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
BW User ALE 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.

Message "Creation of DataSources for SAP source system is not permitted"

Hi,
I am in DW Workbench: Modeling and I need to copy a DataSource.
It's impossible, beacause I have this Message "Creation of DataSources for SAP source system is not permitted"!
What can I do?
Thks

Hii.
You can not copy the standard datasource to any other source system it will not allow you to do that.
But if you want to copy you can copy it to PC FILE source system.
It will allow you to copy there.
Right click in Datasource->Copy-> Give Target datasource name -
> intarget Source system tab -
>Give Source system for File.
Thanks

Issue in source system creation under sap node

hi,
i am facing a strage issue here while creating a sap source system.
i have two development systems - bd1 for bi development, rd1 for r/3 development. rfc is propely maintained between both of the systems. now im creating the source sytsem under transaction rsa1 - source sytem - sap, i put in all the details and it prompts me to log in to the source system as well. it creates the system properly but the problem is that im creating it under the node sap and it goes under the node bi.
i have deleted it from there and repeated the same process again but still everytime it comes only under the node bi irrespectiv e of the thing that im creating it under sap.
this is the first time im facing this strange issue i have done the same process many time but never seen nething like this, does anyone have any idea for the same.
kindly give ur inputs.
thanks

Hi Dipika,
It is not an operational issue. Its just a display and should not have any problems.
Please go through the below SAP Note to fix the issue.

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!

Source system creation

hi experts,
this is the first time i am creating source system
i am have requirement to load data one bw system to another bi system,
so, to do that i defined and created logical system in bw for bi system and
i created same for bw in bi system also and everything is ok.
i guess my next step is to create source system(my self) for bw in bi .
when i am trying to create it is showing that it is already exists.and here what type of source system i need to choose. i am not founding any my self bw data mart
status symbol under source system creation node and what type of the source system i need to choose and whether it is manually or automatically.if i choose automatically it is asking create new destination ,create back ground user and connection of source system to bw (it is asking to fill all fields),for manual system creation only logical system and rfc destination. is it required to creat source system or not because my self bw data mart symbol is present in bw system and bi system also.please correct me if anything wrong
thanks
venu

hi chandra shekhar &chitrat,
thanks for your quick reply,when i choose sap business information symbol
it is asking to fill all the entries like crate new destination under this i provided
target computer in this i provided ip address of bi system( i am creating in bw system),system id & system number,and back groung user in source system and
password ,connection to the source system ,target system for back ground user
and connection to the source system what i need to provide
thanks

Error while source system creation/Source system transport

Hi,
     In our BW implementation, the system landscape is only 2 servers. One is BW Dev, another is BW Prd. All configurations are done in BW Dev and I extracted the data from QAS for this BW Dev system.
     Since we cant create the source systems in the BW Production system, I tried to create the source system for the SAP R3 Production system in BW Dev and trying to transport this to BW Production Instance.
     I have two queries.
1. Is this way is correct for creating the Source System for BW Production system?
2. When I tried to activate the source system I am getting the following error messages. (I tested the RFC Destinations. There is no problem, I also done the configurations for logical system creation and client assignment in both the systems).
Error in source system GWPCLNT900
     Message no. RSAR502
Diagnosis
     With Remote Function Call to system GWPCLNT900 error connection closed
     (no data) ccurred.
Procedure
     Remove the cause of the error.
When tried again I got the following error message
Basic type ZSBB030 doesnt exist. EA 447
Result of the destination check: Timeout RSAR 375.
Could anyone throw some light on these errors?
Thanks in advance.
Krishna

Hi,
you need to maintain the logical systems on both R/3 and BW. You also need to set up the RFC connection with users that can log in to the other system. The R/3 system must be open for customizing in scc4.
In transaction se03 the system change options for 'Business Information Warehouse: SAP Namespace' and 'Business Information Warehouse: Customer Namespace' may need to be modifiable. I am not completely sure about this.
The last thing I will mention is that I have seen source system creation fail when the RFC-users are system users, and the source system creation worked if the RFC-users was display user while creating the source system. The RFC-users must be changed back to system user later...
Please look at best practice documents on a more step-by-step guide...
Best regards,
Christian Frier

R/3 Source system creation

Hello,
I wish to add an R/3 system to my BI 7.0 system. What exactly do I need to enter in the "Create SAP Source System" window? Should I leave backgrounduser as ALEREMOTE? I dont see any option of automatic source system creation. Could u pls help me with a step by step solution.
Thanks. POINTS WILL BE GIVEN.
SD

