I am running the PREPARE for the upgrade from BW3.5 to BI7.0.

One item pointed out by PREPARE is to activate the transfer rules,

Please help tell how to do it?

Hi,

Before Upgrade,

1. You Should check for All Transfer and update rules are activated/Deleted.

IF not, do like this

Execute ABAP Program RSUPGRCHECK to locate any inactive UPDATE or Transfer rules.

IF you can found, Activate or delete using by Tcode RSA1.

Check oss note = 449160 from http://service.sap.com/notes.

The RSUPGRCHECK report checks the consistency of generated DDIC objects for BW metadata such as InfoObjects, InfoCubes and transfer rules. It determines whether the DDIC tables required for a BW metaobject actively exist.

The report is mainly intended for the upgrade but may be called at any time to determine inconsistencies in DDIC objects while a BW system is running (for example, also BEFORE you start the upgrade). The report itself does not eliminate any inconsistencies. However, it points to the incorrect objects found in a log.

The report is called automatically (prepare phase) in the upgrade. The user or system administrator must use BW transactions to edit (post-activate) the inconsistent BW objects found since this may otherwise cause errors and terminations due to non-activated DDIC tables during the upgrade.
