Maintaining Communication Structures with Direct Updating in SAP BW BI

Use

Assign the fields of a DataSource to the corresponding InfoObjects of the InfoSource. Although the DataSource contains source system fields that belong together, you can combine fields that logically belong together from several DataSources, from various source systems in the communication structure.

Prerequisites

You have created an InfoSource with direct updating. You have assigned a source system and a data source to it.

Procedure

After you have assigned the source system, you automatically reach the transfer structure maintenance.

Maintain the

transfer structure and the transfer rules in the lower half of the screen.

In the upper half of the screen, you can view the communication structure. The system automatically generates this.

Depending on whether you have specified a DataSource for attributes or texts, the communication structure contains the attributes or text fields next to the corresponding InfoObject.

The upper half of the screen (the communication structure) is hidden if you have specified a DataSource for hierarchies to be transferred via IDoc. The communication structure is generated for hierarchies that are transferred using a PSA.
