How to create generic data source in R/3

hi experts !
i m a beginner in BIW.
i wan to create a generic data source in my R/3 system. since there exists a Z table which i want to use in designing an infocube in my BI system. please someone help me how should i begin with doing it ?
thanx in advance

Akanksha,
Here am providing you with a scenario when we go for Generic Datasource and also the steps to create a Generioc DS:
We can create datasource based on View, Table, SAP Query or ABAP Query, and Function Module.
Scenario for Generic Datasource.
      One of the Manager who using reports wanted to have the  report which will him the list customers and sales document numbers created by them.
     In this case we can use of VIEW where kna1 and vbak tables were combined in the View definition or else u can say that “ABAPer had given the required view”.
How to create the generic Datasource.
      Goto RS02, select the Transactional Data, it will takes us to the next screen, where we need to give application component name say SD (01), then give the name of the Datasource that u wanted, select view and give the view name. Below that field we need give 3 descriptions. Then save and activate the datasource.
    Go back to the RSA6 screen transport it to BW system. Replicate the DS.
Hope it helps..
Assign Points if it helps

Gattu

    Hi Experts,
    I try to create a generic data source using the Function Module via the  transaction RSO2. I got the following error messages.
    " Das Einheitenfeld CURR des Feldes ZPKZA1 der DataSource ZBWN_DS_POLPOSP ist ausgeblendet"

    How shall i handle this issue..........any suggestions please........
    thanks in advance
    cheers
    sailekha

    Hi,
    Are your CURR fields refereded to a currency field of your structure?? Maybe the problem is that the field containing the currency is refered to other table/structure and it has to be one of your structure fields.
    Hope this helps,

    Hi,
    About Generic Extraction:
    In Sometimes the Standard Extraction Does not Satisfy the Customers Needs that time We have to use Generic Extraction.
    generic extraction is also classified in to three types
    using
    1. View
    2.Infoset query
    3.Function module.
    Procedure:
    -->Go to Tcode : RSo2,
    -->There give the name of data source which you want to create like
    transaction data source or master data attribue or Text data source.
    -->enter
    -->again in the next screen you need to give application like SD or MM
    etc
    -->in the same screen need to select table/view or infosetquery or
    function module. these are different ways of creating data sources.
    -->Give the name for the same like if u r creating data source on table
    give the name of table.
    -->click on Generic delta which will there in application tool bar and
    fil the required columns in that screen like type of delta and all
    -->continue and save
    -->it will give all the fieds
    -->enable the check boxes based on your requirement like selection or
    hide or field only..
    -->save

    How to do basic LO extraction for SAP-R3-BW
    1. Go to transaction code RSA3 and see if any data is available related to your DataSource. If data is there in RSA3 then go to transaction code LBWG (Delete Setup data) and delete the data by entering the application name.
    2. Go to transaction SBIW --> Settings for Application Specific Datasource --> Logistics --> Managing extract structures --> Initialization --> Filling the Setup table --> Application specific setup of statistical data --> perform setup (relevant application)
    3. In OLI*** (for example OLI7BW for Statistical setup for old documents : Orders) give the name of the run and execute. Now all the available records from R/3 will be loaded to setup tables.
    4. Go to transaction RSA3 and check the data.
    5. Go to transaction LBWE and make sure the update mode for the corresponding DataSource is serialized V3 update.
    6. Go to BW system and create infopackage and under the update tab select the initialize delta process. And schedule the package. Now all the data available in the setup tables are now loaded into the data target.
    7.Now for the delta records go to LBWE in R/3 and change the update mode for the corresponding DataSource to Direct/Queue delta. By doing this record will bypass SM13 and directly go to RSA7. Go to transaction code RSA7 there you can see green light # Once the new records are added immediately you can see the record in RSA7.
    8.Go to BW system and create a new infopackage for delta loads. Double click on new infopackage. Under update tab you can see the delta update radio button.
    9.Now you can go to your data target and see the delta record.
    find your scenario and find what data sources do you need on R3 side and ensure they are active as well:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/37/5fb13cd0500255e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    find your scenario -> data sources -> go to R3 -> sbiw and activate required data source
    replicate data sources in BW:
    RSA1 -> source systems -> right click on your source system -> replicate
    then activate your BC:
    service.sap.com/bi -> BI Business Content -> General Information -> SAP BW Business Content - Activation
    and execute infopackage (it should be delivered with BC)

  • How to create master data source for Profit center group in source system

    Profit center group information is available in SAP(T-code:kch3). But, I want to have this information in BW too.
    Can anyone tell me how to create a datasource for Profit center group? And which SAP table is able to feed master data for this information?
    Many thanks
    rajatina.

