BI Implementation Steps

What are the business intelligence implementation steps?

There are flows which you have to follow for getting the BW System ready and
healthy.  This is where the Consultants Experience Plays a major role:

1. Identify the plugin are installed on the Source System.


2. Create the Logical Systems in both Systems (Source Systems and BW System).
3. Achieve the connection between the Source System and the BW System (Creation
of ALEREMOTE users).
4. Transfer the Application Hierarchy.
5. Activate the Identified Data Sources in Source System.
6. Replicate the DataSources in SAP BW.
7. Now the Data sources are to be mapped according to the Modeling done in the BW
System.

There is always a option to add more data sources or some thing of that sort at any
point.
Then there is the option of Early Check available from SAP which checks your
system and give suggestions for improvements.
