CO-PA – Extracting Data into BW Systems 

Purpose

This process demonstrates the steps and settings you need to make in the Financials (FI) and Business Information Warehouse (BW) components, before you are able to extract data from the profitability analysis (CO-PA) into BW, and analyze it using the BW frontend.

Prerequisites

This process is available as from Release BW 2.1C only.

The operating concern template S_GO is included in your R/3 system (as from Release 4.6C).

If you want to carry out the process in an IDES BW system, you have to delete any contents in the InfoCubes and the initialization selection for the source system.

For additional information on this process, see .
