Infosources are no more mandatory with BI 7.0, below is the link to scenarios where we use infosources:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/44/0243dd8ae1603ae10000000a1553f6/content.htm

Below are the basic steps which we follow in any BI 2004S system:

1)Create datasource. Here u can set/check the Soucre System fields.

2)Create Transformation for that datasource. (no more update rules/transfer rules)

2.1) While creating transformation for DS it will ask you for data target name, so just assign where u want to update ur data.

DataSource -> Transformation -> Data Target

Now if you want to load data into data target from Source System Datasource:

1) Create infopackage for that data source. If you are creating infopackage for new datasources, it will only allow you update upto PSA, all other options u can see as disabled.

2)Now Create DTP (Data Transfer Process) for that data source.

3) NOw schdule the Infopackage, once the data is loaded to PSA, you can execute your DTP which will load data to data target.

If you are loading data from one one data target to other, no need to use PSA, you can directly execute DTP in that case.

Data Source -> Transformation (IP/DTP) -> Data Target1 -> DTP ->Data Target 2

Use the below link for detailed example:

You can create data sources for File system/UD Connect/DB/Web Services.

And you can edit data sources of SAP Systems.

If u r using file system, first go and create source system for file system. Go to Source-system ->right click->select create.

Once you r finsihed with creating source system, go to data soucre tab.

on top left corner of data soucres section u can see option of selecting source system. click on that and select you file system. No right click on ur file system from data source section, and create your own data source.

for info check this link:
