In this step, you transfer and activate the DataSources delivered by SAP as well as partner DataSources delivered in your own namespace where applicable. After this step, for all connected BW systems, you can extract and transfer data from DataSources that have been activated and replicated into the current BW.

Activities

  1. In the Install DataSources from Business Content screen, the DataSources for the application components assigned to you are displayed in an overview tree.

    Under an application component, the RECONCILITATION node indicates that DataSources for data reconciliation with one or more Content DataSources are assigned to the application component. You use these reconciliation DataSources, that are delivered with Business COntent, to check that data loaded from other DataSources is correct.
    If DataSources that are flagged as DataSources for data reconciliation exist for the application component, this is displayed by the RECONCILIATION subnode. This node is not displayed if reconciliation DataSources do not exist for an application component.

  2. In the application component hierarchy, select the node for which you want to transfer the DataSources to the active version. Do this by placing the cursor over the node and choosing Select Subtree.

    The DataSource and subtrees positioned beneath it are selected.

  3. Choose Select Delta.

    DataSources are highlighted in yellow when the check shows differences between their active and delivered versions (for example, due to extractor changes).

  4. To analyze the differences between the active and delivered versions of a particular DataSource, select the DataSource, and choose Version Comparison. The application log that appears contains more detailed information about the two versions.
  5. To transfer DataSources from the delivered version into the active version, select the DataSources you want to transfer in the overview tree using the Select Subtree pushbutton, and choose Activate DataSources.

    The error log appears if an error occurs.

    You can also call up the log regardless of whether your transfer into the active version was successful or not, under Display Log.

    With a metadata upload, when replicating DataSources in BW, the active version of the DataSource is recognized by the BW.

Note:
When activating Business Content DataSources, transferring the SAP version overwrites the active customer version.

Further notes

In the implementation guide under Postprocessing of DataSources, you have the option to change the transferred DataSources.

Searching in the Overview Tree
You can only search for DataSources or other nodes when all nodes have been expanded.
