You are involved in an SAP BW/4HANA project focusing on General Ledger reporting and want to use the SAP ERP Standard DataSource 0FI_GL_ 14 (New GL Items). Which transaction can be used to activate…

Question

Options

• ATransaction RSA1 (BI Content) in the SAP BW/4HANA system
• BTransaction RSA5 (Installation of DataSource from Business Content) SAP source system
• CTransaction RS02 (Maintain Generic DataSource) in the SAP source system.
• DTransaction ODQMON (Monitor Delta Queues) in SAP source system

• A
  95% (55)
• C
  3% (2)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

Activating the standard DataSource 0FI_GL_14 requires two steps spanning two systems: in the SAP BW/4HANA system, you use Transaction RSA1 (BI Content Administrator Workbench) to locate and activate the DataSource from Business Content metadata; and in the SAP ERP source system, you use Transaction RSA5 (Install DataSources from Business Content) to physically install and replicate the DataSource so it becomes available for extraction. Together, A and B represent the standard two-system activation workflow.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• C (RS02) is used to create or maintain generic DataSources (custom-built ones based on tables, views, or function modules), not to activate pre-delivered standard DataSources like 0FI_GL_14.
• D (ODQMON) is an Operational Delta Queue Monitor used to troubleshoot or manage delta queue entries - it has nothing to do with activating DataSources.

Memory tip: Think of it as a two-key lock - RSA5 unlocks the source system (installs the DataSource on the ERP side), and RSA1 unlocks the BW side (activates it in BW/4HANA from BI Content). You need both keys to open the door; one alone is not enough.
