Add new fields for filtering in SMOEAC

[Former Member]

Hi!

Is there any option to extend the potential criteria fields in a simple intelligent replication object? In my case for BUPA_MAIN which at the moment has only the following filters:

BPARTNER, CENTRALARCHIVINGFLAG, COUNTRYISO, INDUSTRY, IS_COMPETITOR, IS_CONSUMER, IS_CUSTOMER, IS_DELETED, IS_PROSPECT, PARTNEREXTERNAL, REGION, SEARCHTERM1 and SEARCHTERM2

Thanks a lot!

Dear Susana!

First of all - yes it is possible to extend replication objects. To extend the potential criteria fields for a given replication object, it is important to understand that replication objects are based on BDoc types. So basically you can use any segment field of the corresponding BDoc as a criteria field.

In order to do so, you need to delete the standard replication object in SMOEAC and create a new one, based on the corresponding BDoc type, including all the desired BDoc segment fields as potential criteria fields. You can then user your new replication object to create custom publications and subscriptions.

Looking at your requirement is a bit different though, because BDoc BUPA_MAIN has no more segment fields (except for BPARTNERGUID) than what is already included as potential criteria field.

So, if you could try and elaborate a little bit further what it is that you are trying to achieve, more specific answers should be coming your way.