    HI ,
    It looks lilke we need to use the FM like 'G_SET_LIST_SELECT' to get the Profit
    Here ais note from the forums to get profit center group from table
    From Table SETLEAF,  Field SETCLASS  =  '0106'. Field SUBCLASS with controlling area. Profit center in Field VALFROM.
    You will get Group name in Field SETNAME.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Oopps...being a BI guy, always think of BW
    I have never created, though I will suggest to follow this:
    A query can be created to extract information from master records i.e Infotypes. For example, by creating a query , the data relating to an employee contained in various Infotypes can be extracted.
    Proceedure :
    Decide on the various Infotypes we want to make the query. Decide on the area where we want to query i.e Global area or Standard area. Standard area is client specific and globel area will include all clients.
    Menu : HR u2013 PM u2013 Admn - Information System - Adhoc Query
    Select area standard and select the user group already created
    Creation of new query :
    TC SQ03 - Select Environment u2013 Select Standard Area - Enter -- If new user group is to be created, enter name of the user group, click on create and enter necessary information and exit after saving
    TC SQ02 - Enter name of the Infoset u2013 Create u2013 enter name of Infoset - Data source -- > Table join by basis table u2013 give name of table e.g pa0000 - Enter - Click on insert table if we want to include more tables u2013 give name of table one by one and after finishing, place cursor on the joining lines and right click to delete unwanted relationships - check - and go back - field groups - include all table fields - click on generate button - go out
    TC SQ03 - Select user group - eg. Payroll
    Infoset - Enter name of newly created Infoset
    Assign users and Infosets - Assign infosets - put tick on payroll - save and go back
    TC PAAH - Expand the nodes and put tick on relevant fields depending upon necessity
    Save the query by giving the same name as infoset for easyness..

  • Generic Data Source for Hierarchies

    Hi guyz,
    Can any body tel how to create generic data source for hierarchies, plz give me the steps to do it.
    Thanks & Regards
    Veera

    1. Generate the DataSource for FI-SL sets using the BW IMG (Transaction BW07).
    2. FI-SL sets are not compounded in OLTP. If you want to extract FI-SL sets for a coumpound characteristic in BW, proceed as follows:
    a) Select the 'BW InfoObject (characteristic) is compounded' field and enter a data element (compound information of the meta data).
    b) After generating the DataSource, execute compounding in a customer exit. To do this create, a project for the SAP enhancement RSAP0001 in Transaction CMOD, and program EXIT_SAPLRSAP_004 (ZXRSAU04) as described in the attachment.
    3. Execute the following steps in BW:
    a) Update the meta data for the FI-SL sets in the InfoSource tree.
    b) Maintain the transfer structure and transfer rules.
    c) If the extracted set hierarchies contain intervals, you must allow intervals in hierarchies for the characteristic in BW. Check the hierarchy properties of the characteristic in Transaction RSD1 and set the "Intervals in hierarchies allowed"
    4. With this solution you can only extract sets created in Transaction GS01 (set class 0000).
    If the hierarchy list in BW for the set data source is empty, first check in the OLTP system whether set class 0000 contains suitable sets at all. To do this, start Transaction GS02 (not GS03!). Field Set class may be displayed; if this is the case, enter 0000 there. Position the cursor on field Set name and select F4. Enter the table and field name you specified in Transaction BW07 in popup "Select sets" and select "Continue (Enter)". If message GR003 "An appropriate object was not found" is displayed, the hierarchy list in BW is also empty.
    5. For CO groups (set class 01xx), the following DataSources are contained in the standard delivery
    ·     0ABCPROCESS_0107_HIER                    Business process
    ·     0ACCOUNT_0109_HIER                       Account number
    ·     0ACTTYPE_0105_HIER                       Activity type
    ·     0COORDER_0103_HIER                        Order
    ·     0COSTCENTER_0101_HIER                    Cost center
    ·     0COSTELMNT_0102_HIER                     Cost element
    ·     0PROFIT_CTR_0106_HIER                    Profit Center
    ·     0STKEYFIG_0104_HIER                      Stat. key figure
    On principle, sets can also be created for the DDIC fields of these objects in R/3 GS01.
    From Release 4.0, this no longer makes sense since the CO groups can then be used anywhere in FI-SL.
    With regard to the conversion of sets to CO groups in Release 4.0, please refer to the FI-SL-VSR Release Information for 4.0A and Notes 92029 and 51132.
    6. For other set classes, no DataSources are delivered.

  • How to create generic master data  datasource .

    How to create generic master data  datasource which utilises ALE change pointers for extraction of master data.

    Hi,
    For any master data lets say, Material Master, for this you need to create a view
    based on your requirement by selecting one or more tables into your view and
    keeping all the required fields in the view as viewfields and go to RS02 create
    generic data source, select the view option as source and put the view, save and
    activate, at the same time set the delta pointer as to whether Numericpointer/date/timestamp..this way you can create a generic DS then transfer the stru. and at the BW side replicate the source system..and so on..
    Hope this helps..
    Assign points if useful.
    Need further info revert..

  • Create a Generic Data Source and deploy a webservice on a domain using WLST

    Hello for everyone,
    I usually create generic data sources and deploy webservices on a wls domain by using the Administrator Console. I wonder if you can pass me a script sample to do this task by using WSLT. On the other hand, if you can pass me a "quick start" guide about WLST, this would be very helpful.
    Additionally, may I be able to create groups, application roles and users to a domain by using WLST?
    Thanks for your help.

    You can use standard infoobjects as well..
    You can create a view on those R/3 tables and use this view for creating a generic datsource in RSO2 transaction..
