Hi experts
I'm currently using BW 7.0 with standard (including LO cockpit extraction) and custom extractors.
There is a need to install a component (enterprise service - level 11) in our ECC system, and I determining the steps that need to be followed in terms of the BW system.
I have found this article that is very helpful, but still have some questions
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/SAP+ECC+Systems+SP+Upgrade+and+Impact+on+SAP+BI
1) its refered that after the ECC upgrade / support package installation, datasources must be replicated and transfer rules activated
My doubt on this one is, if its required when installing this component. I have this doubt because the article refers to a support package installation and we are installing a component. Also, because the component was already installed in dev environment and this step was not necessary.. i had some issues, but none related o datasource activation.
2) if all steps are done properly (stop v3 delta jobs, stop process chains, clearing delta queues), there will be no loss of data, correct (meaning all delta will be ok). I'm concern with this, as a decison needs to me made on either keeping loading as is (assuming that no data is loss) or deleting data content and re-loading inits
Any tips on a similiar process (impacts on BW/steps to be performed after ECC component installation) will be quite helpful.
Many thanks
Joana
