    This document provides steps to upload historical data from a flat file source into an SAP system using Smart Data Access. It involves: 1. Creating a flat file data source and defining the file location and structure. 2. Creating a transformation to map fields from the data source to an infocube. 3. Setting up a data transfer process to load the data from the source into the target infocube. 4. Creating an infopackage to extract data from the flat file on a scheduled basis.

    Upload Historical Data from Smart Stream using Flat File Source System.

    PREREQUISITES:

    INFOCUBE/INFOPROVIDER has been defined.

    Steps Screenshot
    1. CREATE FLAT FILE DATASOURCES

    Note: InfoObjects must be defined


    before creating the Data Structure.

    Go to RSA1 Tcode -> DataSources

    Go to File -> PC_FILE DataSources

    Right click to Create DataSource.


    Enter a DataSource name.

    Source system should be PC_FILE and


    Select Data Type of DataSource, in our
    example we will use Transaction Data.

    General Info tab - provides information


    on the Data Source created.

    Enter Short, Medium and Long


    Description of Datasource.

    Extraction tab – provides details of file


    to be extracted.

    Select Adapter Type: choose between


    Local Workstation or Application
    Server.

    Filename - Select name of file using F4,


    search for the file on your local desktop

    Header rows to be ignored = ‘1’ (if file


    has a header row as column titles) or
    = ‘0’ (if file has no header row)

    Select Data Format as – “Separated


    with Separator (for ex CSV)”. Enter the
    Data Separator as ‘,‘.  
    Proposal tab – provides a quick view of
    the data in the flat file to be uploaded

    Click on the ‘Load Example’ tab. The


    details can be viewed in the below pane

    Fields tab – provides details of all fields


    used to create a data structure, to map
    with the fields from Source file.

    Make sure that the fields are in the


    same sequence with the CSV file.

    Check before you activate. If there is


    error or warning message you can use
    Performance Assistant.
    Preview tab – gives a preview of data
    on flat file loaded onto a structure.

    Click on “Read Preview Data” to display


    the data.

    2. CREATE TRANSFORMATION

    Note: InfoCube/InfoProvider must be


    defined to create transformation.

    Go to specific InfoCube then right click


    to Create Transformation.

    For the Target of Transformation,

    - Enter Object Type: InfoCube (this is


    our target in this scenario)

    - Enter the name of the InfoCube that


    we will use.

    For the Source of Transformation,

    - Enter Object Type: DataSource (this is


    our source structure)

    - Enter name of Data Source we created


    and Source System will be PC_FILE.
    Once the Transformation has been
    created, map the fields from
    DataSource to specific InfoObjects in
    InfoCube.

    You can use rule details such as


    Formula, Routine(ABAP Program) and
    other rule types to format the data for
    specific InfoObject.

    Save and Activate, if the mapping is


    done correctly.

    3. DATA TRANSFER PROCESS

    Infocube -> DTP -> right click to create

    The DTP name is described as :


    < DataSrc/SourceSys -> InfoObject >

    DTP type : Standard

    Target of DTP :
    Object Type : InfoCube
    Name: Name of the InfoCube

    Source of DTP
    Object Type: DataSource
    DataSource: Name of DataSource we
    created.
    Source System should be PC_FILE.

    Extraction tab:
    Select Extraction Mode: Full or Delta.

    We will use Delta for this example.


    Click Execute to trigger the Data
    Transfer.

    4. INFOPACKAGE

    DataSources -> right click to Create


    InfoPackage

    Enter InfoPackage Description then


    Save.
    In Extraction tab, change the Filename
    to location of the CSV File we will use.

    Header rows to be ignored = ‘1’ (if file


    has a header row as column titles) or
    = ‘0’ (if file has no header row)

    Select Data Format as – “Separated


    with Separator (for ex CSV)”. Enter the
    Data Separator as ‘,‘.  

    You may execute the InfoPackage in


    Schedule tab. Click Start to execute.
