Enhancing Function Module Extractor

Is it possible to enhance an extract structure which is using a function module as an extractor.
Basically I want to extract some more fields which the function module is not extracting. Can someone let me know how to do this.
Best Regards,
James.

hi James,
is it generic extractor or business content ?
if generic extractor, since it's our own, you can add field(s) in extract structure and add code in the function module to populate these fields.
go to transaction RSO2, and you will see the extract structure, use SE11 to 'change' the structure and activate. then add code in function module, use SE37.
if business content, RSA6, choose your datasource and double click the extract structure and click 'append structure', add field(s) with prefix ZZ. activate the structure.
and populate the field(s) via user exit ZXRSAU01 (for transaction data).
hope this helps.

Function Module in a Generic Function Module Extractor

I want to use a generic function module (ZFM_CONNECTION_DETAIL) in a Generic Function Module based Extractor.
After Creating, I have checked it in RSA3... Data is showing properly on the Extractor Check.
And replicated on BW side, after triggering the extractor using infopackageu2026 only one record is coming on the target side (BW).
And one job is running endless on the source system.
Generic extractor on the normal code is working properly on both sides.
But problem occurs while I was using Function Module in the Generic function Module extractor.
Waiting for a Reply with solution...........

How to Function module extractor

Can anybody give me a step by step procedure to do a function module extractor ?
Like the steps that I need to perform even before i start writing my code
Thanks
Shruti

Dear Shruthi,
Do a Search in SDN .you get lot of threads for FM Extraction ...
The easiest way to work out with Function Module is to copy the standard one and modify according to your reqirement.
The standard one is RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE .
Dont forget to copy the Function grp RSAX into a custom defined Grp and Modify the Ranges options as per ur req.
and in Function module, in Sourcecode and Tables, Do modify the E_T_data with ur Generic datasource ,make sure u also modify the select statements within the sourcecode. If you have an idea on ABAP its really easy to work out.
And regarding the creation of Datasource.
Its really Simple.
Goto RSo2.
Give the name of Datasource.
Give the Fm name and Extract Struc ( name of D.S only).
Save and Generate.
thats it.
Dont forget to assign points.Its a way of saying thanks.
Thanks,
Krishna

Function Module extractor extracting as a Single Package?

Hi All,
I have created a generic function module extractor, which works fine, but extracts all the records in a single package. The default is set in SBIW as 50000 records. But right now I have only 2500 records. But I changed the packet size to 100 in my info package setting and also specified as 100 with in the function module.
But still I get all the data come as a single package of 2500. I want to make sure that this extractor will not create any problem in production, so I want to test the data packet size. Any suggestion. I have used he standard function module DATASIMPLE and I do setup I_MAXSIZE as 100 in the IMPORT parameter in the function and hav ethe following code in the function module...
         APPEND mgremp_stru to E_T_DATA.
          mseq = mseq + 1.
          if mseq = 100.
             G_COUNTER_DATAPAKID = G_COUNTER_DATAPAKID + 1.
             mseq = 0.
          endif.
    endloop.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
       RAISE NO_MORE_DATA.
    ENDIF.
    S_COUNTER_DATAPAKID = S_COUNTER_DATAPAKID + 1.
Any Suggestions?
Thx,
Alex.

Ramesh,
The simple truth is that what ever you define as a data structure for E_T_DATA should be exactly matching to your selections in the CUSOR. My scenario is way too trichy not just because too many sqls, but because of the nature of HR Tables. Same field will have two different values such as in one record SOBID refers to Org Unit, in the next record the same is Person and in the next record it is Position. So I should have the same field 3 times in a single record. But it is not possible. SO what I did was found 3 different fields whose length and type are same as what I need and selected them but inside my function module I manipulated with internal tables. So the extractor thinks I declare cursor for the same fields I defined in the data source (the value you use in E_T_DATA) and extract them in the FETCH. In the fetch all it checks internally is that whether the only the CURSOR selected fields are extracted , because you will update the E_T_DATA. I know this is little more than what I explained here, but this is the concept.
I am planning to have a weblog or a white paper published on this in a week or two.
If this idea helps assign points.
Goodluck,
Alex.

Function Module Extractor with Delta

I'm very new to working with the BW, so I hope I'm explaining my question in a way that makes sense.
I need to make a BW extractor that pulls data from at least one table, possibly more, and which also calculates some data.
I think the only way I can do that is by using an extractor with a function module.
I've been looking at the examples in function group RSAX, and I think I sort of get it, except for one part.
I'm really confused about how the delta works.
I'm looking at the example: RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE
Does it even use a delta?
I'm trying to understand how the delta gets passed, and how it gets used to filter the data in the function module. I'm not sure if it's something I need to code in myself, or if it's something that BW does by itself, or what.
I'm not sure if I'm making sense, but if anyone could help me, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks guys, you've been super helpful so far, so I'm just going to keep asking questions. I promise to award points at the end
I'm looking at it now, and I think if I change it to read from a table, instead of read from a function module I can use the 'numeric pointer' option for the delta. (Does that just mean a number? For example, payroll runid is a number, so I could use that and only get new payroll runs?)
However, there still are some calculated fields they want. Someone mentioned doing that on the BW side. How would that work?
Sorry for such vague questions, but any help is really appreciated.

PROBLEM in function module extractor

Hi ,
i m facing a problem in creating a function module as extractor in srm but its not working plz letme know the way i can create the zfunction module as extrator.
i created a datasource ZSRM_CS in which i m using BBP_PDS_CND as extraction structure and Z_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE as zfunction module
but even wen i use rsa3 in debug mode its not stoping and gives error
ERROR6 plz letmme know the problem.
i copied the standard module RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE .

