How to make availability of Source Systems in BIW.

If I am trying to create a source system in BW, it is giving error as admin table is not set. Could any one tell me how to configure source systems to make available.

Hi,
Run the report SAP_RSADMIN_MAINTAIN in Se38,Then enter
OBJECT = BW_USER
VALUE = BIWREMOTE.
And then insert it.
Or follow the instruction given in the note: 410952

  • How to design EDW for source systems from different Time-Zones

    How to design EDW for source systems from different Time-Zones?
    Suppose IT landscape has a global BW in New York, and source systems in americas, europe and asia, then how the time-zones effect on time related things like delta selections on date or timestamp etc.

    As you said BW is global in NY, your source system must be global too. People from various locations can connect to same source system and thus timestamps for delta is always maintained as 1 single time. We have same scenario in our project. Our R/3 system is used by users in US and Europe. So we run deltas twice in day to make sure we got deltas from both locations.
    If scenarios was such that all locations connect to separate R/3 system, then obviously you have multiple queues. That is unique delta queue for each source system so deltas will be pulled as per data in respective queues.

  • How to create a DB Source system in BW

    Hi Guys,
      Can anybody explain me how to create DB Connect  source system in BW.
    Points will be awarded.
    Thanks,
    Chinna

    Hi Chinna,
    Below are the steps to be followed for the SS creation in BW :
    Prerequisites :
    1.System Number
    2.System IP address
    3.ALEOLTP like userid and password – this is the RFC user ID in the R/3 system. Usually set to communication - must be set to dialog in the R/3 Source System for the duration of the create/restore connection process.  Note: the password must be in capital letters.(If all instances are in unicode system)
    1.At the time of making the connection, the R/3 source system will need to be opened for client independent configuration.
    2.If it is a connection create or restore, the personal userid of the person doing the work must have SM59 access.
    Follow the naming convention which is being used in your system.
    1.     Logon to r/3 source system using the r/3 RFC userid to check that the userid has been set to dialog user. It is mandatory that the r/3 source system userid be setup temporarily as dialog to create the connection. If not contact the requester to have this done before continuing with the next step.
    Note: When re-checking to ensure that the r/3 userid is a dialog user, you may get prompted for new password. Change password, and make a note of the new password. Use this new password in the steps that follow for the r/3 RFC userid.
    2.     Logon to BW system using your own userid.
    3.     Enter transaction RSA1, In Source Systems, right-click on Source Systems as shown below to create new connection.
    4.     In the screen select the appropriate Source System connection type. Suppose your  are creating connection for r/3 instance, so in this case we pick the very first option.
    5.     A popup window will get displayed asking for the necessary information. To fill in the appropriate information in the that screen you need the following information concerning the r/3 source system.
    •     IP address (Application Server) &
    •     System Number
    Get this information for the r/3 source system from the SAP Logon Pad.
    6.     If Parameters have been incorrectly entered  then  the following error message will appear : “Check connection parameters for the source system”.
    7.     Re-check and re-enter correctly. If all is good then You will see the following prompt : Please log on as an administrator in the following screen.”Click green check to continue.
    8.     This will bring you to the r/3 logon screen. Logon using the r/3 RFC id. Once logged on click Check in ‘Check RFC destination’ dialog box.
    9. Consider the r/3 RFC destination screen.
    10. Check to make sure that BW system information (Userid, IP address, System Number etc) is correctly showing in the Technical Settings and Logon/Security tabs. Next do the following,
         Step 1: Enter password for the BW RFC userid id.
         Step 2: Save Settings
         Step 3: From Test Menu , click on authorization. Ensure there are no errors
         Step 4: Back out of screen.
    11.     System may ask you to logon as administrator again. Logon as in Step 10. This time click on Use in ‘Check RFC destination’ dialog box.
    Connection related processing will start up at this time, and continue for a little while (can be a couple minutes or more).
    12.     Subsequently, a dialog box will show up on the screen.
    13. Pick option, Replicate As Well.
    Replication and activation of data sources & transfer structures will begin.
    With the completion of this step you will have successfully established this source system connection. To confirm, right-click on the new source system entry and click on check
    14. If the connection is good, the following message with the source system ID will display at bottom left corner of screen : Source system connection is Ok”.
    Hope this will be helpful to you.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Could not make connection to source system

    Hello Experts,
    I am trying to fetch data based on selection for last month in info-package but when I try to enter selection (pull down button), I get error message - "Could not make connection to source system..."
    Any idea why this message?
    I have already checked connection to ECC - is fine.
    Datasource is replicated.
    Also if I try to run info-package without selection - I am getting yellow status, No data fetched. RSA3 shows many rows but Info-package to data (Full extraction.)
    Regards,
    SM

    Srini/Vikram,
    user credential is good. sm59 connection is good. there is data in selection as RSA3 fetches rows in ecc.
    when I run any info-package - I am getting yellow status? No data while rsa3 indicate data for Full update?
    why so?
    I am more of design person, not much into hands-on - so seeing these error for first time.
    Q1) if a package is already schedule - let us sat thru data source 2lis_11_vaitm. Now I want to go back and retrieve last month data already extracted... once again. I should be able to pull this data in new infopackage using Full update - data selection option.
    Q2) - rsa3 should fetch data based on set-up tables, so any infopackage based on Full update mode - should fetch data - independent of any other infopackage.
    q3) we need to do delete and fill-set-up table - only if extract structure is changed? right?

