Working with ABAP Mappings Overview

Working with ABAP Mappings Overview

Complete the following steps when you create a mapping with an SAP ECC source definition:
  1. Configure the source definition.
    The source definition has the following configuration properties that allow you to optimize performance when you extract from SAP:
    • Select option.
      Restricts the number of rows returned from the SAP ECC source.
    • Order By.
      Orders by primary keys or by a specific number of ports.
  2. Create and configure the Application Source Qualifier.
  3. Install the ABAP program.
    The ABAP program extracts source data from the SAP system.
Use the following guidelines when you create a mapping with an SAP ECC source definition:
  • The mapping name cannot exceed 56 characters.
  • The mapping name or description and the folder or repository name in which you save the mapping cannot contain the word “REPORT.” When the word “REPORT” exists in the mapping name or description and the folder or repository name, the ABAP program fails.
