Source system in Virtual Info provider

Hi!!
I am creating an application which is based on virtual infoprovider and which read data from website and produce data for reporting but i am confused about logical system name as cube is not executing in listcube transaction.!!!
Regds,
Pooja

hi Pooja,
Logical System name is your BW System ie BWDCLNTXXX where XXX is your client ID, for more information you can contact your basis person,
as far as listcube is concern, you have to check few thing before extracting data from website.
1. your system must be able to connect to Net.
2. check proxy configuration and port entry in Network (ur network guy helps u)
3. check RFC "Http_Get", if it works fine then your infocube configuration may be wrong.
I hope it will helps you..

Inconsistent Query Result in SEM-BCS using Virtual Info Provider

We have just upgraded to BW 7.0 and SEM-BCS 6.0. When we run an existing 3.5 BW query for BCS through the Virtual Info Provider against the basic consolidation cube, we are getting inconsistent results. Sometimes we get the correct result, and other times our results are not rolling up correctly causing an out of balance on our balance sheet query. We did not make any hierarchy changes between the query executions. Has anyone else experienced this? We cannot see the cause of the inconsistency. Everything looks good when running through RSRT DEBUG. Any help on pushing us in the right direction to solve this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,
Could you please let me know how you have resolved this issue? Thanks.

BI Statistics NW2004S Content - Virtual Info Provider 0TCT_VC01

Hi
We implemented BI NW2004S statistics for front end OLAP analysis which consists of info providers 0TCT_C01, 0TCT_C02. However, when we activated the queries, we are not seeing enough data in queries even though the info providers are loaded correctly. SAP has provided content for 0TCT_VC01 & 02 as virtual info providers which are used in multi providers -0TCT_M01 & M02 along with the base info providers mentioned above. All content queries are built on these multi providers and currently in our multi provider we have just base info providers but not virtual info providers.
Now my question is, on virtual info providers - These virtual info providers are based on DTP and am just wondering which data source I should use to maintain transformation as info provider based on DTP would require transformations to load the cube. I have used data sources 0TCT_DS01 & 02 to map transformations to base info providers 0TCT_C01 & C02 respectively.
Pls confirm on how I should use these virtual info providers as part of multi providers and which data source should I use to maintain transformation.
I am hoping that by including virtual info providers into the above multi providers, I would be able to see the data to analyze query performance during user navigations.
Appreciate your response.
Thanks

RSDDSTAT_OLAP->0TCT_DS01(data source)->InfoPackage->0TCT_C01(0TCT_MC01)->0TCT_MC01_Q*(queries)
The cube 0TCT_C01 gets filled from data source 0TCT_DS01 which is again gets data from the view RSDDSTAT_OLAP.
So whenever you run queries (3.x or 7.0) or templates (3.x or 7.0) or workbook (3.x or 7.0), this view gets filled.
So, you please schedule the releavant process chain or infopackage which will fill the cube 0TCT_DS01, then you will be able to use the queries built on this cube.These process chains are starting with 0TCT*.The installation steps and scheduling steps are very well explained in the note 934848.
P.S. SAP delivered queries are based on multicube 0TCT_MC01 (built on 0TCT_C01 and 0TCT_VC01) and not on 0TCT_C01
0TCT_VC01 Usage -
The purpose of virtual cube 0TCT_VC01 is to give delta data.
For ex, you would've scheduled the process chain for loading 0TCT_C01 every day in the mid-night. If you are running the query built on 0TCT_MC01 cube in the morning, you will miss the data from yesterday mid-night till today morning. To give this delta data, the virtul cube is used in the multi cube.
Hope it Helps

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 Creation issue in BI

Hi Everyone,
I have already created RFC Connection in BW and EC(BackGround Users are ALEREMOTE and BWREMOTE). I am able to login using Remote Login from SM59 from BW to ECC and Vice versa. After this , When I try to create a Source System, it asks me to provide the ALEREMOTE and BWREMOTE Passwords along with the Source System Name.
I provide all the details.
Then the System asks me to login as a Administrator into ECC. And Once, I login, it throws up an error RFC Connection failed.
I think I am missing some steps.Please provide your inputs.
Regards,
Samir

Hi Ananda,
Thanks for your response. I did the same. Created Background users and when Try to Create a Source System ,it prompts me to R/3 side and here it is showing as RFC Failed. Remote Logon is working. But when Icreate a source System and provide password details, it fails.
Please advice.Is there any password restrictions for Background users.I maintained it as "init123". Do we need to use Capitals. And once, we provide the initial password, do we need to change it again somewhere?
Thanks and Regards,
Samir