  • How to make CRM data sources for delta capability?

    Hi All,
    I know that the CRM data sources 0CRM_SALES_ACT_1, 0CRM_QUOTATION_I, 0CRM_SALES_ORDER_I have delta capability.
    At present we are doing full loads daily but it has got some performance issues.So we are thinking to make these as delta loads.
    Already some one has made a trail to make delta loads but not successful for some unknown reasons.
    Could you please suggest me the steps to make these data sources delta capable both in CRM and BW systems?
    As this is urgent...Please suggest ASAP.

    Hi
    Go thorugh Below the note: 692195
    Summary
    Symptom
    There may be problems or issues related to data tranfer from CRM to BW.
    Other terms
    CRM-BW extraction,upload,initial,delta,full upload ,Sales Analytics,
    Reason and Prerequisites
    There could be errors in customization or program errors due to which
    data may not be transferred or incorrectly transferred to BW.
    Solutions
    Question 1 : The Extraction from CRM to BW takes a very long time. What can be done? (Performance Issues)
    Suggestion 1: Please implement notes  653645 (Collective note) and
    639072(Parallel  Processing).
    The performance could be slow because of the wrong control parameters
    used for packaging.
    You can change the package size for the data extraction.
    Also note that changing the package size in the transaction SBIW
    would imply a change for all the extractors. Instead, you could
    follow the path in the bw system.
    Infopackage (scheduler)    > Menu 'Scheduler'   > 'DataS. default data
    transfer'   > maintain the value as 1500 or 1000(This value is variable)
    The package size depends on the Resources available at the customer side
    (The no of parallel processes that could be assigned =
    1.5 times the no of CPU's available approx.)
    Question 2 : On executing transaction RSA3 I get records but I find 0
    records when I load data from BW request.(No Data Available)
    Suggestion 2: First check if there are any entries in the table
    CRMD_ORDER_INDEX.Only if there are entries in this table you can
    extract records.
    If this is not the case then,
    It is possible that the user does not have sufficient
    authorities for extraction of  the relevant objects.
    Additionally, please review and implement the following notes
    615670
    161570
    150315
    618953
    If you are in the release 4.0 then
    To do BW extraction with the user please see that the following
    authorization object exists(display mode is enough):
    CRM_ACT,CRM_OPP, CRM_LEAD, CRM_SAO, CRM_SEO, CRM_CO_SE,CRM_CO_SC
    CRM_CO_SA, CRM_CON_SE, CRM_CMP, CRM_ORD_OP,CRM_ORD_LP,CRM_ORD_PR
    CRM_ORD_OE, CRM_CO_PU, CRM_CO_PD, CRM_ORD_PO
    (all these objects are linked to transaction crmd_order).
    Question 3 : The Deltas for my data source are not extracted . What can I do?
    Suggestion 3: Please check the following.
    Please Check if the services have been generated in transaction GNRWB.
    If they are not active(not marked 'X' before their names) then activate
    the services following the steps here.
    Go to transaction GNRWB
    Select BUS_TRANS_MSG
    Select (on the right, the services) : BWA_DELTA3, BWA_FILL, BWA_queue
    Press Generate.
    Also check  for the following:
    1. The delta should have been initialized successfully.
    2. Confirm that all Bdocs of type BUS_TRANS_MSG
       are processed with success in SMW01.
    3. If there are queues in SMQ1 with erroneous status then activate
       these queues.
       In Transaction SMQ1 if there are Queues existing with
       names beginning with CRM_BWAn (n is number) then
       activate these queues in the same transaction.
    4.a)If required activate the datasource
        Go to transaction BWA5   > select the required datasource and
        activate.
    4 b) The Delta may not be active ,activate the delta in BWA7 by
      selecting the name of the datsource and pressing the candle icon for
      'activate delta'.
    5. In BW system
       Go to transaction RSA1   > modeling   > infosources   > select the
       infosource   > right mouse click on the selected
       infosource   > choose option replicate datasource
        Activate the infosource.
    6. Go to the scheduler for the infosource   > select delta  in the
        update  >choose the option PSA only (in the Processing tab)
        > start immediately
    Check the entry in the RSA7 in the OLTP(CRM system)
    Question 4: How can I extract the fields, which are not provided in the standard  data source extraction .
    Suggestion 4: Follow the steps mentioned below.
    1. Enhance Extract Structure with the required fields. (Create & include
       an append structure to the extract structure via transaction RSA6).
    2.a) Release the fields of the append  for usage. (  To do this, double