Hi
Defining the source system
As of release 640, you can use upper and lower case characters for R/3 user passwords. This is only uppercase characters for previous releases. Remember that your passwords are automatically converted to uppercase in previous Basis releases.
As BI 7.0 System has Basis 700 below, upper and lower case passwords are important.
So, for defining source system is almost same as ordinary BW Source System definitions.
One more important thing is that you have to take into account the EDI Ports. This may cancel your system definition if the <spsettings are not correct. This settings must be controlled on both BI and Source System.
Here are the steps to configure Source System with Basis Relase lower than 640 in BI 70:
1. Take a look at table EDIPORT of your BW system and note the next free number for the field "Port". This is the adjacent number of the highest entry like 'A0000000123' for example. In this case e.g. take '124'.
2. Choose transaction "snum" and object "ediport".
Select "number ranges" from the menu "Goto" and here the button "status".
Change the CURRENT NUMBER of the ranges to the next free number you noted from table EDIPORT.
If the number range of your BW system is correct please check the same in your OLTP system.
3. Call TCODE RSA1 on BI System in BI Client.
4. Select Source Systems on Left Menu
5. Left Click SAP System and Choose Create
6. Important think is, as source system has Basis Release Lower than 640, You have to give All Passwords (For BI ALEREMOTE User and for Source System ALEREMOTE User) in UPPERCASE.
My Favourite is giving RFCCPIC for ALEREMOTE Passwords.
7. It Must Be OK.
Assign points if it helps

Sumit

A question about item "type and release" of source system creation

Hello expert,
I have a question about item "type and release" of source system creation.
As we know,when we create a web servie source system,there will display a pop-up which includes three items as "logical system","source system"and "type and release".
About the item "type and release",when we push "F4" button,there will be three default selections as below:
"ORA 115     Oracle Applications 11i
TLF 205     Tealeaf 2.05B
XPD 020     SAP xPD".
Who can tell me when and how should I use the three selections.
And also I attempted to input the item by some optional letters except the default three selections and it seems that I can input it freely.
Thank you and Best Regards,
Maggie

Hello DMK,
Thank you very much for your answer.It is very helpful for me.
Can I ask you further about it?
I got that it is a semantic description item.
You said the default selections are set by our basis people.Would you like to tell me how should we creat a new value except the default ones for item "type and release"?Only by inputing the value in the item directly?But you see we canot see the new value item we created by ourself when we push "F4" button next time ,is that ok?Or do we have to ask basis people to define one new value item just like the default seletions before we use it.
Also if possible would you like to describe detail about "This becomes important when you are troubleshooting certain issues especially when RFC connection problems."
Thank you and Best Regards,
Maggie

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 Client 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
regards

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 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.

Source System creation in BI 7.0 for SQL Server using DB Connect

Hi
My requirement is to extract data from SQL Server 2005 to BI 7.0 using DB Connect.
I need to create a SOURCE SYSTEM for that purpose,As i am new to BW i don't know how to start to create a SOURCE SYSTEM.
What are the parameters i require either from Basis team to install or for DB team User ID in SQL (What type of user).
Questions:
1) create a db user with authorization to read this views.......as i created views on tables...do i need authorisation to read table or views
"On BW Server side (If BW server isn't based on SQL Server):
(1) Install SQL Server client and test connection to SQL Server DB.
(2) Install DBSL of SQL server (download lib_dbsl_<num>.sar file from service market and sapcar to BW kernel)"
How can i know on which server our BW System is Based and HOW Install SQL Server client and test connection to SQL Server DB and
Install DBSL of SQL server (download lib_dbsl_<num>.sar file from service market and sapcar to BW kernel
and
how to create Source System to SQL Server on BW
Please update me in details i this is my first Source System Creation in BW
Thanks in advance

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.

Non-SAP Source systems for gas and power trading operations

Hi Experts, I have this client who has no R/3 systems. They have few MS Access databases, Oracle systems annd MS SQL DB. I have seen some of the most commonly used tables in all the databases and doesn't look like there are not even a single InfoObject that is similar to any one in Business Content. Now this makes me feel that I need create everything from scratch. Can anybosy guide me on the best way to go about extracting data from this non-SAP systems. Right from connecting to these systems to extracting data in BI to creating some meaningful reports.
They do not have the concept of Master data here. All they have is Data in the MS Access databases.I need some assistance from experts here in how do I go about organizing this.

hi,
The BW can be connected to Non-SAP data using DB or UD connect.
The data in Non-SAP source system is staged in form of tables.
You can extract the data using Data Source based on DB or UD connection.you can define new info objects and data flow which extracts the data. In DS description you can mention the Non-SAP source system tables from where you want to extract the data, after that u can mention the fields to be extracted in BW.

Arvind.

With out source system creation we have transported all the flow

Hi all,
With out source system creation in Quality we have transported all the data flow
now is there any option to map the source system to transported flow.
Regards
Kiran Kumar

Hi,
you can reimport the same TR again once the mapping is done in BW from source system.
If you have left the TR's in the import queue of BW for later import then you can reimport it again.
This will go correctly.
In qualtiy to do the mappings you will need development authorization.
Thanks
