Transferring Business Content DataSources IN BW

Now, i'm practicing transfering bc datasource following best practice, but i encount some problems .
1. the system prompt me that "Request TRNK900700 (IDADMIN) belongs to a different client" when i transfer datasource 2LIS_11_VAITM. i never created the request TRNK900700 , which is default ,so i ask why defaut request is TRNK900700 ,and which blongs to a different client, what mechanism behind which(i'm a fresher)?
2. afterward ,i selected another request self-created ,the system prompt me that "2LIS_11_VAITM is locked in request/task TRNK900701", what logical inside it?
in a word ,with articulateness and simpleness, which master could make me understand systematicly request mechaniasm in sap! or offer me some infomation,
thank a lot in advance!

Hi!
requests are part of Transport system and are used to manage the changes in the system. That means if you change someting in your system normally we need to change some other depedencies in other systems as well. for example after making the changes in the developement system you want to make changes in the Qulatiy management sytems and afterwards in producion.
so notmally we assign them packages which can later be transported to the intended destinations. So when you activate a datasource( a change) this change has may need to take place in other systems as well. so SAP system ask you to select the right package and request which has intended destinations. If you want this change to takeplace only inthe local system and no where else you can delcare it as local object.
here is a help link to changemmanagement and transport system help

The building block CRM Lead Analysis describes the all the required activities to analyze the Marketing Lead Analysis data from SAP CRM in SAP Business Information Warehouse.
The analysis is carried out with the following queries of the InfoCube 0MKTG_C01 CRM - Lead Management (SAP BW Business Content).
The Lead Management InfoCube contains all the characteristics and data used for the administration of leads. This InfoCube enables you to execute the following standard queries available in SAP BW:
1.     Channel Analysis: This query is used to determine the best channels by which business partners are contacted in the context of a marketing campaign. Following each marketing campaign, the lead manager can compare the success of a given channel to those of others.
2.     Efficiency Reporting: This query is used to analyze the efficiency with which leads are qualified. By navigating to the sales organizations and the responsible employees for the leads, it is possible to assess how efficiently lead teams are working and to identify areas for improvement.
3.     Historical Evaluation: Use to help analyze and compare leads over different intervals (comparison of different quarters or years for example) to see if general characteristics in the processing of leads can be identified for these periods.
4.     Lost Leads: Provides an overview of the number of lost leads in a particular period and the reasons (implemented as a navigation characteristic) for the loss of the leads. This query is used to analyze the main reasons why leads might be lost, with a view to developing new strategies for overcoming these weaknesses.
5.     Channel Mgmt.: Top-n Lost Leads (Current Year): In a Channel Manager Portal, this query provides an analysis of the leads lost by a Channel Manager over the past 12 months. Channel Managers can also view the leads lost by their Channel Partners. In a Partner Portal, this query shows the top-n unsuccessful leads distributed by a Channel Manager to a Channel Partner. Partner Manager can see the lost leads of the Partner Employees over the year. Partner Employee can view his lost leads over the year.........
Before starting activities in this building block, you need to perform or check the following steps:

Please advise,
Ronit.
(Points shall be assigned)

Hi Ronit,
none of these datasources mentioned below require downtime.
You can go ahead and load data online and also no table filling is required.

Where to find info on 4.71 Business Content (datasources mostly)

Our R/3 system is still at version 4.71, and we likely won't be upgrading soon. I've tried looking online for standard BW business content (datasources), but all I seem to find require a higher version of the R/3 system.
Our BW system is on 7.0, however it appears much of the 7.0 content can't be used with our current R/3 version. Is there someplace on help.sap.com, or elsewhere, that would have content for 4.71?
Thanks
Michael

Business content datasource enhancement

Hi Experts,
I am new to HR.
We are implementing HR modules Personnel development and Personnel administration, while I was looking into business content extractors 0HR_PA_0 and OHR_PA_1, I found that there were only few fields in the extract structure but there were many fields in the cube.Do we need to enhance the datasources? how it works?. If anybody did the enhancement to these datasources, please give me the information with examples.
Anita