Transformation: Need for calling a custom function module on source system

Hi Gurus,
I need to use a custom FM residing on source system within the transformation to determine the type (e.g. posting type) of a document item. The logic is quite complex with many exceptions (many if statements) and 2 customizing & few transparent tables are in use as well in the FM.
From my point of view, there are few options for achieving the outcome:
1. Copy the FM logic 1:1 in transformation
2. Transport the FM from ERP to BW system
3. Source system delivers the info (e.g. with an extra field "posting_type")
4. Access the FM directly via RFC/BAPI
However, there are pros and cons for each of the alternatives:
*Option 1*
pros:
cons: consistency problem, need for importing customizing tables & source tables, high maintenance effort
*Option 2*
pros: better consistency compared to Option 1
cons: need for importing tables, administrative efforts
*Option 3*
pros: no logic is needed at BW side, no transformations means no impact on performance, high consistency, no administrative effort
cons: structure in source system has to be changed, impact on historical records
*Option 4*
pros: best consistency (better than Option 3 as FM might change), no administrative effort
cons: impact on performance during transformation
Could you please verify my assumptions and give suggestions on solving the problem?
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
Meng

Hi Joon,
According to me.
If Historical data amount is so high, historical data is available in BW(at PSA level or acquisition layer or corporate memory layer) and headache to load history data(because of overload on ECC due to huge amount of data) from ECC then I will suggest combination of 3 and 4 steps.
If fetching history data from ECC is not headache for you then go for step 3.
Step 3 is most common approach in BW, which is easy for implementation and support.

Ashish

Want to transfer data from 2 source systems

hi everybody ,
i want to transfer data from 2 source systems into a info cube, how can we do that and i dont want to transfer duplicate data from two source systems. like i have 1,2,3,4 records in one source system and 1,5,6,7 records in the other system.i want to transfer 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 in to the cube. can u help me to solve this problem?

Hi
The solution given by Paolo will not work 100% correct.
Even if you create ODS and with record number as key of ODS the data in ODS will be record no 1,2,3,4,5,6,7
But data of record 1 will be overwritten (first it will hold data from 1st source system and then from 2nd source system) since record number is key. Also you can not differentiate the values of data that means which data is coming from which system.
For this you need to use compouding of infoobjects. In this expample, record number should be compounded with Source system ID infoobject-0soursystem. Then your ODS will contain source system ID along with record number as keys and record 1 will not be overwritten.
Have a look at SDN threads on compounding-

Source System Logical Name change

Hello,
We are refreshing our R3Qas system with a copy of our R3Prd system. As part of this task our R3Qas logical name is changing from QASC230 to QASC200.
I am at the point in the refresh where I am beginning tasks on the existing BWQas system.
I Right Click on the source system representing the R3Qas system "QAS client 230" technical name: QASC230. I choose 'Restore' I then provide the logon information but the system it jumps to is the Old R3Qas not the new R3Qas.
I know that it is jumping based on the RFC, So I assume I can change that RFC to jump to the new system, what do you think? Also what about the Source System name an technical name, will it always be QAS Client 230 and QASC230 or can that be changed to reflect the new name of QASC200?
Thanks for your advice and assistance!
Nick

Since the BWQ system was already an existing system that was attached to the previous R3Q system, this task was essentially busy work.
The change that occured was that the existing R3Q system (Physical Name: QAS01 Logical Name: R3QASC230) was being replaced with a new R3Q system (A copy of Production was used) (Physical Name: QAS02 Logical Name: R3QASC200).
The actions that I needed to take to connect BWQ to the new R3Q follow:
1. On QAS02 visit TX SE37. and run RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT, Choose 'Single Test'. For I_BIW_LOGSYS: I provided BWP001 which corresponds to the logical name of our Production BW system. For I_OLTP_LOGSYS: I provided R3PRDC200 which corresponds to the logical name of the QAS02 system (this system). I then Click 'Execute' and 10 seconds later this step is done.
2. On QAS02 visit TX: BDLS. For the 'Old Logical System Name' provide BWP001. For the 'New Logical System Name' provide BWQ001. Ensure the 1st radio button is selected, and deselect all checkboxes. From the Program menu choose to 'Execute' in background (it took about 45 minutes). Confirm the 'Mapping System Name'.
3. Again on QAS02 visit TX: BDLS. For the 'Old Logical System Name' provide R3PRDC200. For the 'New Logical System Name' provide R3QASC200. Ensure the 1st radio button is selected, and deselect all checkboxes. From the Program menu choose to 'Execute' in background (BASIS already did this step so a message appeared to that effect)
4. On the BWQ box visit TX: BDLS. For the 'Old Logical System Name' provide R3QASC230. For the 'New Logical System Name' provide R3QASC200. Ensure the 1st radio button is selected, and deselect all checkboxes. From the Program menu choose to 'Execute' in background (it took about 45 minutes). Confirm the at the prompt and run.
5. On BWQ create new RFC's based on the old ones to point at the new QAS02 system. Modify the old ones with an X in the 'Target Host' so they do not function.
6. Open up the BWQ client in SCC4. (or perhaps try SM30 to modify the table in the next step)
7. On BWQ visit TX: SE16. Tablename: RSLOGSYSDEST. Change the 'Old' reference to the QAS box to the 'New' information. (ie: R3QASC230 became R3QASC200).
8. On BWQ visit TX: WE20. Expand 'Partner Type LS', Select 'R3QASC200', click the classification tabe, change the 'Partn.Status' from I to 'A' and save.
9. On BWQ right click on the R3 Source system and choose 'Restore' Provide the passwords that are required. When prompted to logon to the remote system use an ADMIN (BASIS) level Account. Click 'Continue' when you get the 'User exists...' prompt. Click 'Only Activate' when prompted. you will then get a termination message regarding the port description.
10. On BWQ Back at WE20: Expand 'Partner Type LS', Select R3QASC200, double click on RSRQST. Under 'Outbound Options' click the drop down for 'Reciever port' Select the 'new' correct system and 'Save'.
11. On BWQ right click on the R3 Source system and choose 'Restore' Provide the passwords that are required. When prompted to logon to the remote system use an ADMIN (BASIS) level Account. Click 'Continue' when you get the 'User exists...' prompt. You will get a prompt to Use or Check, choose 'Use'. When prompted about 'Connection cannot be used' click 'Delete'. Logon again as ADMIN account, Click 'Continue' when you get the 'User exists...' prompt. Click 'Replicate as well' when prompted. you will then get a termination message regarding the port description.
You should be all set now!

