1 Business Scenario
On the upload of transactional data, you want to prevent the application of business rules for certain
criteria, e.g. a certain cost centre should be treated differently or the records affecting this cost centre
should not be processed at all (skipped on the transfer population of data targets).
In addition to implementing the criteria in the coding of a transformation routine, you also want to
provide information about what has happened to the administrator.
You can do so by writing messages to the monitor from within the transformation routine. These
messages (standard messages defined with transaction code SE91) are displayed in the Data Transfer
Process (DTP) monitor.

2 The Result
The user can check the monitor entries for this DTP after a data load. In our example we have chosen a
specific cost centre (cost centre ‘1000’) for which the processing of the record should be skipped. The DTP
monitor indicates that messages have been triggered for a certain number or records. Details on the
message can be obtained by further drilling-down on the monitor entry.

3 The Step By Step Solution

3.1 Create transformation routine

1. Create a transformation. Within the


maintenance of the transformation double-
click on a field, in the example the
characteristic “0COSTCENTER”.
In the ‘Rule details’ dialog choose the rule
type ‘Routine’.

2. Enter the source code (see Appendix for


source code example).
Please note that the field names of the
sample coding are not relevant (and will be
different in your scenario).

-2-
3.2 Load data into your InfoCube

1. Create a Data Transfer Process (DTP) to


update the InfoCube with the data from
the PSA.

Execute the DTP by including it in a process


chain or by direct execution from within
the DTP maintenance.

2. To see potential messages triggered in the


custom routine, please go to the monitor
for the DTP ( ).

Depending on whether you skip the


record, abort the whole DTP, or continue
with the processing without raising an
exception, the monitor entry might be
slightly different, e.g. ‘Error Handling’, etc.
Yet you should find a similar output as
shown on the screen shot.

3. Position on the monitor entry and select


the ‘Display for Error Records’ from the
context menu or press the icon
located in the next to the entry.

4. As a result you get a pop-up with all the
single messages displayed.
