Question to Maintaining Source System IDs

We go to RSA1, and choose Assignment source system to source system ID in toolbar, system display source system ID field and Source system ID text field. So the question to this activity is that is this Source system ID flexible, not fixed.
1) E.g.in our case BW source system call THTCLNT100, so could we just use TH100 as source system.
2) Once we create one source system in BW system under Source system Tab, should we also follow this steps, namely Maintaining Source System IDs for this new created source system?
Thanks for the answer.

Hi,
as far as I know, the id can only be a character of length 2 so in your case just TH or T1 or something else. It's normally up to you. Once maintained it cannot be changed anymore.

Source System IDs

Hi,
What is the significance of the maintaining the source system IDs?
Thanks

Think of Source System ID as a field that serves the purpose of tagging the data with a source system identifier. This becomes important when data needs to be compounded with a source system identifier. An example would be if you have the same sales order #, or same customer # from two different sources and they had to exist in the same BW environment.
Also remember to keep your source system IDs the same throughout Dev, QA, Production. For one source system, they should not change in each environment.

Question Related to Source System of BI7 Technical Content

Hi Experts,
I activated BI7 Technical contents using SPRO Transaction.
Activation is successfull.
My question is that I could now find two source systems for
each activated Datasource of Technical Content(One BI self source system and another R3 source system).Is that right?
I thought that BI statistics wil be based on only BI as a
source system.
Please help me in this.
Thanks,
Senoy
Edited by: senoy laxman on Aug 19, 2008 3:29 PM

This is because, before actiavtion of technical content, those TWO source systems were already assigned (Check Boxes 'ON')...under
RSA1 --> Business Content --> 'EDIT" menu --> Source System Assignment --> see those check boxes 'ON' for BI self source system and R3 source system.
U r right..BI statistics wil be based on only BI as a source system.

Question to assigning Source System for Activation

We want to assign source system for activation, before business content-InfoObject catalog activation. The steps as follows:
1.On the Data Warehousing Workbench: Business Content view from the menu choose Edit  Source System Assignment.->This step is ok, no question.
2. In the Choose source system by default? dialog box select the checkbox in the column Default assignment in the row containing the source systems you need to load data from.->Now we can see BI system as default call DEGCLNT500 displayed, in my case we only connect one R/3 system call DHHCLNT100 to BI system.
So, the question to that is shoud we select both R/3 source system and BW source system as default or just select R/3 source system as default and dis-select BW source system?
Which one should we choose, both or only R/3 source system?
Pls help, thanks!

Hi hi ni,
If what you are activating it's going to retrieve data only from R/3, then select R/3 and uncheck BW.
You can change this whenever you want, if in the future you need bw, before activating, you can change it.
This doesn't means where is going to get the data from, this is just to look for active (and replicated) datasources to connect to the business content you are activating.
Hope this helps.

Diego

"Conversion of Source System names after the transport" : O

Experts:
Environment : BI 7.0 and SP 12
<b>Tranports related to transformation rules are failing with inactive status...</b>
Further investigation on this, I have noticed that in our QA system, where "Conversion of Source System names after the transport" : O screen, we have columns
Original Source System, Target Source System, 7.0, Description(I guess, since no name is found)
Everything looks fine to me with reference to actual techinical names of source/target system...
My question there is a check box on column "7.0", which is UNCHECKED. Is this correct?
My understanding is that, this check box needs to be CHECKED, since this is related " Only Valid for RSDS, TRFN and DTPA Objects ". Is this correct?
If yes, Can I check this box in QA system, save and retransport my requests. If so, what happens to standard BW objects i.e., transfer ruels, update rules etc...
OR do i need to create another entry with same source/target system and check the 7.0 box.
OR do i need to create 3 entries with same source/target system and check 7.0 box for each entry i.e., RSDS, TRFN, DTPA.
Finally, please advise the exact steps that need to be taken here...pros and cons
Your inputs will be of great help....
Thanks,
BI

Hi,
Yes you need to check the checkbox as it is related to Data sources and transformation and DTPs. you can mark the check box if your client is modifiable, if not you need to transport the setting from DEV. Go to
SPRO > Business Intelligence>Transport Settings--> Change Source system name after transport.
you also need to maintain the Source system IDs .
Hope it helps.

