Definition / Basics
Data Warehousing The reporting, analysis, and interpretation of business data is of central importance to a company in guaranteeing its competitive edge, optimizing processes, and enabling it to react quickly and in line with the market. Company data is usually spread across several applications that are used for entering data. Analyzing this data is not only difficult because it is spread across several systems but because the data is saved in a form that is optimized for processing, not analysis. Data analysis represents additional system load which affects operative data processing. Furthermore, the data has come from heterogeneous applications and is therefore only available in heterogeneous formats which must first be standardized. The applications also only save historic data to a limited extent. This historic data can be important in analysis. Therefore separate systems are required for storing data and supporting data analysis requirements. This type of system is called a data warehouse. A data warehouse serves to integrate data from heterogeneous sources, transform, consolidate, clean up and store this data, and stage it efficiently for analysis and interpretation purposes. Flow of Data The data flow in the Data Warehouse describes which objects are needed at design time and which objects are needed at runtime to transfer data from a source to BI and cleanse, consolidate and integrate the data so that it can be used for analysis, reporting and possibly for planning. You can use any data sources that transfer the data to BI or access the source data directly, apply simple or complex cleansing and consolidating methods, and define data repositories that correspond to the requirements of your layer architecture.

The data flow begins with the transfer of data from the source system to the Persistent Staging Area (PSA) using InfoPackages. The data is stored in the PSA using tables, which are based on prior defined DataSources. After that the Data Transfer Process (DTP) transfers the data via transformation into an InfoSource and then to a Data Storage Object (DSO), which is the base for the following queries.

Persistent Staging Area (PSA) The PSA is the inbound storage area for data from the source systems in the BI system. The requested data is saved, unchanged from the source system. Request data is stored in the transfer structure format in transparent, relational database tables of the BI system in which the request data is stored in the format of the DataSource. The data format remains unchanged, meaning that no summarization or transformations take place, as is the case with InfoCubes. For further Information lock at SAP Help Info Package Before data can be processed in BI, it has to be loaded into the PSA using an InfoPackage. In the InfoPackage, you specify the selection parameters for transferring data into the PSA. DataSource In BI, the metadata description of the source data is modeled with DataSources. A DataSource is a set of fields that are used to extract data of a business unit from a source system and transfer it to the entry layer of the BI system or provide it for direct access. For further Information lock at SAP Help Data Transfer Process (DTP) You use the data transfer process (DTP) to transfer the data within BI from one persistent object to another object, in accordance with certain transformations and filters. Possible sources for the data transfer include DataSources and InfoProviders; possible targets include InfoProviders and open hub destinations. For further Information lock at SAP Help Transformation Using the transformation, data is copied from a source format to a target format in BI. The transformation process thus allows you to consolidate, cleanse, and integrate data. In the transformation, the fields of a DataSource are also assigned to the InfoObjects of the BI system. For further Information lock at SAP Help InfoSource An InfoSource is a non-persistent structure consisting of InfoObjects. You use InfoSources if you want to run two (or more) sequential transformations in the data flow, without storing the data again or if you want to assign two different DataSources to one InfoSource. If you do not have transformations that run sequentially, you can model the data flow without InfoSources. In this case, the data is written straight to the target from the source using a transformation. For further Information lock at SAP Help Info Objects InfoObjects are the smallest units of BI. They are known as business evaluation objects. You map the information in a structured form that is required for constructing InfoProviders. InfoObjects are divided in characteristics, key figures, time characteristics and technical characteristics. For further Information lock at SAP Help Info Provider InfoProviders are persistent data repositories that are used in the layer architecture of the Data Warehouse or in views on data. They can provide the data for analysis, reporting and planning. Typical InfoProviders are InfoCubes and Data Storage Objects (DSO). For further Information lock at SAP Help

