Process Chains from different Source Systems

[Former Member]

We will be creating a source system connection on our quality system to a separate quality SAP ECC6 system.

Just need to confirm the following when in RSPC we will see the process chains which are from the original source and once we have built our process chains from the new source these will also be available to schedule u2013 there is nothing else that needs to be considered? Thanks

Yes. Process Chains have nothing to do with Source System. In fact you can include infopackages extracting from different source systems in the same Process Chain.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for this I will need to create the process chains fresh though for the new system. Is that correct?

If there is a transport connection with this new quality system and development than I may be able to use the existing process

chains if I carry out the correct system conversion via transport connection, is this correct?

It would prbably be a good idea to keep your process chains separate for processing from different source systems, so yes to your first question.

As far as your second question, I am a little confused. The system conversion has all to do with your extracts, not your process chains. If your development system is connected to two source systems and those source systems map to two different source systems in QA, then yes you can use your existing chains to run your extracts from both source systems. The process chains are only used on the BI system to coordinate BI activity (regardless of your source systems). Your issue is really the development of the extracts as seprate processes within the process chain.
