Rules & Explanations

Original User requirements are available in the following document: BW requirements - Basic master data and Exchange rates for Anaplan F2G models

Flat files are generated using '.txt' extension and comma separator ','.

All extracted description is done using english language EN.

All generated files are stored in AL11 folder  /exploit/BW/Anaplan_outbound:

These are generated by OpenHubs located in InfoArea IA_FMCO_CO_CT_VIRTUAL:

Generated file's names and location are set up using logical file (Transaction FILE):

In order to generate header lines in flat files, an ABAP specific solution has been implemented in all extraction data flow.

Concerning this solution, the dedicated documentation is available : OpenHub for APD CSV File interface.docx