       click on the Datasource and remove the flags in the column 'Hide
       Field' for all fields of Append. )
    2.b)If the new fields cannot be seen in the extract structure of
        the transaction BWA1 then change and save the datasource, and then
        activate it in RSA6.
    3. Define your mappings in BADI (CRM_BWA_MFLOW) to fill these fields.
    Goto SPRO .
    Follow the path ->
    SAP Implementation guide ->Implementation with other mySAP components ->
    Data transfer to the Business Information Warehouse->
    Settings for the application specific datasources (CRM)->
    Settings for BW adapter->
    Badi :BW adapter :Enhancement of datasources in messaging flow.
    4. Replicate the new Datasource to BW.
    5. Expand the Communication Structure in BW.
    6. Maintain transfer Rules for the new Datasource.
    7. Activate the trasfer rules and perform the upload.
    Question 5:  I am unable to extract  user status correctly.What should I
    do?
    Suggestion 5 :Check the following notes
    531875
    616062
    713458
    700714
    765281
    Question 6 : What can I  do when the activity/Opportunity/Complaint
    reasons(Code,CodeGruppe,Katalogart)  are not extracted.
    Suggestion 6 :Check the following notes
    481686
    516820
    603609
    617411
    711146
    Question 7:Deleted opportunities are not reflected in BW.
    Suggestion 7: Check the note 706327.
    Question 8: How do you  activate the metadata?
    Suggestion 8:CRM BW adapter meta data has to be activated first before
    it is available in the system. You can use Transaction BWA5 to copy the
    meta data for selected DataSources. You can reach the transaction via
    the IMG maintenance 'SAP Reference IMG -> Settings for SAP Business
    Information Warehouse -> Activate BW Adapter Meta Data'. For more
    information, see the documentation on the IMG activity 'Activate BW
    Adapter Meta Data'.  (Note 432485)
    Question 9: I donot get any records for the delta upload of my attribute
    datasource(s).What is to be done?
    Suggestion 9: In case of attribute datasources, it is possible that the
    entry for the GUID is missing in the table SMOXAFLD.
    If , for example the datasource 0CRM_OPPT_ATTR is not giving deltas
    then you can follow the steps:
    1)If Delta process is active for the attribute datasource e.g.
         0CRM_OPPT_ATTR,  then stop the delta process in the BW
         system 
    2) In the CRM system, Make the entry in the table SMOXAFLD
       for the datasource with the Key
       as  0CRM_OPPT_ATTR     GUID 3) Save the entry.Activate the datasource                           4) Check that the above entry is replicated in smoxafld_s also    after this.               5) Create a transport request manually for the following    object             R3TR   SMO4   0CRM_OPPT_ATTR    
    Question 10: What do the status BWSTONESYS0 , BWSTONEUSS0,BWSTTECSYS0 and various other BW status mean ?
    Suggestion 10: The BW status are used to extract system and user defined
    status.
    The BW status are defined in the customization settings in SPRO.
    Check for-> Status Concept for BP/Product/CRM objects
    Here goto-> Process user status You will find the documentation attached here for the user status. Going inside the transaction you will find the status groups USS0, ZIOP,ZMOP etc. The names of the various BW status are derived from this For ex. BW + ST+ One + USS0 gives the name of the field BWSTONEUSS0 or BWST + ONE + ZMOP = BWSTONEZMOP (Master opportunity values) (which means BWST + (status group name) + status object group name) Double clicking on any of the object groups will take you to the values that these status can have . For ex. BWSTONEUSS0 in your system can have values E001 ,E002,E003,E007 which will be shown in RSA3 as BW status values 1,2,3,7, respectively.
    Similarly we have Goto -> Process system status (in SPRO). Here you can get the values for the system status in exactly the same way as BWSTONESYS0(Lifecycle status) , BWSTTECSYS2 (Error) etc. In RSA3 you get the names as BW status, To know which corresponds to which status here,Gotothe record list in RSA3 . Here goto Settings - Layout -Current . Right click -> Press Show technical field names . You will be able to see the BW status names and will be able to adjust the layout accordingly.
    Thank you,

  • How to link bw and source system

    Any one has any document about "how to create a link between bw and source system!?
    I have tried to create this link, but i haven´t.
    I tried to do this: in Rsa1->modeling->source system i choose my source system (SAP) and click with the right bottom and push create. I filled the target computer; system id; system number; i put the password for aleremote user and bwremote user. After that i received a message erro when i save.
    thanks.

