Prerequisites to transportation Hierarchie Info sources

Hi all,
Are there any prerequisites to take before we transport Hierarchy Infosources (PCFILE, not R/3).
Plz let me know,
Thanks in advance,
BRB

Hi
You should have an error message in the log of the transport that gives more information. Check the following:
1. is the source system definition (in your case the flatfile) active in the target
2. have you collected all necessary objects in the bw transport connection
3. is the name of the source system (the flatfile) in both bw systems the same? if not you have to maintain the translation of the source-systemname after the transport
Maybe you find the bug this way.
Kind regards

INFO SOURCE in BI 7.

hai friends,
I'm new to BI 7.. UP TO BW 3.5 we are using infosource .. but with out infosource also we can upload the data into data targets in BI 7.0
then ,what is the use of INFO SOURCE in BI 7.0
could u plz tell me the situation .. that where we can use this infosource in latest version.
thanks
@jay

Hi
The decision to use an InfoSource depends on how the effort involved in maintaining the InfoSource and any potential changes in the scenario can be minimized.
1. Data Flow Without an InfoSource:
The DataSource is connected directly to the target by means of a transformation.
Since there is only one transformation, performance is better.
However, if you want to connect multiple DataSources with the same structure to the target, this can result in additional maintenance effort for the transformation, since you need to create a similar transformation for each DataSource.
You can avoid this if the DataSource is the same, it just appears in different source systems. In this case, you can use source system mapping when you transport to the target system so that only one transformation has to be maintained in the test system. The same transformation is created automatically for each source system in the production system.
2. Data Flow with One InfoSource
The DataSource is connected to the target by means of an InfoSource. There is one transformation between the DataSource and the InfoSource and one transformation between the InfoSource and the target.
We recommend that you use an InfoSource if you want to connect a number of different DataSources to a target and the different DataSources have the same business rules. In the transformation, you can align the format of the data in DataSource with the format of the data in the InfoSource. The required business rules are applied in the subsequent transformation between the InfoSource and the target. You can make any changes to these rules centrally in this one transformation, as required.
3. Data Flow with Two InfoSources
We recommend that you use this type of data flow if your data flow not only contains two different sources, but the data is to be written to multiple identical (or almost identical) targets. The required business rules are executed in the central transformation so that you only have to modify the one transformation in order to change the business rules. You can connect sources and targets that are independent of this transformation.
Hope it helps
Thanks

Error when acivating Info Source

Hi
I get an error when I try to activate an info source 0TRANSTYPE. It activates fine on BW dev. Transports fine to BW QA, but gives an error on BW prod.
The error it gives me is :
u2022 Error when creating transfer structure /BIC/CCLC0TRANSTYPE_ATTR in source system 90
I did try to reactivate the DataSource on the source system.
I also replicated the DataSource in the BW system and ran RS_transtru_activate_all after the transport to our BW Production system. But no luck.
The thing is, it works fine on the Development and QA servers.
Do you have any suggestions on what else I can do?
Much appreciated.

Hi Arun
Thanks for getting back to me.
1) Both the QA and Prod system changeability is the same( This is the only infosource that I get this message with).
2) I also did a replicate an the source is visible for that source.
3) the error I get is R1304 - Error when creating transfer structure /BIC/CCLC0TRANSTYPE_ATTR in source system 90

Allocation of Info sources to Application Component Hierarchy

Hi Friends,
I have to allocate Info sources zo other nodes of application component hierarchy as they are allocated now.
Is there a way to do this benath 'Drag and Drop' in RSA1 ?
Or can someone tell me the name of the table where this relation is stored ?
Thanks and regards
Joe

Hi,
U just drag and drop the required ISs to the rquired application component hierarchy. I have no idea about the Table where it maintains the relation between the ISs and the application componet hierarchies.
Hope this helps u....

No PSA for Info Source

HI All,
We have the flow -
Cube- C013 to DSO- 610
Cube- C016 to DSO- 610
For that we generated Export data source from CUbe- C013 to DSO-610 and Export data source from CUbe- C016 to DSO-610.
As of now we followed the transport procedure from BI DEV to BI QAS
Collect all objects in 3.x format for 8xx objects (DS,Comm.str,IS,Tr.Rules) and transported to BI QAS.It works fine. All works normal, without doing any Replication/ RESTORE 3.X procedure Source is MS SQL using DB Connect.
I checked in BI QAS all 8xx data sources and all shows in CONTENT version BI7.0.
Issue =Problem for 8B05_C013 :
For this development:
We transported 8B05_C016 (DS,Comm.str,IS,Tr.Rules) to BI QAS and its transported and working successfully for C016 .
and
We transported 8B05_C013 (DS,Comm.str,IS,Tr.Rules) to BI QAS and shows in BI QAS as DS 3.x with the MODIFIED version and throws the below ERROR -
There is no PSA for Info Source 8B05_C013_OA and source system PBQCLNT150
Transfer structure 8B05_C013_OA NOT activated successfully Activate manually
I checked in BI DEV and BI QAS for the Data Sources 8B05_C013 and 8B05_C016, I canu2019t see any difference.
I think there is no replication needed for DB connect. If source is r/3 it requires replication.
Why it is giving problem for 8B05_C013 only?.
We implemented:
We applied Note 518426 , transported Data source objects and executed RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL but no use.
The Problem still exists Data source is in MODIFIED version in BI QAS. And planning to apply The Notes 1387854 and 1479294 require - Support Packages 23 or 25.
Our Bi QAS is = BI7.0 SP18
Can you please let me know :
what is the exact reason for the NO PSA error?
Cause ?
And the procedure or Solution to follow?
Thanks in advance.
Sri.

