In this step, you prepare the transfer of data for inspection plans from external systems into the SAP system.
The Customizing function available for this purpose (data-transfer workbench) supports all the single steps that can be standardized to transfer data.

Requirements

The inspection plan data in the external system exists in a form that is compatible with the data structure for inspection plans in the SAP system.

Recommendation

Read the documentation on the report RCPTRA01.

Activities

  1. Prepare transfer
    1. Generate transfer structure
      The SAP system creates table structure source descriptions for the data to be transferred (transfer structures) and writes them to a sequential file that you can use for the data agreement in the transfer program.
      Generate a sequential file with the transfer structures (F5 function in data transfer workbench). You can display the generated transfer structure (Shift + F7) and change the data fields (F6).
      Create the data agreements for this transfer structure in COBOL, C, PL/1 or ASSEMBLER languages (Shift + F7).
    2. Prepare transfer program
      Use the generated data agreements as the basis for creating a transfer program that writes the inspection plan data from the external data processing system to a sequential file. Batch input sessions can then be created from these sequential files to transfer the data to the SAP system.
  2. Prepare transfer data
    1. Create a sequential file using the inspection plan data from the external data processing system and make this data available to the SAP system.
    2. Enter the name of these sequential entry files in the following form: </path/name of sequential file>
    3. Create batch input sessions to execute the transfer program (F8).
  3. Perform data transfer
    1. Load the batch-input sessions (Ctrl + F1).
    2. Check the data that has been transferred to the SAP system.

Further notes

You can test the data transfer before transferring a large number of inspection plans to the SAP system. To do this, proceed as follows:

  • Create a model inspection plan in the SAP system.
  • Generate a sequential entry file (using the workbench function "Generate test data").
  • Create the corresponding batch-input session (F8).
  • Load this batch-input session in the foreground (Strg + F1), and check how the program runs.
  • Check the result.
