Use

In DataSource maintenance in BW you can display DataSources and 3.x DataSources.

You can use this interface to create or change DataSources for file source systems, UD Connect, DB Connect, and Web services in BW.

In DataSource maintenance, you can edit DataSources from SAP source systems. In particular, you can specify which fields you want to transfer into BW. In addition, you can determine properties for extracting data from the DataSource and properties for the DataSource fields. You can also change these properties.

You call DataSource maintenance from the context menu of a DataSource ( Display, Change) or, if you are in the Data Warehousing Workbench, from the context menu of an application component in an object tree ( Create DataSource). Alternatively you can call DataSource maintenance from the DataSource repository. In the Data Warehousing Workbench toolbar, choose DataSource to access the DataSource repository.