Data Storage Object (DSO) A DSO serves as a storage location for consolidated and cleansed transaction data or master data on a document (atomic) level. A Data Store Object contains key fields (for example, document number/item) and data fields that can also contain character fields (for example, order status, customer) as key figures. Unlike multidimensional data storage using Info Cubes, the data in DataStore objects is stored in transparent, flat database tables. The system does not create fact tables or dimension tables. This data can be evaluated using a query. For further Information lock at SAP Help Transfer Rules When you have maintained the transfer structure and the communication structure, you use the transfer rules to determine how you want the transfer structure fields to be assigned to the communication structure InfoObjects. You can arrange for a 1:1 assignment. You can also fill InfoObjects using routines, formulas, or constants. For further Information lock at SAP Help Update Rules Update rules specify how the data (key figures, time characteristics, characteristics) is updated to data targets from the communication structure of an InfoSource. You are therefore connecting an InfoSource with a data target. For further Information lock at SAP Help

Content Activation
To be able to use the Student Lifecycle Management Business Content as delivered by SAP, it first has to be activated. A pre-requisite of this is that the source system from which you want to load the data is connected to the BW system. Only then you will be able to replicate the DataSources and to load the data. Replication of DataSources To replicate the DataSources that are delivered for Student Lifecycle Management, proceed with the steps given below: Activate the DataSources in the Source System In the Student Lifecycle Management System run transaction RSA5 and find the node 0IS_HER.

If you cant find the node you have to run transaction RSA9 (Transfer Application Components) and confirm the security check: Do you want the content application Transfer Component Hierarchy? with Yes. If you get the following window, please click on Create Request and give it a short description, hit Save and then Continue (the green check mark).

After that you should see node 0IS_HER in transaction RSA5. Choose it, mark it with F9 and activate the DataSources by hitting the Button Activate DataSources. If you get the request-window as shown above again, hit Continue (the green check mark) and in the next window too. By now the DataSources should be activated.

Replicate the DataSources in the BW System Start the BW Administrator Workbench (RSA1). In the left navigation panel, choose DataSources. Select the source system from which you want to replicate the DataSources.

Reload the entire tree containing the DataSources from this source system.

To find the DataSources for Student Lifecycle Management, navigate as follows: SAP Higher Education and Research. If you cannot find the node in the tree, make sure that you show the empty folders as well.

Right click on the entry for Higher Education and Research. Choose Replicate Metadata to replicate the DataSources. All DataSources delivered by SAP for SLCM will now be replicated. This will take a few minutes. Beware! If you right click on SAP and choose Replicate Metadata, all DataSources delivered by SAP will be replicated. This will take a long time! Be careful when you choose.

If there are popup windows asking how to create a DataSource that does not exists, confirm them with the green checkmark.

Activation of the Content To activate the Content that is delivered for Student Lifecycle Management, proceed with the steps given below: Start the BW Administrator Workbench (RSA1). In the left panel, choose BI Content.

Now choose InfoProviders by InfoAreas`and than Industry Sectors Higher Education and Research Academic Structure and Student Management. In the right panel choose Grouping and select In Dataflow Before and Aftrwds Next, choose Collection Mode and select Collect Automatically and then choose Display and select Hierarchy To install the DataStoreObjects drag them from the left to the right. The following ODS are available: o 0HE_DS01, 0HE_DS02, 0HE_DS03, 0HE_DS04, 0HE_DS05 are on 3.5 basis o 0HE_DS06, 0HE_DS07, 0HE_DS08, 0HE_DS09, 0HE_DS10 are on 7.0 basis and available with EHP 3 o 0HE_DS11 is available with EHP 4 and is also on 7.0 basis If a popup window appears, make sure that only your source system is marked. If necessary, unmark the other systems.

When activating it is useful to do it in the background. Sometimes you may get a time-out when you activate it in foreground. To activate the content choose Install Install in background If necessary create a Workbench request as shown in the source system

When activating the content, it is possible that you get an error message that a certain object is not known/active. Since a lot of objects are activated, it could be that an InfoObject has an attribute that has not been activated yet. This will result in an error since the InfoObject cannot be activated due to depending

3.5 Content Configuration


This chapter describes how to create and activate the needed items for the 3.5 content. At first, we have to create the transfer rules. Right click on a DataSource and choose Create Transfer Rules.

