Selecting the Transfer Mode and Activating the ABAP Extraction Program

Selecting the Transfer Mode and Activating the ABAP Extraction Program

Use step 2 of the Generate Mapping for BCI Wizard to select the transfer mode and activate the ABAP extraction program.
The following table describes the DataSource fields:
Field
Description
DataSource Name
SAP name of the DataSource used for the mapping.
Type
DataSource type.
Description
DataSource description.
Extractor
Extractor program name.
Extract Structure
Extract structure name.
Delta
Delta designation.
To select the transfer mode and activate the ABAP extraction program:
  1. In step 2 of the Generate Mapping for BCI Wizard, select a transfer mode:
    • tRFC
      . Sends data faster and requires fewer resources than IDoc, but cannot be used for hierarchy DataSources.
    • IDoc
      . Stages all data to IDocs before sending them to the PowerCenter Integration Service. IDoc is the default for hierarchy DataSources.
  2. Click Activate DataSource to activate the ABAP extraction program in SAP for the DataSource.
    If you activated this DataSource in another processing mapping, then you do not need to activate the DataSource again. However, you need to reactivate the DataSource when one of the following conditions is true:
    • This mapping uses a different transfer mode.
    • The DataSource metadata has changed.
    Otherwise, the session you create for this mapping fails.
  3. Click Next.
    Step 3 of the wizard appears.
