Field Mapping from External System To BW
I am trying to map some keyfigures from another BW system to my companies BW system. The objective is to find KeyFigures in our system that closely match or are similar to the KeyFigures from this external BW system. Basically what I am doing is opening up different queries and going through the list of KFs that get listed under the InfoProvider. This is, as you can probably guess, a very tedious process! So, is there a better way to accomplish this? Is there a tcode which can list all the KFs in my system both BI content and Custom Z types so that I can print out a list and just go through that list? Any suggestions and ideas to make this process better and faster would be immensely appreciated .
IF YOU WERE IN NEED TO MAP CHARACTERISTICS AND KEYFIGURES FROM OLTP SYSTEM
IN BW
GO TO TCODE -SE11
DATABASE TABLE ->RSOSFIELDMAP->DISPLAY
UTILITIES->TABLE CONTENTS->DISPLAY-> GIVE THE NAME OF OLTP SOURCE NAME.
YOU WILL ABLE TO GET THE CHARACTERISTIC AND KEY FIGURE USED FOR FIELD MAPPING PURPOSE.

Create activity from external system
Hi
What is meant by creating activity from external system.
I need to work on an enhancement which deals with function module to create activity that can be called from external systems e.g. on demand.
I am not sure what does that exactly mean?
Any pointers would be helpful.
Thanks
AlkaHi guys,
Thanks for your answers... But is it possible to call transaction NOTIF_CREATE from an external system?
I have done something already so that those 3 fields will be automatically populated for a message sent from an external system.
I changed the screen and called FM BAPI_NOTIFICATION_CREATE(a remote enabled FM which is the one being used by transaction NOTIF_CREATE to create a message) inside FM BCOS_SEND_MSG.
I populated the category, subject and solution in the FM export parameters as well as the solution number in the sap data table. I put a destination also..
This FM calls another FM DNO_OW_CREATE_NOTIFICATION which is the one being used from the external system but do not cater the functionality to send the 3 fields that we need.
As you will notice, there are lots of standard objects that I've changed. =)
My problem now is that the system data sent is the same with the system data if you create the message using NOTIF_CREATE. Some system that were sent when a message is sent from an external system is missing but at least the sap system and client ID is sent. There is no external reference number also. But hopefullly, the users will accept it. Can't find any other solution to this.
Thanks,

CUP - field mapping from request to SU01 for Accnt No worked only once
CUP - field mapping from request to SU01 worked only once. I configured the Field Mapping for Account Number with Account Id. First request worked fine in DEV systems, 2nd and 3rd requests failed. Same thing happened in QA systems. Not sure whether the difference in SP on GRC and ECC is causing this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
We are currentky on GRC 5.3 ABAP stack SP 14.0
and
ECC - SAPK-53315INVIRSANH VIRSANH 530_700: Support Package 0015
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
VishHi Diego,
Yes, we are on VIRSANH SP15 also VIRSAHR SP13 for SAP_HR . My connector type is SAP HR System, Version ECC 6.0.
We are on GRC 5.3 Support Pack 14.0 . Our GRC 5.3 installation is running on ABAP stack.
It is very strange that in QA client, SU01 got updated atleast 3 times with new account number , user group. Tried 4th time, did not work. In DEV client, it worked only once.
Thanks,

How to call RFC from external System to get HR Data
According to the requirement the "HR" Workflow has to be able to view the employee details from external system Using the standard Microsoft connectors.
So, my job is to create an RFC where i need to fetch the HR data from the infotypes P0001 and P0002. And they will call this RFC by requesting employees surname, ID number and/or Employee number.
Do i need to simply write OPEN SQL statements in RFC or
do i need to call any BAPI's?
Setting up RFC's(Creation of Destinations) is not our job.
Someone Please help me in this regard with some valuable input. Thanks in Advance.
Ram.Hi Ram,
to get the information from HR sytem you could call the BAPI
BAPI_EMPLOYEE_GETDATA

'Accept IDOC' from external system
Hi Experts, I am new to IDOCS. I have to update one already written function module to accept IDOC in SAP from external system. In the function module I see some IMPORT parameters like 'input_method' and 'mass_processing' and EXPORT parameters like 'workflow_result' , 'application_variable' , 'in_update_task', 'call_transaction_done' . Can someone tell me what are these parameters for ???.
input _method for method of data records update
Mass_processing for handling the large number of Idocs in single take
Workflow_result for hitting the results at last
'in_update_task' update the records in update mode
call_transaction_done' by using call transaction method it would post the records -
Hi,
I have scenarion in that we will receive IDOC from external system (SAP system) in XI i.e. IDOC- XI -IDOC scenrio. from my Understanding ,to configure the scenario I have to do ALE from sender side and IDOC receiver channel in receiving side.
External system (SAP) -(ALE)-> XI -(IDOC rcv)--> Our System (SAP)
Please can anyone provide me steps to do ALE from external system.

