When performing an extraction with TRIGGER delta, you might want to have information about what was done with the record. This information includes:
- Operation type - INSERT / UPDATE / DELETE
- The timestamp of the operation
This is useful for example when extracting data into CSV files for next processing, e.g. read data from files and use them to update/delete records in a table.
This procedure affects:
SNP Glue™ table setup
- Follow the standard procedure for (Glue-2202) Create SNP Glue™ Table
- Add fields for operation type (data type - CHAR, length - 6) and operation timestamp (data element - TIMESTAMPL) in the Glue table. If you use data elements /DVD/GL_DBT_TRIGGER_OPERATION and /DVD/GL_DBT_TRG_OP_TIMESTAMPL, they will be detected automatically in the extractor field mapping.
Extractor setup
- Create a new (Deprecated) SAP Table to Storage Extractor and select (Deprecated) How To Set Delta Types. If you want to transfer also deleted records, open Delta Properties with the 'Tools' button (
) and check the checkbox 'Read deleted entries'.
- If data elements mentioned in step 2 of the Glue table setup were used, needed routines are automatically assigned after you save the extractor.
- To manually assign routines, click on the 'Rule Type' button (
) and select the appropriate routine for each field.
- Activate Extractor and proceed as usual.