The DataSource and InfoSource assignment can be found in the BW Content. By confirming this window the assignment will be used. A customer can also define his own InfoSource assignment by creating a new one and selecting the Other option. Confirm this window and in the next screen choose Install in Background to install and activate the transfer rule.

After that, the transfer rule is installed and active. Go back to the DataSource tree and refresh it. If the InfoPackage is not created, right click on a DataSource and choose Create InfoPackage. Give it a name and confirm it. For some DataSources delta loading is available for that look at the appendix.

If the BW Content has been activated correctly, the update rules should be available already. After the activation of the Transfer Rule, refresh the tree and the Update Rule should be listed. If it is not, check the installation of the BW Content or create the rule manually. Update Rules are required for Student, Study, Specializations, Registrations and Admissions. An overview about the mapping of the fields in the transfer rules is in the appendix.

7.0 Content Configuration


This is an example procedure to create the needed items. All necessary items for each DataSource are listed in the appropriate section in this guideline. Now it is time to create the transformations, the data transfer process (DTP) and the InfoPackage. These things are required to transfer the data from the source to the BW. Activate DataSources Go to the Administrator Workbench (RSA1) and open the DataSources for Student Lifecycle Management (Modelling DataSources SAP Higher Education & Research). All replicated DataSources should be displayed there. Make sure that all DataSources are activated, because they can not be used if they are not active. To activate one, double click on it, choose Display/Change and then Activate.

Transformation You have to create a transformation at first. Right click on a DataSource and choose Create Transformation. In the next step choose the target as it is mentioned in the appendix for each DataSource (e.g. the DataSource 0HE_SLC_PCP_1 is assigned to the InfoSource 0HE_SLC_PCP_1). Confirm this.
Note: The use of an InfoSources for transactional data is not required. You can transfer directly from the DataSource to the DSO, but you have to do the mapping by your own. There is no template available. With the use of an InfoSource two transformations are required. The use of an InfoSource is reasonable if you have more than one DataSource. For further information look at SAP Help

After that you have to map the fields. Look at the appropriate section in the appendix in section B for each DataSource. To map the fields, click on one field and move the cursor to the corresponding filed on the right and release. To delete an arrow, right-click on the arrow and select delete. If you finished mapping, activate this transformation by hitting Activate. Now refresh your entire tree by hitting the refresh button.

InfoPackage At last we have to create the InfoPackage which is needed to start the ETL process. Right click on the DataSource and choose Create InfoPackage. Give it a name and confirm.

When creating InfoPackages for the transactional data you have to option to use the delta mechanism. The advantage is that once an initial load has been done, only changed records will be loaded to BW. The DataSources which have this functionality will be mentioned in the appropriate section in this guideline for the DataSource. Change it only form Full Update to Initialize Delta Process if it is mentioned in the DataSource section in the guideline.

Now hit the Save to save the InfoPackage. Refresh your tree. Your DataSource should look like this.

Data Loading
There are two ways to load the date. The first one is the manual execution of all InfoPackages and DTPs every time you want to load the data into the data warehouse. The second way is to build up a process chain which will do the same as we did in the first way, but the advantage is that we have to start the process chain and the rest will be done automatically. The second advantage is that we can schedule this process chain. But building a process chain is a big one time work which needs a little bit of time. Manual data load 3.5 Content After creating all necessary items for each DataSources it is now time to load the data. You can do this during the creation of the InfoPackage or at the end. To load the data double-click on the InfoPackage of a DataSource and choose the tab Schedule and then Start. The data in the DataStore Objects has to be activated. For this choose the DataStore Object and right click on it, then choose Activate Data. This step is necessary for Admission, Registration, Specialization, Student and Study. 7.0 Content After creating all necessary items for each DataSources it is now time to load the data. You can do this during the creation of the InfoPackage or at the end. To load the data double-click on the InfoPackage and choose the tab Schedule and hit the Start Button. Once the loading is finished you have to start the data transfer process (DTP) (this is valid for all objects). Double-click on a DTP and hit Execute.

