Problem with Business Content install in ECC5 IDES

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am having tough time installing business content.

After installing ECC5 IDES, I am trying to install Business Content in BW ( Client 800).

In SBIW, (under Business Content DataSources), I did Transfer Application Component Hierarchy.

Then I transfered few DataSiurces ( 0MATERIAL_ATTR)

Then in BW, I did "Replicate Data Sources". I see all the Datasources in "Data Source Overview"

But When I try to install Business Conetent ( rsa1>> Business Content >> Select Object Types >> InfoObjects>> Select Objects>> Double click ), I couldn't find any InfoObjects from source system. I tried the same for InfoCubes as well..

Am I missing anything?? I appreciate your help.

Thanks

ECC will have content for 'source system' ie datasource and extractors. On your BW system you need to have the business content add on available before you can see such objects there (infoobjects, cubes).

BW system (whether in the same IDES or another system) needs to have this BW Content add-on. It is one additional step, just having the BW system (without this addon) will not give you what you are looking for.

BW content add-on is typically one set of transport files, installed using SAINT transaction. My guess is your system doesn't have it.

Thanks for your reply.

Where Can I find the BW add on? Is there a trial version that I can get?

There is no trial version for BI content (or BW content).
