Provision SAP Sourcing 7.1 (eSourcing) using IdM

We would like to provision SAP Sourcing 7.1 (eSourcing) running on NW CE 7.1 using IdM. Does anyone know how to do it. We can provision NW UME, but how would you provision buyer side and seller side user for esourcing? Is there a connector\Framework?

HI Anurag,
Do you get any idea about User provisioning in SAP eSourcing 7.1
If you have any document on this then please share it,
Thank you,
Dilip

Create SAP Source System Failed

Hi all,
We are using NetWeaver 2004s BI and try to connect to ECC 5.0. I tried to create SAP source system but got error message saying "RFC user logon failed". When I check RFC destination in ECC 5.0 for BI, the test connection is ok, but the remote logon will pop up another logon screen asking for id and password. I am pretty sure that the id and password in RFC destination is correct. The RFC destination in BI is ok. Can you help me out with this? Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,
Check the Default Logon <b>Client</b> for ECC 5.0
and verifiy that the User is in the Same Client
Each RFC destination has a mapped user for specific Client..Check the Client and User in the same client

Data Reconciliation Node on SAP Source System

Hi Gurus,
I'm working on Data Reconciliation between SAP BI and SAP R3 systems. I've read on the forum that the reconciliation DataSource technology is available as of PI-BASIS 2005.1 / SAP NetWeaver 2004s. I'm using
SW Comp Release Level Highest Support Desc
PI_BASIS 2005_1_640 0017 SAPKIPYJ6H Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) 2005_1_640
I wonder that I cannot see the Data Reconciliation Node in the transaction RSA6 in the SAP Source System. Please throw some light on this whether I need to activate them.
Thanks & Regards,
Ash.

Hi Sunny,
Thanks for your response. Can you suggest me what should I do to get those DataSources? Are there any patches that SAP has released to overcome this problem for lower versions as the one which I'm using?
Thanks,
Ash.

SAP Sourcing 7.0 integration with SAP ERP - issue with SAP PI

Hi All,
We are integrating SAP Sourcing 7.0 with SAP ERP 6.0 with SAP PI 7.1 in middle. So the Sourcing will talk to PI and this intern will talk to ERP. Sourcing is on oracle 11g where as PI and ERP are on SQL 2008. All these 3 are on windows 2003 x64.
We are following the "Configuration Guide Integration of SAP ERP and SAP Sourcing 7.0" provided by SAP.
We have successfully configured Sourcing and PI systems as pe the document. In Sourcing, by using background jobs we are able to successfully generate files in "export" folder which is part of FTP directory.
However the issue is with PI, we configured the "configuration scenerio" in Integration builder and point all channels to the FTP folder in Sourcing. But PI is not picking up these files.
Is there any way to trigger this in PI system. Or do we need to do anything in sourcing itself.
Regards,
Siva.

Hello Siva,
I am thinking that you may need to deploy FTP adapter in PI to get this process work fine but not sure.
Let's see what other experts suggest.
Thanks,
Siva Kumar

Error when activate a SAP source system

Hello Experts,
I have an issue when I try to create a new SAP source system but I cannot complete this operation because a Timeout error occurs when the system made the destiny verification, the source system can be created but not activated, I already create the RFC connection and they are OK, I add the new logical system of the source system in the configuration (SBIW) in the general settings,and the data source tree is show succesfully and sems to work OK and the data sources seems to be OK too.
In the RSA1 transaction, go to source systems tree, choose the SAP source system called: "conexion a dev 200" -> right click and choose activate and the error occurs.
I have a Myself source system already created and activated, I cannot find the source of the problems thata cause the timeout error in the new source system.
Thank you vey much in advance,
Niurka

Yes, I try ti use the create automatically option first but it doesn't work, because says that we system already exists because here exist a myself source system with an RFC to R/# ( I don't know why), so I must use the manually creation option, I put the logical system, and all the requeriments of the screem. The system create the source system but when I try ti activate it, it is impossible to do it....!
I hope that you can give some tips or solution for this issue,
Thanks!

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.

SAP Source system creation in BI

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to create SAP source system in BI, The trying to create ALE REMOTE user in both systems.
What roles and profiles i need to assign to this user id. After creating user ids what steps i need to follow. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Suresh.

Hi,
To Create SAP Source System In BI:
-Click on Source System tab in RSA1.
-Then right click on the heading Source system and select Create.
-Select the first option Automatic. Create SAP System and continue filling the other details.
-This will create Source system automatically.
When you enter background user's password, sap system user name is modifiable, but the the BI user.
The background user of BI system, is defined in
RSA1 => Settings => Global Settings
<b>BW User ALE</b> field will have the name of the background user in BI.
If you are using ALEREMOTE as background user, make sure the same is maintained as BW User ALE.

Collaborators in SAP Sourcing 10.0 must not view RFx responses unless assigned as scoreres

Dear SAP Sourcing Specialists,
We are implementing SAP Sourcing 10.0 We assign collaborators on an RFx as
with the collaborator approver role before it is published, and these collaborators
review, edit and approve the RFx and then it is published to suppliers. After responses are received from suppliers and RFx is now in
Closed for Responses phase, we do not want these original collaborators to view the RFx responses unless they are assigned as scorers.
How do we achieve this? We tried to re-assign the Review collaborator role to these collaborators but they can still view RFx
responses.
Steps to reproduce the issue:
1.Create an RFx in SAP Sourcing 10
2. Assign collaborators with approval role
3. Collaborators approve RFx
4. Move RFx to Open for Responses
5. Suppliers respond to RFx
6. Rfx closes. RFx becomes "Closed for Responses"
7. Log in as one of the collaborators
8. We do not want the collaborator to view RFx responses unless assigned as a
scorerer
Kind regards
Pedzi

Why don't just use standard functionality in Page Customisations?
You can Hide/Unhide a Tab with Dimension Field <%USER_GROUP%> and Group Reference.
It's a clean, standard way and guaranteed to work and not break anything.

