What is DataSource ?
What is DataSource ?
A DataSource is not only a structure in which source system fields are logically grouped together, but also an object that contains
ETTL-related information.
Four types of DataSources exist:
1.DataSources for characteristic attributes
2.DataSources for characteristic texts
3.DataSources for characteristic hierarchies
4.DataSources for transaction data.
The maximum number of characters allowed for the DataSources technical name is 32.

What is Source system ?
What is Source system ?
A source system is a protocol that enables BW to know where to find data and how to extract those data. When the source system is a non-SAP system, such as a flat file or a third-party tool, the maximum number of characters allowed for the technical name is 10. When the source system is an SAP system, either R/3 or BW, its technical name matches its logical system name. The maximum number of characters allowed for the technical name is 32.

Creating an Info Cube
Creating an Info Cube
An SAP BW info cube includes a fact table and up to 16 dimension tables, 3 of which are predefined, i.e. Time, Unit, and Info Packages (defines extraction order and selection criteria for data load). In SAP BW, Info Cubes may be either a basic Cube, a Multi Cube, or a Remote Cube.
