Data Transfer Using the Workbench (SAP Library

Data Transfer Using the Workbench

A project is used to group business objects together for transfer.

The sub-project is used to divide a project up. Precisely one business object type is assigned to each sub-project and this business object type is transferred in this sub-project.

In the run definition, you specify how the data of a sub-project is to be transferred, by creating tasks and specifying the files involved.

You can use a task to specify which program is to be executed and with which attributes.

Example In the task Load data using BAPI, you can specify which BAPI is called, which file the data to be loaded is read from, and how error handling is processed.

Prerequisites

You have decided which business objects your source data is to be transferred to and in what order.

You have decided which technique is to be used to transfer the business objects. You have created the programs, function modules, or BAPIs required for the various tasks (cleaning up, extracting, and mapping the data).

Customizing has been completed.

Procedure

Choose Tools -> Data Transfer Workbench.

Perform the following steps:

Organize the transfer in projects

Execute data transfer in runs
