Editing the Follow-Up Action: Export
With the Export follow-up action, you can export data to the Reporting Agent with a Business Add-in (BAdI). You need the BAdI
- to use the data for an alert as a work item in a customer-specific workflow.
- to address ABAP programs you have written
The Business Add-In RSRA_ALERT allows you to communicate with the enhanced program by using enhancements in the customer namespace. You can find additional information underBAdI: Export of BW Alerts (RSRA_ALERT).
From the Parameters tab page you can edit the properties of the Export follow-up action.
You have already selected an exception and assigned it to the Export follow-up action. You can find additional information underDefining Exceptions Settings.
When you double-click on the assigned follow-up action, the Properties of the Follow Up Action screen area appears.
The procedure described underEditing Follow-Up Actions: Alert Monitor Entry includes the procedure for editing an alert text or a URL assigned to a specific alert for a resource.
You can find additional information underEditing Follow-Up Actions: Alert Monitor Entry in the following sections:
- Editing texts for an alert monitor entry on the level of individual alerts (exception cells)
- Editing texts for an alert monitor entry on the level of a query view
- Changing a URL for the alert monitor
Under Filter for Business Add-In, you can select an InfoProvider. Depending on the InfoProvider from the BW system chosen as a filter, the Business Add-In is implemented (seeBAdI: Export of BW Alerts (RSRA_ALERT) andParameter FLT_VAL). Input help is available.
By default, the InfoProvider is standard for the query sought in the background. With the special character "*", you can specify a generic filter value that can be set according to the entries in the database using different values.
Once you have defined the Reporting Agent setting, you have to assign it to a scheduling package for processing in the background. For more information seeProcessing a Scheduling Package.
