hi,
we can update bw infocube with planning data within a day, using datamart scenario, we generate datasource in apo for that planning area and replicate to bw, assign to infosource, and feed to bw infocube. steps
- logon scm, transaction /sapapo/msdp_admin, right click your planning area and 'display'(or 'change'
- in next screen, menu extras->generate datasource, given datasource name and click 'V', in next screen datasource screen, check if any 'hidden' should be remove, and 'save'. the datasource will succesfully generated. to test and check etc, menu extras->data extraction tools.
- logon to bw, right click apo source system (create it if you haven't), and choose 'datasource overview', expand 'bw datasources' ->business information warehouse -> datamarts -> right click datamarts and 'replicate datasource'
- create infosource in bw and assign with that datasource
- create infocube and update rules with that infosource and following bw standard steps
hope this helps.
