SAP connectivity in Datastage EE

Post by satadru.kar »

Can anybody please guide me on SAP connectivity on datastage EE? Is there any way that we can extract or load data from SAP by using datastage px? I heard about a plug-in called " IDOC extract stage". Any document on that is really helpful for me.

Can anybody send me any document on "IDOC extract stage"? My mail -id is satadru.kar@gmail.com.
Thanks,
Satadru Kar

These plug-in stages are purchased separately from your vendor (the extra cost is due primarily to SAP licensing/certification charges). With them you get the usual PDF format documentation. Search the IBM web site for information about SAP connectivity, which is available both for SAP R/3 and SAP BW.

DataStage 8 comes with the following access via the SAP Packs (at an additional cost):

BAPI: (Staging Business API) loads from any source to BW.
OpenHub: extract data from BW.
SAP R/3 Pack
ABAP: (Advanced Business Application Processing) eliminates manual coding and provides change data capture for extracting data.
IDoc: IDoc extract interface retrieves IDoc metadata for loading bulk data into SAP.
BAPI: extract data by working through SAP business views.
