Mapping of fields with InfoObjects

SAP has delivered Standard InfoObjects corresponding to the fields in ECC.  We

will be using those.

To find out the InfoObjects there are some SAP tables which we can use.  Please
refer to my documents on

those SAP tables.  Here I am using the table RSTRFIELDSH.

1) Go to SE11 and give the table name—>Display–> Contents

Here give FIELDNM–> VBELN and Execute.

In the next screen, we can see that 0DOC_NUMBER ( in IOBJNM column) is the
Standard InfoObject delivered for VBELN.

Follow the steps to find Standard InfoObjects for all your fields.

Now go to t-code RSORBCT or BI Content under Modeling Tab in RSA1.

Object Types–>InfoObjects–>Select Objects–>Find 0DOC_NUMBER–>Transfer

Selections

Like this, transfer all the required InfoObjects and Install.  Please be cautious
while doing BI content installation.

Check if any of the InfoObjects are already available in active version and being
used in other projects in the BI system. 

Don’t install them again.  (In my case, 0SALESORG and 0CH_ON are already
active).  Install the others.

2)  Once this is done, if you want you can create an InfoArea and collect the
InfoObjects in Catalogs (optional)

(if its already part of another InfoArea, you won’t be able to collect it here)

3) Create a DataStoreObject.  Context Menu on InfoArea–>Create

DataStoreObject

Give infoobjects corresponding to VBELN, POSNR, and PARVW as Keyfields and

others in Datafields and activate.

4) Create Transformation between DataSource and DSO.

5) Create DTP

09/12/21, 16:54 Generic Extraction based on a View – Part 3 | SAP Blogs

Activate and Execute. Check the DTP Monitor.

Click on ‘Administer DataTargets’

09/12/21, 16:54 Generic Extraction based on a View – Part 3 | SAP Blogs

The data is now in the Activation Queue of the DSO, you need to activate it so
that the data moves to the Active Data table.

09/12/21, 16:54 Generic Extraction based on a View – Part 3 | SAP Blogs

Check in the Active Data Table.
