infosource issue

[Former Member]

Hello Guys,

I have an infosource [0GL_ACCOUNT_TEXT]and when i double click on it i see the infoobjects in the communication structure only, and not in the transfer structure/Transfer rules. How do i go about the process of loading data with this infosource?

hi Gopan,

try to activate/install from business content, rsa1->business content->right frame 'collection mode' set to 'manual...', left frame click 'object types', middle frame click 'infoobjects' and 'select objects' and choose '0gl_account' and 'transfer', click 'source system assignment' (yellow box with 'X' icon) and make your r/3 source system is marked. in right frame click 'grouping' choose 'in dataflow before', click execute, system will collect object, please wait awhile, after finished, expand the '0gl_account' and check if there is 'transfer rules', 'transfer structure' etc.

click 'install'->'install'.

before this, make sure the datasource '0gl_account_text' has been transfered from business content in r/3 (transaction rsa5).

hope this helps.

Hi Gopan,

You would need to assign the source system and data source to this infosource in order to create the transfer rules. Have you done this step?

Hi Bhanu, when i try to assign the source system { by clicking on assign datasource], after i select the R/3 system it comes up with a list of available datasources to choose from, and none of them seem to match 0GL_ACCOUNT_TEXT. What could be the problem?

Hi Gopan,

Please heck in your corresponding R/3 system to see if this datasource has been activated. Look it up in RSA6. I fyou find it, them it means that the datasource has been activated and you need to replicate the datasource in the BW system. If not, then you need to first activate it in RSA5.

After actiavtion, you need to replicate the datasource in the BW system. Post back if you need help to do this.

thanks Bhanu, the problem now is that i cannot even locate the datasource in Rsa5 or Rsa6. Under which application component can i find it please?

[former_member188975]

Hi Gopan,

You should be able to find it under FI-IO. In the RSA5 or RSA6 screen, place your cursor on the topmost node and click the Expand button (5th from left). Keeping you cursor on the topmost node, hit the Search button and put it 0GL_ACCOUNT_TEXT.

Hope this helps...

Hi Bhanu, i found the datasource in RSA6 and i replicated it. wen i try to assign a datasource, after i select the R/3 system i still cant find it in the list that comes up. do i need to go into the communication strcuture to mov the objects into the transfer structure?

[former_member188975]

Hi Gopan,

If you have replicated the datasource in the BW system, and it is nor assigned to any other InfoSource,it should come up in the list. In RSA1> Source Systems > double click on your source system > Put your cursor on the top most node in the right hand pane and then search for your datasource. Do you find it here?

[Former Member]

yes i can surely find it there but it still does not show up in the datasource list

[former_member188975]

Does it have a + or a - sign against it? + means that it has been assigned to an InfoSource. From the same place you can also assign to the InfoSource.

Hope this helps...

[Former Member]

it has a + next to it.

Hi karna,

If it is + sign that means it has been already assigned to some infosource. Check for what it is assigned , if u feel u need this datasource either u have deassign the datasource or use a generic datasource.

how do i find out what infosource it has been assigned to?

[majeed_mohammedabdul]

Hi Karna,

As Bhanu said when u goto to the source system and display all the datasources and find ur datasource , If u see + in front of it that means that it has been assigned to some infosource , u can just click on that + symbol it will take u to the infosource screen.
