Using the Additional Data Source “General”

Unlike the other Additional Data Sources, the Additional Data Source General is automatically included in the SmartExporter SAP® components version 8.0.0000 or higher.

However, note the following exception:

If the SmartExporter SAP® components were installed via the transport, no further installations need to be run.

But if the SmartExporter SAP® components were installed via the Add-On, the Additional Data Source General can also be used, however, with the exception of the generic report call. If you also want to use the generic report call, the Reports Add-On must be installed. See topic Deployment of the Reports Additional Data Source.

 

 

It is recommended to import the Data Requests which you can find in the SmartExporter SAP Components\DataSources\General\DataRequest folder of the SAP Components CD and to use them as a template as they already contain the required pre-defined filter conditions.

Each template contains a description of the specific fields and filter values of the data source in question.
