Definition

This indicator describes how a sentence in the delta procedure must be updated. Delta procedures are different in that they only support a partial amount of the six possible features. If a data source implements a Delta procedure that uses several features, the indicator component of the extractor structure must be entered in the data source as the reversal field (ROOSOURCE-INVFIELD).

The six features mean the following:

' ': The record delivers an after image.

Carry over the status after a change or after insertion. The record can only be updated directly in the infocube if the corresponding before image exists in the request.

'X': The record delivers a before image.

Carrying over the status before a change or deletion.

All summarizable attributes of the record must be carried over with the reverse +/- sign. The responsibility of the +/- sign switch lies with the extractor (default) or can be carried out by API. In this case, the indicator 'field Inverted with Reversal' in the DataSource for the corresponding field of the extractor structure.

In non-additive update of an ODS object, these records are ignored.

The before image is complementary to after image.

'A': The record delivers an additive image

Only the change and (for non-summarizable attributes) the status are carried over for summarizable attributes after the change or after creation. This record can replace an after image and a before image if there are no non-summarizable attributes or these are not changed. The record can be updated unrestricted in a InfoCube, but does not require an additive update in an ODS object.

'D': The record must be deleted.

Only the key is transferred. This record (and with it the DataSource) can only be updated in an ODS object.

'R': The record delivers a reverse image.

This record is equivalent to a before image as far as content is concerned.

The only difference is the update of an ODS object: An existing record with the same key is deleted.

'N': The record delivers a new image.

This record is equivalent to an after image without before image as far as content is concerned. A new image should be transferred instead of an after image if a record is created.

The new image is complementary to the reverse image.

In the table RODELTAM, it is defined which features a delta procedure uses (column UPDM_NIM, UPDM_BIM UPDM_AIM, UPDM_ADD UPDM_DEL and UPDM_RIM). The table must guarantee that only sensible combinations of the above-mentioned features are used in a delta procedure.

A DataSource that uses a delta procedure can only deliver features for the indicator in the extracted records that are specified in the delta procedure with the extraction in the Update Mode 'Delta'.
