SAP Table sources in synchronization tasks

When you configure a

synchronization

task to use an SAP Table source, you can configure the source properties.

The source properties appear on the

Source

page of the

Synchronization

Task wizard when you specify an SAP Table connection.

The following table describes the SAP Table source properties:

Property	Description
Connection	Name of the source connection.
Source Type	Source type. Select one of the following types: Single. Select to specify a single SAP Table object. Multiple. Select to specify multiple SAP Table objects. When you specify multiple source objects, you need to create relationships between the source objects.
Source Object	Source object for the task.
Add	Adds multiple source objects.
Create Relationship	Creates relationship between selected source object and related source object. Specify a join condition between a source object key field and a related source object key field.
Edit Relationship	Edits a join condition.
Display technical field names instead of labels	When selected, displays technical names instead of business names of the fields in the specified source object.
Display source fields in alphabetical order	When selected, displays source fields in alphabetic order. By default, fields appear in the order returned by the source system.
Data Preview	Displays the first 10 rows of the first five columns in the object and the total number of columns in the object.
Preview All Columns	Previews all source columns in a file.

You can also configure advanced source properties when you schedule the

synchronization

task. Advanced source properties appear on the

Schedule

page of the

Synchronization

Task wizard.

The following table describes the SAP Table advanced source properties:

Property	Description
Number of rows to be fetched	The number of rows that are randomly retrieved from the SAP Table. Default value of zero retrieves all the rows in the table.
Number of rows to be skipped	The number of rows to be skipped.
Packet size in MB	Packet size. Default is 10 MB.
Enable Compression	Enables compression. If the Secure Agent and the SAP System are not located in the same network, you may want to enable the compression option to optimize performance.