Source System in BI

Hello All
I have following questions related to Source system in BI. RSA1 --> Source Ssytem
1) We have following source system connection
BI (DEV) BWDCLNT400 ---> ECDCLNT400,
BI (QA)     BWQCLNT400   --> ECQCLNT400 and
BI (PROD)   BWPCLNT400 --> ECPCLNT400.
I would like to know to manage DTP / Info Packages / Data Source because all these are tied up with source system and we have different names in DEV, QA and PROD ? Is there any way, I can change the source system name after the import steps in BI ?
2) One way to answer my questions is to have a generic names likes BISYS400, as the name of the source system in BI , that points as follows, to different source system on ECC side
BI (DEV) BISYS400 ---> ECDCLNT400,
BI (QA)    BISYS400 ---> ECQCLNT400,
BI (PROD) BISYS400 ---> ECPCLNT400,
What is preferred from above whether step 1 or step 2 ?
3. when we create a source system ECDCLNT400 in BI, I don;t know why it is getting created within "BI" node, under the source system, I know for sure I got selected the code "SAP", before I create source system within BI. How would I move my source system ECDCLNT400, from BI node SAP node with Source system ?
3. Do I need to create the info packages and DTP manually in each region like DEV, QA and PROD again or can I import these Info Package / DTP from QA / PROD ?
Thanks
BI

Hi
1. If iam not wrong my understanding with your question is when you trasnport the Objects from DEV to QA
how the Infosource names will be changed. If that is the problem we need to maintain the Conversion for this Origin an Target systems after transport
in RSA1 - Tools-Mapping of source System names : hope this automatically leads to the tcode RSLGMP
for you
Origin Source System     Target Source System
BI (DEV) BWDCLNT400 -BI (QA) BWQCLNT400
2. For the Source system to be moved from one node SAP to BI , i dont think so u will be able to move that,
3. All the objects can be transported from DEV to QA and then to PROD or you cna create as required in the different systems
Regards

Bw 7.0 source system

hi all,
in bw 7.0 it is nessory that for creating new application we always create new source system
another questions in source system there are three options 1.bi 2.sap 3. file
what are the difference between in these.

hi,
is it necessary to create source systems in bw.
1. bi myself source systems--- internal(bi itself) transformation of data's between two
info provider's(data mart concept).
2. sap source system--- replication of application specific data's from sap system's
mm,pp,sd
3. ff source system---- loading flat file data's to infoproviders.
these three are must to maintain source system level.
if helpful provide reward points.

Source System IP changed

Hi BI Basis Gurus,
Please can you suggest:
Our source System IP has been changed , is replication of datasources , infosources etc the only option?
Do we have any mapping method which saves us form replication .....
What should be the ideal steps to follow in this case
Please reply ASAP
Manish

Hi
Once you maintain your new ip address in the sm59, you may need to replicate the data sources...if still you get problem then you may need to activate transfer structure using program 'RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL'...
if your source system id is changed then you need to maintain it in rsa1-tools--assignment of sources systems to source system ids....
Hope it helps
Thanks,

Source system assignment while transporting to quality

Hi Guys,
I have the following landscape.
I have created 2 source system ECCDEV and CRMDEV for my BIDEV.
Now I wish to do transport to Quality box and i want to know what should be the source system assignment , I should maintain in rsa1->transport connection -> conversion of logical system name.
When I maintain ECCDEV -
> ECCQUA
I get the error : ECCQUA entry does not exist in TBDLS.
Do I have to maintain source system ECCQUA(Quality) in BIDEV(Development) itself?
-Amit

Hi Rakesh,
Let me know if my understanding is correct.
In DEV BI, I create a connection to DEV ECC.
Also, I create source system ID's for source system.
In the QUA BI, I create a connection with QUA ECC.
and assign source system connection (source and target) i.e. DEVECC and QUAECC.
Then I transport requests(activated datasources) from DEVECC to QUAECC and replicate the datasource in QUABI.
Please Confirm.

Source System Refresh with BW system Connected

Hi SDN Gurus,
We are doing a source system refresh for CRM 5.0 Production to CRM Quality.My question is the source system of the BW system will be Changed and the BW Quality will have old data. What are the Post Activities which needs to be done in BW 7.0 system after the CRM system is refreshed.
So that the Quality BW system which will be now Production can have fresh data from Production System of CRM.
Thanks and Regards

