Getting List OF Non Sap Sources

Hi experts,
Because of several changes we aremaking on the server, we need to know exactly each flat file connected to our BW system.
When I go to the RSA1/ Source Systems / Flat Flies I Can get a list of each DataSource connected to this files, but I'm not able to get the file name and the folder...
Can someone gime me some help please?
Thanks!!

Hi,
When you look at the FF datasources in RSA1->Source systems, you should be able to see the file paths in the extraction tab of the infopackages.

Lots of tables in the non-SAP source systems

Hi All,
Earlier I asked a question on SDN about having about 50 tables in non-SAP source systems like SQL, Oracle, etc. According to the functional/business folks here, I'm supposed to be extracting only 1 or 2 fields from many tables. So I got a reply from SDN that I should recommened creating Views and client also agreed. Now I do not see any official documentation from SAP that that says that I should create Views in the source ysystem wherever it is possible. Any help in getting this information is very helpful.

Hi,
1. authorization: normally the database admin create you a new user. It's easier to get read authoriziation for your own views.
2. a problem is the naming convension of tables and fields - the BW/database connector supported not all. create the fields
- in upper case and
- a length of ... (16 characteristcis?)
- without special signs.
=> looking in service.sap.com/notes for "DB connect"
3. changing of data source: when you need a second table for the data extraction, then you have to create a new datasource.
=> create a view directly (its the same to multiprovider. Don't work with the object directly - create a view).

Non-SAP Source systems for gas and power trading operations

Hi Experts, I have this client who has no R/3 systems. They have few MS Access databases, Oracle systems annd MS SQL DB. I have seen some of the most commonly used tables in all the databases and doesn't look like there are not even a single InfoObject that is similar to any one in Business Content. Now this makes me feel that I need create everything from scratch. Can anybosy guide me on the best way to go about extracting data from this non-SAP systems. Right from connecting to these systems to extracting data in BI to creating some meaningful reports.
They do not have the concept of Master data here. All they have is Data in the MS Access databases.I need some assistance from experts here in how do I go about organizing this.

hi,
The BW can be connected to Non-SAP data using DB or UD connect.
The data in Non-SAP source system is staged in form of tables.
You can extract the data using Data Source based on DB or UD connection.you can define new info objects and data flow which extracts the data. In DS description you can mention the Non-SAP source system tables from where you want to extract the data, after that u can mention the fields to be extracted in BW.

Arvind.

Implementation strategy for non sap sources

hai friends,
could anyone help with the
'implementation strategy for non sap sources'.

Hi,
Its the same as with R3 sources.Only difference is you'll have different underlying interfaces. Non SAP systems can either be flat files, ETL systems or legacy systems using ETL connection, Oracle or Java systems XML, etc.
But your stategy would remain the same only per your non sap source system, the transactions and the ways you configure your datasources would differ.

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:

Hello, i need to ask about db connect. who needs to create the initial db connect connection? basis or bi person? also, what is the process if it is bi person's responsibility? Do i need to create a sm59 connection under "HTTPS Connection to external server". then go under db connect under rsa1 > source system and create a system there? please help. thanks

Hi Vik,
Please follow the below steps in RSA1 to create Source system
Create DBMS Source system in Source System folder of Administrative WorkBench(RSA1). Fill in the following fields
1. DB Connection = (Logical System Name)
2. DMBS =(DBMS name u2014 see above)
3. User Name & DB Password = (Database username and password)
4. Connection Info = ( database and host name on which database is running)
5. Permanent = (if checked; the SAP workflow will try to re-establish the interrupted connection)

SLT not working properly with Non-SAP source

Dear All,
We have MSSQL 2005 as a source. We are doing SLT to load data in HANA.
The issue here is:
MSSQL has an integer field whose default value is set to NULL. However, after doing SLT, data in HANA default data comes as Zeros instead of NULLS.
The issue is with columns with integer datatypes only.
Please help.

SAP Source System showing up as BI Source System in RSA1

I have 2 BW systems and 2 CRM Systems. In one BW system, when I create a SAP Source system in RSA1, It gets listed as a SAP Sources system along with ECC and all the rest.
The Logicial Systems and RFC Connections all appear to be the same between each pair.
In the other system, using identical procedure, it the source system gets listed as a BI Source System. The 2 CRM systems have identical components and version levels as do the 2 BW systems.
Any idea why and if this would make any difference and how to correct.

Hi,
To fix this, you need to do a restore (& not a delete) of the source system in BW, having deleted the RSBASIDOC entry in the source OLTP system.
This will force the BW system to interrogate the RSBASIDOC table entry in the source system again and it should then realise that it is an R/3 system (not a BW system) and move the entry to the SAP folder.

