How to enhance 0ASSET_ATTR_TEXT

Former Member

Dear experts,

I need to enhance the asset master datasource 0ASSET_ATTR_TEXT in BW with further (standard) fields of the same sourcetables. Does anyone have experience with this special matter? Is it straight forward like other datasources, where you enhance the transfer-structure in SBIW and the extractor fills those fields automatically (with move corresponding).

Remember:

1. This is a special datasource delivering both texts and attributes, delta-capable (due to enourmous source data)

2. Any enhancements like with standard exits (CMOD etc.) do not ensure, the new fiels are relevant for delta-handling.

Thanks

Frank

Frank,

You dont need to go to SBIW/LBWE. These are LO datasource transaction. You will not fing your datasource here.

Follow these steps:

Go To SAP R/3 TCODE-RSA6

2. Open the SAP R/3 Tab & select the module & the masterdata extractor name for ex.MM -> MM-IO ->0VENDOR_ATTR

3. Double click on it. It will show you the extract structure name under "ExtractStru" as BIW_LFA1_S.

4. Double click on it or copy the name & open SE11 & paste the name open the structure.

5. There you can find append structure field name in ZZ. i.e all append structure fields should start with ZZ as prefix.

6. To find the source field you have to go to CMOD.

7. Provide the project name which is created.

8. Then select the "Enhancement components" option.

9. Click on display button.

10. Select the function exits "Exit_SAPLRSAP_002" it will open the include program "include zxrsau02".

11. Double click on "zxrsau02".

12.You will find the case program with datasource name.

13.Choose your master datasource & check the table names & the logic.

Thanks..

Hi Frank,

This is a master datasource so u will not get it under the transaction LBWE where we do enhancement from the fields acvailable in communication structure.

So for this you have to write the code in CMOD & add the fields using append structure.

Can u explain your requriement more clearly.

Thanks

Hi Dipika,

the requirement is to enhance the datasource with some more fields from tables (ANLA,ANLZ), which are already extracted by the standard data source...but SAP does not get any hints on how to do this. So I was wondering, whether in case I add those fields to the append structure, they are filled automatically by the extractor (via move corresponding)

The further and more tricky requirement is, to make sure, that any changes on these new fields will cause a delta to be provided for BW. If you add fied contents by CMOD etc.. you can get any more fields you like, but changes on them are not reported to the delta mechanism in R/3. As 0ASSET is a huge master data object in terms of no of records, keeping the delta alive is extremely important..

Vielen Dank

Hi Frank,

I understood your requirement, but when we add z fields system cannot take into consideration delta on these fields, that is if some data records are changed on the basis of these files system will not track that.

In such kind of requirements its better to create Z datasource and take care there.

Thanks,

Dipika