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for the same.
I have another issue. My CRM Reports BI 7.0 is being displayed in Enterprise Portal, We have defined variables for user entry and they can select the values from the selection screen of the variable.
Let's say we have 80 thousand records and we have variable let's say Client Name, where the user wants to select his client name and display records for that client. The Screen shows him only 72 rows of data i.e nearly 1000 records of Client Name. But we have nearly 20000 client names, and only 1000 client names are being displayed to select from. If he does a filter (eg: A, it displays all the names starting with A, but when we say B or C*, though the data is available in the ODS table, those client name is not displayed in the Screen.
My question is how to Display all the Values or atleast when he gives A* or B* or Z* it should display those Names, so that he can see the records for those client Name.
I have done all sorts of R&D to achieve this but in Vain.
Please help me to sort this.
Thanks and Regards
Vishwanath

Bi content with source system connection

Hello all,
I am in BI 7.0 DEV SEVER, I WAS CONNECTED TO TWO SOURCE SYSTEMS X,Y, IN BOTH SOURCE SYSTEMS I WAS REPLICATED DATASOURCES, THEN I AM GOING TO INSTALL BUSINESS CONETENT FOR ONE CUBE WITH DATA FLOW BEFORE AND AFTER, IT WAS CONNECTING TO SOURCE SYTEM X, BUT I WANT TO USE SOURCE SYSTEM Y.
IS THERE ANY PROBLEM WHEN INSTALLING BUSINESSS CONTENT WITH ONE SOURCE SYSTEM X,EXTRACTION DONE BY OTHER SOURCE SYTEM Y.
OTHERWISE I WANT TO INSTALL BUSINESS CONTENT FROM SOURCE SYSTEM Y,WITH OUT DELETING SOURCE SYTEM X, HOW CAN I CHANGE TO SOURCE SYSTEM Y.

Hi,
you can't install BI content infocube for one source system and do the extraction in another source system.
when you are installing the BI content you can maintain source system assignment for one or more source system like X, Y for both.
if you don't have Y source system means create it or change the exiting source system..
hope this give you an idea

Changing source system reference

Hi,
When I transport from dev to Q, how can I change the source system assignments to Q system? I guess I have to change the assignments as they are referencing dev source system in development and should reference Q when they come to Q.
Thanks.

Consider you have BWD, BWQ and BWP and you want to have them loaded from R3D, R3Q and R3p respectively.
First you need to create R3 source systems in each of the BW systems (and not transport it).
For steps refer:
Creating Source System in BW
Before transporting your rest of the development make sure you have maintained source system mapping.
If it is not maintained then the same source system name will be used in the target system.
This can be done via rsa1->tools->mapping source system or transaction RSLGMP
Lets say your landscape in BWD, BWQ and BWP connected R3D, R3Q and R3P respectively.
In BWQ create a new entry with values, OrSrceSyste = R3D and TargSrceSy = R3Q
In BWP create a new entry with values, OrSrceSyste = R3D and TargSrceSy = R3P
If you are tranporting any datasource of BW sourcesystem (ex: technical content datasources), then
In BWQ create a new entry with values, OrSrceSyste = BWD and TargSrceSy = BWQ
In BWP create a new entry with values, OrSrceSyste = BWD and TargSrceSy = BWP

Question to Transferring Global Settings from Source Systems

1) When we do this steps, we found the following information as follows, so the question is that which fields that we should maintain?
BW User ALE
Debugging User
BEx order number
Releasest. hier
Monitor initial
Last IDoc no.
Last IS-Nr.
XPRA executed
Lock Mangr Logs
MD: Sing. Rec. Inst
RFC BI Accelerator
2) If we maintain some of fields should we do something before, and how? e.g. we know BW user ALE = aleremote, so should we maintain aleremote user using SU01 both in R/3 and BW before we do Transferring Global Settings from Source Systems
Thanks for the answer.

Is anyone know how to setting Transferring Global Settings from Source Systems, your answer will be high appreciate.

Language field is not maintained in the source system

hi,
I had problem with 0ehs_actn_text data source. when i'm trying to pull data to BW it's saying language field is not maintained in the source system.
I check the datasource there is no language field in the extract structure. and No fileds are checked for slection. I found one field REFOBJ checked in the data selection tab of datasource. But the data not coming to BW side.
could anyone help.
regards
kumar

hi kumar,
Check in rsa6 TXTLG field should be there and it should not be checked in HideField Tab.. then only the data will populate to BW..
So make the things properly and once again replicate the data source in Bw side.. load the data..
other wise if u dont wanto the language field in Bw side goto infoobject maintanance uncheck the "TExt Language dependent" option in masterdata/texts Tab.. save and activate it.. load the data..
i hope this will help you..
Thanks..