Source System create - RSAR 374 Error

Hi,
in RSA1 when deleting source system , which caused info objects/PSA tables for the particular source system deleted. Now, when creating new source system, it fails, It times out.
It stops at "write version D" and times-out . Is there anyway, it could be fixed,.
Error:
The following errors occurred in the source system: RSAR 37 4
Result of the destination check: Timeout RSAR 37 5
Thanks,
Usha

Hi Usha,
Check if the RFC connection is established between the R/3 and BW system. If not, speak to the BASIS team.

Creating MSSQL as Source System

Hi All,
I can't find any notes how to create MS SQL Server as source system in BW. Could anyone write me how to fill these fields?:
- Logical System Name
- Source System Name
- Conn. info
I will be grateful for any example of correct configuration of MSSQL InfoSource.
Regards,
Maciek

Hi Maciej,
Not much idea..I obtained the below info from SAP Help..
+The database library is made available in the SAP Service Marketplace in the SAR archives LIB_DBSL.SAR, in the patch directories, which are independent of database manufacturer.
You can access the required directory via the Software Center of the SAP Service Marketplace in the Internet, via the following address: http://service.sap.com/swcenter-main ® SAP Web AS ® Relevant SAP Web AS Release ® Binary Patches ® Relevant SAP Kernel Release ® BW Application Server Operating System ® Source-Database Management System® LIB_DBSL.SAR.
Load the file into the directory indicated by the environment variable DIR_LIBRARY.
The file LIB_DBSL.SAR forms a complete SAP kernel patch together with the database-independent DW.SAR archive. (SAP Note 19466 - Downloading SAP Kernel Patches describes how kernel patches are imported).
Next, unpack the SAR archive with the SAPCAR tool. Before doing so, refer to note 212876- The New Archiving Tool SAPCAR
We recommend you also download the latest DBSL from the SAP Service Marketplace for SAP DB databases.+

Source System - Web Service (BW 7.0)

Hi,
I need some urgent help in the following topic..
I am using a Web Service source System to load Info in an ODS .
I see that the DataSource cumulates in just one request the Information that I am pushing to the BW System... and the info stays there... it does not flow to the ODS...
How can I do to update the ODS automatically from the DataSource?
Thanks
FedeX

I found in the monitoring something like this ...
<b>the maximum wait time for this request has not yet been exceeded</b>
and
<b>Wait Until 01.03.2007 10:46:50</b>
it is possible to change that wait time? where?
Thanks and regards

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?

Info IDoc received with status 8 in BI but Data available in source system

Hello Experts,
I am loading Budget Period (attributes) into PSA in BI.
Budget Period data Loading Issue : No data available while loading. But source system ie ECC has data in that data source
Data source: 0PU_BDGTID_ATTR
This is full load.
I checked that whether I am making any mistake during data selection. I could not find any issue. Message while loading data into PSA (Yellow Traffic light)
No data available
Diagnosis
The data request was a full update.
In this case, the corresponding table in the source system does not
contain any data.
System Response
Info IDoc received with status 8.
Procedure
Check the data basis in the source system.
Already looked this thread and googled also.
Re: IDoc received with status 8.
Check points:
sm58 - NO issue
BD87 in ECC (RSINFO Idoc status: 03) -sucessful
BD87 in BI (RSINFO Idoc status : 53)
ST22 - NO issue
sm37 - Job is successful (I could see Idoc no in ECC source system in Job log)
I am not sure if I am missing any thing.
Thanks

Hi all,
I've got exactly the same issue with several extractors. I'm inialising the Master Data in a all new system, in the Quality the loads succeeded but in Prod it failed.
For instance with the basic DataSource "0FUNCT_LOC_TEXT", I've made the following test:
RS3 (R/3) - > 0 data
ST22 -> no short dump
WE05 (Idoc) - > everything is ok
I reactivated the Datasource in R/3 (RSA5) and then deleted it and replicated it in BW but the same issue occured.
Any ideas?
Thanks
