.
    check if the authorization objects like S_RFC and B_ALE_REC are assigned to its role.
    Also check if the authorization profile is S_BI-WX_RFC.
    check this thread and check the ALEREMOTE part.

  • OSB and SAP integration using XML web services

    Hi Team,
    We are designing solution for asynchronous and synchronous scenarios integration between OSB and SAP using web services.
    Can you please provide some pointers which tells about how OSB and SAP integration works.
    For an example:
    If we are designing the above scenario between SAP PI and SAP ECC, we know the below communication protocols are avilable:
    1.Proxy
    2.RFC
    3.IDOCs
    And also we know how adapters will get connect.
    Now ODB wants to connect to SAP to send and receive data. Please help me with information like:
    1. Is Proxy, RFC or IDOCs are applicable for OSB as well?
    2. How webservice scenarios can be implemented?
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi,
    >>>and what are the Forms ? for SAP Business Connector Related Postings ??

    excellent

    fairly easy
    >>>>Is there any way Business Connector Box can Pull the XML file from R/3 Application Server and store the file in the Business Connector Server. from that How do we Sent XML file to Non-sap. How do we Integrate ??
    business connector has both IDOC and RFC adapters so it can
    receive data from SAP (IDOC, RFC), send data to SAP (IDOC, RFC)
    and pull data from SAP (RFC only)
    >>>>what transaction code will trigger this event ? I mean is ther any SAP Transaction Code to Integrate Business Connector?
    either transaction from SAP (for sending IDOCs for example) or you can schedule (via BC scheduler)
    an RFC call to SAP that will fetch the data and put it in an XML file
    good luck,

  • Extract data from SAP using SAP NCO 3.0?

    Hi,
    Now that the new SAP NCO 3.0 connector is out and can be installed on 64bit servers we were wondering if it could be used to perform data extractions from SAP.
    So does anyone have any experience of hooking up SAP NCO 3.0 to a SAP system (backend SQL server database) to perform data extraction into a Microsoft Reporting Services environment?
    Looking at SAP NCO 3.0 itself it is just 3 DLL files but can't see any installation instructions to then hook this into SSRS as a .Net provider which we could plug into SAP system.
    Would be grateful if anyone could share any experience they may have here, thanks.

    Hi
    SAP NCO 3.0 is SAP Connector for DotNet framework 3.0 or higher.  Yes .. you are right, there are only 3 dll files for the same.
    It has both 32 and 64 bit version, you can install as per your requirement.
    You can download data from SAP with Visual Studio 2008 onwards by including them in your project.

  • Using SQL Server 2012 SSIS to Extract Data From SAP

    Hi
    What is the current best practice for using SQL Server 2012 SSIS to extract data from SAP R3? Please note we are looking for a solution that does not use SAP BW or SAP OHS.
    Ideally we would like to build our ETL SSIS process to make a .NET call to an SAP RFC procedure and avoid using web services.
    With SS2012 can we use any of these without using SAP BW:
    - SAP .NET Connector
    - MS ADO .NET
    - BizTalk .NET 3.0 Adapter
    Thanks and take care,
    Shayne

    Hi Shayne,
    You can use the .NET Framework Data Provider for mySAP Business Suite along with SQL Server Integration Service (SSIS) to import data from an SAP system into SQL Server database tables, flat files, or other compatible destination types. You can create an SSIS
    package that can be executed to import data from an SAP system.
    You must use the SQL Server Import and Export wizard to import data into the SQL Server database. You must provide a select query to specify data to be imported. The query must confirm to the semantics supported by the Data Provider for SAP. You can start the
    SQL Server Import Export Wizard either from the SQL Server Management Studio or from an Integration Service project in Visual Studio. Detail steps please see:
    Importing SAP Data Using SQL Server Management Studio:
