Q&A:

Q: How do you do this for tables with huge volume, BSEG and MSEG?

A: In SAP, BSEG is a table that stores line item data for financial transactions, while MSEG is a table that stores material-related document segment data. Both are standard tables in SAP R\3 ERP systems. 

Explanation

  • BSEG

The BSEG table stores the segment or item data for financial transactions in SAP. It's a cluster table, which means it references values from other tables, such as BSIK, BSAK, BSID, and BSAD. BSEG data can be used as a data source for other functions. 

  • MSEG

The MSEG table stores material-related document segment data in SAP R\3 ERP systems

Extracting data from SAP tables like BSEG (Accounting Document Segment) and MSEG (Material Document Segment)

Option 1: Using SAP SE16N/SE16 Transactions, creating a Join between BSEG & MSEG Tables

Option 2: Using a SAP ABAP Program, extract data from BSEG and MSEG Tables

 

Q: Why is temp space required for the extraction process while using SAP endpoints?

A: In brief When extracting data from SAP systems  temp space requirements: Intermediate Staging Large Volumes of Data, Applying Data Transformation, SAP-Specific Integration Requirements such as IDoc and RFC Buffering, Network and Endpoint Constraints, Data Integration and Parallelism

 

Q: Can we use a through filter in SAP endpoints?

A: Yes, you can use pass-through filters when extracting data from SAP using Qlik or Talend Cloud. Implementing them at the SAP endpoint level improves efficiency by reducing the data volume extracted and processed. Ensure proper configuration, test the filters, and monitor system performance for the best results