No, it is no necesary to enhance standard data sources. Those datasources extract, basically employee and date. Most infoobjects in cube are calculated from 0PERSON and 0EMPLOYEE attributes, having in count the date and employed extracted, because most in HR is time dependent.
Assign point is usefull

Reinstallation of Business Content DataSource in SAP R/3

Hi All,
For one of the BCT (busines content) DataSource 2LIS_04_P_MATNR, we notice in our system that the Delta process has been changed from 'ABR' in the delivered version to 'D' in the active version due to which we are not able to have delta loads from this DataSource into an ODS.
We would like to change this back to the BCT delivered version, i.e. revert to the delta process 'ABR'. After we compare the active version with the delivered version in RSA5 the only difference is in the delta process and some field descriptions. Does anyone have any information on:
1. How we can reinstall the BCT provided DataSource?
2. How much time would this take?
3. Would it impact the current delta process whereby this DataSource is feeding various InfoCubes?
4. Would we need a reinitalization of delta for the current InfoCubes that this DataSource is feeding?
Appreciate your inputs.
Thanks,
-Rakhi

Hi Ashwin,
I was looking through many documents in search of answers to my questions so I do not remember which one I had looked at.
But, I guess I understood what I read incorrectly. I now manually changed the ROOSOURCE setting for delta process in the development system to 'D' (here the active and delivered version were 'ABR') and then did a 'Transfer DataSource', it changed the ROOSOURCE entry back to ABR!
So I guess you were right, I will go ahead with this approach.
Many Thanks for your help...you get my points
BTW, how does one uninstall the BCT DataSource in SAP R/3?
Cheers,
-Rakhi

Inactive Business Content DataSources in BW DEV

Dear all.
I have activated a few FI Datasources in R3 DEV by "transfer dtasources" and checked them in RSA6. RSA3 also shows records in them. Later, when replicated them in BW DEV, the datasources look "yellow" meaning in modified version.
I know that there is a transaction where we can change the status from modified to active in BW. If anyone knows please share.
OR
if there is any other reason for this problem ... please share your experience.
In which server do i have to make changes (R3 DEV or BW DEV)
Regards.

Installation of Datasource from Business content

Hi Friends,
While Installing Datasource from Business content in SAP R/3 encounter with following error message. Can some one guide me how to transfer the hierarchy with Business Content. Appreciate your help in resolving this problem.
Application component FI-GL of DataSource 0FI_TX_4 does not exist
Message no. R8418
Diagnosis
You tried to assign a DataSource to the application component FI-GL. This application component is, however, not entered in the RODSAPPL table as an application component.
System Response
The DataSource is saved, but is not visible in BW under the node NODESNOTCONNECTED.
Procedure
You do not have the option yet to transfer the application component hierarchy from the Content.
You transfer the hierarchy with Business Content.
Thanks & Best regards
Pravin

Sorry if a year has gone by.
This is because you didn't heve the Application Component Hierarchy installed in BW itself. Use rsa6 to do this, in the BW system (not the other source system. Be careful if you have already somehting there, because it will override the hierarchy with the Business Content hierarchy.
If you need to transport the active hierarchy, and not reinstall all the Business Content Datasources, the object is :
R3TR DSAA APCO_MERGED
So, create a workbench transport, and add the above object.

Missing datasources when installing Business Content

Hi All
We have a requirement for a number of SBC infoproviders (BI7/ECC6) which are new to us.
The majority we have installed successfully but we are having problems with 0SLL_C01 / C02 and C03 which relate to Customs and 0BVTSD02 which is a Telephones Sales Acitivity DSO from the Beverage Industries area.
We have 'successfully' installed all the data flows down to the infosource level but none of the datasources were installed.
On re-checking in our source system RSA5/RSA6 we realised there were no datasources available for these infosources.
How do you add business content datasources to your source system so they are available? or have we missed a process?
Thanks
Jerry

