SAP® standard components
SmartExporter is able to use existing SAP® standard components (RFC_READ_TABLE) which are already installed on the SAP® system. To allow a data extraction in online mode SmartExporter will automatically switch to the SAP® standard components if it discovers that the specific SmartExporter SAP® components or the ZAUDICZ_RFC_READ_TABLE RFC module are not implemented or SmartExporter has no access to these components.
Note that certain SmartExporter functionalities are not available when you are using the SAP® standard components.

Note:
There are some limitations of the SmartExporter functionality when you are using the SAP® standard components. Not all SmartExporter functionality will be available. You will be notified by specific icons in the SmartExporter user interface that certain features are not accessible. Additionally, the use of SAP® standard components comes along with some limitations regarding the data to be extracted.
If you want to use the whole scope of functionalities SmartExporter offers and you are eager to avoid incorrect values in the data extracted or you do not accept the limited availability of data, it is highly recommended to use SmartExporter with the specific SmartExporter SAP® components.
