Standard transactional data source to Info Object Master data

36 Views

Hi,

Can we link the standard transactional data source to link to Master data attributes?

(I will not directly link data source and info object directly but i will use the DSO between data source and Info object)

Data flow will be like: Standard data source--> DSO --> Info Object attributes

Why i am asking this question is : I have the following: I am working on HCM module "Objective settinsg and appraisals".

Standard SAP data source 0HR_PA_HAP_1 is a transactional data source. The fields that it contains , i want to use them as an attributes to HAP_DOC_ID.

As i cannot use them directly, first i will map the standard data source fields to a DSO and from DSO, i will update the fields as an attributes to Master data.

But i am not sure whether i can do this way or is it a best practice to do it? If i am not supposed to do this way, then there will be a development effort to create a replica of the standard data soource to map the attributes.

Pls share your views
