Function documentationRemote Where-Used List

 

You use this Web Dynpro application (USMD_REMOTE_WHERE_USED) to check existing entity usage in a remote system. You can check the financial configuration of default entity type Account, and which configuration is used. This makes dependencies in the remote system transparent. The entity type Account is created using the BAdI implementation USMD_REMOTE_WHERE_USED.There are several implementation options available, for example, the default implementation using the remote function call module TABLE_ENTRIES_GET_VIA_RFC, Operational Data Providers (ODP), and SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search. You can also perform your own BAdI implementation. For more information about setting up the BAdI implementation, see Customizing for Master Data Governance under Start of the navigation path General Settings Next navigation step Data Quality and Search Next navigation step Business Add-Ins Next navigation step BAdI: Remote Where-Used List End of the navigation path.

Prerequisites

You have configured the remote system in Customizing for Data Replication under Start of the navigation path Define Custom Settings for Data Replication Next navigation step Define Technical Settings Next navigation step Define Technical Settings for Business Systems End of the navigation path and set the RFC destination column.

Note Note

Only the systems configured with the RFC destination column value will be considered by remote where-used list.

End of the note.
