R/3 Enhancement: Customer-Specific Tables

Use

The SAP Enhancement MYCAT02 allows you to transfer customer-specific tables from SAP R/3 to Offline Travel Expenses.
For example, you may want to use the contents of certain tables to complete customer-specific checks.

If you want to transfer data from SAP R/3 to Offline Travel Expenses, you must create tables with the same structures in both SAP R/3 as well as the Offline Repository for Offline Travel Expenses (Files ci_types.xml, ci_tables.xml).

The SAP enhancement MYCATS02 contains the following elements:

SAP_PERNR, SAP_LANGU

REFERENCE_TABLE
This element contains two fields:

table_name that contains the name of the table in the Offline Repository for Offline Travel Expenses.

ref_to_table, that contains the reference to the table in SAP R/3. You create this reference using Customer Exit MYCATS02.

The contents of the table are transferred to a customer-specific table in the Offline Repository (ci_tables.xml) for Offline Travel Expenses.

Define the table, according to the R/3 structure, in the Offline Repository for Offline Travel Expenses. You do this in files ci_types.xml and ci_tables.xml Types and a table.

Create a table in the SAP Enhancement MYCATS02 using command CREATE DATA. Generate a reference for this table using the field symbols. When you create the reference, use the table names from the Offline Repository.

Populate the table with the required data.