If this is finished, you might have to activate the data. This can be done via the context menu on the DSO (can be found under the DTP). This step is necessary for Module Booking, Module Offering, Program Completions, Stage Completion, Program Type Progression and Performance Indices.

Process chain Building a process chain To build up a process chain go to transaction RSPC.

To create a new process chain click Create. In the following popup window you have to enter a technical name and a description for your process chain.

The technical name can be as long as up to 20 characters. For the start of the technical name beware of the name convention (e.g. it has to start with Z). After confirming this window a new popup window will appear. You are asked to define a start variant.

Thats the first step in your process chain! Every process chain does have one and only one starting step. A new step of type Start process will be added. To be able to define unique start processes for your chain you have to create a start variant. So press on the create button, a new pop-up appears:

Here you define a technical name for the start variant and a description. In the next step you define when the process chain will start. You can choose from direct scheduling or start using meta chain or API. With direct scheduling you can define either to start immediately upon activating and scheduling or to a defined point in time like you know it from the job scheduling in any SAP system. With start using meta chain or API you are able to start this chain as a sub chain or from an external application via a function module RSPC_API_CHAIN_START. Hit the Save button and go one step back to the previous window. Your window should look like this.

If you have defined the starting point for your chain you can add now a loading step for loading master data or transaction data. For all of this data choose Execute infopackage from all available process types. See picture below:

You can easily move this step with drag & drop from the left on the right side into your design window. A new pop-up window appears. Here you can choose which InfoPackage you want to use. You cant create a new one here. Press F4 help and a new window will pop-up with all available InfoPackages sorted by use. At the top are InfoPackages used in this process chain, followed by all other available InfoPackages not used in the process chain. Choose one and confirm. This step will now be added to your process chain. Your chain should look like this:

To connect these to items you can right click on the start and choose Connect with Load Data and then the InfoPackage you want to be the successor. The other way is to click on the starting point and keep the mouse pressed. Move down to the next step and resale the mouse. A new connection is created. In the next step drag and drop a DTP in your process chain. In the following window choose the right DTP and confirm. Now connect the InfoPackage and the DTP. You now get a new popup window.

Here you can choose if this successor step shall be executed only if the predecessor was successful, ended with errors or anyhow if successful or not always execute. With this connection type you can control the behaviour of your chain in case of errors. Whether a step ends successful or with errors is defined in the process step itself. To see the settings for each step you can go to Settings -> Maintain Process Types in the menu. In this window you see all defined (standard and custom) process types. Your process chain can now look like this.

You can now add all other steps necessary. By default the process chain itself suggests successors and predecessors for each step. For loading transaction data with an InfoPackage it usually adds steps for deleting and creating indexes on a cube. You can switch off this behaviour in the menu under Settings -> Default Chains". In the pop-up choose Do not suggest Process and confirm. If you finished your process chain you can check your chain with menu Goto -> Checking View or press the button Check. Your chain will now be checked if all steps are connected, have at least one predecessor. Logical errors are not detected. Thats your responsibility. If the chain checking returns with warnings or is ok you can activate it. If check carries out errors you have to remove the errors first. After successful checking you can activate your process chain. You can activate your chain with menu Process chain -> Activate or press on the activation button in the symbol bar. You will find your new chain under application component "Not assigned". To assign it to another application component you have to change it. Choose "application component" button in change mode of the chain, save and reactivate it. Then refresh the application component hierarchy. Your process chain will now appear under new application component.

