Generic Extraction-example

Question

hello EXPERTS
I am trying to give one presentation about 'Generic Extraction using View'...I know how to explain the process.But as I donot have project experience,I have never worked with Generic Extraction.
Can any one give an example where they used generic extraction(by view) on SAP standard tables.Its enough if you can mention the fields you used and from which tables you took these fields?
Thanks
