Help needed in Transfer routine in Info object

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

I would like to know what is the use of the <b>Transfer Routine in the Info object</b>, i haven't used it before, it would be helpful if anyone provide me with an example Routine program and explain how it is used through out a program(e.g. loading data into data target). It would be a great help. Will reward points. Thanks

it useful if you have to do a transformation.

Say for eg the object gets data from various data sources. this is the place to get the format corrected.

source 1. material comes without leading zero.

eg: 1243, 4327

source 2. material comes with leading zero

eg: 0001243, 0004327

you have decided to have material without leading zero in you BW system.

in that case you have to write a TR for source 2 load to remove leading zero

hoep you got it.

Hi RR,

transfer routines are the place whr u change the values of data in records before they are loaded into the target, be it Info object, cube or ODS.

U can write routines to filter records based on some value, or even change the value of a field and also u can fill up value for a field in rotine itself.

for more info, go thru below link.

For Example.

I have material X in R/3 or source system but business reports generated from BW should display Material X -

---

> P . so we write a code in the transfer routine and convert it when it encouter material X it will Convert it as P.
