In addition to reading SAP tables, the dox42 SAP data source allows you to call data from BAPI/RFC modules, too.

Steps

  1. Select BAPI/RFC in the Read dropdown menu and enter the name of your BAPI/RFC  in the text field next to it.

    Note

    Both standard and custom BAPIs can be called.

  2. In the lower third of the window, you can choose between Table and Export Structure for Return. Enter the table name and the respective column names you want to read.

  3. The Import Parameters/Structures tab allows you to filter fields of your BAPI with specific values or other dox42 data sources.

  4. Define the structure of your input parameters as follows: Structurename.Parametername .
    In the image below, for example, DESTINATION_FROM.AIRPORTID is set.

  5. By selecting the Test button, dox42 connects to your SAP system and returns the respective data.

  6. Select OK.
