Migrating Data and AKFIs to TwinCubes
You will usually migrate your data in SAP Solution Manager Configuration, but you can also do so in the BPO reporting infrastructure, on the BP Analytics BW
tab.
Procedure
Migrating Data from InfoCube to TwinCubes
Verify that the data migration status is green.
Choose the
Migrate Cube Data
buttonA background job is scheduled to migrate the data.
In the job log, you can identify errors (for example, if the data could not be migrated because of missing authorization) and monitor the progress of the migration.
The data displayed in BP Analytics is retrieved from TwinCubes. You do not need to migrate or change key figure variants. When opening a variant, the system checks whether the TwinCubes are active. If so, the data displayed in the variant is requested from TwinCubes.
Migrating Analytical Key Figure Instances
To display data from the TwinCubes in existing dashboards, adjust the analytical key figure instances (AKFIs) to refer to data from the TwinCubes (BPM_TwinCube
). Before the migration, the AKFIs that refer to data from BP Analytics pull data from the InfoCube (BPM_ACube
).
Choose the Migrate AKFI Directory
button. This adjusts all AKFIs that have BPM_ACube
as a data source.
