Maintaining DataSource for Association
Rules
Use
You can use the extraction process to load the results from mining models using DataSources. The generation of DataSources is based on the InfoObjects that are used as model keys. Hence, any two models having the same keys will share the same DataSource.
The extraction process takes into account the results that have already been uploaded into SAP BW. Using the SAP BW staging process, you can upload the extracted data obtained from association rules.
Prerequisites
● The data mining model must activated
● Only DataSources for transaction data (TRAN) are generated
Procedure
...
1. In the context menu for the association analysis model, choose Maintain DataSource
2. If you have already maintained a DataSource, then:
...
a. Details of the associated DataSource are displayed
b. You will get a message stating that the model source is already associated to a DatSource
3. If no DataSource is maintained for the mining source, then:
...
a. The system prompts you to specify the validity options for extracted data. Choose the Validity of Extracted Results to get the valid date interval. This indicates the time period up to which the uploaded data will be valid in the InfoCube
b. Select the relevant option and choose Create
c. This displays the details of the associate DataSource
