Lesson 10 (Application Specific Extractor)

Application Specific Extractor: There are two types

1- BW Content Extractors
2- Customer Generated Extractors

BW Content Extractors: are already built and predefined extractors from SAP. Depending
upon the data you are extracting you can activate required extractor.
Step-1: Login to ECC.
Step-2: RSA5
Step-3:

Step-4
Logistic Extractor (Sales Order Detail, Inventory Controlling etc)

Run /oLBWE

Setup tables can be only modify by deactivating the extractor and remove all existing
data from extractor otherwise it would not work. Steps to modify

Step-1: Run RSA3 and Deactivate the required extractor.

Step-2 : Run ova1 (Go Sales Order)

Run /oLBWG (Deletion of Setup Data)
Choose the application component which data need to be deleted.

Choose 11

Step-3: Go to RSA3 to verify that if all setup data is deleted. It will return zero for all tables.

Step-4: Click on Maintenance of Extractor and perform require change (Add or delete fields)

Step-5: Click on data source

Step-6: Unhide or hide field as required and save.

Step-7: Activate the Extractor

Step-8: Verify that data exist using RSA3. It will have zero records.

Step-9: Run SBIW

Select Sales Orders.

Click Execute

Step-10: When completes it give output. If it ran next time it will override data.

Step-11: Run RSA3 to verify that if data exist in setup tables. This time it will return record
count.

Getting Data into BW

1- RSA1-> Data Source

Step-2: It will prompt for login (Username and password) and SE11 and go back.
Step-3: change and activate the Data source.
Step-4: Create Info Package

Step-5: Choose required Update Mode and then go to schedule tab and click Start.
Step-6:

run sbiw