Hi Jerry,
The Datasource you are talking about is related to release of SAP GTS 3.0 pack.
So please check with you basis team whether they have installed this plug-in in your source system.
If these release /plug-in are not installed in your sourcce system you wont be able to finf it in the RSA5/RSA6.
Thanks and Regards

Problem with Business Content install in ECC5 IDES

Hi,
I am having tough time installing business content.
After installing ECC5 IDES, I am trying to install Business Content in BW ( Client 800).
In SBIW, (under Business Content DataSources), I did Transfer Application Component Hierarchy.
Then I transfered few DataSiurces ( 0MATERIAL_ATTR)
Then in BW, I did "Replicate Data Sources". I see all the Datasources in "Data Source Overview"
But When I try to install Business Conetent ( rsa1>> Business Content >> Select Object Types >> InfoObjects>> Select Objects>> Double click ), I couldn't find any InfoObjects from source system. I tried the same for InfoCubes as well..
Am I missing anything?? I appreciate your help.
Thanks
Samba

ECC will have content for 'source system' ie datasource and extractors. On your BW system you need to have the business content add on available before you can see such objects there (infoobjects, cubes).
BW system (whether in the same IDES or another system) needs to have this BW Content add-on. It is one additional step, just having the BW system (without this addon) will not give you what you are looking for.
BW content add-on is typically one set of transport files, installed using SAINT transaction. My guess is your system doesn't have it.

How to install the Business Content Cube 0PP_C02

Hello,
Can you please explain me how to install the Business Content Cube 0PP_C02 .
What are the nesessary steps involved in this process. How this Standard Cube is available in
AWB -> Modeling.
What are the nesessary steps involved in the R/3 side.
CAn you please help me in this.
Thanks alot.
Regards,
Anitha

Hi anitha
TRy this
To transfer and activate a DataSource delivered by SAP with Business Content, in transaction SBIW in the source system choose Business Information Warehouse à Business Content DataSources or Activating SAP Business Content àTransfer Business Content DataSources.
The following figure displays the DataSources in an overview according to the application component.
       2.      Select the nodes in the application component hierarchy for which you want to transfer DataSources into the active version. Do so by positioning the cursor on the node and choosing Highlight Subtree.
The DataSources lying under the subtree and other subtrees are selected.
       3.      To check for differences between the active and delivery versions of the DataSources, choose Select Delta.
DataSources for which differences were found in the check (for example, due to changes to the extractor) are highlighted in yellow.
       4.      To analyze the differences between active and delivered versions of a particular DataSource, select the DataSource and choose Version Comparison. The application log contains further information regarding the version comparison.
       5.      To transfer a DataSource from the delivery version into the active version, select it in the overview tree using the button Highlight Subtree and choose Transfer DataSources.
If an error occurs, the error log appears.
Regardless of whether data has been successfully transferred into the active version, you can call the log by choosing Display Log.
       6.      To provide the active version of the DataSource in the connected BI systems and to enable data extraction and transfer, replicate the DataSource(s) with a metadata upload to the BI system.
and in RSA1 in businuess content search ur required cube and select all the req fielsds in the next colums and select before and after is a must..in the selection field..
this will solve ur issue..

How to find the right primary key for DSO from Business Content

According to best practice design, it is reccomended to make a DSO where all fields from Business COntent Datasources are transferred.
But, how to find the right primary indeks ?
Any good suggestions ?
For many of the Business Content dataflows there are not DSOs present, so ther e is no tip to get from the dokumentations as gfar as I have found.
best Regards
Ingrid

Hi Ingrid,
Your question will be perfect in case if you are going for a Custom cube.
You will not have any problem when you create a Datasource in R/3 level even if it is been built on a single table or on view.
Only point that you want to know how to design my Key fields in ODS.
This will be purely depends at what level that you want to bring the data.
Egg:-
If you run the data source in RSA3 and check for Each GL if you have 10 liine items and you want all the 10 line items to be transfered to BW.
In this case you need to check what is the unique combination of fields that is making this lineitems to exists as 10.then include all those fields into Your ODS Key Fields.
This way you can have 10 records for that perticular GL in both sides, by which u will make sure that the data is been completely transfered.
If in case if you clude your own Key fields then you will get the correct Total in report for each GL but you can't see all those 10 line items.
For any case you need to figureout how many records that you want to take into BW based on that check the fields that makes it unique and then add them to ODS Keyfields that will solve your requirement.
I think this will clear your doubt.
Best Regards,
VNK.

