Question:
Hi!! I have to extract a text file from the cube content by job in background, but without to use an ABAP program.
Is it possible to save a variant (or similar) in the selection screen of the InfoCube Browser (Cont. InfoCube in the InfoCube maintenance)?
Otherwise do you know another way to download the cube content in a file?
Thanks in advance.
Answer:
OTHER WAY TO DO THIS WITH OUT USE AN ABAP PROGRAM IS USING A INFOSPOKE
IN TRANSACTION RSA1
MENU: TOOLS -> OPEN HUB SERVICE -> CREATE INFOSPOKE
I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.
Answer:
Hi Neo,
there are some possibilities:
a) Use OpenHub functionality. Prerequisite: Be a mysap.com customer, or customer on any other license model before 01.2002 (to be confirmed with SAP)
b) Use transaction RSCRM_BAPI to store query results into flat files. Prerequisite: Set "ODBO flag" for the query.
c) Create an ODS object of your file structure, create an update rule with additive update rules (according to your requirement of preaggregation) and use WS_DOWNLOAD or successor function modules to retrieve the data.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to come back to me.
Best regards,
Steen
