ECC source systems appearing in BI folder

Today a colleague noticed that our ECC systems appeared not under the SAP folder, but under the BI folder. This is strange, since ECC is not a BI system. In order to fix this SAP has publishes (of course) an SAP note. (1087980).
ECC source systems appearing in BI folder
This note describes the following steps in order to fix this issue:

Step Action
1. Check that an entry with SRCTYPE ‘M’ exists in table RSBASIDOC table of ECC source system.
2. Note the values for SLOGSYS and RLOGSYS. It should be same.
3. Run the function module RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT in the ECC system. NOTE: Never run that function module in a BI system!
4. Enter the following values: I_BIW_LOGSYS <RLOGSYS> as noted in step 2 I_OLTP_LOGSYS  <SLOGSYS> as noted in step 2 I_FORCE_DELETE <X> DO NOT ENTER ANY VALUE IN THE FIELD  – RFC target sys !!!!!
5. Go to RSA1-> Source systems.
6. Select the ECC source system and select RESTORE in the right click menu.

After step 6 has been performed be sure to reactivate all of your transfer structures. If you do not do this the system will not appear under the SAP folder. After you have done this the ECC system should appear in the SAP folder.