Hi Sridhar,
In the main menu of the SAP Business Information Warehouse select BW Administration ->Administrator Workbench.
Select the Business Content function area using the corresponding pushbutton in the left-hand navigation window or by Jump -> Install Business Content
With the pushbutton Navigation Window On/Off on the application toolbar in the Administrator Workbench, you can show or hide the left-hand navigation window. We assume that the navigation window remains hidden in the following section.
If you want to assign source systems, select Assignment Source System. The Select Source System as Default dialog window appears.
Select one or more source systems by setting the corresponding indicators in the Default Assignment column.
The assignment of source systems is only relevant for transfer rules, file DataSources and InfoPackages. If there is more than one source system, only those objects assigned to the specified source system are collected for the transfer. Objects that have not been assigned to the specified source systems are ignored.
If you do not select a source system, all source systems are automatically assigned.
You can subsequently change the selection you made using Source System Assignment .
Change the required settings in the following selection list:
Grouping
Choose the objects that you want the system to consider. The groupings summarize all the objects of an area.
Grouping
Information
Only necessary objects (standard setting)
Only those objects that are really necessary for the action, that is, the transport of the selected objects, are taken into account (minimal selection).
In data flow before
All objects are collected that submit data to a collected object.
In data flow after
All objects are collected that obtain data from a collected object.
In data flow before and after
All objects are collected that both submit and collect data.
If you change the default setting ( only necessary objects), the new setting will be used as a standard for the user.
Collection Mode
Select how you want to collect the objects:
Collection Mode
Information
automatic collection (standard setting).
The data is collected directly when the objects are selected.
Start manual collection
The data is only collected when you select Collect dependent objects.
Select an Object Type you want to transfer.
You have various selection options in the navigation window in the Business Content function area of the Administrator Workbench.
When you select an object type, the arrangement and selection of the existing objects are displayed in the tree structure of the central screen area as below:
Object Type in the Administrator Workbench Navigation Window.
Display objects in the tree structure in the central screen area.
Data targets by InfoAreas
List of InfoCubes and ODS objects by InfoAreas.
InfoObjects by application components.
List of objects by InfoObject catalog and by InfoAreas
InfoSources by application components.
List of InfoSources for master data and transaction data.
Roles
List of the standard and branch roles.
Object Types
List of objects by type (InfoArea, application, InfoObject catalog, role, workbook, query element, InfoSet query, Crystal Reports template, Web template, Web item, saved query view, MultiProvider, InfoCube, InfoObject, InfoSet, Classic InfoSet, ODS object, update rules, InfoSource transaction data, transfer rules, source system, InfoPackage group, InfoPackage, process chain, Reporting Agent, report/report interface, currency conversion type
Objects in BW Patch
List of installed BW patches including list of objects newly delivered or re-delivered with the respective patch.
Package
List of packages in which there are SAP objects.
Select the object(s) you want to transfer in the central screen area and transfer them into the right-hand Collected Objects screen area by drag and drop.
Using Search for Object, you can also search for objects by a string (for example, 0CUST) or by pattern (for example, 0CUST_*B).
You can display a value help for every object type: By double clicking on Select Objects in the tree structure of the corresponding object type, the screen Value Help for Metadata appears. Select the required objects. Choose Transfer selections.
You can only use Business Content DataSources of a source system for transferring data in BW, when you have transferred these in their active forms and then copied them into the BW system.
The system displays the selected object(s) and all dependent objects in the Collected Objects screen area. To reduce the time taken to access the objects when wanting to use them again, the collected objects are stored by default in the Repository Cache.
When transferring the objects to the Collected Objects screen area, the objects are added at the same time to the tree structure of the corresponding object type in the central screen area and are saved for the respective user. This personal object list is available every time the program is restarted.
To remove objects from the personal list, select the object in question and choose Remove Object from Display via the context menu or via .
Objects that are listed in several tree structures are only displayed as changeable the first time they appear. Each time they are listed again, they are highlighted in gray and are not ready for input.
Check the following columns in the Collected Objects screen area:
The following Business Content objects are highlighted in the Transfer column by default:
Objects transferred for the first time
Objects delivered again in a new version from Business Content.
When the SAP delivery version and the active version can be compared, a check box is shown in the column Compare (X) or Copy.
There is a check mark in this checkbox by default. In this case, your version is compared with the new SAP delivery version and complimented.
If you remove the indicator then the new SAP delivery version is copied in its entirety.
Date symbol: The object is already available in an active version. However, the active version belongs to an older Content Release. We recommend that you adopt the new version
Gray Selection : There is an active version in the system, but the object status is given as inactive. The object has to be subsequently edited.
In the Active Version Available column, there are the following display options:
Indicator
Meaning
No Indicator
The object is not available in an active version.
The object is available in an active version. You can decide whether to retain this version or adopt again.
Change the required settings in the following selection list :
Transfer Type
Information
Simulate transfer
A test is made to see if errors are likely to occur during the transfer. The most important objects can be checked in the simulation. However, this does not include all dependent objects Therefore, only use the simulation as an orientation help to be able to recognize errors and remove them.
Transfer
The selected objects are transferred immediately.
Transfer in background
The selected objects are transferred in the background.
Transfer and transport
The selected objects are transferred immediately and then written to a transport request in the connection.
We recommend Transfer in the Background, because transferring a large number of objects and especially changing already active objects can take up a lot of time.
You can find out if errors have occurred during the installation of Business Content from a log, which you can request using the Log pushbutton. Repair the errors in the respective maintenance transaction. Try to transfer the Business Content again.
Hope this Helps.
Thanks

