Loading Data into SAP BI Overview

Loading Data into SAP BI Overview

To load data into SAP BI, configure both the PowerCenter and the SAP BI systems.
To load data to versions earlier than 7.3 using InfoSources, complete the following steps:
  1. Configure a workflow to load data into SAP BI.
  2. Configure an InfoPackage that associates the PowerCenter session with the InfoSource.
  3. Configure a process chain to load the data.
To load data to version 7.3 using 7.x DataSources, complete the following steps:
  1. Configure a workflow to load data into SAP BI.
  2. Configure an InfoPackage that associates the PowerCenter session with the 7.x DataSource. The InfoPackage loads the data to the PSA.
  3. Create a DTP.
  4. Configure a process chain linking the InfoPackage and DTP to transfer the data from the PSA to an SAP target.
When the SAP BW Service starts, it communicates with the SAP BI system to register as a server. The SAP BW Service waits for a request from the SAP BI system to start the workflow. When the InfoPackage starts, the SAP BI system communicates with the registered SAP BW Service. The SAP BI system sends the workflow name that the PowerCenter Integration Service schedules to run. The SAP BW Service reads information about the workflow and sends a request to the PowerCenter Integration Service to run the workflow. The PowerCenter Integration Service validates the workflow name in the repository and the workflow name in the InfoPackage. The PowerCenter Integration Service runs the session and loads the data into SAP BI.
You can configure partitions for a session and sessions for workflow recovery. View log events to help you track the interactions between PowerCenter and SAP BI.
