Hi SAPBILearner,
Genric Extraction Steps:
1) In R/3 side Create a Data source by use of RSO2 tcode
Select datasource type here, Give datasource name click create button
2) Specify description
Specify your table name
Choose the Application Component(like SD, MM, PP)
Click SAVE it takes to next screen
3) Choose the fields for visible and hidden
SAVE it.
Your datasource has been created
4) In RSA3 (Extract Checker) you can check your datasource it contains data or not
IN BW SIDE
1) First Replicate your datasource
2) Create InfoArea--> Info objects and all
3) Create InfoSource and assign this R/3 Datasource
