Delta for COPA datasource and CE2xxxx

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

I created a datasource for COPA data and so far it works fine in delta mode.

However, in ECC system, COPA data can be updated manually by uploading TXT file via standard transaction KE13.

In this case, table CE2xxxx seems to be refreshed: previous data is deleted and new data is updated in the table.

The consequence is that my datasource sends only the new data and the old one is not cancelled: key figures can be then doubled, tripled...

Do you know if there Is any way to get correct data and avoid Full update mode (daily)?

If records are being physically deleted and new records inserted into a table in your ECC environment, the delta processes cannot recognize the deletes. Because the business process, in your case, a Full extraction on a daily basis is the only way you're going to be able to handle this unless you create generic DataSources for each COPA table (CE1XXXX through CE4XXXX).
