Generic Extraction Steps

The document describes the steps to create a generic data extraction view in SAP by: 1) Creating a view that joins the MARA and MARC tables on the common MATNR field 2) Activating the view and checking the contents 3) Creating a generic datasource in transaction RSO2 using the newly created view 4) Replicating the metadata to BI/BO and activating the datasource there 5) Creating relevant info objects and an info package to load data into the PSA