    Hi, to do this you need extensive authorization and an open source system (as in opened in SCC4).
    If you are not SAP Basis, perhaps you should ask them.
    And in my experience, if they never have seen how BI and SAP Source systems are linked, be ready for an interesting discussion and have all the correct documentation available.
    I think the link to the documentation is posted before.
    Kind regards,

    Hi all,
    I've got exactly the same issue with several extractors. I'm inialising the Master Data in a all new system, in the Quality the loads succeeded but in Prod it failed.
    For instance with the basic DataSource "0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT", I've made the following test:
    RS3 (R/3) - > 0 data
    ST22 -> no short dump
    WE05 (Idoc) - > everything is ok
    I reactivated the Datasource in R/3 (RSA5) and then deleted it and replicated it in BW but the same issue occured.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

  • How to create file type source system connection

    Hi All,
    I have to load data from Flat files , but when i checked the source system connections File type source system connection is not present. Please guide me how can i create the same.
    Apoorva

    Hi Apoorva,
    Goto RSA1 -> Source System -> Right Click on File Folder .-> Create -> Logical system Name as FLAT FILE -> Source system name is the description for this source -> Enter.
    Once it is created you can right click from that file and check whether it has created properly or not.
    When u r moving the objects which are created under this source, the same flat file source should have been created in the target system also. And check for the entry in the target system table RSLOGSYSMAP for the flat file when u r moving the flat file objects.

  • How to make available certain features available to a particular user group in APEX.

    Hi
    I am trying to make available certain features like (updating/viewing some fields) to a particular set of users. Our requirement is to use SSO for signing in. So when a particular user logs in she/he will be allowed to update or view only certain fields depending on the job role or designation.
    E.g If an analyst logs in she/he would not be able to edit certain fields. Those should appear to her/him as read only.
    I would appreciate if a step-by-step guide is provided using APEX since I haven't done any such things earlier.

    Powershell (or vbscript if you want to be old school).
    You can trigger a powershell script which will remove the offending user(s) easily enough with out resorting to a TOLDAP pass.  Nearly any script type thing would work but powershell is preferred.  It can be triggered separately from the TO AD stuff and will take multiple objects to run in one pass if you can construct the command line (or create a text file and feed it in).
    Otherwise, TOLDAP is the way to write to AD...

  • How to make Weather use my system language

    Hi all,
    My situation is kind of uncommon, but I would like to try to post here to see if anyone happens to know a solution. If I should not post this question (which is about sync between iPhone and Macbook) here, please let me know.
    Background:
    iPhone 6 plus (language is Chinese)
    Macbook Pro (language is English)
    The problem:
    If I add a new city in Weather on my iPhone in Chinese ( I had to add it using Chinese, btw), it shows as it is on my Mac. See picture below.
    I also noticed that I can add that city again on my Mac again, in English of course. See picture below.
    This happens in the other direction too. Adding a city on my mac in English, then it shows in English on my iPhone, and I can still add a Chinese version of that city.
    This is weird to me, because usually this should be designed as the same model with two different views (same thing in different languages), not two separated models.
    Please let me know if you know how Weather syncs data and/or how to solve this issue.
    === more: ===
    The behavior becomes even weirder if I add a city in one language on one device and then add the same city in another language on another device. Take the capital of France for example, I added '巴黎' (Paris in Chinese) on my iPhone (and it is synced to Mac), then I added 'Paris' on my Mac. To my surprise, the second entry shows as '巴黎' on my iPhone, not as 'Paris' (I now have two exactly same entries on my iPhone).
    And after I add another city on my iPhone, the second capital-of-France entry on my Mac becomes '巴黎' too. ( I think this is normal, as things are synced to another device when updated on one device).
    notes:
    - This also happens on the other direction.
    - This is not happening every time. Sometimes this bug shows up, sometimes not.
    - I found this behavior long ago. I'm pretty sure this is not only for the latest versions of iOS and Mac OS.

    Move the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> to the root of the other drive. Press and hold down shift as you launch iTunes and keep holding until asked to choose or create a library. Click choose and browse to X:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl where X:\ is the drive letter.
    You should also consider making a backup of your library to an external drive.
    iTunes will still want to store iOS backup data on the system drive unless you use the following process to relocate it.
    Moving the iOS device backup location
    Open a command prompt by hitting the start button and typing CMD<Enter> in the search box that opens up, or with Start > Run on older Windows.
    To move the current backup folder from C: to X: (for example) type in this command and press <Enter>
    Move "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "X:\Backup"
    Where <User> is your Windows user name.
    To make iTunes look for the data in the new location type in this command and press <Enter>
    MkLink /J "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "X:\Backup"
    If your preferred drive has a different letter or you already have a folder called "Backup" then edit "X:\Backup" accordingly in both commands.
    If you have Windows XP then you'll need a third-party tool such as Junction to link the two locations together instead of the MkLink command. The source folder is C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