Edited by: tapan singh on Feb 28, 2011 11:52 AMHi,
We can have alternate ways to send IDocs from external system to SAP system. One way is in below link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46b/helpdata/en/52/16abf6543311d1891c0000e8322f96/content.htm.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_40b/helpdata/ru/52/16abcf543311d1891c0000e8322f96/content.htm
I can think of few more, like In external system after generating Idoc, save it as a tex and send it to SAP system using Http post or using web service.
Look out to below discussion.

Send IDoc from External System to SAP system
Hi Folks,
I have a requirement to send IDocs from an external system to the SAp system. Basically the external system is a subsystem which is able to send & receive idocs. The external system is currently able to send idocs to SAP system through the ALE layer but now we have to replace it by PI. Now the external system has to send teh IDocs to the SAP ECC system through the SAP PI 7.0.
Kindly let me knowq how I can achieve it.
Regards,
SantoshHi Satish,
You can achieve this requirement
1)If your external system going to support web service cals then send IDoc from External system as a web service, in PI use sender side SOAP and receiver side IDoc receiver channel to send IDoc.
or
2)Use proxy program ,implement the same ALE logic in PI.
or
3)Copy the Extenal IDoc message in to file folder as XML,then use file adapter to pick up this message and send it SAP using IDoc.

Options to extract from external system
Hi,
What are all the possible options (DB connect, UD connect...) are there in BW to extract data from external system in BW and under which circumstances which one to use.
Thanks,
samHi Sam,
Some information about DB Connect.
DB Connect allows you to have extra database connections besides the default connection for SAP.
You use these connections to access databases and transfer data into a BI system.
In general, BI application servers can only be supported for DB Connect on operating system versions where a SAP Database Shared Library (DBSL) has been released for the BI database and the source database.
Please see this link below
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/a1/89786c3df35c4ea930a994e884bb4c/frameset.htm">http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/a1/89786c3df35c4ea930a994e884bb4c/frameset.htm</a>

Hello,
I have create a an external content type .
I Choose "Connect with user's Identity".
I create a external list that uses the ExternalContentType.
When I try open the external list from browser by User "TestUser" . I get the following error "Message from External System : 'Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\IUSR'.'"
My Question :
I need to know why pass the credential "NT AUTHORITY\IUSR" to connect to the data base not the
current log in"TestUser" ? How Can I solve it ?
Thanks
Hema
ASkHi,
did you configure Kerberos delegation?
NTLM fails when you try to open external list from client computer, because SharePoint cannot pass user's identity - "Double Hop" issue.
Take a look at confguring Kerberos for SharePoint 2010 white paper

Modify PO from external system
Hi all,
We are implementing SRM 5.0 with extended classi scenario.
Until now we have a R3 system where we create PO, but we also have got a functionality for modifing particular information of PO in a lagacy system, that comunicate with R3 between idoc.
Now we migrate the lifecycle of PO in SRM, but the legacy system remains.
Wich is the best way for modify a PO from a legacy system in SRM?
thanks
enzoHi,
You can try multiple methods ( mostly non-standard), one is use the SRM function modules to update PO, when you send the data from external system, other method is PO response( send the changes from external system as PO response in SRM).
Hope above methods will resolve your issue.
Thank you

Startrfc - SAP utility to invoke ABAP programs from External systems
We have used the startrfc uitlity that comes along with the SAP Presentation CD. This is bundled with the SAP RFC SDK kit. The startrfc utility can be used to invoke ABAP programs from external systems or servers.
When using the startrfc from the SAP server using the parameters
startrfc -h 10.60.0.31 -s 01 -c 100 -u USERNAME -p PASS -F <Function Module> -E TPPARAM=\usr\sap\trans\bin\tp_domain_<SID>.PFL -T LIST,300,w=list.txt
the desired results are achieved.
However when using the same startrfc with the exact parameters from another server we get the message " Incorrect user or password". If we use the SAP GUI from this server to connect to the SAP server using the same username and password we are able to connect to the SAP system.
Has anyone encountered any similar issues with Startrfc? Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks,
~NileshHi NIlesh,
Did you check that the password and user ID entered are in capita letters?
