The SAP BW Service captures log events that track interactions between PowerCenter and SAP BW. It captures its own log events. It also captures log events when it receives the following information from the SAP BW system and the PowerCenter Integration Service:
A request from the SAP BW system to start a PowerCenter workflow.
A message from the PowerCenter Integration Service that it has successfully started a workflow to extract data from SAP BW.
A message from the PowerCenter Integration Service indicating whether the PowerCenter session failed or succeeded.
When you extract data from SAP BW, you can view SAP BW Service log events in the Administrator tool. On the Log tab, enter search criteria to find SAP BW Service log events. You can also view status of data extraction from the BW monitor.
To view log events about how the PowerCenter Integration Service processes an SAP BW workflow, view the session or workflow log.