Scheduling the process chain After successful activation you can now schedule your chain. Press button Schedule or menu Execution -> schedule. The chain will be scheduled as background job. You can see it in SM37. You will find a job named BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER. Unfortunately every process chain is scheduled with a job with this name. In the job variant you will find which process chain will be executed. During execution the steps defined in RSPCPROCESSCHAIN will be executed one after each other. The execution of the next event is triggered by events defined in the table. You can watch SM37 for new executed jobs starting with BI_ or look at the protocol view of the chain. If there is an error while scheduling the process chain, double click at the start of the chain and select Change Selections. In the following window choose Immediate if you want to start the process chain right now. Hit the Save Button and go back to the process chain view. You can check chain execution for errors in the protocol or process chain log. Choose in the menu Go to -> Log View. You will be asked for the time interval for which you want to check chain execution. Possible options are today, yesterday and today, one week ago, this month and last month or free date. For us option today is sufficient. Here is an example of another chain that ended incorrect:

On the left side you see when the chain was executed and how it ended. On the right side you see for every step if it ended successfully or not. As you can see the two first steps were successful and step Load Data of an InfoPackage failed. You can now check the reason with context menu display messages or Process monitor. Display messages displays the job log of the background job and messages created by the request monitor. With Process monitor you get to the request monitor and see detailed information why the loading failed.

Student The Student objects needs special handling. The data should be loaded from the DataSource, to the InfoSource, to the DataStore Object (ODS) and then in the InfoObject (instead of from DataSource, to the InfoSource and directly in the InfoObject). The reason is that if you change the Student Data more than once during the days, the complete Student image is loaded into BW multiple times. To ensure data consistency, a DataStore Object is used to consolidate this data. The same holds for the Study data. Assign the DataSource 0HE_STUDNT_ATTR to the InfoSource 0HE_SLC_ST_1.

Default academic session When an admission or registration record has no academic session maintained (this can be the case for a full year registration), it is useful to replace this empty session with a different value so that you can report on it in BW. To make a query stating: Show all admission where the session is empty is difficult to make. Therefore you can use your own defined number to derive this records. The table T7PIQSWITCH has been extended with the values GROUP BW and SETTING DEFSESSION. When you maintain a value for this switch via the view V_T7PIQSWITCHVAL, this is the value that will be loaded into BW. If you dont maintain it, the session will remain empty. Example: Student registers for the whole year 2005. DEFSESSION in V_T7PIQSWITCHVAL = 99. The InfoObject 0HE_YRSES will have the value 2005099 in BW.

How to extract customer fields If you want to extract extra/missing fields for a given extractor, a BAdI exists that you can use for this. As example we will enhance the extractor for Module Booking. It currently has only one Program for the Program Usage. In case there is a need to have more than one Program there, following needs to be done. Enhance the DataSource Start transaction RSA6 and mark the DataSource you want to extend. Choose Enhance Extraction Structure.

Enter a name for the DDIC structure you want to create.

In the following screen, define the fields you want to extract additionally and activate the structure.

Activate the structure. The DataSource has now been enhanced with the customer field.

Implement the BAdI RSU5_SAPI_BADI Start transaction SE18. Enter the BAdI name and choose from the pull-down menu Implementation Create:

Give a name for the implementation.

The method DATA_TRANSFORM should be implemented in case you want to extract extra fields for master and transactional data. This BAdI is called after the load of the data has been done. The table C_T_DATA contains all the extracted data. Via a loop over that table you can easily enhance the data. Here is the example coding for the implementation:

Modify the DSO object 0HE_DS06 and the InfoSource 0HE_SLC_MBK_1 The last step is to modify the DataStore Object, the InfoSource and the Transformations. Create an InfoObject (RSD1) ZHE_PRUS2 (Program Usage 2). Via RSA1, goto the InfoProvider view, look up 0HE_DS06 and change it. Add the ZHE_PRUS2 as a data field. Activate. Goto the InfoSource view. Look up the InfoSource 0HE_SLC_MBK_1 and add the field ZHE_PRUS2 to the InfoSource. Activate. Goto the DataSource view and replicate the DataSource 0HE_SLC_MBK_1. Activate it. Goto the InfoProvider view. You might have to delete the existing Transformation. You can create them with the mapping as given previously. Additionally, map your created field. That should be it. Unit of Measurement Make sure that if you extract data that uses the unit CRH that this is available in the BW system. If not, you might get errors when processing the DTP.