How to define data-sources-alias.xml to use Oracle data source

Hi,
I created Oracle jdbc Data Source named "MYDS" in Visual Admin. I added the alias = MYDS_ALIAS. I set the Initial Connection to 2. On the Monitor tab, I see a green line running across the screen. The datasource MYDS is connected to the Oracle.
Now, I would like to define "data-sources-alias.xml" to use MYDS.
When creating data-source-aliases.xml it creates the alias by default on ${com.sap.datasource.default} which is the default DB.
I followed the link --> How to point data-source-aliases.xml to another Datasource
and my data-sources-alias.xml is now:
<data-source-aliases>
     <aliases>
          <data-source-name>$</data-source-name>
          <alias>BRANCH50DS</alias>
     </aliases>
</data-source-aliases>
The "EAR generatation has finished successfully", but when "Deploy to J2EE Engine", I got the error below:
1) How to define data-sources-alias.xml to use Oracle data source?
2) I found the link (SDA Deployment error) talking about "sda-dd.xml". How to create "sda-dd.xml" and make it use substitution variables "MYDS"

Sourcing integration with ECC using PI (percentage rebate scenario)

Hi Experts,
Sourcing - OP 7
ECC - configurations done for rebate conditions as mentioned in standard configuratin guide
PI - SP02 patch 0
We are publishing percentage rebates in Master agreement from sourcing to ECC to create Online Agreement using standard predelivered content for PI from SAP, however ECC returns error in RFC response mentioning
No currency code found for ISO code P1 in field HEADER_CONDITION/CURRENCY_ISO
I checked PI content & I see for % rebates, field HEADER_CONDITION/CURRENCY_ISO is always populated in PI with P1.
What are the next steps to be done in ECC or in PI to overcome the mentioned error.
Any pointers will be appreciated, Thanks.

Hello Jeet,
I would suggest to check first that in both your SAP ERP and SAP Sourcing an ISO Code P1 for percentage exists. Further I would check if a rebate with an absolute amount works fine (also create multiple amounts and check if a scale is created in ERP, just to ensure that it works in general). E.g. check if the price condition/condition type exists and is configured correctly in ERP.
If that all looks good you might want to check the ERP transaction BBP_ES_ANALYZE. I recently created a SDN blog about some tips and tricks, it also explains this transaction, please see ERP integration with SAP Sourcing tips and tricks Maybe the error message(s) in this transaction will help you to better understand what is going on.
Hopes that will help you

Mass upload of clauses in SAP Sourcing

Dear All,
Please let me know if we can do a mass uplod of clauses in SAP sourcing like we can do for the contract documents.
Requirement is customer wants to uplaod many number of clauses in clause library.
Thanks,
Vinay

Hi,
I havent done this myself and there is no such workbook for performing this function. There is however a template.csv available which can be used for mass uploading Clauses. Here is how you can retreive it:
Goto Setup > Import Data > Create> In the Upload Import File, select any sample .csv for upload in the picker field. Then in the Object type field select Clause. Make sure you check the Preview Import checkbox. After clicking next, you can see the template.csv available there.
Once you download the CSV to your local machine, you can see the fields available there are fill out with a few Clauses to see if this works for you. The process for importing the CSV will remain the same as for any other template. The only caveat I see is that sometimes users try and fix the Content options with a word document and that may not be achievable via this option.
Hope this helps,
Vikram

When changing SAP source table causes drop trigger

Hi folks,
Recently we had an issue where a table stopped replicating with ERROR status in our development HANA environment due to a dropped trigger. We were able to trace the drop trigger command to an abap user who had made a change to the source table directly in SAP. Apparently they added a brand new field to the append structure of table MARC. It seems somehow this automatically deleted the triggers. Not such a big deal in development but once we move the change to production this is a big deal because all HANA reports using this table will experience downtime if we have to drop and reload this table. My questions;
1) Should adding a NEW field drop the triggers?
2) What types of changes to a SAP source table would causes us to have to drop and reload a table? Before this recent event I thought that only changes to existing fields would cause this issue (ie: changing a datatype of a field, or length etc) however I thought adding brand new fields to the append structure would not be an issue.
We are on REV 82. Thanks for any insight you can provide.
-Patrick

Hi Martin, I looked into that note and verified the following;
Note 1875769 was successfully applied in source system
Note 1749824 had status of 'cannot be implemented' for some reason
So I have to dig into if that has anything to do with our issue. But can you or anybody tell me if we should in theory be able to add new fields to a table via APPEND without having to drop triggers each time?
Thanks
-Patrick

How to Reconcile Data Between SAP Source Systems and SAP NetWeaver BI

Hi,
I just read "How to Reconcile Data Between SAP Source Systems and SAP NetWeaver BI". While I'm waiting for more authorisation to r/3 to carry it out and test this functionality.
I'd like to ask a question to anyone who has implemented this type solution. On page 10 it talks about creating a view then setting up the datasource. The solution talks about runnig a query. I suspect when we run a query I would run it for only a period(using variable) to reconcile.
My question is this. Will the datasource extractor on /r3 only select the period in our variable or will it do a full selection of the data which would then be passed to BW for filtering?
Regards

DEar Mark,
There are several avenues where you can see and reconcile your data with source system, u can see data in by tcode RSA3 for a datasource, and compare the values with actual document posted into the R/3 system. Respective fuctional consultant canhelp you a lot to confirm the data.
On BW side u can see the data in PSA and then check tranformations which subsequent change/update/reject data records based on the selective conditions.
hope this helps.
Kindly assign the points if it works.
Revert back if u need futher help/information.