HI ,
Thanks for your help.
We can't edit in BI QAS as it is a quality system.
Through transports - we transported all ACTIVE objects from BI Dev and many times we did transports. But no use.
Thanks,
Sri

Transporting Hierarchies??

Hello Experts,
Is it possible to transport hierarchies from one BW system to another. I have to systems BW1 and BW2 i want to transport all my objects from BW1 to BW2 but I am having a problem with the hierarchy. The InfoObject is getting transported but not the hierarchy. Please do help me solve this issue.
Thanks in Advance!
Sweatha

Sweatha,
Another way of moving hierarchies woould be :
1. create a flat file from the hierarchy. use Document <b>How to Download a Hierarchy to a Flat File</b> from SAP site to do that.
2. In the New Box, create a flat file source system and load the hierarchy .
Thanks

How to load data into an ods from multiple info sources.

hi all...
i am given a task to load data into an ods from 3 infosources ...
can someone plz give me the flow .
thank u in advance..

Hi Hara Pradhan,
You have to create 3 update rules by giving the 3 different infosources while creating each update rule. And u have to create the infopackages under each infosource. with this u can load the data to the same data target from multiple info sources.
Hope it helps!
Assign points if it helps!

Error in Transport the info object

Dear all,
i am trying to transport the info object 0CM_CTAR
during transpot i am getting the error as
Characteristic 0CM_CTAR: Unit 0UNIT_DIM no allowed in compounding
but i checked in development i not got any error but when i am trasport iam getting error.
Regards,
siva.

HEllo,
Please see these OSS Notes
1139547 - Transport of InfoObjects RC = 8
1100575 - InfoObjects: Using units in compounding
The other way is to use a Z* object referenced to needed unit object in the compouding,

Error While Transporting export Data Source

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to transport a data source from development to quality system through acceptance box.
We need to transport an export data source which contains 40 fields. But when I captured the data source in development system and transported the same to acceptance box it's displaying only 38 fields. 2 Fields are missing from the data source which are present in development system and also source system of export data source.
Please suggest how to get these 2 fields in acceptance box.
Thanks,
Sachin Motgi

Hi,
Check if your data source extract structure is having all 40 fields.
Save and generate the data source again, replicate and then transport.
I hope it will help.
Thanks,

While creating Update rules -"Error Info source does not exist"

While creating an update rule I am getting an error that Info source doesnot exist though the inf source is active.
here is error:
No communication structure exists in version abc... A
Message no. RSAU251
Diagnosis
In order to be able to maintain the update rules an active communication structure must be available.
Procedure
This error message can have two causes.
No active communication structure exists.
Activate the communication structure in the Data Warehousing Workbench.
No communication structure exists for the InfoSource.
Create a communication structure in the Data Warehousing Workbench for the InfoSource.
<<text removed>>
Thanks,
Vasu

Hi Vasu,
as it clearly shows below message
No communication structure exists for the InfoSource.
Create a communication structure in the Data Warehousing Workbench for the InfoSource.
Create an info source first and assign it to your datasource and map the fileds in transfer rules and activate it.
Then try to create the update rules between your target and info source.
Hope this helps.

Use of info source in BI 7.0

Hi,
Please priovide me the informations
1) why info source is using in BI 7.0 while corporate memory is in the flow?
2) expert routine is using when our requirement was not satisfied with the standard rules, transformations. i want to know which routine is gud and advisable to use?
a) Start Routine or
b) End routine or
c) Trasnformation groups or
d) Expert routine
3) how do we select the DSO out of three? on which basis we want to choose and is delta is capable for all?

Hi,
The only reason to use a infosource in the 7.0 dataflow, is when you want some automatic conversions for time chars to happen .. if u r deriving the same on last level(cube), you would never need a infosource in between.. even though u have it ... as others mentioned there aint gonna be any considerable performance issue coming to load performance, coz u have a additional transformation.
Check these docs. They give a detailed explanation of how-to-do routines in BI7.0

Info Source 80FIGL_O06 is not defined in source system

Hi BW Experts,
When I am trying load data from ODS to Cube, I am getting a error messgae stating:
Info Source 80FIGL_O06 is not defined in source system
Error in Source system
This is an urgent issue. Please let me know if you have any suggestions...
Regards,
Reddy.

You can do this 2 ways. Right click on the ODS and say generate export datasource. The datasource will start with 8... and you can find that under Datamarts in RSA1-> Infosource. You can then create an infopackage and load from ODS through the update rules. You have the option of full load or delta load.
The other way you can go about this is again right click on the ODS and say update to data targets and just follow from there.
Did you follow the above steps? Where exactly is your problem?

How to find Info Source for Export Data source in Data Marts node

Hi
I need to load data from ODS to Info Cube. I created the Export Data source for the ODS. I can see the Export Data Source but in the Data Marts node of Info Source i cannot find the Info Source for the Export Data source i created. I replicated Data sources in the BW source system. I also tried to use Insert Lost Nodes from the Context Menu of the InfoSource node but nothing worked. Please let me know what i need to do to see the Info source in the Data Marts.
Thanks
Padma

In the infosource tab in RSA1 - use settings --> display generated objects
you will be able to see the datamart infosources..
