Groupware inte- filtering for BP

Question

Hello,
For our groupware integration, we only want to send contact persons (category 1, role BUP001). Using the standard filtering for groupware, this is occuring in the MapBox.
We have about 14000 BPs but only 170 contact persons. For the moment, we send about 14000BP to the MapBOx, this is really inefficient.
We found oss note 683116 -Simple intell. distribution of customer data for Groupware but the potential criteria fields are not appropriate for our scenario.
Does somebody have another idee to make the filtering before sending to the MapBox?
Thanks and Regards,
Frédéric

Hey Fred,
- Change the classical part of the bdoc: add a Z*field to it with an appropriate length.
- Change the replication object to include the criteria field.
- Create publication/ subscription based on the new field.
--> Filling up the field can be done by adding a function to the flow context. This function can receive the bdoc's extended part & the classical part, so you can change the classical part based on the fields in the bdoc or in the DB. Put The function first in the flow context, so that it will be processed before the wrapper/mapper/RRR functions.
--> The field will not be visible in the bdoc itself (smw01), but it will be used in the data distribution.
Maybe it's possible to change the classical part in the APCEO event, but I'm not sure.
Grtz,
Michael.
ps. I did the same for condition integration towards XIF => works perfectly
