Introduction


This document contains the Configuration steps which are to be performed after installing SAP BW system.

Step1: Maintain the logical Systems


After installation, login to the 000 client and add the logical system entry.

Transaction BD54: Add all Logical systems which are in use

Step2: Defining Client in transaction code SCC4 or use below path to configure client

It will take you to below screen

Create new entries

  • Enter client number, name, logical system name, std currency, client role.

           For development system selects customizing

Changes and transports for client-specific objects

           For development system: “select Automatic recording of changes”

           For Quality/Production system: “No changes allowed”

Cross-client Object changes

           For development system: Changes to repository and cross-client Customizing allowed.

After creating the standard client, add the parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar in the instance profile and restart the system for the parameter to take effect. After the restart, you will be able to login to the standard client using the sap* user id   with the standard password.

Perform a client copy from 000 client to the standard client which you have created

T-code SCCL.

Schedule a background job to by giving the above input values.

Once the client copy is completed, perform a kernel upgrade to the latest level and then support pack upgrade.

Step3: RSADMINC (Customizing Table General BW) table configuration

Update the Table with below values:

INFOIDOCFRQ update with the value 10

IDOCPACKSIZE update with the value 30000

PSAPARTSIZE update with the value 1000000      

File name: BW_OLAP_CACHE

File name span: BW_OLAP_CACHE_SPAN

UOM_BUFF_SIZE: 500

SPLT_QRY_TAB_THR: 50

SPLT_DM_TAB_THR: 20

ORA_PARALLEL_DEG: 4

TMPLID_ANALYZER: ANALYSIS_PATTERN_SPECIAL

RSER_TMPL_ID: 0REPORT_DEFAULT_SPECIAL

This table should have updated with User in source system for ALE communication – ALEREMOTE

Step4: ALEREMOTE settings for Background users

Set ALEREMOTE as the default setting for background users (table entry RSADMINA)

Step5:
Activating the Software Component SAP_BW in the CVERS_ACT Table

You can use Function module "RS_SET_ACTIVE_COMPONENT_FLAG" in SE37 to set flag I_ACTIVE_FLAG = 'X'

Step6: Preparing the BW System

Go to transaction code RSA1:

Start the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1). When starting for the first time, the ‘myself source system’ is created automatically and table RSLOGSYSDEST is modified.


Step7: Activate Technical Content

When starting the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1) for the first time, the content is activated automatically.

Step8: Set the BW Transport System as Default

Field TADIRPOPUP in table RSADMINS (System Settings) is set to “x”. With this entry, you define that the BW transport system is activated in the default system

In case of blank value the dialog prompting the user to enter a transport request does not appear when editing the objects.

Development system: As we need to record changes and collect into transport request, Field TADIRPOPUP in table RSADMINS should not
be blank.

This setting will work on top of SCC4 transport settings.

Step9: Defining the Recording Time for Transports

Go to->transaction code RSA1, click on transport connection.

Then Edit -> Transport -> Switch-on Standard.

Step10:

Create job and schedules weekly once

Job name: ZBW_OLAP_CACHE_CLEAR

Program name: RSR_CACHE_RSRV_CHECK

Step11:

Schedule report to clear the DTP buffer

Job: ZBW_DTP_CACHE_CLEAR

Program: RSBKCHECKBUFFER

Step12:

Deleting Messages and Parameters of the BW Background

Job: BI_DELETE_OLD_MSG_PARM_DTPTEMP on daily basis

Program: RSBATCH_DEL_MSG_PARM_DTPTEMP.

Step13: Metadata repository configuration

Prerequisite: The HTTP or HTTP(s) port needs to be open based on the usage. By default, metadata repository will open using HTTP protocol. In case if you want to launch metadata repository using HTTPS protocol, you can add the below ICM parameter in the instance profile using RZ10 T-code and restart the ICM in SMICM transaction.

Icm/HTTP/redirect_0            = PREFIX=/, FROM=*, FROMPROT=http,
PROT=https, HOST=logicalsystem.FQDN, PORT=XXXX (HTTPS PORT NO)

Transaction code: STRUST


Activate SSL server Standard


SPRO -> Maintain web protocol HTTP/HTTPS.

Transaction code SICF: Activate service “rso_metadata_repository”

Metadata repository then launches fine in RSA1transaction.

Step14: Activate personalization content:

Create Development package with project specific naming convention using T-code SE21 or SE80.

Then activate the personalization content using SPRO transaction