Data load into SAP ECC from Non SAP system

Hi Experts,
I am very new to BODS and I have want to load historical data from non SAP source system into SAP R/3 tables like VBAK,VBAP using BODS, Can you please provide steps/documents or guidelines on how to achieve this.
Regards,
Monil

Hi
In order to load into SAP you have the following options
1. Use IDocs. There are several standard IDocs in ECC for specific objects (MATMAS for materials, DEBMAS for customers, etc., ) You can generate and send IDocs as messages to the SAP Target using BODS.
2. Use LSMW programs to load into SAP Target. These programs will require input files generated in specific layouts generated using BODS.
3. Direct Input - The direct input method is to write ABAP programs targetting on specific tables. This approach is very complex and hence a lot of thought process needs to be applied.
The OSS Notes supplied in previous messages are all excellent guidance to steer you in the right direction on the choice of load, etc.,
However, the data load into SAP needs to be object specific. So targetting merely the sales tables will not help as the sales document data held in VBAK and VBAP tables you mentioned are related to Articles. These tables will hold sales document data for already created articles. So if you want to specifically target these tables, then you may need to prepare an LSMW program for the purpose.
To answer your question on whether it is possible to load objects like Materials, customers, vendors etc using BODS, it is yes you can.
Below is a standard list of IDocs that you can use for this purpose to load into SAP ECC system from a non SAP system.
Customer Master - DEBMAS
Article Master - ARTMAS
Material Master - MATMAS
Vendor Master - CREMAS
Purchase Info Records (PIR) - INFREC
The list is endless.........
In order to achieve this, you will need to get the functional design consultants to provide ETL mapping for the legacy data to IDoc target schema and fields (better to ahve sa tech table names and fields too). You should then prepare the data after putting it through the standard check table validations for each object along with any business specific conversion rules and validations applied. Having prepared this data, you can either generate flat file output for load into SAP using LSMW programs or generate IDoc messages to the target SAPsystem.
If you are going to post IDocs directly into SAP target using BODS, you will need to create a partner profile for BODS to send IDocs and define the IDocs you need as inbound IDocs. There are few more setings like RFC connectivity, authorizations etc, in order for BODS to successfully send IDocs into the SAP Target.
Do let me know if you need more info on any specific queries or issues you may encounter.
kind regards

Service desk for non-sap (please - any inputs are welcome)

hi all,,
I know how to setup service desk for SAP use. Can some one provide me some tips on using solution manager - service desk for non-sap as well? eg: the company wants to use service desk for normal activities as well, as laptop not working, server down, other system issues etc.
The questions I have are -
1) Any specific structure to be created for the non-sap? The way we use in SAP specific environment is to use "SAP Components" while creating tickets. How can we create tickets for non-sap components? What will be the "responsibility" selection?
2) How about the Ibase? For SAP, the ibase already have the data from SMSY. How can I get data for non-sap systems? Anything is SAP to keep the Asset management data (like entries of laptops, servers etc)
Thanks for all the suggestions !!

Hi
You need to go for service desk XT which is the extension of service desk to manage non sap or IT incidents
Check below link
https://websmp110.sap-ag.de/_solutionmanager
Heterogeous system environments are a challenge for IT-service management in any company. The associated complex structures and varying forms of media often make it difficult to realize efficient service processes. With SAP Solution Manager Service Desk - Extended Usage (Service Desk XT), SAP offers a centralized support tool as a single point of access - for service requests and problem tickets related to SAP and non-SAP software.
The Single Point of Access for Support
SAP Solution Manager, which is a standard part of every SAP solution and therefore can be used by all SAP customers, supports users in SAP relevant service requests. The standard function of the service desk is restricted to service requests.
With Service Desk XT, SAP provides an extended support tool, which can be also used for general service requests, for example regarding IT or telecommunication equipment.
This priced add-on does not require additional interfaces to third-party products - the same service requests are used for SAP and non-SAP applications. This simplification is a benefit for your employees.
This solution has been created with IT service providers in mind, especially those which work within a company and currently do not have an IT-service desk application in place or would like to replace an existing system.

Delivery document data transfer to non sap server.

Hi,
My requirement is ,when i created delivery label (vl01), this delivery document should be sent to FTP server instead of printer in flat file format.
Normally for delivery document printing we use VL71 t.code,but in my requirement i have to create new program and configure this program in NACU tcode for particular output type.
How we approach this scenario, please help me.(for data down load to flat file and transfer to server).
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I think you are mixing different concepts. UD connect , DB connect and Web services are methods to upload data from non-SAP source systems to BW. Ud connect is to loada data from SQL tables , DB connect from oracle table.
If you want to transfer data to other systems Open hub is the easiest way. You can put the data in a flat table throught the open hub. You can fill the table with delta method.
Open hub allows to load data from, infocubes, dso, or infoobjects.
I hope it helps.

Compliance Calibrator 5.2 RTA for Non-SAP Apps

Hi all,
Can SoD rules be written for analyzing a Users access to SAP and NON-SAP applications across the enterprise?
If yes will CC RTA need to be installed on the NON-SAP application?
If yes are there any requirements that need to be met by NON-SAP application and is there a list of NON-SAP applications (other than-Peoplesoft, Oracle, Hyperion, JD Edwards) that CC has an RTA for?
Is there any documentation specific to aplications that can support CC RTAs and installation on these?
-Cheers

Hi,
Yes SoD rules can be written for analyzing user accesses to SAP and non-SAP applications.
Basically there is no other application for which an RTA exists, but there is a documentation discussing the technical requirements for file generation from the non-SAP systems for integration of non-SAP Systems with SAP Compliance Calibrator.
This documentation is available in <a href="http://service.sap.com/rkt-grc">http://service.sap.com/rkt-grc</a>
under SAP GRC Access Control 5.2 -> SAP GRC Compliance Calibrator 5.2 -> Step2: Prepare for your project -> Cross Application Material
You'll need your OSS user-id to access that page; in case you cannot access it, please post a message in the OSS.