PlzzHow can we check the version of Business Content in ECC 5.0 version??

Hello Experts,
Plz tell me.. How could we check the version of the business content installed for ECC 5.0? I tried to search for the same in the forum but I couldnt.. plz let me know as I doubt that the business content is not properly installed for ECC 5.0 in my PC. and also I see only Technical content for Object Types under Business Content in AWB.
I always thank people awarding points!!

Hi Ajay, Thanks for the Info regarding PI...
I am using my ECC 5.0 as BW system as it got BW 3.5.. and I am really trying to see the Business Content Cubes like 0PUR_C01,0PUR_C04 etc... and in RSA1>Business Content> Object Types I could see only the Technical Content cubes..(not able to see the SD,MM..etc related cubes)...
And yeah I have R/3 PI installed with 2004_1_490 Version.. and so I could see all the Business Content DataSources in the source system...
Is there one more PI for BW?? or the same as above??
Plz through the light..!

How to change Selection Criteria for a Business Content Data Source

Hi Experts
I am extracting data using 0CO_OM_CCA_9 Datasource. I would like to be able to select a range of Company Code (BUKRS) to pull in, but I cannot find a way to make certain fields available as selection criteria. When I go into "Change DataSource", I can unselect fields, and even select certain fields, but the option for most is grayed out.
How can I make this field available as selection criteria in Infopackage?
Thanks for the help.

Its not that simple to enable a new selection for a Business Content Datasource, if its not already provided by SAP. Enabling new fields for selection should be accompanied by corresponding extractor code changes to process those field selections and use those selections throughout the extraction process.
Solution for your problem would be create a custom extractor with all the logic of standard extractor (function module BWOMD_GET_CTRCSTA1 for 0CO_OM_CCA_9) and extra logic to process the new fields for selection.
Hope it helps!
