FI SD EXTRACTION QUESTION

[Former Member]

Hi all-

I have been reading documetaion on extracting data from FI and SD. Please correct me if I am worng.

Assumption: All business content is installed on R3 and activated replicated on bw side. All standard objects are used, no custom objects.

<b>FI</b>

Create an InfoPackage for init. load -> load that data.

Create an InfoPackage for Delta load -> load data as frequently as required.

<b>Queation 1</b> Is this is it? We don't have to setup any thing like we do for SD (setting up tables or something.)

<b>Question 2.</b> Is the above is called LIS extraction.

<b>SD</b>

Delete and fill setup talbes in R3

Replicate the data sources in BW

Create InfoPackage for Init. load

Create InfoPackage for Delta load.

<b>Question 3</b>: Here, do we need to load setup-tables in R3 only before Init load, or do we have to do this every time even before every delta load?

Thanks

hi Punzu,

1. yes, we have no need to setup do setup tables for FI.

2. no, FI is different from LIS or LO cockpit.

3. do setup tables only before init load, or needed, not every time delta.

hope this helps.

<b>Question 4:</b> If I want to custamize the FI extraction, how do I do that? Say, I want to append few fields to standard datasource, can I do so? write abap code in the exit to populate these extra fields? Or this can only be done in LO for SD and etc?

yes, you can do so, for FI you can check following doc

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a7f2f294-0501-0010-11bb-80e0d67c...

hope this helps.

And look to these relevant OSS Notes:

410799 'Enhancement of line item extraction FI-GL, FI-CIS...'

415530 'Using fields in 'CI-Includes'

430303 'Enhancing DataSource 0FI_GL_4 by BSEG fields'

Hope it helps!

Bye,
