Steps to Integrate with SAP Business Content

Complete the following steps to integrate with SAP business content:
  1. Prepare DataSources in SAP.
    Activate and configure each DataSource in SAP before you create a processing mapping for the DataSource.
  2. Import and configure PowerCenter objects.
    Import and configure mappings and workflows to integrate with business content. Unzip the Informatica installer
    .zip
    file, navigate to the following directory, and import the mappings and workflows:
    <Informatica Installer File>\sapsolutions\mySAP\bci
  3. Create a relational table.
    Create a relational table with the default table name BCILookupTable to handle SAP DataSources with no data.
  4. Configure and start the listener workflow.
    Configure and start the imported listener workflow.
  5. Create the processing mappings.
    Create processing mappings to select SAP DataSources, specify data extraction parameters, and create request files.
  6. Deploy request files.
    Deploy request files from the PowerCenter Client to the PowerCenter Integration Service so that you can use them when you configure sessions.
  7. Create the send request workflows.
    Create the send request workflows to request data from SAP.
  8. Create the processing workflows.
    Create the processing workflows to consume DataSource data from SAP.
  9. Schedule the processing and send request workflows.
    Stop the listener workflow and configure BCI_Scheduling_Target in the listener mapping to start the appropriate processing and send request workflows for each DataSource.