Functional Module Extractor not pulling all the record on BW side

Hi,
i have written a FM extractor to pull data from CDHDR and CDPOS table. the Records count shows on RSA3 is more than 3,00,000 but while pulling it on BW side it brings only 41,000 Around records.
I steps i have taken is -
tried setting and resetting the package side in Info package.
Tried putting the default package size to 50K in FM setting
but nothing is working.
It seems like the pacet size is not incrementing in the code. i have tired to find ou the fault but coult not and RSA3 is working fine.
can anyone please suggest a correct piece of code or find out where exactly the fault is?

Vikrant,
The structure of your generic extractor function module should be something like:
If initialisation
Store parameters, clear packet count
Else
If first packet
Create cursor
Endif
Read block of records from cursor
If cursor returns no more records
Raise NO_MORE_DATA exception
Endif
Process records from cursor and output
Add one to packet count
Endif
This function module code can get called repeatedly. Possibly you are only extracting data for the first packet?

Create Function Module Extractor

Hello Friends, Please help me in developing the extractor. I want to write the custom extractor using the three Table fields FAGLFLEXA and FAGLFLEXT with some logic to merge data. if you have any abap code. please email me at [email protected] will be very thankful for the help. i do not want to use the generic datasource. want to use the finction module option beacuse the logic is there from 3-4 tables.

Function Module Extractor with Delta Functionality

Hi Friends,
I have to extract the entire data of CDPOS table in R/3 , as its a cluster table I am unable to build a view, I am planning to go for FM extraction, Could someone help me as how to build it with Delta Functionality.
I think I need to develop the Datasource, with Extract Structure,( Do I need to create a Structure in SE11) Please help me out .
Thanks,
Krish

Hi,
you can either use an existing structure or else create one on your own. (SE11).
The DeltaHandlig fairly easy.
When having finished the extractor (FunctionModule, Structur and DatasSource), go to the "generic Delta" button and select the relevant field.
The Generic Delta and its DeltaPointer is managed within the DeltaQueue (RSA7) and works more or less like a selection. Don't think too hard about it in your function module except taht you need to select by this field in your FM.
Did that come clear?

Fields inclusion for Function Module Extractor

Hi Gurus,
I am planning to design a Function Module based extractor. This Function modules is supposed to extract data from approx 10 different tables. Most of the tables have 5 or more fields of it to be pulled in.
However, there are also few tables, which have got just a single field or just 2 fields.
As a design, is it a good idea to include the logic of extracting these fields in the Function module? or
Is it recommended to have these fields included via a user exit, once the datasource is developed?
I appreciate all the help

Thanks Dash I have assigned the points.
I guess you are recommending the User Exit approach as mentioned in my original post where few of my tables have got just a single field or just 2 fields.
Let me know please.
Other SDNers,
Let me have your thoughts too

DB table for function module extractor

I would really appreciate any comment or suggestion about this topic: Function module based extraction. I opened this thread on the BC & Extractors forum, but unfortunately none has given me any feedback yet.
Thanks & Regards, Davide

So none see any advantage with storing the extracted data in a materialized DB table, before transmitting the records to BW. Can I infer it's probably not a good idea wasting time with an additional massive write operation?
Cheers, Davide

Enhanced function module not working

Hi guys,
There's a requirement in my project to add new fields to the standard ESS > Personal Data iView and as well as add in additional validations along with the standard validations. I've thus asked an ABAP developer to
- add in the new fields to Hcmt_Bsp_Pa_xx_R0002 and
- make a duplicate of function module Hrxss_Per_Modify_P0002_xx to Z_Hrxss_Per_Modify_P0002_xx where my developer has coded in additional validations.
Then, I
- Import these into the Model classes
- Remapped the context nodes (ModifyInfoype) of FcPerPersonalxx to map to Z_Hrxss_Per_Modify_P0002_xx
- Did code change to method modifyRecord() in FcPerPersonalxx.
Result: The new fields are reflected. However, the additional validations don't work. The standard validations are working. Is there any filtering at Webdyn pro Java side that filters only certain msgs? Can anyone help pls?

Hi Zhenmin,
If I understood your problem correctly, you are getting framework validation messages instead of custom developed validation messages. The reason is this
Web Dynpro validations are of two types.
1. Framework handled 2. Custom developed.
Framework handled validations get more priority than the custom developed validations.

Siva

Function Module Extractor with Internal Table

Hi All,
I have a need to extract records from a complex SQL Statements, so I will be using different SQL Statements and merging the results in to a single internal table. In the function modules what will happen if I do not use cursor WITH HOLD option, (I know it maintains the cursor position) and what if I directly load into E_T_DATA from my internal table. How this will affect the datapackage size?
In the future I will have records beyond 1 million and I am concerned to send all the 1 million record in one package rather than multiple packages during extraction.
Please give a solution if you have come acroos this kind of situation with your development.
Thanks,
Alex.

Alex,
I do not see why the complexity of ABAP statements should make you change the data processing logic proposed by SAP by way of the sample Function module.
It appears to me that you are changing something knowing fully well its implications and then trying to find a solution for it.
Good Luck!
Mathew.

Function Module Extractor

Hi All,
There is this function module which is used to extract values into BW. "FCIW_HIERARCHY_TRANSFER_CSIT"
I guess this is a standard SAP FM. I want to know if there are table names mentioned for extracting the Nodes of the hierarchies, in this code.
Pls respond.
